Wizard's Journey

Chapter 893 Evolved Humans

"Hehehe, Situ Mo?"

The military region commander was in good health and full of energy. Situ Mo's intuition told him that this was a stronger evolved human. Without hesitation, Situ Mo saluted and said, "Yes, my name is Situ Mo!"

"Um."

Nodding, glancing at the few details about Situ Mo in the document, the military district director tossed the document onto the table.

"When was the intermediate evolution discovered? How many days ago?"

A pair of unfathomable eyes stared directly at Situ Mo, making Situ Mo involuntarily think of the two-colored eyes in the mirror. Startled, he dared not meet their gaze. Situ Mo said in a low and sorrowful voice, "It's been three days. Ever since I returned after reporting to the military region about the ape-man tribe I discovered nearby, and on the same day I learned of my wife and daughter's deaths, I discovered the evolution of my body."

Situ Mo's sorrowful expression was completely genuine.

Hiss, whew...

The old director exhaled a puff of his pipe and nodded in understanding.

"Well, apart from the previous generation of genetically evolved humans, many evolved humans suddenly evolved after experiencing intense crises and losing control of their emotions. The former spirit humans will all be replaced by evolved humans who are more adapted to the chaotic apocalypse environment in the future. The path of spiritual energy technology evolution, which has been eroded by the chaotic fog, is no longer suitable for the needs of this world. Congratulations on becoming a member of the evolved humans. In the future, the evolved humans in this world will surely rise again."

His encouraging words were just empty platitudes.

Even without access to some high-level secrets, just from some rumors at the bottom, Situ Mo understood the terrifying situation faced by the spirits or evolved humans in the chaotic apocalypse.

Leaving aside those terrifying chaotic world creatures rumored to be devils, the super-evolved lord-level S-class invincible and terrifying creatures of this world, as well as the subterranean people, sea people, and ancient dragon people who have emerged, are all biological groups that are more adapted to the chaotic apocalypse than evolved humans. There are quite a few groups that can be compared with evolved humans. As for the ape-man groups similar to those explored a few days ago, there are almost tens of thousands of them scattered around. If one goes extinct today, two more will be born tomorrow.

This world is in such chaos because of the swirling fog that it's uncertain whether the spirit beings can continue their lineage...

"Yes, Director, I will dedicate my life to the rise of evolved humans!"

Situ Mo roared loudly, these words coming from the bottom of his heart.

"Hehehe, not bad, young man. This ever-changing era is also an era of heroes, and it needs spirited young men like you. Xiao Li, test his vitality and energy, and register it with the military region."

Inside the room, besides two evolved human guards, there were more than a dozen civilian staff members next to the military district director. This Xiao Li was the female secretary next to the director, who seemed to be an evolved human with some special abilities.

Her black-rimmed glasses reflected some light spots, obscuring Xiao Li's pupils. Her well-fitting white military uniform accentuated her graceful and tall figure. A touch of green on her pale cheeks gave her a cool yet alluring look, befitting the aesthetic of the Spirit Race.

"Vitality: 28, Energy: 0".

After looking at Situ Mo for a while, Xiao Li said two brief figures in a low voice.

"Not bad, he has only just mutated and evolved, and his vitality has already reached twenty-eight. Hehehe, that's even stronger than some veteran evolved humans. Hmm, file Situ Mo's evolution data with the military region. Remember to come over for evaluation and assessment every month from now on. The assessment data is related to your military region benefits."

With that, the director waved his hand, indicating that Situ Mo could leave.

After Situ Mo left the room, Xiao Li suddenly whispered, "Chief, he probably hasn't even fully unleashed his life potential yet."

"Oh? How much of a performance did you give?"

The director became interested, and the others next to him also looked at Xiao Li with surprise. 28 points of vitality was not weak among the evolved humans in the base. Spirit humans who could raise their vitality to more than 15 points were all considered to be evolved humans.

"A quarter or a fifth, or even less!"

"Are you kidding me!?"

An office worker in the room blurted out, then realized his lapse in composure and shut his mouth. However, the office worker's suspicions clearly represented those of everyone present, including the director.

"real?"

Xiao Li nodded calmly, without replying.

