"Hey, do you see anything?"

Standing at the edge of the massive passage leading to the bottom of the living quarters, Froman looked down. A kick accidentally kicked the gravel next to it, and the stone rolled into the darkness, only to hear a soft sound a moment later.

Although Jona's eyesight is good, she can see clearly in such a place where there is no light source. She shook her head as the leader asked.

After killing all the bugs that fought back in Experiment A, Zog was left with less than fifty. Froman led them back to the side of the living quarters, and as they walked along the road, they saw insect corpses everywhere. This phenomenon shows that the Andula worm queen has been killed by Zero, and it will cause the chain death of the swarm, and Froman led Jona and a few strong warriors to rush over first. The latter is responsible for collecting the brain crystals of the Andula worm.

The brain crystals of ordinary adults can provide the Zogans with the opportunity to obtain stronger liliangs, and the brain crystals of the insect guards are even rarer. This kind of character is more powerful than ordinary insects, their brain crystals are triangular, the whole body is crimson, and the inside seems to be filled with blood, in fact, it is just a sign of strong energy. It's just that Andula worms oxidize very quickly after death, and proteins and fibers quickly melt into water.

Collecting Brain Crystals can only be done within 5 minutes of their death, so although there are many dead bugs, the Zog's collection of Brain Crystals is limited. The spars of ordinary adults, plus the dozen or so collected by Zero before, are only about two dozen pieces. As for the Wormguard's brain crystals, there are only three pieces. Naturally, these three pieces are not the turn of those ordinary Zogna, only strong warriors like Froman and Jona can obtain the spar of the insect guard, and only they can use it to get the greatest effect.

Giving it to others is just a waste.

Moments later, all the Zognas had gathered in the passage where the queen was fed. Froman called for some cold fireworks, lit them and threw them down the tunnel. It didn't take long for them to fall to the bottom of the base passage. In the blue light of the fire, the mountain-like head of the Andullah bug appeared, scaring many of the Zogs into their chokes.

Froman touched his head and shouted, "Quiet. It's just a corpse, look how cowardly you are, to scare a corpse like this!"

Saying that, Froman didn't mean much to blame. After all, the Andura Bug has been a powerful woman for a long time, and even if it's just a corpse, it's not unusual for people to be frightened when they suddenly see it.

"Look over there. ”

As the light of the fire faded, Jona pointed not far from the corpse of Queen Andula, and there was a white body lying on the side, which was actually a woman from the silhouette.

"Woman?" Froman was even more puzzled: "Why is there an extra woman coming out, don't that guy actually be a woman, right?"

Jona gave him a blank look, she was the closest to zero when she attacked Zero. Zero didn't cover his face in a robe at that time, and the male characteristics on his body, including the Adam's apple, were clear at a glance, so how could it be a woman pretending.

"I'll go down and see. With that, Jona jumped down the passage. She deftly built the jagged foothold at the edge of the passage, and her figure flickered and disappeared into the darkness.

Froman said to the people behind him, "Go find some ropes and come down by yourselves." The emergency passage is still down there, and we have to get out of there. Joanna and I will go down first, you guys hurry up and follow!"

When he had finished speaking, he turned and jumped into the dark space of the passage. At the bottom of the passage, as soon as Jona fell to the ground, she heard the sound of breaking the air above, and then Froman's head was smashed down, and a wave of air whistled away, blowing Jona's body swaying, but seeing Froman's as if drunk, standing up and playing in circles, it took a long time for him to shake his head and finally survive the dizziness of hitting the ground.

"What a mess. Joanna said angrily.

Froman took a look, then smiled: "Jona, you're in a good mood." ”

"Of course, you can get out of this place and see what has become of Shijie outside, weishenme I'm in a bad mood?" Joanna asked rhetorically, and without waiting for Froman to answer, she walked around the huge corpse behind the Andula worm and walked towards the woman lying on the ground with her back to them.

"It's been so many years, maybe our relatives outside have forgotten us. What's more, they can't accept us like this. But even so, I have to leave here. The time has finally come for the Pope Hall to settle accounts with you. Froman clenched his fists and snorted through his nostrils before he walked over to Jona's side.

Jona was half-crouched on the ground, two fingers pressed against the side of the woman's neck. She shook her head and said, "This man is dead." ”

Froman looked at this graceful curve and couldn't help but whistle and said, "It's a pity, I can't forget how many years I haven't seen such a superb." As he spoke, he turned the woman's body over, and when the blonde hair on the corpse's face slid to the ground, Froman was shocked and exclaimed, "What kind of monster is this!"

It turned out that after Ye Lijie's death, the dominant genes of humans were receding, and the genes of Andula worm began to become prominent. Now the face of the insect queen has become the insect shape that Zero saw before, and even her body has begun to change, in short, Ye Lijie is like an insect man now.

Joanna couldn't tell what it was, and at this moment, an invisible wave swept by. Jona's body suddenly tightened, and her pupils contracted and dilated. For a while, the blood flow in her body accelerated, and Jona subconsciously entered a state of imminent battle.

