Chapter Eighty-Eight: The So-Called Humans
In the noisy Internet café at night, the sound of mouse and keyboard occupies the entire space, and a few profanity words burst out of the mouths of those players from time to time.
And in such a noisy environment, there are still corners that are surprisingly quiet.
The system and Lin Ling sat on the same sofa, the former curled up in the blanket to avoid the sight of others, and the latter leaned on the waist pillow to browse with virtual information.
[Host, 20% of the organism is human genes.] 】
[Contains a weak inactive viral spore reaction in the body.] 】
[According to the genetic code, it can be determined that this is ......]
[Infected human descendants.] 】
The system hesitated to say the answer, while observing Lin Ling's expression.
This time it did not see any emotion in the latter's face.
The not-so-bright lights in the Internet café shone on Lin Ling's face, setting off her cold look more and more obviously.
After the initial shock, Lin Ling quickly fell into a composure.
It was as if everything was expected.
"Sure enough, I shouldn't expect the world to be so stable......"
Looking at the pile of information on the screen, she rubbed her eyebrows through the fur on the wolf's head, and a trace of tiredness flashed in her slightly closed eyes.
I thought it was a peaceful world, but I didn't expect that there were still signs of infection.
It's really complicated.
[I can't say that......]
[In fact, these creatures no longer have the ability to infect, and even the most basic enhancement functions have been significantly degraded, and they cannot pose a danger to the world at all.] 】
The system looked at the calf where Lin Ling had been bitten.
The black fur is intact, and the faint tooth marks make the hair dimpled, but the inner cortex is not damaged in the slightest, and at most a shallow mark remains on it.
In this way, these seemingly terrifying creatures are indeed quite weak, and even the sweeping master can easily knock them to the ground.
There is still a gap with the virus monster that Lin Ling has seen.
In order to distinguish them from the anomalous creatures in her own world, Lin Ling decided to name these monsters Virus Monsters.
Although she herself can't tell if the monsters in these mission worlds are the same species, as long as she knows that they are all caused by virus spores......
"But there's no denying that there's something wrong with this world, right?"
Waving the virtual data away, Lin Ling turned her head and picked up the blanket to look at the system.
[This is true...... It can't be denied. 】
[But it's true that these monsters don't cause much harm.] 】
[At most, it's a little annoying like an ordinary everyday disaster.] 】
"Like a mouse?"
[More like a combination of locust plague and bird plague.] 】
In order to explain more vividly, the system took the initiative to put some videos of this world in front of Linling's eyes.
For example, the streets are full of slime, and the gnawed crops, and all kinds of terrible and indescribable scenery.
Looking at those scenes like huskies demolishing their homes, Lin Ling subconsciously leaned back.
Even through the screen, she could imagine the horror smell.
Okay, now confirmed, these creatures are definitely not the same kind as the monsters of the first two worlds.
It's a shame.
[I think maybe we can start from these creatures to find out the reason for the extinction of human civilization.] 】
"Isn't that nonsense?"
Lin Ling rolled her eyes and covered the system with a blanket.
Twenty percent of the results speak for themselves.
"But now...... Where do you start? ”
On the virtual paper in front of her, one was labeled "Human Mythology", while the other read "Hairless Beast".
Either way, gathering information can take a long time.
Is it a two-line proceeding?
She touched the wolf's ears on the top of her head, pondering the feasibility of this solution with the soft touch of her fingertips.
[Okay, okay, host, don't think about it so much, hurry up and rest. 】
The system moved in the blanket, leaning out half of its body and quietly staring at Linling.
Seeing that Lin Ling was immersed in thought and did not react, it simply popped up the window showing time in front of Lin Ling's eyes, interrupting the latter's contemplation.
【Sleep!】 】
Lin Ling glanced at the system, looked at the little guy's serious face, shrugged her shoulders, closed the curtain and lay flat on the sofa.
Even when you close your eyes, the thoughts in your head never stop.
The night at the Internet café was as noisy as the previous days.
Early in the morning, Lin Ling put on her boots and prepared to go out.
"Yo, little A-ling, you got up early."
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw Boss Xiong standing at the door smoking a cigarette.
She was a little confused, "Why don't you go in and smoke?" ”
"The young ones are sleeping, and now the smoke will choke on them." Xiong Tai smiled, his fat cheeks shaking with the smile.
Listening to his words, Lin Ling looked back at the Internet café and saw that the smoke still hadn't dispersed.
Even though her sense of smell is not bright, she can still smell the smell of smoke piled up inside, so she can't understand Boss Xiong's behavior.
Sure enough, good old people always have strange attachments in some aspects......
Eventually, she didn't say anything more and walked in the direction of the library.
The early morning fog fills the streets, and there are busy figures shuttling in and out.
Passing bus stops are also full of tall and short non-human intelligent life.
And in this quiet environment, there is still a strange creature hiding in the corner.
With a "clang", the trash can was directly overturned by a deformed monster, and it grabbed handfuls of dirty waste from the garbage heap with its human-like limbs and stuffed it into its mouth.
This was followed by the scolding of the cleaners.
Lin Ling passed by and shook her head at this scene.
But before she could leave, the monster that raised its head stared straight at her, even if the garbage in its mouth slipped to the ground.
【…… Host. 】
Unlike Lin Ling, who was thinking about things, the system that had been observing the surroundings noticed this scene for the first time.
When Lin Ling turned around, she saw the monster with the disgusting liquid stained with claws rushing towards her.
Her face changed slightly, and she turned and ran.
Even if she is not afraid of heaven and earth, she is still afraid of disgusting things after all.
Because of the physical disparity between the two, the distance was quickly widened.
"It's kind of weird."
Finally running safely to the library, Lin Ling walked into the historical area and looked at the rows of books but did not act.
Her mind was thinking about what had just happened.
"I think it's a little strange about the system, I remember yesterday I seemed to be the only "person" who was attacked, right? ”
Thinking of the scene at that time, it seemed that she was alone in the so-called hairless beast and bit her calf.
The other "people", even if they stand still, are not heeded by the hairless beast, and will even be avoided by it.
The same is true today.
Even if the cleaners went to chase after them, there was no hairless beast to fight back.
On the contrary, she was a passer-by who happened to pass by and became a target for no reason.
Is...... It's weird enough.
