Chapter 194: The Gamble Between God and Humans (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The roaring loud sound sounded continuously, and the three biochemical dragons that turned around and fled, first the three dragon heads exploded one after another, and then the entire body was also blown into pieces.
Lu Yao just stretched out her hand and shouted.
"Keep the corpses of my subordinates, I will take them to dissect and see." But it was too late.
Only the fragments of the corpses of the biochemical dragons were distorted all over the ground, and the vitality was amazing, and they wanted to gather together.
But it was in vain.
In the end, he could only squat on the ground with a pity on his face, and he didn't know where to pull out a wooden stick and poke a few pieces of meat that he wanted to gather.
"What's the use of dissecting this, I know it's driven by the apocalypse element." Nan Zhu no longer understood Lu Yao's brain, which was becoming more and more like a Frankenstein.
"It's different, you see that the zombies have completely rotted before, and they completely rely on the apocalypse element to drive the movement of the body. But these obviously still have flesh and blood to supply bioenergy, in this case, whether the Apocalypse element plays an auxiliary role, or does bioenergy play an auxiliary role? Lu Yao squatted on the ground, studying the wriggling pieces of flesh with a serious face.
Nan Zhu decided that he would ignore her.
"So, is this the end?" The female man still couldn't believe it, and she also wanted to go over and see the pieces of meat that were still wriggling on the ground.
Only then did I realize that both of my legs had been tightly hugged by the frightened Lisi.
"I, I survived?" Lisi, who had a handful of snot and tears, was full of joy on her face, and just when she wanted to rub her snot on the leg of the woman she was holding, she was directly thrown away by the woman.
A few soldiers not far away quietly took out some test tubes and other things from their backpacks and collected some pieces of meat wriggling on the ground.
"Captain, is this the sample that the scientists need?" A soldier asked in a whisper.
"Yes, but will it really work?" After listening to the conversation between the three biochemical dragons and Lin Xu before, the captain had already doubts about whether the scientists could study the antiviral serum of the birth virus.
Because if it is really according to what the biochemical dragon said, all this comes from the so-called gods, not biochemical technology, then the antiviral serum is naturally impossible to talk about.
When the soldiers and the female men had different thoughts.
Lin Xu's consciousness had already received the information about the god of death, Apar, that had just been found from the database of this base.
There are all sorts of praise and praise for the god of death, which can be ignored.
The most important thing is that there are some small truths revealed in various records rich in religious significance.
"The god of death came from the stars, and those demons who called themselves humans blocked the way of the gods." Nan Zhu also looked at this information in his consciousness, and his eyes widened when he looked at it.
"What's that? Why do you turn humans into demons here? Nan Candle was puzzled.
"So is the God of Death the Apocalypse who left the river system of the Dimension Reduction Channel? He came to this river system and brought the message that humans are demons? Mu Xiyue guessed.
"If you consider it in combination with the elements of the Apocalypse, it is very likely, but I still don't understand, why should the Apocalypse be the god of death? It is also necessary to spread the elements of the apocalypse and turn intelligent life into zombies. Lu Yao was puzzled.
"Ignorant demon humans, they don't understand the greatness of the gods, so they challenge the gods and want to bet against them." Nan Zhu continued to look at the materials.
"Bet? Is the Apocalypse a pact with humans? What kind of bet is it? Lu Yao continued to look down curiously.
"The gods have bestowed mortals with the body of eternal life and the blessing of immortality. However, mortals are bewitched by demons, who use science to tempt mortals, telling mortals that the power of the gods is within the reach of mortals, so the bewitched mortals no longer believe in the gods. From then on, mortals have fallen, and eternal life is no more. Pathetic, alas. ”
"If you don't believe in science but believe in God, these three views are distorted, right?" The South Candle is simply unbelievable.
"You can't reason with fanatics, some people just regard religion as a kind of spiritual sustenance, but some people are really crazy themselves, and they think that others are crazy." Lu Yao shrugged.
"So according to the records on these materials, the gambling contract between the Apocalypse Clan and the human race back then was that the Apocalypse Clan gave mortals eternal life, and the human beings taught mortal science, and finally saw which side the mortals chose?" Nan Zhu thought for a moment and concluded.
"It doesn't feel that simple." Lu Yao shook his head and said.
"There are a lot of things that don't make sense, it's really not that simple." Lin Xu nodded in agreement.
Not far away, the soldiers who looked at Lin Xu and the others standing there motionless, did not know that Lin Xu and the others were exchanging and reading materials in their consciousness.
