Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

【Endless everything】.

This is the stupidest word Miao Shuisheng has ever heard in his life. It is big and empty. It seems profound but is actually meaningless, because no matter what angle you consider it, that kind of thing cannot exist.

Xanthium tells everything according to his own ideas, because:

"Shui Sheng, do you know why the empire devoted all the power of civilization to launch the Great Crusade?"

Xanthium once thought about this old topic, and there are quite a few answers. It is not only due to the excessive population that requires new land to carry it, but also the need for the development of science and technology, human beings' natural yearning for the stars, and the internal affairs of the empire. The interest demands arising from the political struggle between different factions, etc...

Xanthium put forward a novel point of view:

"The Great Crusade was the Great Crusade of Mankind, but first it was the Great Crusade of the Chorus, the Great Crusade proposed by the Grand Master."

The grand leader is the Sang who came back from the dead.

Miao Shuisheng didn't have the slightest fondness for that person. "Resurrection from the dead" was too weird. Losing vital signs meant losing the soul. The loss of the soul was one-way, lost and never regained. For this world, " "Resurrection from the dead" is a false proposition, because the living body that dies and comes back to life is no longer the original individual.

Although Miao Shuisheng didn't know what method Xanthium used to resurrect Sang, he thought it must be evil.

Sang is an absolute monster.

But according to what Xiangu said, this grand commander who had come back from the dead was the same grand commander who held the highest power in the empire before his death.

How ridiculous.

Xanthium obviously didn't realize Miao Shuisheng's fragmentary thoughts, or maybe he did, but didn't care. He just thought Miao Shuisheng needed to hear what he said, so he thought it was natural for Miao Shuisheng to listen carefully.

“The fundamental purpose of the Grand Master’s expedition is to gain access to the BIOS——

The closer you are to the BIOS, the larger the area and the higher the density of the dark area, the more real the captured data will be, and the more unknown knowledge you will have, so you can summarize and analyze the true rules of the BIOS.

All the seemingly advanced high technologies that the empire has achieved in the past twenty years are due to this. "

These words answered some of the confusions that Miao Shuisheng had been deep in his heart. The empire was developing too fast, so fast that people couldn't react. It turned out that this was the root cause.

Miao Shuisheng thought again, no wonder the Choir frequently sent ascetics to the depths of the wilderness. It was because the wilderness and the dark zone bordered. The ascetics of the Choir brought back the [Forbidden Fruit] from the wilderness and obtained unknown knowledge from the [Forbidden Fruit].

After being brought to this world, this unknown knowledge entered the empire's advanced academic system controlled by the Choir, and was analyzed, quantified, copied, expanded, extended... and finally became the empire's own thing.

"But the wilderness is too dangerous, and there are too many variables, so there is no way to explore the wilderness on a large scale. It happened that the Choir got a lot of aviation technology from the [Forbidden Fruit], so the Choir turned its sights to the stars."

"The Great Expedition is the will of the Grand Master, but it is not just for his personal demands. The exploration of the starry sky is an inevitable choice for the development of human civilization. The Grand Master just proposed this idea. If other forces do not want to cooperate, this will Nothing can be done.”

"Later you know that people have done a good job in this matter. Human civilization has the ability to go beyond the galaxy, and has established a large number of colonies and outposts in the universe. The starry sky that people once saw standing on the surface of the earth is truly are connected into a chain by human hands."

From a civilized point of view, all behaviors are romanticized and epic. Even though Miao Shuisheng was mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he heard the truth.

"Unfortunately, this world is not natural, and human exploration of the world was interrupted by an inexplicable [apocalypse].

Even if we have been psychologically prepared for the "Apocalypse", and even made a lot of preparations for the "Apocalypse", when the "Apocalypse" comes, humans are still unable to resist.

Unable to resist, Shuisheng, you don’t know how desperate I felt the moment that meteor crashed onto the surface.

The pain of countless efforts being ruined is more terrible than death. "

The flesh-and-blood creature cast dim scarlet haze on Xanthium's face under the reflection of cosmic rays outside the porthole window. The cold tones of the starry sky made the scarlet even darker, and an uncontrollable feeling of loneliness emerged from him.

"I was lucky enough to seize the opportunity and come to Star Chain. I happened to come to the upper level of Star Chain because I wanted to discuss something with a minister, so I escaped the danger of being burned to ashes by meteors. Now that I think about it, like this Maybe luck is what allowed me to do this career today.”

