wake of the wild

Words are sharper than swords.

In terms of stimulating people, the sika deer's professionalism is comparable to that of a little fox.

Xie Simang's last rationality collapsed, his dorsal fin swung violently in the air, and he let out a deafening growl, completely ignoring whether it would spread outside the medical building.

What Lu Qi was waiting for was this moment, and he jumped forward unexpectedly.

No longer passive defense, but active attack.

The emotionally out-of-control whale shark really slowed down his reaction speed. When he realized something was wrong and raised his head, the sika deer had already vacated directly above him, and kicked him mercilessly in the eyes.

Think this will do?

Xie Simang opened the huge mouth of the whale shark, almost turning his entire face into a bottomless shark's mouth. In the cold light of his fangs, his growl turned into a mocking laugh. bite off.

The sika deer is about to taste the taste of losing their legs.

However, contrary to Xie Simang's expectations, Lu Qi's attacking foot kicked on the upper edge of his shark's mouth, and it was far less powerful than he imagined, and he only used this place as a point of leverage. As a result, he completed an incredible twist in the air and landed on his back.

"You got Fooled."

Lu Qi leaned close to the back of the whale shark's head, his voice was as soft as a whisper, but his hands followed the cracked gills on both sides of the whale shark's neck, and ruthlessly penetrated into it!

Xie Simang's muscular body froze, and finally realized that the attack just now was just a cover-up. Lu Qi's original goal was not the eyes, but his gills.

But it's too late.

As soon as Lu Qi put his hands in, he touched the cheeks. He hooked the cheekbow and pulled the cheeks out without hesitation, even though the sharp rakers all over the gillbow cut his palms to blood.

The whale shark let out a terrifying roar, and shook its body violently, like a mad cow.

Lu Qi was thrown to the ground, and the two torn bloody cheeks fell from his hands and fell aside, they were already useless dead flesh.

The roar ended, and the whale shark stared fiercely at Lu Qi, panting heavily: "Do you think you have finally found my weakness? Huh?"

Lu prayed for the bloody gills on both sides of the whale shark's neck, and said coldly: "I know you have more than one pair of gills, and I also know that you have the ability to heal yourself, but believe it or not, I can get your gills out before then. Are the gills destroyed?"

The whale shark laughed back angrily: "Then believe it or not, I don't need gills to breathe at all now, even if you pick off all my gills, it's useless."

Lu Qi was stunned, with no expression on his face, but the determination in his eyes was shaking a little bit.

The whale shark laughed even louder: "Gills are only useful in water, and now I am breathing air!"

Lu Qi didn't want to believe it, but only now did he realize that the pair of gills of the whale shark had never moved since it was transformed into a beastman.

"This is the true meaning of beastmanization," Xie Simang's eyes released that almost crazy light again, "It's not that the power of wildness in a single dimension becomes stronger, but it completely subverts the family system! Birds have power, and fish breathe with their lungs , we no longer have to wait for the establishment of a human marine society, the marine species will be completely released, and they will embark on land and embrace a brand new future."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the mist storage tank, towards the "medicine bottle" that he had extracted earlier but hadn't had time to unload.

"Don't even think about it—" The little fox came over from nowhere, hugged the whale shark's legs tightly again, and tried to buy time for Lu Qi.

Whale Shark's emotions that had just cooled down a little, exploded again, touching his legs was far more unbearable than any verbal stimulation, and the anger that came back was even worse than before.

It was these hands that tore away his secrets, and it was this guy who exposed his most embarrassing side!

Xie Simang leaned down and grabbed Hu Lingyu's head suddenly, and with only one hand, he firmly grasped the little fox's head, and then lifted it hard, and actually grabbed Hu Lingyu's head and lifted him into the air.

Hu Lingyu felt dizzy and had a splitting headache.

The next moment, I heard an extremely cold sentence——

"Die."

The flesh and blood were thrown against the reinforced concrete wall like rubbish. The force was so great that there was a terrifying muffled sound like bones shattering.

Hu Lingyu couldn't even cry out in pain, and his body fell to the ground limply, without making a sound.

Lu Qi's heart almost stopped suddenly, and he rushed over desperately: "Hu Lingyu——"

The little fox was hit on the head, blood flowed out, and as the body slid down, it rubbed a long bloodstain on the wall.

With only a trace of erratic consciousness left, Hu Lingyu vaguely heard Lu Qi shouting, as if calling his name, it was so ugly that even the tone of his voice changed.

But the eyelids were so heavy that he couldn't open them.

"Hu Lingyu, you can't sleep, don't sleep—"

It's not that I want to sleep!

