mother of all races

something is moving...

Under Lin Xi's gaze, the corpses in the frozen water tank that seemed to have died a long time ago began to shake slightly.

Lin Xi saw a pair of eyes, a pair of blood-red, irrational eyes, staring at him greedily between the corpses.

That thing had sneaked into the refrigerated tank long before Lin Xi entered the refrigerated warehouse.

It has been watching Lin Xi...waiting for Lin Xi.

"Damn..."

Lin Xi let out a curse.

The moment he saw the monster, he jumped up without hesitation and started running towards the entrance.

And behind him, a huge and deformed red-eyed monster wriggled its huge body and quickly crawled out from the edge of the frozen water tank with the sound of ticking.

Just like those of its own kind that are dead (or just dormant), apart from its deformed appearance, the most notable feature of this monster is the various "bumps" all over its body surface.

These "bumps" all have rather suspicious shapes.

Even when the monster was moving, these protrusions all over the surface of the body were constantly spraying out viscous liquid.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Lin Xi would never have believed that there is such an evil creature. What's even more unbelievable is that it can move freely in the cryogenic liquid.

This is enough to prove how difficult this king worm clone is to deal with.

Not to mention, the clone king worm hovering behind Lin Xi had an absolutely evil aura.

It hardly looked like a product of the real world, in fact, it looked like the craziest thing you could dream of in a nymphomaniac.

It's just that, in the dreams of some special people, such a monster may make them feel happy, but in reality, Lin Xi, who is fighting against each other, will only feel that he has fallen into a complete nightmare.

Obviously after transforming into a different species, Lin Xi's movements were far more dexterous and fast than human imagination, but against that monster, Lin Xi's movements were as slow as a tortoise.

But after a few steps, Lin Xi could already clearly smell the smell emanating from the monster. It wasn't a foul smell, nor was it a bloody smell, but a worse smell...

Lin Xi was still running away, but the moment he smelled the smell, he felt his joints go limp and his mind instantly went blank.

He fell to the ground just like that.

"Zi-"

The clone let out an exceptionally excited cry, and it swooped towards Lin Xi.

Probably because the extreme fear can make people calm down... Lin Xi followed the posture of falling, turned around suddenly, and aimed the old-fashioned current pulse gun tightly held in his arms at the man behind him. monster, and squeezed the trigger hard.

The blue electric current shot out directly from the muzzle of the gun.

The monster trembled violently, and all the bumps on its body trembled.

Lin Xi clenched his teeth and turned on the pulse gun to the maximum. Under the action of those currents, the clone's movements suddenly stopped.But that's all - as if in the next second, the monster resumed its movements as if nothing had happened.

Lin Xi's heart was cold.

But he still gritted his teeth, and taking advantage of the opportunity that the clone hadn't fully recovered, he stabbed the handle of the electron pulse gun into the monster's eyes——

The monster let out a low cry immediately, and it raised its forelegs a little slowly, covering its eyes that were bubbling with mucus.

The moment the sight of the monster was blocked while supporting the monster, Lin Xi kicked hard on the ground, his body lightly turned in one direction, and then he turned around, directly passed the clone, and quickly moved towards another direction to run.

He had a strong premonition that once he was caught by this monster, what awaited him would be a nightmare.

Lin Xi moved quickly in the warehouse with countless frozen petri dishes, using those cylindrical frozen petri dishes as obstacles to block the monster's sight.

With a wrong body, Lin Xi got into the blind spot of the monster's sight, and he prostrated himself on the ground, his body curled up tightly.In this case, the electronic detection parts located at the bottom of the frozen petri dish can more or less cover his figure.

That monster's IQ is not very high... If he is lucky, he may be able to temporarily escape the pursuit of that monster.

Just as Lin Xi thought, the monster did lose track of Lin Xi.

"boom--"

The gun body of the electronic pulse gun squeezed out from the clone body, and the monster lightly rubbed the worm-like forelimbs, and the gun body made of high-strength materials was easily broken into countless pieces.

After realizing that Lin Xi was missing, the clone of the king worm raised its neck and let out a wild howl.

Immediately afterwards, the monster began to move its body slowly. It lowered its head and made an obvious sniffing sound... It just searched along the place Lin Xi had passed by.

This guy with evil parts all over his body can still smell——

Lin Xi let out a curse in his heart.

He covered his mouth, carefully placed his face on the edge of the frozen petri dish, and observed the approaching monster.And the more he observed, the more he felt something was wrong.

His heart sank little by little.

The monster does have a relatively low intelligence, but, as if to make up for it, its instincts have grown immensely powerful.

If the stalemate continues like this, it will be a matter of time before Lin Xi is caught by that damned clone.

Lin Xi knew that she should think of ways to get out of this dangerous situation, but...

