Behind the landslide is a circular natural cave.

The top of the cave is more than ten meters high from the ground, and the entire cave is about [-] square meters in size. According to Albatross' description, there should be the corpses of the original expedition team inside. However, when Han Xiaodong actually stepped into the deeper cave, there was no What I saw was a dead person similar to the mummy before, but a large piece of uneven limbs with severed arms.

The scene like a slaughterhouse made Han Xiaodong feel sick, even those human remains that had been torn into pieces, because of the cold, they had been air-dried for a long time, and they looked like undulating fossils.

Different from the mummified corpses he had seen before, Han Xiaodong was really not interested in studying these corpse-like fossils in front of him.

Not only are they scattered, but they seem to be connected together by something, as if they were spit out directly from the stomach of some animals.

"What happened? It's so cruel!" Han Xiaodong took out his mobile phone and took a few photos, which he sent to the albatross through the base's dedicated wireless network.

After a while, he got a reply from the albatross, which was a shocked expression, but nothing else.

Han Xiaodong was unwilling to explore the pile of wreckage, and wanted to walk around him, but was stopped by K: "Take a sample for me and put it in the treasure bag.

This request made Han Xiaodong stutter, and almost fell down: "What are you talking about? Sampling? If you have the ability to pick it up with your own hands, I won't go! Besides, don't store such disgusting things in my treasure bag!"

"Where are you talking so much nonsense, these wreckages are unusual, I need more data to understand them, if I can figure out what's going on with these things, maybe I can know why Dongmenshe produced these microorganisms. Hurry up !"

K's attitude was very firm this time, Han Xiaodong was unwilling to make a decision, and did not dare to delay the business, so he reluctantly took out gloves from his pocket, put them on, took out tools, squatted down, and began to take samples from the wreckage under his feet.

In the underground at minus [-] degrees, whether it is liquid or solid, it will become extremely hard. This is common sense and a habitual way of thinking.

Therefore, when Han Xiaodong took the knife and tried hard to scrape some samples off that small piece of rib, the transitional force made the blade make a harsh sound on the bone.As a result, the samples attached to the ribs turned out to be soft, scraping like chewed gum.

"This...why is it so soft? It hasn't been frozen at minus [-] degrees?" Han Xiaodong held up the scent-like sample in front of him, frowning and examining it repeatedly.

"Jelly, did you think of something?" K reminded.

Han Xiaodong was silent. Earlier, he saw through the electron microscope that these microorganisms were glued. Could it be that these microorganisms are deformed bodies?
Seeing that he was observing, K didn't explain much, and asked directly: "Put it in the treasure bag first, and I will send you the experimental results in a while."

According to K's request, Han Xiaodong collected some more samples before leaving the natural cave and entering a passage at the end of the cave.

After walking for a while in the winding passage, he finally saw a bright spot in front of him, and excitedly stepped forward to meet it.

When the eyes suddenly opened up, Han Xiaodong's expression froze in an instant. In front of him, under the huge ice dome, an ancient city was looming. The green mist in the air made this abandoned city look even more mysterious and strange .

In the middle of the city there is a stone pillar reaching the sky. All the green mist surrounds the stone pillar and slowly swirls in the air, looking like the eye of a tornado.

"It's so easy to find?" The situation in front of me is too clear, but the stone pillar is the center of the entire underground ruins, and even a fool can tell that the mother body must be inside.

"Don't get too excited, you still have to go through this small city." K came out in time to pour a basin of cold water.

Han Xiaodong looked down, and saw at his feet, a village consisting of four to five hundred houses, which was the only obstacle between him and the stone pillar.

"It's just a broken house, don't worry too much." Han Xiaodong said, took out the downhill rope, and started to prepare for the adventure.

The cave is opened on the rock wall, and the village is built under the rock wall. Although I don't know what the purpose of this design is, just judging from the current situation, the cave on the rock wall is the only entrance and exit of the city. It is also to control the people in the city and prevent them from leaving without permission.

When Han Xiaodong landed on his feet, he felt a little dazed. The whole city was filled with thick green fog. Fortunately, his air shield was fully opened, otherwise he might have died in the cave.

After he entered the city, the surrounding green mist seemed to be alive, slowly gathering towards him. If it wasn't for the rotating protection of the air shield, he would be completely wiped out by the dense fog in just a short moment. cover.

"They seem to have their own consciousness. Are they trying to drive us away?" Han Xiaodong looked at the green mist gathering towards him.

These guys who will actively find the target remind him of the immune system in animals. Now that they have found the enemy, they seem to want to drive him away.

"You are really optimistic." K said, projecting a dynamic report in front of Han Xiaodong's eyes.

He took the initiative to explain to him: "They are not trying to drive us away, but want to occupy your body. Those gelatinous reports came out, and they are the microorganisms in the air. It is still a grown-up version, these things will occupy your body. the human body, and then..."

"Evolution?!" Before K could say it, Han Xiaodong blurted out the answer.

Before his eyes, small glial cells quickly gathered, eventually invaded the host, and began to transform into a more complex form.

"If you say that, you are only half right. In fact, they are not evolving, but looking for the path of evolution, or conducting rapid genetic mutation experiments." K said, showing the results of many evolutions, and finally But none of them succeeded, all were crossed.

"Then what is the significance of doing this?" Han Xiaodong looked at the strange evolutionary results in front of him, and was very puzzled by this approach.

"It's very meaningful!" K continued: "The evolution rate of creatures in our world is very slow. Even a small-scale evolution of a species will take tens of thousands of years, or even millions of years. , because your evolution is passive, but they are different."

"So, their real ability is to actively evolve, and to invade other creatures is just to find experimental subjects and find the fastest evolutionary path?!" Han Xiaodong finally understood what K meant.

This answer made him unable to believe it was true!Active evolution?This is simply more than the Arabian Nights.Evolution has always been a change in organisms to adapt to the environment, and it is unheard of to actively seek to make themselves stronger through evolution.

If this kind of creature is allowed to succeed, it will definitely be a huge disaster. They can even become evil creatures that surpass humans in a very short time.

"This is crazy." Looking at the evolution map in front of him, he sighed, "Dongmenshe, this bastard, what is going on?"
