Adaptation is one of the reasons why organisms can survive after encountering various changes.
For lower organisms, evolution is complete.
But for higher organisms, especially those that encounter changes one after another, evolution alone can no longer keep up with the gradient of adaptation.
The guards had realized that a simple laser gun could not kill Asakura Riku, so the blue light emitted from the gun's muzzle solidified into a sword, and they all rushed towards him with their swords in hand.
Asakura Riku's hand was attached to the dark power, the claws of Geed were covering his hand, and red evil eye projections appeared in his eyes.
He rushed forward, drew his claw forward and behind him, and threw out the light blade. The person in front took the blow solidly. At the same time, there was a collapse sound behind him. He took time to look behind him, and was shocked to find that
It was a wall that had been chopped down and collapsed by the claws of Geed, and it seemed as if the wall appeared out of thin air, as well as the electric current flowing around the wall.
Inside the large hole in the wall is an endless desert, while above the wall, the left and right sides are empty, and looking further into the distance is a metal shell.
...stereoscopic images?
When he was stunned, he felt the sound of wind and movement from all angles behind him. The guards began to take action again, slashing from above, cutting across the middle, and slashing diagonally from both sides.
He was surrounded by a semicircle, and the wind of the knife was already moving before the blade could reach him. It was obviously intended to cut off his escape route to the outside world.
Asakura Riku could already feel the numbness of electricity rushing through his back.
He roared, and the strength of his body burst out again - yes, roaring, this does not seem to be in line with the behavior of people on earth, but no matter what, people almost don't care what these leftovers do.
The power in his body exploded outwards, turning into an arc and spreading outwards. He didn't feel anything yet. He could only see that when the guards collided with the arc, they were immediately blown up and flew into the air, and fell to the ground without cover.
On the ground.
The arc was still spreading, and the guards scattered on the ground were knocked away again.
At this time, Asakura Riku turned around and saw another person wearing a helmet and mask.
He was pointing the hole of the laser gun at himself, the laser emission was already close in front of him, and the arc impact in the distance was spreading in his direction, but he still stood upright.
Blue light exploded in front of his eyes, and the last thing Riku Asakura saw was the shattered helmet and the face of the person behind the helmet.
A beautiful and sad woman.
…
…
As if something shone on his face, his mind was foggy, and Asakura Riku opened his eyes with some difficulty.
What happened before...?
He sat up immediately.
This is an empty room, the stone door leading to other roads is closed, and in the distance outside the window is the metal sky.
Has he entered the air corridor? On the other side, the metal eyeball is very close, as if staring at him.
——Just staring at him! And even blinking!
Asakura Riku rubbed his eyes and realized that the eyes were no longer made of metal, but a projection.
The projection gradually revealed the whole picture, which was a man wearing armor.
The man in the armor spoke: "Are you the one who destroyed the wall of Prosthetic Eye City and caused the residents of the city to escape?"
The armored man's voice was gentle and unfathomable. Although it was a question, there was no hint of questioning, and there was no affectation like Tregear's.
But Asakura Riku felt this made him angry.
What and what?
Prosthetic Eye City? That’s really impressive.
He shouted: "You attacked me first! You sealed my power indiscriminately and then kidnapped me here for what on earth!"
The armored man was obviously stunned: "Sealing your power? You may have misunderstood, young man, I didn't do that. I won't even take away your equipment, so how can I seal your power?"
Equipment...Asakura Lu touched his body. He found that the Geed Sublimation Device, Ultra Capsule, and even Xiao Che's mobile phone were all on him. It was true that they had not been taken away.
"There's no need to do this. Do you know where this place is?"
The armored man didn't wait for him to say anything else, and began to ask and answer himself: "This is a gathering place for evil people in the universe. There are interstellar wanted criminals, killers, and mercenaries everywhere. They all came here spontaneously. Who do you think you are? So much so that you can let the evil people gather here."
Am I targeting you specifically?"
Asakura Riku's expression changed from shock to anger: "Did you plan them to appear here? What on earth do you want to do?!"
"Have you heard of the Earth? Do you know about the poison there?"
"I am from Earth." Asakura Riku became even more angry: "You want to use these evil people to refine Gu? What exactly do you want to do!"
"Earthling? Your body structure...heh," the armored man's voice became weird, and then immediately returned to normal: "Whatever you think you are, that's what you are."
"I am indeed preparing to start a survival battle to elect the strongest villain. I will grant the strongest weapon to the person who survives to the end. Everyone is here for this. It seems that you are completely unaware, but your strength
It just so happens that the target has been reached again.”
"I'm not curious about why you're here. I just want to say that since you're here, let's join the war!"
"Only those who become Gu can survive."
"The strongest weapon?" Asakura Riku's expression flickered. At this time, he finally thought of something.
"Yes, the most powerful weapon, the seeds of the Tree of Life, is a genetic weapon capable of destroying a race. Are you interested?"
Riku Asakura's pupils shrank suddenly: "Are you the weapons merchant Ferraris?!"
"It seems that you are not ignorant." Ferraris seemed to suddenly become interested: "What else do you know?"
I also know that you told the Galactic Empire that it was for peace...
Asakura Riku felt his teeth were sore, angry and sore.
He couldn't help but say: "Reacting violence with violence will only cause greater casualties. Why don't you understand such a simple truth?"
He didn't even mean to question, but after Ferraris heard this, his expression suddenly changed: "Who are you?"
Still not waiting for Ged's reply, he immediately turned off the projection, leaving only one eye in the distance looking at him silently.
With a bang, the stone door slowly opened, revealing layers of steps going up and down.
"...It's really Gu refining. But didn't Xiao Che say that Ferraris would give a share of all the weapons? Why did he say that it would only be given to the strongest person left?"
Asakura Riku yelled: "Hey! Ferraris! Didn't you say it's not finished yet? Did you hear me? What on earth do you want to do!"
No one answered him.
Asakura Lu held back his breath and chose the upward path.
At the very least, you can't sit still and wait for death when things happen.
On the other side, it wasn't that Ferraris didn't want to answer, but that as soon as he finished asking, the projection was forcibly turned off.
At the same time, another young man said: "Who is he? Didn't you invite him? He is the orthodox successor of the Galactic Empire. You have discovered his abnormality, and you can still treat him as a normal poison. Who will give it to you?"
