A Colossus rushes in at the start

Chapter 232 Satellite Civilization Psionic Anomalies

The Babel bees are engaged in a large-scale collective action due to the issue of the unified civilization.

At the same time, a satellite civilization under the swarm's jurisdiction was also restless.

It's not that this civilization harbors any rebellious intentions or wants to establish a new order, but rather that abnormal situations are frequently occurring within this civilization.

The Lupu civilization, a satellite civilization that helped the swarm find the artificial universe left behind by the unified civilization.

At this time, these Lupu people were suffering from various symptoms, including auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, mental confusion, insomnia, and so on, and the suicide rate within the civilization was rising steadily.

After trying various methods to alleviate these symptoms without success, the desperate Lupu people had no choice but to turn to their ancestral civilization, the Tower of Babel bees.

The swarm immediately began spreading parasitic offspring across the various administrative planets of the Lupu civilization, allowing the entire Lupu civilization to be parasitized by the swarm's organisms.

With the physical interference of the parasitic offspring with the brain of the Lupu people, the adverse symptoms were greatly reduced, but they could not be completely eradicated.

Rabbi, who had assumed the matter would be resolved quickly, asked curiously, "Hasn't the problem over there been investigated yet?"

Microscopic Biology Report: "The brain structure of the Lupu people has long been analyzed down to the quark level, but the cause of the adverse symptoms has never been discovered."

The mastermind rabbi asked, "Aren't their psychic powers getting stronger? If you're holding onto this clue, why can't you find the reason?"

The spiritual power of the Lupu people and their various abnormal symptoms seem to be directly proportional. As time goes by, the spiritual power of each Yanglang person becomes weaker and weaker, and their symptoms also become weaker and weaker.

Rabbi and the others noticed that point as soon as they finished, so they sent the microscopic organisms to follow that clue to find the cause.

Psychic energy is released from the cerebellum of living beings, and the strength of psychic energy is determined by the structure of the cerebellum. According to the idea that Rabbi I ended, there must have been some reason for the violent alteration of the cerebellum structure of the Lupu people, which is why that series of adverse reactions occurred.

That task, if given to microscopic organisms, would be very difficult to complete.

The microscopic organism said helplessly, "That's the point that led to the discovery of the cause. There are changes in the structure of our cerebellum, but the magnitude of the changes is not small. Logically speaking, there is reason for such a weak spiritual energy enhancement phenomenon. You even believe that our cerebellum has extended into a hidden variable structure that the bee colony has not observed."

Rabbi said, "Since we have no clue, let's look for the cause in that direction. The Yanglang civilization and the Guiyi civilization have a relationship that the swarm still understands, and they can watch us perish."

The microscopic organisms responsible for treating the Lupu people reported: "The experiment to verify the hidden variable structure is regressing. You will randomly select a Lupu person's cerebellar structure regression particle combination for replication."

"If the replicated cerebellum exhibits higher psychic abilities than the replicated Lupu cerebellum, it indicates that the Lupu cerebellum structure exists, and the bee colony has detected any hidden variable structures."

"If the cloned cerebellum and the cloned Lupu cerebellum have the same strength of psionic energy, it means that the Lupu cerebellum does not have a hidden variable structure, and that direction of thinking is accurate."

After thinking for a moment, the microscopic creature added to the rabbi, "You feel that that matter has no direct connection to this matter."

Rabbi paused, then realized what the microscopic creatures meant. "He means the artificial universe the bee colony is trying to explore?"

The microscopic creature speculated: "Yes, although the normal condition of those Lupu people had already occurred when the swarm explored the Lanvasa continent, before the swarm explored this artificial universe left behind by the unified civilization, the Lupu people clearly experienced a low point in their symptoms, and the surge in collective psionic energy was much lower than it would have been later."

Another microscopic creature asked speculatively, "Could the Lupu civilization really have gradually transformed into the extinct Guiyi civilization, as some of us have speculated?"

The rabbi replied: "Yes, yes, it really will turn out that way, you know that, but you know the most important thing to do in that situation is to remain cautious and be ready to fight at any time."

"That way, even if the Lupu civilization really evolves into something else, the bee swarm can kill it immediately."

After saying that, Rabbi turned to contact Lu Shang and asked me to allocate a swarm of bee combat forces to the Lupu civilization.

……

The intelligent beings beneath the continent of Lanvasa are holding a small celebration to commemorate the arrival of the true god, who has permanently eradicated the enormous threat posed by the demon god, allowing the continent of Lanvasa to enjoy lasting peace.

During the celebrations, those in power rejoice with those at the bottom, and the weak are concerned about the rudeness of the strong. Nobles mingle among the commoners, and there is little room for such fuss.

It was the relief of surviving a catastrophe, the empathy before class distinctions, the survival of a small, devastating disaster, and the limited hope for a better future.

There are no conflicts between people, but it is necessary to resolve them today.

