And when the leaves begin to turn yellow and fall, the first newborn in autumn will be regarded as a symbol of luck by everyone. He and his family will be blessed and respected by everyone... This is Why are most people gathered here at this time? Because they are anxiously and expectantly waiting for the birth of the lucky man.
To be honest, there is nothing wrong with such a custom.After all, before civilization develops to a certain limit, sufficient newborns will always be a symbol of positivity.No ruler would dislike having too many people on his territory, and no one would not wish that he could have a few more family members.
But encountering this kind of place at this kind of time... This inevitably made Kevin have a bad feeling in his heart.
Just as the Immortal Boat Alliance's behavior of hunting fertile animals is very consistent with the destiny of "hunting", the customs on this small island are undoubtedly very consistent with the concept of "breeding", as if they were tailor-made for him. Customized like a group of believers.
But no one has ever guaranteed that He will treat them as kindly as the "Hunter" treats the Immortal Boat Alliance, right?
In other words, His definition of friendliness is completely different from that of species like humans...
With an uncontrollable feeling of uneasiness in his heart, Kevin, dressed in white, finally walked through the crowded corridor and arrived at the door of the post that his character should hold.
"Quick! Quick! Get the tools ready, Ms. Melchiez is about to give birth! Where is that guy Heba, why hasn't he come yet!"
Kevin had just stood in front of the door when he heard shouts and chaotic collisions.And when he opened the door a moment later, the doctor in charge of delivering babies in the center of the ward immediately scolded the character he represented.
"Where did you go? Why are you back now?! Come here quickly, we don't have any time to waste now. If nothing goes wrong, this year's lucky one will be born in our ward! "
In the only hospital on this backward island, it is obvious that there are not so many detailed department divisions.What kind of patients a doctor can accept depends entirely on what kind of diseases he can treat.
Delivering newborns - this is obviously an essential skill for every doctor on this island.As the first newborn born in autumn, it is obvious that not only his family will receive benefits, but the doctor responsible for delivering the baby will also gain a lot of fame.
"Relax, Ms. Melchiez, relax... Please trust my skills. I have delivered at least 100 children in my hands. I swear there has never been a child or mother among them. Something unexpected happened.”
"And your child, as the first lucky one born, will definitely be favored by the gods. In the future, he may be able to leave this closed island and go to a wider world... That is something we old guys can't even imagine. Things I don’t dare to think about!”
After reprimanding his student, the doctor began to skillfully comfort the pregnant woman, and at the same time, he also began to skillfully comfort the fetus in the other woman's belly - strangely, the child was more lively than he imagined.But this is nothing, he has seen weirder situations than this!
Kevin, who was called by the doctor to give him a hand, could clearly see the complicated expression on this lady's face, which was a little nervous but mixed with joy... The rather young-looking face could probably It turns out that she is becoming a mother for the first time, so she naturally looks very nervous.
As for the joy...for a mother, is there anything more joyful than that her child can become the only lucky one on the island this year?
But for Kevin, as the scene here seemed more warm, the anger in his heart became stronger, even if his surface emotion did not change at all.
He couldn't even remember how long it had been since he felt such anger.
Because the moment he stepped into this ward, he had already clearly noticed the physical abnormalities of this pregnant woman. Even if he did not have the ability to see directly, his keen perception allowed him to notice it. The life activity in the other person's body.
Even though he couldn't be sure what kind of situation it was, one thing Mu Yong doubted was that it was definitely not a human newborn.
The so-called "breeding"...is this the destiny he represents? !
Chapter 236 The Birth of the “Newborn”
At the same time, the doctor and the girl obviously did not realize what would happen next that would subvert their worldview.Even though midwifery has reached the most difficult and dangerous stage, no one feels pessimistic about it.
Finally, the operation soon reached the final stage of delivery - this process was a hundred times smoother than the doctor had imagined. It was almost as if he had just prepared for the first newborn to be born this fall. The child fell into his hands.
But when he took a clear look at the 'child' being held in his arms, the original smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and turned into a look of unbelievable horror.
The emotion of fear took root in his throat like a sharp thorn, causing him to keep struggling and trying to shout out, but to no avail, he could only let it continue to distort his face.
The next second, the harsh cry took his place and announced this moment to the surroundings——
"——————!"
Although it sounds very much like the cry of a human child, in the final analysis, both the way it occurs and what it represents no longer have the slightest connection with the human species.
