"In other words, if I dig a hole in the outer wall of the institute, will a water channel be dug out?"
"It is possible, but the possibility is not high. Although the boundary membrane has disappeared, it does not mean that the two areas are still completely and perfectly integrated. Void energy is filled with it, and the distortion caused by this energy is difficult to use in normal length units.
to calculate the distance.”
Because it is direct spiritual communication, Hou Fukuan can understand well what he wants to express, even if the description is vague or even the words are not accurate. Void energy refers to the energy that surrounds the space of building blocks.
, the energy station extracts and utilizes this kind of energy. And the distortion effect created by this energy is also not difficult to understand by comparing the tunnel dug by the team in the subway tunnel area connecting the Blue Bloods base.
"In addition, the earth's lung water veins are similar to flooded karst terrain. Not all are water caves, but there are also dry caves. Also, the boundary membrane is damaged, resulting in a lack of restraint of void energy, and they are clearly mixed together like mercury mixed in muddy water.
But they are not completely compatible. The room we were in just now is a typical example. It is twisted and torn, and then placed in a position that cannot be understood with normal imagination. We call it a natural point, and the boundary point is the entrance and exit.
The portal of the energy vein, currently you can only enter the energy vein through the boundary point." Monkey] continued to explain.
Miao Pu asked back: "Is there a natural boundary point and an artificial boundary point?"
"Yes, the mirror wall of the Life Research Institute in Base A is the artificial boundary point you mentioned."
Nodding, Miao Pu thought to himself: "The skills of these guys really cannot be underestimated. Even if the mirror wall is made possible by taking advantage of the situation, it is really a bit miraculous. With my ability, even before it is activated, it has
No abnormalities were found.”
As if he had guessed what Miao Pu was thinking, Hou Fukuan explained: "The mirror wall is not our work, it is the work of [Yuan Ling]. In fact, many of the technologies we have come from [Yuan Ling].
"
"[Yuanling]..." Miao Pu explained some of the situation of the blue-blooded people to Hou Fukuan, and then asked if the leader of the blue-blooded people was the [Yuanling] he called, and got a positive answer.
"[Yuanling] is an energy creature from the Origin Civilization. It is said that he was originally a high-ranking alchemist. A failed experiment caused him to lose his body and become an energy creature. Later, he was captured by his own people and used as a guinea pig. In short, it was a relatively miserable life.
Duan was finally treated as a puppet soul and his self-consciousness was sealed until the source was awakened this time. In return for awakening it and regaining its freedom, he imparted a lot of source knowledge to [Zun Wang]. [Zun Wang] is
Who do you know?" Monkey explained.
Miao Pu nodded, of course he knew the so-called "King of Desolation", "To", "Zun", "Wu", "Shang" among the "Desolate Gods", ranked first among the "Desolate Gods" in terms of combat power.
"[Yuan Ling] who has had a tragic experience is probably not a righteous person with countless shining points of humanity." Miao Pu said angrily.
Hou Fukuan said: "Of course [Zun Wang] also thought of this, so we later tricked [Yuan Ling]..."
The two of them were chatting and walking. Hou Fukuan was a talkative person and talked about a lot of things like beans. The fog about the mysterious space that lay before Miao Pu's eyes gradually dissipated.
It turns out that [Zun Wang] and a group of [Desolate Gods] entered the underground ruins just for an object. This object is not in the ruins, but in the ultra-secret research institute in Passage B. What is it specifically?
Hou Fukuan didn't know either. The rumors were related to the ability of [Zun Wang], and [Zun Wang] obtained his abilities through experiments on the object. As a strong man with martial arts tendencies, Zun Wang wanted to get the object.
Get more powerful power.
Invading and seizing the object triggered the source of disaster, and the source of change activated the underground ruins, allowing [Zun Wang], who had obtained the index of some stronger power, to explore in depth, liberating [Yuan Ling], and then there was intrigue.
Use of mutual transactions.
The whole incident started roughly like this, and the creator of the mysterious space that Miao Pu had always thought was actually a creature similar to artificial intelligence. [Yuanling] called that thing the [Heritage Guardian].
It is also a puppet soul, [Yuanling] is a test subject, and although [Heritage Guardian] is also an artificial creation, it has a perfect puppet soul. It was transformed into a puppet soul willingly, and the soul box is not broken.
