Chapter 260 The Nature of Living Things



Ding Youran waved her hand, signaling them to stop shouting.

"Behead these rebels in public!"

He glanced at the corpses lying on the ground with spears piercing their heads.

Then he said to Zouping:

"From now on, I grant you the name Dingzi!"

Zouping didn't feel much about this name, but the other spirit corpses all looked shocked.

The Ten Kings were named after the Ten Heavenly Stems, and their generals were named after the ten Heavenly Stems plus the twelve Earthly Branches.

Under each king, there are twelve generals. These people are people that the spirit corpses at the bottom of the corpse demon world need to look up to.

Ugly does not mean ranking second, but the wisdom is born at the Ugly hour!

However, when these twelve powerful men became a symbol, the twelve Earthly Branches no longer served the purpose of marking birth dates.

But it can be replaced by someone stronger!

Or if someone dies in battle, the King will promote one from among the other corpse demons to directly replace his name without considering his birthday.

Therefore, although Zouping, who was possessed by 0735, should be named Ding Chou, as the first follower of Ding, he was given the name of Zi!

Zouping also learned about this rule from Zero Seven Three Five. Although he didn't feel it deeply, he could see the weight of this title from the expressions of other zombies!

If Ding is really Ding, then he will become a high-ranking zombie!

With this identity as a cover, his hiding can be said to be a great success!

It will be much easier for him to harm these zombies in the future.

While he was still thinking about how to use this identity, the other spirit corpses had already saluted him:

"Greetings to His Majesty Ding Zi!"

A group of spirit corpses bowed and knelt to welcome Ding and Zouping into the city of Bianzhou.

Afterwards, those famous people were hung on the highest point of the city wall and beheaded in public!

No zombie dared to plead for him. Of course, the zombies were also not united internally. During the hundreds of years without a leader, they had fought each other.

How could he plead for other zombies now?

Ding established his authority with thundering means. Regardless of whether he was really the king, these spirit corpses did not dare to betray him easily.

In the meeting hall.

He sat at the top, and Zou Ping stood behind him, apparently becoming Ding's confidant.

Below, those with titles stood, while other ordinary spirit corpses stood further back.

"Tell me about the general situation over the years."

He was reborn by fusing with a spirit corpse with a drop of blood. Although he gained the spirit corpse's memory, the fusion process was resisted by the spirit corpse's consciousness.

There is some memory loss.

Therefore, when he saw Zou Ping, he didn't remember who he was for a moment.

Lingwu took the initiative to come forward and report. Regardless of whether Ding was truly reborn as the king or other spirit corpses took the lead, since he was already one step behind, he had to seek a position second only to the king.

His reports were slow but detailed.

From the beginning of the Great Silence, all the high-level corpse demons around them disappeared one by one between heaven and earth.

Some corpse demons were reduced to dust after holding on for a while.

Only these weakest corpse demons who had just awakened their intelligence could resist the erosion of the power of annihilation.

They have been afraid, fought, and traveled all over the place in search of the strong.

However, the world is too big, and with their strength, it is not easy to travel to every corner.

In the end, they accepted the result.

He also accepted the fact that his body was gradually decaying and on the verge of extinction.

It was not until 0735 brought the news of the appearance of living creatures that they rekindled the flame of hope.

......

"The night before you arrived, Shan Ling, Lu Er, and other thirty-seven spirit corpses led their war slaves and threatened to attack the living beings in the Bianshui military camp."

Lingwu's story made Ding very satisfied.

I couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

This little devil is very perceptive and capable, and seems to be worth training.

All of his former subordinates have died, and it is highly likely that the other nine kings who were on equal footing with him have also died.

It was also a coincidence that he was able to be reborn by a drop of blood.

Therefore, re-cultivating his confidants is one of the things he has to do.

"you."

Ding pointed at Lingwu and said:

"From now on, your name is Ding Chou!"

Lingwu was overjoyed and immediately kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"You two, follow me. Other little demons, gather all the war slaves! Form a formation and wait for my inspection!"

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the back of the conference room.

Zouping and Dingchou hurried to follow.

"Brother Ding Zi, please take good care of me in the future."

Lingwu, who had changed his name to Ding Chou, walked side by side with Zouping. He smiled gently, and Zouping was surprised. He had never thought that he would see such a gentle expression on the face of a zombie!

But think about it, these zombies have already awakened their intelligence, and apart from their red hair and bone armor, their behavior patterns are almost the same as those of humans.

It seems that we can no longer treat them as monsters without intelligence.

What is the essence of living things?

At this moment, he thought about this question.

Able to move?

What is death?

Brain dead?

He originally thought so, but now, he believes that as long as this body is still conscious, it cannot be considered a corpse!

Even if the previous consciousness disappears, as long as a new consciousness is born, it should be defined as a living being!

Undead creatures?

He felt that the statement of being dead and alive was not accurate. It was either dead or alive, so how could it be half dead and half alive?

Therefore, these corpses did not develop intelligence before the Five Stars, so even if they can move, they cannot be considered living beings.

However, after reaching the five-star level of spiritual intelligence, it should be treated as a different kind of creature!

Just like robots, robots without consciousness, although they can move and handle many tasks, they are not living beings.

But once they develop self-awareness, they should be recognized as living beings!

But whether these zombies are living creatures has nothing to do with him now. What he needs to care more about is what Ding asked him to follow?

He has been looking for an opportunity to transmit the information back. The resurrection of such an ancient demon king must not be treated as any other ordinary zombie.

However, ever since he met Ding and gained his trust, he was asked to stay close to him, leaving him no time to pass on information.

Ding Zi beside him was trying to show his goodwill to him, but he didn't appreciate it at all. Instead, he said coldly:

"Serving His Majesty with all your strength is what you should do. Why do you need me to take care of you?"

His words startled Ding Chou, who immediately apologized with a smile, "That's right. You and I are both servants of His Majesty the King, and we will die for His Majesty!"

Having said that, he sneered in his heart, this Zero Seven Three Five is so scheming!

Ding, who was walking in front, also heard the conversation between his two new confidants behind him. He didn't say anything, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Even though he was once one of the most noble beings among the corpse demons, he was suppressed for hundreds of years and almost completely annihilated, and his former ambitions were greatly weakened.