Hu Lingyu was more anxious than anyone else, he wanted to tell Lu Qi to stop making noise, but he couldn't make a sound, and finally opened his eyelids with the remaining strength.

First, when he saw Lu Qi's face, he was a little pale, and he didn't know if he was in a hurry or frightened.

Caught off guard, the sika deer disappeared from Hu Lingyu's field of vision and was replaced by the Animal Control Bureau building. Although it was blurry and shaking violently, as if it might fall at any time, the familiar feeling still surrounded him all at once.

Could it be that the vital signs that were too severely injured and so weak that they were close to a state of suspended animation passively triggered the "space of suspended animation"?

This name Hu Lingyu made up by himself is used to distinguish it from "fake death", because the suspended animation does not necessarily come to this space, but the prerequisite for coming to this space must be to enter the suspended animation state.

The problem is that when you want to come, you can't come here no matter how you feign death. What's the use of coming here at this time? Can the files in the archives help arrest the whale shark?The top priority must be to hurry back and help Lu Qi!

Ignoring the Animal Control Bureau building in front of him, Hu Lingyu tried to concentrate...

Hey?

A thought suddenly flashed in the little fox's mind, accompanied by Xie Simang's arrogant declaration——

[Nirvana has been successful, it only takes ten years, no, maybe not even ten years, beast-humanization will become the "third state" of weak families after beast-like and half-beast-like, all human beings will see this The greatness of form...]

Maybe not for ten years.

So five years is okay?

Every time in the fake dead space, the time point is before he fell into the sea, sometimes the time is longer, sometimes shorter, but compared with the real time at this moment, everything in the fake dead space is a few years later" future".

At this point in time, Nirvana, an illegal drug, has already begun to circulate in the black market, so it is inevitable that new "beastmen" will appear. Xie Simang hopes that beastmanization will become a normalization, and it is likely that he will secretly contribute to the flames. Taking all factors into consideration, there is no reason for the Animal Control Bureau to be unaware of the "beastization".

But in the memory of Hu Lingyu's previous life, he had never heard any rumors about it.

Or is it that the Animal Control Bureau has actually grasped it, but the "beastization" is too serious and has too much impact on society, so it not only keeps it secret to the outside world, but also keeps it secret internally?

If so, even if Xie Simang hadn't been exposed, would there be information about other orcs in the archives?Maybe you can learn more about this form or even...weaknesses.

"Hu Lingyu!"

The sound of the sika deer was like thunder falling from the sky, splitting the animal control bureau building that was shaking and misplaced in front of Hu Lingyu's eyes into pieces.

Shattered at the end, gloomy and shimmering.

Hu Lingyu finally met Shanglu Qi's eyes and saw his own blood-stained shadow in his pupils.

On the other side, the whale shark has easily removed the "pill bottle" filled with Q substance.

But Lu Qi couldn't care anymore, he was in a hurry, his eyes were full of Hu Lingyu: "Hold on, I..."

"It's you who have to hold on." Hu Lingyu interrupted him with the same words, grabbing the sika deer's hand with difficulty, "I have to go back again...you help me buy time..."

Lu Qi: "Go back again?"

The little fox obviously had something to say, Lu Qi remembered the pulse and breath that Hu Lingyu could hardly detect just now, and then looked at the pair of weak but hopeful dog eyes in front of him at this moment...

Could it be that the serious injury made Hu Lingyu enter that magical suspended animation space again?

Last time I found information clues enough to destroy the entire Nirvana there, what are you looking for this time?

"Too much time has been wasted on the two of you," the whale shark not far away put away the "medicine bottle" and prepared to send the two children off for the last time. "Let's call it a day."

Whatever it was, the sika deer believed in his little fox.

"Go ahead, leave it to me," Lu Qi gently wiped Hu Lingyu's face, with gentle eyebrows, "but don't sleep for too long."

Hu Lingyu felt that the wild power in his body was rapidly draining, but he still gave a smile that reassured the sika deer.

The whale shark was approaching, and even with your eyes closed, you could feel the condescending shadow, blocking what little light was left in the dim lighting.

Hu Lingyu tried his best to ignore all perceptions, and mobilized the remaining wild power with all his heart, and finally recovered a little heartbeat, pulse, breathing, etc., and under the deliberate suppression, they became slow and weak again.

"boom--"

The sound of bodies colliding was right next to my ears, and the airflow caused by the fierce confrontation between the whale shark and the sika deer scraped across the little fox's face like a knife.

Hu Lingyu heard it. His shielding of perception was not successful, and even his broken head still gave him a splitting headache at this moment.However, on the other hand, his consciousness became blurred and confused under the efforts of feigning death.

