A whale falls and everything comes alive!
This is most vividly displayed on the corpse of a giant fish the size of this planet.
People in this world who dig up rocks for food are actually eating the body tissues of fish.
But this fish is big enough to feed them for millions of years.
Provided that the fish has not completely rotted by then.
In many aspects of daily life, fish tissues are also fully utilized.
For example, in this big city, there are many tall buildings built with the skeletons of tiny scales and burrs from excavated fish.
This race who migrated here from nowhere has obviously made effective use of the unique materials here over a long period of time.
However, living in this world also has a bad side, which is the lack of many mineral resources, especially the metal substances needed for some synthetic materials.
The rock formations in this world were formed by the impact of meteorites on the fish body in the universe. Although the mineral resources brought there are also very rich, they lack many resources that normal planets have.
This resulted in a migratory civilization with a sparse population, which was originally composed of a small number of people who migrated. The technical level has deteriorated due to lack of materials.
At least when they came here, there must have been a spaceship, but now Lin Xu didn't see even a satellite in outer space.
"Hello, excuse me." Lin Xu greeted him friendly.
Hermann had just woken up and was still a little confused.
But then he remembered what had just happened.
I was having a banquet at home, entertaining some friends from the political and business circles. Everyone was keeping in touch and discussing topics such as how to consolidate power.
Unexpectedly, right after that, he suddenly became dizzy and fainted.
You'll be here when you wake up.
"Who are you, where is this, where, where..."
Gehrman looked at his surroundings and couldn't tell what was going on.
Because he could see clearly that he was now above the sky, with the cold wind blowing on him.
Under his feet was a piece of transparent material that he didn't know what it was, holding his body in mid-air.
Glancing down, Hermann almost fainted from fright again.
"Hello, I want to ask you some questions." Lin Xu said politely.
"Excuse me, I will definitely tell you everything I know." Hermann said with an ugly smile.
"I want to know, what is the Arena of Gods and Demons." Lin Xu asked the question he wanted to know the most.
"Arena of Gods and Demons? Don't you know?" Gehrman was stunned for a moment and said cautiously.
"You only need to answer my questions instead of asking me questions." Lin Xu frowned.
"The Arena of Gods and Demons is an arena built by gods and demons. All civilizations must prove the value of their civilization in the Arena of Gods and Demons. A civilization without value has no meaning in existence." Herman immediately answered road.
"Civilization has no meaning of existence, so it can't bask in the sunshine?" Lin Xu thought for a while and asked.
"Yes, a civilization that failed in the arena of gods and demons is not qualified to bask in the sun unless it regains its honor." Herman replied.
"Then how to get back the honor?" Lin Xu asked curiously.
"Defeat a certain civilization of the same level under the sun and take everything from them." Gehrman replied.
"Defeat the civilization under the sun? With your current situation, this is too difficult." Lin Xu shook his head and said.
"Yes." Hermann smiled bitterly.
"So gods and demons? What are they?" Lin Xu continued to ask.
"Gods and demons are naturally gods and demons. The great gods, the Aki clan, and the cosmic demons, humans, who are ravaging the universe." Gehrman replied.
"Demon humans ravaging the universe?" Nan Zhu next to him widened his eyes in surprise.
"Yes, yes. Is there any problem?" Gehrman noticed something was wrong from the looks on several people's faces and asked in a low voice.
"No problem, can you tell us more about the Apocalypse clan and humans?" Lin Xu asked.
"The great gods, the Apocalypse Clan, are a race that descended from high dimensions, and humans are extremely evil beings born in this universe. Human beings spy on the Apocalypse Clan's authority, so they use various methods to steal the Apocalypse Clan's technology, and the Apocalypse Clan is interested in He was extremely generous and didn't care. Until one time, humans angered the Apocalypse Clan, so the Apocalypse Clan drove away the humans." Gehrman answered broadly.
"Where did you hear this standard propaganda rhetoric of yours?" Lin Xu asked curiously.
"This, this is what the Apocalypse tribe said when our civilization was still in the arena of gods and demons." Gehrman said a little embarrassed.
Obviously, as a politician himself, Hermann knew that this rhetoric was unreliable, but the problem was that given his level of civilization, he could not know any more.
"Okay, don't you know anything else besides these?" Lin Xu continued to ask.
"Well, our civilization has heard some rumors when we first arrived." Herman said after thinking for a while.
"What gossip? Tell me." Lin Xu immediately became interested.
