Volume 7: The Truth of the World Chapter 11 Doubt, Strategy
One word can cause a thousand waves!
When No. 2 said this, everyone else instantly knew who he was referring to. The large-scale acquisition of crystal cores was a technology beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. "Home No. 1, Shen Jin!"
At this moment, everyone's faces changed drastically. No. 3, who had entered the unprovable stage of reasoning, became energetic again. "If we continue according to this reasoning, then everything Shen Jin did after the end of the world... can be traced. The technology beyond our time and the source that has never been truly explained, why can he come up with so many high-tech items by himself? Things like [Extractor], [Compressor] and powerful extraordinary potions are not only superior to our Tianluodiwang technology, but also far higher than the world's technological level. The world is so big, there is only one such thing!"
These wallfacers have all read Shen Jin's information, because they have had a lot of contact with Home No. 1, and understanding Shen Jin is also a compulsory course for these wallfacers. After all, a lot of technology depends on Home No. 1. Currently, a set of [UU Matter Generator] and [Replicator] at the Tianluodiwang headquarters are sponsored by Home No. 1 and have been running stably, bringing great help to Tianluodiwang in scientific research, especially the items brought out from ancient ruins, which are out of print and cannot be copied by humans. There is no need to worry about damage during experiments. But with this set of replication equipment, they can perfectly replicate ancient items and provide copies for research, which is very convenient!
In addition to these, No. 1 Homeland also helped Tianluodiwang in many aspects. At this moment, many people could not accept it when they suddenly reasoned to this point. It was as if the brother who fought side by side with you suddenly became the enemy who killed your father...
The expressions of the wall-facers No. 9 and No. 10 were as if they had eaten shit. The two of them had cooperated with Homeland No. 1 on a big project. As China's largest back-up, the layout was far-reaching. The sudden news made the two of them a little confused. No. 3 continued his reasoning: "We have also studied these technologies, and we can't crack them at all. It seems that they are completely different from our original knowledge system. If we use mechanical principles to make them, he uses the energy system to make equipment. Although they are all powered by electricity, the internal structures vary greatly. I used to be very puzzled. Everyone's explanation for this is basically that his technology is inherited from ancient relics, just like the ancient relics of cultivators we currently have. It contains human technology from ancient times. So if we make a bold guess... Is this the power possessed by the ancient fifth-order extraordinary? The so-called ancient relics inheritance is just our own imagination. In fact, Homeland No. 1 has been using ancient technology openly. We are in the dark and have never realized how wrong this is!"
"And they have been collecting crystal cores for a long time. We have spent a lot of crystal cores in exchange for advanced machines and equipment from Homeland No. 1. Homeland No. 1 has almost taken in most of the crystal cores in our Tianluodiwang, and it is still going on. They have even started to purchase crystal cores from foreign organizations recently. The explanation given to the outside world is that they are researching energy technology and making extraordinary potions and equipment, but... is there really such a great demand? Recently, they have begun to look down on ordinary first- and second-order crystal cores, and are instead purchasing higher-quality third-order crystal cores. Is it because... this level of crystal cores is more helpful in restoring their energy?"
Chu Xu interrupted: "It's like this. Hu Shou said that at his level, the energy he needs to absorb is more advanced. He also uses a third-order crystal core for cultivation. Ordinary crystal cores are not of much help. High-order crystal cores not only store more energy, but also have different quality!"
No. 3 nodded. "Yes, that makes sense. As the strength of these fifth-level extraordinary beings gradually recovers, they will need more advanced crystal cores. When they fully recover their divine power, they will regain control of the world!"
The more the people present thought about it, the more reliable this inference seemed. If this was true, then everything that had happened in the world since the end of the world could be explained. All evidence pointed to Home No. 1, this mysterious place!
The cautious Wallfacer No. 7 said: "No. 3's inference is very interesting and can explain a lot. It is also self-consistent, but... it is just an inference after all. Many things may just be coincidences. Home No. 1 has provided us with so much help. We should not make a judgment based on an unconfirmed inference!"
