Blackworm star.
Headquarters location.
In the underground base where Li Xiu is located, several scientific researchers are sitting in front of the 4D projection screen, playing casual games out of boredom.
There are virtual reality online games available on Blackworm Planet.
——In order to enrich the entertainment life of the monks and scientific researchers on the Black Worm Planet, the scientific researchers at the headquarters have implemented virtual reality technology thousands of years ago.
This technology is the product of the combination of virtual reality in technological civilization and illusion in cultivation civilization.
Players who enter the virtual reality space can enjoy everything they can imagine in the virtual space.
Such as food, scenery, music, social interaction and cumshots.
The reason why the scientific researchers in Li Xiu's base only play casual games is not because they are not interested in virtual reality online games, but because Li Xiu, the boss, has regulations:
The scientific researchers in the base need to be divided into two shifts, staying in front of the astronomical camera probe day and night, monitoring the messages that may be transmitted back from the N61-001 planet at any time, so as to be able to get in touch with the missing five surviving people. .
The entrance to the underground base.
Li Xiu controlled the humanoid body, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, and walked quickly in from the entrance of the base.
He moved closer to the 4D projection screen, glanced at the data on the projection screen, and said casually: "How is it? Has there been any abnormality recently?"
! !
Seeing their boss suddenly coming to inspect the base, all the scientific researchers were shocked and hurriedly closed the casual games in their personal terminals.
After calming down, the team leader replied: "It's still the same as usual. Except for the monk's consciousness detected on planet N61-001 a year ago, we have almost never found any clues."
"Then don't take it lightly."
Since it was an artificial body, Li Xiu didn't need to worry about gaining weight when drinking coffee, so he added a lot of sugar and cream to his coffee.
So much so that a cup of coffee has turned into a sticky consistency.
Li Xiu used a spoon to scoop out a lump of coffee, sugar and oil mixture and put it into his mouth. He chewed it and said, "The leader of their team is not only at the integration stage, but he is also suspected of having integrated an entire planet. Let's go." A monk in the Fusion stage who has made a breakthrough in the Fusion Star route."
"Monks who take this path often have great potential."
As Li Xiu spoke, a look of reminiscence suddenly appeared in his eyes, as if he was remembering an old friend from the past.
He emphasized: "In short, this person is worth cultivating, so no matter how much time it takes, no matter how high the cost, you must keep looking for me."
"If that doesn't work, I will spend a lot of money to hire another team led by a monk in the integration stage, and come directly to Planet 001 to find people."
…
"Ouch"
In the underground base.
While Li Xiu was chatting with the scientific researchers, a wound suddenly appeared on his right arm for no apparent reason.
Li Xiu's humanoid body could only feel pain about one-tenth of that of a normal person. But the moment the wound appeared, he couldn't help but groan in pain.
"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Li Xiu's behavior, the team leader hurriedly asked.
"I'm fine." Li Xiu waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. At the same time, he looked at the wound with a thoughtful look on his face: "This knife wound seems to not only affect my arm, but also affects me at the soul level." I caused harm!"
"What do you mean?" The team leader was stunned when he heard this.
Li Xiu explained: "I can feel it: this wound on my hand cannot be recovered. Even if I change to another body, there will be no change. This wound will follow me forever until I die." until."
As a scientific researcher, the team leader immediately understood what Li Xiu meant and said in surprise: "Is it the power of the law? Someone wants to use the power of the law to kill you?"
"Probably not." Li Xiu shook his head and said, "If that person really wanted to kill me, he couldn't have just injured my arm."
"So I speculate that the person who hurt me didn't want to kill me, but wanted to use this wound to send some information to me."
"What information?" the team leader asked.
Li Xiu didn't speak, he just looked at the various data about planet N61-001 on the 4D projection screen, and looked thoughtful.
…
At the same time.
On planet N61-001, inside a department store.
Cheng Sheng held a hatchet in his hand and after cutting a wound with difficulty on his hand, he finally couldn't hold on anymore and collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.
