Watch Out! Danger Ahead

Chapter 120: evolution

The people who witnessed the mutant crocodile dying back to the scene were still lingering. Even if the wolf had made up the gun, it was determined that the crocodile would no longer move, but no one else dared to rely on it to make sure.

Song Qingxiao sat on the ground for a while, got up slowly after getting through the pain of falling to the ground.

The eyes of the testers were looking at her vaguely, the more at this time, the less she could show her weakness.

Her previous backpack was thrown out by her when it was in distress, and it was bitten to pieces by the mutant crocodile. With a cold face, holding the dagger in her hand, she went straight to the trialers closest to where she was sitting. .

Song Qingxiao's gaze shifted around several people, and everyone she was staring at had their scalp tight.

The scene of Song Qingxiao's fight with the mutant crocodile was still vividly remembered by everyone. When the crocodile pretended to be dead, she was the first to discover something wrong, which saved Professor Yan and the others from death.

This alone is not easy. After all, ordinary people may have been frightened and weakened by the situation at the time. Where can they have the courage to resist? Not to mention that in the end when the crocodile went mad, she did not have a dead animal mouth, but she could wound the crocodile and retreat.

Song Qingxiao no matter what these people think, she knows that Mr. Zhou is also staring at herself vigilantly at this time.

She finally turned her gaze to the young man No. 6, and the others breathed a sigh of relief in unison.

When she saw the number six, it was like an enemy.

Strangely speaking, she was calm and her eyes were not fierce, but when she was staring at him, Number Six felt panic in her heart, and she insisted on asking:

"You... what do you want to do?"

She looked condescendingly at the backpack carried by the young man No. 6, "Give it to me."

Song Qingxiao was not discussing with him, but a natural tone, as if the backpack on No.6 belonged to her originally.

When the young man No. 6 heard her, his face turned pale.

In front of everyone, Song Qingxiao's actions were tantamount to robbery, and he didn't show him any face at all.

There was a humiliation in his heart. He just wanted to turn his face, but his eyes fell on the dagger she was holding. The dagger was stained with blood, and he was slowly dripping down the blade at this time.

This woman is extraordinary and not easy to provoke.

When he was in the trial space that day, he glanced away, squeezed her as a soft persimmon, and forged enmity.

It wasn't appropriate to start at this time. He had fought against Song Qingxiao, but he did not take advantage of her.

Once the two fight in public, other testers will only be optimistic about their success, and even No. 7 is very likely to fall into trouble, attacking herself as she did when she attacked her before.

No. 6 endured and endured, and finally endured the evil breath abruptly.

Fortunately, he had robbed two copies when he was snatching supplies. At this time, No.6 held back his anger, took one of the backpacks, and threw it at Song Qingxiao with a cold face.

She caught it with one hand, then kicked and sat aside the worker:

"Step aside."

The person she kicked didn't dare to disobey. The powerful strength she had shown before made the man unable to resist even the courage to resist, so he hurriedly got up to make room and let her sit down.

Mr. Zhou covered his mouth with one hand, and the corner of his eyes had been paying attention to Song Qingxiao.

He naturally saw the scene of her snatching the No. 6 material. He saw Song Qingxiao opened the backpack and took out the mineral water, unhurriedly unscrewed the bottle, poured the water out to wash the blood on the hands and the dagger.

The water sources on the island may have been polluted. Such pure water used to wash hands is naturally a violent thing, but no one dared to say anything at this time.

Mr. Zhou's eyes were a little gloomy, and Song Qingxiao did not die under the bullet raid just now, which made Mr. Zhou secretly regretful.

An old treacherous businessman like Mr. Zhou naturally knew that Song Qingxiao had already been completely offended when he ordered the shooting.

The more she behaved, the more disturbed Mr. Zhou was.

"Mr. Zhou..."

Zhou Xueli called him, Mr. Zhou reluctantly turned his head and motioned for Zhou Xueli to continue.

"Professor Yan, they have new discoveries."

Zhou Xueli didn't seem to notice the dark bird flashing in Mr. Zhou's eyes before, and pointed to Professor Yan and others:

"I want to check again."

The previous work of extracting the mutant crocodile gene and recording its data was interrupted by accident before it was completed.

Professor Yan and others fell to the ground, their protective clothing had been contaminated with dried blood, and they looked quite embarrassed.

