[This is the beginning of the main story. Everyone, go to sleep first … Same as before, you can change before morning.]
The young girl's tender and springy flesh sank deeply into Ren Nan's mouth, and the blood that smelled of rust dyed his chin red. If Ren Nan exerted a little more force, Lin Sanjiu's fragile life would disappear from this world forever.
However, Ren Nan did not move. It was not that he did not want to eat the good seed in front of him, but he could not move. There was a chef's knife stabbed deep into the back of his head, all the way to the hilt.
There was still a trace of excitement in Ren Nan's snow-white eyes. Even in death, he could not understand why Lin Sanjiu's empty hands struggled in the air and he died just like that.
For a moment, Lin Sanjiu could only hear her own heart beating like a drum. "Thump, thump, thump." She endured the pain in her neck and pushed Ren Nan with all her might. With a loud thud, Ren Nan's heavy corpse fell to the ground. Lin Sanjiu pushed the knife from the back of Ren Nan's head and the tip of the knife protruded out of his mouth.
Lin Sanjiu covered her neck. One of her hands had turned red. She took a few deep breaths and kicked the corpse on the ground. With a hoarse voice, she cursed softly, "Who said that I only evolved two characteristics?" She could no longer stand the pain in her throat even though she had only said that.
After she kicked the corpse, Lin Sanjiu's vision suddenly darkened and she almost fell. The dizziness caused by the blood loss came faster than she expected. She couldn't care less about anything else. Right now, bandaging her wound was the most important thing. She staggered to find a towel and applied pressure on her wound. She panted and sat on the ground again. She used all her strength to hold the towel tightly.
The shrill sound of police sirens echoed throughout the city, accompanied by vague screams and cries of people, adding to the deathly stillness of the apartment on the 38th floor.
Lin Sanjiu spent some time in a semi-conscious state before the bleeding finally stopped. It seemed that Lin Sanjiu was not dead yet. She did not injure her artery. After resting for a while, she had also accumulated some strength. She struggled to get up and drink some water.
Putting down the cup of water, he looked up and saw Ren Nan's strangely shaped corpse lying quietly on the floor.
After some thought, Lin Sanjiu dragged her limp body to the side of the corpse. She placed a trembling hand on the corpse and said softly with a hoarse voice, "Put it away for me."
As soon as her voice fell, a white light flashed in her palm, and the corpse with the sharp knife on the ground disappeared. With a "pa" sound, a card the size of a poker card fell to the ground.
Lin Sanjiu took out her phone and flashed the card.
As she had expected, the card was a crude crayon drawing of a crooked man with his mouth wide open and a sharp knife in his head. At the bottom of the card, there was a line of bold words: "Ren Nan's body".
[Ren Nan's Corpse]
Name: Can't you read the card title?
Race: Human
Status: … Dead
Potential Value: 204
Suspect: Lin Sanjiu
Basic Abilities: Extreme Temperature Adaptation, Physical Enhancement, Body Modification
Advanced Abilities: Hello, Hello, Hello, Everyone, Nutritionist
"What the hell is this …" Lin Sanjiu stared at the card. For a moment, she didn't know what to say. This strange thing was the third ability that she had evolved. It had just saved her life tonight.
As long as she willed it, Lin Sanjiu could turn anything she touched into a card and store it in her body. When she wanted to use it, she only needed a thought and the card would revert to its original form on her palm.
Previously, she had grabbed a boning knife and threw it at Ren Nan to make him lower his guard. The real killer move was when Ren Nan bit Lin Sanjiu and she struggled to put her hand on the back of his head. With just a thought, the "Chef's Knife" card in Lin Sanjiu's body that morning turned into a sharp knife and pierced Ren Nan's brain.
After a few days of experimentation, Lin Sanjiu realized that she could only change her items up to four times a day.
Even though she was familiar with the cards she created, this was the first time Lin Sanjiu saw a card with such … rich content. She quickly flipped [Ren Nan's Corpse] over. Sure enough, the back of the card was filled with small words.
Ren Nan, male, 28 years old, from another "New World". He was very introverted and was not popular with girls. When he was in university, he received a confession from a male senior. After the arrival of the New World, he struggled to survive. In short, after coming to the world where the criminal Lin Sanjiu was, Ren Nan ate a billionaire with a Potential Growth Value of 2 and took over his assets. Then, he approached the criminal Lin Sanjiu. Just as he was about to eat Lin Sanjiu, he was killed by Lin Sanjiu.
"It's fine if you don't say what you should say, but why do you keep calling me a 'criminal Lin Sanjiu'?" Lin Sanjiu was a little annoyed. She used her finger to tap on the words. The words immediately disappeared and another paragraph appeared on the card.
[Hello, Hello, Hello, Everyone]: Among the sea of people, the Wisdom Eye can identify seeds with high Potential Growth Value. Through intimate physical contact (kissing, hugging, etc.), this ability can stimulate the potential of an ordinary human, allowing them to evolve into various abilities faster. As the saying goes, one takes advantage while the other doesn't.
