Alien Dust

Chapter 246 Another Dead End
Li Feng was silent for a long time.

He lowered his head and looked at his palms. They were dark, but he could not see the death line that Wu Hen mentioned, let alone the death butterfly mark on his forehead.

"Since it is an annexation, there are bound to be risks. Everyone will die in battle, so it is very reasonable for me to be among them." Li Feng said.

If this was the only reason, he would not have terminated the plan.

Wu Hen was very surprised by Li Feng's answer.

A human community has given birth to such a great strategist and explorer. If he were to be sacrificed, what would happen to this shattered homeland?
Although all the old-school people regarded him as their spiritual leader, Wu Hen knew exactly what kind of person he was.

If this home were to explode one day, he would definitely flee with his family. As for the common people, it has nothing to do with him.

The greater your ability, the more miserable you live.

Li Fengcai was the religious figure of this old school. With his death, this homeland would be no different from an empty shell of a planet.

Looking at Li Feng's determined eyes, Wu Hen understood that this reason would not be able to persuade Li Feng to give up this action.

"Where are the others?" Wu Hen asked.

“It’s still just being deployed.”

"I mean, what if everyone else is going to die?" Wu Hen asked.

Li Feng was silent again.

Without waiting for his answer, Wu Hen walked out of the command room and walked around the entire base.

Outside the door was Li Feng's adjutant, also a top warrior who hid his strength very well. He was dressed in leather and exuded a cold aura like a machine.

Wu Hen glanced at the leather-clad adjutant and then extended his hand.

The adjutant looked confused, not knowing what Wu Hen was going to do, but he still took off his leather gloves and shook hands with Wu Hen as a sign of respect.

Soon, a strange picture appeared in Wu Hen's spiritual vision, as if a mini purple emperor butterfly formed by death energy was hovering on the forehead of the tall adjutant, forming a death-omen butterfly on the forehead again.

Letting go of his hand, Wu Hen randomly selected some scientific researchers from the base.

Many of these scientific researchers in white coats are only responsible for analyzing data and logistics.

However, as long as they came into contact with Wu Hen's "Hand of Death", the same scene appeared. A butterfly of death lingered on everyone's forehead...

Wu Hen frowned. Everyone in this secret base had the same fate. It was as if their throats were locked by the Lock of Impermanence and they were being slowly dragged towards the road to the underworld!
Wu Hen had at least inherited a bit of the temperament of the underworld priest, and his intuition told him that these people's names had already been engraved in the Book of Life and Death. They were people who were about to die, but their time had not yet come.

"I'll be back soon. You are not allowed to take any action before then." Wu Hen instructed Li Feng.

Li Feng was also extremely confused, but still nodded.

……

After Wu Hen left, Li Feng paced around the base.

There was a mechanical mouse next to him, which seemed to have spirituality. It was sticking its head out and staring at Li Feng quietly.

There was no one else around Li Feng, and his eyes finally fell on the mechanical mouse.

"Rat, what do you think of our mission? Is it good or bad?" Li Feng started talking to the rat with AI intelligence.

"What we need to focus on now is Lord Wu Hen's ability of death omen. As data life forms, it is difficult for us to understand this kind of mystery and magic. You should calm down and analyze this law of death omen." Zi Shu's voice was clear and clean, like a robot girl.

"You're right. I was indeed a little nervous. As a scientific researcher, I should be as calm as you and analyze the data without being disturbed by any emotion. The data will not lie, unless it is one-sided." Li Feng said seriously.

"Lord Wu Hen has entered the Pure Land... His speed is so fast that he has reached the forefront of our technology. I wonder if he can reach sub-light speed at some point." Zi Shu said.

"He should be collecting data as well." Li Feng said.

"Yes, if he really evolved the Law of Death, and our plan this time is related to the life and death of all mankind, then the data he collects next should be suffocating and despairing." Zishu said.

"I hope it's just a partial death sign."

……

Silver Dome City Sea Mountain Cabin.

Wu Hen's face turned dark blue. The moment he walked out of his house, even though the whole world was sunny, he only felt dizzy and dark.

Death butterfly, death butterfly, death butterfly...

From Li Feng's secret base, to the Order Keepers guarding the Pure Land, to the new Spirit Awakeners in Lunshan City, and finally to the Silver Dome City, including his parents, everyone's forehead showed the Death Butterfly! !

This death-omen butterfly is like a curse, branded on all of humanity.

This made Wu Hen feel an unprecedented fear, and with every second and minute that passed, the fear was increasing!

destruction!!
All of humanity was destroyed! ! The final fate of their homeland was the same as that of the Hao Clan Ark, completely destroyed, without even a trace of human residue left.

It's like it's been erased from this real world, maybe not even any data exists.

