"According to your theory, your whole body can be a weapon, so pulling out this bloody blade is meaningless. **(..)" the blood owl said: "It shows that your so-called evolution is far from being able to do whatever you want. There are still certain characteristics that you cannot change that are human. Obviously, the things inside your skin, whether they are organs or not... anyway, those parts cannot be exposed to the air for a long time. If you could, you would have been He turned into a giant ooze monster, wrapped me up and drowned me alive.”

"Judging from the behavior patterns of those mutated monsters on the ground, you rely on smell and body temperature to capture prey, and the same must be true for distinguishing similar species. This is not the way of an 'advanced life'." The corner of the blood owl's mouth raised. A smile: "You are not an advanced being. You are just a kind of thing that is derived from the genes of various organisms absorbing and devouring each other, inheriting, mutating, and replacing each other... Haha, bastard." His insult actually made La La Herman's expression changed.

"You, the giant beast somewhere in this research institute, and the mutated creatures in this city, you are all the same. Maybe from a biological point of view, you are superior to humans." The blood owl's tone revealed disdain : "But so what? Stratospheric bacteria, arctic fly larvae, penguins, devil medaka, or... aliens, if there is such a thing; I could name dozens of similar things, hum... But, you can Do you say they are 'higher organisms'? Even from a zoological point of view, many of them are also classified as invertebrates; and from a philosophical point of view, the so-called 'higher organisms' in your mouth are based on Standards set based on human thinking. The most ironic thing is that now that you are no longer human and your thoughts are different from humans, you are still subject to human thinking patterns on the issue of whether you are superior."

Rahman stared into the blood owl's eyes. He didn't speak, but the blood owl could feel something unique to humans from him, those negative emotions, or sin.

"Let's face the reality. You are just a mutant who was back-attacked by mutated E-cells. You cannot be said to be superior or inferior." The blood owl tapped his temples twice with his fingers: "Biological evolution The top of the world. It does not necessarily mean obtaining a body that can adapt to any dangerous environment and is almost immortal.

As long as the brain is advanced enough, other deficiencies can be made up for with technology. Even if the life is short, it is wise. Spirits and emotions will be passed on through words, sounds, images, etc. This is the path of human evolution, slow, tortuous, and difficult, ha... but very interesting, isn't it? "

Rahman's eyes and voice were full of murderous intent: "Do you think that with just a few words of yours, you can make me deny my own views, or even deny my existence itself?"

"Just a casual discussion. The opportunity is rare. After all, I am not a healthy human being. I cannot generate my own negative emotions. I can only share and bear the pain of others unconditionally and without choice." The blood owl replied: "But I'm different from you. I don't call myself superior on a biological level because I'm different..." He paused: "I simply classify other people as idiots, trash, trash, etc. However, I still admit that I am a member of the human race. Because of this, now, I will stand on your hostile side. Even if I think there is no point in fighting a guy like you, I will still fight as a human being. Think and come to the conclusion that you must die.”

"Humph..." Rahman sneered: "Maybe you are right. But the 'opinion' itself will not change the reality. If you can't kill me, it's all nonsense. Even if you convince me, you can't change me. The fact that his** is a hundred times more evolved than you!"

Blood Owl is in the process of dialogue. He is gradually approaching the opponent. According to his fighting style, the distance at this time is the most appropriate to deliver the most powerful punch.

"In a battle, it's not that the stronger side will win." The blood owl's arms were covered with black energy at this moment: "It's that the winning side is the strong one." At this moment, he waved his fist , the power is like thunder, the lightning is soaring. 1(1)

Rahman's reaction speed is far behind the blood owl's fists. In fact, among all the people who have fought with the blood owl in the past, no one can compete with him in terms of pure physical ability. In this state, there are only three people with enough reaction speed and ability to parry the blood owl's attack, Javidon Hal, Mirror Face and God Key.

And if others, including the former warden of Tide Prison, Jefferson, dared to keep this distance with the Blood Owl for a sexual encounter, they would probably turn into corpses in two minutes, not even the whole corpse.

Although Rahman had prepared his 'weapons' and had already taken precautions, he was still powerless in the face of this punch. It's like you know that you are being targeted in the head by a sniper at a distance that will never miss. Even if someone tells you that he is about to shoot, or he simply shoots in front of you, you will still die. .

The blood owl's fist did not penetrate Rahman's body, but a violent black energy blasted into his chest. The next second, Rahman's back exploded, with blood, flesh, bones, and... The fragments of internal organs and body fluids were all beaten into powder and pulp, and were dyed black, splattering out from behind him like a jet of oil well.

The power of the sea boiling and the mountains splitting, the scene of bloody storms.

After just one punch, the victory seemed to be decided. But the Blood Owl's opponent will naturally not be defeated easily. Rahman stood still. Viewed from the front, he was unscathed, but viewed from behind, his broken sternum could be seen directly. Even so, he still grinned and showed a terrifying smile. The blood from between his teeth dripped down his chin. He didn't care at all: "It's my turn."