He actually called these evil methods "career"!

Miao Shuisheng believed that Xanthium was really hopeless.

Xanthium’s voice is deep:

“As an academic, the only thing I can do is explore.”

What else does he want to explore?

Creation of flesh and blood is not the end of his experiment?

Is there anything crazier than raising such an evil thing?

Xanthium turned around and came to the side wall of the laboratory, which had been completely transformed by flesh and blood creations to form scarlet biomass.

Miao Shuisheng knew that there were dense neurons on this flesh and blood wall. These neurons were the operating panel for Xanthium to execute commands on flesh and blood creations. They were one of the central nervous systems of flesh and blood creations. They were similar to [fully developed but unavailable] Such existence as the subjective conscious brain.

Xanthium stretched out his finger and tapped lightly on the flesh and blood wall.

The flesh-and-blood wall split from the middle to both sides like a cocoon being peeled off, like opening a door. Countless dancing blood threads separated from each other in the cracks of the door, and countless bloody amaryllis flowers bloomed when they returned to both sides.

The starry sky appeared behind the flesh and blood wall. Although there was no glass to block it, the vacuum did not invade.

At the same time, Xanthium's words made Miao Shuisheng fall into an indescribable fear:

"Since carbon-based organisms are bound by rules, we need to help them step outside the rules."

The moment Xanthium's hand left the flesh-and-blood wall, the upper level of the entire space city began to collapse, breaking inch by inch in the starry sky at a not slow speed.

The largest building ever created by mankind, the greatest miracle in the history of human civilization architecture, fell apart in the starry sky!

When everything collapsed, Miao Shuisheng saw that the materials that made up the entire STR-56 space city were no longer ordinary vacuum polymer building materials. Everything had been penetrated by flesh and blood creations and turned into something between inorganic matter and New substances among organic matter——

Everything here seems to have completely turned into flesh and blood creation itself.

All matter under the control of flesh and blood creations began a new arrangement and combination in the starry sky. Countless tentacle-like flesh and blood sprouted in every corner of the space city. Blood sprouts spread like brown algae on the seabed under the deep sea in the starry sky, as if they would The starry sky becomes the sea itself——

The creation of flesh and blood transformed into an aborigine in the galaxy and sea.

The more than 20,000-story building with only skeletons began to collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was quickly re-spread above the starry sky under the illumination of cosmic rays. The blood sprouts intertwined and intertwined, forming a door of flesh and blood above the starry sky. Door!

Various cosmic rays provide energy for the door of flesh and blood, and the seeds under the flesh and blood bloom into a dense sea of ​​Lycoris flowers under the illumination of cosmic rays.

The sea of ​​amaryllis flowers, which is almost half the diameter of the entire planet, reflects the sun's rays and dyes the sea of ​​bright trees and flowers on the moon scarlet.

The outside world is turned upside down, but Xanthium and Miao Shuisheng inside the laboratory are still walking on flat ground. The reconstruction of flesh and blood creations obviously follows certain logic and rules. The organs that have been originally molded will not participate in the reconstruction process, but will only Under a more optimized structure, the functions of the organ itself are performed.

The vacuum environment around the Flesh Door has obviously disappeared, and the oxygen concentration has increased enough to allow low-level carbon-based life to breathe, so that even though there is no glass on the portholes, the people inside the portholes have not stopped breathing.

Is Xanthium's plan... about to succeed?

Miao Shuisheng was unwilling to give up. He had obviously put in so much effort... Klein and the others had obviously destroyed the generator. Where did the energy needed for such a large-scale reconstruction come from?

Energy will not be generated out of thin air, nor will it disappear out of thin air. Creatures of flesh and blood can still move even if their energy is destroyed, which shows that Xanthium has long been prepared to deal with emergencies! Does he have other energy furnaces hidden somewhere in the huge body of the flesh and blood creation?

The answer is irrelevant, because the situation before us is unstoppable.

Just when Miao Shuisheng was completely resigned to his fate, an explosion suddenly came from a distance.

There is no vacuum near the door of flesh and blood across the starry sky, the sound transmitted is very clear, and the flames that are ignited are also extremely bright——

The creation of flesh and blood was burning. This was the first time since this thing took shape.

As a "carbon-based life that has experienced perfect flesh-and-blood ascension", the flesh-and-blood creation's resistance to flames is almost maxed out, and its cells can even withstand nuclear explosion-level energy output. How could it be ignited?

