Start getting stronger by modifying your breathing method

Chapter 446 Destiny [I]

Wu Yang did not answer immediately.

Instead, take a deep breath.

He waited until the whispers in his ears and the stabbing pain in his head disappeared before he sat up with the girl's help.

Subsequently.

He looked at the girl.

"I'm fine! Thank you so much for this time, Coal Ball!"

The cat-eared girl in front of him was actually the black cat from before.

"Humph! Don't get me wrong. I'm not concerned about you. It's just that if something happens to you, I'll be implicated."

The cat-eared girl was stared at by Wu Yang, snorted coldly, and turned her head to one side.

It seemed that he didn't care about what Wu Yang said.

However, the cat ears on her head that kept swaying slightly revealed that she enjoyed what he said.

In this case.

Wu Yang had already gotten used to it.

He turned his eyes to the closed black book on the table.

Recall what just happened.

His expression became uncertain for a moment.

He didn't understand why he was just watching a picture.

That will cause such a big reaction.

You know, something like this has never happened before.

"Coal Ball, do you know what happened just now?"

Wu Yang rubbed his temples with his fingertips to relieve the headache he had just suffered.

While looking at the cat-eared girl on the side.

Hear the words.

The cat-eared girl's expression also became somewhat solemn.

"If my guess is correct, there should be some extremely terrifying existence at some level of life in that picture, like some alien organism that cannot be looked at directly!"

The cat-eared girl said in a deep voice.

"This kind of existence cannot be observed by the naked eye and can be eroded by any medium."

Hear what the other person says.

Wu Yang paused while massaging his temple.

"You mean, the other party used the picture book as a medium to do something to me?"

The cat-eared girl shook her head.

“No, to be more precise, this is just an unconscious behavior, and the other party may not even be aware of what is happening here.

Just like ordinary people looking directly at the midday sun will be hurt by the sun's rays. "

Wu Yang's expression paused.

He had never expected this to happen.

What shocked him most was that he had never even truly looked directly at that existence.

Merely conducting indirect observation through the picture book could lead to such a serious backlash.

Thinking of this, the last picture just now flashed back in my mind.

At the last moment.

The pictures in the sketchbook became clear and realistic.

He also really saw what it was.

It was a giant snake with pale, lifeless scales.

Just as he recalled this scene.

He groaned and his temple throbbed.

The headache, mumbling and snow noise in the vision that had finally been relieved came back again.

The whole world seemed to be peeling away in front of him.

"Damn it!"

Wu Yang clenched his teeth and forced himself to divert his attention.

As my thoughts drifted away, the feeling subsided slightly.

It took him more than ten seconds to recover.

Thinking about what just happened.

His voice was hoarse as if squeezed out from between his teeth.

"What on earth is that?"

A sense of doubt and uncertainty arose in my heart.

Originally he was just an ordinary person.

but.

It started from the moment he got this picture book.

Everything is different.

His life changed completely.

What no one knows is.

Those so-called xenobiotics.

It all comes from him.

No, to be more precise.

They are all products from his work in this picture book.

The ability of this picture book is to turn imaginary things into reality.

Just write the alien's appearance and ability settings on it in the form of a painting.

There will be one more alien being in this world.

But it's a pity.

This sketchbook has certain restrictions on what can be embodied in it.

And, because of my own hobbies and interests.

He chose to create one alien after another.

However, in order to avoid accidents that could lead to one's own death.

After figuring out the purpose of this picture book.

He also immediately arranged some life-saving items for himself.

Think of this.

He raised his wrist and looked at it.

I saw that the string of Buddhist beads originally hanging on his hand had undergone tremendous changes compared to before.

Originally there were eighteen beads on it.

But now, all those beads were shattered on the ground.

There are only three left on it.

And there were tiny cracks on all three of them.

It seemed as if it would shatter in the next moment.

See this scene.

Wu Yang's face turned pale.

He had heard the sound of something breaking before.

