Mage Adam Chapter 139: 3rd Generation

The second-generation virus allows the infected body to master the secondary element energy, which is a huge leap compared to the first-generation virus, but the third-generation virus envisaged by Adam will not produce this kind of qualitative change, but will Make every infected body valuable, whether 'in life' or 'after death'.

The current infected body has the ability to eat the corpses of other infected bodies to replenish its own strength, which is derived from the ability of abyss creatures. A truly complete abyss creature can devour all energy to promote its own evolution. Adam's existing ability cannot be restored, but he can amplify the most superficial manifestation of this ability.

This research is what Adam will complete next - the mutual phagocytosis of infectious body viruses.

If the third-generation virus research is successful, it means that the evolution of the virus has changed from Adam's sole control to the uncontrollable and autonomous evolution of the virus, which means that Adam does not know what the next infection will look like.

Just one thing is certain, the ultimate result of this disorderly evolution must be self-destruction.

Because when Adam's eyes and ears spread all over the island of Ceylon, he found that although the virus can be transmitted through the air, the scope of the spread is limited to the island, and none of the countless lives in the sea are infected. Obviously, the fifth element of the Holy Tower This virus will not be allowed to spread unrestrictedly, that is to say, the number of infected bodies is now saturated, and no new organisms will be infected, so when the virus begins to devour itself, the number will only decrease.

But it doesn't matter. The knowledge of virus development has been mastered, and the consumption of these infected bodies is not in Adam's consideration.

Five days later.

Outside Ceylon Island, in the war trial headquarters hidden in the folds of space, the mages from the Fifth Elemental Tower felt a headache.

"This apprentice named Adam, what should we do with it?" A male mage asked, pointing to one of the thousands of suspended light curtains showing Adam.

A female mage knocked on the table and said, "He didn't break the rules, all the merits are valid, but..."

"But he broke the order of the trial, look at these things," the first mage waved his hand. After the light curtain was changed, the infected bodies were displayed all over the mountains and fields. These infected bodies were able to attack ordinary enemies after acquiring talent magic. The mage apprentice caused a disaster, "The trial has become easy for him, not only that, we can't even release special tasks, those key locations that are dangerous to the apprentice are all infected by these infected bodies. Filled with life and destroyed."

The female mage sighed: "If this goes on, this session will be the session with the fewest apprentices who have passed the trial, and I suspect there may be less than fifty."

The light curtain changed again, this time showing the image of a large open space outside Adam's laboratory. The mage pointed to the infected body that moved the metal block like an ant moved house and said: "Fifty? Adam's information, all of you. Have you heard of it? Do you remember the magic called the Railgun?"

The faces of several mages couldn't help but look ugly. The light curtain was constantly changing under their control. The anti-mages were driven away, and the trial apprentices chased intentionally or unintentionally. The final destination in the deduction, as well as the magic circle and metal prepared by Adam Blocks are tied together by them.

"He's going to..."

———

In five days, the battle between Anti-Mage, Trial Apprentice, and Infected Body entered a white-hot stage. Since the battle of destroying Hill, Lance and Aum's three families was destroyed by Infected Body, all the apprentices saw There is only one countermeasure to the infected body, and that is to kill.

But there are too many infected bodies. Every time they fight against anti-mages, they will be watched by countless infected bodies, which makes them unable to save their strength. Most of the apprentices who suppress promotion have become full-scale mages. .

"Lilith, if you continue to follow this route, where will the final destination be?" These elites are not fools, they have already discovered that the infected body is guiding them, but they have no way to break the game, this kind of being led by the nose The feeling of walking made everyone angry.

Lilith spread out a map with arrows drawn on it. She picked up a pen and drew a circle to the left of the center of Ceylon Island: "The Holy Meteor Basin, if nothing else, is here."

The War Alliance has been in a lot of trouble recently, and their credibility is rapidly declining in units of days. Trial apprentices outside the alliance are very dissatisfied with the efficiency of the alliance.

They have reasons to be dissatisfied: at the beginning, you asked everyone to join, unified command and unified action, and promised to maximize the results of the battle, so that more people could pass the trial, well, we believed it, but now, except for A few people in your alliance have earned enough merits, and we haven't seen it at all. If we knew this, it would be better to go out and try our luck instead of working with you ~IndoMTL.com~.

Therefore, Lilith and the top leaders of the War Alliance urgently need a big victory to stabilize the military's heart, at least for some people to see tangible merit points.

"We can't be led away." Lilith said decisively.

Everyone looked at each other for a while, and then someone raised doubts: "Our people went around to spy on intelligence, but every time the main battle personnel arrived, they would find that the anti-mage had escaped. As long as the infected body still exists, we will not The way is not to be led away.”

"That's right, but those things can't be killed at all."

Lilith was silent for a while, then asked aside, "Reinhardt, how are you doing?"

"These infected bodies seem to be mining and collecting metal supplies. They are very cautious. They will self-destruct if they find anyone snooping. We have too few people to complete all-round tracking, but," Reinhardt dragged over Map, reach out, fingers spread out and press in one place: "They will all flow to this area eventually."

"This is the intersection of the Hill family, the Lance family, and the immortal school."

"Yes, a huge wasteland, without any supplies, without a single town."

Lilith thought thoughtfully: "That's why it's more suitable for hiding, isn't it?"

The rest of the members who listened to the conversation between the two in confusion suddenly realized, and then they all burst into anger: "You mean, the mastermind behind the scenes is hidden here?"

They hated this man very much. Although he didn't use the infectious body to kill even one of them, the feeling of being played with applause in terms of IQ was more uncomfortable than killing them.

Lilith nodded: "If nothing else, this is the place. It seems that we need to solve this trouble before we fight the Anti-Mage..."
