Chapter 475 Another... Another one?

"Biba, biba!" Sky Fortress noticed that Lu Yuan was frightened and jumping up and down, and shouted in dissatisfaction.

Lu Yuan was actually extremely anxious, and responded with a few words: "Oh, was it found in a big lake?"

"Thank you for your hard work. Go out and look for something similar..."

To be honest, each of the 100,000 Zerg legions has a keen sense of perception, and their reconnaissance capabilities are actually higher than those of humans themselves.

After receiving the praise, Sky Fortress was very satisfied. It took a group of its younger brothers and flew away like a swarm of hornets.

Only Lu Yuan and the three king insects were left, staring at each other.

Although the king insect is smart, he cannot understand the seriousness of the matter for a while.

After all, in their perception, as long as they serve the king and queen well, it doesn’t really matter what human cities look like.

Lu Yuan also knew that the Zerg were of little use, and he had to trust some people, otherwise it would be impossible for him to scout the entire city alone.

He quickly identified several reliable candidates.

"Hai Zhi Yun, where are you?"

"I'm on the 17th floor of the Computer Complex Building!" Hai Zhiyun quickly replied on his phone.

"Come to the toilet window."

As soon as the young Brother Yun walked to the window, he was forcibly dragged out by the Greedy Demon.

Under the terrifying pressure, Hai Zhiyun's hair stood up. What is this thing? It looks like a robot made of wood, but for some reason, just seeing the red light in its eyes made him feel frightened.

"Grand...Grand Commander?"

"It's me... I'm piloting the Greedy Devil."

Then, Lu Yuan activated the alien space at the fastest speed and said hurriedly: "Listen carefully, there may be a [demon] sneaking into our city."

"Ah?!" Hai Zhiyun was originally curious about why the fierce temperament of this greedy demon god was completely different from before. When he heard these words, he was so shocked that sweat soaked through his clothes.

How did a natural disaster suddenly occur? Lu Yuan said hurriedly: "You should know the risks, but a million people is too many, I can't find any suspicious objects at all."

"Now we have to rely on big data AI to analyze abnormal people... Remember not to alert the enemy. The [Demon] is intelligent. Once it knows we are looking for it, we will never be able to find it again. We must kill it with one strike!"

Hai Zhiyun was sweating profusely. How could a young man ever withstand such pressure?

When he thought about it carefully, even his sister might be possessed by the devil, and his legs almost went weak.

The terrifying aura of suspicious people coming from all directions suddenly surged up.

"I...I understand...I will immediately mobilize the supercomputer group to analyze the people in the city."

"You have to be careful not to reveal your true identity and don't trust anyone else! If you die abnormally, how can we find the murderer? We don't even know what stage it is in."

Hai Zhiyun's forehead was covered with sweat: "Then why do you believe me? What if I am also a [demon]..."

Lu Yuan said: "It is difficult for the [Demon] to completely replace you in a short period of time. You are acting as a humanoid computer every day, and no one can replace you in this job."

"If it wants to take over someone else's body, it will also find someone who poses the lowest risk and does not have complicated divine skills to take over."

"Otherwise, once the ability and the individual do not match, it is easy to expose the identity."

“I see. Even the intelligence of the Demon cannot match mine in the field of supercomputers!” Hai Zhiyun said seriously. “However, this will take time. I have never done this kind of data analysis before. I may have to design a completely new algorithm…”

"I know, you don't have to worry."

After Lu Yuan finished talking, he cancelled the alien space and stuffed the Essence of the Sea back from the window.

The young man had some psychological quality and pretended to go to the toilet before walking out again.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Yuan teleported to the high-risk supernatural research laboratory without stopping, called out Comrade Lu Tiantian, opened up the alien space, and had a conversation.

"If a demon possesses the body of one of us, is there any way to detect it?" Lu Yuan didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

The High-risk Laboratory has been conducting research on [Magic] for quite a few years, with minimal results, but there is still some experience.

