Restricted area grave keeper

At the same time as a series of unexpected events happened on Wuzhong Slope, the latest meeting of the Council was also being held.

However, the host of this meeting is still not the core figure of Huang Lao and other members of the council that everyone expected. Fortunately, it is not the unknown boy yesterday, but Xue Hongyu who showed up yesterday.

However, this is not an unacceptable thing. On the contrary, Xue Hongyu is one of the best candidates for this meeting in everyone's imagination. This also makes many people's dissatisfaction disappear. I hope that Xue Hongyu will talk more later Two sentences.

There must be a lot of information today—this is their opinion.

After all, if you want to say which force is the most familiar with the restricted area, maybe they can't tell clearly. Both Huang Quan and the parliament have this possibility, but if you want to say which individual knows the restricted area best, then there is no doubt that it is Xue Redfish is gone.

There was more than one person who commented—Xue Hongyu was born to study the secrets of the restricted area, and she will probably dedicate her whole life to research until the day she dies.

It is worth mentioning that most of the people who said these words were superhumans with related abilities such as knowledge perception and predicting the future. Even Huang Quan's second Yan Luoyan had said similar things back then.

No one knows how they came to such a conclusion, but there is no doubt about one thing... Xue Hongyu will definitely learn more information about the restricted area in the meeting, and now that she presides over the meeting herself , The information that comes out must be very important, and it can even be said to be a very amazing secret!
Everyone is naturally looking forward to it.

However, opposite to the expectation... is the uncontrollable apprehension and despair——

After all, the information they learned yesterday was too shocking, and at the same time, the information contained in it was too disappointing. They hoped to learn some uplifting information from Xue Hongyu today.

...Although the probability of that is relatively small, even a little bit is fine.

Standing on the stage, Xue Hongyu quietly looked at the representatives from the various forces in the seats below the stage. Seeing that everyone was sitting upright, how could he not be clear about their thoughts.

The performance of the parliament in the past period of time is indeed disappointing. At least on the surface, it does seem to be doing nothing, so it has lost too much trust. As a result, the few remaining human forces are completely scattered. It is almost impossible to survive in an increasingly dangerous world.

No, it's not "difficult", it's simply impossible to survive!
What Xue Hongyu has to do is to reverse this situation.

Whether it is hope or despair, the most important thing right now is to unite the human forces as soon as possible, so as to prepare in advance to face the coming crisis——

Just as there are many terrible crises hidden in this world, the hidden strength of human beings will never be too small. She has already obtained this information from some clues... It's just that even if they are both human beings, they belong to different eras. It may not be easy to have an equal dialogue, and conflicts may even occur.

So unity is necessary if you want to protect yourself from harm. …

This is not Xue Hongyu's responsibility. What she should have to do is to stay in the laboratory day after day without worrying about these troublesome things, but considering the terrible future that the second Yan Luo said yesterday , coupled with the fact that Mr. Huang and others have not returned, she felt that she had to do something.

But to be honest, after receiving a lot of information provided by Huang Quan last night, her guess about the restricted area was indeed much clearer, but she still felt unbelievable whenever she thought of the conclusion she was about to announce.

——Because according to her original guess, this should have been completely impossible.

And once this conjecture comes true, it means...

"Everyone, I will chair this meeting this afternoon."

In the conference room, Xue Hongyu pushed her glasses, her eyes were almost completely covered by bangs, making it impossible to see her eyes clearly.

She doesn't like to let others see her eyes. The eyes are the windows through which the emotions of the soul can be revealed.

Similarly, she doesn't like to look into other people's eyes, because compared to being seen through, being able to read other people's minds is often not something to be happy about.

And perhaps because of this, Xue Hongyu often thinks back to the night when he first met the tomb guard—the other party was still harmless to humans and animals at that time, his eyes were pure and almost free of any distracting thoughts, but But she couldn't understand that guy at all.

Only when the gravekeeper stands in front of the wooden house and stares at the rows of steles, can she see the sadness in the other person's eyes that may not even be noticed by the other person himself.

Therefore, when she learned that the real gravekeeper was actually in a state of indifference, she would occasionally imagine such a thing—if the gravekeeper was in a cold and ruthless state, the moment she stared at those steles... ...What kind of expression will it be?

