Far from the marginal Pypa at the end of the world,

It is dotted with a large number of fully mined metal mines, and was once the largest metal mining site in the early Old World, and even the early monasteries of agony would buy large quantities of goods from here for the development of chain farming.

Moreover, once nourished by the evil sun, the metal here is also renewable.

But with the end of the war, it was quickly mined and quickly declined, and hundreds of years ago, some treasure hunters would come here to try to find some rare metals, but now it is almost unpatronized, and there are even many old world prophets who predict that this place will eventually evolve into a new abyss.

But hundreds of years have passed, and this place is still the same,

Although completely shrouded in darkness, it always feels like there are still remnants of the shiny ore in the mine, so that this place is always at the 'tipping point' of transformation to the darkest place.

But

What almost everyone doesn't know is that

In the depths of a mine, walking thirteen times along a fixed pit route to move the inconspicuous rocks on the ground will open a hidden passage.

The passage has a strong metallic sheen, illuminating the entire mine with each opening.

In the deepest part of the secret passage lies a secret area full of cranial nerves and more complex than the source plague zone, where a group of special races that have survived ancient times are conducting various secret experiments.

The Neisseria Ones

This is a special race that is on a par with the mad at the brain level, but they are not as assertive as the mad, but are very gregarious and like to share knowledge.

Theoretically, such a collective, intelligent race will inevitably have a good development.

It's a pity that they have a genetic inferiority, that is, they are too kind and have no intentions.

In ancient times, they mastered a large number of advanced technologies, and even developed some special props that could break the epidemic level.

But they did not look for a certain source epidemic area as a backer, but were unwilling to cooperate with anyone, reduce human feelings and concentrate on research.

Their existence invisibly threatens many forces, and is also coveted by many organizations hiding in the dark.

Even before the invasion war arrived, this race was basically wiped out for various reasons, and all kinds of ancient stone tablets and technological products were divided among the major forces.

However, the Nether Cluster did not end up as a result, and some of them survived and have since gone into complete seclusion, no longer dealing with any of the powers of the Old World.

As time passed, it was even forgotten by most people, believing that this group of guys had long since disappeared.

Instead of hating the sick who robbed and killed their ancestors, their descendants hid in the depths of the world and analyzed the ethnic problem in great detail, and came up with a plan that would allow the Nether cluster to develop steadily and no longer be invaded.

still did not choose to rely on any source epidemic area, but worked itself,

strengthened his weak flesh through technology, and completed a "Theory of Ascension" a hundred years ago that was worth more than a plague book.

The core concept mentioned in the book is [Mechanical Ascension]

However, the risk of ascension is extremely high, in this old world where it is impossible to have children, if the already small population of the Netherbrains dies during the ascension, it will not only delay the progress of research but also further accelerate the demise of the race, and they can no longer afford any human losses.

Therefore, it has been suggested that humans of unknown nature should be cultivated from the infected world.

Their brains are constantly monitored during the cultivation process, and any thoughts that are unfavorable to the Nether cluster will be emptied of their memories and thrown to the old world to fend for themselves.

Reagan, born with super-mental powers and developing brain-related diseases, was drawn by Nether when he first came to the Old World.

Of course, Reagan wasn't the only one who chose it,

Before him, at least thirty humans were chosen, but unfortunately none of them were heard from, and only Reagan returned to Zion after coming into contact with the Nether cluster.

Because of the signing of a non-disclosure agreement at the soul level, I can't say the relevant organization behind it.

Even the gentlemen's organization did not know what organizations Reagan was associated with in the Old World, only that his mental power was growing rapidly every year to an incredible degree.

And Reagan fits in well with the Nether cluster, he lives for only two things,

1. Engage in scientific research,

2. Let Fie live and live a perfect life,

Both of these things can be met in the Neisseria cluster, and by learning ancient techniques and contracting Neisseria meningitidis, Reagan found a way to keep Fay evolving and stable in consciousness.

And Reagan's excellence was gradually recognized, appreciated, and even treated as his own person.

When Reagan completed the path, and in some ways even surpassed most of the Netherbrains, the Great Elder handed the "Ascension Theory" into Reagan's hands, hoping that he would try to become the first to ascend.

There was no need for persuasion, and Reagan was quickly attracted by the exposition theory in it, and agreed without hesitation.

Since then, the entire Nether cluster has been carrying out the "Ascension Project" around Reagan, and the resources accumulated by the entire cluster have been invested in Reagan.

As long as he can become an Ascension, the entire tribe will be able to gather enough information based on Reagan's transformation experience, greatly reducing the risk of ascension, so that the entire tribe can achieve ascension and no longer fear any intruders.

But the reality is not so simple,

Even if all the flesh below Reagan's head were mechanized with 100% synchronization,

But the transformation of the head area has never been realized.

Either the synchronization rate is not up to the mark, or it may endanger Reagan's self-consciousness, and if he is not careful, the whole consciousness will be annihilated and reduced to a useless mechanical puppet.

And so it is,

Reagan temporarily left the Nether cluster and returned to Zion to conduct research, and recently used William's connections to establish a scientific relationship with the Black Company, and signed a "Chaos Moon Research Agreement" with Lorian.

All the research results, Reagan will be the first to carry out 'infinite distance brainwave sharing' with the community.

All of these seemingly incompatible scientific studies have been used to find ways for the brain to soar, and although they have been advanced, they are still far from being completed.

And Reagan has also fallen into an unprecedented bottleneck,

Even so, the entire Nether cluster could no longer compete with Reagan alone, and they regarded Reagan as a treasure, and even built a 'synchronization statue' made from part of Reagan's brain tissue.

This statue is a tangible reflection of Reagan's current situation.

Now, in a secret room deep in the mines

A group of brains that are more than twice the size of a human without a skull and are completely exposed, and are even severely inflamed, emitting a glowing red.

They were converging in front of Reagan's synchronicity statue, because there had been a large exponential fluctuation coming from the statue.

Click!

There was a slight crack on the waist and abdomen of the statue, although it was not deep, but this attack that could destroy the metal of the Ascendant was enough to indicate the level of the opponent, and there was even blood that should not have spilled from the statue's wound.

When they tried to sense Reagan's location, they could only get a rough fuzzy coordinate.

You know, no matter where Reagan was, even in the human world, they could use the technology contained in the statue to easily locate them.

Realizing that something was wrong, the Nesser Brains began to communicate.

mo~mo~mo~

With bursts of brainwave transmission,

After a while, at the bottom of the mine, a mysterious group wrapped in insulating cloaks began to move, heading in the direction of the tannery.
