Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 111 The catastrophe is coming
"65 light years away?" Xie Shen asked in confusion, "Shouldn't it take a full 130 years to go back and forth?"

"How come you've already received a reply after only 65 years?"

"Because the life forms in the Aldebaran star system are suspected to have mastered the technology of time-space transmission." Li Xiu replied: "It took us 65 years to send electromagnetic waves over."

"But it only took a month for the electromagnetic waves from Aldebaran to reach us."

"We are now trying to decipher Aldebaran's electromagnetic waves."

"Perhaps, we can find time-space teleportation technology from it later."

"Time and space teleportation?" Xie Shen was stunned when he heard this and said, "Doesn't that mean that we can travel across the stars in the future?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Li Xiu replied: "But."

"Even if we really find the technology to teleport from the electromagnetic waves, it will take at least a hundred years to master it."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Li Xiu explained: "Climbing the technology tree is like building a building. Even if you have the blueprints for the 100th floor in advance, you still have to start from the first floor."

“A loft in the sky is not realistic.”

the end.

Li Xiu finally asked, "Regarding your cultivation, how is your situation now? Have you found a way to break through?"

“Still no.” Xie Shen smiled bitterly: “If I remember correctly, I should have broken through to the Golden Core Stage in 6165.”

“That was two years before the Black Buddha appeared.”

"Time flies."

"Until now, I never thought that I have been stuck in the Jindan stage for 67 years."

"Ugh!"

Seeing Xie Shen sigh, Li Xiu was speechless.

He stared at the chessboard in front of him and finally said, "East five, South nine."

The points on the Go board reported by Li Xiubao.

After his reminder, Deng Bin felt his eyes light up and he quickly placed the white piece at the corresponding position as he was told.

next second.

The white square, which was originally in danger, was completely revived by Li Xiu's magic move.

Xie Shen, who was holding the black pieces, was unhappy now: "Li Xiu, what do you mean? A true gentleman watches chess without saying a word, don't you understand?"

Li Xiu knew he was in the wrong.

He said nothing more and left the paradise without looking back.
...

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, another ten years passed.

Perhaps it was the excessive activity of humans on the surface that attracted the attention of unspeakable creatures.

There could also be some other reasons.

In March 6242 AD, an unknown life form called "Flying Snake" suddenly appeared above the earth without any warning.

For this purpose, Li Xiu once again came to the paradise and found Deng Bin and Xie Shen.

"This is the tenth unknown life form that has been discovered so far."

He patiently introduced: "Its number is Unknown Life Form 010."

"Just like its name, the flying snake has wings on its back."

“It can fly.”

"Flying snakes usually only move in the sky and will actively attack any human within 1000 meters of them."

"Flying snakes can spray an acid that can corrode metal, so even spaceships and airplanes can't stop the attack of flying snakes."

"Of course."

Li Xiu suddenly added: "When a spacecraft is flying, it usually rises to the Earth's orbit, which is outer space, so the impact is not that big."

“It’s mainly the airplane.”

"Without airplanes, it will become a big problem for ordinary people in various settlements to travel."

Finally, Li Xiu added: "Then the transportation of materials will not be affected. After all, we have storage bags and drones."

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.

Not long after the unknown life form flying snake appeared, another unknown life form called Siren appeared in the Pacific Ocean.

The Siren doesn't have any special abilities, it's just extremely huge.

But that's enough.

Almost every ship passing by it would fall into its clutches, without exception.

At first, only one or two sirens could be seen occasionally in the deep sea.

But as time went on, the number of sirens gradually became more and more numerous, so that humans could no longer go out to sea by ship.

The Kraken, the Flying Serpent, the Thalamus Core, and the Silver Monster.

These four types of monsters responded to each other, wreaking havoc on the sea, land and air, blocking almost all modes of travel for humans.

These monsters are not very powerful.

Just send a team of modified soldiers or a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage to easily kill them.

But their strength lies in their endless numbers.

No matter how many monsters are destroyed, after a period of time, new monsters will inevitably invade the real world from the inner world.

Everything started to go wrong.
...

The emergence of new unknown life forms seems to be some kind of signal.

In March of the following year, the "land of flesh and blood" on the Antarctic continent began to spread outward like crazy.

at the same time.

The black vortex left behind after the tower prison was knocked down also began to emit black mist continuously.

These black fogs gathered above various settlements, forming countless "black fog aggregates".

