Chapter 663 Past Life
Chapter 663 Previous life
Dragon City was also trembling in the war. Although the city had complete fortifications, numerous abilities, almost endless weapons and ammunition, and even a large amount of energy and food reserves, it was a city after all, and it was a huge city from the old era. Thousands of abilities were scattered in it, just like sand was scattered into water, only a few ripples were seen, but the areas that could not be protected were the majority. Therefore, a few minutes after the war began, the entire Dragon City fell into a sea of fire. Scattered micro missiles passed through the defense circle and exploded in the city. Each could easily destroy several ancient and historical buildings.
The earth was trembling constantly. Except for a few closely guarded areas, there were no complete buildings in Dragon City. Passephine's private hospital belonged to a few lucky ones. The surrounding blocks had become ruins, but there was only a corner missing on the roof. The private hospital was covered with dense layers of mechanical insects, and burning mechanical insects fell from time to time in the air. Although many of them fell by her, there were almost no one directly hitting her.
The central laboratory was already dark. Although it was underground, the ground was also shocked. Glassware fell from time to time on the shelves beside the walls, smashing on the ground. Some of the petri dishes were empty, while others were filled with liquid.
Xue squatted at the corner of the table, like a leopard cat. It turned its head and stared at the row of shaking racks. When a petri dish broke on the ground, it immediately supported its body and seemed very nervous.
"Mom...Mom, the bottle that was holding that thing was broken!" Xue actually said in a human voice. This was the voice of a little girl who seemed a little tender, and it was a sound made by the vibration of the scales on her body. However, when she heard her tone, she seemed a little afraid of the bottle.
In the center of the table, Helen was staring at the data shining like snowflakes on the light screen. Hearing the nervous voice of snow, she just looked up slightly at the shelf, and said casually: "It's okay, don't worry about it."
Xue was still nervously staring at the liquid on the ground. It was as if it had its own life, swirling rapidly, devouring everything it could touch. Whether it was culture liquid, inorganic glass fragments, or even metal and plastic floors were among its devouring range. No matter what it was, it was decomposed and digested in the liquid and then converted into part of the liquid itself. This devouring ability was very familiar to Xue, just like seeing her own ecology. Her devouring ability was no less than these liquids at all, but she would not swallow whatever she encountered without a choice like it.
Snow is very picky about food.
Beside Helen, she formed an extraordinary dependence invisibly, as if nothing would be difficult for Helen. Xue just needed to be obedient. Therefore, the nearly 100 secondary thinking centers and a third-level thinking center loaded in her little head had never been used much. In normal times, Xue was already very familiar with Rafi and Kotis, who could play at will, so she forgot the look that when she saw her for the first time, Rafi and Kotis looked like she saw a natural enemy. Just like she was staring at the pool of liquid on the ground now.
It was not a pool of ordinary liquid. As long as it was given enough nutrition, it could grow rapidly. At the same time, it would choose the most adaptable form according to the environment, and then evolve wisdom. As long as wisdom was enlightened, it would not be worse than those wise men of human beings. In fact, when Xue broke away from instinct for the first time, she was still in the petri dish. At that time, she had an IQ of more than 160, and according to the standards of the new era. Then Xue's wisdom developed rapidly, and the built thinking centers successfully amplified her wisdom. When the glass dish was broken, the pool of liquid suddenly gained vitality. I don't know what Helen used to, and she could limit such a fierce and terrible life with an ordinary glass bottle. But at that moment, Xue's most real feeling was that she saw her younger brother.
But unlike this beach of liquid on the ground, every evolution and growth of snow is planned by Helen. At least so far, the speed of snow's strength has increased far exceeding normal growth and evolution. The adaptability to the environment is not achieved overnight, and it requires continuous trial and error. In this process, even super life has a great possibility of falling. Although the beach of snow is lucky to be energetic, it loses Helen's interest and cannot be treated with any care. For some reason, the word "illegitimate child" suddenly appeared in snow's consciousness. Yes, the treatment of this beach of things is an illegitimate child. But even an illegitimate child is definitely not uncommon in human history, so snow's sense of crisis has not been much reduced, and a strong sense of combat has emerged.
Xue has no love for her brothers and sisters. On the contrary, she has hatred that is no less than natural enemies. When she was just a small group of cells, she knew very well that she had dozens of brothers and sisters, and whoever grew the fastest and best would have the opportunity to survive. Although the competition satisfies Xue, the process was very unpleasant. She once locked in a petri dish with more than a dozen brothers and sisters. At that time, Xue's instinct prompted her to start constantly attacking other brothers and devour the other as her own nutrients. Brothers who also have super life genes are the best supplements to each other.
However, the illegitimate child was in crisis next. The things it swallowed were not very helpful to it. The nutrients it absorbed were far less than its own consumption. It also realized this and began to fall into a violent state, desperately expanding its body, trying to seize everything possible to swallow. However, nothing could make up for its rapid growth. Even the snow could see that it was eager to grow, but it was dominated by instinct and did not know this. In a blink of an eye, the liquid began to turn gray and white, and quickly dried up, turning into powder, and as the airflow in the laboratory began to fly around.
"But...mom, isn't that important?" Xue always stared at her brother. Of course she knew what it was going to do. After realizing the existential crisis, the illegitimate child chose to form countless roe deer and flew over and over again. Once a suitable carrier was found, it could be resurrected. It could be spread through air, water and contact, but it was fatal to any virus or bacteria that had ever been around. At the microcellular level, it could form a super plague itself.
"It's okay, I can't die many people. Besides, there are not many people who can die." Helen said without raising her head.
"But..." Xue was still worried that she also liked humans now and often regarded herself as a human being, so she naturally did not want to see the birth of a catastrophe.
