At night, in front of the bay of Coney Island.
Brian and Darwin sat on the ground, summarising the previous test results while eating the sea fish caught by Darwin.
With the long-term ability test, Darwin became more trusting of Brian.
Maybe it was an illusion; he always felt that his survival of the fittest ability became stronger than before in the ability test again and again.
Although this feeling was fragile, it also made Darwin feel the growth of ability.
This was enough to make him grateful to Brian, the "Professor of Genetics".
"Professor, I feel great now. My body has automatically adapted to the darkness, allowing me to gain night vision ability."
Darwin was a little reluctant to share the changes in his ability with Brian. Just now, he gained night vision ability in the dark.
This was something Darwin had never had before.
Before meeting "Sierra", he had never gained night vision ability in the dark.
But now, he has such an ability.
There is no doubt that all this is the credit of this young professor.
"Darwin, you said you have gained the night vision ability now?"
Brian's eyes turned cold and dangerous when he looked at Darwin.
It was as if a hunter was staring at his prey.
"Yes, professor."
Darwin, who was excited, did not notice Brian's unusual expression.
He was immersed in the night vision ability brought by adapting to the dark environment.
His eyes were emitting a faint light, as if they could dispel the darkness, and everything he saw was as bright as day.
Darwin looked at the bay in front of him. The night vision ability not only allowed him to see things in the dark.
At the same time, it strengthened his visual nerves, and he could keenly capture the changes in the surrounding light.
This allowed him to even see the fish swimming in the water.
Suddenly, Darwin glanced at Brian from the corner of his eye.
He was surprised to find that Brian was pointing a gun at him at this moment.
"Huh? Professor?"
Darwin turned his head to look at Brian in confusion, wondering why Brian was pointing a gun at him.
"Relax, Darwin, this is just a simple little test."
Brian comforted Darwin with a smile on his face.
Darwin's Ability is too buggy.
Brian is worried that if Darwin can't be killed, he still has room for manoeuvre.
After saying that, Brian pulled the trigger directly.
Bang, bang, bang.
A dull gunshot sounded, and just in case, Brian emptied the magazine directly.
"Uh, this...what's going on? Why doesn't my ability work?"
Darwin looked down at his chest in surprise.
Currently, streams of blood constantly flowed out of his chest.
Darwin didn't understand why his ability of survival of the fittest was not activated.
Bang.
In Darwin's confused eyes, his body fell straight to the ground.
Although his heart and lungs were shattered by bullets, Darwin did not die immediately.
His variant Ability, survival of the fittest, was passively activated and began to adapt to the injuries on his body.
And began to try to strengthen the self-healing of cells to repair the damage to the body.
Darwin's broken heart began to heal slowly.
At the same time, Darwin's body began to adapt and evolve rapidly, forming a new oxygen-absorbing organ in his body.
"It's worthy of the ability of survival of the fittest. He's not dead yet."
Brian walked up to Darwin and watched Darwin's body constantly adapt to his injuries and couldn't help but marvel.
Then Brian raised his gun again and shot Darwin's new organ.
"Sera... Sera, why?"
It was not until this moment that Darwin realised that Brian wanted to kill him on purpose.
"Poor Nig, there has never been unprovoked kindness or selfless help in this world. Everything has been marked in secret."
Brian's cold answer made Darwin extremely angry.
But he didn't even have the strength to speak at that moment.
He could only hope that the ability of survival of the fittest would allow him to adapt to the current predicament.
However, it was obvious that Darwin's wish was doomed to fail.
Brian took out the dagger that he had prepared long ago from his pocket.
Then, in Darwin's horrified eyes, he placed the dagger on Darwin's forehead.
"Fuck, Sera... You, what are you going to do...?"
Darwin felt the cold touch of the dagger, and goosebumps appeared all over his body.
At this moment, Darwin felt like a lamb to be slaughtered.
"Darwin, take a deep breath; it's normal to feel a little pain."
Brian glanced at Darwin, and then without wasting time, the dagger pierced Darwin's forehead.
Amid Darwin's screams, Brian opened his brain.
Currently, Darwin's mind was open.
The brain was completely exposed in front of Brian.
As Darwin's mind was open, the mechanical operation sound in Brian's mind sounded again.
At the same time, there were some sounds similar to the operation of mechanical parts.
"Finally waited for this moment; let me see what the operating rules of your ability are."
Brian's face showed excitement.
He couldn't wait to squat down and began to carefully observe Darwin's brain circuits.
At this moment, Darwin's brain, in Brian's eyes, was quickly divided into independent functional component areas.
These functions correspond to various functions of the human body.
There are memory centres, nerve centres, language centres, and so on.
A minute later, Brian found the ability centre in Darwin's brain.
"So, Darwin's Ability runs like this."
The variant ability that sees through the laws of operation of everything makes Brian instantly understand all the secrets of the variant ability in Darwin's brain.
'Tick, tick.'
As Brian understood Darwin's variant ability, his brain began to operate like a complex machine.
His brain and body began to adjust themselves.
It was like adding DLC to his body.
In just a moment, Brian's body already had Darwin's variant ability.
Brian stood up and carefully felt the changes in his body.
Currently, Brian's eyes were glowing, and his pupils kept shrinking and adjusting. The originally dark environment was as bright as day in Brian's eyes.
Just after Brian obtained the ability of survival of the fittest, his body had adapted to the night vision ability in an instant.
Not only that, Brian came to the edge of the bay and then jumped down.
The moment he touched the seawater, Brian's neck on both sides automatically adapted to fish gills.
At the same time, his limbs also grew fins like swordfish, and golden fish scales grew on his skin.
At this moment, Brian was like a graceful fisherman.
Whoosh.
Brian slightly exerted force on his arms in the water, and the whole person rushed through the water like an arrow from a string.
The speed of movement in the water is faster than that of a swordfish.
This is the horror of the Sera template.
The ability to see through the laws of operation of all things can automatically optimise and upgrade the acquired variant abilities.
One-click full level, like using an arm.
That is why, after Brian obtained the survival of the fittest ability, his variant ability level has been automatically upgraded to level 5.
Yes.
After plundering Darwin's variant ability, Brian jumped from an ordinary mutant without ability to a powerful level 5 mutant.
In the water, Brian clenched his fists slightly.
He could feel that his body was still undergoing adaptive evolution.
It's not survival of the fittest, but adaptive evolution.
His body can adapt to various extreme environments and continue to evolve.
This adaptive evolution will not stop until he evolves into the most perfect creature in the current environment.
"I can feel that nothing can kill me except time."
Brian jumped out of the water, as agile as a carp.
When Brian landed on the shore, all the adaptive evolution organs on his body disappeared rapidly.
"It's a pity that this adaptive evolution will disappear if it is out of the extreme environment."
After taking a look at his body, Brian shook his head helplessly.
He turned his head to look at Darwin on the shore. Currently, Darwin was dying, but he was still not completely dead.
It must be said that the survival of the fittest gave Darwin a strong vitality.
"I will carry forward your ability; you can rest in peace."
Brian looked down at Darwin, then raised his hand and shot Darwin in the exposed brain.
The bullet hit Darwin's brain's ability centre accurately, directly destroying Darwin's mutant ability.
Darwin's eyes widened, and he couldn't die any more.
