Chapter 180 Doomsday Catastrophe, Immortal State
Chapter 180 Doomsday Catastrophe, Immortal State
boom!
The rock wall seemed to be shaken by some invisible force, causing the rocks to loosen and crack.
Chunks of rock fell off the rock face, raising clouds of dust.
Yang Tianxuan and others looked over curiously.
The original rock wall disappeared, and a wide tunnel appeared before our eyes.
The tunnel was deep and a faint cool breeze blew out from it, bringing a hint of chill.
Looking deep into the tunnel, there is a faint green light.
"Put away the mining robot and let's go in and take a look." Yang Tianxuan said in a deep voice at this time.
When the members of the Doomsday Technology Guild heard the news, they put their mining robots into their space bags, and then followed Yang Tianxuan to curiously explore the tunnel.
The tunnel was filled with a damp smell, and the rock walls were covered with stalactites of various shapes. Yang Tianxuan and the guild members took out flashlights from their space bags and kept shaking them in the space where darkness and green light were intertwined, dispelling the dark areas that were not illuminated by the green light.
"Everyone stay alert and pay attention to the movements around you." Yang Tianxuan reminded in a low voice, and his voice echoed in the tunnel.
As we go deeper, the green light ahead becomes clearer, and we can see a huge green light source at the end of the tunnel.
"Boss Yang, there is something here."
The sudden shout attracted everyone's attention, and Yang Tianxuan turned his head to look in the direction of the voice.
I saw many strangely shaped skeletons piled up at the corner of the ground and the wall on one side of the tunnel.
These skeletons are not humanoid. Their limbs are long and slender, like twisted vines. Each finger bone is like a sharp blade, and the fingertips are bent toward the rock wall, as if they were trying to grab something when they were alive.
Every bone of the dead creature was soaked in unknown green energy, and the whole body was glowing with a faint green light.
The analysis ability was activated, and relevant information appeared in the minds of Yang Tianxuan and others:
【Death】:
Hunting Level: Level 0
Target introduction: A member of the "Ghost Clan", a force that descended from the Ghost World. After being infected with the immortal virus, he turned into a Ghost Corpse and died a second time because he could not absorb enough flesh and blood energy.
……
After reading the analysis information, Yang Tianxuan and others continued to explore towards the light source.
When they reached the end, they discovered that the source of the green light was actually a huge crystal box composed of countless green crystals. The light released was intertwined with each other, forming flowing rays of light.
It is clear from the analyzed information that this is a crystal elevator that can lead to deeper underground.
The crystals that make up the crystal elevator are a level 3 spiritual ore.
At this time, Yang Tianxuan had two choices.
One is to dismantle the elevator and pack up the crystals directly and take them away.
The second is to take the elevator to the underground space of the cave to investigate what is underneath.
The choice is obviously the one that maximizes benefits.
After a brief exchange in the guild chat channel, the group entered the crystal elevator emitting green light and began to study how to start the elevator.
The operating area is inlaid with a square crystal plate, which is engraved with dense runes. The grooves of the runes flash with the same green light as the elevator as a whole. Yang Tianxuan stood nearby and looked at it carefully. He could see that the runes showed a spiral structure, spreading outward with the center of the crystal as the origin.
Try pressing one of the runes, and the crystal elevator will vibrate slightly and then suddenly sink.
The feeling of weightlessness came over me and the elevator descended faster and faster.
After a while, the speed of the elevator gradually slowed down until it stopped.
Looking up and outside, this is also a tunnel, with obvious signs of mining on the rock wall.
Chisel marks of varying depths crisscross the area, and in some places the rocks have been neatly cut to reveal flat cross-sections. It is not difficult to imagine that a large number of lives must have been involved in this mining activity back then.
Exploring the tunnel, you can occasionally see some broken stone pickaxes, shovels and other tools scattered in the corners. They are all rusted and blend in with the surrounding rocks.
Just then, a roar came from the end of the tunnel.
This was followed by the sound of dull and dense footsteps.
"Ready to fight."
As Yang Tianxuan finished speaking, the guild players took out their psychic firearms.
At this time, countless monsters with shriveled muscles and hideous faces appeared at the end of the tunnel.
