"Holy shit, who the hell is crazy enough to not be able to swipe a card so late at night?!"

Su Mu roared without hesitation at this moment.

As if someone was heard in the room, the sound of swiping the card suddenly stopped.

After a while, what followed was...

Boom!Boom!Boom!
A suppressed, dull knock on the door sounded, which was particularly creepy in this quiet environment.

"Fuck, who is it? Say something! What the hell do you mean by knocking on the door?!"

Su Mu couldn't help but yell.

But the strange thing was that there was no sound coming from outside the door, only the suppressed and dull knocking sound continued.

And the sound became louder and louder, and finally it felt like someone was constantly banging his head against the door, trying to break it open at all costs, even if it meant breaking a bloody head!

At this moment, even though Su Mu was extremely thick-skinned, he realized something was wrong.

What normal person would knock on the door like this without making any sound?

Su Mu picked up the kettle beside him, stared at the door, and tried his best to lower his voice and said:
"Damn, Achen, are we going to run into a murderer?!"

"Notify the dorm manager."

Lin Chen's expression was unclear, but his hands did not slow down at all. He dialed the dormitory manager's number without hesitation.

As the security team of a top-notch university in the Federation of Human Civilization, they are retired special forces from various armies. Their combat effectiveness is not a problem and they can definitely test the depth of this fake person.

beep--

But at the moment the call was connected, the tide-like knocking sounds outside the door suddenly stopped.

Then, a chaotic sound of footsteps seemed to quickly fade away outside the door.

“Left…?”

"Perhaps that is the case."

Lin Chen hung up the phone casually.

"Damn, did you make some enemies, so that they come to your house at 8 o'clock in the evening?!" Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and said to Lin Chen.

"Put on your clothes first, and we'll deal with the rest later." Lin Chen glanced at him and said.

"That's right..." Su Mu nodded and was about to put on his clothes.

But I didn't expect that at this moment, there were hurried footsteps outside the door, and the door was knocked again:
"What happened, classmate? I was on patrol just now and saw you suddenly called, so I came over to ask."

The voice outside the door was fluent Mandarin, with a masculine tone.

Lin Chen and Su Mu listened to the voice and looked at each other.

Su Mu was about to put down the kettle and go to open the door, but Lin Chen suddenly pulled him back and asked coldly at the door:

"As far as I know, doesn't the dormitory manager have a corresponding spare room card for each dormitory? You can use the spare room card. We are busy right now and it is inconvenient to open it."

After hearing Lin Chen's words, the man outside the door was stunned for a moment, then adjusted his breathing and continued:
"Hello, I came up in a hurry this time and I didn't bring my room card. Could you please open the door for me?"

His voice remained steady.

However, this calm syllable and tone is very strange. It is obviously standard Mandarin, but they are all in the same tone. It sounds weird and inharmonious, giving people the feeling that... it is a tape recorder.

Su Mu couldn't help but look down at Lin Chen, who at this moment used his right hand to stop his body, and touched down along his naked body little by little, but he still said:
"Really? But why do I remember that the dormitory manager didn't have any so-called spare room cards for each dormitory? Instead, there was a master card that could be used to enter any dormitory by entering a password!"

As soon as these words were spoken, silence suddenly fell outside the door.

After a long while, a gloomy, lagging voice, as if filled with endless malice, came from outside the door:
"Why...why don't you want to open the door?!"

“Why! Why! Why!!!”

Bang!Bang!Bang!
The noise outside the door became more and more violent.

"Open the door! Open the door for me!!"

Boom!Boom!Boom!
The deafening sound of banging on the door rang out again. At this moment, the other party seemed to really not want to die and was banging on the door desperately!

"You can bump into things as much as you want. I have to remind you that if this happens inside the dormitory, it's fine. But if you do this outside, the dormitory manager will definitely rush over immediately if you have such abnormal behavior."

"My advice to you is, while the dormitory manager is away, go to the monitoring room and delete the surveillance footage of this floor tonight, otherwise your race will be exposed to the eyes of humans."

"I admit that your physical changes are very strange, but in today's human society, whether it's fingerprint identification, pupil judgment, or genetic comparison... are you sure you can hide yourselves in such a high technological civilization?"