Oh my god, his mind is blank right now.

Lin Xi could feel that she was in a state of helplessness, all reason and thinking seemed to be evaporated, leaving only strong fear and uncontrollable disgust.

This kind of disgust has even gone beyond common sense, and Lin Xi can even feel the "He" in the depths of her soul is constantly clamoring and commotion.

This creature with strange organs all over its body is the "clone" mentioned in the previous reports.

Is this the so-called "exhibiting a special tendency to give birth"? ?

Lin Xi almost wanted to insult the researcher who lightly wrote this description in the experiment report 300 years ago.

That "thing" that is constantly wandering and wriggling in the frozen warehouse should be completely wiped out from the moment it was born in this universe.

While cursing the researcher back then, Lin Xi also regretted that he hadn't read the report more carefully.

If he had been more careful...would he have known where the weakness of this thing was?You know, this guy can even move freely in the cryogenic liquid, and the damage done to it by the electronic pulse gun is similar to tickling.

What on earth did the people on the Providence 300 years ago create such disgusting and terrifying creatures?

While Lin Xi was thinking crazily, the monster gradually turned its "face" in Lin Xi's direction.

Lin Xi's eyes widened suddenly.He was shocked to see that some kind of eye-stalk had grown on the part of the clone that used to be the eye. You know, just a few minutes ago, Lin Xi had personally inserted the handle of the electronic pulse gun into the monster. eye sockets.

After such a short moment, the original wound healed?

I don't know if it's because of the shortness of breath, but Lin Xi suddenly felt that the monster turned its head in his direction. Of course, the premise is... the organ that Lin Xi thought was the head could really be counted as is its head.

Lin Xi clenched his teeth, holding his breath and retracting his body.

His heart was beating so hard that he began to worry that the monster would hear his heartbeat.

After a while, the wet and sticky sound of the monster's movement sounded again.

It didn't seem to notice Lin Xi's existence.

But then, it let out a scream full of anger and hunger, it was going crazy...

Just hearing the cry of that thing, Lin Xi's body was covered with goose bumps.

He closed his eyes subconsciously, just wanting to stay here like an ostrich regardless, not to look at that thing any more.

But Lin Xi knew that it was impossible. Only by monitoring what the monster was doing in real time could he seize the opportunity to escape.

Lin Xi kept building his mind in his heart, he took a deep breath, and then he mustered up the courage to turn around slowly.

However, the moment Lin Xi did this, he suddenly felt that something seemed to move in the corner of his eyes.

Lin Xi's movements froze, and he slowly...turned his head.Then he met a handsome but expressionless face.

The clone of Captain Scripps, or to call him by another name, the special experimental subject S...

This creature was supposed to be in a completely frozen state, but at this moment, it unexpectedly slowly opened its eyes in the freezing liquid.

It woke up.

The eyes of the special test subject S are a strange, deadly off-white color, and the pupils are severely dilated, leaving only a thin circle around the iris.As long as anyone can see, this thing has no sense at all... There is only a void in its eyes.

At least, Lin Xi couldn't see any human emotions or rationality from him.

however……

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Under Lin Xi's panic-stricken gaze, the clone of Scripps slowly opened her mouth, and she let out a low whimper...

The whimper was like a switch, and about a third of the clones slowly woke up from this whimper - most of them looked like a rotting, growing tumor-like mass of flesh. .Even the best individuals look like deformed children suffering from serious genetic diseases, while some others don't even have a complete human face, only sporadic eyeballs and teeth embedded in purple-red flesh full of blood vessels. block surface.

Lin Xi didn't know what activated them... Anyway, they did wake up.

While waking up, they unanimously let out that painless scream that had no meaning.

Painful low cries kept echoing in the empty space of the frozen warehouse, and their cries almost inevitably exposed Lin Xi's hiding place immediately.

The deformed clone that made Lin Xi feel extremely disgusted and frightened turned around with an agility that was completely out of proportion to its size, and its scarlet one-eyed stared straight at Lin Xi's direction.

Everything sucks.

And Lin Xi's current situation is extremely dangerous.

Lin Xi knew this better than anyone else, but at this moment Lin Xi couldn't even move his fingers.

His body froze completely, because the moment those special experimental subjects woke up, intense pain and despair flooded all of Lin Xi's mind like a tsunami.

It was a pain without any reason at all...

A chaotic, ignorant...pain that seems to come from the most primordial core of the universe.

At that moment, Lin Xi even felt that he had been completely melted by this strong emotion—from body to soul—he seemed to be assimilated by those things, and the pain fused him with those special experimental subjects.

In a trance, Lin Xi had turned into the experimental subjects who were imprisoned in the frozen petri dish.

He couldn't comprehend everything around him, couldn't comprehend what was going on.

