CHAPTER 775: CHAPTER 343: PLANETARY TERRAFORMING

"Blood and flesh armor, interesting!"

Mochizuki Masashi seemed quite in agreement with Lin Xian’s description. He said directly, "There is a certain technical difficulty between these two. In a certain sense, the Human Gu is just a variant of zombies, mutated from humans. Of course, we have every reason to suspect that they are trying to expand this technology. It’s not just the Deep Red World; other organizations, including the Phoenix Society, are conducting similar research, just for different purposes."

Ever since Apocalypse Day, when humans captured the first Abnormal Body, research on Dark Creatures has never stopped. To overcome the global Extreme Night disaster, the first thing to conquer is these unknown creatures.

However, official organizations like the Phoenix Society are researching the existence, communication methods, survival, and weaknesses of such creatures, while the emergence of this cult-like blood and flesh armor technology tree by the Deep Red World left Lin Xian a bit incredulous.

"But whether it’s the Memory Fungus Converter or the Dark Energy Invasion Suppression Device, being able to achieve this proves that the Deep Red World is indeed well ahead of us in the dark field of research," Mochizuki Masashi added.

Ning Jing’s face showed a complex expression as she frowned and said, "So, does this mean these Red Men not only possess human consciousness but can also survive in the dark?"

"Only theoretically."

Qian Suxun explained solemnly, "I have had a few encounters, concluding that they are powerful, unaffected by dark invasions, but their consciousness is not completely controllable. They are just much more difficult to deal with than ordinary Human Gu."

KIKI rested her chin on her hand, looking thoughtful: "I understand now, they must have used digital life and mecha neural interaction technology, but the control over the fungus brain is still a challenge. Otherwise, humans could really armor themselves with Abnormal Bodies to counter the darkness..."

Lin Xian sat next to KIKI, and upon hearing her, he felt a slight tremor in his heart because he inexplicably sensed that the many threads in the darkness seemed to be gradually converging to a core direction.

That is adaptation.

During the escape, all the survivors realized that the darkness was adapting to this world, and humans were also adapting to the darkness.

And after Mochizuki Masashi explained the principle of Star Abyss expansion, it further proved that the dark world might be conducting planetary transformation on Blue Star through the Dark Tide pattern!

After seeing the Nest, Lin Xian’s understanding of the existence of these dark creatures became even more blurred. What was thought to be C-level, B-level, and A-level Abnormal Bodies might be just the societal and species relationship within this ’Dark Civilization,’ but now it seems completely inexplicable with human sociology.

But he knew the direction of the Phoenix Society, Silent City, and Mochizuki Masashi was correct. The core issue for humanity right now is not to expand military power or evolve themselves but to understand the darkness.

Only by understanding the dark invasion and knowing the enemy can humanity realize what they are truly facing.

Since Apocalypse Day, there has been no plan, no objective. As of D-100 day, the official governments are still in a bewildered state.

It is precisely because humanity does not even understand what the enemy or apocalypse is that the world is in such a disordered state, fleeing entirely towards the dawn.

"So, you want us to collaborate, resolve the Deep Red World’s White City Research Institute, obtain their research data, and then leave," Lin Xian looked at Mochizuki Masashi and remarked.

"Precisely, fungal technology, mechanical armor, their research on Star Abyss, dark invasion, Disaster Plants, Taboo Items, and all research data."

Mochizuki Masashi, with hands in sleeves, smiled and said, "Assuming the Deep Red World has been conducting this research for over a month, by the time dilation here, it’s already over a year."

"And that’s even with 1,000 professor-level scientists working 24/7, utilizing conscious memory to iterate, sparing no expense or effort in research," Qian Deli chimed in.

"Wow." KIKI, arms crossed, eyes gleaming, said, "And surely... they have more than one such research institute."

The comments from everyone made them start to realize the severity of the situation.

Of course, for everyone, the primary problem is that the people of the Deep Red World have set their eyes on them. After all, even if Lin Xian’s plan to successfully complete electromagnetic catapult shuttle works, they still have to depart from White City. If this issue is not resolved, whether it’s the Joint Train or Silent City, there will be significant risks.

"So, what method do you have to deal with the self-destruct mechanism of the Memory Fungus Converter?" Qian Suxun asked Lin Xian at this moment.

This problem is extremely thorny at present. It is clear that the people of the Deep Red World have put a lot of thought into their confidentiality measures. Ignoring the encryption level of the conscious memory, even a self-destruct device alone is already troublesome enough.

These clones have a very short lifespan, and as soon as they encounter danger or death, the self-destruct device will immediately activate. Coupled with the inherent dangers within Star Abyss, even with Mochizuki Masashi’s high industrial technology capability and their formidable team strength, it’s very difficult to solve this issue.

"Oh, that’s simple."

Surprisingly, upon hearing this, Lin Xian merely pointed at the table of Qian Suxun and said, "Are you talking about this thing?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Suxun’s gaze moved downwards in surprise, and in an instant, his pupils contracted sharply. Next to his teacup, there mysteriously appeared a brand new silver brain-machine device, identical to the ones on the corpses of the two researchers from the Deep Red World!

"What!"

Qian Suxun was utterly shocked: "You... don’t tell me you just created this?!"
