From Reincarnated Maid Knight

Chapter 277 The fish is delicious, so it’s worth it
"All of them?" Keli's eyes widened, she lowered her head to think again, and said, "That seems to be true, Keli heard this big guy's voice, and she even said 'Thank you Keli'."

Keli squatted down and patted the rough surface of the Scorpio remains with her small hands.

"Keli returned her treasured things to her. Of course she has to thank Keli." Sima Weizhi said with a smile: "Not only Scorpio, everyone in the camp and people living in the Tokyo area must thank Keli." , if it weren’t for Xiao Keli, things would be a hundred times worse.”

"Really?" Keli was a little embarrassed when she heard the praise, "In Mondstadt, Keli always brings trouble to everyone. Hmm~ It feels good to help others. No wonder the brothers and sisters of the Knights like it so much. helping others."

Mie glanced at the behemoth at her feet. She still hadn't figured out what state Scorpio was in now. Thinking that researchers from Sima Heavy Industry would bring her the most comprehensive report later, Mie still focused on Scorpio. On Li.

"Kelly's reputation has spread to the other side of the ocean and to every human settlement in the world." Mie praised: "Kelly, who defeated Scorpio, is a hero to everyone in the human world."

"No, no, it's not just Keli herself, there are many, many people involved in the battle." Keli looked down at the wreckage below and said: "Scorpio was summoned by the bewitching demon. He didn't realize what she cherished. Before, she didn’t want to disturb everyone in Tokyo, right?
Just like Keli's best friend 'Duduke', if Douduke is captured by the Great Demon King Dudu, Keli will also challenge the Great Demon King Dudu! "

"Bewitch the devil?" This was the first time Mie heard this name.

Sima Weizhi whispered a few words into Mie's ear, letting Mie know the cause and effect.

Mie said: "Xiao Keli, Scorpio is one of the twelve signs of the zodiac. It was a big monster that almost destroyed human civilization in the past. For it, destroying a human settlement is a trivial matter."

"Huh?" Keli turned around and asked Gayemeng: "Is that so?"

Gayemeng nodded, "Keli, have you forgotten that Scorpio almost destroyed our camp? Many of our friends in the camp were injured by the earthquake it caused, and those in the city were even worse."

"Then, that big guy is actually a big devil and a bad guy?"

"That's not true~" Mie found the right moment to cut in, and said in a slightly bewitching voice: "Little Keli, do you know that once the erosion rate in our cursed son's body exceeds a certain limit, the gastrointestinal factor in the body will It will engulf many normal cells, and then break through the body surface, turning the host into a gastrula.

During the transformation process, our heads will also be swallowed by gastrea. The consciousness that exists in the head will become drowsy, or even disappear completely. We can no longer remember the past, and have become a person who only knows Horrible monsters that follow animal instincts. "

Mie looked at Keli. At this time, little Keli raised her head slightly and looked at her with innocent and pure eyes, as if waiting for her next words.

Very good, this is what Mie wants.

"However, some children's consciousness is particularly tenacious, and they retain some dull consciousness, which requires external stimulation to awaken some. However, the cursed children who can retain a trace of consciousness are generally powerful starters.

IISO has also done research on this aspect and believes that powerful starters have experienced many things and have stronger willpower, so they can retain part of their consciousness when they become gasterozoans. "

Mie paused, leaving some time for Keli to digest, and then seeing if Keli would ask questions.

'I wonder if Brother Abedo can find a way to separate their consciousness.' Keli said to herself in a small voice.

'Albedo? Mie immediately remembered this person's information. According to Keli, this person's skills were very impressive. He was a master of alchemy and his relationship with Xiao Keli was also very good.

Mie continued: "Did Keli think of any questions? For example, why did the twelve zodiac signs appear in the war more than ten years ago? Were there cursed children at that time? Then why more than ten years have passed. , none of the cursed children in the world have reached adulthood? How did the gastroenterovirus come about?"

"Ugh~" Keli said: "Didn't Sister Mie say it before? When the erosion rate in the body is too high, the partners will become monsters. The bad guys in humans will also set up a lifeline to prevent the partners from growing up. Sir. But Qiuzi’s father gave Keli a magical alchemy potion. After injecting it, and eating it together with the food that the traveler sister has cast magic on, the friends will not turn into monsters!"

