Chapter 161 The Prophet Who Creates Hostility
He walked to the nearest teleportation gate and lined up.
He originally wanted to re-examine his strength to join the battle sequence, but the watchers in the hall said that the casualties in the battle sequence were heavy.
He decided to wait and see, anyway, this war would not end in a day or two.
The efficiency of the transmission was very high, and when it was his turn, he pushed the card of the Watcher Association on the door.
[03-9077 World]
[The speed of time is 1 to 80]
[Open the transmission channel]
Colorful lights came over his face, and Wang Ran stepped in without hesitation.
Whoosh——
He appeared on a simple square transmission platform.
Due to the speed of time, the war lasted here for a year and a half, and the Watcher Association has built a large-scale war fortress.
The azure energy barrier covered the sky, and strange war machines were everywhere. Large drones flew overhead, and the towering turrets roared.
The air was filled with the smell of war.
"New here!"
"What's your number?"
Wang Ran looked in the direction of the voice.
He saw a table, and behind the table sat a man in black clothes and black pants.
The man had a nameplate on his chest, which read "Registrar Xiaofeng".
Wang Ran reported his number, and the man handed him a nameplate.
He said, "Pin this badge on your body. The badge has a built-in map, communication and sensing modules. It is tailor-made for this world and is much more useful than personal terminals."
"Your mission is to investigate the Purple Mist District."
"You can get some contribution points for every investigation that takes more than ten minutes."
"The deeper you go into the Purple Mist District, the longer the investigation time, the more valuable the intelligence obtained, and the more contribution points you will get in the end."
The man emphasized, "Contribution points can be exchanged for a lot of good things in the Third District Self-Help Committee!"
"Do a good job!" "
This is the bulk of the reward!"
Wang Ran looked at the man twice. He felt that this man was from the Third District Self-Help Committee.
Wang Ran asked, "What is the Purple Mist District?"
At this moment, a white light lit up on the transmission platform.
Another person was transmitted.
The man said very quickly, "The Purple Mist District is shown on the map. The reconnaissance is done by driving a robot for remote reconnaissance. You will know the specific information by pinning on the brooch. I still have to receive other people here. You can figure it out by yourself."
Wang Ran nodded.
"New here!" The man shouted behind Wang Ran, "What's your number?"
Wang Ran walked down the transmission platform.
He put on the brooch while walking, and a piece of information flooded into his mind.
"The Purple Mist District is an area affected by evil gods?"
"There are evil gods in this world?!"
Wang Ran's expression froze.
He wondered if he had won the jackpot. There were only a few evil gods in total, and he ended up encountering one?
[Start the real-time simulation]
[You go to the logistics area to chat with people]
[You learn that the Watcher Association has only discovered three worlds with evil gods]
[9077 is one of them]
[You ask them if they are afraid]
[You learn that the gods of the third district are here]
[You learn that the evil gods have not made any moves]
Wang Ran suddenly realized.
No wonder the Watcher Association dared to build a fortress here even though they knew there were evil gods in this world. It turns out that there is a fighting force equal to the evil gods here!
[You open the portal to return to the world hub]
[You wait for a while]
[You find that the transmission channel of 9077 is always unobstructed]
[Simulation ends]
Wang Ran estimated in his mind.
According to the time flow rate of 1:80, the world of 9077 is safe for at least one day.
He relaxed.
"But the Watcher Association has deployed troops here, they must want to kill this evil god, why haven't they taken action yet?"
Wang Ran didn't think too much about it. He opened the built-in map of the nameplate and was suddenly surprised.
According to the scale on the map, the scale of this war fortress is comparable to a province!
He looked up and saw the blue light of the energy barrier spreading all the way to the horizon.
It took only a year and a half to build such a magnificent war fortress. The strength of the Watcher Association should not be underestimated!
...
Wang Ran followed the map in the nameplate and came to the logistics area for reconnaissance missions.
Looking around, there are capsule-shaped cockpits and aircraft launch platforms everywhere.
They were so dense that there was no end in sight.
Boom—
accompanied by a loud explosion, a narrow, three-sided pyramid-shaped aircraft rose from not far away.
