Chapter 161

Chapter 161

Bai Ju also learned from Xiao Yao not long ago that Alang was not a child abandoned at birth. His family raised him until he was nearly one year old before abandoning him near the training center of the base.

In fact, this is quite common. Nine out of ten abandoned children will appear near the training center; after all, they are the source of food supply for the base. No matter how strict the base management is, the training center is relatively well-off in terms of food.

But the nursery is not a charity after all, and not all children left at the door will be rescued.

They will lie outside for 24 hours. If their vital signs have not disappeared, they will be reported to the system by the detection robot, thereby gaining the qualification to enter the observation room.

However, everything is not alright after entering the observation room. These children have been abandoned by their parents and will not receive the base's testing process for free. They will only receive an inferior basic reagent to test their physical fitness by forcing an immune response.

Through the test, only a very small number of children can be trained with the resources of the base. More than 80% of the children will suffer irreversible damage from the forced immune response, which may not necessarily lead to death, but they will not be able to live well.

These children who cannot pass the test will be abandoned by the base on an island that is temporarily in a silent period.

They may survive there, they may be eaten, or they may disappear in the next natural disaster.

But Bai Ju vaguely felt that there was a loophole in this mechanism. After a few days of thinking, he finally discovered the problem.

The physical strength of a child who has been put on hold for more than 24 days and has not yet died should be above the average of the base people, but why can't he still fail the basic reagent test?

And if they are completely unable to adapt to the reagent, why can they still retain their vital signs? Judging from the fragile physical conditions of infants and young children, the only outcome that cannot survive the immune response is death.

The breakthrough point came to Bai Ju when he was teaching Xiao Yao how to practice.

The heterogeneous conditions of this world coincide with the conditions of cultivation; as a righteous demon cultivator, Bai Ju's first reaction to cultivation is naturally to absorb spiritual energy, but ignores the existence of demonic energy.

This is not his fault. After all, in this world, ordinary people are "immune" to spiritual energy and demonic energy before they open their spiritual orifices; the energy of heaven and earth is not as obedient as air, and can be breathed at will. Breathing in and out requires correct traction through the Dharma door before it can enter the body. Although the concentration of the air of heaven and earth will affect people's physique to a certain extent, it will never be forcibly invaded.

But the world in this mirror is different.

The sunlight turns the earth into a pill furnace. The spiritual energy and demonic energy of this world are as if activated by the furnace fire. They have stronger invasion characteristics and are forcibly integrated with the creatures and materials in this world. The creatures can only be forced to Accept and passively form a cycle system to adapt to the invading air of heaven and earth.

Most of the human beings who can be heterogeneous can be understood as humans who have the potential to cultivate immortality; while some people who cannot be heterogeneous but can tenaciously retain their vital signs during the distortion process may have been affected by demonic energy in the process. of reinforcement.

Even if there is a one in 10,000 possibility...in the many years since the beginning of the "apocalypse", there may have been a demonic cultivator that has taken shape.

They are precisely the humans who have been abandoned by humans.

If these hidden dangers are not resolved, even if Bai Ju saves the base and leads Xiao Yao to find a way for human cultivation, he still cannot stabilize this world in a short period of time.

What Xiao Yao wanted in this life was the future of mankind, so Bai Ju decided to earn him a stable future.

"Becoming an overlord...what does it mean?" A Lang looked at Bai Ju hesitantly, paused, and then added in confusion, "You should know that humans nowadays are almost at the bottom of the food chain, not overlords."

Bai Ju held on to the long thorns on the carapace with one hand and sat cross-legged next to A Lang: "You have no doubt at all whether any of the abandoned children like you will survive?"

Alang was about to open his mouth to say no, but suddenly stopped talking.

He was quiet for a while and said: "Sometimes when we explore outside, we encounter some complexes. The messy ones look like the remains of countless species spliced ​​together. Among them, the longest-lived ones are often the longest. With a human hand, it can move more flexibly than any other complex variant."

