Everyone paid great attention to what was about to happen and watched eagerly, wanting to know what the final outcome would be.
In actuality, there was already an intense debate on the Underground World's network.
Would the Executor still possess the corresponding rationality after the Surface World? Would he still be a member of the human race?
Everyone paid great attention to this matter and felt quite curious.
After all, everyone greatly desired to evolve.
However, if the price to obtain this power was to lose one's rationality, or even change one's logic and thoughts to become completely different, then perhaps many people would be hesitant about it.
As such, everyone paid great attention to what the Executors were going to do next.
Under their gazes, Chen Heng silently walked forwards.
Standing there and looking at the unlocked door, Chen Heng hesitated for a moment before walking in.
After walking in, the scenery inside began to unfold in front of him.
Under Chen Heng's gaze, everything seemed incredibly calm.
Some of the buildings were still standing, and many of them were still in operation.
The machines that had been left here allowed this place to operate on its own. If there was not much damage, it could last for ten or so years.
Chen Heng strode forward and walked in.
Under his gaze, the surroundings did not seem to have changed much from what he remembered.
However, with Chen Heng's sharp senses, he could sense that there were strange auras appearing all around him, and they were incredibly clear.
Indeed, someone had come here before.
From the looks of it, it was most likely not long ago.
This was something that the previous owner of this body had never encountered before.
In the memories of his predecessor, in the past five years, this base had not encountered any outsiders. Even if there were some foreign creatures that came to visit, they were mostly mutant beasts.
As for other survivors, he could not find them at all.
In the past, apart from his parents, he was the only one here.
After his mother had died and his father had gone missing, he should have been the only one who knew about this place.
He had never thought that there would be other people here.
"Moreover, this aura …"
Sensing that aura in the air, Chen Heng inwardly frowned before continuing forwards.
As he got closer, some traces slowly appeared in front of him.
They were very clear footprints.
On the originally clean ground, there were some messy footprints everywhere.
There were clear bloodstains on these footprints, as if they were dyed with blood.
From the looks of it, the person who came in from the outside world seemed to be seriously injured.
Looking at these bloody footprints, Chen Heng frowned and slowly walked forwards.
Under his gaze, the bloody footprints in front of him became clearer.
It seemed that the further they went, the clearer the bloody footprints became. The bloodstains on them were also fresher, as if they had been left not too long ago.
Not too long after, Chen Heng walked to a corner.
In the corner, everything was dark and gloomy.
After coming here, a dense stench of blood came from the side, causing Chen Heng to frown.
Thus, he turned around and looked forward.
He pressed the switches around him and turned on the lights.
The pale white light shone in all directions, illuminating the entire place.
Then, in the next moment, a shadow flashed by and darted past from the side.
Chen Heng could vaguely see what was going on.
That shadow seemed to move very quickly, but in actuality, it was a humanoid silhouette.
It was as if it was a person.
It was a survivor nearby.
It was just that compared to a normal person, this person looked quite strange and gave off an aura that made Chen Heng feel uncomfortable.
"What is that?"
"A person?"
In front of the screen in the Underworld, the middle-aged man gazed at the flashing figures on the screen. He seemed to recall something and became silent.
On the screen, Chen Heng's figure was still slowly walking forwards.
He approached the corner where the figure was and slowly walked to the front of the corner.
Along with his movements, the scene in the corner gradually appeared.
A figure was squatting there, squatting there.
From the looks of it, it seemed to be a girl. At this moment, her entire body was trembling, and her body would contort from time to time. It was a very strange sight.
Blood was still seeping out of her body, slowly dripping from her skin and flowing to the outside.
The clothes on her body had long been soaked in blood. It looked like it was covered in blood, and it was impossible to tell her original appearance.
Silently squatting in the corner, she hugged her knees with her arms. Her whole body was trembling, and her whole body was shaking.
"You … Are you alright …"
Looking at her like this, Chen Heng frowned and hesitated before asking, "Why are you here?
As soon as he finished speaking, he did not receive any response.
