Evolution game, nothing more than that!

"Did you do this?"

He looked at Yi Shen.

"Yes, I did it."

Yi Shen nodded.

"…What on earth did you do?"

The bearded man's face was full of surprise.

In fact, it's not just him, the others are the same.

In response, Yi Shen just shrugged and said:

"Just like you said, it just gave him an epileptic seizure."

Yes, epilepsy.

However, this was not because the captain himself suffered from epilepsy, but was artificially created by Yi Shen.

Remember those labeled cells he sent out?

The Yi Shen cells in the captain's body have never died.

Although the body infused with the power of the evil god has much stronger cell strength and even more aggressive immune system than that of an ordinary person, these cells still survive tenaciously with the help of the power of the cellular force field.

From the moment the captain appeared, Yi Shen began to manipulate these cells to move towards the opponent's brain, and finally successfully penetrated the blood-brain barrier and entered the opponent's brain tissue.

Then, under Yi Shen's manipulation, these cells began to compete with the captain's cells for nutrients, dividing and proliferating, and soon grew a large enough cluster of neurons in his brain.

Well, to put it simply, Yi Shen created a brain tumor in the captain's brain!

The most common symptom for patients with brain tumors is epilepsy!

The essence of epilepsy is the abnormal discharge of oppressed neuronal cells. As Yi Shen's cell clusters grew larger and larger, the pressure on the surrounding brain tissue became greater and greater. In addition, some of these cells were differentiated into neurons. The disordered discharge naturally caused abnormal discharge of the captain's brain cells, which manifested externally as an epileptic seizure.

It can be said that for any creature that still needs a brain to think, Yi Shen’s move is an impossible-to-defend-against-death blow!

Of course, this trick is not without its drawbacks. The most critical point is that it takes a long time to take effect. It takes several minutes from activation to effectiveness.

Moreover, although Yi Shen can control his cells regardless of distance perception, if he wants to accurately locate inside the human body, he still has to get close to a certain distance and cannot be blocked by space.

During the battle with the captain, Yi Shen took advantage of the brief opportunities when the captain walked out of the spiritual world and attacked everyone, and moved his cells into the other's brain little by little.

Fortunately, after entering the brain, there is no need for any detailed manipulation. Just give a "continued proliferation" command, and these cells will complete their tasks on their own without Yi Shen having to worry about it.

Therefore, even though the captain was in the spiritual world just now, he was unable to prevent the formation of this foreign tumor in his brain, and eventually suffered an epileptic seizure and fell back into the real world.

Yi Shen did not tell everyone about all of the above. Although the bearded man and others did not know the inside story, they had guessed that it might be related to the "positioning mark" he left on everyone.

However, after fighting together for so long, everyone had developed some trust in each other, so no one showed excessive fear towards Yi Shen.

"Now, it's time to get rid of this guy once and for all!"

The bearded man looked at the captain lying on the ground, twitching unconsciously, and turned to look at Yi Shen:

"Your attack power is the strongest among all of us. I'll leave this final blow to you!"

Yi Shen nodded, taking the responsibility.

The dazzling thunder gathered in his hands, and the purple lightning continued to condense, and finally even formed a plasma like a ball of lightning.

After feeling that the accumulated energy was enough to completely carbonize the captain, Yi Shen pushed with both hands, and the ball of lightning condensed in his palms flew out and landed on him.

However, at this moment, a red light appeared in the bone altar again and fell on the captain.

Although this light was only a thin layer, it possessed incredible power. No matter how the ball lightning destroyed it, it could not hurt the captain's body at all.

"This is……!"

Everyone's expression changed and they quickly took a few steps back.

They saw that under the red light, the captain's body stood up from the ground in a very strange posture like a puppet.

Then, accompanied by a creepy crackling sound, the body began to change drastically.

The overgrown bone spurs began to break and fall off, and the muscles that were over-swollen and twisted began to shrive and even melt.

At the same time, the skeleton of its entire body began to grow rapidly, and soon grew to a height of more than three meters.

Such drastic changes in bones and muscles naturally led to tearing and damage to the skin, but what flowed out of the torn cracks was not blood, but a black liquid like mud. After coming into contact with the air, it quickly solidified into ice and mixed with the flesh, making the body look as if it was made of rotten meat, ice, snow and mud.

In addition, what is particularly eye-catching is the change in the captain's head.

His cheeks began to stretch, turning into a long face similar to that of a deer or a horse, and large, forked antlers like those of an elk grew on his head. In the process, the flesh on his face fell off, leaving only the white bones underneath. Even his eyeballs were gone from his eye sockets, leaving only two balls of flame like will-o'-the-wisp, burning and flickering continuously.

"...Wendigo?"

Yi Shen recognized the captain's mutated form.

Wendigo is a monster born from cannibalism in Indian legends.

Its appearance varies among different tribes, but its best-known features include its animal-like head, exposed skull, and huge antlers.

And now, under the control of the evil god, a new Wendigo was born!

Chapter 65: Sacrifice and Love are the Sources of Strength

"Fuck! How come there's still a second stage transformation? That's too shameless!"

Seeing the changes in the captain, the bearded man couldn't help but complain.

"This is the evil god taking action personally, everyone be careful!"

Yi Shen reminded loudly.

And just as he finished speaking, the captain's transformation was finally completed.

Bang!

The three-meter-tall giant body fell heavily to the ground, crushing the already cracked ice even further.

He raised the white skull with no visible flesh, and dark red flames flickered in his swollen eye sockets, as if observing everyone.

"Roar--!!!"

With a loud roar, the Wendigo swung its hand and attacked.

In an instant, the front half of his arm disappeared into the void, and then at the same time, the girl who was holding the cowboy suddenly made a "pop" sound, her neck was torn apart, and her head flew out!

