Chapter 432: Acquiescence

The information of the Demon Cave is highly classified, and many of the scientific research projects of its affiliated research centers will involve the future layout of the official, and Xing Hechou will only pick up a general explanation.

"The overall shape of the Prison Cave resembles an inverted tower, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The higher the level, the more vast the space, the more demons it can contain, and its strength is relatively low.

The lowest monsters are only a few points stronger than ordinary beasts, and ordinary people who have been trained can destroy them with full armament.

But their number ..."

Xing Hechou was silent for a moment, according to the report sent back by the front-line exploration team, the top layer of the Demon Prison Cave did not seem to abide by the physical laws of the real world, and it was difficult to measure the distance.

At the entrance alone, dozens of mountains three or four thousand meters high were found.

The interior of the mountain has been hollowed out, and the low-level demons inhabiting it are conservatively estimated to be hundreds of millions...

Deeper in the wilderness, towering mountains with similar structures have also been discovered.

How many demons there are, even the most optimistic scientists dare not give an answer.

"The Prison Cave is a prison and laboratory that has been forgotten and abandoned for thousands of years by the Alien Society. Over a long period of time, a dynamically balanced ecosystem has been formed within it.

Low-level demons feed on the plant minerals inside the demon cave, multiply, and are hunted and preyed upon by more powerful demons, and the energy that escapes when they die returns to heaven and earth.

Monsters can continue to grow stronger by accumulating energy, and can even use some hidden passages to go to the next layer of space.

Many of the monsters in the first few floors are social creatures like ants, and large-scale wars occasionally break out between populations, and the speed of replacement is very fast.

The further down you go, the more powerful and ancient the monsters become, and even some highly intelligent demons that have survived from ancient times have appeared. ”

Speaking of this, Xing Hechou couldn't help but glance at Li Ang,

This Brother Li is a personal experiencer of Mirage**,

The content he heard from the drought and relayed to the Special Affairs Bureau was analyzed and studied word by word by the think tanks, and three meanings had to be analyzed for each word, which was even more torturous than the appreciation of the college entrance examination.

According to the think tank, it is best to ask Comrade Li to come to the Special Affairs Bureau in person.

Wear a helmet that can parse brain waves into video and audio, so that they can carefully interpret the subtle expressions on the faces of the dartfish when they say those words.

Afterwards, whether you want a pennant or a game currency reward, it's easy to say that the special affairs bureau is not bad for money.

If Drought had said a few more words at the beginning, maybe these think tanks would have really given birth to some "drought scientists"....

"In short, the frontline exploration team has successfully made contact with some low-level high-intelligence demons through some means.

Combined with the information they reveal and the analysis of ancient texts by modern medical associations, we understand why the Prison Cave can maintain ecological balance-

The entire prison has developed a high level of intelligence a long time ago, and it uses some of the designs of the original Alien Society to find ways to replenish matter and energy from the outside world during the period of spiritual exhaustion. ”

Li Ang was stunned when he heard this, it is easy to understand the replenishment of materials, the Prison Demon Cave will covertly encroach on the real world, what is the matter with replenishing energy?

Could it be that the Demon Prison Cave will secretly drift away from the Red Bull and Snickers stacked in the warehouse of Yinshi Port?

As if seeing Li Ang's question, Xing Hechou explained: "The Demon Prison Cave exists in the cracks of the real world, and it stands to reason that it and the demons inside it should also be like a monk of the Alien Society.

Because of the exhaustion of the aura, it gradually dies.

But somehow, it learned to exist a part of itself, to separate it from the real world,

Concentrates light like a convex lens. ”

Liu Wuxi, who had not spoken, was stunned for two seconds, "Wait, you mean..."

"That's right, the Prison Cave learned to use itself as a solar panel hundreds of years ago, basking in the sun every day to replenish energy."

Xing Hechou's face couldn't help but show a tight expression of egg pain, "Transcendent beings can't survive in an environment where the aura is exhausted, but the Prison Demon Cave is not a life, it is more like a highly intelligent automaton.

It steals soil, water, and plant species from the real world, improves the internal environment, and makes the internal system reach a dynamic equilibrium, feeding a large family in the belly.

Even we believe that some of the members of the Ancient Alien Society who designed the Demon Prison Cave, as well as the Mirages and Dryfish who were in charge of guarding them, knew this. ”

Xing Hechou said with a solemn face: "The outside aura is ebbing, and I don't know how long the depletion period will last.

The mirage and the drought, perhaps secretly made some kind of agreement with the Prison Cave,

At the very least, they acquiesced in the Prison Cave's efforts to save themselves - only then could they survive the long period of exhaustion that might ensue.

After all, according to the original design, the mirage should wear out most of the demons when the contract is completed. ”

Leon thought of the mythical girl with a short stature and fiery red skin, pursed his lips, and did not speak.

"It would not be surprising if even the only two jailers acquiesced in the fact that the prison itself was developing in the shadows."

Xing Hechou shook his head and said: "Fortunately, the confinement left by the Ancient Alien Society can still have an effect, and those prohibitions themselves are part of the Demon Prison Cave, which is equivalent to the underlying code.

Even the prison itself cannot be modified.

For example, you must use hidden passages to get between the levels, and you can only pass a few monsters at a time;

The more powerful the demons, the more restricted they are, unable to move freely, and the most powerful monsters have not yet been able to regain consciousness;

There is a limit to the number and quality of monsters between the layers, and if the energy reaches the limit of what that layer can tolerate, the Demon Prison Cave will automatically start the destruction process of that layer, crushing all the demons in it - in order to force the demons to kill each other without a jailer.

It's the underlying code that gives us a crucial respite. ”

Li Ang frowned and said, "Demon Tide..."

"Hmm."

Xing Hechou nodded, "We don't trust those high-level demons who are connected, but they do know a lot of secrets.

Based on the information of all parties, we believe that the so-called demon tide is likely to be an automatic machine that is free from the shackles of the jailers, and out of the underlying code and its own essential needs, it plunders matter and energy from the outside world.

In order to allow himself to continue to grow and develop, it is very likely that the Prison Demon Cave will release countless demons from top to bottom, layer by layer, and manipulate them to plunder all the resources of the real world.

This is called the Magic Tide.

Once the demon tide is activated, the billions of monsters in the first few layers can still be destroyed with conventional artillery fire, but those deeper monsters with treacherous and extraordinary powers will deal a devastating blow to the order of the real world.

It would be a literal catastrophe. ”
