Plague Doctor

It's like being scorched by the tyrannical sun, like being soaked in the mind by poisonous snake venom, like being replaced by vicious sewage for blood, like being swallowed up by the dark abyss... everything is decaying, but also transformed, reborn... life Writhing in the dark, walking on cliffs...

Suddenly, the light returned to Xu Yanjing's eyes, but there was definitely something different about these eyes, as if they could penetrate the... dimensions they were looking at.

The sharp pain as if his abdominal organs had been completely ruptured just now has disappeared. It has not only been repaired, but also strengthened. The same is true for the skin, flesh and bones of the whole body. He is not used to the new feeling for the time being, and the feeling that he has never experienced before. The feeling of strength...

He was still lying on the floor, but the change was so definite.

The best time for his physical fitness must have been during his junior high school and high school years. The moves he could make at that time were astonishing even when he thought about it when he was older. He can casually do pull-ups on the horizontal bar in the school playground for a while, he can do somersaults, he can jump very far, and he can run very fast; and when he competes with others on the basketball court, he doesn't feel anything even if he falls to the ground. Pain, even injuries afterward, can often be cured by just sleeping...

Xu Yanjing has always believed that those were the peak years of his body. After high school, his body continued to decline, and even worse after graduating from college and starting to work. Not to mention pull-ups and somersaults, he could still dodge even if he bent down to pick up something. , and it's definitely not just a lack of exercise.

That's because the body is withering, becoming older and weaker, and all aspects of energy are gone forever. This is the case for everyone...

But now, suddenly, he felt a hundred times better than the impression he had left in middle school.

With a thought in his mind, Xu Yanjing turned over and immediately got up from the floor. With such ease, Peiran's strength was about to explode from the muscles around his body. He looked down at his arms. The biceps on both arms were bulging, a size he had never had before.

"Congratulations." Yao Xuchang over there stopped and looked over, "You have successfully evolved, and it seems... you are a snake man."

"Snake man?" Xu Yanjing murmured, thinking of the snake-headed alien in the video he just watched, like the flat head of a cobra... He quickly walked to the side of the living room and looked at a mirror hanging on the wall. Seeing myself, my body has obviously become stronger, and I seem to be a few centimeters taller, and the clothes on my body are tight because of it.

He raised his hand and touched his neck and head. They were not completely mutated, but he also found signs of the snake man: his tongue had turned into a snake letter.

In just a few short minutes, the tongue has undergone such a big change. Some parts have shrunk, and some parts have grown, turning into a long snake tongue with a scarlet color. Its characteristics are yet to be discovered by him. Discover…

"Snake people are closest to the power we are in contact with, so they are easier to become stronger. They usually have a higher status in the Life Will Alliance."

Yao Xuchang said this and came closer. His tongue, which he had barely exposed before speaking, was now stretched out and rolled quickly. It was also the tongue of a snake man. Yao Xuchang added: "Among our group of evolvers, the number of snake-men is the smallest. Once we become snake-men, we are stronger than others."

Snake man, snake man... Xu Yanjing looked at himself in the mirror and was silent for a moment.

The disgust and uneasiness I felt when watching the video have now disappeared. What's gone is the weird feeling. When he looked at the Snake Nobuko, he just looked at the most common and normal things, as they should be... but when he recalled the human tongue in the past, he actually felt disgusted.

It seemed that it was a tumor oozing pus, and it was really not something worth remembering...

"Now, I am also a stranger." Xu Yanjing thought to himself, "a new human being."

"How is it?" Yao Xuchang smiled slightly, "I understand you should be grateful to me."

The restlessness surged in Xu Yanjing's heart again, and he glanced at the guy next to him. He still wanted to beat him up, or in other words, his desire was even greater, and he wanted to cut off his flesh piece by piece...

It's just that the perception that has become clearer tells of the danger. The opponent is still stronger than himself. If he fights with him now, there will definitely be no good results.

"If we can all survive and live better, I want to thank you." Xu Yanjing said, "Is this the problem?"