However, as if sensing Chen Heng's approach, the girl slowly raised her head.
Following her movements, everyone in front of the screen saw her face clearly.
It was an incredibly horrifying face.
Purely from the outline, she seemed to be a normal girl, but the skin on her face was exceptionally stiff and pale. There was an indescribable green color on it, as if she was a corpse that had died a long time ago. It was exceptionally terrifying.
At that moment, her face was as pale as paper, and her eyes were wide open as if her eyeballs were going to fall out of their sockets.
Among them, a stream of bloody tears slowly dripped down, gradually dyeing her face red.
Even though she still looked like a human, she was still moving. However, she looked incredibly horrifying, and anyone who saw her would have nightmares.
"Roar!"
A low roar sounded out.
The instant the girl raised her head, her body suddenly moved as she gave a low roar.
A pale arm stretched out towards Chen Heng's neck, as if it wanted to break Chen Heng's neck in one blow.
Chi …
A clear sound rang out.
A slender arm stretched out and grabbed the girl's arm. Then, a huge force burst out and pressed her down.
With a light bang, the girl was pressed to the ground by Chen Heng without any mishaps.
Following this, the girl fell to the ground and did not continue to attack. She just lay there, continuously twitching.
"Kill …"
"Kill … me …"
A faintly discernible voice sounded out from in front of Chen Heng, sounding incredibly weak and hoarse.
Hearing this voice, Chen Heng lowered his head and looked at the girl in front of him.
She seemed to sense Chen Heng's gaze, and a human-like look of struggle appeared on her face, no longer as stiff as before.
After that, she seemed to have regained some of her rationality, and her blood-red eyes stared at Chen Heng as she continuously spoke.
"Please … You … Kill me …"
Lying on the ground, the hoarse voice sounded out.
Under the faint white light, the girl had a pleading look on her face as she looked at Chen Heng.
She looked like she was in great pain, and her entire body continuously twitched as she howled, looking incredibly pitiful.
Even though he had never truly experienced what she was feeling, just by looking at her and listening to her miserable screams, he could feel the extreme pain she was in.
"As expected …"
Within the underground world, on the screen, the middle-aged man lightly sighed and explained to the others, "What we're seeing right now is a typical mutation reaction …
"Ever since the mutant beasts appeared, the world's environment has started to change.
"Because of this change in environment, many creatures have mutated. Some creatures like rats have become mutant rats, and human corpses have become zombies …
"Living people can also be infected by the mutant beasts' aura because of this change in environment, causing some sort of mutation.
"The situation in front of us is a reaction to the mutation …"
He pointed at the girl on the screen and lightly sighed, "After the mutation, a person's organs will gradually melt and turn into blood, which will seep out of their skin. They will also continuously vomit until they vomit out all of their organs.
"In the end, even the person's brain will die, and the corpse will become an empty shell. It is incredibly terrifying.
"This sort of situation has happened many times before people left the underground world, and there has never been a cure.
"However, this girl seems to be in the late stages of the mutation.
"Before the mutation started, perhaps she still had some rationality, which was why she found this place and wanted to hide.
"However, now that the mutation has started, her rationality has started to fade. It seems that she is not far from death."
Standing on the spot, the middle-aged man paused for a moment before continuing, "Even though this isn't in line with humanitarianism, in fact, if you really encounter such a situation, I suggest that it's best to take the initiative to kill them."
"This is not a murder but a form of release for the other party.
"During the mutation process, mutated humans will suffer immense pain.
"This pain is many times more intense than the pain of a mother giving birth.
"As such, if you encounter such a situation, giving the other party a quick death is the best choice."
He sighed before adding, "In fact, after the mutated person dies, you must be careful and cremate the corpse to ensure safety.
"Otherwise, if you come into contact with the blood and tissues left behind by the mutated person, you might also be infected and become the next mutated person.
"I'm sure that when we return to the surface world in the future, we will see many similar things.
"But now, let us see what choice our Executor will make in this situation."
Speaking to there, he did not continue and looked at the screen, silently waiting for Chen Heng's next move.