"It seems that the Apocalypse tribe and humans established the Arena of Gods and Demons together, and then for some reason, the humans left. Then the Apocalypse tribe was very angry at the departure of humans, so they started to smear all kinds of things." Gehrman is very smart. He had noticed that Lin Xu and others seemed to be very interested in things about the Apocalypse clan and humans, so he focused on the key points.
"Build the Arena of Gods and Demons together?" Lin Xu frowned.
Lin Xu didn't believe that something like the Arena of Gods and Demons could be done by humans.
But Gehrman didn't know anything more.
Then Lin Xu put him back, and then randomly grabbed a few higher-ups, and the final results were similar.
As for what happened between the Apocalypse tribe and humans, no one can tell clearly based on their current level.
But at least Lin Xu knew that the race that fell from higher dimensions was called the Apocalypse tribe, probably.
And they also learned that the Apocalypse tribe and humans jointly established the so-called Arena of Gods and Demons, but Lin Xu had doubts about this.
Also, Lin Xu also had some knowledge about the Arena of Gods and Demons.
However, we can learn more about it from the video after obtaining enough digital information about this civilization from Zhenxing.
It is said to be a precious scene recorded five thousand years ago when the Arena of Gods and Demons first appeared in their civilization.
"Five thousand years ago? Didn't it say that this arena of gods and demons was established ten thousand years ago?" Nan Zhu asked confused.
"Ten thousand years ago, this civilization was still eating hair and drinking blood." Zhenxing replied.
"Oh, let's continue." Nan Zhu gestured as he sat down on the sofa.
As a result, in the cockpit of the Skylark, the front wall lit up, and the wall that already had a display function acted as a projection.
Nan Zhu held potato chips in one hand and a cup of milk tea in the other. From time to time, he fed Lin Xu, who was also sitting on the sofa next to him, and watched it like a movie.
Lu Yao, who was sitting on the other side of her, was holding a bucket of popcorn in her hand, exchanging it with Nan Zhu's potato chips from time to time.
Mu Xiyue, who was on the other side of Lin Xu, didn't like snacks that much, but she still had her hands free, playing with Lin Xu's fingers and peeking at Lin Xu's expression from time to time, as if she was afraid that Lin Xu would notice.
However, Lin Xu really didn't notice. His attention was completely attracted by the pictures in the video.
Apparently, the person who shot this video five thousand years ago did so with random equipment, so the picture was extremely shaky.
But the clarity of the picture is pretty good, and you can still see clearly what's going on.
The owner who took the video at that time was probably having lunch in an outdoor restaurant.
The owner of the video originally wanted to record the lunch scene, but ended up recording everything that happened.
First, the ground shook with a roar. The owner of the video thought it was an earthquake. He was about to hide, but suddenly he found that everyone around him was staring at the sky in stunned silence.
So he also looked toward the sky, and at the same time, the camera turned to the sky.
Something incredible happened. A tower of unknown height and size appeared in the sky.
The tower fell from the sky, separated the sky and the earth, and immediately broadcast to everyone in the world.
Congratulations to the current civilization for being selected to join the Arena of Gods and Demons.
Gained a precious opportunity for unlimited evolution.
This is a game about evolution, and the victorious civilization may even have a chance to claim the throne of god.
"Lord Lin Xu, why does this plot of the arrival of a tower and the evolution of the world look so similar to a certain Lu!" Nan Zhu suddenly said while chewing potato chips.
"You can't stop your mouth even if you eat." Lin Xu reached out and grabbed a piece of potato chips and said.
"Isn't this Arena of Gods and Demons really related to humans? The sense of déjà vu is too strong." Nan Zhu couldn't help but worry.
"Yeah, what about magic, cultivating immortals, and even cyberpunk, and now it's a certain deer again. Such bad taste comes from the same line. If you want to say that it was not done by humans, I don't believe it now." Lu Yao was aside. He nodded repeatedly.
"Don't make trouble, how could we do such a thing? The Tianqi tribe must have seen this, so they must have imitated it." Lin Xu said without admitting anything.
The video screen is still playing. In short, everyone in the entire civilization can enter the tower, go to the trial space to experience, obtain rewards, and then become stronger.
In the end, there is a fight between civilizations. The winner gets everything and the loser gets dust.
"Acquire various skills and then become stronger? What a mess. No matter how strong an individual becomes, what does it have to do with the evolution of civilization? And even if you become stronger, you know it but don't know why, and you don't know the principle of skills at all. , and it cannot be applied to the progress of civilization. It is just that personal strength has become stronger, what is the use of it." Nan Zhu frowned more and more as he looked at it, and couldn't help complaining.
