Chapter 65 White Mist and Statue (4000 words)
While Xie Shen was talking with Li Xiu.
But in another metal cage, there was another burst of electronic synthesis sound.
[The person who was resurrected, name: Zhang Moxuan, born on June 13, 2050. 】
The person who was resurrected this time was a woman.
Same as the previous Shang Ying.
Not long after she was resurrected, she threw herself on a glass pipe next to her without hesitation.
Soon, a large amount of black mist began to pour into her body along the glass tube.
In a short time, the woman also turned into a giant sarcoma.
After turning into a sarcoma, humans can continuously derive great pleasure from it.
This behavior has serious 'addictive' properties.
Once you get it, you can never get rid of it.
This man and woman are completely useless.
But it’s not over yet.
In the metal cage, the man and woman who turned into sarcoma were still absorbing the black mist in the glass pipe.
As the black mist continued to pour into the body, the size of the two tumors began to gradually become larger and larger.
In the end, their bodies finally couldn't hold on any longer, and their whole bodies exploded.
‘Bang’!
The moment the sarcoma explodes, a large amount of white mist can be seen overflowing from it.
"This" Xie Shen saw it and was surprised: "The sarcoma mutated by humans can actually turn black mist into white mist?"
As he said that, he subconsciously looked at Li Xiu and asked, "Have you never noticed it before?"
"Not really."
Li Xiu shook his head and said, "I was The zirconium metal glasses were developed about half a year ago, during your third year of seclusion.”
“After I got the glasses, I started researching the black mist.”
"In total, it only lasts about 4-5 months."
"Because the time is too short, I have not been able to discover many secrets about the black mist until now."
Li Xiu has a strong thirst for knowledge about unknown things.
Sometimes, this thirst for knowledge can even make him risk his own life.
On the metal platform.
Seeing the white mist filling the surroundings, Li Xiu suddenly had a flash of fanaticism in his eyes.
He said: "Xie Shen, can you help me?"
Hearing this, Xie Shen looked towards Li Xiu.
The latter continued: "You cast a spell to guide the white mist and get a small part of it into my body."
This madman.
Although, Xie Shen I feel that Li Xiu's proposal is a little life-threatening.
But out of curiosity, he finally followed Li Xiu's instructions and introduced a small amount of white mist into his body.
"Wow"
The moment the white mist entered his body, Li Xiu couldn't help but moan.
He was breathing rapidly and showed a rare expression of shock: "There are no side effects! Compared with the black mist, I did not feel any discomfort after absorbing the white mist, and I even felt that my physical strength was replenished. , and I feel more energetic!”
Will there be any side effects from absorbing the white mist? ?
Li Xiu's words made Xie Shen freeze on the spot.
With a hint of vigilance, he carefully absorbed a wisp of white mist into his body.
Next second.
Xie Shen also showed a shocked expression.
And compared to Li Xiu, he was even more shocked.
"This white mist," Xie Shen said with a trembling voice, "is no different from spiritual power at all."
"This white mist can completely replace spiritual power, and then be absorbed by the monks!"
< br>"This discovery is so important" Xie Shen emphasized: "If I can mass-produce these white mists, I can even create a sect on the space station!"
"It's not just that." Li Xiu Added from the side: "I have just absorbed this white mist, so I can roughly guess some of its properties: Not surprisingly, this white mist can be used as a clean energy source and converted into heat energy or electrical energy - it Not only can it be absorbed by your monks, it can also be used as energy to develop technology!"
As he spoke, Li Xiuhu put his hand on the zirconium metal glasses and said in a deep voice: "Brain, are you there?"
"Received! Received!" the brain responded positively.
Li Xiu continued: "Help change the system files."
"Unknown energy number 002, scientific name 'White Mist'."
"Acquisition method: A large number of The black mist is injected into the living body, and after purification, the 'white mist' can be obtained."
"Then add a note."
"Function 1: It can be used as clean energy."
"Function 2: It can be absorbed by monks instead of spiritual power."
"Okay, done." Li Xiu just finished speaking. , the brain has already responded: "Is there anything else to add?"
"No more." Li Xiu disconnected from the brain.
At the same time.
