Evolve into a Dragon after Surviving a Nuclear Blast - Chapter 18
That inexplicable voice sounded in Claire’s mind again, but it made Claire and Professor Carl’s faces change drastically.
As they turned pale, their faces also showed disbelief.
“How… How is this possible? Animals can talk?!!”
“Oh God, are you kidding me?!!”
…
In the consecutive shocking exclamations, even the knowledgeable Professor Carl was frightened.
He looked like he was looking at a miracle..
Gray had probably expected this.
His ferocious face was still calm.
Ignoring their shocked expressions, Gray only wanted to get some information from them.
So…
The spiritual frequency did not change, and Gray continued to organize his words.
“Can you tell me what is happening outside?”
“Also, which country are you from?”
“Oh yes, don’t lie to me. That white-haired old man can’t hear my voice now… When I ask him later, if I find out that you two have different stories, what will happen… you should know.”
…
The faint voice continued to reverberate in Claire’s mind, causing her to be completely stunned.
The giant lizard actually spoke? And it could even threaten people?
Moreover, it said it so flawlessly?
Originally, Gray had planned to hide some things.
But thinking about it carefully, Gray found that there was actually no need to hide too much.
If it was due to the evolution of a mutated beast, then most high-level mutated beasts should also have this ability. It was only a matter of time.
After all, mutated beasts didn’t just evolve and mutate physically. Without powerful spiritual power, it would be very difficult to control that extraordinary body.
Therefore, it was only a matter of time before mutated beasts and humans started to communicate.
Of course, the premise of this behavior was that a mutated beast would take the initiative to learn about humans.
Only then would they be able to communicate normally with each other through language.
…
“Stay here properly. Don’t let me find out what you’re up to. If I find out… the consequences will be at your own risk.”
After saying that, Gray turned his gaze to the professor who was thinking about something in the distance. He was stunned on the spot and didn’t move at all.
Then, “Roar!”
The stinky big mouth opened, and a mouthful of dark green liquid the size of a basketball gushed out. Then, under Professor Carl’s astonished gaze, the huge rock in the distance… its surface was actually corroding at a speed visible to the naked eye, until it left a very huge pit.
Was this lizard threatening him?
This method could be considered a naked threat. In the midst of his increasing shock, Professor Carl was so frightened that his hands and feet turned cold.
Even his entire body was frightened by this tyrannical method until cold sweat flowed down his back.
At this time, Gray didn’t pay attention to this scrawny old man. Instead, he turned around and led the girl named Claire to a corner not far away.
Interrogation, of course, was better to be done separately. This girl, in front of the white-haired old man, was too timid to say anything.
…
Time ticked by slowly. In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed.
At this moment, in a corner of the island, the blonde Clare was already drenched in sweat. Her eyes were blurred, and her teeth were tightly biting her cherry lips.
Those who did not know the situation would think that he had a big fight with her.
However, Claire was willing to have a big fight with Professor Carl outside, and not to face Gray, who terrified her.
After all, that cold and rough tail would occasionally brush past the hidden parts of her delicate body, and even her delicate cheeks. The feeling was not something that ordinary people could accept.
Under such a threat, Claire, who knew how to protect herself, naturally told everything she knew to Gray.
“Claire, that’s a pretty good name…”
With a chuckle, the corner of Gray’s mouth curled up slightly, forming an inexplicable arc.
This girl’s name was Claire, and she came from the world’s top university — Harvard University.
This time, she had followed Professor Carl here to collect data on nuclear radiation.
From her words, Gray had a rough understanding of the current situation in this world.
“This place is similar to the Blue Planet in my previous life. In terms of timeline, it should be around the end of the 21st century…
“However, the strange thing is that human technology at this time has yet to have a revolutionary breakthrough. It has even maintained the appearance of the 21st century, and even… The outer space of the universe had never been touched.
“And just a few months ago… a large-scale mutation occurred across the world. The creatures in various places underwent a series of mutations. Not only did their strength greatly increase, they were also extremely aggressive.
“And not only that, in this place of mutation, there were dozens of powerful mutated beasts that suddenly rose up and dominated a region. Although later on, due to some unknown reasons, they exploded and died, but their powerful and majestic strength left an indelible impression on the higher-ups of humanity. It was to the extent that after humanity dealt with them, they began to do their best to suppress the mutations in various places.
“And the mutated Komodo Island that I’m on is a nuclear weapons testing ground for humans. When the nuclear weapons descended, even the island and most of the living things were wiped out.
“I’m afraid that the higher-ups of the humans would never have thought that the radiation produced by the nuclear weapons would combine with this mysterious power, speeding up the mutation rate of the animals. It even evolved into a mutated creature with high intelligence like me.”
…
As he continued to analyze, Gray was also sorting out his thoughts.
Just as he had initially thought, this world was still the Blue Planet.
It was just that the present was different from the past, and it had already ushered into a new era.
“Another cycle of life changing… Another great evolution of life…”
As he muttered softly, Gray’s face revealed a thoughtful expression.
This was definitely not a simple mutation. If it was a mutation, there should be good and bad.
But now… What entered Gray’s eyes was that most of the wild beasts were becoming stronger and stronger… This was evolution.
True Evolution. It was the replacement of life, and it was also another transformation.
Therefore… His eyes narrowed slightly, and Gray was looking forward to it even more.
If that was really the case… Then as long as he properly seized the opportunity, perhaps this world really did have a place for him.
