Chapter 379 Thirty-nine Years Later
Lu Yuan listened for a while and sighed: "I understand... Since he is so determined, we can only try our best."
"I agree to let him go to Coral Island to conduct experiments. But it must be carried out in an intercontinental missile, and I will let the military monitor it at all times."
Lu Linshu swallowed his saliva and said, "Commander-in-chief... I mean, I want to participate, too. This is a difficult task, and without my knowledge, it will be difficult for him to succeed."
"Besides, this will take a very long time, a really long time..."
"It's really... I'm sorry to trouble you."
Lu Linshu hung up the phone, his eyes full of determination.
You, Lu Tiantian, are not the only one willing to make sacrifices!
He thought of his family and his close friends.
"Pengzi, Ranmei...I will make you better."
…
Six years after the war, the biological laboratory on Coral Island was officially established.
There was no grand opening ceremony or excitement, but it brought together almost all the biological experts from 18 civilizations of mankind! It was built on a large intercontinental missile and was monitored by the military at all times.
A total of 12 well-known professors conducted long-term experiments in the missile.
In addition, there is a team of more than 100 bioanalysis professors in Green City, providing data and industrial support.
"I declare... the High-risk Biological Laboratory has been officially established. This is our most important plan going forward."
Lu Yuan said loudly: "These 12 professors can mobilize almost all resources. Including the resources produced by the Zerg Legion."
"But the price is... once the [Vampire] crisis breaks out, we can only launch an intercontinental ballistic missile to send the danger away..."
"Let us bless these warriors and wish them the day of victory."
…
Next, because the city was still surrounded by ghost fog, humans had nothing special to do except fighting against distortion.
Those who should be on duty should be on duty, and those who should sleep should sleep.
Lu Yuan has a long lifespan, and the damage caused by the ghost fog is not great, so there is no need for him to hibernate.
He also had nothing to do, so he used the "extreme concentration" feature of the soul crystal to study the knowledge of glyphs.
What is "The Great Gear Encyclopedia"? It really requires a huge amount of research time!
Now that all humans are asleep and there are no distractions, he can focus on his research.
Just leave some small things to the old cat.
By the way, I can also take advantage of some of the idealistic energy collected by the conch girl so that I can quickly upgrade to 30 points of godliness.
…
Time passes really quickly.
It was not until the eighth year that the Green Paradise of the Poppy Tree was finally officially connected to the Soul Gem that suppressed the [ghosts], which meant that Miss Conch could temporarily escape.
However, after some discussion, Lu Yuan refused to wake up more staff members.
As long as the ghost fog is not eliminated, there will always be a risk of distortion in daily life.
Therefore, the entire suppression work will continue to be carried out by Ms. Conch.
…
In the tenth year, Lu Yuan risked his life to board the spaceship of the Dalai Empire and negotiated with the Mirror [Demon]. The final result was... in vain.
It’s not that the Mirror [Magic] can’t provide a method, but its asking price is too high…
The ghost fog caused by a mere "alien" from ancient times has caused such heavy casualties to mankind.
Lu Yuan really didn't want to take greater risks and endure the malice of the mirror demon.
He would rather stay here and wait until the day when the ghost fog is sucked away by the exhaust fan.
…
The eighteenth year, a neutral news that is neither good nor bad.
The "Chaos Essence Stone" nurtured by the Tree of Life finally consumed the "Life Essence" left by the Little Mirage Dragon! With this huge investment, the "Chaos Essence Stone" underwent a subtle transformation.
Half of it was fiery red, emitting the terrifying high temperature of magma; the other half had a faint green light and a subtle breath of life.
Its surface even grew complex patterns similar to the "Fruit of Life".
It is close to maturity and can accommodate a soul and shape a brand new body.
The dream of “I don’t want to be a human being” can be realized soon.
But for some reason, Lu Yuan always felt that... even if this thing could really be used for reincarnation, the final result would be that the racial value would be slightly higher than that of humans, but it would still not reach the true mythical level.
Yes, even after investing so much, there is still something missing.
After experiencing this magnificent war, Lu Yuan formed a concept: "If we can't defeat the [ghost], it's all in vain. It will only be meaningful if we can at least resist it for a period of time, or suppress it."
Otherwise, it would be better to cultivate the tree of life.
But as for the Tree of Life, well, it’s not that we won’t cultivate it…but its attack power is still too weak.
As a [demon] with life attributes, it is not suitable for fighting in terms of rules. It can only rely on brute force to fight, but brute force is really difficult to suppress a [ghost], even the lowest level [ghost].
