Chapter 252 Soul Absorption (1)
"How should we make that soul-detection instrument?" asked the middle-aged head again.
"You just said that there are soul-sucking monsters, and they are good at identifying souls. It seems that they can start from this aspect." Women are often much stronger than men in desperate situations. At this time, the man with an IQ of 250 is just trembling. Although he can flatter a few words, he dare not make any practical suggestions, even if it is easy to understand, he will not dare to make them. For fear that he will be dragged out to eat if he memorizes the meaning.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. How to arrange people? As for the soul sucking monster, let's catch a few." As the seven-headed monster said this, he asked the woman to take those monsters to do this matter.
…………
Ling Chen is not sure that there are already monsters who are targeting Fang Shaozhi, a time traveler. He is just continuing to be busy with his own affairs. A small monster siege in his previous life would have to think about it for a long time. Now he doesn't have to worry so much.
"Boss, there is a group of monsters on the sea. They surrounded us. Should we disperse them first?" One person reported to Ling Chen. He was also one of Ling Chen's divisions, but the name in normal times is more casual.
"Counting the time, the monsters on the sea are also beginning to spread. Are there any other abnormalities?"
"There are also some ships following these monsters, as if they were hunting. Perhaps these monsters have some special value." The man replied, of course he knew everything about Ling Chen and said everything.
"Okay, you told Ling Qi and the others to open the barrier and be on the third level of alert." Ling Chen said. He had already set up different precautions for the level of the monsters in his previous life. Now, compared with the previous life, there are more precautions than a hundred times more than a thousand times. The disaster has begun for more than a year. His place is as solid as a burning person, one person has not been damaged and one person has not died, and it has long become the holy land on the earth at this time, and the safe area in the game is nothing more than that.
"As for orders, boss," the man said, and then quickly went to arrange various places to prevent them from mentioning them.
…………
Behind a group of monsters like jellyfish, several fast warships were hovering around.
The people above were looking at the distance with high power telescopes on the bridge, talking to each other.
"Is Baota Island not far away?" asked one person.
A few miles away, a towering giant sea building floating on the sea surface. It undulates slightly with the waves, hundreds of meters above the sea surface. The part under the sea must not be as deep as a thousand meters. Thanks to the deep Pacific Ocean, the floating island can be carried, otherwise it would not be possible to be near the sea.
"Yes. It is the place where Ling Chen, a senior authority, has worked hard for more than ten years to achieve this scale. It is a giant floating island. Originally, our technology could not achieve the current style. We exchanged a lot of technologies from other worlds to successfully build it and can accommodate nearly ten million people to survive. In particular, Ling Chen has foresight and took the risk to obtain fusion power station technology and food factory technology. He can be self-sufficient at sea and not worry about being besieged. It can be said to be the safest place in the world," someone replied.
The few people who were talking to this bridge were not ordinary people. One of them was also one of Ling Chen's old acquaintances. Wang Hao, who has accumulated a lot over the years. Seeing that he could control the power alone, his temperament has gradually become more scheming from an ordinary person who was narrow-minded back then.
This is the power of the foundation, which can make people survive the immature stage and avoid failing once and being unable to recover until they mature.
Seeing Ling Chen's power becoming successful, he was not very envious, because he was relying on the changes in the current situation and began to truly lay a solid foundation and win over a group of subordinates. After all, in today's chaotic times, not everyone can be so lucky that they can be conquered by the right people and have a strong man to protect them.
Ling Chen released a warning, and these authority holders each occupy their own territory. When the disaster occurs, they gather their own hands and establish forces. These methods were naturally ordinary in the past, but in troubled times, if they have the force to protect one side of peace, they can have one side of power, and people can also grasp it.
As the situation was chaotic, these authority figures were worried that the human state would use the means of destroying the world to deal with these monsters, but in the end, it was quite safe and this did not happen. It turned out that as soon as the catastrophe occurred, the entire upper-level structure was in a mess, with the ability and responsibility to bear the nuclear power - the upper-level forces that fired weapons randomly no longer existed, and only one dispersed force groups could persist.
"Wang, we want to capture some soul-sucking monsters. Should we inform the people of this Pagoda Island first to prevent them from misunderstanding?" Someone asked Wang Hao for advice. In the past peace period, Wang Hao's skills were difficult to gather so many people, and he had no intention of gathering. Now the situation is changing, and once his ability is highlighted, some people gathered from the dragon people to plan and run for him in order to obtain his protection.