The analytical ability was activated, and relevant information appeared in the minds of the Doomsday Technology Guild members:
【Ghost Leaving Corpse】:
Hunting level: Level 32 (unable to obtain Qi and blood energy for a long time, entering a weak state)
Target introduction: A special life form transformed from a member of the Guili tribe after being infected with the immortal virus. It acts only on its bloodthirsty instinct and can grow by devouring blood.
……
Dense psychic bullets shot forward like raindrops.
Then an energy bar drew a trajectory in the air and was thrown accurately near the group of ghost corpses.
boom!
With a loud bang, the tunnel shook and pieces of rubble fell off the rock wall above.
But the ghosts from the corpses seemed to be endless, attacking continuously, and after killing one wave, another wave came.
All the Doomsday Technology Guild can do is to launch strafing attacks in batches and suppress the fire to prevent the ghosts from getting close to the corpses.
Ink flame bullets, roaring bullets, thunder bullets... The bullets have enormous destructive power when combined with the characteristics of the soul, but every second requires a considerable expenditure of energy.
When the guns sound, the power is tremendous.
This is also the biggest drawback of the technological weapon route. Every output requires a sacrifice cost.
Although killing monsters will bring in revenue, it may not necessarily recoup the cost.
As the fierce battle continued, Qi Sheng regained consciousness.
He did not pay attention to the battle between the player and the ghost corpse, and explored deeper into the cave with the guiding consciousness.
After the perception scan, it was found that the entire underground space was divided into 18 floors, and each floor was built into an environment suitable for living.
He found a large number of air purification devices in the underground space, as well as spiritual field soil transported from the surface for growing various edible spiritual plants.
Preliminary judgment is that this was once an underground shelter for the Guili tribe to avoid the war in the outside world.
A complete internal resource circulation system has been established.
But for some unknown reason, all the members of the Guili tribe were infected with the immortal virus shown in the analysis information.
Finally, he found a Sixth Generation Origin imprisoned by countless rune chains at the end of the 18th underground space.
After analyzing the information, relevant information about the Sixth Generation Yuanchu appeared in Qi Sheng's mind.
【Prayer (Sixth Generation Genchu)】:
Hunting Level: 76
Target introduction: Primordial monsters that have mastered the rules and characteristics of the power of wishes can obtain the power of wishes by fulfilling the target's wishes (the stronger the target's desire to fulfill the wish, the more power of wishes will be obtained after fulfilling the wish; the higher the target's own life strength, the more power of wishes will be obtained after fulfilling the wish).
The appearance of the Sixth Generation Yuanchu was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise.
This also made Qi Sheng curious about the situation of the Guili tribe.
Before Bing Ren died in battle, he asked his tribesmen to build an underground space to capture and imprison the original monsters in order to pave the way for one of the four gods who would inherit the Emperor's Omen and consolidate my origin in the future.
But what is the purpose of the Guili tribe doing this?
Out of curiosity, he made a detailed analysis of the situation in the underground space.
It is impossible to obtain specific information by relying solely on ordinary parsing mode.
The Guili tribe did not leave any murals, information stones, or other records in the underground space.
In order to understand what happened in detail, he chose to consume his sacrificial power for in-depth analysis.
The guiding rule ability was activated at this time, time flowed backwards in the underground space, and past scenes appeared in Qi Sheng's mind in the form of images.
This is also one of the most powerful aspects of guidance.
All events that occur in the entire monster world at all times will be recorded in the world information library.
Ordinary creatures, even gods, do not have the ability to view this information.
But the guidance is different.
Its position in the monster world is that of an observer of the world's information database, with the ability to analyze everything.
You can access the world information database at any time to search for historical information that has occurred in the past.
As the sacrificial power was consumed, past scenes in the underground space continued to flood into Qi Sheng's mind, and the experiences of the Guili tribe also appeared in his mind.
Looking back, I saw several warriors of the Guili tribe were mining a kind of ore that emitted a faint green light in the mine.
The Guili warriors in the video are slender, generally over two meters tall, with highly recognizable facial features, sunken eye sockets, eyes that seem to burn with will-o'-the-wisp, and slender diamond-shaped pupils, like the vertical pupils of cats, which flicker with changes in light.
