mother of all races

Xavier suddenly grabbed Lin Xi, and stepped on the wall with great ease. His fingertips, which looked like ordinary humans, were easily inserted into the wall of the rest space like a knife piercing butter.

Relying on the powerful ability hidden under the human body, Xavier hung Lin Xi lightly on the ceiling of the lounge——

In the next second, the metal door of the lounge slammed down.

Lin Xi pressed tightly against Xavier's chest, staring down at herself.

He paused for a few seconds, then said "thank you" softly.

Lin Xi's thanks were unprecedentedly sincere.

Because the moment the door fell, the white nematodes that had gathered outside the door for so long poured into the resting space from the narrow doorway like an out-of-control flood.

Most of them still maintain the seemingly ordinary shape of nematodes, but some of them have mimicked other species—for example, those worms with human faces—in addition to worms, mixed with half-worms There are some other creatures among the cyborg mechanical warriors and nematodes. Some look like a combination of praying mantises and spiders, and some look more like leeches. These unlucky ones probably lived in the Some of the aborigines inside the cracks of the Providence have been directly devoured and transformed by these white nematodes.

Whether it is those nematodes or those mimic creatures, they are still as chaotic, greedy, and fanatical as when they first saw them.

If Xavier hadn't brought Lin Xi up to the ceiling in time, Lin Xi would probably have to stand in the wet and sticky sea of ​​insects now.

That was a real nightmare.

And now, those "nightmares" are constantly surging under Lin Xi.

Some white nematodes straightened their bodies as much as possible, stuck their heads out of the wet and smelly mucus like a garden eel, straightened their bodies, and tried hard to reach Lin Xi on the ceiling.

Lin Xi subconsciously hid in Xavier's arms.

"Shall we leave here first?"

Sensing Lin Xi's disgust, Xavier immediately began to look around, planning to find a more convenient angle to escape from the resting space.

But soon it heard Lin Xi's voice of refusal.

"No... wait..."

Lin Xi opened her eyes wide and looked at the nematodes.

"I want to take another look."

He said.

Thinking that these things are the culprits of polluting Noah, Lin Xi is more eager than before to understand this weird and twisted creature.

Even he didn't realize it, subconsciously, he was looking for a way to save Noah.

Xavier somewhat resisted Lin Xi's decision, but it still obediently obeyed Lin Xi's orders.

It hugged Lin Xi tightly, and slowly crawled towards the center of the room—the rest space was spherical, and in the center of the room, the ceiling was the farthest from the ground.

As if aware of Lin Xi's departure, the bodies of the nematodes began to entangle each other, and then...the entanglement formed a brand new assembly.

Even though Lin Xi is no longer human, seeing the scene in front of him still makes his hair stand on end.

In a few seconds, those white nematodes have gathered into a white spire as tall as a person, and this "tower" is still growing at a speed visible to the naked eye...

"Go away—"

Xavier let out a thin, sharp expulsion sound.

But these extremely simple nematodes, so simple that they only had instincts, became more active than before after hearing Xavier's voice.

They began to straighten their bodies as much as possible, trying to get close to Lin Xi, until a scarlet light passed over the white nematodes——

The collection of nematodes just fell apart.

That scarlet light is Noah.

What happened next made Lin Xi's eyes widen in shock.

Noah, who looked so weak, helpless, and pitiful in front of Xavier, showed a completely different face when facing the white nematode...

It was ferocity and brutality that only top predators can have.

Noah opened his slime-like body directly, and then pounced on those white nematodes, and then it would use its soft flesh and blood to tightly wrap the wriggling and entangled nematodes in its body.

Through the translucent skin, Lin Xi could even see the process of the white nematodes being dissolved by the digestive juice secreted from under Noah's skin.

"Wow, it's disgusting..."

Just when Lin Xi was stunned and at a loss in the face of such a scene, he clearly heard Xavier let out a somewhat artificial exclamation in his ear.

"This guy even eats bugs."

Facing Lin Xi's gaze, Xavier said in a very delicate tone.

"...it's pretty good at these things."

Lin Xi responded slowly after a while.

He observed the entanglement and mutual devouring of Noah and those white nematodes.

Noah didn't have to worry about the parasitism and mimicry of these white nematodes.Because it doesn't have a body that can be used for parasitism at all, and there is no normal form that can be used for mimicry.

This may be because Noah himself has the same characteristics as these nematodes.

It is a natural weapon against these nematodes.

Through continuous devouring, Noah, who had become extremely weak due to Xavier's attack not long ago, quickly recovered.All the white nematodes that were swallowed and digested were regarded as nutrients by it...

Those white nematodes are helping Noah become another powerful and chaotic creature...

