Chapter 717: Reaper
Five-dimensional space-time.
To the southwest of the garden layer, it is already very far away from Yun Mengze Eat, which is the border area of the Human Innovation Alliance.
Ma Wu led a team of scouts to shuttle through the fragmented cloud islands, and suddenly a large floating ocean appeared in front of him.
"Minister, passing through this empty sea is the ghost forest." An amethyst scout turned his head and said.
"Keep going." Ma Wu waved his hand.
The group rushed into the empty sea without hesitation, and there are some places in the five-dimensional space-time where gravity does not exist, or the gravitational force is very small, so there are a large number of floating cloud islands, empty seas, hanging mountains and the like.
There are a large number of low-level creatures in the empty sea, and a large group of saucer-shaped creatures swim past Ma Wu and the others, but these strange creatures are familiar to Ma Wu and the others.
After passing through a field of blue coccus, he entered the dead sand, and Ma Wu looked at the depths of the sand, and there was a gray patch in the depths of the sand.
"Mabe, there's a ghost forest ahead."
The crowd galloped and finally reached the edge of the gray area, which was a gray stone forest.
Out of the ghost forest, five or six scouts sprang out.
"Mabe, captain."
"Let's stop chatting and take me to the scene." Ma Wu said calmly.
"Yes."
Everyone was turning around in the ghost forest, and as they went deeper and deeper into the ghost forest, Ma Wu's mood became heavier and heavier.
There are many traces left here, which are traces of the life of intelligent creatures, the ruins of buildings, murals depicting mysterious runes, and instruments and utensils scattered all over the place.
The scout leading the way in front stopped.
Then they entered an underground space.
Ma Wu grabbed a handful of dirt.
Dead silence, except dead silence is still dead silence.
Not only were the creatures of the five-dimensional space-time destroyed, but even the lives of the four-dimensional space-time and the three-dimensional space-time were also wiped out.
The long underground tunnel, in which the contents are relatively intact, in the underground hall, are some statues of gods, and wall carvings of unknown characters.
Ma Wu opened the timeline here, and after a while, he saw the black ball again, the black ball that destroyed everything.
"It's a black ball again, what the hell is this thing?" Ma Wu said with an ugly face.
"Mabe, this place is some of the information we found." A scout said, pointing to one of the walls.
Ma Wu turned his head and read carefully.
"Extradimensional Sphere...... I Tungsten Gate Civilization ...... 167…… Devouring Souls ......"
Although the text on the wall inscription is very complete in the timeline, the carvers carved it in a mess, which shows that the carvers were very panicked at that time.
However, after Ma Wu's patchwork analysis, some of the meanings can still be read in general.
The Tungsten Gate civilization was born about 12 epochs ago, and successfully ascended to the area of the Ghost Forest around the 6th epoch, where they grew and grew.
It wasn't until around the 2nd epoch that their territory on the east side began to encounter attacks from a terrible enemy, although the Tungsten Gate civilization was outnumbered, but this strange enemy was immune to time weapons and all other attacks, and the Tungsten Gate civilization was defeated.
And this extradimensional ball seems to be able to track life, no matter how the tungsten gate people respond, this extradimensional ball can ignore it and directly harvest all nearby lives.
Finally, it is to warn latecomers to beware of the attack of the extradimensional ball.
"There is a precursor to the extra-dimensional ball attack, and there will be a sudden surge in the local time flow rate." Ma Wu focused on this information.
As soon as the Alliance receives this information, it immediately sets up time observation stations in various areas, and if there is a spike in time flow, it will be immediately detected by the Alliance.
However, Ma Wu's other discovery has cast a shadow on everyone.
The appearance of the extradimensional sphere is very fast, judging from the two destroyed civilizations found so far, as long as the extradimensional sphere appears, the life within the surrounding billions of hours will irresistibly suck away the soul.
Both of these destroyed civilizations tried various ways to resist, but unfortunately they were both doomed in the end.
Since the five-dimensional space-time cannot open the space jump, the speed movement is relatively slow in many cases, but the extradimensional ball has a movement method similar to the space jump, which makes the escape plan bankrupt.
Ma Wu continued to stay on the side of the ghost forest to continue the investigation.
The other side.
Huang Haojie watched Ma Wu transmit back the information, and his heart became more and more uneasy.
"Führer, the scientific research department has been working this extradimensional sphere, but we haven't really seen this thing, and we don't have a clue for a while." Wang Zhiqiang said helplessly.
"I know, now we have to investigate the surrounding situation as much as possible, see what the appearance pattern of this extradimensional ball is, and let the scientific research department develop a device that can shield the soul fluctuation, I suspect that the extradimensional ball is based on the soul to find civilization." Huang Haojie commanded.
"Yes."
"Tie Jun, the R&D department of your command department is also following up on this matter."
"Yes! Monarch. Wang Tiejun replied solemnly.
The whole alliance attaches great importance to this matter, after all, no one wants to work hard to ascend to the fifth dimension, and they have not been dashing for a few eras, so they are silently wiped out.
Wait!
Huang Haojie suddenly reacted.
Opening the timeline of the Hongmeng clan that he had eliminated before, he found a situation that the life forms on Yun Mengze's side, whether they were five-dimensional creatures or four-dimensional three-dimensional creatures, had a time limit.
The 147 epoch is a dividing line, and the vast majority of civilizations and creatures only appeared after the 147 era, with the only exception being the Hongmeng clan.
The Hongmeng clan has existed for a long time of 426 epochs.
"Jung Hyun."
"Yes."
Huang Haojie instructed: "Immediately continue to investigate the various regions of our alliance, the target is the time period when the life forms and civilizations in all regions appear, remember that whether it is a five-dimensional or a four-dimensional three-dimensional, it must be counted." ”
"No problem." Zheng Xian hurriedly replied.
"It's very important, and you do it right away as fast as you can." Huang Haojie reminded solemnly.
Seeing Huang Haojie's serious expression, Zheng Xian's heart sank, and he hurriedly returned to the Time and Space Administration.
Under the intense investigation of the Time and Space Administration, some hidden truths gradually surfaced.
Huang Haojie looked at the data solemnly, and he found a very terrible law, the life and civilization in every region seemed to have been harvested artificially.
For example, near Yunmengze, the upper limit of life is 147 epochs; The vicinity of the Tianxing Sea on the east side of Yunmengze is the 152nd era, and the east side is the 157th era and the 162nd era......
In other words, every 5 epochs or so, an area is destroyed, or harvested.
After Huang Haojie counted these data, he could calculate that the next harvest should be around 53~87 epochs.
Those extradimensional orbs would appear in the vicinity of the League, though it seemed like a very long time.
In fact, he also discovered another rule, that is, once the extradimensional sphere discovers the existence of a fifth-level civilization, the area where the civilization exists will be harvested at one time, instead of according to the first harvesting law.
From here, it can be inferred that the Reaper should have the intention of targeting the fifth-level civilization, and once the fifth-level civilization is discovered, the reaper will immediately kill them.
He turned his head to look at the Hongmeng clan, which means that the Hongmeng clan's self-denial allowed them to survive.
And since the Hongmeng clan is not a fifth-level civilization, the Reaper may not care about the ants of the four-dimensional space-time.