As he was speaking, the blood blade in his hand had fallen and struck the side of the blood owl's neck. However, the blade stopped the moment it touched the blood owl's skin. The blood blade was resisted by the energy on the surface of the blood owl's body. Difficult to cut into flesh.

"What's wrong? It's not cool to have no energy on the blade. Even if your abnormal platelets can coagulate the blood harder than metal, it will be in vain for high-level ability users." The blood owl said: "Still, in your case Can't you take care of other things while repairing your body?"

At this moment, looking from behind Rahman, the flesh and blood inside was being filled with countless maggot-like wriggling substances. The skin after the explosion was also gathering together, and the huge wound was shrinking.

"Even if you want to delay repairing your limbs, you should at least try an attack that can hurt me." The blood owl shook his head with a sneer: "Regardless of strength, speed, combat skills, experience, and ability use, you He is far different from that snake-faced guy. He is simply vulnerable." The blood owl deliberately provoked, but in fact he was not in a hurry to make the next move.

At this time, Rahman had indeed completed the repair work. He squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "As you wish!" before he finished speaking. The blood blade trembled slightly, and a wave of energy clashed with the wave on the blood owl's body.

People with abilities above the ferocious level all have a set of energy expressions developed from their own abilities. In terms of defense, Krause's ability has been transformed into a protective air wall. The Attendant is a repulsive force field, while what Jefferson created is a quantum separation barrier, etc... Even two people with the same type of abilities may have completely different expressions when using energy, and two different types of abilities Or, what reaction will occur when its energy collides is simply unpredictable.

The blood owl really didn't expect that when Rahman's energy became substantial, it would be backfired by the black energy covering his body and used for basic defense. It’s okay if Rahman doesn’t have to. After using it, it feels like it is causing a fire.

"It turns out that this is the ability level obtained by improving the body through e-cells in a short period of time." The blood owl waved his knife with his left hand. As a wisp of black energy drifted away, Rahman's arm holding the bloody blade was cut off from his torso. The speed of this blow still left no room for Rahman to react.

"False power is so ridiculous. For those ability users who rely on training to obtain ferocious strength, if their energy is mellow spirits, then your energy is like cheap saliva. On the surface, it can also kill It can break the alloy. It can be used for defense and offense, but once they collide with each other..." the blood owl laughed and said: "The original shape will be revealed."

A beast-like roar came from Rahman's mouth. His jaw suddenly cracked as if it had been dislocated, the skin on the entire surface of his skull was torn, and his eyeballs were squeezed out of their sockets and drooped outside. His skull deformed from the inside into a huge mouthpart in three seconds. His facial features were already disposable organs, but he opened his bloody mouth and tried to swallow the blood owl's head whole into his mouth and bite off his limbs. neck.

The blood owl snorted coldly, followed Rahman's example, and used one finger to pull horizontally to completely cut off the opponent's neck: "Look at your virtue, who is the lower animal now?"

Rahman's head rolled to the ground, his flesh twitched a few times, and blood flowed out. However, his body was still moving. It was obvious that just cutting off the head would not kill the monster.

The rest of Rahman's body also began to mutate. Red blood gradually oozed from his pores and formed hard thorns on the surface of his body. In the process, he also pounced in the direction of the blood owl, He waved his remaining arm like a mace.

The blood owl easily backed up and dodged: "In the end, it still relies on temperature and smell to attack. Where is your main sensory organ? Is there an olfactory organ that looks like a shower head under your arm?" His expression showed that he had already felt that It's a bit boring and uninteresting: "You can't hear me anyway, so let me send your 'brain', or 'body', where it belongs."

The five fingers of his hands were spread apart to form claws, and his upper body was completely covered in black energy. The black energy was lingering. In the next ten seconds, the blood owl was like Yasha Shura in ghost legends, tearing apart the entire "person" in front of him with both hands. Those bloody thorns couldn't stop him from doing anything.

Rahman's body was like an onion that had been peeled open. The remaining limbs and pieces of flesh were constantly torn off and discarded. Any part that the blood owl came into contact with would be contaminated by black energy and turn into necrotic carrion and lose its activity. .

In the end, when the blood owl cut the opponent down to only his pelvis, two thighs, and half of his abdomen, he finally pulled out something from the blur of flesh and blood. That thing is an oval-shaped piece of meat, which looks like a brain but not a brain, and looks like a heart but not a heart. Under the thin wall on the surface, many beating blood vessels can be seen, and most of them seem to be blood vessels inside the wall.

"Compared to that ball of meat that can only 'eat', how advanced are you?" The blood owl said to himself, looking at the "advanced life" accidentally created by humans in his hand.

Unexpectedly, a lot of flesh sprouts protruded from the inside of the thing at this moment, and the ends were very sharp, trying to pierce the blood owl's skin and enter his body.

