Alien Dust

Chapter 368: Daytime God Plan

"Let's find a secluded place and hide the hovercraft. We will go to this evil town for a while." Levi said.

After putting on their equipment and holding portable weapons, a team of people stepped directly into the Fallen Flower Swamp.

After passing through the dead woods, there is a piece of relatively hard soil in front of us, and on this soil there is a fairly large town. This town seems to have survived the last century, and the overall style tends to be brick and earth, but you can also see artistic temples and stone halls, which are also covered in dust in this misty swamp.

"There are many such lost towns in our world. They not only exist in our book history, but also appear in some special landforms like mirages. So far, we don't know how they exist. They are like ghost ships on the sea, coming and going without a trace. These lost towns often gather a large number of wanderers and lost people. They look like normal people, doing what every ordinary person does in their daily life, picking food, finding fire, and looking for shelter, but most of them have lost their minds and have no souls." Levi said.

He knew that Wu Hen didn't know much about their world, and he was willing to tell him about the unusual situations he encountered.

At this time, there was a group of vagrants in front of them. They were in tattered clothes and their skin was festering. Although there were a few leaders leading them in one direction, they were still running around like headless flies.

"Maybe they just lost their homes and have nowhere to go in this foreign wasteland." Wu Hen said.

After seeing many strange and bizarre things in different dimensions, Wu Hen became even more convinced of the importance of the goddess Nuwa.

Once their homes are destroyed, they and the people in their homes will become like these people, walking on a land without any sense of belonging. Their souls cannot find peace, and only their bodies will be left wandering like zombies. They are basically only one step away from being lost.

“Most of them will gather in the ownerless lost towns, adapt to the laws there, and survive there, but these lost towns often have evil spirits active. Once they are gradually controlled by the evil spirits, or if the entire town is flooded with evil spirits at a certain stage, then this town will completely become an evil town and an evil city.” Levi said.

Speaking of this, Wu Hen realized that the first time he woke up was actually in this kind of Lost Town, and he woke up in the body of a homeless man. At that time, he was warming himself by the fire in a shabby house that was leaking air from all sides. The town was basically full of lost people, and the beautiful symbiotic evil girl was a high-level evil spirit!
High-level evil spirits have powerful camouflage abilities and can move among the crowd like normal people.

Low-level evil spirits are similar to monsters and beasts. They possess a little intelligence, but their brains are basically filled with the most primitive desires, and filling their stomachs is their only motivation.

"Are we sure we want to go in?" Wu Hen asked, looking at the old-fashioned town in the swamp ahead.

When he first stepped into the alien wasteland, he was just the weakest life in the wasteland. Naturally, his brain had to work fast, using all available resources to fight against the powerful and terrifying evil spirits.

Even now, Wu Hen still remembers the symbiotic evil ghost with extremely horrible hearing. Even if his heart beat too fast, he would be beheaded by the other party. He was like a mortal who had strayed into the world of ghosts in the small town, walking on thin ice, and at the same time, he had to have enough courage to have a chance of survival.

However, with his current level of evolution, he no longer needs to abide by the evil spirit laws of the town. He can directly burst out his holy combat power to confront the strange evil forces inside head-on.

"Are you planning to destroy this evil town by force?" Levi said.

"Isn't it appropriate?" Wu Hen asked.

"Of course it's not appropriate. This swamp is huge. Even the Iron Eagle City has to be on full alert to prevent being dragged down by the giant dust crocodiles under the swamp. Secondly, we haven't figured out where the dark energy spring is and what form it exists in. If you directly confront the entire Evil Spirit Town, you will at most get a meaningless victory. You may even destroy the Yuanyou inside and get nothing." Levi said.

"But I have worked so hard to cultivate to my current level, and I just don't want to abide by these weird and supernatural rules that torture people." Wu Hen said.

"Your cultivation to a higher realm only makes you more tolerant of mistakes. When you make a wrong decision without a clear mind, you can make up for it with force. Believe me, as long as you release too much powerful energy and collide with this evil spirit town directly, there will definitely be more powerful predators under the swamp. Even if you are strong enough, you can still kill the guys under the swamp. How can you guarantee that there are no creatures in the deeper part of the swamp and on this land that have come here after smelling the bloody smell of the Tianmang fight? When they get here, they will find the dark energy spring. If they are not careful, the dark energy spring will leak and attract the nearby swamp living city..." Levi said.

"Hehe, I understand these principles. You don't need to be so nervous." Wu Hen smiled and was just talking.

It is exactly as Levi said.

Evolving to a higher level does not mean that the universe is invincible.

