Chapter 39: Jumping Worms
————————————————————
On the shore of Wushui Lake in Tianjing Kingdom, in the endless abyss underground, on the throne made of thousands of corpses, a decaying figure sat paralyzed in a rotten royal robe.
The fluorescence of the fungus recedes in the face of the tide of darkness, a living creature that awakens little by little from the corpses and gradually fills the entire underground space.
Rustle, rustle.
The scales rubbed gently, and it meekly came to the throne, prostrate its headless body, and waited for the king's command.
But the king was just silent, silent.
Just like the millennium of the past.
————————————————————
An ethereal thought rose from the bottom of a passerby's heart, jumping like a vibrant frog in a lotus pond to another heart, and then continued to jump and jump.
It moves forward as fast as a human thinks, skipping over the hearts of thousands of people in the blink of an eye.
Until I came to a snow-capped mountain with no one in China.
It leaps from the heart of the hunter and moves forward like an electric current in a conductor in the thin field of life.
But without the nourishment of the human heart, it also weakens rapidly.
Finally, at the last moment, it came to a mysterious ice cave, and once again jumped over thousands of resentful, nervous, leisurely, or open-minded hearts, and finally jumped into a coffin made of solid ice.
"Wake up, Zhang Liaoyuan. We've got all the opportunities. ”
In the darkness, a pair of sun-like eyes opened, folded and glowed under the solid ice, and the ice coffin cracked an insignificant crack.

Many ancient and otherworldly beings have gradually revived because of the appearance of Adonsa, but it has fallen into a critical moment of life and death.
Adonsa looked at the trembling palms, and the tremors of the muscles in his whole body made it a luxury to even speak.
The skeletal muscles were twitching wildly, every organ was twisting and deforming, and even the usually tame blood cells were pounding the walls of the blood vessels, mutating wildly.
"Mutant ......"
Yes, the true face of the second stage is mutation, a never-ending genetic mutation.
The gene mutation rate of higher organisms ranges from 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 100 million, that is, only one mutation occurs every 100,000 cells, but because they have a genetic mismatch repair system in their cells, they will only accumulate 100 to 200 gene mutations per generation, and most of them are insignificant.
Prokaryotes, on the other hand, have a very pronounced mutation in almost every generation because the RNA that makes up their genetic information is inherently unstable.
At the moment, Adonsa is undergoing millions of mutations in every cell, the entire chromosome has been completely out of control, and the nucleolar region has almost swallowed the entire nucleus, carrying out a high-speed metabolism that is almost self-destructive.
As if billions of years of evolution had been condensed to this moment, every cell in Adonsa's body was howling with joy and pain, scrambling to break free from its original shackles and fight together with wildness.
The originally unified body had completely turned into a brutal battlefield, and Adonsa's body immediately convulsed and collapsed.
All of the Adonza splinters also collapsed, and the same changes took place in the splinters.
At this moment, thousands of out-of-control splits were scattered all over the city, being watched by passers-by.
Little did they know that there was something terrifying in the world that was slowly being bred.
On the street, a woman with a frenzied convulsion attracted all attention.
"What's wrong with this young lady?"
"It looks painful."
"Who's going to give her an artificial breath?"
Just as everyone was talking, a strange lump appeared all over the woman's body, and she suddenly opened her scarlet eyes and stared around viciously.
The atavistic cells gave the woman unparalleled wildness, and she screamed and pounced on the crowd of onlookers, tearing through the fresh flesh with her misshapen minions.
The same chaos is happening all over the city, and the Split is completely out of control.
Arthur collapsed to the ground in pain, trembling, "Damn, what is this......"
Angsa's body was sweating profusely from convulsions: "Adonsa, it's trying to evolve...... No, it's not evolution at all! ”
Having retained their original personalities, he and Angsa could not avoid the effects of the second stage, and they all entered a state of paralysis.
"Damn, it's not afraid of pulling eggs with such a big step!"
"I don't have eggs." Adonsa said silently
Arthur roared in pain, and his entire arm suddenly swollen, then burst under his horrified eyes, and horrible clumps of dark red tissue trembled in the air.
These things are strangely shaped, like naughty graffiti and random building blocks, but this is indeed the prototype of some kind of new life.
Angsa banged the ground uncomfortably: "Our bodies have been divided...... They want to be independent, they want to evolve into independent beings on their own! ”
Onsa was also panicked, his belly bulging high, as if something was about to burst out.
Yes, mutations.
Adonsa indifferently watched all of this.
All the splinters had a horrific scene on them, some of them were tumors, some were strange limbs, and some of them were directly atavistic to their ancestors.
Some of the out-of-control splendor has lost all mobility and is dying, while others have inspired the wildness deep in their genes to hunt humans on a prey and cause a horrific event.
However, the aimless mutation makes it impossible for these cells to evolve a complete structure, and the cells without intelligence do not know how to repair those crazy mutated gene fragments, and their original repair mechanism has been completely out of control under the influence of the second stage.
If you want to complete your evolution by aimless mutation alone, it is better to expect meteorites to kill all the scum in the world.
Adonza struggled to command the chaotic cells to control the mutation, only to provoke an even more violent counterattack.
The disordered mutations consume a large amount of limited nutrients and energy of all the dividing bodies, and these cancerous tissues cannot support the continuous operation of the body at all, but will only devour all the life force in the bottomless pit, and then all wither and die.
At this critical moment, the pedigree book in Adonsa's mind suddenly flipped rapidly, and equations, laws, and data flowed and deduced from page to page, like a Rubik's cube, constantly rotating and combining, absorbing all kinds of mutant information into it, and at the same time bursting out one after another filtered information streams.
Adonsa sent as much mutation information as possible to each cell into the Rubik's Cube, and the pedigree quickly recorded it and output a solution after running at high speed.
For the first time, there is hope that the runaway mutation will be controlled!
But Adonsa felt that his computing power was constantly weakening, and his huge computing power came from the split, and naturally it would be lost due to the mutation of the split.
The first dead and withered schizome had appeared, and its entire body had lost its vitality due to redundant cancerous tissue, and at the moment of death, it was like a dead fish that had been dried for three days.