This was a reconnaissance robot named Bird. Its characteristic was its fast flying speed. It had three explosive speed-up modes, which made it suitable for forcing its way into the defense line of the evil god converts when a gap was created.
In addition to the bird, there are two other types of reconnaissance robots, called fish and bug.
The fish is equipped with dozens of shielding devices.
It has the slowest flying speed, but is very quiet when flying, and has an optical stealth module, so it is easy to be ignored even if seen by the naked eye, which is suitable for performing stealth-type reconnaissance missions.
The bug is equipped with several weapon modules.
The driver can fight back when encountering evil god converts, which is suitable for performing armed reconnaissance and can cover the other two reconnaissance robots.
The three reconnaissance robots have their own characteristics.
The record of detection distance is kept by the bird-type reconnaissance robot, and the record of detection time is kept by the fish-type reconnaissance robot.
The bug-shaped reconnaissance robot is neither long nor durable, but it also earns contribution points for killing evil converts, so it is also a popular model.
As long as a person lies in the cockpit and connects his consciousness to the robot, he can remotely control the robot to detect the purple mist.
This is the main way for the Watcher Association to obtain intelligence.
However, in order to prevent waste of resources, each person can only perform one reconnaissance mission per day, and he must pay contribution points to perform a second time.
"The duration record is about to be refreshed!"
"Come and see the boss!"
"Where is this hiding?"
"This guy is amazing. I've been here for a year, and the longest time I've spent investigating is only more than 20 days."
Many people gathered outside a cockpit, and several pieces of information were displayed on the door of the cabin.
[Model: Fish]
[Depth: Six Rings]
[Time: 61 days, 17 hours, 28 minutes]
The Watcher Association divided the Purple Mist Zone into nine rings with the location of the evil god as the center. The smaller the number, the closer it is to the location of the evil god.
The driver of this fish-shaped investigation robot has been investigating at the six rings for 61 days.
The longest investigation time record is 61 days, 17 hours, and 31 minutes. This driver is about to break this record.
Wang Ran walked over curiously.
A young-looking man was lying in the transparent capsule.
His expression was very painful, and the muscles on his face were tense, as if he was going through something bad.
Wang Ran was a little confused.
He thought, isn't it easy to fly an aircraft? Even if he encounters difficulties, it shouldn't be so painful to watch, right?
Others also noticed this.
"Strange, why does this big guy look so bad?"
"It seems wrong."
Suddenly someone in the crowd changed his face: "Oh no! Open the cockpit quickly!"
"He was caught by the evil god convert!" As
soon as the voice fell, it immediately caused a commotion.
Several people rushed up, fumbled on the side of the capsule for a few times, opened the door, and dragged the driver out.
"Puff!"
The driver spit out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
Someone shouted, "Call for medical assistance!"
As soon as the words fell, a translucent beam of light descended from his head.
The unconscious driver slowly rose in the beam and finally entered a white cube suspended in the air.
"Does anyone know how long he has been in this condition just now?"
"He has been like this about three days ago!"
"What happened?"
"Didn't they say driving a robot is safe?"
"Three days? That's it!"
"Last time someone became an idiot in one day!"
The person who first discovered the driver's abnormality sighed, and said earnestly: "Although driving a robot is safe, it is not 100% certain. If you find that the evil god's converts have stuck something on your robot, you should quickly blow yourself up!"
Someone asked: "Why?"
He answered with fear: "Because those things have the breath of the evil god, which can prevent us from breaking contact with the robot. Once they fall into the hands of the evil god's converts, what awaits us is endless mental torture!"
The crowd suddenly became agitated. If
the aura of the evil god
touches this thing, it will definitely lead to a miserable death!
Another person added: "It is said that one day in reality is one year in the consciousness space. If the person just now was tortured for three days, that would be three full years. Even if he had a will of steel, he would have been turned into pus!"
Someone asked curiously: "What if it's longer?"
"Longer?" The person who spoke took a breath, "You don't want to know."
"Okay! Disperse!"
"In the future, if you see that the driver's expression is not right, knock on the cockpit window twice. If the driver does not respond, press the red button on the right side of the cockpit and pull the driver out!"
