Chapter 43: Illusion
Chapter 43 Illusion
After figuring out the purpose of Manuka and his group, Li Mengyan felt a stone fall in her heart, because before, she had barely determined Ralph's location through guesswork, but with the life detection device in Manuka's hand,
This proves that Ralph is indeed in the security center and has imprisoned Captain McCas. Manuka's meaning is also very clear. As long as he can help rescue his father, it is completely okay to provide fire cover for Li Mengyan.
.
When Li Mengyan and Manuka rushed to the maintenance tunnel, Du Jin had followed the maintenance sound and came to a small room full of maintenance screens. He was pleasantly surprised to find that the maintenance system here could temporarily take over all maintenance in nearby pipelines.
Without hesitation, he immediately controlled a "retro" mechanical center console next to the screen. Originally, Du Jin was worried about his authority, but the identity of the owner of the body he "seized" was indeed unusual.
Even if he is separated from the maintenance side of the security system, Du Jin can still access it in a temporary capacity.
What Du Jin only checked was whether there were corpses in the passage. Although signs of life activities could be detected in the security center, he could not confirm the situation in the security center due to the angle of the maintenance probe, and after confirming
In the process, Du Jin also truly realized the hugeness of this space ship. The hull, which is at least five kilometers long, has nearly ten thousand pipes. They are responsible for the life supply of eight thousand crew members. This scale makes Du Jin
I am becoming more and more aware of the terror of the interstellar federation at the level of civilization in this world.
According to the classification of living scientists like Du Jin, civilizations in the universe have many stages and level restrictions:
The first level, zero level civilization
Level 1 civilization: The mother star is born and begins to breed life. The forms of life are inherently diverse, ranging from the lowest life plants, inorganic matter, organic matter, including single-cell organisms, fungi, and microorganisms. They are all unconscious, but
Relying on instinctive activities is still a long way from a preliminary understanding of the world. Therefore, this can only be regarded as the most elementary and lowest civilization. It cannot even be called a civilization at all. It can only be regarded as the existence form of some life forms in the early days of the birth of the mother planet.
.
Level 2 Civilization: After a long evolutionary path and favorable natural evolution, these life forms began to aggregate and form organizational structures, from simple to complex, and finally reached the next stage, beginning to have consciousness, but still without self-awareness and spirituality.
The intelligence has not yet been opened. The brain has been formed and can make some of the most basic and simple judgments that are still instinctive. There is still a way to go before we can initially understand the world. We are still unable to interact with nature, let alone use nature to make changes.
It is an advanced activity, but it already has simple imitation ability and the most basic emotions.
The second level, primary civilization
Level 3 Civilization : After countless years of evolutionary selection and correct natural evolution, the best of the lower-level beings on the home planet finally came out and reached a brand new stage. They began to have self-awareness and spiritual intelligence.
Turn on, the brain begins to develop, and it can already carry out the most basic and simple thinking, such as life and death, competition and cooperation, survival and material, and begins to have a preliminary understanding of the world. It has begun to interact with nature, and has begun to use nature to carry out more advanced things.
Activity.
Level 4 civilization: Primitive people, primitive tribes, and primitive societies have finally reached this stage after years of exploration and development. At this stage, society and a country have been formed, and it can be regarded as truly entering the civilized period.
Level 5 Civilization: The landmark achievement of entering this stage is the rapid development of science. Technology has achieved a qualitative breakthrough for the first time. The key to this is the discovery and application of the microscopic world.
Level 6 civilization: With the continuous rapid development of society, continuous breakthroughs and increases in various fields, and the continuous emergence of various high-tech products, the development of civilization at this stage has truly reached diversification, diversification, and three-dimensionality.
, the era of globalization in which the world is gradually becoming integrated. The footsteps of civilization have reached almost every corner of the mother planet. The rockets invented have broken through the atmosphere, and artificial satellites have spread to every corner of the earth. The space station has been established and has landed.
The planet closest to the mother star has begun to explore planets further away from the mother star. With the development of the aerospace industry, civilization has begun to explore outer space. Explorers have set off to the planet closest to the earth, but this stage of civilization is still limited to this planet.
Preliminary exploration of planets within the star system. Civilization’s understanding of the world, the universe, and space and time has once again reached a higher level.
Level 7 Civilization : The sign of civilization entering this stage is that the world has been truly unified, that is, the civilization has achieved internal unity. With the development of space beyond the home star and the exploration of the universe, the civilization has been able to easily break through the atmosphere and reach a distance of several kilometers from the home star.
