Xie Xuan could actually understand it, not to mention that in this choice, Xie Xuan was also one of the residents of the six districts chosen.
"In other words, the current situation in District 13 is that they have chosen between slowly waiting for all residents to be devoured by the bacteria outside the wall and allowing the ecological organization to infect them all at once?"
Si Xun nodded. "This is the common choice of the residents of District 13, because the ecological organization promised them that those who become superpowered can leave District 13 and live in the jurisdiction of the ecological organizations in the first four districts."
But everyone knows how low the probability of being infected and becoming a mutant is.
However, Xie Xuan still had one last question that she didn't understand, "But why do you have to take me with you?"
Si Xun heard this question again, but this time he did not choose to avoid it.
"Xie Xuan, your awakened superpowers may change the inevitable fate of human destruction." Si Xun said bluntly.
Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment. After her superpowers awakened, no one should know about it except Wen Xu and Zhuo Guangyu.
And even if Wen Xu and Zhuo Guangyu saw it, they probably wouldn't be able to accurately infer what her special abilities were.
Could it be that her powers went out of control while she was unconscious?
Just when Xie Xuan was still wondering how Si Xun knew this and how much he knew, Si Xun suddenly said, "Xie Xuan, you don't need to worry about why I know this. I just need you to answer a question."
Si Xun turned and looked at Xie Xuan seriously, "Are you willing to save humanity?"
Xie Xuan never thought that one day she would be asked such a question like the protagonist in a hot-blooded anime.
But Xie Xuan suddenly found that he had no answer either.
Is she willing? Saving the world isn't just a slogan; it's a path she'll inevitably have to pay a heavy price. It doesn't seem to align with her ideal of living a life of quiet freedom.
But on the other hand, if the world and humanity were destroyed, how could she lie down?
And if she really has such power, it wouldn't be bad to be heroic once in a while.
"I would," Xie Xuan said, "if I can really do it."
"You can do it." Si Xun said firmly, "Xie Xuan, I hope that no matter what situation you encounter in the future, you will remember what you said to me today."
Si Xun repeated word for word, "You were born to save humanity."
Xie Xuan's heart suddenly trembled. Although this sentence sounded similar to the previous one, the meaning seemed to be a world apart.
But Si Xun continued, "You may have heard some of the rumors circulating now. Some people with special abilities are separating themselves from humans, believing that they are evolved new humans and are no longer the same race as uninfected humans."
If Xie Xuan had heard such rumors a few days ago, she would probably have found it ridiculous. No matter how powerful a psychic is, isn't he still a human being?
But after seeing with his own eyes that his body was full of blue mycelium and that it could regenerate quickly like an infected organism even after being cut, Xie Xuan actually felt that this idea was partially correct.
After all, now she only has a human-like skin, and the things inside have nothing to do with normal humans.
"The person who was parasitized in my last mission seemed to have said something similar." Xie Xuan said.
Xie Xuan originally thought Si Xun would disagree with this view, but unexpectedly, Si Xun said, "Scientifically speaking, people with special abilities, or all parasites, are no longer the same species as ordinary humans."
Xie Xuan was stunned.
"The parasitism or symbiosis of fungal species is different from other parasitic and symbiotic relationships in nature. Spores and fungal species will change the host's body to better accommodate themselves," said Si Xun.
It was as if the symbiotic spores in Xie Xuan's body had directly turned her flesh, blood, and even bones into mycelium. Xie Xuan didn't even know what the heart beating in her chest and the lungs expanding were made of.
"But I'm only saying this to tell you something." Si Xun looked at Xie Xuan and said, "Whether you agree that you are human or not, you can only stand in the human camp."
Xie Xuan felt that this matter did not need to be considered. Even if she was no longer a human being, she could not join the "our" camp that the moth man mentioned a few days ago.
The moth with mouths and eyes all over its body really challenged her aesthetic standards.
"I know." Xie Xuan nodded. "Don't worry about this matter. No matter what, I recognize that humans are my kind, and of course I will protect my kind."
Si Xun also nodded slightly and did not dwell on this issue anymore.
"You can rest for a while now. It takes quite a while to fly from District 6 to District 13."
Xie Xuan asked, "I have another question. Since District 13's choice of universal infection is voluntary, what are we going to do now?"
"Go visit." Si Xun said in a flat, cold tone, "The Ecological Organization has invited the heads of the Ecological Bureaus of the remaining twelve districts to visit their biological weapons experiment."
Xie Xuan was silent. She felt that this world was really crazy.
Si Xun seemed to have seen Xie Xuan's inner thoughts and emphasized, "So we are just going to observe this time. We don't need to do anything extra."
Xie Xuan was about to nod when she suddenly thought of Zhou Yuanyuan, who Si Xun had mentioned as missing. "Then if Zhou Yuanyuan is also in District 13, can't I go and save her?"
"Of course," Si Xun said pointedly, "Zhou Yuanyuan is a resident of District 6. As a staff member of the Reception Department of the District 6 Ecological Bureau, you have the right and obligation to rescue District 6 residents when they are in distress."
Xie Xuan understood what Si Xun meant, "If that's the case, why don't we take a few more people with us?"
"Because the ecological organization only allows two people from each district to go there, and any form of recording or videotaping is prohibited throughout the entire process."
Si Xun also raised his empty wrist and waved it in front of Xie Xuan, "Everyone going there must remove the terminal in advance."
Xie Xuan couldn't help but frown, "What if the ecological organization wanted to create an accident at this time? There would be no evidence?"
Si Xun smiled and said, "I hope they are not so radical as to do this. But if they really intend to tear each other apart, I hope you can protect me."
Xie Xuan was silent for a few seconds, "Aren't you a superpower?"
"It's obvious that I'm an ordinary human being." Si Xun said with his hands spread out.
Xie Xuan suddenly felt like she had been tricked into boarding a pirate ship, no, a pirate plane.
