Chapter 59: Harnessing Instinct
Lowe seemed to be back in the mob when he first became conscious, weak, sleepy, and full of fear.
This is the result of being exposed to intense rays for a long time, and the cells under his skin have become eerily elongated, like swordfish trapped in fishing nets, waiting to die.
The white and delicate skin of his whole body had appeared with countless thin dark spots, and began to emit the characteristic smell of mutant tissue. His black hair was also a burnt yellow, as if it had been drained of all the moisture inside.
But Lowe still sat there, quietly waiting, waiting for an instinctive awakening.
He'd been sitting here for two whole days, mutations had begun to appear on his skin, but the toxin resistance he wanted hadn't yet appeared, and he hadn't even reacted instinctively.
Is the radiation intensity not enough? Isn't the radiation here enough for instinct to become aware of fear?
Lowe looked at the stairs that led to the fourth floor.
There seems to be a sun emitting radiation rays on the fourth floor, go up to the fourth floor to bathe in more intense rays, forcing instinct to wake up from its slumber!
Luo held his hand on the wall on the side of the stairs on the fourth floor and slowly stood up.
There are some things that cannot be crossed, otherwise only death awaits you! It's like the stairs in front of you, and the skin on your body that seems to have begun to mutate, but is still pliable and elastic.
Luo suddenly stretched out his hands, grabbed his ribs under his chest, and tore them fiercely!
His entire chest had been torn open by him, and within the bloody rift was a beating bright red heart.
Instinctively not feeling a mortal threat, he exposed his heart directly to radiation and woke it up!
Either live with me or die with you!
As the intense radiation shone through the torn chest onto Luo's heart, his bright red heart gradually turned dark red, and the beating rate increased rapidly, and streams of blood flowed back to the heart so quickly that it seemed to envelop the entire heart.
Isn't that enough?
Lowe's hair had turned gray, but his eyes were still deep and bright.
The fingers of his slender right hand slowly moved down the torn tear in his chest, and as the heart-rending pain spread throughout his body, his entire ribcage was sliced open.
The pink in the chest cavity faded like a tide, covered by the pale pale of the wilderness, and the pinprick pain gradually disappeared, and all the organs in Luo's chest cavity had lost their color.
The jagged section of the tear on his chest began to rapidly grow clusters of tender flesh buds, which spread wildly, covering the long tear in a moment.
Luo knew that under the huge threat of death, it was not only the ability to resist the toxin that awakened with his instinct, but also the super self-healing ability that he once had.
Instinct is used to dancing on the edge of life and death, and Luo is gradually learning to harness it.
As the sun in the wilderness shone its first rays, Lowe stepped through the gates of the Cardivan family research base and saw Heidi, who was still cold-faced.
Heidi was not surprised that Lo had really readjusted to the radiation of the wilderness in a short period of time, and if he could not even withstand the test of the wilderness, he would not be qualified to continue to survive in the wilderness.
Heidi didn't take Lo out of the wilderness, but went deeper into the wilderness, returning to the small mob that had dissected the sixth-order dependents of the Reven hunter Sean.
Heidi's previous expedition to the mob was interrupted by Sian's attaché Nigel, who paid with his life for his offense and even his own boss.
Heidi had seen the missionary mob chief in Alik, and she didn't think that Lowe would allow her to take the mob leader that interested her so much, and she didn't want to break with Lo, who still had a lot of research value.
For example, Lona's cells that have survived for half a century are something Heidi wants to figure out, even though Lowe's secret is more than that.
But to explore the secrets, you always have to come one by one, and Heidi has enough patience and enough confidence.
"The Cadivin family seems to have a special penchant for wilderness mobs."
Luo took the rare initiative to speak.
"I'm more interested in the chief of Alik, would you like to give him to me?"
Heidi had placed the small metal box in her arms on the sand of the wilderness, and bowed her head in retort.
Lowe was not in the habit of arguing with women, so he chose to remain silent.
"You should also have doubts about these people of yours, whether they are self-conscious or not."
Heidi's metal box contained all sorts of strange little things, and Lowe only recognized the silver metal balls that contained hundreds in one of the clear bottles.
Devourer Generation.
"You've always carried these things with you?"
Lowe wanted to know more about Heidi. After all, he wasn't sure when the delicate relationship between the two would end.
The more you know about your opponents, the more sure you are of victory.
But this truth, which Lowe had always regarded as the rule of conduct in the wilderness, seemed to be broken by Heidi. The more he got to know Heidi, the more he felt that he was not sure of defeating him.
He even had the idea of never being an enemy of this woman.
"I'm not used to traveling with guards, and I don't have any dependents other than you. In order to reduce some trouble, I can only work myself, after all, I am not too ugly, and there are a little too many males in the wilderness who are easy to estrus. ”
Heidi didn't use her Devourer, but calmly answered the question of her only Dependent, and pulled out a vial from the metal case.
"Psychic power is a special ability, from low-level mind-reading techniques, to high-level psychic control, and even the legendary ultimate ability, known as the prophecy of the "oracle", can be classified as spiritual power. ”
Heidi dropped the liquid from the vial onto the palm of her hand and gently rubbed it a few times.
"And the psychic chains ability you chose, which is also a spiritual ability. Do you have someone you particularly care about? That fifteenth-order mercenary captain? ”
Heidi spread her palms and waved at the mob not far away, then stood up and glanced at the silent Lowe.
"Alright, now go pick an older one and carry it over!"
Heidi reached out and pointed at the mob that seemed to be quieting a little, and commanded Lowe.
She said "carry it", not "grab it".
Lo really carried a mob back, and it was quite efficient.
The whole small mob wave, all the mobs were still there, like ancient sculptures, at Luo's pick.
Lowe's assessment of the strength of the cold cleaner in front of him, who had made Eris far away, go up another level.
This is a wilderness mob of 100 people, a wilderness locust tide-like existence, in front of Heidi, it is like this.
Such a child's play!
Heidi stopped talking, and she went about her work, the small blade in her hand having already sliced open the head of the old mob that had been laid on the ground.
The bloody work of peeling human brains alive seems to have become an elegant art in her hands, full of inexplicable beauty.
Heidi had been busy for a few minutes, but she had studied the mob's skull and put it back in and stitched it up.
"Now, carry it back."
Lowe came with Heidi this time, just to be a porter.
What rank is she? Dominate? Or is it a being higher than the Juggernaut?
No one had ever told Lo what would happen after unlocking more than twenty pairs of genetic sequences, and Lo never cared.
That is still far enough away from Luo, who has only unlocked three pairs of genetic sequences.
But the wilderness where Lo and Heidi were located was not far from Alex's base, and Lowe only needed to run for a short time to see Alik crouching on the wilderness like a mutant wolf underage.
Before entering Alik, the first thing he saw were the heavy land tanks emblazoned with the Alik base logo, as well as the large delivery trucks full of the inhabitants of the settlement.
This is the inhabitants of the gathering place that Alik went to the gathering place of the ruined city to pick out, and Heber has enough patience to pick out those who have mutated tissue on or within their bodies.
Panis didn't give up on the poor people who had been invaded by the mutant group, and Alik had a special quarantine vehicle to transport them.
Sean's hermetically sealed mob transporter that Lowe once called a "cage."
Those who already have mutated groups will be sent to the Chief, where they will be taught and nurtured by the Chief, along with those of their kind from the H913 colony, until they recover or die.
The chief from the Wilderness Mob is not afraid of being infected, and he seems to have the same toxin resistance as Lowe. And often by the chief's side, patiently listening to the chief's chatter, he was not infected.
