Chapter 451 Void Creatures [IV]

but.

Hu Qi's arrival changed all that.

In a way.

He saved the world indirectly, although this was not his subjective behavior.

But if it wasn't him.

Once this void creature is hatched.

The whole world will become its food.

The creatures in it naturally have no choice but to die.

And now this void creature has been swallowed by Hu Qi.

This crisis will naturally be resolved.

But no matter what the outcome.

Wu Yang's death is almost inevitable.

Because it has formed an extremely close symbiotic relationship with this void creature.

It's like some kind of life contract.

Once this void creature completes hatching and appears.

The first person to die was Wu Yang.

And, the most likely possibility is that it will devour Wu Yang's soul and walk the world with his body.

After all, according to the information he knew.

Except for a very small number of void creatures.

Most of them have no body.

Therefore, after being successfully hatched.

They will choose a body to parasitize.

And this Wu Yang is obviously the body chosen by the other party.

According to the inherited memory of the multi-eyed white worm, the growth of void creatures is divided into three clear stages:
The first stage is the incubation period, which is the state before the worm, like this multi-eyed white worm, breaks out of its shell.

This is the period when the void creatures are at their weakest, but even so, the strength they display is already comparable to that of true gods.

The second stage is the infancy stage. When the void creature breaks out of its shell, it can truly enter the realm of true god.

Void creatures at this stage already have complete combat capabilities.

The third stage is the completion stage, which is the fully mature form of the void creature.

The inherited memory shows that in the Sumeru Sea, only beings at the Dao Lord level can contend with it.

It is worth noting that there are significant differences in the strength of different types of void creatures.

Creatures like the multi-eyed white worm are only considered average among void creatures.

It is rumored that there exist void creatures called the Void Royal Family there.

At the same level, its terror is far beyond that of ordinary void creatures.

Besides.

Another point.

Although the strength of the void creatures is terrifying.

But compared to the true God in the Sumeru Sea.

Void creatures have a fatal weakness.

That's because their lifespan is too short.

Different types of void creatures have different lifespans.

At least tens of thousands of years, at most tens of millions of years.

Compared with ordinary people, this level of lifespan is almost the same as immortality, and is enough to cover several civilizations.

But compared to the immortal true God, he can only be regarded as a short-lived ghost.

This congenital defect has become the most fatal weakness of void creatures.

The life cycle of void creatures is surprisingly uneven.

If his life span is divided into ten equal parts.

The incubation stage consumes 30% of the time.

Of the remaining 70%, 50% to 60% occur during childhood.

Only in the last tenth of their lives can they enter the true stage of perfection and push their own strength to the peak.

Moreover, unlike the creatures in the Sumeru Sea, the strength improvement of the void creatures does not rely on their own hard work.

They are also unable to improve their strength through practice or enlightenment, and can only passively rely on time to grow.

And when they truly enter their complete form, it also means that they are about to reach the end of their lives.

This growth model means.

Void creatures spend their entire lives growing, and when they finally transform into their complete form, their lives are about to come to an end.

Perhaps it is this strict lifespan limit and long growth cycle that protects the Sumeru Sea from the ravages of void creatures.

As for the reason why Hu Qi was trapped before, it was also because of this void creature.

Although void creatures have different forms and abilities, all individuals have one common characteristic:
They must complete hatching by absorbing the essence of the world.

This parasitic behavior produces special effects.

The rules of the world parasitized by void creatures will be strengthened by the characteristics of the void, and the spatial structure will be extremely stable.

The entire world will transform into a one-way cage that no being can escape from.

This also led to the fact that even a strong man like Aldina who had reached the limit of the second level of True God.

After entering, one's own strength will be greatly weakened under the suppression of the rules, and it will be completely unable to fight against the void creatures that are hatching.

It can be said.

Even if Hu Qi didn't chase in.

It was unlikely that Aldina would get out alive.

Under this mode.

Once a void creature successfully parasitizes and enters the hatching stage, the possibility of its death is greatly reduced.

only.

I’m afraid that void creature will never think of this until it dies.

Because of the 'Vest Pass' that Hu Qi exchanged from the Samsara Book House.

He is not suppressed by the rules of this world and can exert his full strength.