The light consciousness and the real five senses became two diametrically opposed forces, pulling Hu Lingyu repeatedly on the way to the fake dead space.

"Well!"

It was Lu Qi's voice, although he tried his best to restrain himself.

The smell of blood in the room became stronger, and Hu Lingyu didn't dare to think about who it was.

The violent mood swings finally made the little fox break free, and run wildly towards the end of the misty consciousness.

Finally, he saw the familiar building again.

As far as the eye can see, it is more deformed and distorted than last time. The buildings are crooked, the ground is undulating, and the whole space is shaking violently, as if it may collapse at any time.

Hu Lingyu didn't care about it, saw the location and accelerated his dive, and plunged into the archives room in the building!

The dense file racks instantly filled the field of vision.

Hu Lingyu paused, because the last time he searched for Nirvana information, he basically went through all the files here in the past five years, and there was no record of beastmanization.

Assuming there is such a thing, but it is not in the archives, where will it be placed?

The vibration under his feet never stopped, the file rack shook in the bumps, and clods of soil continued to fall from the ceiling.

Hu Lingyu didn't know whether the precariousness of this space was related to his unsupported body, but he only knew that if he didn't think about it quickly, he would really have no chance.

Director's Office!

Yes, beastmanization is a confidential document that must not be spread. If it really exists in the Animal Control Bureau, you must find clues there.

"Boom—"

The floor slab of an unknown floor collapsed, and the entire archive room was shaken by the loud noise.

Time is running out.

Hu Lingyu carefully recalled the location of the director's office. Although he only went there on the day he entered the office, he always remembered it.

Cracks appeared on the wall of the archive room, and the ceiling covered the ceiling like spider webs in a very short time.

In an instant, the ceiling of the file room shattered.

Hu Lingyu rushed straight up against the falling concrete.

After crossing the floors, the sign of "Director's Office" finally appeared. Hu Lingyu was overjoyed and accelerated through the closed doors.

within one door.

The world was turned upside down.

There are no offices, just a rocky shore where the waves beat.In the hazy sky, the dark clouds blocking the moon became thinner, and finally the moon's shadow appeared, but it was only a faint mark, pale white.

Under the dark clouds, the waves came ashore in waves, rushing towards the two drenched people.

The young captain of the deer department pressed the chest of his drowning colleague again and again, and all the scenes were so familiar.

Hu Lingyu floated in the air, feeling as if he had returned to a dream.

But there was a slight difference—Captain Lu no longer said hoarsely, Hu Lingyu, wake up, okay?

There was no light in the eyes of the young action captain, only mechanical repetition of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and endless silence remained.His anxieties, his hopes, and all his passionate things were annihilated in the long passage of time.

A reef beach where the sun never rises.

A man who will never wake up again.

Hu Lingyu didn't want to watch anymore, he wanted to go back, to the space of suspended animation, to the battlefield of the medical building, wherever he wanted to go.

"Cough cough..."

The fox officer lying below suddenly coughed up a mouthful of seawater.

The little fox in mid-air widened his eyes in disbelief. He clearly felt his heart beating wildly despite his incorporeal existence. For a moment, he couldn't even tell who the heartbeat came from.

The tide surged ashore, rushing harder than ever before.

Before Hu Lingyu had time to see Captain Lu's expression clearly, he regained consciousness in the sound of the waves.

Desks, filing cabinets, reception seats...

The little fox in the director's office still had the salty smell of the sea breeze in his nostrils.

The chief is not here.

The building is still shaking.

In the deafening crash, there was even the roar of the whale shark.

Hu Lingyu was completely confused, and had no time to think about whether everything on the reef shore was an illusion. He concentrated on staring at the file cabinet, and raced against time to browse the things inside.

no……

no……

still none!

Not to mention the animalized files, there are no ordinary case files, except for some books, there are only non-confidential public documents.

Could it be that he guessed wrong?Maybe something happened that he didn't know, so the orcization didn't surface in the near future as Xie Simang imagined?

Hu Lingyu was surrounded by great depression, it was as if you had worked so hard to cross mountains and ridges, thinking you would find a treasure, but in the end there was only a desert.

His gaze dropped weakly, but he inadvertently glanced under the desk.

A chest of drawers is quietly placed there. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary under-table cabinet, but if you look closely, you will find that the material is clearly made of strong metal that can only be used in safes. There is no lock hole on each drawer, but independent fingerprints , Password double safety lock.

Hu Lingyu's eyes lit up, and he had a strong premonition that this was it!

Concentrate on, concentrate all the wild power...

The scene in the chest of drawers gradually became clear.

There are not many things, most of them are some documents, some with file bags, and some with file boxes.