Lu Tiantian was stunned at first, then his pupils dilated, and he answered subconsciously: "If it has been completely taken over, there is basically no way to deal with it."

"Because this possession affects the soul, conventional diagnostic measures such as X-rays and CT scans are ineffective, and it can devour the other person's memory. This is a perfect replacement method. For example, if I were replaced, I would be completely indistinguishable in terms of personality, intelligence, and memory."

"What about the divine skills? Can I inherit them?"

Lu Tiantian frowned: "If it is a divine skill that is mostly physical, I can inherit part of it; if it is a divine skill that is mostly spiritual, I cannot inherit it."

"Of course, I am not sure about the final result. Researching this phenomenon is very difficult and we do not have enough experimental data."

"When the [demon] took over the body, wasn't there a mass of sticky metal substance? Is there no way to detect that thing?" Lu Yuan asked with a frown.

"That is the core of the Devil. This part of the power will be dispersed into every cell. This idealistic element is equivalent to the energy of the fire... Everyone has it, so it cannot be detected. If it is so easy to detect, would it still be considered a natural disaster?" Lu Tiantian licked his dry lips, his face pale, "You mean..."

"I suspect... a natural disaster has sneaked in." Lu Yuan lowered his voice, "The Zerg Legion actually discovered the corpse of a demon."

Lu Tiantian took a deep breath and started to get nervous, but he was the smartest person in the second generation and he quickly calmed down from his panic.

"You don't have to worry too much. Demons are very harmful and have a long incubation period, but their desire to kill is not high. They are more inclined to gain more 'luck' or achieve a greater goal."

"I mean... to test!" He made a gesture of slashing with a knife.

"How to test?"

Lu Tiantian said: "Strong mental attack!"

"When humans are subjected to mental attacks that exceed their tolerance, they will immediately become paralyzed and unconscious. However, demons are almost immune to mental attacks. After all, they are immortal and as cold as supercomputers."

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment: "But the [Demon] has extremely high intelligence. When it sees others fall down, it will naturally pretend to be unconscious as well."

"Besides, will releasing mental attacks on children affect their brain development? We have quite a few children here... If something goes wrong, the loss will be too great."

There is only one chance for this kind of test.

Once the devil realizes that humans are looking for them, with its super high intelligence and deliberate cover-up, it will be impossible for them to find them.

But how strong would it be to launch a high-intensity mental attack on all the people in the city? The brains of low-level children might be washed out.

Lu Tiantian nodded: "So my opinion is to keep the city running smoothly first and look for suspicious objects in secret. Does Hai Zhiyun know about this?"

"I have told him to do it."

Lu Tiantian finally felt relieved: "Well, that's good... After finding the suspicious object, suddenly release the mental storm spirit rune!"

"In an emergency, no matter how intelligent the demon is, it is impossible for it to react instantly. This is just an identity test."

"It might even mistakenly think we've spotted it and try to run away."

"Criminals always have a guilty conscience. Although the Demon can be resurrected infinitely, it does not want to lose all its memories, so it will most likely escape... Wait, this Demon you are talking about, has it already died once? And then it was reborn with the help of another creature, so its memories have actually been lost."

Lu Yuan's pupils dilated: "It's possible...it's actually dead."

But how did it die?

The only possibility is that the flying snake palace in the sky killed a demon alive.

For a moment, Lu Yuan was in a state of confusion. He could only temporarily stop thinking about what was going on in the snake man's palace...

After all, according to current thinking, if we don't get close to that thing, it shouldn't be a big deal in the short term. Resolving the chaos in the city is the first priority.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Just go about your normal work and don't let yourself get caught."

"Of course I understand." Lu Tiantian stroked his gray hair in a very casual manner, "Maybe the new junior sister in the group is a [demon]. I have to take a photo with her!"

Actually, Lu Yuan was not in the mood to joke, so he urgently arranged for Miss Conch to hide in the poppy tree.

If the conch is possessed by another body, everything will be doomed.

Her own fighting ability is only mediocre, but once she turns evil, she might be able to massacre the entire city.

