Chaotic and colorful fragments of memory rushed past like a torrent.
Gradually, it is no longer limited to the spiritual world of companions.
The spiritual images of more people appear in the spiritual stream that surges like a long river.
That is the memory of the many humans who have explored this place.
Many of them are sentinels, and there are also ordinary people whose spiritual worlds have been merged into the spiritual sea of the Zombie Queen, and they remain in this world forever.
Some of the images looked very old, like soldiers from hundreds of years ago. Some were very close, with the familiar white tower and Kyoto scenes appearing in Lin Yuan's memory.
Those painful and sad, or gorgeous and warm memories, form deep whirlpools in the long river.
In the depths of the whirlpool, some people are crying, some are laughing crazily, and some are hugging their lovers tightly...
They are all real joys and sorrows, and real blood.
Lin Yuan would sometimes be attracted by the strong emotions therein, and it was hard not to have the urge to take another look and take a step further in that direction.
In the spiritual world, as soon as a thought arises, one will be drawn into the vortex.
Get involved in a long and complex spiritual world of human beings.
In the long river of colorful whirlpools, Lin Yuan had a hard time walking. Every step was difficult and he stumbled forward.
She once thought that the most powerful mental attack was to use visual and auditory hallucinations to touch and influence the enemy's mental world, causing the enemy to fall into terrible hallucinations.
Only now did she realize that the most powerful mental attack was not an illusion.
It is real.
The things that are most likely to shake people's hearts and change their beliefs are always the truths that have been peeled away from their hearts.
Those pure love, hatred, resentment and hatred stretched out their thin white hands, and like silk threads, they grabbed the huge Kraken walking in the river.
Lin Yuan felt a fear from the bottom of his heart.
She passed through countless lives stranded here, so much pain, sorrow and joy.
The vivid joys and sorrows permeated her skin and were engraved into her bones.
She experienced all the seven emotions in the world and suffered all kinds of suffering.
But Lin Yuan was still walking. She walked very slowly, her tentacles peeling off the sticky threads on her body bit by bit, and she slowly crawled forward.
The Panther Queen crossed her arms and stood quietly in the colorful pavilion in the distance, looking at her.
It seems to be still very far away, but also seems to be very close.
The torrent of spiritual power is gradually changing.
The fragments of human memory gradually decreased, and what appeared near the forest garden was the human world seen by the strange eyes of the deformed species.
The scenes become very strange, like a bystander in a high place, recording the history of human change with a cold perspective.
From the invasion of deformed creatures to the resistance of humans.
From raising humans monsters in the underground city's research institute to them extracting the monsters' blood, they developed powerful humanoid weapons - Sentinels and Guides.
The rolling and swirling river disappeared, and Lin Yuan's feet were on solid ground. She walked forward along the long transparent corridor, with a long scroll hanging on both sides of the corridor.
The colors of the scroll are extremely saturated, and the human figures are abstract flat shapes.
The little black figures move, holding high their powerful weapons, and fighting against strange monsters.
Lin Yuan finally glimpsed a huge secret buried in history that no one had ever known.
That is the real cause of humanity's total failure.
After the warriors were injected with the blood of various types of deformed creatures, a large number of powerful fighting forces emerged among humans.
The Sentinels have strong physical qualities, and the Guides are able to put up a strong mental barrier.
The Empire, which possessed the humanoid weapon, began an ambitious land recovery plan.
In the long scroll, the emperor of the empire, wearing a crown, blew the clarion call for a full-scale expedition.
In the sky, various semi-beastial sentinels were flying, and the guides were riding in the center of the sentinel formation.
Further behind was a team pushing various hot weapons forward.
Facing a limited number of monsters, the human team is in high spirits.
The people at that time thought they had obtained the power of God, and they cheered and shouted in the painting.
In the research institute, the black man went even crazier and started a research on injecting monster blood into the whole population.
They didn't know that they had opened a terrifying Pandora's box.
Lin Yuan slowed down his pace.
In the long scroll, the warriors who have been fighting for a long time gradually cannot escape the fate of going crazy and become deformed creatures with distorted bodies.
The brave man who slays the dragon eventually becomes a dragon.
The berserk Sentinels became monsters and turned on their own compatriots.
