Chapter 16 The Power of Apoptosis
  Although he didn't know how dangerous this hidden mission was, the moment he saw the mission reward, Chen Li had no reason not to accept it.

He didn't know what the power of apoptosis (god seed) was.

But considering what Su Ziying said before about Red Moon's ability to accelerate the passage of life, this power of apoptosis is definitely similar to Red Moon's power.

In fact, it is very likely to have a direct connection with the red moon.

Even if he had never understood supernatural powers before, he knew that this reward was definitely not that weak.

Risks and opportunities coexist. With Chen Li's character, it is impossible not to give it a try.

"You don't need to ask me for help. I will go find out the details of Hongyue and Mangrove starting tomorrow."

Chen Li's eyes were bright and he said: "As companions, helping each other is the most basic thing. If you are in need, I will naturally step forward."

These words made Su Ziying stunned for a moment.

She first glanced at Chen Li suspiciously. It was a bit strange for Chen Li to be so enthusiastic.

But after careful observation, I found that he didn't seem to be cheating, and his attitude was very serious, but his heart changed towards Chen Li.

She was a little touched. For Chen Li, who didn't want to leave here, exploring the red moon and mangroves would only increase his risk, but he was willing to pay for it.

Just because they are companions now.

The word companion suddenly held more weight in Su Ziying's heart.

"it is good."

She nodded.

Su Ziying thanked her from the bottom of her heart:
  "Thank you."

"Which one of us is following the other?" Chen Li waved his hand and said, "We have been together for so many days, and you still don't understand me."

"Let's come here today. We just finished moving and we still have things to do tomorrow morning."

"Go to bed early, I'm going to bed first."

After saying that, Chen Li went back to his room to rest.

In fact, he couldn't wait and sat on the bed ready to ask the system.

He wanted to know what the power of apoptosis was, and what did the divine seed in brackets represent?
  ……

Su Ziying sat on the sofa and quietly watched Chen Li return to the room.

She wasn't sleepy yet and planned to go back to sleep later.

Her thoughts wandered, and she lay half-ly on the sofa, looking up at the chandelier that emitted soft light. Her slender white neck drew a perfect arc like a swan.

Su Ziying could tell that Chen Li really regarded her as a simple companion.

The relationship between the two is just like that of friends, without any other special emotions mixed in.

She realized this early on.

However, a few days ago, she didn't care about this. Chen Li was free to decide what attitude he had towards her, as long as it did not harm her interests.

But now, she felt an inexplicable dissatisfaction in her heart.

Why?
  There were only two of them here. A man and a woman had been together for so long, but he didn't have any feelings for her at all?
  Su Ziying is extremely confident in her charm.

Because no matter how confident she is, her appearance and talents are enough to support this confidence and not turn into pride.

She was a little upset.

Even though they have seen everything about my body, they can still treat me with a normal heart...

Chen Li... was really the most special boy she had ever met.

"Although I don't have any other feelings for him, that's because I am a new human being... My power is the highest power, and my appearance is praised by the world. Does he have anything to compare with... "

"Okay, he is quite good-looking, but even if his appearance is the same, nothing else can make up for the gap..."

In short, from Su Ziyi's current point of view, it is normal that she does not have special feelings for Chen Li between men and women.

If Chen Li doesn't like her at all, that's abnormal!

She is upset!
  She decided to eat more tomorrow and let him cook more dishes to tire him out!
  ...    Chen Li, who was about to ask the system some questions, didn't know that Su Ziying was thinking about him now.

He would be amused if he knew.

After all, from Chen Li's perspective, she is just a copy of Su Ziying, an NPC in this dream, a virtual character who will disappear after the dream ends.

It is impossible for Chen Li to fall in love with a virtual person created by the system, otherwise it would be too funny and absurd.

If the system tells him that Su Ziying here is Su Ziyi in the real world and they are the same person, then there is still a possibility that Chen Li will fall in love with her.

Because, after spending these days together, Chen Li also discovered that Su Ziying's character was not that bad, at least it was still within the acceptable range for him.

Although Su Ziying still looked down on the old humans, she did not look down on him, Chen Li.

In addition, the current environment is that the two of them are living together in the end of the world and supporting each other. The atmosphere alone has provided a good boost to the relationship between the two.

Under these conditions, if Su Ziying were a real person, Chen Li really couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't fall in love with her.

However, reality does not have so many ifs.

"System, please introduce the power of apoptosis, and what does the divine seed behind it mean?"

"Also, what does it have to do with the red moon?"

Chen Li leaned on the back of the bed and asked in his mind.

[The power of apoptosis: Accelerates the apoptosis process of all living things in the world. 】

[The so-called divine seed refers to the divine seed. Those who obtain the divine seed have the qualifications to become gods. 】

[Involving hidden tasks, the host needs to explore by himself. 】

The first two answers given by the system are very brief.

The third question was directly refused to answer.

But it also gave Chen Li a basic understanding.

"So, as the name suggests, the power of apoptosis can accelerate the process of biological apoptosis. All living things will eventually die one day."

"Even the cells in my body now, countless cells are dying every moment."

"This ability is basically consistent with Su Ziying's description of Hong Yue's ability."

Chen Li was talking to himself.

"With the power of apoptosis, I can accelerate the life process of others. For example, a person's lifespan is one hundred years old, but if he is eroded by the power of apoptosis, his lifespan may only be a few decades or a few decades. In years, days, or even in an instant, life disappears and they grow old and die.”

He was a little surprised.

This ability is not insignificant.

Shouyuan is a topic that no one can escape.

And he can directly shorten the life of others!

Even if it doesn't work, it can cause the important cells in his body to undergo apoptosis, leaving him in a weak state.

Such a powerful ability actually appeared directly in an E-level dream simulation?
  As soon as he thought of this, the system gave a prompt.

[Note: There is no absolute correlation between the difficulty of the hidden mission and the level of the dream simulation world. 】

As soon as the system prompt came out, Chen Li understood immediately.

"I see."

"Hidden tasks can be regarded as independent and have nothing to do with the main task..."

"The hidden missions in the A-level world may not necessarily be more dangerous than the one I have now..."

After knowing this, Chen Li also became cautious in his heart.

In other words, this hidden mission, which the system calls "highly difficult", is actually much more dangerous than E-level.
