The offspring of monsters and humans.
That monster
Xu Xin was so shocked by the information that he was speechless for a long time.
Mainly I think of the scene where monsters and humans combine...
This is simply an epic disaster movie!
Just thinking about it can make one crazy and sick.
"No wonder..." Xu Xin muttered to himself, "No wonder the monster's body structure is somewhat similar to that of humans."
It has human-like limbs, walks upright on two legs similar to humans, and even has flexible fingers similar to humans.
It turns out that it’s because…
"That's right." Xu Ying seemed a little uneasy, looking out the window from time to time, "Those are the human characteristics on it, because its mother is a real human, a..."
A trace of hatred flashed in Xu Ying's eyes: "He was one of those who were captured."
"... Is it really the offspring of a monster and a human?" Xu Xin was really shocked.
You know, there is reproductive isolation between different species, and it is basically impossible for them to give birth to offspring.
Even if they give birth to offspring, they will not be able to reproduce. But that requires the genetic difference between the two species to be very small.
For example, a lion and a tiger can produce a liger.
For example, a horse and a donkey can produce a mule.
Can…
The gap between alien creatures and Earth creatures is absolutely huge!
You know, as creatures on Earth, humans and insects, which are extremely different, have a genetic similarity of up to 60%.
There is no way that the genetic similarity between alien creatures and humans can be so high!
How could two creatures from two different planets that have nothing to do with each other give birth to offspring
He originally thought that this combination of monster and human should be the product of genetic combination and modification.
"... I also doubt this." Xu Ying sighed.
"But... the mother of the monster returned to us after giving birth to the monster. She was almost insane at the time, but we learned from her... at least she had experienced everything she should have experienced, and she was indeed the one who gave birth to the monster. As for whether she was subjected to any experiments during this period... we don't know."
"This is simply..." Xu Xin took a deep breath.
He could not imagine the despair that woman was going through.
You know, that monster makes him feel sick just by looking at it...
etc…
"What does a normal monster look like?" Xu Xin asked immediately.
Since that monster is a hybrid, it must look different from a normal monster, right
"Normal monsters... look almost nothing like humans."
Xu Ying looked out the window again, as if she was worried that a monster would suddenly appear outside and attack her.
"It's hard for me to describe what they look like. Um... they are monsters with many limbs, each of which is as flexible as a human's hands. They have eyes all over their bodies that are completely different from those of humans, and their heads have mouths for eating... or mouthparts?"
Xu Ying thought about it, and finally gave up explaining. She shook her head and said, "I can't explain it. You'll know when you see it yourself in the future."
This is really outrageous, is it really Cthulhu...
"But, to be honest, those monsters do look scary to me, but from the perspective of physical disgust... this monster this time looks disgusting!"
"This time it's more disgusting? Why?"
"Because they are monsters, isn't it normal for monsters to look scary?" Xu Ying gestured with her hands, "But this monster has some similarities with humans in appearance. It can really evoke fear in humans... For example, those eyes, you saw them, they are human eyes!"
Human eyes
Xu Xin's eyes widened slightly.
really.
That monster's body was indeed covered with human eyes!
If you look at just one eye, it's the shape and size of the human eye, the eyeball and pupil of the human eye!
"Although other monsters also have eyes all over their bodies, they are their own eyes, which are very different from human eyes. You can't tell they are eyes unless you look closely, so even if they are all over their bodies, they won't make people feel disgusted. But this monster! This monster!"
Xu Ying rolled her throat and covered her mouth. After two seconds, she showed a disgusted and disgusted expression and said, "That monster has human eyes all over its body. When I first saw that monster, I was almost scared to tears! It's so disgusting!!"
This... is indeed very uncomfortable.
If the monster was covered with fly eyes, its horror and disgust would probably be reduced to a lower level.
After all, it's a monster, so it's normal for it to have some weird things on its body.
And precisely because it has human characteristics, these familiar characteristics are located in incorrect and completely unfamiliar positions, which makes people feel doubly scared.
