Chapter 169 Desert, Humanity, and Ocean
There are also people like Ai Li and Karena who I don’t know about. I don’t know whether they were activated after the game started, or whether they were already living in the game as a normal world before the game started.
"What is NPC?" Kalina asked. Feng Chan explained it to her and felt incredulous.
"Are all these mermaids and fish fake? Are they manufactured?" Even though she is now at the purple level, she cannot imagine how much ability is required to achieve this level. The gold level is far from enough.
Feng Chan: "I'm not sure about that."
Kalena: "What about you? Players."
Feng Chan: "I've already answered your question. Now it's your turn to answer me. What did you talk about in there? Why are the mermaids in the sleeping cabins so strange?"
Karena: ...
"My ancestors, but if we were all just created, then perhaps they never existed and have always been just corpses?"
Feng Chan: "It's not just that. What happened when you came back early today?"
Before Kalena could get upset, Feng Chan added, "It's a good deal for us to exchange information, isn't it? I'm sure there's more you want to know."
Kalina wanted to use force, but in order to have a good conversation with the other party and make her feel at ease, she deliberately chose to go outside the city. Now it was too late to regret.
"I went to the Dark Zone."
Feng Chan didn't respond and waited for her next words.
"I was leading people to look for Ronnie, but was ambushed by someone close to me. However, I woke up early, otherwise I wouldn't know about this." Karina was very confused now. She was still feeling unbelievable fear because of the cruel reality she encountered.
But now all this might just be set up, and she was confused again.
If it's all fake, does she still need to care about it...
It turns out that there is a group of people in the dark area who are mutated but not mutated. They used to be humans living on land, but because the natural environment was destroyed, the land is no longer suitable for human survival, so they have no choice but to go to the sea.
However, biological self-evolution is slow. Even if humans are given another 100 years, it is impossible to complete evolution in such a short time.
So humans developed a potion that could turn people into half-human, half-fish. However, the technology was immature at first, and many deformed humans appeared. Many people died, and the number even exceeded the number of people who died due to environmental reasons.
It was a crazy era. If you dared to go out in broad daylight, there was a high chance that you would be caught and used as a guinea pig for drug testing.
There was not much progress in the drug for five or six years, but in the seventh year a private research institute announced that the drug it had developed was successful.
After seeing the results, everyone found that they were indeed very close to the ideal of a person who could live in water, and their appearance could even become more beautiful.
Faced with the increasingly difficult land environment in which survival is taking place, potions are produced in large quantities and humans rush to buy them. After taking them, one can completely transform into a mermaid in just three days.
Before this, some official research institutes were skeptical about this drug, but the public could no longer wait.
Everyone went to the ocean in a group, but found that the garbage left by humans was floating everywhere. The ocean environment was not as good as expected, the new body was not as flexible, and the fish were difficult to catch. Moreover, in the face of the reduction of fish due to the deteriorating environment, sometimes everyone had to rely on snatching.
People who have fantasies of a better life in the future began to clean up the garbage in the ocean.
The first group of people who went to the sea did live better than on land, but within less than half a year, their genes were disrupted, and their beautiful faces and fish tails became deformed.
Everyone wanted to cause trouble for the research institute, but they had turned into fish and could no longer get ashore. The few people who were still on shore told them that the research institute had long been deserted.
There was no corpse, and he didn't go into the sea. He just disappeared overnight, but he left behind a lot of potions.
As the land becomes completely desertified, the last people on land have no food and can only take medicine and go into the sea. For the sake of mankind, no, for the continuation of mermaids, many researchers continue to study medicine on the seabed.
After unremitting efforts, the researchers finally developed a drug that can stabilize the genes in the body, but everyone found that the underwater world seemed to have changed. The attack, speed and defense of the fish were greatly enhanced.
Gene stabilization drugs are not perfect. They will not change your appearance back after taking them. They will only stabilize your current appearance. If you are already deformed, you will live with the deformity until you die.
But the good news is that the little mermaids were born in normal form.
Human beings are the dominant power on land and also want to be the dominant power in the ocean, but the rapidly changing ocean has dealt a heavy blow to everyone.
Some fish can talk, and some fish will hunt mermaids.
In order to allow the mermaids to survive and gain a foothold in the ocean, a new round of research and mice appeared.
The Dark Zone is such an existence. As more and more deformed mermaids disappear, more and more normal mermaids appear.
Normal mermaids gradually underwent mutations along with other marine creatures. They gained abilities and their lifespan, which was originally only 100 years, slowly increased.
In order to build a perfect mermaid kingdom, the Dark Zone deliberately hid itself, but that does not mean it will not intervene. The Shiori family is the hand of the Dark Zone, and it lost control in the middle, but fortunately it was stabilized in the end.
It seems like there is some substance in the ocean, and it is changing so fast that even the fish have learned human language. It seems that mermaids occupying the ocean has become a fantasy.
The ocean became cleaner and cleaner due to the cleaning of the mermaids. There were more fish and life became better. The mermaids began to be content with the status quo and just enjoy themselves.
The people in the dark zone took action again. This time the research subjects were no longer limited to mermaids. Those fish that had become intelligent were brought in for research. However, if one of them was not controlled well, some artificial stray fish appeared.
But the effect was unexpectedly good. The mermaids began to focus on improving their strength to fight against the dangers outside. Even tribal forces began to emerge, and gradually developed into the current city.
Some things that cannot be explained by science gradually appeared in the underwater world. Many of them were not created by the dark zone. They couldn't understand them, so they called them natural phenomena and followed the laws of nature.
However, research on the dark zone has never stopped, and many mermaids or fish disappear every year. Instruments are deliberately used to form undercurrent vortexes around the dark zone to prevent other creatures from approaching.
With the support of the Dark Zone, the Shioli family's strength has been growing step by step. Now, hundreds of years have passed, and it has become the largest family among the mermaids. In time, it will be able to unify all mermaids and even the entire ocean world.
The land seemed to have regained some vitality, and humans appeared again.
The people in the dark zone couldn't believe it. They had been researching day and night to survive, even turning into monsters and killing so many of their compatriots. Now they were told that they could live on land again?
And now, for some unknown reason, the number of humans on land has increased sharply, and they even dare to go into the sea to provoke.
The mission of unifying the ocean was not completed yet, and they had another mission added: they wanted to kill all humans on the shore, because only they were worthy of using the land.