Wu Hen still clearly remembers what his aunt said. The real strong men in the Other Dimension Desert are all hidden behind the scenes. In the past, the mantis stalked the cicada, while the oriole waited behind. This was a good interpretation of the cruel law of the biological food chain. But in the Other Dimension Desert, after the oriole there was a poisonous snake, and when the poisonous snake was hunting, there was a wild monkey. Above the wild monkey there was a monkey-eating eagle, and behind the eagle there were countless pairs of eyes...

"Check your equipment and enter the Lost Town." Levi said to the team members behind him. The team members were all prison guards, and they naturally had certain combat capabilities and combat experience. Without Levi's excessive instructions, they had automatically divided into three-by-three formations and advanced into the Lost Town.

"I have a friend whom I met in an evil city. I guess she should be a citizen of your Daxuan. If I want to find her, what method should I use?" Wu Hen asked Le Wei.

"What are her characteristics?" Levi asked.

"She's very beautiful and mature. She was my mentor who helped me become the protagonist of Huangchen. Her name is Su Li, but I don't know if it's her real name." Wu Hen said.

Levi’s mouth twitched, and he said unhappily: “Let you describe her ability!”

"She seems to be the same as you, relying mainly on technological equipment, but she has clear thinking, knows the weaknesses of evil spirits, and knows how to escape from the evil place..." Wu Hen said.

"What you said is useless. If she has knowledge of higher-level laws, it means that she might be the commander of a defeated town, or the leader of Daxuan. You said that she disappeared suddenly and completely left the alien dimension like a petal. This feature does have some reference value." Le Wei explained to Wu Hen while observing the town.

The town was severely corroded by weathering. Many houses looked like rotten half cakes, and many areas on the streets were filled with mud, as if the entire town was sinking into the swamp bit by bit.

There are many wanderers and lost people inside, they are looking for something, maybe clean food, lost weapons, or the Yuanyou that can restore their minds. At the same time, they are also careful of the evil spirits that may appear at any time...

“As far as I know, there is a lineage of Nuwa among the human race. They live in the sacred tree in the form of souls. When exploring the alien wasteland, they will enter the bodies of the lost as awakeners. They mainly extradite the souls of the lost to allow them to enter a new cycle of life, and collect Yuanyou. If the friend you are talking about disappeared suddenly, you can try to inquire about the lineage of the Nuwa sacred tree. It is estimated that they are the human race there.” Levi said.

"I've been there. She's not from there, and all signs indicate that she should be from your Daxuan." Wu Hen said.

"We rarely have technology like Daxuan that suddenly goes offline," Levi said.

"But don't you also have a virtual engine? You can completely realize that the soul is in a safe place, and then remotely control a habitat to explore. Wouldn't this greatly reduce the risk?" Wu Hen asked.

"You are talking about digital life, a way to achieve immortality. Naturally, some of our Daxuan scholars are also developing in this direction, but there is a prerequisite for the full realization of this technology. The prerequisite is that our Daxuan has unified the entire universe. Only when the external equipment is ensured to be eternal and indestructible can the internal world be peaceful. Otherwise, no matter how prosperous and developed the world in the digital life is, if the main body of the equipment is destroyed, the demise of all digital life is as simple as destroying a pile of data."

"We in Daxuan have always been in the midst of war, and we are not yet strong enough to shock all the life in the wild dust. Naturally, this technology has always been buried, and it is in an awkward situation where it is useless to use but a pity to discard it."

Wu Hen chewed the air, feeling that this guy was hinting at something.

To put it bluntly, virtual immortality is theoretically achievable. Even without the advent of the alien dimension, it had already gradually developed in this direction when I was a student. Especially with the birth of intelligent AI, the process of virtual immortality has been further accelerated.

In peacetime, it can be said that this technology will be supported by countless people, especially those who hold extremely high power. When they discover that the human body has a definite upper limit, if they want to be immortal, they can only choose brain connection and transform into digital life... Although many people do not accept themselves as virtual people or digital people at all, if they cannot explore alien civilizations, find ways to extend their lifespan, and cannot break through the genetic shackles of aging, then the only channel to continue to preserve their soul consciousness is the virtual world. They have to accept it even if they cannot accept it. Moreover, as those who do not accept it grow old and die, the rest will accept this form of existence.

But the prerequisite for this immortality technology is that there is no war.

A war makes all those who have virtually achieved immortality realize the most important reality: living in the present and living freely is more important than longevity or eternal life.

Daxuan's technology must have reached the level where it is difficult to distinguish between virtual and real things long ago, but as they said, they have always been in a state of war in the Cangchu Divine Realm, and virtual technology has become the icing on the cake, not a lifesaver.

"However, when I was studying at Huilingzuo, I heard about the Daytime God Plan, which is somewhat consistent with what you said. Maybe your beautiful and mature friend is a Daytime God." Levi said.

Wu Hen immediately pricked up his ears.
