But what did Slime do wrong?

"Whoa, whoa—"

The blond young man in a leather jacket sighed as he looked at the chimera ant's very neat stump that had been cut with a sword.

"Isn't this amazing?"

He picked up a small piece of armor and pinched it vigorously with his fingertips, his lake green eyes were full of smiles.However, if you look at it carefully, you can see that what is hidden under those smiles is actually as cold as a frozen lake.

No matter how sunny and lively the performance is, it is undeniable that the essence of this young man is still cold and dangerous. If anyone is deceived by the appearance deliberately shown on the outside, then he will definitely do it for this. And suffer a lot.

"I am a knight."

The young man greeted Fujimaru Tachika and the others in such a sunny and cheerful manner.

The kid from before didn't know where he went, or in other words, when he recognized Feitan as a member of the "Spider", he already wanted to leave with oil on his feet.

Whether it is inside Meteor Street or outside, the Phantom Troupe's notoriety has obviously spread far, far, anyway, it is the kind of existence that people are afraid to avoid.

Rimuru has turned back into a slime and is lying on Fujimaru Tachika's shoulder... Because according to the information that Shire can detect in this world, the degree of tolerance for species is obviously open Many, it is not something worth making a fuss about carrying World of Warcraft around humans.

...But, of course, you still need to think about it. In case the monster has too high value, or it is so rare that it is targeted by others, and you want to use some bad means, that is It's another matter.

This young man named "Xia Ke" was the companion on Feitan's phone call.

"Excuse me, what exactly is this...?"

Fujimaru Tachika couldn't help asking.

No wonder he had such doubts, it was really because under Meilin's suggestion, Fujimaru Tateka discovered some terrible changes in these ants.It's hard to say whether it's a special case or something else... But all in all, those ants are indeed closer to what a human being should have than one.

Fujimaru Tatsuka's heart skipped a beat.

It looks as if they are evolving step by step towards human beings... and it is a creepy and fast evolution speed.

Rimuru obviously thought of this too.

The blue slime jumped off the shoulder of the human master, and then hopped and approached some wreckage on the ground.The translucent gel-like body precisely wrapped those residual limbs, and then countless bubbles popped out of the slime's body that could be seen with the naked eye, and those debris were rapidly dissolving. ——In other words, being "digested".

After all the bubbles disappeared, Limuru burped, opened her mouth, and spit out a small bubble with a "pop".

"them……"

Limulu frowned, not knowing what kind of language he should use to describe the information about ants he had just obtained.

"There is indeed a part of their DNA that is the same—the part that belongs to ants. But apart from this, the other part that makes up their individual existence is completely different."

"Some are human DNA, some are animal DNA, all are different..." Reminiscing what these chimeric ants were eating before, Limulu faintly had a very bad premonition, "They Isn't it possible to integrate and extract the creatures eaten by oneself, and then react to one's own evolution?"

Fujimaru Tachika realized the seriousness of the matter almost immediately: "If this is the case, wouldn't it be because of their evolutionary instinct that they will wantonly catch prey even when they are not hungry?"

"If it goes on like that... what incredible things will evolve in the end!"

Matthew also understood, as long as she thinks about it in this direction, she will feel shuddering.

"Well, about this..."

In Xia Ke's hand is a mobile phone with a little devil charm hanging on it, and his fingers are flying like flying on the small keys, and he doesn't know what he is clicking on.

After a while, he raised his head from the phone and showed a screen on his phone: "It is indeed similar to what you said."

You only need to log in to the hunter's website, and you can get a lot of information very easily; combining the existing information with the conjecture that Limulu and the others just came up with, you can almost infer the whole story.

"From about a few months ago, the independent country NGL completely lost all the blockade from the outside world; the Hunter Association sent a commissioner to investigate this, but so far no clear news has been uploaded to the background network."

"In contrast, ants that feed on humans began to appear around the NGL... Ah, of course, we also appeared on Meteor Street, and there are still a lot of them. I personally tend to think that the initial ants may be It floated over from the coastline, and started breeding."

As for the mode of reproduction, it is obviously self-evident.

"Using humans... as seedbeds and bait..."

Fujimaru Tachika murmured, clenched her fists unconsciously.

There is no need to say more things, just need to know this, Fujimaru Tachika already understands why this world becomes a singularity.

Isn't this a matter of course?If such things are not stopped, then those ants will not hesitate to start a war until the whole world becomes their livestock farm.

That is indeed a major event enough to destroy an entire civilization and humanity.