The black fog aggregates were also the prototypes of the black Buddha. So if nothing unexpected happened, within half a month at most, all the black fog aggregates would be transformed into black Buddhas.

By then.

Except for the City of Hope guarded by Deng Bin, Xie Shen and Quan Shan, no other human settlements would be spared.

The golden age of mankind is over.

A new catastrophe is coming
...

Inside the Hope City Council Hall.

Sitting on the main seat, Li Xiu held his forehead with his hand, looking exhausted.

It looks like he hasn't had a good rest in the past few days.

He looked around.

Xie Shen, Deng Bin, Quan Shan, Zhuge Fu, Chao Jing and other management members have arrived in the hall one after another.

So he spoke weakly: "Yang Xiang, tell everyone the general situation of each settlement now!"

"Ah."

After Yang Xiang responded, she stared at the terminal on her wrist and said, "Including the Paradise Settlement, there are currently more than 50 human settlements, and nearly 30 of them have experienced demonstrations and riots of varying sizes."

"Most of these rioters want to migrate to Hope City for refuge, or take a spaceship to hide in the space station."

“But the problem is.”

Yang Xiang said with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "The total population of Hope City has now reached a full 400 million."

"The total area of ​​Hope City is less than 40 square kilometers."

"Even if we take into account the residential buildings, the average living area per person is only about 10 square meters."

"And food."

Yang Xiang continued, "Hope City cannot be self-sufficient in food, so it has always relied on supplies from other settlements."

"Now that the rest of the settlements are about to fall, there will definitely not be enough food in Hope City in the future."

"In short, the population of this city really can't be increased any further."

in the hall.

After Yang Xiang finished her narration, Li Xiu said, "It is to be expected that there will be unrest in various settlements."

“But as management, we are really powerless to do anything about the current situation.”

"So I decided to abandon all human settlements except Hope City and let them fend for themselves."

As he spoke, Li Xiu suddenly glanced at everyone present.

He said calmly, "So, do you have a better solution? If so, feel free to bring it up. Don't be too shy."

No one responded.

Faced with the hundreds and thousands of black Buddhas that are about to appear, no one can come up with a truly perfect countermeasure.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Xiu continued: "Although relying on Xie Shen, Quan Shan, and Deng Bin, we can barely save Hope City."

"But staying in one city and struggling to survive is definitely not a long-term solution."

“We have to take the initiative.”

"so."

Having said that, Li Xiu shifted his gaze to Deng Bin and Xie Shen.

He said to the two of them, "I plan to let the two of you enter the world where the pseudo-people are through the black vortex."

"Entered the black vortex?" Deng Bin was stunned when he heard this and said, "Isn't it that there is no return from the vortex?"

"Several people who jumped into the whirlpool before didn't come back alive."

"Even resurrection spells can't bring them back to life."

Deng Bin said reluctantly: "You want me and Xie Shen to go in and take risks. Isn't this inappropriate?"

Li Xiu replied expressionlessly: "Do you remember the electromagnetic waves I received from the Aldebaran star system before?"

"Last year."

"My team has successfully deciphered and mastered the space-time transmission technology from the electromagnetic waves."

"Of course."

Li Xiu added: "I say I have mastered it, but I have only understood the basics."

"With the new space-time teleportation technology I have mastered, I made some minor modifications to a black vortex in Hope City."

"Now, our people have been able to pass through the black vortex and enter the world where the pseudo-humans are."

"Oh my god, is this true?" Deng Bin was shocked when he heard this and said, "Why didn't you tell me about this important matter earlier?"

"I have informed you immediately."

Li Xiu replied: "I just successfully conducted an experiment yesterday, dropping a remote camera into the vortex."

"After the camera successfully transmitted the image back, I sent another cyborg soldier in."

"The cyborg stayed in the pseudo-human world for about half a day and finally came back intact."

Li Xiu finally said: "Since the entire transmission process is not dangerous..."

"I was thinking of letting you two go into the black vortex first to find out what the pseudo-human world is like."

"If we can solve this problem once and for all and wipe out the entire base of the fake people, then we can truly rest easy."

Dunbin is the kind of person who does what he thinks.

After listening to what Li Xiu said, he immediately asked impatiently: "Where is the black vortex that you modified? Otherwise, Xie Shen and I will go over and take a look now?"

"Okay, you guys come with me."

In the conference hall.

After Li Xiu responded, he took the lead and walked out of the hall.

Xie Shen, Deng Bin and the rest of the people present followed closely behind.
