Chapter 179 Mechanical City and Dark Continent
Chapter 178
The moment Rosen finished teleporting, he immediately used the Void Shadow Escape to hide.
He came to a closed space of about several hundred square meters, which was completely enclosed by metal without any doors.
There were some workbenches behind him, and a control console in front of him, with dozens of light screens of various sizes on it.
Rosen could see dozens of large and small mechanical processing plants through these light screens.
This console seemed to be able to remotely control these mechanical processing plants?
Rosen didn't know how to operate it, but he could invade the program of the console through the virtual world of his left eye.
Soon he had obtained the authority of the console, which stored a lot of research materials about this spiritual realm left by Faris.
It turned out that the place where he was currently was the core of a sequence 6 extraordinary construction machinery factory.
As long as enough materials were provided, various sequence 6 mechanical creations could be mass-produced here.
The alchemical flying dragon he had purchased was assembled and produced here.
However, this mechanical factory could not be taken out of the spiritual realm because part of the control of this mechanical factory was not under control.
Mechanical City, this is a mechanical city controlled by artificial intelligence.
It once belonged to a branch of a mechanical civilization. One day, all the mechanical people in the city went crazy. The only AI that remained awake launched a guardian program, killing all invaders that threatened the mechanical people, and tried its best to improve the combat effectiveness of the mechanical city.
In the end, the mechanical city was still destroyed, and a period of history before the destruction constituted this spiritual realm.
Rosen operated in the core control room for a while and called up the external monitoring of the mechanical factory.
At this time, the mechanical city was divided into two parts, the sky and the underground.
The mechanical buildings suspended in the sky were well preserved, and the main body of the mechanical city on the surface was completely a ruin.
Because the crazy mechanical people were killing each other crazily, the artificial intelligence could not harm the mechanical people, so all the important facilities could only be suspended and launched into the air, and then the mechanical people were allowed to kill each other in the ground buildings.
When the last mechanical person died, the artificial intelligence would also self-destruct according to the program.
Then the spiritual realm was reset again and again, and the mechanical city was destroyed again and again.
There was no need for human extraordinary people to actively come in to weaken it, the spiritual realm of the mechanical city would naturally become weaker and weaker and go to destruction.
However, since Faris discovered this spiritual realm, he has been investing continuously to gradually restore the original level of this spiritual realm.
Faris used some means to make the mechanical race, which was left with only a few survivors after killing each other, fall into hibernation.
In this way, as long as the artificial intelligence does not die, this spiritual realm will not be reset.
Then Faris threatened the lives of these mechanical races and forced the artificial intelligence to hand over the most core mechanical factory to Faris. The artificial intelligence seemed to have no action in recent years, but in fact it has been studying the reasons why the mechanical race went crazy.
Faris has also studied this reason, and the progress of the research is far greater than that of artificial intelligence.
At that time, the strongest mechanical race in the mechanical city had reached Sequence 2. This one wanted to become Sequence 1. The common method of all races was to rely on faith, but the mechanical race was a rare race without faith.
So this Sequence 2 studied a thinking virus, wanting to enslave other mechanical races to believe in him.
The result was obviously a failure, and all the mechanical races in the mechanical city became crazy.
Now the greatest value of this spiritual realm has two things, the mechanical technology of the mechanical race and this mechanical factory.
Knowledge is easy to copy. As the level of the spiritual realm increases, the highest mechanical technology knowledge up to Sequence 2 can be obtained.
Mechanical creations can be produced through mechanical factories, but this Sequence 6 mechanical factory cannot be taken out of the spiritual realm.
It cannot be taken away, so the value to Rosen is very limited.
Unless he can find a way to completely control this spiritual realm.
There is essentially only one way to completely control this spiritual realm born from historical traces.
That is to find the carrier of historical traces in the spiritual realm. This thing may be a stone, a tree, a book, a house, or a life. There is no constant and no law.
Moreover, the carrier of historical traces cannot be detected by any means.
So the usual practice is to remove all resistance inside the spiritual realm, and then try to refine them one by one with spiritual needles in a haystack. If you are lucky enough to encounter the carrier of historical traces, you can completely control this spiritual realm after successfully refining it.
Of course, this also has a limitation. Humans can only refine the carrier of human historical traces.
The drawing paper that carries the spiritual realm paintings is essentially a man-made carrier of historical traces.
First of all, Rosen is not a mechanical race, and he has no way to make the artificial intelligence and the crazy mechanical race give up resistance.
If he could control this spiritual realm, Faris would not have left the mechanical factory in this spiritual realm.
So there is only one way left, that is to move this spiritual realm.
Faris did not move this spiritual realm back to the Adventure King City, most likely because he used it as a retreat for his family.
