Chapter 277: The Price of Inheritance
Xia Lu had been surprised by those corpses before.
She, a person who uses living people and absorbs the energy of living supernatural beings to cultivate, wants those dead corpses to do.
Now that I think about it, one of those corpses was probably herself.
However, soon Xia Lu became confused again.
Since only one corpse was Han Xiao herself, why did she have so many corpses?
There is an even more important thing, she was injected with genes shortly before the end of the world, and according to the time calculation, she is only a college student now, so it is impossible for her to die so early.
Seeing the confusion in Xia Lu's eyes, Han Xiao took a deep breath.
"Actually, I'm not afraid to tell you that my father didn't inject the genes of the ancients into my body just for research, although he has been doing research in related fields, and he is indeed a university professor."
"This is a secret that has been passed down in our family for countless generations, and in each generation of the family there will be a woman who will be sacrificed to become the inheritor of this gene."
"In order to prevent mutation in the process of genetic inheritance, it is not possible to use the normal method of inheritance, so this method of inoculation can only be used."
"And as the genes of the inheritors are weakened from generation to generation, in many cases the recipients die soon after receiving the inheritance."
"I've been dead for three years, and my genes were activated after a new round of survival evolution began, and at this time I was faced with a choice, completely succumbing to the genes of the ancients, and evolving into a demon body, which may make me lose myself and my body become the nourishment of the new demon body."
"Another option is to slow down the evolutionary process and put my body into a state of stagnation and only retain mental awareness."
"I don't lose myself right away, but I need to control other bodies in a special way to move."
Han Xiao explained to Xia Lu.
The main body remains half-dead, and the mind controls the other bodies.
This method is simply invincible!
"I saw a lot of corpses that day, which one is yours and what are the others for?"
Han Xiao shrugged his shoulders when he heard this.
"After I died, most of my mental power had already died, and the energy left behind made my spirit very weak, not enough to release my mental power to control other bodies."
"So I can only absorb the spiritual power of other deceased, especially those who have just died."
Xia Lu was shocked when he heard this.
She has been absorbing the spiritual power of others to support herself.
But if you think about it, it's not as scary as you think.
Are there still fewer dead people these days? The loss of this energy is also a loss, and the absorption by her is only reused.
"Thank you, I learned a lot today."
Xia Lu nodded to Han Xiao.
It can be seen that Han Xiao didn't say so much to herself, and with her character, she is not a person who likes to explain anything to others.
Ken said so much, which shows that she has established some kind of emotional connection with herself deep down.
Han Xiao obviously also realized that he had talked a little too much today, his face quickly turned cold, and he snorted coldly.
"Saying all this, I just want you to know that you can't use the secret method I use, everyone's evolution direction is different, and the control of matter and energy is also different."
"For now, your evolutionary route is not wrong, and if you continue in this direction, sooner or later you may awaken the power of the Void."
Hearing this, Xia Lu frowned slightly.
Once they awaken the power of the vain, it means that they will meet each other.
It was impossible for him to let Han Xiao release the terrifying gene sealed in other dimensions.
And she will do everything she can to unleash those horror genes.
I hope that when this day comes, she will change her opinion, otherwise she can only destroy the flowers with her hands.
"Thank you anyway, at least you helped me solve the problem of the Crimson Celestial Phase once and for all."
Xia Lu nodded and smiled at her.
Han Xiao shrugged.
"Don't rejoice too soon, sooner or later, you human nonsense will send you to the end again, and you don't even know what your opponent is, and you keep messing around."
She quickly turned around and led her men deeper into the woods.
Xia Lu looked at her back and suddenly thought of something.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, since this body is not your body, why were you so disgusted when I met you before?"
Xia Lu remembered the cold and disgusted look on Han Xiao's face when he hugged her in the dungeon before.
The body is not the body, and she hates her hands so much, which is a bit less self-esteem.
When Miss Zhou and Xiao Li heard this, their ears immediately stood up.
They didn't know what was happening at the time, but as soon as they heard the word hug, a lot of inappropriate images immediately appeared in their minds.
Hug, it must be a euphemism, the two must have an adulterous relationship.
Han Xiao's body trembled slightly when he heard this, and he suddenly turned his head.
"Can you die without talking nonsense?"
After saying that, she ignored Xia Lu and strode towards the depths of the woods.
As she left, the giant reincarnation tree collapsed.
Like building blocks that have lost their strength to support them, the trees break into pieces and eventually pile up on the ground as a pile of rotten wood.
Xia Lu was speechless, turned around and wanted to go out.
Lin Cheng at this time.
Above the huge embankment, the battle continues.
The Adepts used their abilities to block the bridge corridor connecting the two sides of the dam, blocking the infected in the middle of the bridge and attacking.
The bridge is made of reinforced concrete, which is fire-resistant and does not have to worry about being destroyed.
"We've already lost three of our manpower, we can't fight anymore, let's withdraw quickly."
Mr. Li didn't know where to come out of nowhere, and walked behind Hua Weiwei with an anxious look on his face.
Xia Lu told them to clean up step by step and little by little, but when they smashed the door and encountered an infected area today, Hua Weiwei suddenly had convulsions, wanting to solve the concentrated infection area in one go.
To this end, they made meticulous plans, envisioned all kinds of possible dangers, and formulated a set of combat strategies that could be called perfect.
However, no matter how perfect the strategy is, it seems that it is not worth mentioning in the face of infection.
The attack had just begun, and the infection quickly spread in an uncontrollable direction, and the attack team was quickly counterattacked.
Immediately after that, there was a war of escape.
They easily attracted infected people to the bridge, and wanted to take advantage of the narrow bridge deck to organize an evacuation.
However, Hua Weiwei suddenly had another convulsion, and he actually wanted to stay and fight to the death.
Mr. Li was convinced of Hua Weiwei's operational command ability, so he naturally did not hesitate.
As a result, the battle fell into persistence again, and more and more people were infected.
Mr. Li, who has always been submissive, is not calm this time.
"Xiaohua, withdraw, wait for Xia Lu to ......"
As soon as he said this, Hua Weiwei's expression, which had already shown a loose expression, suddenly became resolute again.