It was the Wendigo's arm that pierced through space and cut directly from behind the girl. Its sharp claws ignored the defense of her body armor and directly broke her entire neck!

This attack came so fast and so suddenly that even Yi Shen didn't have time to react.

Pfft!

The head fell to the ground, and large amounts of blood spurted out from the girl's neck.

"Yumiko!"

The cowboy next to her watched this scene happen. He subconsciously hugged the girl's body, then looked at the head rolling on the ground, and was completely stunned.

But he was stunned, but others were not.

Yi Shen was the first to react. Violent thunder shot out from his hands in an instant, hitting the Wendigo and preventing it from attacking again.

The scorching thunder bombarded the monster's body, destroying its tissues inch by inch. The Wendigo roared angrily, and forcibly launched the [Spiritual Walking] under the lightning, disappearing on the spot.

The next moment, it appeared behind Yi Shen, and swung its huge claws down, trying to tear the latter apart.

However, Yi Shen was prepared for this. A spherical lightning shield suddenly exploded with his body as the center.

This is both a shield and an attack.

Although the evil god's curse carried on the Wendigo's claws instantly penetrated the shield, the high temperature, electric shock, and impact force generated by the explosion of the thunder shield could not be erased.

Before its claws could touch Yi Shen's body, the Wendigo's entire body was blown away by the rapidly expanding thunder.

The huge body, more than three meters tall, rolled on the ground and immediately adjusted its posture. The red light in the Wendigo's eyes flickered slightly, and the familiar spatial fluctuations appeared again.

However, at this moment, a holy light fell on it, forcing it to turn back the [Spirit World Walk] that was about to be activated.

Looking at the source of the holy light, he saw that Assassin was now covered in the holy light, and even his eyes were filled with pure white light. It was obvious that his compatibility with the holy light was further improved. He even used an ability he had never had before and sealed the Wendigo's [Spiritual Walking] skill!

"Well done!"

Yi Shen praised.

To be honest, he was a little confused when he saw the captain get up and turn into a Wendigo again.

Although the "artificial tumor technique" is useful, it can only be used on organisms with brain tissue.

But this Wendigo in front of me... look at its skull without any skin or flesh. There is no brain tissue inside, it's just an empty shell!

In fact, he could no longer sense his own cells in the other person's body. It was obvious that he had been killed in the transformation and mutation process just now.

Seeing that Assassin had controlled the Wendigo, Yi Shen's heart was lifted. He immediately raised his hand to prepare for a more powerful attack to kill the opponent completely!

However, at this moment——

"Go to hell!"

With a roar, a figure covered in armor and with wings on its back flew past Yi Shen and rushed towards the Wendigo at lightning speed.

Is this a cowboy?

Let's go back in time for a moment.

While Yi Shen and others were fighting fiercely with the Wendigo, the cowboy sat on the ground, holding the headless female corpse, his heart filled with confusion.

How could this happen? How did things suddenly turn out like this?

Didn't she make a promise to herself that she would accompany him in this evolution game until the end?

Why, this is only her first official mission, and she...

Sadness, confusion, and then unparalleled anger.

A raging rage ignited in the cowboy's heart. He put down the lifeless body of the girl, whose magical armor was slowly dissipating. He picked up the head on the ground next to him and put it back on his neck, making her look whole again.

Then he stood up, and a magical flame that seemed to be tangible ignited on his body.

In the flames, a set of armor that was more gorgeous and more majestic than the silver armor just now appeared on his body.

And it's not just armor. There's also a wing-like shield on his left arm, and in his right hand, there's a heavy and gorgeous gun blade with a magazine and shooting holes on it.

Feeling the changes in himself, the cowboy knew that it was the artificial demon blood in his body that finally stabilized from its unstable and incomplete state, and even advanced from a "Silver Knight" to a "Gold Knight".

If he was still in the Demon Sword Cult, he would probably be ecstatic with such a leap in strength and celebrate with Yumiko all day long.

But at this moment, he did not feel any joy in his heart, but instead felt more pain.

If this power can only be obtained at the cost of his friends and lover, he would rather not have it!

And after the grief, there comes an even more surging anger.

As the flames of rage burned, the demonic power in his body was also stimulated, becoming more and more active, which further enhanced his strength.

In just a short moment, he felt that he was ten times stronger than before.

"Die!!!"

He roared, raised his spear and rushed towards the Wendigo. As he charged, the shield on his left arm turned into wings behind him, pushing his body to move at high speed.

Yi Shen's face changed when he saw this, and he quickly shouted:

"Do not impulse!"

However, before his words could reach the other party's ears, the cowboy, whose strength had greatly increased, turned into a shadow and rushed in front of Wendigo almost in an instant.

puff!

Facing the attack from the Golden Knight, Wendigo did not dodge or resist, allowing the gun blade to cut into his body.

Large pieces of flesh, blood, bones mixed with black ice, snow and soil splashed out from the wound. It seemed that it had been severely injured!

However, it was seen immediately afterwards that Wendigo's body, which was almost cut in half, seemed to be unaffected by the injury at all. He raised his hand and slashed his claws at the golden knight like an iron whip.

The latter instinctively folded the wings behind him into a shield, trying to block the attack.

However, the Wendigo's attack was far beyond the cowboy's imagination. With one blow, his shield shattered instantly, and he was thrown far away by the impact force.

However, the cowboy at this moment was no longer the same person as before. Even though he was thrown into the air, he still turned the blade of the gun, pointed the muzzle at the enemy, and pulled the trigger repeatedly. Bullets condensed by magic power shot out one after another and hit the Wendigo.

These warheads, which are made purely of magic power, are even more destructive than enchanted bullets. Each one can blast a big hole in the Wendigo, splashing countless blood, flesh, ice and snow.
