Vol 2 Chapter 679: Return with a good harvest (6000)

  Chapter 679 The Harvest Returns with a Reward (6000)

  The subspace demon is essentially a kind of spiritual life. The scientific name of the big taxonomy is 'void spirit'. It is a strange life that mainly appears in the virtual world, but is also distributed in the material world.

According to the information given by the shimmering cradle and the silver chip, the subspace demon is just a well-known branch of its outline, just like the cockroach in the insect class. Although there are countless types of insects, as long as we talk about pests and annoying When it comes to insects, most people will immediately think of cockroaches.

  The subspace demon is the most notorious type of ethereal.

The vast majority of demons have no entity, and exist in virtual worlds and subspaces in the form of psionic spirits and thinking aggregates. Because they prefer to live in chaotic, chaotic environments that are on the verge of collapse, they are more common in subspaces. Hence the name.

  The demons born from the abyss of the virtual world are only extremely weak insects at first, but if they are parasitized by them, the parasitized life forms will be completely corroded and corrupted from soul to body.

  In the end, a complete demon will hatch from a completely collapsed host body. At that time, the demon will have intelligence that is normal or even beyond that of the parasite. If the body is intact, it will also have a body.

  According to the data, there was even a case where an entire race was hatched by demons in the universe.

  At that time, as soon as the life of this civilization is born, it will become the cultivating embryo of the devil, and the original wisdom and talent will become the accumulation of the devil, creating a huge devil empire.

   This demon empire also launched expeditions to many other civilized countries, eroding their societies, capturing their heroes, eroding and corrupting them, and turning them into their own forces.

   This is the devil, a kind of extremely evil virtual parasite.

  Even if it is a silver chip that has always been mild, with a label of "edible/inedible" at most, it has given the evaluation of "requires guardianship and treatment" to the subspace demon.

  Even the brain devouring swarms don’t have this treatment!

  Theoretically speaking, the Void Mech God is also a type of Void Spirit, but because it is more orderly, it is completely different from the devil in essence.

Even, the reason why the machine gods bred by the pre-epoch civilization virtual environment program like the "final deleter" wanders in the virtual environment where the major human gathering places are located, and performs "purification work" may be to eradicate similar " The possibility of the birth of subspace evil things like demons.

   If you have to say it, one is the virtual world vaccine and the other is the virtual world virus.

  Machine may seem terrifying, but it is actually the unknown guardian of human civilization. This is probably the reason why many countries adopt a "cautious observation" attitude towards Mech God of Void Realm without conducting excessive research.

  —When a supposedly buggy program is running effectively, it's best not to mess with its code.

  As for Xio's toxin...

   Obviously, the King of the Mountain fought a **** battle with the devil in an unknown area. The corrosive toxin of the devil even affected the unborn child, so Xio was born as a monstrosaurus.

   Fortunately, the King of the Mountain dealt with it in a timely manner, otherwise, the King of the Mountain might not have given birth to Xiou, but a real demon dragon.

  In that case, things will be difficult.

   "It seems that the demon who fought against the King of the Mountain back then was also a fairly high-ranking demon. I don't know where it is, but there is a demon of the fourth energy level..."

Withdrawing his thoughts, Ian felt quite emotional in his heart: "This place in Terra is really full of strange things. I do vaguely remember that there were records of demons in books like the Abyss Prayer, but I thought it was just some kind of fiction. The unique name of the monster in the realm."

   "I didn't expect it to be a large group of virtual creatures?"

  Ian intends to go back and check the relevant information. There must be information about demons in the books related to the Void Realm.

  Adbert might know a little bit.

  As for now...Ian still doesn't know if the existence of demons is a secret in Terra. Siou hasn't been cured yet, and the King of the Mountain probably doesn't have the heart to tell Ian about his injury and poisoning.

  His emotional intelligence is not low, and he won't keep asking about past mistakes at such a critical moment.

and…

  Ian didn't know why, but suddenly thought of Huaiguang Church.

  Huaiguang Church created the new life and death of the clergy... If you strip off all the sacred cloaks, in terms of essence, it feels a bit like the process of demons eroding life and creating a new life.

   is just the final result, what is created is not the incarnation of pure chaos and evil, but the complete opposite, an 'angel' full of good intentions.

   Moreover, Huaiguang only selects people who are dying, and will not forcibly convert a normal living person to become a priest.

  —Is it technology related to demons?

   Or is it true that all the technologies related to psionic energy in the virtual world must use death or dying as an opportunity to reverse and resolve?

  Ian didn't know whether the information he knew was taboo, so he didn't dare to ask rashly.

  Knowing too much is also one of the unique afflictions of prophets.

  Xio still needs to continue to purify for a week or two before returning to normal. The next recovery depends on the real dragon's physique.