"Hmph... At least this kind of dying struggle can be seen in both intelligent creatures and instinctive creatures." The blood owl held the "pseudo-brain" tightly in the palm of his hand until it turned from the inside out. When it was completely corrupted into black and stopped moving at all. Then he added more force and crushed it.

In the end, there was nothing left, just dry and firewood residue. It was like ashes and sand scattered on the ground after the paper was burned out.

The blood owl clapped his palms and dusted them off. It seemed like he had won easily, but in fact, every punch he had just made and every sword strike he had made. Even tearing the other person's neck with your fingers consumes a lot of energy.

The battle will end quickly, not because the opponent is weak, but because the blood owl is consciously controlling the situation. At first, he punched with all his energy to test Rahman's reaction speed; then he deliberately gave the opponent a chance to attack to calculate Rahman's recovery speed and absolute strength; then, he confirmed those The flesh and blood corroded by one's own "sin" energy cannot be regenerated after leaving the main body; then the final step. It is to find the e-cell body in Rahman's body. To be completely destroyed.

On the surface, there is constant taunting and smooth fighting, but behind every step there is a purpose and a way out. Of course, the reaction after the energy confrontation between the two was indeed beyond the blood owl's expectations. In fact, this is the result of countless battles and long-term practice between Blood Owl and Divine Key. This advantage was not reflected when faced with Mirror Face's unparalleled "chaos" ability. But against the last enemy who was poor at using energy, the reaction just now would occur.

He turned away. He stretched his neck and walked into the corridor leading to the top. Now. The real problem rears its ugly head again. Even if the consumption of energy and physical strength is not considered, how can we eliminate the other e-cell variant, that is, the purely instinctive creature? That is a monster that can evolve independently for each piece of meat. There is no weakness similar to the brain. When using "corruption" to deal with it, you have to consider the size of the opponent; also, if a piece of meat the size of a spoon slips through the net, Maybe this monster will make a comeback.

Suddenly, the blood owl's body froze, his consciousness was still very clear, and the time around him was obviously passing by, but everything seemed to have stopped functioning at this moment, and all "power" was blocked at this moment. , even the blood in the blood vessels has solidified and generally no longer flows.

"What is this?" Blood Owl thought in his heart: "No...who is this?"

… …

About two minutes ago, outside the city.

Gambling Snake found a gas station on the interstate highway outside the blockade. There had obviously been a firefight of a certain scale nearby. The entrance of the gas station and the front of the building were blown up. On the roadside ten meters away from the gas station, there was a giant semicircular iron bracket lying upside down. Gambler originally suspected that it was some kind of scrapped military equipment, but after observing it for a while, he realized that it was actually the one at the entrance of the gas station. The billboard, made in the shape of a wheel, had been blown up in half, presumably falling from a high place.

Judging from the situation, this place should be relatively safe, with no ambush. Although the gas station is dilapidated and a large area of the doorway is burnt, you can still find a door with a relatively complete shape after walking a few steps inside.

So Gambling Snake used his ability and successfully established a connection with a door he had touched before leaving the city. When he opened the door, Zuo Dao, Feng Yan and Selz were standing outside the door, but the scene on the other side of the door was somewhere in the city.

"It's pretty fast." Zuo Dao said, and was the first to pass through. As soon as he walked out of the door, he looked around with a sly look.

Fengxuan turned sideways and motioned for Seltz to go first. He was not naive enough to completely trust this guy whom he had just met. As an intelligence officer who travels all year round, Fengxuan often works alone, deep behind enemy lines, and has to keep one eye open when sleeping, so he is naturally very thoughtful and sophisticated in his dealings. After all, Seltz is a paper-level ability user, so let him go last. If he is waiting for an opportunity to escape, he suddenly bursts out, closes the door, and kicks the door panel into pieces. The connection established by the snake will disappear. At that time, will the three of them go back to the city and fish Seltz out again

When Selz saw this, he didn't say anything. He glanced at Fengxuan and passed through the door.

Seeing that the other party had reached the gambling snake side, Fengxuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to step out of the door when his body suddenly became unable to move.

Seeing him stop suddenly, Zuo Dao stepped forward and said, "What's wrong?"

"Don't come over!" Fengxuan said immediately: "Don't go through this door, and don't try to reach in and pull me out."

Gambler and Zuo Dao both noticed something strange and almost said in unison: "What's the situation?"

… …

At the same time, in the sky over Atlantic City, a man in his mid-thirties with a beggar-like hairstyle floated there. He was wearing a long black windbreaker and pajamas underneath. He muttered: "It's too troublesome. Sure enough, things like business trips are troublesome. What kind of pollution should we deal with... Human beings can't be destroyed so easily... How good it is to curl up in bed and play games... "

At this moment, it was not only Blood Owl that was sealed, but everything within Atlantic City. Even the waves on the coast stopped, as if they were frozen.

The trees are still and the wind is still, all sounds are silent, day and night are not differentiated, and the four seasons are gone.

There is only one possibility for the appearance of this scene, which heralds the arrival of someone from the Ten Heavenly Guards. (To be continued...)
