Chapter 51: The Seal of Dignity and Inferiority
The rain in the wilderness did not stop, and it was even heavier. The gray rain connected the wilderness and the sky, as if the wilderness had been stretched infinitely.
Snuggled up to the window of a tall building inside Alik and watched the SUV slowly disappear into the rain.
She knew that in order to live better, Luo was leaving again. She also believed that Lowe would return in time as she had been.
She carried in her arms a small lamb, the poor creature that the chief had picked up from the wilderness. The body of the lamb did not seem to change in the slightest, not even the shaggy hair on its body did not grow by half a point.
At the time when the buggy finally disappeared into the rain of the wilderness, an internal meeting of the Cardivan family was going on in an ancient castle far away from the wilderness.
"Because of the delay of our allies, we are gradually losing the advantage we have gained with the blood of countless warriors, and if the Begu family does not fulfill their promise as soon as possible, the northern battlefield will be plunged into a long and protracted war! This will be a fatal disaster for us on the expedition! ”
The man who spoke was a middle-aged man in a white land combat suit, and the lifelike wolf head on the man's chest proved that he was a member of the Cardiven Iron Wolf Regiment, and his rank was very high.
"General Moddy, are you telling me that you have nothing you can do with those ice creatures? Or is the Cardivan family's Predator Wolf too weak to adapt to the raging snow of the ice field? ”
The patriarch of the Cardivan family, Murphy Cardivan's voice came out slowly, accompanied by the sound of roaring waves.
"I haven't lost faith, and the Predators have enough strength and confidence to stand firm on the new battlefield! But my dear brother, don't forget, the ice fields are no better than the wilderness, this is their home turf! Once dragged into the quagmire of a protracted war, I dare not guarantee which side the balance of victory will tip in the end! ”
The signal transmission system within the Cardivan family is so advanced that the slightest worry in the eyes of the other party is clearly transmitted to the mobile terminal screen of each participant.
"The Begu family is currently in the early stages of the change of scepter in the family, don't have too many illusions about the promise of support they have made anytime soon, my dear brother, General Maddy Kadivan."
Murphy Cardivan, who was still on vacation, was in a surprisingly bad mood, and he understood the complaints of the commander of the Northern Theater, that is, his brother. But he has not, and does not intend to, send more forces to the north anytime soon, and he must leave enough cards to deter opponents within and outside the family who always harbor unrealistic illusions.
But the northern battlefield is too important, and once Modi's iron-blooded wolf group is defeated, the entire Caddivon family, and even the entire wilderness, including the Begu family, will fall into great passivity.
That would be the havoc of the wilderness!
"Heine, when does the latest tryout for the family bootcamp start?"
Murphy frowned and thought, looking at the seemingly never-ending ocean in front of him.
"Half a month later, for three months, father."
Heine Cardivan is Murphy's eldest daughter and the older sister of Heyman and Heidi, who is mainly responsible for the training camp for the family's internal trials, and the cadets who graduated from the training camp are also the backbone of various battlefields.
"In this trial, your younger brother Heyman will also be arranged, and those who are attached to the family can also sign up."
"Yes, Father!"
Heine replied briefly, and said no more.
"Modi, I'll send you some abilities from other battlefields, and you must ensure that you get phased results in the northern battlefield as soon as possible! You should know what a victory in the Northern Battlefield means to the family! ”
"I need to unlock at least twenty Sleepers to make sure I can give you the victory you want, Patriarch! Moreover, I need a lot of high-level genetic potions to supplement the battle sequence of the wolf group's constant attrition! ”
General Modi's words were stiff, this was his usual style, the iron-blooded general on the battlefield was not like those members who stayed in the family all day, he needed to be fully prepared for the honor and disgrace of the entire family.
"I'll give you enough Sleeper Awakening Privileges, and as for the genetic potions you need, Heidi should be pretty much ready."
The meeting was over, but Murphy was still pondering.
It may be necessary to make a trip to the Begu family's manor in person, and the rulers of the Cardivan family have finally decided on their own itinerary.
Medusa returned to the city of Yusai, and Heidi and Lowe returned to the Cardivan family's research base in the wilderness.
Since he agreed to Heidi and received enough compensation, Luo cooperated with Heidi's request as promised.
"You can choose your preferred room here or go out into the wilderness. Personally, I recommend staying in your room, you can't get used to the radiation of the wilderness right now, and those wilderness creatures that aren't deadly in the first place are likely to kill you. ”
After doing dozens of tests and drawing enough blood and body fluids from Lowe, Heidi coldly dropped a sentence and turned and walked out.
There will be some tests to follow, but at least for today, Lowe is idle.
He had never been so idle as he was today, so much so that Luo, who had long been accustomed to killing and surviving in the wilderness, felt a little uncomfortable.
