Chapter 1010: Infected

What happened to Shayu-1

Now it's important to figure out just how much damage the enemy's traps can inflict.

Then we need to figure out who the enemy is, where they come from, and what their purpose is.

The entire Sand Area - 1 is now offline. Let's deploy a reconnaissance drone first.

The first to arrive on the scene was a humpback whale from the patrolling squadron of whales that roamed the four-dimensional space nearby.

Because the entire Shadom-1 sector, the Ménière family's administrative center has been completely out of contact.

The Whale King informed nearby whales to react quickly.

A gigantic sperm whale slowly glides past the planet's orbit.

Suddenly, it sensed a strange change in the space around it.

Then.

A colossal ship, burdened with towering mountains, materialized before their eyes as if by teleportation.

In the vacuum, the speed of sound could not keep up with the colossal warships appearing from thin air. The thundering sonic boom was only registered by the whale after their appearance.

Taihang Mountain

...Allied first-class transport ship....

It remembered that the mountain core space of this ship was still being compressed at the Vortex Star Gravity Factory, its sister, a young Leviathan whale, worked there.

This order could be said to have saved the whale clan from population decline, otherwise, its sister would have been out of a job and returned to the void (card pool).

The only member of the whale clan to achieve a Tier 1 celestial status, Princess is currently with the Allied Forces....

The psychic waves of the human race are coming.

They plan to deploy paratroopers for a firepower reconnaissance mission, so it won't have to extend its feelers any further.

It is well-known that the intelligence of whales is not generally considered to be high, so it's understandable that a whale might not want to think too much.

Let them investigate then.

.......

The commander was the Mountain Sea Army's Liu Er Department, with the Huaguo Mountain Reconnaissance Company.

Lu Cheng patiently awaits the results.

Soon, a message came back.

Everything is normal, only the communication is bad Ah"

Lu Cheng's eyes widened.

Taihang Mountain deployed six ear departments to the planets, as well as the North and South Poles, and human settlements. The reconnaissance results are as follows.

Communication was quickly restored.

At that moment, Lu Cheng was in the Bei Ming Sha Hai. On the crystal screen used for divine mind communication, Yeb's head appeared.

"Lu Gong, it's alright, the enemy's attack only caused a temporary disruption to our psychic communication. Everything is normal here."

Yebu has always considered Lu Cheng the greatest engineer, and the two of them get along very well in engineering. Therefore, he has always called him "Lu Gong".

"Really nothing" Lu Cheng sounded doubtful.

A cross-regional card strike, merely a temporary disruption to the spiritual communications of Sector-1

"It's really nothing, you see..." Yeb showed Lu Cheng the Damascus mechanism city behind him.

He seems to be on the road right now.

It's clear that there is some congestion, the communication cutoff to Damascus is apparently putting pressure on traffic.

But looking at it, there's no sign of any attack.

"Oh...that's good then..." Lu Cheng slightly relaxed his heart.

"Lu Gong, I'm not disturbing you, am I Hey........." Jeb wanted to close the psychic crystal mirror.

"Hey, Abu, wait." Lu Cheng stopped him. ".....hiss.....uh......Well, it's not really polite to say this, but...have humans always looked like this"

Lu Cheng frowned.

In the picture, Abu is shaking his two large whiskers and his body is wriggling constantly.

No matter how you look at him, he just doesn't seem right, but I can't put my finger on what's wrong.

It is undoubtedly Abu in front of him. Lu Cheng was very sure.

But this young man, has always been called handsome.

Now Lu Cheng actually felt a little...disgusted

No way

"What's wrong, Lu Gong" Aboo clumped together into a ball, extending even more tentacles from its body, nearly twisting them all into one.

"No..." Lu Cheng shook his head.

In this world, there aren't many things that leave Lu Cheng feeling confused.

Although Tiānxiān (Celestial Fairy) definitely can't achieve omniscience, she is definitely well-informed.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with the looks of the people on the streets of Jeb.... and Damascus right now, but he just felt something was off.

What does the human species look like

Lu Cheng didn't think that becoming an immortal meant forgetting common sense, nor did he think it was necessary to mobilize so many resources for such a common-sense question, but it was really strange.

Lu Cheng was summoned by the flying swords and landed at Changbai Mountain's Heavenly Lake.

Upon looking inside.

No problem at all....

Your image is pretty much like Jeb's.

But.......looking at it, I feel sickened.

Although Lu Cheng didn't really care about appearances, the celestial being had doubts that needed to be resolved. So, he gathered his strategists.

Let's begin exploring a question.

Has human species always looked like this

.........

Lu Chengshou doesn't have many advisor cards, but his current strategic points are still sufficient.

The information obtained this round is.

Humans do indeed look like this.

Whether in written records, historical paintings, or even photographs from the era of millennium wars, they all resemble this.

After almost half a year of careful study, the scholars and experts reached an undeniable conclusion.

Oh, I was overthinking things again

Making such a big fuss about this is completely unwarranted.......

It seems that the subtle grafting was too tiring, the divine consciousness was damaged, and she should retreat to rest for a while

That's not right...

Something is wrong!

Lu Cheng suddenly sat up.

Historical data and paintings, even our understanding are all fine, but there is one problem.

In the Records of the Later Han Dynasty, there is this saying.

The thousand-mechanism artisan said, "A mechanical warrior must fully connect with the spirit and essence of a martial artist. Therefore, the humanoid form is the most suitable."

Lu Cheng used the suction cups on his tentacles to flip out his cards and examined them carefully.

Terracotta Warriors - 005, Han Dynasty Power Armor - 001, Eastern Han Dynasty Ship Crew Member, Jin Dynasty City Wall Soldier..........

