Mina had already understood the threat of worms from Ryuichi's conversation, and Ryuichi even left some of the God Eaters with Mina to protect her. Although she has a wild temperament, Mina, who is essentially a girl, still has a natural resistance to things like worms.

Ryuichi slowly approached the Ancient Mage's Tower, and he tried to sense the faith of the believers. Amazingly, when the Ancient Mage Tower disappeared, Irma didn't tell anyone that Ryuichi was actually a giant, and the entire Ancient Mage Tower didn't know what was going on, and they still believed in the Ascended One. It's just that it seems that this belief has been strangely disturbed, and the prayers of the believers seem to be blocked by something.

But now it's close enough for Ryuichi to hear the prayer.

"O great Ascendant, strange narcolepsy is infecting one person after another, and no matter what their strength, whatever their faith, they suddenly fall asleep without warning, and they cannot wake up. At first, Master El Emma led everyone to find a solution, but a few days ago, even Master El Emma had fallen asleep. What are we going to do? What can we do? Now we're in a hurry to build the pod and move all the people who are asleep into it. But there are so many people in this ancient mage tower, even if we build enough nourishment pods, where are we going to get enough nourishment?Ah, great Ascendant, please answer my prayers, and I will ...... Uh, I'm ...... I'm so sleepy...... I ......"

The prayer was gone.

Apparently, this prayer had also fallen asleep.

There are many entrances to enter the Ancient Mage Tower, but Ryuichi has a special passage, because there are many teleportation arrays here, so Ryuichi can directly enter the interior through teleportation spells.

When I entered the interior, I saw that I had fallen asleep all around, and I looked at the scene from the scene. The movement of their sleep was very sudden and without warning. And even a fall and a broken head and bleeding did not stop them from sleeping.

However, there is an obvious problem.

These people who are asleep have obvious signs of worms. However, the activity of these worms has been curbed. Obviously, it is the rules of the human world that curb the activity of worms.

The worm of the gods is a regular life. It is a conscious life, and at the same time, it is a high-level life that is enough to parasitize in the body of the god. This means that its own existence will be suppressed by the rules of the giants. As a consequence of the suppression of these worms, they enter a dormant state with the parasitic person.

Ryuichi is now also suppressed.

"Ryuuji. Long Yi said in a low voice.

Ryuuji appears.

"The rules have been detected and are trying to resist and parse ...... Parsing fails, can't resist, readapts to the rules. Ryuuji opened his mouth and said a bunch of things, basically proving his guesses, even if it is the law of the gods, he must be honest and obedient here.

"Ryuuji, can you still parse the worm form now?" Ryuichi asked.

"Yes. Although suppressed by the rules, parsing worms is just my most ordinary ability. Ryuuji said.

"Come on, try. As soon as the dragon spoke, he let the snake pull out the worms in a person's consciousness. The man was about to wake up almost immediately, but he was cast by Ryuichi with a slumber spell that kept him asleep.

"This worm is a complete worm, not a fragment. Ryuuji said.

"And then?"

"But that's about it. These worms have no independent consciousness, they simply receive orders to be placed in higher life forms. They will seek out the strongest lifeforms in the vicinity to parasitize. Then wait for the next instruction. It's just that because of the restrictions of the rules, they will be suppressed from the moment they appear, and the parasitic human body will also cause lethargy later, so they have not had time to receive further instructions at present. ”

Ryuuji checked carefully and made sure nothing was missing.

"Hive, hive. That is, the bugs have just hatched. Long Yi said with a frown.

Ryuuji didn't speak, he wasn't good at guessing, he always made precise definitions.

Long Yi took out the giant plate and detected the fluctuations of the worms around him.

When he leaves the orbital space station. Long Yi knew that the number of these worms was not more than a thousand. And now, it has exceeded 10,000! Not only that, but the number of worms is still rising at a rate of hundreds per second, which is a funny hatching rate!