The skin is grayish white, bloodless and sickly, as if a dead person has just crawled out of the underworld. The facial contours are clear, the lines are hard and cold, the high cheekbones make the cheeks slightly sunken, and the dark purple lips make it look very gloomy from a human aesthetic point of view.
Looking at the Guili warriors who were working hard to mine spiritual ore, Qi Sheng cast his gaze towards the spiritual ore that was emitting a faint green light.
The analytical ability was activated, and the information of the spiritual ore appeared in his mind.
[Corruption Crystal Ore]:
Quality: Level 5 Spirit Ore
Introduction to Spirit Ore: Spirit Ore has special radioactivity, which can strongly interact with the nervous system and gene chain of living things. After invading the living body, it attacks the nervous system and stable life structure. The special information fragments carried by the radiation energy wave will gradually rewrite the gene chain of life, and the various functions of the body will be reorganized in a chaotic manner over time.
After reading the analysis and introduction, Qi Sheng roughly understood the reason.
It seems that the Guili tribe mined this spiritual ore with radioactive properties and was in a high-radiation environment for a long time, causing their life structure to collapse and mutate into a bloodthirsty life similar to zombies.
[Boss, that's not right. The Guili Clan obviously knows the harmfulness of this spiritual ore.]
A guiding voice sounded, and the image jumped to the 17th floor underground.
You can see a large number of Guili people busy at work nearby.
This seemed to be an alchemy room, and the air was filled with a foul smell.
The alchemists of the Guili tribe place the mined plague crystal ore in an alchemical furnace made of black rock.
The furnace walls were engraved with spells, and blazing flames gushed out from the bottom of the furnace, licking the bottom of the furnace, causing the plague crystal ore inside to gradually soften and fuse.
During this process, alchemists continuously added various spiritual materials into the furnace, such as rotten leaves tainted with the breath of death, a kind of magic insect that feeds on blood, and even the ribs of some creatures.
Over time, the crystals in the furnace gradually merged with the other materials, forming a thick liquid with a strong, rancid smell.
Then the alchemist of the Guili tribe injected a dark green gas into the alchemy furnace.
As soon as the dark green mist came into contact with the liquid, it quickly entangled and blended with it like a hungry beast encountering its prey, during which time black smoke continued to rise.
Until it was completely still, a liquid with a mixture of pitch-black and dark green colors appeared at the bottom of the alchemy furnace, wriggling continuously as if it had life.
At this time, a nearby metal box opened, and the Guili clan's alchemist grabbed a rabbit-like creature from it.
Throw it into the Alchemy Furnace.
Suddenly, the liquid seemed to be summoned by something and quickly rushed towards the creature's mouth and nose, covering it.
The creature suddenly let out a shrill scream and its body shook violently.
The liquid quickly spread throughout the body along the respiratory tract. Its hair began to fall off at a speed visible to the naked eye. Its skin gradually became dry and black, and its body quickly doubled in size.
Immediately afterwards, the creature's bones made a "cracking" sound, twisted and deformed inside the body, and the muscle tissue quickly decayed. The original blue eyes were gradually replaced by a layer of strange dark green, becoming empty and lifeless, with only a desire for blood.
The infection is complete in a matter of seconds.
With curiosity, Qi Sheng started to analyze the liquid.
【Immortal Virus】:
Target introduction: The virus source created by the Guili tribe can invade the host through the skin pores, respiratory tract and other pathways, release special energy in the host, block the normal communication between biological cells, and make the cells lose the ability to coordinate and operate. The evil gene fragments carried by the virus will be forcibly embedded in the host gene chain and rewrite the genetic code of the organism.
Once the genes are rewritten, the host's body will begin to undergo horrific deformations, the immune system will quickly collapse, and body tissues will decay, but the host will be able to maintain its life structure under the action of the immortal virus.
……
Seeing the analysis information, Qi Sheng fell into deep thought.
It seems that the tragedy was caused by the Guili tribe's own actions. They wanted to create a super virus that could infect and spread quickly.
As a result, before this special weapon was used, the entire clan was wiped out by the immortality virus.
So, why did they imprison the Sixth Generation of Origin?
Do you want to use the immortality virus to infect and control the Sixth Generation of Yuanchu?
But this idea is too far-fetched.
With doubts, the images in the analysis screen continued to play.
