In Cato and Anne's cognition, humans are infected with Titan cells, and when they develop to a cancerous stage, their bodies swell uncontrollably.

Until the advanced stage of cancer, the over-propagated Titan cells burst the host's unbearable body!

This process of enormity is considered irreversible.

Until this moment, a living counterexample stood in front of them.

The mysterious boy on the other side has clearly embodied the huge characteristics of cell cancer, how can he still shrink?

Cato and Anne were full of questions.

Alan put on his cloak and asked first:

"Cato, Annie, tell me what's wrong with the world."

"Uh...... This question is not clear in one or two sentences. ”

Cato barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

"Can you tell me first, what should I call you?"

Alan groaned and said slowly: "A year ago, I came here, and the memory in my mind was incomplete, and I even forgot my name. ”

"I didn't know who I was or how I got here, but I was acutely aware that I had come into this world with a sacred and great mission."

"It doesn't matter my name, the important thing is that I will walk on this wasteland and save the people who are suffering."

"For convenience, you might as well call me 'Prophet.'"

Allen's face was deep, his tone was solemn, and his temperament was very good, which stunned the two young people.

"So...... Are you God's messenger, the Messiah? ”

Anne asked cautiously.

"According to your religious customs, it is not unreasonable to understand it this way."

Alan said indifferently.

"Alright then, Prophet, in order to facilitate communication, can we connect to the Internet first and add contacts to each other?"

"In this way, I can telepathically send you the big news after the cataclysm."

"Networked?" Alan frowned, "What kind of net do you mean?" ”

"Titan Network, of course! To be exact, it is a network of escapism based on the Titan Network and the Freedom Protocol, we have broken away from the Metropolis, and we can no longer use the cursed Solomon Network and endure the perverted Solomon Protocol! ”

Alan was speechless for a moment.

He understood every word Anne spoke, but when put together, it became incomprehensible.

Anne noticed that he was dazed, and asked tentatively:

"Are you supposed to ...... You don't know what Titan Network is, right? ”

"I understand the literal meaning of the word, but I don't know how to network." Alan shrugged and spread his hands.

"It's very simple, as long as you control the Titan cells in your brain with your mind, send out mental fluctuations, establish a spiritual connection with me, and accept my guidance, you can enter cyberspace and apply for real-name registration."

"Cato and I both have the authority to approve and register."

"Although we don't know you well enough, I believe that you should not be a minion of Solomon Company, and you can skip the identity check and help you register a network ID."

"Once you've signed up, as long as you stay focused and meditate, you'll be able to connect to the Escape Network at any time and get a simple interface that we call the Titan System."

"The Titan system, including several panels."

"For example, the status panel can view your physical and mental data, superpowers, health status, especially the diffusion rate of titan cells, and whether there is a risk of cancer."

"Information panels, including databases that can be accessed for publicly available information, public forums, and encrypted databases and forums that require special authorization to access."

"There is also a communication panel, add your friend's network ID to it, and you can communicate with your friend remotely at any time."

The more Alan listened, the more surprised he became.

The "Titan Network" that Anne describes sounds like the most primitive of the internet.

It's just that the Titan network doesn't need network cables, nor does it rely on electromagnetic waves to transmit data, but is networked through the spiritual fluctuations emitted by the human soul.

Even network terminals and operating systems exist only in the user's brain, which is called the "Titan system".

This reminded Alan of his gluttonous system.

I have to suspect that at the moment when I fused the origin of the Ancestor Titan, part of the memories of my previous life were extracted, and combined with the memory fragments left by the Ancestor Titan in the origin space, such a strange wasteland punk worldview was born!

"Prophet? Prophet? It doesn't matter to you, right? ”

Cato saw him in a daze for a long time and couldn't help but call out.

Alan came back to his senses and shook his head calmly.

"Don't worry, I was meditating just now, and I vaguely felt a hint of divine revelation...... Anyway, I don't have Titan cells in my body, can I use telepathy in other ways to connect to your network? ”

"How is this possible?!"

Cato raised his voice and shook his head.

"No one living in this wasteland is immune to being infected with Titan cells!"

