Chapter Sixty-Seven: A New New Humanity
The few people who are still in the base are all mutating, and they have all lost their minds and are in a state of madness. But in the milky white light, they are still sitting quietly, but they are all howling non-stop, interpreting the changes of human beings on the high road in the long night. Zhong was the most painful person, he felt like his stomach was burning, and he wanted to vomit above and pull on the bottom. I ate half of the food in my hand, and I wanted to fill my empty stomach again. So, when he finished his own, he went and ate the rest of Jie, and then roses, and electricity, and thunder... Eat, vomit, eat, pull, and repeat. Eventually, everyone had eaten up the rest of the food, and he felt better. But still want to eat, preferably meat. Without thinking about it, he bit the wrist next to Jie, and a trace of blood with a metallic smell swallowed into his stomach, and the uncomfortable feeling all over his body disappeared a little. Then there is the thunder on the other side, the rose and electricity a little farther away, the wine a little farther away...
Almost everyone had been bitten by the bell on the wrist, and he stopped vomiting and diarrhea. Until the morning sun rose again, several people were still sitting around the two robots, and the howls were gone. Everyone was in a state of slumber, and the bits of multicolored light of the robot turned into a white light invisible to the naked eye. After a night of walking in the trees, they returned. Now these people are not much different from the trees, their bodies are all wet, and their clothes are almost torn to the point of strips of cloth. Everyone was in good spirits and bouncing all the way back to the base.
"Hey, what's the ceremony?" Still far away, Zhen looked at the few people sitting around and asked.
"No, we're all atheists." Worm said.
"I think they're collectively mutated."
"Tree, it's impossible, how good it is to be a normal human being." Kite said incredulously.
"Zhong, it's not true, is it?" Steam asked.
The distance of more than ten or twenty meters is the matter of a few jumps of the tree, but these people have come to the front, and Zhong and the others still sit around the two robots without any reaction. The robot is also regular and dull releasing light. Shui looked at the two square robots and walked into the circle curiously, wanting to move them.
"Whew... Water, what are you doing? Give me back right away. The tree howled and commanded in the distance.
"Whew, where did those two robots get the antiques, can't you look at them?" The water howled shortly, very aggrieved.
"Whew... It's two antique robots from a hundred years ago, but it's something that can restrain the lava bug virus, do you feel that kind of warm light, that is the existence that can shorten the pain of mutation? Get out of here if you understand it! The tree was still huge and stood in the middle of them and howled.
"Ahh Water, you come out. Yun also howled briefly.
It can be seen that the tree can still deter the existence of other mutants. And these still had no reaction to Zhong and a few people, and a few people sat quietly around, soothing in the white light, to complete the process of human transformation. Occasionally, Zhong woke up a few times without purpose, looked at this and that with a dull expression, and poked and poked and po In this way, almost a day, the robot tirelessly released light to scan several people around it. Eventually, as night fell, the light it released dimmed. The scattered points of light under the refraction of the sunset faintly radiate colorful colors, which is a bit illusory.
"Oops, energy block?" The trees howled.
"Trees, what, aren't they solar-powered?"
"No, they're gem-sustaining robots."
"What are you doing here? Go find it. ”
"What are you in a hurry, don't think I don't know, I'm leaving, you still want to go over and play with those two robots, right?" The tree howled in the distance.
"Isn't it fun, can't you look at it?"
"No, if you move them, Zhong and the others will probably become cripples who only know how to eat, just like you. You all know about the ring height, right? ”
"Tree, you look down on people, aren't we all survivors of ring heights, who doesn't know this. We also formed a team of three with Den, and went out to find something? Iron legs, do you remember? Qingfeng asked.
"I don't know, have we been out? Ahh ”
"And the three of you, who once cultivated small seedlings, and said that we should eat the purest green vegetables, what about vegetables?" The trees howled and asked about the water, the clouds, the fog.
"No, what are vegetables, how can insects be delicious. Ahhh Woohoo woohoo. The three of them howled almost together.
"Tree, don't try, they've forgotten all about the past, leaving the light of those two robots, the lava virus has almost destroyed their nervous system. Whether it can be recovered or not is a question, such mutants really returned to human society, and they must have been wiped out. Zhen said as he stood with the tree and howled. ”
"Tree, we had robots back then, but we couldn't use them properly, otherwise, you wouldn't be what you are now." The worm also said.