But I didn't expect it to break into so many pieces.

This is an alien body that he tailored for himself.

He named it "Black Buddha Beads"

Each bead not only represents a life, but also contains different abilities.

These include extremely fast movement, absolute defense, immortality, etc.

It can be said to be an alien organism that has both offensive and defensive capabilities and does not have any obvious flaws.

But now fifteen of them have been broken.

Doesn't this mean that he died fifteen times in that instant?

If there was no such thing.

I'm afraid he died a long time ago.

Thinking of this, a drop of cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

Wu Yang didn't know.

That's why he reacted so strongly.

This is because according to his request, the picture book presents Hu Qi's true self in a high-definition and realistic picture.

This is more serious than those cases where you only see scales and claws.

……

The only good news is that this string of black Buddhist beads was not completely damaged.

As time passed, the fragments scattered on the ground gradually disappeared, and the eighteen Buddhist beads on his wrist reappeared, as if they had never been damaged.

He turned his eyes away from his wrist.

Wu Yang looked at the girl with cat ears.

"Meigu, can you open it and take a look? Then tell me what's inside. I need to know what happened."

The current situation made him extremely uneasy, and he felt as if it was beyond his control.

After all, that guy is too scary.

Even in the picture book, I can't look at it directly.

But he had to know what was going on.

Now we can only place our hope on this cat-eared girl named "Coal Ball".

Because the other party is also a heterogenous organism.

It can even be said to be a stronger alien than "God".

Created by him, to stay by his side to entertain him and protect him.

I didn't think there was anything wrong at first.

Now it seems that my choice was extremely wise.

If it weren't for the other party.

I'm afraid I will die here today.

Think of this.

There was nothing but shock and anger in his heart.

There was also a hint of fear.

That was the fear of the unknown pale giant snake.

This emotion.

He has not appeared since he obtained the picture book.

During the long years after obtaining the picture book, everything in the world was just a plaything for him to manipulate at will.

The reason why the human race has not yet become extinct is purely because of the little bit of humanity that remains.

After all, he is still a human being. He cannot escape the nature of a social animal and cannot tolerate absolute loneliness.

If he really turned the world into dead silence, he would probably be the first one to go crazy.

But he was tired of the eternal tranquility of this world.

It was this contradiction that caused him to give birth to countless xenomorphs, making the world "interesting".

To him, the world is his private property.

He is the only god in this world, and all things should submit to his will.

However, at this moment, a being beyond his control appeared and even injured him.

This unprecedented feeling of loss of control was something he absolutely did not want to see.

"I can try!"

Looking at Wu Yang like this.

The cat-eared girl can clearly feel the psychological changes of her master.

So, this time the cat-eared girl was not as arrogant as before.

Instead, he nodded seriously.

Then the figure twisted and turned into a black cat.

He kicked his legs slightly and jumped directly onto the desk.

Then he stretched out his claws and turned the page.

Wu Yang was watching this scene intently from the side.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that there was no problem with the other party.

Fortunately, "Coal Ball" can be watched.

Although he also wanted to know what was recorded in it?
But we can learn from the previous experience.

For a moment, he didn't dare to look at that thing directly.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was the rustling of pages turning.

After a while.

The black cat stopped moving.

"How about it?"

Wu Yang saw this.

I couldn't help but ask.

"I see. It was done by an alien creature called the World-Ringing Serpent!"

The black cat replied in that sweet girlish voice.

But there was a hint of solemnity in its tone. Then, under its narration, the information in the picture book was revealed.

This also made Wu Yang roughly understand what was going on.

"T5 level, a huge body surrounding the entire Cape Star, controlling and occupying the body of the chief researcher of the White Tower..."

Wu Yang's face was gloomy as he digested the information he got from the black cat.

Because of this picture book.

In the long years.

It's not like he hasn't seen some strange alien organisms before.

These alien creatures were not drawn by him.

Instead, one or two appear every once in a while.

just.

