Chapter 363 Shameless Professor Xiao Wang
Someone else said, "Can you capture one? It would be great if you can capture one and bring it back for research. If not, then we can just consider this mission a failure. It's not a big deal!"
What is mentioned here is actually the so-called "evil soul".
Although souls do exist in the Guixu Realm, their existence forms are varied. Evil ghosts such as evil spirits and ghosts are one type, Yin corpses and zombies are another type, and soul shadows formed by obsession are another type. In addition, there are many other forms of existence that cannot be simply classified. Some can wander in the Guixu Realm, while others are attracted to the Jiuyou Realm through the Jiuyou Channel.
The name "evil soul" was actually casually given by Yinglong King. Because at first, these soul shadows were the obsessions of some people who did no harm to people, attached to the souls detained in the rift, without independent consciousness, and without any self-mind. Until the dragon soul that suppressed the rift was taken away by Yinglong King, the entire suppressed huge sin created by the Sword Sect was materialized - the monstrous hatred brought by countless blood sacrifices, combined with the obsession of the souls detained in the rift for many years, gave birth to this rare thing.
They exist mainly in the form of souls, more like ghosts, but the pollution they bring with them and the sins of blood sacrifice make them "infect" other living beings like a virus.
Just like those "soul eaters" that have been wreaking havoc in Liuzhou, they are the fish that have escaped the net - some souls that have not been captured have been wandering for a long time, nourishing themselves in the harsh environment of Liuzhou, and finally attached themselves to the dead, thus forming monsters.
They carry the sins of the blood sacrifice and can naturally "infect" other people. The more people who are infected and die, the larger their group will become, unless they are burned out - but this strategy of burning is something that Liuzhou people have only figured out a few years ago. Over the past few hundred years, the number of soul-eaters that have bred is simply innumerable, and it is also one of the main causes of the disasters in Liuzhou.
Of course, there are power struggles within Guanliuzhou behind this, which is difficult to summarize simply.
Although the formation of these things is related to "people", they are not actually people, so when people talk about "catching one to study", there is no psychological burden at all.
but……
Everyone has a good idea, but it is actually very difficult to do.
"I'm afraid it's difficult. Although we can see that those things seem to have physical form, they are still difficult to carry, let alone bring back to Zhongzhou. We can only study them nearby, but the problem is that we only have one person left!"
"What if we ask for help from the locals? Didn't Xiao Song say before that Liuzhou and his friends encountered a human settlement in the form of a tribal civilization? I remember the name seemed to be something like 'Hu Bu Yu Shi'!"
"Why would they agree? Unless we use supplies to negotiate, but the problem is that most of the supplies we brought have been lost! That little rabbit probably doesn't have much left! How much can those Qiankun bags hold!"
"Then we can only wait!"
Aunt Wang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "Our partner has always had a clear purpose in doing things. We discussed this in our meeting yesterday. Liuzhou has a very special geographical location. Compared with its strategic value, its resource value is secondary.
"Therefore, the next step in the development of Taiyin Sect will inevitably shift part of its focus to Liuzhou. Everyone, don't forget the original expansion pack. I personally don't think the background described in the expansion pack is completely fabricated, otherwise α would not have seized the opportunity to destroy Ziwei Sect in one fell swoop.
"Liuzhou is the northernmost land among the ten continents and three islands. To the west is the sparsely populated Dahuangzhou and the neutral Kunlun Hill. So, it is almost conceivable that Tianyingzhou between Liuzhou and Zhongzhou is her next target! After that, it will be Penglai Island further east!"
Everyone nodded frequently after hearing Aunt Wang's analysis.
Indeed, if they didn't really have any ideas about Liuzhou, no one would pay so much attention to this matter. After all, whether it was the tasks assigned to those players by the "game" or the various vague guidance, all of them revealed Fang Xianyu's ambition nakedly.
but……
"Sister Wang, didn't we just say in our last meeting that we would vigorously develop Rongyu Mountain, build a special economic development zone centered on Rongyu City, and help build towns radiating from the Rongyu Mountain range one by one, improve the living standards and medical security of local people, and solve the local basic education problems? Why are we moving our base to Liuzhou before we even start planning?"
Wang Qiqing's voice rang out loudly in the small conference room, and his pronunciation was extremely clear, comparable to that of a broadcaster and host - this guy was 100% intentional!
"Rongyu Mountain is about basic livelihood construction," Aunt Wang was both angry and amused by Wang Qiqing's behavior. She patiently explained, "Liuzhou should be about military force construction. Otherwise, if they confront Piaomiao Xianzong and Penglai Sect in the future, there will definitely be heavy casualties here."
"Yes! You are right! You are absolutely right!"
Unexpectedly, after hearing Aunt Wang's words, Wang Qiqing clapped his hands excitedly, then raised his voice and volunteered: "So I think we must set up a few more project research departments in Liuzhou! Especially for this anti-gravity research! I have a ready-made team in the Spiritual Qi Research Institute in Chang'an City, and I can move directly to Liuzhou to start working! As long as the organization approves some more manpower for me, it won't be long before I can break through the key to anti-gravity technology! Then I can give back to our flower-growing family!"
Originally, the group of people had not reacted to why Professor Xiao Wang suddenly spoke up. When his true intention was revealed, they suddenly realized what was going on. They secretly spat at him and called him shameless. Then, they started to quarrel one after another.
"Professor Xiao Wang is right! Our communication research is also very important! In the future military exchanges, communication methods will definitely be indispensable, right?"
"That's right! Isn't Liuzhou surrounded by the sea? It's a good place to study tidal energy! New energy research is a big deal! It's a top priority! It's a top priority that benefits the country and the people!"
"You're just talking nonsense. The sea over there is about to freeze over. How can you do research? And I don't even want to talk about your projects. You can fool your brothers, but don't fool yourself! Our direction of materials engineering application is more important!"
"Bah! Aren't you just upset that I voted for metal materials last time and didn't vote for you? You are so stingy! Your research direction is not as practical as others' metal materials! Which of your research can be separated from modern tools? The Guixu Realm hasn't even developed a computer yet, so you wasted your spot in the past!"
"How dare you say that! If it weren't for you, I would have gotten it!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Your vote count is far off!"