Seeing that Lin Xu and the others were not moving, the captain gritted his teeth and walked over tentatively.
"Is there something wrong?" Lin Xu was shocked and looked at the other party.
"We, are we going to move on?" The captain asked tentatively.
"Go ahead, there's nothing of value left ahead." Lin Xu shook his head, after Zhenxing had already occupied the database in this base, there was indeed nothing Lin Xu was interested in in the entire base.
In other words, at this moment, the control procedures of the entire base are already under Lin Xu's control, and what is still in the base, he is afraid that he knows better now than the builder of the base.
"Of course, there should be a lot of valuable things for you, so you can just go in." Lin Xu gestured as he spoke.
At the same time, the door at the end of the hall, which had been closed, slammed open.
The sound of clanging and clanging came to mind, and all the originally locked doors scattered around the hall opened, and even the floor of the hall suddenly collapsed, and a path leading to the underground appeared.
The star controls the base and opens up all the passages it uses.
"Thank you, thank you." The captain swallowed his saliva with some difficulty and said, he didn't know what was going on, but instinctively felt that it should be something terrible.
"Don't worry, there's no danger in the back, even if there is, you can deal with it, go ahead." Lin Xu waved his hand.
So the captain saluted, and a group of soldiers poured towards the depths of the base, they still have their own mission, although they don't know, whether the samples they collected are still possible to be made into antiviral serum, but now that the mission has not been canceled, they must complete it.
"Let's go, let's go to the next place." Lin Xu looked at the disappeared soldier and turned around and said.
Miss Qiu, Nan Candle, Mu Xiyue and Lu Yao followed.
The female man also looked at the disappeared soldiers, and finally turned her head to follow Lin Xu and the others.
Liz, who was slumped on the ground, also hesitated, but finally struggled to keep up.
In this way, the group took the elevator again and returned to the bottom of the TV tower.
Lin Xu looked up, and Mu Xiyue on the side understood.
Raising his hand, a small sword qi gushed out from the sky, and disappeared into the TV tower in the blink of an eye.
Lin Xu nodded, and a sword light enveloped everyone and disappeared into the sky.
And in the TV tower, thousands of heavy zombies who were hiding had all been shattered by a small sword qi inside their bodies, and even the Apocalypse Element could not support their actions.
The Zombie King, who was restraining countless heavy zombies from hiding, was also sitting on his throne composed of countless corpses, and there seemed to be only a small wound on the surface of his body, but in fact, the inside of his body had also been shattered by the sword qi.
At this time, Lin Xu and the others had been engulfed by sword qi, crossed an entire continent, and came to another continent across the sea.
According to the information obtained from the previous base, after the zombie outbreak, the Grand Pope of Apar, the god of death, established an earthly heaven kingdom of the god of death.
Countless church leaders who believed in the god of death and gained eternal bodies after the zombie outbreak all gathered here.
This is also the purpose of Lin Xu's coming here, among these high-level church leaders, there must still be information about the god of death, Apar, that is not in the database.
"This is it." Mu Xiyue looked at the peaceful scene in the city below and said.
"Well, aren't there zombies breaking out here? Doesn't it mean that the whole world has fallen? How is this possible? Liz looked at the city below that was still functioning, and her face was incredulous.
"Is this a refuge? But that's not the case with the shelter on the radio. The female man was also puzzled.
In the half a month they had been hiding in the basement before, the only thing they could do was to listen to various radio broadcasts and know about some shelters, how could there be such a shelter that looked no different from before the zombie broke out.
And looking closely, the female man suddenly found that the people on the street who seemed to be normal, walking, taking the bus, and even taking a taxi were actually a little abnormal, and their skin was a little abnormally pale.
"That's right, this is not a refuge, but an earthly heaven for zombies, because the seemingly normal pedestrians you see are actually zombies, but they are self-aware zombies." Nan Zhu kindly explained to them.
"Self-aware zombies? Will zombies still be self-aware? Liz's eyes widened.
"Of course, not only is it self-aware, but it can also be immortalized in theory." Nan Zhu said with a smile.
"Eternal life? Are you sure? Liz was shocked.
She admitted that she was a little envious at this moment, after all, who wouldn't want to live forever.
"Do you think that's a good thing?" Nan Candle asked rhetorically.
"Isn't that a good thing?" Liz weakly expressed puzzlement.
