Wasteland Development Diary

"Chairman, we need to move it as soon as possible, or evacuate the people."

Shi Gandang explained, "Each alien has a unique structure and distribution of consciousness, which will change over time. I can only judge from previous alien detonation experiments that it may self-destruct at any time."

The situation is urgent.

Zhou Yi ordered Red Falcon, "Notify all residents and employees to immediately drop everything they are doing and move towards the Mushroom Forest, away from the Yalong Bay area. Have Gong Zheng and the others prepare for an emergency evacuation."

"Yes."

"Also, call Jiong He Cang and Wu Yi over."

"Yes."

The drone flew into the high sky.

The evacuation notice immediately resounded throughout the Emerald City area.

People were caught off guard, and they were guided to evacuate in a hurry amidst the panic.

Yuan Xiao stayed close to Zhou Yi's side.

She looked sharply at the outsider beside her, "Chairman, should we eliminate him? Sending such a dangerous explosive here may be an attack in itself."

Fang Qiao shuddered all over, "Mr. Zhou, you must believe me, I don't know what's going on. I only know that the cold storage alien malfunctioned, how would I know it would be like this..."

Zhou Yi remained calm, "Don't solve the problem of the person first, deal with the explosion first."

"Yes."

The Death Angel stopped talking, but still stared at the Weapon Hunter like staring at prey.

Fang Qiao was visibly sweating profusely.

Zhou Yi then activated consciousness co-frequency and inquired about Emerald City and Yalong Bay.

Between architectural lifeforms, they can perceive something from each other.

Yalong Bay said, "It is in an extremely unstable state now and may trigger a collapse-style energy burst at any time."

Emerald City also said, "Commissioner, although it is not large in size, I don't know why it is so strong... reaching A-level. If it explodes, it will cause huge damage and continuous radiation to the outside world."

The problem is very tricky.

An A-level intensity light burst bomb that could explode at any time.

When it explodes, it will increase by an order of magnitude, approaching the level of a light core body.

It is a true extinction disaster for the entire Shagang area.

There is only one way.

Zhou Yi immediately decided, "Yuan Xiao, take him to the Mushroom Forest. I want to concentrate on dealing with this explosive."

"Yes."

Strands of mycelium flew out of the girl's body, wrapping Fang Qiao into a white cocoon. The Weapon Hunter seemed to realize the power gap between the two sides and honestly did not resist.

Then she flew all the way to the Mushroom Forest area with the cocoon.

Zhou Yi first ordered Emerald City to carry the cold storage and push it into the Dead Sea.

This is to avoid outside prying.

Then Zhou Yi summoned the Poseidon and activated the Tinder Life Conversion.

A total of 100,000 light seeds were consumed, and finally, this cold storage was imprinted on his shoulder, turning into a square, silver pattern with ice crystal symbols.

Zhou Yi felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, the Annular Flow Device is still useful for architectural lifeforms on the verge of self-destruction.

At this time, the cold storage seemed to be solidified and frozen, maintaining itself in an energy-state structure.

Zhou Yi was thinking about how to deal with it next when his expression suddenly changed.

The originally still energy-state cold storage began to operate again—it was an energy-level operation, and without the constraints of a material carrier, it entered a state of frantic acceleration.

A strong burning sensation and tingling sensation occurred at the tattoo location.

Zhou Yi saw that a small piece of the silver tattoo on his shoulder was turning into black ash.

Not good!

The energy state can also detonate!

Can't wait any longer.

Zhou Yi immediately entered Emerald City.

"Take the Poseidon submarine and enter high altitude as quickly as possible."

"The detonation must be kept away from Shagang!"

"Yes, Commissioner."

Emerald City fixed the Poseidon submarine on the wall, and then rushed straight into the sky.

In the high altitude, Zhou Yi saw that more than half of the ice storage tattoo on his left shoulder had turned into shattered black ash. It was slowly expanding and spreading, like some kind of skin infection.

It was already thousands of meters above the ground.

The ice storage in the Tinder Life form completely transformed into scattered black ash.

Zhou Yi's shoulder was already smoking, as if every hair, every piece of skin was being branded by a branding iron, and the pain made his body twitch uncontrollably.

He felt a strong dizziness for a while and fell directly on his back.

His 110,000 points of health dropped to only 30,000 points left.

No.

The exploding ice storage must be thrown out!

Just as he struggled to get up, preparing to go out and use Poseidon's [Annular Light Instrument] to dismantle it, he suddenly discovered a strange thing.

The ash on his left shoulder was slowly retracting.

Along with this change, the burning sensation and soreness were receding, and the dizziness and weakness were also decreasing.

The body seemed to return to normal.

It's just that the area on the shoulder is still very hot, still emitting white smoke, if it weren't for the white Suanni body, the flesh and blood body would have been cooked.

What's going on?

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment and decided to observe again.

Slowly.

He saw that the black ash on his shoulder was moving slowly, and then the color gradually turned back to silver.

