Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 219 Human Weakness
Although Xie Shen didn't know the reason, Li Xiu had to find out the cause of this problem.

But after thinking for a moment, he told Abbott the question truthfully.

The latter smiled and explained: "Why else? You should know the answer to this question even without me telling you, right?"

Xie Shen followed the other party's words and said, "The reason is that most of the agents have been transformed into ascenders?"

"good."

Albert nodded and said, "In addition to being able to absorb the black mist without limit and freely travel through the subspace, the Ascendants also have various other benefits."

"so."

He persuaded Xie Shen, "How about it? Friend, are you interested in becoming one of the ascenders?"

"Although before you become an ascender, you need to disperse all your cultivation and suppress your realm to below the Golden Core Stage."

"But your spiritual consciousness can be preserved."

"In this way, even if you lose your original cultivation after becoming an ascender, you can quickly cultivate back with the blessing of your spiritual consciousness."

Just as Albert was chattering and trying to persuade Xie Shen to surrender.

Li Xiu's voice came from the combat power detector, "Don't listen to his nonsense for now. He keeps talking there because he wants to delay you as much as possible, so as to buy time for the agents to arrive."

Hearing this, Xie Shen used the method of transmitting sound into secrets to reply: "I am actually clear about what you said."

“But the problem is.”

He said helplessly: "Even if I know that the other party is stalling for time, what can I do?"

"Can't you use your virtualization ability to escape?" Li Xiu tried to ask: "I just glanced at the picture sent back by the combat power detector."

"It's not hard to see from this: although Albert is much stronger than you, the magic and supernatural powers he knows are too few."

"His attacks are almost all physical."

"So your ability to become a virtual being should be able to completely defeat him, right?"

"You're overthinking it." Xie Shen replied, "My ability to become virtual is just a special spell that exists in my cell memory."

"That is a spell, not cause and effect, or a conceptual ability."

"This spell cannot ignore everything and suppress the opponent beyond his level."

"So when I meet an opponent who is stronger than me, the Hollowization won't be very useful."

Xie Shen gave an example: "For example, when Albert threw a punch at me just now, I took the opportunity to use my ability to become a virtual being."

"But in the end, the punch still hit me."

"no way."

"When one's strength reaches a certain level, all magic and supernatural powers will be ineffective."

"In that case." Seeing that Xie Shen was at his wit's end, Li Xiu suddenly asked him, "I once entered the shared library and obtained an incredible item from it. You should still remember this, right?"

"I remember." Xie Shen followed up by saying, "At that time, you also said that since that incredible object involved time and cause and effect, if it was easily displayed, it would likely cause various logical paradoxes. So, you never told us what the object you got was."

Li Xiu continued, "I didn't take out that item before because it's not time to use it yet."

“But now it’s time to bring it out.”

"I plan to use that item to help you escape from Green Snow Star."

"But," Li Xiu added, "Before you use it, I have to tell you about the side effects of that item."

"You go ahead." Xie Shen responded, and then hurriedly urged, "You'd better hurry up."

"Because at this moment, I can already feel a slight fluctuation in space coming from the subspace."

"The appearance of that slight space fluctuation means that the Agent's starship will soon arrive at Green Snow Star."

"We are running out of time."

"I understand." Li Xiu said quickly: "The item I obtained from the shared library is a door that can affect time and cause and effect."

"This door has no name."

"Consider this door as having causal-level capabilities, capable of affecting past, future, and even existing reality."

"So, to prevent some unpredictable changes in that door."

"After I got the door, I never dared to give it a random name."

A dignified Li Xiu, was so afraid of that mysterious door that he didn't even dare to give it a name?

After hearing this, Xie Shen asked curiously: "So what is the specific function of that door?"

Li Xiu described: "The first effect of that door is what I call 'inevitability'."

"What do you mean?" Xie Shen asked.

Li Xiu said: "Anyone who opens the door will definitely go to the other side of the door regardless of everything, and nothing can stop this behavior from happening. Even the entire universe will help to facilitate the event of 'entering the door'."

this.
Xie Shen didn't quite understand: "Can you be more specific?"

Li Xiu gave an example: "For example, if you saw the door and Albert wanted to stop you, then all the actions he took to stop you would be equivalent to going against the entire universe."

"Like, when he tried to kill you."

"In order to help you enter that door, the universe uses randomly generated meteorites or even asteroids to directly hit him."