At this time, Qi Sheng's consciousness followed the guidance and arrived at the 16th space.
Here, he discovered a stable space teleportation array.
The energy crystal embedded in the teleportation array has gone out and can no longer keep the channel open.
After Qi Sheng contacted Yan Ming, he and the guiding consciousness followed the path that had been built to the end of the space channel.
The scene before him made Qi Sheng stunned.
This turned out to be a small world.
Looking down at the earth from a perceptual perspective, what appears before our eyes is a doomsday-like scene.
The outline of a city emerged in his eyes, and as his sight zoomed in, the entire city had fallen into an abyss of despair under the ravages of the immortal virus.
The city's outline looks like a dilapidated painting that has been smeared with paint.
The building is like a dying giant, leaning from side to side and riddled with holes from the erosion of the disaster.
The exterior walls of all the buildings were covered with twisted black spider webs and withered vines. The streets were like dead gullies filled with thick dust and debris, and lush wild green plants grew everywhere.
Abandoned vehicles were scattered around the city like dead beetles.
The dried bloodstains everywhere looked like ugly scars on the earth under the sunlight. Dense swarms of immortal zombies were wriggling in the city, wandering aimlessly, and occasionally making roars that echoed over the city.
The river in the city has turned into a foul-smelling abscess. The turbid water flows slowly, with all kinds of garbage and life debris floating on it, emitting a disgusting smell under the sun.
The river winds through the city, carrying death and decay to every corner of the city.
The entire city was shrouded in a thick haze. The sunlight had difficulty penetrating, and the dim light could only barely outline the dilapidated outline of the city.
The howling wind swept through the city, raising dust and debris all over the sky, as if it was a doomsday elegy.
After scanning every corner of the city with his consciousness, Qi Sheng realized what had happened here.
The immortal virus swept through the small world, turning it into a forbidden zone for life. Only faint breath of life activities could be sensed underground. These were obviously the few survivors left in the small world.
And the source of all this is definitely the Guili clan.
The immortality virus they developed turned the small world into a living hell.
Perhaps for the Guili Clan, the small world is just an insignificant testing ground, where they want to observe the spread and mutation patterns of the Immortal Virus after it infects life in the small world.
It's like humans observing the activities of ants.
It can be seen that the lives in the lower world are like ants in the eyes of the Guili clan. Even if countless lives perish, they will ultimately be nothing more than a set of experimental data in the hands of the Guili clan.
The doomsday scene in the city reminded Qi Sheng of the Ascending Clan and the Lord of Bliss.
Compared with the Guili tribe, these two forces are simply "great good guys".
At least the Ascending Clan and the Lord of Bliss will not launch a bloody massacre on the creatures of the small world. The Ascending Clan will even often release various spiritual resources that are helpful for cultivation into the small world.
His eyes swept towards the dilapidated city in another part of the small world, and the same scene made Qi Sheng sigh in his heart.
The destruction of the lower world may be just an insignificant episode in the grand process of civilization for the powerful tribes in the upper world.
In the historical narratives of the upper world tribes, the destruction of the small world might be as insignificant as a speck of dust in the vast starry sky, unable to cause even a ripple in the depths of their cold hearts.
The guide also spoke at this time:
[Boss, this is the cruel reality. Just like humans, out of curiosity, pour high-temperature aluminum water into ant holes in order to observe how ants make their unique nests, from the perspective of the creatures in the lower world, they think they are intelligent life forms and should not be treated as casually as ants. However, in the eyes of the creatures in the upper world, having wisdom is never a way to compare the level of life civilization, only strength is.]
[Just like a Zerg warrior without any wisdom, even many powerful tribes would be terrified and dare not provoke him easily. ]
[No matter how powerful a civilization's technology is, if wisdom cannot be transformed into power, in the eyes of a stronger person, it is just a weak ant that can be plundered at will.]
Qi Sheng nodded.
As the guidance says, wisdom is the source of civilization progress, but if wisdom cannot bring racial competitiveness, then wisdom is meaningless in the eyes of higher-level forces.
When analyzing the information of the war murals on the dome of the Darkin space, he learned that the Darkin Legion had plundered a large world in the process of plundering the world.
It stands to reason that the creatures in the big world possess stronger strength, but the technology tree that the creatures in that world climbed did not point out the military value, and all the resources were consumed in building the spiritual world.
