I became a witch, but I started the industrial revolution

They use guns only because guns are the easiest way to deal with things, but it doesn't mean they will be slaughtered once someone gets close to them.

Betty punched the monster's half body to pieces, and used the lower half as a weapon: "Fuck, disgusting thing!"

After the medical team's emergency treatment, Nia regained some consciousness and pointed to one of the passages: "That way leads to the underground laboratory. There are things we need."

"I absorbed some of the memories of that thing outside. It is very familiar with this place."

Following Nia's guidance, everyone did not delay any longer and carried her to quickly break through to the underground laboratory area.

Chapter 383 Extreme Lifeform

In the close encounter in the narrow terrain, the heavily armored warriors holding large shotguns played an extremely effective role. One spray could cover the entire passage without any blind spots and cause damage to the attacking monsters.

The monsters inside are much easier to deal with than the group of special black and purple arthropods outside the door. There is a world of difference between the two in terms of physical fitness and combat agility.

After the battle outside, everyone seemed to be able to deal with these monsters that they encountered for the first time after entering the other world with ease.

Soon they broke through to the last level.

[Ding, please show the authorization certificate. 】

Nia weakly put her hand against the verification device to tamper with the system program and said, "Apply for authorized access, number 3376532...Applicant, Ilea."

【Authorization certification passed. 】

【Welcome back, Dr. Ilea. 】

As the last gate was opened, what came into view was a densely packed cylindrical liquid tank filled with lavender liquid. All kinds of strange-looking creatures were soaked in the liquid, which were very similar to the arthropod monsters they encountered outside.

In the center of the hall there is an empty tank with a diameter of nearly 6 meters and a height of more than meters. The creatures inside have disappeared at this time.

But what was left in the laboratory was enough for them to roughly understand some of the truth about this world.

By tracing back the data of the central processing unit, the general historical events were answered.

Fifteen centuries ago, the civilization of this world had just digested the dividends brought about by the technological explosion caused by the first generation of atomic energy, but it was not sure whether it was good or bad that it experienced an invasion by an alien civilization.

However, what the outside world does not know is that during this so-called invasion, they did not actually see real aliens. Instead, they saw supply ships carrying various technical information and special mineral materials that they have not yet explored.

Since they are all "gifts", these aliens should have come with good intentions, so why are they called invaders?

Because the gifts they gave were so precise, almost every field explored by elite human scholars at the time and in which feasibility studies were being conducted for practical applications, most of the mature technical data were placed inside the spacecraft.

It seems that technology has achieved great leaps and bounds without any effort, but in fact this is not a good thing for a civilization.

When a hypothesis or a theory is constantly verified, falsified, validated, explored, and various ways are sought to move forward, the collision of thoughts will spark dazzling fireworks.

To solve problems, we must create tools to solve them, new ideas, and new systems. A wrong route does not mean that the created tools, ideas, and systems are wrong. These are actually the most valuable accumulations.

Great scientific and technological achievements may initially be insignificant products of a failed experiment, but the key is there and one day it will be discovered by future generations and shine with its own brilliance.

But a fully mature set of technical information directly omits all the steps and completes the task in one step.

It's like giving a native a laser gun. It knows how to pull the trigger, but may never be able to figure out why pulling the trigger produces a powerful beam of light.

Such a technological gap may be a loss that a civilization can never make up for, because its time has passed and there is almost no possibility of reversing the technological decline and going back to explore.

After tasting the sweetness of nuclear energy, how many people can go back and continue to study flint lighters in depth?

This is not the point. There is also a special material crystal in the supply ship. It always maintains a solid state at room temperature. After high-temperature atomization, its properties will change drastically and become a special mist.

The mist does not produce chemical reactions on plants and animals, but once it comes into contact with humans, it will have a violent effect. The subject's body will iterate at an accelerated rate and then its genes will collapse and break apart into a completely new creature, or monster, which is the origin of the white-eyed monster.

According to scientists' continuous experimental conclusions, they discovered that this mist actually has the ability to promote human evolution. As long as they do not become monsters after absorbing the mist, they will have completed the evolution and become new humans.