"Yes, and my personal strength has become stronger. The source of my strength is also given by that tower. I can take it away if I can give it to you. Is this really your power?" Lu Yao also complained.
"Look at their civilization, they have gradually begun to pursue personal power more and more, and even scientific development has stagnated. Is this really a game for evolution? I think it is hindering evolution, right?" Mu Xiyue also made a rare complaint.
"That's right, I think this Arena of Gods and Demons must have nothing to do with humans. How could humans do such a thing." Nan Zhu stood aside and said clearly.
"Yes, this was definitely not done by humans." Mu Xiyue also nodded immediately.
The video continued to play, but it was no longer from the perspective of the person at the beginning. Instead, many different videos were cut into it, and there were even official news broadcasts.
In short, since the arrival of the tower, the atmosphere of the entire civilization has changed.
Everyone is pursuing to enter the tower and become stronger.
More and more strong men appear in this civilization, and the force belonging to the civilization becomes increasingly difficult to restrain these individually powerful men.
Slowly, various privileges belonging to the strong gradually appeared.
Later, classes slowly began to re-differentiate.
The strong want to rely on their own strength to monopolize power forever, and naturally they are not willing to continue the development of civilized force.
So the strong ones used their influence to slowly stop the research on various advanced weapons.
The strong ones boast that their own strength is enough to ensure the continuation of civilization, enough to help civilization win the victory in the arena of gods and demons, and win the competition with other civilizations.
There is no need to waste time and money on researching advanced weapons. Wouldn't it be nice to just give the money to everyone so that everyone can enjoy it together?
As a result, the whole people cheered that the era came when there was no need to spend huge sums of money to research weapons.
The army has no budget and is falling into disrepair.
The money originally invested in the military was invested in the welfare of the people, and the people naturally continued to cheer.
As for the powerful slowly monopolizing all rights through this, who cares? Anyway, those strong people are so superior that they have nothing to do with ordinary people.
As for the strong men who gradually became more and more unscrupulous in their behavior, and even started killing people in the streets, there was no official restraint.
When a small number of people woke up, it was already too late.
The army has been abandoned and it is impossible to rebuild it.
The research on advanced weapons is withering away as scientists are dying, and it is impossible to start from scratch.
Just like the beautiful country in the 21st century, once de-industrialized, is it thinking about re-industrialization? What good things are you thinking about?
However, because of the strong strength of the strong, everything still looks beautiful on the surface.
Until, the arena war with another civilization comes.
Everything came crashing down.
The remaining people fled their homes with the only remaining spaceships and fled here to survive.
Looking at everything shown in the video, Nan Zhu gradually couldn't eat potato chips anymore.
"It's up to you." Mu Xiyue said rather angrily.
"Actually, according to their original development model, they may not be unable to develop if they develop slowly. But they were interfered by some external tower and involved in the Arena of Gods and Demons. They seemed to have gained a lot of benefits, but all the fate The price of the gift has already been marked secretly." Lu Yao said with emotion.
"So, are all the civilizations in this river system still struggling in this arena of gods and demons?" Lin Xu turned his head and looked out the porthole at the scenery of stars and rivers in the sky.
"But what is the purpose of this dimension-reduced Apocalypse clan in setting up this arena of gods and demons?" Nan Zhu asked puzzled.
"Who knows, it can't really be to help backward civilizations evolve, right?" Lu Yao curled her lips.
"By the way, didn't they get a lot of special power from the tower? I haven't seen any individual in this civilization have that kind of special power." Nan Zhu suddenly asked curiously.
"Since we lost the match in the Arena of Gods and Demons, our power may have been taken back." Lu Yao guessed.
"I also want to see what kind of special power it is." Nan Zhu said with a little regret.
At this time, Lin Xu, who was consciously checking what video he wanted to watch next, had a strange expression.
"What's wrong, Master Lin Xu?" Nan Zhu noticed Lin Xu's expression.
"It's nothing. Don't you want to know what kind of special power it is? See for yourself." With that, Lin Xu played the next video.
There are many detailed records on it, all kinds of strange and weird powers.
In addition to directly increasing physical strength and physical strength, there are even various bloodline enhancements, and even enhancements such as internal strength, magic, and immortality.
"Xiu Xian? It's not a nanorobot, right?" Nan Zhu's eyes widened again.
"Impossible, how could humans do something like this that hinders the development of other civilizations? There must be some misunderstanding that we don't know about." Mu Xiyue was the first to disagree.