, the will is eternal. And it faithfully carried out the master's will according to the original design. [Yuan Ling] couldn't resist this stubborn idea, and the two sides fought for limited resources. However, the place of inheritance is like a super fortress.
[Heritage Guardian] has a huge advantage here, which is far beyond what [Yuanling] can match, so he naturally thought of driving away wolves and devouring tigers, and using the humans who awakened him.
In other words, there was a honeymoon period between [Yuan Ling] and [Desolate Gods]. As Hou Fukuan said, [Yuan Ling] was generous and faithful to his promises, and he gave [Desolate Gods] a lot.
Benefits. However, due to a certain accident, [Zun Wang] learned that [Yuan Ling]'s best trick is to let the meat rot in the pot. With the help of gravity, he can snatch it all back after using it. What's his is still his.
What belongs to others is also his.
After [Zun Wang] discovered this secret, he did not fall out on the spot, but continued to make excuses in order to get more benefits from [Yuan Ling].
Of course, [Honored King] is not a fool. Since he is seeking skin from a tiger, he should be more careful. Finally, when [Yuan Ling] planned to sacrifice them, [Honored King] knew about it in advance. Now that the matter has come to this, [Honored King] took advantage of the conditions to trick him.
He defeated [Yuan Ling]. It was this successful calculation that caused [Yuan Ling] and [Heritage Guardian] to fight to death, and then there was a relatively stable period in the entire area, and Miao Pu happened to step on it.
At this point, I crossed the Earth Sea and took advantage of many opportunities along the way.
Hou Fukuan and the others are here as a secondary use of the Ding Wu Research Institute and the No.
It was used as a stronghold to fight against [Yuan Ling] and [Heritage Guardian]. Fukuan and the others were not in the underground ruins at that time. They arrived later. From a certain perspective, the [Desolate Gods] regarded this place as...
A base for cultivating members.
Miao Pu naturally asked Zhang Wang, this was the question he was most concerned about.
"There is such a group of people..." Hou Fukuan did not hide anything and told what he knew easily.
After listening to this, Miao Pu realized that the situation was more complicated than he thought. There was indeed a reason why Zhang Wang and them had survived to this day.
In this mysterious space, it turns out that there is another group of people. This group is basically composed of the original researchers and researchers of the underground ruins, as well as the rescue team that later disappeared.
If what Hou Fukuan said is true, then Xie Hongjun, Bu Ji and others are probably not dead yet, but were abducted by this group of people. He has always believed that the [Desolate Gods] were the culprits.
The biggest one, I didn’t expect it, but I was wronged. The [Desolate Gods] didn’t bother to pay attention to that kind of miscellaneous fish. From top to bottom, they were busy using [Yuanling] to fight with [Heritage Guardian] and had no time to pay attention to him.
It’s time to reap the benefits. Hou Fukuan and the others are considered to be relatively behind in terms of investment within [Desolate Gods]. According to them, they are already the 6th batch of entrants.
[Aragami] possess many sharp technologies. To a certain extent, they are as good at exploiting and even creating loopholes in mysterious spaces as [Yuanling].
For this reason, Hou Fukuan said that if Hou and the others had not needed the help of Dingwu Research Institute and No. 1 Base to practice, Miao Pu would have had to overcome obstacles and guess at the same time for a long time.
Miao Pu understood that although Hou Fukuan said this with the intention of raising his own worth, there was also some truth to it.
Without mastering the energy veins, the team would still be able to pass the level honestly, and it would be impossible to skip the level. If Hou Fukuan hadn't disclosed the information to him, then he wouldn't have known in advance the actual purpose of their trip to Tianshang City.
It's not big, it's just a training ground opened by the [Desolate Gods]. Moreover, even if you don't take into account the energy veins, which are dangerous and convenient channels that extend in all directions, the relationship between the building block space is not a single channel stacked upward.
There is a passage in the underground city to leave the Heavenly Prison and go to other building block areas. However, the team lacks the skills to explore such passages and portals. In addition, the thinking mode is somewhat rigid, so they are blind to the mountain. This information also explains why the special demon soul descended from the sky.
