Chapter 373 Cities
"Deep into the forest?"

Hearing Wang Jing's words, Chen Fan's brows immediately frowned.

He hurriedly called out to Xu Huai, who was about to go deeper into the forest, "Xu Huai, wait a moment."

Seeing this, Wang Jing stopped and gave Chen Fan a confused look.

"Chen Fan, what are you doing..."

"Academician Wang, you haven't carried out many investigation missions, so you don't know much about the situation in this universe." Chen Fan looked solemn. "If I'm not mistaken, you should want to use these phantoms to study information interference technology, right?"

There was nothing to hide about this intention, so Wang Jing agreed generously: "Of course!"

"Chen Fan, you should know that for the current Human Union, the importance of information interference technology is absolutely ranked first!"

"Only by mastering the theory of material informatization can the Human Union be qualified to compete with broadcast civilization."

Chen Fan nodded solemnly: "Academician Wang, I suggest you don't rush."

"Based on my previous investigation experience..."

"It's best to be careful when conducting an investigation mission in this cosmic bubble."

As he spoke, Chen Fan glanced calmly at the shadow that passed by him and asked Xu Huai, "Is there any danger in the forest?"

"Danger?"

Xu Huai shook his head subconsciously: "Have you forgotten? Apart from various plants, there are only us Varela people on this planet."

"But the Central Council is considering launching a biological research project. I heard from the Councillor that the rebels back then kept a lot of genetic samples of plants and animals. Maybe after a while, this planet will become lively..."

Speaking of Varela Star, Xu Huai's words suddenly became more frequent.

Shadows passed by Xu Huai from behind. In the flickering fluorescent light, the girl, who was wearing a purple-gold robe and had always maintained a serious expression in front of everyone, finally revealed a longing smile.

Looking at Xu Huai's slightly curved eyes, Chen Fan couldn't help but feel a little sad.

At this moment, he finally realized where the vague sense of disharmony in his heart came from.

Not only Chen Fan, but also Isa and Gao Yuan who were following Chen Fan felt a little touched.

Chen Fan did not interrupt Xu Huai's words, but just listened to her narration silently - from the biological research project that was about to start, to the reclamation and planning of the cities around Xinghui City, the smile in Xu Huai's eyes gradually became more intense.

Suddenly, Xu Huai seemed to realize something. He paused and the smile that appeared on his face involuntarily quickly disappeared: "Sorry, I..."

"It's okay." Before Chen Fan could say anything, Wang Jing smiled and waved her hand. "The history of a civilization's development is worth listening to carefully, no matter how powerful it is."

"Besides...I like to hear these, too."

Hearing this, the apologetic look on Xu Huai's face lessened a bit.

Chen Fan cleared his throat and brought the topic back to the topic: "Xu Huai, you may have misunderstood what I meant."

"When I say danger, I don't mean biological danger."

"I mean... did the exploration team sent by the Central Council encounter any abnormalities?"

A blush suddenly appeared on Xu Huai's face. Obviously, she also realized that she had made a big joke.

Of course, this is actually inevitable - unlike Chen Fan, what she thinks about every day now is the development of Xinghui City and Varela civilization, so there will naturally be significant differences in her way of thinking.

"Oh...oh..."

Xu Huai responded in a low voice, with a thoughtful look in his eyes: "Abnormal situation..."

"Although those exploration teams are not under my jurisdiction, I have also heard some information."

"After leaving the Starlight Forest, many members of the exploration team became mentally ill."

"However, the initial diagnosis was that they were over-shocked. The doctor thought they were just frightened by the phantoms."

"after all……"

As he spoke, Xu Huai glanced at the huge phantom that was over two meters tall and passed through his body: "These things look like ghosts."

"This is also what ordinary people in Xinghui City think of the phantoms." Xu Huai shrugged and sighed helplessly. "Neither the Central Council nor those engineers can use science to explain the existence of these phantoms, so the ghost theory has become more and more intense. Under the outbreak of fear, the management of the Central Council has become extremely difficult."

"Sister Huai, it's normal that you can't explain it." Isa moved closer to Xu Huai, her slightly curled silver-white hair poking out from the wide hood. Under the hood, her mechanical eyes flashed with a faint azure light - perhaps because of her previous habit of wearing priest robes, Isa still likes to wear some loose clothes with huge hoods.

Compared to Xu Huai, Isa's expression was obviously much more lively: "Look, even the Human Alliance hasn't figured out the reason for the appearance of these phantoms. After all, the Varela civilization has just started. How can it be possible to figure out these profound things so quickly?"

"Yeah." Gao Yuan, who had been silent all this time, nodded in agreement.

