After we waited for a while, and found that no more energy creatures appeared, so we ended the experiment for the time being.

So far, we've roughly figured out the scope and specific spawning process of these energy creatures in the early stages of spawning, as well as the order in which they attack targets.

But...... There are still a lot of questions that have not been clarified.

The most important of these is still what are the conditions for the generation of these energy creatures, and how the specific number is defined, these two points are not found out from our previous experiments, and Gechai said that if you want to determine this, you must do a lot of repeated experiments, and then through big data comparison to draw conclusions.

However, we don't have that much time now, so we can only blur it for the time being, after all, I believe that the maximum number of these energy creatures will not be too exaggerated, because my energy is still limited after all, and it is impossible to generate indefinitely.

In fact, the most important thing now is what the specific conditions for the generation of these energy creatures are, because I still can't guarantee that when I am sleeping or distracted, these energy creatures will be generated to the point that other people's lives will be endangered. Therefore, we finally settled on a plan to send personnel on duty on a 24-hour basis, and to notify me as soon as we noticed that an energetic creature appeared and intended to harm others.

Next, our people spent about three days sorting out all the supplies they planned to carry, during which we further observed the conditions under which I generated energy creatures, and the observation of the crowd combined with my own feelings finally concluded a certain pattern.

The thoughts I had feared about hurting energy creatures during sleep were actually superfluous, because nothing happened to me during my sleep during the three days.

We initially thought that energy creatures would only spawn around me if I had enough recuperation, enough energy in my body, and I myself was absolutely awake at the time.

There is no doubt that abundant energy is naturally the condition for the generation of energy creatures, and the explanation given by Gechai about the generation of energy creatures when they are awake is that if these energy creatures want to really obtain a certain degree of self-meaning, they must be obtained from the energy source, so when they are generated, I must remain absolutely awake.

If this is true, it means that I have finally found a way to artificially control the spawning of these creatures. I definitely can't do it when it comes to inhibiting my thinking, because I can't knock myself out all the time...... But I can control it from the aspect of energy, as long as I deliberately keep the energy in my body in a state of deficiency, then the possibility of these energy creatures appearing is quite low.

In addition, we discovered another property of these energy creatures on the last day, which is that they actually disappear on their own after a period of time after spawning. Contrary to the process of spawning, the duration of these creatures has nothing to do with me, and they will almost completely disappear within two hours of appearing, regardless of the conditions.

Before we set out, all the results of our detection could stop there, and on the fourth day, our large force was fully prepared, and there was a message of safety from the border of Dong Kou Province, and we were ready to go.

In fact, from the time we moved into Dongkou Province and found the sewer camp, until we left now, we haven't even arrived for two months, which is very short compared to our other camps.

However...... Our men were actually at the safest time in this sewer camp, at least there were no mass deaths, but in any case, it was much better than the previous days of fear.

Before leaving, at Amy's suggestion, I had a long talk with Sasha, the American woman we had captured.

Amy was working as a translator, and now she was starting to respond to our questions, so we were able to have a full conversation.

I was the first to ask her and her teammates what the purpose of this trip was, I wonder if she already understood that we had already known their motives from Ouyang Shuo's mouth, anyway, this time Sasha told us truthfully that they were here for Yuechen.

And the reason why they wanted to rob Moon Dust was to find out what the source of the energy in her body was. As for killing Moon Dust, it was actually not in their plan at all, that is, it was not necessary for them to kill Moon Dust as we were worried about before.

In this way, I killed those Americans......

I'm not going to tell you about the death of her teammates just yet, and I don't know if any of them survived, so I can't say for sure. Second, I don't want this Sasha to lose control of her emotions, after all, judging from the previous death of her teammates in the underground layer, she still takes her own people's lives and safety very seriously.

Then I focused on asking what the connection between their American military chaplaincy and voodoo was, and Sasha said that only their captain had ever been in contact with voodoo people, but now they found that the voodoo members who attacked the Qinhuai Mountains did not seem to be under the control of voodoo, but more like a group of stragglers.

Therefore, they actually have nothing to do with this group of masked people who attacked the Qinhuai Mountain Range, and all conflicts or communication are improvised.

This is completely consistent with what Moon Spirit confessed to us before, but it seems that Sasha and they don't know.

Finally, I asked them about the exact steps they planned to take if they succeeded in taking Moon Dust, and Sasha said that they had planned to leave Dongkou Province by subway, then return to their camp in South China Province, and finally return to their homeland by boat. A series of studies on moon dust will also be conducted in the United States, and they have no right to interfere with the specific content of the experiment.

When I heard this, I realized that the mission of this American military chaplaincy was really just to bring people back.

In addition, Sasa also admitted that their target has changed several times one after another, at first the target was actually the moon spirit, and then it became Qianqian's corpse, and then it was me and Liu Yong, after the incident in Dongkou Province, they turned the target to Qianqian again, and finally determined that the real target was actually the moon dust.

Sasa's description is also consistent with what I have experienced from lucid dreams, from the mouth of the moon spirit, and from what I have actually experienced.