"Oh? That's great! It seems we'll have one more C-level evolved human in the base, plus two B-level evolved humans. Our Savior Plan will have an even better chance of success, hahaha. Li, take good care of this newcomer during this time, arrange some training tasks for him, and fully unleash his potential. I think he's quite good..."

Towards the end, the director even adopted a somewhat joking tone.

A hint of shyness flashed across Li Qingya's face. Whenever a decent evolved human appeared, this director, who was like a father to her, would always make arrangements, which was really embarrassing.

All the high-ranking officers in the military region held the director in high esteem.

Besides representing the strongest military force in the region, it was also related to his savior plan...

While other bases, including those with A-level evolved humans or even the legendary S-level evolved humans, were still struggling and wavering in the chaotic apocalypse, this director had already launched the Savior Plan within this relatively closed base, striving to save the civilization of the Spirit People and Evolved Humans.

……

A month later.

Huff, huff, huff, huff...

Following Li Qingya's instructions, Situ Mo ran wildly across the military district's training ground at night, accompanied by all the military district's evolved humans. This allowed the evolved humans to more effectively absorb the relatively gentle chaotic fog of the night and accumulate enough energy to complete their self-evolution.

Chaotic mist is a slow poison for ordinary spirits, but for evolved humans and many creatures that have adapted to the chaotic apocalypse, it is the source of evolution and power.

A full hour later, the many evolved humans dispersed. Situ Mo, panting and sweating, held a wet towel and looked at the list of evolved humans' test results from the previous month. This was the driving force behind his struggle during his rise to power.

Situ Mo, Vitality: 56, Yuan Energy: 0, Ranking: 276.

There are over 700 evolved humans registered in the military region. In just one month, Situ Mo's number surged from over 500 to 276, demonstrating his immense potential and attracting the attention of many evolved humans in the military region, who consider him a competitor.

Anyone whose life force or elemental energy exceeds 100 is removed from the lowest-level D-class evolved human status and becomes a C-class evolved human. At this time, there are only eighteen such people in the entire base, and there are only two B-class evolved humans with more than two hundred.

"Tired?"

Li Qingya neither liked nor disliked Situ Mo.

However, besides his enormous potential, his spirit of dedicating everything to the spirits was unknowingly attracting Li Qingya. Coupled with some caring words from the director, she also gradually became closer to him.

"Um."

Panting, Situ Mo had become familiar with this rare evolved human with elemental energy in the base over the past month, and couldn't help but ask habitually, "How is it? Has my life force increased?"

"Hmm, it's already seventy-one. Your life potential is truly astonishing. Apart from the director ten years ago, I have never found such an evolved human with such amazing potential in the base. I was quite surprised when I first saw you."

Li Qingya smiled and said, "If things continue like this, you will soon become a C-level evolved human. You will be more capable of protecting the base, and you will also have higher authority within the base, knowing about some of the base's advanced plans."

"Just a C-class evolved human...?"

Situ Mo smiled and said, "What should I do if I want to become a B-level evolved human like the director?"

Li Qingya frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Although your potential is amazing, it is far from reaching the level of a B-grade evolved human. The director also became a B-grade evolved human today through years of training and continuous absorption of Chaos Crystal Cores. So after you unleash your full potential, you should also try hunting mutated beasts outside to obtain Chaos Crystal Cores for evolution. This is the only way we evolved humans know... well, for now, for rapid evolution."

Thinking of the savior plan, Li Qingya revised her words, her eyes filled with excitement.

Is this the only way to evolve rapidly?

Unable to contain himself, Situ Mo thought of the sacrificial contract on his chest, and the low, hoarse laughter that still rang out precisely at midnight every night.

No, I must not break this demonic seal. I must save this world as an evolved human. I can do it!

Keeping himself encouraged, Situ Mo smiled and made double the contact after Li Qingya left.

Time passed unnoticed, and the chaotic apocalypse was undergoing countless changes. For Situ Mo, the fulfilling and passionate days of hard work finally arrived. After becoming the nineteenth C-level evolved human in the base and reaching 112 points of vitality, Situ Mo clearly felt that his accumulated training could no longer provide him with high-speed evolution.

"It's time to go out hunting and obtain Chaos Cores!"

"Hehehehe, have you reached your limit, you lowly creature? Beg for my forgiveness, offer your life, and you will gain even greater power..."

Situ Mo ignored it.
