Cosmic Demon

Chapter 85: Highest Martial Law, Destruction Blow (Second Update)

Star God?

Listening to Lin Yunqing's description of the embryo and childhood, Qin Shi felt inexplicably familiar.

Why is it somewhat similar to the monument panel?
"What level of life is a Star God? Born from the Earth's core, that means He has been bathed in seven thousand degree high temperatures since He was an embryo. Is He more powerful than a Super Saiyan?!"

Qin Shi was confused. He wanted to ask a question, but Lin Yunqing didn't give him a chance. He continued with a serious expression:

“The ancient history before the current new calendar can be traced back to three hundred thousand years ago, but by that time Dongxia had already rushed out of the solar system and started to form an expeditionary force.

It is no longer possible to determine the first star god that humans encountered, but one can imagine the tragic price they paid, just like a toddler who gradually grew up and fell into the hands of a top predator before he reached adulthood.

The works left by later historians used the term "bloody crying" to describe it. How humans escaped the control of the star gods remains an unsolved mystery, but they did it.

The power of science and technology created the second glory of Dongxia, and then they artificially created their own "Star God" - the Gear Emperor. "

Humans are indeed strange creatures who love to commit suicide.

The corner of Qin Shi's mouth twitched. He finally broke free from the Star God's chain. Logically, shouldn't he develop quietly, produce troops again, and accumulate strength to destroy the galaxy?

"The Gear Emperor was originally a computer called 'Mo', which processed unimportant research data. At that time, Dongxia, which was still an empire, was obsessed with the magic called 'alchemy' from top to bottom, and schools were established in various places to recruit apprentices.

Among them was a man named Juzi, who reconstructed Mo, endowing it with a mind, and ushered in a dark and turbulent era that lasted for a hundred thousand years.

Lin Yunqing's narration of this period of history is quite immersive. From ancient times to the present, kings, princes, generals, heroes and traitors have emerged one after another around the big stage of Dongxia.

But no one can compare to a technical research monk who directly created an infinitely growing electronic consciousness, causing an unprecedented catastrophe and almost causing the extinction of human carbon-based life.

This is the power of psychic energy!

Much more destructive than that caused by the God of War!

"... I've strayed off topic. Anyway, humans and machines were about to fight each other to death, and the Great Crusade, which was in full swing, was forced to stop again. Some chose to secede, while others chose to return. For an extremely long time, the galaxy was full of battlefields between the 'First Men' and the 'Iron Men' - the machines called themselves the 'Iron Men'."

Lin Yunqing is worthy of being a top student at Qiguang Hengda. He has a solid foundation in professional knowledge and can easily grasp many details. He is much better than the martial arts students who can only study the documentary about the first ten heroes and translate the autobiography of the God of War.

"As for the ending, you've seen it too. Humans are still alive and well, so it's obvious who won. The Gear Emperor, who was almost a god, was 'deposed'. After discussion and deliberation, only the 'machine soul' was retained to serve humans. Most of the knowledge related to 'mechanical ascension' was sealed up, and only 'manipulation' and 'communication' could be learned. The related 'enlightenment' and 'sublimation' were considered taboos."

Qin Shi scratched his head and looked at the mechanical dogs that he had kicked to pieces with five consecutive kicks at lightning speed:

"Teacher Lin, after all this talk, what does this have to do with Hengzhou's electronic blockade? Are you afraid that the Gear Emperor will revive, or that the remnants of the Iron People will counterattack?"

Lin Yunqing glanced sideways, as if to say how stupid you are:
"It's almost the end, why rush? Dongxia's unlimited expansion awakened one dormant star god after another, and finally they had a fight. An ancient regime with a lifespan of more than 800 thousand years, and a group of almost mythical super beings, the two sides fought to the edge of the Milky Way, and the Great Dao was about to be wiped out.

It is said that at its peak, Dongxia had a population of 400 trillion. Pay attention, classmate Qin, this is only the number of registered households counted as 'Dongxia people'.

