The edge of pure land

When Lu Buer realized the crisis, he turned his head and met the pair of eyes flowing with blood. The strong death intention came with the wind and sand, infecting half of his face.

In an instant, the left half of his face was severely dehydrated and withered as if it had experienced thousands of years of weathering. The dandruff fell off like debris, revealing the white bones.

According to legend, in the ancient Egyptian era, especially in the period of life disasters, people often gained curse-like powers after being infected with the corruption virus. They were like demons returning from the underworld. They only needed to breathe lightly at people, and the other party would become a skeleton.

Today, this rumor is still circulating on both sides of the Nile River. Legends similar to the Pharaoh's curse are discussed from time to time. In fact, this seemingly strange ability is just a conceptual change of the Eye of Death, and its name is withering.

Fortunately, Lu Buer has an immortal body, and the truth-level alien magic from the evolutionary chain of the God of Origin, in game terms, is the basic value is maxed out. Even if half of his face has been completely rotten and weathered, it can be reborn at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The cells proliferated wildly, and the majestic vitality surged.

At this moment, there was a bang!

The gravel exploded in front of the domain of the golden beast. One by one, the tiny gravel actually penetrated the electromagnetic field protection, penetrated his body, and tore the flesh and bones.

The severe pain made his eyes black.

Countless tiny gravels gathered again in his body and grabbed his heart!

With a puff.

The huge force directly crushed Lu Buer's heart, and he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood from his throat, and the blood was still carrying fragments of internal organs, which was shocking.

"Die."

At this moment, dust and gravel trembled and gathered on the ground.

The man hiding in the ruins finally stood up, because he knew that if he wanted to kill an evolver who possessed an immortal body, he had to destroy the other party's brain and heart together.

With the tremor of the earth, this human body crouched and ran like a cheetah, and a majestic dark matter gushed out from behind, as if it began to transform from a human form to a white ghost form.

Sixth-level overlord, skeleton giant.

The flesh and blood of this human body was swallowed by the dark matter, and the white bones proliferated and grew, making a tooth-grinding sound, crackling like a string of firecrackers.

But the difference is that the skull of this skeleton giant still has flesh and blood, but it is not the face just now, but a twisted, black face.

"The human body will change its face after becoming a white ghost?"

Lu Buer vomited blood again, and this incredible thought flashed through his mind.

But what is even more incredible is that this face seems a little familiar.

Human memory is like a hard disk that is easily demagnetized. No one can remember everything after birth. Unimportant information will often be selectively forgotten, and only those impressive fragments will be retained and sealed in the depths of the mind. But even so, as people grow up, some experiences that were once thought to be unforgettable will become insignificant and become a thing of the past.

Just like the sand washed by the tide, there will always be fewer and fewer things left at the end.

Most people are like this, including Lu Buer.

If he were in his normal state, he would definitely not be able to remember it.

But now he is still in the mystery state of the God Ashes Technique. With his endless computing power, he easily recalled the forgotten memories, and his expression became stunned.

Because he had seen this black man before.

Not after breaking out of the cocoon.

But five hundred years ago.

That was three months and four days after Lu Buer was first diagnosed with cancer. In a private hospital in San Francisco, USA, his parents took him to participate in a gene optimization project.

At that time, in addition to him, there were 34 other patients from different countries and races, but they were all patients with the same disease and got along well with each other.

At that time, the black man gave him a piece of gum.

That day was June 12, 5:34:57 pm.

The man in black was a retired soldier. He was quite strong at that time. He wore a necklace that symbolized his identity around his neck and tattoos on his arms.

Scattered memories flashed through Lu Buer's mind.

"Justin Melnick, a former member of the US Navy SEALs..."

Boom!

The right arm of the skeleton giant suddenly proliferated and swelled, and the white bones were stained with the smell of decay, like a poisoned spear piercing the air and attacking the boy's forehead.

The trembling sound of the knife was like thunder.

Lu Buer, who was on the verge of death, raised his hand, and the black wooden sword drew a sharp lightning!

With a click, the right arm of the skeleton giant was cut off by a knife.

The knife light illuminated the night.

The red hair fluttered, and the golden pupils between the hair were so fierce and ferocious.

Before the skeleton giant could react, he was pierced in the eyes by a line of hot electric light.

Lu Buer moved like thunder, stepping on the gravel all over the ground and running wildly. The black wooden sword was wrapped with violent arcs of electricity, and it exploded like a gusher with the blade's fatal stab, raining pear blossoms.

It looked like a knife, but there was a majestic plasma gushing out, which looked like a meteor that cut through the darkness, directly smashing the body of the skeleton giant.

The huge skeleton collapsed with a loud bang, like a building collapsed.

Only a head that was scorched by electricity fell down and was grabbed.

"You are very strong to force me to this point."

Lu Buer rarely gets injured so badly except when facing an opponent who is much higher in rank than him. In many cases, his immortal body only provides defense, but not for healing.

