Chapter 255 New clues

 The sudden change made Zhao Meng stunned for a moment.

They saw that the guards of the Xi clan had fallen to the ground, and their bodies had become blurry.

Zhao Meng didn’t remember that the [conjugation] entry could trigger the ability to explode after one more glance.

 And just when Zhao Meng was confused,

The corpse that fell on the ground started to squirm slowly. There seemed to be something inside the corpse that was struggling toward Zhao Meng.

Seeing the strange scene, Zhao Meng hurriedly retreated.

 The two corpses slowly stopped after crawling for a certain distance.

Lu Xiaoxi on the side was stunned for a moment when she saw this situation. She didn’t expect Zhao Meng to be so direct and use this method on the Xi tribe without saying a word.

 “This alien is so cruel!”

From a 'human' perspective, seeing an alien harming one's own kind in this way will inevitably lead to sadness in one's heart.

 But this feeling was soon put behind her mind.

 Because at this time, Zhao Meng was already walking towards the building.

 “Why did this accident happen?”

Zhao Meng glanced at the other personnel who were shocked by the death of the guard, and continued to use terms on these people.

 Soon Zhao Meng discovered something unusual.

After Zhao Meng used the term, some of these people's bodies began to twist, and it seemed that something was trying to struggle out.

This phenomenon seems to tell Zhao Meng that what he uses [conjugation] to attract is not the Xi people themselves, but something that exists in the Xi people.

“There are such obvious differences between the Dong people and the Xi people.”

 Another Xi tribesman exploded, and a writhing thing appeared inside, dragging the body toward him.

Looking at the blurry things, Zhao Meng immediately remembered his first principle when facing strange things, and first used [paternity test] on them.

The identification results came back to him quickly:

 “Nor!”

“Why are the Eastern and Western tribes on the same planet so different when it comes to conjugation?”

"interesting!"

Zhao Meng did not expect that he would make such a major discovery just after arriving at the Xi tribe.

At this time, more Xi people were attracted. With Zhao Meng’s cultivation level, although he was not afraid of these Xi people who shouted for him to raise his hands,

 But there is no need for him to cause endless killings,

 Under the guidance of Lu Xiaoxi, they quickly invaded the base and found the trapped people.

 …

 “Where am I?”

A gentle voice sounded behind Zhao Meng,

Zhao Meng, who was in front of the window watching the people coming and going below and thinking about something, looked back and said,

 A young woman who looked young sat up from the bed.

“Auntie!” Seeing her relative wake up, Lu Xiaoxi stepped forward and greeted her with concern:

 “It’s Xiao Xi!” The young woman looked at the surrounding environment, let out a sigh of relief and said:

 “Unexpectedly, I was rescued.”

 “Hey, this is...”

 She had just woken up and immediately noticed Zhao Meng behind Lu Xiaoxi.

 “Oh! It’s my friend”

"Oh my friend!"

The woman looked at Zhao Meng with strange eyes, and at this moment Lu Xiaoxi thought of something and asked aloud:

“Auntie, how is your mission going?”

"Task!"

Hearing Lu Xiaoxi's question, the woman glanced at Lu Xiaoxi with slight surprise, and then her eyes turned suspicious. She glanced at Zhao Meng again and fell silent.

"where is this place?"

Lu Xiaoxi’s aunt did not answer Lu Xiaoxi’s question, but took a look at the surroundings and asked:

 “We are back!”

"came back?"

Hearing Lu Xiaoxi's answer, the woman looked at Lu Xiaoxi from suspicion to vigilance.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Zhao Meng had already disappeared into the house.

 …

Aunt Lu Xiaoxi’s friend, the officer, came to visit her, while Zhao Meng came to the top of the building, thinking about what he had encountered in the Xi clan before.

 The process of rescuing Aunt Lu Xiaoxi was not complicated.

 But unfortunately, he did not find the same aura as Lu Xiaoxi's from Aunt Lu Xiaoxi.

Although the clues about the aura stopped here, Zhao Meng still discovered new clues during his trip to the Xi tribe.

“It’s a pity that there was too much commotion at that time, so I couldn’t stay in the Xi clan for a long time, otherwise…”

“It’s been a while since that day, it’s time to go take a look.”

Thinking of this, Zhao Meng's heart moved. He didn't intend to say hello to the others, so he got up and flew to the Xi clan.