Facing Xue Hongyu's sudden stupefaction on the stage, everyone in the audience was not too impatient. Anyway, for them, the key to today's meeting was Xue Hongyu. The other party can't tell the information they want!

About half a minute later, Xue Hongyu came back to her senses. She didn't feel embarrassed at all, and continued, "Of course, although it's a meeting, today it's more about me. Listen, if you have any thoughts If you have doubts, please ask or add after I finish speaking, do you have any questions?"

Naturally, everyone wanted this very much, and they couldn't add anything anyway.

"I would also like to thank Huang Quan for his help in advance. The two Yan Luos provided me with a lot of information related to the restricted area last night. Otherwise, I might not have the opportunity to stand here today."

After the words were finished, everyone looked at Yan and He Shang who were sitting in the corner, and their expressions suddenly became weird, but that was all - it was obvious that they didn't have the courage to want them to have the courage to talk about Huang Quan in public.

but……

There is a sudden exchange of information between Huang Quan and the parliament. Does it mean that this is a cooperation between Huang Quan and the parliament?

Thinking about it, in the future foreseen by the second Yan Luo, both Huang Quan and the parliament are destroyed, maybe they also want to change this hopeless future...

Thinking of such a future, the hearts of everyone present suddenly became a little heavy.

While thinking about it, Xue Hongyu's voice suddenly sounded, but who knows that she didn't speak, and the sound was like thunder, and the voice exploded in everyone's ears in an instant——

"Listen to me, everyone, I already have some guesses about how the restricted area came into being and was maintained."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions instantly became serious. They are not fools, and there is no one who does not understand the profound meaning of this sentence.

"First of all, there's always been a question about the existence of restricted areas - and that's how they work."

Seeing that everyone was paying attention, Xue Hongyu said, "We all know that each restricted area can be regarded as an independent world, but there is no concept of a food chain in the restricted area. Without a food chain, there will naturally be no energy flow, so for the restricted area The question of what forms of energy are used by living things has always puzzled us."

"Don't think that this issue is not important. In fact, it is very important and can completely determine the direction of the next deduction of the restricted area."

Some people were puzzled and subconsciously wanted to ask "what is the importance of figuring out this question", but suddenly remembered what Xue Hongyu said before, so they quickly closed their mouths with interest.

However, Xue Hongyu seemed to be able to guess the doubts in their hearts, and said calmly: "Simply speaking, this is a matter of choice to decide whether to go left or right—"

"Normally, the meaning of the food chain in nature is to maintain ecological balance, and it is also the key to the continuous flow of energy, and this process is usually maintained by the relationship between eating and being eaten."

"If a closed environment wants to maintain normal, then a complete food chain must exist. Once the food chain disappears, then this environment will naturally be impossible to continue, especially in the case of no communication with the outside world. The life inside may It won't be long before he dies."

"However, we all know that there is obviously no food chain relationship in the forbidden area, because there are often only one or a few kinds of creatures there, and there is almost no relationship between them preying on each other. The only hunting object is human beings—hmm , which is surprisingly consistent.”

Everyone is thoughtful.

Having said that, Xue Hongyu paused for a moment, seeing that everyone was thinking, and then continued: "Under such circumstances, the restricted area we know is obviously not a normal ecological environment, and the energy flow there must be disordered. , In the long period of time, the creatures in the restricted area will only perish naturally - if there is no external force involved, this is their original fate."

"But it's actually not the case. A lot of information is enough to show that not only will the creatures in the restricted zone not die naturally, but a considerable part of them will survive much longer than we thought."

Everyone thought about it for a while, and it seemed to be the case—although they usually didn't have time to care about the age of the creatures in the forbidden area, they also noticed that most of the creatures in the restricted area were relatively old, giving people the feeling of corpses, which also made them mostly look at It looked terrible.

Xue Hongyu continued: "Comparing yourself, no matter how powerful a transcendent is, it is impossible to live for so long without eating or drinking, so in the absence of a food chain, it is necessary to study how the creatures in the restricted area replenish their energy. Definitely an important question."  …

"In this regard, there were two conjectures that were quickly raised and quickly rejected."