For example, when a person's eyes are where his mouth should be, his mouth is where his nose should be, and his nose is on his forehead, is such a face scary
Of course it's terrifying.
Much scarier than a tiger.
Although there is nothing wrong with each of the facial features taken individually, the overall appearance makes it look like an extremely terrifying monster.
It's like seeing a ghost!
And now Xu Xin finally understood that the monster actually gave him this feeling.
The eyes are human eyes, but there are such eyes all over the body. They are constantly blinking and the perspective changes with the line of sight.
Its arms are also significantly longer than its legs, giving people the feeling that…
The arms are where the legs are, and the legs... are where the arms are.
Using the elements that humans are most familiar with, they pieced together a messy monster.
This is the monster!
"Besides, that guy had an extremely disgusting attitude towards humans for a while! Many of us died at his hands."
When Xu Ying thought back to what happened, a somewhat annoyed expression appeared on her face.
"That guy really caused us a lot of trouble. If it weren't for the fact that the monsters still needed us and were not allowed to attack us, I'm afraid it would have killed us all..."
Xu Xin's eyes moved: "But now, it seems to be raising humans? It has also learned human language and communicated with humans."
"I don't understand this." Xu Ying's expression was also confused. "I don't know what that monster was thinking. Its attitude towards us changed drastically several times."
"But when time and space collapsed, it hasn't appeared in front of us for at least ten years. To be honest, I had even forgotten about it before today."
Then, Xu Ying grabbed Xu Xin's arm again and looked at him solemnly: "However, no matter what, it is a very dangerous monster, and from my experience, it is very moody. Don't provoke it before you have the ability!
Brother, you should not leave the Crystal City before the World Tree grows up. Also, tell your companions not to leave the city recently.
You can share anything about monsters, but don’t tell anyone else about the underground base. Wait until the world tree grows up!
I will come back after the World Tree grows up. By then, with the protection of the World Tree, your territory should be stable, and I can take you back and forth to the base in the underground world!"
"Are you going back?" Xu Xin grabbed her hand that was holding his arm, "Are you leaving now?"
"Well, my sister-in-law is still waiting for me downstairs, and..." Xu Ying said tiredly, "I've also told you the situation downstairs. It's very complicated. I can't leave for too long."
Just after leaving for a short while, something happened around the villa.
She was afraid that Xu Xin would worry, so she didn't dare say this.
"Okay then... Let me ask you one last question. This World Tree Seed was left behind by you, right? And what exactly is this tree house we live in?" Xu Xin asked.
Hearing Xu Xin's question, Xu Ying's expression became a little embarrassed: "Actually, I'm also confused now."
"... Tree house seeds are indeed something we researched, but at the time we only gave them to those people our organization sent to the future, about 20,000 people, definitely not as many as now, with a batch of survivors numbering over a million, and all of them had tree house seeds..."
"Is that so..." Xu Xin touched his chin.
"As for the World Tree Seed, this is our most successful seed. It has complex abilities, so I won't say much." Xu Ying glanced out the window again, then said, "For these things, you should wait until the World Tree grows up, and then you can experience them yourself."
"As for why there are so many world trees for the monsters on the other hemisphere... just like the tree house seeds, I have no idea. Well, I'll stop here, brother, I have to go back!"
As she said that, she shook off Xu Xin's hand and stepped forward.
A purple-black vortex suddenly formed under her feet, and then she blinked at Xu Xin: "I'm leaving!"
"you… "
She fell into the whirlpool.
The vortex disappeared the moment she disappeared, leaving only the textured wooden floor.
Xu Xin sighed helplessly.
Yingying she... but she really came and went like a shadow and the wind.
However, this meeting really proved many of his guesses and made him understand too many things.
He raised his hand and glanced at the time.
It's already six o'clock in the morning.
They should all be awake by now, right
Then... it's time to hold an internal meeting among explorers.