"Spread it to each other!"
"Maybe one day you will save yourself!" "
."
The crowd gradually dispersed.
They had gathered to watch the boss break the record, but they found that the boss had been tortured into a fool by the evil god converts, and their morale dropped a lot.
Only Wang Ran stayed where he was, silently checking the information about the reconnaissance mission.
A huge sand table map emerged from the depths of his mind. Four-fifths of the area on the sand table was covered by purple mist of varying shades, and only one-fifth of the area in the northwest corner was rippling with azure light.
The azure light represented the area actually controlled by the Watcher Association.
Judging from the map, the Watcher Association is at a disadvantage.
However, the evil god is known for its ability to spread and pollute, so the Watcher Association's disadvantage is not actually that big.
But the situation is getting worse.
At the intersection of the purple mist and the azure light, there is a circle of small arrows indicating the direction of the boundary line, and these small arrows are pointing in the direction of the Watcher Association.
This means that the purple mist is advancing towards the Watcher Association every minute and every second, compressing the Watcher Association's control area.
Wang Ran focused his attention on the purple mist.
He saw eight flashing dotted lines, which divided the purple mist into nine rings, the outermost layer was nine rings, and the innermost layer was one ring.
The first ring is also called the core of the purple mist. There stands a purple-black light column, which is the location of the evil god.
The Watcher Association is very interested in the evil god.
They specifically issued a sub-task for the evil god of the 9077 world, hoping that someone can observe the evil god up close, and the reward is as high as 150,000 Morgan Stanley!
But no one has been able to complete this task.
After all, observing the evil god up close
doesn't sound like a job that can end well!
So almost no one wants to do this task.
Only the logistics watchers in charge of the reconnaissance mission have any idea about this mission, but the driver who has gone the farthest into the Purple Mist has barely reached the fourth ring, which is still far from the core of the Purple Mist. Moreover, the closer to the core of the Purple Mist, the more and stronger the evil god converts there are, and it is almost impossible to move forward.
The fourth ring is currently recognized as the limit.
Wang Ran glanced at the data of the reconnaissance robot.
According to the flying speed of the bird-shaped reconnaissance robot, it can enter the core of the purple mist in as little as 28 minutes.
28 minutes
is just within the range of his real-time simulation
[Start real-time simulation]
[You lie in the cockpit]
[You start a bird-shaped reconnaissance robot]
[You rush straight to the core of the purple mist]
[You enter the nine rings]
[The loud noise emitted by the reconnaissance robot attracts the attention of the evil god converts]
The advantage of the bird-shaped reconnaissance robot is that it flies fast. If there is no obstruction, it can enter the core of the purple mist in more than 20 minutes.
But the disadvantage is also obvious - there is too much noise!
Not only the sound, but also the light and energy fluctuations.

[You activated the acceleration device] [

[You entered the sixth ring]
[You found that the acceleration device is used up]
The bird-shaped reconnaissance robot has three burst accelerations, which can get rid of the evil god convert, but they are gone after they are used up.
If you want to enter the purple mist core,
you must stay at least until the fourth ring before you can use it.
[You attracted the attention of the evil god convert]
[You were shot down]
[.]
[Simulation ends]
Failed, Wang Ran was not surprised.
After all, more than a year has passed here, and the farthest reconnaissance record is still at the fourth ring. The difficulty of reconnaissance must be very high.
How can we fly farther?
Wang Ran lay in the capsule. He activated a bird-shaped reconnaissance robot, then stared at the sandbox in his mind, imagining different routes one after another.
[Start real-time simulation]

[Simulation ends]
The evil god converts are scattered in the purple mist without any rules. The purple mist at any position may have evil god converts of any scale, which makes the situation inside the purple mist into a nearly disordered chaos.
But disorder is not unsolvable.
As long as the simulation is repeated enough times, a safe route to go deeper into the purple mist can always be found - even if it is just a momentary gap.
A few hours later, Wang Ran opened his eyes.
"Is it possible that you can provide some protection measures for the driver first, so that he will not go crazy when he sees the evil god?"
