overnight evolution

She stood up from the bed and began to tell Mr. Housekeeper some dietary precautions.I leaned on the pillow and looked at the shy smiling housekeeper, and found that just as he himself said, bats are indeed a thin-skinned race.The blush was always lingering on his delicate face, which made the slender neck exposed at the neckline even whiter.Seeing that he lowered his head to drink tea silently at the end, he felt that this frail appearance was really deceptive. He was such a man who was easily shy, and it was my two legs that were broken in one shot.

Even looking back on it now, it still feels unbelievable.

The species evolution conditions in Atlantis are harsh, unlike the evolve-key that can evolve without limit as long as they are alive. After reaching the bottleneck, many species can only seek breakthroughs in power control and combat skills, so they generally There is a training ground in your own residence.And the fighting arena of this castle is set up on the east wing, facing the cliff, it is an open field surrounded by high walls, surrounded by a dozen heavy stone sculptures scattered around.

At first, seeing him smiling shyly and standing opposite him in a hand-made tuxedo, I felt that this handsome man might not even be able to block my punch.After the event, he stretched his muscles and bones, and reminded him before starting: "I have been taught by my grandfather since I was a child, and I usually fight with people a lot. You have to be careful later."

He nodded and made a gesture of please start, so I stopped talking nonsense, but I still deliberately reserved [-]% of my force when I shot.After the first punch passed, he turned slightly sideways and put his hands behind his back.After that, I quickly passed two moves, and I finally realized that I had met a master fighter. His smooth dodges did not have a single superfluous movement, and his straightforward counter moves directly targeted my weak points. The expression on his face was always extremely calm.When I realized this and started to attack with all my strength, he was still in an attitude of ease. He bent his mouth while flashing a roundabout kick from the side, and said softly: "The strength is good, but the speed is still a bit short."

Panting, I slowed down the rhythm of the attack, and muttered: "I'm just kidding..."

Before the car accident, I was already famous among the students for my strange strength. After coming to Atlantis, the strength I can use has increased several times. The last time I broke the armrest of Jess’s chair with.It's all like this, he just thinks it's good, after all, I have never been underestimated like this, and I was aroused in my heart, and I tried my best to force him to make a real move, "I said, don't just hide and don't fight back, come!"

As he said that he threw his fist towards his face, something hot exploded in his chest in an instant, and a low growl erupted from his throat.A huge heat flow rushed towards the limbs and bones in an instant, and one of them turned into a red phantom and shot out, knocking away the stone statue standing beside it.It was the first time I felt that my whole body was filled with great strength, so light that I was about to lift off the ground. I became extremely excited, and I didn't even have the time to think about what happened just now.

The blood hit the chest like waves hitting the reef, and the heart beat like a drum.

Swinging his right fist, seeing the bright red blood on his face, he became even more restless and said, "Come on, come on again!"

He tilted his head, showing a pensive face: "Huo——"

My mind was not clear enough, and all I could see was the flames of the red lotus. Seeing that he was standing there without moving, I curled my lips and kicked out. While leaping into the air, I raised my legs and slashed at his neck.The heat that seems to be burning is wrapped around the calf, and the sharp whistling caused by the friction with the air makes me squint my eyes, open my mouth and shout: "Take it seriously, I!"

He stood there without moving, until my attack was in front of him, and then slowly stretched out a finger, and after stretching, he pressed my right leg in the air at a speed too fast to see clearly, Can't go any further.Those eyes, which I thought were just for display, opened slowly, and a strange blue light overflowed from under the eyelashes, fixing me in midair.

When I was stared at by these eyes, I felt that even the boiling blood was frozen, and the rotten breath of death poured here from all directions.

The innocent and shy young man looked like another person when he opened his eyes, and the smile on his lips also faded from his shyness and became completely black.His fingers lightly brushed against my leg, and the sound of bones breaking inside could be clearly heard in the silent space.The strength in his chest shrank due to the attack of pain, the flames burning in his vision gradually faded and dissipated, and the rushing warmth in his limbs and bones also disappeared.

He chuckled, moved his finger, and let me fall from the air: "Even if the key standing at the top of the evolutionary chain is killed at this time, there is no way to resurrect it?"

I lay on the ground and curled up slightly, and my reason suddenly returned to my mind.The feeling of being threatened by death reappeared. I had it when I was kidnapped when I was a child, and I also had it when I was faced with a car that hit me straight. These are all bad memories.If he is strong enough, this kind of thing won't happen to him, as long as he evolves—out of all kinds of chaotic thoughts flashing through his mind, only this one has the clearest cognition.

I want to evolve... I curled up a little tighter, because I also want to control my own destiny.

In this case, just work harder to evolve, right?

His expression fluctuated, the blue light in his eyes first brightened and then dimmed.When the thin eyelids fell again, the boyish shyness returned to his face, and then quickly turned into panic.

So, these are all the memories I had before I lost consciousness.

