Chapter 419 Supercritical Diffraction Sword
"It doesn't look optimistic." Lin Xian said.
Chu Yan said: "The more we discover about supernatural powers, the more questions we have."
"for example?"
"For example, have you ever thought that a crystallized energy carrier inexplicably grows in the human body? Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" Ye Lan said slowly.
Lin Xian was stunned when he heard this. To be honest, he did have this question when he heard about this from Vanessa.
"Of course, we can't judge anything objectively. After all, under the changes of superpowers, people can already grow wings and tentacles, and can go up to the sky and into the ground. Growing a crystal is really nothing. However, in our many crystal growth experiments, many superpowers have experienced hallucinations."
"Vision?"
Ye Lan clicked a few times on the computer on the table, and then a lot of experimental logs appeared on the desktop. Lin Xian looked at them and soon his brows tightened.
The list of these psychics basically consists of people who have broken through the peak of 10,000 after crystallization, and they have indeed achieved the effect of doubling or even higher their peak power as Vanessa said. However, he also noticed the observation log under each character's information, where many people who have undergone crystallization have experienced strange hallucinations in a short period of time. The hallucinations reported are very similar to what Lin has seen through the corpse drivers after arriving in Dawn City. Some come from the night, some from the deep sea, and they are basically some abnormal scenes.
What’s even more strange is that some of them have very high peak superpowers, but they are... alienated.
"how so?"
"It's not clear yet." Ye Lan said, "First of all, there are certain risks in crystallization. The corruption toxins are very high when it is cultivated. Secondly, we are not clear about the changes and subsequent harms of this power based on itself. Before we master the technology of converting the same potential dark energy, the self-crystallization of the third-level blood essence will be very harmful. Moreover, once this power is used, it is like the dark mark bursting out in the dark night. You have to know that at that time, the discovery of the dark mark had just come out not long ago."
Lin Xian immediately understood why the Phoenix Society was cautious about this.
He thought about it and said, "But using this power is indeed a good way to deal with darkness."
"Yes, so I asked Chu Yan to give you a few fourth-level blood essences, which were obtained in Dawn City. However, regarding the cultivation, we are combining the dark energy isomorphism technology to reshape the plan. The research is still ongoing. If there are good results, I will let Chu Yan synchronize the drawings to you directly." Ye Lan said at this time.
"There is one more thing." Chu Yan looked at Lin Xian and said, "The crystallization technology came from the Holy City Organization. We have been investigating the cause, but you told us before that there are traces of the SIID Foundation in the No. 13 Xingyuan area..."
Lin Xian suddenly realized what was going on. No wonder Professor Ye had already guessed it.
"Lin Xian." Ye Lan's eyes changed slightly, and he said to him: "I told you that if the dark civilization really sets its sights on you, it won't be so smooth to take the ocean track, even if you have the Sky Train."
"I know."
Lin Xian said calmly: "There is no point for me to stay where I am or follow the Dawn Center. Taking the ocean track is the fastest way."
He smiled as he spoke, and looked at Chu Yan: "Speaking of which, we previously assumed that the Foundation was the adventist organization that the dark civilization actually communicated with on Blue Star. If this crystallization, including the Holy City organization, is related to this, then the fact that I was targeted means that our inference was correct. If the dark civilization wants to destroy me, then our deterrence is useful."
Chu Yan looked indifferent and said to Lin Xian: "Didn't I just ask you about the Nantianmen incident? If you consider this, do you think Nantianmen is still a threat to the dark civilization?"
Lin Xian's smile slowly froze on his face.
“That’s true…”
"Is there such a possibility?" Lin Xian took a deep breath and threw out his thoughts: "What if the information on the photovoltaic wing surface of Nantianmen is not from the dark civilization?"
When Ye Lan heard Chu Yan's story, he immediately looked in his direction and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Because I think this doesn't make sense. It doesn't sound like something a civilization that has wiped out 99% of humanity would say." Lin Xian said seriously, "You are not allowed to resist. Why are you not allowed to resist? What will happen if you resist? We are all about to be extinct. Is there any worse outcome than this?"
Ye Lan did not respond, but listened quietly to Lin Xian's thoughts.
"First, the Star Abyss was expanding according to the original 'plan', and humans were fleeing. From our observations, it was only after the Crimson World intervened that large-scale changes were discovered in Star Abysses 5, 7, and 8. It was only after Julius performed the S-level connection that the strange entities began to besiege Dawn City, and humans fought back."
