My Endless Life

Chapter 148 Is this called evolution?

Aina didn't know the cause of the incident.

She only remembered that one day, everyone went crazy.

First, the guests turned into monsters with black blood, and then the people attacked by these monsters also turned into monsters.

Aina and her friends hid in the wine cellar of the tavern for a long time, but they couldn't wait for the city guards.

In order to find food, Aina's friend left first and never came back.

Aina herself couldn't help but come out to find food, but just after she went out, she ran into Li Qi and his group.

This is all Aina knows.

"Monsters..."

Li Qi looked at the monsters on the ground with black blood flowing.

He walked in front of a monster and looked at the gap of the monster.

This was a monster that was cut in half by Li Qi. The internal organs were clearly visible at the break of its body, but what Li Qi cared about was that in a part of the monster's internal organs, he saw gears.

Yes, that kind of gear.

The gears were not much different from those on the puppets made by Li Qi.

Jinghua's body is now mostly made up of this gear structure.

But these monsters have fewer gears, and if you don't look closely, you can't see them at all.

The gears are mostly distributed in the spine and chest. Li Qi didn't care about anything and cut open a corpse in front of everyone to check the "heart" of these people.

He originally guessed that these people might be artificial people in another sense.

But after checking, Li Qi found that except for the gears, other parts, including the heart, were no different from the internal organs of ordinary people, which made him give up this idea.

Using the cleaning technique to clean his bloody palms, Li Qi shook it lightly, and the blood was separated and all fell to the ground.

He took out a handkerchief to wipe his right hand, turned his head and looked at Aina:

"Are you sure that they suddenly became like this?"

"Sure!"

Aina said very confidently:

"There was no sign, no warning, just a few seconds, the person who changed first became such a monster."

Then one spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred... just like a mutant zombie virus, infecting everyone in this block.

Aina only knows so much, and she doesn't know more.

She is just an ordinary person in the survivors. There are tens of thousands of ordinary people like her in the survivors.

The only ones who can really know everything are probably the patriarch of the survivors and the guards around the patriarch.

If you want to find out, you can only go to them.

"Your patriarch... where do they live?"

Li Qi asked Aina.

Since only the patriarch and related personnel know everything, then go to their door and ask, maybe you can meet someone from the Light Chasing Society.

But speaking of the Light Chasing Society, since Li Qi entered this disorderly city, he has never seen anyone from the Light Chasing Society, and he doesn't know where they ran to.

According to reason, the disorderly city has become like this, and it should be the work of the Light Chasing Society.

But there is no trace of the Light Chasing Society.

"The patriarch... the place where the patriarch lives is a long way from here. There was originally an elevator that should be able to go directly there, but... now I'm not sure if the elevator can still operate."

Aina explained.

Their current location is still at the edge of the City of Disorder, or more precisely, near the entrance.

The fastest way to go to other floors of the City of Disorder is to take the elevator. Otherwise, it is unknown how long it will take to walk from the periphery to the core.

More importantly, the roads inside the City of Disorder are very chaotic, especially the different directions of gravity, which makes it easier to get lost in this City of Disorder.

When Li Qi entered this city, he already had a certain impression of the "gravity" of the City of Disorder.

The gravity of this city is very strange. As long as you walk on the road with your feet on the ground, no matter how you walk, you can keep the gravity under your feet.

Even if you walk on the wall, you can keep the gravity under your feet.

But other ways, whether jumping, flying, or any other way to touch another wall or the ground, the gravity will not change.

For example, if you walk on a passage, you can walk on the ceiling and the ground.

But if you jump up from the ground and touch the ceiling, your gravity will not be transferred to the ceiling because of your jump.

You will naturally fall to your original position under the action of gravity under your feet.

Even if you touch the ceiling with your feet.

But as long as you "walk" and your feet never leave the ground, you can "walk" from the wall to the ceiling, and gravity will also be transferred.

Simply put... this is a strange place that Newton would want to blow off the coffin lid.

It is precisely because of this gravity chaos that when Li Qi and his party crossed several streets and came to this area, they could no longer tell what the normal gravity outside the city was like.

Maybe there is no change, or maybe the ground outside is actually above Li Qi and his head.

They have already changed direction.

Because of this completely irregular gravity system, it is easy to get lost if you walk rashly in this city.

Only locals can tell which way to go.

"Anyway, take us to the elevator first."

Li Qi finally decided to let Aina lead the way and let her take everyone to the elevator to see if they could go directly to the clan leader's residence.

Aina, the girl who was favored by Li Qi's suggestion, nodded and agreed without hesitation when she heard Li Qi's words.