The world's resources were plundered very easily by the Darkin Legion, and all living creatures in the world were slaughtered.
From this we can see that under the law of survival of the fittest, strength is the only criterion for measuring the level of life.
The perceptive consciousness climbed over mountains and crossed rivers in the small world, and saw dilapidated scenes everywhere along the way. During this time, it also discovered many small world creatures hiding in the underground world or building shelters, but the main life of the entire world has turned into immortal zombies.
But Qi Sheng still had a doubt in his mind.
Are the Guili Clan wreaking havoc on the small world just to test the power of the Immortal Virus?
In fact, it is meaningless to conduct experiments on the creatures of the small world, and the strength of the monster world is not comparable to that of the small world. The strength of the immortal virus is very high in the analysis, and it can easily destroy the small world, but it is still inferior in the monster world, and it may not even be able to get out of the Colorful Mist Coast.
If encountering a black tide, the Immortal Virus would not only fail to infect the evil spirits, but would instead become nutrients for the growth of the black tide.
What is the point of developing such weapons?
Although the technical research and development of the Lord of Bliss was rough in the early stages, it at least had a grand vision.
If successful, it will help the Lord of Paradise to conquer the world-class battlefield and become the overlord of the food served on the table.
With doubts, he and his guide passed through the space tunnel back to the underground space.
The video footage continued to display, and the details of how the Guili tribe created the immortality virus appeared in Qi Sheng's mind.
As more and more information continued to flow into his mind, after piecing together countless pieces of information, Qi Sheng suddenly realized that he had guessed wrong.
He had previously speculated that the Guili tribe created the immortality virus in order to improve the competitiveness of the race, but this was not the case.
The video footage advances to the moment when the Guili Clan captured the Sixth Genchu, and many questions were answered.
The Guili Clan is so obsessed with the idea of obtaining the power of the Sixth Generation's "prayer", which is why they imprisoned the Origin monsters in the 18th underground space.
Through behavioral analysis, the Guili Clan learned that the Sixth Generation Origin "prayer" can gain power by completing the target wishes.
Faced with the highly competitive racial environment in the monster world, tribes without the power of rules can only become food for the powerful tribes. However, the Guili tribe wants to gain space for continued growth by stripping away the power of rules from the sixth generation of origin.
This plan is divided into two steps and started simultaneously.
The first step is to develop a plan to obtain the power of prayer.
The second step of the plan is to try to strip away the power of rules from the body of the Sixth Generation Origin Prayer.
From the perspective of the Guili tribe, both plans will be carried out in an orderly manner, and will ultimately allow the Guili tribe to gain unimaginable development potential.
But the first step of the plan was successful, but the second step has not made any progress.
The Guili tribe calls this first step the Savior Plan.
After obtaining the prayer rules, the Guili tribe has envisioned two solutions on how to quickly obtain the power of wishes.
The first option is to find a small world and solve poverty, disease, war, etc. for the creatures in that world.
As for why we look for small worlds, it is because the needs of creatures in small worlds are easier to meet.
But the creatures in the monster world are different. Their needs cannot be met at all in the eyes of the Guili clan.
For example, help me destroy the black tide next door that threatens the lives of my people.
For example, help our tribe win a war.
The simplest requests of the creatures in the monster world require an extremely terrifying amount of resources to complete, and many goals are simply beyond the ability of the Guili tribe to achieve.
But the creatures in the small world are different. Their wishes can be easily satisfied through simple ways.
The first plan of the first plan is to provide various benefits to the creatures in the small world and help solve problems.
However, this plan encountered a series of drawbacks during the simulation process.
Meeting demand is essentially a curve that continues to climb upward.
When you are well fed and well clothed, you will think about sex. Every time you complete a goal, you must help the creatures in the small world to achieve higher goals.
The conclusion drawn from the deduction is that eventually there will even be demands that the Guili clan cannot meet, such as the creatures in the small world wanting immortality, wanting to live forever, and so on.
The supply of resources will also be consumed in an upward curve in the process of satisfying wishes.
This went against the original intention of the Guili Clan, and instead made the Guili Clan the provider of services to the creatures in the lower world.