As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards the kitchen. In fact, ever since he regained consciousness, he had been enveloped in intense hunger, and it was getting stronger every time he regained consciousness. He tried to feel hungry, but he had never felt so hungry. Even if an elephant or a whale were placed in front of him, he could eat them.

After opening the freezer, he hurriedly took out some leftovers and ate them all, almost even the plate. Then there are snacks, fruits, canned food, eggs, cereals... whether they are raw or cooked, even egg shells, banana peels, everything that can be eaten is stuffed into the stomach.

Xu Yanjing kept swallowing his stuffed esophagus, but there was a pleasant feeling of growth all over his body, which urged him to continue eating.

The muscles are still growing, so are the bones, and the transformation of the head is still going on... He can feel all this, and wants more, more...

"The energy of these foods is limited." Yao Xuchang's tone was quite disdainful, "It can satisfy your hunger at first, but you will soon know that this way can no longer satisfy you, and it cannot be released any more. Your life instinct.”

"Then what's going to happen next?" While Xu Yanjing continued to swallow a few bags of dry goods, his heart suddenly tightened. Whether it was because of his undying conscience or the influence of the beasts, he couldn't help asking: "Do you want to eat it?" person……"

"Cannibalism?" Yao Xuchang sneered, "Who do you think we are? Even ghouls are not interested. What they like to eat is corpses."

Xu Yanjing breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt uneasy in his heart. If he didn't eat people, he would kill people...

At this time, the door was suddenly knocked from outside, and a serious voice came in: "Mr. Xu, we are members of the patrol team of the Tianji Bureau. We heard the cry of a patient with abnormal brain disorder syndrome who was having a delirium here. , come and see what's going on, please open the door immediately. If you are the one who gets sick, we will take you to the treatment point for treatment."

"It's coming." Yao Xuchang said.

Xu Yanjing suddenly felt anxious, and was also surprised by the other party's calmness, "If you don't want to be like the stranger who was shot, you'd better do something."

"Look at how anxious you are. In a place like this, we can come and leave whenever we want."

At the same time, the banging on the door became louder, and the Tianji personnel outside shouted: "Mr. Xu, be careful, we will forcefully break in in five seconds. We are authorized to use maximum force, and any resistance will be at your own risk."

The Tianji personnel began to count down, and Xu Yanjing saw Yao Xuchang take out a round badge-like object from his arms, which was as big as a palm and covered with strange and magnificent patterns carved on it. Yao Xuchang pressed his finger on the badge. Suddenly, the surrounding space was shaken, and countless ripples flowed.

"This..." Xu Yanjing asked in surprise. He felt that his surroundings were spinning and twisting, but he could still stand firm.

"This is just a very common space folding technology device." Yao Xuchang said, "In a foreign city, it is just a gadget in a grocery store."

Space folding technology? Xu Yanjing was speechless. This is just a science fiction idea for the technology of human civilization...

However, at this moment, the dimensions of this space are changing, and everything becomes white, with endless indescribable light and shadow lingering in it.

Xu Yanjing's heart suddenly skipped a beat. At a certain moment, he vaguely saw the door being opened by Tianji personnel. A group of personnel rushed in with guns. They looked around steadily and searched the surroundings, but found nothing. In the kitchen, you can only find some scattered tableware and packaging bags.

When he blinked, these scenes were no longer visible, and the dazzling light around him began to soften again after a burst of intensity.

Various messy sounds came to my ears, and the scene gradually became clear again. While it was still blurry, there seemed to be a lot of steel, giant steel... and a black substance attached to the steel, like some kind of The skin and flesh of the giant beast... are not dead, but alive, even the steel is alive...

Full of vitality, abundant strength, and infinite passion, it is life that is constantly flowing, real life...

When the vision in his eyes was completely restored, Xu Yanjing saw the scene in front of him clearly and felt a little inexplicable excitement.

"Welcome to this outpost city of the Will of Life Alliance, 'Mighty City'." Yao Xuchang walked forward with the hamster cage in his hand, "Let's go, there are many, many outpost cities like this, and I heard that there are There are bigger cities, but I can only come here for the time being."