"Under this premise, war is inevitable. There is no negotiation process between dark civilizations and us humans. Their dark tides are night to us, and our sunrises are also night to them. We are all in the dark forest. As long as we don't have the dark mark, we can enter a silent state. This is a game. Humans have gone from fleeing in panic at the beginning to gradually finding opportunities to survive. We are already in a process of change."
"So what does this sentence of not being allowed to resist mean? If it comes from a dark civilization, then it doesn't make any sense. Well, let's assume that this civilization is not so boring, or that it doesn't have the premise of communication logic that is difficult for us to understand. It really doesn't make sense."
Lin Xian continued to speak of his thoughts: "But if this message did not come from the dark civilization, this incident can be further investigated. I believe this must be a very important message. Why? First of all, this message was blocked by the giant sky curtain at the South Gate of Heaven. Does this mean that the two are not related? Well, assuming it is not from the dark civilization, then who is this message addressed to? I have been thinking about it these two days, there may be three possibilities..."
"First, what another civilization said to humans is very strange. I think the probability is very small. If it is true, it will mean an even more desperate disaster for us."
"Second, another civilization said to the dark civilization. This idea is very bold. Why do I say that? Because the communication message is through dark matter particles. Maybe the dark civilization can receive this message more easily than us, and we just happen to have the technology to decipher it. If so, then I think this message is likely to be the real deterrent to the dark civilization! Because I think that although our human civilization has been attacked by the dark civilization, the most abundant thing in the universe is civilization. There must be civilizations more advanced than the dark civilization. If you think so, then the dark civilization is likely to be prey. This can also explain why humans are still alive from the outbreak of Apocalypse Day to now. Because I think with the power of the dark civilization, if they have conducted research on human civilization, since it is a dimensionality reduction attack, we will not have the opportunity to resist or struggle, right?"
Chu Yan nodded when she heard this: "Yes, we have already discussed this. Professor Ye and other leaders have made such a judgment on this point."
Ye Lan said at this time: "We have discussed the three situations you just mentioned. In fact, in our opinion, the first situation is the simplest and can give us hope. It is meaningless and is the most meaningful. If it is the second or third situation, even if there is a higher-level civilization behind the dark civilization, it is just a mantis stalking a cicada while the oriole is waiting behind. We are still at the bottom of the food chain, aren't we?"
"No." Lin Xian said at this time: "The three situations I mentioned do not include the one initiated by the dark civilization."
"Oh?" Ye Lan frowned slightly and looked at Lin Xian: "Then what is the third type you mentioned?"
Chu Yan also looked puzzled and turned to look at him.
Lin Xian smiled and said casually: "The third situation I mentioned is that there is indeed another civilization, and this message is indeed addressed to humans, but this message is not malicious, but well-intentioned. Do you think this is possible?"
Chu Yan frowned when she heard this: "Are you saying that telling us not to resist is saving us?"
Lin Xian looked at Ye Lan's expression opposite him and felt that this idea was a bit outrageous. He immediately spread his hands and said, "Okay, it's really too much..."
"It's also worth referring to." Ye Lan responded: "We are currently trying our best to communicate with the South Heaven Gate, trying to obtain more information about this dark matter particle. Lin Xian, thanks to your plan, otherwise we would not have a way to transmit information across the sky curtain."
Lin Xian shrugged: "Okay, I have to investigate Hai Yan's situation now, so I won't tell you any more..."
"Lin Xian." Chu Yan called him: "How are you doing now?"
"It's calm now, but tonight shouldn't be very good." The Holy City, the Galan Volcano, the floating island on the sea, the strange body underwater, Lin Xian simply described what he had encountered during the two days at sea.
Chu Yan looked at Lin Xian and said, "You are not far from the shore now. If you are in danger, you can use the Sky Train to fly back to the land."
"Let's see. This Holy City Organization is likely related to the Foundation. If their target is me, then to some extent, the Sword Wielder's plan is half successful." Lin Xian said.
Ye Lan said slowly: "According to what you said, you may not be able to find the connection so quickly. The people from the foundation haven't shown up yet, so you'd better keep this plan in mind."
"Understood, Professor Ye."
Lin Xian nodded, then gestured to Chu Yan, and took the initiative to disconnect the consciousness link and return to the Black Star Forge.