  In general, it doesn’t make sense for Ian to stay in the holy mountain. Anyway, with the king of the mountain, the real dragon, watching over him, Xiou’s safety will not be a problem.

   If it doesn’t work, Ian can also remotely control the Twilight Cradle.

  After bidding farewell to the King of the Mountain, Elder Manya and Anfa, Ian returned to Avod alone, preparing to return to Xiahui.

  This trip to the Dragon Worship was perfect. After repelling the envoy of the Dragon Worship in Feiyan, and finding new fragments of the spaceship that fell from the sky, Ian proved his identity as the envoy of the Dragon God, and helped his side liberate the combat power.

According to the King of the Mountain himself, if the King of the Steel Winged Dragon was not distracted from taking care of Xiou, even if he could use the power of the Flame Land to stand in a stalemate with him, it would be absolutely impossible for him to be evenly divided like before—he is a real dragon, and he is definitely stronger than the steel pterosaur. Subdragons like pterosaurs are stronger.

   And Xiou didn't say much, as long as he can have the strength of the peak of the second energy level, he will definitely not drag down the king of the mountain.

  At that time, the king of the mountain, who has recovered his full strength, can lead the imperial mountain people headed by the Avod tribe to launch a counterattack.

  At this moment, Qingchao also returned from the banquet celebrated by the mountain people.

  The swordsman of sea descent obviously drank a lot of wine, even if he was not drunk as a sublimator, the smell of alcohol could not escape from his body.

  Especially in the other party's arms is still holding a stack of mountain people's special wheat cakes, he is eliminating these carbohydrates with such efficiency in one and a half bites, and looks quite comfortable.

"How about it?"

  Ian didn't care at all, but nodded with a smile: "How many did you find?"

   "Eight, boss."

   Swallowing the wheat cake in his mouth, Qing Chao smiled and made an 'eight' sign.

  He is a professional mercenary, and his professionalism is not that bad. He eats by himself when his lord goes to work—the reason why Qing Chao attended the banquet of the mountain people was because of Ian's instructions.

  He was looking for spies that might be lurking in Avod's department based on the 'characteristics' given by Ian.

   Of course, eat something good by the way.

   Qing Chao walked around the banquet, drank a barrel of wine, and ate half a table of food, and indeed found many spies.

   It sounds miraculous, but in fact, Ian just remembered the breath left by the flying flame-worshiping Dragon Worship envoy 'Mirror Blade' while fighting.

  The boy is characterized by this aura, so Qingchao can find the Avod mountain people who have been in contact with the other party in private, and he will naturally find some spies developed by the Griken in the Avod department.

  Of course, it may not be a spy either, but simply left a mark of snooping...but the result is the same.

   "Leaving this list is also a thank you to Elder Manya. Even if we don't catch all of them, so many people will definitely wake up the elders and conduct a screening."

  Ian thought so, and he praised: "Well done, Qing Chao, the efficiency is so high!"

"of course."

Qing Chao is quite proud of this: "Essentially, this is the same as swordsmanship. A person's daily behavior has its own rhythm and rhythm. Once it is messed up, the whole person's taste will become weird, just like a person who is good at swordsmanship. It's like the person with the fast sword in the left hand suddenly starts sweeping with the heavy sword, the rhythm and rhythm are completely chaotic."

   "As long as I screen out people with this strange smell, I can quickly find people related to the smell you mentioned, Boss!"

  —It’s swordsmanship experience?

  Ian expressed doubts about this, but since Qing Chao said so, let’s just believe him...

"correct."

   Speaking of this, Ian had an idea in his mind. He signaled Qing Chao to approach. Although the swordsman of sea origin was a little confused, he still leaned over.

   Then, Ian raised his hand and pressed it on his forehead.

"what?"

  Qing Chao didn't understand what Ian was doing for a while, but soon, he heard Ian's voice: 【How, can you hear me? 】

  Qing Chao raised his head and looked at Ian, only to find that his lord was only smiling and didn't speak: 【It seems that I can hear you. Yes, this psychic skill is indeed worth analyzing]

"This is?!"

To say that Qing Chao didn’t understand would be to underestimate him. As an elite mercenary who can be employed by Platinum Workshop for a long time, he quickly understood that this is a kind of spiritual power that can communicate with the soul: [However, Boss, I remember that your psionic ability is not an observation system...]

  Actually, with Qingchao's character, he wouldn't ask such a question—what exactly is Ian's spiritual power, and why does he need to know?

   Unless Ian took the initiative to tell him, otherwise, Qingchao would not guess a word, let alone ask.

  He just doesn't understand internal affairs, and he doesn't know anything about politics, but when it comes to IQ and personality, Qingchao has always been good.

   But the psionic network will allow this idea to become a communication.