The strength of these alien organisms is just average.

At most it is around T3 level.

Even an alien organism that poses a T4 catastrophic threat has never appeared.

It can be easily sealed and contained by sending out a scavenger team composed of prisoners.

But the one that appeared this time was obviously different.

"The reason for God's death, in addition to the World Ring Serpent, was that he violated the rules and constraints you set and revealed your information."

At this time.

The black cat seemed to remember something.

Added.

"Also, according to the contents of the picture book, the World-Ringing Snake may have known of your existence, Wu Yang."

Wu Yang's originally gloomy expression suddenly changed.

"Such a thing could happen!"

'God' can be said to be one of his two most perfect creations.

Different from other heterologous organisms.

Possess wisdom no less than that of humans.

Knowing his existence.

He could be said to have deeply experienced the horror of this world-encircling snake.

If I let the other party find me, I can tell without even thinking about it that nothing good will happen.

It seemed that he saw through Wu Yang's thoughts.

The black cat continued.

"You don't have to worry too much. 'God' only revealed that there is a creator behind him. As for the other information, it was backfired and died before it could say anything else!"

Hear the words.

Wu Yang felt relieved.

I thought about it.

He stepped forward.

Just turn the picture book to the latest page.

Then he picked up a pen and started drawing on a blank page.

Soon.

A black helmet appeared in his hand. The front mirror was not made of transparent glass, but silver-white.

He named this alien: Forbidden Helmet.

It can automatically convert all the information and pictures you see.

Isolate influence.

If the 'coal briquettes' can be looked at directly, then he should be able to look at them as well, as long as he takes some precautions.

Put your helmet on.

He also instructed the black cat beside him to close the sketchbook immediately if any problems arose.

Then let the picture book transform the picture of the World-Ringing Serpent into the simplest minimalist style.

After some careful testing, Wu Yang finally confirmed that he could look directly at the pattern of the world-encircling snake in the picture book without being affected.

His tense nerves finally relaxed a little.

It seems that the protective measures taken have indeed worked.

The more urgent task at the moment is how to completely destroy this world-encircling snake.

Wu Yang's eyes gradually became sharper. He would never allow such a dangerous alien that was out of his control to exist in this world.

However, if you want to destroy the other party, you need to understand the other party first.

Staring at the open sketchbook, he picked up a pen and wrote a few words on it.

"Tell me all about the Ringworld Serpent!"

Until he made his final stroke.

The line of writing disappeared.

The page went blank again.

However, the next second.

Ink began to move on the originally blank painting page.

However, the handwriting disappeared after appearing halfway, as if it was interfered with by some invisible interference.

Finally, after repeating this several times, Wu Yang was beginning to lose his patience.

A few lines of text appeared crookedly on the page:
[Codename: World-Ringing Snake]

[Known and demonstrated abilities: Eternal life form, body parasitism, mental coercion, atomic manipulation, space shifting, and the rest are unknown...]

Watch this scene.

Wu Yang looked very unhappy.

The abilities obtained so far have all been demonstrated by the other party. As for whether the other party has other abilities, even the painting book does not know.

Just as he was concentrating on thinking, the picture book suddenly moved without wind, and the pages flew wildly.

What is even more frightening is that dozens of pages are fading and disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if they are being gradually erased by some invisible force.

Wu Yang's pupils suddenly shrank.

He was very familiar with this phenomenon.

This was the case when he tore up the first alien's painting page with his own hands for the purpose of experiment.

This situation represents the demise of the heterolog.

Not temporarily, but killed by complete erasure from the physical plane.

Wu Yang instantly realized what was going on.

"It's that guy!"

All alien organisms possess the characteristic of immortality.

This is the final result obtained by the White Tower after countless various experiments.

Currently, in this world.

Except him.

Only the World-Ringing Snake can kill the alien.

It was obviously the other party who took action this time.

only.

This speed is a bit too fast.