"Moreover, the appearance of those meteorites or asteroids is completely a natural phenomenon, not the work of mysterious forces."

"What if even an asteroid impact can't kill Albert?" Xie Shen suddenly asked after hearing this.

Li Xiu said: "If he fails to kill him, then the disaster he will face will become infinitely more dangerous."

"For example, a small natural black hole will appear directly at his location."

"Or some other extremely rare phenomenon."

Fine
After hearing this, Xie Shen showed a thoughtful expression and asked, "So, what will happen to me after I enter that door?"

Li Xiu said: "After entering the other side of that door, the time and space you are currently in will undergo uncontrollable changes."

"This change will help you escape from the planet you are currently on."

Time and space?

Xie Shen said cautiously: "The change in space is easy to understand. It's nothing more than being randomly teleported."

"But what about the time change?"

"There are two possibilities for time changes," Li Xiu explained. "The first possibility is that you will travel to the past."

"Of course."

"Since time is irreversible, after you travel to the past, you will most likely not be able to touch anything from the past."

“And there’s no way to communicate with people from the past.”

"If I can't touch anything, then I'll be like a ghost, right?" Xie Shen frowned and said, "What's the difference between me being dead and then?"

Li Xiu said: "If you travel to the past timeline, it is not that far away from now."

"For example, today is 6294 AD, and you traveled to 6292 AD."

"That is, two years ago."

"Then you just need to wait quietly for two years, and your body will be able to reconnect with the current timeline."

"Then you'll be able to touch everything in the world again and communicate normally with other people."

interesting.

Xie Shen asked again: "What if I traveled to a long time ago? For example, 10000 BC."

"To live from that time to the present year 6294 AD, I would need to live for more than 16000 years."

"But that's obviously not possible."

"So do you have a plan for this situation?"

"Of course." Li Xiu said without hesitation: "Remember before, you were dragged to the Earth around 2000 AD by the indescribable creature'dream'?"

"I remember." Xie Shen said thoughtfully, "You used a 'time machine' to synchronize the past with the future, and successfully pulled my consciousness back."

"so."

Xie Shen followed this line of thought and said, "If I really traveled back to more than 10000 years before Christ, would you still plan to use the same trick and pull me back with that time machine?"

"Correct answer." Li Xiu responded.

"What about the future?" Xie Shen asked again: "If I accidentally get teleported to a point in the future, how are you going to get me back?"

"Then I am powerless." Li Xiu explained: "In the material world, time is irreversible." "So once a person travels back to the past, it must be his consciousness that returns to the past, not his entity in the material world."

"So I can use the time machine to bring you back from the past."

"Because what I pulled back was just your consciousness, it's not that difficult."

"But traveling to the future is different."

Li Xiu explained: "Because in the material world, time can be accelerated and people can travel to the future."

“This is a truly permanent and irreversible journey.”

"So once you're really sent to the future, you may never be able to come back."

"This..." Xie Shen thought for a moment and said, "Do I have any other choice?"

"No."

There was no trace of emotion in Li Xiu's words.

He calmly analyzed, "Because you were hit by the 'Flesh and Blood Curse', when you encounter danger, you can't even commit suicide."

"So, once the agents really come to this planet, once you really fall into their hands."

"The consequences would be disastrous."

“You don’t really have a choice.”

"Okay then!" Since Li Xiu said so, Xie Shen, who was desperate, could only accept that only option.

He decisively said to Li Xiu: "Hurry up and pass the door to me through the Divine Cauldron. I will use the door to leave Green Snow Star."

"If we delay any longer, the agents will probably arrive soon."

"By then it will be too late."

"Okay." Li Xiu responded very quickly from the combat power detector: "I'll deliver the door to you right away."

"As for the nine starships on standby outside Green Snow Star, I will order them all to return later."

"So we have to give up Green Snow Star?" Xie Shen said unwillingly after hearing this.

"It doesn't matter."

Li Xiu said calmly: "In the planning of the Great Expedition, Green Snow Planet is just one of the most insignificant planets among the countless planets that are about to be conquered."

"Even if we fail to take it down, it won't matter in the overall situation."

"Though things haven't been going smoothly on your end these days."

"But Deng Bin and Yi Yuankui easily conquered the civilizations on the two planets with overwhelming force."

"So you don't need to worry at all that the progress of the Great Crusade will be affected."

While Xie Shen was talking to Li Xiu, his hands never stopped moving.

After only a few words, he had taken out the Shendao Ding from the storage bag on his waist.

