So did the monster that appeared in the heavy rain last night!"
He Shang frowned, shook his head and said, "Not to mention the water-man girl I met last night, at least the woman in white that You Ji and the others met was not human - although she was indeed in human form."
The Second Yama was noncommittal and said indifferently: "Then if I tell you that all the rain monsters known to Huangquan last night have roughly similar characteristics to humans... what would you think?"
He Shang's heart suddenly thought, and then he asked doubtfully: "This can't mean anything, can it?"
"Yeah, it really can't explain anything... But if you think about it carefully, among all the restricted areas we have explored so far, how many times have we encountered restricted area creatures that truly have 'abilities'?"
He Shang was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "There should be quite a few..." However, as he thought about it, his expression suddenly changed, "Wait a minute, think about it carefully, all the creatures with abilities we have encountered so far
, it seems that they are all in humanoid form..."
"No, no!" He quickly shook his head and denied, "I remembered, there are also other forms of forbidden creatures with extraordinary abilities! Whether they are animals or plants..."
"But they are few in number, aren't they?"
The Second Yama said, "And if you recall, most of the abilities of these forbidden creatures do not actually come from themselves, but are given by the rules of the forbidden zone. Once they break away from the rules, they are just ordinary ferocious beasts."
She said sternly, "Assuming that the news you got is true - human beings' extraordinary abilities did come from some kind of theft in the past, then according to this idea, there should be only two kinds of creatures with extraordinary abilities - "
"One is the creature whose abilities were once stolen by humans, and the other is humans themselves."
He Shang nodded. According to this guess, this may indeed be the case.
And in the next second, the Second Yama asked a question that completely stunned He Shang.
"Since it's a question of choosing one or the other, then why do you think some creatures in the restricted area have extraordinary abilities and are also humanoid?"
The air was quiet for a moment.
"You mean..." He Shang's mind went blank, and after a while he said in an unbelievable tone, "These forbidden creatures... are actually human beings?!"
——This is simply a shocking statement!
"I didn't say that." Second Yama said calmly, "Maybe they are the kind of creatures whose abilities have been stolen. Maybe they look very similar to humans."
He Shang breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "I think so. When I went to Dongyang City, there was a restricted area creature named Mu who had a good relationship with the tombkeeper. When Dongyang City captured her, she took
Some of her body tissues were tested and it was found that this guy is not human, and judging from genetic comparison, it is not at all like the same species as the equally inhuman Tomb Keeper."
"It is said that that guy also has a pair of blood-colored eyes that are not human-like, so he cannot be human."
"So, is there such a possibility..."
The Second Yama was silent for a long time, and suddenly he spoke calmly, and his voice exploded in He Shang's ears like thunder.
"Were they ever human?"
He Shang was stunned.
The Second Yama said: "To sum it up, this time the monsters in the rain appeared for certain specific people, and hunted the targets with absolute ability restraint, and some of their ability characteristics are similar to the rules of some restricted areas.
It seems to be a cobbled together product.”
"Patchworked together, they only appear at specific times, have specific hunting targets, and have so-called 'equipment' hidden in their bodies... Let's put all of this aside, but I still want to figure out why they are all humanoid.
Woolen cloth?"
"Did the rules of the restricted area piece together the monster, or was the monster once broken down into certain rules...and now put back together again?"
He Shang's heartbeat accelerated rapidly, he took a deep breath and said, "What on earth are you talking about..."
"Nothing, just some speculation - but it is not a good habit to blindly make judgments without sufficient information, so I won't say anything else."
The Second Yama exhaled and said calmly, "After all, there is a kind of creature called a god that has not yet been deciphered..."
He Shang's expression condensed.
The Second Yama continued: "Speaking of which, no humanoid taboo creature has been found to be truly human so far. Assuming that the tomb keeper is truly human... then he is undoubtedly a special case."
He Shang thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's a pity that this guy is too mysterious. I can't tell what he is thinking at all."
The second Yama didn't say anything, and after a while he suddenly asked: "Bald man, do you think there is such a possibility that the guy who stole abilities for human beings is actually the tomb keeper?"
"Probably not...it's too contradictory."
He Shang was stunned for a moment and said with some hesitation, "But that guy should at least know something about this matter, but it's a pity that he won't tell us."
"Yeah?"
The Second Yama said lazily, "Okay, if there is nothing else, today's communication will end here. Come back as soon as possible and be careful not to die on the road - everyone is waiting for you."
"Shut your crow mouth, I am immortal!"
He Shang cursed and was about to reply, but found that the communication had ended.
…
At the same time, in a room where no one could see anything, the dim light on the computer screen disappeared.
There was silence in the room, just endless darkness.
I don’t know how long it took, but a very soft voice sounded slightly lonely.
"What on earth are you thinking about?"