"Once exposed, human weapons will be enough to exterminate your race! After all, a race similar to humans but with supernatural powers, the benefits contained in it are enough to drive humans crazy, and can you resist this madness?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound outside the door disappeared again, and deathly silence returned.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Mu said cautiously:
"Is he gone?"

"He must have left. The light in the door crack went out." Lin Chen replied.

"That's good... Damn it! Get your fucking hands off my ass and don't try to take advantage of me at this time... Ugh!"

Su Mu said unhappily, but before he finished speaking, his body suddenly froze in place.

He lowered his head blankly, and saw a fruit knife piercing straight through his chest!

"You, what are you doing..." Su Mu's face was full of disbelief.

But Lin Chen leaned against his back tightly, not giving him any chance to resist, and even leaned close to his ear and whispered:
"Don't resist. My knife has already pierced your heart. Even if you are a fake person, you will die for sure."

"Impossible, how did you find out what's wrong with me..."

"The texture of your butt isn't right. I've touched it many times, and it doesn't feel like silicone..."

Um? ? ? ! ! !

How many fucking times have you touched it to be able to tell the difference?!

"So that's how it is. I didn't expect that I would end up like this..."

The lively expression on Su Mu's face turned pale in an instant, and the muscles on his face were stiff as if he had died long ago, which was indescribably weird. "But it doesn't matter. You are being targeted by us, and you will die sooner or later..."

But before he could finish, he heard Lin Chen's sneer:
"You are really a fake! How could I possibly feel the difference? I was just tricking you. Not to mention that I am only piercing your chest, not your heart!"

what? !

Sumu's extremely pale face, as if he was about to die at any moment, suddenly froze and he looked down abruptly.

But at the moment he lowered his head, veins on Lin Chen's arms bulged, and he pulled out the knife at an unprecedented speed, and then took advantage of the moment when his neck was exposed when he lowered his head to pierce him completely!
puff!
Snapped!
In an instant, after a pull and a pull, blood gushed out.

Lin Chen let go of his hand, and the body fell directly to the ground.

He took advantage of the knock on the door to approach him, tied his body with his hands while he was talking, used words to attract his attention after stabbing him, and finally, took advantage of the moment when he was distracted to pierce his neck with a knife.

No word or action is redundant, everything is to prepare for the next step.

To be honest, the Su Mu in front of him was a little strange, but he hadn't revealed any flaws yet. Not to mention that in this technological society, if he acted based on suspicion alone, he probably wouldn't be able to escape jail time.

But it doesn’t matter, just cheat a little.

What if it's true? Even though I stabbed him, it didn't hit my heart.

If it's fake, wouldn't we have successfully eradicated a hidden danger?
Anyway, he might as well give it a try. Su Mu was his clone in his previous life, and they have a very good relationship in this life, so why not give it a try?

Since he was not the one who was injured, he acted decisively.

"It seems that this fake person climbed through the bedroom window to the living room, and then covered the bathroom door to pretend that he opened the door from outside..."

"However, the blood flow of this fake person is extremely slow. It seems that the vitality of the body is much lower than that of humans. Perhaps this can be used to disguise the time of death of the corpse."

"But there is more than one guy, there is a group. I can't fight him alone. I can only find a way to seek help from outside forces. I can use this corpse to win the trust of the top leaders..."

The sound of mumbling to oneself was heard in the house, along with the lights going out, the door opening and closing, and the sound of footsteps rapidly fading away, as if leaving this place.

Just as the footsteps gradually became less detectable and finally disappeared.

The fingers of the corpse of 'Sumu', who was supposed to be dead, actually moved slightly at this moment.

After a long while, the fake man whose heart and neck were completely pierced began to crawl on the ground, but he was not completely dead.

"Should we say that he is worthy of being the elite of human civilization? His decisiveness and wisdom far exceeded our original expectations."

"In addition to our inability to perceive, be smart, and learn, we are also superior to humans in strength, speed, self-healing, and reaction nerves. But even so, we are still not as good as humans... As expected, what the mother tree said is right. Only by devouring the human race can we pseudo-humans become completely perfect!"