Lu Yuan looked up the "Great Gear Encyclopedia" and thought that this "Chaos Essence Stone" was still lacking a very strange substance - "Spirit".
The energy and life energy coming from the earth veins can coexist harmoniously but cannot be perfectly integrated.
But what exactly is the so-called "Shen Yun"?
…
In the thirty-second year, with the help of immortal equipment and soul gems, Lu Yuan finally reached 30 points of divine attributes and became a great spiritual master.
Well, this is also a small achievement for him on a personal level.
However, I didn't feel anything too much, except that my eyes and ears were a little clearer, my brain was a little smarter, and my mental strength was slightly higher.
It doesn't seem to have much impact on combat power?
The value of "God" grows exponentially, but its combat power seems to grow linearly. What a pitfall!
Moreover, Lu Yuan clearly felt his bottleneck. He had so many adventures, plus the blessing of immortal equipment, his upper limit might be 31-32 points of god.
So he deliberately slowed down his progress to avoid his soul being saturated.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"I really don't understand, how strong was your adventure back then? You actually reached the limit of 36 points, I don't accept it!"
"Little rookie, do you really want to catch up with me? Don't you know that your sister is made up of a civilization? (*smug)"
"When are you full? (*Not full)"
"Soon...soon. (*guilty)"
“How many times have you said this!! (*angry)”
…
Time passes again.
In the thirty-ninth year, when Lu Yuan was hiding in the Soul Gem and working hard on research, he suddenly heard bursts of exclamations from the outside world.
"The sun is coming out!"
"Report to the commander-in-chief, the concentration of ghost fog has finally dropped to the limit that ordinary creatures can bear! Algae have successfully reproduced! Fungi have successfully reproduced!"
All patrolling soldiers in the entire Sky City suddenly burst into hearty laughter.
Hope came so suddenly that the whole world seemed to become sunny.
In fact, they did not fully experience the 39 years. In order to boost morale and reduce the risk of distortion, Lu Yuan arranged patrol teams to live in the tiankeng in batches.
From the soldiers' perspective, the perceived time was about 1-2 years.
But this period of time was long enough, so long that... they had forgotten some of the pain and began to yearn for the blue sky and white clouds.
Lu Yuan quickly returned his soul to his body and walked out of the room.
Well, it was actually a cloudy day, and the sun was hiding in the high clouds, appearing and disappearing only occasionally.
"Commander Lu, look!" The great professor, Sha Mo, led him to visit various biological laboratories.
Things like mice, fish, plants, and fungi can all survive without protection.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Yuan went to the workplace of the large exhaust fan.
This exhaust fan is indeed huge. The diameter of the air outlet alone is 2 meters. After passing through a series of pipes and complex conversions, the power of the ghost will be filtered out and sealed in a small bottle.
Now, a drop of black stuff appeared in this small bottle. It was the drop of blood that contaminated Lu Yuan's left arm! This drop of blood kept squirming, eager to break through the glass bottle.
But this is obviously impossible, as the glass bottle is coated with many layers of "sealing resin"!
"It's easy to use it, but so difficult to take it back." Lu Yuan was also very emotional and glanced at the black liquid.
[The blood of the deformed ghost contains special rules. 】
[The Deformed Ghost, among the Ghost-level Anomalies, may be a weaker existence. Otherwise, even if it is just a drop of blood, it is not so easy to seal. ]
"Isn't it? This thing is too bad."
"At least I made it through."
The maintenance workers around were also in a state of fear, not knowing how to describe the days of these years. (The workers also had a shift system, and the time they felt was about a year.) "Do we need to wake everyone up?" Professor Sha Mo asked, "In theory, everyone will no longer be affected by the ghost fog. Our civilization can develop normally."
Lu Yuan was silent for a moment: "Wait a little longer... Don't be too anxious..."
"To be on the safe side, keep the exhaust fans running for a while. We need to reduce the concentration of these damn things to the lowest possible level. Continue the rotation system and wake up more personnel, but don't exceed 10,000."
Sha Mo nodded: "That's not wrong."
People looked towards the coral islands...
The professors there are still working on it.
It’s been… thirty-nine years.
The professors there felt that the time was a real 39 years, which was much more difficult than everyone else. (Lu Yuan hid in the soul gem to learn carving, and could not feel much time passing.)...
Lu Yuan sighed lightly. He had another reason that he didn't tell. Although he felt that the 180,000 deformed people might not be saved, he wanted to wait for a miracle to happen.
If we let it go now, a normal person might not be able to bear it if they found out that half of their relatives and friends were killed or injured.
Lu Yuan is a humane person, and he wants to continue waiting for a while.