Whether it’s Thunder’s hatchet, Living Incense Burner, Buddha’s red hijab, or Mother of Pain’s bracelet.
All treasures with the power of law can only be used by monks who are at least at the stage of becoming a god.
And it will be very tiring during use.
Take Thunder's hatchet as an example: when a monk in the transformation stage uses this knife, he can barely make a slashing motion.
And to make a wound on the right arm with such precision as Cheng Sheng did, one must have cultivated in the Fusion Stage.
I originally wanted to write on my arm to convey a message to Li Xiu.
But a wound on his arm was already his limit.
If you want to be able to hold a hatchet and write on your hand, I am afraid that only a monk in the Void Stage who has mastered the power of the law can do it.
Time is running out.
After Chengshuo cut a wound on his arm, he hurriedly injected a dose of 'Dark Spore Extract' into his body to ensure that he would not be affected by the dark purple mist.
There are currently 29 injections left to survive.
After doing all this, he started rummaging through the shelves of the department store.
Survival is a double plan:
If Li Xiu could understand the meaning of that wound and open a portal with the power of law to meet him, then he would naturally be able to escape and ascend to heaven.
And if Li Xiu failed to understand Cheng Sheng's meaning, then Cheng Sheng would stab him again later.
If the portal still does not appear after two cuts, it means that although Li Xiu understands the meaning of survival, the portal cannot appear because Chengshuo and others have stayed on the 001 planet for too long, or due to other factors. On planet 001.
If this is the case, then Chengshuo will adopt the second option-self-rescue.
This is also the reason why Cheng Sheng is busy rummaging in department stores and supermarkets. He is looking for items that have the power of law and have the function of teleportation.
time flies.
Chengshuo wasted no time, and after about 10 hours, he hit the back of Li Xiu's hand again with a hatchet.
Affected by the side effects of the hatchet, Cheng Xing himself was injured as a result.
The injuries caused by the power of law not only affected the body, but also affected the living soul, making him feel the heart-piercing pain.
Thinking about it, Li Xiu must be feeling equally uncomfortable at this moment.
But I don't know what happened to Li Xiu. Even though he felt this level of heart-piercing pain, he still didn't summon the portal.
at the same time.
After searching for more than ten hours in department stores and supermarkets, I found nothing.
At this point, he has wasted a whole day on Planet 001.
After half a day and another half day, a total of two bottles of 'Dark Spore Extract' have been used to survive, and there are 28 bottles left.
Since something happened to Li Xiu, Chengshuo planned to save himself.
In a department store.
After Cheng Huo ripped off the storage bags of Buddha, Huang Ye, Mother of Pain, and Thunder, he walked out of the supermarket through the purple-black fog that was so thick that visibility was nearly half a meter.
…
The next morning.
On the outskirts of Damai City, outside an abandoned gas station.
After confirming that there were no smiling people around, Maggie Dickens carefully walked out of the hiding place.
He hung a light ball emitting deep purple light on his head, and under the protection of the light ball, he carefully sneaked into the gas station.
This gas station has clearly been visited by survivors. The shelves are in disarray, and almost all food and drinking water have been plundered.
Only useless goods such as rolling paper, disinfectant, car decorations, and home appliances were left behind.
And trash.
Dickens rummaged through the garbage for a long time, and finally found: a pack of cigarettes, a small bag of gummy bears, a piece of coffee-flavored chewing gum that someone left on the ground, and a jar of peanut butter that was expired but should still be edible.
It’s not a loss if you have peanut butter.
After putting the looted supplies in plastic bags, Dickens was about to leave the gas station when he saw a strange man wearing a Yin Yang Tai Chi fish robe blocking his way.
Dickens glanced at the strange man's forehead and found that there was no 'Purple Fog Light Ball' hanging on his head.
Moreover, there is no smiley mask on the other party's face. '
Dickens was extremely shocked to be able to walk freely in the purple fog without wearing a 'Purple Fog Lamp Ball' or a 'Smiley Face Mask'.
He remained vigilant and rushed to Chenghuo: "Who are you?"
