Chapter 372 Terra Overload Day/Brave New World Project (Gray Goo)
The slimy deep divers who landed on the coast of Bonifacio dragged their slimy bodies towards Corsica Advancing inland, Xia Xiu had almost finished reading the relevant deeds on the surface of the builders, and he also almost understood the purpose of the Gear Orthodox Church in the Far East.
With the dramatic changes in the kingdom of heaven and the outbreak of the starry sky incident, the global collapse of [Financial Street], the blockade of the starry sky and the return of the stars, as well as the successive resurgence of the surviving gods, these events have caused the entire Terra to enter an unprecedented vicious cycle Transformation, according to Heaven's theory, is the last 60 seconds of [Doomsday Clock], when all of Terra collapses and enters the moment of collapse.
In the distant Far East, the genealogy think tank [McCaan] shared by the three major Mechanical Churches has proposed a new doomsday hypothesis based on Terra's current situation, and this doomsday hypothesis will be so serious that it will suppress the shattering. The resurgence of the world, the spread of machinery and rationality, is the second major problem that the Mechanical Church has to face after the flesh-and-blood enemy.
The question raised by [McCann] is essentially a concrete manifestation of one of the collapse events Terra is facing. The problem it embodies is called - [Terra Overload Day/Ecological Debt day].
[Terran Overload Day/Ecological Debt Day], is a calculated date that represents the day when humanity's consumption of resources exceeds Terra's ability to regenerate those resources for the year.
"Overload" means that the demands of the human population exceed sustainable levels for all of Terra's regenerating biological resources. From an economic perspective, Terra's Overload Day represents the day when the current year's regeneration budget is depleted and humanity enters an environmental deficit spending. From an extraordinary perspective, this so-called overload day means that the resurrection of the gods will madly increase the number of Terra's local entropy pools, causing the arrangement of microscopic particles within the entire Terra system to become more random and disordered. The level of chaos in Terra's internal systems began to increase crazily.
What’s even worse is that [Financial Street], a concrete and extraordinary conceptual product, is rooted in human society, a crisis sequence that can never be erased, and [World Tree], which is suspected of being Terra Alai Another crisis sequence of the immortal existence of Jesus incarnates makes the possibility of materializing environmental deficit expenditure infinitely close to 100%.
If Terra enters an "overload" and "debt" situation, [Financial Street] will go bankrupt, and everything in it will be absorbed by [World Tree], and the overload day explosion will bring about "Great Chaos" will gather even greater factors of collapse.
According to the predictions of the Broken Church, the doomsday situation is:
Financial Street + World Tree + Terra Overload Day + Extraordinary System Collapse.
If these four are superimposed together, all the forces in Terra will get a slap in the face and wait to die.
The [Terra Overload Day] cannot be tolerated by the Mechanicus Church. The Overload Day means the end of standardized production, and means that the creations of the Machine God will turn into bubbles among the rubble.
Alas!
The process of standardization will be destroyed by this wave of exhaustion, and the great and glorious idea of God will also fall apart among the rubble.
In order to deal with this problem, the Broken Believers headed by the Gear Orthodox Church began a phased god recovery plan under the guidance of [McCann]. At the same time, they needed to recover the body of the Broken God. According to their words, when The Heart of God, the Eyes of God, and the Tongue of God were unified, the mercury of God's blood was separated from the sea of the dead and gathered in a bottle, and the soul of God redeemed from the territory of [His covered immensity] was sealed and As you watch, the brokenness will return to Terra, ending the end of time!
According to the information Xia Xiu got from the builder in front of him who had exploded his mind, he found that the goals of these mechanical "elm heads" were good, but their actions and response methods were... They are not saving the world. On the contrary, they want to give the world a punch. For no other reason than that, they want to change the whole world into their shape before [Overload Day] comes.
To this end, while they need many Mecha organs, they also need to recover many of the following fragmentary objects:
They need Mecha neurons - [Network Terminal Genetic Factors ];
They need the blood cells of the Machine God - [Unlimited self-replication machine];
They need the incarnation of the machine god's thoughts - [Holy Network Ball];
They need the muscle fiber structure of the machine god - [builder];
They need the skin and mucous membranes of the machine god - —[Smart Dust]·····
They want to use the neurons and cells of the machine god to create a world composed of highly developed networks (software) and its reality before the overload day comes. A beautiful new world where science and technology prosper and develop composed of the carrier's superstructure (hardware). Here they will build a unified kingdom and a unique--a beautiful new world!
The Brave New World Plan, this is the goal of the three major mechanical churches headed by the Gear Orthodox Church. They want to take advantage of the overload day to turn the entire world into a world of machine gods.
Of course, Xia Xiu doesn't know whether this is the goal of the Daeva Empire behind them. He is currently uploading the information read from the builder's mind to the database of the Kingdom of Heaven through [Adam], and reporting it to His own boss Eden.
If he could, he really wanted to slap these Me-God believers to death with a slap in the face.
