Become Supreme Will from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 257 The final order!

"The Demon King? Is it the legendary...monster that created the Dark Sonata? It actually exists!"

"What is this thing? An apostle?"

After a while, Anthony exclaimed.

Looking at the skeleton lying on the ground, it was incredible.

Because most of their previous information about the Dark Continent was just speculation, but now that it has been confirmed, their thoughts are inevitably messed up.

"Wow."

On the other side, at the entrance to the stone statue base, Men Qi covered her mouth and walked out with a pale face.

After marching outside, I couldn't help but bend over and vomit.

Lu was sure that there was no danger in the ground under the passage, so he asked Men Qi to explore it. As for what was hidden inside, he had already sensed it.

"Not an apostle...He can only be regarded as the devil's plaything at best."

Hazy said softly.

"Everyone, please sit down." Hao said with a serious expression.

The three heard the sound and sat on the ground.

On the one hand, my mind has not yet calmed down, and on the other hand, I am still frightened by the 'remnant music' I just heard.

If it weren't for Hagi to protect them, the three of them would still be unable to change the result of quick death even after such a long period of experience.

They seemed to have grown tremendously... but seemed particularly powerless at this moment.

"I have seen part of the truth about the Dark Continent... This place is both the Garden of Eden and the Magic Box. To be more precise, it is a large-scale genetic cultivation vessel." Word by word, Hazy recounted the scene he just saw in the memory of the skeleton. Come.

This made the pupils of Men Qi and the others gradually dilate.

"Not just humans, but all the species we have seen before, haven't you noticed...are they different from the creatures in the human world? Wildebeests have conchs on their backs...metal centipedes have hooves on their feet. These are all genes The result of evolution, in order to adapt to the environment, to adapt to the food chain... All species are changing all the time, and humans are the same. Unconventional mating, reproduction, and the creation of new life forms... Meruem is the representative. Humans are typical The lowest end of the food chain, not very powerful, but an advanced intelligent life form. This alone is enough to make humans the best genetic match. Chimera ants are just an inconspicuous creature in the Dark Continent, but combined with With human genes, we can create terrifying individuals like Meruem..."

Hazy explained slowly.

"If the lives we encountered before lacked thinking and had weak soul power, then... the ecological chain of the Dark Continent is gradually transforming from 'savagery' to 'civilization', which is the so-called intelligent creature, among which humans are crucial. An important part. Those subhuman races, including subhuman monsters, all came from this... Human genes were selected. In extremely ancient times, perhaps at the very beginning of this continent, they participated in the reproductive process. ', so much so that nowadays, many advanced life forms on the Dark Continent, including the Demon King... all maintain a certain human form. I even think that at least [-] to [-]% of the intelligent life forms on the Dark Continent are descendants of humans. '…”

"..."

The three of them were speechless.

It's not that they think what Long said is wrong, but... it's a bit beyond their imagination.

"As far as I can see from my memory... In addition to humans, other creatures are also constantly evolving and 'mating' based on instinct. But even so, humans still cannot change their weakness and still have to cling to some powerful creatures... Most humans are slaves or food of powerful species, and a few are able to partner with foreign races, or form unique ethnic groups and tribes. However, in the Dark Continent, there is an iron law, and that is power... Once you have human genes The species has gained intelligence and has become a super-dimensional life form... Strictly speaking, it does not belong to the human category. It needs to hunt more powerful food because it requires more life energy... Looking for better genes and following the The food chain, the instinct to evolve and reproduce, creates your own lineage. Countless genes are as vast as the sea of ​​​​stars on this land. In addition, the energy resources of this continent itself are rich and magical, so...it also makes the life forms here today, many Various and strange…”

"This is also the reason why human civilization once had a profound influence on the Dark Continent..."

"I know...that wheat..."

Anthony swallowed and thought of Ant King Meruem and Mai.

If a creature from the Dark Continent has feelings for humans, then this kind of thing will definitely happen in the Dark Continent.

After all, humans have existed for an incredibly long time.

"The ant king and wheat are not special cases."

Hajime nodded, because the thing inside Alluka and Killua were actually the same.

"The combination and evolution of genes are not limited to the physical body... Now, the Dark Continent is still evolving in this area, or it has never stopped. However, humans still cannot change the fact that they are weak, just like for chimera ants , humans are just a kind of 'food' that can optimize their own genes...or can provide good services and convenience of life to some other intelligent races, that's all. If humans want to survive, they can only choose a few paths here. , one is clinging, the other is evolving, giving up oneself. Or else it is escaping, escaping to a place where you don’t have to follow such rules..."

"So, the human world on our island in the lake is a primitive gene pool?" Gabvich rarely spoke, his scalp numb.

Is this the reason why creatures from the Dark Continent have never invaded the human world?

In a sense, protection is actually preserving the purest original genes?
"No...although they are primitive genes, they have been eliminated. The reason why the creatures in the Dark Continent do not go to our world is probably the same as what the captain said before. It is simply because the resources and energy are too poor. Since it is evolution, it must be selection. Good genes, and there are too many good genes on this land now... We purebred humans, except for the characteristic of 'intelligent creatures', have long been insufficient. But for some low-level life forms, they can't do anything Human beings are still a good choice for some kind of 'combination' with the intelligent species that have already established themselves on the dark continent. It's just a pity that most low-level life forms without sound thinking cannot think of this level, let alone Maybe go to our world..."