"yes, maybe it's a good thing, and they don't know hunger, they don't need to eat or drink to live forever." Nan Zhu nodded and said.
"Can you survive without eating? Is it like those zombies? Liz's eyes widened, and she looked like she had such a good thing.
It was the female man who discovered the blind spot.
"In that case, why are they so busy?"
Yes, since there is no need to survive, and you can survive without eating or drinking, what are the people in this zombie city still busy with?
Looking at their hurried steps, it seems that they are no different from the social animals in the city before.
"You don't need to eat, drink, or even sleep, don't you think this is the best employee who can create the most value? Otherwise, where do you think all the funds to support the god of death come from? Nan Zhu said with a smile.
"So, becoming an immortal being with consciousness is just for them to be better squeezed? Isn't it okay not to accept the squeezing? The female man frowned.
"Yes, but if you don't want to work, your body won't be of much use, just keep an empty skull that can lodge consciousness, seal it in a sealed jar and throw it into the bottom of the sea, I'm afraid it's a more terrifying experience than death." Nan Zhu said with a smile.
And when I imagined that picture, I was obviously immortal, but I couldn't see it, I couldn't touch it, my consciousness was forever dark, and I could only be confined forever, even Lisi, who longed for eternal life, couldn't help but shudder.
"This, this is terrible, what is the meaning of such an eternal life, it is just to become an eternal slave." The female men all feel uncomfortable for the conscious zombies below.
"Yes, but this is indeed the kingdom of heaven on earth for those high-level churches, with employees who are always tireless and don't have to pay much salary, isn't it heaven!" Nan Zhu said with a smile.
As he spoke, the sword light had already landed towards the tallest tower in the center of the city.
The conscious zombies on the ground, like worker ants, also noticed this sword light falling from the sky, and some of them looked up and whispered.
The face, which didn't have much flesh after rotting, looked terrible, but more of it was a deep exhaustion that was worse than death.
"Hello, people from afar, you are so fast." On the top of the tower, a person wearing complicated sacrificial robes greeted Lin Xu and the others with an exaggerated expression.
It was as if they had known about the arrival of Lin Xu and the others and were waiting here.
"You know we're coming?" Nan Zhu asked directly.
"Of course, the great God of Death is omnipotent, and He foresaw your coming." The man said with a mysterious face and a god-like look.
"It was through the monitor outside the base that saw us flying this way." The south candle directly dismantled the road.
"That's the will of the gods." The god stick said unhurriedly, without the slightest embarrassment, as if it was really as he said.
Of course, what he didn't say was that they didn't expect Lin Xu and the others to fly so fast.
This is also one of the reasons why they are friendly now, after all, these few people who don't know their origins seem to be really powerful, so let's be gentle first and see if they can accept them as dogs.
"Please come in, the Great Pope is waiting for you." The god stick raised his hand and gestured.
The shape of the bones on the face of the god stick is clearly visible, and it only wraps its face with a layer of blue-purple skin, so no matter how you make a happy and welcoming expression, there is a deep sense of gloom.
Obviously, this god stick has also been zombieized, but he is a little more advanced, not only is he self-conscious, but his body is not rotten.
The bodies of the other lower-level welcome personnel who followed behind this god stick were also wrapped in a blue-purple membrane.
Lin Xu and a few people followed behind him, surrounded by many welcoming people, and walked all the way into the tower.
Finally, in the center of the tower, I saw the so-called Great Pope sitting on a high platform, and the high-ranking members of the Church of the God of Death standing around the Great Pope.
These people looked at Lin Xu and the others below with curiosity, contempt, or eyes of unknown meaning.
"Your Excellency, the converts have been brought." The god stick bent down deeply and saluted to the Great Pope and the high-ranking people on the high platform.
"Converts? What the heck? Nan Zhu was stunned for a moment.
The Great Pope on the high platform just nodded, and the Divine Stick immediately stepped aside.
Only then did the Grand Pope speak.
"Mortals, under the favor of the god of death, you have all kinds of miraculous abilities after the end of the world, and these abilities have given you many illusions that you are invincible, that you are superior. But mortals, you are only mortals after all, these powers are given to you by the gods, and the gods can naturally take it back, and whether you can succeed or not is the test of the gods for you, if you refuse this test, then the gods will also take back the gifts to you, and you will lose all your power and return to the ordinary. The archbishop on the high platform looked at Lin Xu and the others with his eyes high.
It was as if what he said represented the gods' judgment of Lin Xu and the others.
