My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1407
[1397. Chapter 1377 Shocking Secret, Two Ways to End the Disaster!]
Su Mo stood there in a daze, and this opening line from a classic movie flashed in his mind.
On the vast earth, disasters that truly affect the world are extremely rare, so rare that many people have never experienced them in their entire lives, and can only glimpse them in books, images or other people’s stories.
However, the real reality is that disasters are never far away. They are everywhere like ghosts, but they happen quietly in different forms and in different corners.
Imagine that if every step of human leap forward development is quantified into actions again and again, each action will raise the ball by ten centimeters.
Then as time goes by, the height of the ball from the origin gradually accumulates and becomes higher and higher.
This height is a direct reflection of the level of human development in various fields, and witnesses the efforts of mankind along the way.
However, at the same time, as the height of the ball continues to rise, the pressure it bears is also increasing.
The pressure comes from the fear of the unknown, the scarcity of resources, the deterioration of the environment, the side effects of various technologies, and even more from the expectations and uneasiness of human beings about the future.
These pressures are like invisible shackles, binding the ball and making it seem so heavy every time it leaps.
When the balance between rising and falling is broken, the natural disaster that greets human beings is a terrifying disaster.
It may be a full-scale war and fall to the bottom, smashed to pieces.
It may also fall several times while trying to support, and finally return to the starting point when it cannot be saved.
“Haven’t you figured out a long time ago that the energy in the universe is an eternal and unchanging truth?”
“It neither comes out of thin air, nor does it go out of thin air. Just like the phoenix nirvana, it is reborn from the flames. The new power draws nourishment from the old, dying things. After a long period of gestation and transformation, it finally blooms with brilliant light. The power of destruction also does not come out of thin air. It also has deep roots. It comes from the prosperity and vitality of the past, and is the inevitable destination of the new power after reaching its peak.”
“This circulation and conversion of energy is one of the most basic operating laws in the universe. Nothing can exist forever, and everything will go through the process from birth to prosperity, and then to decline. In this process, energy is always conserved. It will neither disappear nor increase, but circulate in different forms.”
Speaking of this, Adam couldn’t help but show an indescribable sigh
on his face. His eyes flickered with nostalgia for the past, as if he had traveled through the tunnel of time and space and returned to the glorious days of the past.
The Giant Mountain Star Region was once so glorious. In that era, it was at its peak, like a bright star, illuminating the entire Gravel Belt.
Its name became the faith and pursuit of countless people. Its glory was enough to shock the ancients and the present and be passed down through the ages.
Unfortunately, it still couldn’t escape the law of pinball in the end, failed to escape the reincarnation of history, and gradually fell into decline and destruction.
“Theoretically, the Giant Mountain Star Region is still a lucky one. There are countless star regions similar to us. They have all experienced the cycle from brilliance to gloom, and the changes from glory to destruction. But the difference is that when everyone is looking forward to the arrival of the unknown and mysterious game, only a few star regions are accidentally selected, and our Giant Mountain is one of them.”
“The game has a transcendent power. It can forcibly extract some destruction that will only erupt in the future in advance and convert it under pressure. If you, the direct participants, can digest the destructive power, that is, the disaster, then you can convert it into equivalent vitality for the Giant Mountain Star Region.”
“So there are two ways to end the disaster. Either digest all the destruction, or have enough vitality?”
Su Mo now completely understood.
Let’s analyze the first way to digest the destruction.
Combined with the three cold spring disasters that just happened, it may be a disaster that will come because of the endless demands of organisms on the environment. However, the game has used its transcendent power to forcibly extract this disaster from the future timeline, or extract it from other planets in the Giant Mountain Star Region.
The creatures of the New World suffered a huge impact in this disaster.
The severe cold of the spring caused those cold-resistant plants that should have thrived in this season to freeze to death directly in the ground. However, these dead plants did not disappear, and their lives were continued in another form.
They turned into nutrients, moistened the land in a cyclical way, and provided nutrients for future life.
At the same time, some plants with stronger cold resistance survived this disaster tenaciously. They survived this severe cold and became the helper of the new forces.
Further analyzing from an abstract perspective, when the disaster of the three late spring colds is completely over, humans will undoubtedly learn profound lessons from it and immediately begin to prepare for the next similar disaster.
Such preventive measures are to absorb the power of destruction, which will make the threat brought by the second three late spring colds come again, which may be greatly reduced, or even almost zero.
When one day, even if the decay of the star field is carried out by humans, the Giant Mountain Star Field will be equivalent to complete resurrection.
The other kind of having enough vitality is easier to understand, and the disaster Yongding in the future ruins is the best example.
After the death of those foreign gods, their bodies broke apart, and the absorbed energy was fed back into the world.
For example, a piece of land contaminated by nuclear radiation was purified by the bodies of gods, which was equivalent to one less disaster.
And when there is enough energy to offset all the destructive forces, that is, when there is enough vitality.
Without the destructive force, there is naturally no disaster, and everything returns to the origin.
Of course, because of the absorption of external energy, this origin may be significantly higher than before.
The ball would originally bounce at 0 cm, but now the slingshot has moved to 30 cm, and the ball will also bounce from 30 cm when it falls.
“Yes, you guessed it right, this is the only way to end the disaster!”
Adam nodded with relief. In the past dozens of game experiences, it is not that no one has realized this.
But no one has ever understood the fundamental way to solve the disaster at this point in the second year of the wasteland.
“Digesting all the destruction is a task that every star region is carrying out all the time. Before this cycle can be completely ended, one of the important responsibilities of the domain masters is to delay the occurrence of these two extreme states as much as possible.”
“And the other important task of the domain master must be something you can guess.”
“Resisting foreign enemies?” Su Mo thought thoughtfully.
