The place where Zero needs Bai Wu to go is in the central part of Menan Country, a very prosperous city - Sanchez City.
But before that, Bai Wu still greeted Wen Hao and learned some things from him.
"So I spent... thirteen days in the forbidden area?"
"Yes."
Bai Wu thought about it and seemed to have found some clues.
In order to deal with the stalker, he used the power of the well and the sword of jealousy, but then, after the stalker left, Xiao Yugan opened a vortex that led into Jingsan's memory world... When he woke up, his body had regained its combat capability.
Bai Wu realized that this process was missing a recovery stage.
It seems that it was Xiao Yugan who did it. He returned his lost memory about Liu Chengzi to him, and at the same time, according to the rules, took away his existing memory of recovering from his injuries.
Bai Wu always thought he was very efficient, but he was also delayed for more than ten days.
Fortunately, during the ten days or so, some minor incidents occurred, but they were easily resolved.
Bai Wu then began to tell Wen Hao about other things.
Although Wen Hao knew something about the memory world, Bai Wu was now the expert in this area.
After explaining everything clearly, he told Wen Hao not to bring anyone into the forbidden area easily again, and also asked Wen Hao to protect the forbidden area.
No longer facing the dried fish, Bai Wu's desire to deceive people came back:
"There are many secrets hidden here. It may be the key to saving the world and bringing Shengguo back to the world in the future."
Wen Hao’s trust in Bai Wu cannot be said to be complete trust, but it can be said that he has no doubt about it.
After that, Bai Wu left with satisfaction, preparing to head to Menan Sanchez City.
Wen Hao and this Ark are both huge combat forces. Bai Wu has a hunch that after a more powerful enemy appears... they will have a chance to cooperate again.
But before that, we have to get rid of a few of the farm's vanguards first.
But what’s interesting is that when Bai Wu asked about the details of the so-called mechanical deity, Zero didn’t reveal much.
As the white fog crossed the sea at high speed and headed for Meinan Country, the conversation went like this.
“Why should I go to the Galaxy Plaza in Sanchez City?”
That's not your question.
"Why do you speak in a secretive way like someone else?"
Because the questions you asked were not good enough.
Okay, it’s not that you don’t know how to answer, but the question is so bad that Bai Wu was speechless for a moment.
"Deus ex Machina, is there someone who has the same idea as you?"
It is not an idea, but a direction. However, because the difference in quantity is too great, a qualitative difference has also arisen. It is probably the difference between a family and a country.
"Alright, alright, I know you're awesome. I just have to follow your plan, right?"
It should be so.
Bai Wu is actually still very curious. The development of science and technology is reflected in the fields of information, advanced physics, and biochemistry.
Zero is supposed to be the god of information, but can he really reverse this deus ex machina
…
…
Technology has great significance, at least among human beings today.
Some people also say that the Fourth World War in the human world will be fought with sticks and stones, which means that the current level of technology is enough to destroy the world.
As for when this war will come, no one knows.
What is even more regrettable is that the end of the world has come before the technological war has even begun.
While all countries were on high alert against the black fog, they were still united. This is how humans always behave when facing external enemies. Therefore, the Third World War that would have destroyed the world did not start after all.
Humans unanimously began to study the black fog.
The black fog has frightened all nations for seven hundred years, and in the past seven hundred years, all nations have never stopped exploring the black fog. However, the results of the exploration are very limited, so limited that they can be summed up in a few words - no results.
Therefore, if the various force fields within the black fog spread outside the black fog, it can be said that the blow to the human world would be extinct.
At least in terms of scientific and technological civilization, it is absolute suppression.
But repression is not the most frightening thing.
It's like killing a person and making him completely lose his life breath, which brings fear to the people around him. It's far less terrible than letting a person become a monster to bite and persecute the people around him.
During the time when the white fog entered the memory world - thirteen days, everyone in the world began to feel fear because of technology.
…
…
As early as seven hundred years ago, the world had entered an era of the Internet of Everything. Although human technology has not made much progress, over the course of seven hundred years, many imperfect technologies have begun to be improved.
Almost all items that are closely related to people's lives can be controlled through the Internet, and the closer they are to life, the more so.
If there were no mysterious obstacles, human technology would probably move towards the "terminal" at the living level, and adjust all aspects of life through a device.
Although the technology of the world outside the fog has not reached that level, people still felt great fear when the mechanical deity came.
Thirteen days ago, when people were keenly discussing topics such as "Light Lost Man" and giant cruise ships, something strange happened.
It started with the eerie flickering of electric lights at night.
It was like a supernatural event. People found it very interesting at first, but then their expressions turned horrified.