Although this world seems to have no connection with their original world, whether it is the composition of the world, the habits of civilization, different power systems...all of these are different in many ways, and they will not be mistaken at all. To be is to be a part of being separated from one's own world.

Logically speaking, this matter can stop here.Since it doesn't affect your own world, it doesn't seem to matter if you leave it alone.

However, Fujimaru Tachika thought, how could he just walk away after knowing about it, without caring about it?Neither conscience nor morality allow him to do so.

"Merlin, Matthew, I think..."

He pursed his lips.

"I want to stay and help them."

Merlin's reaction to this was a very relaxed smile: "Oh, why are you telling me this? You are the Master? No matter what kind of decision, of course you should make it - and what we have to do is just Just carry out the decisions you made, that's all."

And Mash also held the shield in his hand, and when Fujimaru Tachika looked over, he showed a nice smile to the other party: "Your will is the direction I need to work hard and protect, senior... no, Master!"

Limulu jumped in front of the knight a few times: "Can you provide more information about those ants?"

"We are here for them... No, it should be said, we are here for this world!"

The knight bent down, looked at this strange monster that he had never seen before, thoughtful.The other party's few short sentences just now contain an incredible amount of information, and it is worth analyzing word by word.

But of course, this kind of analysis shouldn't be put into the present... The corner of the knight's lips curled into a small arc, it was an undetectable smile.With a flick of a finger, a recorded message was sent out.On the other side, the dialog box of the person whose note is [Leader] lights up, showing that the message is accepted.

"This is not a place to talk, do you want to go with us first?"

the chivalrous man asked.

Fei Tan was not happy: "Hey, knight, what are you talking about!"

"This is the meaning of the leader."

The knight shook the phone in his hand towards Fei Tan.

The regimental leader he was talking about seemed to be quite authoritative, because Fei Tan, who originally held strong objections, heard the words, although he still muttered a few times, he didn't say anything else in the end.

"Uh, so, excuse me?"

Fujimaru Tachika dumbfoundedly agreed...they just arrived and they didn't know what kind of invitation they agreed to.

"You're welcome."

The knight answered briskly.

For prey, always have the necessary patience, experienced hunters are very good at this.

The group of them was triggered, led by Xia Ke and Fei Tan, and headed in a certain direction.Limulu bounced around beside the knight, instinctively thinking that this man should be easier to talk to than the short young man before.

"Hero, can I ask you something?"

"Huh? Want to ask me something?"

The knight didn't seem to dislike Limuru's question.

"In this world, is everything like this...the harsh living environment like a garbage dump?"

The knight's eyes darkened: "No, only Meteor Street is like this."

"Meteor Street..."

This is already the second time Limulu has heard people emphasize this place name so emphatically.

"Meteor Street is... special?"

Fei Tan let out a very piercing sneer beside him: "You are clearly standing here, but you don't know anything about it?"

"Fitan."

The knight stopped his companion's snatching and stinging, and relying on Limulu and the others' undefended words before, the knight had actually guessed something.

He answered Limulu patiently: "Meteor Street is an abandoned corner in our world, a place forgotten and abandoned by the whole world. Everything that is not needed by the outside world will be abandoned here. Here, it is just for Struggling to survive already consumes all of your energy."

Limuru opened his mouth, and then opened his mouth again.

[Charles? ]

He shouted.

Although the knight did not have any emotional fluctuations when he said these words, but for some reason, Limulu just felt that there was something extremely heavy underneath.

Shire has always been responsive to requests, and in just a moment, he passed all the information about Meteor Street to Limuru.

"what happened to you?"

The knight noticed that the strange blue creature didn't answer for a long time. When he lowered his head to look, he saw the slime's figure constantly expanding and shrinking. Constant ups and downs.

"It will develop like this because of the lack of survival resources and the outside world's doing nothing?" Limulu looked at him and murmured, as if he was talking to the knight, but also seemed to be talking to himself, "If you can If you break the bounds, provide enough resources for survival, and see the sky outside... Will there be any changes here?"

"Will it be a place to live?"

The knight thought that he should laugh at such a naive idea that was almost absurd.

But Limulu's tone was too sincere, and he couldn't help but want to seriously reply to the other party.

"Maybe?"

The spider responded half-truthfully.

Limulu let out an "oh"—and then, in the eyes of the knight, this strange phantom fell into silence.

However, in fact, Rimuru was communicating with Ciel...

[Charles, you say. ]

The owner of the Demon Kingdom asked.

[Can I open the communication between this world and my original world? ]