Froman felt the fluctuation as well, but his reaction was much calmer than Jona's. But he looked at the source of the wave with the same solemnity, there was a metal wall that had smashed a gap in something, and something in the wall was emitting a faint light, from where the wave just came from. Froman clearly felt that there was a very powerful liliang in that fluctuation, and this liliang was deep and condensed. The level of liliang it presents on the surface is not high, but if you feel it carefully, you will find that it is impossible to know the limit of this liliang at all.

It was as if what they had just felt was only the surface of the sea, and there was no way to measure how deep Shijie was underwater.

At this moment, another wave passed.

Jona had relaxed a little, and the two looked at each other before walking towards the metal wall together.

When I got closer, I could see that the glowing thing was a frighteningly large egg. The tip of the egg had cracked, like something had come out of it. This made the two of them look at the insect man in the distance, but now, there was obviously something else in it.

At this moment, a palm suddenly grabbed the eggshell with a delicate pattern.

Jona almost pounced, but was caught by Froman. Then, a figure turned out of the egg and fell to the ground, and the two of Froman could see that this person was the Zero who challenged the Andura worm alone!

Zero was still stained with glowing energy, and he seemed to have just woken up from his sleep. When I opened my eyes, my eyes were blank. What can be seen is that the gold of Zero's right eye is still golden, and the pupil on the left is a misty blue light. This burst of light is deep and vast, and the heart of hope palpitates. It wasn't until a moment that the blue light gradually faded away, and the black pupils of Zero were restored.

And at this time, zero can be regarded as the real awakening.

"You're here. The people in front of him were Froman and Jona said, Zero said.

In the distance, above the passage, there were a number of Zognes who were using safety ropes to slide down to the bottom. When he saw them, Zero suddenly realized that he was not using shimmer vision, but everything at the bottom of the base was in his line of sight. And when his eyes are focused on a certain person, he will see several images of this person at the same time, and when these images are combined, a diorama will naturally appear in Zero's mind.

Zero was a little uncomfortable with this sudden vision, and he knew that it was probably related to the energy liquid left behind in the giant egg after absorbing the Andula worm. They seem to have a little more of the genetic fragments of the postworm, because the vision is very similar to the compound eye of the insect. Under this stereoscopic vision, Zero can grasp almost every subtle movement of the opponent, and can even analyze the opponent's next possible reaction through some subtle movements.

This is a new ability created by the combination of the queen's stereo vision and the ability of the zero right eye, the "prophet", which is as wonderful as being able to see through the future. Of course, the limit of what zero can see is what the opponent will react to in a second or two, but that's pretty remarkable. However, Zero is always human, and his genetic chain is still dominated by human fragments, so he cannot use stereoscopic vision for long periods of time.

On top of that, Zero found that all the injuries on his body had healed. Originally, according to the feedback from the memory group, the entire patching work would not be completed until at least tomorrow. Now it was completed a few hours earlier, and it can be said that it was the work of those energy liquids, which made Zero's recovery ability a big step higher.

The Zognes descended to the bottom one after another, because they had just experienced a big battle, and they were all physically and mentally exhausted. The leader of Froman, in particular, was under far more pressure than anyone else could have imagined. After confirming that the worm was dead, and Zero was safe and sound, Froman fell asleep, and he had many injuries on his body.

Jona and the others were resting with their eyes closed, digesting what Zero had just said to them. Zero briefly talked about the evolution and ambition of the Andula worm, but everyone who listened to it was sent chills all over their bodies. If it weren't for Zero's success in intercepting and killing the Queen of Andullah today, if she was allowed to leave, not only would the human Shijie outside suffer, but even the Zogna people in the base would not survive.

Thinking that the queen of insects planned to blow up the passage and let them be buried with the other Andura bugs, Jona and the others couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately, they chose to bet with zero for such a time. Otherwise, if they are at peace with the status quo, then a cold death awaits them.

A slight cracking sound was heard, and Jona opened her eyes. Through the light of several emergency lights brought down by the Zog, Zero can be seen not far away punching at a very fast speed. Jona's eyes widened, barely catching the faint afterimage of Zero's fist. Zero is constantly making moves while punching. His movements were very subtle, but they were extremely fast, and he barely stayed in the same place for more than a second.

And some of the movements Jona doesn't know how he did it, because these movements have exceeded the limits of what the human body can move. Jona couldn't help but imagine that if she was in front of Zero, she was already sweating profusely in a few moments. A wave of turmoil stirred up in her heart, because she found that if she became an opponent of Zero, she would not be able to catch his movements.

In such an environment, Jona will only play without a backhand.

She smiled wryly and shook her head, and Zero seemed to be getting a lot stronger. Suddenly, Jona thought of another thing, Zero's punch speed had obviously exceeded the speed of sound, so it would be difficult to capture. But in the state of supersonic speed, there is no reason for such a punch to be pitifully quiet. This can only be done by binding all the liliang into the fist so that the friction with the air is reduced to a minimum.

In such a state, Zero's seemingly ordinary punch is unimaginably strong.

