Outside the tower, unknown area.
Bai Wu looked around and found that the surroundings looked like an abandoned farm. He could see the skeletons of huge creatures covered in mud.
There were even mushrooms growing on it.
He could also see barns and residential buildings. He was outside the building at the moment and heard the sounds from inside.
The technological level of Sheng Kingdom seven hundred years ago was similar to the world in which Bai Wu lived in his previous life.
There are densely populated cities with high technological coverage, such as Baichuan, Shudu, Food City, and Denglin. There are also many suburban environments.
Compared to the "farm" that the well is responsible for, this farm seems like a farm ruled by the dead. The grass is yellow, bones are everywhere, and the barns and buildings are dilapidated, but the interesting thing is... there are sounds inside.
When Bai Wu left the tower and touched the black stone tablet, he saw the following note:
I have to say that this world is very strange. When several things happen at the same time, it becomes an inevitable coincidence. In the past few months, you have redistributed resources and power in the tower. And outside the tower, a distorted redistribution also occurred.
The number of black and red areas has decreased, but the number of purple and blue areas has increased significantly, and the white area, guess what? Hey, it's gone! The stone tablet can no longer accurately place you in the area with the corresponding danger level. It is now... just an ordinary portal.
This passage made Bai Wu guess that in the past three months, perhaps because of the opening of the well, the regional boundaries disappeared, causing many evil spirits to begin to move.
The distortion concentration of a region consists of two components.
The first is evil, the second is the environment.
The stronger the evil, the higher the concentration of distortion; the more distorted the rules in the environment, the higher the concentration of distortion.
The environment will not change now, but because the boundaries between regions are blurred, the evil ones begin to migrate.
Three months is neither long nor short.
Many areas may remain the same, while the evil in some areas may merge with the evil in other areas.
The evil in many areas are just a few scattered intelligent species, plus a bunch of non-intelligent species dominated by desire.
This also made the intelligent species very lonely for seven hundred years, and they could only stay in one place. Now everything has changed.
Naturally, no one would be willing to go to a place where the rules are so bad that even an evil person wouldn't want to live there.
Most evil creatures also hope to find an environment suitable for survival.
Therefore, the white and blue areas with low distortion levels become popular areas.
But this does not mean that the humans in the tower can go to the red and purple areas. After all, without information, various rules are more deadly than evil.
In short, evil also likes places where the rules are not so twisted and the climate is mild.
Just like the development of human cities, coastal cities, plains and river basins will always be more lively.
Baichuan City, a place where humans and evil coexist, might become a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.
After seeing the stone tablet, Bai Wu quickly and briefly simulated the origin of society and came to some conclusions.
In the past, monsters were restricted to certain areas, so few of them could establish their own forces. However, the mechanical city of No. 0 built a huge mechanical tribe by absorbing souls. This was a special case.
The farm is very mysterious and no one knows where the children come from.
The Tower is considered a force. Although human forces can be said to be everywhere, the randomness of the stone tablets has prevented humans from drawing maps for a long time.
Finally, there are the forces of Yellow Spring Island and Black Gold Island.
Both islands have people who can ignore regional restrictions, one is Jingwu and the other is the judge.
These are all the forces Bai Wu has come into contact with so far, but he speculates that... many new forces will rise soon.
These forces may be small, or they may be unprecedentedly large.
At this moment, he was outside the farm building and heard the conversation inside.
"We met three months ago, and we hit it off right away and became brothers. Seven hundred years ago, we all came from all corners of the country. You, the second brother, are from Shudu, and you, the third brother, are from Shicheng."
"Old Four, you have always been timid, and that man looks fierce. I don't think you dare to provoke him."
"Old Five, you said you were from the tower, and you only became like this a year ago. I believe you have some sense of propriety."
"Old Six, you are a slave who escaped from Black Gold Island. I believe you follow the rules and know who you can and cannot offend."
"But one of the six of us must have done something wrong,"
Bai Wu was delighted when he heard this. Did the people here hold a struggle session? Six evil people became sworn brothers
Bai Wu left the tower in search of the cruise ship.
The cruise ship has already broken through the black fog, but the cruise ship itself is within the black fog, and it is a specific area, so he wants to try his luck.
