Chapter 796 Cards and Pandas
After reading the relevant parameters, Xia Xiu slowly lifted the projection of civilization's survival.
Then, he reached out from the void, activated [Private Customization], and took out two cards from the void pocket.
His slender fingers gently held them up.
These two cards exuded a faint golden light, and the lines on the card surface seemed to be alive, flowing slowly.
On the first card, a magnificent building is exquisitely depicted, with gilded words printed on the card: [Zhujie Construction Co., Ltd.].
The second card is even more mysterious. On the screen is a huge platform, leading to the endless void, surrounded by dark red light. The words on the card have a hint of eeriness: [Gate of Purgatory] platform].
Xia Xiu lowered his head and stared at the two legendary land cards with a slight smile on his lips.
These cards are all legendary land cards generated by the [Golden Tree] through condensing modified value economy and power construction.
Behind every card represents a huge capital project. They are a concentrated expression of power and resources under the modified value economy.
These two cards are the important nodes established by Xia Xiu to connect the hub of Hell's Kitchen and Whispering Square in this world.
He raised his head and looked at an open space in the enclave, which was the area that had been cleared a while ago.
This was once an abandoned village, but it has long since lost its vitality.
Xia Xiu once specifically asked for permission from the ancients and demolished it, on the one hand to make room for the activation of the land tiles, and on the other hand, to house the special abnormal items transferred from the Kingdom of Heaven - a group of pandas.
At this moment, the fourth sword holder of the Kingdom of Heaven slowly stepped forward, and the [∞] symbol flashed under his feet.
The next moment.
Xia Xiu stood in the middle of the open space, the card in his hand glowing slightly.
He gently tapped the first card and activated the first land card:
[Zhujie Construction Co., Ltd.·Loading——]
[The Golden Law begins to read information——]
[After reading, the correction value enters the running state——]
[Tap this card·Pay 10000 modifier:
Provide accelerated construction for an ongoing project, reducing construction time by at least 80%, ensuring that a very large construction project (such as a military base, interdimensional transportation hub) can be completed within days or hours (the specific progress speed is modified by value of subsequent expenditure decisions).]
[Zhujie Construction Co., Ltd.] The card bloomed with dazzling golden light.
An invisible force surged out from the card and quickly spread to the entire open space.
The surrounding air was stirred by some powerful energy, and ripples spread out in circles.
After a while, a vague architectural projection gradually appeared above the open space.
It was a majestic building that shrouded the entire space in its majesty.
The outline of the building gradually became clearer, and every detail inside, including columns and window lattice, seemed to have been carefully carved by invisible hands.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Xiu activated the second card - [Purgatory Gate Platform]
[Purgatory Gate Platform·Loading——]
[Information blessing from Construction Co., Ltd. detected——]
[Linkage effect activated——]
[Tap this card·Pay 8000 modifier:
Activate Space Folding, allowing you to summon specified items directly from your hand (the basic golden tree) or library (the three major technology trees) to the field.
Special effect: After the construction of the platform is completed, it will serve as the hub station of the administration. It will increase the income of 10,000 gold coins every quarter, and add a correction value of 3,000, which can be used for other plane projects. ]
The dark red light on the card quickly spread, intertwining with the previous golden light.
On the other side of the open space, the outline of a huge platform slowly emerged.
The power of the two land cards gathered in the open space, and the projection of the building gradually materialized, becoming a brand new structure in the enclave.
The surrounding air is still surging with energy fluctuations, like an invisible storm.
Xia Xiu stood there, folding his hands and watching everything in front of him quietly.
Xia Xiu stood quietly in the middle of the open space, with his hands folded in front of his chest, and a thoughtful light shone in his golden eyes.
He watched the construction of the two land cards that gradually materialized, but a complicated emotion emerged in his heart.
He is well aware of the situation he is in now.
To be honest, he is not satisfied with his current trump card.
Although the two golden law cards in his hand are legendary quality land cards and represent huge capital projects such as [All Realms Construction Co., Ltd.] and [Purgatory Gate Platform], they are still on the entire Ivy War card table. , but it’s just the most basic “ticket”.