Chengshuo stared at the dark purple light ball on Dickens' head with great interest and said: "The first time you saw me, you neither observed what I looked like nor whether I carried a weapon on my waist. He glanced at my forehead first, and then looked at my face."
Chengshuo speculated: "So, I guess the dark purple light ball on your forehead should be a very important item. Not only you will wear it, but other people around you will also bring this kind of light ball when they go out. Is my guess right?"
Upon hearing this, Dickens felt that this person was even more strange.
He frowned and said: "You don't even know about the 'Purple Fog Light Ball'? And you don't wear a purple fog light ball or a smiley face mask, so you haven't been mentally affected by the purple fog. How did you do it? How can you do it?" Do you have any other ways to resist the erosion of the purple mist?"
The purple fog lamp that Dickens talks about naturally refers to the small lamp that hangs on his head and emits dark purple light.
As for the smiley mask
Chengshuo did not respond directly to Dickens. He asked instead: "What is a smiling face mask? I come from a place far away and I don't know much about the rules here. The purple fog lamp ball you are wearing and the smiling face mask , I’ve never even heard of it.”
Are you from other cities?
Dickens looked at Chengshuo and said cautiously: "So, how on earth did you pass through the 'dense fog area' and come to our Damai City?"
"Dense fog area?" Chenghuo asked, "What is a 'dense fog area'? Can you explain it?"
During the conversation, Chengshuo noticed the plastic bag Dickens was holding. The plastic bag contained the food and daily necessities he had just collected.
Cheng Shengxin realized something and quickly took out a small box of coffee powder from the storage bag and threw it to the other party: "Take it, I'll give it to you."
These coffee powders are all in Buddha's storage bag.
As the Buddha got older, he liked to tinker with these things. Now he just borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha and gave them to the other party as a greeting gift.
In a gas station and supermarket.
Perhaps the small box of coffee powder played a role, and Dickens's wariness about survival was significantly reduced.
But he remained vigilant.
He Chong Chenghuo explained: "The so-called 'dense fog area' refers to the area where the dark purple fog is relatively dense."
Since the disaster broke out and the purple mist spread throughout the planet, the survivors in various cities have been completely isolated by the purple mist.
At first, the purple haze can only affect the minds of a very small number of people, while most people can stay awake in the purple haze.
So the whole world has not been affected too much.
But as time goes by, the purple haze becomes more and more intense, and more and more people lose their minds due to the purple haze.
The order of human society began to collapse.
In order to survive, the surviving people began to analyze the characteristics of the purple haze and mass-produced 'Purple Fog Lamp Balls' to resist the erosion of the purple haze.
This allows the survivors to barely survive on this polluted planet.
I don’t know how many years have passed like this
As time went by, the purple haze in some areas became more and more intense, even reaching the point where survivors could not set foot in it even if they wore 'purple haze light balls'.
This kind of extremely dense purple mist is called the "dense fog area" by the survivors, or it can also be called the "deep sea".
The area where the purple haze is thinner is called a 'safe zone' or an 'isolated island'.
"I probably understand."
After listening to Dickens's popular science, Chengshuo followed what the other party said: "The reason why the dense fog area is called the deep sea is because it separates various 'safe areas' into isolated islands, and the survivors on different isolated islands There is no way to contact each other because no one can make it through the dense fog alive."
"Well, that's pretty much what it means."
Dickens thought for a while and added: "But it doesn't necessarily mean that survivors in different safety zones cannot be contacted."
"Whenever the full moon comes, some older communication equipment that doesn't rely much on base stations can still be used."
"Just like radio."
"So we occasionally use radio to communicate with survivors in other safe zones."
"It was a tacit agreement among all of us survivors to use the radio station during the full moon."
Cheng Sheng was not interested in radio, but he was curious about where the "purple fog ball" on Dickens' head came from.
That lamp ball can resist the erosion of the purple mist on the planet to a certain extent.
If Survivor can get one, he can persist on this planet for a longer time until he figures out a way to escape.