"Justin Melnick."

He said coldly.

Unexpectedly, even with such a serious injury, Justin still retained his sanity. When he heard the name, his pure black pupils suddenly shrank.

But he did not show a panic expression. Instead, he smiled a very strange smile and said hoarsely: "It is said that noble people forget things easily. A great man like you can still remember a small character like me. Sure enough, because you have practiced the secrets, you remember it?"

His accent is like an American who has just learned Chinese, but his tone does not hide the sarcasm and malice, as if the devil is cursing others.

"From your tone, it seems that there is something wrong between us."

Lu Buer frowned: "How did you become like this?"

Now he has got the answer. The interfaces and codes behind these human bodies are not from the newly possessed bodies, but they are carried by themselves.

Just like the black man in front of him.

"What did you become? The appearance of a white walker? You mock me so noble, but what is the difference between you and me? At first, we were clearly the same kind of people. We thought you were dead, but we didn't expect you to be so tenacious and live to this day..." Justin laughed strangely.

Lu Buer was silent for a moment. When he went to the United States for gene optimization treatment, his brain was severely damaged, and his memory of that time was also vague.

This Justin obviously knew him and had some grudges with him.

At that time, he was just a little kid, how could he offend this person?

At this time, Lu Buer suddenly thought of what Omega said.

Twelve years of Lu Buer's life disappeared strangely.

Could it be at that time?

Lu Buer's mind was in a mess, but the head in his hand laughed hoarsely.

He exerted force with his right hand, and the scorching thunder exploded, burning the head into charcoal.

Lu Buer awakened the seed of the gods, forcibly devoured the remaining dark matter in the body, turned around and looked at the body that he had just smashed. When the alien transformation was lifted, the human body was exposed. Because it was covered by bones before, the body was well protected.

He raised his foot to turn the body over, and sure enough, he saw the wound and code on the back of the neck.

Exactly the same.

"These people are former members of the Navy SEALs, veterans."

Lu Buer felt that his brain was about to be overloaded. He took a last second to look at the corpse in the ruins and whispered softly: "This Justin Melnick, and his teammates. If I guessed correctly, they all appeared in that sanatorium back then."

These people are all aliens, and they are human bodies!

No, something is wrong.

If these people are the human bodies of the White Walkers, then what about the wounds and numbers on the back of their necks? Such things should never be left behind.

According to the report of the First White Walker Research Institute of the Supreme Federation, dark matter, a special substance, is similar to human cells, has extremely strong activity, and can also carry information.

Through self-division and replication, a new population of individuals can be formed.

Through aggregation and engulfment, a more powerful population of individuals can be born.

In very rare cases, consciousness can be stored in dark matter.

This is why there are ancient species.

Compared with ordinary White Walkers, ancient species are more like the king of the population.

Take the decayed ghosts of the origin sequence as an example.

Ninety-nine percent of the decayed ghosts in the world have no self-awareness, but there may be an individual with the ability to think, similar to the wolf king in a wolf pack, who is the ruler.

The original humans believed that wisdom would be born randomly in the population of White Walkers.

But five hundred years of research have overturned this speculation.

Individuals with wisdom will awaken in the population of White Walkers.

But it is not because they have evolved.

It is because the individuals who store the ancient consciousness have awakened.

Unfortunately, even the ancient species have limited thinking ability. Their consciousness seems to be defective. Even after being captured, they cannot be studied.

So far, no one knows how the ancient species came from. They are all the first white walkers born in ancient times, and they once had a short and mysterious civilization.

In summary, the special phenomenon discovered by Lu Buer at this moment is very likely the first case after the opening of the new era, because it is absolutely impossible for the white walkers to leave scars and marks on their bodies, and the gathering and separation of dark matter will not leave traces, which has been proven by experiments.

"It's like I built a sand castle on the beach, but it was crushed by someone. No matter what shape I make with this pile of sand, that footprint should not exist."

Lu Buer whispered softly.

Unless the genetic information in the dark matter has been changed.

He raised his head and looked at the jagged building that looked like a giant.

"Who are you?"

Lu Buer whispered softly.

His right hand reached into his pocket again and took out a handful of coins.

The coins were thrown into the air, colliding with each other, making a crisp sound.

The human bodies that were moving through the darkness like ghosts all stopped and silently looked down at him.

That look was like a reunion after a long separation.

"Who are we? This may not be important to you. Since that upheaval, no one cares who we used to be. Especially you, you are not qualified to ask us such questions. Because it was you who betrayed us and abandoned us."

Someone looked down and said in a cold tone: "We are left to keep each other warm, like being abandoned in the deepest darkness, and turned into so-called monsters. It's all your fault. You crushed our hopes with your own hands."

Lu Buer paused slightly in tossing the coin, his eyes confused.

"That's right, it seems you don't remember anything."

The face of the human body was rotten, revealing an extremely hideous face, still familiar: "You should go to the ice layer under the Arctic to take a look."
