Chapter 491: Countermeasures for [Ghost]

After doing all this, Lu Yuan took Miss Conch away from the tiankeng.

The darkness today is particularly deep. Even the bright high-argon lamps cannot penetrate the thick night. The snakeman palace in the distance has not changed at all, but terrible uneasiness is brewing and fermenting.

The square on the border between the Sky City and the Green Mountain was bustling with activity as the human government was arranging the next shift.

This time there is no need for everyone to hibernate, because if people want to escape this predicament, they must find a way to explore the snakeman palace.

It is obviously inappropriate to let soldiers explore a place where ghosts exist. It is better to use various high-end puppets.

Therefore, some industrial systems in various industries need to be retained. It is estimated that the number of sober people to be retained is about 20,000, including fitters, engravers, engineers, doctors, scientists, soldiers, etc.

"Old Cat, you make the arrangements. Can Green Mountain accommodate so many people?"

"Of course we can. We only need one hibernation chamber to sleep well, but the personal space may be very small."

"During this special period, this is the only way..."

Various third-level civilization technologies, such as light curtain spiritual words and explosion spiritual words, are also being urgently prepared.

Lu Yuan patrolled for a while, sighed, and came to the Zerg's "cave heaven" again.

"King, there are terrible phenomena resurrected in the outside world. What do you want?" The three king insects saluted respectfully.

"From now on, humans will go into collective hibernation. There won't be that much food produced, and most of you will need to sleep for a long time." Lu Yuan ordered.

The scene in the cave is very busy. Various materials such as coal, wood, metal, etc. are neatly stacked in the warehouse. There are special Zerg to digest these conventional resources and decompose them into sticky nutrients.

Through the first-level transmission of the food chain, the Zerg can provide high-end consumables such as extraordinary mushrooms, insect milk, shellac, silk, etc.

"We will be prepared accordingly and retain only the minimum level of motivation."

King Insect Lu Da bowed and spoke in a very organized way: "90% of the insects will enter a dormant state, leaving only 10% with combat effectiveness, ready to receive orders at any time."

"We don't need so many. Let's put most of the Zerg into hibernation... This time we're not going to be able to defeat the enemy simply by fighting." Lu Yuan clenched his fists.

Power really does change the Zerg's heart. Since the Zerg army expanded, these three guys have been working diligently, shouting slogans like "Stronger than mom" and "Stronger than mom" every day. They also introduced some modern management methods, claiming that they can improve efficiency. It seems very... perverted.

Lu Yuan was too lazy to meddle in other people’s business, so he just let them do as they pleased.

"1% of the awake people... a thousand bugs are enough for now."

"Of course, we still have to face the battle that may come." Lu Yuan coughed, "Although a [Ghost]-level disaster, once it really happens, the Zerg will not be of much use."

"But if there are other monsters, we can still be useful."

"I need to defend our city!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, the other Leviathans, Mammoths, Sky Fortresses, and Reconnaissance Scythes all started howling and roaring so loudly that their teeth were almost broken.

"Yara detective mop wax!"

"He's dead in the gutter."

"What are you talking about?"

"Proportion Bara!"

Leviathan's big pincers made "crunching" sounds, and it rolled on the ground like a baby.

Miss Conch, who could understand the "insect language", kept laughing: "They are complaining to you."

Lu Yuan inquired for a while with gritted teeth, well, it was because they had been living a modern life recently, and they were fed up with birds and wanted to run out and kill.

What is “better than mom”? We just want small happiness, not the rise of a great power.

"Even insects are being exploited these days." Lu Yuan was speechless.

But then again, low-level cannon fodder can regenerate and have no feelings, so I don’t feel bad if some of them die or get injured.

He would not send these advanced Zerg out to fight unless it was absolutely necessary.

The enemy is too powerful. [Bugs] are not even one of the four natural disasters, so why should they fight against [ghosts]?

On the other hand, the Zerg Army is also not very attractive to the [Ghost].

Because these bugs are all stupid, their god attributes do not exceed 3 points, and in the eyes of the [ghost] they are just air level...

Theoretically, as long as the Zerg army does not run in front of the [Ghosts] and actively cause trouble, they are much safer than humans.

After giving detailed instructions for a while, the Zerg went into collective hibernation, spitting out silk and wrapping themselves like old calluses. Only the higher-level Zerg were temporarily awake and obeyed the next orders.

Just then, a report came from Professor Sha Mo of the Engineering Department.

"Commander-in-chief, the altitude of Green City has dropped to 500 meters."

"Okay, maintain this altitude! Slowly move away from the Serpent Man Palace and head towards the city near the Blue Peng civilization. Don't move too fast and keep the glyph hidden."

"clear."

Just then, another channel in the headset rang.

"Commander-in-chief, are we really going to head to the cities near the Blue Peng civilization?" Professor Lu Tiantian of the Academy of Sciences questioned the decision. "Their population is eight times ours. Although they also have hibernation technology, the risk factor is still much higher than ours."

"Their materialistic technology is indeed better than ours, but their understanding of idealism is relatively rudimentary... Even if we give them some knowledge, some things will be difficult to catch up with in the short term."

"Once the Blue Peng civilization is attacked by a strange phenomenon, if we get too close, we might also suffer..."

"In theory, it is true." Lu Yuan was silent for a moment, then said into the headset, "But you have to know that this grassland is only this small, about a quarter of the Earth's area. In the face of a [Ghost]-level anomaly, it is indeed not that big."

"Once the enemy slaughters all the Blue Peng people, the mess left behind will be too big to bear. This strange phenomenon may not be a [ghost], it may also be other [demons] or something like that..."

"So there is no choice but to huddle together for warmth."

[Ghosts] are idealistic perpetual motion machines, and theoretically they are not lacking in spiritual charm, but why do [Ghosts] tirelessly attack civilization? The answer is simple, for the highest level of idealistic energy, luck!

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

It can get "luck" by destroying a civilization! Lu Yuan paused and thought of a dark and obscure possibility: "Unless..."

Lu Tiantian directly raised this possibility: "Unless we go to war with the Lanpeng people now, we must exterminate them first before they are slaughtered by the vision!"

"At least this spiritual energy will not fall into the hands of a natural disaster-level anomaly. This plan is actually safer, isn't it? If the [ghost] gets the 'luck', wouldn't it be even more terrifying?"

All of a sudden, all other communication channels fell silent.

Everyone held their breath and began to think about this possibility! Lu Yuan shook his head. He actually thought about this possibility, but he rejected it in the end.

On the one hand, the 18 human civilizations have no precedent of massacring other civilizations. It would be fine if there was a grudge between the two sides, but now there is no grudge or hatred, and from a moral perspective, it is really impossible to do it.

Don't underestimate "morality", it is the cornerstone of social development.

Human development requires some inner driving force, whether it is a sense of superiority or a sense of morality, it always requires some internal motivation.

Once morality collapses, civilization will decline and will never regain its former beautiful atmosphere.

On the other hand, when two civilizations go to war, especially a war of extinction, it involves dramatic fluctuations in "luck".

The thing called "luck" is illusory for human beings. It is invisible and intangible. Only the third-level civilization technology [time-space tidal harmony and conversion] can transform it into substantial idealistic energy.

But for the vision of the "Greedy Demon", the existence of "luck" can be sensed more clearly.

The same should be true for the rest of the visions.

"So we absolutely cannot start a war at this moment. Once a war starts, the luck of both sides will fluctuate greatly. The [ghosts] will most likely revive immediately and look for our city!"

"So there is only one choice left for us: if we prosper together, we all prosper; if we perish together, we all perish!"

Lu Yuan said with a straight face, "Of course, we don't have to risk our lives to support them. Both sides should maintain a safe distance! If the other party makes some inexplicable dangerous moves, we will stop them immediately!"

"We must take the lead in this operation. This is the first priority for survival."

"As long as the other prince is not extremely stupid, he should agree to our plans. Don't worry, we have established enough trust." He waved his hand decisively.

This statement was well-reasoned and was agreed upon by the heads of various departments.

Lu Tiantian thought of the remains of [Demon·Ruins of Control] that he had just put into the safe, and vaguely guessed what had happened. His eyelids twitched a few times: "Okay, I understand."

"Since the other party is willing to cooperate, let's move our cities closer together and act in unison."

Just like that, Green City slowly approached.

Because of the slow movement, it may take a month to reach the destination.

During this period, both humans and the Blue Roc civilization have remained vigilant and urgently launched several floating satellites.

The shadow above the Serpent Man Palace did not continue to spread. The blood-red pupil was half open and half closed, in a state between awakening and sleeping...

On the fifth day, the magnificent palace suddenly began to move slowly!

It flew all the way to the middle of the grassland and landed on the ground with a slight "boom".

Accompanied by overwhelming dust, the great escape of animals has begun!

Large tracts of Datura flowers spread out from the Serpent Man's Palace, growing wildly in the soil, occupying the original grassland! (End of this chapter)