More importantly, this plan cannot produce willpower for a long time. Once a certain critical point is reached, the Guili tribe will no longer be able to satisfy the wishes of the creatures in the lower world.
So after the first plan was completed, the second plan was born.
The plan is to create the end of the world and then appear as a savior.
In the context of the end of the world, the creatures in the underworld will have a strong desire to survive and be protected.
Simple food can provide hope for survival and generate a continuous supply of willpower.
From the perspective of gaining benefits, giving hope in desperate situations is far easier to generate willpower than supporting development in a comfortable life.
After the deduction was completed, this plan became the core plan for the Guili tribe to obtain willpower.
Becoming a savior or a destroyer has nothing to do with morality, it is all driven by interests.
There are many ways to create the end of the world.
The original plan was that one side of the Guili tribe would invade the small world, while the other side would appear as the savior.
However, this plan has many drawbacks and will involve a large amount of clan power to layout the small world.
During this period, the Guili tribe discovered the Corruption Crystal Mine while digging in the mine.
A brand new idea was born in the minds of the Guili clan's top leaders. They did not need to personally participate in creating the doomsday. They could use viruses to create a catastrophe that would sweep across the small world.
After that, the Guili tribe began to research viruses based on the characteristics of the Corruption Crystal Ore.
Therefore, the birth of the Immortal Virus was not to destroy the small world, nor to develop technological weapons to fight against the powerful tribes in the monster world, but only to create a raging disaster in the small world.
The ultimate goal of all this is to reach the Sixth Generation Origin.
Praying to the original monsters is the core goal of the Guili tribe to improve the competitiveness of the tribe.
However, the development of events obviously did not proceed in the direction planned by the Guili Clan. The idea of stripping away the rules within the body of the original monster was unrealistic.
Even the Black Tide, the Zerg, and even the Eight Extreme Gods of the Monster World all know one thing.
Origin is one of the cornerstones of the monster world, embedded in every inch of space. It is also the longitude and latitude that constructs the rules of the entire world. It is like a part of the invisible giant pillar that supports the world and is integrated with the entire world structure.
Unless the Emperor returns, no one can separate it from this inherent framework and claim it as their own.
Even if the origin dies, it can be reintegrated into the world framework and reborn in an unknown place as the world rotates.
But the Guili tribe was obviously unaware of this problem.
They believe that they can obtain the original rules with their own wisdom and strength, and then the Guili tribe will become a racial force that controls the rules.
Perhaps we still cannot fight against the most powerful tribes, but at least we have hope of continuing to climb up.
After formulating the plan, the Guili Clan chose to isolate themselves from the world and simultaneously launched the Savior Plan and the Rules Separation Plan.
As a result, the plan to strip away the rules has always been at a standstill, and research and development has made little progress.
During this period, the Immortal Virus continued to grow and evolve, and eventually broke away from the control of the Guili Clan and evolved into a powerful virus that could infect the Guili Clan.
The situation is completely out of control.
The Guili Clan paid a heavy price for this. The Guili Clan fought with their strong physical bodies. The infected Guili Clan warriors, with the blessing of the immortal virus, had physical strength that surpassed that of ordinary Guili Clan members.
During the confrontation, many tribesmen died and turned into ghosts.
The final result was that Gui Li died under the corruption of the immortal virus, and the entire clan turned into Gui Li corpses wandering in the underground space.
Only the sixth generation origin "Prayer" is still imprisoned alone in the deepest part of the eighteenth underground layer.
There is an interlude at the end of the video.
Sixteen initially infected members of the Guili tribe successfully escaped to the first level of space by taking the crystal elevator, but they were faced with a rock wall marked with a forbidden barrier.
Try as they might, the 16 members could not break through the rock wall and escape.
In the end, these 16 members all turned into ghost corpses.
The difference is that the ghost corpses in the underground space can maintain the life of the virus through the radiation energy emitted by the corrupted crystal ore.
But in the first layer of space, there are not even any free energy particles in the air.
In the end, the 16 ghost corpses starved to death in the tunnel, which will also be shown in the analysis information. This is a second death.
Only after time passed and the barrier on the rock wall disappeared, were the players able to enter.
In fact, the immortal virus that almost destroyed the small world was not released by the Guili tribe.