But trying your luck in such a vast area is a pipe dream in itself, so Bai Wu decided to start his exploration from the area he randomly arrived at.
So he came to the farm.
Using the old method, when looking around with the Eye of Prell, Bai Wu knew that this was the outskirts of Denglin City. Denglin City was to the west of Baichuan City, which was also the direction that Wujiu was heading.
Bai Wu happened to get news about the captain. In the following classic conversation, he heard that the captain was still alive, which made him very excited.
"That shorty is very dangerous. I told you not to provoke him. Watch your mouth! Even though his body is weak... and smells good... he is damn dangerous! Who among you provoked him? Old Seven and Old Eight are still unconscious! He even gave me a warning!"
"If I didn't have this organ, I would have been scared to death on the spot!" The boss was very excited.
When he heard the dwarf, Bai Wu felt his DNA moving, and then his DNA continued to move.
The second brother: "Brother, you know me well. If I were to provoke that shorty... I would definitely die on the spot."
The third brother: "Brother, you know me well. I like to be passive. It is always others who provoke me, never me who provokes others."
The fourth brother: "Brother, you know me well. I am not interested in people. I like evil."
Lao Wu: "Brother, you know me well. That dwarf is a famous person in the tower. I can't possibly bully him."
Lao Liu: "Don't look at me, brother, you know me. I only like big guys. Short guys don't suit my taste."
The boss took a quick glance:
"I can tell that each of you has special skills. But someone among us must have offended him. Fortunately, this dwarf has a good temper and is not the kind of person who kills evil at the sight of him, otherwise we would all be dead!"
"Could it be... that the Seventh and Eighth Brothers did it?" asked a younger brother.
"Don't I know about the Seventh and Eighth Brothers? They look fierce on the outside, but they haven't eaten a single person so far. When they're hungry, they go to the woods to hunt rabbits."
"But that person has a cat... Could it be that someone has provoked the cat?"
cat
Bai Wu guessed that the dwarf mentioned by these evil guys was the captain, but why was there a cat beside the captain
Would the captain beat the "Seventh Brother" and "Eighth Brother" mentioned by this evil guy unconscious just for a cat
It's not impossible, considering the captain's skills... leaving him unconscious is considered holding back.
But is the Captain really still alive
Of course he hoped that the captain was alive, but if the captain was still alive, for more than ninety days... did that mean that the captain had more than five hundred negative attributes
Is this still a human being
From a probability perspective, Bai Wu believed that the captain could not withstand so many negative attributes, and even he himself could not withstand it.
And it was strange that the captain had a cat with him. He quickly deduced that maybe there was something wrong with the cat? Maybe it was the cat that allowed the captain to survive
What cat is that? Doraemon or Beerus
However, Bai Wu did not go in to ask. Some funny people in the room gave him some good news, so he prepared to leave and continue exploring.
The people in the room didn't know that there was a human being outside the fog. An unconventional human being.
…
…
After leaving the farm, there is a woodland where Bai Wu encountered some non-intelligent species.
It was easily solved by the white fog.
He realized one thing, the ecosystem was unfolding.
If regional restrictions disappear... and if they disappear permanently, then the evil ones will soon establish various survival rules due to various needs.
An era of true evil and depravity is coming.
The intelligent species have fallen into evil and become the rulers of the world outside the tower, while the non-intelligent species will probably play the role of wild beasts
Pure humanity is harder to define.
Whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, Bai Wu didn't know. But he knew very well that the concentration of distortion was diluted... which meant that the tower would reappear.
Today's tower has two endings.
One ending is that the seal on the sixth floor slowly penetrates the power system of the tower builder, masters new power, and eventually unseals itself.
The tower might not be able to be destroyed from the inside... but it also might not be able to trap the monster.
Another possibility is that the tower appeared, was found by one of the six wells arranged by the seal, and then destroyed from the outside.
And once that monster appears, I'm afraid that other places where the sealed monster is will also be found by this monster.
Bai Wu could sense that the monster on the seventh floor of the tower was very powerful... but not in its complete form, at least... not very smart. Perhaps it was also related to the fact that it was cut off from all external perception by the tower.
As Bai Wu walked and thought, his thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
There is a big tree in this woodland.
There were more than a dozen mummies hanging on the huge trees. When the wind blew, they bumped into each other. Bells were tied to the mummies.
