Chapter 189 Heaven and Hell
Although Gu Peijun looked a little fierce due to her zombie state, whenever she looked at Li Xingye, one could see kindness and tenderness in her eyes.
When Li Xingye heard what Gu Peijun said, his eyes turned red.
When he was struggling alone in the end of the world, it turned out that his mother had been secretly concerned about him.
The three of them talked for a while, and Chi Wan looked at Li Mingyu who was almost running to the bottom of the underground in the surveillance video and asked, "Should we just ignore him?"
Gu Peijun sneered: "His previous experimental goal was to improve the genetic defects of the next generation and completely eliminate genetic diseases. But I don't know when he started to be dazzled by the huge sums of money and the feeling of holding great power.
"Since evolving to the ultimate is his dream, how can I not destroy his expectations with my own hands? Many of the psychic test subjects underground have had his brain tissue implanted in them, and his psychic powers are also somewhat different from other psychic powers.
"But not everyone can withstand his devouring and remain normal. So, he cut off half of the brain as his last trump card."
Chi Wan and Li Xingye looked at each other.
The operation of "cutting off half of the brain" is really too niche.
"His brain structure has long been completely changed during the evolution process, otherwise it would not be able to bear the load brought by the evolution of psychic abilities."
Gu Peijun zoomed in on one of the surveillance videos: "Soon, he will be able to see the surprise I left for him."
The surveillance video shows a completely independent room, which is a little dark and difficult to see clearly.
All you can see is the faintly glowing container in the middle, with a huge brain soaked in it.
But it is not only half as Gu Peijun said. Instead, it is a circle larger than the brain of an ordinary person.
Chi Wan hesitated and said, "This is... Then why did he provoke Brother Xingye to kill him before?"
Gu Peijun shook his head: "Li Mingyu gained an extra ability when his superpowers evolved not long ago, using his own brain tissue as a parasitic medium. When the host dies under the superpowers of others, he can change the host according to the energy.
"Even just a little bit—"
Gu Peijun compared the size with her fingernails: "It can lie dormant and slowly eat away at the host's brain, thus achieving 'occupation'.
“After all, his previous body was on the verge of complete collapse after surviving this evolution. Even if Aye didn’t kill him, it would collapse sooner or later.
"As long as he can control the host and integrate the part of the brain he separated, it will be equivalent to a 'rebirth'. Fortunately, Aye didn't fall for it, and there is no better host for him to choose at the moment."
After hearing all this, Chi Wan's only thought was: the strange supernatural powers in the apocalypse were beyond the imagination of someone like her who lived in a peaceful world, and it was absolutely right not to let Professor Qian and the others come over.
Li Xingye sneered: "On the other hand, he also feels that he is parasitic on me and it is too slow for him to seize the initiative."
Although the evolution of other superpowers will not change the brain structure, the stronger the superpower, the stronger the mental power will naturally be. Relatively speaking, it is not so easy to erode and seize control of the body.
Hearing Li Xingye say this, Chi Wan suddenly thought of something and said in horror: "No! Brother Xingye, what if there was a parasite of his among those superpowers you killed before?!"
After all, Li Mingyu had organized many sniper attacks on Li Xingye before, but they all ended in failure.
Li Xingye looked at Chi Wan's panicked expression, gently touched her head and comforted her: "No, if it succeeds, he won't need to induce me to kill the host just now."
Gu Peijun looked at Chi Wan's concern for Li Xingye, and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, not everyone can bear his cannibalism.
"If the mental power is too weak, it will collapse directly. If the mental power is too strong, the efficiency will be low. It is not easy to find a suitable host."
As she spoke, she looked at Li Mingyu who was rushing towards the room where the brain was stored in the picture, and her smile faded: "He dared to set his sights on Aye, relying only on the fact that Aye's genes are compatible with him, which allows him to achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Seeing that Li Mingyu had already begun to open the door, Gu Peijun suddenly sneered: "The fun is about to begin."
Chi Wan remembered that when Gu Peijun mentioned that she had ruined Li Mingyu's final preparations, Li Mingyu was surprised, but seeing the way he ran all the way underground, he did not seem desperate.
It was as if he was certain that Gu Peijun couldn't do it.
However, looking at the room in the video, Chi Wan could probably guess something.
After all, he is a psychic, so it doesn't seem that difficult for him to hide in a closed room.
But Gu Peijun always had a slightly sarcastic smile on her face, as if she was watching Li Mingyu fall into the abyss.
Although Chi Wan didn't know what Gu Peijun was trying to do, she noticed that the zombies in the area around the room were moving together.
However, their movement direction did not seem to be towards Li Mingyu, but instead towards... the top of that room!
Could it be that...
Li Mingyu solved many codes along the way, and was very careful to close one door before opening the next one.
It seemed that because the doors were intact, the urgency on his face dissipated a little.
But in the end, he failed to get Li Xingye's body as planned, so his expression was not very good.
Until the last door.
Li Mingyu simply closed his eyes and rested his forehead against a strange soft screen in the middle of the door.
As his forehead pressed closer, the originally dim soft screen lit up, and it seemed that ripples were sending out in all directions towards the door.
Soon, the entire gate seemed to melt, revealing the scene inside.
Li Xingye finally breathed a sigh of relief, but before he took a step inside, he realized that he had breathed a sigh of relief too early.
Above the room, which should have been tightly closed, a strange sense of fluctuation suddenly appeared.
Then, to his shock, a group of zombies that he had locked up in the laboratory slowly fell around his brain.
Li Mingyu's eyes were red with anger: "No! No no no, get out of here!! Gu Peijun!!! Ah——"
The zombies followed their instincts and discovered the glowing brain, which seemed to be of great benefit to them.
They made "ho-ho" sounds excitedly, and then reached out their hands without hesitation to dig at their brains.
Although Li Mingyu's current host is a powerful psychic, he used many methods to weaken the body's mental power in order to succeed in parasitizing as quickly as possible.
Especially the various supernatural parts of his body that have now become cumbersome and have restricted his hands and feet.
There were more and more zombies falling above his head. Li Mingyu was caught in a dilemma, as he had to prevent himself from being scratched by the zombies while also protecting his brain.
The end result was that he was scratched several times by the zombies and watched his brain being eaten up.
