Thick, dark clouds covered the sky, making it heavy and falling straight to the sea. A storm in the distance had already pressed down on the land, pulling out all the colors from the sky and the earth, leaving only thick gray, heavy blue and dark clouds. The strong wind aroused the resistance of the waves, and the roar from the battle between the wind and the waves faintly shook the earth.
At the container terminal, from time to time there was a sharp sound when steel on the lifting frame collided, as if it was about to plunge into the cracks of the world. When Lin Sanjiu stood calmly between the huge containers, she felt in a daze, as if the world was like heaven and earth. He was the only one left in the room.
Of course, this is also because Zheng Aiai, who is following her, has been very quiet - sometimes she will suddenly break the silence like now: "How long can you hold on? It's been a night."
Lin Sanjiu looked back at her. Zheng Aiai was a little uneasy, raised her tied hands, and gently brushed the hair beside her ears.
"What I mean is... you have degenerated into an ordinary person after all." She lowered her eyelids, "Although... I don't know why you can use your evolutionary abilities as an ordinary person, but your physical fitness is still the same. There is no comparison with the Evolved. What's more, my colleagues can also take turns to change their duties and take extra rest... If you stay up with them, you won't be able to survive. I think... if you give up now, there is still a glimmer of hope."
Indeed, Lin Sanjiu was no different from an ordinary person at this moment.
Yesterday evening, when she finished the injection of adrenaline, Zheng Aiai took out an iron ball-shaped restraint from the storage tool precisely because she saw that she had completely degraded - that was obviously for dangerous elements. It is specially made. After stuffing a prisoner's hands inside, not only is there no room for movement, it is even difficult to lift his hands, because each ball-shaped restraint weighs fifty kilograms.
At that time, Lin Sanjiu was still sitting on the ground, letting her lock her hands into the ball-shaped restraints on the ground.
"Um...I'm sorry," Zheng Aiai lowered her head and said, "That's the request. After I capture you alive, I will use this thing..."
Lin Sanjiu watched as the restraints were closed and both arms fell to the ground by the black balls. She tried to raise her hands - it was difficult to even move.
"If it's too heavy for you to walk, I will help you lift it a little." Zheng Aiai said in a low voice.
"That's not necessary," Lin Sanjiu smiled softly, "Can you stand up first?"
Zheng Aiai stood up slowly and doubtfully.
"I might not be able to walk with it," Lin Sanjiu explained, "then it would be fine if I didn't bring it with me."
After a brief period of confusion, Zheng Aiai suddenly opened her eyes wide - she realized that Lin Sanjiu had a back-up plan, but she realized it a step too late. At this moment, the black mist formed in Lin Sanjiu's body The kidneys suddenly bloomed and dispersed again into a rolling and roaring thick fog, which quickly poured into her arms and hands, and finally concentrated in the palms of her hands, forming [a mutated version of the painting style with a ding].
The roar of the iron ball being exploded into countless pieces reminded Zheng Aiai in time; she hurriedly stepped back to protect her head and face, and finally she was not blinded by the flying fragments - when she put down her hands, Lin Sanjiu had already stood up from the ground, and reached out to pat the dust on his pants.
"You...you..." Zheng Aiai couldn't think of what "you" meant. She stuttered for a long time before asking: "What's going on?"
Lin Sanjiu waved her hands, feeling the black mist recede from her hands like an ebbing tide, returning to the depths of her body again, turning into a dark kidney - she could make it turn into the abilities she needed, but she couldn't. You can't order it to stay well and not go back to being a kidney.
"Well, it's a long story." She tilted her head and took a step forward. Zheng Aiai took a step back. "I lost a kidney in the last apocalyptic world. I need to take it later." When I redeemed it, I found that my original kidney was gone...all that was left to me was a 'kidney' with a texture like black mist."
Zheng Aiai seemed to have difficulty digesting this news.
"It has been in my body for so long, serving as a kidney faithfully, that I almost forgot about it...until the first time I took the adrenaline shot in this country, it Then suddenly, as if I was inspired to madness, it turned into mist and filled my whole body."
Lin Sanjiu sighed softly. "At that time, because my abilities in all aspects suddenly deteriorated by one-third, I was frustrated and didn't think carefully about what was going on. Until one day, I Suddenly I thought of a nonsense sentence."
Zheng Aiai was fascinated by what she heard. She obviously didn't expect to hear such a sentence. She forgot to step back for a moment and asked: "What nonsense?"
"Yes, it's the most obvious fact that has always been in front of you," Lin Sanjiu smiled at her. "It's just nonsense when you say it - precisely because it is too obvious, it becomes a shadow under the lamp. I have never understood it. Think about it carefully. Although this thing plays the role of a kidney, it is not actually a kidney."
There is no kidney in the world that can dissolve into mist, travel up and down the body, and then condense back into a kidney. So, the answer is a very simple nonsense: the nature of the black mist itself determines it It can be transformed into the shape of a kidney and perform the function of the kidney in the position of the kidney.
The next question naturally falls into place. Since it can be transformed into a kidney, can it be transformed into something else? For example...evolutionary ability?
After careful thinking and experiments, Lin Sanjiu discovered that her luck could be regarded as the greatest of misfortunes. If she had lost a lung instead of a kidney, then even the hospital could have used black mist to create a lung. She is still meaningless to her current situation: once the black mist takes shape, it will not change easily. In other words, after turning into something, the black mist will honestly take the form of that thing. It will continue to exist and will not be changed midway.
