Chapter 174 Wait, the magic city has changed for the first time!
In response, Lin Qun just shook his head and asked: "What's going on with this domain lord, general, and those monsters that turned from human shadows? And why are you relatively safe here? Is there anything special here? ”
Zou Lianshan and the others have lived here for a while. They may not know the high-level and overall information, but they are familiar with the system and threats of the shadow civilization in this gray-black fog. , I definitely understand, otherwise it would be impossible to live till now.
Since Lin Qun "spent money", he naturally wanted to ask clearly.
Zou Lianshan looked at Lin Qun and shook his head, obviously disappointed.
Their hope was to leave this man-eating gray-black fog and stay as far away from these shadow civilization monsters as possible, but unfortunately, Lin Qun's hope seemed to be dashed.
But Zou Lianshan is an honest man. He took Lin Qun's things and told Lin Qun exactly what he asked.
Just mentioning the Territory Lord, Zou Lianshan and others were obviously a little apprehensive and afraid.
“Lord of the Territory... This is what the shadow civilization creatures call it.
“It is the most powerful individual of the shadow civilization in the Magic City area, and it is also their ruler, incomparable It is huge, and our conventional firepower has no effect on it. So far, it, like other shadow civilization creatures, does not have the same conventional vitality as us humans, but it is much more powerful than those ordinary shadow civilization creatures. How much do you know...
"Any creature that wanted to challenge it died. The last large military team we encountered, a regiment of troops, was easily destroyed by it and its 'generals'... If It's not that we escaped quickly...
"And it seems to be connected with those shadow civilization creatures. Whoever kills those shadow civilization creatures wherever they are, it will quickly mobilize more monsters, and , those creatures of shadow civilization worship it as a god. They not only worship it, but also offer sacrifices to it. We have seen with our own eyes that they will send the captured people to high places for it to eat...
"Every time it eats a person, it becomes bigger. When it first came, it was not so huge..."
Lin Qun frowned.
The life forms of the shadow civilization are very strange, and their civilizational ideologies seem to be very different from humans and even the Bakatans that Lin Qun has come into contact with.
But in fact, after Lin Qun came into contact with them, the dark matter life forms of ordinary shadow civilizations were actually not very powerful. In terms of combat power alone, they were just a little stronger than humans. They were not even comparable to ordinary Bakatan warriors. It was just their unique existence, The attack method makes them look very weird and can have unexpected killing effects, but in fact, it is not difficult to kill them as long as you master the method.
Take what happened to Lin Qun just now as an example. He rushed into the gray-black fog and massacred a group of shadow civilizations. They didn't even have any effective counterattack, not even thermal weapons.
This is a unique group of contestants.
This is a unique civilization.
However, Lin Qun dare not be careless. Those who can participate in the war of civilizations must have some means. In particular, the shadow civilization creatures also want to land in the main city of the Demon City and compete with the Bakatan civilization. This means Yes, at least they are not afraid of the Bakatans.
Where it is weak, it must be strong.
This domain owner may be like this.
Zou Lianshan's voice continued: "And those 'generals' are creatures of the shadow civilization that have received its blessings. They are more powerful than ordinary shadow civilization creatures and have some special abilities. Generally speaking, The survivors are no match for them...
"As for the monsters turned into by those people's shadows, we actually don't know very well, but as far as I know, they are weak shadow civilization creatures that eat people. 'Part of the ritual..."
"Cannibalism? "Lin Qun was confused.
"Yes, in fact, this is what we have only observed after being trapped here for so long. Shadow civilization creatures kill people not only to contribute points, but also to 'eat'. Territory lords eat people, and monsters also eat people. They Instead of eating the whole person, the most they really swallow is some things like brains and eyes. They don't seem to care about other things at all, and what they really eat seems to be the human life force. The new lives of the shadow civilization that are 'hatched' from the shadows of living people grow very quickly because they are the shadows of those people. Even if they are separated, they still have something with those people that we cannot understand. Through this connection, they can continue to extract the life force of the original owner.
“And they only need to hide, and those people will eventually be beaten to death. "
When he said this, the expression on Zou Lianshan's kind face changed slightly, and his muscles twitched slightly.
The woman with tentacles on one side of her head whispered: "Zou This is how the eldest brother's wife died. "
"Yes, I was too stupid. I watched her shadow run away, and I was too timid to chase her. At that time, I didn't even know they had such ability. I will know later. By that time, it was already too late. The fog was so thick. How could I possibly find her shadow? I could only watch her being sucked to death! "Zou Lianshan showed a look of resentment and self-blame.
Lin Qun had seen too many expressions like this in the closed area of the Magic City.
I even saw the exact same look on Xia Qing's face.
