Chapter 048: Speak
Xu Jing's mind is now full of dazedness, it was originally just a temporary bad taste, but he inexplicably recognized a son.
He looked at himself, and although he didn't know the exact age of his current body, he could roughly tell that he was over fifteen years old and under twenty years old from the comparison with other orangutans.
At this age, as Caesar's father, it is also reasonable.
Add to that what he said, and it's no wonder that Caesar believed it.
Seeing the excitement of Caesar jumping up and down in the cage, and the joy and admiration in his eyes when he looked at it, Xu Jing really couldn't bear to tell the other party that it was actually a joke.
"Forget it, so be it."
Anyway, there was no harm, he simply made the mistake and established the relationship between the two parties.
In the next few days, all the orangutans learned that Caesar was Xu Jing's son, and they all quickly accepted Caesar, allowing him to integrate into the group without any twists and turns.
Xu Jing still goes out every night, of course, he still takes Caesar with him now, and Will's house is where they must go once a night.
"Let's go."
After finding that there was still no ALZ-113 in the refrigerator, Xu Jing went upstairs and pulled Caesar, who was standing in front of Will's bed and looking at the other party in a daze.
"I ......"
Caesar wanted to say something, but shook his head again, put down his hand dejectedly, and after taking a deep look at the sleeping Will and his girlfriend Caroline, he followed Xu Jing and left the house lightly.
When he returned to the shelter, he crouched in the corner in a depressed mood, his face full of struggle.
Xu Jing didn't persuade him, in fact, he didn't need to do anything more.
The next morning, Doug approached Caesar's cage and opened the fence leading to the top, while Caesar's familiar call could be heard outside the enclosure.
It was Will and Caroline who came.
As soon as Caesar heard their call, he immediately climbed up in surprise and, under Doug's guidance, ran in the direction of the visitation room.
Xu Jing faintly heard Caesar's excited roar in his ears.
But it didn't take long for the sound to fade away.
About ten minutes later, Caesar hissed with despair and quickly returned to the cage.
He was very emotional, roared wildly, picked up the clothes that had been placed in the corner, and vigorously wiped the window pattern off the wall.
"This world belongs to human beings, as an orangutan, you hurt someone, no matter what effort Will makes, it can't actually change anything, and the judge won't let you go out again."
Xu Jing patted the cage and told Caesar the truth.
Caesar closed his eyes in pain, recalling the conversation he had just had with Will, and although he had sworn to take him home, it was clear that his helpless look would not change anything.
"Dad, I get ......"
In fact, he has long liked this feeling of freedom in his actions every night in the past few days, but because of Will's eight years of nurturing affection for him, it is difficult for him to let go.
And now, Caesar has finally made a decision, he wants to pursue his own scarlet life, return to the forest, and establish their own home with Xu Jing.
……
Another few days passed.
Xu Jing and Caesar came to Will's house as usual.
When you open the refrigerator, the first thing that catches your eye is three metal cans that look like small sprays.
"It's finally here."
Slightly excited, he reached out and took one out.
The lid is opened and gently pressed as if using an insecticide.
呲~!
A pungent mist of gas erupted from the top, filling the air.
Caesar leaned over and sniffed vigorously, then turned his face and shook his head at Xu Jing, indicating that he didn't feel anything abnormal.
But Xu Jing frowned at this time, he had a feeling that the blood flow rate in his body suddenly accelerated, maybe the amount of medicine was not enough, this feeling only lasted for a few seconds, and then he returned to calm.
"System."
He thought silently in his heart and looked at the return option, and the upgraded system directly displayed the origin point of the return body that could be transformed.
It is now clearly shown that the return can be used to obtain origin point 132.
He remembered that after increasing his agility to level 2, he had always shown 130, but now he had suddenly increased by 2 points.
It can be seen that ALZ-113 is indeed a miracle drug that can promote the evolution of ape bodies.
And Xu Jing finally determined one thing, the system only canceled the rule that swallowing and digesting can directly obtain the origin point, but he can still harvest the origin point at one time when he returns by enhancing the alien body he has traversed by eating things that are beneficial to himself.
Nothing to hesitate about, he aimed the spout at the open mouth and pressed it.
———!
A slight and long eruption sounded, and a large amount of mist was swallowed into his belly.
Caesar hurriedly grabbed Xu Jing's arm, his face full of nervousness.
Xu Jing shook his head at him slightly, signaled that he was fine, and inhaled until he felt as if he was in a high-temperature sauna, and he felt that his breath was stuffy and hot, and it was difficult to breathe, and he stopped.
The value of 132 origin points on the system interface that could have been converted began to jump rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it became 148, and it continued to rise.
Xu Jing was full of joy, sensing that the subtle changes in his body had little effect on his actions, so he said, "Let's go." ”
He took out the remaining two cans of medicine in the refrigerator, put them away with the half-used cans in his hand, and turned around to leave.
But at this moment, he suddenly was stunned, thought of something, and quickly looked back at Caesar.
Caesar stood there, looking at him with a blank expression, and when he saw him, he gestured excitedly, "Daddy, you have spoken!" ”
Xu Jing didn't expect his body to change so quickly, and by the bright moonlight, he looked at the window glass and found that the iris of his eyes had been covered with a faint layer of green.
"Let's go out first."
His low, hoarse voice rang out again, and Caesar quickly left Will's house.
They ran wildly all the way, and it was not until they were far away that Xu Jing stopped and looked at Caesar.
When he used to watch movies, he always thought that when Caesar said the first "no", it was the result of a further increase in intelligence, but now he doesn't think so.
Judging from his ability to speak soon after using the drug, it was not the body or the intellect that hindered Caesar's ability to speak, but self-knowledge.
Xu Jing himself is a human soul, and he also knows that after using drugs, he can make apes speak, so he naturally speaks as soon as he speaks.
But Caesar, as an authentic chimpanzee, never had such a cognition, and even if he could say it, he never thought about it, or said that he was afraid to try it.
"Caesar, you can speak like a human! Come! Try it! ”
