Wasteland Development Diary

Building 5, Room 3306, Mushroom Laboratory.

Zhou Yi's gaze was fixed on the center of the floor.

The large Stone Sac Mushroom had transformed into a cocoon, with a large number of white hyphae spreading in all directions, turning the entire room into a spiderweb world.

A faint fragrance permeated the room.

It smelled like tea mixed with wood.

The source of the scent was the Stone Sac Mushroom.

Zhou Yi saw a crack about 30 centimeters long appearing on the human-sized stone-like mushroom, running diagonally from top to bottom.

The crack was pitch black inside.

"Chairman, there's something inside."

Sun Chonglai whispered beside him, "But I'm not sure if it's 'that' thing."

That naturally referred to the Death Angel.

Zhou Yi first inquired with Emerald City.

Emerald City responded that there were no special circumstances in Building 5, only that the Stone Sac Mushroom had stopped absorbing consciousness, as if the process was complete.

However, because Building One possessed a massive number of consciousness entities, this loss had almost no impact on it.

"I gave it about 18,000 consciousness entities."

Emerald City said, "Commissioner, every architectural life has hundreds of thousands of consciousness entities; otherwise, it cannot awaken."

That was still quite a consumption.

Zhou Yi worried, "Is there really no damage?"

"None. The residents who move in will gradually form new consciousness entities, and now I have mastered a way to unify the consciousness entities, so only a few consciousness entities are needed to complete various actions."

Emerald City acted as if nothing had happened.

Confirming there were no problems there.

Zhou Yi suddenly thought.

18,000 consciousness entities.

The Heavenly Kingdom used the 'Arena' of the Olympic Sports Center, at the cost of the deaths of 35,000 mutants, to breed two Skywalkers. Calculated, the conversion rate was also about 18,000:1.

That is to say, an A-level life, if it doesn't have Xinqiu available, needs this order of magnitude of consciousness entities to expand itself in order to break through its existing limits.

According to mathematical deduction, what is hatching from the Stone Sac Mushroom in front of him should be an A-level Death Angel.

Zhou Yi activated [Alert].

Under the ability's perspective, the Stone Sac Mushroom showed a faint purple color, with the deepest color inside the crack.

It was indeed an A-level life reaction.

For safety's sake, Zhou Yi asked the Red Falcon to bring the Focusing Body next to the Great Buddha over.

He suddenly noticed that there was an eye in the crack staring at him.

He didn't feel any malice in the eye, more curiosity.

When Zhou Yi looked back, the eye immediately hid—or closed.

This Death Angel was quite shy.

At this moment, the tablet controller in his hand suddenly transmitted the Red Falcon's voice.

"Zhou, the Great Buddha is under attack by an external enemy."

"The Focusing Body is fighting with a suspected A-level life."

Zhou Yi immediately retrieved the real-time image from the front.

On the screen, Jionghe Cang was releasing straight green light beams, but the light blades that were enough to split the Dead Sea failed to cause enough damage to the enemy.

Opposite the Focusing Body was a white-clothed girl floating in mid-air.

The light blades constantly penetrated her body, cutting out numerous holes and gaps, but not a drop of blood flowed out.

The girl's body was self-repairing at an alarming rate, not only without scars, but even the white clothes could be restored as before.

Under the high-definition lens, the girl had smooth, clean white hair, but her pupils were amber red. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, but her face showed a joyful smile, as if she was enjoying the battle.

There was also a certain degree of spatial distortion around her.

Jionghe Cang was very afraid of the opponent and kept a sufficient distance from the girl, continuing to attack remotely.

The girl's voice clearly came from the tablet: "Don't block my way, Focusing Body."

"Or I'll eat you."

Sun Chonglai, who was peeking from the side, exclaimed and pointed at the screen, "It's her, it's her! She was the Death Angel who ate me back then!"

"She said that when a new Death Angel is born from her descendants, she will give me a gift to express her gratitude… She's back! She knows that a new Death Angel has been born here!"

Zhou Yi's heart sank.

He immediately said, "Let Wu Yi come over to watch this place, you guys be careful, I'll go take a look at the Great Buddha."

"Yes, Chairman."

Just as Zhou Yi was about to leave, the shell of the Stone Sac Mushroom beside him suddenly began to peel off piece by piece.

It seemed that the Death Angel inside was about to come out.

Zhou Yi had no choice but to change his mind: "Let Wu Yi go to the Great Buddha to support, I'll be there soon."

Sun Chonglai went out to call for someone.

Leaving Zhou Yi alone with the Stone Sac Mushroom.

As the dry, hard shell fragments continued to peel off, something slowly crawled out of the crack.

At first, it looked like a wrinkled butterfly, but its body gradually stretched out, becoming a black-haired boy wearing a black robe.

Zhou Yi was stunned.

Isn't the Death Angel in the form of a white-clothed girl?

What's with this black kid?

Could it be a mutation?

