Mission Rewards: Success will grant you a new realm; failure will also grant you a warning.
Note: For planets without intelligent life, the seeds of spiritual assimilation need to be planted in person; for planets with intelligent life, the seeds of spiritual assimilation require the collective prayers of at least 10,000 intelligent beings from this world.
This task didn't come out of the blue; at least Wu You had been mentally prepared for it.
There's definitely a reason why permissions are granted out of the blue.
At the same time, the term "new realm" caught Wu You's attention.
The system doesn't seem to really like referring to planets as realms, since the concept of planets is mentioned in the prompts. Could it be understood that only those who have planted the seed of spiritual assimilation are considered to be recognized "realms"?
Moreover, the term "spiritual assimilation seed" sounds somewhat familiar.
Wu You suddenly remembered that when his authority in the Eastern Realm was upgraded to Silver level, the system had notified him that he was one step closer to assimilation.
So this "assimilation" and that "assimilation" must be pretty much the same thing, right?
I remember the mission I had before entering the Eastern Realm for the first time was called "Four Realms".
Does this mean that you need to capture a total of four realms, or does it mean that the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain already has four realms, and this planet is a new realm?
While pondering these possible connections, Wu You's Observer Space Eye was also constantly scanning the city where his gaze was currently fixed.
If Wu You weren't in the observer's perspective, he probably would have made a huge fuss too.
Although the aliens on this planet are much smaller than humans and have long tails, they are still humanoid in general.
At the scene, several fleeing aliens were seen being tackled by alien zombies that jumped down from the roadside wall, and then surrounded by more agile alien zombies.
Then come screams, the sound of flesh being torn apart, and the cracking of bones; within seconds, the victim's cries will cease.
And this is just one corner of the city; similar or even more tragic things are happening elsewhere.
These alien zombies aren't the slow-moving kind you see in human movies.
Their mobility is stronger than that of a normal, healthy alien, not to mention they can climb walls, so hiding in a high place is useless.
Clearly, this planet has been invaded by aberrant organisms, but the method of invasion is different from what Wu You has encountered before.
This time, something similar to an infectious virus has arrived.
What if this kind of aberrant invasion occurred in the Eastern Realm, or even worse, on Earth?
He was confident he could keep a large area safe, but what about the others?
Even in places that can be protected, there still needs to be a reaction time; this kind of attack is truly the most disgusting.
Wu You almost dared not think any further.
Fortunately, this planet was the first to suffer, so at least we can learn some experience.
The saying "It's better to die than to die" is not only an internet slang term, but also a very common situation in reality.
However, the prerequisite for accumulating experience is to complete this task and successfully plant the seeds of mental assimilation.
Only then would Wu You have the ability to interfere with the fate of this world.
Otherwise, one can only be an observer and watch from the sidelines.
Wu You also wanted to try to establish mental contact with normal aliens.
It's a pity.
It wasn't that he couldn't establish a mental connection with the aliens here, but rather that he couldn't find a suitable target for the time being.
These aliens are usually in a state of frantic escape, and the combination of fear and frantic flight often means they don't live long.
So far, no alien in sight has survived for more than twenty minutes under Wu You's observation.
This was the result of Wu You's psychological suggestion, such as making them understand that going out the next corner would lead to a dead end.
Even so, the aliens that Wu You had his eye on continued to die one after another.
What Wu You found infuriating was that there were no police or military forces on this planet, and no decent weapons among civilians.
The best I saw were a few spears made by attaching fruit knives to sticks.
Being surrounded by a large number of zombies while carrying this thing is basically suicide.
My gaze wandered around the city for two or three hours, and the sun was slowly setting.
These alien zombies, or rather, low-end alien versions of Lickers, have keen hearing, are agile, ignore many obstacles and terrains, and have a good sense of smell when they get close enough.
This is how many living aliens have been found.
Judging from this situation, reaching a base of 10,000 is really difficult; I don't even have a single living person among them.
One by one, the sources of life force were extinguished in his perception, and Wu You was beginning to lose interest in tracing their origins.
Anyway, the result is always the same.
But as the life force gradually diminished, one of the slightly stronger auras slowly became apparent.
The location is below the city.
Wu You's observer's gaze immediately followed and moved downwards.
The sewers? Clever!
...
Garma had eaten before escaping into the sewers, so she wasn't very hungry, but she was extremely thirsty.
The combination of continuous tension and sweating led to severe dehydration.
The screams from above started off dense but then became sparse, and now they only occasionally ring out.
Garma didn't know what was happening outside, how many Azure People were still alive, or what he should do. He wondered if he could escape under the cover of darkness and get out of the city.
Perhaps other cities are fine, or perhaps the wilderness and forests are better.
"No, the world is already on the verge of collapse; there's no point in fleeing!"
A hollow voice, indistinguishable in gender, suddenly resounded in Garma's mind, almost causing him to cry out in surprise.
Garma looked around and then looked up. There were no monsters or blue people.
He didn't know if what he had just experienced was a hallucination.
“Child! This is not an illusion; it is me speaking to you, communicating with you through my heart.”
When the voice rang out again, Garma was certain that she was not hallucinating, and her emotions became extremely agitated.
"You are Kunkala! You are the great Kunkala!"
From the alien's intense emotions and current thoughts, Wu You realized that he had guessed correctly.
There are similar religious beliefs on this planet, and regardless of which god it is, it is never wrong to call believers or subjects "children".
Wu You doesn't speak the alien language, but his consciousness communication can be directly translated into understandable meanings and information in the aliens' minds.
Garma is usually an atheist, but the Mother of the World, Kunkala, is the mainstream belief of the Azure People, so how could he not know this after being exposed to it so often?
Legend has it that when the world is on the verge of collapse, Mother Kunkala will return to save her children.
"Did the Azure People make some mistake? Is this divine punishment outside? Is it the end of the world?"
"Mother Kunkala, have you come to save us?"
Mother? Wu You felt that his body, far away on Earth, must have twitched at the corner of his mouth.
They sensed that the alien was overly agitated. If it shouted out loud and attracted alien zombies outside, all their efforts would be wasted.