Of course, Wang Hao is just using his mentality to these people. What he trusts the most now is the people he handed over to him by Ling Chen back then. He doesn't let those people go out to do things, but gathers around him as a guard to prevent accidents.
By the way, he dealt with many crises one after another, and several times he had to force him to rely on the boat of civilization to save his life. This made him trust these people a little further. After a long time, he did not see any recurrences in them, nor did he covet his secrets and power like others.
"Well, let's notify me first," Wang Hao has become a little more scheming now and will no longer target others everywhere.
…………
Ling Chen soon received the news from the warship. After the situation quickly deteriorated, the remaining military-political and political forces had quickly collapsed and were incorporated by various means by various authority figures. Of course, they still would not reveal the fundamental secret of the boat of civilization, but instead used the previous words to attribute the disasters in this world to the exploration of the ruins of the spacecraft.
"Soul-sucking monster?" Ling Chen remembered the introduction of this monster in his previous life. They were the most intelligent species among monsters. Later, since the remaining human settlements were all those with advanced authority sitting in the array, it was difficult to break. They had already started to raise and reproduce humans. They harvested at the age of sixteen and even learned human cloning technology. Fortunately, the human cloning technology has stagnated after this disaster, and even Ling Chen's current birth level cannot be reached. Ling Chen has the direction and experience of later generations, so it is not difficult to replicate the progress of this cloning technology. However, a group of monsters are mysterious things in themselves. If you want to study natural laws and technologies, there are natural obstacles and can only be used for ready-made humans.
Fortunately, this group of monsters is not strong in themselves. Although this breeding is sensational, it has never been large in scale, which avoids the inversion of humans in the food chain.
"What does it mean when they come to seize it?" Ling Chen thought in his mind. If it were other people with authority, Ling Chen would not be more attentive. But Wang Hao is narrow-minded and cruel, and his nature is difficult to change. Even if he has a high position and more knowledge, he will at most hide it, but he will not change his nature. If he wants to change his nature, he will not be forced by the environment.
Moreover, he also knew the characteristics of the soul-sucking monster. Could it be that these people would think of it?
Ling Chen felt awe-inspiring in his heart. With Wang Hao's temperament, especially now that the disaster has caused the bottom line of many things has dropped greatly. For example, human life was at least important in the public face in the past, but now it is casual and despicable. It is great to be able to survive. As for the quality, no one has expected it. This can be said to be a regression, but it can only be said that humans have reached the brink of disaster again. The ruling creatures on the earth have encountered similar dangers, and most of them have not avoided it, otherwise they will not leave room for development for human beings.
What he was worried about was that these people discovered the characteristics of soul-sucking monsters. They can eat human souls and can be tempered into a treasure that improves people's spiritual potential. They can also be consumed as spiritual power. In a sense, they do not have to be restricted by the boat of civilization. This is like refueling a car. People can travel thousands of miles by just using their hands, without consuming their own physical strength.
These people may raise humans, then devour the monsters, and then extract these monsters themselves to accumulate fundamental power.
It seems that Wang Hao knows nothing less than himself. Ling Chen thought to himself that although the open competition between the authorities has eased, it has actually reached a critical moment. Whoever can go further depends on who can better grasp the essence of power. The authority provided by the Civilization Boat is a stepping stone. If you are confused by this stepping stone and forget the scenery behind the door, you will be a fool.
Spiritual power, spiritual potential, and civilizational nature are the bones of power. Others such as forces and human hands are nothing more than flesh and blood. If you don’t understand the former, you will not be able to win in the final competition.
Ling Chen's major advantages are becoming more and more prominent as the current situation changes, but other authority figures are also beginning to catch up. Without the previous concerns, as long as they are not exposed themselves, even if they act too much, no one can balance them.
In this way, many of the benefits that humans could still enjoy in the past may not be able to continue to have in the future.
Ling Chen couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the various hardships that humans suffered in the past century of changes in the next century. He could not help but take care of the people in his own power. He did not have the power to fight against other people, because he was on an equal footing with others in basic power and did not find the essence. In this way, relying solely on the power of reality, it could not threaten the rest of the people. They were willing to give Ling Chen a little face, but they just wanted to give him a request. It was really a force that feared Ling Chen, but this was not the case.
When Ling Chen thought of this, he came to the top of the tower. The view here is wide and he can directly see the movements of the monsters.