Rosen logged into the deep network of the spiritual world and soon bought extraordinary objects specifically used for moving the spiritual realm.
Half an hour later, the spiritual world messenger sent a palm-sized space traction teleportation array.
Rosen manipulated several mechanical puppets from the mechanical factory and brought the space traction teleportation array to the core position of the entire spiritual realm. After activation, the space traction teleportation array expanded to a diameter of tens of meters, and then dragged the spiritual realm a little bit under his control.
Rosen sent his self-portrait clone out of the spiritual realm, and then expanded the divine domain outside.
Under the push of the space traction teleportation array, the mechanical city spirit realm was pulled into the God's Domain territory little by little.
From now on, the entrance to this spirit realm will be bound to the interior of the God's Domain territory.
However, there is a price to pay for this. Pulling the spirit realm into the God's Domain territory is essentially the internal space of the God's Domain territory wrapping another space. Then when the spirit realm instinctively absorbs spirituality, it must absorb the spirituality inside the God's Domain territory.
Therefore, the God's Domain territory can only carry a limited number of spirit realms, and almost one is added for each sequence level.
Therefore, the God's Domain territory of Sequence 6 should not carry more than four spirit realms, and the spirit realm level should not exceed Sequence 6. Of course, if it is an artificial spirit realm such as a spirit realm painting, the number of spirit realms can be doubled at most.
Now the spirit realm has been moved back, but Rosen is still not very satisfied.
Because he can only control the mechanical factory inside the spirit realm, and he can't bring out the true value of this spirit realm at all.
Rosen thought of the Lord God's computer. I wonder if the ability to invade the network can take down artificial intelligence?
He opened the mysterious study in the control center of the mechanical factory and pulled the network cable out of the window.
He was about to connect the network cable to the network port, but before he could connect, the main god computer had already given him a second choice.
It turned out that after all the human world maps of the Hunter x Hunter Spirit Realm were lit up, the map of the Dark Continent could now be lit up.
And unlike the map of the human world, it requires the consumption of the human spirit realm that is completely controlled to light up.
The map of the Dark Continent, on the contrary, can only be lit up with the alien spirit realm that cannot be completely controlled.
He can now integrate the entire mechanical city spirit realm into the Hunter x Hunter Spirit Realm, and use it to light up the map of the Dark Continent. At that time, the mechanical city will also be integrated into the Dark Continent and become a part of the Dark Continent.
Rosen turned on the main god computer and opened the Hunter x Hunter Spirit Realm, and the map of the Dark Continent immediately appeared on the screen.
It is impossible to choose the lighting range independently, and the specific map to be lit up is completely random.
The moment Rosen chose to light up the map, the main god computer released a colorful light covering the entire mechanical city along the network cable.
However, in just a short moment, the mechanical city has been integrated into the Dark Continent and lit up almost one thousandth of the map.
If there are more than a thousand alien spirit realms, the full-time hunter spirit realm can completely light up all the maps and become a complete spirit realm.
The newly lit map did not bring Rosen a new identity, let alone a God's perspective.
After lighting up the map, he can only obtain basic teleportation permissions for this kind of spirit realm that is not completely controlled.
However, this is enough. Rosen immediately ordered Kurapika to transfer a group of scientific research talents. When this group of people moved into the mechanical factory, various mechanical extraordinary objects could be produced here continuously.
While the scientific research talents were still being selected, the artificial intelligence had already asked for help from the mechanical factory.
Rosen saw the rescue picture sent back by the artificial intelligence and found that there were two behemoths approaching the mechanical city outside the mechanical city. One of them was a bear-like creature with a body rotten and dozens of meters high, and the other was a giant with a head of 100 meters.
Obviously, this is a native species of the Dark Continent, and it was attracted by the sudden appearance of the mechanical city.
Judging from the spiritual fluctuations, these two monsters are both sequence 5 without exception.
They casually encountered extraordinary life of Sequence 5, while the strongest Nen user in the human world was only equivalent to Sequence 7. It was no wonder that the explorers of all generations of mankind were annihilated before they could get out of the shore of Lake Mobius.
Rosen pulled out the network cable again and connected it to the network port.
Whether he could completely control artificial intelligence determined how much he would invest in the mechanical city.
At the moment of network connection, the Lord God Computer easily broke through all the underlying codes of artificial intelligence and directly transformed artificial intelligence into an affiliated intelligent applet. Through the Lord God Computer, he could control the entire mechanical city through this applet.
Since he had already mastered the mechanical city, Rosen naturally did not allow the two monsters to destroy the mechanical city.
He flashed directly to the edge of the mechanical city in the void, standing on a tilted tower and looking at the two monsters approaching.
Before he got close to the mechanical city, the rotten giant bear and the headless giant had already encountered it.