In the catastrophic disaster, the natives in the underground city could disappear en masse. If they also took the mysterious passage, how could they survive except being trapped to death? Even if the people of the [Desolate Gods] did not take action, the broken bridge in the void would be
make life difficult for.
The two of them had swam more than six kilometers while chatting, and Miao Pu didn't know whether it was this place that deceived him, or the monkeys randomly choosing this direction. Fortunately, they finally reached the shore.
Hou Fukuan took a long breath and told Miao Pu that the area where the two of them swam before was called the Sea of Decay (Haizi, roughly equivalent to a lake). There was a very scary creature here, the virtual horseshoe crab (c), which
This creature is named because its appearance is similar to that of a horseshoe crab.
Limulus Miaopu knew that there were ancient marine remnants from the Devonian period, hundreds of millions of years ago. They looked like shrimps and crabs. Because their blood contained copper ions, they were sapphire blue and were commonly known as horseshoe crabs. When you hear the monster here,
With the appearance of a horseshoe crab, he knew that this creature was definitely not easy to deal with, especially since the environment here was dangerous, and creatures that could survive in such a place would never be weak.
After thinking for a while, Miao Pu asked: "With your ability to distort space, you may not be able to fight, but you can always escape by running, right?"
Hou Fukuan said with a wry smile: "I learned my skills from Xu Hao. When we first learned the cross-border ability, No. 13 and I were the only ones who successfully completed the ceremony. If there is anything I can't do
If you don’t want to go, this is just one place. We were lucky this time and didn’t encounter those monsters.”
Miao Pu's heart moved when he heard this, and he said: "The training method you organized is quite cruel. The best will be eliminated and the weak will be eliminated. The ceremony of entering the virtual world is similar to some kind of [hunting] adult ceremony. Is it necessary to kill the virtual horseshoe crab?"
"Yes and no, if you want to obtain cross-border power, you need to implant the female void horseshoe crab's supernatural organs into the body for a period of time to cultivate the void force. But those guys are never alone, at least they are a male and female pair, using the void
The power of distortion is their instinct, especially in the Sea of Decay, where the power is multiplied and the target may be expelled into the void. Below the Sea of Decay is a huge void whirlpool, and the constant erosion of void energy creates the Sea of Decay.
Miao Pu was shocked when he heard this. He didn't grow up by the sea. He also knew that there were turbulences, undercurrents, water whirlpools, and water eddies underwater. He might be exiled into the void, but it wouldn't be the same as being thrown into space.
Big difference.
However, this situation also aroused his curiosity, and he asked: "The Sea of Decay has no bottom, so the horseshoe crab just keeps swimming? Even so, when breeding, it always has to go to the shallows to build nests, right? That can't be the case
When is the right time to take action?”
"The superpower organs of the Void Horseshoe Crab work best when they are not in the breeding period. At that time, the force of the Void Energy has not been converted into roots and seedlings, which can increase the success rate of cross-border abilities. What's even more troublesome is that they don't come ashore, but stay in the void.
Build nests on rocks to reproduce.”
"Void Stone?"
"The material that is a perfect fusion of void, water, earth, and three systems of energy is naturally very valuable. However, except for [Zun Wang] who took a risk and got a piece of it, I have never seen anyone who has that thing."
It has to be said that although Hou Fukuan did not show off deliberately, Miao Pu was still intrigued. Whether it was a virtual horseshoe crab or a void stone, he wanted to get some because he instinctively felt that these two things were very important to him.
His superpower evolution helps a lot.
However, even if he forgets how to write the word "death", Miao Pu has not forgotten what the tone of his actions is now. Even if he really wants to explore and hunt for treasure, there is still a long way to go. If this journey across the earth and sea is compared to an ocean expedition, then
They have traveled too far and for too long, and have gained a lot. Even if there were no external factors, they should have returned long ago. You can't know how to advance and retreat, right?
Reaching the edge of the Sea of Decay does not mean finding a way out.
Hou Fukuan has cross-border ability, but he is not a good navigator or geographical ghost.
Since there was no direction, Miao Pu chose a direction and swam all the way to the edge. This was a willful and stupid way. Then, they just continued to go on willfully. After all, no matter which direction it was, they had no information to refer to and could only fumble.
.