Regardless of whether this is a punishment from the gods or something else, the only thing this doctor can be sure of is that it is best not to let anyone else know of its existence...even if it is misunderstood as a newborn baby So is the child who dies immediately afterwards!
boom--!
Unfortunately, before he could take action, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and several people rushed in.
Obviously, they are all relatives of this Ms. Melchiez.When they learned that their child would be the only lucky one this year, they were naturally as happy as that mother.
It's a pity that this joyful emotion has not been born for long. When they broke into the room, they noticed the foreign object being held by the doctor - no matter from any angle, it did not look like a normal newborn. Son.But the source of the cry and the doctor's actions proved accurately that this was the newly born child.
Before they even had time to feel disbelief or sadness, they heard cries one after another instantly reverberating throughout the hospital.
The first cry seemed to set off the incident - the dozens of cries in the hospital seemed to represent the hope of new life, but when you realize the truth of the matter, you will Subconsciously, I felt a chill running down my spine.
Even if they don’t know that these weird bugs are the newborns born to pregnant women this time, anyone can’t help but feel a strange sense of fear just when they see these bugs that are as big as the palm of their hand and make the cry of children. .This has nothing to do with courage, it is entirely a rejection from the genetic level.
But such a situation that no one had imagined happened in front of everyone, and it was so terrifying that most people wanted to think that it was just a real and terrifying nightmare.
But the fact is, it is the fact after all...
"Child...let me hold my baby..."
Just when everyone was being frightened into silence by the scene in front of them, the mother's light shout suddenly rang out in the room filled with cries.
At this time, she was in a state of extreme exhaustion because she had just given birth. It was extremely difficult for her to even tilt her head while lying on the hospital bed.But even so, she still tried her best to stretch her palm forward, trying to touch the child who she could not yet see.
The doctor who really didn't know how to respond had no choice but to make this decision - he carefully held the strange thing in his palm, trying to make the mother realize the situation.But before he could raise his palm to a certain height, he saw that the insect body in his hand, which was still stained with a lot of mucus, suddenly twitched a few times, then fell from his palm and fell to the ground.
Snapped--!
Any creature in this world, whether it is egg-laying or viviparous, their babies are always extremely fragile at the moment of birth.
But at this moment, the insect in front of him completely shattered this conclusion.Not only did it not suffer any damage as it fell on the ground, it actually seemed to have truly come to life. It got rid of the sticky teeth on its body in a few twists, and then suddenly opened the elytra on its back——
In just the blink of an eye, it had already risen into the air, smashed the glass on the side and flew into the sky, disappearing in an instant.
At the same time, the 'newborns' in other wards also kept up with the pace of this 'newborn'. They rushed to smash the glass and doors and windows and flew into the sky, as if they couldn't wait to escape them. The place where I was born.
Seeing that the terrifying creature finally left the field of vision, everyone in the ward breathed a sigh of relief.Only the young mother was still trying hard to stretch out her palms to grab at the window. Now she only knew that it should be the child she gave birth to.
And now the ending is that her 'child' chose to leave her mother without hesitation.
But now that things have developed to this point, no one will care about this mother who should be the happiest person today.
Ignorant people prayed to the gods in fear, hoping that He from above could grant forgiveness; cowardly people rushed blindly and spread fearful thoughts to everyone; people who knew quickly gathered together in an attempt to discover the true nature of this disaster. The inducement——
But without exception, they are constantly deceiving themselves that this is just a temporary demon, and the reborn children will soon dispel this fear that should not exist.
Such naive thoughts continued until...the moment another 'newborn child' was born.
What's even more absurd is that they began to discover that not only humans, but also domestic animals and wild beasts, the newborns they gave birth to began to look terrifying - they imitated the cries of their mothers, but their shapes were all Weird arthropods.
How is this just a disaster?It is simply the coming of the end of the world!
From now on, most people can only lock themselves in their rooms and keep praying that everything outside is just a terrible nightmare.There are only a few people who still have fighting spirit, and they try to find a way to survive from this disaster.
But no matter what, everything is just in vain...
Chapter 237 The insect tide is overwhelming!
pat--!
With such a clear crisp sound, an insect that was originally flying in the sky was suddenly frozen into frost and fell straight down, hitting the barren ground in front of Kevin.
It has only been one day since the horrific scene in the hospital yesterday, but Mandalay Island is already covered with footprints of various insects.