The rotten giant bear was covered with wriggling bugs, but not only did it not have any rotten smell, but it was full of sweet honey fragrance. The huge mind energy rose up like a volcanic eruption, and all the wriggling bugs on the surface absorbed the mind energy and grew into bees.
However, this kind of bees is the size of a fist, and they covered the headless giant.
Facing the attack of the rotten giant bear, the headless giant was full of enhanced mind energy that was more violent than the rotten giant bear. The giant stick in his hand was wrapped with enhanced mind energy. With one stick, the destructive power was comparable to a nuclear explosion that swept away all the bees.
Rosen's vitality was already very strong, but the mind energy in his body was far less than that of these two monsters.
Of course, if they really fought, he could easily deal with these two monsters.
Because the mind abilities mastered by these two monsters did not seem to be particularly powerful, and their means were also very simple. Although the destructive power was very amazing, the damage to the enemy was equal to zero, unless they had other hidden abilities.
Sure enough, Rosen soon found that it was not that simple. The bees released by the rotten giant bear could self-destruct.
Moreover, after the explosion, a sweet and dizzying honey fragrance will be released, and this honey fragrance will be directly transmitted to the spirit. As long as you are within the coverage range, even if you are wrapped in energy, you will not be able to resist it.
So in just a moment, the headless giant with amazing destructive power has fallen to the ground.
The rotten giant bear came forward and lay down, biting the headless giant's body frantically. It seemed that the headless giant was about to be completely eaten, but the headless giant, who had lost one-fifth of his flesh and blood, instinctively fought back while losing consciousness.
The rotten giant bear was directly flipped under him, and then he was beaten to pieces with a stick.
The headless giant fell to the ground again, and his whole body began to regenerate and heal his injuries at an ultra-fast speed.
As for the rotten giant bear that was beaten to pieces, wriggling worms also emerged from the fragments of the corpse. These worms turned into bees and regrouped together, finally forming a rotten giant bear that was more than ten meters tall and smaller.
This time, the rotten giant bear did not dare to approach the headless giant, but turned its greedy eyes to Rosen.
Through its special talent, it could feel the huge vitality contained in that small body that made it salivate.
"It seems that I can't take advantage of it."
Rosen drew the Dragon King's Wrath from his hunting belt, and then activated Xiao Longnu's fantasy weapon.
The power of the Miracle Fairy Dragon was integrated into the Dragon King's Wrath, directly making this weapon, which was originally explosive in damage, even stronger.
Rosen locked the position of the Rotten Giant Bear one second later with the time scope, and sent the bullet to one second later with the future silencer.
The Rotten Giant Bear rushed towards him at high speed one second later, and was instantly hit by the bullet from the past that could not be dodged.
This was not an extraordinary bullet, nor a judgment bullet of spiritual transformation, nor a drawn bullet.
It was the skill bullet of the Miracle Fairy Dragon, a bullet that merged with the forbidden magic ball.
The Rotten Giant Bear hit by the bullet had an invisible colorful crystal ball suspended above its head. All the extraordinary abilities of the Rotten Giant Bear were sealed at this moment, so the released bees turned back into larvae and fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the second bullet hit the Rotten Giant Bear.
This time it was a dragon language magic vortex of flames. The flame vortex of hundreds of meters in radius completely covered the rotten giant bear, and even the larvae around it that were degraded by the forbidden magic ball were all swept up by the vortex of flames and burned into ashes.
If it was originally a few dozen meters in size, it would be a little short of a dragon language magic to solve it.
But how much mind energy can be left in the body after it was reduced to a dozen meters?
After successfully hunting down the rotten giant bear, Rosen continued to lock on the headless giant and shoot.
He had already seen that the rotten giant bear was actually very smart and had a high IQ, but the headless giant really had no wisdom, only instinctive destructive power and strong regeneration ability.
So it was a pity to kill the headless giant, it would be better to turn the headless giant into the guardian of the mechanical city.
The forbidden magic ball sealed the extraordinary ability, and the mind ball directly attacked the headless giant's spirituality.
Finally, the dream entanglement pulled the weak spirituality of the headless giant into the original dream, and then projected the ash curtain into the spirituality of the headless giant, and began to cooperate with the mind control to tamper with the memory of the headless giant.
After half an hour of hard work, Rosen finally transformed the headless giant's self-consciousness into what he wanted.
But this was not enough, and the mechanical factory began to produce special equipment for the headless giant.
The giant stick was made of some unknown wood, but it was very strong, but there was nothing special about it except that it was strong.
So the mechanical factory directly used extraordinary metal to make a giant battle axe, which not only had special damage to the spirit, but also had the characteristics of crushing, heavy hitting and automatic recovery. Throwing this axe was equivalent to a long-range nuclear explosion.
Knowing that the headless giant's defense was a weakness, Rosen also prepared a set of giant battle armor.
