"Let's go." McDonald's calm but majestic voice sounded in Lai's mind.
"Yes." Rai manipulated Adrienne's body to stand up. This was the second time he had borrowed Adrienne's body, and she was able to control it with ease. "She" patted the dust on her skirt, and walked back to "Diavolo" as if nothing had happened. He took Macdonald and sat in the driving seat of the tank.
Diavolo's tracks turned slowly, making a rough and domineering sound, and he passed through the Fearless Barrier 10 minutes later without any abnormalities being detected by the guards.
The scenery in the wilderness is always the same, which can make people forget the passage of time. The sky gradually dimmed, and the lavender and dark yellow sunset replaced the blue sky. Diavolo headed west, crossing thousands of kilometers of wilderness, and approached a low-level security zone aggressively before nightfall. It ignored the obstruction of the iron door. As the tracks turned, the hard front armor of the tank directly cracked the tall iron door, tearing the iron door in half and crushing it under the tracks.
Diavolo's scarlet paint and exaggerated shape are very domineering. In the eyes of the people of the wilderness who have never seen a war tank, it means absolutely unmatched terror. Terror is the most effective way to spread fear, and for Lai, it is also the easiest way to "communicate." The sentries in the safe zone watched helplessly as Diavolo trampled on the door of the safe zone. They held the guns in their hands. No one stepped forward to stop him, and they all retreated.
Diavolo drove all the way to the center of the safe zone and stopped in a square that was covered with dust and the pavement was warped and sunken. It had not been repaired for a long time. The dim sky, dark building shadows, and street lights that ran out of power weaved together to form a picture of a dark night falling. The scarlet Diavolo stopped, making it particularly eerie against the backdrop of the dark night.
In the far distance of the square, a well-dressed man rushed towards this side nervously, followed by many younger brothers. He seemed to be the leader of this low-level security zone.
Len opened the roof of the cab, grabbed the edge of the roof with both hands and jumped up. MacDonald, who was in his invisible state, took this opportunity to quietly leap off Len's shoulder and sink into the shadowed corner of the building.
Immediately, Rai jumped on top of Diavolo, and Darhk and Cheng Zhao opened the top cover and stuck their heads out.
"We'll spend the night in this safe zone. You guys stay in your seats and wait for me to come back." Lai said in Adrianna's tone, and then faced the leader of the safe zone head-on.
A minute later, Adriana returned to Dark and Cheng Zhao. Her emerald eyes were as deep and bright as ever. Her tone was normal, asking Dark and Cheng Zhao to follow her. On the other side, the leader of the safe zone led a group of his men in the opposite direction. The leader looked like he was shaken and frightened after meeting a big shot, and his walking posture was also affected. However, there was a secret flash of lightning deep in his eyes.
From this moment on, Macdonald and Lay are truly out of human hands. MacDonald has the ability to grow quickly, and is protected by extraordinary third-level mutant creatures like Lai. Its territory is a wilderness full of dangers; in the wilderness, if humans want to defeat MacDonald, they will Capturing it back has become a wishful thinking.
It can be said that this is a complete victory for Macdonald and Rai, while humanity, led by the Supreme Court, has become the losing party.
... ...
On the evening of the second day after the first snow fell in Beijing, the first snow of the year in Chang'an District finally left the clouds and slowly fell to the top of a bare poplar tree under the dark night and silvery moonlight.
The first snowflakes began to bloom, and small snowflakes as tiny as ice crystals fell to the ground. A biting cold wind roared from the northeast of Chang'an District, changing the direction and speed of the falling snowflakes along the way; the cold wind enveloped the A large group of spiraling snowflakes rushed towards the end of the night, and finally slapped on the glass window of the medical clinic.
The windows were closed tightly, and despite the heavy wind and snow outside, the room was still warm with the heating on. Wu Qi was sitting on the head of the bed, putting his hands on his legs through the quilt, closing his eyes and meditating.
Wang Yan was the only one in the room, and everyone else went out to watch the snow. Guo Baibo has never seen heavy snow in the wilderness, and this snow is the first snow in Chang'an District.
"Wu Qi, why don't you go out and take a look? It's the first snow today." Wang Yan put her right arm on the window and looked at the rapidly falling snowflakes outside the window. The snow fell quickly, and soon outside the medical center, A thin layer of snow had accumulated on the tops of the shrubs.
Wu Qi opened and closed his eyes and said softly: "I see snow every year."
In Wu Qi's mind as a child, snow represented the arrival of cold winter, a large number of prey animals huddled in their nests, and edible plants had completely withered away. Apart from trying to survive another season of death, it had no special meaning.
"Yes, after all, you grew up in the wilderness." Wang Yan agreed. When she was accompanying Wu Qi these days, she heard Wu Qi mention his experiences before coming to the G011 base.
Wang Yan was still looking out the window, her eyes not focused on any particular point.
In a quiet atmosphere, Wu Qi silently mobilized the muscles somewhere in his body, sensing the recovery of muscle damage and the maximum level of force exerted.
His injuries have almost recovered to 80%, and his strength has recovered to about 50%. A few days ago, he had just completed surgery to remove most of his back muscles and was dying.
When the chief surgeon reviewed Wu Qi's physical recovery, he directly asked him whether he was a genetically enhanced person with "four-level cell activity enhancement"; and a few months ago, when Wu Qi had not joined the Black Gun mercenary group, Black Gun's Team doctor Yang Dongchen determined that Wu Qi should have "secondary cell activity enhancement."
Wu Qi knew the condition of his body best. He simulated a scene in his brain: every time he was seriously injured, his body completed an exercise to accelerate the regeneration of cell tissue. The more times he practiced, the more proficient his body became at repairing the injury. Also faster.
This time he was attacked by a mysterious giant beast ambushing at the border. After surviving another disaster, his cell activity seemed to have increased again.
Wu Qi vaguely remembered that he once again crossed the critical line while being chased by the mysterious giant beast. His strength and speed simultaneously hit an unprecedented level, which was equivalent to the bottleneck of the second-level monster power and second-level super-speed movement. .
Wu Qi asked himself whether this meant that his physical abilities were approaching the limit of the second-level body-enhancing superpower. It stands to reason that he is an evolved human, and his body is stronger than that of pure humans. It is natural that he can be comparable to genetically enhanced people, but he should not exceed the level of body-enhanced superpowers; however, the fact is that he has surpassed it.
The more truth you learn, the more questions you will have. This was the case for Wu Qi. If he had never heard Xu Haoqing's explanation about "evolving human beings", he would naturally not have questions like this.
Now, all Wu Qi's questions point to one ultimate question: whether he can follow this trend and evolve to a level comparable to a third-order pioneer.