Because of the previous experience of the crocodile pretending to be dead and trying to kill people, these scientists were very frightened. At this time, if they want to observe again, they need an accompanying person to protect them.

In the hearts of these scholars, it is natural that Song Qingxiao can accompany them again.

Not only Song Qingxiao's keen reaction when facing danger, but also her formidable strength and manner of saving people are quite trustworthy.

It is a pity that Mr. Zhou's behavior in ordering to shoot clearly offends Song Qingxiao, and the possibility of her being accompanied again is very slim.

Mr. Zhou finally ordered Wolf One, Wolf Two and a worker to confirm the life and death of the crocodile. The worker was crying and unwilling to go, but he was forced to approach by gunpoint.

In his trembling voice, after confirming that the crocodile was really dead this time, everyone was relieved.

By the time the scientists finished the matter, more than half an hour had passed.

The sky was already bright at this time, and the expressions of Professor Yan and others were solemn and a little excited.

"Mr. Zhou, all the crocodile bodies have been examined."

Professor Yan sat next to Mr. Zhou and reported the previous findings of everyone:

"Some of the material in the pool was extracted, and a crocodile that hadn't broken the shell was found in the broken eggshell."

Song Qingxiao sat on the ground, regaining his physical strength, while distracted to listen to Professor Yan's words:

"It has been collected, and it is ready to be tested at the old site of the institute."

He pushed the glasses on his face: "From what we know so far, the mutations in these crocodile genes are characterized by thickening of the scales and larger body, but from their number and crushed eggs, only one hatched. From the perspective of the formed crocodiles, their fertility is low."

In the absence of human intervention on the island, this area of ​​water is also a territory belonging to crocodiles. It seems that their numbers are sparse and may not be affected by natural enemies, but should be one of the consequences of genetic changes.

"Of course this is just a speculation, and the specific data needs to be analyzed to determine."

When he said this, he stretched out his hand to point to the big crocodile that pretended to be dead and tried to sneak attack on humans:

"But these are not important, Mr. Zhou, that mutant crocodile is no longer the same as other crocodile."

Professor Yan's words made Mr. Zhou stunned, and the other people who were listening looked at each other.

A female voice suddenly asked:

"What's the difference?"

This abrupt voice was inserted into the conversation between Professor Yan and Mr. Zhou. Mr. Zhou's eyes were instinctively unpleasant, but he quickly recovered his calm after discovering that the speaker was Song Qingxiao.

"Bigger, can't you see it?"

No. 6 couldn't help but sneer. He was still thinking about the hatred of being humiliated by Song Qingxiao in public before. At this time, he caught the opportunity and couldn't help but stab her.

Hearing what he said, Professor Yan frowned, and did not pay attention to No.6. Instead, he looked at Song Qingxiao and was happy to explain to the woman who had saved her life earlier:

"Miss Song, from the changes in teeth, bones, length, body shape, etc., I suspect that this crocodile has a tendency to return to ancestors." There was a slight distressed look on his face, as if he was worried about how to use it or not. Professional words, explain to Song Qingxiao, a layman:

"Do you know the emperor crocodile species? I suspect that the gene of this crocodile already has the phenomenon of reversion of the emperor crocodile that has long been extinct, but it surpasses the existence of the emperor crocodile."

When he talked about his field of expertise, his eyes were shining, and several other scientists squatted beside him with a look of excitement.

"It is seven meters long, and judging from its age, it still has room for growth. It already has a certain IQ. These may be caused by genetic changes."

He talked about it for a long time, but when he saw Song Qingxiao did not say anything, Professor Yan obviously knew that he was too excited, so he said a few more words, maybe Song Qingxiao was not interested in what he said.

So he quickly stopped the topic, his expression changed, and said solemnly:

"It is not rigorous enough to say that it is returning to ancestors. I prefer to use ‘evolution’ to express it." He said this, and emphasized:

"It's already evolving, Miss Song!"

Professor Yan’s words are like lighting a string of firecrackers in everyone’s hearts. Those who don’t understand are paradoxical, but vaguely feel that the situation is not good, and those who understand are greatly shocked in their hearts. calm.

Especially Mr. Zhou, who is the person with the most reaction. With Zhou Xueli's support, his body trembled heavily. The whole person seemed to be a little unsteady when he heard this, and leaned back, if it weren't for Zhou Xueli's eyesight and hands, he would quickly grab him. , I'm afraid he will fall to the ground from the sitting stone.