Although they vary in shape and size, and have many differences in appearance, they always have one thing in common - they belong to the order Coleoptera.
Even though their birth and shape completely violate the laws of nature, it still cannot change the fact that they are still very fragile when they are just born as larvae.So at this moment, these swarms of insects are constantly searching for food that can be eaten anywhere on the island, even trees and grass are completely unwilling to let go.
Theoretically speaking, it would never be possible for such a terrifying creature to evolve in nature - they reproduce at an alarming rate, are highly aggressive, and can even digest most of the food... After all, if they are in the ecosystem The natural cycle is broken, and all living things, including themselves, have no chance of survival.
But unfortunately, such an apocalyptic situation happened on this island.
However, although these insect swarms dominated by primitive hunger will eat anything, even when facing groups of wild beasts, they will surge forward regardless of damage until they eat everything in sight. Only when you have eaten all your food will you give up...
But if anyone is nearby at this time, they will be surprised to find such a scene - those swarms of insects that dare not hesitate to rush forward and kill them to death are strangely surrounding Kevin. A gap with a radius of more than ten meters was bypassed.
Even if some bugs are inevitably squeezed into the swarm by their companions behind them, they will immediately rush back to the swarm screaming, as if there is some creature there that scares them to the extreme. Their uncontrollable fear even makes them disobey. Without the original restlessness, I dare not approach there at all.
All of this is naturally because Kevin unscrupulously exudes pressure to the surroundings that only some animals with keen senses can clearly detect.For the time being, he didn't want to focus on these inexhaustible insect swarms.
Even if his time is enough for him to clear away most of the insect swarm, if he cannot solve the problem from the root, then it will be completely meaningless no matter how many he kills.
In the center of the insect tide, Kevin, who frowned, walked step by step towards the insect he had just captured - this was the 'child' born to that mother, and the entire Mandalay Island. The first bug you pick up is never wrong.
As early as the moment it was born, Kevin's senses were locked on this bug. Unless it could escape directly from the planet, it would be impossible to escape his lock anywhere.
In just one day, the originally palm-sized insect had grown to the size of a real infant, and the speed of development was simply unbelievable.Even its vitality is equally terrifying. Even if Kevin accurately controls the temperature of the ice, he can still see that the insect body is still very active and its limbs are twitching from time to time.
After successfully catching it in his hand, Kevin gently placed his palm on the outside of the ice cube and began to silently feel the conditions inside the insect's body.
But no matter how hard he tried to understand, he could only feel that the organs in its body were obviously insect-like.Such a creature has nothing to do with the so-called "human" from any angle.
But since it is a creature conceived with a human mother, it should have more or less human characteristics remaining in its body... And based on the process of time, when "breeding" When the Star God came to the world, the baby in that mother's body should have been conceived long ago.
That Taizyuros quietly transformed human larvae into insect forms, and even no trace of the original body could be found in them. This was obviously completely out of the scope of science.
But even from other angles, Kevin could not feel at all what kind of strange energy remained in the insect body, which caused the original human child to look like this.
It's as if... the power of "The Path of Breeding" has completed this transformation in some higher-dimensional way.As a mortal, Kevin is not even qualified to detect its root cause.
At least one thing is beyond doubt - the thing in front of him has been transformed into an insect body from the inside out. Unless Kevin can completely control the body almost miraculously, it will be impossible to restore it in any case. to its original appearance.
"Um......"
As soon as he thought of this, Kevin closed his eyes slightly.Then he patted the ice cube gently with his palm, and it and the insect body in it were instantly shattered into fine ice crumbs all over the ground, crystal clear.
So, what should he do to prevent this disaster?
Perhaps in the deduction of the "simulated universe", all this is just an unchangeable past that happened thousands of years ago... But Kevin never wants to believe that dying in the insect wave is The fate this planet deserves.There must be some way to make this all turn around...
Kevin lowered his head and meditated while slowly walking forward, but he didn't notice at all that the insect swarm beside him was scurrying and multiplying rapidly as if the fast forward button had been pressed... .But Kevin himself kept moving forward in this overwhelming black storm.
That's right, maybe it's to save its own algorithm, or maybe it's because he's afraid that Kevin will really do something extraordinary - in short, the fast-forward button is pressed once again for the operation of "Simulated Universe".It even picked the moment when Kevin was deep in thought, so that the other party was completely unaware.