This is not the work of the evil one. There are many traditional cultures in the ancient Sheng Kingdom. Bells are tied to the feet of tree burials to prevent the soul from getting lost. This is the largest tree in several nearby areas. In the town ahead, you will meet someone you want to see.
Who do I want to meet
team leader
Bai Wu thought it was most likely the captain, but it didn't seem certain. Besides the captain, who else would he want to see
He began to look for the town.
The journey seemed long, but Bai Wu walked quickly. On the way to the town, Bai Wu did not stop thinking.
He suddenly felt that he had stayed in the tower for too long, because the world outside seemed to have changed too much.
Moreover, I don’t know what kind of changes will happen to the world outside the fog in three months. I feel like I am in another world.
It’s like an old player who has missed several updates and is already unfamiliar with the game content.
Just when Bai Wu was thinking about how to optimize the path and obtain information outside the tower and outside the fog in the shortest possible time, Bai Wu's plug-in received a message.
I am number zero. Please reply if you received the message.
Bai Wu, who was about to head to a mysterious town, was stunned.
"I am Bai Wu."
Finally got in touch with you.
Bai Wu was a little puzzled. Zero usually wouldn't look for him. The last time he looked for him, it was Jingwu and Jinger who launched the attack.
Why this time
"What happened? You sound like you have contacted me many times?" Bai Wu asked.
Zero also got straight to the point:
The Mechanical City is very busy these days. Your behavior puzzles me. My ability is to accept souls and integrate them into the mechanical core.
"I know."
I invited you to come to the Mechanical City before, but you said you didn't want to come because of the Survey Corps, so I thought you had thought it through a while ago.
Bai Wu gradually sorted out the logic and he understood.
Zero also quickly gave an explanation:
Recently, the number of souls stored in soul fragments has increased sharply. Most of them are from the Tower, and there are also many from the Survey Corps. I thought you had figured it out and finally decided to bring the Survey Corps to join me.
Bai Wu didn't know whether to say that Zero was very persistent. Maybe that was how cyborgs were stubborn
"Something happened in the tower, and many people died."
Zero doesn't care. He is indifferent to the death of humans. He only cares about one thing:
So it is most appropriate for you to die now. If you don't like the structure of the core city, if you die now, I can build a tower, rebuild the ecology, and simulate the environment inside the tower.
Bai Wu thought to himself, what a good guy.
"You should manage your mechanical city well. Just treat it as... a population explosion in the mechanical city. Also... treat them well."
Pieces of the doomsday puzzle, gathering souls.
The puzzle piece in Zero's hand has powerful abilities. In a sense, it can compete with the life and death power of Huangquan Island.
But not every soul of a dead person can be found. Even most people cannot be found.
It’s just that half of the people in the tower died, and the base number was too large, which led to some misjudgments by Zero.
I thought Bai Wu had figured it out and realized that being human has its limits, so he brought the people from the Tower to join the Mechanical City.
Bai Wu said:
"I just wanted to contact you. I've been in the tower for the past few months and haven't been aware of changes in the outside world. After the regional restrictions were lifted, it seems that there have been great changes. Have you made any new discoveries in the past few months?"
The Mechanical City is the most powerful reinforcement for the shelter. When Zero discovered that the regional restrictions had been lifted, he knew that Baichuan City might face this situation in the future, so he built the Core City No. 2 -
The moat of the refuge.
The powerful protective net can be regarded as an area of physical construction.
Over the past three months, because the Soul Gathering had continuously collected souls from the High Tower, No. 0 knew that something might have happened in the High Tower.
In addition to trying to contact Bai Wu, Zero is also trying to find a way to spread the mechanical city.
This diffusion does not refer to diffusion in the physical sense. He has also achieved some results.
I don't know about the changes in other areas, because the division of the mechanical city is based on protective devices, so for me, the changes are not big. But the mechanical city has expanded, and I do have some news to share with you, which you should be very interested in.
Bai Wu obviously forgot that Zero's strongest point was not his combat power. For a moment, he did not understand the meaning of "Mechanical City Expansion".
"what news?"
After my attempts, the Mechanical City has successfully established contact with the communication station outside the Black Mist. In short, you can now get information about the world outside the Black Mist from me.
