"Captain Zhang didn't say anything. He just met us siblings during the operation. We begged him to show us a clear path." Lin Zihan said, slowly lowering his head and looking elsewhere.
The moment he entered here, Lin Zihan looked around him. The strength of the four gatekeepers around him was not weak, comparable to that of a king. If he really took action, he might not have an absolute chance of winning. .
"Here, is..." The person who brought Lin Zihan in suddenly stopped mid-sentence, and then pointed at Lin Zihan with his finger.
As he circled the dungeon with his right hand, the person who brought Lin Zihan in cheered loudly: "A paradise for mutants, a kingdom for the fallen."
Looking at the man who brought him in, he shouted crazily, as if he had just taken drugs and was as excited and crazy as possible. Lin Zihan's heart dropped, but the four people around him seemed to be respectful to the person in front of him, and he was not aware of the strength of the person in front of him.
"You look unhappy." The man looked at Lin Zihan's lowered head, leaned forward, and put his arm around Lin Zihan's shoulders. "Brother, I can feel that the mutant virus you are infected with is very strong. The moment your eyes turned red, I knew you were not an ordinary mutant and what kind of virus you were infected with."
Lin Zihan couldn't refuse the man who came over to hook up with him. His brain was thinking rapidly, trying to think of a suitable excuse for himself.
"Don't want to say it?" Seeing that Lin Zihan remained silent, Carlo, the guard captain of this dungeon, said displeasedly. The corners of his eyes were filled with hostility towards Lin Zihan. He held the hand behind Lin Zihan's back and waved it gently. .
"I accidentally became infected with a virus from the blood of a dragon-like ferocious beast, and I became like this." Lin Zihan explained, maybe this can explain the scales that just appeared on the back of his hand.
"As someone who has been here, I envy you very much." Carlo's stern face relaxed and he waved his hand to signal the people behind Lin Zihan to disperse.
Because the Hs virus itself has extremely high variability, after encountering wild beasts and causing ferocious beasts to mutate, the Hs virus itself will also mutate accordingly. In the past, preparations made by extracting viruses from ferocious beasts caused mutations. The abilities of the mutators are also different.
Nowadays, when we occasionally see mutants in society, they are all mutations caused by some messy Hs virus. The infected people usually only show changes in human characteristics, such as bulging muscles, increased strength, and bad tempers...
Mutants like Lin Zihan, who can be infected with the Hs virus in ferocious beasts, are naturally valued as a cherished species in the circle where mutants still exist. This is why, at first, Carlo The reason why he decided to bring Lin Zihan in.
"There are all mutants here, just relax and don't have to pretend anymore." Carlo shouted excitedly. There are not only mutant warriors living here, but also some mutants, and He had no fighting ability and hid in this dungeon for fear of being discovered.
"I see there are some children here? Are we hiring child labor?" Lin Zihan looked at a little boy in the corner, huddled together, with a pair of black pupils, and in his ignorant eyes, it could be seen that he didn't like it here.
"Brother, you also know that if we mutants have descendants, the probability of inheritance is extremely high. These are their orphans. We were afraid that they would be used as experimental subjects above, so we brought them back." Carlo explained. Also noticed the little boy in the corner.
The child's parents had both become mutants in the last mutant incident. Worried that something might happen to the little boy, Carlo brought him back.
"His parents were both mutants who died in the last mutation operation. I happened to see him when I evacuated, so I brought him back. Fortunately, there are no signs of mutation yet." Carlo added, he The reason why I told Lin Zihan without reservation was to see Lin Zihan's reaction.
"That incident in Nandu City was not an accident, but your handiwork?" Lin Zihan looked at Carlo and asked.
"Yes, in fact, in this human society, there are still many people infected by the virus. What we used to do was to gather the mutants, and then when we were strong enough, we could resist the injustice brought to us by this society." Carlo spoke righteously, as if he was the righteous one.
Don't try to persuade others to do good unless they have suffered. Lin Zihan's understanding of mutants was limited to some information and documents. Other than that, Lin Zihan's understanding of mutants was very limited.
"..." Lin Zihan looked at Carlo in astonishment. At first, Lin Zihan felt an aura of doing evil in Carlo, but now Lin Zihan suddenly felt that Carlo was by no means a heinous person. At least he saved the life of Carlo. A little boy was born, at least it seems to be saved now.
