#367 - Laboratory Palace Stone Sculpture
What the hell?
Wang Daochang almost couldn't stop the alien soul war puppet from sitting up straight.
Didn't these guys say they didn't have time to look for 'small individuals' right now?
Why are they suddenly jumping out?
Are they playing tricks and feints even with their own people?
Wang Jixuan was surprised, but not worried... At worst, he'd be exposed, and then he'd just reveal that he was the Black Storm, eavesdropping on them all along. Anyway, there wasn't much love lost between them.
He spread out his spiritual sense to explore everywhere.
Wang Jixuan quickly discovered that a small group of pseudo-spirit slaves had mixed into the fire support ships next to the aerospace carrier. The normal crew members inside the ships seemed fine, but the brain areas of some ordinary people were surrounded by a turbid spiritual energy...
Were their minds being controlled?
Without thinking, Wang Jixuan switched his mind back to his main body and gave a simple order to Mudan.
Soon, the aerospace carrier announced that it would make an emergency visit to the surface. The fire support ship invaded by the pseudo-spirit slaves landed on the surface first, while the other ships in the formation reorganized their personnel.
Just as Wang Jixuan thought the matter was over, a slight anomaly appeared at the tail of the aerospace carrier.
A layer of faint gray light flashed by, and the eyes of more than a dozen crew members immediately became dull.
They walked towards the nearby ammunition depot and opened several wooden boxes. Inside, where a batch of ammunition should have been stored, a few men and women with almost zero psionic fluctuations emerged.
These men and women were expressionless, with faint lights flashing on their bodies, which seemed to be some kind of brand-new psionic circuit.
Even Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense had been fooled!
Although it was also because he hadn't investigated carefully, this was indeed a bit surprising to Wang Daochang.
Ordinary people would probably blame themselves for making a mistake;
Wang Daochang, who had awakened his Dao heart, realized he had made a mistake...
'Did the Blade Beasts research a new psionic circuit?'
'Good家伙, do Blade Beasts have this kind of research ability?'
'It shouldn't be. Blade Beasts haven't shown the ability to research psionic circuits. Although the Garinos are smart, they mostly use that intelligence to play tricks.'
Wang Jixuan decisively ordered Mudan to notify the captain of the aerospace carrier to prepare to abandon ship.
The pseudo-spirit slaves had already infiltrated. With the guns in the hands of these soldiers, they had no ability to resist. There were too many weak areas inside the aerospace carrier, and using powerful weapons would easily blow up the ship directly.
His mind raced, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In that case, it would be better to take a trip to the Blade Beast's main camp. Maybe there would be some unexpected gains.
The current problem was, what about the teaching here?
Playing around with Blade Beasts was fine for entertainment, but he couldn't let it delay serious matters.
Just as Wang Jixuan was hesitating, the pseudo-spirit slaves kept releasing gray light, easily knocking out or capturing the minds of those ordinary crew members.
They quickly approached the laboratory.
The captain of the aerospace carrier decisively ordered the blockade of the passage to the middle and upper levels of the laboratory, and opened the emergency passage.
Although opening the emergency passage was equivalent to giving these pseudo-spirit slaves a chance to retreat;
The losses on the aerospace carrier were minimized.
Wang Daochang expressed his understanding.
If he were the captain, he would definitely protect the lives of the ship and crew first in the face of this pseudo-spirit slave attack.
He simply pretended to be unconscious, moved his mind back to his main body, and waited for the situation to develop.
Did the Blade Beasts have a way to control his alien soul?
Wang Jixuan sneered and continued to torment the students.
He had already discovered that he had seriously underestimated the willpower of these human warriors. They were all human individuals who grew up in the desperate environment of the apocalypse and possessed firm faith and collective beliefs.
In some ways, they were even more ruthless than Wang Daochang, who was一心飞升.
It was easy for the cultivation of demonic arts to breed inner demons;
But these people could even easily turn inner demons into their own driving force.
Because the inner demons of most of them were Blade Beasts, and their goal was to kill Blade Beasts, the two perfectly coincided.
Survival was the primary driving force, an unchanging truth.
Training a group of demon soldiers, spreading demonic arts in human society, and then teaching proper cultivation methods to develop a cultivation world with Earth characteristics, winning the continuous war with Blade Beast civilization.
This was the only serious matter that Wang Jixuan now recognized.
......
By the time Fu Jian received the report, the Blade Beast's operation was already coming to an end.
More than a dozen pseudo-spirit slaves, carrying Wang Jixuan's alien soul and war puppet, jumped down from outer space.
Several sub-king-level pterosaurs began to advance in outer space, successfully taking away these pseudo-spirit slaves and the 'weak Garino'.
