Chapter 25: Prehistoric Civilizations
Chu Hai's movements were obviously sluggish, and he was still on guard against Edward, but a survivor of the Mesopotasian civilization and an intelligent creature with memetic properties were two completely different concepts. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
And Edward also has some scruples about Chu Hai, as a survivor of a once glorious civilization, he may know more about memes than the members of the Hope team, the Misopotia civilization was destroyed by memes, and Edward naturally has a high level of defense against Chu Hai who shows memetic characteristics.
"You're also a memetic immunizer?"
"You're the Chosen One too?"
Although the Blade Locusts had already shown their tracks, the two couldn't help but ask each other tentatively.
Both civilizations call memes something that is beyond scientific common sense and can only be described as myths, magic, and miracles, but it is clear that the two civilizations have different understandings and attitudes towards memes from their conversations.
Human civilization treats memes as a virus and a disaster, and their research on memes also tends to be from the perspective of medical biology, which can be seen from the title of memetic immunizer, and people like Chu Hai who are lucky enough not to die are regarded as immunizers of memes and viruses.
And from the three words of the Chosen One that came out of Edward's mouth, Chu Hai could probably guess the attitude of the Mesopotian civilization towards memes, they most likely regarded the memes as a miracle, a supernatural magical power, and those who were lucky enough to get the memetic characteristics were called the Chosen One! Judging by this title, the Mesopotamian civilization seems to have regarded this as a kind of worship and glory!
They still wanted to ask each other again, but it was too late, the bladed locusts that Edward said were approaching, and at this time Chu Hai saw the appearance of those bladed locusts clearly, their appearance was not much different from the common locusts on the earth, but the size was several times larger, each locust had a body the size of a mouse, in addition, their forelimbs had become not like biological organs, they were like sharp knives, and when they roared and charged, the walls of the corridor were drawn by them one after another. Chu Hai also understood why this group of locusts had the name of Blade Locust.
Bang! Bang......
While Chu Hai was still observing, Edward had already started shooting, the weapon he used was similar to a common pistol, bullets were fired, and all the bladed locusts that were hit would fall to the ground and struggle, but even if the body was shot in half, these locusts were not completely dead, they were still tossing their wings, and only when they smashed their heads would the bladed locusts completely die.
A huge shadow appeared on Chu Hai's body, and the blade locust in front of him was smashed by Chu Hai's punch, completely turning into a puddle of meat sauce, and after killing a few blade locusts, Chu Hai found that his shadow had already appeared several cracks, which were caused by the sharp forelimbs of the blade locusts, just a few blade locusts were already like this, if the thousands of blade locusts swarmed up, Chu Hai already felt that his scalp was numb.
"Get out of the way!" Seeing Chu Hai resisting in front, Edward retreated to the rear for a distance, the two guns in his hands had been put away, replaced by a huge tubular weapon, after shouting at Chu Hai, Edward pressed the button, and a high-temperature flame sprayed out, this weapon was actually a flamethrower.
Chu Hai's movements were extremely fast, and before the first flame erupted, he had already kicked open a door and hid in the room, waiting for the flames to stop whistling before he walked out of the room.
He secretly compared the flamethrowers he had seen with the weapons Edward's hold, the weapons and equipment in the Foundation were quite high-tech, but those heavy large flamethrowers could not be used flexibly by one person's strength, and the flames sprayed could only reach a distance of about a hundred meters, and the width was only about one meter, and the hand-held flamethrower used by Edward was much smaller than the Foundation's flamethrower. The width should not be as good as the flamethrower that Chu Hai saw, but this is not the case, the hand-held jet has a spray distance of up to two hundred meters, a width of five meters, and it lasted for more than thirty seconds!
Chu Hai secretly guessed in his heart, judging from this flamethrower, the technological level of the Misopothaya civilization probably surpassed that of human civilization by much, much.
Shock is shock, but it is always worth rejoicing after repelling the blade locusts, but Chu Hai is also puzzled, he obviously feels a great crisis, how could it be so easy to end, thinking of this, Chu Hai did not disperse the shadows, and still vigilantly looked around.
"Do you already feel that something is wrong? No, judging from the level of my senses, you are not a high-level Chosen One, how can you have such intuition? Edward had already put away his weapon, and the flamethrower more than a meter long disappeared in an instant, but he didn't know if he had the same high-tech equipment as Chu Hai with spatial storage technology.