Not long after he flew out, the phone in his arms vibrated. Zhao Meng took out his phone and glanced at the information on it.

 “Gene editing technology?”

Looking at the message sent by Lu Xiaoxi, Zhao Meng understood something.

 In the message sent by Lu Xiaoxi, he told Zhao Meng something.

Her aunt infiltrated the Xi tribe in order to detect the Xi tribe’s gene editing technology.

 Many years ago, in order to cultivate so-called super soldiers, the Xi people used this editing technology on a large number of infants and children, trying to make these Xi people break through their own limits.

  But unfortunately, until now, these Western tribes still have not achieved the results they want.

Although they have not achieved the desired results, the Xi people have not given up and have been exploring.

"This kind of news should be top secret for both the Xi and Dong tribes. If it is leaked even slightly, it may cause a storm of public opinion. Why would the Dong tribe tell me this kind of news?"

Zhao Meng learned from the information from the Dong tribe that although gene editing technology applied to humans is expressly prohibited,

If an individual uses editing technology without authorization to modify a baby's genes, he or she will be imprisoned.

 But this kind of situation that can change human beings' own development and affect the consequences of tomorrow makes people full of desire for exploration, and it also contains a lot of benefits.

The Dong tribe’s own supervision is extremely strong, and no one dares to blatantly violate the bottom line.

  But for other small tribes, and for the Xi tribe, this technology, which was sealed to the forbidden area of ​​​​the East tribe's public opinion, is spreading quietly and uncontrollably.

 Human trafficking, illegal surrogacy, and other chaos have become the breeding ground for this technology.

Of course, the Xi tribe is also quietly using this technology to build the legendary new human race.

“In other words, the abnormality of the entry to the Xi people is due to abnormalities in their own genes.”

 “The world’s secrets are hidden in its own genes.”

“It’s a bit strange for the Dong people to leak such fundamental information about themselves to an alien like me.”

 Zhao Meng shook his head and suppressed the doubts in his heart.

 …

Without a burden like Lu Xiaoxi, he reached the mainland where the Xi clan was located at a faster speed.

Zhao Meng did not go directly to the people in power of the Xi tribe when he arrived at the land where the Xi tribe was located.

 Instead, we first found one or two ordinary Xi tribesmen and conducted a [conjugation] experiment on them.

Looking at the two Mosexi tribesmen who were in high spirits and carrying puff buns, approaching him, Zhao Meng ducked and disappeared.

“It seems that ordinary people are not affected by gene editing.”

 After testing ordinary people, Zhao Meng headed towards the administrative center of the city.

Time passed little by little, and through the clue of genetic editing, Zhao Meng soon made a discovery.

 In an underground experimental base of the Xi tribe, staff members wearing protective clothing were pushing a trolley and walking in the clean corridor.

At this moment, the bottles and cans on the trolley shook.

The staff member pushing the cart immediately took out a gun from the cart and pointed it at a place, but there was nothing at that place.

 “Damn it! Damn it!”

The staff member held up his headset and seemed to be communicating with other supervisors.

 After communicating with Jili Gulu for a while, he could only continue to move forward.

He had just taken a few steps when the entire corridor suddenly flashed with red light, and the entire base's alarm bells sounded.

 …

 “I can’t understand it at all!”

During this period, Zhao Meng conducted a lot of exploration of the Xi tribe. With his cultivation, even though these human bases were tightly guarded, Zhao Meng could still come and go freely.

 Zhao Meng obtained a large amount of information, but something happened that left him helpless.

 As a cultivator, he knows a lot of things, but he doesn’t know even more.

Especially for this kind of complex biological and genetic knowledge, he was even more confused, and he couldn't understand much of the information.

“They kidnapped some scientific researchers from the Xi tribe and helped me decipher it. They also said they would go to the Dong tribe for help.”

Looking at the numerous information in his hands, Zhao Meng did not hesitate too much, got up and returned to the territory of the Dong tribe.

 …

 The Dong people did not refuse Zhao Meng’s request for cooperation.

Helped Zhao Meng decipher some of the genetic data, including the part that Zhao Meng was most concerned about [conjugation] that would cause an explosion.

 “Gene fragments from unknown organisms!”