The collapsed guides became the seedbed for hatching eggs and became powerful pillars, supporting strange pollution zones for the mutants to survive.
Humanity's total defeat began from that moment.
By the time they realize the situation is out of control, the sentinel and guide genes have already been engraved into human blood and are irreversible.
Lin Yuan's footsteps unknowingly reached the end of the scroll and stepped on the small pavilion.
The Zombie Queen who was waiting there pointed to the end of the scroll and told Lin Yuan,
"I was born in that era. Back then, I witnessed how humans began to destroy themselves from within."
Following her finger, at the end of the scroll, humans have shrunk to a small area.
But those little black figures are still killing each other and snatching resources from each other.
The king wearing a crown and the princes and princesses wearing laurel wreaths on their heads compete for the position of the supreme ruler of the empire, and push each other's warriors into the contaminated zone representing death.
Now, from the perspective of the world outside the painting, the behavior of those tiny figures on the canvas seems so ridiculous.
But it is the history of the old days of mankind.
Standing next to Lin Yuan, the mutant in a formal dress covered his mouth and sighed.
"At first I couldn't understand it at all. I didn't understand why humans would destroy their own species."
"In later years, I collected a lot of books about human history and learned that this is their racial characteristic." She spread her hands gracefully. "Although I still don't understand it, I can only show respect."
"But by the time we reacted, we found that the human population had dwindled to a critical level. It's terrible. There was never such a large race on this planet."
She touched the green gem on her chest and said, "So, in order to protect humanity, we had to implement a plan in the end."
When she finished saying this, the world suddenly became very quiet, and the little man in the scroll was still waving his weapon.
Outside the painting, a breeze blew across the boundless sea of flowers, creating waves of color.
Lin Yuan shuddered, thinking of the word she had heard before.
Captive humans.
The Zombie Queen stood quietly beside Lin Yuan, her graceful posture imitating human behavior, with twisted monster limbs extending from under her skirt.
At that moment, Lin Yuan received a large amount of mental information from the Zombie Queen. That information rushed into his mind and merged with what he had known before.
All the strange and inexplicable things in this world have become reasonable at this moment.
When humans were on the verge of extinction, monsters began to keep humans in captivity.
This is an incredible truth.
In order to prevent the extinction of mankind, the powerful adult mutants took out a piece of their bones and used their huge bones to fuse into the white tower.
The White Pagoda is considered a holy place by humans today.
The Garden of Eden, the sanctuary that humans sang praises of, is actually a fence where monsters keep humans captive.
The White Tower is made of the bones of powerful mutants, so it can intimidate and remind all the young and ignorant mutants not to approach.
Do not approach, do not invade, and do not eat without permission.
The circle is their farm, a place to keep humans in captivity. Therefore, the mutants never invade the area around the White Tower.
Don't even touch the sentry post where the white tower bone bricks are placed.
But what is the price of keeping humans in captivity? Lin Yuan was horified.
"Keeping humans in captivity? Why?" Lin Yuan asked.
"We are a very fragile species." The zombophagus next to me said, "It is extremely difficult for us to survive and reproduce. We are not like the creatures on this planet that have strong reproductive abilities."
Mutants are humanity's nightmare and a deadly and powerful enemy.
It has a powerful vitality that is difficult to kill, can parasitize the human body, invade the spiritual world, and hatch distorted and independent pollution areas.
An almost unbeatable enemy.
Lin Yuan never thought that they would think that they themselves are a vulnerable race?
As if she had heard Lin Yuan's thoughts, the glutton turned around, and her red lips curved slightly under the black veil.
"What are you thinking? The meaning of life is reproduction, not fighting."
At this moment, the queen with a slender waist has her back to the beautiful sea of flowers. Behind her, the flowers are blooming gorgeously, and countless tiny insects are flying and chasing their partners.
Even if the sunlight here destroys the earth once a day, these tenacious lives can figure out ways to continue their offspring.
"In order to reproduce, the phasian tiger will eat its male partner on its wedding night. Flowers can bloom such beautiful petals in order to reproduce."
"As a species, we can only survive by parasitizing other organisms. We are a very fragile species."
The gorilla queen turned her back to the flourishing sea of flowers, and her slender figure looked a little melancholy.