Xanthium's face instantly darkened, and he walked towards the wall. The flesh and blood on the wall opened a gap filled with tentacles the moment he approached, accepting him into the wall.

Miao Shuisheng didn't know why, so he lay on the window frame of the porthole and suddenly saw a figure jumping out of the door of the Flesh Door not far away from the explosion.

By the light of the sun, Miao Shuisheng saw that the man's body was covered with rot, and his entire body was almost disintegrated. Most of the densely packed wings on his back had been burned off, and the rotten brain could clearly be seen in the incomplete head.

Is it...the grand leader? !

The grand leader, the resurrected man named Sang, was obviously attacked by some kind of force, which turned him into the ghostly appearance he is now.

Who attacked him?

Miao Shuisheng looked carefully and saw Sang holding a ball in his right hand... No, it was not a ball, but a head.

When he saw the face on his head clearly, Miao Shuisheng's pupils couldn't stop shaking——

That's William Mast!

He understood the situation in an instant——

William Mast attacked Sang and was killed by Sang with one blow!

Sang did not stay inside the door of flesh and blood, which means that William Mast has an accomplice!

At this moment, Xanthium returned to the command room, with only indifference in his tone:

"There was a small problem, but it will be resolved soon."

He glanced at Miao Shuisheng:

"Shui Sheng, stop playing around and come help."

With just this look, Miao Shuisheng, who had long been accustomed to watching Xanthium's actions, understood that Xanthium's little actions in private had been discovered by Xanthium.

Fear enveloped Miao Shuisheng in an instant, making his body weak and even a double image appeared in front of his eyes.

After Xanthium aura removed his eyes, he stared at Xanthium spp.'s back and realized that he was still alive.

'He...he didn't pursue it! '

He burst into tears of gratitude.

'I'm alive……'

For the first time, he knew how precious life was.

'I survived... I must kill him! I will never be threatened by him again! '

When the malice in his heart reached its peak, Miao Shuisheng calmed down.

He came to another console next to Xanthium and began to input program instructions into the flesh and blood creation according to Xanthium's order.

As they operated, a deafening sound of wood crashing appeared, and the door of flesh and blood became loose.

……

At this moment, under the area where Sang is.

In the completely destroyed server room, Ogami stood on the spot, with fragments of wings with thick bones scattered around her feet, holding a blood-red long knife in her hand.

The blade is surrounded by a ghostly aura, and the dark black blood flowing on the blood-red blade actually turns golden when it leaves the blade, just like the color of the holy light itself.

Ogami looked up at Sang not far away, and the huge sun became Sang's background.

He had never imagined that he would fight against this legendary being, and he had no confidence to win in this battle. Not to mention that he was only a mortal body now, and all he could rely on was the memory of previous battles. Not enough for a confrontation at all.

Fortunately, I have this knife.

Ogami looked at the embarrassed Sang in the distance and realized that she had really hurt him. Although it was with the help of William Master's sudden attack...but it was also a real injury to the legendary being. Influence.

In an unrealistic trance, Ogami's ears seemed to be ringing with Klein's last words before becoming this sword:

[After the flesh and blood creations were formed, I perceived more spiritual power. Especially after entering the top floor of the space city, I realized that the spiritual power contained in these flesh and blood creations was not the same as the spiritual power I possessed. source, but has almost identical properties.

——My idealistic power comes from this idealistic world, and the reason why this world is idealistic is because the entire world is generated by spiritual pulses. The world comes from the spirit, so what makes up the entire world is the spiritual power from [Eternal Death]. .

——The flesh and blood creation is obviously some kind of imitation of [Eternal Death], because there is no difference in any angle between the spiritual power I perceive from the flesh and blood creation and the spiritual power I can call upon.

— which means I might be able to mobilize the power of these flesh-and-blood creations. 】

[I think, maybe, Xanthium is trying to create another eternal death... Or maybe Xanthium wants more, but I can't see it anymore. 】

[We have no retreat. 】

[After invoking the power of flesh and blood creation, I was inevitably assimilated by this deformed and ugly thing. It probably won’t be long before I become a part of this thing. 】

[My consciousness has been blurred. Everything that follows needs to be completed by you. 】

[Ogami, I will become the strongest sword in your mind. 】

[You use this knife to cut off the immortality that is about to become eternal. 】