Mie really wanted to pat her forehead. How come she almost got herself in?However, explaining the issue of "probability" to Keli is too complicated.

'It's really true to deal with children with pure minds' Mie thought for a while, but couldn't find any words to describe it.

However, she attaches great importance to the transformation potion. When Keli first appeared a few days ago, she was extremely interested in Keli's bouncing bomb. Who knows that the little doll bomb is better at dealing with gastrea animals? Metal works better.

It's a pity that Keli's bouncing bomb seems to have the blessing of another world, which the fish-lipped natives of the earth cannot understand and cannot imitate.

Later, the transformation agent missile launched at Scorpio gave her new inspiration.

Can the potion that even Scorpio can't hold up can replace the increasingly scarce phoenium metal?Or will it cause greater side effects?These require enough experimental samples and a long enough time to demonstrate.

"Little Keli, do you still remember what my sister said before? The gastrula animals in the eleventh and fifth stages of the zodiac are actually all transformed from the Cursed Son."

"Hmm," Keli thought for a moment and pointed to the Scorpio remains below, "After that big guy becomes a human again like Qiuzi, will Keli still call her sister?"

"Haha~ There is no specific research in this area. When Scorpio successfully becomes a human, my sister will study it with Keli."

Smiles appeared on everyone's faces. Who would have thought that Keli's thinking would always be so different?

Perhaps, Xiao Keli, who has a pure mind, will pay more attention to this kind of issue.

"Let's continue," Mie straightened his face and said, "Since the beginning of the Gasterozoa War, people have never stopped researching and discussing gastroenterovirus. People believe that gastroenterovirus comes from outer space, ancient ice, Mitochondrial variation and other directions.

Among them, the theory of mitochondrial variation has been recognized by many people. You must have heard the saying "human ancestors originated from the African continent", right?
Ten years ago, the total number of human ancestors reached 80 billion. It is said that they all descended from a woman in Africa.This is confirmed by cells called mitochondria, and that it can only be inherited in the female line.She is also known as 'humankind's earliest woman'. "

Keli's eyes were blank, but Penny listened very seriously. She asked, "Then why are there no records about the Cursed Son in ancient times or modern times?"

Mie said: "The name 'Cursed Son' is a product after the Gastrea War. There are no records of 'Cursed Son' in ancient and modern times. It is probably because no one has inherited the 'Cursed Son' Part of the mitochondria may have been inherited and not manifested. But you can find people and monsters similar to the 'Cursed Son' in some strange records in ancient and modern times. However, with the passage of time, wars, natural disasters, etc. , there are not many and incomplete records left to modern times.”

Mie stopped and waited for everyone to digest it, and suddenly smiled and said: "All of these are just some kind of theoretical statements. In addition to 'the earliest women of mankind', there is also the 'Aldi File'. If you are interested in those things, I will wait for you." Will be sent to you.

But this is secret information that can only be obtained by the top [-] in IISO. Please don’t leak it. "

Keli nodded, "It's no problem, Sister Mie. Keli will keep it in her schoolbag and keep it well. Dudu will be there to guard it, so no one can steal it."

Keli didn't understand much, but little Keli didn't care. There were many books in the Knights' library that she couldn't understand.The important thing is that what Mie is talking about involves the origins of her friends in the new world, so even if she doesn't understand, Kelly wants to remember it firmly.

Mie added: "Based on the hypothesis I mentioned earlier, the giant thing under our feet is undoubtedly a little girl who showed mitochondria and turned into a protozoa before the Gastrea War.

Keli, do you know why the treasure of Scorpio is called the 'Heritage of the Seven Stars'? "

"Hmm~" Keli shook her head, "Keli doesn't know."

"Because, the girl who became Scorpio is the child from Qixing Village."

"Seven Star Village?"

"Yes, it is located in the northern part of Nagano Prefecture, Yingzhou." Mie said: "After the girl mutated, the local government took it over, and then a large-scale outbreak of gastroenterovirus made us a curse. His son has become a part of human society that is discriminated against."

"Ah?" At this point, Keli finally understood a little bit, "It turns out that the big bad guy was from a long, long time ago! Oh~ Then if we find it and destroy it, everyone will be fine? No, no, the big bad guy's men are all over the forest. It would be difficult to eliminate them all."