"Why don't you speak?" Carlo looked at Lin Zihan who was silent, and his eyes didn't seem to show the emotion he expected.
"Why do we carry out those dangerous activities? Although we are not accepted now, no one will hunt us down, isn't it good?" Lin Zihan didn't know whether he really regarded himself as a mutant or recalled himself The days when I was being hunted.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Carlo looked at Lin Zihan with confusion in his eyes. "What a glorious existence we were once, and we were regarded as the saviors of mankind. However, because of the mutation storm, the second catastrophe was caused. Are we, the mutants, going to be eliminated?"
"Over the years, we mutants have been ostracized, killed, looked down upon, and treated as monsters like ferocious beasts by others. What have we done wrong? We have to face this from birth!"
Seeing Carlo's sudden irrational roar, Lin Zihan became even more confused and stood there at a loss.
"But..." Lu Xin was dissatisfied with Carlo's words and wanted to argue, but Lin Zihan stopped her.
"But at least we are still alive now. They killed us because they were afraid of us, and why should we involve innocent people in it." Lin Zihan stood in front of Lu Xin and faced Carlo's red eyes.
"When an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent. The scientists who created the preparation and the people protected by the mutants are now scolding the mutants. Why do these people have such a right?" Carlo's hysterical voice caused a stir. attracted the attention of those around him.
"You are really kind. You repay kindness with evil, but why repay kindness with kindness!" Carloder's voice was so loud that Lin Zihan's ears were pierced and his eardrums hurt.
"But I..." Lin Zihan looked at the furious Carlo and said in an almost pleading tone, "But even if we take revenge, what will we get in return? What can we change if we retaliate against injustice?"
At this moment, Lin Zihan recalled the subrace people living in the poisonous fog area. The poisonous fog area was also full of dangers, but the subrace people lived freely in the poisonous fog area, adhering to the dragon secrets they believed in. In addition to their hatred of humans, , and has no intention of starting another war with humans.
"Why? The Enhancers and Controllers are all in the limelight. We mutants are the organization that turned the tide in the catastrophe. But now, just because of the emergence of excessively mutated mutants, we are regarded as monsters. , treat it as a danger and be aware of it!" Carlo shouted loudly. He was completely angered by Lin Zihan. There is a secret buried in the heart of every mutant. He didn't know why Lin Zihan could be so indifferent. to say this.
"If you are here to make us give up revenge, then you can leave." Carlo shouted loudly, "Because mutants are not cowards. We must pay back all the injustices we have suffered."
Looking at Lin Zihan and Lu Xin, Carlo was now completely blinded by anger. There was a crowd of mutants watching around him, some of whom were still lingering on the edge of mutation, their eyes struggling crazily with bloodshot eyes.
"Let this matter end here!" Carlo suppressed the anger in his heart and did not take action against Lin Zihan. He punched the wall with his clenched fist, leaving a mark on the wall made of iron plates. Made a fist seal.
"It's me..." Lin Zihan looked at Carlo and felt a little distressed. He had just killed a mutant, and now he began to sympathize with the mutant. Lin Zihan didn't know if it was Carlo's words or the little boy in the corner. His eyes touched him.
"I made a mistake!" Lin Zihan bowed slowly. Lin Zihan, who had always been proud, bowed to a person he had met for less than an hour. This was Lin Zihan's bow from the heart, not hypocrisy. , not disguise.
"You'd better leave. Maybe our place isn't suitable for you!" Carlo said. He had seen mutants who, like Lin Zihan, just wanted to live. They wanted to live in human society, on the ground, and in the world. in the sun.
"I think maybe I can stay here for a few days, and it won't be too late for you to chase me away." Lin Zihan said firmly. He wanted to stay because Lin Zihan hadn't figured out who the Dihao person in that person was.
Because he wanted to know whether Carlo was telling the truth.
"It's okay to stay, but I hope you won't talk nonsense anymore." Carlo turned away and walked deeper into the dungeon alone. He was thinking that maybe Lin Zihan was right. These days, the mutants are seeking revenge. There have been too many sacrifices. It was already difficult for the mutants to get together. Now they are extremely lucky.
Looking at Carlo's back, Lin Zihan seemed to see a figure, a familiar figure. He seemed to have seen that person before, but he flashed in front of his eyes and disappeared.