But Joanna didn't know that Zero hadn't even used the attack stacking effect of the spiral puncture or bursting barrage.

Now, Zero is just adapting to the body that has absorbed the energy liquid as quickly as possible, as well as the newly formed abilities. After absorbing the energy liquid, the basic abilities of zero. Including liliang, defense, speed, reaction, flexibility, etc. have been significantly improved. Under the distribution of the main brain, the energy liquid is not all allocated to the speed like Ye Lijie, and the main brain always thinks that all-round development is more suitable for the needs of zero. It's just that out of zero habit, within the scope of what can be allocated, the main brain invests more resources in speed.

Therefore, when he woke up, although Zero's speed did not reach the point where Ye Lijie was enough to support multiple phantom attacks, it was also two to three times higher than usual. What's more, he developed a new ability, "tenacity". Tenacity doesn't work directly on combat, it's similar to the Steel Skin, and it's a support-type ability. When he used it, Zero's flexibility was greatly improved, allowing him to break through the upper limits of human abilities and do what was now incredible in Jona's eyes.

At first glance, Tenacity doesn't directly increase Zero's power. But the effect it brings is even more terrifying than directly increasing the energy of zero. With the ability of tenacity, Zero One became the most feared master of martial arts. If an opponent weighs his moves as a human being, the lesson will be one that will last a lifetime.

However, there are advantages and disadvantages, tenacity will soften the muscles of Zero's whole body to the greatest extent and even change the structure of some muscles, so that Zero can make inhuman movements. At the same time, however, when using this ability, the Iron Skin cannot be used. The two capabilities are inherently conflicting, making it difficult to coexist.

But now, even if you don't use steel skins, under the transformation of the memory group and energy liquid, Zero's basic defense is almost catching up with Franklin's defense-specialized powerhouse. In this way, the value of tenacity is far greater than that of steel skin.

In addition to the great improvement of the body and Liliang, the gain of zero is not only that. Ye Lijie has contributed nearly 100 evolution points to zero, and it seems that her potential has not been fully realized, otherwise there would not be so many evolution points. And Ye Lijie also found a crystal body of the queen worm on her body, this crystal is a perfect hexahedron, which looks like a diamond at first glance.

It's just that this diamond is golden yellow, and the energy flowing in it is so rich that even ordinary people can feel its extraordinary. This queen worm crystal naturally fell into Zero's sac, and as for the dozen or so ordinary brain crystals that Zero had before, they were given to Zog's people.

In this regard, Froman and others naturally have no opinion, in the era when the strong are respected, it is natural for Ye Lijie to kill the insect queen alone, and to get the lion's share. And the value of this crystal alone is the sum of all brain crystals. If it is sold for gold coins, it is estimated that it will be worth at least four or five million. This is a huge fortune, but the value of the crystallization of the queen worm cannot be measured in terms of money, for a powerhouse of this level of zero, it is far more useful than money.

After getting acquainted with his body, Zero threw the queen crystals into his mouth and swallowed them directly. As soon as Zero enters Zero's body, the surface of the queen's crystals is immediately covered with fine cracks, and then it bursts open. The golden energy flame inside overflowed, making Zero's whole body exude a faint golden light.

Zero could feel that most of the energy emitted by the crystals was directly transformed into evolution points in some mysterious way. At the beginning, nearly 100 evolution points directly emerged, which was equivalent to the gain from killing Ye Lijie. The appearance of evolutionary points has not stopped, they are like snowballing more and more, and Zero is deeply shocked. Evolution points are the number that can directly represent the value of crystallization, and the more evolution points, the greater the value of the crystallization.

These evolution points surged to 237 before stopping, plus what Zero originally had, and now he has accumulated 345 evolution points, which is only about a hundred or so short of what is needed to advance to the tenth order. And now, Zero has stood at the peak of the ninth order, and it can be said that he is invincible under the tenth order, even if he is an ordinary tenth-order powerhouse, it is estimated that he can fight a fight.

Most of the crystallized energy was converted into evolution points, while a small part was combined with Zero's own energy, and the rest was distributed throughout his bones, starting some kind of transformation. A large amount of data frantically poured into Zero's mind, letting Zero know that when the transformation was complete, some metal element would be added to his bones, making them stronger. The bones will be hollow, making the bones lighter. But at the same time, there will be a hexagonal gap on the surface of the bone, and the gap will be filled with some kind of material similar to bone glue, which makes the zero impact resistance greatly improved, and when needed, the bone structure can be tightly occluded by closing the gap, so as to burst out stronger liliang!

This process takes 12 to 20 hours, and it takes one to two days to stabilize the lightweight bone and get used to it. After completing this physical evolution, Zero will lose about one-fifth of his weight. He will become lighter and, at the same time, faster!

For such a change, Zero is very satisfied. The number of evolution points that Ye Lijie contributed was originally an accident, and now the crystallization of the queen worm is an unexpected gain, and the surging energy breath in her body constantly proves that she has taken a big step forward. Zero is now full of confidence, and he can't wait to find someone to practice right away to feel how much stronger he has become.