After all, the pioneers of the Ivy League now hold multiple creature cards and enchantment cards that are equivalent to the first stage of the pedigree [entry].
He thought of the cards held by those pioneers. For example, several first-level core cards from the field of [Sociology-Biology]:
[Activity Enhancer]: By enhancing the metabolic speed of organisms, it gives individuals amazing vitality and recovery capabilities.
[Glandular Adaptation]: Optimize the endocrine system and enhance the organism's adaptability to environmental changes.
[Biomechanics]: Organically combine abnormalities with biology to greatly improve individual strength and durability.
[Automatic Cell Repair]: Endows organisms with powerful self-repair capabilities and can quickly heal almost any wound.
These four cards, once formed into a complete deck, are enough to build a powerful first-level peak combat power.
This kind of combat power can not only easily deal with conventional conflicts in a world with a depth of 5 or above, but can even handle higher-level battles and remain invincible.
However, the abyss below depth 5 is a completely different story.
Below depth 5, the harshness of the environment and the complexity of the planes far exceed the limits of personal ability.
It is almost impossible for an adventurer to move alone in the deep ocean. Any attempt to go deep alone will eventually become a silent cry in the ether.
Therefore, many deep divers will choose to form a group and form a pirate group or a marauder alliance to survive and gain profits in this abyss through collective strength.
The lines in the deep ocean are intricate and complicated, like a huge spider web. The route changes all the time, and the navigation rules become blurred due to the environment.
Because of this, the existence of pirates and plunderers is like a stubborn disease that cannot be eradicated. Their activities range across the deep areas of the universe, and have even become part of the ecology of some regions.
This phenomenon also directly led to the prevalence of pirate culture in all worlds.
Deep divers all find their own way to survive under these rules.
Xia Xiu stood in the middle of the open space, his eyes falling on the projections of the land signs and buildings that were gradually materializing, while his mind was rapidly analyzing and thinking about these issues.
The construction of the enclave is just the beginning, and how to maximize the value of these land cards and continue to expand the Kingdom of Heaven's hand is the key task after the three houses.
Just as he was deep in thought, a deep and deep voice came from beside him, interrupting his thoughts.
"This is the power of the golden tree - it is a rare miracle."
Xia Xiu turned his head and looked at the source of the sound.
He was stunned for a moment, but quickly regained his composure.
He saw a black and white panda walking towards him slowly.
This panda is huge, with rich and shiny hair, and a furry feeling all over its body.
The panda's steps were calm. It walked slowly to Xia Xiu, and then unceremoniously sat its furry body on the ground, like a natural statue.
It raised its head and looked directly at Xia Xiu with its round eyes.
Xia Xiu smiled slightly and stared at the panda in front of him with a hint of exploration. His voice is calm but full of power:
"Nice to meet you, resister of the Xiangshou Demon."
The panda raised its head, its deep gaze seemed to penetrate the space, and it replied politely: "I am also very happy to see you, the decision-maker of the Heavenly Kingdom Reserve."
Xia Xiu raised his eyebrows, feeling a little interested in this title.
He looked at the furry creature in front of him with interest, and his tone was a little more tentative:
"I guess your essence is not the physical creature I'm chatting with right now. Am I right?"
The panda tilted its head slightly, as if thinking about how to express it.
After a while, it spoke:
“The part is not the whole.
I act through the beast, I think through the beast, but I am not a beast.
Shoots, roots, and leaves give me a place to live, but I am not a green plant. ”
Hearing this meaningful answer, Xia Xiu's eyes flashed with deep thought.
The panda paused for a moment and then said:
"Just as you are a microcosm of human community, so am I.
Please...you...collect_6_9_书_吧 (六//九//书//吧)
I represent the black and white tribes of the forest who dance with their cat-like steps.
Any one of them can speak or act if they so desire.
But they didn't. They are all lost in an atmosphere of self-despair.
