Chapter 829 Mutagenesis of Elves
Ye Zi doesn't like Xu Cheng, but there is no way, Xu Yang can, anyway, Xu Yang has a lot of love, enough to give everyone a share.
Outside the city is the domain of the forest lord.
People in the middle ages hunted white deer in search of auspiciousness in nature. In fact, they were some kind of incarnation of the forest lord.
Xu Yang left his coat on the branch, so that he felt closer to nature, like two incompatible liquids slowly combining.
The lord of the forest is as ubiquitous as air, and he can breathe it once he leaves the prison made of steel and concrete.
Xu Yang entered the cold and quiet depths of the dense forest, where he seemed to be the only one left alone with the world.
"...my daughter is the holder of the magical power of plants. I want to find some blessings or accessories for her." Xu Yang looked around. The forest is like an endless maze of self-replicating mirror images. As long as you go deep enough, you will see It is always the alternation of trees, wilderness, hills and streams.
"You have got my promise, I can forge a semi-artifact for her." The voice of the forest lord was vague, sometimes making Xu Yang feel like he was hallucinating.
"Thank you in advance, and... Farosha wants to find a phoenix." Xu Yang looked at the surrounding trees.
Those tall trees are like guards on guard, ready to go to punish intruders at any time.
He didn't need to look for the Lord of the Forest specifically, because it was everywhere.
The leaves rustled with the wind, and a certain peaceful, broad and wild atmosphere came with the breeze. Xu Yang felt his heart beating more powerfully, as if he was chasing the pulse of the common ancestor of life.
"Phoenix...that is a powerful creature." The voice of the forest lord was sharp and elongated like a mountain wind passing through a very narrow crack.
"If she fights on a phoenix, she may be very powerful."
"I can also fly, but the injury is too serious, Falosa may not think about it." The Lord of the forest was a little afraid of Falosa.
Xu Yang stared at the forest carefully, as if he was seriously considering controlling the master of the forest.
"...Don't follow her example."
"No matter what, she wants to fight and win. So do I. We have to fight until the last moment to prove our right and strive for a better ending for everyone." Xu Yang said.
"They think so too." The Lord of the forest said, "Those who are on the opposite side of you think so too."
"...they..." Xu Yang sat down on the grass.
"Dirnay only wants to find the throne stolen by Orsian, Edith just wants to avenge the witch who destroyed the old civilization, Ishtar is just frightened by the endless hostility, and the people of Seven Seals are just They are cautiously guarding the power of the giant tower plan. They also dream all the time: they must defeat the Nestor Corporation and Falosa, and strive for a better ending."
Yes, are they going to kill Falosa? Xu Yang shook his head.
From their point of view, the story of these eight years unfolded with the awakening of Falosa, the fragments of the throne, and the gift of the god-killing blade from Sylphy. Gradually, they also realized the threat of Falosa. Sexuality, embark on the road to pursue their respective ultimate goals, and finally stand on the opposite side of Falosa.
They are so determined that they are bound to crush Faroza under their feet and erase the existence of Nisto Company from history.
"... On both sides, no one will leave the stage..." Xu Yang said.
"Or, it's too late." The Lord of the forest said leisurely, "All communities confirm themselves in confrontation. If you were not so strong, they would not let go of their prejudices and cooperate. Dirnai and Edith used to cooperate with each other. They have been fighting for many years, but now they have become unshakable allies, and there may be more mystics on their side, all unwilling to see Farosha win."
Two major powers across the world.
I said before that the image at the Dragon Conference was like a rehearsal, the prelude to an endgame, unintentionally revealing each other's true strength to both sides. Xu Yang was thinking silently. In order to heal Princess Yaotang's wounds, Kunxu has already changed its position, and it is difficult to enlist their help when it will be opened next time.
"...Do you know? What exactly is the Giant Tower Project?" Xu Yang looked at the Lord of the Forest.
"As far as I know, sisters Yaoguang and Yaoan are a pair of keys to open the giant tower. They will become the 'keys of the tower' when they have to. Only they know all the answers, and only they are qualified to rule the fate of the giant tower. They were entrusted with this responsibility decades ago." The Lord of the Forest manifested his avatar, a white stag with huge golden horns, walking slowly among the trees.
The captains of the SkyDrive Agreement under the Company Alliance, Yao Guang and Key Dark!
Their names are very strange, as if they were born with a pair of keys.
Now the words of the Lord of the Forest point out the truth: they will eventually become "the key to penetrate the giant tower", and what they want to open is the giant tower itself.
But the key sisters are the last trump card of the company alliance, Xu Yang can't even find them, unless there is a big event like Pan Yuan's "runaway", otherwise they won't show up at all.
"Then how can I talk to them and find out the truth about the giant tower project?" Xu Yang asked.
"More than a hundred years ago, I was hunted down by the company alliance. At that time, Yao Guang and Yao An hunted me down." The Lord of the Forest said.
That’s right, the Sky Drive Agreement was established very early. At that time, Yau Guang Yau An was just an ordinary operator, and they didn’t even call this pair of names. After all, they were not real sisters, but their magic powers matched and they were powerful. . Xu Yang silently speculated.
Key light can bend light, move at the speed of light, and communicate with light waves, etc. Key darkness can create shadow fields by manipulating shadows, and even use shadow control to directly manipulate others.
"At that time, they were just high-ranking witches, and they couldn't defeat Your Excellency." Xu Yang said.
"Of course, they are not strong. They were defeated by me, but let them go. They were lost in the last dense forest, crushed by branches, rocks and beasts, and bleed coldly on the ground. I will not kill, but I will not let them go. In the end, I want them to swear an oath to owe a life-and-death grace." The forest lord raised his head.
