26.Human

At first, Lin Xianfu thought that he had stepped into the dark side of the world after he met that werewolf, and participated in it under compelling circumstances.

However, the werewolf that devoured living people, and the ratman that could produce sulfuric acid were nothing more than a green leaf drifting down to the surface of the water, and were still very far away from truly coming into contact with the underwater world.

-That kind of space isolation, set the rules of the domineering power, Lin Xianfu really can not imagine, this is what kind of visionary body can produce the ability? After personally experiencing that level of power today, Lin Xianfu felt extremely shocked and at the same time, his heart couldn't help but ripple.

--Can he become that kind of existence? Lin Xianfu kowtowed to his heart and followed Sun Jingyu out of this place in a fit of rambling thoughts.

--

Since Sun Jingyu had come to pick herself up, Lin Xianfu's journey from the front desk to meeting Bai Mian did not have any twists and turns.

Arriving inside the laboratory of the research institute, Bai Mian, who was wearing a long-dressed white lab coat, sitting in a wheelchair and leaning against a table to write, saw Lin Xianfu's arrival and smiled as she waved, "Lin Xianfu, here here~"

"Good morning, Professor Bai."

Lin Xianfu walked up and greeted her, then pulled a stool in front of her table and sat down.

"Good morning~"

Bai Mian nodded and handed him a brand new cup, pointing to the steaming coffee pot next door, "I'm used to having a cup of hot coffee in the morning, it's just been brewed, do you want it?"

"Yes, if it's not too much trouble, I'll have a cup, please. Ah, I'll just pour it myself."

Lin Xianfu nodded and got up to pour it, but was stopped by Bai Mian, "What kind of reasoning is there to let guests pour their own water, just sit down."

"... Okay, thanks."

At this moment in the laboratory, after the door was closed, the two were alone, Lin Xianfu, who had never had such an experience, was a bit constrained and had no choice but to use the method of surveying the surrounding environment to distract his attention.

This room is filled with Lin Xianfu can not name the strange equipment, as well as some written with the number of formulas can not understand the content of the paper posted on the wall everywhere, in addition to these, the most striking is the most central position, there is a large culture containers, which flowed with an unknown green liquid, the bottom of the water, occasionally there are a few bubbles rise up and burst...

Bai Mian followed his gaze and habitually explained, "Ah, that's the container for cultivating the visionary body, before finding a host willing to be inoculated, the visionary body is contained within it."

"Mounted inside, inoculated ...," Lin Xianfu spat out, "You're saying this as if you're cultivating plants, Professor Bai."

"Cultivating plants?" Bai Mian raised one eyebrow and seriously began to ponder the sentence, then smiled, "Well, that's right. In a way, it is indeed similar to planting a tree. The host is the soil, and the visionary body is the sapling, and what it grows into in the end is closely related to the composition of the soil, as well as the nutrients absorbed during the growth process. Your description is quite apt."

Bai Mian took a sip of coffee and explained further: there are three unique characteristics of a visionary body.

First: unobservable, when the body is not finished growing, it is in liquid form. Flat and unimpressive, it is extremely difficult to be observed. However, as soon as it was inoculated into the host, there was no possibility of detaching it.

"Well... It seems getting rid of it is impossible. It's a path that ends only in death or madness." Lin Xianfu thought.

Secondly, immortality: even though it was a liquid itself, it was impossible to reduce its density by any means by the slightest bit, and its total amount was fixed forever. Even if it is parasitized in a person's body, it will flow out of the corpse after the host dies, and the total amount will not decrease.

The one you killed was the host, what does it have to do with me, Bizarre Body? Hearing this Lin Xianfu couldn't help but mutter in his heart, flowing host consumables, iron body of the visionary body right?

Third, unknown growth. The growth of the visionary body cannot be separated from the nutrients given by the host, as the price of mutual help, each visionary body can provide the host with extraordinary abilities, the strength of the ability in addition to individual differences, but also depends on the development of the host.

However, even with further development, there is a qualitative difference between the visionaries. A powerful visionary can easily destroy a city in an instant. On the other hand, it is not unheard of for a weak visionary body to provide its host with the ability to "energize the body even if it doesn't sleep for three days and three nights" and "make the body sticky".

--That is to say, what ability you have after inoculation depends on your face.

"Is it appropriate for you to leave such a dangerous thing in the lab so casually? What if it gets stolen?"

Lin Xianfu looked left and right, never feeling that this lab had any security capabilities.

"There's no need to worry about that." Bai Mian said patiently, "People who don't know about the institute can't get in. People who know about the Bizarre Body ... generally don't choose to be inoculated."

"- Not everyone wants to become a monster and maintain their humanity afterward." Bai Mian lamented, realizing that he seemed to be sitting in front of a "monster", and hurriedly explained, "Uh, I'm in no way trying to belittle you!"

"I can understand."

Lin Xianfu chewed this sentence over and over in his heart, his mood was very complicated.

What ... Bai Mian said was not wrong.

Who would want to become a monster if they had a choice?

Speaking of the matter of monsters, Lin Xianfu did recall just now, when Sun Jingyu brought him in, those ordinary employees looked at her with that look of fear, embedded in alienation

--They knew who she was and feared the visionary body inside her. Lin Xianfu could actually understand how they felt, if she was an ordinary person and saw a visionary host walking on the street, she would most likely have a similar expression.

It is also based on this subconscious thought that Lin Xianfu is afraid of being discovered by others, especially by his family's identity as a monster.

Lin Xianfu thought, there are not many normal people who know his other side, even Gao Yong, who is a police officer, behaves politely when he is in front of him, as if he is afraid that he will eat him alive.

But it seems that only Bai Mian, when he learned of Lin Xianfu's other side, was still able to drop his guard and engage with him.

Even in the current lab as it was, there were only the two of them here, but Baek Mian didn't put up any defenses at all ...

"Sharing a room with me, aren't you afraid?"

Lin Xianfu pondered for a moment and slowly spoke, "The me in front of you is also a member of the Monster."

He asked this question because subconsciously, he still longed for some kind of affirmation. He longed for someone to affirm his humanity ...

As if he hadn't expected him to suddenly ask this, Bai Mian was stunned for a moment.

But the question wasn't difficult to answer, and the girl didn't even have to hesitate.

"--Why should I be afraid?"

Bai Mian's smile was still gentle, her eyes not the least bit fearful or revolting, "Lin Xianfu, I don't know what you think of yourself, but I only believe in one thing, if a person can do what they can to decisively step in to save others when they are in danger.

How could such a person be a monster?"

The so-called experts had to dare to make judgments. Bai Mian thought that her judgment had never been wrong.

Receiving an affirmative answer, Lin Xianfu was silent for a long time before finally squeezing two words out of his mouth, "Thank you."

His long-standing insistence had finally been affirmed from the mouth of the most authoritative expert.