This also resulted in this void creature being found and easily swallowed by Hu Qi before it was fully hatched.

It was such a frustrating death.

Another point.

After the void creatures are successfully hatched, they will destroy and ruin everything.

Return these worlds to nothingness.

This is their mission engraved deep in their souls.

The behavior of the void creatures is similar to that of the three-eyed snake in some ways.

But it's even worse.

The only good thing is that the number of these void creatures is not large, and even if they appear, they will only exist in the Abyssless Realm.

Because the world origin in other areas is simply not enough to support the incubation of powerful life forms like void creatures.

therefore.

Plus the limitation of life span.

It basically will not go to its deep water zone, shallow wave zone, and tidal zone.

This may also be the reason why no traces of void creatures have been found before.

Think about this.

Hu Qi withdrew his thoughts.

He looked down at the Cap star in front of him.

During this period, the situation on Cape has undergone significant changes.

……

Long Yi was originally just an ordinary young man.

His identity is a worker who drives screws in a factory.

He originally thought that he would spend his whole life in this way.

Until the advent of the 'Destiny System'.

This made him see an opportunity to change his destiny.

Because he understands.

If nothing unexpected happens, people like him have no academic qualifications and no background.

It's impossible to make it in this life.

It would have been fine if there hadn't been an opportunity before.

But now there is an opportunity to become a superior person.

Of course he couldn't give up. The worst that could happen was that he would die.

In fact, there are many people like him everywhere. They just lack an opportunity or live in the wrong era.

There is a saying that heroes are made by the times.

That's what I'm talking about.

He's lucky.

Encountered a alien creature that was not immediately fatal.

Just when he was almost seriously injured and on the verge of death, he successfully contained an alien.

The reward from the system made him a capable person.

His abilities are strong and special.

He named it Longhua.

This is because this ability will give him the characteristics of a legendary dragon.

Dragon horns, dragon scales, dragon claws, and even the ability to breathe fire, bringing clouds and rain to an area.

This powerful ability made him rise quickly among the people with special abilities.

During this period of time, he earned money that he could never have imagined in his entire life.

He thought he would continue to become stronger, or die at the hands of an alien one day.

But things took a turn he didn't expect.

The 'Destiny System' has disappeared.

No warning, no trace.

Just as suddenly as it had arrived, everyone in the world lost contact with the system overnight.

Those alien organisms also disappeared, as if they had never existed.

He originally planned to use the power of the system to continue to improve, and had even reached the threshold of a higher level.

But now, everything has come to a halt.

However, this sentiment did not last long.

He reacted.

Since the 'Destiny System' has disappeared and the aliens no longer exist, wouldn't people with special abilities like him become the only 'supermen' in the world?
There are no system constraints and no threats from xenobiotics.

They can totally...take control of the world.

He quickly sketched a plan in his mind.

Contact other surviving people with special abilities and form an alliance.

Even... establish a new order of their own.

However, just as this thought came into being, before he even had time to act on it, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck.

The dragon scales on his body emerged instinctively, but ultimately they could not resist the collapse of his consciousness.

The whole person lost consciousness immediately.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

His consciousness emerged from the chaos and he heard the sound of several people talking.

"What are the vital signs of this experimental subject now?"

“It’s incredibly stable.

The cell activity is more than ten times that of ordinary people, and the speed of wound healing is simply contrary to biological common sense.

Moreover, he is very resistant to poison.

Conventional neurotoxins, blood toxins, and even highly corrosive substances have minimal effect on him.

Experimental records show that only certain synthetic chemical toxins with special proportions can cause damage to it."

“Tsk, this isn’t the complete form yet.

The database shows that he can also transform his entire body into a dragon. Wait, this guy's brain wave frequency is rising."

"Hiss, a dose that can knock down an elephant for three days only worked on him for such a short time? The anesthetic concentration should be increased by at least 50% in the next experiment."

……

Hearing these words, Long Yi's eyelids trembled violently, and the next second.

He opened his eyes directly.

As far as he could see, at this moment, he was in a sterile room with cold light.

Silvery-white light slanted down from the ceiling.

The metal walls around it shone with a dazzling cold light.

now.