Just when he came back, the light screen in front of him suddenly flashed, and the damaged hull of the Dreadnought-class ship that he had placed in the Black Star Forge and devoured using the automatic sequence was now completely devoured by him.
[Dreadnought-class starship completes engulfment]
[Swallowed successfully, mechanical source points +15500, mechanical swallowing proficiency +1800]
"A damaged version of the Dreadnought gained 15,500 points. If it was a brand new one, it would probably be over 20,000 points. If I use three of them to devour me, wouldn't that mean I can directly upgrade to level 7 of the Mechanical Heart?!"
[Current Mechanical Heart Level LV.6 (22220/50000)]
【Mechanical Awakening】: Mechanical Lord
Mechanical Devouring: 6 (2900/5000) Increases devouring efficiency
Mechanical Manufacturing: 6 (1560/5000) Improves construction efficiency
Looking at the mechanical source points that had skyrocketed in just two days, Lin Xian looked excited. This was why he had to rush to the Pole. In fact, if many of the crashed aircraft in Dawn City had not been reduced to scrap metal, Lin Xian would definitely have spent time helping Dawn City complete more of the 'cleanup' work. It took him a lot of effort to get this battle-damaged dreadnought-class aircraft, and it also took him a lot of effort to take it away. Now it can be said that his hard work has paid off.
Just when Lin Xian was thinking about how to get a few more starships for swallowing, he suddenly noticed that there was another light curtain behind the light curtain of successful swallowing. He immediately moved the information in front of him away. At this time, a golden message appeared in front of him!
[Congratulations on obtaining the skill: Supercritical Diffraction Sword! ]
"Fuck the grass!"
Lin Xian's pupils shrank suddenly, and the light screen in front of him emitted a bright golden color. Not only did he finally acquire a new skill, but this skill was actually legendary!
On the same level as your own gravitational lens!
[Supercritical Diffraction Sword: Guide the supercritical confinement ray with one hand and release the high-energy diffraction sword! ]
"Confinement ray?" Lin Xian looked at his fingers and murmured, "No way, holding a space-based weapon?"
Lin Xian couldn't understand why the Dreadnought-class battleship, which only had an orbital starshaker, obtained the constraint ray after swallowing it. This thing was the technology of Nan Tianmen and Hyperion's directional constraint cannon. He was increasingly unable to understand the extended logic of the Mechanical Heart.
"Forget it... Let's give it a try. This skill is of legendary level and it must consume the same amount of mana as Gravitational Lens."
Lin collected his thoughts and felt that KIKI in reality was calling him. When he left the Black Star Forge, he took another look at the metal dice. This time he was not mistaken.
The metal dice changed direction again, and this time the number became
1
On the hillside of the west coast, Lin Xian had just come back to his senses from the Black Star Forge's consciousness space when he heard KIKI calling him from the side.
"Lin Xian, a thunderstorm is coming!"
Wow, boom!
The originally clear island was now windy with strong winds, the grass and trees were swaying, the light around was dimmed, and the sea breeze suddenly became sticky, carrying the smell of salt and rusty metal.
The sky in the distance began to distort, and the clouds seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, quickly turning from gray to lead gray, and then settling into a morbid purple-black color. In the sea behind, the waves no longer followed the rhythm of nature, but seemed to be pulled by some force, forming irregular jagged crests, and when they hit the rocks, they made a crisp sound similar to breaking bones.
"Something's wrong." The picture sent back by KIKI's drone suddenly shook violently. She stared at the screen and frowned: "This storm came so quickly, and the change in air pressure is too abnormal..."
Before he finished speaking, all electronic devices burst into harsh noises at the same time, and Lin Xian's powered Geiger counter beeped wildly, and the pointer directly hit the radiation alarm threshold.
"Does the storm have radiation?" Lin Xian immediately stood up, looked at the sky full of thunder and lightning, his face darkened.
"Put on the mask quickly." KIKI immediately asked Shasha to close the power armor mask, and then said to Lin Xian: "Lin Xian, do we still need to go into the city to investigate?"
"No!"
Lin Xian quickly pressed the communicator: "Monica, Qian Dele, Sister Ning, all teams, come back, before the storm!"
“Ka-ka…”
At this moment, only noise came from the communicator.
"Oh no! There's something wrong with the signal!" KIKI said anxiously.
"Let's retreat first!" Lin Xian looked back at the dark and turbulent sea behind him and said in a deep voice.
"Something... is coming!"