"Fortunately, our fatal flaw is that, except for the top of our head and our entire body being blown to pieces, we are almost immortal, which is why this human was careless... We must quickly return to the mother tree where we were born, share our memories and abilities, and list it as a dangerous target... Hmm?!"

Su Mu got up from the ground and just raised his head, but suddenly froze.

Because at this moment, in the dark environment in front of him, an expressionless face was looking at him quietly.

"You're not leaving..."

puff!
The next moment, a knife pierced through his head without hesitation!

"Your race is still a little bit behind in playing tricks on humans..."

Lin Chen pulled out the knife expressionlessly.

He hadn't expected that the other party was not dead at first.

Fortunately, he had read too many novels and TV dramas in his previous life where the protagonist would appear or be resurrected as soon as the villain left. So whether in the world of immortal cultivation or here, he was used to pretending that he had left, and then stayed behind to spy on whether anything unusual happened.

Repeat this three or four times until there are no problems.

"Is this what they call a fake person..."

Lin Chen turned on the light, took a fruit knife, and cut open the chest muscles bit by bit:
"It's no different from human flesh and blood, but the blood flow rate is wrong, as if there's a problem with the heart's blood supply..."

puff!
The heart was completely pierced, but dark red blood was flowing out from the wound.

"The heart is also made of flesh and blood, but the blood flow rate is still wrong... It seems to be affected by the brain?"

As he cut open the wound on his crown, Lin Chen's eyes suddenly focused.

He could clearly see the damaged brain, but it did not look like flesh and blood. Instead, it felt like wood fiber.

"The weak point is the top of his head. His body looks like a human, but he does not have human perception and wisdom. However, he can obtain things through devouring. And the mother tree he mentioned... could it be - a human-species female tree?!"

This somewhat similar feature made Lin Chen recall the very unique creation of the Immortal Alliance in the world of immortal cultivation.

That is an alien species that was enlightened by the leaders of the Immortal Alliance of all generations through supreme magical powers. It can reproduce humans in large numbers and thus maintain the balance at the bottom of the immortal world. Now it actually appears here?

If you think about it carefully, it is not impossible. After all, when this world was created, not only the power of him and Lin Tianhang was invested, but also the old beings who escaped from the seal. It is impossible for them to disappear silently in this world. The pseudo-people who appeared here are the best proof.

However, this female tree should not be the kind of Immortal Alliance, but the ancient demon before it was enlightened, who devoured the creatures of the race through bionic intelligent species and stole the laws of the Tao!
"If that's the case, I'm a little curious about how this ancient demon tree exists in this soulless world?"

"Because the demons in the world of immortal cultivation all need to rely on spiritual energy, but so far in this world, I have not sensed any spiritual energy..."

Lin Chen hesitated for a moment, found a syringe from the room, took some blood from the fake person, and then injected it into his body.

With this dosage, even the most virulent virus would not cause any harm, not to mention that he still has a chip to control his body.

"Ding! Alien gene #&*Unknown virus detected... is invading the main body. Do you choose to expel it?!"

The chip in my brain instantly gave a warning at this moment.

Unknown virus, foreign gene?
Lin Chen's eyes moved and he said:
"What changes have occurred in the invaded body?"

"Ding! It was detected that the lifespan of the mutated red blood cells has been extended, the oxygen storage capacity has increased, and the nutrient storage is three times that of before. The protein on the surface of the white blood cells has mutated..."

"Deeper base pair changes, gene mutation direction... insufficient data to analyze."

"According to the existing results, after being invaded by an unknown virus with a foreign gene, the body's quality will be improved to 3 to 5 times the original, but the brain's nerve cells will be damaged by unknown influences. There is insufficient data on the specific damage, so it cannot be analyzed..."

"This is clearly a species created by the ancient demon tree. According to the records of the Immortal Alliance, once you come into contact with its flesh and blood, you will become a demon. This should be a derivative change of spiritual energy, but now it has become a gene and a virus..."

Lin Chen was thoughtful.
"So I boldly guess that this is the key to this world, the unknown and the known, the mysterious and the scientific, the so-called advent of the extraordinary, perhaps both sides are fighting for the right to define this world?" (End of this chapter)