"The only reason why the black mist was activated was because I injected adrenaline, and it happened to be a kidney at that time." Lin Sanjiu smiled and continued: "If it transformed into lungs, heart, liver... So no matter how much adrenaline I inject, it will only cause the deterioration of the ability, but it will not cause the black mist to have any reaction. It just happened to be such a coincidence... I really want to thank you for suggesting that we inject epinephrine."
Zheng Aiai was stunned when she heard this, and finally sighed: "I thought I was doing you a favor by telling you the news... but I didn't expect that I would help you in this way."
"But for a long time, this discovery did not bring me any substantial help."
Lin Sanjiu shook her head, and her kidneys once again dissipated into black mist at her second thought, filling her hands and feet; this time, the black mist imitated the physical strength she had lost - it restored
It was Lin Sanjiu's level of ability at the moment when adrenaline hit her.
"The activated black mist swept through every cell and every ability of mine. Even my card library was filled with black mist... After analyzing it, Han Suiping and I both thought that it was probably memorizing it at that time.
I have created my ability form so that I can use it in the future." Lin Sanjiu said while slowly approaching Zheng Aiai. "But no matter what I try, the black mist kidney is still a kidney, but it just refuses to change into an evolutionary ability.
Let me use it."
Zheng Aiai knew that her evolutionary ability was now difficult to use in front of her. She swallowed lightly and raised her hand to call out a long stick.
"Why?" She raised the long stick with both hands and held it in front of her face and asked.
"It's very simple," Lin Sanjiu smiled and jumped off the ground with her feet. The first time she took adrenaline, her degradation was not too serious; the black mist churning in her blood vessels recreated the level of ability that was enough
What makes most evolvers in this world find it difficult to resist - "Because my own abilities are still there, and there is no room for it to be simulated."
When the words rang out, she had turned into a black shadow, hovering over Zheng Aiai's head from mid-air; the long stick hurriedly hit her face to face, and even made the sound of gold and stone when it broke through the air. It was obvious that Zheng Aiai was
There was no mercy this time.
When Lin Sanjiu was fighting, her body was like water. She turned at an angle that the human body could hardly achieve, stretched out her hand to hold the long stick, used it to borrow strength in mid-air, twisted her body, and kicked her
He pointed at Zheng Aiai's head - when the latter leaned forward and fell with a muffled sound, she also fell to the ground at the same time, with the long stick pressed against the young girl's throat. The whole process was neat and tidy and took only five minutes.
Second.
"Look, didn't I also vacate the position of a kidney before it could be transformed into a kidney?" She said softly, "Thanks to you...I have no ability now. I think
Let it be simulated into anything, it can be simulated into anything."
Not to mention the level of combat power and the huge disparity in combat ability, Zheng Aiai first lacked the most important thing in fighting: motivation. She originally resisted this battle, and when she found that she could not beat the opponent, she almost naturally accepted it.
After losing, Lin Sanjiu was turned into a hostage.
However, Zheng Aiai fell into this matter and was soon discovered by other evolvers who were investigating the situation.
After receiving the news, the evolvers sent by various countries to assist them all ended their patrols and searches in the Tongdi Pier and changed their strategy: they surrounded the Tongdi Pier. Except for the sky above them and the sea behind them, they seemed to be unstoppable.
Lin Sanjiu had to have nowhere to go.
After the two sides tested each other, clashed, and finally stood in a stalemate all night, when the morning fell on the world, the sky and the earth were silent, and a storm was coming.
On the dark sea where the waves were getting stronger, the moored freighters had long since disappeared under the cover of night. The iron-gray behemoths seemed to have emerged from the dark clouds or the gray-white mist, quietly covering the ground.
On the sea surface; the weapons and gun barrels on their bodies have unsurprisingly cut off the sea route. From time to time, armed helicopters pass overhead, and the sound of propellers rumbles in the wind.
Zheng Aiai's expression became more and more serious and she spoke less and less. Lin Sanjiu could more or less guess what she was thinking about and why she persuaded her to give up.
"You think I can't survive, it's just your hope." She turned her head and looked at the sea where the warships gathered, and said softly: "You are very scared now, aren't you? You are afraid that I can really survive."
Zheng Aiai opened her mouth.
"You have no ill intentions towards me, I know."
Lin Sanjiu didn't look at her and said: "It's not me you're afraid of. Your country succumbed to pressure and sent people to deal with us evolutionaries... Then when you yourself become an obstacle, will your country no longer To succumb to the same pressure once and treat you as an abandoned child? In the final analysis, the difference between you and me is just a different landing position."
When she looked back, the color on Zheng Aiai's face had faded.
"Don't worry," Lin Sanjiu smiled softly. It couldn't be said whether it was a bitter smile or a sigh. "You are so lucky to be able to find a hometown in this vast world. I will not test your motherland like this. Human affairs in this world can withstand it. There are too few tests, so why bother pushing to that point?"
Zheng Aiai was stunned.
Black mist spread from her body. She stretched out her hand and broke the rope that tied Zheng Aiai's hands, and whispered: "Let's go."
Lin Sanjiu turned her head.
In the distance are the coming wind and rain, the gathering warships and the waves waiting to swallow her up.
"...The next battle is between me and this world."
