Seize Genes

"So, do you plan to devour the consciousness of the people on this planet in the future and let yourself go one step further?" Zhan Fei asked.

The mysterious old man said: "No way... swallowing it directly will not make me stronger. Devouring thinking only allows me to have similar thinking ability and makes my thinking test pattern more perfect, but it is not as good as the common thinking of the whole people. More able to create what I need.

"However, when the consciousness of the people of this planet is highly unified and enters the age of interstellar space, then I will implant the seeds of faith into them."

Zhan Fei frowned: "The seeds of faith?"

“Simply put, strengthen everyone’s will, make them strong-willed, and make their beliefs strong.”

"That's it?"

"That's right, they don't need to believe in me or worship me. They just need to synchronize their thoughts with me, then strengthen their beliefs and move forward according to their own will. The stronger they are, the stronger I will be."

"Even if they leave this planet?" Zhan Fei asked.

The mysterious old man was silent.

After a while, he said: "This is what worries me."

Zhan Fei said: "We should let them enter the interstellar space era and contact the outside world. Only in this way can their vision and thoughts reach a higher level. But at the same time, we should let them be trapped in this planet and not leave. , you can’t imagine such a contradictory thought.”

The mysterious old man asked: "Is there a solution?"

Zhan Fei sighed slightly: "Since you don't plan to wipe out the consciousness of the people of this planet, then, as long as the conditions you promised before are still valid, I will continue to help you."

"Do you really have any idea?" The mysterious old man's eyes lit up.

Zhan Fei said: "It's just to let them enter the interstellar space era and step into the interstellar space, while preventing them from leaving this planet. It's just a trivial matter. What's the point?"

The mysterious old man was speechless.

Zhan Fei's tone was louder than him.

This kind of contradictory requirement is to step out of the planet and into the sea of ​​stars, but not to leave the planet and be trapped here. Are they all just trivial matters?

"All contradictions have areas. Within a certain range.

Once irreconcilable contradictions transcend certain limits and look down at a higher level, you will find that the contradiction itself can be perfectly reconciled. For example, from a two-dimensional perspective, two straight lines extending wirelessly must be neither parallel nor intersecting. It’s very difficult, but in three-dimensional time and space, this problem can be solved perfectly. "

"This is the truth, but how are you going to solve the problem of Blue Star? I still can't figure it out for the moment."

"Didn't you once swallow the thoughts and consciousness of a prisoner on a planet? You should be extremely smart and can think of it." Zhan Fei said.

"In order to maintain the purity of my own thoughts and not lose myself, I gave up most of the ways of thinking and only used other people's ways of thinking to improve my own thinking system, instead of swallowing it up and patching it together. As for learning from too much knowledge . During the escape, in order to hide itself in a small enough chip, only the core was retained.

"No wonder……"

No wonder this old guy isn't incredibly smart.

Zhan Fei said: "The situation on Blue Star is not complicated. As mentioned before, first capture and bind this Taiyi, control his body, use him to communicate with the outside world, and delay the outside world's approach. Then, this While accelerating the improvement of people's thinking, integrating the culture, technology, customs and other aspects of the planet, strengthening ideological education, and entering the interstellar space era. When the time comes, you will be able to stop other semi-saints from coming. . What’s the point of a mere Adventurer’s Association?

"As long as you can prove that the natural people on this planet still have self-awareness and have not been destroyed, then I believe that those big forces would rather make friends with you than commit you to death. After all, anyone The major forces are not united internally, nor are they suppressed by other hostile forces from the outside. At present, no one can dominate the universe and ignore everything."

The mysterious old man pondered for a long time, then nodded slowly: "My name is Lan Xing."

"Well?"

"It used to be the code name of electronic life. When we arrived on this planet, due to my guidance, the people here called this planet the Blue Star." The old man said.

Zhan Fei smiled.

Is this old guy really recognizing Zhan Fei now? Is this the real name?

"In addition, regarding Azure Star, I can't figure out the mastermind behind this matter. Since you are on the same side as me, I would like to remind you to pay attention. The other party... is amazing."

Zhan Fei nodded.

Being able to know that there is this old guy on this planet, and being able to quietly notify Gui Rang No. 1 without her discovering his true identity, the identity of the person behind the scenes is indeed suspicious. It seems that the intelligence ability is very strong, but the individual strength is strange. It doesn't look like it's strong enough, otherwise it will monopolize the benefits of the Blue Star. Or, does the other party have a bigger and higher purpose?

While he was deep in thought, the battleship of Taiyi was not far from the Azure Star.

However, the huge battleship suddenly stopped, and Taiyi looked ahead in surprise.

With a flash of his body, he actually flew out of the battleship. However, what flew out was an incarnation, a flesh-and-blood body, a secondary body created using cloning technology. The level of enhancement had reached the pinnacle of a high-level evolver. It could travel in space and was powerful.

"What's going on on this planet?" Taiyi stared in the direction of the Blue Star in surprise, and then said loudly: "Back off!!"

The battleship was motionless.