  【It’s just a small trick】

  Ian also knows that Qingchao doesn't intend to ask. He is currently experimenting with the supporting technology "Bug Swarm Mind Network" obtained from the parallel world swarm, and found that this technology is indeed good.

The psychic network of the worm nest is not psionic energy, but a special psychic organ. The physical entities are diffusers and receivers, which can increase the contact range of the network—Ian speculates that there must be someone in the worm swarm responsible for transmitting signals. 'Base Zerg' is responsible for maintaining the command and remote control of the swarm masters to other swarms.

Ian simulated its structure with his own psychic energy, and then blessed Qing Chao's body, so that Qing Chao could also have the ability of the spiritual network for a short time, allowing Ian to talk to Qing Chao's mind, and even briefly see what Qing Chao could see. thing.

  However, this kind of psychic structure is very primitive, and there is not much information to be transmitted... Especially the transmission of mood and thinking must be very close.

   This is very close, not even hundreds of meters.

  Ian instructed Qing Chao to stand 20 meters away, and found that the transmission of the signal was somewhat distorted. The information transmitted from Qing Chao's perspective was almost 700 degrees of myopia, and he couldn't see clearly at all, and the sound was all noise.

   This is certainly the reason why there is no physical entity to strengthen the signal, but it is really too bad.

  Ian understood that this psionic energy network is completely dedicated to the swarms—bugs, as long as the general order is passed on and the general information is passed on, it can be used as big data.

   Simply put, it is the ‘compound eyes’ in the mind.

  Even if a single bug sends back very little information, as long as tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of bug swarm individuals transmit information, the bug master can clearly see the whole picture of the field no matter what.

   Moreover, bugs don’t have complicated emotions or thinking, so it’s good to be simple, easy to maintain, and it’s not easy to make mistakes when giving feedback.

   "No wonder, in a world that clearly has psychic powers, the empire is still developing information systems."

  Ian thought of the standard armor of patrolling knights, and couldn't help nodding his head slightly: "Until the problem of receiving and sending psychic signals is solved, electronic signals are more practical. At least it's easier to repair."

   Having said that, Ian believes that the empire is also very clear that compared to the psionic network that can truly communicate with each other, the electronic signal network is just a temporary substitute.

   Wait until the technology advances, the spiritual network will definitely replace the electronic network.

  It’s like just now, the most real thoughts in Qing Chao’s heart emerged... This is certainly not a good thing for individuals, but if it is on the battlefield and other places that require real cooperation in a real sense, this kind of common thinking definitely has its advantages.

  As long as they cooperate well, it is enough to achieve a team where one plus one plus one is far greater than three.

  Ian also thought of his brother 'Elan'.

  Although Elan has not fully awakened his psychic power now, part of the ability displayed by his psychic potential is to sense the mood and state of "individuals" such as Ian who care about him.

  Although it was only one-sided, Ian didn't even know when Elan would communicate...

  But if this kind of psychic power can be paired with a psychic network...

   Perhaps, an evolution can be ushered in?

  But that's all for later.

  Shaking his head slightly, his thoughts turned back to reality, Ian disconnected his spiritual network, and asked Qing Chao how he felt: "How is it?"

"feel a little scared."

The swordsman thought for a while and replied solemnly: "At that moment just now, I thought I didn't have any secrets—although I have nothing to hide from you, but everyone understands that sometimes, a flash of truth flashes through my mind. Some not-so-good thought fragments... No one wants to let people know about this kind of stuff."

  When he said this, Qing Chao felt lingering fear.

   Obviously, everyone has to have a little secret for healthy relationships.

   You have to know everything, and if you don’t know, you can’t make decisions. That’s not a good leader, it’s sick.

   "This aspect must be corrected."

Ian nodded slightly, thinking in his heart: "This is probably the reason why it is difficult to develop a psychological network... After all, people are independent and have their own inviolable thoughts, so intelligent life forms... and hive swarms This kind of Gestalt existence with the mind network as the main body is quite different.”

   "So, the filtering and selection of thoughts inside the psychic network, as well as things like the psychic firewall, have to be thought out in advance for technical reserves."

  This is actually the reason why Ian came out with Qingchao—a lot of times, Ian wanted to try something new, but he alone was not enough, he had to find another partner.

  When I was in the imperial capital, half of the subjects of this experiment were Isengarde and the other half were Birch Dark Frost Butterfly. They were all happy to help Ian.

  Back to Nanling, there are Scott, Qing Chao and others.

  After leaving the list of spies, Ian bid farewell to Elder Manya who had returned from the holy mountain.

   "You said, you are going to raid the Midra Autonomous Region... Well, it is a good idea. When we fight the rebellious mountain people in the Frodo Autonomous Region, you will directly raid the rear."