The other wallfacers pondered deeply. The inference was very interesting, but it was not confirmed after all. No. 2 shook his head: "What a pity. If I were wiped out, everything would be clear. I don't know if there is such a mechanism to wipe out human observers. Maybe the rules they set will only destroy objects that leak information about fifth-level extraordinary people..."
No. 2 was willing to die as a testimony of his truth, but he was not given the opportunity.
No. 3 was also very regretful: "Yes, we need more evidence..."
"But Home No. 1 is highly suspicious. Everything they did is closely related to the ancient supernatural beings. Why don't we ask Home No. 1 to hand over the source of their technology? If they can provide proof of the location of the ancient ruins, they can prove their innocence!"
"Yes, this is a solution, but...what if they don't want to show it to us? Do we have to force them to do it? What if we force the good guys to rebel?"
"If you don't show it to us, it means you are guilty. This proves that No. 3's inference is correct. Now that Commander Hu Shou has reached the fourth level, we might as well take them down in one fell swoop and study them carefully. Otherwise, when these possible fifth-level extraordinary people recover their strength, we will have no way to deal with them!"
"But... they are helping our allies after all. Isn't it too much to do this? What if we don't find the ancient fifth-order extraordinary person..."
A group of Wallfacers discussed the issue, focusing on how to treat Home No. 1.
Finally, Chu Xu spoke, "Today's inferences are limited to this room and cannot be spread out. Please be sure to abide by it. Regardless of whether the inference is correct or not, as long as we can infer what may happen, it is a good thing, better than no progress at all. Next, we at least have a direction. We don't have to worry about the accuracy of the inference. We will naturally figure it out on the road of verification later!"
"Regarding how to verify... we can't do this well. We need to wait for Hu Shou to come back and have him go to Homeland No. 1 in person to find out what happened there. If we act rashly, we will only put the whole network in a passive position!"
"Our strategy remains unchanged. We will still focus on clearing the zombies across the country. We will continue to increase the import of equipment from Home No. 1 and equip our soldiers with two laser guns as soon as possible. This will double our firepower and speed up our work. This will ensure that we can complete our planned mission within the next three weeks and eliminate 90% of the zombies in China!"
"Finally, store all the crystal cores that we have harvested during this period and stop providing them to Homeland No. 1. If they ask about it, find a way to delay them and get these laser guns out!"
"above!"
In the end, Chu Xu still chose to be on guard, especially since the speed of clearing the zombie tide has accelerated recently and a large amount of crystal cores have been received. Last week, there were 100 million crystal cores!
No. 4, who studies energetics, said: "No matter what, we must store the crystal cores, because... once the zombies are eliminated, our only source of energy will be these crystal cores. If we want to create extraordinary people in the future, we will need to consume crystal cores to make potions. Once the crystal cores are used up, this world... may no longer have extraordinary people. We must make plans in advance and control the crystal cores in our own hands for the future of the country!"
Chu Xu nodded: "No. 4 is right. If the zombies in the world are really eliminated, the amount of crystal core reserves may become the key to measuring a country's hard power, just like the reserves of nuclear weapons before the end of the world. I can't imagine, if many years later, a country has no extraordinary power... How will it face the extraordinary people from other countries?"
"After this stage, we will assist neighboring countries in clearing the tide of corpses... Collect all the crystal cores and bring them here to us, leaving real wealth for our descendants and laying a good foundation for the eternal prosperity of the Chinese nation!"
Everyone present was in awe. Chu Xu's words had a grand vision. He had already thought about the future situation of mankind, laid a solid foundation for future generations, and made the greatest effort to ensure the immortality of the nation.
Wallfacer No. 8 suddenly asked, "If we reach the final stage, can we raise some zombies as a source of crystal cores?"
The zombie species is very magical. Through unknown principles, they can form energy crystal cores that have never appeared before the end of the world. These energy crystal cores are filled with energy factors with extraordinary powers.
Chu Xu heard this and his expression suddenly turned cold: "Don't leave any living zombies alive. They are a scourge. There are many parts of their genes that we haven't studied clearly. We don't know what kind of changes will happen in the future. Now that we have a chance to eliminate them, we must never give the zombies a chance to turn the tables. We can't be sinners of humanity... If there is really a country that wants to keep zombies in captivity, we will kill them without mercy!"
