Chapter 31 Let it be destroyed!
This reason was obviously not enough to impress Scarface.

What impressed Scarface were the two giant sickles that slowly crossed in front of Dr. Hyde, emitting dark sparks.

The black marks rolling on the surface of the giant sickle silently tell their origins:
In the ancient legends of the First Age, the "Blade of the Deep" was a demonic weapon exclusively belonging to the "Lord of the Deep". It was forged with black stone from the depths of the Styx and the suffering of billions of undead souls.

According to legend, these two demon blades are specifically used to reap souls.

At this moment, Dr. Hyde is no longer the skinny and weak mad scientist with paralyzed lower body.

But the real devil.

The indifferent gaze was like an invisible devil's claw, gently scratching everyone's throat.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's clear now. Headquarters has no objection to our conducting a thorough exploration of Echo Site 232."

Dr. Hyde brandished the Deep Blade, "Let's take action! Let's find out the truth about the unknown era and return to headquarters with the seal of the new world. The real Lady Snake is there, preparing champagne and fine wine to welcome us!"

Many Black Dream members responded loudly.

Each of them looked hideous, ferocious, and ugly.

"Dr. Hyde, you can't do this!"

Amid their roars and laughter, Long Jianhuan regained some consciousness.

She seemed trapped in an unbreakable iron cage, yet she roared like a lion, still full of fighting spirit. "You don't understand the horror of Echo Land 232. You will be wiped out like the Bloodthirster Squad!"

"Thank you for the reminder, Operator Long."

Dr. Hyde bowed gracefully, "I have considered the possibility you mentioned, so I decided to set the opening procedure of the Gate of the Ancients to 'automatic opening at a fixed time'.

“Once all of us enter the Gate of the Ancients together, after three hours of extreme charging, the Gate of the Ancients will open again.

"By then, if we successfully seal the remnant souls of the old days in Echo Land No. 232 and gain an incomparably ancient and powerful force, then we will naturally be able to return to the present world and shut down the device.

"If we fail, it doesn't matter. The Ancient Gate will continue to charge, its power increasing until it explodes and the Gate can no longer be closed."

"You are crazy!"

Long Jianhuan's eyes were burning. "Once the 'Gate' explodes, the old world and the present world will completely merge together. The terrifying existence from an unknown civilization will burst into our world like a flood and a beast. The area within a hundred miles will be affected. Dawn City may even be completely swallowed by the old world!"

"That's right. This way, the Lingka Association will be unable to block the news, as they have been doing, concealing ancient secrets, monopolizing all old technologies, and hindering the development of civilization."

Dr. Hyde said calmly, "Although Dawn City is destroyed, the secret treasures from ancient times will be opened to all mankind.

"Regardless of wealth, whether children of high-ranking officials or commoners, everyone can freely learn magic, martial arts, and technology from billions of years ago. Based on their abilities, they can sign contracts with the remnants of the past and compete fairly on the same starting line.

"Our civilization will continue to compete, evolve, and grow stronger under the guidance of the ancient civilizations.

"Strong enough to strangle Doomsday by the throat, and to make the Goddess of Destruction herself tremble at our feet.

“So powerful that the stars fell for us, paving a golden road to the sea of ​​stars under our feet.

"What a wonderful future that would be, dear Operator Dragon! Don't you want to live in such a future?"

"Be careful not to play with fire and get burned!"

Long Jianhuan gritted his teeth and said, "Countless spirit masters have spent thousands of years and have yet to completely unlock the secrets of the Four Epochs. And yet the Black Dream Organization wants to accomplish what has eluded them for thousands of years in just a few decades? You are doomed to fail. You cannot prevent Doomsday. You are Doomsday!"

"If possible, we are willing to cooperate with the Alliance and spend the next millennium exploring slowly. The problem is that we are running out of time. You know, the true doomsday is approaching, and our civilization is about to face the ultimate test."

Dr. Hyde spread out his hands, which were covered with black runes, and smiled sincerely and brightly, "Civilization should continue to evolve, with each generation becoming stronger than the previous one. If we, as the most intelligent creatures on earth, are not only inferior to our ancestors from billions of years ago, but cannot even inherit the gifts of our ancestors, it only shows that we are too weak and stupid, and have no right to rule the world." Then destroy it!

"Let this incredibly weak, shameful, doomed civilization of ours be swiftly destroyed by the apocalypse!"

……

Land of Echoes No. 232.

In the world of cultivation, the Wanhun Sect.

A metal falcon soars freely in the vast sky where scarlet spores float.

Sharp jets of air were ejected from beneath the wings, stirring up the deadly air like an ancient tomb.

If you look closely, you can see two side-by-side card slots in the transparent cover behind the mechanical falcon, each containing a seal card.

The seal card on the left was shining brightly, releasing powerful spiritual energy. Outside the metal wings, there was another layer of colorful light wings, allowing it to soar at an incredible speed.

The seal card on the right stores a machine soul from the Fourth Age, endowing this cold mechanical bird with scanning, calculation, and comprehensive analysis capabilities more meticulous than humans. It allows it to form an AI array with more than a dozen companions, constantly outlining mountains, rivers, pavilions, towers, and unknown creatures.

Below the mechanical falcon, one hundred and fifty meters in front of the illusion jungle that swallowed up the Blood Thorn team, a temporary camp was built within half an hour.

Individual trenches, light and dark cross-fire points, watchtowers and command posts.

Small but complete.

An arc-shaped "minefield" with a width of more than 50 meters was deployed at the front.

Buried shallowly in the soil were hundreds of hexagonal explosives.

In order to increase the destructive power, a skill card was inserted into the homemade card slot that was roughly connected to the explosives.

When people in the Age of Heroes began to explore the mysteries of the remnant souls of the past, they soon discovered that the degree of completeness of the remnant souls varied greatly due to factors such as their strength in life and the environment they lived in.

The most complete remnant soul of the past possesses almost all the memories of his life, has independent consciousness or a logical thinking circuit that "looks like independent consciousness", has a rich skill set and a stable magnetic field. As long as it is recharged regularly, it can last for a long time, and its "lifespan" is even longer than that of a living person.

The most typical example is the first guardian spirit of the Age of Heroes, the high-level magician wearing the robe of the Star Mage.

After his first master, a former down-and-out sailor, died on the throne of the King of the Four Seas, he continued to guard the sailor family for a full five hundred years in the form of a guardian spirit.

Unfortunately, these old souls, which are almost identical to their lives except for the lack of flesh and blood, are too rare and extremely scarce.

The vast majority of residual souls have lost most of their memories and self-awareness, and their logical thinking abilities are severely flawed, like programs full of loopholes. They require their masters to constantly communicate and adjust them through contracts, perhaps hoping to awaken more memories, skills, and personalities - just like "Lin".

There are also some residual souls that have lost their independent consciousness and all the abilities they had in life, leaving only fragmented memories.

The Lingka Association named this type of residual soul "Memories".

Analyzing memories, extracting old technologies, replicating old weapons and various key equipment of the past can also provide a strong impetus for the advancement of heroic civilization.

The most severely damaged souls can hardly be called "souls". They are merely insignificant ripples left by past lives in the long river of history, which can be annihilated at any time. They have neither consciousness nor memory, and can only barely be called instincts, and can only release skills once or twice.

By sealing these residual soul ripples with cheap cards with simple patterns, they become disposable consumables - skill cards.

Behind the minefields and trenches, killing weapons and extraordinary creatures of various shapes have been summoned by their masters, suspended in the void, waiting quietly.

Waiting for the best of natural selection in different eras and different power systems to engage in an ultimate competition without rules and restrictions.
