After pondering the history of the Yanjiao people for a while, Zhang Ming was a little skeptical that the description in the book was a donkey-headed monster.

"It's possible that it's a similar version."

"Because the Yanjiao people at that time didn't even have breathing skills, it was theoretically difficult to beat the donkey-headed monster."

He wanted to look up more ancient knowledge, but found that it was only a mere sentence.

Most of the ancient history has been lost, not to mention, the Yanjiao people at that time were almost on the verge of extinction, and the so-called "soul disease" was nothing more than a disease of ringworm scabies.

In the face of the real demons dancing, the Yanjiao people actually can't care about these trivial things.

"The types of hunters in the world, how ......" Zhang Ming sighed and withdrew from the memory library.

Pick up the pot of the World Tree, which only has a leaf and a branch, and place it on the table.

Sit down peacefully and take a few deep breaths.

With his fingers, he pinched a pinch of light blue crystal powder like salt grains and sprinkled it on the leaves of the World Tree.

These crystals have saved up a lot of mineral water bottles, but they don't have to be afraid of wasting.

The leaves that were close to withering emitted a faint light that absorbed these soul ashes.

But soon, the little tree reverted to its original sickly appearance, about to hang up.

"Don't play dead, I know you can hold out for a long time...... The Xuanwu Continent hasn't sunk for so long, what are you pretending. ”

"In this way, I will fertilize you every day and try to grow up earlier." Zhang Ming grabbed a little more "soul ash" and sprinkled it on the soil.

But I found that the absorption of small trees is already the limit.

It seems that you can only grow a little bit a day...... There are so many soul ashes that you can't use them up in ten years.

And then there's the real business.

Zhang Ming took a deep breath.

Take out the Source of the World on your chest and approach the withered leaf. The Source of the World emitted a faint glow, meaning that the energy in the hedron was being slowly consumed.

The front of the leaf is golden, and the reverse side is silvery-gray, representing a Gaia-conscious existence.

The Gaia consciousness from the earth, vast and deep, as vast as the sky, represents the collective consciousness of all living beings in a world.

This intimate sense of security is similar to the mirage that once felt on the beach.

Obviously, Earth, as a new player, still has some small legacy in this disaster.

The other is the Gaia consciousness of the Xuanwu Continent, which is a little weak compared to this one on the earth.

It is also because a new Xuanwu civilization has appeared on Kameno Island, and it is in a state of second spring.

It is also very kind, and even because of its relative proximity, the world will of the Xuanwu Continent faintly hopes that Zhang Ming, who has left, can come back.

"That...... Okay two, it's really disturbing to use this feature so quickly. I've been doing well lately, how are you doing......" Zhang Ming greeted a little nervously.

However, it is clear that these two group consciousnesses did not give birth to a true "self", and neither of them reacted to Zhang Ming's greeting.

Sharpening the knife and not chopping wood, Zhang Ming carefully sensed the two thoughts and carefully studied them.

They seem to ...... More like a computer program?

has its own unique rules.

Those who are recognized by Gaia as having advanced privileges can borrow some of its basic functions.

For example, look at the amount of the Source of the World.

The Source of the World on the other side of the Earth, approximately 7320 units; On the Xuanwu Continent, there are only 680 units.

The difference between the two sides is an order of magnitude, and it is true that the other side of the earth is more wealthy.

"The Xuanwu Continent is really poor and barren...... Zhang Ming sighed, and after comparison, he found that the share of this one in his hand may be around 500 units, which is definitely a lot.

1 unit of Source of the World, which can shelter a large fleet for 1 day.

If the shelter radius is reduced, the shelter will last longer.

Looking at it this way, 500 units is quite valuable.

Zhang Ming estimated that he could shelter for about 10 years without interruption, that is, 87,600 hours!

With the quantitative data, his mind settled down greatly.

As for the other functions, such as manipulating the weather, shifting plates, and blessings of the harvest, all of them need to use the Source of the World...... It has its own set of formulas.

In addition, the generation of the Source of the World is extremely slow.

According to the number and intensity of organisms, on the earth side, there is only about 1 point in 1 year, and in the Xuanwu continent, 0.2 points in 1 year, which is really very little.