"The conflict between humans and zombies is natural. If we are here, they won't exist. This is a war of genocide between races. We cannot afford to be careless!"
Chu Xu spoke very seriously, and everyone else immediately understood the interests involved and never mentioned the idea of raising zombies again.
The temporary meeting in the command room was over, and everyone had a new theory in their minds, waiting for Hu Shou to come back and verify it...
Homeland No. 1 remained the same, without feeling the oppression of the coming storm. However, Shang Qian was a little puzzled. The frequency of those wall-facers from the Tianluodiwang coming to Homeland No. 1 has suddenly increased recently. "Strange... They have studied these technologies before, and they haven't come up with anything new. Could it be that the Tianluodiwang headquarters has made some new discoveries?"
However, thinking that they were not as powerful as Home No. 1, Shang Qian did not ask and let them wander around on their own. Shen Jin had a good relationship with Tianluodiwang and had been close to the Wallfacers before, so he did not suspect anything. He just kept his secret of luring the survivors from other bases to Home No. 1 a little secret to avoid being discovered...
Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing. Doing this in front of the leaders of other organizations is no different from offending your husband in front of him...
However, Tianluodiwang recently cited the lack of manpower as an excuse, saying that the crystal cores have not yet been collected and sorted, and that they are fully focused on the Hundred Regiments Campaign, and will not provide crystal cores to Home No. 1 for the time being, and will provide them after this round is over.
These did not arouse Shang Qian's vigilance. After all, Tianluodiwang often bought on credit when it was short of supplies in the past, and it was replenished later. They would only replenish more, not less.
Besides, the current national situation is very tense. At the critical moment, the extraordinary people are busy fighting, so it is understandable that they have not collected and organized the crystal cores.
The newly produced laser guns were still being shipped to Tianluodiwang in an endless stream, and everything was going as Chu Xu had planned, as if that shocking inference had never occurred.
…
In City B, Shen Jin and Sun Can were shining with colorful light, and had a bunch of buffs added to them, almost doubling their combat effectiveness. Shen Jin had recently gotten used to fighting side by side with Sun Can, because his buffs were so useful!
Once you’ve tried it, you can’t stop. It’s like taking drugs, you’re addicted!
Shen Jin roughly understood Sun Can's system positioning: an all-round auxiliary magic swordsman who can not only fight and defend, but also has full auxiliary capabilities, just like the paladin in traditional online games, an all-round player. "After all, neither of us is the kind of super strong who can shock the world with one move. We need to fight with our brains. Where is the system selector of the sword? If he is there... I guess his attack power must be unparalleled in the world. Why hasn't he shown up yet? It's so annoying!"
Sun Can said indifferently: "We should always think positively. What if... he died on the way? You should know that our system is not invincible. Problems can occur if we are not careful. If you hadn't given me the helmet with the [End] affix, I would have capsized in the gutter!"
"Where did the boat capsize?"
Sun Can: “???”
Shen Jin chuckled: "Hey, it's hard to say. It's been such a long time. If he is still alive, the glory of the system owner should be unstoppable. At least he is a hero, unless that person is abroad!"
"Just treat him as dead. The two of us combined swords will be enough to kill the zombies!"
Sun Can was quite confident. After leveling up like crazy in City B, his experience increased rapidly, and his understanding became deeper and deeper. He had already stepped half a foot into the fourth level. The same was true for Shen Jin. If he hadn't pushed himself, he wouldn't have known how good he was!
During this period, Shen Jin used his abilities in battle and was very brave!
He has copied many superpowers and has many methods to deal with. He has corresponding superpowers when dealing with any kind of zombies, just like Doraemon the Super, who can take out useful superpower food from his belly pocket at any time. Sun Can's backpack has stored a large amount of superpower food provided by Shen Jin, and he has become an all-round player. The cooperation between the two is becoming more and more tacit, and occasionally they can perform some amazing combination skills.
However, their sweet duo was about to be broken. Shen Jin looked at the horizon and saw a roc flying towards them with its wings spread, followed by a jet-like figure with a smile on his face.
“They are here too…”