I saw Zhuge Fu suddenly speaking from the side: "I suddenly thought of a question."
"Those white mists are certainly useful."
"But the prerequisite for getting the white mist is: we First, there must be a lot of black mist.”
“Black mist is not easy to deal with.”
“This kind of gas will only be produced after people are tortured.”
Zhuge Fu spread his hands and said: "We can't just imprison a group of people and torture them non-stop like Tower Prison, right?"
"After all, everyone is destined to die."
"What if after you die, you will be the next person to be imprisoned and tortured?"
"So this head must not be opened."
"Let's talk about the white mist."
Zhugefu continued: "If you want to obtain Baiwu, you need to have sarcomas specially responsible for purification."
"And sarcomas are all mutated from humans."
"Then if If I remember correctly, people will become addicted after mutating into sarcomas. "
"And the more times they mutate, the harder it will be to quit."
"So, let’s take it. When a person turns into a sarcoma, it is like pushing him into the abyss of eternal destruction.”
"So."
Zhugefu looked at Li Xiu and Xie Shen.
Like a judge, he questioned the two of them: "Have you decided which one you want to push into the abyss?"
The moral bottom line is always something that human society cannot avoid. a question.
People are selfish.
Therefore, everyone wants to step on the moral bottom line under their feet.
But as human beings, we cannot do that.
Because this will lead to the collapse of the entire human civilization. Once humans are separated from society, it will be difficult to live alone.
So humans need a moral bottom line.
In view of this, Li Xiu thought for a long time and then said: "As for the black mist, it is not impossible to collect it."
"After all, people will have pain as long as they live."
"Birth, old age, illness and death, separation of loved ones, and loss of love."
"So even if we do nothing, we can still get out of the space station , a certain amount of black mist has been collected.”
“Although the number is definitely not as large as that of the Tower Prison.”
“But it is just to train some monks like Xie Shen to be used as a space station. The high-level combat power should be enough.”
"Okay then, the problem of the black mist is solved." Zhugefu followed closely: "What about the sarcoma?"
"This is also easy to solve." Li Xiu said: "Among us humans, There are many drug addicts. "Although resurrection can refresh the state of these addicts and help them get rid of drug dependence physically"
"But the mind is addicted. , but it is impossible to quit no matter how many times it is resurrected."
"Especially the kind of severe addiction."
"So according to regulations, our space station will not take the initiative to resurrect any drug addict."
"They can only suffer in the tower prison."
"I understand what you mean. "Zhugefu said thoughtfully: "Are you planning to let this special group mutate into sarcoma?"
"Yes." Li Xiu nodded and said, "And I won't force it. They.”
“Have they been tortured by addiction, or have they become sarcomas.”
"The choice is all theirs."
"This is not a choice at all." Zhugefu frowned: "I don't believe you can't guess: for drug addicts, they will 100% choose Become a sarcoma and enjoy the endless pleasure."
"Without human forced intervention, they will never be able to become ordinary people."
"You are sacrificing them on your own initiative. "
"Indeed. This is a sacrifice," Li Xiu acquiesced: "But the development of human beings will always require sacrifices."
"These."
"They are just necessary sacrifices."
Alas.
Zhuge Fu sighed softly and stood silent.
On the metal platform.
While everyone was silent, they suddenly felt a suction force coming from the surrounding glass pipes.
Affected by the suction, a large amount of white mist began to pour into the glass pipe, and continued to flow along the glass pipe to the bottom of the tower.
Xie Shen saw it and guessed: "I estimate that there is probably some kind of generator-like device at the bottom of the tower. That device can convert the white mist into electrical energy, and then power the entire tower prison. .”
“Well, it’s indeed very possible.”
Zhu Gefu nodded in agreement.
He turned to Li Xiu and asked: "Should we continue to explore to the bottom of the tower?"
"Continue going deeper!" Li Xiu looked up at the sky and added: "However, before continuing down, We’d better wait for Mage and the others first.”
It’s really not fun to modify people’s climbing ability.
Xie Shen and the others waited on the metal platform for a long time, and Ma Ge and the other three reformers had just arrived.
After.
