Chapter 72: Evolution Lock?

  Wu Xiaotian smiled as he watched Duan Yue push open the door and enter, looking at his healthy appearance now, Wu Xiaotian knew that his efforts had not been in vain, Duan Yue was successfully pulled back from the brink of death by him.

  "Are you awake?"

  "Ah, I'm awake now!"

  Wu Xiaotian's weak voice almost brought tears to Duan Yue's eyes, but Duan Yue didn't thank him. He just buried this matter deeply in his heart.

  The two men exchanged a glance and a smile, everything was understood without words. Wu Xiaotian knew that if he were to die, Duan Yue would also risk his own life to save him, because they were brothers, forever and ever brothers!

  Turning his head to look at Du Ziteng who was smiling and laughing, Wu Xiaotian asked him: "What are you doing here?"

  "How can I not be here? This is not your home!"

  Although Wu Xiaotian had just woken up and was still weak, Du Ziteng couldn't help but bicker with him. This habit was irreversible, as the two of them had been bickering for five years already.

  With a disdainful gaze, Wu Xiaotian looked at Du Ziteng and was too lazy to argue with him anymore. After all, Wu Xiaotian didn't even have the strength to lift his hand now, and even leaning against the headboard required Liu Ting's help.

  But what about Liu Ting at this time? She is now like a kitten lying on Wu Xiaotian's body and refusing to get up!

  Gulu gulu

  The voice from Wu Xiaotian's abdomen made Liu Ting sit up, and after looking at Wu Xiaotian's helpless expression, her body instantly disappeared!

  Liu Ting's disappearance shocked Duan Yue and Du Ziteng, with Du Ziteng being the first to ask Wu Xiaotian: "Where is Liu Ting?"

  "Guess!"

  This answer left Du Ziteng speechless, if it were in the past, he would definitely say "Guess whether I guess or not!" and the two would start guessing endlessly. But now, Du Ziteng could only look up at the sky in silence. As for Wu Xiaotian, he was like a victorious child who was about to jump up.

  "Alright, stop messing around, just say it!"

  Duan Yue came out to mediate like a good old man, and Wu Xiaotian also adjusted his expression and said to Duan Yue and Du Ziteng: "Liu Ting is now an Evolver too, this is one of her abilities, it's the legendary Instant Movement!"

  "What?!"

  The two of them shouted in unison, but Wu Xiaotian hadn't finished speaking yet.

  "Liu Ting also had an ability, which was to turn invisible and..."

  Before Wu Xiaotian could finish speaking, Du Ziteng kept banging his head against the wall with his brain, and his mouth was still reciting: "Why? If I had this ability, it would be great!"

  Duan Yue became calm and ignored Du Ziteng who was still muttering to himself, asking Wu Xiaotian: "So what is your evolutionary ability?"

  "I? My evolution direction seems to be all-around evolution, and my special ability is controlling lightning!"

  "So, this idiot who keeps hitting the wall can transform into Baihu?"

  "Yes!"

  After hearing Wu Xiaotian's answer, Duan Yu stopped talking and Wu Xiaotian also remained silent, because he knew that Duan Yu had fallen into deep thought. He was now watching with great interest the continuously colliding Du Ziteng against the wall, counting in his heart how many times he had collided.

  The feeling of weakness made Wu Xiaotian very uncomfortable, but it was just weakness. If he were a normal person, having lost so much blood, he would have been dead long ago and couldn't die again!

  "By the way, are the three of you evolving in the same way?"

  Duan Yue stopped thinking and asked Wu Xiaotian.

  "It's different, I evolved after killing the first mutated zombie, that idiot who crashed into the wall evolved after eating a tiger, and Liu Ting is a bit strange, originally she didn't get evolution energy from killing zombies, but after I saved her once, she started evolving after killing zombies, and the evolution energy I got is also different from Liu Ting's, mine is pure black evolution energy, while hers is milky white evolution energy!"

  "Well, I've come to a conclusion now. Do you want to hear it?"

  Du Ziteng stopped banging his head against the wall after hearing this and almost simultaneously said with Wu Xiaotian: "Don't be mysterious, speak!"

  "The conclusion I've drawn is a bit bold, after all, it hasn't been put into practice yet, but it's about 80-90% accurate. The conclusion is that every survivor can evolve, but the way they evolve is different, and the way to trigger evolution is also different!"

  He paused for a moment, looked at Wu Xiaotian and Du Ziteng's expressions, and continued: "And this way of opening evolution is like a lock. This lock is different for everyone, and only after finding the key can you open this evolutionary lock. And you're lucky to have found that key to unlock evolution!"

  With a thoughtful nod, Wu Xiaotian asked: "For example, Liu Ting's key to unlocking the evolution lock is my blood, and Du Ziteng's lock was unlocked by that old tiger's 'magic core'! But what about me? I killed an ordinary zombie and a crippled mutant zombie, and then I unlocked this evolution lock!"

  After hearing Wu Xiaotian's question, Duan Yue directly replied: "Before you absorbed the first strand of evolution energy, was there any abnormal situation that occurred?"

  Wu Xiaotian recalled the situation when he killed his first zombie, then said to Duan Yue: "Yes! When I killed my first zombie, I accidentally drank some of its blood!"

  "Now, there are two possibilities for the key to unlock your evolution: 1. D virus - you drank zombie blood and were definitely infected with this damn D virus, but before it started infecting you, you killed a zombie and unlocked the evolution lock, so you're fine! 2. Mutated zombie - killing the first ordinary zombie didn't unlock the evolution lock, but after killing a mutated zombie, your evolution lock was directly unlocked!"

  Du ZiTeng heard Duan Yue's analysis and couldn't help but ask: "What about me? What about me?"

  Duan Yue turned his head and looked at Du Ziteng, then said: "Tell me about your situation with that old tiger!"

  "Okay, after that tiger was struck dead by lightning, I..."

  After listening to Du ZiTeng's words, Duan Yue directly said out the answer.

  Your way of unlocking the evolution lock is a bit simple, the key lies in that "magic core", because after you ate the tiger's flesh and blood, nothing changed, but when you ate that magic core, something happened, so I can conclude that the key to your evolution lock is the tiger's "magic core"!

  "Oh, I see!"

  Du ZiTeng's admiration for Duan Yue grew deeper, although he had known that Duan Yue was a clever person, but didn't know his brain was so flexible. After obtaining just this little information, he could draw such a reasonable conclusion. He felt fortunate that Duan Yue wasn't an enemy, but rather a brother to him and Wu XiaoTian!