Men Qi echoed.

"High-level life forms are disgusted, and low-level life forms have no brains." Anthony summed it up concisely and concisely. "There is also an uncertainty here, which is 'emotion'. Human emotions are the same as chimera ants. Some powerful species can escape the instinct of the food chain and have feelings for the weakest humans... like Like the ant king.''

"Anything with wisdom... means exchange and communication. This may be the capital that humans still living on the mainland can survive... However, as the captain said, most humans are still domesticated animals. ...There may be some advanced beings who still have some feelings for humans, but I think they are very few. The characteristics of the Dark Continent and this environment will infinitely amplify biological instincts...More species will still perform hunting, submission, It is an act of preying on the weak and respecting the strong.”

"I'm afraid not many people have feelings..."

"Higashi Fulisi only wrote the eastern chapter of his journey to the New World. For him, he has never come back. There are two possibilities... First, he discovered the diversity of life energy on the continent and discovered the Asian species evolved from different genes. Human species, tribes, civilizations, etc., these are far more interesting than so-called disasters and hopes... because in a sense, they represent the possibilities of human beings. All species on the Dark Continent are given by humans. .Secondly, and most realistically, he can’t go back.”

He sighed softly: "This is what I want to say to you too..."

Men Qi and the other three realized something.

"Go back before it's too late."

"..."

"team leader!"

Anthony's expression suddenly changed, and he was about to speak when he reached out to stop him.

"It's not difficult to understand... From the moment we set foot on this land, we have been adapting to the ecological chain here, but we have not yet integrated, because integration requires evolution, and this evolution is not self-selected and is very passive. Continue to follow me. One day in the future, you may suddenly become a new life form... Do you remember that chimera ants can choose humans for cultivation? Turn humans into ants... Without our intervention, No. Bu's disciple Pom, she will also turn into an ant... She is lucky to be able to retain some of her human appearance. If she becomes different, we will never be able to return to the human world. Even if in a sense, we can still Live... but humans will not accept you. Think about v5's attitude towards the Dark Continent, and why Nitro explicitly banned humans from coming to this land... The old man may have noticed this. Looking at his decision now, it seems very strange. right."

"Because if the last few pure-bred humans also participate in 'evolution', then...human beings will truly 'disappear' and cease to exist. Of course, there may be pure-bred humans on the Dark Continent. I saw it in my memory... but it was difficult for them to survive. They were like ants who were simply being played with, unable to control their own destiny."

"If you become like this... let alone outsiders, I am afraid that your relatives and friends will not be able to accept it."

Hazy pointed at a few dead 'deformities' on the side.

"The gatekeeper is right to prevent humans from entering... It knows too well that pure humans need ethnic groups, compatriots, and social groups. Human beings cannot be separated from the original world for the sake of evolution. Back then, humans and some When creatures escape, they also voluntarily give up on 'evolution'. We are not that thirsty for power, it is just a desire to a certain extent, and it is simply not suitable for us here. History has proven everything."

"But...I might be an exception."

Hao closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he smiled suddenly: "Let's go, listen to me... Don't try to fight against instinct. You can choose not to evolve, but one day, when your survival is threatened, maybe you will Actively choosing to evolve is the truly terrifying thing about the Dark Continent. Once you choose to evolve, you will never be able to escape from here, let alone go back. It relies on the environment and its own rules, and will infect and teach everyone who sets foot on this place. creatures of the land.”

"When evolution can provide you with the power to transform yourself into a new person in order to survive, it will be difficult for you to refuse."

"Don't talk about you, even I...don't dare to say that I have full confidence and can grasp it."

"It was the wisest decision for our ancestors to leave here..."

"Higashi Fulisi...may not be able to go back. It's not that he doesn't want to go back...Of course, I haven't seen him either. This is just my guess."

"Go back before it's too late."

He rarely smiled at them, but this smile immediately made the three of them blush.

"Together we will…"

Men Qi's mouth trembled.

Hazy shook his head, "I have never come to this world for power, nor for relatives, friends, or humans. I am only for myself, so... this game in the Dark Continent has no impact on me. I originally thought that this first time The expedition is just a tentative one...you can go back and make preparations, but I didn’t expect that if you go too deep, it will be difficult to leave.”

"It was indeed my fault..."

"There's no point in me going back now because I'm definitely going to come back again... It's definitely a waste of time."

"I'll leave the human side to you..."

"I want to try to see if, as a pure human being, I can win without participating in this evolution... I want to conquer this place, I want to overturn the 'rules' of this continent!"

"Perhaps Dongfulis... thinks so too."

"With the most primitive and weakest genes, we set foot on the top of this 'gene cultivation place'."

"After you go back, remember to reach a consensus with v5 to prohibit humans from getting involved here."

"Perhaps, one day in the future, I will go back... If I haven't changed, I will meet you naturally. If I change... forget it."

"This is the last order I give you as your captain, and it is also a fatal order!"

"go back!"

Keep your appearance and essence as a human being and go back!
