When Zero returned to camp, it was late at night.

The light pulled away his figure alone, and he walked into the empty training ground alone, looking up at the sky at zero, and let out a soft sigh that only he could hear.

After waking up from the hibernation chamber at base Z7, Zero knew that he was different from ordinary people. The energy intake system controlled by the brain, the strange cells that can replicate to a certain extent through blood, and the golden right eye like a dragon's pupil have branded him as "transformed". Thus, even in these turbulent times, when man, beast, and plant are constantly evolving, life has deviated from its original nature, and zero has clearly deviated even more.

It's just that he still tries to think of himself as a normal person, holding on to those beliefs that have been almost forgotten. For example, friends, commitments, aiqing, and so on. The era is a surging river, and everyone is a dead wood flowing down the river. At the beginning, there was no difference in the woods, but the more you go to Zuihou, how many single trees have not been invaded by the river and can still maintain their original appearance.

Faith is the most haode preservative, and only by using it to prevent the river from invading itself can it ensure that Zuihou will not lose himself. It is because of these beliefs that zero is zero, and not anyone else.

Today, however, Zero, a single tree that floats down the water, has hit a huge reef.

In the Hall of the Twelve Main Gods, he got his own physical examination report. Ben was excited, and Valkyrie wasn't as cold as usual, but Zero himself wasn't happy at all. In this report, he lists various data on Zero's body, and points out that his golden right eye does not belong to the normal structure of human beings, and is not evolved or mutated.

Golden's right eye has an undecipherable genetic code, or genetic lock. After repeated calculations and comparisons, the computer concluded that there were as many as seven levels of genetic locks in Gold's right eye. At present, only the first level of the gene lock has been opened, and the released data can only be described as astronomical.

More information and data will need to be researched, but what is certain is that Gold's right eye is definitely a foreign object relative to Zero's body. It has the same wave energy as the giant known as the god found in Valhalla. Therefore, Ben suspects that this thing also belongs to the creation of that unknown civilization.

And it will appear on Zero's body, which means that someone in the old era has discovered the holy miracle and transplanted the golden eyeball found in the holy miracle to Zero's body. In a scan of Valhalla's computer, it can be seen that the eyeball has a myriad of nerves connected to Zero's brain. Although it is an alien thing, it parasitizes and "lives" in Zero's body.

On the way back, Zero had vaguely guessed that the first-level genetic lock opened in Gold's right eye should have something to do with his free vision and low-light vision. In other words, the so-called gene lock is both a shackle of ability, and when a higher-level gene lock is opened, it means that the golden right eye will release a more powerful ability.

Can a person who pretends to be a "god" still be called a human being?

This question is like a reef in a river, hitting the belief of zero hard. Zero started feeling lost and even a little scared. He was afraid of what he would become when he was no longer human.

Two fires appear in the shadows under the barracks dormitory, drawing Zero's attention back to reality. Although he couldn't see anything in the shadows, with the faint vision of his right eye, Zero saw Cario. When Zero spotted him, Cario crouched slightly, like an athlete standing on the starting line waiting for the race to begin.

As soon as his palm touched the ground, Cario ran. He rushed straight in the direction of Zero, obviously alone, but gave Zero the feeling that it was an armored combat vehicle pressing on him.

Attacks like this, with no reason or warning, have not been uncommon since Zero entered the boot camp. Cario trains Zero in his own way, and Zero gradually gets used to this special "care". As the number of Cario attacks increases, Zero's sense of danger and his reaction to evading attacks have improved considerably.

Just like now, at the moment of discovering Cario, Zero's body was already in combat readiness.

Blood is pumped from the heart and accelerates its flow to all parts of the body. Countless data are formed in Zero's mind, calculated, zuihou form a scheme of circumvention. He bowed slightly, moving sideways the moment Callio was about to rush in front of him. Unexpectedly, Cario suddenly reached out and touched the afterimage that Zero had brought up.

Zero stopped immediately, but it was the left arm that Cario caught.

The instructor showed a row of neat teeth on his face in the smoke screen, and with a throw of his hand, he smashed Zero to the ground.

The moment Zero touched the ground, the muscles in his back bounced slightly, instantly absorbing part of the impact, but the whole person still made Cario dizzy. He shook his head, just about to stand up. Suddenly, the cervical spine and waist were grabbed and lifted by Cario at the same time, and then the instructor smashed the ground twice.

The entire training ground was slightly shaken, and many rooms in the recruits' dormitories were lit up. Some soldiers poked their heads out of the window to look around, and when they saw Cario, they all looked back in recognition.

Zero squirted out a mouthful of blood foam, and then he felt that his chest was not so stuffy. He saw the night sky simulated by the projection walls that spread over the city of Asgard, but he didn't want to, and couldn't get up from the ground. Cario slammed twice in a row, nearly shattering his bones. I haven't fainted now, it's beyond zero expectations.

Cario sat down next to Zero, and the instructor smoked a cigarette and said, "Your movement is so one-size-fits-all that you can easily intercept the line you avoid with just a few careful observations." You're a little slower to react, though, and it seems that you're not hearing any exciting news in Valkyrina. ”

"Mr. Cario, you, and Valkyrie both have such powerful liliang and abilities. I wonder if you sometimes fear your own abilities. Do you feel that these things are making you less and less human?" Zero didn't answer Cario's question, but instead threw out two questions.

Cario looked at him deeply, spat out a large smoke ring from his mouth, and said, "It's rare that you would ask such a question. Today's lads don't want to be strong, so they won't be afraid of their abilities. However, being afraid of your own abilities is not always a bad thing. If you know how to be afraid, you will not lose yourself. ”