A faint green light glowed in the air, and a stone fell to the ground.
"This is..." Xu Yang walked towards the grass.
"'The Proof of the Oath', let them remember this favor, and now I am handing over the Proof of the Oath to you, it may come in handy in the future." The Lord of the Forest said.
Two faded marks were carved on the stone, as if left by the light and the dark.
"Thank you!" Xu Yang accepted the oath certificate and nodded to the Lord of the Forest.
Now I have something to say when facing the key sisters.
"...Then, I hope you can help me find those mutagens." The Lord of the Forest said suddenly.
"Gene mutagen..." Xu Yang nodded.
Mutagen, I saw it in Zangus in Reshuzhou back then. Xu Yang thought.
It can promote large-scale tampering of human genes, endow people with additional body mutations, and make people mutate or evolve rapidly.
The results of drinking the mutagen are completely random, often turning people into grotesque amalgams of animal and human, like the Nightmare Amalgamator, which pops out into a variety of shapes.
Claws, tails, night vision eyes, echinoderms, gills, and even hands and feet become tree roots, or develop blood-sucking habits.
Despite the dangers and the flattening of the Pharmacy Company's stockpile in Zangers, the mutagen managed to start becoming prevalent in the world.
Those who want to transcend the limits of human beings are all eager to change their destiny through the power of mutagens.
"I need a mutagen to help me, and I can help you too. I know there is a phoenix gate in Taixi Continent, which leads to a strange small world. There are still some phoenixes living there, but the person who opened the phoenix gate The premise is that an elf will show up in person, after all, the Phoenix Gate will only open under the touch of an elf." The Lord of the Forest said.
Elf!
Extinct humanoid creatures still survived in Faroza's time.
But in modern times, due to the deterioration of the air and soil environment, and the collapse of the natural environment of the mountains and forests, the elves have been completely extinct.
Can the Lord of the forest bring the elves back to the world through the power of mutagen?
Mutagens are not yet available in the northern archipelago because their effects are too unstable to cause tragedy.
Xu Yang left the forest, went to the scientific research department to get some, and handed them over to the forest master.
Under the action of the Lord of the Forest's power, the mutagen was extracted by it and drilled into a gorgeous vial.
It seemed to have been pre-prepared by the Forest Lord's Mysteries, adorned with intricate filigree and ornate ancient runes, as if some ancient elven craft had been reborn for this age.
"The special mutagen is ready, who will drink it?" Xu Yang asked.
"My female environmental protection knight, she is getting stronger and stronger, praying to become slender again, and to gain longevity, to be with nature's green forever." The Lord of the Forest walked on the grass.
Its environmental knight, a blond, strong woman, had injected herself with the mutagen blessed by the lord of the forest, in the presence of other serene servants.
Xu Yang found that she was indeed much taller and mightier than when he first met. Could this be the power of a vegetarian?
She looked a little distressed, but she was able to withstand the stress, and the mutagen seemed to be tampering with her genes, allowing her to generate new mutant traits at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The others stepped back, dressed in plain natural fabrics, and prayed for the victory of the Environmental Knight.
These people come from all over the world, and most of them are from Taixizhou. They participate in the natural mysteries here in pursuit of the eternal peace of the woodland.
As time passed by, the body of the environmental knight gradually shrank.
Xu Yang was a little surprised. The mutagen that would have caused genetic disorder seemed to have become a targeted mutagen with elf characteristics under the influence of the power of the forest lord.
Her skin has become refined and delicate, reflecting a delicate and subtle luster, and it seems that she has acquired extraordinary new abilities under the power of the mutagen, and the beauty of her body has also greatly improved.
After getting over the initial pain, her voice also became melodious, almost like the graceful song of a bird.
"Turned into... an elf?" Xu Yang murmured.
"...the genetic mutagen produced by the human biological laboratory is a dangerous invention. It can continuously create subspecies of human beings, and the ancient blood of elves can also be reproduced in the human world through this method." Lord of the Forest road.
The Lord of the Forest led Xu Yang back, and other members of the Mystery Troupe surrounded him, as if celebrating the transformation of the Environmental Knight's elves.
"This process is both dangerous and irreversible." Xu Yang felt that mutagens are a dangerous invention.
Humans have transformed themselves into almost robotics with implants and prosthetics, and now there are plenty of new mutagens that can turn humans into elves, or beastmen, or dwarves, or halflings.
Xu Yang only felt that it was necessary to restrict or even ban the circulation of mutagen.
"You don't like it?" asked the Lord of the Forest.
"The mutation it brings is very dangerous." Xu Yang said.
"—What if a witch mutagen can be developed?" said the Lord of the Forest.
Witch mutagen?
"A large number of human beings have been turned into witches..." Xu Yang shook his head, "That's even more terrifying. The current trend of witches is already increasing, as if the 'witch plague' that the old civilization is facing is spreading. All births in the delivery room are barren witches, and the entire civilization is cut off."
"Or the other way around, turning the witch back into a human?" said the Lord of the Forest.
"Purifying agent?" Xu Yang pondered.
"You have also seen the power of these gene-mutating serums. Witches can be created. You have seen many experiments, so witches can also be destroyed. One day, the bioengineering of human technology is enough to make witches return to normal people. From now on, the birth and demise of witches are completely determined by human beings. The most cutting-edge technology is already in front of your eyes, do you just want to ban it?"
The voice of the forest lord became more melodious and far-reaching until it completely disappeared.