After getting the analysis report from the Dong tribe, Zhao Meng was stunned for a moment. His exploration of this world seemed to have reached a bottleneck again.

However, compared to the previous situation where both eyes were blank, now at least there is a new direction to explore.

“For news about unknown creatures, we can only go to the Xi tribe to find them!”

 “By the way, there’s one more thing!”

 …

 Zhao Meng has disappeared from Lu Xiaoxi’s life for some time.

 With the sudden departure of this alien,

Lu Xiaoxi's life seems to have returned to normal, but how could the influence Zhao Meng left on her be eliminated so easily.

 Colleagues would also joke with her about how she almost became an alien’s wife.

 Friends who are very close to her will even ask what it is like to be friends with aliens.

 She doesn’t care about all the jokes in life.

What really made her feel uncomfortable was that every time in the dead of night, she would always think of those Western humans, exploding into a squirming blur under the gaze of aliens.

Even though she has undergone professional training, she still has lingering fears in thinking about that scene.

 “That’s it, I understand that I have to work overtime, so go to bed early!”

After setting the alarm clock, Lu Xiaoxi slowly closed her eyes.

 …

Lu Xiaoxi appeared in a **** world for some unknown reason.

The originally prosperous world is covered with all kinds of blood threads, which are like ivy, wrapping around street lamps and climbing high-rise buildings.

The streets were crowded with all kinds of squirming meat balls. These meat **** seemed to have discovered her presence, and they exploded instantly, and a large blurry thing ran towards her quickly.

 …

 “Ah~”

 Lu Xiaoxi, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened.

　　The terrifying and unclear dream just now caused her heartbeat to accelerate uncontrollably.

at this time,

　　A gust of wind blew by,

 The curtains covering the windows fluttered in the wind:

"who!"

Lu Xiaoxi came to the balcony. She just saw that there seemed to be someone here, but when she came closer, she saw no one.

Lu Xiaoxi closed the window and returned to bed again.

She thought about the doomsday scene she had just dreamed about. For some reason, she couldn't fall asleep. Lu Xiaoxi suffered from insomnia.

 …

"strangeness?"

 On the roof of Lu Xiaoxi’s floor,

There was a trace of doubt on Zhao Meng's face.

 Before he prepared to look for the unknown creature, he did not forget that he had another clue, which was the strange aura on Lu Xiaoxi's body.

 This aura is unique to her. Zhao Meng has not found anything similar in her relatives.

 In this case, he could only treat Lu Xiaoxi with caution.

 Hence, he used another method of exploration on Lu Xiaoxi, and it took several months for this method to become apparent.

However, considering that there is a certain probability in this method, Zhao Meng has to check her status from time to time.

 And during this inspection, Zhao Meng discovered a problem.

 “She didn’t react as she should have!”

 “Why is this happening?”

 “Is it a matter of probability?”

 Be aware that some things are not 100% successful, let alone through non-contact means.

 “Wait a little longer, it’s really not possible, we can only use further methods!”

Zhao Meng glanced at the floor below, shook his head gently, turned and left.

 …

 The East Clan has no information about unknown mysterious creatures. From this, we can know how well the Xi Clan monitors this information.

Although the Dong tribe doesn’t know where this mysterious creature is hiding,

However, based on long-term observation of the Xi tribe, the Dong tribe still provided Zhao Meng with several locations where mysterious creatures might be hidden.

According to the information provided by the Dong clan, Zhao Meng began to search,

 “Not here!”

"Next!"

Zhao Meng calmly left a base with the alarm bell blaring and headed to the next place.

 And because Zhao Meng's unscrupulous behavior also aroused the vigilance of the Xi people,

 Some bases have increased their defense efforts, and some important secrets have been hidden deeper.

 But even so, Zhao Meng could not be stopped.

“Those managers from the West tribe also know very little about their own mysterious creatures. No wonder the people from the East tribe have difficulty obtaining information.”

“But based on the information provided by these managers, the next base should be where I am looking for.”

Zhao Meng muttered and continued to the next base.

 “Cave!”

When sneaking into this base, Zhao Meng found that this place seemed to be different from the previous bases.

Although this mine has traces of artificial excavation, there are more signs of natural erosion.

 In the depths of the mine, Zhao Meng saw the Xi tribesmen who were transporting something outward through the track.
