Serhi chuckled and said, "This is because Ikaris's sense of mission is stronger than any of us, and his attitude towards mutants has always been to kill them all.

Besides, he didn’t know that this mutant had the ability to heal itself, otherwise he wouldn’t have let it escape.

I can tell you responsibly that Ikaris will have absolutely no problems.”

Ling Ge: "...

Well! I was judging others by my own standards. "

870. The Eternals Being Treated as Prey, the Missed Key

"This morning, an unprecedented global earthquake shook countries around the world, causing damage and panic, with many speculating it was linked to the finger snap, and the United Nations called for an emergency meeting..."

Ling Ge turned off the TV, poured himself a glass of water, and complained, "It's always like this. When it comes to supernatural phenomena, the explanations are always vague."

Clang!

Spike took out a sharp dagger from the drawer, and the sound when she pulled it out of the scabbard was particularly crisp.

Ling Ge's eyes lit up and he said jokingly, "It's a good thing, but using this weapon against mutants will only delay your death by a few seconds."

"That's better than not being able to hold out for even a second!" Spike symbolically waved his dagger twice and said helplessly, "Who made me rank second to last in terms of combat power among the Eternals!"

"Ah!" Ling Ge sighed, took out the Birth Destroyer Gun and pushed it over, "Use it for self-defense. It's better than a knife. Maybe it can help you hold on for ten or twenty more seconds."

"Thanks." Spike took the weapon excitedly, then frowned, "Are you short of bullets? That's too stingy!"

"The reserves are limited, you'd better use them sparingly." Ling Ge said unhappily, and took out another can of cell coins and handed it over. This was because he had enough strength now. If it were in the past, there would be no way she could waste the cell coins like this.

"That mutant has the ability to heal itself, has intelligence, and can speak. They couldn't do that before." Serhi said solemnly, "Why is it coming for us instead of humans? What's going on?"

"Either we eliminate the threat or we pick the weak ones first.

There is nothing wrong with it doing this. After all, you Eternals are the biggest enemies of the mutants. It will always be better to strike first before the enemy destroys them.

Or... there must be enough benefit, otherwise it would not risk appearing in human sight."

"Heh!" Spike snorted coldly, "Anyway, I don't understand what good killing us would do them. Would it anger others?"

"Who knows?" Ling Ge spread his hands. He didn't intend to tell the three Eternals that Ajax was dead. Let them find out for themselves!

"I came to see you because of the earthquake. I haven't heard of that mutant race." Ikaris said.

"Something happened on Earth. This can't be a coincidence." Serhi mused.

"We have to find the rest of the tribe."

“Some people haven’t been seen in hundreds of years.”

“It shouldn’t have changed much.” Ikaris hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Sersi and said, “I’m sorry I hurt you, Sersi.

But we need unity, as long as I make sure you are safe, I will leave you alone."

"Let's go find Ajak first. She knows what to do." After saying this, Serhi turned and left the room.

"Did you hear that, Spike?

Family reunion.”

Spike nodded, "It's about time."

...

South Dakota.

A huge dark cloud was circling in the sky, with cold wind howling and thunder roaring.

Two cars drove along a road across the plains to Ajak's home.

Several people entered the house and called out briefly, but Ajak did not come out.

The house was not very big and no one was found in several rooms. So Serxi opened the back door, only to find a figure lying in the yard. She had a bad feeling.

"Ajax!" Serhi ran over immediately, and the others followed closely behind.

Seeing Ajax's body turned blue-gray, Sersi's eyes couldn't help but become moist. Spike also knelt on the ground in pain, sobbing continuously.

Ikaris looked around and paused for a few seconds on the damaged fences. "It was done by the mutants."

Click!

Ling Ge took a few photos of Ajak's body and nodded in agreement, "It seems to be the case now.

The mutant drained the energy from Ajax's body, and he evolved from a slightly intelligent beast into an intelligent life form that could think and talk, and gained the ability to heal itself.

This is why it is clinging to you, the Eternals.

It is obvious that devouring the last Eternal allowed it to escape the category of ferocious beasts. If it devours another one, it will definitely evolve again and possess the same new superpowers.

Therefore, compared to humans, you are the real treat, the real feast..."

Ikaris looked at Spike who was crying and Sersi who was clenching her fists, and interrupted Ling Ge directly, "Stop talking, give them some quiet space!"

"Okay!" Ling Ge nodded, said "My condolences", and turned back to the room.

After a while, Ikaris and Spike also came in.

Spike raised her right hand, and a simple illusion appeared at the dining table: Ajak was holding Spike's hands and singing softly like a mother coaxing her child.

Spike put away the illusion and tears flowed unconsciously, "That was the last time I saw her. Ajax asked me to see Serhi, so I went to London.

It turns out that we were both lonely and needed each other, and I think Ajax has been taking care of us... in her own way."

"Well, it can be seen that she treats you as her daughter." Ling Ge handed over a box of tissues. While expressing sympathy, he was also secretly criticizing: A daughter who is over 7,000 years old, this mother-daughter relationship is incredible, incredible.

"Thank you!" Spike wiped the tears from her face, "You have this too?"

Ling Ge spread his hands and said, "I didn't have any before, but I prepared a little more because I was worried about a naughty kid and his friends a while ago. I didn't expect that I could use it again."

Spike: ...

"This is the first time in 7,000 years that we have had a death."

