Rebirth in the apocalypse: Cannon fodder and real daughter no longer want to be human beings

Zhu Yan activated her powers to pull apart the blood demon's corpse, and rolled out a red crystal the size of a corn kernel.

After careful inspection, Zhu Yan's expression changed.

She had seen this thing before, in the source world.

There, this thing is called source crystal, which is essential for the birth of source and source beads. It seems to be a specialty of the source world.

How could such a thing exist in this small world?

In her last life, she had been in a state of wandering for half a year, and when she was reborn, she had never heard of the blood demon producing source crystals.

Is it an accident?

Or the butterfly effect?

Zhu Yan activated her powers to split all the corpses of the remaining blood demons, and obtained three more Source Crystals from them.

The largest ones are about the size of peanuts and the smallest ones are about the size of rice grains.

A few others had nothing.

The source crystal may have just been conceived, and those without source crystal must not have reached the conditions for gestation.

It may also be that some are unable to conceive.

But no matter what, Yuan Jing appeared, and I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing.

I don’t know if Yuan will produce Yuan Power after being conceived and matured? Is it because these sources of power are excessive and condensed in the blood demon's body for some reason?

Or... other reasons?

If the world within the source does not produce source power, if the source power of their world is extracted in large quantities and condensed into source crystals...

For a time, countless thoughts flashed through Zhu Yan's mind.

"What's wrong, there's something wrong with these things?"

Pei Ji also held a source crystal and looked at it. Apart from being very beautiful, he didn't see any problems with it.

Zhu Yan did not answer, but clenched the source crystal in her hand and tried to swallow it.

The source of crystallization causes streams of heat to pour into the body.

Can be absorbed.

Zhu Yan felt carefully that the heat flowed through her body to her abdomen and disappeared.

What the hell is this going to do?

Zhu Yan looked at the sky, feeling suddenly uneasy.

Is this the case in every Gennai world, or is this a sudden change?

After taking a breath, Zhu Yan asked Pei Ji to also try to absorb the source crystal.

Pei Ji followed what she said, closed his eyes, concentrated on the source crystal in his hand, and meditated on absorbing it.

For a moment, Pei Ji's eyes widened suddenly and he looked at the palm of his hand.

The source crystal there has disappeared.

"I can absorb it too."

Pei Ji said excitedly: "Isn't this the second evolution? Mutated creatures can condense crystals by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Can superpowers become powerful by absorbing such crystals? I have read some novels before, and they are all like this. Written. Ours is a world in a book, and maybe it’s the same setting.”

Zhu Yan wanted to agree.

Because she has also read a lot of novels, which are indeed written like this.

But the problem is, this world is not a novel.

She said it was a novel just to make it easier for them to understand and accept.

Moreover, she has been to the source world and knows how the source is generated...or maybe her knowledge is not comprehensive?

Maybe the real situation is just like the novel she read, but she just overthinks it. This is really an opportunity for the second evolution of human beings.

Countless thoughts were running around in her mind. Zhu Yan felt that her head was about to explode and she quickly stopped thinking.

The only fault is that there is too little information. A little knowledge can really kill people.

"Do you feel any discomfort after absorbing this stuff?"

After a while, Zhu Yan asked Pei Ji.

Pei Ji sensed it carefully and shook his head: "No. Not only am I not uncomfortable, but I feel a lot more energetic."

After he finished speaking, he asked again: "Are you feeling uncomfortable? I think your face doesn't look right."

"No, I'm just thinking. I don't know when these things were produced in the Blood Demon's body. How many people know about it so far."

"If the Pei family had known earlier and killed the blood demon in advance to obtain these things for absorption, I'm afraid we would have had a fierce battle this time."

Zhu Yan shook her head and found a reason to lie.

Pei Ji felt that what she said made sense.

"Then let's hurry over and observe from the outside first. If there is a chance, we will take action. If it is too difficult, we don't need to be tough. We will just find opportunities later. After all, even if the heavenly law that protects them disappears, this book The middle world was also established by that way, and maybe it will move forward according to the settings of that way. After all, the inertia of cause and effect cannot be ignored."

Now it was Zhu Yan's turn to feel that Pei Ji was right.

And if you think about it carefully, it is indeed the case.

Killing Ye Mingzhu only prevents her from forcibly interfering with the operation of the world.

But the world has been running so far, and due to inertia, many things are definitely going towards Ye Xinrou and the members of the protagonist group.

"Keep the green hills here and do whatever you can. If you really can't, there's no need to force yourself. After all, living is your capital."

The two agreed to head east again.

About a hundred miles away, the two saw a small town built along the river.

The river winds out of the mountains and flows quietly through a plain.

The river is about ten meters wide, and there are houses standing on both sides of the river. There are almost hundreds of households.

The town that used to be lively and prosperous is now deserted, not to mention people, not even a blood demon. In addition, most of the houses collapsed and were overgrown with weeds, making it look unpopular.

But the two of them were suspended high in the sky, looking around, and saw no trace of anyone as far as they could see.

"It should be here."

Pei Ji looked at the town below and said.

"Go down and have a look."

Zhu Yan pulled Pei Ji and flew towards the woods near the town.

He put Pei Ji on a tree and said, "I'll go over and investigate. You stay here and guard."

"Okay, be careful."

Pei Ji nodded.

Zhu Yan looked around and flew left along the forest.

After she was completely out of Pei Ji's sight, Zhu Yan found a hidden place, transformed into a small flying ant, and then flew towards the town.

Entering the town from the south, the little flying ants flapped their wings quickly and shuttled back and forth in the town.

But found nothing.

No people, no animals, no blood demons.

There's something unusual about the cleanliness.

Zhu Yan checked back and forth again, but still found nothing.

It shouldn't be. Even if the opponent moves their position, there won't be any traces left.

unless……

Zhu Yan looked at the slow and flowing river.

Unless the other party passed through the town from the river and did not stop in the town.

The river is ten meters wide and at least three meters deep. It can pass some rubber boats without any problem.

Zhu Yan immediately followed along the river bank.

Finally, three kilometers north of the town, the river entered a dense forest and was bisected by a shoal.

One crashed into the shallows.

The rubber boat on the shoal seemed to have been violently bitten, and it was broken into pieces. There were pieces of blood-stained clothing on the ground. But there were no traces of leaving.

The people who rushed to the shoal must have been attacked by something, and they were all wiped out.

A damaged rubber boat washed up on the left bank, leaving a mess on the ground.

There were human footprints, and there were also prints that looked like slender bamboo leaves.

"These are... crocodile footprints!"

Zhu Yan took a breath after finding the relatively complete seal and carefully distinguishing it.

This shore is densely covered with such footprints. How many crocodiles must there be?

The imprint moved forward and entered the dense forest.

I have been looking at the traces for some days, but there are no traces of the return journey.

Those crocodiles chased them into the forest and didn't come out?

That group of official technology teams should not have the ability to wipe out the crocodile group, otherwise they wouldn't have fled in panic.

Or is it that the crocodiles returned from somewhere else after eating the humans?

No, if the entire army was wiped out, why would the officials find someone to rescue them urgently?

The survivors should be hiding, but there is a big crisis in the forest, so that the crocodiles never return.

Zhu Yan flapped her wings and flew high into the sky, looking towards the dense forest.

The view was blocked by the lush canopy of trees and nothing could be seen.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yan flapped her wings and landed quietly close to the forest.