Helen knew what Xue was thinking and said lightly: "It will not proliferate infinitely."
Helen's tone was faint, but Xue suddenly shrank into a ball. She knew what Helen's words meant. The most terrifying thing for a super life like her was high-speed evolution and life that could not know the end. Of course, most of their vitality was consumed in constant evolution and mutation. However, after hearing Helen's words, Xue suddenly felt a little chilled. Is there such a switch in an invisible corner of her body? As long as it is turned off, her evolution will reach its end?
As if he knew what Xue was thinking, Helen raised her head rarely, looked at Xue, and said, "You are different. You are my child, so the gene replication restriction device in your body has been lifted."
I am the child of my mother... Xue first felt great happiness, and then her mood sank slightly. Isn't the illegitimate son also Helen's child? They not only have the same mother, but also the same father. But now, in Helen's understatement, he has decided on the fate of the illegitimate son.
I was chosen by my mother... Xue thought.
After re-understanding of his identity, Xue's dependence on Helen was slightly weakened, and the sense of crisis suddenly increased. She decided to do something to share Helen's worries, and the best topic in front of her was the fire-like war on the ground.
"Mom, the war above is not over yet. Do you want me to help? Or, let's leave here?" Xue asked tentatively.
"No need, the war above is not important... Oh, I mean, its importance is being evaluated, and I may have more important things to do. As for leaving, of course not, I like this place and will not leave easily. Unless..." Helen raised her head and looked at the empty darkness in front of her, as if she was thinking about something, and then said softly: "Unless there is a... very special reason."
Xue was very smart, so she didn't ask anything for a special reason, but fell to Helen and stared at the light screen where the data was changing. She was preparing to analyze the data to help Helen relieve some of the burden. The thinking centers in her little head were not decorations. However, when she began to try to keep up with the changing data, all the thinking centers began to emit high temperatures in an instant, and they all entered a state of overload!
"Ah!" Xue let out a low cry, shook her head hard, and gave up unrealistic ideas. She looked at the light screen in surprise, and she never expected that the data leaked above was so fast. You must know that her processing ability is now comparable to that of the supercomputers of the old era, but she could not even intervene in Helen's research! So Xue admired her mother more and became more aweful.
Helen put her left hand on the table, and dozens of thin wires were inserted directly on her fingers. In this way, she actually connected herself with her intelligence brain. Now, Helen's brain has become a core processor.
"Mom, what are you studying?" Xue finally couldn't control her curiosity and asked.
"What is the most dangerous enemy of mankind."
Xue nodded and leaned obediently, but she still had doubts in her heart. Isn’t the most dangerous enemy of human beings the boundless machinery outside? Even Xue himself felt deeply afraid of their pure number.
"... Could it be the apostle and his mechanical legion?" Helen pondered. Behind the simple numbers, countless possible scenes were calculated and deduced, and finally pointed to this answer. But Helen's heart was still heavy, and she always felt that she seemed to have ignored something.
She calmed down and changed the preface condition of deduction to "What is the most dangerous enemy of this planet". However, before entering the condition, a vague intuition made Helen feel the coldness involuntarily, subconsciously trying to wrap herself tightly. After hesitating for a whole second, she decided to start deduction of this condition and changed the target range to "all".
No matter what kind of answer it is, let it come if it is time to come...I'm ready. Helen thought silently.
Deduction seemed difficult and long, but with the previous data as the basis, the new result came out within a few minutes. Helen closed her eyes and smiled bitterly.
According to the level of danger, Su, the unknown apostle, the Spider Queen, Helen himself, then the apostle who launched the Mechanical Legion, and then Xue and Su's other children.
The data on the light screen stopped scrolling, Helen sat quietly in the darkness, and after a moment, she sighed tiredly.
"Mom?" Xue shouted softly.
"I'm very tired, let me sleep for a while." Helen waved her hand, stood up, and walked to the next room. There was a bed there, and there was nothing but that was used by Helen during the study interval. However, in the past so many years, this bed has been used very few times.
Helen lay down on the bed, feeling only irresistible fatigue. She lay quietly for a while and then fell asleep.
Xue was shocked again. She didn't expect Helen to actually go to sleep. The ground was still in full swing! God knew that a missile would hit her here. The private hospital was not big, just a micro missile was enough. The war had been going on for almost half an hour, and it was a miracle that the private hospital was not destroyed. Xue didn't think that the miracle would happen again, and she did not have the mysterious attainments of more than 11th level, so this world would not favor her. Xue knew very well how fierce the battle on the ground had reached. It stayed here to accompany Helen. In fact, it was preparing to protect Helen with her own body once it was shot. Helen could not withstand the crushing of dozens of tons of rubble.
But why did Helen go to bed at this time?
"What should I do?" Xue Fei quickly turned around in circles, and the arthropods kept drawing long sparks on the ground. She finally made up her mind, climbed to the bed, gently touched Helen's hand with her mouth, and then turned around and rushed to the ground along the passage.
As soon as she appeared from the rooftop of a private hospital, Xue saw several micro missiles flying towards her! The missiles became bigger and bigger in Xue Fu's eyes, and also ignited the flames deep in her pupils accordingly!
Xue's arthropod bounced, and her small body floated up in the air in violation of common sense, and then flashed in the air! After drawing several fold lines like lightning, Xue appeared on the rooftop again, stood up high, and roared angryly at the densely pack of mechanical insects like black clouds in the sky! Her voice was tender, but it was not as simple as it sounded. The ultra-high frequency shock waves quickly spread out, directly cutting into the communication channel of the mechanical insect swarm, and conveying her meaning to the intelligent terminals of large and small mechanical insects. As for whether they understand it, Xue doesn't care.