“If we’re not careful, there will be a second one soon.” Ling Ge said directly, and then met Spike and Ikaris’ murderous gazes, “I mean, the mutant has only shown the ability to heal itself, which means it hasn’t had time to devour the second Eternal.

Or maybe you two were its second target, but it failed.

It can be inferred that Ajax has not been dead for a long time, perhaps just in the past few days."

"So...what do you want to say?" Ikaris asked.

"Nothing, just a simple reminder.

It seems that except for you few, the other Eternals don’t know anything and are scattered all over the world!

Tsk tsk tsk! If that mutant could find you two, then it should be able to find the others too!

I would like to ask, besides Ikaris, who else among the Eternals can fight against the mutants in a one-on-one duel?"

"Senna and Gilgamesh should be able to do it. Jinhoo, Phaistos, Zhuke and Makari should all be able to protect themselves." Spike said.

"Ha! That's against ordinary mutants. Only Saint Na and Gilgamesh are capable of fighting against a mutant with self-healing ability, and they may not win.

Makari can protect itself with its super high speed, but the rest of the people are just a piece of cake for it.

Besides, who can guarantee that this is the only mutant that has revived?

If it brings a dozen or twenty mutants to deal with an Eternal, who can escape?

In other words, the rest of your people are in danger!"

Spike and Ikaris looked at each other and felt terrified.

"It seems we have to gather the remaining tribesmen as soon as possible." Ikaris said in a deep voice, "There is no time to lose!"

Spike also nodded. She originally thought that the situation could be controlled, but after listening to Ling Ge's analysis, she realized that the situation was more serious than she thought.

That mutant was difficult to deal with just by devouring Ajak's energy. If it devoured any other Eternal, I'm afraid Ikaris might not be its match.

Zizi!

At this moment, the lights in the room were suddenly affected by something and went out instantly.

"What's going on?" Spike asked, confused.

"Serxi!" Ikaris was stunned for a moment, then rushed to the backyard.

The other two also hurriedly followed. Spike was worried that her people would be hurt again, but Lingge was worried because he promised Dane to protect her.

Several people rushed out of the room, only to see a golden ball slowly rising from Ajax's chest and rushing into Serxi's body. A stream of golden light covered the surroundings, and Serxi fell into confusion.

"Shit!" Ling Ge felt confused. If he had known that the key to the book was inside Ajax, he would have suggested cremating him on the spot.

Now the ball is in Serhi's body. It would be fine if it could be taken out, but it would be troublesome if it can't be taken out.

"Cercy, Cercy, are you okay?" Spike shook Cercy's arm and brought her back from her trance.

"What's wrong, Circe?" Ikaris asked.

Serhi lowered her head, "The ball that Ajak used to talk to Alisem floated out of her body and into me."

Ikaris looked surprised. "You talked to Alisem?"

"Yes, he said...it's about time."

"Excuse me, who is Alisem?" Ling Ge asked in confusion.

"He's the one who sent us to Earth to eliminate mutants." Spike said, then looked at Sersi, "Can you try to talk to him again?"

“I don’t know what to do?”

"But she chose you to succeed her, and she gave you the ball."

"Actually, that's not important." Ling Ge suddenly said, and then took out the locked book so that Serxi could clearly see the ball-shaped keyhole. "What's important is whether you can take the ball out."

Serhi: ....

871. Movie star? Golden Hook as Ikaris

It took Serxi a while to react, and then she rolled her eyes at Ling Ge in annoyance, "Do you think I can get it?"

Ling Ge looked sincere as he pushed the locked book forward a few centimeters. "I think you can do it, so hurry up. Not being able to open this book is a torment for me with my obsessive-compulsive disorder."

"Um... I'm sorry, I really can't get the ball out, at least not now. Otherwise, I wouldn't be unable to even talk to Alisem."

"Beautiful!" Ling Ge's face darkened and he put away the book in his hand.

"Wait, Serhi, are you sure you talked to Alisom?"

"What else could it be?" Spike couldn't help but ask.

Ikaris was silent for a moment, then said, "Eternal Devil Syndrome!"

After the words fell, Sersi and Spike turned their heads to look at Ikaris. Both of them looked unhappy, as if they remembered something terrible.

"Excuse me, what is Eternal Demon Disease? Is it a disease?"

"Almost. It's similar to the mental illness among you humans, but the Eternals may be even crazier when they have an attack, and even..." Ikaris paused here, "They may even not recognize their relatives."

"Wow!" Ling Ge exclaimed, "Is there any way to treat it? Mental illness can still be cured! You are the Eternals, you won't be troubled by the Eternal Devil Syndrome!"

"There is no cure," Spike said, "except... erasing all memories. Nothing left."

"Spike!" Serhi glared at her. "This is just Ikaris's guess. It may not be the Eternal Devil Disease. I did talk to Alisem just now, although the time was a little short."

"I hope I'm overthinking it!" said Ikaris.

"It's okay!" Spike patted Sersi's shoulder. "Even if you really don't recognize your relatives, there are still many people who can suppress you."

Secy: ...

"Is this what you call comforting me?"

"Ahem! Let's not waste time on these meaningless things." Ling Ge said speechlessly, "Don't forget, the mutants are still alive?

The longer you delay, the more dangerous you will be.”

"Indeed! We have to speed up the process of gathering our tribesmen." Ikaris said seriously.

"Who do we look for next?" Spike asked.

"Golden Gou! He should be the best one among us.

But his place is quite far away, we have to book some tickets first, and it may take some time to wait for the flight. "
