Chapter 630 Traceability
The car engine roared, and even if Levina couldn't keep up with her movement speed, she wasn't afraid of being lost.
So she relied on listening to the news and trotted along to follow.
She was lucky enough to see where the truck stopped before the sound of the engine stopped.
Then he rushed over.
The weather is good tonight, and the moonlight is like silver frost, spreading all over the earth.
Levina didn't need to get closer to see a large group of people moving over there.
It's just a little far away and you can't see clearly what is going on.
I couldn't help but wonder: "What are so many people doing?"
Compared to Levina, who can only rely on physical functions to observe, Jack has an advantage in this regard.
He could easily see that after the truck stopped, some people were carrying the bodies one by one.
Then, he went aside to collect the money.
This scene is like the dock coolies of old.
For every sack of goods delivered, you will receive a small amount of wages.
"They were loading corpses." Jack told Levina what he saw. "Those corpses were generally wearing clothes with blue and gold patterns, and there was a shield pattern on the left chest."
Levina heard this, thought about it for a moment, and then reacted: "With gold patterns on a blue background and shield-like patterns, aren't they members of the Guards?"
"So that's the escort?" Jack frowned.
In his field of vision, these bodyguard members were all like monsters.
Like, the guy with the head on his belly.
Or the guy with six arms.
No one is normal.
What's even weirder is that the limbs of these weird-looking guys are still alive.
Yes, alive, literally.
Take the head on the belly, for example. In fact, the body was missing a lot. The right shoulder and the parts above the neck were all missing, as if they had been bitten off like small biscuits.
Such a person will definitely die as hard as he can. But the head on the belly had its eyes half-open, looking like it hadn't woken up.
As the people around you move, the eyes will move slightly. It can be seen that it is a living creature.
"Living foreign bodies, and dead hosts." This is how Jack viewed these corpses and the extra limbs they carried.
"Master, what are you talking about?" Levina felt a little confused and scared.
"It's nothing." Jack said in a relaxed tone, "I'm just verifying some of my ideas."
"What's the idea?"
"Hmm... I'm not sure yet. It's hard to say." Jack didn't answer immediately.
He just had some thoughts.
After thinking about it for a while, it seemed that talking to Levina wouldn't make any difference, and maybe I might even get some advice from her.
So he said: "It doesn't hurt to tell you. I find that your world is quite strange..."
Jack spoke slowly, stating his thoughts to Levina.
First, let’s start with Levina’s new neighbor-Nancy.
Nancy is a very beautiful girl in the eyes of ordinary people. In addition, according to this world, Nancy is a person who has survived the ravages of the epidemic. Like those mutated beasts, she has also awakened her abilities and become a mutated individual among humans.
Of course, such a person has a nicer name.
They are called Awakened Ones, not mutants who are equivalent to mutant beasts. Although the two are essentially the same thing.
Back to Nancy.
As an awakened person, Nancy has spiritual power, and after learning, she can use spiritual magic. Paired with her beautiful appearance, she is a super beautiful girl and very attractive.
After all, who doesn't like such a strong and beautiful girl?
However, in Jack's eyes, there was an extra leg on the back of Nancy's neck that should belong to a man, a leg invisible to ordinary people.
Well, the problem is coming.
Is there something that Jack can see but that natives like Levina can't?
Jack could only think of ascendants like the God of Trash Cans and Qingyangzi Liu Yun.
Before that, he had seen a big tree that had absorbed a large number of ascended people and had its branches covered with human head fruits.
Based on these known conditions, he came to two conjectures.
One, innate gods like Levina can directly absorb ascended ones.
Second, the so-called spiritual awakening may be directly or indirectly related to the ascended person.
Of course, the above is just Jack's speculation.
Unless he can make an ordinary person directly awaken and gain spiritual power, his speculation will become a conclusion.
After listening to Jack's story, Levina raised a question: "Master, according to what you said, the mutated beast should also have some... um... ghosts integrated into it?"
She tells it in words she understands.
There was no way, except for the undead and ghosts, it was really hard for her to imagine that those invisible things could actually be gods.
"It's very possible." Jack did not directly deny Levina's statement.
Counting from the time he ascended to this world, until now, he has never seen a mutant beast at all. Naturally, he doesn't know if the mutant beast also has those pheasant gods all over his body.
In fact, he should have had a chance to meet it.
The giant lizard that invaded the city last night was very close to him. It's a pity that the other party collapsed the building with one foot, and he was buried directly under the ruins of the building. He had no chance to witness the special features of the mutated beast.
"Actually, if there are no accidents, I will look for opportunities to see mutant beasts in the future." Jack expressed his thoughts.
Although Nancy's existence was very special and he had seen the bodies of these escort members, his theory was quite convincing, but it was not enough.
At least, to see the living members of the Guards and the mutated beasts, it would be best to see the process of ordinary people becoming awakened ones.
In this way, we can fully explain that the so-called awakened ones are the result of the fusion of those who ascended from the lower world and the natives of this world.
"Master, I still have a question here." Levina suddenly interrupted, "I don't understand what you are talking about, but... in this process, what is the epidemic?"
People will not suddenly become awakened, and animals will not suddenly become mutated beasts.
Without the epidemic, none of this would have happened.
According to this logic, if people can become awakened and use spiritual power, their real source should also be from the epidemic.
Does this have anything to do with the Ascended?
no?
"As for your question, there are two possibilities."
Jack thought for a while and suddenly sighed.
"One possibility is that the disease is an inducer."
Jack didn't know if there was a subject called chemistry in this world, so he could only briefly explain what inducers were.
"Another possibility is that these ascendants are all the products of the epidemic."