I remember most vividly the first time I met them on the miniature island, when the guys apparently knew who I was, but didn't do anything to me.

According to the logic of Sasha's words, the person they are looking for is actually the person with the real source of energy, and now ...... I seem to have another reason to be their new target.

But for Sasha, I'm sure I won't let her know too much about me, especially if I still have energy in me, and I have to keep her tight-lipped, otherwise, maybe she'll have some way to attract her team!

Speaking of teams, that's the biggest takeaway from this conversation between me and Sasa.

Sasa just mentioned that they still have a camp in South China Province, and I thought that the people in this camp must have already been dispatched, but to my surprise, Sasha actually said that they still had a lot of personnel and supplies left in the camp to respond.

I immediately asked Amy for a specific address, and Sasa didn't know if she was scared or wanted to cooperate, but she told us that the address was actually located near the original "End of the World" tourist attraction, which was the place where we landed for the first time after returning to mainland from Taoyuan Island.

They still have a lot of supplies, and I wonder if we were worried about the lack of crop seeds and a lot of tools, and now it seems that we might be able to get supplies from these Americans.

In addition, with Sasha as a hostage this time, we may be able to reach some kind of new consensus between our two personnel.

But even though Sasha was honest about some of the facts, I couldn't set her free, and I put Amy in charge of his guards at all times, and tried to keep her emotions as steady as possible, and by the way, if possible, to get some more out of her, especially on the question of who was in command of their American military chaplaincy corps.

In addition to our conversations with Sasha, we have also met with a number of itinerant colonies from the northern part of Dongkou Province over the past few days.

You must know that the fighting in Dongkou Province is mainly distributed in the central and southern regions, and a large area in the north has not been affected much.

The number of loiterer communities in these areas is still quite large, and if it hadn't happened before the loiterer left, I would have asked Zhao Youkuang to recruit them at this moment.

But after what happened last time, I have learned that whether it is wanderers, semi-infected people, or survivors, these people are unreliable, and the effort and reward required to bring them together are completely disproportionate.

In addition, we don't face a large-scale threat now, so if we continue to try to absorb these people, it will only add to our burden.

Fortunately, the wanderers were not interested in us, and they were at peace with each other.

......

When everything was ready, we set out at noon on the fourth day, but unlike in the past, we did not destroy our old camp when we left, but kept it as it should, for in case things did not go well on Taoyuan Island, or if we could not find a foothold in South China Province, our brigade would probably have to return here.

To avoid being discovered by other wanderers, we've even secretly sealed several entrances to the sewer camp.

We first arrived at the hideout of the convoy on the border of Dong Kou Province with people and supplies by subway, and after converging, we broke up the people evenly and traveled in separate vehicles.

Thankfully, the massive loss of previous batches of personnel had also significantly reduced our ranks, and I eventually found that there were not only enough vehicles, but even a surplus.

Gasoline, as the top priority of our current supplies, is focused on protecting the central area of the convoy, and the front and rear ends of the convoy are occupied by the teams led by Lu Ming and Bai Ye respectively.

During this period, we did not encounter any traces of voodoo members, although we have seen a lot of Voodoo corpses before, but judging from the previous attack in the Qinhuai Mountains and even the entire Dongkou Province, as well as the oral facts of the Moon Spirit, the number of these corpses is far from reaching the total number of masked people.

However, we don't know whether the remaining masked people are dead or have absconded somewhere else, according to the moon spirit, these masked people basically have some more pain sensing functions than the soul corpses, and other aspects are completely the same, in other words, even if these people can't die temporarily, they won't survive for long.

After leaving Dongkou Province, we spent more than three days on the way to North China Province, during which we did not encounter any Gu objects, and only a handful of living people we encountered.

Most of the living people belonged to some of the surviving people who had been scattered around the neighborhood before, and I thought that these people would definitely ask to join us when they saw us, but to my surprise, no one wanted to be with us at all from the beginning to the end.

Later, I learned that many of them knew Lu Ming and his bounty hunters, and these guys had done a lot of evil before, and now these survivors have regarded us as bandits and robbers who have plundered wherever they go......

But I didn't think about getting them on board, and it didn't matter, because these people didn't help us in any way, and they would slow down our process.

What is really worth talking about is after we entered the territory of North China Province.

North China was the last province we stayed in before we moved to Dongkou Province, and it was the area where I knew the most about land, even more so than South China.

The first thing we did when we got back was to check out a few key locations we had been in before, such as the area around Huhai City, such as the former concentration camps where the Blue Bird Company had imprisoned semi-infected people.

Upon inspection, we found that the places had apparently been inhabited again after we left, and it seemed that there were quite a few of them.

We were all a little surprised, because it stands to reason that after the previous energy storm swept through, the other areas except Dongkou Province should have been deserted, how could there be so many people here?

What's even more strange is that, judging from the traces of life they have left, these people must have a complete sense of autonomy.

We searched back and forth in these areas many times but could not find an answer, and finally had to give up for the time being and continue to move towards South China Province.
