"——There has been a large-scale breach in residential area No. 25! Where is the maintenance team?"

"All exits are blocked! We're screwed!"

The Pope in the "Kingdom of God" sat on his seat, receiving emergency communications from all over the "Kingdom of God" with a blank expression.

Not only those in the "Kingdom of God", but also distress signals from other homes, but the content is extremely single, and lacks their special ciphertext, so it looks like a disguise.

Perhaps the "homeland" that is still barely maintained is the one he is in.

He understands that the reason for all this lies in the loss of the "evolution accelerator", this divine machine that endowed them with "civilization", can also help other life to advance.

It's just that he thought that as the chosen people of "God", they could resist the invasion of these foreign enemies, but it turned out that they were limited to this "world" and they were powerless against the enemy.

He was now wondering why "God" created them, and why didn't he come out to save them when they were about to perish?

He felt that they had done a good job, but these technologies they were proud of were useless in the face of those unknown existences.

"...Maybe, 'upward' is the right path?" He suddenly murmured to himself, and the priest beside him immediately lowered his head after hearing this, pretending that he hadn't heard anything.

But this "pope" doesn't matter now, and it doesn't matter if the matters that were strictly prohibited by him are announced now, after all, they are about to die.

"... Priest, tell me, what is 'up there'?" The Pope named the priest who just bowed his head, his expression full of thought.

This period of history, which is regarded as taboo, is only known to a few people, and unfortunately, the priest who is a close confidant of the Pope knows about it.

However, after hearing such a question, the priest also realized the current situation, and no longer flinched as before.

He looked at the Pope's face, even though the ground around him was shaking and the screams were endless, he didn't care, he just hesitated for a while before sincerely answering:

"I thought that the 'above' is the real 'world', and the place we are in is actually just a part of this world..."

Naturally, it is impossible for their social regime—scientific theocracy—to breed fools, and there are not many smart people among them.

Even though many unscientific "common senses" have been formed due to the distorted living environment, there are always some gifted people who can detect subtle violations through various phenomena.

But everyone tacitly did not delve into this matter, but just lived like this.

It is not because of the strict prohibition of the Holy See, nor is it because their methods cannot continue to explore, they are very clear that their actions are deceiving their ears.

But they still chose to remain silent, because it was a huge shock to their worldview, and they couldn't accept that their "world" was actually just someone else's "experimental field".

They would rather lie to themselves than accept this kind of news that can make people commit suicide.

But at this moment of demise, the priest is the same as the Pope, it doesn't matter anymore.

But after hearing his answer, the Pope nodded, and through the gate of the temple, he saw more and more seawater pouring in here.

Up to now, their population of one million is probably only a few hundred, and it is impossible to maintain the basic amount needed for the reproduction of the population.

Although being amphibians, they can survive in water for a while, depending on where they are.

This is the deep sea thousands of meters below, the water pressure can directly kill them, and there are many ferocious deep sea fish here.

The moment they were entangled, their doom had already been announced.

Before the sea water was about to wash away here, the pope asked the priest a question for the last time:

"...Do you think someone would create a 'world' just for fun?"

At this time, only the priest was left beside him, and most of the other holy servants were looking for a chance to survive because of panic or survival instinct.

But the pope and the priest have already seen through the essence of this place, and it doesn't make much sense to live for them.

"You already have the answer, don't you?"

"...That's right. Does the 'God' who created us just live in someone else's 'world'..."

The torrent swept across, and everything it passed was reduced to ruins.

And the last "homeland" of this amphibious civilization was also dragged into the deep sea and gradually disappeared.

At this time, Li Wenyuan had already left here, acting in a hurry.

He had a brief conversation with the "psychic octopus" and confirmed that it was a "battle between natives."

Although the "spiritual octopus" behaved dishonestly at the beginning, after being beaten up by Gray Wind, it became quite docile.

This species located in the deep sea was infected by the "evolution accelerator", and became extremely agile, and even managed to connect to the virtual world.

With the blessing of psychic power, their wisdom became more advanced, and it didn't take long to discover those "deep-sea observation stations" located in the middle of the ocean.

This "soft civilization" originally wanted to cooperate with that "amphibious civilization". After all, they didn't know the depth of science inside these "mechanical creations", but the amphibious civilization directly regarded them as "outland evil gods" and launched an attack.

The result is self-evident, the enraged "soft body civilization" naturally launched a counterattack, and quickly wiped out these amphibians that had to rely on the "observation station" to live.

During this process, the software civilization discovered that their enemies did not realize the "essence" of this world, and regarded this deep sea as the real "world".

In terms of worldview cognition, this amphibious civilization that has developed for a long time is not even as advanced as the soft civilization. The evolution history of the "observation station" constrains their cognition and confines them in this narrow "well".

The current software civilization is trying to find a way to study the technology in these observation stations, and the "psychic octopus" that Li Wenyuan encountered is one of their scientists.

They want to leave this sea-filled planet and take a look at what the universe really looks like.

Before leaving, Li Wenyuan still left the blueprint of the hyperspace engine. After they can understand and successfully manufacture their first hyperspace engine, there may be another rare aquatic civilization in this galaxy.

But this is just a trivial matter during the journey. Given the strong imagery of this "fish tank" planet, Li Wenyuan now has a sense of imminent crisis.

Just based on intuition, he feels that his guess is correct, but there is no evidence to confirm this guess.

For this, he still needs more information and more production capacity, and he may not be able to understand all this until he can reach the level that humans once had.

"...you have to speed up your pace..."