One side was a wet stone wall, the other side was an endless darkness, and beneath them was rotten water. In the following time, the two of them basically faced this monotonous terrain.
Miao Pu's nerves have been honed to an extremely tough state. The boring journey and the unknown of the road ahead do not cause him much trouble. Hou Fukuan seems to be more talkative. Since he experienced the convenient communication method of spiritual dialogue,
, he was like a perpetual transmitter, never stopping transmitting information for a moment. But Miao Pu knew that Hou Fukuan was so talkative, because there were actually factors inside to relieve external pressure.
Not everyone is used to facing the dangerous environment in the mysterious space alone, and not everyone has a psychological quality above the standard. Through communication, Miao Pu learned that just over a month ago, Hou Fukuan was just a
An ordinary refugee in a disaster area is at best an immune person, not even an awakened person.
"Your organization controls the means of free entry and exit?"
"Yes, but the cost is very high. As far as I know, it has not been used a few times."
"How did you get in in the first place? Space door, or some other means?"
"I don't know if there is a space gate. Anyway, I have never seen it. We use space gaps to jump. I said before that there are actually not many loopholes in the mysterious space. [Zun Wang] and [Yuan Ling] have learned a lot.
Zhao'er."
Miao Pu thought deeply and said: "[Zun Wang] never thought that as time goes by, the mysterious space will become more and more perfect, and those loopholes will eventually be closed?"
"So blocking positions is our main task. We often perform such tasks from top to bottom."
"Stuck? Like putting something in the door before it closes to prevent it from closing completely?" Miao Pu asked.
"That's pretty much what it means. It's just that it's not simple at all to do it. Many times it's even inexplicable. For example, one of the tasks I performed before was to maintain the mirror wall of the Life Research Institute at Base A. There are cross-border people.
, we basically don’t need that kind of boundary-breaking portal, and maintenance is very laborious. But this is the order of the [King] and must be carried out unconditionally.”
Miao Pu also knew that as a low-level person, it was normal for Hou Fukuan to only know about it but not know why, so he did not get deeply entangled in this issue. Instead, he said: "Your members are very scattered. I met him in the underground city."
When I get to a group of people, their abilities seem to be just that, and they feel that there is a big gap between them and you. You know, I’m not just talking about abilities."
Hou Fukuan was surprised and asked, "What's so hard to understand about this?"
It has to be said that the perspective of looking at the problem makes some situations look weird to some people, while others think it is natural. However, Hou Fukuan still patiently explained: "The front wave, the back wave. On the ground.
Those people in the city are considered newcomers. They caught up with the [Heritage Guardian] and escaped, and the city's ashes can wreak havoc on the ground. It's because of their bad luck."
"It seems that you have experienced something similar?"
"I think saying this is a bit too high-minded about the initiation ceremony. The higher-ups are not that concerned about nurturing newbies, and the management is very lax, but the test is very fatal. When the time is up, you must participate, and you will die if you die."
When Hou Fukuan said this, Miao Pu became increasingly difficult to understand: "In this case, how can the team have any cohesion?"
"What cohesion you need, just execute the order and complete the task, otherwise you will die."
"...But both you and your companions have been very active. I mean, you have taken the initiative to find trouble with me. If you have no loyalty to the [Aragami], isn't it better to do less than to do more?"
"After the newcomer stage, there will be a reward system. Those who have survived that stage are all not eager to gain power, and there is no one who does not understand that only gaining strong power is the best way out. And although the world seems wide here,
No one cares about it, but there aren’t many choices.”
Miao Pu was relieved. Indeed, many people in today's society talk about spiritual freedom and liberation, but they underestimate the power of the other side corresponding to the two.
He pondered that the new people in the [Desolate Gods] could be understood as patients with Stockholm Syndrome. The mysterious space did have the environmental conditions to produce this disease.
Through constant communication, Miao Pu discovered that what Hou Fukuan said may not be accurate and reliable. It was not that he was deliberately deceiving. Miao Pu was always monitoring Hou Fukuan's micro-expressions, and even blood pressure, heartbeat, etc. could not escape his induction. He
I think Hou Fukuan did not lie. Of course, this is also related to his topic guidance. He can avoid topics that may make Hou Fukuan feel embarrassed.