"The High Chosen One? You're talking about memetic assimilation, yes, I haven't been able to assimilate memes, I haven't even fused memes, I can only use the power of memes now, and according to the words of our human civilization, I'm still a memetic immune. Chu Hai once heard Zheng Jiu say that once he entered the level of memetic assimilation, he would have a sensitive feeling similar to the intuition of a beast, but Chu Hai himself was puzzled, he was only a memetic immune, but after waking up, he had such a keen intuition, and he himself felt incredible.
"I don't know how your human civilization masters and uses memes, in the Mesopotasian civilization, those who can be infected with memes and immortal are the Chosen One, if you can use the power of memes, you can call it a Primary Chosen One, if you fuse memes into your body, you are an Intermediate Chosen One, if you can start absorbing memes, then you are a Senior Chosen One, you say you are a memetic immune, from the extent I sensed it, you are a Primary Chosen One, but it's very strange, I've never seen such a powerful junior Chosen One as you, and even some of the Intermediate Chosen One I've seen are not as good as you......" Edward seemed to be thinking about something, and his words also made Chu Hai secretly shocked in his heart.
"Edward has mentioned induction several times, he can sense my strength level, his memetic ability should be more than mine, he is already able to sense the strength level and the impending danger, could it be that he, like the captain, has already assimilated memes!?" Chu Hai raised Edward's danger level by several levels in his heart, to be honest, if he faced a powerful existence like the captain Zheng Jiu, he was not at all sure, even if all his three layers of shadows were released, he could only be suppressed and beaten by Zheng Jiu.
The two of them had their own thoughts, and they were silent for a while, but at this moment, the locusts on the ground that had been burned to black ash actually moved again, and the black ashes gathered together and turned into lively blade locusts again.
Chu Hai was surprised when he saw this scene, this kind of thing was incredible to Chu Hai, but Edward on the side seemed to have already known that he had already taken out another firearm weapon, judging from the style, this weapon actually resembled the water gun that Chu Hai used to play with in his childhood.
"The Blade Locust is a mutant infected with an unnamed mysterious meme, in addition to being extremely aggressive, the vitality is very strong, and it can be resurrected after death, the number of resurrections is not necessarily, and after each resurrection, the ability in all aspects will be greatly improved, according to the records of the Coalition Government of Misopotaya, the strongest Blade Locust has ever appeared, and it can eliminate a regular coalition government army of 1,000 people in a head-on battle, so, be careful, they are coming......" Edward's face was not good-looking.
"A regular army of 1,000 people...... Chu Hai clenched his fists, as a member of the Hope Squad, he has extremely strong personal strength, but in fact, his strength is only able to fight against five to ten Foundation standard combat squads, that is, about two hundred people.
The blade locusts attacked again, and in appearance, there was no difference from before, but Edward's previous words made Chu Hai prepare in his heart, and he did not rush into the swarm of locusts.
"That...... Chu Hai, I think we should run away. Chu Hai smashed the blade locusts that rushed forward into pieces, but Edward's voice came from behind him.
"Shoot!" Chu Hai urged Edward repeatedly, there are a large number of blade locusts, and once surrounded, it is almost a dead end, hand-to-hand combat is too dangerous, and the best way at present is to rely on Edward's weapons.
"I was removed from the battlefield before I fell asleep, my weapons and ammunition were insufficient, the flamethrower's energy had been depleted, and this electric gun only had one round of energy, and it didn't make a big difference with a pistol......" Edward had been asleep for too long, until he encountered the Blade Locust, and he suddenly realized that the weapons and ammunition he was carrying were insufficient.
"**This is a cheat! What are your memetic abilities!? Hurry up and use it! Chu Hai couldn't help but take a few steps back.
The blade locust attacked closely, and the buzzing sound made Chu Hai and Edward both have the idea of escaping, but fortunately, the speed of the blade locust was not too fast, and the two of them were bent on avoiding the battle, but they were not entangled by the blade locust, but the two no longer had free time for conversation.
"Tut-tut, it's really embarrassing, hahaha! Rookie, and the guest of Misopotaya, Uncle Zheng Jiu of the SCP Foundation for Human Civilization 05 has arrived! ”
A familiar voice made Chu Hai excited, and with it, a tall man and a long knife that shone with cold light.
