The moment Jiushan and Chu Xinggu's prosthetic bodies passed through the light group, the surrounding scenery would change instantly.
Suddenly appeared over the desert, appeared in the dark trench, and appeared in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment suspected of underground magma.
Jiu Shan overlooks the desert, looks up at the broken moon and stars, and has already calculated his position.
He shook his head: "Guan Luoyang's sword intention has been deeply involved with the two of us. If we are still in the earth, we can't escape the attack that his spirit echoes through the air and pursues."
Another pair of prosthetics appeared in distant space.
The silence is desolate, cold and dead.
Chu Xinggu looked around, but for a moment he couldn't see the familiar blue planet, and he didn't know where it was.
Jiushan looked up and saw a huge yellow-white planet in front of them to the right.
"This is near Venus, which should be where we are. The angle of view is just blocked by Venus, so you can't see the earth."
Two human prosthetics have built-in communication components and can communicate.
Chu Xinggu heard this and said: "In a sense, this place is quite safe."
"Not even close."
Jiushan said, "The danger of space radiation is uncertain, and I can calculate that in one hundred and two hours, we will be facing solar radiation, just with the little spiritual energy we two have now. , it is very likely that strong radiation will cause hardware failure and data disorder."
Soul coding technology can program spiritual energy and consciousness into data, which brings a lot of convenience, but it also means that if the data is disordered, this part of the soul data will directly fall into insanity, and even consciousness will collapse.
In the jump base on the ground, the prosthetic bodies of Jiushan and Chu Xinggu rushed into the light group, waiting for Lu to jump away.
After passing through the light ball, the prosthetic body that can continue to survive can be regarded as the lucky ones.
For some, the soul data stored inside was destroyed the moment they passed through the light group, and it is not known what dangerous environment they jumped into.
The other part is because the transition process is not stable enough, and part of the body is directly destroyed by the shifting space.
Jiushan had a prosthetic body. When it appeared on the lunar debris outside the atmosphere, only the left half was left.
Several more prosthetics appeared together in the corridor made of alloy.
"This shouldn't be Earth."
They walked along the corridor for a while and entered a messy restaurant. Moldy and spoiled food was scattered on the table and floor of the restaurant, and some wreckage was leaning under some tabletops.
The clothes on these corpses have not deteriorated after decades of time. The parts of the body that have been replaced by machines are still the same although covered with dust. However, most of the torso parts only have yellowed bones. .
Jiushan walked to the edge of the restaurant and wiped his palm across the window. The dust was wiped away, revealing the dark space outside and the bright starlight dotted on this dark background.
Closer, you can see huge planets and meteorite belts.
"I asked why five prosthetics jumped here together. It seems to be because there is a device here that weakly echoes the jump base."
Jiushan thought, "This should be a spaceship that traveled between the moon and Mars. However, the moon fell, causing an error in the route. The spacecraft lost its guidance, ran out of supplies, and drifted in space. Silent till now.”
The people on the ship should all be ordinary passengers, and there are no high-level psychics among them. After the supplies are exhausted, the brain will not be replenished with nutrients for a long time, and it will starve to death.
"It's nice here. No matter how deeply Guan Luoyang is spiritually involved with us, there is no way he can project his sword intent to such a far place."
Chu Xinggu breathed a sigh of relief, "This spacecraft has been abandoned for so many years. It seems that the internal air circulation and radiation protection systems are still there. It can be our temporary destination. As for how to get to places where humans live in the future, we will slowly think about it." Find a way."
Jiushan nodded, but did not stop there.
In the Earth Jump Base, the remaining prosthetic bodies poured into the light group. According to the preset procedures, the remaining prosthetic bodies were tried to make the stability less stable without any regrets.
The light group representing the transition node trembled violently, and finally dispersed because the reserve energy in the base was exhausted.
Among the many prosthetic bodies, there were three prosthetic bodies. When they opened their eyes again, they found that they were still in the jump base.
However, they soon noticed a difference. Although the site here was almost the same size as the jump base on the earth, and the large white circular area in front of them was also similar to an umbrella structure.
But it is also obvious that the materials laid in the circular area under your feet are neater than those in the base on Earth. The light and color are uniform and shining, and they all seem to be brand new.
Moreover, the surrounding buildings are different from the dilapidated appearance on earth.
Snow-white buildings, dark-colored windows, and tall buildings that give people a sense of mystery are scattered around this circular area.
Many high iron towers for receiving signals are scattered among them. The upper part of the minaret has a spherical structure with a diameter larger than the waist of the signal tower. Inside the hollow sphere, there are red photoelectrics overflowing, and powerful energy is obviously flowing.
What's more important is the sky here, which is dim at night and covered with clouds and fog.
As the sea of clouds surged, a full moon appeared. The bright moon shone brightly in the sky.