The only thing he can feel is the dark and raging despair...

That emotional connection is so inviolable, so powerful.

The intense pain even directly affected Lin Xi's body. Under Lin Xi's stiff gaze, he saw with his own eyes some fine red bleeding spots slowly appearing on the part of his human body.

tick tock...tick tock...

Immediately afterwards, there was blood falling on the ground.

A streak of black and red blood slowly oozes from his nose.

At the moment when Lin Xi felt that she was about to be submerged——

"Crack-"

In the distance, he heard a crisp cracking sound, which was the sound of the frozen petri dish being directly smashed by the king worm clone.

A large amount of freezing liquid leaked directly from the damaged petri dish, and the temperature in the freezing warehouse plummeted instantly

The low temperature, followed by a more painful low cry, made Lin Xi suddenly tremble, and pulled out of that extremely painful emotion.

He should have run away immediately, but at this moment...he couldn't help but freeze in place because of what he saw.

He could hardly think.

"Do not……"

He could hear himself utter a particularly slurred, weak whisper.

God, what did he see...

That deformed clone smashed a frozen petri dish, and when the freezing liquid leaked, the experimental body contained in it flowed out and fell to the ground.

That was obviously a very failed special experimental body, even its outline was blurred.If it weren't for the distorted, squeezed human face inlaid on the surface of its body, Lin Xi could hardly tell whether it had really awakened.

Oh yes, it's a member of Awakening.

Lin Xi watched helplessly as those sad eyes blinked rapidly on the hideous and terrifying body, and sticky red tears of blood flowed down the corners of its eyes...

The clone of the king worm grabbed it just like that, and the angry and tyrannical roar turned into extreme excitement and joy.

Under the control of the monster, the only thing the clone of Captain Scripps could make was a few feeble whimpers.

The voice sounded more like some kind of extremely fragile little animal.

Lin Xi looked at the scene in front of him in shock.

In the next second, he spit it out directly.

In the short moment when his body became stiff due to shock, the special experimental subject that was unfortunately caught by the clone of the king worm had quietly turned into several fragments.Deformed internal organs mixed with bright red blood were scattered all over the ground, but its flesh did not satisfy the king worm clone. On the contrary, this pathetic creature seemed to make the terrifying monster even more excited.

Lin Xi watched helplessly as the monster raised its forelimbs, easily smashed another frozen petri dish, and then grabbed the special experimental subject out of it.

what happened next...

Lin Xi couldn't bear to see it.

He just crawled up like that, his knees became weak one after another, and beside him, all the experimental subjects who could wake up opened their vocal organs at the same time, letting out that long and painful cry humming.

A few more crisp sounds of glass came from behind Lin Xi...

Lin Xi didn't even dare to look back.

He knew that the existence of those special experimental subjects helped him escape invisibly.

The clone of the king worm wanted to catch Lin Xi, but whenever it passed by those screaming experimental subjects, it always stopped uncontrollably, and then it would break the petri dish, grab those or form them Or a shapeless piece of soft meat to satisfy your physical desires.

Lin Xi took this opportunity and staggered out of the freezer.

The clone was immediately aware of its escape.

It let out a roar, and rushed towards Lin Xi's direction quickly, but before that, Lin Xi had turned around abruptly and closed the door of the frozen warehouse forcefully.

"boom--"

The metal door shook violently from the impact.

But Lin Xi couldn't muster any energy to do anything about that door.

He fled from the side of the door in a panic.

He felt weak, cold and hopeless... He had never experienced such strong negative emotions.

Lin Xi knew very well that the deformed bodies of Captain Scripps' replicas might not even have brains for thinking. They were just a mass of rotten meat that was randomly created.

But who can explain the current situation?It is such a mass of rotten meat that has such distinct emotions and perception abilities, and this perception ability is more powerfully connected to Lin Xi's body than any other creature...

For example, right now, Lin Ximing is trying to escape, but at the same moment, a part of his body is clearly experiencing what the monster is doing to the experimental subjects in the frozen warehouse—that is without any The evil that words can describe.

When Lin Xi didn't even realize it, he couldn't help crying.

That voice sounded... almost exactly the same as those of the experimental subjects.

However, whenever Lin Xi felt that he was about to be overwhelmed by negative emotions, he would draw a long bloodstain on his arm with his nails without hesitation.

Thanks to the pain and blood, he could barely separate his spirit from those of the experimental subjects in the freezer.

Just like that, panting, Lin Xi walked through the messy biological laboratory, and then went straight to the outside corridor.

He let out a desperate gasp when he saw the two partitioned metal doors that closed off the hallway.

"Go fuck-"

Lin Xi rushed to one of the metal doors, and he tried his best to break through the metal door.