You know, the Dongxia imperial system has a long history. Among the twenty levels of military merit titles, a fifth-level "doctor" can have thousands of slaves and tens of thousands of forced laborers, not to mention those "marquises" and "kings", who can even enslave the natives of an entire planet.

According to historical records available for reference, Dongxia, as the largest empire in the Milky Way, controls more than one million habitable planets, as well as countless resource-based and functional planets.

The history books once recorded a young nobleman of the fifteenth level, with the title of "Duke", who personally burned a purchased planet into glass just to prove his wealth. "

Qin Shi couldn't imagine what kind of means could be used to burn Hengzhou into a huge glass ball? These old Dongxia people were too arrogant, just like players who started to feel bored after playing a construction game to the late stage, maxing out the technology tree, wealth value, and population growth.

"It's a pity that the golden age is gone forever. We lost all our wealth in the fight with the Star God. After losing everything, only the old house remained. Relying on the remaining ancestral star, we tenaciously survived and established the Dongxia Republic. After nine thousand years, we barely found the thirty-two administrative planets."

Lin Yunqing clapped his hands, indicating that he was getting to the point:

"There is no winner in the war between Dongxia and the Star Gods. Dongxia is severely damaged and its strength is only one ten-thousandth of what it was before. The Star Gods are not much better. They themselves will not completely perish, but will continue to sleep.

New Dongxia's strategy is to 'contain' them. According to the different characteristics of each Star God, they will be permanently 'sealed' in the Earth's core, so that they will always remain in a juvenile state. "

Qin Shi seemed to be thinking about something, as if he understood what Lin Yunqing meant. The star god cub in the deepest part of Hengzhou's core was very sensitive to "electrons" and "energy"?

Will these things become the nutrients for Him to survive His childhood and grow upward?
"That's right. So in the 'original' setting of Dongxia's development of the new star, Hengzhou cannot use more high-tech means. It has been locked from the beginning. Even after another hundred years, there will be no iterative progress in electronic equipment and energy utilization.

The code name of the young star god in Hengzhou is "Taotie", and many people also call him "Lord of Greed". He will devour all energy and power. "

Qin Shi finally resolved the doubts in his heart. As he expected, Dongxia's great expedition was to recover the lost territory of the old empire, and the great pioneering was a means to suppress the star gods, develop new stars, and retrieve lost technologies.

"Let's get back to the previous topic. What is an electronic demon?"

He looked at Lin Yunqing. Star Gods would remain asleep in their childhood and it would not be easy to wake them up as long as they were carefully controlled.

"Followers. Star Gods often like to create lower-level followers for various purposes. The electronic demon is one of them. It has no entity and can only spread through 'infection'. It is more like a virus."

Lin Yunqing pointed at the remains of the mechanical dog and said:

“If you hadn’t acted in time, once this thing had initiated electronic oscillations and pushed the signal past the peak value, all the electronic equipment in the Jiusong Port would have been infected and mutated in an instant.

This is also the terrifying thing about the electronic demon, which causes a large number of facilities to be paralyzed and destroys order extremely quickly.

The explosion that occurred in the Old Factory Street released an electronic demon. I have seen some highly confidential videos. Any high-energy weapon or high-tech equipment, once infected, will go berserk and indiscriminately attack all organic life. "

Qin Shi's eyes gradually became solemn, because according to Lin Yunqing's statement, the "pathogen" that actually carried the "electronic demon virus" was not under the control of the inspection department.

"I've talked to Lao Chen. He thinks it's necessary to impose the highest level of martial law on the eastern suburbs of Dangyang, and to apply for... a strike when the situation deteriorates beyond redemption."

Chen Yun's face was as gloomy as water, without any relief at all. Once this decision was implemented, it would mean playing the role of executioner and butcher.

"We must find the person! Cut off the source! The electronic demon's form is not complete. Judging from the size of the force field left at the scene, it seems very weak. How did that bastard Qin Lihao do it!"

Chen Yun kept cursing and didn't care about maintaining her temperament and image.

"Sister Yun..."

Qin Shi tapped his temple, as if activating some kind of switch, and then said:

“I seem to be able to trace the path of the pathogen.”