The entire H913 colony has been relocated to Alik, and Lowe and his companions at least don't have to worry about food and drinking water. But compared to the research base of the Cardivan family, Alik still seems a little shabby.
Lowe followed Heidi's advice and did not leave the research base. Compared to the last time he was hunted down by the Cadivon family, this time the instinctive ability was eliminated, and he was seriously injured.
A few days ago, he was struggling to survive from the Cardivan family, but now he is hiding in the Cardivan family research base like a sheltered wolf in the wilderness.
Luo couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and a little empty.
Luo didn't choose his own room to live in, he wanted to take advantage of this rare opportunity to quickly familiarize himself with this research base with various rooms.
The switch between friend and foe is unknowable, and he's not sure if he'll be on the opposite side of the Cardiven family again.
Get to know your opponent a little better, and you'll have a slight head start in the face of disasters that may befall you at any time.
Lowe had no interest in the strange instruments that were filled with all sorts of strange shapes, and he couldn't have asked Heidi about them. As for the tube of blue liquid that was placed in the room and unguarded, Luo glanced at it and never looked at it again.
He believed that everything he was doing here was in Heidi's sights, and he didn't want to ruin the delicate partnership between the two, and Lowe wasn't as eager to demand high-level Gene Unlocking Potions as he used to be.
Lowe walked into a room that was extremely unfamiliar to him.
The room was large, but not spacious, because it was filled with rows of bookshelves with neatly arranged stacks of books.
Lowe didn't know much to read, and this was the credit of the Colosseum caretaker Old Pat, who often regarded young Lo as his grandson who could no longer remember what he looked like, and teaching his grandson to read was one of the few good habits of old Pat in the old days.
Illiteracy is also the main reason why members of large families like Heyman think that the people of the wilderness are inferior.
When you're busy racking your brains all day about how to survive, literacy becomes a luxury and a delusion.
The most basic rights of the old era have become the biggest label for the difference between dignity and inferiority in the new era.
That's why Lo walked into this room. He doesn't intend to fit into the so-called high society, but he doesn't want to be branded as inferior from birth, just like himself.
There were quite a few people in the room, mostly base guards and researchers who didn't smile like Heidi.
In terms of employee welfare, the Cardivan family has done a relatively good job.
For the wilderness, the right to read is definitely a rare perk!
This was one of the reasons why Lowe agreed with the Chieftain to establish the Academy, even though he was not optimistic about the Chief's great plans.
Lowe was in the middle of the rows of books that had been read I don't know how many times, looking at the people who passed by him from time to time, or sat quietly by the shelves and read, and began to feel a little out of place in the world.
It was a completely different wilderness from Lowe's familiar wilderness, there seemed to be no mutation, no pervasive danger, no killing and being killed.
This is the place to be!
As Yi's only support, as a fatherly existence, Luo began to plan for Yi's future.
Luo left this place that made him attached and strange, and found a room to live in.
The instinct in his body had fallen asleep again, and the fast-spinning gene chain had returned to its normal rhythm, but the dark gene fragment representing the mutation energy of the amoeba mutant worm's body was still adhered to the surface of the gene chain.
It has not fallen off or re-embedded.
Luo slowly lowered his head and stared at his right hand.
The slender and white fingers were like the white snow of spring, slowly twisting and slowly elongating under Luo's gaze, and finally turned into the shape of the sharp wolf claws of the mutant wolf in the wilderness.
The ability to shape the body is still there, but it seems to be a little jerky, and it is no longer as fluid and freewheeling as it once was.
Luo lightly cut a shallow wound on his left arm with his already extremely sharp fingers.
Bright red blood dripped onto the smooth floor of the room, and puffs of green smoke cleared, and the hard floor had corroded into a deep hole.
The scratches on the arm disappeared in a short time, and the arm was once again smooth again, leaving no scars.
The toxin ability is still there, and the self-healing ability is not gone.
The Cardivan family clearly follows the fine tradition of the old era, and the research base built on the wilderness also takes into account the problem of daylight. The room where Luo was located had a large window. Through the pale yellow curtains, you can see the gray-white wilderness outside the window, and the miserable white sun above the wilderness.
Lowe slowly opened the window, sticking his fingertips out of the window, exposing himself to the wilderness sun.
The sudden radiant rain had stopped, and the wilderness after the rain was more refreshing, and the fishy sweet smell that permeated the whole wilderness was much lighter.
Lowe's gaze fell on the wilderness, sweeping across the gray-white earth.
There were no moving objects in sight, and the mysterious wilderness seemed much quieter.
A hint of bitterness appeared at the corners of his mouth.
The burning sensation on his fingertips made Luo seem to go back to the time when he first remembered.
The toxin resistance is gone, and Lo has lost his capital to wander the wilderness, where the radiant sunlight kills him.