Chu Xinggu looked up in surprise and said, "This is..."
Of the three prosthetic bodies that appeared here, one belonged to Jiushan and two belonged to Chu Xinggu.
Just when Chu Xinggu spoke in surprise, Jiushan spread his hands and placed them on the shoulders of the other two prosthetics, combining the two soul data of Chu Xinggu into one.
At the same time, the three prosthetics stopped operating, and the internal soul data quietly penetrated into the local network along the conductive materials on the ground and was transmitted out.
At the same time, dozens of light red lampposts were turned on on the buildings around the circular venue, gathering from all directions and firmly covering the three prosthetic bodies.
The reason why the light appears pale red is because these lights are filled with a large number of magnetic particles. If you look closely, it looks like red pollen flying in the light.
As soon as the light shone on them, these magnetic particles adsorbed to the surfaces of the three prosthetics in an instant, turning them all into a pale red color.
The powerful electromagnetic force field allowed these magnetic particles to form an unchangeable and stable image in an instant, thereby suppressing all activities of the prosthetic body, making the three prosthetic bodies look as bulky as if they were made of cinnabar and red rock. Statue.
Then, people came out of those buildings.
Dozens of people with vigorous movements and holding silver-white laser guns were all wearing uniform white tight-fitting combat uniforms and full-coverage white helmets. Only two eyes under the crystal mask could be vaguely seen.
They were well-trained and came to the three prosthetics sealed by magnetic particles. Three of them hung their guns behind their backs and stepped forward to lift the prosthetics.
Others followed suit, their muzzles containing the light of laser energy always aimed at the three prosthetics, escorting the three transporters out of the white circular area and into a tall building at the edge for testing.
The test results were quickly transformed into various images and data and transmitted to the large screen in the laboratory. The researchers in the laboratory immediately became busy.
"There are no human brains inside the three targets. It is initially judged that they are three bionic robots, with skeletons of fluorescent alloy, bionic muscle tissue...the model is unknown, bionic nerves...the model is unknown, coolant, repair fluid...the model is unknown , information collection processor… model unknown.”
A young researcher who was reviewing the data on the two screens in front of him reported, "After testing, it does not belong to the technology of any factory in the twelve immigration areas within the Mars ecosystem."
The white-haired middle-aged man with round eyes and hair like steel needles crossed his hands on his chest and stared at the image on the big screen. He turned to the researcher on the other side and asked: "Where is the secret model within the Tiandu military?" ?”
The female researcher said: "I've checked them all, and there's nothing that matches the number."
The white-haired middle-aged man's eyes were slightly excited: "In other words, are they really from the earth?"
The researcher replied: "At present, it is most likely to come from the earth."
"good!"
The white-haired middle-aged man laughed and said, "The Governor has kept you busy for fifty years. There have been several batches of people, but you have not been able to build a jump channel to the earth. As a result, when I came here, I got important clues. "
As soon as he said these words, the researchers in the laboratory showed no expression on their faces and felt a little gloomy in their hearts.
What does it mean to be busy for fifty years?
Although nominally, the matter of contacting the earth has been done since the great changes fifty years ago, it is obviously only in the past ten years that efforts have been really stepped up and the matter of reconstructing the jump channel has been seriously considered.
However, the minister in front of him, Mei Dengfengmei, was Tiandu's operations minister and the governor's confidant. No one would be stupid enough to find fault with his words at this time. They were all busy and active.
"When these three robots appeared just now, were all the parameters recorded?"
Mei Dengfeng said with a smile, "Let's interrogate those three robots too. Oh, it should be called data extraction, right? Anyway, they are all extracted. Let's see what the earth looks like now and how did they get here? "
"Quick! Try to get this matter settled tonight. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the Governor to report your research results."
After some operations, the researcher in the front row said in embarrassment: "These three bionic robots were supposed to be controlled by intelligent programs, but now, it seems that the programs are damaged, and data repair is very difficult. The technology they used is different from Our AI is different."
Mei Dengfeng's face darkened slightly and he said, "Are you saying that the technology on Earth is actually higher than ours now?!"
The researcher quickly waved his hand and said: "I'm not, that's not what I meant, but tonight, I may not be able to complete the data extraction."
"Then don't talk nonsense and try your best to do it as soon as possible."
Maidenfeng said, "In addition, let's see if we can use the data observed and recorded tonight to open the passage for Mars to jump to the Earth."
The researchers nodded.
While they were busy here, the soul data of Jiushan and Chu Xinggu had already left the base and were wandering among the electronic devices with loose protection procedures.
Jiushan observes the city through surveillance cameras in streets, high-rise buildings, trains, and shops.
One hundred and eighty-story high-rise buildings, with glass exterior walls, huge trademarks, and advertising screens, are everywhere. They are all square and square, with only the occasional curved exterior wall, which is also monotonous and pale. The city is reflected on the glass windows. The lights inside.