“Haha, yes, it is thanks to you that we can intercept batches of key vitality.”
Speaking of this, Adam was a little eager to move.
It would be great if he could send Su Mo to each of the ruined edges of the Giant Mountain Star Region in turn and let him conduct a fishing expedition.
However, he also understood that such an opportunity was rare.
“Damn it, the few remaining vitality was wasted by the fools before, so you didn’t have many ruins to enter this time. I thought it was over.”
Adam said confidently, not mentioning that it was actually his idea to release a lot of vitality to the first few batches of players.
At that time, the Giant Mountain Star Domain was on the verge of destruction, and he was almost scared to death.
Of course, after the game came and grabbed the life-saving straw, he played all the cards in one go.
From the big and small jokers to 2AK, round after round of players digested more and more cards in Adam’s hand. The remaining cards
for the Earth players this time are not only 3, 4, and 5, but there are definitely no cards that can provide great help.
“Fortunately, you killed the false god Tengu, and the clones of the gods of the five royal families behind. Their scattered vitality has reopened the upward cycle and opened the deep sea and time ruins that you can enter later. And you actually killed a lot of gods in the time ruins and obtained more vitality. It’s incredible!”
“Is the expansion of the area of the new continent, the emergence of routes, and the dispute of ten thousand paths all due to the death of those gods?”
No wonder the gap between the real wasteland and the future ruins is getting bigger and bigger. Su Mo thought that the game had changed the version without authorization.
It seems that the reason lies with him!
“Otherwise, when you came, the Giant Mountain Star Region did not have more vitality to support your development. The human beings on Earth can come to this day thanks to your performance.”
After speaking, Adam smiled and said, “The route is very helpful, right? I specially chose it for you from all the rewards that can be selected in the game. Does it give you the ability to confront the aliens head-on?”
“Fuck, you made the route?!”
Hearing that the inexplicable route was actually chosen by Adam, Su Mo wanted to reach out and hit him.
If the route had not caused the human demand for food to increase several times, they would not have been unable to even harvest in autumn.
Moreover, the route also exacerbated the chaos among humans, causing constant disputes between major gathering places.
However, the route did make the human physical disadvantage less obvious, and some players who were lucky enough to draw rare routes even had the ability to compete head-on with aliens.
“Otherwise, do I have to choose some technological things for you?”
Adam had a puzzled but matter-of-fact expression: “You will be right if you listen to me. The applicability of technology is too low. It is only suitable for the most prosperous rising stage of a star field, providing enough time and excellent environment for development. It is not suitable for the current stage of destruction caused by natural disasters. You can think of it this way. Even if I give you complete information on nuclear fusion, how long will it take you, the Earth players, to achieve it? Ten years, twenty years, or even longer?”
“Moreover, nuclear fusion is only the most basic thing in a scientific and technological civilization. It also requires various accompanying technologies to help you enter the category of first-level civilization. The enemies encountered by the first-level civilization, those gods who ignited the divine fire, they only need to wave their hands to make all your weapons ineffective. The gap is too great!”
As he spoke, Adam thought of the former Yan Kingdom again.
“I helped them exchange a lot of technological rewards, including those module technologies you dug from the ground, but what happened? They were of no use at all, right?”
“They were still thinking about the ascension of individual machines until the end. I’m really pissed off by these people!”
“Where are we going to ascend? To the damn Death Territory?”
Uh.
Su Mo was a little embarrassed, not knowing whether to refute or agree with Adam’s point of view.
Strictly speaking, those technological rewards were not completely useless.
If it weren’t for the early excavation of Ma Gu’s shelter and the oil well, there wouldn’t be today’s story.
Or if there was no Liangfang Town of Ma Fei and the things stored in it, there wouldn’t be various developments later.
Including those who stole the authority, it was the God of Food’s authority that allowed him to officially come into contact with a higher level of power.
If they hadn’t stood on the shoulders of giants, how could they have the qualifications to stand here and talk today?
“I can help you redeem rewards to a certain extent, but the frequency and magnitude of disasters are beyond my control. If a large-scale disaster or punishment comes, won’t I have to wait for the next batch of players?”
“Suma, I can’t wait any longer. I don’t dare to think that I can meet someone like you in the future. This time is our last chance in the Giant Mountain Star Region!”
Su Mo nodded silently.
No one can remain calm after experiencing more than thirty failures.
Moreover, each failure lasts for several years or even decades. From the first batch of players to now, Adam has been waiting for hundreds and thousands of years.
“Besides, I haven’t fully considered your current situation. The Blue Star forces that followed the Phantom Mist, whether that Sunny Harbor City will be of great help to you, I specially selected it from Blue Star. And the colleges, foundations, and enterprises, do you think they will always appear to help you at the right time? These are all my credits!”
“No way, it turns out that you did all this?”
Su Mo was completely uncalm.
There are also many blue star cities that have descended into the wasteland, but so far, apart from Hulai City, no one has seen anyone discussing the scale of Qinggang City on the world channel.
Moreover, the appearance of the Foundation’s caravan is also very strange. It is actually around the Tianyuan Territory, no more and no less.
Including the later colleges and enterprises, it just gave time to react after the discovery.
If these are all Adam’s tricks, then everything can be explained.
“Hehe, believe me, I have witnessed the rise and fall of tens of millions of years in the Giant Mountain Star Domain. No one knows better than me what you need now?”
“What about before, why did those people fail with your “help” before?”
Su Mo retorted without hesitation, and saw Adam immediately showing an embarrassed look.
You understand?
You know a hammer, you know!
With this pitfall thing, no wonder the endings of those players before were more miserable than one another.
If mastering the World Cauldron allows people to have the qualification to choose to digest destruction, then mastering Adam has the right to choose to use vitality.
This is the complete authority, which must be used in combination, and neither is indispensable!
