Chapter 377: Harvest! And... Post-war affairs are in progress!
The old cat said in a calm tone: "The [Deformation Ghost] has been suppressed for the time being, but the conch cannot leave the soul gem for a long time. Once she leaves, the octopus tentacles will riot again."
Lu Yuan wiped a cold sweat. That thing couldn't be killed by explosion or broken into pieces. It was really troublesome.
"Also, there is a layer of gray fog outside that has been entangled in our city. We can't get rid of it no matter what."
"The poppy tree... also suffered heavy losses. Most of its leaves were destroyed by thermal weapons. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that it was fake."
"I understand...Thank you, statisticians."
Although humanity is currently in a state of extreme grief, the living still have to continue living... and cheer up as quickly as possible.
Lu Yuan convened a high-level council meeting and told them about his current predicament.
Now more than half of the parliament members are missing, and many cadres and scholars have been injured in the battle or have suffered partial deformation and have to hibernate.
"Everyone has seen the current situation. We have suffered heavy losses in this disaster." Lu Yuan whispered, "But no matter what, we can't give up hope of survival."
"Especially regarding the rescue of the wounded..."
"Comrades, do you have any ideas to solve the current dilemma?"
Everyone was silent.
In fact, after a war, humans have gained a lot of hidden benefits, such as a large wave of heritage from the Nanyu civilization waiting to be received! The Nanyu civilization, plus that alien, should have some assets.
"Divine Skills" also gained a lot - these divine skills were stripped from the fishmen of the Nanyu civilization, a total of 413! These included common divine skills such as craftsman talent, glyph reading, super thinking, whisperer, etc., as well as rare combat abilities such as "shadow control" and "telekinesis".
This quantity is quite a lot, you can’t buy it even if you want to!
It can be said that if humans can resume normal operation, the number of talents will increase significantly! What's more, because of the demise of Nanyu civilization and the great fluctuation of luck, those empty spirit crystals are rapidly recharging! The magic cube-level energy is also recharging rapidly! It is estimated that in the next ten years, the spiritual charm that can be obtained will reach the level of 5,000 to 8,000!
There is also a high-tech flying saucer from a quantum civilization as a trophy... The technology inside... well, it's a bit advanced, but the limbs of a [Deformed Ghost] can also be considered a trophy.
But now everyone’s morale is really low and they simply don’t have the will to do these things.
What trophies, what spirit, how can it compare to the dead compatriots? More than a thousand dead.
There are still so many injured people, a full 200,000...
"Everyone, use your brains and think about it. Pessimists are always right, but only optimists can win the future." Lu Yuan knocked on the table.
After a long while, someone finally spoke out his true thoughts.
Lu Tiantian said: "What I mean is that our city should not move for the time being."
"What do you mean? Do you have any good ideas?" Lu Yuan said seriously.
Lu Tiantian said: "This mist is essentially a drop of blood from the [ghost], derived from it."
"The ghost's goal is to rescue the trapped main body. So the ghost fog will continue to surround the UFO."
"Our city moves slowly, and there's no way to get rid of this thing, so we might as well just stay still and let it surround us."
"Otherwise, if our city flees, the gray fog will pollute it and produce more deformed monsters. Then there will be another war."
"Now that the sea area has been cleared, it poses no threat."
Lu Yuan was silent. He actually didn't want to have another war.
The combat power of these monsters is indeed not high, otherwise the number of casualties would not be only one thousand.
However, once they destroyed the protective layer, soldiers below level 5 would also be deformed once they inhaled the mist, and most of the casualties were caused in this way. Now there were no living creatures in the sea, and the ghost fog could not create monsters.
"But how do we solve the ghost fog? Can't we handle this ghost fog?!" Jin Dongliang slammed the table with a "bang".
But this is the helplessness of this world. Perhaps many civilizations are slowly dying out in this helplessness.
"I think... there is still a way." Lu Tiantian said, "First, although [ghosts] are immortal, it does not mean that their power is infinite."
"This ghost fog may be slowly diluted by nature."
"Right now, only level 5 warriors can withstand it with their physical bodies. But as time goes by, the damage will continue to be diluted, and level 4, level 3, and even ordinary beings will be able to withstand it."
"Then we can leave calmly."
"But how long will that take?" Lu Yuan smiled bitterly.
Their meeting place now is in a small room near the sinkhole, sheltered by the Tree of Life.
The green light of the Tree of Life blocked the thick fog outside.
And this layer of fog outside seemed to have life, constantly wriggling, trying to contaminate everyone.