Xu Huai smiled and subconsciously raised his hand to rub Isa's head.

On the other side, Chen Fan had fallen into deep thought.

He did not pay attention to the ghost story mentioned by Xu Huai. On the contrary, he focused on the first half of Xu Huai's sentence: "Mental disorder caused by excessive shock?"

As he said this, he turned his head and looked at Wang Jing.

Chen Fan quickly sensed what Wang Jing was thinking from her eyes: "Academician Wang, there must be something wrong here, right?"

Wang Jing nodded solemnly: "Something is wrong."

"Even if they were too frightened, it's impossible for everyone to become insane." "In my opinion, this is more like a sequelae caused by excessive fluctuations in the information entropy in the surrounding space-time."

"Unconsciously, the brain receives a large amount of scattered information in a short period of time, which leads to abnormal mental state."

Chen Fan, who had already guessed it in his mind, couldn't help but sigh.

It’s the problem of information interference again!
Today's Human Union has no means to block this leaked information! !

"In theory, the more developed the brain is, the stronger the impact it can withstand." Wang Jing gritted her teeth, "Compared to the Varela people, I should be able to withstand the impact."

"Besides, for the sake of the Human Alliance, even if there are certain dangers in the forest, I have to go in and investigate!"

Hearing Wang Jing say this, Chen Fan could only nod and cast a questioning look at Xu Huai: "Xu Huai, you..."

Unlike the others, Xu Huai is not his assistant, nor is he a member of the Human Union, so...

He must follow Xu Huai's personal wishes.

"Let's go."

Xu Huai smiled lightly and took the lead to walk towards the forest ahead.

……

Passing through the sparse bushes, an asphalt road appeared in the lush forest.

This is the trace of the activities of the Varela people in the past six months - whether it is industrial raw materials or building materials, this forest that has been reserved long ago is a perfect source of raw materials.

An illusory street paved with unknown materials stretched forward, overlapping the asphalt road almost perfectly.

Tall tower-like buildings are neatly arranged on both sides of this imaginary street.

On the waists of these high tower buildings of similar size and shape, there are some never-before-seen words clearly written on them.

Just like the sign of a street shop.

Different from the war-torn scene in Xinghui City, the phantom in Xinghui Forest was relatively calm, and no fierce war broke out.

of course.

Although the flames of war have not yet spread to this virtual city, the atmosphere of war has already spread throughout the city - all the pedestrians on the streets are already wearing mechanical armor.

Obviously, the residents of this "city" already knew that war was coming.

In order to accommodate and protect tall users, these tightly fitted mechanical armors are three meters high. In Chen Fan's view, these mechanical armors are just like small Gundams.

It is precisely because of these mechanical armors that Chen Fan still does not know the true appearance of these highly intelligent creatures until now.

"It looks like this is a city?"

Looking at the insubstantial but extremely clear shadows around him, Chen Fan frowned and made a guess.

"It does look a bit similar." Isa nodded, her eyes quickly scanning the surrounding buildings, trying to find out what goods these shops sell.

pity.

The doors of all the shops were tightly closed, and Isa's idea was dashed.

At the same time, the holographic interface from Yi automatically popped up in front of his eyes.

[This machine searched the database and found no text with a similar structure. ]

Chen Fan was not surprised by the information reported by Yibao. In other words, if these words really existed in the Human Union database, it would be a shocking change! !

He turned his head and glanced in Wang Jing's direction.

At this moment, Wang Jing has entered the research state:
Several scientific research robots were following her, busily carrying unknown high-precision probes into the forest. In front of Wang Jing, a large holographic panel suddenly appeared, with all kinds of symbols and curves that Chen Fan could not understand flashing rapidly on the panel.

Suddenly, Xu Huai, who was walking in front, stopped.

A fork in the road appeared in front of everyone - not only the real asphalt road, but also the imaginary street branched into several roads.

"What should we do next?" Chen Fan asked Xu Huai.

"Go this way."

Before Xu Huai could speak, an intellectual voice suddenly came from behind him.

Chen Fan turned his head and looked behind him, only to see Wang Jing still staring at the holographic panel in front of her, but her right hand was slightly raised, pointing a path for Chen Fan.

Chen Fan glanced at Xu Huai: "Xu Huai?"

"...Yes, it's this road." Hearing Chen Fan's voice, Xu Huai suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Wang Jing at the end of the team with admiration, "We really have to take this road."

She hesitated for a moment and asked softly, "The roads in this forest are very complicated. Do you... know the map of the Starry Forest?"

"Do not."

Wang Jing raised her head and stared at the fork in the road she had pointed out:
"The information entropy fluctuation in that direction is nearly 15 percentage points higher than in other areas."
