Nonhuman Evolution Guide

For a moment, no one spoke in the circular principal's office, and silence filled the entire space. Even the dozing old principals in the wall portraits opened their eyes one by one, staring at Zhang Lin silently.

"Oh?" Dumbledore said a moment later, he put his long fingers together, and looked at Zhang Lin from above his glasses, "It's true, we've been invaded all the time—but I think, what you said That might not be what it said."

Zhang Lin glanced out of the window. Students playing Quidditch passed by in the distance. The setting sun filled the sky and covered the entire castle.

Dumbledore raised his wand suddenly.Zhang Lin looked at him without any movement, Mr. Principal smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I seem to have forgotten my tea." He waved his wand and summoned a tea set from the air.Zhang Lin stared at him and lit the teapot with his wand, which was filled with steaming hot tea immediately.

Zhang Lin stretched his fingers thoughtfully under the table.

"To be honest, Mr. Zhang," Dumbledore's wand arced gracefully in the air, and the saucer landed firmly in front of Zhang Lin. The old wizard looked at him with a smile from the rising steam, "I am very inclined to You're telling the truth, but I'm a little scared to keep listening. I have a request, please tell me in the simplest terms what's going to happen - I think at my age, it's hard to bear Shocking news."

Zhang Lin picked up the teacup and drank it down, then smacked his lips under Dumbledore's shocked gaze, and frowned, "I didn't feel anything."

"..." Dumbledore's tone was a little erratic, "Maybe I can change it..."

"I thought you were going to be more direct." Zhang Lin said regretfully.

"That's against the law," said Dumbledore cryptically.

Zhang Lin smiled hypocritically, "Yeah, that's right." It's a bit difficult to find a law that applies to him now, unless he plans to go to Star Trek to see it.

Dumbledore obviously thought of this too, so he changed the subject.His tone was serious and dignified, as if he was ready to accept everything, "Then, please tell me the truth, child."

Zhang Lin looked at him in surprise.

Dumbledore smiled, "I don't think you should have lived for more than 40 years."

"40 years..." Zhang Lin muttered and frowned, "Has it been that long?"

"Yes, everything is changing," said Dumbledore, "including the boy you knew."

Zhang Lin looked at Dumbledore, and the headmaster slightly raised the teacup to him, then brought it to his mouth, and took a sip.There was another moment of stagnation in the air, but this time it was Zhang Lin's unilateral action.After a few minutes, he shrugged and sank back in his chair.

"You know everything... Well, I should have thought of it a long time ago." Zhang Lin smiled with a half-smile, "I have met a lot of smart people recently, but you are the most powerful one-to be honest, if I know someone Some people say that magic is science, and they might sneer at it for a week before they take it seriously."

Dumbledore shook his head, "No... that's because they haven't lived so long to understand that it's not surprising that there are so many incomprehensible things in this world."

"Then, why?" Zhang Lin said softly, "You know how bad that boy is, a born bad embryo, evil to the bone - but you still didn't move a finger of him."

Dumbledore shook his head again, with a sad expression, "He was a child... At that time."

After a while, Zhang Lin shrugged, "Well, that's none of my business."

"I know you don't like that kid, he wants to frame you." Dumbledore's blue eyes stared at Zhang Lin from behind the glasses, "But you really shouldn't stay there any longer, it's dangerous, you are very important to the Forbidden Forest , or the Forbidden Forest to you. I don't know you well, and I have to be cautious."

Zhang Lin was silent for a moment before asking, "Isn't it because of the robot?"

"She didn't lie, but she didn't look like she knew all the facts, but she didn't know it." Dumbledore said, "If you follow her description, you don't have to be so cautious at all, you can leave, like A speck of dust is buried in the sand, and no one can find you. And she looks very urgent, as if she has lost her judgment, as if something is pushing her." Dumbledore narrated slowly, looking at Zhang Lin eyes, "as if something forced her to do it."

Zhang Lin nodded, and then said: "The three laws of robots, she must protect humans."

Dumbledore smiled, "Yes, I read the Muggle books afterwards to understand this. But there are no robots as realistic as hers in the world today. You come from..." The old wizard paused, slowly "Is that your world?"

Zhang Lin listened to Dumbledore's question and thought about the answer.his world?He doesn't even know which world he belongs to.

"You should have come to us earlier," the old wizard looked at him kindly, "I think you must have had a difficult journey."

Zhang Lin subconsciously shook his head.Dumbledore looked at him in surprise, Zhang Lin thought for a while before saying, "No, maybe I should, maybe you can give me some help at that time, but I prefer the current development." Zhang Lin looked at Dumbledore "I like to know the facts, and now I can even come here and tell you all the facts," Lido said.

