"you say."
Zhang Hao slowly said, "As long as the conditions aren't too outrageous, I can agree to them."
Louis hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to save Mary's life, the one you captured alive in the welcoming party. After it's done... we'll leave Dawn City and go somewhere else, is that alright?"
"You want to protect her? Is she your wife? Do you other species also have male and female distinctions?" the eccentric doctor asked, puzzled.
"No, we don't, but we do have ways of mating."
Louis explained, "However, when our race chooses a mating partner, we generally do not choose one that is lower than our own level, because if a lower-level species mates with another species, the probability of producing a new species is very low."
"For example, if a level 9 and a level 8 hybrid species combine, the resulting hybrid species may be level 8. Here, level represents the upper limit of growth... not strength, but can also be called talent."
“No mutant wants a poor talent. Even if it is mated with a low-level mutant, if the offspring has poor talent... we will cruelly eat it and rebirth... until the highest talent is achieved.”
"Is it that perverted? Uh... no..."
The quack doctor was stunned.
This method of creation is almost like discarding defective products.
wrong!
To be precise, they don't even want medium or high quality.
They only want the best offspring, the one with the best talent, while those with poor talent are cruelly eaten by their "parents".
"Why? You just said that lower-level mutants can also advance to mid- or high-level mutants, right?"
Before Zhang Hao could ask,
The eccentric doctor, unable to contain his curiosity, asked a question.
"But breaking through the growth ceiling is very difficult. Just like in your human fantasy novels, each time you improve your talent, you have to pay a great price... And it's the same for us alien species. It's actually very difficult to do it with just flesh and blood."
Louis said frankly, "It's even possible that we only have one chance in our lives, so we certainly won't leave the opportunity to break through our talents for a lower level. We can only simply kill these undeveloped mutants."
"It's perverse and even unacceptable to you humans... but for us aliens, these are just the most basic principles of reproduction, engraved in our genes... unchangeable, and we're used to them."
"Moreover, we mutants only need flesh and blood energy to continuously advance... which is already extremely advantageous. And there is a chance for level nine mutants to mate with each other... to give birth to a superhuman mutant fetus."
“As long as there is enough flesh and blood, one can be promoted to a great figure like Poseidon. Even the number of level nine alien species that have descended on Earth is not that many… Therefore, I cannot abandon Mary. I hope Your Excellency can be lenient.”
"Okay, I promise you, I'll release you tonight, and tomorrow we'll start a gathering in your name to bring together all the alien species. Can you do that?" Zhang Hao asked.
“Dawn City is very large, and the alien species are scattered. Even I, at level nine, need to notify the other level nines. I must find a suitable reason.”
“It’s simple. Just say there’s a superhuman being here and let them come to greet us… Can’t that work?” Zhang Hao retorted.
“Absolutely. The level nine mutants can gather first and let them notify the other lower-level mutants, then you can make your move all at once.”
"Can."
Zhang Hao nodded slightly.
Then, he turned around and left the prison.
As the quack doctor walked along the road, he muttered to himself, "President, I feel like something's not right. This Louis is too cooperative... He tells us all sorts of information. I don't believe he could survive in the alien world after killing his own kind."
“But the information he provided is all true,” Zhang Hao said.
"ah?"
"Yes, none of them are lying."
Zhang Hao frowned.
He had dealt with other species in his past life.
Moreover, they are very well-informed; they actually know most of the intelligence.
The reason I let the doctor ask me questions earlier was to see if he was truly cooperating, but it seems that there are no problems on the surface.
But he always felt...
Louis seems to be hiding something.
As a person with extraordinary abilities, he was very perceptive... He noticed that the other person was very tense and not as calm as he appeared.
But it doesn't have a lie detector function.
What a pity...
It would be much more convenient if the strategist were here.
We can have the Dawn Society's technology department research a portable lie detector so it can be used when we're out and about.
Zhang Hao glanced at the quack doctor and instructed, "This operation may not go smoothly. This Louis is not as honest as he seems, but I don't know what he's hiding."
“You guys are all level nine ability users, so you can’t go in with me. Therefore, you’ll all stay outside… to cooperate with Li Wei from the investigation team.”
"What if something unexpected happens..."
"Eliminate the aliens as quickly as possible. If there are any unknown dangers... remember to prioritize your own safety!!"

P.S.: Xin Xin went out for a late-night snack yesterday.
I probably caught a chill and had a slight fever, but I feel a bit better today. I should have worn something thicker.
Waaah~~ Winter came so fast! It even snowed a few days ago! Thank you so much for the wonderful gift from the reader of "The Origin of the Last Bus"!