Before leaving, Li Qi looked at Aina and said casually:

"By the way, black blood does look scary. Even if you don't turn into a monster, you will be scared to death when you see black blood flowing in your body."

Aina nodded with deep emotion:

"Yes, if I hadn't been scratched before and the normal green blood flowed out, I would have thought I had turned into a monster too."

"...What did you say just now? The color of blood is...green?"

Li Qi paused and looked at Aina.

Aina asked in surprise:

"Of course, what other color could it be? It can't be really black."

"..."

Li Qi was silent, and Ronnie stared at Aina with his eyes wide open.

Just as the atmosphere became more and more weird, Li Qi suddenly laughed:

"Yes, it can't be black anyway."

"Right."

Aina didn't think there was any problem at all. Seeing Li Qi laughing, she also smiled with a slightly red cheek.

She really didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Qi's question just now.

After all...

Blood is green, which is common knowledge in this city.

...

Aina led the way in front, and Li Qi walked to the back, walking side by side with the angel.

He separated a part of the fine silk thread from his left hand and wrapped it around the angel. The two of them completed a secret communication in this way.

"How much do you know about this city?"

Li Qi asked the angel.

When Aina said that they had green blood flowing in their bodies, Li Qi knew that this city was different from what he imagined.

Or, the survivors were not humans as Li Qi thought.

Thinking of the gears in the bodies of the monsters killed by Li Qi, Li Qi had a bold guess.

Perhaps...

The survivors in this city are actually man-made.

Or maybe it is some kind of "fog beast" that is different from humans and looks like humans.

But guesses are just guesses. To be sure, either dissect Aina directly or ask the angel.

Even if Li Qi is indifferent to Aina now, he can't do such a thing as dissecting Aina.

After all, for the transformation of Jinghua, he can use Jinghua to do too many evil things and kill too many people to convince himself, but for the dissection of Aina, Li Qi can't find a suitable reason.

No matter what, Li Qi can't really be like a non-human without taboos. Although he doesn't care about feelings, he cares about his bottom line.

If he loses his bottom line, then Li Qi is no different from a monster in human skin.

So after thinking about it, Li Qi can only choose to ask the angel.

But Angel's answer was the same as before. She calmly responded to Li Qi:

"I don't know."

"You don't have any impression at all?"

"What I remember most are the pictures and scenes before the fog zone came, so I have no impression of this city and the people in the city, but..."

Angel paused here, stretched out her finger, scratched the wall, tilted her head and said:

"I always feel that the atmosphere of this city is a little familiar."

Seeing Angel in deep thought, Li Qi took a deep breath and didn't ask about the city anymore.

He turned the topic to Aina and asked the angel:

"What do you think of the people in this city? Are they... also relics, or something similar to relics, just like the Adam I created."

"No."

The angel answered very quickly, without even thinking, and said to Li Qi:

"Their lives are still complete, I can promote their life levels, and the lives that can promote the life level, the dead things without life cannot promote the life level."

The angel paused here and added:

"However, those defective products with black blood flowing are not good, they failed to evolve."

"Wait." Li Qi instantly caught the key in the angel's words: "Failed to evolve... You mean, the essence of those monsters with black blood flowing, they become like this, because they failed to evolve? The process of them becoming like this is... evolution!?"

You call this thing evolution! ! ?

"They are indeed evolving in a peculiar way, but someone has accelerated this process."

The angel answered truthfully and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Li Qi looked at Aina who was leading the way in front, pointed at her and asked the angel:

"Is she also evolving?"

"The degree is very small, but it is true."

The angel nodded slightly.

Evolution, green blood, survivors...

When the angel finished speaking, Li Qi began to think about the connection between them.

But before he could think clearly, Aina who was leading the way in front and Ronnie who was following her suddenly stopped moving forward.

Li Qi looked ahead and understood why they stopped.

The wide passage leading to the elevator was almost full of corpses of people who died tragically.

Most of them were monsters with black blood flowing, and a small number were normal-looking "humans", but judging from the blood flowing, they should be "normal people" like Aina.

Because their blood is green.

At the front of this passage full of corpses, a huge spider-like humanoid object was blocking the way.

It... or should I say her, the upper body is human, wearing a waiter-like outfit, with hands as sharp as blades, and the lower body is supported by six slender legs and a huge abdomen.

It is just like a huge humanoid spider.

But when she saw this huge spider, Aina's expression changed instantly.

Her pupils dilated, staring at the spider woman at the end of the passage in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice:

"Is it... Lucy... sister...?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman raised her head, and her scarlet eyes fell on the people in front of her.