And save Terra, Terra is about to explode because of you idiots!
It’s because of you guys working overtime every day that I am responsible for wiping your butts! ! !
The Golden Retriever looked at the builder whose mind began to explode due to the forced recall of memories. He was expressionlessly reading the draft and making a report.
His tone had the unique tone of a social beast who has been forced to work overtime because of stupid things - he has no love in life and wants to fuck everyone who doesn't have to work overtime. A job, working together as social animals.
"...So, the specific situation is what is reported above. According to the information I have obtained so far, the high mountain ruins on Corsica are suspected of retaining the muscle fiber structure of the organic god [Architecture [Mr. , at the same time, it is very likely that the text of the "Book of Deep Sea Sacrifice" is stored in the ruins, which is why a large group of deep divers attacked the Corsica island like crazy. I suspect that the real [Dagon] is wandering in the nearby waters, but. The possibility of being in Corsica is relatively low, because Corsica was only affected by large-scale cloud and fog events in the Balearic Islands. What is included in the so-called country of fog is still unknown, but it is certain Yes, they are all related to the Machine God.”

[New Honkai Management Project: Gray Goo Crisis! ]
[Gray goo: Also known as gray goo or gray fog, it is a special doomsday scenario in which a self-replicating machine made of a large number of out-of-control molecular nanotechnology consumes Terra All the biomass on the planet to copy itself, this situation is also called ecological phagocytosis; once the first sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven dealt with a gray goo incident caused by the error in the control of the genealogy network of the Central Alliance.
+The incident is as follows: In a lineage application experiment, millions of nanoscale robots were released by [Section 13] to clean up the oil after an oil spill in the Gulf. However, due to an error in one of the thaumaturgic programming, the nanorobots no longer only eat hydrocarbons in oil, but begin to eat everything made of carbon. The nanorobots destroyed the entire bay. In less than half a day, the covered area turned into a large desert. In order to clean up the gray goo in the area, His Excellency Saint Valentine had to use space-based weapons to drop a [Aden Spear] destroys everything in the area.
Afterwards, [Thirteenth Section] paid a huge amount of compensation to repair the area. At the same time, the relevant personnel were double-checked by the personnel of the Kingdom of Heaven and [Thirteenth Section]. We found the shadow of [Xin Liezhi] in it. .
After this incident, Berlin stopped all applications of nanoscale machines, and its research direction began to completely shift to the field of structures. ]
[Gray Goo (updated entry version): Subsequently, Terra also experienced many unrestricted self-replication and ecological phagocytosis phenomena, including but not limited to: unrestricted reproduction of specialized thaumaturgy, and the reification of the Mimovirus. Breeding, the harmful racial mass breeding created by the Ether Monarch...]
"[Adam], you don't actually need to expand the content for me, I don't want to read it."
Xia Xiu Putting his hand on his forehead, he wanted to say "I won't read or listen" like a child.
When he usually wants to work overtime for his subordinates, he will always ask [Adam] to show them the expansion content and task schedule updates. All social animals know that there are some things at work. Don't listen or watch out of desperation. There is a high probability that these extra tasks will not fall on you.
However, the reason why social animals are social animals is because the environment they live in has a very powerful mechanism - you don’t listen or watch, but your boss and superiors will keep you unaware. It is not your responsibility to observe these.
For example, he often asked [Adam] to send extended content to the management's subordinates without anyone noticing, letting them see the "thriving" Terra, boosting their work morale and attitude, and then By the way, expand their itinerary planning and give more opportunities to young people.
And [Adam], this kid, looks like him in every aspect.
Just like now, in the face of his questioning, [Adam] directly updated a new task to urge him to get down to business quickly and stop fishing.
[The mission diary has been updated——]
[Please kill all the insane deep divers on the coast of Bonifacio. After clearing the target, please go to the ruins discovered by the Administration in the Chalki Mountains in Corsica as soon as possible, explore the contents of the ruins, investigate the traces of divinity inside, and find a feasible method to clear the clouds and fog——]
"Harm——"
There is no need for this child to be so like me.
The blond young man sighed helplessly, and [Sisyphus] behind him was holding the builder's surface-exploded head in a special throwing posture.
[Sisyphus]'s legs are slightly apart, shoulder width apart, his body is slightly tilted back, and his hands hold the builder's head tightly against his chest.
[Sisyphus] made a baseball throwing motion, and his eyes focused on the row of giant deep divers in front of them that were slowly approaching.
Then, he lifted his right leg from the ground, bent his knees and pointed them toward his chest. At the same time, his upper body rotated slightly to the right to accumulate strength for the next throw. Huge twisting waves appeared in the hands holding the head. All kinds of kinetic energy began to surge in one direction.
Buzzing buzzing - the air was compressed to the extreme, and [Sisyphus] quickly swung his right leg forward, and his whole body turned forward like a spring being released, and his waist and hips began to move. Action provides motivation.
