Heh. ()]
In the majestic palace at Yotonheim, the female [King] Lilisse, who was sitting on a throne, let out a soft cold snort. The hexagonal crystal that was used to observe the movements of Zero and Agatha had already lost its prey in her long and narrow phoenix eyes. Lilith, as King of Yotonheim, knew the whole kingdom and the surrounding territories well, which was in the interest of her permanent ability to "see" the whole territory. She could guarantee that no living creature would be able to sneak into Yotonheim through her eyes.
Otherwise, Zero and the others wouldn"t have been noticed by Lilisse if they were hiding in the truck.
However, Clear Vision also had its own limits. At this moment, Zero and Agatha had already broken away from the limits of Insight, so they were temporarily out of Lilisse"s field of vision. In the face of this situation, Lilisse could only gather her living corpses for a carpet search. After forcing the two of them out, he would then send the Youtanheim high-ranked zombie warriors to attack.
Zero and the others didn"t know that the system of biological weapons in Yotonheim was far from the ones they had seen in the academy city.
After issuing a few commands consecutively, Lilisse felt a little tired. She sat on the throne and slowly closed her eyes.
How long had it been? How long had he been alive?
Lilisse asked herself softly in her heart.
Time was meaningless for living corpses, low level living corpses did not have enough intelligence to think about this. Even if they were high level living corpse weapons, their minds were filled with techniques, not thinking about their own lives. Only Lilisse, and only Lilisse, had such thoughts that were similar to that of a human"s.
Lily was a live corpse, but at the same time, she wasn"t a live corpse.
He didn"t know when the memories were formed, but after gaining the ability to sense her domain, Lilisse started searching for the source of her memories. At first, the memory center was empty. However, as Lilisse became more and more powerful, color started to appear in this blank s.p.a.ce. Lilisse remembered that a long time ago, she was once a human female.
The memories regarding the human race were broken and chaotic. Even if Lily were to split the memories into countless independent data and then reconstruct it through logical judgement, what recovered from it was only a blurry past. She only vaguely knew that she was a white-collar lady with an imperfect home, but everything was still fine. However, the advent of the Cataclysm had caused everything to change.
The clearest memory of that time was of Lily standing in front of the window of a tall building, shooting out giant fireb.a.l.l.s one after another from the sky that was spewing wind and fire. One of the fireb.a.l.l.s landed in the city where Lilith was, and then there was total darkness.
It was unknown how much time had pa.s.sed before Lilisse was able to regain her senses. In the memories that followed, Lilisse could feel that there wasn"t a single ripple in her thoughts at that time. Like a machine covered in human skin, she tore apart the fragile bodies of humans with her mutated fangs and fangs, eating up their flesh and blood. Just like that, Lily went through the most difficult decade.
It was the memory of Lilith as a living corpse, the fragments stored in her nerve center, with no emotion of Lilith"s own in them at all, pure as a doc.u.mentary.
In the doc.u.mentary, ten years after the transformation into a living corpse was nothing, but it was an extremely long hunting record. In these fragments, the humans who survived until then were not strong, they were like fat rabbits. During the first five years, Lilith could easily hunt down humans. But over the next five years, it became harder and harder to hunt.
Although human evolution is the slowest of all evolutions, once they have completed a certain stage of evolution, the genes become very stable and unbreakable. Unlike living corpses or other mutated organisms, they had to pay an unimaginable price to evolve at a high speed.
In the case of a live corpse like Lilith, the radiation and virus infection that caused the genetic mutation allowed them to continue living even though they were dead. Life and death became vague on them, and the price of living corpses was partial brain necrosis. Their only remaining brain function could only provide them with the instinct to survive. Although there were two mutated forms, the butcher and the Ripper, on the evolved corpse, they couldn"t escape the essence of the living corpse"s low intelligence.
No matter how strong a wild beast was, if they didn"t have intelligence, it was only a matter of time before they were hunted down.
The living corpses had once flourished after the Cataclysm, and they were the first creatures to adapt to the post-Cataclysm world and survive. However, this period of time only lasted five years. Five years later, humans armed with weapons from the old era would have the power to fight them. Other creatures were trying their best to evolve, but due to the limitations of their intelligence, all living corpses that followed their instincts seemed to evolve at a very high rate.
As a result, another fatal flaw of the living corpse was revealed, it was the rapid aging process!
A living corpse is not an eternal motive. Its genes, cells, and bodies age, and are many times faster than humans or other organisms, perhaps even dozens of times faster. The powerful butchers and lacerators in the living corpses only lasted about ten years. As for the ordinary living corpses, they ranged from five to eight years. Once they entered the age limit, their entire body would be rapidly defeated. They would not need to be attacked by humans for a year or two, and they would become actual corpses as well.
Five years after Lilisse became a living corpse, even though she didn"t have intelligence, her instincts told her that she had already entered an age of aging. Lilisse was getting old. Her strength, agility, and physical toughness were regressing rapidly. At that moment, she heard a voice.
When the current Lilisse was flipping through her memories, she realized that it was not so much a voice as an instinctive call. Regardless of whether it was the voice or the summons, the Lilisse of that time, under the control of her instincts, used this dying corpse and still crossed the earth to reach the place where the voice wanted her to go. That was a crazy day. Lily was simply running against the laws of time and death. She usually ran without eating or drinking for more than ten days, stopping only when her body was close to its limit.
When she had eaten her fill, Lilisse would make another long journey. Lilisse would travel thousands of miles every time she went on a journey like this. By the time they arrived at their destination, Lilisse was already close to death.
However, there, Lilisse came across many different kinds of mutated beasts. Other than humans, almost all the other races would have one of their own here. Just like Lilisse, they were also summoned by the same existence. When all the summoned life had arrived, the volcano erupted.
Different from the living mountain that had been active for a long time behind Yotonheim, in Lilisse"s memory, that nameless volcano burst out in a desperate fas.h.i.+on. Flames accompanied the lava for thousands of meters, and hot air and thick smoke filled the entire sky. Magma that had been sprayed up to a thousand meters splattered down from the sky in a parabolic pattern, bringing up countless flaming meteors that wreaked havoc across the land.
Countless mutated beasts had died in this natural disaster that had suddenly erupted. However, those who survived could sense that something had entered their bodies.
Lilisse survived the calamity of a volcanic eruption, but she also lost an arm because of it. However, to her, who was on the verge of death, such injuries were negligible. However, after she felt something invading her body, Lilisse"s body underwent an earth-shattering change!