The true God is watching from the heavens; ruining the joy of the celebration will surely incur divine wrath.

Of course, those are all just assumptions made by the inhabitants of Lanvassa. Do the "true gods" have that much free time? We're all busy with something right now.

"They seem to be in a tough fight."

The Nephalem civilization, one of the member civilizations of the Cosmic Union, arrived before receiving the swarm's message. Observing the swarm still in a stalemate, they then transmitted the message.

Lu Shang glanced at the swarm's preparation for retreat and said, "A fierce battle? Yes, it's about to begin."

After he finished speaking, Lu Shang's instructions spread rapidly throughout the swarm network.

At the same time, massive microscopic wormholes unfolded in the artificial universe, each separated by two tucker hyperunits, densely extending from one end of the artificial universe to the other.

After a Tucker timescale, the internal information of the artificial universe was discovered by the swarm, and at the same moment, the entropy increase or decrease of the entire artificial universe approached zero.

Freezing Reincarnation - Incomplete Version!

The artificial universe of the Unity Civilization, with the all-encompassing penetration and coverage of swarm psionic energy, has evolved into a cage.

That was an incomplete version; the entropy increase was not zero, but close to zero. Therefore, matter could still move outside the artificial universe, but the speed of matter movement would become extremely fast, almost to the point of stagnation.

The purpose of using the incomplete version of Freeze Reincarnation is to investigate what exactly is ambiguously trying to prevent the swarm from delving deeper into the truth behind the demise of the Unity Civilization.

Before the swarm of bees released a massive number of microscopic organisms to investigate every tak superunit of space in the artificial universe, an anomalous spacetime distortion point was discovered in a space in the central region of the artificial universe.

After several attempts, it was finally determined that it was a complex spatial interlayer.

The spatial interlayer is no bigger than an ant egg. If it were like the bee swarm in the Tower of Babel, searching every inch of the man-made universe, it would be really difficult to find that hidden spatial interlayer.

Just as Lu Shang was about to have the planetary creatures gather their spiritual energy to open a rift for the microscopic creatures to retreat into the spatial interlayer, he was stopped by the Nephalem civilization, one of the member civilizations of the Cosmic Union.

"Wait a minute, that structure is correct. Forcibly breaking it open will destroy the things outside."

Lu Shangyi asked, "Does he know what kind of technology that is?"

The Nephalem civilization replied, "Space-time recombination technology—you once used that technology to make a technology trade with the Unity Civilization."

"The distorted spacetime inside is an integral part of the internal things. The entire structure is composed entirely of spacetime and is mixed with matter. To obtain something broken, you need to unfold it again along the folds."

"You handle that."

Since the Nephalem civilization took the initiative to resolve the issue, the Hive was happy to be nervous and entrusted the matter of the spatial interlayer to them.

"Is it easy? Is there anything I can help you with?" Yang Langyong asked.

The single-civilization Nefer replied: "It was only folded a little over 700 million times, which is a very simple structure. It should be something that the unified civilization completed in a hurry. It will be able to unfold in a moment."

Taking advantage of the free time, Lu Shang sent inquiry messages to the various member civilizations of the Cosmic Union, as well as the Planck Intelligence.

"Have you made any new discoveries here?"

"Any minor discoveries? We just found a few zero-dimensional spacetime bubbles used for confinement under the membrane of the universe. Outside those zero-dimensional spacetime bubbles, we found beings that resembled weak psionic energy. That universe is very likely a testing ground for a unified civilization," Planck explained his discovery.

The Cosmic Union replied: "You tracked down the light escaping from outer space and confirmed that the Unity Civilization has designated the current universe as a long-term resident universe, which seems to be outside of our universe."

"The speculation that that universe was a testing ground for the Unity Civilization should have some minor deviations."

Lu Shang frowned slightly. It turned out that the most useless clue at hand was the "obstacle" that the swarm was currently encountering, trapped in the spatial interlayer at the center of the artificial universe.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Shang instructed the bee swarm to send a message to Planck.

"Can you ask me something?"

Planck: "What does he want to know?"

Before Planck could refuse, Lu Shang asked, "Has he been in contact with Ultimate Destruction?"

Planck remained silent for a moment before answering, "...I had contact with him once."

Lu Shang's eyes lit up immediately. That was the intelligence I wanted. There was just too much information about Ultimate Destruction. All I knew was whether there was any possibility of peace between the other side and the swarm. If they met, it would be war.

Lu Shang had spent a great deal of effort trying to understand the ultimate destruction.

"Oh? Is there anything missing?" Lu Shang hurriedly asked.

Planck was lost in memories. He did not immediately answer Lu Shang's question, but instead recounted the story as he recalled it, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes murky, like an old man telling a story to his predecessor.

"You were destroyed the instant you made contact, in the slightest possible way, and you said it was good," Planck said.

"...How come he can still communicate with you now? What's going on?" The Babel bees were somewhat bewildered.