This cloud-like substance was gradually forming a brand-new silver tattoo, which looked like a vortex, or a large eye of the storm.

It was huge in size, almost completely occupying the scapula. The surrounding note-shaped microphones and the long-haired girl Tie Tie on the side of her face were like satellites surrounding it, making it an eye-catching C position all of a sudden.

Zhou Yi was a little confused for a while.

Could it be...

He tried to turn on the memory core.

Three memory core glass tubes appeared in front of him, the latest one was ten times the size of the previous two, huge but dim.

Zhou Yi stared at the new memory core.

A large number of consciousness keys inside fell off and were damaged, and black and white key bodies floated and drifted in the black void, making the entire double helix look like an ancient and broken ladder.

There is a life like a swirling mist inside.

It is located on a broken ladder of consciousness keys, unable to advance or retreat.

Zhou Yi vaguely guessed.

This guy should be the atmospheric creature.

The cold storage still self-destructed in the Tinder Life form, exploding 80,000 health points from him.

If it really exploded outside, I'm afraid the lives near Emerald City would be burned to ashes.

From this experience, the transformation of architectural life into atmospheric creatures is essentially the result of a series of energy reactions.

Even if it is transformed into Tinder Life, this process cannot be stopped.

Even losing the material carrier accelerated the whole process.

This is what happened now.

It's a pity that the Streamtracer is making the [Fire Hearth Plate], otherwise, he could be pulled over to ask.

Have to wait until next summer.

Zhou Yi thought to himself.

But at least a way to control the transformation of architectural life has been found. Through Tinder Life transformation, using oneself as a container can lock the newborn atmospheric creature.

If you encounter a strong enemy, you can also throw it out for indiscriminate attacks.

In the Inland Sea, atmospheric creatures can still scare a lot of people.

Confirming that the situation was under control, Zhou Yi ordered, "Go back, Emerald City."

"Yes, Commissioner."

Zhou Yi also said to Shi Gandang, "I have a guess..."

According to the conclusions of Shi Gandang and the others in the past, atmospheric creatures are a life form in which the consciousness completely dissipates after architectural life breaks free from the material body. It is a collective of consciousness that is constantly changing.

This life needs to hunt the consciousness of other lives to constantly replenish its consciousness information field.

"Then can it be said that consciousness is also a consumable that is constantly lost?"

Shi Gandang thought for a long time, "It is certain that consciousness has natural loss."

"Even conceptual life forms that are higher in the mechanism, their own consciousness is in dynamic change. They need to obtain consciousness information from other life forms outside, and continuously spread themselves, to enhance themselves at the level of consciousness."

It said, "From this point, it is not difficult to infer that although atmospheric creatures further disperse their own bodies into a gaseous structure, the consciousness field will also be lost and needs to be replenished."

"This conclusion is correct, but the reasons need to be further investigated."

Zhou Yi thought, that's enough.

……

The high building landed on the ground, stirring up a circle of shock waves, and the Poseidon also returned to the Dead Sea.

Red Falcon flew all the way, "How is the situation?"

Zhou Yi pointed to his shoulder, "Although there were some twists and turns, it's not a big problem."

"That's good."

The drone asked again, "Can the alert be lifted now?"

"Yes. Go, tell everyone to return to normal."

It began a new round of busyness.

Assistant Yuan Xiao also came with Red Falcon.

The Death Angel was not worried about Zhou Yi's safety at all. She said, "I have handed Fang Qiao over to the Bone Man Wu Yi. With him there, that person can't run away."

"In addition, I have also checked the surrounding area and have not seen any other suspicious life forms."

She is professional in combat and hunting.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Zhou Yi nodded, "Go and call Sun Hao over."

Not long after.

The black-robed boy flew all the way with Yuan Xiao.

"Father, are you looking for me?"

He still calls him that.

"Eh, you look seriously injured..."

Surprise flashed in Sun Hao's eyes, and then he became serious, "Part of your consciousness is collapsing and severely tearing."

Zhou Yi was certain in his heart.

Indeed.

"Your new consciousness is very severely damaged, and most of the consciousness blocks are incomplete and fragmented. Please let me treat you, the earlier the treatment, the better." The boy strongly suggested.

Zhou Yi nodded, "Okay. You try it."

The black-robed boy observed for a while, put his hand on Zhou Yi's shoulder, and then unfolded geometric light paths all over his body, which were connected to Zhou Yi's shoulder, forming a peculiar closed structure.

The previous burning, soreness, and tearing sensations were all significantly reduced.

At the same time, Zhou Yi also paid attention to the situation inside the memory core.

Inside the huge glass tube belonging to the gaseous creature, it could be clearly seen that some floating and scattered consciousness keys were slowly approaching the broken main body and gradually splicing together.

The double helix structure was slowly repairing itself.

Zhou Yi was greatly relieved in his heart.

It really works.

Sun Hao's [Consciousness Puzzle] can repair the broken consciousness of gaseous creatures!