"The blackened one is ten times stronger, the whitened one is three times weaker, useless."

After being ridiculed by Lao Lu, the conch girl was trembling with fear and followed his orders. She was also using the dream ability of the poppy tree to look for suspicious objects.

There is no news from Hai Zhiyun yet.

Diplomats such as Lao Mao on the front line have already had preliminary exchanges with the Lanpeng civilization... There are no conflicts or contradictions, which is one less thing to worry about.

The scene looks quite friendly. The technology of the Blue Peng civilization is indeed ahead of the Earth civilization, even by 30-50 years.

According to the Lanpeng civilization, they invented a controlled nuclear fusion device through purely physical methods and achieved low-cost energy. They are a quasi-interstellar civilization that is about to step into the starry sky... Of course, after entering the Pangu Continent, controlled nuclear fusion is not very useful because the population is too small and some components cannot be produced. This kind of high-tech product will become ineffective if it cannot be maintained.

Various interstellar spacecraft, as well as projects such as star destroyers, all sound like bragging - after all, there are also terms such as "immigration to Mars", "starships", and "Martian citizens" on Earth, but Lu Yuan is not sure whether it is bragging.

The Lanpeng civilization has been imprisoned here for four full years, and humans have actually been here for nine months.

They also briefly exchanged information about the Snake Man Palace.

Everyone thought that this palace contained a way to leave. However, they just said some polite words and did not discuss in-depth cooperation.

Lu Yuan glanced a few times and felt quite helpless.

"Ding!" At this moment, the communicator rang again. It was a reconnaissance sickle howling something, and the sound was a bit harsh.

One of its antennas, holding a walkie-talkie, roared loudly at Lu Yuan.

"Didi! The nanny is dead!"

"What did you say?!" Lu Yuan frowned.

Ever since the higher Zerg learned to use electronic products, the style of painting has become increasingly weird.

It took Lu Yuan a long time to understand what it was saying.

The scout found a dead bat-like creature in a huge lake! This creature was extremely strong and as big as an elephant.

Could it be a dead... anomaly? Countless years have passed, and the remains have not yet completely decayed.

"You think this corpse is powerful and weird? Okay, I get it."

Lu Yuan did not dare to delay. He himself did not dare to leave the city, so he could only send the little mirage dragon to transport the body back.

"Hurry up and complete the task before dark!"

The little mirage dragon felt a little aggrieved after being yelled at like that, but Lu Yuan was in an anxious state, so it didn't dare to disobey and could only fly away quickly.

As for whether the little mirage dragon was possessed by another body? The probability is very low. After all, it would be unwise for a demon that had just come back from the dead to attack the vision spirit. It could just find a vulnerable human and slowly plan.

It was not until the evening that the little mirage dragon finally transported the item to the Green Mountain.

As a result, when Lu Yuan identified the body, he was shocked again.

[A shell abandoned by the [Devil]. It has completely rotted due to its age and has no use value.]

[Race: It may be a certain anomaly]

[Maybe it can be used as a collection item. The bones of the vision are also a small amount of money. ]

Lu Yuan felt his heart trembling. He had fought in many battles for so many years, but had never encountered such a strange thing.

Disaster-level phenomena are piled up in this place like they are free! In other words, the difficulty of escaping from this alien space may be beyond human cognition.

"What bad luck! This is such a bad luck! Is this the production base of Demons? What is the origin of the Serpent Man Palace?"

Lu Yuan patiently analyzed the situation: "The worst outcome is that there are many demons in this ghost place. They are trapped here, dying again and again, and reincarnating over and over again..."

"The best outcome is that there is only one demon here, and these bodies are the result of it taking over other bodies and then dying."

He found the geographical map and investigated the giant lake.

As expected, this large lake is the lowest place in the area.

Once heavy rains form rivers, these items will naturally be washed to low-lying areas.

Therefore, it was not a coincidence that the Zerg army found the corpse of the demon in the lake.
