Synopsis

[The rating just opened, so it’ll gradually climb back up. This is absolutely worth reading: a tight, fast-paced story!] Tags: [Nonhuman Protagonist] + [Urban Superpowers] + [Biological Evolution] + [Genetic Absorption] + [Symbiosis/Parasitism] + [Cool, Aloof Heroine] A forbidden biological experiment. A strange contamination from deep space? Lin Ye woke in a viscous, slippery mass, without body heat, a heartbeat, or even a physical form. He had become a writhing clump of mycelium, imprisoned in a death lab beneath an abandoned city. This was a hunting ground for genetic monsters and a forbidden zone for an out-of-control AI. Every inch of air reeked of despair. His only means of survival was his [Contamination] ability, which let him devour anything, analyze its genes, and evolve without limit. Without eyes or ears, unable to tell which way to go, he could only expand on instinct, weaving a sensory web of mycelium through dark, damp pipes as he yearned for sunlight and freedom. Then, one day, a stunning researcher with a cool, aloof air collapsed before him on the cold floor, gravely wounded and on the brink of death. Her arrival was like a ray of light tearing through the darkness. Should he save her? Devour her? Or... become symbiotic with her? When Lin Ye’s mycelium cautiously wound around her wounds, a fragile and dangerous symbiotic bond was formed. Her knowledge became his eyes, and his strength became her shield. But what followed was not just the hope of escaping alive. There was also a relentless hunt by the forces behind the laboratory, and a huge secret she was hiding... As the mycelium quietly crept out of the sewers and wound around the city’s steel and concrete, a nonhuman presence lurking in the shadows of neon lights began to rise. “Wait, does she seem... more and more dependent on me?”

The writing is pretty good, especially the logical thinking is quite novel, and there are a lot of professional and academic words. It feels like watching a science fiction movie, so cheers for the author! I guess it may be written as an apocalyptic text later on, but I don't know if it is. Ark's plan is to destroy mankind and create a new civilization and higher-dimensional life forms. In order to prevent the earth from being suitable for pure carbon-based organisms to survive after the destruction of mankind, semi-carbon-based organisms that are suitable for survival in extreme conditions are studied in advance. (The above thoughts are purely personal)

It's been a long time since I've encountered this kind of evolution, and there's a female protagonist, and she's still a dark evolution! It perfectly fits what I want to see [laughs crookedly]👍

How to say it? The experience just feels a bit foggy? It's just that it's mainly too messy. But the creativity of the brain is very good. 🤔🤔

Well, the woman was either in a coma or on the way to coma, which made me laugh. The main character wanted to be a worker again, which was really interesting.

I thought the protagonist was a red monster who kept eating and eating and then evolving. As a result, the protagonist stood up, gave me a slap in the face, and shouted: System, start!

Two chapters and a life and death crisis Isn't the protagonist just a clone? ? ?

It looks okay, but I feel like you need to add some plot to describe the structure and power of this world and the region they are located in. If possible, based on the protagonist's current "Chaos Order" strength, if he escapes the beacon lock later, add two or three active attacks by the protagonist to destroy the Ark or some forces' plans or actions, or destroy some of their experimental sites. Also, if possible later, it is best to have a base or energy supply field of your own. Ok, that's all, come on and code [Like][ Eat Melon][ Eat Melon][ Eat Melon]