The commercial district has busy traffic and there are no low-rise shops. Except for those merchants who rent inside the mall building, even the small stores on both sides of the street rent part of the first floor of the high-rise building. Expansion and renovation.
Residential areas are generally apartment buildings with around 20 floors. The environmental greening seems to be various, fitness equipment, antique pavilions, and the details are different, but in fact, overall, the environment of all residential areas is the same.
I don’t know if the designers have no intention or if their inspiration is completely unwilling to focus on this aspect. The joy of life has long been squeezed out. Only higher stimulation that is divorced from daily life can bring joy to the brain. .
Under the night, the whole city is filled with a kind of phantom lights, low and solemn atmosphere, which seems to be either depression and fatigue, or insanity and revelry.
At this time, it should be late at night, but the city is not quiet. The lights in the business district are bright and stay on all night. Not to mention the vehicles on the streets, the racing parties dragging rainbow lights in the sky are like meteors flying all over the sky. Red, yellow, blue and green, each with its own color, it is thrilling to shuttle between those high-rise buildings.
But what concerned Jiushan the most in this city was the spiers that resembled signal towers in every neighborhood.
The metal-framed tower has a sharp and slender geometric structure, without any redundancy, and is full of simple beauty, like a sword piercing the sky.
But in the upper part of the tower, there is always a "spherical structure" that exceeds the diameter of the tower's waist.
There is a turbid, red light brewing in most of the spheres.
The other part of the spherical structure is made of unknown transparent materials, with luminous, real and illusory creatures imprisoned inside.
There are golden antelopes that are galloping to generate electricity and keep raising their heads and roaring; there are vicious dogs that are as black as charcoal, with dark red flames lingering on the surface, and grinning teeth; there are ugly human heads embedded in the middle of the wheels, and there are floating around the wheels. There are clusters of blue will-o'-the-wisps.
There is a giant with swords, guns and halberds inserted all over its body. Its limbs are replaced by machine guns and cannon barrels. Its head is a rectangular box, and its eyes are two protruding tungsten filament bulbs. The shape of the tungsten filament is like a yellow-red smile. Eyes.
There is a resentful woman holding a green lantern, huddled lonely in the place where she was imprisoned; a handsome young man with goat horns on his head, his fingers filled with cigarettes, cigars, and pipes.
Chu Xinggu also saw all this and asked in the online world: "Are those things all spiritual disasters?"
Spiritual disasters on the Wasteland Continent are not uncommon, but spiritual disasters are divided into five levels: flash, binding, wandering, true, and divine. They are based on the characteristics of each level of spiritual disasters and refer to some legends in the earth's classical culture. Divide.
The weakest flash-level spiritual disasters are just some vague hallucinations, which mainly rely on hallucinations to induce various accidents in people to harm human beings.
Binding-level spiritual disasters already have a relatively stable form and can directly move physical objects and kill flesh and blood, but they are often bound to the place of birth, a building, a residence, or a street.
Parade Spiritual Disasters can move freely between different cities, instinctively go to places suitable for their own survival, absorb corresponding human emotions, and grow rapidly.
True-level spiritual disasters have significantly improved intelligence, just like real creatures. In addition to instinctive destruction, they even have their own unique habits and know how to use tricks, traps, alliances and other means.
God-level spiritual disasters are even more terrifying. They refer to the main body of the spiritual disaster, which already has the intensity of ninth-level spiritual energy, and like mythical species, can in turn tamper with the characteristics of humans, beasts, and plants, as its own volume. genus. A cycle of mutual assistance will be formed between the genus and the entity, and the scope of disasters will expand.
During the Great Cataclysm, there were three god-level spiritual disasters, and the strong men on earth paid a heavy price to eliminate them.
In the coalition government, there were two normal eighth level and five normal seventh level psykers who died in the battle.
On the Wasteland Continent, tens of millions of people died directly due to the god-level spiritual disaster "Surtur". Eleven survivors' cities were affected by the disaster. After half a year of intermittent fighting, Jiushan and Leopold and the others managed to divide and disintegrate it.
If Hachiyein's "Spiritual Disaster·Hashun" really came to the world at that time, it would probably have reached the standard of a god-level spiritual disaster as soon as it took shape.
For people on earth, except for psychopaths like Nichiren Yukikai, other strong people, no matter what their stance, will not sit back and watch the spiritual disaster grow.
And the people in this place, after capturing the spiritual disaster, did not immediately eliminate it, but instead kept it in captivity.
Chu Xinggu could clearly feel that various emotions corresponding to these spiritual disasters were being absorbed in the city.
These spiritual disasters have reached the top level of intensity among parade spiritual disasters and are evolving into true-level spiritual disasters.
"I took a look at the device that imprisons those spiritual disasters. It belongs to a huge energy circulation system. It should extract the energy from those spiritual disasters regularly and use it elsewhere."
