Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System-Chapter 235: Secrets of the Apocalypse

Alex's expression turned alarmed. He had some feelings for Coco, the little girl who always called him daddy. Coco's loyalty and dependence on him were undeniable. Now, with such a significant change in Coco, Alex couldn't help but feel deeply concerned.

Though Yang Zhimei suspected that Coco might be evolving, she wasn't entirely sure. Alex was most afraid that something major had happened to Coco, turning her into something else. After all, the area had recently experienced a nuclear leak, and under the influence of nuclear radiation, anything could happen.

Even Alex had noticed some peculiar changes in his body recently, and he wondered if it was due to the nuclear radiation. If Coco was indeed evolving, it might not necessarily be a good thing for Alex. Coco was already very powerful, and further evolution could lead to losing memories or even becoming a completely different person.

Coco was cherished by Alex precisely because of her current consciousness and the love and dependency she showed towards him. If she became someone else, it would be like losing Coco – something Alex didn't want.

"Take me to see Coco," Alex said with a solemn expression to Yang Zhimei.

Guided by Yang Zhimei, they all arrived in the basement. Coco was hanging upside down from the ceiling in a dark chamber, surrounded by white silk threads.

It looked somewhat like a mummy wrapped in bandages. The atmosphere in this chamber was eerie and terrifying, with spider webs and insects crawling everywhere, making it uncomfortable for anyone present. Seeing Alex frowning at the surroundings, Qianqian hurriedly explained, "Coco showed signs of light sensitivity recently. Any light would cause her a lot of pain, so we brought her to the basement.

This chamber was her own choice..."

Alex pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly, understanding the situation. Coco's current condition seemed increasingly like that of a vampire. It appeared that Coco's evolution might be heading towards becoming a true vampire.

"Let's not disturb Coco. Keep an eye on her, and make sure nothing happens to her," Alex instructed as he left the room, gently closing the door behind him. Once Blue, Qianqian, and the others had left, Alex took out the container with the Evil Whale King's embryo and handed it to Yang Zhimei, saying, "This is the offspring of an A-level zombie.

I've discovered that advanced mutant zombies can also reproduce. Study this carefully; it might provide significant insights in some aspects."

Upon hearing Alex's words, Yang Zhimei's eyes widened in panic. "What? Zombies can also reproduce?" As a top professor in biology, Yang Zhimei quickly realized the seriousness and implications of this revelation. If advanced zombies could indeed reproduce, the ongoing apocalypse crisis might be the evolutionary event she had previously speculated – the evolution of humans and animals.

However, the force driving this evolution was too sudden and violent, causing many people to be unable to bear it and turn into zombies. As for mutants and mutant zombies, it's highly likely that they are a new species—a species evolved from humans. If this speculation proves true, ordinary people without mutations could become a species eliminated by the world.

Although Yang Zhimei was now a powerful mutant, she still didn't want this speculation to be true. After all, she was originally an ordinary human. She didn't want the human species to be eliminated. In her heart, she genuinely hoped that the human species could continue to thrive and dominate the Earth.

However, reason told her that all these speculations might indeed be true. The apocalypse this time might not be a biochemical crisis or a natural disaster. Instead, it could be the will of the blue orb gradually awakening. The allegorical stories within the Red Skull seemed to be becoming more and more real—evolution tide. Could this apocalypse truly be caused by an evolution tide?

Had the prophet within the Red Skull truly sensed the will of the blue orb? Perhaps the prophecies in the Red Skull's Bible were not mere fabrications but genuine!

Yang Zhimei suddenly felt a dizzying sensation. Was the end of science truly theology? She even began to doubt herself.

"Zhimei, what's wrong?" Alex looked at Yang Zhimei with a puzzled expression. "Did you think of something?"

Yang Zhimei quickly shook her head, breaking free from her panic. She took the Evil Whale King's embryo that Alex handed her and carefully examined it.

The two exchanged a knowing glance, and Alex smiled, saying, "No matter what the future holds, we need to strengthen our abilities as soon as possible. I've noticed that recent exposure to nuclear radiation has caused various changes in people, animals, and plants. I don't know if this is good or bad, but I feel that the challenges we'll face in the future might become even more formidable."

"Ordinary people who haven't successfully mutated may find it increasingly difficult to survive in this environment. So, the progress on your evolution potion must be expedited," Alex emphasized.

Yang Zhimei nodded earnestly. Alex was right; there were countless possibilities for the development of the apocalypse, and speculating on their significance wasn't particularly meaningful. Only by making themselves stronger and raising their collective strength could they ensure the survival of their group and leave hope for humanity.

Suddenly, she felt that her research had gained more significance, and her motivation soared.

"I'll get to work! I have a feeling that this embryo can bring about unique changes for us! The secrets hidden within the offspring of A-level advanced zombies may be astonishing!" Yang Zhimei hugged Alex abruptly, then eagerly headed to the laboratory with the Evil Whale King's embryo in hand.

Alex smiled, nodded, and then turned to leave the underground laboratory.

Checking the time, there were still a little over two hours until the burial of the Evil Whale King's body was completed. Taking advantage of this break, Alex planned to inspect the development of the estate. According to Alex's previous plans and arrangements, it should have taken shape by now.
