Chapter 693 This is the High Demon
"Higher Demon?"
Wen Xi tilted his head with confusion on his face.
"Is it a higher-level existence than the devil?"
"In terms of the nature of life, no." Jack shook his head, "But in terms of civilization, yes, we are more advanced."
"Civilized?" Wen Xi was a little confused.
According to her knowledge, the so-called high-level demons should be nobles and more powerful figures among demons.
Just like all kinds of powerful people in human beings.
Heaven is nobler.
So, what is a more advanced civilization?
"Your world has a good civilization." Jack did not answer directly, but talked about other things, "I saw that you have cars, lights, telephones, and power stations."
"Yes, we also have ships made of steel and airships that can fly in the sky!" Wen Xi was quite proud when he said this. "Because of the existence of ships, we have discovered that the ground we stand on The earth is a huge sphere. This is Gaia!"
In response to Wen Xi's response, Jack did not answer. Instead, he talked about something else: "In your mythology, aren't demons all good at beguiling people's hearts, tempting humans to fall, and doing all kinds of incredible things? For example, blood sacrifices, such as opening silver Lie down. This kind of devil usually doesn’t succeed. If it does happen occasionally, it will just cause a large-scale war, destroy a large number of cities, and turn the earth into a scorched earth. Is that so?”
"Yes." Wen Xi nodded lightly. What Jack is talking about is indeed the most common image of the devil in various mythological stories.
For example, they can seduce pure priests, make them corrupt, carry out various evil activities, confuse people's hearts, gather a large number of believers, and perform evil rituals.
Blood sacrifice, silver party, etc., that's basically a routine operation.
When the heat is almost up, they will start a war and prepare to replace the existing regime.
When the war began to burn, countless people died, and cities fell one after another.
Human lives were easily consumed in the battle, like grass and mustard.
And those who die will eventually become powerful nutrients for the devil.
Of course, by the end of the story, these demons will be destroyed.
Their followers will basically be eliminated, with only one or two lucky escapees lurking down, waiting for the next opportunity.
This is the classic plot in fairy tales.
To be honest, Wen Xi was a little confused and didn't know what Jack's intention was in bringing up some irrelevant things at this moment.
"Okay, now you have a very clear idea of ordinary demons."
Jack didn't mean to show off and began to explain.
"Now, let me tell you what kind of existence a high-level demon is."
Wenxi's eyes widened, she looked at Jack seriously and listened carefully.
"The so-called advanced demons are beings with highly developed civilizations and mastered advanced technology. In your eyes, it's enough that humans have ships that can cross the ocean, airships that can sail in the sky, and cars that can easily travel between two places. amazing.
But in our eyes, your level of civilization is no different from that of insects. You can neither fly out of your home star, nor extract energy from stars, nor can you move across countless galaxies regardless of distance.
If we want to turn this planet into purgatory, all we need to do is dispatch a battleship and press a button.
Can you imagine? On a planet like Gaia that looks like a place full of birds and flowers, all the countries on it combined are not even a match for a mining ship.
In front of the mining ship, this planet has one and only one end, and that is to be crushed and turned into a mine. "
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Wenxi was stunned by the scene described by Jack's words.
Their civilization is so advanced, but they can't even go to the moon, and what Jack mentioned is even more impossible.
"What's impossible?" The corner of Jack's mouth raised slightly. He found Wen Xi's performance quite interesting, "Higher devil, why are you so high? Don't you really understand?"
"impossible……"
“Ordinary demons also have to find ways to trick other creatures into doing things for them, thereby obtaining various benefits.
And we always get what we want by ourselves, without inciting insects and letting them jump up and down, just for some unnecessary things. "
Jack clapped his hands and completed the arrangement of the last barrier.
After finishing, take a closer look.
Very good, very perfect, worthy of his work.
"For us, the existence of insects can only regulate the body and mind." Jack turned to look at Wen Xi, "I think you should be able to understand what I mean."
Wen Xi was stunned when he heard this.
If you think about it carefully, Jack does have various mission assignments for them.
For example, the Enke brothers guard the door, Levina washes clothes and cooks, and she captures the living dead.
These tasks seem important, but are they really necessary and irreplaceable?
no.
These tasks are not mandatory, nor are they a must-have for this group of people.
Just look at Jack's work.
He can complete the setting of the barrier by himself.
If necessary, he could also capture the living dead himself.
It can be said that neither the Enke brothers nor Levina are indispensable.
Rather than saying that they were useful, it was better to say that Jack just wanted to have someone by his side to chat with.
and also……
The body that Wenxi is currently using.
"Oh?" Jack raised his eyebrows slightly, "It seems you understand where your greater role lies."
Wen Xi is a synthetic human.
Jack was not sure that he would be able to suppress various wizard geniuses.
But if we can’t suppress the genius of wizards, will we not be able to handle synthetic humans?
To take a step back, wouldn't it be okay to build some basic robots?
Does the empire not have any supporting technology at all?
Of course not.
Jack just didn't think it was necessary.
Even if he could attack the entire Golden Flower Empire and even the entire Gaia planet, so what?
The dilemma he needs to face is how to devour the world and ascend to another dimension.
During this process, some unexpected difficulties may arise.
These difficulties cannot be solved by low-level machines with no brains.
He needs many super geniuses to assist him.
To suppress a large number of geniuses requires strong enough force. This is the fundamental reason why he repeatedly emphasizes the need to become stronger.
Of course, the reason why he doesn't do this is because he has recently swallowed some living dead and his strength has increased, so he has such ability.
Before that, there was not enough power.
But, there is no need to explain these to Wen Xi in detail.
"So, this is the High Demon."
He just concluded lightly.
