Chapter 171: 168 The Peculiarity of Humans

~7 min read 1,344 words

This was an act of retaliation; while targeting the Xuanmi Group, they also intended to bring disaster upon the human world in passing.

If they succeeded in extraditing the Void Demons existing in the alien dimension to the Real World, they would have the capital and the opportunity to force the Xuanmi Group to reveal the truth behind the mysterious disappearance of Kusuen.

As for whether they could successfully summon the Inverted Creator later on, it did not matter to the Eye of Kusuen; it would merely increase the intensity of the interrogation.

Finally understanding the connection between the Eye of Kusuen and the crazed murder cases in the magic city, Drake felt a sudden realization, followed by a sigh of melancholy he could not suppress.

"Is there more?" Drake digested this portion of information and then pressed Xin Junmao for more, glancing at the smiling Miss Zhao nearby; he discovered that a fat, ginger cat had appeared in her arms at some point, and her hands, capable of thousands of transformations, had now turned into countless splitting tentacles, grooming the ginger cat's fur.

Although that large ginger cat looked fat and cute, and its personality was clingy, a cat that could get along with an Alien God so naturally had clearly transcended the boundaries of its own species; it possessed a certain level of intelligence and was an anomaly.

Xin Junmao nodded, "In her memory, there is also information about other members of the Eye of Kusuen organization. With this information, I wouldn't dare say we can wipe them out entirely, but at the very least, we can strike this Abnormal organization where it hurts."

"Besides this, there are also the communication channels between the Eye of Kusuen and other allied organization members, as well as the identities of those contacts."

"What is certain now is that this Abnormal incident in the magic city has the shadows of numerous Alien God kin."

"Among them, the big news even involves the three major consortiums in Shenzhou known as the 'Three-Legged Golden Toad'. It turns out that besides the House of Cards, the other Heaven Consortium and Lihua Consortium also possess backgrounds in Abnormal organizations."

Drake: "No wonder these guys have eyes and hands that reach the heavens; it turns out they have such deep foundations in the human world."

In a society overflowing with material desires, whether one believes it or not, those who possess vast financial resources are the ones who control a large portion of human power.

"Hehe, things are far more exaggerated than you imagine. The core leadership of those three major consortiums are all Alien God kin; they are not human at all. Some are alien monsters from the stars, and others are bizarre races from the abyss of alien worlds."

"They are not human, but they wear human skin, relying on human spokespeople to wantonly collect human racial factors and frantically hoard Earth's mineral resources," Xin Junmao sneered.

Drake was puzzled: "Human racial factors? They are clearly more advanced species groups than humans; why would they still want to study us, and what do we have that is worth them studying?"

Hearing this, before Xin Junmao could answer, Miss Zhao, who was petting the cat, could not help but laugh out loud. Her beautiful, moving, but definitely non-human star-colored eyes radiated a strong sense of appetite, "You humans still don't understand yourselves well enough."

Miss Zhao scanned Drake up and down, as if looking at a piece of fine meat, admiring a shocking treasure, "Do you know how many alien offspring born from the union of humans and alien races have been recorded in human literature throughout history?"

"Naturally, there is no lack of fabrication among them, but that does not mean there is no truth within..."

"I think I roughly know what you want to say. You want to say that it is very easy for humans and alien races to give birth to hybrids, right?" Drake believed this, because he himself was a living example.

Miss Zhao was very happy to communicate with intelligent creatures and nodded with satisfaction, "But... the peculiarity of humans does not stop there. The probability of humans even giving birth to offspring with Alien Gods far exceeds that of other Abnormal races!"

"Do you know how peculiar you humans are to those Abnormal races? They certainly have more advanced civilizations and even physical constitutions than you, including reproductive capabilities, but even if they exhaust all their efforts, it is very difficult, or even impossible, for them to give birth to offspring with Alien Gods."

Drake's expression changed drastically, suddenly thinking of a terrifying possibility: "Could it be that they want to study humans to allow their own races to evolve to a higher level?"

Those Abnormal races wanted to become Alien Gods!

"I'm not clear on that. Even I, who have swallowed billions of lives, cannot fully understand the thoughts of other life forms. But, well, I think no matter what life form it is, there is a desire to break through one's own limitations," Miss Zhao smiled gracefully.

Li Duojin had awakened, but upon opening his eyes, it was still a world of darkness. His whole body was in excruciating pain, a pulling sensation as if his consciousness wanted to peel away from his body, and at the same time, the terrifying experience that occurred outside the interrogation room turned into surging tides that swept through his mind.

After adapting to the pain of his body and spirit, Li Duojin knew that his eyes were likely blind, and his physical body was probably in a precarious state.

"You're awake?" Chen Xiaolin's voice, filled with pleasant surprise, drilled into his ears.

Li Duojin just wanted to speak, but suddenly felt a bloody taste welling up in his throat. He couldn't help but cough a few times, as if coughing something out of his body; he thought it might be blood.

"I'll go call a doctor for you," Chen Xiaolin said urgently.

"No need," Li Duojin reached out by feeling and grabbed Chen Xiaolin's wrist, but he had no strength, and the other party broke free in an instant.

Li Duojin heard the other party walk two steps and then stop.

Chen Xiaolin paused for a few seconds, then spoke with a nasal tone: "Then do you need to drink something?"

"No need for that either," Li Duojin knew he didn't have to die this time, but he estimated it would be hard to live well.

"What about the Xuanmi Group?" Li Duojin asked.

Chen Xiaolin: "After Captain Yu understood the things you said before you passed out, she has already taken action against the Lihua Group."

Hearing this news, Li Duojin smiled: "Is that so? It's good that she could understand. It's a pity that I, an old man, although I had seen that woman's appearance in newspapers, I didn't remember her name. In my urgency, I could only inform her like that."

Listening to Li Duojin's words, Chen Xiaolin's eyes were red as she tried to take deep breaths. Now she could finally confirm that the thin, deformed, and twisted blind old man before her was the Li Duojin she knew.

When she first entered the ward, Chen Xiaolin didn't dare to confirm that the patient living in the room was Li Duojin. It was only after repeatedly confirming with doctors, nurses, and the Mysterious Investigator guarding the door that she kept watch in the ward, half-believingly, accompanying the old man whose appearance was both strange and familiar.

"How did you become like this?" Chen Xiaolin asked.

"Hmm... I said I had other skills, but this time I was a bit overconfident; I snatched something from an Alien God," Li Duojin laughed dryly, with no hint of regret in his words.

Chen Xiaolin: "Is aging also the price?"

"Hehe, I was already an old man to begin with," Li Duojin smiled, "It was only thanks to the Venerable's grace that I was able to live until now with a young body."