Elder Manya had guessed Ian's thoughts for a long time, but he still had some doubts: "The defense of the Kemidra Autonomous Region is very strict, and Kod Jiamu is a smart man, and he values ​​his lair far more than other chiefs. As long as you As soon as news of the troop deployment spreads, they will go on the defensive."

   "The Jiamubu and the Midra Autonomous Region, which were armed by Feiyandi, are absolutely impenetrable for us. Even the regular army from Nauman City will have to suffer when marching in the mountains."

"Yes."

  Ian is also very aware of this, so he has already prepared: "So I will not lead the army to make a surprise attack."

The white-haired boy smiled and said his plan to appease the hearts of his allies: "I will lead a few elite troops into the interior of the Midra Autonomous Region. The alchemy workshop is wreaking havoc—by the time they react, it's too late."

"Before that, the rebel mountain people will never know my plan. Their spies will only know that I will carry out a bandit suppression in winter, and wipe out all the defeated troops, robbers and bandits in the surrounding mountains, and lay a solid foundation for the coming year. Prepare for spring plowing."

   "They can't doubt the news."

   "Yes." Elder Man Ya nodded slightly: "What do I need to do?"

  Ian’s plan is so perfect, the reason why I mentioned it with him instead of acting alone, there must be something that needs his help.

   "Attract more rebellious Mountaineer forces to Frodo Dominion."

This is Ian's real purpose: "Elder Manya, next I will provide you with a batch of 'magnetic storm armor' as military support, and I need you to publicize this matter with great fanfare. At the same time, it also makes other people think that this is how I support Dragon Worship and you."

"at the same time."

   Speaking of this, Ian's expression became serious: "Elder, you want the enemy to capture a 'Magnetic Storm Armor'."

   "It's best to let the Pyrotechnics take them captive, but if that doesn't work, so do the others. Don't be too **** it, let them believe that this is the spoils they worked so hard to get."

"…I understand."

  Elder Manya understood, he already knew Ian's intentions.

  There must be related positioning devices in those magnetic storm armors, which can help Ian find the base of Flameland in the Baisen Mountains.

   At that time, the empire will definitely dispatch elite troops to cooperate with the king of the mountain to destroy it in one fell swoop!

  Although there must be related shielding technology on Feiyandi, Ian is so confident, why doesn't he believe it?

  Anyway, up to now, even if Ian told Elder Manya that he would be able to advance to the third energy level immediately, he would believe it 100%.

  At this moment, the old man smiled, but he was still a little puzzled: "But isn't the magnetic storm armor your unique technology? Just give it to the other party..."

   "That's 'special.' Don't let cronies drive."

  Ian shook his head. Although he would not take the magnetic storm technology too seriously, how could it be possible for him to give it to the other party for no reason?

Elder Manya is old and mature, he fully understands what the phrase 'special' means, so he stroked his beard with a smile: "I understand. Don't worry, I will let those 'people' and suspicious people on the list Those guys went to drive."

   "At that point, there won't even be a fight, they'll send the Zebra armor over there."

   "That would be the best." Ian laughed—there is no need to fight, so there will be no revealing, and the spoils sent by the spies will definitely be directly used for research.

   Exactly what he wanted most.

   After discussing the cooperation in the war, Ian asked some important news.

  For example, where did Elder Manya get the 'potion material' of the third level.

  —Is it a serious purchase, or is it left over from the ancestors?

  If it is a purchase, where is there a channel that is not concerned by the empire?

  If it is left over from the ancestors...do the mountain people have any third-level potion materials left?

  Even if it is expensive, Ian can spend money to buy it after Xiahuiling is on the right track.

   "The True Dragon Channel of the King of the Hill."

Elder Manya didn't ask why at all, he told Ian the answer directly: "This is also the reason why I joined the Dragon Worship Cult - one more identity is one more way, although there are a lot of troubles and troubles, but in general However, the identity of the Dragon Sect has brought me a lot of benefits."

"After Xiou is cured, the King of the Mountain will definitely take the initiative to search for the third-level potion ingredients for you...Of course, if it is a potion ingredient, it is also fine. Generally speaking, with the King of the Mountain, you don't have to worry about it. issues."

   "The real dragon can be rich." Elder Man Ya said meaningfully.

   "Then I'm relieved." Ian also chuckled softly.

  Although I feel a little soft, but considering that the king of the mountain can also be a majestic father, Ian doesn't care whether it is soft or hugging his thigh.

  —And, the channel of the real dragon?

   "In that case, the rare and precious material...maybe not so difficult to obtain."

  With the thought of a good harvest, Ian and Qing Chao embarked on the journey back to Xiahui.

  The conversation was divided into two ends, Ian was happy, but the Feiyan spies in Nanling suffered.

What? !

   Da Vinci's unprofessional painting made the insurance premium of "Mona Lisa" break the Guinness World Record?