…
"Why hasn't Yingying come back yet..." Li Wenxi muttered to herself as she leaned against the window, looking at the hustle and bustle of the city.
This period is indeed a difficult one.
She didn't know if there was any danger outside, so she didn't dare go out and could only wait boringly in the villa.
"This villa is really clean. There's not even a book in it." She counted the cars on the elevated road at the foot of the mountain out of boredom. "Three hundred and seventy-eight... three hundred and seventy-nine... There are quite a few cars here."
At this moment, a purple-black light appeared behind her.
She immediately looked back and saw Xu Ying standing behind her.
"Sister-in-law! Are you okay?" Xu Ying rushed over as soon as she came out, holding Li Wenxi's shoulders with both hands, looking her up and down, "Are you okay?"
"Ah? No...no." Li Wenxi was startled by Xu Ying's sudden excitement. "But, there seems to be someone outside this villa..."
"I know that, so I rushed back." Xu Ying looked out the window and gritted her teeth, "Fortunately you didn't go out."
"What do you mean?" Li Wenxi's heart skipped a beat.
"Outside... there's more than one guy, and they're all waiting outside." Xu Ying suddenly opened the window and shouted outside, "Hey! You guys are such cowards! Come out? Why are you all acting like turtles when I come back?"
But the only response she got was the slight sound of wind outside.
"Hmph." She snorted and slammed the window shut. "What a bunch of cowards."
Li Wenxi felt a little uneasy after hearing her words.
"More than one person?" She swallowed, her eyes widening. "You mean, I was just surrounded by a group of people with bad intentions?"
Thinking of the eyes that appeared from the gap in the curtains, and thinking of the many people like that out there...
She suddenly felt scared.
fine!
Fortunately, she didn't dare to open the window just now!
"I thought it was just one person at first." Xu Ying pulled Li Wenxi to the bedside and sat down. "And that person left after a while, so I didn't think the situation was that urgent at the time, but later..."
"Did many more people come later?" Li Wenxi asked, staring into her eyes.
"Yeah." Xu Ying nodded. "I can sense the space around this area no matter where I am. Just a few minutes ago, I noticed that there were suddenly... seven people here, and they all gathered outside the window of your bedroom. I hurried back. Fortunately, you didn't open the window!"
A few minutes ago
Outside the bedroom window
"I... I've been looking out the window, and there's no one outside..." Li Wenxi sounded a little unconfident.
"Well, they are all in places you can't see." Xu Ying glanced out the window and sneered, "Do you think you are Spider-Man or a gecko? They are all hanging on the wall."
"Oh my god... It's really like this!" Li Wenxi looked towards the window, then quickly looked away, "It's really like what I imagined..."
"When I came back just now, I didn't come in directly, but teleported outside."
Xu Ying pointed out the window, bit her nails, and said in distress, "Those guys seem to know my ability. I came back very quickly and was very careful not to make any noise, but I still saw their appearance. I only saw two shadows. This group of people ran really fast!"
"So, these people are... the running dogs you mentioned before?" Li Wenxi asked after calming down.
"Well, it should be him. Even if he is not, he must be trained by those lackeys." Xu Ying rubbed her brows, very distressed, "It's annoying, really annoying! Now, doesn't it mean that no one can be trusted?"
Li Wenxi was also a little tired and said: "Yes, since they have been planning for so many years, maybe there are spies everywhere."
Can't anyone believe...
"Well... I think Wei Shishi should be trustworthy, right?" Xu Ying thought for a moment and said, "She has always been unkind to me. If she is also one of the running dogs, then she should try every means to get close to me, right?"
"I don't think there's anything wrong with her either. But..."
Li Wenxi hesitated for a moment and said, "That Wei Bai might have some problems."
Xu Ying pursed her lips: "I must ask Wei Shishi why she is so hostile to me, and about her parents, and Wei Bo..."
"She should know a lot of things that we don't know! We must let her speak out!"