However, the more Lin Xi looked at it, the paler his face became.

He turned his head suddenly and looked at the electronic screen in the rest space.

The bottom of the electronic screen was already dirty with white nematode mucus, but the synthetic woman in red on the screen still had a mechanical smile, quietly watching everything that happened in the rest space.

Lin Xi stared at the woman's face, vaguely feeling that she saw Scripps hiding in the darkness.

"Did you already know..."

Lin Xi asked suddenly.

That's why Scripps urged Lin Xi to give birth to Noah so anxiously.

The excessive kindness shown by the former captain at that moment is so disobedient when I think about it now.

Facing Lin Xi's questioning, the woman didn't respond at all, and the original warm and high-end resting space didn't change in any way.

Scripps ignored Lin Xi, who might have dropped the line.

But even so, Lin Xi already vaguely had an answer in his heart.

These white nematodes came from the eggs that Scripps hadn't raised, probably because of this, the former mother of alien species had already predicted the characteristics of nematodes and Noah.

However, from beginning to end, he never reminded Lin Xi.

He just urged Lin Xi to give birth to Noah, and then... used Noah as a weapon against these nematodes.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi felt as if his blood was about to burn.

He even had a tendency to go berserk from extreme rage.

Violence and bloodlust ran rampant in his soul like an uncontrolled beast, leaving his mind blank.

Lin Xi stared at the bugs below him that were devouring and transforming each other, and his deep disgust and resentment finally tore apart his only rationality.

These defiled descendants.

These distorted group members.

These failures... At that moment, Lin Xi wished that all the ghosts he saw before his eyes would disappear.

"Lin Xi?"

Lin Xi's emotions undoubtedly affected Xavier.

After finally possessing a human body, the king worm changed its human form.

The once handsome face gradually transformed into a half-insect, half-human appearance.

Seeing the light metallic chitin emerging from his bare arms, Xavier couldn't help but ask.

At the same moment, from the far corner of the room, a slender, centipede-like thing was sneaking towards Lin Xi.This is also one of the nematode's trophies - a parasitized alien monster.

And what it is best at is quietly approaching its prey, just like it is now.Its color is pure white, which is completely consistent with the environment of the lounge.

Three meters...two meters...one...

Seeing that this monster with the length of a forearm was about to approach Lin Xi, it slowly opened its mouth. The tube tongue originally used to lick small insects was filled with a large number of curly white nematode larvae.

In the next second, the larvae of these white nematodes will fall on Lin Xi's body through its spray.

Its actions were so stealthy that even Noah and Xavier hadn't noticed his arrival.

But at the last moment, Lin Xi suddenly turned his head, his cold and scarlet gaze was aimed at the monster accurately...

Lin Xi's eyes turned completely red.

No sound, no movement, just staring.

This white monster, which was quite successful in terms of action, froze for a moment, then fell silently from the wall and fell into the battlefield below.

The mimic body turned into debris in an instant, and the underdeveloped larvae under its body became Noah's food in a short instant.

Noah has swollen many times than before. It was very full during this battle and became very strong.

Seeing that the white nematodes in the room had been devoured to only a small part, Noah raised his head slowly on the ground.

Indistinct flesh and blood gathered together, barely forming a humanoid image.

Then it grinned at Lin Xi flatteringly.Of course, the premise is that if you really think it's the mouth...

"Hiss...Noah...hiss..."

That weird and evil cry made Lin Xi tremble.

He just woke up from the previous state of rage.

But in the next second, he was slightly taken aback by what he saw.

Looking at Noah's current appearance, Lin Xi is really not sure whether this guy still maintains his basic sanity...

That kind of overzealous nostalgia and admiration without a trace of distraction is so similar to those white nematodes.

And Noah's originally exceptionally clear emotions have become chaotic at this moment-obviously, while devouring those white nematodes greedily, those white nematodes are also changing Noah's body.

From the perspective of biological weapons, these white nematodes are probably the most powerful and troublesome biological weapons researched by human beings. They are not strong, but they are indeed very troublesome.

Any creature that devours them, destroys them, and in the end... may be transformed into the nematode itself.

Lin Xi looked over the ugly Noah and looked outside the resting space.The outside is empty, and it seems that all the nematodes have gathered in the lounge.

However, relying on the extraordinary perception ability of the mother of different species, Lin Xi was sure that in the various spaces on this floor, the white nematodes that were constantly hatching were rushing towards this direction at a fast speed.

And Noah...

Lin Xi lowered her head, and once again looked at her child who had no basic shape.

It is still a hard battle waiting for Noah.

Lin Xi is well aware of this.It's just... What makes him unsure is, after swallowing more white nematodes, is Noah really still Noah?