Just as Fu Jian was about to send out fighter planes to intercept them, Mudan sent a message.
[Commander-in-Chief, my chief said not to worry about it. He's going over there to scout out the news. Now that both sides have revealed their cards, the value of the second war puppet is no longer that great.]
Fu Jian thought for a while and still sent fighter planes to pursue.
The act had to be complete;
If the Blade Beasts got it too easily, the Blade Beasts would probably suspect it.
Taking a step back, if there was a chance to kill sub-king-level Blade Beast combat power, they naturally couldn't let it go;
During the previous relatively peaceful period, the daily task of the D5 Integrated Theater was to hunt down sub-king-level Blade Beasts.
A small-scale fierce battle began.
The human military really thought that the Blade Beasts had intercepted a Garino. They even took extremely radical measures—directly using tactical nuclear bombs to blast away the flying Blade Beast群, trying to destroy this Garino directly.
After several hours of fierce fighting, the Blade Beasts suffered considerable losses, and the humans also suffered losses, but the target Garino was successfully劫走 by the Blade Beasts.
The Blade Beasts thought they had won, that they had completed their established goal;
The humans didn't feel like they had suffered a loss either.
Only Wang Daochang;
He had just finished teaching and had to move his mind back to the Garino side to prepare to collect intelligence, a truly hard life.
Daochang specially summoned Gao Huating to play music beside him, while he concentrated on observing the actual situation of Blade Beast civilization.
The Garino was taken underground, all the way down through the underground passages.
The Blade Beasts' activity area underground generally wouldn't be deeper than two or three thousand meters, which was also the effective detection depth of human satellites.
But Wang Jixuan quickly made a new discovery.
Below the layers of underground passages, like ant nests, there were some intermittent downward passages.
The Earth's crust has uneven thickness distribution. Many areas are high temperature and high pressure, and there is magma. Even if Blade Beasts can survive in this environment, they need to consume their own psionic energy and cannot survive for too long.
But this time, Wang Jixuan's second war puppet was transported relay-style underground for most of the night and arrived at its destination.
Wang Jixuan searched the surface with his spiritual sense and quickly determined that this should be near the Third Pillar, the core area of the Blade Beast's occupied territory.
'This poor Daoist has really penetrated deep into enemy territory.'
Daochang couldn't come for nothing. His spiritual sense stretched out like flowing water, checking some situations that human satellites couldn't normally search for.
The Third Pillar slept in the earth.
There were a large number of glowing stone flakes nearby, and half of it was immersed in a lava lake, which seemed to make it very comfortable.
But the secret here was not the 'Pillar Blade Beast Bathing Picture'.
Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense quickly discovered a huge cave system.
The center of the cave seemed to be a 'nursery', with dozens of bloated Blade Beasts [Mother Worms]. These were the breeding tools of the Blade Beast群.
Every few minutes, they would produce a single egg the size of a person, and these eggs would be carried away by special Blade Beasts waiting nearby and hung throughout the cave.
The cave was filled with dense [虫卵].
From time to time, eggs would break open, and humanoid pseudo-spirit slaves would crawl out.
Wang Jixuan looked more closely and found that constantly昏迷 humans were being sent near those Mother Worms. Every few minutes, the Mother Worms would吞 a human with their mouthparts.
This kind of Mother Worm was a bit like a human industrial流水线?
And those eggs...
Wang Jixuan endured the nausea and probed inside, quickly witnessing the complete process of pseudo-spirit slave birth.
Those humans were all living. After they were吞 by the [Mother Worms], their abdomens would be injected with special Blade Beast eggs, and these eggs would gradually腐蚀 the human soul, secreting strange psionic substances to包裹 and改造 the organs of the human body.
The晶核 inside the pseudo-spirit slave's body was actually a product of the fusion of the Blade Beast egg and the human body.
After the fusion, it was absorption and an upgrade to ensure that the pseudo-spirit slave had good psionic strength when it 'left the factory'.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ 首 ⊥ hair!
'These guys are really disgusting他妈给disgusting open the door, disgusting to the home.'
Wang Jixuan暗骂 a sentence in his heart.
His spiritual sense moved away from the cave system that produced pseudo-spirit slaves and continued to probe, quickly seeing a series of regular and orderly underground structures.
The Blade Beasts' normal育婴洞穴;
Clusters of glowing stone flakes consciously cultivated by the Blade Beasts;
The interaction and communication square for high-level Blade Beasts.
The Blade Beasts also seemed to have a complete social network. This society was clearly hierarchical. The lowest-level Blade Beasts didn't even have the right to move around. They could only sleep at ordinary times and go to be cannon fodder or become materials for their companions to upgrade during wartime.
Basic Blade Beasts also didn't have much autonomous consciousness.