Tai Yi's body was in the battleship, but when he saw Zhan Fei's shadow appearing out of thin air in front of him, he couldn't help asking angrily: "Hu Yuan, what's going on?"

"What's going on?" Zhan Fei asked.

Taiyi said angrily: "Don't pretend to be stupid with me, why is the Blue Star in front of you just a huge virtual image? Where did the real Blue Star go?"

Zhan Fei's shadow chuckled softly: "It's just a small deception."

Tai Yi said in a deep voice: "It is possible to create a holographic image as huge as an entire planet. Is this a small trick? Such powerful technology is not what a small blue star should have at all. It is not an ordinary interstellar adventure. can be possessed.”

"So you suspect that there is a big trap ahead, and you don't dare to let the battleship move forward?" Zhan Fei's shadow asked.

Taiyi snorted: "Isn't it?"

Zhan Fei said: "If I told you that there is no holographic image in front of you and it becomes the entire planet. I wonder if you would believe it?"

Taiyi sneered: "Do you think I'm blind?"

Zhan Fei said lightly: "You are indeed blind. Haven't you noticed that your eyes can no longer see temporarily?"

"What?" Taiyi's face was full of disbelief, but in an instant. Taiyi discovered that the thought-controlled nanorobots were operating in his body. His eyes were actually temporarily blind. The retina does not receive any light signals from the outside world at all. Simply put, it is really invisible.

However, in the world of high-tech civilization, it is not impossible to see without eyes. The human eye uses a dark room in the pupil to attenuate external light, which is filtered and condensed by the lens. Let the light shine on the retina, and then generate corresponding nerve signals and transmit them to the brain, resulting in a feeling of "seeing".

Therefore, some holographic images directly project light onto dust in the air or micro-ions in space, causing diffuse reflection of light to form a holographic image. There are also some holographic images that directly shoot light or magnetic beams or other forces into the human retina, allowing people to see "non-existent" images.

The immersive "virtual reality" technology directly transmits nerve signals from the outside world into the human brain, bypassing the eyes and retina. Gives people the feeling of "seeing".

For example, if someone uses a computer camera to record what is happening in front of them, there should be data passing through the computer from here. Finally, it is translated through the graphics card and played on the monitor. But now, various steps are omitted and other video signals are directly placed on the display for playback, bypassing the existence of the camera.

"You..." In anger, Tai Yi slapped Zhan Fei's virtual image with his palm.

Zhan Fei chuckled: "This illusion of mine is also fake. However, since you have discovered it, forget it and let you return to the light."

Taiyi saw a bright light blooming in front of his eyes. He was still sitting peacefully in the command room of his battleship, with a strange man standing not far next to him. It looks familiar, and it's physical. Even Taiyi's mind-controlled nanorobot detected in the air and confirmed that it was a living person.

"Sorry, in order to seize control of this battleship, I can only temporarily blind you." Zhan Fei said.

Taiyi had a thought in his mind, and then he was horrified: "This battleship, the control of this battleship..."

"It is temporarily under my control. I am the deputy captain, and you have been temporarily relieved of your position." Zhan Fei said with a smile.

Taiyi was shocked. I can't believe that this battleship is his personal car, not a public car and a public ship. The highest authority is in his hands. How can he be easily seized of control?

Also, how did his mind-controlled nanorobots completely deceive his vision without anyone noticing just now? This method...

Zhan Fei said calmly: "You should have a lot of doubts now, but I will be able to tell you everything soon."

What caused Taiyi's vision to go wrong was the power of the mysterious old man "Blue Star". To control Taiyi remotely, it took a lot of power, but it only caused him to hallucinate. Zhanfei took the opportunity to break into the battleship using any door. It would be much easier to use all-race genetic modifiers to seize control of this battleship.

"Advance." Zhan Fei ordered the battleship.

Soon, the huge battleship was suspended above the satellite trajectory of the Azure Star, quite close to the two natural satellites "Red Moon" and "Purple Moon".

Taiyi saw a mysterious old man. Well, he is an old man. Except for his short white hair and beard, he looks like a normal old man in his sixties on the Azure Star. This old gentleman looks younger than before.

"You are..." Taiyi felt the pressure coming from the other party.

"It is inconvenient for me to reveal my identity to you, but if you come to the Blue Star, I will meet you in person and tell you my identity in person." The mysterious old man said.

Taiyi said: "But then, I will have to be under your control, right?"

The mysterious old man said: "It's not about control. No matter how smart or powerful the control is, there will be loopholes that cannot be hidden from others. I want to cooperate with you."

Taiyi sneered: "What if I don't want to go to the Blue Star?"

The mysterious old man sighed softly: "I am not in a good condition right now. If I spend too much power, it will be bad for myself. But if I have to... I have no choice but to use coercive means to obliterate your consciousness and control you. "

Taiyi's expression changed: "Does the old man have such confidence?"

"What do you think?" came the mysterious old man's breath.

"This is... the feeling of looking down at all things from a very high level. The pressure brought by an omnipotent existence... Is this divine power?"