"It consumes quickly, but it accumulates slowly...... It's no different from making money. ”

The cost of the "Consciousness Connection" function is similar to the cost of "Shelter", 500 units of the Source of the World, which can play for more than 80,000 hours.

Although you can't afford to waste too much, it is feasible to use it at a critical moment.

The permissions on the other side of the earth are very strict, and so far only one person has been recognized by "Gaia", that is, Zhang Ming himself.

His exploits are so great that they have affected the historical trend of all mankind, and no matter how demanding the standards are, they have already been accomplished.

On the contrary, on the Xuanwu Continent, the standards are relatively relaxed.

Zhang Ming felt some vague identities, all of them were candidates recognized by the "Gaia Consciousness" of the Xuanwu Continent, maybe as many as two or three hundred? These people may be dead, but the identity marks they once had are still there.

"It should be a dead high-level of the Flame Horn people, as long as you have this permission, you can get a part of the source of the world from the World Tree."

"Looking at it this way, it's better to be stricter with permissions. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and sometimes, people are not as reliable as AI. ”

Zhang Ming thought in his heart: "This should be the result of the different composition of civilization, on the other side of the earth, civilization and democracy are the mainstream, and it is not easy for artificial gods to appear." In the Xuanwu world, authority and imperial power are the mainstream, and the people may be more superstitious about authority, which leads to subtle differences in the operating rules of Gaia's consciousness. ”

Without having time to hesitate too much, Zhang Ming enabled the function of "Consciousness Connection" from Earth.

An azure mysterious interface gradually appeared in Zhang Ming's mind.

This mysterious feeling is a bit like a spiritual illusion, and a bit like a lucid dream.

The power from Gaia was not coercive, and he could easily break free from this illusion.

At this moment, he is floating above the atmosphere, looking down on the entire planet!

Earthworld......

It seems that there is only one continent left.

I can barely distinguish the majestic and magnificent Himalayas, and the snow on the plateau has melted away at this moment; On the contrary, blue lakes appeared nearby, like eyes, dotted on the land, which should be a part of the "Suiren" project.

Urban areas are dotted with large plains that have turned into shallow seas.

Many cities have disappeared, and many have sprung up.

The biosphere is not going away, it is just taking another form, and both humans and animals are adapting to a new era.

Eight years have passed, and mankind has begun to build most of the new world with its own strength.

Looking to the other side, the emerald green primeval forest shimmers with the luster of life like emeralds; The yellow-brown spots of the desert are vast and desolate; On the western side of the Northern Hemisphere, a typhoon is occurring, spiraling clouds like frightened nature spirits.

Looking down on the whole earth, there is a sense of "the world is in my hands"!

Zhang Ming couldn't help but burst into tears, this is my hometown, hometown......

The changes in the world are really too big and too big to be recognized!

Most of the Earth's oceans, about 70% of the area, have been crowded out by the blue-black Demon God Sea.

The rest of the land formed the continent Pangea.

There are also a few pieces of land, hanging far away from the sea, that have not been incorporated into it

What does it mean to look at "Gaia consciousness", just cut the meat?

This feeling of looking down from a distance is truly amazing.

As a high-authority person, if he has enough World Sources, he can even control the weather and crustal movement in some areas!

Zhang Ming was actually a little anxious to know what disasters had happened to those lands.

"Just by using the authority of the world, I feel like that."

"How powerful should the realm of the true gods be......"

However, this time the "call" is at your own expense, and every minute and every second will cost money!

Zhang Ming was reluctant to let his "source of the world" be continuously consumed, and he could only complete his small goal as soon as possible.

"Please help me consciously connect with the unique individuals in the human race."

The earth's Gaia consciousness is a little sluggish, like an old data platform full of mountain code, Zhang Ming urged dozens of times in a row, and the blue tendons on his forehead jumped in a hurry, and it came from a belated recovery.

Theoretically, every living creature on the planet is able to connect consciously.

But because there are so many lives on Earth, it can't tell which is human, which is dog, and which is plant.