Outside the glass wall not far in front of him.

There were three figures in white research uniforms looking here.

While observing him, he would occasionally take a pen and record data.

Obviously.

These three people were the ones who just spoke.

The three of them looked at Long Yi who had just woken up, their eyes were as if they were looking at a monster.

Long Yi was not unfamiliar with this kind of gaze.

Ever since he became a person with special abilities.

Ordinary people almost all have this expression when they see him.

But, compared to others.

The looks in the eyes of the three people in front of me were somewhat different.

There was less fear and awe in his eyes.

There was an additional look as if he was looking at animals in a zoo.

Ever since becoming a person with special abilities, Long Yi has become extremely sensitive to the gazes of people around him.

I noticed this easily.

Think about the previous conversation between the three people.

It is not difficult to draw a conclusion.

He, Long Yi, was captured and used as a guinea pig for research.

Think about this.

He moved.

I found that I felt a dense tingling sensation all over my body.

It was as if someone had used a blade to cut wounds on his body while he was sleeping.

Moreover, there was a black metal collar around his neck.

See this scene.

A feeling of anger rose in my heart.

Long Yi's eyes suddenly turned into cold brass-colored vertical pupils, and the cold murderous intent condensed in the air as if it had substance.

Fine dragon scale patterns quickly appeared on the surface of his skin.

With an angry roar, two streams of blazing flames burst out of his nostrils, leaving distorted heat waves in the air.

"How dare you, a bunch of lowly ants, treat me like this..."

Before he finished speaking, the metal collar around his neck suddenly burst into a dazzling blue light.

The violent electric currents instantly ran through his body like millions of poisonous snakes. His muscles spasmed uncontrollably in severe pain, and his brass-colored pupils contracted violently.

"Ugh—!"

With the dull sound of bones hitting the ground, Long Yi fell heavily to the ground.

Those terrifying dragon-like features faded away like the tide, revealing the original pale skin color.

At the same time, the metal needle hidden inside the collar popped out and accurately pierced the nerve node at the back of the neck.

The moment the high concentration of anesthetic was injected into his blood vessels, his last bit of consciousness was completely swallowed up by darkness.

……

"Dragon number 0012, risk index four stars, it is recommended to increase the anesthesia dose, its ability has extremely high research value..."

Standing in front of the glass wall, the leading researcher watched the scene with a calm expression.

Write this line on the book in your hand.

Then, he turned and walked towards the glass cabin with the two of them.

Look up.

In this space.

There are nearly a hundred cabins like this.

There is a person with special abilities imprisoned in each cabin.

These are people with special abilities captured from all over the world.

In the past, people with special abilities were left alone.

It was because of Hu Qi’s secret interference.

But it's different now.

When the 'Destiny System' disappeared without warning, the official machinery reacted faster than anyone expected.

These people with special abilities would become a group of unstable factors if they stayed outside.

Therefore, countries hurriedly held meetings.

The high command completed the assessment report in just a few hours.

Classify civilians with special abilities as "potential strategic threats".

The special response department immediately launched "Operation Pure Land".

A combat team was directly formed and equipped with people with internal training abilities.

Start arresting people with special abilities around the world.

The power of the authorities is terrifying.

These people with special abilities have only been around for a short time.

The strongest ones who have been strengthened are only at the level of Taoist masters.

For ordinary people, existence of this level is almost impossible to defeat.

But in front of the official machines of various countries on Cape Star, it is just a bigger rat.

Under the coverage of various thermal weapons, with the assistance of people with special abilities, and based on the characteristics of these people with special abilities, effective plans are modified.

For example, for those with flame abilities, special liquid nitrogen freezing bombs are used to suppress them in a range.

For those with physical abilities, targeted attacks are carried out using armor-piercing bullets and infrasonic weapons.

Plus the official ability users assisting each combat team.

The process went smoothly without much hindrance.

After all, this world has experience in containing xenomorphs.

What's more, these people with special abilities are much more fragile than aliens.

They still have relatives and concerns.

When necessary, relatives or friends can be used to threaten them.

By forcing its weak spot, it will surrender.

Over time, this has also led to a continuous decrease in the number of civilian talents around the world.
