Chapter 114 The War of Civilizations 14

Lin Xia glanced at the chaos around her, turned and left, deciding to find a safe place first before considering the problem.

Chaos was everywhere, and some people took the opportunity to cause trouble. The admonitions that floated over the entire city continued. The voice was clear and firm, which gradually calmed Lin Xia's thoughts.

In just a short while, the mech that had been killing insanely found a worthy opponent and was killed, and the person who had been frantically killing the mental warrior was also brought under control.

The panicked and fearful people were gradually calmed down. Some went home, while others were arrested and imprisoned. Lin Xia left the city before the lockdown and climbed a high mountain.

Looking down at the city, which was gradually returning to its peaceful and tranquil state, she pondered. Modifying the sea of ​​consciousness was probably more difficult and unpredictable than she had imagined, and it wouldn't affect all of humanity.

She gradually relaxed, realizing that she had been oversimplifying things.

Thinking back to what she saw in that first glance, so much of what has happened since the birth of humankind was contained within it.

So, could she interpret this as the sea of ​​consciousness existing since the beginning of humankind, arising alongside humanity, or rather, intelligent beings?

It records the development and changes in human thought, all the major events that have affected humanity, and countless minor events.

There is no light or darkness there, only the collision of various thoughts. There you can see any emotion or thought that humans can have, regardless of right or wrong, or opposition.

Throughout history, there have been thinkers who have had a profound impact on the thinking of all mankind, such as Confucius, Mencius, Lao Tzu, Zhuangzi, Han Feizi, Mozi, and Guiguzi in ancient times, as well as many people in modern times who have had a profound impact on mankind, such as Chairman Mao, Lu Xun, Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao, Sun Yat-sen, and so on.

These people are all individuals who have original insights into objective reality and have developed their own systems, and who have had a profound impact on human society.

Only in this way can the cognition of certain groups of people be gradually influenced in their consciousness.

Human understanding has always been inconsistent and varied.

However, if it is a war of civilizations, then the enemy of all humanity on the planet is the same. Lin Xia believes that this kind of alteration of consciousness and confusion of cognition cannot last.

Then she lowered her eyes again. Just because it can't last long doesn't mean it can't destroy a civilization within this timeframe.

Having figured all this out, Lin Xia became determined to use the tool [Spy]. The opportunity was rare, and she had a way to save her life, so why hesitate?

boom--

Lin Xia's ears went deaf with a 'buzz,' as she watched a mushroom cloud rise from the city center.

She thought that if her world were to be destroyed so inexplicably, and she were the only one who knew the truth, she would go insane too.

Lin Xia turned and left, speeding deeper into the mountains. The mountains here were indeed high and the forests were dense, and the forest was somewhat chaotic because of the commotion earlier.

She found a natural underground cave, cleaned it up, and then exchanged for the item [Isolation] to envelop the area.

Using the item [Isolation] was not only for her own protection, but also because she feared triggering a relentless pursuit of her own world. Since the survival system dared to place her in this world and even gave her these items, it must mean that the problems in this world are within its control... right?

Lin Xia began practicing the 'Spark Body Tempering Technique'. For her, the more her mental strength could improve, the more hope she had of living. She really didn't want to experience death.

On the eighth and ninth days, Lin Xia continued to train. Even though she was so far away, she could still hear some of the sounds of the city's gunfire.

On the tenth day at noon, Lin Xia adjusted her state, put on a medium-level protective shield, and took out the item [Spy].

use!

Her mental strength began to rise, and her vision continued to expand until she saw a cylindrical spaceship.

Lin Xia suddenly turned around and looked behind him. It was a planet in the game world. This distance was just outside the port, outside all the shipping routes, and he could observe it almost up close.

Her mental energy passed through numerous barriers and reached the interior of the ship, where there were several aliens. Their bodies were similar to humans, but they were taller, more symmetrical, and their limbs were more harmonious. Lin Xia observed them.

More human than a human... This metaphor is a bit strange, but that's how she felt.

Each person was busy checking the changes on their respective screens, their mental energy dancing harmoniously in the space.

Lin Xia felt like a grain of sand, swaying helplessly before these spiritual energy lines.

"Nine years have passed. There's no need to observe their war anymore. The evolution of mental power is too difficult. Over the past 50 years, under various stimuli, only one person has become a mental power user. There's no need to waste any more time."

"That's right. A world that has already developed mental power, which should at least be considered a second-class civilization, can't even find a way to break through to become a mental power user. Useless."

"I second that the 'Collective Unconscious Sea Intervention Project' should be launched; I am more interested in this project."

"That's right, opening the passage is not easy. Let's move on to the next research project."

"Mental power users are rare to begin with; once the channel is opened, they become useless."

"Capturing an intelligent planet is not easy, let alone an intelligent planet that has already developed mental power."

Just then, the machine made a sound.

“Psychic No. 0 is dead.”

Upon hearing the sound, everyone stopped arguing.

"Capture of spiritual energy; residual spiritual energy successfully captured."

"Initiate the 'Collective Unconscious Sea Intervention Project'."

"Instrument calibration successful."

"Information entered successfully."

"Intervention process recording begins."

"Cognitive impact level: 60%"

"The impact of cognition is decreasing."

"Increase efforts."

"Warning: Unknown psychic intruder has entered the area."

"Capture".

Even though Lin Xia had retreated quickly enough, she was instantly captured by an invisible net, and her mental power was annihilated the moment she was touched by the net.

"The invading mental force was too weak and is dead."

In a daze, Lin Xia heard those words and then knew nothing more.

In her daze, Lin Xia lost consciousness. Death, it turned out, was so peaceful, so insignificant.

There was no dramatic pursuit, no evenly matched battle, and none of the pain and panic she had imagined.

It's like dust that's swept aside by someone walking by; nobody notices it.

Throughout the entire argument, those people maintained a calm and even composed tone, as if they didn't care at all.

Lin Xia opened her eyes, feeling the throbbing pain in her head, and lay there calmly.

It turns out that their fear, resentment, dread, and cries are as insignificant as ants in the eyes of advanced civilization.

She thought about the game worlds she had experienced, and it seemed as if an invisible hand was guiding her to discover the truth of the world.

Was He doing this out of kindness, conducting an experiment, or just playing a game?