[Nutritionist]: After eating a person, you can maximize the Potential Growth Value, evolving ability, and physical fitness of the food. Only a balanced diet and nutrition can guarantee a better tomorrow.
Note: The chef's knife in the head is made in Germany. The blade is sharp, light, and sturdy. Bought at Jingxi Mall for 599 RMB.
If it wasn't for her [Sharp Intuition], Lin Sanjiu would have thought that she was dreaming. She cursed under her breath. Holding [Ren Nan's corpse], she didn't know what to do. She didn't want to keep a corpse into her body. After some thought, she stuffed it into her pocket.
Ren Nan's card clearly stated his ability. Lin Sanjiu wondered if her card also had an introduction to the so-called "New World". Even though it was a good idea, Lin Sanjiu couldn't turn herself into a card. She rolled her eyes and plucked a strand of hair. "Keep it!" she said softly.
With a flash of white light, another card appeared in her hand.
[Hair]
Owner: Lin Sanjiu
Hair Texture: Black, healthy, the ends of the hair are a little dry.
Function: It will be very annoying if it sticks to the broom.
Note: Based on the condition of the roots of the hair, the owner may experience hair loss in their forties.
"Damn it. It's useless. " Lin Sanjiu waved her hand gloomily. With a flash of white light, the hair disappeared into the darkness.
"Is this a hot new world?" Lin Sanjiu thought to herself.
"Fifty-six degrees Celsius … Even someone like me, who has evolved [High Temperature Adaptation], can't stand the heat. I wonder what a normal person will feel like?"
Suddenly, Lin Sanjiu jolted and jumped up from the sofa. "Zhu Mei! How could I forget about my friend! "
Thinking that Zhu Mei might be in danger, Lin Sanjiu couldn't care less about the fact that she was an injured patient. She quickly took out a backpack and rushed into the kitchen. She took all the bottled water and beverages in the fridge and stuffed them into her backpack. After changing into a set of light sportswear, she found the key and opened the emergency door of the apartment. Then, she rushed into the dark stairwell.
Even though she was only going downstairs, Lin Sanjiu was a little out of breath when she went down to the 38th floor. She wiped the sweat off her forehead and took a sip of water. Then, she continued to go down to basement 1.
Ren Nan's car, or rather, the car of the person he ate, was parked at basement 1. Zhu Mei's house was about a 20-minute drive away. Lin Sanjiu didn't plan to walk there in such a high temperature.
Unexpectedly, the moment she stepped into the parking lot, Lin Sanjiu was almost blown away by the heatwave.
Looking at the parking lot in front of her, Lin Sanjiu switched off the flashlight on her phone in a daze.
There was no need for a flashlight here.
At this time, every car that was parked in the parking lot had their headlights on. They were all in the starting state. The rumbling sound of the engines was amplified by dozens of times and filled the air above the parking lot. Hundreds of exhaust pipes spewed out hot air, turning the semi-enclosed parking lot into an oven. The temperature was at least three to four degrees higher than outside.
Everyone who could come to the parking lot was there. Since the electricity in the city had been cut off, the people who couldn't stand the harsh heat all hid in their cars. Now, only the air conditioners in the cars could still be turned on.
Lin Sanjiu only took two steps in the scorching air when she felt her back was drenched in sweat. Every car she passed by had frightened and unfamiliar faces. Some people were trying to make phone calls, some were crying uncontrollably with their children, and some were sleeping. Lin Sanjiu didn't know if they got dehydrated on the way to the parking lot. There were also people staring at her in astonishment. They didn't understand how she still had the strength to walk.
Even though they were surrounded by the cold air of the cars, many of them still had a hint of despair on their faces. The air conditioner in the car was just stalling for time. Once the fuel and electricity ran out, no one in the parking lot would be able to survive the horrifyingly high temperature outside the car.
Lin Sanjiu knew very well that she didn't have the ability to help the people in the cars. She only had five bottles of mineral water, three cans of cola, and a few packs of band-aids in her backpack. With that little water, she didn't know how long she could last. Lin Sanjiu clenched her teeth and suppressed the pity in her heart. She looked straight ahead and found the familiar Audi. She got into the car as if she was escaping.
After thinking for a while, she didn't turn on the air conditioner. Instead, she wound down the car window. Anyway, she wouldn't die from the heat. At most, she would feel a little uncomfortable. It was better to save the fuel and electricity for Zhu Mei. Lin Sanjiu wiped the sweat off her forehead and turned the steering wheel. The car slowly drove out of the parking lot.
Compared to the underground steamer in the parking lot, Lin Sanjiu felt a little better with the temperature of 56 ° C. The streets were empty. There were almost no cars on the road. Perhaps, no one wanted to waste the precious fuel and electricity.
The cars parked on both sides of the street were almost all the same. The people in the cars were enjoying the last bit of cold air with fear and despair.
Just as Lin Sanjiu sped past a red Mazda, a black figure suddenly flew from the right and slammed into the Audi's door with a dull thud.