"The infected either lose their minds or spontaneously awaken their telepathic ......"

Cato suddenly thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but widen his eyes:

"Wait a minute...... You're not crazy, are you? ”

If an infected person hadn't gone crazy, how could he lose the memory of the first half of his life and claim to be a savior?!

Alan sighed and patiently explained:

"I'm not crazy, and I really haven't infected Titan cells, believe it or not."

Anne and Cato looked at each other, still skeptical.

"Prophet! If you're telling the truth, then you're likely to have a legendary special constitution that is immune to Titan cell infections, and you're a natural person! Anne guessed.

The so-called "natural person", Alan can guess without asking, refers to humans who have not been infected with Titan cells.

It is conceivable that in this wasteland full of germs, infected people abound, but natural people are extremely rare.

"But then you can't explain where your superpowers come from?"

Cato questioned.

"After all, only the infected of Titan cells can evolve superpowers!"

"Superpowers...... Do you mean my Golem form? ”

Alan smiled and shook his head.

"It has nothing to do with the Titan cell, it's an atavistic transformation."

"Atavistic ......?"

This time it was Cato and Anne's turn not to understand.

"Well...... You can think of it as a manifestation of divine power. ”

Alan felt more and more that playing a god stick could provide him with a lot of convenience.

"This is not my ability alone, all those who are chosen by me and are willing to follow me on the path of salvation also have the opportunity to gain divine power."

"Believe me, you don't have to be infected with Titan cells, you don't have to live in fear of illness and death, through devout faith, humanity can still gain the power to change your fate!"

Cato and Anne were silent for a long time.

There was an inner shock on his face that was difficult to hide.

"Prophet...... To gain the kind of power you say, who should we believe? Your God...... Or yourself? ”

Anne's eyes flashed with a strange light.

"It's all the same."

Allen's face was solemn, and he slowly raised his right hand.

The index, middle, and ring fingers are pointing towards the sky.

From this simple gesture, Anne realized the true meaning of the "Holy Trinity", and a look of realization appeared in her eyes.

……

Two days later.

The engine filled with crystal nuclei, driving the convertible general car, roared away from the ruins of Kangzhen.

Cato is still in charge of driving.

Anne sat beside him, occasionally turning her head to look at the back row.

Cato glanced at his partner helplessly and reminded her in a low voice:

"The Prophet is meditating, you better not disturb him."

"If I were you, I would seek revelation from him at night."

Anne's face flushed as she heard him teasing herself.

"You don't talk nonsense! I'm looking back at Phoenix, aren't you curious? Titan roosters can be so small! ”

Cato, of course, knew she was covering it up, smiled and didn't debunk it.

Alan heard the two whispering and turned his head to look at Phoenix, who was lying on the seat next to him.

The Titan Rooster, who is experiencing a drive for the first time, stares around with his eyes and is full of curiosity about the scenery flashing outside the window.

With Phoenix's size, it's hard to cram into a jeep.

However, with the help of the "Prayer Technique", temporarily turning it into the size of an ordinary rooster is nothing more than a gesture for Allen.

Retracting his gaze, Alan sat in the back seat, his eyes closed, his brain running at high speed.

Cato and Anne spent two days in town and told him a lot about the world.

Some of these events are related to Allen's memories of his past life, but if you get to the bottom of it, you will find a lot of details about the magic change.

Alan had to admire the imagination of the Ancestral Titans.

The memory fragment of the scaly claw adds hundreds of millions of details, and the topic is used to play to create a plate of unique flavor hodgepodge!

According to the timeline of this magic earth, 23 years ago, an extraterrestrial meteorite codenamed "Titan" fell in the western Pacific Ocean.

The Dusen consortium, a multinational company, salvaged meteorite fragments and carried out a series of studies.

The head of the project, Dr. Solomon, is said to be the son-in-law of the chairman of the consortium.

With the financial support of his father-in-law, the Solomon Institute was created.

Collaborated with his old classmate, Professor Butler, to extract the cellular tissue of alien organisms from meteorite fragments.

This was the first sample of the "Titan cell".

A decade-long study has led to a series of astonishing conclusions.