Although the two plans of the Guili Clan are carried out simultaneously, it is necessary to obtain the prayer rules first and then plan for the doomsday in the small world.
Directly releasing the immortality virus into the small world does not meet the needs of the Guili clan.
However, the space channel is always in a stable open state. After destroying the Guili Clan, the immortal virus liquid continued to wreak havoc in the underground space. Eventually, some of the liquid immortal virus dripped into the small world along the open space channel.
The doomsday catastrophe imagined by the Guili tribe finally broke out in the small world.
Countless lives were infected and died, turning into evil creatures wandering the world. The powerful physique bestowed by the spiritual virus allowed the immortal zombies to easily resist all kinds of weapons from the small world, and they were simply not something the small world's army could contend with.
This catastrophe is still going on.
The survivors of the small world have tried armed confrontation and even technological research and development, trying to find an antidote to the immortality virus.
But all efforts were in vain.
In essence, the Immortality Virus is a product from the monster world, generated using various spiritual resources. It is impossible to research an antidote with the resources of the small world.
After viewing all the historical scenes in the underground space, Qi Sheng’s consciousness followed the guidance and returned to the Origin Altar.
As for the Sixth Generation Yuanchu, he was not in a hurry.
Based on his understanding of the players, once they have discovered an unknown area, they will definitely dig deep into the ground to look for possible hidden opportunities. Even the bottles and jars left by the Guili Clan will have to be smashed and inspected. The Sixth Generation Yuanchu who is imprisoned in the deepest part of the earth will sooner or later be taken in by the players.
……
Three floors of underground space.
The psychic firearms roared angrily, tongues of flames danced wildly in the darkness, and bullets were like dense raindrops, madly mowing down the immortal zombies.
The splashed black blood left streaks on the cave wall.
As the cave tunnels are narrow, the impact of the psychic bullets is even stronger, and the bullets with elemental power are interwoven into an insurmountable web.
As members of the Doomsday Technology Guild rushed in from outside one after another, the battle became more and more intense.
Grenade launchers soon joined the battle, and the rubble on the cave continued to fall off and was then crushed into powder by the violent firepower.
The blast sent a gust of wind through the cave, raising a cloud of dust and debris.
Under the power of the explosion, the immortal zombies' limbs flew everywhere, and their incomplete bodies were thrown in all directions by the air waves.
The immortal zombie that killed him completely was transformed into mist by the power of all things extraction and merged into the player's body.
After making a preliminary calculation of the income and expenditure, Yang Tianxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the revenue brought by this group of immortal zombies is slightly greater than the expenditure, otherwise it would be too expensive to continue fighting like this.
He originally planned to contact other guilds for help, but after making sure that the income could cover the expenses, he decided that his own guild would take over the potential opportunities in the underground space.
Looking ahead, hot shrapnel was flying everywhere in the cave, but the immortal zombies were not afraid of death. When the front row fell, the back row immediately continued to rush forward, stepping on the corpses of their companions.
The twisted body looked hideous and terrifying under the light of the bullets.
The cave was filled with smoke mixed with a foul smell, almost suffocating the players.
But thinking of the potential opportunities in the underground space, the players of the Doomsday Technology Guild chose to be patient.
They kept pushing forward and continued exploring along the downward tunnel. Every time they encountered a fork in the road, they would send a part of their forces to explore. Everything in the rooms of the Guili clan members would be smashed and inspected repeatedly.
Basically there is something to gain every time.
Before the Guili tribe secluded themselves from the world, they brought a large amount of resources into the underground space, including various types of spiritual ores, spiritual plants, and other resources.
The further down we go, the more intense the battle becomes.
The number of ghost corpses appearing is increasing.
These ghost corpses were sealed in the underground space. They have not consumed flesh and blood for a long time and can only survive on radiation energy. Their combat power is much worse than when they were first infected. They have no power to resist the firepower coverage of the Doomsday Technology Guild.
At this time, a voice sounded in the team chat channel in the cave branch area:
"Shit, I'm infected."
The nearby players looked up and saw that the person who was speaking was "Wang Yu", a 46-year-old mechanical engineer from the Doomsday Guild, who took the melee route.
At this moment, there was a blood stain on his left arm, which penetrated into his skin in the blink of an eye.