Hu Lingyu checked from top to bottom——

Personnel Transfer Order (Top Secret)...

List of XX undercover operators...

2.09 Extraordinary animalized murder...

Normally, Hu Lingyu could read any one of these documents with interest for a long time, but now time is tight, as long as he reads two lines and finds that it is not what he is looking for, he will skip it and go on to the next one.

Half-beast reconnaissance exercise (confidential)...

A summary of special cases of animalization...

Hu Lingyu stopped suddenly, staring at the three long-sought words.

Finally, he regained his composure, and quickly browsed down, and the contents of each page were presented——

Case number one

Name: Liu XX

Sex: Male

Family: sparrow

Details: Dead when found, bird head, human body, with wings on the back, and a few feathers on the skin, see the photo for details.After autopsy, he died of drug poisoning, and it was suspected that the animalization was related to the drug.

Others: The bone weight of the deceased was obviously higher than the average level of Aviidae, and close to the bone weight of large canines, which is contrary to the characteristics of Ornithidae.The light skeleton is an important basis for the flight of a lycanthropy, and it is impossible to judge whether the deceased can fly in the lycanthropy state.

Case [-]

Name: Jiang X

Sex: Male

Family: Hedgehog

Details: The suspect in the major robbery and wounding case on 11.04 was in the form of a beast when he committed the crime, and there are clear monitoring records.Backstabs are denser and sharper than half-beasts of the same genus, and their action speed and resistance are comparable to those of big cats...

Case Three

Name:……

In the thick file box, there are dozens of cases summarized, and the families and genera are scattered all over the place.Except for a very small number who were found dead, the vast majority of criminals are at large.

Hu Lingyu saw the last case in one breath, and his heart became heavier and colder.He wanted to find a way to restrain orcization, but these cases only presented the horror and ferocity of orcization to him more intuitively and comprehensively.

The author of the case summary seems to be powerless, and between the lines of the report is calm, restrained and helpless.

Case 34

Name: Dou XX

Sex: Male

Family: muskrat

Details: Stealing, in beastman form when committing the crime, arrested and brought to justice in XX Wetland Reserve on the same day.The rat head is several times stronger than the half-beasts of the same family, and its movement speed and resistance are comparable to that of medium-sized canines.The jumping ability is particularly strong, which is contrary to the characteristics of muskrats.

Others: The suspect was resting in the swamp when he was arrested. During the arrest, his speed and strength dropped to the normal level of murine half-beasts. His swimming ability was excellent, which fit the characteristics of a muskrat.

This is the last case and the only case where the arrest was successful.

Hu Lingyu intuitively felt that there should be some information that he could use. After all, the arrest was successful, right? However, the writer's words were so concise that there were no waves or details, leaving no room for deep thinking.

All the cases are over, but there is still one last page in the summary report.

It should be a summary statement or something, Hu Lingyu thought casually, and moved his eyes there without any hope——

It can be seen that each orc has displayed a power that does not match or is extremely inconsistent with its own family, and some even repel the ability of the original family, such as the weight of the bones of the bird family, which makes up for the lack of strength but will inevitably affect Flying, etc. will not be listed.

Combined with the forensic autopsy results of Cases [-], [-], and [-], the three deceased were forcibly activated by unknown drugs to activate new awakened cells. The newly awakened cells were completely controlled by drugs and were extremely unstable, and they could not fuse with the old awakened cells. The degree is higher, and the awakening is more dominant, so in the beastman, the characteristics of the newly awakened cells are more obvious.

Above, the case summary is completed.

The following are all personal opinions and are for reference only:

Since the original awakened cells of the beastman have not been fused and are only temporarily "recessed", and the newly awakened cells stimulated by the drug are not stable, is there a possibility that under certain circumstances, the original awakened cells of the beastman The awakened cells will regain the upper hand, and the newly awakened cells temporarily "sleep" or even "shrink"?

For example, the muskrat Dou XX in No. 30 No. [-] case was discovered on the spot when he committed the crime, and he escaped forcibly when our personnel arrived. At the daytime level, I can't see any difference from ordinary muskrat beasts. After being arrested, I can't explain my weakened wild power, and because of this, I lose control of my emotions. However, during the interrogation process, the wild power gradually returned to the orc level.

In this process, only the "environment" changes.Is it possible that the swamp, which is the muskrat's favorite swamp, arouses the genus instinct in the muskrat, rejuvenates the old awakened cells innately, and temporarily overwhelms the newly awakened cells?

There is no scientific basis for the above speculation, but I always believe that the genus instinct of lycanthropists is engraved in the genes, and no acquired intervention can really overcome it. This is the mystery of awakening and the magic of life.