The boy looked thirteen or fourteen years old, about 1.6 meters tall, and exuded a dangerous purple light, representing that he was a genuine A-level life.

Perhaps because he was just born, the boy's eyes had a kind of clear stupidity, which reminded Zhou Yi of himself in his student days.

Zhou Yi carefully observed him.

This black Death Angel's black robe was not cloth, but a kind of hyphae that grew out of him.

His black hair was fluffy and soft, his pupils were black, and his face looked a little dull.

Zhou Yi asked him, "Can you speak?"

The other party paused, opened his mouth slightly, ahhed twice, and then finally said coherent words.

"Yes, I can, I can, I can speak."

It's just that the pronunciation and sentence breaks were a little strange, like a foreigner's accent.

Zhou Yi asked him again, "Do you know who you are?"

"Me, who am I?"

The other party murmured, "I am, who am I… I don't know."

He had a strong adaptability, and the pronunciation slowly became fluent.

Zhou Yi said to this newly born A-level life, "We hatched you here, originally thinking you should be another form… Do you know this situation?"

"I know."

The boy pointed to the floor under his feet: "I was born from here, this building is my parents, I am with you."

"What I am… I'm not very clear."

"What exactly am I…"

He crossed his arms and walked slowly around the room, falling into a state of contemplation.

At this time, Bone Man Sun Chonglai ran in from outside: "Chairman, Minister Wu Yi has rushed to support. Ah?!"

He was surprised to see the boy in the room: "This… isn't this a Death Angel? Why is it like this? Did the cultivation fail?"

Zhou Yi said unhappily: "You ask me, who do I ask?"

The Bone Man looked around and whispered, "Chairman, he looks a lot like you."

Zhou Yi looked at him.

The black-robed boy and he both had black hair and black eyes. If there were other similarities, it would probably be the skin, which looked healthier than the local New Humans, and it was difficult to say that the facial features were similar.

"What's similar?"

"Chairman, he looks just like you when you're thinking, you also like to walk around."

"…"

Zhou Yi glanced at the Bone Man.

He suspected that Sun Chonglai was afraid that he would kill this newborn Death Angel and wanted to use this method to build a relationship so that he would be merciful.

"You guys look a lot like me too…"

Sun Chonglai said again.

Zhou Yi then realized that the black-robed boy was also squinting at Sun Chonglai.

He didn't know if it was his subconscious imitation or a real coincidence.

Currently, this black Death Angel didn't show any aggressiveness or harm.

That's not right.

What's important now is the front-line situation!

Zhou Yi suddenly looked at the tablet screen.

Two A-level employees were already fighting the white-clothed girl.

In a 2-on-1 situation, the Death Angel still didn't lose ground.

She could quickly self-heal under the light blades, but she was somewhat restrained by Wu Yi's sand control lock. Whether in the Dead Sea, on land, or in the air, she couldn't completely isolate herself from the sand and would be bound and entangled by the free-floating sand grains.

With Wu Yi blocking her head-on, she couldn't cross the coast into the inland and approach Emerald City.

The girl had switched to a monster form, like a mushroom with white hyphae stretched out, except that there was a soft red eye in the center.

In the area close to her, the grass withered, and the trees and mushrooms were rapidly drying up and decaying, as if there was a deadly special force radiating around.

Just as she was fighting 1-on-2.

A huge arm suddenly descended from the sky and grabbed the girl in monster form.

It joined with an arm and locked the Death Angel in its palm. A large number of white hyphae frantically wrapped outward, trying to lock and cut off fingers and arms, but failed.

The surprise attacker was the Leshan Giant Buddha.

Zhou Yi saw the Great Buddha's combat posture for the first time.

The Great Buddha suppressed the Death Angel single-handedly but also paid a huge price.

Cracks began to burst out on its surface, as if it was under tremendous pressure.

The original White-Haired Monster gradually regained the girl form of the upper body, propped up the upper body from the palm seam, the light distortion made the Great Buddha outline blurred, as if some kind of force was frantically impacting and affecting it.

The Death Angel would cause life to die, and he didn't know if architectural life could withstand it.

Zhou Yi was a little worried.

Suddenly a voice came from the side.

"It's a kind."

The black-robed boy didn't know when, but he was also watching the scene on the screen.

"This… I know."

He pointed to the girl on the screen and said, "She will extract life to replenish and strengthen herself. This ability is very dangerous, as long as it is life, it will be injured."

Zhou Yi's heart suddenly froze: "Is there a way to deal with it?"

"I can."

The boy said, "My ability is the opposite of hers."

"I can treat and repair broken consciousness entities, and become stronger from the consciousness feedback from the treatment."

"I can heal this big stone."

Zhou Yi was a little surprised.

The Death Angel of the white-clothed girl type creates death, while the black-clothed boy type is saving lives and helping the wounded?

It looks like two different branches.

He immediately said, "You come with me."

"Oh."

Then Zhou Yi activated Emerald City Building One and took the boy to the front battlefield.