And everything that happened in these days was summarized in this paragraph of text——
[Since the birth of the first 'bug', the number of newborns on Mandalay Island has reached an all-time peak; in the following days, they rushed out of the island, and 'bugs' began to appear in the sky all over the planet La Pole. tide'. 】
[Most of the people on Mandalay Island stayed in the hospital with the doctors for 21 days, until the planet Labol announced the global fall and requested interstellar support; when the transport ship arrived, you happened to be back near the hospital.You hear unusual whispers - they're telling a mad woman to get out; she won't open the door, and her windows are leaking. 】
Chapter 238 Distorted Spirit and Belief
When Kevin suddenly came back to his senses from that state of contemplation, he realized that he had returned to the door of the hospital without knowing when.
It seems that Kevin has nothing to do about the passage of all this.After all, this is not the flow of time in the conventional sense at all, it is just the "simulated universe" pressing a fast-forward button for its own deduction process - the real time scale has indeed only passed by that moment.
And the hospital in front of us is no longer as lively as it used to be.Teardown buildings and debris can be seen everywhere here, and the smelly blood and weird mucus are all around.
Most of the survivors had already evacuated under the cover of fire from high places. The remaining few personnel, after they were convinced that the woman would never open the door again, had already concluded that the woman was suffering from a mental disorder. They did not hesitate. He ran towards the transport ship not far away.After all, if it were just a few seconds longer at night, they would just be food under the insect tide.
At least from the current point of view, the power of technology can still overwhelm these insect swarms that only win with numbers. They cannot break through the outer perimeter defense of the spacecraft at all.After confirming that most of the personnel had been evacuated, the transport ship directly deployed its shield and sailed away from the sky against the dense swarm of insects.
Nowadays, apart from the storm and insect swarm, there are only two people left in this deserted city.
Jumping in from the window with a big hole, and looking at the figure for the first time, Kevin clearly realized that this was Ms. Melchiez from not long ago.
"Excuse me, doctor, have you ever seen my child?"
The mother was not surprised by Kevin's sudden arrival. She even seemed to recognize that Kevin was one of the people who had delivered her baby. Her originally dim eyes suddenly became a little brighter.
She tried hard to stretch out her bony palms and gesture a few times in mid-air, as if trying to make Kevin understand her consciousness: "You should have seen him, he...he was about this big when he was born. ...I don’t know, it should be this big...Sorry, I don’t remember much, he didn’t even look at me again and flew away..."
Kevin didn't know whether it was the shock of losing the child that made her become so crazy, or simply the power of "breeding" that distorted her senses, making her stubbornly believe that it was her child.
But no matter what the reason was that led to her current state, it was impossible for her to see her 'child' again.
Because just now, Kevin had erased the first insect born on this planet without leaving any trace.
Just when Kevin subconsciously wanted to look away, he couldn't help but notice the few pairs of small shoes scattered on the floor.
No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to make it for adults to wear at this size.And as for children...there are no longer any newborns in any sense of the word on this planet.
She has been locking herself in the house these days, just knitting the clothes her child needs; and the reason why she stays here regardless of the danger is just to look forward to her child coming back one day. .
From the perspective of any race, the greatness of the mother body is completely self-evident.The more emotional creatures are, the more mothers are willing to pay for their children. This is the temperature that this world should have.
"......"
So, when did things gradually evolve into this? Is this the so-called truth hidden by history?
Because humans ruthlessly slaughtered the insects, they began to be ruthlessly slaughtered by the insect tide. Kevin was even able to accept that ending, but in his heart he could not recognize and accept the scene in front of him.
Kevin has always believed that the so-called carrier of civilization does not necessarily have to be some kind of entity.Even though the entire planet has now fallen into extinction with only insect waves, it does not mean that the civilization on this planet will never end. The surviving people can still continue to rely on the stories of the past to sing and create. A civilization unique to them.
But what if this spirit is also distorted into something abominable and indescribable?
It's as if on this island where there is nothing left except love and loneliness, the original joy of reproduction has been distorted into such an abominable thing...
"I'm sorry, doctor, it's okay if you haven't seen me... I think the child will come back, as long as I wait a little longer... As you know, children are always playful , isn’t it?”
Perhaps taking Kevin's inexplicable silence as another attitude, the mother forced a smile towards Kevin and waved her palms.