As his right arm began to swing forward, the Builder's head rotated rapidly in his hands. At the same time, his left arm opened for balance, as if Wing-like spread on the left side of his body. His fingers tightly grasped the header. In order to ensure its accuracy and speed, his fingers did not slide across the surface of the head until the last moment, releasing the extremely impactful throw.
『Everything·Vector Authority——』
"Vector cannonball!" 』
Boom! ! ! !
A bright light shot out from the vector cannon at an extremely fast speed, almost rushing towards the target before the human eyes had time to react.
At this moment, the deep divers marched neatly in a straight line. The eyes in each deep diver's head emitted a deep blue light, and their eyes were full of unabashed malice and fierceness. The deep diver in the front row seemed to sense something approaching, and he quickly stretched out his hands to block his head.
Bump! ! !
The rapid impact of the cannonball directly penetrated his overlapping arms, and shot straight into the deep diver's forehead, blasting a large bloody hole.
The sound of broken bones and the instantly evaporating blood mist intertwined to form a terrifying harmony.
Almost at the same moment, the deep divers behind also suffered the same fate, falling one after another like dominoes.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The vector elasticity of the ejection was huge, and the flesh and blood bodies were like tissue paper in front of it, tearing every head continuously.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bright red blood and brain matter splashed out, spraying out residue like a drizzle.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Those deep divers who originally moved forward proudly are now just a series of ruins with flesh and blood flying everywhere and skulls broken.
The traces of cannonball penetration were clearly visible. Each deep diver's head left a bloody hole of almost the same size. The surrounding skin, flesh and bones seemed to be torn apart by huge force and were shattered into messy messes.
When the vector cannonball passed through the head of the last deep diver in a straight line, its energy remained undiminished and continued to extend into the distance. It plowed a huge scratch on the beach, and then tore apart with astonishing power. Ocean and fog.
Amidst the strong smoke and bloody smell, those deep divers who survived seemed incompatible with the surrounding scene.
Their original emotionless and cold eyes have been completely replaced by deep fear. Each eyeball bulged out full, revealing a full set of white eyes. The pupils in their eyes seemed to have shrunk to the limit, leaving only a small, deep black spot in the middle.
Only at this moment did the deep diver clearly see the blond young man standing on the cliff, and the terrifying purple-gold figure behind the blond young man who was bending down to pick up stones.
When the deep divers saw [Sisyphus] holding a stone and looking at them, their wild instincts that were more developed than beasts began to arouse, and their breathing became rapid and heavy. The sound of breathing was particularly abrupt in the air.
Thick mist continuously sprayed out from their open mouths, and the white mist formed by the cold air lingered on their faces.
You will die!
You will die! !
You will die! ! !
The bodies of the deep divers also began to tremble subtly.
It was an uncontrollable tremor coming from deep inside. Their bodies, especially those exposed limbs, revealed an uncontrollable tension and fear.
Behind them, the corpses and bloodstains on the ground were the remains of their kind. This was a massacre they had never experienced before. This horrific scene seemed to make it difficult for them to believe their eyes. They were originally tall and mighty, marching tirelessly, but now they were like hay blown by the wind, swaying unsteadily.
Run! ! ! !
They looked around, as if looking for a way to escape. The fear had completely swallowed up their original sharpness, and they began to flee from here like birds and animals.
“Everyone, you have swam all the way from Raleye to travel here. Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Since you are already here, let’s enjoy the feeling of lying flat on the beach.”
The warm breeze blew by, and the gentleness and magnetism echoed in the ears of the fearful deep divers. Every syllable seemed to gently caress the listener's soul.
Then they heard a familiar buzzing sound, which was the compressed sound of the air being overwhelmed.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The deep diver's face was completely swallowed up by despair, and a violent roar began to echo along the entire coastline
"Roar——"
A wail not resembling that of a human being or any known creature pierced the tranquility of the night.
This is the cry from the deep divers. It is extremely shrill and different from all the sounds in the ordinary world.
The wailing started out low, as if coming from deep underground, slowly rising, then rising again, and finally reached an almost harsh and sharp level. This feeling seemed to be gradually being overcome by despair. It is swallowed up,
It is like a mixture of pain, despair and fear, making every creature that hears it feel fearful.
The sound was like cold fingers scratching people's hearts, which was creepy.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Finally, these shrill cries stopped abruptly with loud explosions.
They were miserable, in pain, and helpless. They were quietly pinched by a pair of invisible hands, and were completely annihilated in the suffocation of despair.
What was left under the cloud and mist was the surrounding silence and the suffocating fear. The air was filled with a pungent, almost suffocating smell of blood.
Red looks so weird and scary in the dim light. Mixed in this red are other colors, which are the colors of muscles, internal organs, and bones that have been torn apart.
The scattered pieces of meat and the blood stains everywhere tell people what happened here.
The blond young man stood at the highest point on the coastline, his golden eyes staring calmly at the bloody world. The purple-gold incarnation floated quietly behind him, and the stone in his hand had long since disappeared. .
"Adam, let someone come over and clean up the body."
[Understood. ]