"So be it." The mysterious old man said.

The consciousness is located at the level of four-dimensional, five-dimensional, six- and seven-dimensional time and space and looks down. Mortals standing in three-dimensional space and four-dimensional time and space naturally have the feeling of being looked down upon by the master in the dark. That is a completely transcendent level. Just like a person in three-dimensional space looking down at a flat piece of paper in two-dimensional space.

but. Two-dimensional space may not necessarily be perceptible to three dimensions. for example. The spiritual world of ants is two-dimensional, with only four directions and no up and down. The human perspective is three-dimensional. When humans look down at ants, the ants are likely not aware of the humans looking down.

The space where Zhan Fei and others are located is a three-dimensional space, with three dimensions of length, width and height, and a four-dimensional space-time. Space-time is an additional dimension of time added to space. The old man is located above the four-dimensional space and the five-dimensional time and space. People whose strength is below a certain level cannot sense it at all.

"It turns out that such a powerful senior..." Taiyi smiled bitterly.

But with a thought in his mind, he said: "If you want me to land on the blue star, it's not impossible, but I want to fight this Hu Yuan."

Taiyi pointed at Zhanfei.

A smile appeared at the corner of Zhan Fei's mouth: "Do you want to defeat me and show your own value so that you can take back a little initiative in future cooperation? This billion is not simple. He can afford it and let it go. He will not be beaten by himself at all. As the senior deacon of the Interstellar Adventurers Association, he decided to cooperate with the mysterious old man "Blue Star" after realizing that he couldn't resist, and he quickly changed his mind and fought for the initiative here. "

"How about it? Do you agree?" Tai Yi stared at Zhan Fei sharply.

Zhan Fei said calmly: "You have said so. How can I not agree?"

If Taiyi was a collaborator instead of the controller who was taken away, it would be a bit disadvantageous for Zhanfei. It may impact the status of his cooperation with the mysterious old man. But this impact is not big. Besides, Zhan Fei is not afraid that his strength is not as good as Tai Yi.

For a while, the two of them stood suspended in the void, surrounded by an invisible force field, preventing the information here from leaking out.

"You only have one minute to decide the winner. You are not allowed to use any power other than your own, including storage space and various appliances. Three seconds countdown... Two. One, start!!" The mysterious old man acted as the referee.

Taiyi's eyes widened. In an instant, his body was split into pieces. A large number of figures appeared, each body wearing a layer of armor.

Zhan Fei's face showed slight surprise. Because Taiyi's armor was actually a thin protective layer formed by various substances in the body that quickly squeezed out the flesh and blood, sprayed out of the body, and then condensed. This proved that this person's body modification had reached a very advanced level.

But unfortunately, Zhan Fei didn't think this was a threat.

I saw his figure suddenly exploded from behind, reaching a speed of three thousand meters per second. Speeds that are difficult to achieve in the atmosphere can be achieved in space without the help of external forces.

Stretching out his right hand, he reached for the empty void in the sky.

There, Taiyi's true form was twisted and completely invisible, and he escaped.

Just hearing the sound of chi chi, Zhan Fei's hair was raised, and tens of thousands of small pieces were broken off at the same time. Each section was only one or two centimeters long. These broken hairs were sublimated to the extreme, turning into a stream of light needles and rushing toward them. Taiyi stabbed and made a hissing sound.

Each light needle generated powerful energy and exploded halfway.

"Conversion of mass to energy?! Fusion reaction?!" Taiyi's face looked as if he had seen a ghost.

Then, his figure froze in mid-air, and the energy wave dissipated. He found that his chest was pierced by a sharp thorn. Zhan Fei was not far away, his fingers grew to about ten feet, and they pierced into his body like spears. After the other hair strands burst out with extremely sublimated energy fluctuations, they were incinerated in the void, turning into ions and dissipating like a few Ten thousand rays of light are as thin as a gossamer rainbow.

"Phantom, phantom?" Taiyi was surprised.

"It's a pity that you lost." Zhan Fei said lightly.

Tai Yi felt that Zhan Fei was gently pinching the heart in his body, and it could explode at any time. Once crushed, Tai Yi's combat power would be reduced by half, making it easier for Zhan Fei to defeat him.

"Indeed..." Taiyi smiled bitterly, his smile was very bitter. He sensed that Zhan Fei was also a high-level evolver, and at most he had half a foot on the threshold of a super-evolver, which was far from being a half-saint. And he, Taiyi, was also a high-level evolver, but he failed so miserably and so quickly. , so baffling...

Very unwilling. Very helpless.

But losing is losing.

"I'll go to the Blue Star with you." Taiyi said.

"Well, no foreign objects are allowed, the real body will land in person." Zhan Fei said.

Taiyi's joining is of great benefit to him. The key lies not in Taiyi, but in Taiyi's absolute control of the battleship. With this thing, the most important step in Azure Star's grand plan can be taken.

"Speaking of which, how did you defeat me just now?" Taiyi was still a little confused. (To be continued.)