Wu Hen panicked for the first time.

He realized that after Xiaoyi swallowed the Death Butterfly, he evolved a very heaven-defying law.

But this law also brought Wu Hen a sense of suffocation and despair.

Could it be that this Chigang is really a hell furnace that cannot be climbed out of, and people can only be slowly skinned, blood drawn, bones crushed, and souls tempered? ?

Why did this happen? The escape plan was obviously perfect. What went wrong?

Even if the time element is activated, it is impossible to escape the pursuit of high-dimensional insects.

Or was it the noise he made in the Holy Sect that angered the high-dimensional insects?

Or maybe from the beginning to the end, he and Li Feng were like two ridiculous little goldfish in a fish tank, trying to speculate about more complex high-dimensional life, whose behavior was totally unpredictable and irresistible.

The so-called game is nothing more than two little goldfish consuming each other's minds? ?

If these high-dimensional insects are really as powerful as the Cthulhu mythology, and are an existence that completely surpasses the human species, then the survival and destruction of humans is only in their hands, and the efforts of all mankind are nothing but a farce on the stands!
Seeing the sign of death...

What a gorgeous magical law! Wu Hen could even imagine that he could use this law to run rampant in the other dimension in the future.

But now, the Law of Death is more like a death row prisoner in prison to Wu Hen. Even if the jailer tells you the day of execution, you cannot put up the slightest resistance and can only wait for the execution when the time comes!

……

In the secret base of Ku Island, Li Feng was still waiting quietly.

The hatch slowly opened, making all kinds of metallic noises, and the young man who was full of enthusiasm just now walked in with steps like shackles and shackles. With every step he took, one could even hear the invisible heavy collision of his feet.

There was no luster in his eyes, only deep confusion and dullness after being shocked.

But his will was strong enough. He did not curl up in a corner of his home, but still came here to find a way out.

"I conquered the sea, only to discover that the world is a circle;"

"Looking up at the starry sky, I found that it was just a sticker, and there was no other life in the vast universe;"

“Exploring the virtual, we discover that the virtual is reality, and this reality is a human circle that traps us in the tank again…”

"The road to knowledge has always been so desperate and unacceptable."

"Isn't it always like this?"

“You can either stay in one circle after another, living comfortably and eventually be thrown into the slaughterhouse by the breeders, ending this meaningless life; or you can be a brave circle-breaker, disguising, forbearing, thinking, taking risks, and sacrificing heroically on the way forward, leaving behind a blood-red signpost for future generations with the same perseverance.”

"Wu Hen, you and I are the same. We don't want to be the life to be slaughtered. We all want to control our own destiny. But the road to controlling our destiny is so dark and hopeless. It can't be accomplished by scientists discovering some subversive new energy, nor can it be solved by students getting full marks in every subject. It is not possible for all mankind to gather wisdom and strength to break out of the three-dimensional cage..."

Li Feng spoke these words calmly to Wu Hen.

A few months ago, in the Tropical Pavilion, it was Wu Hen who comforted Li Feng with his calmness and composure, and ignited hope in this chief life explorer of mankind.

Now, it was Li Feng who was comforting Wu Hen, telling him that it was reasonable for him to fail on this path.

Perhaps this is not the first time that mankind has failed, and after destruction, it has returned to its original state.

In this alien wasteland, there is mechanical ascension, physical ascension, technological ascension, and many chain gates leading to the evolution of higher-dimensional life. Who can guarantee that humans have not chosen other evolutionary paths?

Zhenwu, Xiuxian, mutation, magic, Xuanli, Huasheng... Whether it is the revival of spiritual energy or the advent of mystery, even if the world evolves, will they eventually turn into dust and be buried in the core of their homeland?
As long as they dug underground, they found not only the fossils of powerful life forms that once dominated the planet, but also the ashes of countless splendid civilizations that once rose up. Ultimately, they failed.

Perhaps they were not destroyed at the hands of higher-dimensional insects, but they did not reach the holy realm of the human world, nor did they pass down the method of evolution. Instead, they made the inherited fire start from scratch, looking for a more hopeful way to survive.

Li Feng never gave up on science and technology, even when all mankind was experiencing a wave of mutation, evolution, and cultivation...

That is because Li Feng firmly believes that every path has its strengths and weaknesses.

Different people are suitable for different evolutionary paths. The alien wasteland is strange and complex, and different difficulties require different abilities to deal with.

Just like the Holy Sect, simply having strong military power does not necessarily mean they can dominate the other world. They will also become the captives of higher-dimensional life forms.

"Calm down, let's analyze it step by step."

"It's like a game of chess, and we're just about to reach a dead end."

"It doesn't mean we've lost!"

"There must be something we haven't seen yet. Find it, destroy it, and turn defeat into victory!"