As a very small amount of black mist was transferred into the cauldron, a wooden door that looked ordinary and even a little shabby appeared out of thin air in front of Xie Shen.

Xie Shen originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that before Albert could react, he would jump into the wooden door.

Never thought about it.

Albert's speed was so fast that it was unbelievable.

Even though he realized it later, and even though the distance between him and the wooden door was relatively farther, he still relied on his powerful strength to rush to the wooden door before Xie Shen.

After a second, Xie Shen took a step back and arrived in front of the wooden door.

Seeing that Xie Shen was about to escape through the wooden door, Albert didn't think twice and decisively punched Xie Shen, sending him hundreds of meters away.

'Boom'!
With a loud bang, Xie Shen flew backwards from his original position and knocked down a building behind him.

The violent collision made his eyes go black and all he could hear was a roar in his head.

Fortunately, Xie Shen has the blessing of the flesh and blood curse.

He only lay on the ground for less than a second before he struggled to stand up from the ruins of the building with his powerful recovery ability.

Can see:

To prevent Xie Shen from escaping, Albert was pounding the wooden door frantically with his fists.

Because Albert's strength was so great, when he punched the wooden door with his fists, there were waves of shock waves mixed with scorching heat, which were spreading outward with him and the wooden door as the center, accompanied by continuous air explosions.

The noise was so loud that people far away mistakenly believed that the military was dropping bombs on the area.

Although Albert tried his best to destroy the wooden door.

But no matter how hard he tried, he could not get even a speck of sawdust off the wooden door.

Seeing that the wooden door could not be destroyed by physical attacks, Albert realized its value.

He turned to look at Xie Shen and asked, "What is this wooden door of yours used for?"

Xie Shen didn't say anything, but just stared at the wooden door in the distance, as if he was looking for an opportunity to sprint in.

But Albert grinned and said, "You really want to go in through the door, right? I want to see where the other side of this door leads to."

"If you let me through, I promise to kill all the people over there."

"I won't leave any for you."

As he said that, Albert suddenly pulled the wooden door open from the outside to the inside.

"It's done!"

Inside the combat power detector.

Just as Albert was about to open the wooden door, Li Xiu's voice rang out again: "Based on my psychological profile of Albert, I can infer that after you take the wooden door out of the storage bag, Albert will most likely open it."

“It’s determined by his character.”

"In the end, everything turned out just as I expected."

"Albert really did what he did and opened the wooden door."

“He got hit.”

In the ruins of the building.

Xie Shen, who was shrouded in smoke and dust, showed an expression of sudden enlightenment and said: "So from the beginning, you never thought of asking me to escape from that wooden door. Your real purpose is to tempt Albert to open the door on his own initiative?"

"That's not true."

Li Xiu explained: "Before proposing this solution, I simulated two possible outcomes."

"The first result is that you took advantage of Albert's unpreparedness and quickly escaped into the wooden door, and then teleported away along with the wooden door."

"If this is the result, then all plans can be carried out according to what I said before."

“As for the second outcome”

Li Xiu continued: "That's what you see now."

"Based on my psychological profile of Albert, I am 80% sure that after he has snatched your wooden door, he will definitely try his best to open it and take a look inside."

“The reason is”

Li Xiu explained: "Albert is a talkative person who likes to express himself. You can tell at a glance that he is a self-centered person."

"Such people can easily fall into the trap of preconceived ideas."

"For example, in Albert's opinion, the wooden door you took out was simply a wooden door used for escape, and it was suspected to have a teleportation function."

"As long as he thinks this way, driven by his self-righteous character, he will selectively ignore the risks that may exist in the process of opening the door."

"This..." Xie Shen was surprised after hearing this: "You can even analyze these? And how did you calculate the 80% certainty?"

"Heh." Li Xiu gave a very forced laugh.

He explained in an enigmatic way: "Everyone has some weaknesses in their human nature."

"Unless you are a robot, or like me, a special human who has abandoned almost all emotions."

"Otherwise, no matter how high your cultivation level is, you will not be able to get rid of your own human weaknesses."

In Danqiu City.

Under the gazes of countless onlookers and captured by countless media cameras, after Albert opened the wooden door, he suddenly became like a madman.

He stared at the "scenery" on the other side of the wooden door, as if he saw the most wonderful thing in the world.

Just like that, he was attracted by the "scenery" behind the door and entered the wooden door uncontrollably.