……

An island is located deep in the ocean, surrounded by vast sea water.

Look carefully.

It can be found that the location of this island is constantly moving.

In the center of the island, there is an open space surrounded by barbed wire.

A scavenger in khaki protective suit is busy at work.

They pushed a sealed metal box, and the red "Dangerous Organisms" logo on the box was particularly glaring in the sun.

Through the narrow observation window on the box, the distorted and deformed outlines of the limbs can be vaguely seen.

These are all alien organisms that are being held captive inside the White Tower.

Some have multiple eyes, some have limbs that grow in a way that defies common sense, and some have entire bodies that are constantly wriggling and changing.

At this moment, all these alien organisms were pushed out.

These scavengers didn't interact much with each other.

They completed their work in silence.

For a moment, the only sounds in the field were the sound of the metal box wheels rolling over sand and gravel and the rustling sound of the protective clothing rubbing against each other.

Their destination is the most central location.

there.

A black hole-shaped vortex was suspended in the air one meter high.

It slowly rotates clockwise, with a faint blue glow at the edges, as if it is connected to some unknown dimension.

As the boxes were pushed closer.

The alien organisms that were originally walking around curiously or constantly agitated suddenly stopped moving. Even if you look closely, you can find that these alien organisms are still trembling.

Some alien objects are also shaking constantly, as if they want to escape from this place.

Wait until the box is pushed close to the whirlpool.

Immediately, he was dragged in by a pulling force.

The entire box, along with the alien organism inside, disappeared.

In this case.

The scavengers were a little surprised.

But I didn’t think much about it.

I just thought that this was some kind of ability of some alien organism, and that by putting these alien organisms into it, I could contain them more effectively.

After all, they, the scavengers, are just peripheral personnel of the White Tower.

The real core has always been the senior researchers.

They just have to do their job well.

As for the rest, they can't control it.

……

at the same time.

On top of a tall white tower not far from here.

Hu Qi stood on the highest floor of a tower.

Holding the railing, he gazed at the scene in the distance.

Standing next to him was a thin old man with white hair and a long beard.

If there were other core members of the White Tower here.

You will recognize the identity of this old man.

It's not someone else.

It was the commander with the highest authority in the White Tower, and the Lord of the White Tower: Kostu.

However, the strange thing was that the other party was standing to one side like a subordinate at this moment.

"Except for a few alien entities used to guard this place, all the others in the White Tower have been sent here!"

Kostu explained in a low voice.

His eyes looked towards where Hu Qi was, and a hint of fanaticism flashed across them.

It's like facing the god you believe in.

In response, Hu Qi just nodded.

Look at the black vortex below.

This thing can be regarded as a passage leading to the main body of the snake.

All the alien organisms thrown in entered the stomach of the main body.

As a good young man from Blue Star.

The fine traditional virtue of saving food has always been deeply engraved in his mind.

Although the modification values ​​provided by these heterologous bodies are pitifully small, they accumulate to a considerable amount.

Of course there is one more thing.

Harvesting these xenomorphs is also a way for him to find out the person behind the source.

Although 'God' did not give any detailed information.

But Hu Qi already had some speculation about this so-called 'Creator' in his mind.

The other party is most likely a human being, or at least appears in human form.

This judgment is not groundless.

When I saw that 'God', I saw the book he was holding in his hand.

It is a book about the study of human psychology.

Another thing is the classics displayed on the bookshelf.

"The Social Contract", "Das Kapital", "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind". Looking around, there are classics on economics, sociology, and psychology that study human civilization and thinking.

How could an alien being comparable to a god be so fascinated by these works that explore human society?

This is a bit too incongruous.

Gather information about the 'Creator' behind the scenes.

Therefore, it can be judged that this "Creator" is most likely a human being.

And this 'God' who has a self and normal intelligence studies these books.

It’s because I simply want to understand humans better and I’m curious about them.

Or... to find a way to escape the control of the 'Creator'?