The worm's energy fluctuations are almost all over the entire Ancient Mage Tower, but at one point it is close to zero. That location was the cultivation area of the Ancient Mage Tower, and it was also the location of the hive that Long Yi knew before.

This time, instead of wasting time on those ordinary parasites, Ryuichi went straight to the point, and he had to solve the trouble of the hive.

Feeling Ryuichi's presence, a large number of worms surged in the direction of Ryuichi, forming a strange wave on the giant's slab. A large number of these signals stopped halfway through, and that was because they were suppressed by the rules and went into a dormant state, and these worms that had not yet had time to parasitize would soon disappear, and those that had just been born would swarm towards Ryuichi. As soon as the dragon immediately caused his own worm to fluctuate, almost at the same time, the hive's movement stopped.

At this time, in the perception of the worms, Ryuichi has been infected and has become one of them, so there is no need for parasitism.

Long Yi, who was temporarily safe, rushed towards the direction of the worm nest at full speed, but at this moment, an inexplicable fluctuation suddenly forcibly intervened in the worm that Long Yi had imitated.

"In the end, you're still here, Ryuichi. The voice sounded directly in Ryuichi's head.

"Who!"

The dragon roared, and the snake swept through its mind, but it couldn't find the source.

"You've followed me all the way here, don't you know who I am?" the voice continued.

Long was stunned for a moment, and then his brows furrowed.

"Hives. Long Yi whispered.

"Yes, I am the hive, the hive you have been looking for, the birthplace of all the worms of the gods. The voice said.

On the giant's slab, signals representing the worms of the gods began to pour in the direction of the hive.

"Come on, Ryuyi, let me see what kind of existence you are, the creature of Si Miao. The voice continued.

At this time, Ryuichi finally realized. That voice came from the worm that I had made! In other words, the hive had taken over the worm!

Yes, Long Yi imitated the whole worm, and although he didn't have any memory, he was still a worm!

Click!

The snake crushed Ryuichi's imitation worm completely, but a low laugh came from inside the Ancient Mage's Tower. It's like laughing at Ryuichi.

Almost immediately, Long Yi understood why, whenever he was about to go looking for the Ancient Mage Tower, someone would always be the first to awaken all the worms outside. And Long Yi immediately understood who had such great ability to wake up all the worms in the entire plane at once.

It's a hive, and only a hive has such a big capability!

As soon as Ryuichi arrived in the agricultural planting area, the whole area was dark, but it was not a problem.

"Activate the lights!all!" Ryuichi shouted.

Ryuichi has the supreme management of all giant devices in the entire universe, and this giant ship is no exception. His word is a command. The entire growing area is brightly lit.

Then, Ryuichi finally saw the origin of it all.

Worm nests.

It's called a hive, but it's actually just a black sphere. The surface is smooth and black, and it doesn't look like a sturdy material, with some ripples echoing on the surface from time to time.

"You can make it easy for me to find it. Long Yi said, slowly approaching.

"Actually, I was going to find my own before you did. Hive said.

"You're a bit awkward. And I can't understand your actions, are you looking for yourself?" He figured out that the hive always seemed to be one step ahead of it. But this kind of speed seems pointless, what use do you find yourself?

"No, I'm not looking for myself, I'm trying to control myself. Hive said.

"Can't you control yourself? You're out of control?"

"No, I'm a hive, just a tool. A tool used to create the Worm of the Gods. Although I have an independent consciousness, I have to obey my master, but I have come up with a very simple way to get around him. ”

"You intend to control a person and make that person your master, so that you can achieve your goal of controlling yourself. ”

"Worthy of a giant. The ability to grasp logic is far beyond the average person. ”

"But I have one more question. ”

"You say. ”

"Why are you telling me so honestly all of a sudden? ”

The hive paused for a moment, and then made a voice that seemed to be helpless: "Because according to my judgment, even if I don't tell you, you will forcibly analyze my existence through the diagnostic program around you, after all, it is very painful to be forcibly analyzed, so I think it is better to tell you directly." ”

"Diagnostics. Ryuichi glanced back at Ryuuji. As a god's law, he was called a diagnostic program by the hive.

