American Comics: The Matrix

Chapter 484 Bant: Who isn't an evolved human?
Upon entering the tower, the temperature plummeted.

This is indeed a huge tower, about five or six hundred meters high, almost twice the height of the famous Eiffel Tower.

However, the tower's exterior is damaged, indicating that a monster had clearly wreaked havoc there.

"It looks like the orcs have all left."

Sirius Twelve Paths.

“You’re very lucky because there are two people in charge of this tower, one of whom is me,” he said.

"And I just happened to go to another universe with you, otherwise even if my people left with the person you were looking for, I would still have continued to lead the orcs to attack."

He remained confident in the fighting prowess of his race.

This is understandable, though. Even before they were fully enhanced, the evolved humans were already incredibly brave, and now they are even more powerful.

Let alone Connorson, even if Hulk came, he might not be their match in the short term.

While using anger to infinitely amplify one's power is powerful, the process of accumulating anger is still too lengthy.

Moreover, while there may be no limit to strengthening, there is a limit to anger.

At a certain point, anger may transform into fear and helplessness.

“But you’re in luck, because the person you’re going to face next is me,” Bant said.

“I know you’re strong, but you’re far too arrogant,” the evolved human said. “You have no idea what you’re about to face.”

“Hundreds and thousands of my kin, each possessing immense power…”

Sirius XII couldn't continue speaking.

Because Bant actually transformed into an evolved human right in front of him, with a body covered in white fur, strong arms and claws, and even an opening in his chest that extended tentacle-like organs.

This……

Even within his own kind, this is a remarkably high level of existence!
"now what?"

Sirius XII: ...

"Let's go."

You've already transformed, so what can I say?

The two entered the tower.

“The refrigeration system here has been destroyed, so the orcs can no longer be cultivated. No wonder he left,” Sirius XII said.

The cold air in the air was leftover from before, and even most of the snow had melted.

Sirius looked at the tower, which resembled a house wrecked by a husky, and gained a concrete understanding of the destructive power of the captured creature.

It's roughly equivalent to the Vakssarai, which is the level of the Divine Tyrannosaurus.

They were even slightly inferior to the Ataso people of the past, let alone the people they are now.

But for a lower race, it's already quite impressive that they've managed to do this.

Even though Sirius XII has changed his views on humanity and realized the errors in his past beliefs, he still finds it difficult to change his subconscious arrogance.

"The passage is this way."

The evolved human led Bant to the entrance of the passage. Along the way, he saw many orc larvae waiting to hatch in the cold water, but due to the destruction of the refrigeration device, these embryos had fallen into a deep sleep.

The two passed through the passage and arrived in the Kree Empire in an instant.

It must be said that the technology of the evolved humans is indeed powerful. Their species is in a similar crisis to that of the Kryptonians, except that the Kryptonians are trapped in a fixed program and cannot adapt, while the evolved humans have lost their diversity in the long process of reproduction.

Almost all living evolved humans are remarkably similar in their gene arrangement, almost like clones.

Their offspring, like the Japanese royal family, naturally suffer from various genetic diseases.

As soon as Bant and Sirius stepped through the passage, they saw a large number of orcs moving about. "These used to be Kree."

Sirius XII explained, "After being parasitized by an embryo, the original host's genes are forcibly taken over and transformed into these lower organisms."

"Steve Rogers would have ended up like them, but the cube took him away."

The orcs immediately made way for Bant and Sirius.

In their eyes, evolved humans are gods who cannot be defied.

But it's a different story in the eyes of truly evolved humans.

"You... are Sirius XII?"

An evolved human discovered them, and upon seeing Sirius XII, the man's expression turned one of surprise and disbelief.

"it's me……"

As for Sirius XII, he felt utterly ashamed.

He desperately tried to cover his body.

His awkward demeanor made it look like he was exposing himself on the street.

Sirius XII: It's all Bant's job.

"Why has your body become like this? And who is he?"

The evolved human stared intently at Sirius XII and immediately raised his claws, seemingly intending to execute Sirius.

As for Bant, he seemed to be just an insignificant addition to his life.

After all, Bant is now in the form of an evolved human. In terms of appearance, he looks more like an ordinary evolved human than Sirius, who is covered in green spots and has been assimilated by the swamp fire gene.

Sirius was initially somewhat intimidated by the other's gaze, but upon considering the future of his race—which would either result in everyone ending up like him or dying—he was no longer afraid. He clenched his fist and said, "I have found a way to save my race. The genetic collapse in my body has been resolved."

"Let me see the elders!"

His voice attracted other evolved humans.

Most evolved humans look like they were cut from the same mold, even their body patterns are almost identical.

However, there are occasionally some more advanced individuals, who are larger and stronger.

"Sirius XII, what's with those spots on your body? What's with your arms? Have you tarnished our noble bloodline?"

As a race whose intelligence is likely second only to the Gavinians, and one of the few in the Young Matrix universe capable of modifying the genes of other species, the Evolved Humans are extremely sensitive to changes in Sirius.

"Sirius XII, your actions have brought shame upon your family! You are a disgrace to our race!"

"And you, Bant Parker!"

"You lowly being, how dare you imitate us!"

Bant was surprised: "You guys actually recognized me?"

"We're not blind yet; your core strength has already been exposed!"

After transforming into an evolved human, the core of the watch is located on the chest, and it is actually quite obvious if not deliberately concealed.

“Actually, I didn’t want to become like you either.” Bant deactivated his transformation. “You’re covered in ailments, what a pathetic life.”

Evolved humans may be powerful, but their broken genes cause their bodies to ache constantly.

This prolonged torment is as long and drawn-out as the pain of a toothache.

"You lowly creature, what do you know!"

The evolved human roared, "Gentlemen, Sirius XII's bloodline has been corrupted! He has betrayed our noble Ataso! Execute him and that lowly species immediately!"