Everyone in the underground world was silent as they felt an indescribable heaviness in their hearts.
The image displayed in front of them had been cut, and some key parts had already been marked to conceal it.
But even so, through the scene shown on the screen, they could still feel the girl's pain and despair.
For a moment, many people's hearts were exceptionally silent.
Facing mutations, humans would also go through mutations.
From how the underground world's researchers saw it, perhaps it was because of this mutation that Chen Heng had gone through such a transformation and gained such great power.
However, it was evident that this sort of transformation was rare.
For most ordinary people, if they went through a mutation, they would most likely end up like this girl.
After all, most people did not have the luck and willpower to complete a complete metamorphosis.
On the other side.
Standing there by himself and looking at the girl struggling in pain, Chen Heng fell silent.
In the end, as everyone watched, he silently stretched out his hand.
"Let's try …"
Looking at the girl in front of him, he thought to himself.
Facing such a person, there was not much he could do.
However, no matter if it was out of pity or for other reasons, he would do his best to try to help her.
As if sensing Chen Heng's thoughts, the Divinity representing Light started to give off light within his body. A massive amount of power appeared, and under Chen Heng's will, it started to move.
A Divine Art was drawn out and released at this moment.
Following this, Chen Heng watched on as a faint white light flashed around Chen Heng's body and covered the area in front of him.
Under Chen Heng's will, the white light covered the girl's entire body.
Following this, a shocking scene unfolded.
The divine skill's power was released, and boundless divine power flowed out from Chen Heng's Divinity.
Following this, the girl's body started to go through changes.
In the blink of an eye, her aura started to change, and the strange aura was expelled.
Inside her body, the originally damaged tissues and organs began to gradually recover under the support of a wave of power, and her condition slowly improved.
The blood that was flowing ceaselessly began to stop.
The melted organs started to grow.
Under the cover of the faint white light, the girl's body no longer trembled, nor did she struggle like before. At a glance, it was as if she had regained her calm.
Under Chen Heng's gaze, she lay there, her eyes closed.
Even his originally pale face seemed to have recovered a little after the strange aura was expelled. Even though it was still pale, at least it was no longer like before, like a corpse.
She silently lay on the ground as if she had fallen asleep. She looked very peaceful and calm.
Only now did the divine skill's light around Chen Heng's body slowly fade.
Following this, he looked at the girl in front of him.
After the strange aura from before was expelled, the girl's appearance was much more normal.
At the very least, she now looked like a normal person. Compared to before, she looked completely different.
It seemed that the divine skill's effects were very useful in this situation. At the very least, it could maintain her life and allow her to temporarily return to normal.
However, the price was that Chen Heng's divine power was greatly expended.
Of course, this was not a big deal.
At the very least, thanks to this world, the divine power in his body was rapidly growing. Almost every moment, the number of faith threads in his body was increasing by the tens of thousands.
With such a large number, even though most of the faith threads were not very sturdy, it was enough for Chen Heng to accumulate a large amount of divine power.
At the very least, if Chen Heng wanted to, he could use high-level healing skills at any time and would not expend much divine power at all.
Such a large amount of divine power was his greatest source of confidence.
The amount of divine power that he used to cast divine skills was just a drop in the ocean.
"This feeling …"
After saving the girl, Chen Heng paused.
At that moment, he sensed the changes in his body.
In his body, along with his previous actions, a large amount of faith power seemed to be surging madly into his body.
The massive amount of faith energy once again increased, and threads of faith continuously appeared within Chen Heng's body.
To a certain extent, the number of faith threads that Chen Heng had gained over the past few days was not as great as this.
These changes caused Chen Heng's body to pause. Even though he had expected this, he still felt quite shocked.
"Unbelievable, unbelievable!"
In front of the massive data platform, seeing Chen Heng use the divine skill, all of the researchers seemed to have gone mad as they stared at it.
Looking at Chen Heng's image, their minds were completely blank.
"He saved a mutated person; just how did he do it?"
"Could it be that humans who successfully evolve not only have great power but can also do such a thing?"