After traveling through the thousand kilometers of space and landing on the planet closest to the home star, we began to establish an ecological environment suitable for civilization on the planet closest to the home star, and also landed on planets further away from the home star. Inside the civilization
The unification of the world has promoted the rapid development of the aerospace industry. Civilizations have begun to explore outer space on a large scale. Explorers have landed on the planets closest to the earth. At this stage of civilization, exploration is limited to planets within our own star system.
Some exploration.
And Du Jin knows very well that the Blue Star he is in is only a sixth-level civilization. Because of the turmoil and competition between countries, the true unity of civilization seems to be a bit out of reach. To reach the level of a seventh-level civilization, at least one person is needed.
It may even take centuries of precipitation, and if there are irreconcilable disputes between the countries of Blue Star, a war might send Blue Star back to the Middle Ages or even the Stone Age.
But according to the logic of this extremely huge spaceship, he can confirm that the interstellar federation in this world can not only colonize this galaxy, but also have a foothold in other galaxies. This completely puts Du Jin's world to the end.
If there had been a war between the two worlds before, even if Du Jin still favored his own country and civilization, the fact would definitely be an overwhelming massacre on one side. After all, a space-age missile could blow a big hole in the Blue Star, and
The range of Blue Star's weapons may not be close to that of the opponent. This gap is no longer considered a war.
"Even with such a civilization, can't it stop the erosion of the blood seal?"
He had no way of confirming whether the blood moon that Du Jin had seen in his fantasy appeared in the Interstellar Federation, but judging from the situation on this ship, even the armor could not withstand the killings of those zombies, and the blood mark
Is it possible to create even larger and more terrifying mutants? Du Jin simply didn't dare to imagine. He was increasingly convinced that the original owner of the blood mark had either played with fire and burned himself to death, or had gone beyond recognition.
The powerful existence of knowledge, this large-scale biological genetic weapon is simply a nightmare in the universe.
Du Jin suddenly came back to his senses. He seemed to feel the depression and despair in his heart growing more and more, as if he was being pulled by something, which made him a little alert.
"Is this the influence of the blood mark? No, I need to find Ralph as soon as possible to ask about the solution to the blood mark, and then leave here as soon as possible. Otherwise, I myself may turn into a monster under its influence, not to mention that I will have to draw it out by then.
It’s time to look for Li Mengyan, there is no time to waste anymore.”
He bit the tip of his tongue to dispel the negative emotions in his heart. After confirming the direction to the security center, Du Jin rushed there immediately, and less than a few hundred meters away from him, Ralph had already
The crimson liquid was injected into McCas's body, and then Ralph threw away the empty syringe in his hand, looked at the "prey" in front of him who started to look ferocious, and said with a smile in an almost crazy voice:
"Haha, the power of the Holy Seal is not something that you mortals can resist. Maybe you can resist the blessing of God's words, but Max, your weak human body has doomed your fate. Since you will not die until you die.
If you are willing to confess the damn traitor and the woman who leaked the secret of the Holy Seal, then just wait for God's punishment! When you turn into a monster like those Necromorphs and face your so-called relatives and comrades, I hope you will still
As calm and composed as this moment."
"You...you devil!"
McCas only felt that his vision began to be slowly filled with red. His right arm, which had been injected with the unknown dark yellow liquid, was as painful as being bitten by a wild wolf. He could feel the length of his tied hand.
A lot of things that didn't belong to him came out, and the despair and desire for killing in his heart surged out more and more violently. All of this made him extremely painful, especially the hints in Ralph's words. McCas seemed to really feel that he
Mutating into that terrifying monster.
And if someone observes next to McCas, they will find that his right arm is constantly expanding, as if something terrifying is about to come out of it, and the fingers of McCas’s right hand have become bloody, and the sharp bone spurs are directly
It pierced the skin and flesh of his hands and began to slowly extend. After a while, the chair used to restrain him was already covered with blood.
And Max's eyes began to become cloudy. At this time, he was in a hallucination. Ralph and the previous room disappeared, leaving him alone in a desolate world full of flesh and blood and fishy wind.
Raising his head with difficulty, he found that what he was facing was the red blood-stamped statue that he had mined. The strange lines on it were glowing with blood-red light. As for the top of it, McCas could no longer see clearly.
"Go! Become one with your true self!"
"Return to the embrace of the Holy Seal!"
A familiar voice sounded from his ears, and McCas saw from the side his wife, who had been studying for more than ten years, and his familiar son, but their bodies were also covered in blood, as if they had crawled out of hell.