Why are the mechanisms I made like this

Recent memories.......

Lu Cheng saw the animation on the card, and the mighty soldiers of Chang'an City pounded out the boundary between yin and yang with a punch!

If it is said... anthropomorphization.

Pavilions of jade and gold, standing between heaven and earth, such a handsome war machine, where does it look human

Let's not talk about anything else....

At least there's no need for that!!!

........

(One level of cognitive rupture, your current desk state: moderate psychic pollution)

One of your safety house rules has expired.

You are currently under the influence of an unknown rule card effect and are recalculating the strategy points of both sides. Your card's total strategy points are greater than your opponent's. You can play a suitable card this turn to counter them.

Here it is.

Let me know if you have anything else you'd like translated!

Tough.

Lu Cheng's face was grave.

And it's not coming for the sand dunes, it's coming for itself.

One round has already passed, if it weren't for the clever discovery of something amiss, we would have been finished!

"Analyze the card type!"

This action requires you to spend all your scheme points and 1 standard unit of energy from the previous round.

"Pulling a card from the Xuan Yuan Sword domain...."

There isn't enough energy, so we'll just use a test plate for now.

It's definitely a loss. It's foreseeable that the experimental process will be significantly delayed.

The timing of their capture at this moment... is extremely clever.

It's really tough that this happened right in the middle of a transition period.

(Found enemy element card {Deep Contamination}, effect: unknown, currently usable counter cards: {Keen Eye})

That's not good......

This doesn't look good.

Element!

One has time and domain to contend with, but it is precisely the elements that stand in the way.

【Entry Point】 is being used in the Sword Domain... If it's used against 【Infection】, the Herb Engraving experiment will definitely be impossible to conduct, and 【Taste a Hundred Herbs】 will also stagnate.

Without crop improvement, energy efficiency will suffer, falling into a vicious cycle.

If you don't fight on the rule level, it means... you have energy, but you have to play within the other person's rules.

This is getting tricky.

This move is subtle...

Right after the safe house era just passed, this happened.

Their main attack hasn't arrived yet, but the rule cards are here first.

Let Lu Cheng suffer a hidden loss right from the start.

What kind of population is it

Can we communicate

Was it just luck, or is he really that good

Lu Cheng fell into deep thought.

Both Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang had said that, in terms of strategy, one must always consider the enemy's potential to their fullest. Don't think that if they happen to hit a weak point it's just luck. Even if they truly are lucky,

Let's see, old iron from the whale clan... can it move

The control of Princess Momentary is still in her own hands, but the Whale clan was severely wounded in the last battle and probably can't resist this rule card.

Lu Cheng must make a choice, either stand alone against the rules, or give up.

To fight against the rules, the inscription of plants and trees has to be temporarily abandoned. This round definitely lacks energy.

So, now the choice is, do you want more energy, or to follow the rules of the game

.......

Lu Cheng shook his head vigorously, trying to organize his chaotic thoughts.

It is extremely dangerous to have the rules of the game completely in your opponent's hands.

This rule, its effects unknown, had a massive impact when enacted. It even polluted the cognitive level.

The Lion King once had an absolute advantage in terms of board presence, but due to a shallow understanding of the rules, he was defeated by Qi Li under the rules of Heaven.

I'd rather choose a little less energy.......and try my best to counteract it.

"Halt the grafting research, recall 【Ruwei】, recall 【Tianshan Polygonatum - Experiment 07】, sacrifice, refine into: 【Immortal Qi】 * 1...."

From your hand, pay one 【Xianqi】 and play the artifact card 【Ziwai Tianmen】, attaching the element card 【Ruwei】!

Master, please lend me your pen.

I'm here to join the game...and break it!

........

You played a law card, and a rule clash is forming. Once the rule clash is complete, new rules for the duel will be generated, and both players can then proceed with a normal card setup.

You delayed entering a round, and your side will be playing from the second turn in this match.

(Due to the skills of 【Ziwei Tianmen】, the worldview is being formed.......)

Your expansion pack is currently Tang, and the ongoing task is "Journey to the West." Enemy regular cards will target this as their objective.

(World Pollution Assessment: Location)

The initial entry point: Liusha River (desert)

Lu Cheng suddenly opened his eyes.

"Young one, you're awake" a kind voice echoed in his ear.

Ignores the voices around, Tianmen's prompt echoes in her mind.

It has been thirty-six years since the westward journey failed. The Immortal Realm sent Tian Sha Xing (you) down to investigate the disappearance of Master Xuanzang. After several years walking among mortals, you learn that Xuanzang is dead.

But the whole world is " Xuanzang".

The temptation of immortality is irresistible to all....

As the Monkey King was absent, Xuanzang had no protection and was long devoured by a demon.

But you know deep down... immortality is not a blessing, but a curse!

Xuanzang's longevity cells are a downright... curse!!!

After the pilgrims were devoured, they indeed... gained immortality, but the curse was released.... " Xuanzang cells" are multiplying infinitely, and the world is being infected by them.

To prevent the immortal cells from infecting the celestial realm, the Heavenly Gate was forced to close.

Tian Sha Xing, you still have three years.

Stop this from spreading to the Three Realms.... Stop this, great calamity of longevity!)

"Youngster" The prompt ended, and a kind voice came again.

Lu Cheng tilted his head slightly.

There's no other way but to be unbiased, isn't there

Because... five tentacles were about to touch his face!

....... give the demon warriors "vigor".They hit it off immediately and became partners in crime.The leader of the Jie people established the Later Zhao, and the Demon Lord instigated him to advance on Guanz...