Because gradually people realized... the frequency of the flashing lights seemed to be according to Morse code, expressing some terrifying meaning.
In places where neon lights are densely packed, the message of "the end of the world is coming, distortion is approaching" is conveyed directly through the shapes of the light arrangements.
People soon realized that this might be some kind of prank.
But when they started to investigate or spread some things because they thought it was fun, people were shocked to find out that—
The lights all over the world seemed to be going out of control.
The night passed in constant flickering. In the gaps between darkness and light, people realized that something bad seemed to be happening.
In the next few days, more and more strange things happened.
Some people listen to music on their mobile phones and find that countless songs are constantly switching, which seems chaotic.
For example, in the last second you were still singing "You love me, I love you, Mixue Ice City is sweet", and before it was finished, the next second it suddenly changed to "Today is a good day".
Of course, this is just an example.
In reality the music is much more chaotic.
It's not just music, the same is true for TV. People turn on the TV and find that the remote control is no longer useful.
All video equipment is constantly switching between various programs. One second it might be Approaching Science, and the next second it might be an actor in a drama speaking a certain line.
Chaotic, but orderly.
Because the frequency of switching music and programs is getting faster and faster, people have noticed that... Whether it is music or programs, it seems that the first word of each sentence in these switching channels can be connected to form a sentence -
The end is coming, the distortion is coming.
This time, humans became even more panicked.
They looked at the flickering lights at night and were afraid to fall asleep.
What is fear
Fear is when something in reality that is so familiar to you suddenly becomes unfamiliar.
The end of the world is coming, and distortion is coming. This fear from human technological civilization has just begun to spread!
On the seventh day, computers, mobile phones, huge TV advertising walls, and all the other information acquisition tools people were used to using had already skipped the hint stage and began to clearly convey one sentence:
The end is coming, the distortion is coming.
It was as if all the computers were infected with a virus and this was the only sentence people could see.
On the ninth day, car accidents began to occur all over the world, and the transportation system was completely paralyzed.
Because any system controlled by information has stopped functioning, and it seems that the only purpose is to tell people that the end of the world is coming and distortion is approaching.
Due to the paralysis of information networks, many companies were unable to operate normally, and a large number of people realized that some super-powerful force was controlling everything about human beings.
Therefore, people who used to be able to feed themselves suddenly lost the existing technological support and fell into a state of being constrained in every aspect of life.
Most of their social activities, including making friends, traveling, and working, are restricted.
Something that people had imagined but could never happen in reality finally happened—
Humans use the Internet to transmit information, but they are also "trapped" by the Internet.
Some people realized that it seemed that some terrifying force was forcing humans to abandon existing technology.
"Perhaps we'll go back to the eighteenth century?"
This is such an optimistic statement. “Technology” is not dead, it has just become the monster’s pawn.
When everything in life begins to be controlled, they will understand—
It's not that technology has abandoned them, it's that technology is playing with them.
The sweeping robot began to move around aimlessly, its signal light flashing red in the dark, like the eyes of a wolf.
The household vacuum cleaner suddenly made a buzzing sound, bringing a terrifying fear into the silence.
The food in the refrigerator began to rot. When I opened the refrigerator, a stench and heat wave overwhelmed me.
The old man was awakened by the heat and found that the temperature of the air conditioner had reached an outrageous number. He wanted to go out and drink some water, but even the water purification equipment started to act up and the cup was full of turbid sewage.
The person who was taking a shower screamed because the shower head suddenly began to gush out 74° hot water.
Rumors of the end of the world gradually spread, and everyone lived in great fear.
But don't think that these minor incidents are over.
On the twelfth day, "Revelation" appeared on the huge display screen of hundreds of square meters in Sanchez's Galaxy Plaza.
The most powerful tool that humans are proud of is wisdom.
Relying on wisdom, humans, with their not-so-strong bodies, have become the masters of this world.
But now, the crystallization of human wisdom is beginning to turn away from humans.
This huge fear is even worse than the Ark crashing into the island and the ugly monsters destroying the city.
Because it seems to deprive mankind of the fruits of thousands of years of hard work.
When night falls, the whole world falls into darkness, and countries are suffering from a disaster called "civilization" that is more terrible than "disease".
All the lights can no longer be turned on, but there is still light occasionally, coming from various smart devices.
But without the lights, the whole city was pitch black. Those tiny bright spots were not enough to brighten the night. They were more like fireflies that occasionally flashed in the endless darkness.
Countless people around the world have seen the content of Sanchez's "revelation" in Galaxy Plaza through various smart devices.
Human beings are ugly, selfish, greedy, and fragile. God will punish them with infinite fear, which will not disappear but will only increase. The final result is that humans will gain enlightenment in the infinite fear - this is the Book of Revelation.