Almost all animals and plants on the earth can be parasitized, assimilated, and transformed into titan creatures by titan cells.

In the process of transformation, the physical or mental body of the creature will be strengthened to varying degrees.

Become incredibly strong, surprisingly agile, or awaken to supernatural skills like telepathy.

However, while the Titan cell promotes biological evolution, it also brings a deadly curse.

The titan cells in living organisms, unrestrained, will spread like cancer cells.

Heavily infected with Titan cells, they enter the cancerous stage, become huge and crazy, and lose their humanity, leaving only an insatiable appetite and violent impulses.

After a large number of sample comparisons, the research group led by Dr. Solomon and Professor Butler came to an empirical rule:

Once the proportion of titan cells in the body of an infected person exceeds the warning line of 10% of body weight, the cancerous transformation cannot be reversed!

The Titan cells in the body of the cancerous person continue to spread, and the body expands until it spreads to the whole body, ushering in death.

The corpse of the deceased has a high probability of self-detonation, squirting a large number of Titan cells out of the body, like dandelion seeds, scattered with the wind, looking for the next host that can be parasitized.

……

Cato and Anne's description of the Titan Cell reminds Eren of Warlock blood.

In the world of warlocks, the purity of the transcendent bloodline in the human body does not exceed 10%.

Born more than 10% and not considered human.

Breaking through 10% the day after tomorrow often means falling into the devil.

From this point of view, the infected person of the Titan cell is actually a warlock in the broad sense.

It's just that the transcendent bloodline that the Titan cells bestow on the infected is a dangerous double-edged sword.

If left unchecked, it will eventually slide into self-destruction.

……

Thirteen years ago, there was an accident at the Solomon Institute.

A test subject, codenamed "Titans", lost control, broke through the protective gear, and went on a rampage of destruction.

When it was finally subdued, the Institute had been devastated.

One hundred and forty-four scientific researchers fell into a coma.

No one knows what the Titans did to them.

Since that day, the victims have not been revived, and all of them are in a vegetative state.

Dusen, with its vast financial resources and political influence, managed to cover up the truth of the accident.

However, a large number of Titan cells have escaped from the ruins of the Institute.

In just two weeks, it spread to countries around the world.

As a result, the situation slid into the abyss of spiraling out of control.

The rapidly spreading epidemic has finally caused a catastrophe.

Within a year, almost all of humanity was infected with Titan cells.

At that time, there was no effective means to curb cancer, and the vast majority of infected people died after living for less than two years.

The survivors fled the affected areas and went into exile, and the social order completely collapsed.

The world is in a state of burning, killing, looting......

Human society has since entered the "era of catastrophic change".

In just over a decade, the world's population has plummeted by 99%.

At the same time, Dr. Solomon found an opportunity to thrive in the midst of the Holocaust.

Based on his research results, Dr. Solomon published the first generation of cancerous inhibitors.

Using this life-saving drug, a large number of infected people with awakened superpowers were controlled.

Immediately afterwards, Dr. Solomon replaced his father-in-law as the helm of the Dusen Group.

It is said that Dr. Solomon married the eldest lady of the Dusen Group and became his son-in-law in order to obtain scientific research funds.

Now that he is in power, he no longer needs to be a man with his tail between his legs, so he simply kicked away the woman who was in the way and reshuffled the board of directors in a drastic way.

Dusen Company, and thus became Salomon Company.

The metropolis, where the company's headquarters is located, has preserved basic livelihood facilities despite the disaster, and has become a refuge for many disaster victims.

Replacing the government with mercenaries and the police system, Solomon Corporation has a firm grip on the wasteland capital and the millions of inhabitants living in the city.

Today, there are hundreds of such shelters built on the ruins of cities around the world.

Or, like the Metropolis, accept the high-pressure rule of the plutocracy, and barely maintain social order.

Or worse, it has become a Shura field for gangsters and even warlords.

And beyond the refuge, the vast no-man's land, the ruins of the old town, are occupied by a thousand strange Titanmon.

The ruins of Kangzhen, where Allen lived in seclusion for a year, are one of those that is not special.