Keli looked out at the lattice defense network formed by the Booms. The gasterozoans in the forest, which had suffered heavy casualties, still did not give up. Instead, more and more gasterozoans gathered. The colors on their skin made the whole area... The whole forest was dyed in a mess.

"Why do you want to say so much?" Penny tried: "For us, it doesn't matter whether we know this or not, right?"

Mie laughed and said, "It seems that my purpose was seen through by Penny-chan."

Mie said to Kelly: "Gene inheritance? Alien virus? Ancient virus? Man-made virus? These are not things we can decide, but similar factors flow in our bodies, and they are also the targets of suppression and discrimination by mainstream society.

We are clearly at the forefront of evolution, but because we are young and have little experience, we cannot truly unite together.

They fear the power we wield.

Keli, I wanted to build a Cursed Son. No, no one dared to call us Cursed Son at that time. Maybe it would be better to call us 'Chosen Son'.I want to build a new era that belongs to us, an era where children with gastrointestinal factors in their bodies will no longer be oppressed, no longer have enough to eat, and no longer have to wear warm clothes.

We are on the front lines against gastroenterates, paying the price with our lives to protect human habitats, and we deserve the best! "

"The best is not necessary," Penny crossed her arms and curled her lips and said, "It would be good if we can fully integrate into human society."

"Penny-chan, this is wrong." Mie said with a smile: "Don't talk about us cursed children who may turn into gastral animals at any time. Before the gastral animal war, wasn't the racial issue properly resolved?
With our identity, the price we pay for integrating with them is a hundred times heavier than the price we pay for leading them! "

Penny frowned and thought, it seemed that this was really the case, but the always cautious Penny added: "You are from America, and you are from the upper level of America's pyramid. Who knows if you represent America and use us as a tool? Use it to obtain the Tao mine in Yingzhou. When we have no use value, we will be abandoned."

"Because I am also a cursed child!" Mie widened her beautiful scarlet eyes. This young lady from the military-industrial complex felt her emotions fluctuate for the first time. "Didn't I say it before? I've tasted it too. That feeling of being discriminated against! I have also seen the struggles of my 'companions'!
Now I am indeed living under the protection of my parents, but my parents will leave me sooner or later. What will I do then?
Others say they don't care about your identity as the Cursed Son. I know, I know everything. They are just afraid of my father's power!

but me!He is a cursed child!At the same time, I have better resources than my 'companions'. I am doing it for myself and for my companions, let's fight for the possible future of 'us' together! "

Kelly pulled back slightly, startled by Mie's sudden outburst.

Penny still had the same frown on her face, and she couldn't tell whether Mie was showing his true feelings or acting impromptu.

Mie calmed down for a moment, and the familiar smile reappeared on his pretty face, and said: "We are the evolvers among humans. We broke the fangs of gastrula for humans. We deserve to be respected by people, and we sit on a more advanced platform." Match the position we pay for.

This is correct, right? "

Keli thought about it carefully and said, "Yeah, hard work will be rewarded. Keli thinks Sister Mie is right. Just like Keli, every time she goes out on a big adventure, she wants to find lizard tails to make explosives. Explosives are used to make bouncing bombs. As long as Keli finds the lizard tail in her adventure, the bouncing bombs she creates can be used to fry fish!
Keli will cook the fried fish into grilled fish. Although being caught by Captain Qin will mean a whole day of confinement, the fish is delicious, so it is worth it. "

Mie's eyes lit up, "What Keli said is very clear, we must have rewards that match our efforts! But on the way to get rewards, we may encounter unexpected events like 'imprisonment'."

"But Penny-chan, have you figured it out?" Mie turned to the little Lolita with super long hair on her head, "Compared with the risks we are facing now, what is just 'confinement'?"

Penny said nothing, and Mie made it clear that the risk to the Cursed Child now was nothing more than the possibility of death at any time, and the "confinement" in Mie's mouth was nothing more than death.

It is death anyway, and dying on the road to gain respect and rights is far more worthwhile than dying in the battle against the invasion of gastroenterates in order to protect humans!

"Like Kelly, I also like to eat fish."