But even though he finally sat down firmly, the silver safe in his hand shook heavily to the ground under his tremor, making a bang.

Before Mr. Zhou could calm his breath, he instinctively checked the silver safe, with a nervous look on his face.

Young Song Qing looked at him and couldn't help but speculate about the contents of his box.

He was so nervous about the box, he couldn't leave it at all. In order to avoid losing the box, he even locked the box with his hands.

In such a dangerous place on the island, it is obviously not a wise move to do so. Mr. Zhou is not a stupid person. The reason why he did this is nothing more than the importance of the box to him, even to a certain extent, as much as his life.

The box was only slightly bumped, but he took it seriously. It is very likely that the box contained fragile or easy-to-spill items.

She drooped her eyelids, suppressed the doubts in her heart, and put her mind on what Professor Yan said.

If things are true as Professor Yan said, the animals on the island have already begun to evolve to a higher level due to genetic influences. This is a very difficult problem, because these crocodiles can evolve, which represents what they will encounter later. Other mutant creatures can also evolve to higher levels.

It also means that their trip to the island may be more dangerous than everyone imagined.

She raised her head, and several other testers invariably collided their eyes together, and their eyes were worried.

"What is the reason for this situation?"

Song Qing asked, Professor Yan shook his head:

"It's not clear at the moment. But the natural selection of materials, among a bunch of defective products, there will always be one that stands out. After screening by the environment and various aspects, it becomes the ultimate winner and evolves to a higher level."

When he said this, Song Qingxiao faintly felt that his words seemed to contain an important message,'the natural selection of things, stand out', in a way, it is somewhat similar to the meaning of trial, she still Before he could grasp the feeling firmly, Professor Yan shrugged with regret and raised his arm:

"But without scientific verification, these are just hypotheses."

Having said that, Song Qing remembered his words forcibly and nodded:

"thank you for the explanation."

"polite."

Professor Yan smiled at her. He has a good impression of Song Qingxiao, the person who saved his life. When she asks questions, he is willing to explain a few more words. Even unproven speculations are willing to tell her. .

This heart of return was also reminded by Song Qingxiao:

"You'd better clean up the blood on your body."

She pointed to the plasma on Professor Yan's body. This was what she got when she fell to the ground by kicking him to save Professor Yan's life. After a long time, he had already done it. , Which also makes Professor Yan's polite appearance look a little embarrassed.

"Uh," Professor Yan followed the direction of her fingers, touched her body, and looked at her blood and mud-stained hands, only when Song Qing's novel came out because she was innocent and difficult. Tolerate others being so dirty.

But it was a kindness to think that she could remind, so he nodded:

"Thank you."

After Song Qing finished his novel, he picked up his backpack and stood up:

"It's dawn, get out of here first."

Others were reluctant to hear her words.

The island is full of crises. Soon after I arrived on the island, I encountered a group of ferocious crocodiles~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Finally, after so many people died, these crocodiles were wiped out, and a safe place was temporarily cleared for everyone, Song Qingxiao asked everyone to leave again, naturally everyone was dissatisfied.

"Leaving? Didn't Professor Yan say that because of some changes, the animals on the island have evolved and become more fierce? Where are we going?"

Some people raised questions. Although many people didn't say anything, they seemed to support the speaker's point of view.

"Indeed, you may encounter more fierce mutant creatures in the future." Song Qingxiao looked at the speaker and laughed:

"But don't forget, the ruins of the research institute where you can call for help are not here."

She reminded everyone that many people cursed again and again when they heard this.

"Even so, it should be fine to rest for a while?" Everyone thought of going to the research institute. After encountering the mutant crocodile group, their confidence was suddenly hit.

"People are dead here, and the crocodile is killed to make such a big movement. The **** smell and sound may attract other animals to attack."

The longer you stay here, the more dangerous it might be.

After all, hearing the movement and daring to go to the crocodile's lair, it must be the high-level biological layer on the biological chain that dared to **** food from the crocodile's mouth.

After reminding her, everyone shuddered when they figured out this point. The others didn't dare to complain at this time and got up hurriedly.

Only now did Professor Yan understand what she meant by reminding herself to clean up the blood stains on her body.

He fell and was stained with blood, and his body was very bloody. If he didn't clean it, he might make some animals smell the smell in the next trip.

Thinking of this, several scientists hurriedly took water out for cleaning, and in the end they sprayed some unknown things on their bodies, which should be medicines to suppress odors.