They wish they could tear out the alien civilization and exterminate the race, but they themselves are so weak that it is impossible to take revenge. They can only live in contentment, living in hatred and self-blame all day long.
When Lin Qun heard these descriptions, he was also a little frightened.
According to Zou Lianshan’s description, these shadow civilizations are like hatched chicks, and humans are their eggshells. They hatch out of human shadows, gain life, and in turn devour humans. "Eggshells" realize their own growth. When they are almost grown and developed, the eggshells have long been eaten up. The most frightening thing is that this invisible connection is almost impossible to cut off. Even Lin Qun heard it, and with his methods, he couldn't think of any way to cut off this connection.
At this time, he understood why the unknown fairy reminded him in a rare and urgent manner.
This method is almost difficult to guard against if you don’t understand it.
Thinking of this, he also took a special look at his feet.
In the house, Zou Lianshan and others lit candles. In the flickering light, Lin Qun could see his own shadow.
This thing that he usually pays little attention to is now here safely, which makes Lin Qun feel at ease.
He said: "My shadow has just hatched a shadow civilization creature, but if I kill it, will it hatch again in my shadow?"
Zou Lianshan was shaken. He shook his head and said: "Although I don't know why, people who have hatched once will not hatch again in their shadows. Look at us, we have been able to survive until now, and we have killed our own shadows, and our shadows have no shadows."
"In fact, as long as there is no contact with them or the gray-black mist they secrete, the shadows will not mutate. We feel that these gray-black mist are used for reproduction. There is no way we would inhale pollen or spores without breathing them – which may sound disgusting. ”
Zou Lianshan’s description is really uncomfortable.
But Lin Qun could accept it. Fighting bloody battles all the way, this little thing didn't matter.
Hearing this, he probably gained knowledge and understanding of this shadow civilization.
The power of this shadow civilization obviously does not lie in the individuals, but in the gray-black foggy field they created, the large number of individuals gathered in the group, and their weird methods. Otherwise, if they had real swords and guns, Those who collided violently would have jumped out and killed them like Bakatans, because their methods tended to be subtle and strange. This will make their opponents feel like they are being beaten softly on cotton when fighting them, because the shadow civilization will not confront you at all.
Just like just now, the shadow spread rapidly, but after encountering a strong counterattack from humans, it was the party that retreated quickly.
However, this may be a better solution.
Lin Qun guessed that with his own strength, he could probably walk sideways here. He had nothing to fear. The only question was, how to clear the fog?
This question is not only in front of him, but also in front of the entire Magic City.
With the methods of shadow civilization, it is very simple to resist them. Otherwise, when the fog comes, their methods will be useless. But if the fog comes, both the military and the survivors will be in big trouble. This kind of visibility and electromagnetic interference alone is enough for humans to drink a pot.
The first plan that Lin Qun thought of was the vacuum cloud bomb.
Modu does not have nuclear weapons, but it does have vacuum cloud bombs, and there are more than one, which may be of great use.
At this time, Zou Lianshan had already answered Lin Qun's last question: "Brother, you asked us why we are safe here. In fact, we don't know very well. In this gray-black fog, there are places where the fog is thin and there is no shadow civilization. biology Come..."
At this time, the tentacle girl in the corner said: "We guess that this fog is not actually a fog, it just looks like a fog from our human perspective, but in fact, maybe To the domain lord and the shadow here For civilized creatures, they and the particles that make up this fog together form a structure like a neural network or a spider web, but it is in this structure that there are gaps and nerve endings, and in those places, It is a place where they cannot observe, so it is difficult for them to find this place, which is our current safe zone. Of course, this is just a guess, and we have no theoretical basis.”
The words of this tentacle girl made me think. Lin Qun was also moved in his heart.
He thinks what this girl said makes sense.
From a human perspective, this gray-black fog will always be preconceived as fog, but this is something from another civilization, another world, and another species. Maybe it is not actually anything at all. Fog, if you think about it from another angle, many misunderstandings and confusions caused by thinking deviations can be explained almost instantly.
This is like a puppy eating a dog. The more the owner beats it, the more it eats. The owner wants to tell the dog not to eat it, but in the dog's mind, this may be because the owner hates its dog. In order to please the owner, it eats more and more. Not only will he not stop eating, but he will eat it faster, and even eat it quickly without the owner paying attention.
This is the cognitive bias between different creatures.
But just as Lin Qun was deep in thought.
The young man on the other side who had just finished speaking and fell silent suddenly screamed strangely: "Wait a minute, look, why has our number one in the Magic City region changed? Is this number one, Ye Ying? Him? Who is it? How come he has nearly 8,000 contribution points? "