"What it looks like, it's just a little ugly, I willing, jump farther than you, run faster than you. Woohoo, woohoo. The tree howled merrily.
A night passed like this, and the trees, earthquakes, and insects never slept guarding the clock. They are also slowly changing in the night. The robot's light has dimmed, and the coverage area is much smaller. As the morning sun rose again, Zhong and the others finally woke up.
"Ahh How did you all become like that? A scream from the bell woke everyone up.
"Bell, calm, calm, you're all mutated." The tree was reminded in time.
"Mutated? We've all mutated. It's all like this. How is it different from you and them? ”
Now everyone has mutated, but they are divided into several camps. The tree is undoubtedly the ugliest and strongest one, followed by the earthquake and the worm, which is smaller than the tree, and then the few people who remain in the base. His body had skyrocketed, his head was ridiculously big, his limbs were thick and his clothes were torn, and now he was almost naked. Finally, there were a few people around Zhong, who had not changed much, their ears were pointed and protruding on both sides of their heads, their hair was very long, and their hands and feet had sharp nails...... Although it has changed slightly from the original human appearance, you can still see the foundation of human beings. Only Zhong hasn't changed much, and he still looks like a person. Just looking at it, he is strong and handsome, and his wisdom is better than before.
"Zhong, you're still so handsome, I love you!" Jie hurriedly said after she woke up.
"Rest the food, my old man is about to be jealous of you. Clean, but it's okay, and you're going to make us coffee. Ray said as he opened his eyes.
"Lei, you're still an old man, you can't pretend to be young this time. Your beard can be braided. ”
"Wine, you are the same, I used to think you were a young man, but now I see that you are also an uncle. What kind of lava virus, isn't it just to change us back to the way we were? ”
"Lei Lao, it has also made us stronger, and I only now feel worthy of the code name of electricity." As he spoke, he almost rushed to the buffer section of the ring road, and ran back as soon as the words fell.
"Hey, Rose, why don't you speak, do the previous promises still count?" Denki asked, returning to Rose.
"Count, nasty stinky man." Rose kept looking at the electricity, but the anger on her face was delighted.
"Hey, it's so unfair, why are we the only ones who have changed, but Zhong hasn't changed much?" Lei then looked at Zhong and teased.
"Whew, yes, Zhong, why haven't you changed anywhere?" The tree giant stood in front of the bell and asked.
"It's changed, I promise not to jump slower than you, do you dare to compare with me." Zhong didn't show any weakness in his proposal, but his eyes glanced at the robot.
"Compare and compare, you all wait well, see who comes back first, me and Zhong, woo......"
"Shock, Rose, Thunder, you take a good look at the robot, Jie, you guys also take care of them over there, I'll go with the tree and come back." Zhong Zhengse commanded. Then the two of them jumped with the tree, and the other ran away from everyone's sight.
"Zhong, are you going back to the lava village to get the robot's energy gem? I can go by myself, you still don't trust me, don't you? The tree jumped hard, but couldn't pull the bell and asked.
"Tree, one more person is one more security. Besides, I can't evaluate my own ability, so I'm the best partner and rely on you. Zhong said.
"Well, I love to hear that, hey, I don't feel the lava erupting, how can this place be withdrawn from a long distance." After a short while, Zhong Heshu came to the area where the protective mesh belt was cut, and looked at the bottomless ravine tree in front of him and asked.
"The tree, the ring height not only binds the turbulent earth, but also reintegrates and plans it, this is the release point of the lava, and of course it releases the turbulent changes in the interior of the earth every day. The ring is high and cracked, and the frequency of commotion here is also large, which is a normal thing. ”
"Yes, Zhong, you are still the wisest of us. I jumped over, don't be reckless, I'll catch you up if I fall, and I'll delay your work in vain. The tree took a deep breath and jumped over, landing on the path built by the robot over there, looking back at the clock.
I saw that the bell ran on the ring height, and flew up the ravine, and then after a few virtual jumps in the air, the man landed firmly behind the tree.
"Well, what kind of work?"
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get the energy gem, the robot can't wait to shut down."