They have higher IQ, stronger physical fitness, and longer lifespan. The quantified data is about 5 times that of old humans. At the same time, they are immune to fog and will not be infected by fog and turn into monsters.

In particular, humans were divided into two factions. The old humans, led by the general group, believed that the gifts from aliens were like honey and arsenic, which almost locked up the possibility of continued progress in human civilization and technology.

Because most of their theoretical research is more feasible and has application-level technical data, the theoretical research field has been caught up by technology and has basically reached the point where there is no room for further progress.

In addition, theories that have not been implemented have completely lost the direction for further research, and they have lost the opportunity to continuously enrich the underlying technology and slowly break through the hierarchical iterations.

With the advent of better technological products, the old theoretical research is a pure waste of money with no returns. After they are produced, they are technologies that lag behind the times. No country's government can afford such a bottomless pit of consumption.

The new humans who have survived the evolution of the fog feel that aliens are friendly, and even that they are the gods who created the world.

The gods showed mercy to them once again and gave humans a second chance to be reborn after their birth.

As a result, the two sides broke up completely, and the high-level group headed by the old humans voted unanimously to use existing technology to create super weapons that can be used for a decisive battle, in order to give the other side a head-on blow when the aliens really arrive in the future.

They firmly believe that the aliens will come back one day and they need to reap the fruits.

The new human group is a staunch capitulationist, believing that only they, the new humans, are the darlings of the new era and that the old humans should be abandoned and submerged in the tide of the times.

The struggle and competition between the two sides is also all-round, and the new humans have an absolute advantage in this conflict.

For them, as long as they find a way to release the fog, the gods will help them distinguish between their own people and enemies.

The old human system was very powerless when faced with the fog that could quickly transform and disintegrate the structure, so it began to transform and focus on the research and development and production of large quantities of metal robots as a support, while continuously advancing the progress of the Guardian Project.

This laboratory is a third-party faction that suddenly emerged in the conflict and competition between the two sides. Although the technology provided by the aliens will cause human civilization to stagnate in future technology, human technological strength will usher in a leapfrog growth in a short period of time.

From the early days of atomic energy to the ability to conduct short space travel, they have initially acquired the ability to conduct deep exploration within the galaxy. It is precisely because of this that they discovered a high-energy fluid code-named "Extreme Source".

Jiyuan’s energy is extremely abundant, and it has a strong energy storage capacity. It is pollution-free, has a high energy burst level, and is naturally suitable for use as an energy source.

It is more gentle in nature and can also strengthen the human body to achieve the purpose of evolution. Even if it fails, it will not cause any impact on humans themselves. It can even be tried multiple times until it succeeds.

But the prerequisite for Jiyuan to transform the human body is that the concentration is sufficient.

Ordinary extraction is simple, but high-concentration essence extraction is very difficult. Its energy properties naturally cause energy-rich clusters to repel each other, so a container is needed that can gather them.

Extreme Life

This is the beginning of Ilea's tragedy.

Chapter 384 Genius Young Scientist

All the information about Ilea in the laboratory was normal, just the basic information of a talented young female scientist.

But Nia absorbed part of Ilea's memory through that tentacle and retrieved the laboratory's most confidential technical data in the central processor.

The most advanced technology of their laboratory, code-named Extreme Origin Life Form.

The term "Extreme Source Life Form" was initially used to define a new biological group. For example, in the beginning, Ilia and Simmons tried to use various animals, plants, and man-made objects as containers themselves, but in the end they all failed without exception.

None of them can serve as the core carrier to contain and restrain the extreme source energy. The carrier needs a dominant consciousness.

At that time, the old human coalition government had to push forward the construction of the decisive battle weapon guards, maintain the pressure of resource allocation for the production of a large number of robots, and integrate the voices of opposition within the old human governments in various places.

As the new humans seem to have received support from aliens and mastered the ability to transform them in a targeted manner, terrorist attacks caused by pervasive instigation have also distracted the coalition government's attention.

After the area was occupied by the monster tide and became an occupied zone, their resources became increasingly scarce. In the end, even the construction plan of the Guards began to be short of resources. The laboratory, which had not seen any technological breakthroughs, naturally became an object of abandonment.