"Then, we're back to the point." Mr. Principal smiled slyly, "All ears."

Zhang Lin tilted his head, stared at the table and thought slowly, "You already know that I come from another world." Dumbledore nodded, and Zhang Lin continued, "There is a saying that goes like this, Whenever you make a choice, there will be a parallel universe. In another universe, you made the opposite choice. Actually what I want to say is similar to this, there are countless parallel universes that exist for us In the space of , some of them have moved to another branch from a long time ago, they are completely different from you, but if you go back to the infinite time, you may have existed in the same world."

Dumbledore listened quietly, Zhang Lin looked at him, "And some other people—or another higher species, they created us, they observed us, and they even made a list for it, It records every world they think is worth invading—yes, they created us to use us as their breeding grounds. The better the world develops, the more they like it, the sooner they will come and take it over."

Looking at Dumbledore's expression, Zhang Lin knew that he didn't need to say any more.

"You mean, our world is in that list." Dumbledore hit the topic without hesitation.

"Every world that I can reach has a logo set by them. They use this to identify you, and it is also easier to visit your world through this." Zhang Lin said, "And I, I am what they are interested in. As a little experiment at the time, they let me have both their and human characteristics, and gave me a special little ability-the ability to compete with them. Because unfortunately, I just happen to miss the fact that I used to be a Those years of pure human beings. Of course, I got some help, the process is quite complicated and of little value, and I suggest you not pay attention to this story for the time being."

Dumbledore, as he said, took a while to digest the shocking things.He didn't respond to Zhang Lin for a while, and the latter wasn't in a hurry—at least not for a few minutes.

Mr. Principal subconsciously took off his glasses and wiped them with his robe.Many people have this habitual action, and it is also a way to relieve stress.When Dumbledore put his glasses back on, he was able to look at Zhang Lin calmly.

"I know," Zhang Lin said, "suddenly discovering that I have a creator—to be honest, it's not easy to accept."

Dumbledore shook his head, "It's much easier to accept than what I read from Muggle students' textbooks—humans evolved from monkeys."

Zhang Lin couldn't help laughing.

The old wizard looked at him gently but solemnly, "As for the matter of preparing for battle - I really want to say that I have a lot of experience, but I can't lie. In fact, I'm pretty good at dealing with a bad boy who took a detour - —Of course not particularly good at it—but dealing with higher species from another world," he shrugged, "I'd rather listen to your advice."

Zhang Lin frowned slowly, his eyes fell on the eggs he was holding.

Dumbledore's eyes moved accordingly, and he obviously noticed that Zhang Lin had been very nervous about the eggs, even at the most critical moment, he did not relax his vigilance against it.

"I remember you said that you have a little ability to compete with that species." Dumbledore said to Zhang Lin.

"I can't believe it, I actually said it." Zhang Lin shrugged, "I should tell you directly that it can compete with them - as for what is my relationship with it, oh, don't look at me so seriously, I don’t want to answer that question anyway.”

The old wizard blinked slyly, "It seems to be a very difficult thing to mention—it's as embarrassing as if you laid this bug egg."

Zhang Lin: "..."

So, intelligent people are a species that people love to hate.Sometimes you have to need them, and sometimes you just want to kill them all.

Zhang Lin raised his eyebrows, "To be honest, it's the key to saving the world." He saw the old wizard staring at the egg thoughtfully, so he continued, "Obviously, it's an egg. It hatches a creature that needs a parasite, preferably strong and smart—like a giant with your IQ—and then it spawns millions of soldiers." Zhang Lin looked at Dumbledore, "Soldiers are always the key to war."

Dumbledore frowned, thought for a long time but did not respond to Zhang Lin.That's a bit odd, because it's not something difficult to understand.

"Is there anything wrong with what I said?" Zhang Lin asked.

"Yes." Dumbledore replied simply and simply, "This kind of creature itself needs to be parasitic to survive, so what it produces—eggs or larvae, don't they need to do this?"

Zhang Lin: "..."

Seeing Zhang Lin's expression, Dumbledore frowned even tighter, "I will definitely not agree to do this."

Zhang Lin sighed, "This is another question—but well, I have to say, since you brought it up, we can solve this problem earlier." He leaned lazily on the back of his chair, Dumbledore smiled slightly, "I have a world, if I have the chance, I don't mind you going to take a look - that world is terrible, but fortunately, it is full of some kind of parasitic, but it will not make people feel guilty. —I can't call them creatures, in a word, something."

"To another world?" Dumbledore looked at Zhang Lin and took a breath, his blue eyes seemed to be blurred by the lens covering them.