"Our reproduction is extremely difficult. The birth of an egg requires a harsh environment. The incubation process of the egg requires a long time and endless mental strength."
In this spiritual world, the queen raised her hand and pointed towards the sky.
The stars in the sky above his head disappeared, and Lin Yuan saw the real world outside through the sky.
She looked up and saw that in the real world outside the mental image, her companions had already woken up and were fighting hard against the mutants.
Lin Yuan could even see himself with his eyes closed, standing still, being guarded by the sentries.
The ground in front of the sentinels cracked open, and two mutants slowly crawled out of the ground.
These two mutants are very special. They are neither huge nor have sharp teeth or claws. Apart from their expressionless faces, they are almost identical to normal humans in appearance and body structure.
One was a man and the other was a woman. They both had the same face and dull expressions.
Lin Yuan recalled that when he entered the castle, he saw the incomplete shells of these two mutants outside the gate.
At that time, their shells were still huge and slightly strange. Now the two that have emerged from the ground are exactly the same as humans in every aspect.
When entering, Lin Yuan saw countless husks of deformed species that merged various biological forms outside the castle, including these two.
This is very strange, as if someone has tried to mold different forms of life and made them evolve and mutate repeatedly.
"Because I envy your reproduction method, I have done a lot of experiments in recent years." said the Queen of Zombies.
"I have merged many creatures with strong reproductive abilities and let them simulate life in the human world. Unfortunately, they all failed in the end."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment, "But I have seen families of deformed creatures. They get married and take care of their children."
She even came into contact with a small mutant that had devoured its mother. It looked like the mother's child.
"That's just a simple imitation of the human world. We don't have the ability to reproduce on our own. We can parasitize and infect others, but we can't reproduce without a host."
"Look at these two. I even spent a lot of effort to create them completely according to human physiological structure, and the genders are also divided into male and female. But in the end, they can't give birth to children in the way you do."
Through the curtain of the sky, Lin Yuan saw the two mutants.
In appearance, their actions and even their attack methods are no different from humans.
The male humanoid mutant was walking towards the Sentinels.
He was not tall and had a slim figure, but he suddenly kicked out with a powerful kick, kicking out the huge panda in front of him. The kick came without any warning and was as fast as an afterimage.
Du Yuanyuan's huge spiritual panda was kicked far away by him, and its round body hit the stone pillars of the hall hard, breaking a thick pillar.
The chubby boy rolled on the ground for a few rounds, then got up angrily, let out a roar, and rushed towards the guy who kicked him away with all his limbs.
Halfway through, a black shadow as fast as lightning descended from the sky, and its sword swung as fast as the wind, and it was about to split the rolling mass in two with its falling momentum.
It was another female mutant. Her figure was as fast as a ghost, and she attacked from above with a knife, and the chubby panda was completely unable to react.
Fortunately, Ni Ji stepped forward and intercepted her halfway with a red blade. The blades collided, leaving a sharp sound in the air.
The two of them separated as soon as they touched.
The female mutant leaped back to her original position with an indifferent expression, and licked the blood on the blade with her tongue.
Ni Ji knelt on one knee and raised her face. A red bloodstain appeared on her pretty face.
On the other side, the male mutant kicked the panda away, turned over and launched a series of kicks, knocking Rachel down at lightning speed, and stabbed Rachel's eyes with his fingers without mercy.
Yun Luo's unicorn rushed over in time and snatched Rachel from his claws. Even so, three red claw marks were still left on Rachel's face.
Two male and female mutants with identical faces stood back to back, one licking a knife and the other moving a bloody finger.
The sentinels looked solemn and stood in pairs to form a corner, carefully protecting Lin Yuan who had her eyes closed and Nicole who had just woken up.
Nicole frowned and said, "It's not easy. They have almost no mental fluctuations, so it's hard to influence them."
These two small humanoid mutants may not look impressive, but they are terrifyingly strong.
He appeared on the scene for only a short while before he easily injured GunGun, Ni Ji and Rachel one after another.
In the mental picture, the Zombie Queen disdains to watch such a fight. She lifts up her skirt, sits down in the pavilion, and points her finger at two butterflies in the flowers beside her.
