Chapter 159 The Researcher Female Protagonist in the End of the World (1)
"Whoosh!"
A sharp, sharp knife-like object with a metallic luster came from a short distance, carrying a strong wind.
At the moment when the sharp serrated blade was about to fall, Lin Zhen subconsciously focused his attention and pointed at the incoming object. The sword energy spurted out and collided with the rapidly approaching black object.
The moment the two collided, the black oily shell broke open instantly, and thick and sticky black oily objects sprayed out in all directions.
Lin Zhen quickly stepped back to avoid these strange-looking dark liquids.
006 couldn't help but whistle: "Wow, is it so exciting when you first come here?"
Within three seconds of entering, a strange creature attacked, which was really exciting. Anyone with a lower force value would have been burped on the spot.
Lin Zhen quickly looked around to confirm that the area around him was still relatively safe, and then he had time to take a closer look at the dark thing on the ground.
She carefully avoided the black liquid flowing on the ground, circled around the suspected creature that had completely died, and said uncertainly: "This thing looks a bit like... a mantis."
The two dark sickle-shaped forelimbs in front of this creature are indeed very reminiscent of a praying mantis, but it is at least two or three meters tall from head to toe, and its whole body is covered with shiny black armor-like oil shells.
Each part is also very weird, making people feel uncomfortable just by looking at it.
The black liquid flowing out of its body, which can be temporarily considered to be the creature's "blood", exudes a strong fishy stench, and it becomes stronger and stronger as time goes by.
Lin Zhen frowned and looked at the monster's body on the ground. He suddenly turned his head and heard a strange buzzing sound coming from the wind: "There is movement."
006: "Huh? Where's the movement?"
With no time to explain so much, Lin Zhen quickly took two steps back and hid behind a tree not far away before those voices approached. To be on the safe side, he also carefully performed a concealment technique.
Soon, those buzzing sounds were getting closer and closer, and countless piercing noises came and went in this space, making people's eardrums hurt.
Lin Zhen stood behind the tree and watched a dozen creatures that were exactly the same as the strange creature just now flying to the open space. They opened their ferocious mouthparts and greedily devoured the corpse of the same kind that died on the ground.
, and quickly devoured it.
By the time they flapped their wings and left again, there was nothing left on the ground, so clean that it was impossible to tell what had happened there.
Lin Zhen looked heavy: "006, show me the world line."
She must first figure out what the world is like.
006 quickly called up the world line he had just downloaded: "The world line is coming!"
Lin Zhen's eyes quickly scanned the information on the light screen:
The world changed drastically a year ago.
The world could barely be considered peaceful at first. One day, a strange creature that had never been seen suddenly appeared in a certain country in the world.
It was a hairless bird with a dark iron skin and protruding bones all over its body.
At first, no one paid much attention to this matter. Only some netizens who came across this report on the news interface made various joking speculations:
"Wow, it's a new species! Zoologists are ecstatic!"
"Hahaha, looking at this size, the final test result is probably not an ostrich that fell into the oil, right?"
"What if it's a mutated creature produced after being contaminated by nuclear wastewater?"
"Fellow Taoists, to be honest, this is actually the mount of me, Ancestor Netherworld. It was accidentally lost a few days ago. If you find it, please return it to me in time. To express your gratitude, Ancestor can pass on your ten years of skills.
Help you embark on the path of spiritual cultivation!"
"Ancestor, you are too stingy!"
…
People at the time had no idea what a terrible thing it was.
It wasn't until all the people who had been in contact with this strange bird had skin hardening that someone finally realized something was wrong: "Stop contacting this creature immediately, and the laboratory urgently closed all exits!"
But it was too late.
After a few days, the limbs of all people who came into contact with the strange bird were distorted to a certain extent, and they gradually became closer to the appearance of the strange bird.
According to those who later went to clean up the laboratory, the scene in the laboratory at that time was simply like hell. They did not dare to touch any items in the laboratory, and wore thick protective clothing all the way through, but found no traces left behind.
No matter how valuable the information is, the laboratory will be blown up in the end.
This seems to be just the beginning.
After that, many similar weird creatures appeared all over the world, some as tall as a floor, and some as small as a fingernail, but they all have one thing in common - they have been in contact with these creatures.
People will eventually mutate into such creatures.
People call these creatures "heretics".
Moreover, these heretics are still evolving. In this short period of one year, the heretics have evolved various abilities, and some have even possessed extremely high intelligence.
They have learned to hide among normal humans, and then deliver fatal blows to those around them at the right time.
This behavior of heretics has caused great panic among people, making it difficult for everyone to trust others around them. Who knows whether the other party may be a heretic in disguise?
Fortunately, humans have also quickly found a way to distinguish heretics from normal humans: direct bloodletting, just prick the fingertips with a needle. Those with bright red blood are humans, and those with black viscous liquid are heretics. It is simple and convenient.
It's easy to tell.
So now humans all over the world have become accustomed to pricking themselves from time to time to prove that they have not become heretics. Some people who prick themselves too frequently have their fingers swollen.
Lin Zhen raised his hand and took a look, and sure enough he saw some dense needle holes on the fingers and back of the body.
"Tsk, it's simply torture." Lin Zhen looked at the marks made by the needles and said, "In a normal world, people like this would probably be arrested as drug addicts."
What a very scary world.
Lin Zhen put this matter aside for the time being and inquired: "Why do those so-called heretics appear in this world? Where do they come from?"
006 did a quick search and told Lin Zhen the answer: "I found it! It's because of genetic experiments! These creatures are all the products of gene fusion experiments!"
Lin Zhen touched his chin in confusion: Gene fusion? Well, it’s a term I’ve never heard of.
