Translator: 549690339
In the 999th year of the Steel Arms Empire, just before the last night of the Empire’s thousand-year history, the empire suffered a great calamity. A demonic barrier descended from the sky. Marshal Rox led the mutated soldiers to leave, but the calamity did not stop there… …
At this moment, in the secret archives of the Empire, the great scholar responsible for recording the history of the empire was trembling as he used his old tree bark-like hands to record the final historical records of the Steel Arms Empire in the Empire’s archives…
The Sky of the imperial city had not been clear since the natural disaster came. The mutated disaster became more and more intense. First, the animals in the mountains turned into monsters and charged at the city gate. The soldiers struggled to resist the attack, then, the aquatic creatures in the Nice River were also affected by the natural disaster and walked on the Earth. Under this terrifying power, the small fish and shrimp could actually grow into bloodthirsty monsters the size of horses. The entire imperial city was surrounded by impenetrable water… …
Endless Monsters swarmed into the imperial city. Under the situation of the Imperial City’s arcane equipment being completely ineffective, everyone was filled with despair. What was even more desperate than the monsters outside was that after the soldiers killed the monsters, their bodies began to mutate… Just like the soldiers before them, their bodies began to mutate… …
As more and more monsters were killed, everyone who survived would find that they became stronger and stronger. This seemed to give the imperial city even more hope of being protected. But after a month, … The people inside would find that they were becoming more and more like the monsters outside…
The monsters outside would devour each other and become stronger and stronger. A thought arose in everyone’s mind. Would we one day be like the monsters outside?
When the old man wrote this, his hand suddenly stopped. He did not know if the pen was out of ink or if he did not know how to continue writing…
He raised his head and looked outside the door. There were two soldiers standing in shifts outside the archives room. Under the armor of these soldiers were terrifying bodies covered in scales. They seemed to have noticed the old man’s gaze. The eyes of the two soldiers also glanced in this direction.
Those orange-yellow eyes made the old scholar so scared that he almost shook off the pen in his hand. Those cold eyes were like the dense boa that he had once encountered in the Great Western Swamp. They made one’s hair stand on end, under those cold eyes that did not have a trace of warmth, did they really retain the humanity of the past?
The old scholar suddenly had a feeling that perhaps, without waiting for the monsters outside to attack, there might not be any human beings in the imperial capital… . .
——– —
Seagull left the capital only to discover that the portal had been restored. Without hesitation, he activated the portal and brought Raina and her gang, as well as Rox and the mutating soldiers, back to Mars.
Although teleporting in the map of the Black Goat was somewhat risky, it was much safer than walking back to Mars with so many people.
After arriving at the base, Rox and his soldiers were quarantined in a new underground base. As it was not clear whether the energy was beneficial to the infection, they could not live together with the previous imperial soldiers.
Meanwhile, Seer sent the players who were carrying out quests in the imperial capital to the bio-isolation room for a checkup as soon as they returned. Although the players did not have any signs of physical changes.., however, Seer was most concerned about whether their genes were affected.
After putting everything that was important into the program, Seer stayed alone in the Lord’s room to think about his future plans.
Although he had saved rainy and Wugua’s group this time, letting the lord that had escaped from the undead world was the biggest threat now.
The main body was not dead. He could not turn off the level 14 map of the Black Goat at all. It would not take long for the other party to create countless biological weapons that were above the level of this planet. They would form a power that he could not shake… …
When that time came, how would he deal with it?
He only had one bullet. He couldn’t just fire it at a small soldier, right?
Reality proved that, in a situation where the overall situation wasn’t as favorable as the enemy’s, even if he tried some unorthodox methods, it would be useless… …
“Lord, are you worried about the future?”As the only player that hadn’t been affected by the mutated energy, rainy melon wasn’t quarantined. She came to the Lord’s room and saw seer sitting there in a daze, she did not even greet seer when she arrived.
Seer nodded, following which, he sighed and said, “Although we forced the other party to activate the Lich’s phylactery, it was only to stall for time. Even if the other party is temporarily unable to return from the death realm, we, who are unable to close the map of the Black Goat, can only watch as the creatures in that area become stronger and stronger.”
“How strong can they become?”Rainy girl asked curiously.
“If no one controls them, they will evolve freely, and their progress will be much slower…”. Xi Ye pondered for a moment and then said in a low voice, “But it’s still not something that you can compare with your normal training. The conservative estimate is that the creatures in there will evolve to level six within two years.” “…”he paused for a moment and then pointed at the bottle, the star of color that he had put into the bottle said, “If it’s this kind of high-quality otherworldling, then it’s not just…”
Rainy girl, Wu Gua, frowned when she heard that. “Is this method considered cheating?”
“More or less…”. “…”Xi ye smiled bitterly and said, “The drawback of the Black Goat’s illustration is very big. After using it, the energy of that planet will not be able to recover for an extremely long period of time. It’s an act of killing the goose that lays the golden egg. Moreover, the evolved creature can only be a biological weapon with a huge genetic defect. It Won’t be of any help to the construction, but in terms of efficiency, it is indeed that powerful “… “…”
This method of taking advantage of the situation had always been criticized by various forces outside of the biology department. However, one had to admit that this was indeed a way to quickly increase their armed forces.
Thinking of this, Seer felt a headache coming on. Competing with a biology department lord in terms of growth speed was already the most troublesome thing. Moreover, the other party might even be an old lord with many trump cards…
Seer even wondered if there was a way to bring ball D out of the Milky Way…
“Lord, what do you mean by saying that the other party’s Lord can’t come back for the time being?”Rainy girl asked suddenly.
“AH…”. Seer covered her head and replied weakly, “The other party is an undead that walked out of the world of death and has an extremely strong soul. Even if such an existence finds a way out, it still needs a powerful carrier to travel around the world. This is also the reason why the Undead Guild mainly focuses on developing biological systems. Moreover, the highest level of life in this plane is not even level four. It is impossible to carry that powerful soul even if it has been compressed. Therefore, it is necessary to create a high-strength alchemy life form “… “…”
“Oh… so this is why the Liege wanted us to bring his body back?”Rain girl was enlightened.
Seer nodded. That thing not only had high research value, but most importantly, she could not leave it to him… …
“Then how long does the liege think it will take for him to replicate such a body?”Rain girl asked.
“I don’t know…”. “…”. Seer shook his head. “According to the information from the steel valiant empire, shadow stream has been around for a thousand years. In other words, they have used their consciousness to influence this world, which is at least on par with the history of the empire. However, they have only just opened the map of the Black Goat. I think it might be a recently completed alchemy lifeform…”. “…”
“A thousand… a thousand years?”Rain girl asked helplessly… …
“With the arcane civilization of this planet, without the help of high-end biological equipment and high-level alchemists, it is already beyond my common sense to be able to produce something of this level in a thousand years…”Seer said faintly.
“Then… does that mean that it will take a thousand years for it to come out again?”
“That won’t be necessary…”seer said faintly, “If there is a backup copy of the clone, it only needs to be adjusted for a period of time before it can be used again.”
“Then… how long will it take?”Rainy girl asked immediately.
“It depends on the situation. With the backward technology of this planet, it is impossible for the other party to have high-quality equipment. If we rely on free adjustment, it will take at least five years…”
“Five years…”rainy girl suddenly said, “Then we might have a chance!”
“HMM?”