"Hive, you are a creature of heaven. Long Yi asked suddenly.

"Yes, wise giant, I am from heaven. Hive said.

"What was the purpose of creating you?" Ryuichi asked.

"What do you think these worms do?" the hive asked.

"Parasitize and control. When Long Yi said this, he suddenly understood, "Control these gods?"

"Yes, that's right, a giant who amazes even the existence of Heaven. Hive said.

"The flip is that the gods are out of control, right? ”

"No, your definition is not accurate enough, it's not that the gods are out of control, it's that the kingdom of God is out of control. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Originally, the kingdom of God should only have nine creation gods, they would create nine universes, and then use faith as the power to fight each other, and initially decide the only god to enter the kingdom of heaven. However, the rules of the kingdom of God were off the right track, and the kingdom of God began to draw energy from the kingdom of heaven to create one god after another. In the kingdom of God, even a stone, even a cloud of air, can become a god! And the biggest problem is that the kingdom of heaven doesn't know how to restore order. ”

"So they decided to control every god?"

"Every god born in the kingdom of God has a control area reserved by the kingdom of heaven, and I was born to create the key to control, and all the gods who were born are under control. One of the most incredible things happened, though. ”

"What is it?"

"The first worm I created, it became a god, and it used divine power to control me in turn. ”

The hive seemed to let out a wry smile.

"Worm God ......"

"Yes, it controlled me, commanded me to enter the universe created by Simu, to control Simu, who at that time was called the youngest genius of the world. ”

"Why her, and not someone else?"

"It's simple, because Simuel created you giants, and in the hands of your giants there is the key to returning to Heaven - the Kingdom of Heaven. ”

This story is so complicated!

Long Yi felt that this matter didn't seem to be so simple, but now it seems that it is simply interlocking!

"But things don't seem to go the way you expected them at all. Long Yi said.

"It's not that I expected it, I'm just a tool, I don't need to anticipate it. But I have to say that things really didn't go the way I functioned. ”

"What the hell is going on?"

"First of all, Simiu, she actually took precautions against worm parasitism. Although she was not able to stop the worm from infesting, she was able to hide her control interface. Because of this, the direct control of Simiu evolved into an effect on her thinking, and eventually caused her to have a complete mental breakdown. But what I didn't expect was that she would use the power of the diagnostic program to force herself to violate the rules, and the diagnostic program was divided into 99,999 parts. But before that, she had prepared the eternal solids created by your giants, preserving all of her godhead and divine consciousness. ”

"I haven't heard Si Miu say anything about what you're talking about. ”

"It's not surprising, after all, she's not complete yet, and her fragments are still scattered throughout the universe. ”

"Well, what else?"

"There are other things that are basically already in your hands. Because I was given the instruction to control Simu, and this instruction has not yet been completed. So until this instruction is completed, nothing can be done but to continue to maintain this instruction. ”

Long Yi thought about it for a moment, regardless of whether the process described by the hive was true or false, there was nothing wrong with it from the logical aspect.

"So, now that I'm here, standing in front of you, let's talk a little bit more substantive. Long Yi said very directly.

"What is it?"

"You had a lot of time to parasitize and control the entire Ancient Mage Tower, but why didn't you do it before that? Ryuichi asked.

"Because it is only in the human world that the commands that inhibit me are loosened, and I am free to make worms. Unfortunately, as you can see, despite the large number of worms I have created, none of them have succeeded in becoming my master. ”

On one side of the hive are a few strangers, who are probably the closest to success. However, due to the suppression of the Worms of God, they could not maintain consciousness at all, and they fell asleep before they could become the owners of the hive.

"Now, that's the last question. Long Yi said.

"You mean, I'm friend or foe, right?" asked Hive. (To be continued.) )
