——"From the moment they have the idea of eating humans, they are no longer human."
What Ji Zhan said is right.
When Tu Uulu first saw his two daughters appearing to be assimilated by monsters and eating humans, Tu Uulu knew that his daughters were actually dead, and only the monsters survived.
But he was unwilling to accept this fact.
He still deceives himself into thinking that Aji and Al are still human beings, but they are now influenced by monsters to kill others. They just have no choice but to...
When Aji and Al are full, they will turn back into normal children, but whenever they cry out they are hungry, they will still look like monsters.
In order to keep Aji and Al alive as humans, Tuuru began to indulge them in cannibalism.
Aji and Al are not monsters that evolved under the influence of the kp-26 meteorite, but are existences that mutated due to eating monster crystal nuclei, so there is still a little bit of human consciousness left in their brains. The impact of the two consciousnesses
Together, they sometimes fall into a state of confusion and their strength is greatly reduced.
When Aji and Al also failed to kill someone, Tuuru had to kill them for them in order to protect them.
The wild world is like this, either you die or I die.
Whether it is humans or monsters, they may be enemies.
After helping Aji and Al kill people, Tuuru was covered in blood and watched with despair as they gnawed on human corpses cruelly.
He didn't know how long this kind of life would last. He just wanted to let his daughters live one more day, one more day...
Later, when he couldn't hold it any longer, Tuuru also swallowed the crystal core. He thought that he would not have to suffer so much if he became a monster.
After swallowing the crystal core, his consciousness seemed to fall into a sea of fire, burning everything in him, including his body, mind, and consciousness.
When he was about to be lost in the sea of fire, Tuwulu seemed to hear Aji and Al calling him again. Relying on his longing for his daughters, Tuwulu stepped out of the sea of fire.
Without even realizing it, he became an evolver.
…
Tuwulu held the dying Aji and Al and told Ji Zhan and his party the reason for the matter. The rough and strong man knelt in front of them. The freeze-dried tears and blood made his face look miserable, but he
The faith in his eyes remains firm.
Tuwulu kowtowed and begged Jing Sa in a choked voice, "Please let them go, please let my two daughters go. This happened because of me, it's all my fault."
, you kill me, kill me..."
Even if Aji and Al have become like this, Tuuru, as a father, still wants them to survive. No matter they are humans or monsters, there is never any reason for his partiality towards them.
Jing Sa lowered her eyes and looked at Tu Uulu who was kneeling at their feet. Zhao Ziwei and Qi Huan next to them both looked away and did not speak for a long time.
When a father faces his daughter and shoots him, he cannot make up his mind in an instant.
Until Jing Sa spoke in a low voice, "They are no longer human."
However, as soon as Jing Sa finished speaking, Tu Uulu suddenly raised his head and shouted at the top of his lungs: "No, they are! They are still human beings!"
The veins on Tuwulu's forehead popped out, and his eyes were bloodshot. His whole body was shaking because of the excitement. He tried hard to argue: "They... they are not monsters. Monsters have no self-awareness and no thoughts, but Aji and
Al has!”
Jing Sa did not empathize with Tu Uulu's pain. He just asked in an extremely indifferent voice: "How do you prove it?"
Tu Uulu raised his head and met Jing Sa's eyes. It felt like there was a thorn stuck in his throat at this moment. He gasped hard, and then uttered a few words with difficulty: "The fact that I am still alive is the best proof!"
"When it was the coldest, Aji and Al couldn't find food. They were starving and miserable...but...but they never hurt me!!!"
Monsters in a hungry state are irrational, and they are prey to both evolved humans and ordinary humans.
But Aji and Al never hurt Tuuru.
"Dad...Dad, dad...we are in so much pain, we are so hungry..."
Aji and Al in their arms said to Tuwuru in a weak voice, and then looked at Jing Sa and the others again, their bloody mouths split open, and they repeated: "It smells so good... it smells so good..."
Feeling that Aji and Al wanted to struggle out of his arms, Tuwulu hugged them tightly and cried and begged: "Don't move, don't move... Dad, please, don't move anymore..."
Aji and Al, who were anxious to eat, couldn't listen to Tuuru's words at all. Instead, they bit off a piece of meat from Tuuru's arm in order to break free from Tuuru's imprisonment.
Tuwulu was in pain and subconsciously let go of his hand, and Aji and Al rushed over.
Their arms are still connected together, and a quarter of their bodies still retain their monster appearance, and there is a faint tendency to grow again.
Jing Sa and the others retreated to a safe distance and surrounded Aji and Al.
"No, don't hurt them! Please!" Tuuru struggled to stand up and wanted to run towards Aji and Al.
Aji and Al raised their heads and screamed, and the parts of their bodies that had been assimilated by the monster began to grow again.
"Kill them." Zhao Ziwei finally gave the order. It was not that they did not want to save these two children, but that when things had developed to this point, death was a kind of relief for them.
Just when the three were about to take action, two gunshots rang out.
Aji and Albi, who had lost their crystal cores, had their heads pierced by bullets. Blood gurgled from the holes on their foreheads. They all widened their immature eyes, and then slowly fell down.
Before their appearance was assimilated by the monster, Ji Zhan let them die as humanly as possible.
Ji Zhan, who was standing upstairs, put down the gun in her hand and looked at the two dead children with gloomy eyes. From an angle that no one could see, her right hand that fired was also trembling faintly.
When Ji Zhan first worked as a teacher in the outer base, she found that children were always favored. No matter how desperate the outside world was, no matter how cruel the adults knew the world was, all adults would have a tacit understanding to protect children.
They will tell these children that the outside world is beautiful and that as long as they have enough courage, this apocalypse will end.
Even when Ji Zhan faced those children, he would blurt out to them: "It will get better in the future."
At that time, she could not explain this phenomenon in words, until Teacher Shi, who worked with her at school and was older than her, said to her: "Because we are human beings, and these children are the future of mankind."
But Ji Zhan now shot the future with his own hands.
After Tuuru saw his two daughters fall, he knelt on the ground and screamed in despair:
