Chapter 781: Conversation with Pangu Brain
Faced with the information given by Pangu Brain, Lu Yuan did not dare to believe it easily.
The truth and falsehood are mixed together, making it difficult to distinguish.
"You are not your real body now? You are just a shadow? How did you get here?"
Lu Yuan observed patiently for a while and found that the opponent's power level was indeed not too strong. Apart from the strange "conceptual ability" and "time ability", his actual combat power seemed to be lower than that of an innate myth, but slightly higher than that of an acquired myth.
Pangu Brain replied: [Yes, this is only a small part of the power.]
[Back then, the 'Civilization of the Ages' placed a piece of my tortoise shell here, so I can project my power into this relic at any time. When the relic opens,]
[At the same time, I also protected this place from discovery. Otherwise, the remains of the sixth-level civilization would be difficult to pass down.]
Pangu Brain's true strength should not be weak. Lu Yuan estimated that it was about the same as the [Blood Vampire]...even if this was just a guess.
Lu Yuan followed slowly behind and asked, "What would you have done if we hadn't driven out the God during the summoning ceremony a year ago?"
"Back then, you gave us a big problem. Do you want the leaders of all advanced civilizations to die?"
This issue is very acute.
If Lu Yuan had not stepped forward and broken the concept of God, there would have been a large number of traitors in the Ninth Era, and the balance of victory would have tilted directly!
If Pangu Brain cannot give a perfect answer, Lu Yuan still will not trust it.
Pangu's brain remained calm and composed, replying, "My choice is simple: secretly kill a group of high-ranking officials, then pretend they've generously committed suicide for Pangu Continent. This will delay the arrival of the Gods."
[Although the Gods are powerful, they can't read minds. I killed people secretly, pretending that these people were very courageous and committed suicide for the sake of Pangu Continent. The other Gods won't know.]
[Of course, what you did at that time exceeded my expectations.]
So I changed the script and played it normally to reduce the possibility of being exposed.
[The leader of the Mo Sect should have this ability to turn the tide. You are quite good.]
Lu Yuan was vaguely shocked by this answer.
Pangu Nao wants to kill people directly!
If this fact really happened, the other [Gods] would definitely not think that there was a traitor in the team, and would only mistakenly think that the leader of this era was very principled.
He looked at Master Roshi deeply. The other party's temperament was exactly the same as Master Roshi of the first era, except that he was less human and more cold.
A terrifying spy has appeared in the opposing camp, which feels really subtle.
In particular, he still found it difficult to trust the spy - even if the answers he gave were perfect.
Pangu paused, then continued, "In addition to killing most of them, I will also select some with lower weights and let them successfully become traitors."
[If everyone commits suicide, it will be too obvious and my identity will be exposed.]
[The conversion of a small number of people will allow one or two [Gods] with relatively low combat power to successfully descend into this world.]
[However, the problem won't be too serious. There are still a few [ghosts] in Pangu Continent. When the time comes, the battle between the [ghosts] and the [gods] will last for a long time.]
"Besides, didn't the Ninth Era produce some powerful civilizations? There are also veteran alien civilizations like the Kame Civilization and the Iron Key Civilization, capable of engaging these forces. Even a handful of [Gods] wouldn't be able to destroy Pangu Continent. If I can't even handle these low-level [Gods], then the Ninth Era is hopeless, and no matter how hard I try, I can't change the overall situation."
His words were a bit cold, but they were objective facts.
The rules of the world are ultimately cruel and ruthless. The death or injury of some civilizations is of no consequence to the world as a whole.
"Your choice is correct." Lu Yuan sighed softly, "If you really join the other side, your value will be higher than everyone else's."
[Okay, enough nonsense, the property you want is right in front of you.]
With a slight "boom" sound, a silver-white door opened.
Inside is a long metal corridor with transparent glass windows inlaid in it. The rooms inside are filled with technological products of the sixth-level civilization.
After entering the large alien space, the remains of the "era civilization" revealed their true appearance.
The first impression it gives people is beauty and indescribable beauty.
This long metal corridor is made of an unknown composite material with soft lighting. Inside, there are idealistic barrier generating devices in the shape of crystal chandeliers.
These devices can detect enemies and also provide a certain degree of protection, similar to Green City's "Light Curtain Technology." Currently inactive.
The corridors were filled with the faint hiss of air, the low hum of machinery, and the occasional murmur of maintenance robots. Thick energy pipes and data transmission cables stretched along the walls and ceiling like living veins, with streams of light occasionally darting through them, infusing the entire ruins with energy and information.
"Is this...cold nuclear fusion energy?" Lu Yuan saw an instrument in a large room. The label on it had unknown words written on it, which should mean cold nuclear fusion.
There was no flame, no roar, and no all-consuming heat wave.
At its core lies a perfect sphere known as the "reaction chamber," cast entirely from a dull, obsidian-colored composite material. It's smooth and cold, like jade to the touch. Beyond the chamber lie layers of nested, precision silver rings, inscribed with indecipherable quantum patterns. These rings vibrate faintly at a frequency imperceptible to humans, emitting a nearly intangible hum that seems to emanate from the depths of space.
Cold nuclear fusion, the next generation of energy device, is cheaper and more resistant to idealism. Unexpectedly, it has been realized here.
“How should I inherit the inheritance?”
Pangu Brain, in the form of Master Roshi, replied: [The ruins currently have no owner, so they can only be maintained with robots at a minimum level. These robots will also gradually break down.]
[You can't expect me to maintain it. I'm just a phantom, and I'm not a strong artificial intelligence.]
[You can now inherit this inheritance. Go to the host room and sign your name.]
Lu Yuan remained vigilant.
He was actually more interested in the Pangu Brain in front of him. The other party had too much information. He asked in return, "But I didn't commit suicide during the trial. Doesn't that go against the settings of the civilization of the times?"
"Am I worthy of inheriting this inheritance?"
You didn't commit suicide, but you did give a satisfactory answer. I still have some autonomy in this regard.
[And you are the leader of the Mo Sect of the Ninth Epoch. If I don't hand it over to you, who else should I hand it over to?]
Pangu turned his head and glanced at him, seeming to sigh with emotion: "Like other [Demons], I have gradually developed seven emotions and six desires. However, most of my memories still come from Master Roshi of the First Era."
[In the blink of an eye, it's already the Ninth Era. We in the Mo Sect have experienced a lot, from creating visions on our own to collaborating with major peak civilizations, but all have failed.]
From the First Era to the Ninth Era, I have lived for too long. What I want most is to recreate the Mo Sect of the past, raise some animals and plants, teach a group of students, and conduct the research I want.
[Struggling here is just to find some meaning in my life. ]
【Leaving wealth to you is what I want to do. 】
The two walked through the metal corridor and came to the interior of a large alien space.
Lu Yuan widened his pupils and saw an extremely huge space city.
Countless hexagonal frames form the city's floors and walls. Beneath a transparent dome, the city presents a layered spectacle. The highest buildings are arranged in a row, their exteriors clad in smart glass with adjustable transparency. A sunlight simulation system projects a realistic blue sky and white clouds onto the dome, the angle of light changing precisely with Earth time. Emerald green, otherworldly plants line the streets, their leaves gleaming with an emerald sheen in the artificial atmosphere.
There are so many dazzling buildings that it is impossible to guess their true purpose.
There were also various devices that Lu Yuan didn't recognize, such as anti-gravity and artificial gravity devices, artificial wormholes, short-distance jumps, long-distance jumps...
There are all kinds of humanoid robots and robotic arms, so densely packed that it is unimaginable.
The most eye-catching thing is the small black hole in the center. Even to Lu Yuan's perception, there is nothing there.
Yes, in the pure sense of "nothingness", there are no idealistic rules or physical rules.
This is the city of level six civilization, called "Fortress of the Times"!
The two boarded a small spaceship and flew towards the "Fortress of Time".
The dome of the sky is a thin protective layer that may be only a few microns thick. It looks like glass, but can effectively isolate the vacuum environment of the outside world - it is the famous "nanoworm protective film", which not only has extremely high defense, but also has self-repair function.
Pangu thought: "You may not trust me, but that's fine. I won't ask for your secrets. We just need to do our jobs well and cooperate with each other."
The inheritance of this city's heritage doesn't involve any complicated procedures; it simply involves scanning your personal data, and is done in a purely materialistic way.
In a building as big as a playground and similar to a gymnasium, there stands a crystal sphere with a diameter of 50 meters. There is a ball of blue fluorescence in the sphere, which emits a neutral electronic sound.
"I am the Time Fortress, artificial intelligence, the spirit of time."
"A qualified heir is needed to activate this fortress."
"Please enter the room and become the heir."
The heir had no requirements, whether silicon-based or carbon-based, and the Era Civilization made no demands. In other words, the entire selection process was left to Pangu Brain. As long as Pangu Brain brought someone here, they would have the right to inherit.
Lu Yuan took a deep breath and tried to contact his allies in the base camp.
At this place, he was able to vaguely contact the person again, so he quickly reported the situation, including vaguely telling about his passing the trial.
Yes, that's very vague.
Lu Yuan no longer dared to trust anyone. There were spies even in the God's camp. Maybe there were spies in his own camp as well. Who knew about such things?
He didn't dare to bet that all the people he met along the way were selfless and good people!
Pangu Brain, this precious undercover, must not be exposed carelessly!
Of course, he still had absolute faith in Comrade Lao Mao, because Lao Mao was a partner he met at the very beginning when he was in trouble. No matter how powerful God was, it was impossible for him to bury a chess piece next to him at the beginning of the era!
"You mean you've passed the test? And then you just said you met a God, and you looked like you were going to die?" The old cat was very excited, and his fur stood on end. "You worried for nothing!"
The starry sky port of a level six civilization, this is simply the wealth it has always dreamed of!
It is not only for the eighteen civilizations of mankind, but also its dream during its lifetime!
In the past, it was an imperial governor, and it had once dreamed of becoming a level six civilization—driving a star port and conquering the entire Pangu Continent in an instant.
Now, is it really going to come true?
"Those [Gods] were just virtual images, simulated by the civilization of that time... but because they were so similar, I made a misjudgment." Lu Yuan said, "But now it's all right. I have obtained the inheritance rights."
"Since you have succeeded, then proceed according to the established laws!" The aliens in the Fairy Palace were all excited. With this port, their combat effectiveness would be greatly improved. This was truly unprecedented good news.
"I mean, why not just let Old Cat inherit it?" Lu Yuan said. "This inheritance right isn't just about signing your name. It involves the management of the entire port. I have to confirm various operations every day. It's really troublesome."
"I'm very busy with work right now. Whether it's Green City's internal affairs or various alliance meetings and craftsman meetings, I have to attend them all. So the best option is to find Old Cat to take over."
Lu Yuan still didn't quite trust Pangu Nao, fearing that the other party would do something... Facing such an existence, the Greedy Demon God could not bring a sense of security.
As for the old cat, it's a silicon-based life form, so the opponent's hands and feet might not be very effective...
But he was actually a little worried that something might happen to his comrades, so after proposing this plan, he was quite anxious and didn't know whether he was right.
The old cat was excited for a while, but soon calmed down and rejected the matter.
"No, my personal reputation isn't high enough... This port must be contributed to the Buzhou Alliance. There's no way we, the eighteen human civilizations, can keep it all to ourselves."
"Although I, Old Cat, have a bit of personal prestige, it's all because I'm the Council President of Green City. With the help of the platform, anyone else in this position would also have this level of prestige."
"And you, Commander Lu, don't need a platform; you are a banner. Therefore, only if you inherit the throne can you keep other civilizations in check and better utilize the port's functions. Be rude to anyone who doesn't cooperate, and no one will dare to provoke you."
