Chapter 1371: Tail
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In short, at that time, the Turan people were immersed in the ecstasy brought by the so-called continuous “victories”.
They did not realize that the “victories” achieved with fists, swords, and the help of the spirit magnet from the tusks and claws were just rookies pecking at each other.
In particular, when the Turan people and the totem beasts were engaged in close combat and fierce battle, causing blood to flow and broken limbs to fly everywhere, the spirit magnet would also stimulate the Turan people’s brain nerves and endocrine system. It would release a large amount of adrenaline
and enkephalin, allowing the people of Turan to gain an indescribable pleasure from the crazy killing.
And this pleasure also created an addiction that was extremely difficult to get rid of.
To put it simply, many experts in various fields did not originally plan to go the “warrior” route.
However, once they were ambushed by the totem beasts due to an accident, even they would have no choice but to pick up their weapons and fight. Moreover, they would allow a large amount of spirit magnets to invade their own flesh and blood.
When the lightning-like pleasure penetrated his brain, wrapped around his spine, and wrapped around his blood vessels and nerves, driving him to howl wildly, pouncing towards the beast tide, and cutting the ferocious beast into pieces, he would never be able to go back.
He would never be able to go back.
When he won the victory, put down his sword and knife, and prepared to return to his original job.
He would recall countless times the taste of the sword and knife, Invincible, and killing in all directions.
He would feel as if there were ten thousand ants crawling on his skin, crawling in his blood vessels, and sitting on the cold bench as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He would no longer be able to face the work that he was used to, but had now become dull and boring.
He would hear as if there was a surging sea of blood surging in his heart. There was a ball of burning flames. Deep inside every cell, a battle horn sounded.
If he did not pay attention to the sea of blood and the horns deep inside his heart, he would have a strong withdrawal reaction.
‘When it was serious, his joints would be sore, and he would not be able to control his tears and Snot. He would not be interested in anything other than fighting and killing anymore.
The phenomenon made many knowledgeable people realize the problem of the ‘spiritual magnet dependence’.
They tried every means possible to control the speed of the secretion of epinephrine and enkephalin.
But they soon discovered that no matter how hard they fought with the totem beasts, they would suffer all kinds of injuries, which would bring unbearable pain.
The spiritual magnet would stimulate the cells to speed up the division and proliferation, and when the combat effectiveness was enhanced, it would be the kind of torture that would make them reborn and live after death.
One had to secrete a large amount or even an excessive amount of adrenaline and Enkephalin in order to barely endure it.
Stopping the secretion of hormones that had the effects of excitement, hallucination, and a.n.a.lgesia would only cause one to die from the pain.
Then there was no other way.
The war was still going on.
Although the Tulan people had obtained an overwhelming advantage.
But the totem beasts were like insects that had a hundred feet, dead but not stiff.
It was also like the wild gra.s.s on both banks of the Tulan Lake.
Even if they set fire to the wild gra.s.s and burned it completely, when the next rainy season came, the Tulan River would flood and the flood would rampage, washing over the entire Tulan Lake. When the flood receded, the wild gra.s.s would once again grow out from the depths of the fertile mud.., like a
mycelium.
In order to completely win, the Tulan people could not stop using the spirit magnet.
Moreover, although it was highly addictive, the spirit magnet was different from ordinary hallucinogenic and a.n.a.lgesic drugs.
Ordinary hallucinogenic and a.n.a.lgesic drugs mainly relied on eroding the nerves to take effect.
It would cause serious harm to the human body.
Long-term users looked withered and haggard. They did not look like humans or ghosts. Even their internal organs were exhausted to the extreme, and a gust of wind could blow them down.
Apart from making people addicted to killing, the spiritual magnet did not seem to have any side effects.
On the contrary, it could stimulate the cell division of the human body, mutate genes, and accelerate the evolution of the Tulan people toward a higher, stronger, and farther direction!
In that case, what did it matter whether they became addicted or not?
To be addicted to killing, in other words, they were filled with the desire to conquer and the pa.s.sion to fight.
For the Tulan people who were preparing to show off their skills in the New World and conquer the habitable planet beneath their feet, wasn’t this an excellent quality that was worthy of praise?
Oh, it could not be said that there were no side effects at all.
Long-term use of spiritual magnets to bombard the gene chain, stimulate cell division and proliferation, and repair the body that was riddled with holes over and over again would still cause a little side effect.
The Otherworld was originally a world where all kinds of elements were extremely unstable.
Ancient bacteria and viruses from the Otherworld could easily bypa.s.s the immune system of outsiders and induce all kinds of strange diseases.
In the process of treating these diseases, the spiritual magnet had to activate the potential hidden in the deepest part of the outsider’s genes, “Fighting poison with poison.”.
The process of breaking through the limits of life was often a process of changing life forms.
In the end, the Tulan people had become more and more powerful, but at the same time, they also had a more and more primitive and barbaric appearance.
A large number of beast characteristics gradually appeared on their bodies.
They became more and more similar to the totem beasts they were fighting against.
Gradually, they changed from ‘humans’to ‘beastmen’.
Logically speaking, this discovery should have caused a huge uproar in the Tulan civilization.
