Chapter 260 The Nature of Biology

Ding Youran waved his hand, signaling them to stop shouting.

"Behead these rebels!"

He glanced at the spirit corpses with spears piercing their heads.

Then, he said to Zouping:

"From now on, I will give you the name Dingzi!"

Zouping didn't feel much about this name, but the other spirit corpses were shocked.

The ten kings were named after the ten heavenly stems, and their generals were named after the ten heavenly stems plus the twelve earthly branches.

Each king had twelve generals. These people were the ones that the spirit corpses at the bottom of the world of corpses needed to look up to.

Ugly does not mean ranking second, but the birth of spiritual wisdom at the time of ugliness!

But when these twelve strong men became a symbol, the twelve earthly branches no longer had the function of marking the date of birth.

Instead, they could be replaced by stronger ones!

Or if someone died in battle, the king would promote him from other corpse demons and directly replace his name without looking at the date of birth.

Therefore, although Zouping, who possessed 0735, should be named Ding Chou, he was given the title of Zi as Ding's first follower!

Zouping also learned about this rule from 0735. Although he was not deeply touched, he could see the weight of this title from the expressions of other zombies!

If Ding was really Ding, he would become a high-level zombie!

With this identity as a cover, his lurking was a great success!

It would be much easier for him to harm these zombies in the future.

While he was still thinking about how to use this identity, other spirit corpses had already saluted him:

"See His Majesty Ding Zi!"

The spirit corpses bowed and knelt to welcome Ding and Zouping into the city of Bianzhou.

Then, those names were hung on the highest point of the tower and beheaded in public!

No spirit corpse dared to plead for them. Of course, the zombies were also not united. In the hundreds of years without a leader, they also fought each other.

How could he plead for other zombies now?

Ding established his authority with thundering means. No matter whether he was really the king, these zombies dared not betray him easily.

In the meeting hall.

He was in the first place, and Zouping stood behind him, as if he was Ding's confidant.

Below, those with titles stood, and other ordinary zombies stood further back.

"Tell me about the general situation in these years."

He was reborn by fusing with a zombie with a drop of blood. Although he got the memory of that zombie, the fusion process was resisted by the consciousness of that zombie.

There was a loss of memory.

Therefore, when he saw Zouping, he didn't remember who he was for a while.

Lingwu took the initiative to report. No matter whether Ding was really reborn as a king or other zombies took the lead, since he was already one step behind, he had to seek a position under one person.

His report was slow, but very detailed.

Starting from the Great Silence, all the high-level zombies around them disappeared one by one between heaven and earth.

Some corpse demons also turned into dust after holding on for a while.

Only the weakest corpse demons who had just awakened their spiritual wisdom could resist the consumption of the power of annihilation.

They were also afraid, fought, and set foot in various places to find the traces of the strong.

However, the world is too big, and it is not easy to go to every corner with their strength.

In the end, they accepted this result.

They also accepted the fact that their bodies were gradually decaying and on the verge of annihilation.

Until 0735 brought the news of the appearance of living beings, they rekindled the flame of hope.

......

"Just the night before you arrived, Shan Ling, Lu Er and other 37 spirit corpses led their war slaves and threatened to attack the living beings in the Bianshui military camp."

Lingwu's story made Ding very satisfied.

He couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

This little demon is very perceptive and has good ability to do things. It seems that he can be cultivated.

All his former subordinates were annihilated, and the other nine kings who were equal to him were probably annihilated.

It was a coincidence that he could be reborn by a drop of blood.

Therefore, retraining his confidants was one of the things he had to do.

"You."

Ding pointed at Lingwu and said:

"From now on, your name is Ding Chou!"

Lingwu was overjoyed and immediately kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"You two, follow me, other little demons, gather all those war slaves! Line up and wait for me to check!"

After that, he stood up and walked to the back of the meeting room.

Zouping and Ding Chou hurriedly followed.

"Brother Dingzi, please take care of me in the future."

Lingwu, who had changed his name to Ding Chou, walked side by side with Zouping. He smiled gently, and Zouping was surprised. He never thought that he would see such a gentle expression on the face of a zombie!

But think about it, these zombies have already opened their spiritual intelligence. Except for the red hair and bone armor, their behavior patterns are almost the same as humans.

It seems that they can no longer be regarded as those monsters without intelligence.

What is the essence of living things?

He thought about this question at this moment.

Can they move?

What is death?

Brain death?

He originally thought so, but now, he thinks that as long as this body still has consciousness, it cannot be identified as a corpse!

Even if the former consciousness disappears, as long as a new consciousness is born, it should be defined as a living thing!

Undead creature?

He felt that the statement of being dead and alive was not accurate. Either dead or alive, how could there be half dead and half alive?

Therefore, these corpses did not have spiritual intelligence before reaching the five stars, so even if they could move, they could not be regarded as living things.

But after reaching the five stars and having spiritual intelligence, they should be regarded as a different kind of living thing!

Just like robots, robots without consciousness, although they can move and handle a lot of work, they are not living things.

But once they have self-awareness, they should be recognized as living things!

However, whether these zombies are living things or not has nothing to do with him now. What he needs to care more about is what Ding asked him to follow?

He has been looking for an opportunity to transmit information back. Such an ancient demon king must not be treated as other ordinary zombies after resurrection.

However, since he met Ding and gained his trust, he was asked to follow him closely, and there was no time to transmit information at all.

Ding Chou beside him was trying to show his good will to him, but he didn't appreciate it at all. Instead, he said coldly:

"Serving His Majesty with all your strength is what you should do. Why do you need me to take care of you!"

His words made Ding Chou stunned, and he immediately smiled and said: "That's right, you and I are both servants of His Majesty, and we must die for His Majesty!"

Although he said so, he sneered in his heart. This Lingqisanwu is so scheming!

Ding, who was walking in front, also heard the conversation between the two new confidants behind him. He didn't say anything, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Even though he was once one of the most noble beings among the corpse demons, he was suppressed for hundreds of years and almost truly annihilated, and his former scheming was also weakened a lot.