She pondered, "One is that the creatures in the restricted area are not living creatures. They are like a mechanism that is activated after being triggered. They usually remain completely silent to reduce energy consumption. They will not be activated until a human enters the restricted area. According to a fixed procedure Start the killing—it’s like a copy that is constantly refreshing, it will only start when the player enters, and the preset program is more in line with the concept of the inherent rules of the restricted area.”

"But this conjecture soon became self-defeating. In repeated explorations, there is no doubt that the creatures in the restricted area will move naturally. They are living creatures. Now that the restricted area has expanded, many restricted area creatures can run. Going outside to hunt is ample proof of that."

"The second conjecture is that the creatures in the restricted area may have some kind of direct energy-absorbing method, just like what was said in the past movies to absorb the aura of heaven and earth-and the energy in the restricted area is indeed relatively strong, and it seems that there has never been a sign of decay. At first, I found this statement quite interesting..."

"However, after trying to dissect a large number of forbidden creatures, I found that this conjecture is actually wrong. There are no similar organs that can absorb energy among different forbidden creatures, and in a large number of observation experiments, there is no such thing as Instances related to the natural absorption of energy by organisms in the restricted area."

Most of these experiments were done in the restricted area, and it was difficult for the creatures in the restricted area to be forcibly taken out of the restricted area, otherwise they would be obliterated by the rules of the restricted area, and only one corpse could be taken away.

Xue Hongyu seemed to suddenly become interested, chattering a lot of things that everyone couldn't understand and was not interested in, but he didn't say the final conclusion, which made everyone in the audience feel anxious.

But they already vaguely understood in their hearts... This conclusion must be so important that Xue Hongyu had to re-deduce his conjecture to avoid omissions.

"so……"

Finally, Xue Hongyu took a deep breath, as if he was ready to draw conclusions.

"If it cannot be explained by the normal energy flow, then there is only one possibility... that is, there may be a huge energy body in each restricted area, and it is the energy released from them that maintains the normal life of the creatures in the restricted area. need!"

"Not only that, but the reason why the restricted area has been maintained, has always been an undisturbed independent area, and even has various rules and functions, is all because of this energy body."

After finishing speaking, Xue Hongyu stopped talking and scanned the crowd around the stage, as if observing their reactions.

She didn't know what she had observed, so she said after a while, "I believe everyone is very concerned at the moment... What exactly does this huge energy body refer to?"

Her voice was unusually serious.

"As we all know, there is a banning force in the restricted area, and it is precisely because of this force that guns cannot function in the restricted area, so humans suffered a lot when they first explored the restricted area."

Xue Hongyu was silent for a moment, then said word by word, "In fact, this force is not just aimed at us, it is also a part of the dissipated energy - it is it that restricts the creatures in the restricted area. His actions acted as shackles to balance the power between us."  …

Having said that, she finally stopped being a joke, and expressed her opinion——

"Those energy bodies are not some kind of special crystals, but living creatures, powerful living creatures! They were sealed in the forbidden area for some unknown reason—no, it should be said that it was because of these powerful and powerful creatures that were sealed. Creatures, that's why the restricted area we called later appeared!"

Everyone trembled when they heard this.

Is it a powerful creature... What is Xue Hongyu referring to?
If according to her deduction, the dissipated energy of these powerful creatures is enough to support the operation of the entire restricted area, and even enable those restricted creatures to survive for a long time, then... how strong are these creatures?

The place to stand is the restricted area!It's creepy just to think about it.

Then obviously, it is impossible for s-level transcendents, because it is impossible to do this at all, and the strength of those powerful creatures should far exceed s-level...

According to everyone's knowledge, so far there seem to be few Transcendents who have broken through the S-level in the whole world. As for the most famous creature in their impression that surpassed the S-level... there is no doubt that it is the gravekeeper.

Someone couldn't bear it any longer, and asked aloud: "Dr. Xue, what kind of powerful creatures are you referring to? Since they are such powerful creatures, what kind of existence are they sealed in the restricted area? From now on, what will be used as nourishment?"

The surroundings fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes fell on Xue Hongyu.

nourishment...

Xue Hongyu likes this word because it is very appropriate.

She was silent for a long time, and finally said an answer that made everyone unbelievable.

"It's a god."

"The nourishment in the restricted area...is the gods."