The coming of doomsday cannot be stopped, and the spread of fear requires death. Next, the first spread.
Countdown: 12000s.
The countdown to the Apocalypse has begun. Twelve thousand seconds, more than three hours, is a very short time and people don’t know what will happen after the countdown ends.
But some places already knew it in advance.
Abnormal content was discovered in the defense departments of Menan, Orlo, Fuyo New Island, Fuyo Old Island, and Kanazawa Province.
Although the computer systems of various countries were paralyzed not long ago, they did not realize the seriousness of the matter, or if they did, the reality was even more terrifying.
In the Orlo Ministry of Defense, the highest military leader was listening to his subordinates' reports with sweat all over his forehead.
"Our intercontinental missiles, neutron bombs, and even... hydrogen bombs were activated more than ten minutes ago and are ready to launch!"
"Stop it now! Stop it now!"
"Sorry sir, can't stop. Now everything we do... doesn't make any sense."
"Where is the target?"
"The target is Johnson Island. Our current firepower alone is enough to kill all residents of Johnson Island an average of 17,000 times..."
"Nuclear fallout will render Johnson Island off-limits for the next four hundred years. Our weapons... will destroy our allies..."
The officer in charge of the report spoke in a heavy tone.
The same was true for all countries at this time, and the people of Johnson Island did not even realize that a catastrophe was about to come.
Three hours is so short—
Soon, those huge monsters in the military bases of various countries began to start up and enter the launch-ready status.
Finally, the countdown is over.
The content on the huge screen suddenly changed from text to pictures.
In the picture, above Johnson Island, countless missiles that are powerful enough to destroy the country are falling towards Johnson Island at a high speed.
In Sanchez City, in the Mil Empire Building, the Queen of Clubs showed a proud look.
In another twenty seconds, beautiful mushroom clouds will bloom over Johnson Island.
He counted the numbers silently, thinking that everyone in the world was watching this "apocalypse", and that mankind's fear was about to bloom along with the mushroom cloud, he was extremely excited.
The Queen of Hearts and the Queen of Spades both failed. The Queen of Clubs thought that this was because the Light Loser was indeed too powerful in the battle.
This person was most likely from the Mist, a place their father would not allow them to go.
But even if you come from inside the fog, you can't be omnipotent. At least in the field of science and technology, no one inside or outside the fog can be your opponent.
The countdown he had been silently counting was finally over, and the Queen of Clubs opened his eyes excitedly, waiting for the fear from the whole world.
Everything was just as he had imagined. What he saw was the scene of Johnson Island being bombarded by all kinds of missiles that humans were proud to use for self-destruction.
“Hahahaha… This is the true divine punishment. It’s so beautiful. The trajectory of the explosion is so beautiful!”
Massive death has already occurred. Even if Guang Shixia appears at this time, what can he do
The radiation from this horrible place will turn the entire Johnson Island into hell. Millions of people will be evaporated in an instant, and no one can save this place!
And this scene has been seen by people all over the world... People all over the world will be shocked by this "beautiful view"!
Next, this fear will be progressive. After Johnson Island, it will be Fuyo Island. After Fuyo Island, it will be Kanazawa. After Kanazawa, it will be Menan.
All of humanity's means of escape and transportation systems have been paralyzed. They can only continue to deepen the concentration of distortion in this despair and fear!
Ding.
When Meihua Q was imagining the future, a strange prompt sound suddenly appeared on Meihua Q's computer, interrupting Meihua Q's thoughts.
"The video is finished."
What should have been a live broadcast of satellite surveillance footage... suddenly froze.
And in the middle of the screen, a huge triangle symbol appeared, symbolizing the pause of the video.
Plum Blossom Q was stunned on the spot. He couldn't react to this huge change. How could the live broadcast become a video
Shouldn't it continue to broadcast the image of Johnson Island being completely bombed? What's wrong with the video
Fear will build in layers.
When Queen of Clubs tried to turn off the video on the supercomputer, he suddenly realized... he could do nothing.
No matter what I do, the computer doesn't respond.
And on the huge screen, a string of words suddenly appeared -
Revelation 1, God said, let there be light.
When this line of words appeared on Plum Blossom Q's computer screen, all the lights that were turned off around the world lit up at that moment.
The night scene that people had not seen for several days appeared again all over the world.
In Galaxy Square, countless street lights light up, illuminating the entire square.
Plum Blossom Q's body trembled slightly, and his head shook subconsciously. He couldn't believe what was happening. A chill surged from his spine.
His display interface changed again.
Hello, rookie. I’m Zero. Are you ready to see a true deus ex machina