However, the change from ‘humans’to ‘beastmen’was not completed overnight.
Instead, it took decades. It was achieved silently through the subtle changes of several generations.
A few generations was enough for the Tulan people to familiarize themselves with a brand-new appearance and a brand-new lifestyle.
Compared to the thrill of having explosive power coursing through their veins and nerves, as well as the strength of being able to blast apart the heads of ferocious beasts with bare hands, their bodies had a few more scales and feathers, and a few more horns grew on their heads, their canine teeth and
fingernails had become thicker, harder, and sharper… these costs were really not worth mentioning.
Moreover, the people with the most obvious mutated characteristics were those who had the highest degree of fusion with the spirit magnets. They were also those who controlled the most spirit magnets and possessed the strongest combat strength.
In the long-drawn-out Monster Wars, these unrivaled heroes, relying on their glorious battle records, rose to high positions one after another. They held authority and controlled resources, becoming important figures who could summon the wind and summon the rain, they had the right to define
‘civilization‘and ‘Human Beings.
When one out of 10,000 human beings grew a tail.
Those who grew a tail were monsters.
And when 10,000 humans grew a tail, 9,999 of them grew a tail.
Those without a tail were monsters and ‘‘non-humans’.
Those who relied on spiritual magnets to rise up in war and control the direction of civilization, and those who had the most obvious characteristics of Beast Transformation, simply had no motivation to push for the elimination of the ‘Beast Transformation Gene’, they wanted the Tulan people to return
to their original research.
Moreover, even if they had sufficient reasons and strong motivation, and were willing to spend a large amount of resources to carry out such research, they wouldn’t be able to find any researchers.
They wouldn’t be able to find any researchers either.
The glory of the Tulan civilization in the past had long been cut off. A large number of inheritances had been wiped out in the Deep Sea of history along with the death of the scientific researchers.
Even if there were people who wanted to regain their glory, they had developed a large number of beast-like characteristics, Their deformed and mutated limbs were no longer suitable to operate sophisticated instruments, design complex models, and carry out ma.s.sive amounts of data calculations.
The hand that held the sword could no longer tap on the keyboard or any information recording equipment.
The fist that could blow up the head of a ferocious beast could no longer pick up the fragile measuring cylinder and Beaker.
Now, the psychic magnet has helped the Tulan solve most of their problems in life.
Why go through with this thankless research?
As long as the Tulan body under the stimulation of the spirit magnet, become stronger and stronger, to the battlefield, should win the war, still win the war!
“Over millions of years of human evolution, our appearance has been constantly changing,”
“After all, the New World is different from the mother planet. Since we have crossed the Sea of stars and come to a brand-new home, we should be more open-minded and adapt to the new appearance and lifestyle. It is impossible for us to cling to the past and indulge in the ‘good old days’
“Besides, the ‘old days’may not be really good. We have developed a lot of fancy technologies on the mother planet, but it is precisely because of these technologies that the mother planet was plunged into a self-destructive world war. Isn’t that why we escaped
“If we continue to cling to the appearance and ideals of the mother planet, won’t we be doomed to repeat the same mistakes
“Maybe, the Tulan civilization of the mother planet has walked on the wrong path. The choice we are making now is the right one
“No, there is no ‘maybe’. It is a certainty. Can the Tulan people of the mother planet be as strong as we are now and blow the skulls of ferocious beasts that are as hard as iron into powder with a casual punch?”
The Tulan people were looking for reasons for their change.
Reasons were like urine.
As long as they wanted to squeeze, they could squeeze out a few drops.
With the support of many reasons, the Tulan civilization did not tum back. Instead, they accelerated the trend from ‘Human Beings’to ‘orcs’.
The denser the characteristics of the beast, the more worthy they were to be praised and the higher their social status would be.
Those ‘old-fashioned’who didn’t have a high degree of fusion with the spiritual magnet and weren’t even willing to fuse with the spiritual magnet and become beastmen were instead discriminated against.
Those who weren’t willing to become beastmen weren’t willing to obtain great power, weren’t willing to bear the responsibility of engaging in b.l.o.o.d.y battles with totem beasts, were cowards who only knew how to hide behind the Brave Warriors, and wanted others to send themselves to their deaths.., he
was a selfish person who only knew how to survive.
For the sake of the advancement of the Tulan civilization, such cowards and selfish people were not allowed to exist. Everyone should help these guys to taste the wonderful taste of the cells being wrapped by the spiritual magnet and the supreme pleasure of slaughtering ferocious beasts, help them to
speed up the process of transforming from ‘Human Beings’to ‘orcs’!
On second thought, it was not surprising that the Tulan civilization would experience such an ‘Accelerated Beast Transformation’.
Out of 10,000 people, 9,999 had grown tails.
No matter how much they bragged about the long tail representing the direction of evolution, the long tail represented powerful strength, how comfortable, convenient, and straightforward the long tail was, and how civilized, elegant, and beautiful it was.
The more they looked at the last person who didn’t have a long tail, the more they disliked him.
They had to let the last person grow a tail as soon as possible, even if it was just a fake tail, so that everyone would be happy.