The current interface is macroscopic: from large countries to small islands, and then subdivided into cities is the limit, but it is impossible to subdivide it again.

"Then pick some important people at random, the people who can be connected should all be the kind of ...... with relatively high status"

"20 to 30, any more would be too expensive."

"Be quick, don't deliberately consume my phone bill!"

Zhang Ming actually wants to find his relatives and friends, no matter how bad it is, he also wants to find Comrade Wang Fumin to catch up with the past.

But for such a big thing, the weight of an old king is obviously not enough.

"Oh, by the way, the image is a little blurry...... They can guess who I am, but let's cover it up, I haven't shaved in a long, long time. ”

About five seconds later, a man in a suit and leather shoes appeared in this mysterious space.

Blonde and blue-eyed, it looks like a ...... Foreigner.

“Oh my god！ Gaia？ Gaia summoned me！！ "The guy found himself floating above the atmosphere and couldn't help but yell.

He rubbed his eyes, and saw Zhang Ming again, crackling out a series of foreign languages, looking extremely emotional.

"Hey, hey, can you speak Chinese?"

Lao Zhang on the other side was excited and embarrassed, and he even had a little shyness of social phobia......

Anyone who has not been in contact with humans for eight years will inevitably develop social fear.

But soon, Lao Zhang gave himself a lightning blow and overcame this emotion.

"Oh, Chinese, I will! Is this a dream, I was in the institute and suddenly I felt another strange sound, it seemed to ...... Probably Gaia consciousness?! ”

"It's amazing that Gaia's consciousness actually takes the initiative to contact humans!" The guy excitedly muttered to himself, "Did you do that?" ”

"Are you Mr. Zhang? How did you do that? amazing！ ”

The other party is a native of the United States, seems to be an important scientist, and Chinese is actually quite fluent.

Before Lao Zhang could reply, more and more people appeared in Gaia Space, and in the blink of an eye, there were more than 20.

One by one, the men looked at each other, and words like "Gaia" came up one after another.

The more people connected to consciousness, the cost of consumption increases linearly, and Zhang Ming hurriedly asked Gaia to stop pulling people around.

There are also a few people among them, who speak Chinese.

"It's ...... Where? Hey, this is ...... Professor Peter? ”

"Oh, hello, Mr. Qin. This is ......"

In fact, most of the human high-ups know each other, and even if they are vague at the moment, they can tell each other.

Soon, everyone's attention was focused on the unknown human.

In people's minds, there is some faint speculation.

"Friends, hello everyone, I'm Zhang Ming, and this is Gaia's consciousness space." Zhang Ming cleared his throat, didn't ink, and said straight to the point, "I summoned everyone here through Gaia's 'Consciousness Connection' function, and there is no malice. ”

"If you want to quit, you can do it at any time. But when I quit, I couldn't get in for a while. ”

"Are you...... Lao Zhang? One of the vague figures, a little hesitant, said in an excited voice: "My old Wang, how are you doing lately?" ”

The crowd was a little noisy, and more people recognized Zhang Ming.

But there are still a large number of foreigners who can't understand Chinese, and they are anxiously asking for something.

"I've recently ...... Not bad. To cut a long story short, there's a very important thing to announce to everyone! Everyone, please be quiet! Zhang Ming actually wanted to catch up with Lao Wang, but in front of everyone, he still said that he was down to business.

"The World Hunter may appear on Earth."

The noisy crowd gradually quieted down, and except for a few who were interpreting spontaneously, everyone focused their attention on Zhang Ming.

"World Hunters, as the name suggests, are capable of destroying a world's unique species. They are able to discover hidden worlds and lurk in them. ”

"If a novice civilization like us humans does not pay attention to it, it is likely that the disaster will expand and cause immeasurable damage."

Lao Zhang paused and continued, "According to my speculation, a species called the Soul Breaker may have lurked on Earth. ”

At this moment, the calm crowd was in an uproar again.

Mr. Zhang...... What is Soul Breaker? Someone asked.

Zhang Ming said: "A strange creature that looks like a donkey, and the disaster of the living dead in remote areas is likely to be caused by it." If left unchecked, it will harm the world. ”

"Plague of the Living Dead......"