"—that's pretty much it."

Jess' voice pulled me back from my contemplation, and by the way, rescued the cup that I accidentally made a crack in my hand.Before the black tea in it leaked out, I drank it quickly, and then put it back on the tea tray as if nothing happened.Ye pushed the dining car and left the bedroom. I watched Jess turn around from the spot with some unease, and smiled at me with an inexplicable meaning: "That's really good, cute."

"Um, can I ask what's nice?"

This is not pretending to be stupid, but I really don't know which aspect she is referring to.

She was wearing a black turtleneck sweater and leather pants today, without any makeup on her face, and her ponytail looked so beautiful that she had never seen before.When she stepped on the boots and walked over step by step, my heart beat so fast, I subconsciously held my breath waiting for her to speak.

Jess stopped half a meter away from the bed, stroked her cheeks and said with emotion: "It's really worthy of being a student who came out of Xiujiao, but he dared to challenge others so quickly, doesn't the little cutie know Is the butler who opened his eyes a scary guy?"

"...Now I know."

People cannot be judged by their appearance, and the sea cannot be measured, especially in Atlantis.

"Xiu is working hard, and he can't take care of family affairs for the time being. But I don't think he will want to hear the bad news that his student was accidentally killed by a loyal housekeeper when he comes back. So cutie wants to be a After the ghost, do you want to leisurely admire the sad face of the Chairman?"

"I didn't mean that..."

Then again, those two words don't exist in that person's dictionary, do they?

Jess happily admired my depressed face for a long time, and then said: "But I want to congratulate you, cute, although you have only made such a small progress from J to I, you still have to admit that you have made breakthroughs at the critical moment of life and death, which is amazing. "

Maybe because my teacher was not there, she also kindly played a cameo role to explain the connection between the test of life and death and evolution.I didn't know what a great thing I had done, because according to her, only those individuals who are about to end their lives but can't make a breakthrough will make such a choice.Like this behavior of seeking a breakthrough in a life-and-death duel, the chance is generally 55 to [-], and it is possible to get advanced, or it may die in the opponent's hands.

"Ye stayed by Xiu's side because he couldn't control his power well and hurt many of his fellow clansmen. He usually seals most of his power in his eyes." After speaking, he asked strangely, "Look, little cutie. He usually refuses to open his eyes, don't you think it's strange?"

... Strangeness is certain, but in Atlantis, everything can become extremely reasonable.

Because of this kind of thinking, I have always felt that the fact that I don't want to open my eyes is actually a racial characteristic of the butler.Bats, right? They're notoriously invisible.Looking at the graceful figure of the butler walking through the castle at night, I thought he was sending out ultrasonic waves to detect the way while walking, who knew——

"Looks like I'll read more books in the future." I looked up and said to her with a sigh, "Looking through something like "The Continental Chronicle" doesn't seem to be enough, I have to find a way to eat it in my stomach inside."

Jess was amused by the emotion in my voice, covered her red lips and let out a low laugh: "If one book is not enough for you, please tell me, and I will bring you a few more books when you come next time." She lowered her Then he clapped his hands lightly in front of his chest, and said, "Okay, then you shouldn't go to dangerous fighting places with Ye from now on, right?"

"No, I'm still going." Even though it sounded dangerous, I had absolutely no intention of stopping my combat training.

Jess frowned, folded her arms and stood by the bed and stared at me, admonishing: "Little cutie, if it's you, as long as you can survive, that's enough. Others don't care about the strength of the key. If you want to For things like guarding Atlantis, you can just leave it to the intelligent optical brain and super A-level guys, is it difficult for you to live a peaceful life?"

A peaceful life is simply my lifelong pursuit, but unfortunately I never had the chance to realize it.

"Well, my thoughts are not so lofty, such as defending the family and the country." Selfishness was inadvertently raised to such a great height. I said that the pressure was not ordinary, and I scratched my cheek to express my thoughts, "This No, school is about to start, I just want to work hard, so that I won’t be able to fight back if I’m bullied at school.”

As I spoke, I fell into memories unintentionally, and I felt uncomfortable just thinking about it, that kind of feeling.

I have learned a lot during this time, and I also know that if you want to feel comfortable here, it is not something that can be achieved with a great guardian.Although it is good to enjoy the shade under a big tree, there are still a lot of places in this world where the branches cannot reach. Living with an awkward identity, it is hard to guarantee that one day will catch up with being surrounded by people.If you can go one step further, you can delay a little more time before the savior arrives, and if you can't, you can go all out and die.

I rubbed my face and turned myself back from the memory, "You may think it's nothing, but what I plan to sacrifice my life for is nothing but dignity. Living without dignity is much more uncomfortable than dying with dignity, My teacher makes me see how realistic this world is every day, those guys who come to you in pursuit of evolution will not care about your life, and they will not ask you if you want to be raped before taking off your pants."

Being a key is a tragedy in itself, and I've seen it all through!