Bai Ju didn't answer, he just looked at A Lang quietly and motioned for him to continue.

A Lang met Bai Ju's eyes, his throat slid, and finally he turned away his eyes and whispered: "It's not that I have no doubts at all."

"But humans are not the only primates...the alien hands are somewhat deformed. There is no evidence that those are really human hands, and, and they..."

Alang couldn't go on.

He actually couldn't find any excuse. Reason and intuition are at war with each other, and some questions never require proven answers.

He wanted to say that those aliens often had more than one pair of hands, maybe many, and each one looked different. People have died in droves on land and sea, and the hands of these alien species may not be those of children abandoned by the base.

But this doesn’t mean anything. It is common for deformed humans to have many hands, and people who intend to abandon children often abandon them in groups after observation. After all, a group of children attracts more attention than one child and has a higher probability of survival. Human bases have not gathered together for a long time. Now those new and active complexes do not have the real ability to reproduce. They need fresh prey to form their own unique bodies... It is impossible to find the ones buried in the ocean and the earth's crust. Rotting corpse.

Those monsters may be deformed children fused with other species, or they may be many children swallowed and combined by alien species.

When Alang went out on an adventure, he saw a mutant with human hands for the first time, and had this thought -

If he had failed the test and not stayed at the base, would his hands have been like this and become part of the limbs of those alien species?

Controlled by the consciousness of the complex, it crawls on the land with claws and teeth, hunting for the flesh and blood of wild beasts and similar species.

After calming down, Alang turned to ask Bai Ju: "Why are you asking these questions? Regardless of right or wrong, since they fell victim in the wilderness, it is not surprising that they ended up like this."

Bai Ju sighed, holding his carapace with his palms, looking up and squinting at the scorching sun in the sky: "You also know that those so-called complexes are also conscious, but the leader of consciousness may be any member of the complex. Or it could be a hybrid consciousness of all the components.”

"It's not unreasonable for humans to call themselves primates. Maybe those complexes were vague in the beginning, but don't underestimate human intelligence." Bai Ju said, "Each component in the complex has a certain independent life. , it is not impossible for the sleeping consciousness to wake up.”

Alan was silent for a moment and opened his fingers to the sun; after just a few dozen minutes of sun exposure, his skin began to become red, stinging, and even formed tiny blisters: "What can we do? The base—the base may not believe you.”

That's because the base doesn't know the seriousness of demonic cultivation yet. Bai Juxin said.

Today, the base can still fly safely in the sky, mainly because the complex or other mutated creatures have not developed too far. For large flying creatures to take off, they need a long run-up or a high-hanging hillside. Land and islands are fragmented and the terrain is much more complex, so there are few places suitable for take-off. As for the sea, flying creatures may be trapped in the ocean before the run-up is completed. The overlord Juanba Juanba has been dragged into the water; in addition, the wings and shapes of flying creatures are relatively restricted, and currently there are no overly large aerial creatures.

But once the mutated creatures enter the ranks of demon cultivators, it's a completely different matter.

If you have already cultivated demons, do you still need wings if you can’t fly? No matter how huge its body is, once the messy complex takes over the sky, based on the current base of human beings, it will be a disaster.

Bai Ju lowered his eyes: "I will discuss with Dr. Huo about the base and we will solve it. Come on, you are almost done with the sun. Go down first."

Alang turned his head and happened to see Bai Ju standing up. His curly hair brushed the strong lines of his face. The chin in his sight changed from looking straight to looking up. The scorching sunshine passed between his lips and teeth accompanied by the understatement of his words. Suddenly a bit of sharpness and even bloodthirsty flavor was added.

With his fingers tightened, this person only followed Captain Xiao to give him the illusion of being harmless.

"You will treat Captain Xiao well, right?" Alang did not stand up immediately, but asked abruptly.

"Of course." Bai Ju glanced at Alang from the end of his eyes, then jumped down from the top of the carapace, the tail of his snow-white hair flying in the air.