Jiushan said calmly, "Although the method of imprisoning spiritual disasters is extraordinary, some people had such an idea more than fifty years ago and successfully tested it, so it is nothing."
"What I'm really curious about is the use of these spiritual disaster energies."
Chu Xinggu wondered: "What else can it be used for, other than to store it as redundant psychic signals? They probably haven't mastered the technology of converting electricity and psychic energy into each other, so they came up with this method."
"It's never just that."
Jiushan denied his view and said, "The spiritual energy contained in the spiritual disaster is too paranoid and single. If it is used to bless humans, it will conflict with the human's own spiritual energy. Even if it is used to recharge some special instruments, It works, but it’s also very inconvenient because the power is difficult to adjust.”
"If such a huge amount of effort is just to store some energy that is difficult to use, then it is better to invest these materials in other aspects. Whether it is used to cultivate more psychics or build nuclear power plants, it is far more efficient than this method. Efficient."
"I'm really curious. Where are they going to use the spiritual disaster energy that is difficult for any precision instrument or human practitioner to use?"
Chu Xinggu thought for a while and said: "It's better not to think about this now. There is no 'promised land' in the online world here. I am like this now. I am always disturbed by redundant information on the Internet. There is nothing I can do about it. To restore spiritual power with peace of mind, it is better to have a body in reality so that it can be easily operated."
"If there is nothing on the network here that can hinder your opponent, you can first find us some new prosthetics and use them while disguising your identity."
After losing his original brain, it would be extremely difficult for Chu Xinggu to make another breakthrough, but given enough time, he could still achieve the threshold of eighth level psychic power.
"There is really nothing on the Internet here that I can consider as an opponent. However, their management has very little reliance on artificial intelligence, or even on the entire electronic network. What I can do on the Internet, Not nearly as many as there are on Earth.”
Jiushan said, "Don't worry, I'll take a look at the background information here first, and then decide on the next step."
After a while, he shared a piece of information with Chu Xinggu.
"It is indeed Mars. The first immigration area among the twelve immigration areas in the Mars ecosystem has now been renamed Tiandu."
Jiushan said with great interest, "Before the catastrophe, in order to facilitate the management of the Martian ecosystem, the twelve immigration areas almost did not interfere with each other. Each immigration area was divided into multiple jurisdictions. The most powerful group of people on Mars , is only the first representative of a single immigration area.”
"And now, these twelve immigration areas are all under the rule of the Governor of Mars."
Chu Xinggu looked at the photo of the Governor of Mars and said with some confusion: "This person seems familiar?"
"You may have seen his photo when looking at Yan Zhen's relevant information. This old guy was known as the strongest man in the Western Hemisphere in the 21st century. Later, the world jointly launched a space development plan. He, Yan Zhen and others have co-hosted many major events and have many group photos together."
Jiushan smiled and said, "Of course, you may have seen him from another part of the information. Our former leader died in Tianhuichuan on the moon. He had some secret dealings with this person back then."
Chu Xinggu suddenly said: "Ling Daofu?"
"It's him."
Jiushan thought for a moment, "If it were him, I can probably guess what he wants to do most right now."
"Then give him a small gift."
Early next morning.
Maidenfeng is still waiting in the laboratory.
His popularity has never been good, and his reputation for bad temper has spread widely. However, he always has to be on the front line of every important action formulated by the Governor.
"The data has been repaired and extracted!"
A researcher exclaimed, "These bionic robots seem to store a lot of technical information. They are trying to travel between the Earth and Mars without passing through the moon and multiple jumps."
Mei Dengfeng looked happy, then frowned and said: "The earth has suffered a catastrophe. Even if it is not completely reduced to a wasteland, it will definitely regress a lot. How come the people on earth have developed this kind of technology before you?"
"No no no."
The researcher browsed through the lines at a glance and said, "It seems that we have made some new attempts based on space technology-related information from more than fifty years ago, and the success rate is extremely low. If we hadn't been experimenting frequently recently, we exuded a strong If there is a jump signal, no matter how many times these bionic robots try, they still won’t be able to reach Mars.”
Maidenfeng's expression softened slightly and he said: "Now that we have obtained their technical ideas, combined with the two, can we go directly from Mars to Earth without letting them come over?"
The researchers knew that this matter was of great importance and did not dare to respond easily. They discussed it for more than half an hour and finally gave him an exciting answer.
"Can try."
Just looking at their smiling faces, Maidenfeng knew that they had a good chance.
When breakthroughs were made in mecha material research and space folding technology, the researchers had similar smiles.
Not bad.
Mei Dengfeng slowly opened his smile, and his mood gradually became high.
They are excited about the new achievements, and we can look forward to new big gains.
Even the harvest this time was the Governor's long-cherished wish.