A group of six people repeated their old tricks again:
Xie Shen led Zhuge Fu and Li Xiu to the bottom of the tower by jumping and climbing.
The three transformed humans, including Mag, relied on their own strength to move downwards little by little with their hands and feet.
…
The underground part of Tower Prison seems to have no end.
Xie Shen took Li Xiu and Zhuge Fu and jumped on the glass pipe for half an hour, but they still couldn't see the bottom of the tower.
Don’t say Xie Shen.
At this moment, even Zhuge Fu, who had not exerted any effort throughout the whole process, seemed a little impatient.
‘Impatient’ is a feeling of gratitude.
It is not affected by the underground curse.
Therefore, Zhuge Fu, who is an underground man, also has the emotion of 'impatient'.
"Ouch, I can't do it anymore."
In the air.
Zhugefu couldn't help but complain: "I feel like I'm going to faint after being carried and jumped for so long."
"How deep is this tower prison?" ?”
"How long do we have until we get to the bottom of the tower?"
"Don't scream." Xie Shen said dissatisfied: "If you really can't stand it anymore, I can just let go and throw you down."
"In this way, you can be resurrected directly to the space station."
"That's not necessary." Zhugefu said with a smile: "I will just say a few words, nothing else. Meaning.”
“I still want to see what the bottom of the tower is like.”
After an interlude, everyone continued to move downwards.
Nearly half an hour passed like this.
Xie Shen discovered:
After reaching this depth, many strange statues with exactly the same shape began to appear inexplicably on the surrounding walls.
These weird statues are ugly.
Just one glance made Xie Shen unconsciously think of the shape of the Tower Prison - a shape that was completely contrary to human aesthetics.
In addition, you can also see:
At the very center of each statue, there is a glass pipe connected to it. The glass pipe is transporting a large amount of white mist into the body of the statue.
Xie Shen found a place where he could stay and put Li Xiu and Zhuge Fu down.
The three began to study the strange statues around them.
"What are these statues?" Zhuge Fu saw it and couldn't help complaining: "Really, I have never seen such an ugly statue in my life."
"This feeling, like While surfing on the sea, I was suddenly surrounded by countless Cthulhus."
"No matter where you look, you can see those surprisingly ugly statues."
"And then you. The san value started to drop continuously."
"This" Xie Shen said with the same feeling: "Don't say it, your metaphor is quite vivid."
During the conversation between the two.
Zhugefu suddenly found that Li Xiu beside him was stunned, staring intently at the nearest statue.
"Hey!" Zhugefu said anxiously: "Li Xiu, are you okay? Wake up!"
"Don't be so nervous, okay."
Li Xiu Wuyu said: "I was neither controlled nor brainwashed just now. I was just trying to memorize the shape of this statue so that when I return to the laboratory, I can recreate the statue using the same materials. ”
"Re-engraving?" Zhugefu glanced at the statues around him and said helplessly: "This is the only way to do it."
"Not to mention these statues, they are all made of alloy. It can’t be removed.”
“Even if we can remove it, it would be difficult for the three of us to carry these statues, which are as tall as one person, from the bottom of the tower all the way back to the space station.”
“That’s why. "Li Xiu took the words and said: "If you want to study these statues, you can only forcefully write down their shapes." After saying that, he ignored Zhuge Fu and just continued to observe the statues attentively. Come.
Li Xiu does not have the trait of 'emotion'.
So even if you keep staring at the statue, you won’t feel disgusted.
But Zhuge Fu and Xie Shen couldn't do this. They couldn't stare at the statue for too long, so they just stayed beside Li Xiu quietly.
Time passes minute by minute.
“Poof!”
suddenly.
Without any warning, Li Xiu spurted out a large pool of blood from his mouth and fell down with his head tilted upward.
It was about to fall to the bottom of the tower.
Fortunately, Xie Shen reacted quickly enough.
The moment Li Xiu fell, he reached out and grabbed Li Xiu's arm.
With just one exertion of force, he easily pulled it back.
Shao Qian.
After Li Xiu came to his senses, Xie Shen hurriedly asked him: "What happened just now? Did you faint because you were staring at those statues?"
After a while There is one more chapter.