The more Wang Jixuan looked, the more profound his understanding of the theory that 'Garinos are the individuals of Blade Beast civilization' became.
Except for Pillar Blade Beasts, Garinos, King-level Blade Beasts, and Sub-king-level Blade Beasts, other Blade Beasts had almost no ability to think.
General-level Blade Beasts mostly executed orders or acted on instinct to cause destruction.
By the way, Wang Jixuan discovered a Garino who was rushing to his side.
Was he about to be exposed?
Then he would just kill this Garino, let the alien soul go on a killing spree, and get a bunch of pure demonic energy back to灌注 the demon soldiers!
Wang Jixuan's fighting spirit soared instantly.
His spiritual sense expanded outward, and he had already begun to formulate a follow-up killing plan.
Suddenly;
The expression on Wang Jixuan's main body was as if he had seen a ghost, and the Second Battle Puppet controlled by the alien soul twitched a few times.
Boundless, that Great Demon Lord.
His spiritual sense saw something in the outer periphery!
A laboratory!
A laboratory surrounded by Blade Beasts, resembling a small underground city, inhabited by a small population of humans!
The laboratory seemed to be working on some project, and it was possible to see... cloning experiments?
It seemed that the laboratory had been operating for decades. Wang Jixuan could see a lot of rust inside, and the shackles on many old researchers had grown into their flesh.
What are the Blade Beasts up to?!
Are the Blade Beasts raising a group of human scientists?
Just as Daoist Wang felt absurd, his spiritual sense suddenly made another discovery.
He saw a magnificent palace embedded underground. The decoration inside the palace was extremely luxurious, and in the corners knelt a group of beautiful, perfectly proportioned female pseudo-spirit slaves who wore no clothes.
Wang Jixuan probed slightly with his spiritual sense, and several black lines quickly appeared on his forehead.
A square pool, this should be a bath;
In the bath, a naked stone sculpture was soaking in a sitting position. The stone sculpture had clear facial features, carved vividly, and the appearance characteristics and body proportions were actually…
Himself!
If he didn't know it was fake, Wang Jixuan might have thought he had been petrified!
No, no, that's not right, this stone sculpture is him and yet not him.
Wang Jixuan carefully examined it with his spiritual sense, and soon discovered that the eyebrows and eyes of the stone sculpture were a bit like the time when he had just been reborn, and more like Mu Liang's original appearance.
Appearance arises from the heart, and his current face is gradually transforming towards his previous life.
What's the situation?
What's going on?
It was absurd enough that the Blade Beasts were raising a human science laboratory, but how did he also discover a palace, and the palace even has a sculpture of him…
Wang Jixuan was going through a brainstorming session, and that Cari Nore had already arrived nearby.
Wang Jixuan, who had just wanted to attack directly, now urgently wanted to hide his identity and see if he could get past this Cari Nore.
And then go and find out;
What secrets are hidden here!
Goo goo—
Cari Nore was issuing instructions.
Wang Jixuan quickly calmed his mind, perfectly merging the alien soul with the battle puppet, the alien soul condensed into the shape of Cari Nore, simulating a feeling of soul weakness.
Several high-level Preachers stepped forward, carefully using spiritual energy to lift up the Second Battle Puppet.
That Cari Nore gently slid its forked blade limbs, the glass cover around the Second Battle Puppet shattered on its own, and the Second Battle Puppet also began to slowly 'regain consciousness'.
Just like a human opening their eyes after being unconscious;
The Second Battle Puppet activated several spiritual energy circuits in its body.
Goo goo goo—
[Child, you are somewhat special.]
This Cari Nore seemed to have discovered something. The thin wings on its back opened, and the light of the spiritual energy circuits shone on them. One halo after another grew from small to large and struck Wang Jixuan's Second Battle Puppet.
The Second Battle Puppet trembled slightly.
[You seem to be a new consciousness born from our bodies recovered from humans.]
[This discovery excites me.]
[Perhaps, we can proliferate in this way, individual proliferation without having to wait for high-level Preachers to devour each other to seek a slim chance of mutation.]
Wang Jixuan suddenly understood.
The initial birth of Cari Nore should have been a mutation of a high-level Preacher.
[This discovery needs to be shared with them.]
[Child, you should rest well first.]
Wang Jixuan: Goo—
Then he was carried by several Preachers with spiritual energy and sent to a spacious cave not far away, and lay on a flat stone platform.
A large number of spiritual energy circuits were carved on the surrounding stone walls, and Wang Jixuan felt a surge of spiritual energy.
The Second Battle Puppet pretended to be unconscious;
Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense stared intently at the underground palace in the distance.
Very good, he got through it.
The next step is how to lure out the owner of this palace.