But Simmons could not accept this result. He urgently needed a breakthrough in technology in a short period of time, so he turned his attention to human trials.

From small fights in the beginning to gradual madness later, a large number of young children with pure minds and easy to control were converted into energy states through special instruments and merged with the extreme source fluid.

However, such experiments did not receive very good feedback, and in the final stage, they all turned into ugly arthropod monsters without exception.

It was at this time that Ilea was completely disappointed with Simmons and wanted to leave. Before leaving, she gave her good friend Simmons some final advice, but was pushed into the instrument for decomposition and transformation.

Just as Simmons thought, Ilea became a true extreme source life form, and she became the master of extreme source energy.

She has an extremely high energy limit and almost infinite possibilities, but she is also extremely uncontrollable.

As the containment subject, the extreme source energy is originally a part of her body. Allowing Simmons to extract the energy smoothly is just the bait she puts out. Simmons needs a stable energy source, and the output of the source needs to be fed.

After each extraction, Simmons has to find a way to use the extreme source generated by other resources to feed Ilea, and as the intermediate carrier, Ilea can complete the control of energy.

So when the energy stored in the sealed tanks here in the experimental base was extracted from her, everything that happened afterwards became a natural progression.

During a demonstration of source extraction by Simmons to a government agent, Ilea took the opportunity to over-supply the equipment, causing it to overload, damage, and explode.

The obstruction of energy supply in the core area allowed some of the failed experiments under her guidance to break free and successfully help her escape, thus sounding the prelude to the destruction of the experiment.

"So how did she get out of this place? The air duct? Then..."

"Pah..."

The sound of liquid dripping suddenly rang in everyone's ears. The person who had just spoken in confusion suddenly shut his mouth. A large amount of gel-like fluid came out of the surrounding ventilation equipment and purification equipment pipes, and a light rain fell in the laboratory.

"Woc! What are you still standing there for? Run!!!"

"Damn it! David! I'll tear your mouth apart when I get back!"

David shrugged his shoulders, picked up Nia and started running. They really didn't know what to do with this fluid monster after the flamethrower was used up.

"Run that way! There's an emergency escape."

Nia, who was lying on David's back, was in much better condition, and she gradually digested some of Ilia's memories. This laboratory was where Ilia had worked for many years, and Nia could recall fragments of her memories just by looking at it.

The raindrops gradually gathered into monsters of various shapes and chased after the group along the route they left.

Under Nia's guidance, Betty and others did not wander around in the complex, maze-like experimental area, but rushed into the emergency evacuation passage smoothly with a clear goal.

But when they reached the end of the passage, the scene there made the team members stunned.

The end of the passage was littered with scattered skeletons. When they entered the passage, the camera at the top of the passage turned to face them:

"According to the director's signing of the non-proliferation agreement, the cleanup process has been initiated."

Then two electromagnetic machine guns that they had seen on the tracked robots before dropped from the ceiling, and everyone who saw this scene turned pale.

'My grass is so black!'

'Simmons, my sweet mother! ! ! '

Tuk-tuk-tuk...

The electromagnetically propelled projectiles came towards the crowd at an incredibly fast speed, instantly blowing up several mechas in front that had only time to protect their vulnerable head parts, and all kinds of materials flew everywhere.

However, before the mecha was completely destroyed, the people who were attacked also completed their disarmament and fell out from the back of the mecha and left in a mess.

The area of ​​the passage was blocked tightly by three mechas, so the people behind did not suffer any harm, but they also witnessed the power of electromagnetic weapons with their own eyes. In less than 3 seconds, all the covered mechas were smashed into pieces.

Various flying fragments also turned into sharp blades flying in the passage, causing secondary damage to the surroundings.

However, Betty and the others quickly thought of a countermeasure. The heavy armor with slower mobility had just been unharmed. At this time, two people each carried a heavy backpack for supplies and acted as a shield to block in front and walked out.

In the corridor less than a hundred meters long, the sniper didn't even need to aim at Ding Zhen.

Behind them, two soldiers holding sniper guns fired two accurate shots and shot down the machine gun that was constantly spewing flames at the heavily armed soldiers.