"I don't think humans would do such a thing." Lu Yao also agreed.
"I didn't say it was done by humans. I just think it's a bit strange that this cultivator appears in the enhancement options." Nan Zhu quickly explained.
"Not only is the cultivation of immortals strange, the rest of the inner strength and bloodline are also strange, especially the vampire bloodline, and some bloodlines unique to anime. They are completely something that only exists in earth culture. This arena of gods and demons cannot be real. There are humans involved in it." Lin Xu didn't believe that humans would be involved at first, but now he is half-convinced.
"Impossible, humans would definitely not do such a thing." Mu Xiyue rarely retorted to Lin Xu.
"Yes, I think it's definitely not the case." Lin Xu smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Mu Xiyue's long hair, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
The investigation of the big fish the size of the planet is almost over.
Various autonomous mechanical aggregates that took samples from various parts of the big fish were all returned.
The Skylark got back on the road and continued towards the river system not far away.
After just another space jump, the Skylark entered the interior of the river system.
This area is still in a relatively remote area, so the stars are extremely sparsely scattered.
And then after the Skylark made several space jumps, the Skylark completely entered the interior of the river system.
Within the galaxy where stars are densely packed, various civilizations are also extremely dense.
From afar, hyperspace radar and quantum radar detected the existence of civilization in more than one galaxy.
At the same time as civilization was discovered, the hyperspace radar also discovered more than one giant goldfish the size of a planet swimming among the galaxies inside this river system.
Some of these planet-level monster fish are only the size of the Earth, while others are dozens of times the size of the Earth.
At the same time that the Skylark's radar signal detected these strange fish, the huge eyes of these strange fish turned, and they all turned their attention to the Skylark, which was hundreds of light years away.
At the same time that the Skylark discovered them, they also discovered the Skylark.
In other words, it was the discovery of the Skylark's unique information related to high dimensions.
That is something that ordinary civilizations cannot detect. Only civilizations that also have a certain understanding of higher dimensions can detect the information.
"Master, we have been discovered." Zhenxing also reported to Lin Xuhui.
"Are these fish intelligent?" Lin Xu asked.
"It has limited intelligence and is more like a biological computer that can only execute fixed programs." Zhenxing replied.
"Computer, so it's not these fish that discovered us, but the Apocalypse tribe behind them, right." Lin Xu nodded.
"You can think so." Zhenxing replied.
"So our infiltration investigation plan failed before it even started?" Nan Zhu couldn't help complaining.
"Yeah, it seems like it failed, but it's not surprising." Lin Xu said with a smile.
Indeed, it is a race that fell from a higher dimension after all. Even though it is no longer a high-dimensional race, its heritage is still there after all.
Although Lin Xu is now a high-dimensional life, the technology he currently possesses is only equivalent to the level of technology when humans first met the Apocalypse tribe ten thousand years ago.
If this could not be discovered, Lin Xu would doubt the value of the Tianqi clan.
"Then what should we do now, Master Lin Xu?" Nan Zhu asked.
Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue, and Lu Yao next to them all looked at Lin Xu, waiting for his decision.
"Of course I'm going to welcome you. We represent human beings now, so we can't be looked down upon by our old friends! Although this is my first time meeting this old friend," Lin Xu said with a smile.
Then he ordered the Zhenxing to "choose the nearest fish to jump over, and at the same time start the broadcast, saying that humans are coming to visit."
"As ordered." Zhenxing replied.
The nearest planet-level monster fish is located at the edge of a galaxy thirty light years away.
After an hour of preparation for the jump, the Skylark sailed into the jump channel.
When he reappeared, he had already reached the edge of that galaxy.
Not far away was the giant red strange fish that was several times larger than the Earth, swimming at the edge of the galaxy.
Lin Xu's arrival seemed to disturb this huge red strange fish.
The strange fish changed its original trajectory of swimming around the star, swung its tail, and swam towards the Skylark.
And the strange fish moves extremely fast in the universe.
There is even a space bubble formed around the body, which obviously has the ability to navigate through curvature.
Therefore, the strange fish arrived near the Skylark in the blink of an eye at a speed several times the speed of light.
Then the strange fish stopped.
Two eyes as big as a continent were staring at the Skylark, which was small and dusty compared to the strange fish.
Immediately afterwards, the planet-sized strange fish nodded towards the tiny Skylark as if to say hello.
At the same time, the Skylark also received a signal from a strange fish not far away.
The signal only had two words plus a question mark, as if it was filled with confusion.
"Humanity?"