"They are just two useless pieces of junk. No matter how hard we tried to mate, they never succeeded in producing life, which was a great disappointment to me. In my eyes, they are not even as adorable as these two flying insects."
"We can only let them sleep underground and hide them from our eyes."
Lin Yuan finally understood why humans became the objects of captivity for deformed species.
Although the mutants are powerful, they are difficult to defeat.
But from another perspective, they do depend on humans for survival.
They need to parasitize humans to survive. Their eggs need to absorb a large amount of mental energy to hatch into a stable pollution zone.
The contaminated area where Xunhua is located has been rarely entered by humans for many years due to Xunhua's wishes. Even after four hundred years, it has not been fully hatched.
so it is.
This is why the practice of keeping humans in captivity exists.
The Zombie Queen looked at Lin Yuan, "You look strange. I mean, you are special."
Her voice sounded peaceful and calm, like most of their kind, without much emotion in her tone.
"When you came in, I felt like you were very close to us."
"You have ancient pure blood. You should be a rational and calm life. I think after you know the truth, you will soon recognize the reality and become a good partner of mine."
"But you look so…" The voice of the phalanx was a little hesitant, "You look like… a pure human being, with rich emotions."
"You seem to have those human emotions."
"Really?" Lin Yuan raised her arms and legs, crawled to the edge of the pavilion and sat down. "I'm very happy to hear that."
"Happy? You feel happy?"
"Yes, happy. It's an emotion. It's a unique emotion for humans." Lin Yuan glanced at her, "Are you jealous of me?"
While the Zombie Queen was reading her, Lin Yuan was also reading the Queen's thoughts.
I vaguely knew what was confusing her and what she was thinking about.
She is not as lonely and regretful as she appears to be.
In fact, when she made these movements and expressions, there was no emotional fluctuation in her heart.
It's just like she said, it's a simple imitation of human behavior.
The feeling she gave him was very similar to that of the Queen in the White Tower, but there were many differences.
This difference may be an opportunity for Lin Yuan and for everyone.
"Jealous?" The queen tilted her head.
"Yes, envy. Another kind of emotion that is unique to humans. However, I don't think you can understand it."
Lin Yuan's tone revealed a hint of happiness.
It feels like I have finally found the right person to show off the skills I have worked so hard to master.
It seems that this is not a battlefield full of dangers, or a mental trap where one can fall into it at any time and never be able to escape.
There were no sentinels outside, desperately guarding her body against the endless stream of monsters that appeared.
She seemed settled, had plenty of time, and was willing to stay and chat with a senior.
"I not only know what envy and happiness are, I also know what love is, what desire is, what sadness is, what friendship is... These emotions are very complicated, and they are not something that can be understood by writing on paper or talking about them."
"It took me a long time to go from a heartless Kraken to a creature that can experience all kinds of emotions. It's very interesting."
"Is it interesting?" The dinosaur's voice was a little confused. "I have always felt that sentimentality is the biggest weakness of human beings. Unstable emotions are the reason for their destruction."
"Maybe it's a weakness," Lin Yuan said, "but it's also the greatest advantage of human beings. Because with these, we can know who we are, where we are, and where we are going. Only then can we truly become an independent individual. It's a pity that you can't understand."
“What is the greatest virtue of humanity?”
The Zombie Queen followed and murmured. She had lived for hundreds of years and had many things on her mind.
Lin Yuan's simple words touched her heart.
"You keep humans in captivity, but their numbers are decreasing. You imitate humans, but you don't really understand them. You rely on their spiritual power, but you are actually killing their spiritual world."
"Powerful guides are hard to come by these days, aren't they?"
"You can't understand why humans are destroying themselves. I also don't understand you. Aren't you also watching yourself and the human race go to destruction?"
The Zombie Queen looked a little confused.
After a moment, she came to her senses and smiled.
"You actually want to influence me in my spiritual world?"
"No, I'm just stating the facts." Lin Yuan spread her hands like a queen, "The truth is always the most convincing."
"You are very special and courageous. You dare to try to influence my thinking and negotiate with me in a place like this." The Pomfret Queen said, "I have lived for such a long time, and I have only seen a human like you four hundred years ago."
"But she seems to have changed. At least now, she no longer gives me a human feeling."