"So there is a second method, we build a large exhaust fan, filtering continuously."
"After gathering the power of the [ghost] again, seal it up. Of course... this is not something that an ordinary exhaust fan can do. There may be many technical barriers."
"I will be responsible for the development of large exhaust fans." Sha Mo, the head of the large engineering institute, said, "We will also maintain the nuclear power plant well."
"No, this is not the most important thing." Lu Tiantian shook his head. "It is still too dangerous to travel through the gray fog with a physical body. Even if you are wearing a rubber protective suit, if you are bitten by a small monster, the protective suit will be torn and you will be deformed... We can't take this risk."
"So my opinion is to open the highest level Green Paradise, upload the souls of us workers, and remotely control the Source Fire Puppet to do the work."
"Maintaining a nuclear power plant is not difficult. A puppet can do it."
The highest level of green paradise can accommodate self-awareness, which is equivalent to a prerequisite for the "Ascension Ceremony".
This function is very dangerous and consumes a lot of idealistic energy, so it has never been activated.
"But the poppy trees are dying, so how can we open the Green Paradise?"
"Isn't there still that great spiritualist?"
Lu Yuan thought about it and decided that the poppy tree must be restored.
Otherwise, without the green paradise, there will be no way to educate children in the future.
"Alright... that damn alien soul will help nourish the Poppy Tree."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He frowned. "After this, there is one more important thing. How do we rescue those deformed humans and the unconscious people who were invaded by the ant chips?"
This is a very difficult task.
The people attacked by the ant chips are not so bad. They are suspected to have brain damage and may be cured with Soul Infant Fruit, but the cost is too high. Even Lu Yuan's wealth does not allow him to have so many Soul Infant Fruits.
The Nanyu civilization also left behind a lot of biological knowledge that can be used as a reference. If we use purely physical methods, the cost can be reduced.
But it is really... difficult to save the distorted humans.
This means that one needs to fight against the rules of the [ghost]...
That was the strongest natural disaster in Pangu Continent, [Ghost]!
Whether current humans can conduct research successfully is a question.
Moreover, it is difficult to study idealistic phenomena with robots alone. You have to go on stage and observe with your naked eyes. If you don’t do it right, you will also distort yourself! “Let me do it.” Lu Tiantian suddenly said.
"I am a super thinker and I am also good at biological sciences. I will definitely be able to complete the mission. And I have also promised the soldiers that I will save them."
His voice was a little low, but firm.
"I love human civilization, and I am willing to give everything!"
…
…
Just like that, after a meeting, the 18 human civilizations that had suffered heavy losses had some clues about their future.
The soldiers drove the "Sky Fortress" to the coral island on the other side of the Nanyu civilization, swept a large area, and transported various supplies.
All the warships and submarines came over, and some cannons and missiles were also seized.
There is also the treasury of the Nanyu civilization, which contains some idealistic materials, with a preliminary estimate of about 2000 spiritual charms. Well, after all, the Nanyu civilization is not that kind of too strong civilization, so it is very good to be able to collect these materials.
However, when most people are hibernating, everyone is also listless when working.
No one used the things that were carried back, and no one could read the books that were found.
Even the one with the ability to translate has only one sober person.
What motivation do they have? Professors Sha Mo and Lu Tian Tian, who received their respective tasks, worked day and night without sleep.
After swallowing the soul of the great spiritual master, the poppy tree is recovering quickly.
Lu Yuan couldn't actually help with these things and felt depressed. Even his lovely sister became the guardian of the ghost and couldn't leave at all. This was too fucking unfair.
So one day, with nothing to do, he came to the center of the flying saucer, to the door of the room where the [ghost] was.
As long as he doesn't go in, the [Deformation Ghost] won't riot.
Once he entered, that guy would knock on the glass frantically, which would only increase Hai Luo's workload.
[You are here! ] The conch sent a telepathic voice, and the voice was as playful and pleasant as always.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but complain: "Ah, you've worked so hard. I always feel like this place has become a den of strange phenomena. There are two [monsters], two [devils], and now there are even two [ghosts]. We still need two [monsters] so we can play two mahjong tables."
Of course, according to the information of Shumiba civilization, the number of [monsters] is far less than other anomalies, so it would be very difficult to gather two.
"Really... I've been wondering, are our human 18 civilizations the first line in the fight against anomalies? What will this world become if we fall?" Lu Yuan chattered on and on while taking a sip of wine.
His broken left arm was slowly growing back, and the wound was itchy so badly that he could only drink some pomegranate wine to relieve his boredom.