"You mean to say that if we refuse to take refuge, we will lose our power?" Nan Zhu tilted her head to look at the archbishop above, she was really curious now, did that archbishop really think so, or was he just fooling people here?
"Naturally, so whether to accept the test of refuge, choose to make a decision on you, mortals, the patience of the gods is limited." The archbishop's voice echoed in the tower, accompanied by the equally lofty eyes of the countless high-level people standing around him, and an invisible pressure pressed on Lin Xu and the others below.
Well, this is the feeling of the archbishop and others, in fact, Lin Xu and the others really didn't feel any pressure.
On the contrary, the female man and Lisi couldn't stand it again.
Lisi collapsed on the ground again, hugged the female man's thigh, and at the same time regretted again, she shouldn't have followed Lin Xu.
"I have a few questions that I want to ask first." Lin Xu pondered for a moment and decided to inquire about the information first.
"Mortal, it's not your turn to ask questions here." The archbishop's voice was low.
At the same time, the high-level people who were standing beside the archbishop also made angry glances at Lin Xu, just like the angry eyes of the Buddha, as if they were about to rush down and tear Lin Xu to pieces in the next moment.
There were even a few high-level people, and in the midst of the roar, the whole body quickly swelled up, and in the blink of an eye, it broke through the clothes, and became a giant ape, a giant python and the like.
His cold eyes stared at Lin Xu and the others below, as if they were about to rush down and swallow them directly.
"Looks like there's no need to talk about it." Lin Xu sighed.
Since we can't talk about it, we can only fight it first and talk about it.
At this time, Nan Zhu stepped forward and spoke.
"I have another choice, why don't you convert to us?"
"What did you say?" A certain high-ranking person next to the Great Pope thought that he had misheard.
"Convert to us, or you will lose your power." Nan Zhu repeated his words again, and even added annotations.
As a result, the Great Pope's expression became completely ugly, and he didn't even bother to talk to Nan Candle.
"Hahaha, this is really the funniest joke I've ever heard, convert you or you will lose your power." The high-level who turned into a giant python laughed wildly.
"O blasphemous man, be judged."
The high-level who turned into a giant ape jumped up directly from the high platform and rushed towards the location of Lin Xu and the others.
"Not only will you refuse to convert, but you will even attack us, and I will deprive you of all power." Nan Zhu looked at the giant ape in mid-air and pretended to say.
Suddenly, a large number of nanobots poured into the giant ape's body, and there was a fierce conflict with the apocalyptic elements in the giant ape's body.
The giant ape obviously only has very low permissions for the Apocalypse element, while Nan Zhu has intermediate permissions for nanobots.
Therefore, under the expulsion of the nanobots controlled by Nan Candle, almost in the blink of an eye, the apocalypse element in the giant ape's body was expelled from the body.
Then I saw the giant ape rushing from mid-air, and after Nan Zhu announced that he would be deprived of his power, his body visible to the naked eye quickly shrunk.
Almost in the blink of an eye, he returned to his normal body, and described it as withered, because after losing the support of the apocalypse element in his body, he could no longer maintain his body by biological energy alone.
But it didn't matter anymore, because the next moment, his entire body fell heavily to the ground, and with a clatter, it fell into a pool of corpses.
Suddenly, there was silence in the entire tower.
Whether it was the Great Pope and a group of high-ranking people on the high platform, or the divine stick and a group of attendants not far from Lin Xu and the others, etc., everyone's eyes were all suspicious.
"See? This is the end of blaspheming our Lord Lin Xu, haven't you taken refuge yet? Otherwise, you will be deprived of all power. With a playful smile on the corner of Nan Candle's mouth, she did not hide the ridicule and malice in her tone.
"Fake, this is false, our Church of the God of Death is the closest to the gods, how can we be deprived of the power of eternal life, you blasphemers, give me death." A high-level person who seemed to really believe in it transformed directly on the high platform, and then rushed towards the bottom of the high platform.
It's just the same, still in mid-air, the apocalypse element in the entire body was expelled, and instantly turned back into an ordinary person, and fell to the ground with a thud, and went with the one who died just now.
So this time, even the big pope on the high platform, who was barely maintaining his posture just now, couldn't hold back.
My whole body trembled slightly.
He didn't understand what was going on, obviously he was the Great Pope, and it was clear that the God of Death favored him the most, and he should be right?
But why would those who attacked them be stripped of their power by the gods?
This is not scientific!