However, his current state is so bad that he can't even leave scratches on the surface of the metal door.And it didn't take long at all, something that made him feel extremely frightened had happened.

Just as Lin Xi was still confronting the metal door, there was a dull knocking sound behind him.

That terrifying aura that Lin Xi would never forget came out just like that.

It's the monster...

Everything happened so fast, it was like a nightmare.

Lin Xi turned around suddenly, and watched in horror as the huge, evil figure appeared in front of him.

Its movements seem to be quite sluggish, but in reality they are exceptionally fast.

On the deformed and distorted body, there are countless horrific protrusions wriggling... Some of the parts even have the remains of the experimental body.

The clone's eyes are also red, but there is nothing associated with positive emotions in the scarlet one eye.

That is a mass of pure, evil desires fused into flesh.

Lin Xi's heart was beating so fast that it was about to come out of his throat, and his back was covered with cold sweat. Almost instinctively, he began to neigh at the monster with a strong sense of expulsion.

But the monster didn't respond.

It seems that it can only radiate evil emotions outward, but has no way to receive any information from the outside world.

Just like what Lin Xi said in the reports he saw before, it only has the desire to reproduce in its mind.

The deformity and weirdness of this thing made Lin Xi almost unbearable.

Lin Xi stepped back step by step until he reached the cold isolation door.

He has nowhere to go.

But in his horrified sight, there were some slender tentacles protruding from the monster who was still a few meters away. They were so moist and soft, exuding a strong and nauseating breath.

Lin Xi's face was pale, and he stared straight at the monster's red eyes, feeling like he was going crazy.At such a close distance, the monster's body could only be said to be vague, and the unique aura belonging to the king worm became a little stronger.However, it was this kind of breath that made Lin Xi feel unbearable.

It was as if his soul and body were screaming at him that the thing in front of him should not exist in this world.

This is a strong blasphemy and defilement.

At a moment before Lin Xi himself could react, he had already jumped up, and he could feel something popping out from under his nails.

Then he jumped up hard, and he gave the monster a hard paw.

Like a hot dagger piercing through butter, Lin Xi easily left deep wounds on the surface of the monster's body.However, before Lin Xi even had time to breathe a sigh of relief, she watched helplessly that the wound she had just cut a few seconds ago began to scab, and a thin translucent film covered the surface of the wound where deep bone was visible. .

What Lin Xi couldn't accept was that he saw some new "bulges" slowly emerging from the monster's wound.

"Hiss..."

The monster let out a vague cry, and there was still no other emotion in it, only the desire that made Lin Xi feel sick.

Lin Xi's attack on it before didn't even seem to make it feel the slightest pain, on the contrary, the monster became more active and excited than before.

Lin Xi exposed his mouthparts towards the monster. Instead of continuing to entangle with the other party, he stepped on the monster's shoulder and quickly jumped onto the wall.

No matter what will happen later, but at this moment the only thought in Lin Xi's mind is to stay away from this monster.

He couldn't stand any contact with the monster—

But in the next second, Lin Xi felt a pain in his ankle: he was firmly bound by the monster's tongue.

Lin Xi let out a low cry, and then found himself lightened.

The monster's tongue was like a rope, pulling Lin Xi towards him.

Lin Xi's hand pierced deeply into the metal wall, trying to stabilize her body, but all these efforts were in vain.

The monster's saliva was abnormal, and Lin Xi realized it immediately.After touching Lin Xi, Lin Xi's body quickly lost strength.

His body is constantly getting weaker and softer...

Even his sanity became incomparably blurred...

Everything happened in such a quick instant. Sensing one side of her body, the only thought in Lin Xi's fuzzy brain was...

He's screwed.

This mutated king worm clone is so strong that it is illogical, maybe he should kill himself directly while he still has the ability to think.

"Do not……"

Lin Xi let out a moan of despair.

And at the moment when Lin Xi lost all hope, he suddenly heard a violent roar——

Something was hitting the metal isolation door on the side of the passage.

"Lin Xi..."

Immediately next to Lin Xi's ear was Xavier's growl that became extremely hoarse because of panic.

"Lin Xi...it's me...I'm here!"

exclaimed Xavier.

While it was shouting, it kept banging on the metal isolation door.

The isolation door that made Lin Xi feel extremely desperate before began to gradually deform at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The king worm clone that had trapped Lin Xi reacted even more violently.

Its body tensed suddenly, and then slowly turned its hateful head.

And then it just stared straight at the metal door

At this moment, the clones of the king worm unexpectedly showed their emotions beyond sexual desire-exclusivity and exclusiveness.

The monster even temporarily gave up on Lin Xi, and it focused all its attention on the deformed metal door.

It smelled Xavier's breath.

That is the real, normal aura possessed by the king worm.
