Chapter Seventy-Three: A Sudden Crisis
"Let's go, if you don't go out again, Annina's kitten should probably be worried..."
After confirming that there was no sign of life activity here, and finding those words, Dong Xuan could be regarded as having completed the basic exploration plan, so he planned to turn around and leave after sorting out his things.
Maybe he won't be there again anytime soon, but when he comes back, it is clear that he won't be as alone as he is now.
However, it is clear that there are "people" who don't want to see him walk away like this
"What's going on?!"
Without warning, Dong Xuan's face suddenly changed, because at this moment, a sudden fluctuation appeared around him, and then it broke straight into his mind!
This fluctuation of the carrier's information is constantly transforming in his mind, constantly forming language sentences that he can understand.
Finally, in his consciousness, the voice of a young woman who felt unusually comfortable, as if with a fragrance—"Hello, young descendant, welcome!" ”
The voice is tactful, but it's a pity that someone is not in the mood to pay attention to this at all.
"Looks like something isn't going well..."
This kind of ghost-like situation suddenly appeared in the originally dead and silent environment, and Dong Xuan felt as if his heartbeat was half a beat slower.
Obviously, his previous actions had finally touched something, and most likely it was the original owner of this kind of city - an intelligent being from a mid-level mechanical civilization, and maybe even a super old monster that had been sleeping for tens of thousands of years!
"Please relax, I have no ill intentions and just want to ask for your help"
As if to be able to sense his nervousness and vigilance, the voice sounded softly again, and at the same time, there was an inexplicable power constantly floating in his mind.
The feeling of that kind of power is like listening to soothing music, and it is like being immersed in the arms of your mother in your childhood, and you can't help but want to completely relax and open your heart
Of course, if it was just an ordinary human explorer here, he would have been tricked at this moment, but as an arcane master, not only did he not indulge in the slightest at the moment, but his whole person was instantly on high alert!
The powerful and condensed spiritual power resisted the invasion of this force, kept his consciousness clear, and even had the spare energy to analyze the nature of this force.
"This kind of charm is like a spell, but it has a plausible effect"
Squinting his eyes, taking advantage of the momentary waiting pause of the other party, his brain began to run wildly.
"Judging from the nature of this fluctuation and the various situations that are being displayed now, the spiritual power can already be ruled out, and if it is a pure mechanical civilization power, it is estimated that there are only those two."
Looking at the information circulating in his mind about the golden runes, his heart sank.
"The Signature Technology of Mechanical Civilization: Brainwave Communication, and the Civilization Crushing Technique of the Killer of Low-Level Civilization - Thought Interference?"
There is only a lack of low-end information in the inheritance knowledge, but all kinds of materials for civilizations above the intermediate level are very well preserved.
Therefore, purely in terms of pure insight and knowledge, in the young universe where the earth is located, there may be a guy who can surpass him, an ancient true god who has inherited an ancient true god who has completely experienced the collapse of the universe, but there are definitely not many, so the "erudite" he quickly found out the relevant information of these two technologies.
According to the introduction in the inheritance information, these are two general-purpose mechanical civilization technologies, which can be called rotten streets in the carbon-based life civilization that destroys the universe and humans.
It can be said that as long as the end of the primary mechanical civilization is passed, almost all civilizations will give birth to similar technologies, and even led to the fact that these two once became one of the criteria for the promotion of mechanical civilization from primary to intermediate.
But on the other hand, this situation also represents the effectiveness and necessity of both technologies themselves.
The former is the most common technology for life forms like humans when developing mechanical civilizations, which can transcend language and race barriers and communicate directly with targets.
The latter is essentially like the way in which primary civilizations interfere with emotions (music, songs, speeches, biographies. Pin, wash. Brain, urge. sleep).
Through various means of interference with brain nodes and sensory areas, to achieve a silent induction and control of the target effect, whether it is anger, obsession, or relaxation, will be controlled by it, it is completely a mechanical civilization version of the charm technique.
And the top ones can completely make the target even if he knows that he has been tricked but doesn't care, and even continues to enjoy it, which is even more cruel than modifying his memory!
Obviously, for ordinary people, encountering this situation is almost an almost inexplicable terrible disaster, but when Dong Xuan understood its essence, he was not worried at all.
"If it were an ordinary person, I would really be happy to be succeeded by you and become an unusually obedient puppet driven by you, but it's a pity that I'm an official arcanist now!"
He couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Why is level 4 called a full-fledged arcanist, while level 3 and below are called apprentices?
In addition to the regular gap in the total amount of mana, the most important thing is that when advancing to level 4, the entire spiritual will of the Arcanist will be condensed and sublimated!
And one of the incidental effects of this sublimation is to produce an extremely strong resistance to this kind of spiritual power that interferes with the spirit through the physical body, that is, Dong Xuan's spiritual power now spontaneously begins to resist the interference and erosion of the other party.
Otherwise, if any mid-level mechanical civilization's mass-produced technology could easily take down an arcanist and enslave him, how could an arcanist become a tyrant among countless civilizations in the Destruction Universe?!
"As soon as I came up, I played yin, and it seems that this guy who communicates with me is not a good thing!"
If possible, Dong Xuan now just wants to turn around and leave directly, wait for the forces under his command to develop enough to resist the other party, and then communicate with the other party in a conqueror attitude, or even directly occupy this place.
However, it is a pity that the other party did not intend to give him this opportunity.
Because at the same time that voice sounded, it seemed that nothing had happened, but in his sensitive spiritual perception, countless auras that made him feel extremely dangerous were locked on his body one by one!
Judging from the level of technology displayed by the other party, these things that are activated in the shadows are absolutely terrifying in terms of power, and once the other party attacks, he is really in danger of being directly gray!
There is no doubt that the reality has made him firmly understand what it means to ride a tiger
"Damn! Sure enough, there are tons of defenses here! Forget it, for the sake of me that I can't beat you, let me hear what you have to say."
With this kind of thought, he was even more afraid that the other party would become angry and hardened after discovering that the means were ineffective, and directly destroy him humanely, so he had to pretend to be successfully interfered with by the other party.
If you want to disguise and deceive the enemy, it is obviously also a difficult technical job, if you rely solely on your own means, you can't do a miracle that you can succeed under the observation of countless high-tech.
And at this time, he was most glad that there was actually a special arcane art in the inheritance information to deal with this situation, disguised to be controlled and then tricked people. "There is still such a thing in the information of the thought interference, and I don't know where the God of Wisdom got it, it can't be that this old guy created it himself, right?"
Although I am a little curious, but if I think about it carefully, it doesn't seem strange that for that super ancient universe where the intermediate civilization is not as good as a dog, the advanced civilization is all over the place, and the top civilization can shake it, a very common technology will have a targeted cracking method, and it doesn't seem to be a strange thing.
As a result, someone quickly tossed these distractions aside and instead secretly threw a non-ranked arcane called "Virtual Hint" on their body.
Without any vision, without the slightest fluctuation in energy, the arcane began to work quietly.
After its cover-up, Dong Xuan's whole person instantly showed an extremely relaxed and sluggish state at this time, both mentally and physically information, and even the most difficult to control physiological conditions such as blood pressure, heartbeat, hormone secretion, and the most critical brain wave activity began to gradually change.
Obviously, this should be the state that should be after being successfully controlled by the interference of the mind.
The other party, who had never encountered a situation similar to the various pits in the Shattered Universe, was really frightened after passing through various hidden detection methods.
Thinking that his interference had played a role, the other party simply tore off his disguise and directly continued to command in a voice as moving as music:
"Young man, I need your help, go forward, in the building that shines purple in front of me, I will wait for your arrival"
Feeling the distracting force that suddenly increased in intensity in his mind, Dong Xuan looked up at the conspicuous building in the distance, which suddenly transformed into a soft purple light, and began to walk there with a deep groan in his heart.
Perhaps to guide Dong Xuan, or more likely to save energy, the light that originally spread throughout the city gradually dimmed, and soon only that building was still emitting a soft purple light.
"Even those dangerous auras are hidden, and it seems that the remaining energy here is not rich due to tens of thousands of years of sleep..."
Of course, this must only be a temporary difficulty, as long as there is enough sunlight, geothermal heat, and even sea water and air, the energy reserves can be replenished quickly with the level of the opponent's civilization.
But in this way, at least Dong Xuan felt a lot more relieved.
As long as he was not targeted at the same time by those dense dangerous aura, he was still very sure to get out, he didn't believe that those weapons and equipment could be activated in an instant without intervals after such a long time baptism.