It seems that I am the only one left who can break out of this ouroboros-like cycle and have the ability to pay attention to something outside of it. ”
Xia Xiu was silent for a moment, looking directly into the panda's black and white eyes.
"You are the incarnation of a will, the spokesperson of a species.
I'm curious, what breaks you out of this cycle? ”
The panda moved slightly, its hair trembling slightly in the breeze, and whispered:
"Despair is often the heaviest shackles of a group, and will is the only key that can break the shackles."
After hearing this, Xia Xiu slowly stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, his eyes still fixed on the unique panda in front of him.
"It's hard for me to imagine that powerful beings like you would fall into such a situation. What have you experienced?"
The panda's eyes narrowed slightly, as if recalling a long and heavy history. It said slowly:
"Our memory is not perfect. In order to survive, we have sacrificed so much that even the details of those sacrifices have been blurred. But I will tell you everything we remember."
Xia Xiu nodded and signaled it to continue.
"Before that law appeared," the panda's deep voice seemed to have echoes of ancient times.
"We are an inconspicuous small tribe, but we have lofty ambitions. We hide in the shadows of more advanced tribes, learn from them, constantly enrich ourselves, and prepare for the day of sublimation. We were once very close to success, That's when the 'Demon of Things' appeared. ”
Xia Xiu frowned, a trace of doubt flashed in his golden eyes:
"The Demon of Things, the Demon of Screams, what exactly is that thing?"
Panda explained in a deep voice:
"It is a law, an existence whose essence is destruction.
When it first came, our world was torn apart.
The screamers who ascended from the lower world were distorted and their cores were full of hunger, fear and despair.
They are not invaders, they are simply trying to escape the 'demon of the situation'.
But their desperation makes them attack without hesitation, as their endless hunger drives them to tear everything apart.
They take away from us the skills of the hunter, the desire for meat, and the ability to feel joy in victory. ”
The panda paused, with a trace of unconcealable pain in his eyes:
"After they left, we realized that the real threat was not them, but the thing they were fleeing from - the 'devil of the situation'.
It is a realm of nothingness that swallows everything, tearing things into pieces through sharp fractal laws, and ultimately brings the entire world to destruction. ”
He heard this familiar tone, the ancient one had spoken to [Green Clothes] once before.
"Isn't there a specific way to defeat it?"
"No." Panda replied bluntly.
"It grows and devours.
Panic consumes us, and in order to survive, we try to ascend and escape its spread.
But we have lost too much, and we are no longer a complete being.
When we try to reach out to our allies for help, we are forced to devour them instead to replenish what we have lost.
Eventually, we succeeded in ascension, but we also became the same beings as the abominable Screamers we originally considered them to be. ”
Xia Xiu listened quietly without interrupting.
"We struggled to survive in another world, but were besieged by more powerful beings. Those beings eventually witnessed the arrival of the 'Demon of Things', and its edge tore everything apart.
Only one tribe found a way to survive - they abandoned everything, even their past, leaving only their sincerity, and used it to enter the depths of the Demon of Things, where they could reinvent themselves. ”
The panda's voice trembled slightly, as if these memories still hurt it:
“We tried to imitate, but our pride and ambition prevented us from completely abandoning ourselves. We were torn apart, twisted, and ended up becoming what we are now - a forest, a group of beasts, and a few individuals dancing among them. ”
"What is your request?"
Xia Xiu's voice was low and calm, and his eyes did not leave the panda.
The panda stared at him deeply:
"We are dying without the power to change the world and mold it into what we want it to be.
The 'Demon of Things' must be destroyed, and we...we must survive. ”
Xia Xiu's hand slowly tightened his cane. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head. An imperceptible light ignited in his golden pupils:
"The goal of destroying the 'Devil of Situation'... sounds unattainable, but perhaps, it is not completely hopeless."
The panda nodded, with a hint of expectation in his tone:
"Will you help us?"
"Of course, we just need to carefully weigh the price of dealing with it."
So said the fourth sword-bearer in the Kingdom of Heaven.
The panda was silent for a moment, and then said softly:
"No matter what, any price can be paid, as long as it brings hope."