"How does it feel?" the player next to him asked curiously.
"I don't feel anything, but I'm losing blood."
As he spoke, Wang Yu posted a screenshot in the guild channel:
[Infection (mild): Infected with the immortal virus, life status continues to suffer damage. 】
Just after sending the screenshot, Wang Yu suddenly exclaimed “Oh shit!”, then let out a shrill scream, fell to the ground and started rolling around.
Seeing that Wang Yu was injured, the nearby members decisively pulled Wang Yu back.
At the same time, the speed at which Wang Yu's health bar decreased gradually accelerated.
Soon, the infection status changed from mild to moderate.
At this moment, Wang Yu only felt a feeling of heat spreading from the arm that was touched by the blood, and his limbs became heavy, as if an invisible force was dragging him.
"Do you need help?" A player pointed his gun at Wang Yu.
Click.
A crisp sound was heard, and the bullet generation path in the psychic firearm switched to the psychic armor-piercing bullet structure.
"No, I'm curious about what will happen if I'm infected as a player." Wang Yu's forehead veins bulged and his expression was distorted.
"As expected of you, your curiosity is always so strong." Hearing this, the friend smiled and nodded, then pressed the switch again, switching the bullet generation path to the easy-to-generate ordinary bullet mode, turned around and started shooting at the immortal zombie.
At this moment, the hot feeling in Wang Yu's arm turned into an intense burning pain, as if countless red-hot needles were piercing into his bone marrow.
The pain quickly spread along his arm to his entire body. Every inch of his skin felt like it was being burned by fire. Every nerve was twitching wildly. His body was shaking violently and uncontrollably, and the gun in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
His consciousness gradually became blurred, and the figures of his comrades in front of him and the immortal zombies in the distance began to overlap.
His body began to tremble uncontrollably and a low roar came from his throat. His eyes became empty, and his originally clear pupils were gradually covered by a layer of dark green. His skin became gray and rough at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if countless insects were crawling under his skin.
His rationality also disappeared little by little in the process, and a strong feeling of hunger surged in his heart, driving him to look at the friend standing in front of him.
"Are you okay?" At this time, the friend turned and looked at Wang Yu.
"It's nothing... I just thought you looked a little delicious today... ahem."
"If you really become an immortal zombie, can I get the sacrifice power and evolution points by killing you? Then I can use the bug to kill you infinitely... It would be best if I could get the items in your space bag and the remaining sacrifice power."
"Get lost. Do you want me to give you my wife in real life as well?" Wang Yu yelled angrily. His eyes were wide open with bloodshot in them.
"That's not necessary. A brother's wife should not be bullied."
At this time, Wang Yu could no longer hear what his brothers were saying.
A moderate infection turns into a severe infection at this point.
He subconsciously wanted to shout loudly, but could only squeeze out a few unclear roars from his throat. He gripped the rock beside him tightly with his hands, and the blood flowing from between his fingers slowly slid down the rough stone wall.
As the virus invaded deeper and deeper, his consciousness began to fluctuate between clarity and chaos.
The Immortality Virus wreaked havoc on both his body and mind.
His body twisted as well, and the bones made "cracking" sounds under the flesh, as if an evil force was reshaping his body. His skin began to crack, and bloodstains covered it like spider webs, emitting a disgusting stench.
Just as his consciousness was about to completely sink, a reminder sounded in his mind:
[Challenger Tip: The spirit has reached a dangerous critical value, triggering protection and dispelling spirit erosion. ]
Along with the prompt, the immortal virus that invaded Wang Yu’s spiritual sea of consciousness was swept away by the purification system.
Wang Yu, who was still struggling in pain, instantly regained self-consciousness.
At the same time, a new reminder sounded in his ears:
[Challenger Tip: When the player dies, decide whether to continue the game or return to the Emperor's Village space to enter the resurrection cooldown (the Soul feature cannot be used in the Immortal state, and the Novice Village space cannot be entered)]
The sudden reminder made Wang Yu stunned.
Calling up the attribute panel, he found that his health bar on the interface had reached the bottom, but there was an extra black health bar.
what? !
What's even more outrageous is that the mental strength attribute became 0, but the physical fitness attribute increased by nearly one-half.
The upper right corner of the property panel displays: Immortal status.