Inside the carapace, the atmosphere between Xiao Yao and Dr. Huo has become quite academic.

The two of them had never had any experience in family relationships in their lives. They got along according to their habits, and they seemed to have become strict and tacit partners in the laboratory.

Bai Ju and A Lang stepped in one after another, and both laughed a little when they saw it. The dry experimental vocabulary seemed to turn into thoughtful and caring words in the mouths of Dr. Huo and Xiao Yao, eliminating the little contradiction just now.

"Did you finish the sunbathing?" Hearing the two people's movements, Xiao Yao turned around and looked at him, "Alang, do you want to take a rest?"

"Yes." Bai Ju curled his lips and replied, "I'll teach him, and you and Dr. Huo can continue the discussion."

Xiao Yao nodded and continued talking to Dr. Huo. The topic seemed to be not limited to experiments.

Finding a quiet corner, Bai Ju explained the principles of cultivation to A Lang in simple and easy-to-understand terms. Now there is no Qu Lang in this shell, and his understanding has been somewhat affected. Bai Ju cannot teach him how to practice in a short time, and he will not spend a long time to follow up on his practice progress, so he can only Teach him how to judge his physical condition, adjust the strengthening process, and to what extent he can try to practice cultivation.

Alang heard that one was the head and the other was the big one.

He is not considered a scumbag. He is at least not stupid for being able to reach the captain level in the base, but the theory of cultivation is really beyond his knowledge.

"Don't be anxious, take your time." Xiao Yao didn't know when he ended his conversation with Dr. Huo and walked to A Lang, "When you are strengthened enough and can sense the energy of heaven and earth mentioned by Brother Bai, these theories will It’s a lot simpler when it’s less abstract.”

Bai Ju nodded, knowing that he couldn't digest too much, so he stopped talking: "What I said before, remember to think over the parts you can remember. If you don't understand anything, leave a message to Yaoyao and I will answer it. Just forget about things that you can't remember or may have remembered wrongly. It's not too late to learn them again in the future. Don't remember them wrongly."

Alang nodded and turned his attention to Dr. Huo standing next to Xiao Yao.

Dr. Huo coughed uncomfortably and said, "I have packed all the energy boxes. Let's set off now and meet up with the base in the shallow sea to the east in about twenty minutes."

Alang stood up and looked at Xiao Yao with some confusion: "Captain Xiao, then you won't go back to the base with us?"

Bai Ju put his arm around Xiao Yao's shoulder and answered for him: "Not for the time being. It's more suitable for him to practice outside. If you have anything to do, just send a message. After a while, Yao Yao reaches the bottleneck, we will

Back to base. "

"Oh... then be safe." Alang wanted to pat Xiao Yao's shoulder, but found that there was no place to put his hand, so he scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "Dr. Huo and I are leaving first."

Dr. Huo also said goodbye and put on his protective suit and hat again, but he hesitated to look at Xiao Yao twice.

"In short... you are outside, safety comes first." Dr. Huo said dryly, "You have made a great contribution to the advancement of the experimental process, and I will fight for higher authority for you."

Xiao Yao smiled and waved his hand: "There is no need for permissions... But Dr. Huo, you must succeed. I am waiting for your good news."

"...Okay." Dr. Huo's jaw tensed for a moment and he nodded.

It’s been too long and I’m afraid I won’t remember. Let’s sort out the tasks of this reincarnation.

Masking reagent comes out ahead of schedule, Yaoyao’s mother is rescued√

Spend more time in the sun and your health will be better. The threshold for cultivation will be obtained. Yaoyao's heterogeneous test tendencies will be interrupted. Yaoyao + Yao's father will be rescued√

The hidden dangers of evil energy are discovered in time, and the future of mankind will be √

At this point, these tasks are basically completed, so this small world can be finished. The structure is too big and it is difficult to start writing. I haven't finished writing the two pieces of meat I owe you all. I will just open a group later, so you don't have to worry about not being able to eat
