38, Heroic Spirit

"Ha, I didn't mean to play a trick on you."

Zhao Manjun smiled and waved his hand, and continued to follow the question raised by Lu Fuyan.

"Actually, to be more precise, remove the 'Heroic Spirit' mentioned at the end, and the previous seven paths correspond to the seven evil gods whose traces are currently easiest for humans to capture through the 'Phase Space Expansion Device'.

Their abilities may not be the strongest among the cult gods, but they are the most frequent and harmful to human societyβ€”and it is for this reason that we have the best understanding of the characteristics of these seven cult gods. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm even more confused when you say that... If the Heroic Spirit belongs to other paths, then why mention it more? ”

"Because although it is true that the Heroic Spirit does not belong to the above seven categories according to the classification of paths, as the only artificially corrupted path that humans have transformed on their own so far, we attach even more importance to it than the other seven - it was born from an evil god who is more vague than the path of the Seven Gods, and it was opened up with human habits in mind, so it is the most stable choice of all known paths."

"Not part of the seven paths... Instead more stable? ”

Lu Fuyan keenly grasped the contradictions in the other party's words, and became even more confused.

Fortunately, Miss Zhao didn't sell it, she picked up the pieces of wood at her feet, and drew a mind map on the ground while assisting in the explanation.

"To understand this problem, we must implement some basic points in advance. Remember what I said before, most of the time, the transcendents who are infected with the power of the evil gods are not promoted in the order of the Xu Clan's energy level? ”

"It's a bit impressive."

"That's the crux of the matter."

Zhao Manjun drew a circle on the ground and wrote the word "risk" in the circle.

"There are six levels of Xu's energy levels, and the first five levels are: dangerous, deadly, destructive, natural disasters, and extraordinary.

Logically speaking, the higher the energy level of any individual in this table, the more divine power it holds, and the more advanced it is to be able to use extraordinary abilities...

But from another point of view, in the process, the degree to which the individual is polluted by the evil god is also gradually deepening! When his own consciousness gradually faded and wore away under the will of the evil god, a new source of pollution was born. ”

"That is, out of control?"

"That's right, you've just experienced it, and you should be impressed."

β€œ...”

"Therefore, for any transcendent person with normal brain circuits, the increase in energy level has nothing to do with positive intentions such as 'promotion' - on the contrary, the greater divine power means that they are one step closer to the end of desperate and hopeless illness."

"That's why you said before that the Xu's energy level division table is not an upgrade route, but a physical examination investigation report?"

"Exactly. In fact, if the transcendent wants to expand their combat power, they need to play some small tricks... Well, that's the knowledge point after that, let's talk about it later. ”

Pressing this section is not tabled, Zhao Manjun added the word "corrosion" under the risk.

"For the Transcendent, it is much less difficult to raise the energy level than to maintain the existing level of erosion. If left unchecked, even the newly infected Transcendents could easily gain access to transcendent abilities far beyond their current levelβ€”even if that meant they would be heading for irretrievable self-destruction in a very short time. ”

"Isn't that right... In that case, humanity should have been finished a long time ago, right? ”

Order has been chaotic since ancient times.

Entropy increase is the truth of the universe.

If the evil god's erosion efficiency on ordinary people was so high, Lu Fuyan felt that in more than 200 years, the wasteland should have been full of natural disasters or pollution sources with a higher degree of danger! Where would there still be a foothold for normal human settlements?

"You're right, most of this world is indeed deeply polluted - fortunately, there are not many individuals like you who can contain energy above the Cataclysmic level, and most people have lost all vital signs and the characteristics of the source of pollution before they have developed this point, and only exist as mutants.

In addition, the natural disaster-level pollution sources created by different corrosion paths also have a devouring and fighting relationship with each other, thanks to which we will not be helpless in this war for survival. ”

β€œ... I suddenly understood why you kept talking about canning me. ”

"Oh? So you agree? ”

"Talk about something else, talk about something else..."

Miss Zhao deliberately stabbed someone Lu.

She pursed her lips and smiled, and she didn't continue to dwell on the topic of canning.

She put her attention back on the mind map in front of her, and connected an arrow outside the circle of "risk", and then added the words "avoidance plan".

"Back to the point, although we know that there is a risk in absorbing the power of evil gods, in order to fight against unreasonable pollution, all human organizations, including the Self-Salvation Society, have to choose to accept this curse and win a glimmer of life for the entire human civilization.

At first, after dividing the seven main corrosion paths, people also found that the seven most active evil gods had too strong erosion capabilities. The pioneers of the apocalyptic times then turned to other evil gods who were more 'distant' away from us, hoping to find a way to safely use their supernatural abilities by analyzing their powers.

But this idea was quickly dismissed and abandoned. ”

"Why?"

"Because the human body and spirit are not originally compatible with the power system of the evil gods.

If it is not exposed to enough active and intense pollution, normal people will not be able to control the supernatural power at all! As a result, all attempts to explore beyond the seven main paths were quickly unsuccessful. ”

Speaking of this, Miss Zhao sighed helplessly.

As an important member of the Self-Help Association, she has seen many similar cases of setbacks over the years.

"The wasteland world has limited resources, and even scientific research has to prioritize the input-output ratio. In addition, some scholars are worried that too deep snooping on other evil gods may attract the attention of the other party, and if human civilization is in danger of attracting a great enemy other than the seven gods, I am afraid that no one can afford this crime...

As a result, the study of divine powers was forced to return to the seven main paths. Until an accident took the opportunity for things to change. ”

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is staring at you...

Nietzsche's famous quote was originally just a philosophical speculation of postmodernism, but when the end came, it became a realistic warning.

However, even in this kind of realm where the evil god has the absolute initiative, the brave man who is unwilling to die in silence still relies on superhuman wisdom and sacrifice spirit to "fight with open fire" in the back garden of the evil god, and fights for the survivors of the wasteland!