At this time, the headless giant truly had the combat power that a sequence 5 extraordinary life should have.
However, it was not enough to simply rely on the headless giant. Rosen also released several sequence 6 abyss demons who had been tortured into crazy believers from the Void God Prison. After becoming crazy believers, their brains had some problems, so it was not enough to rely on them to guard the house.
Rosen did not think that there were no stronger creatures in the Dark Continent than the rotten giant bear and the headless giant.
So he soared into the sky with feathered serpent wings appearing behind him, looking down at the mechanical city from the sky, and the ash curtain was projected down to cover the mechanical city, gradually forming layers of rocky mountains around the mechanical city, and finally the entire mechanical city was wrapped by a painted barren mountain.
Normal creatures would not come to destroy a barren mountain, which can greatly reduce the probability of the mechanical city being attacked.
Now that he knew that the alien spirit realm could light up the dark continent, Rosen's interest in the alien spirit realm increased greatly.
But now, he wanted to see if there were any good things in the dark continent.
Rosen looked down at Lake Mobius with God's vision and directly locked onto a new continent outside several continents in the human world.
On this new continent, there are now countless gray rats and mice.
This is the spiritual realm of the gray rat, and the changes brought about after lighting up the map.
Rosen opened the void picture album and summoned the gray rat he drew to teleport to this continent.
But in a moment, the gray rat had summoned a large number of gray rats and mice.
Rosen moved all the rats outside the mechanical city. Under the command of the gray rat, all the gray rats and rats were scattered in all directions. Some were responsible for collecting soil, rocks and plant collection standards, and others were responsible for exploring the surrounding dangers.
Millions of rats and thousands of gray rats were scattered, and only one in ten came back alive after half a day.
The good news is that the resources of the Dark Continent are very rich, and the bad news is that there are dangers everywhere in the sky and on the ground.
Rosen looked at the piles of specimens in front of him, among which there were actually several spiritual crystals.
The world view of Hunter x Hunter is only about the ability of mind. It seems that after becoming a spiritual realm, it has become dominated by spirituality like all spiritual realms, so that natural spiritual crystals have been born in the Dark Continent.
There are too many specimens in front of me, and almost all of them are unknown.
To identify the specific functions and values of these things, it is necessary to entrust them to very professional material scientists.
Rosen summoned more gray squirrels and mice to explore a larger area around.
Only then did he take the first batch of specimens and prepare to find a material scientist to identify their value.
Through the teleportation of the void phase, Rosen locked the spatial coordinates and teleported to the vicinity of the Thunder Capital.
This is worthy of being the core miracle ability of the Fairy Dragon Ball. Even though the Dungeon Kingdom and the Thunder Empire are far apart, the space teleportation can still be completed in just a few seconds. He also issued a bounty task for identifying materials through the professional guild.
This is not enough. Rosen waited until the cooling of the void phase ended and immediately teleported to the front line of the Abyss Battlefield City No. 9.
Then he issued the same bounty task here, so that after the two material scientists gave the identification results, they could compare them with each other. If one of them gave a false identification result, he could easily detect it by comparing them two by two.
Two days later, Rosen had received the results of the appraisal.
Most of the materials were of little value, and only three were found to be truly valuable.
They were spiritual crystals with vigorous vitality, honey-flavored corpse oil of a rotten giant bear, and an unnamed fungus plant, which contained a rare element needed for a curse potion.
Although in theory, all elements can be synthesized artificially.
The key is to see whether the cost of artificial synthesis exceeds that of natural collection. This rare element is the kind that has a very high cost of artificial synthesis. If a large number of such fungi can be found in the Dark Continent, it is not difficult to earn tens of millions of spiritual crystals a year.
Don't even think about wanting more income, because the market demand for that kind of curse potion is there.
Rosen quickly found the collection point of that kind of fungus plant by comparing the specimens with the map made by the gray rat man.
After escaping into the shadow of the void, he ignored all dangers along the way and quickly arrived at his destination.
Indeed, many extraordinary lives of sequence 6 to sequence 5 were found on the road, but the relatively single telepathic ability made these extraordinary lives unable to find Rosen hiding in the shadow of space, and naturally it was difficult for them to pose a threat.
In front of Rosen was a strange forest, and the plants in the forest seemed to be willow trees.
But there were no leaves, only willow branches, and there were facial features composed of tree knots on the trunks. As the facial features and nostrils breathed, the long willow-like hair would sway with the rhythm of breathing. On the roots of these strange trees grew a large number of mushrooms with purple umbrellas turning upside down.
"I'm rich..."
Rosen walked into the forest excitedly, and then reached out his hand directly from the shadow of the void to collect mushrooms.
All the mushrooms were collected, and it was enough for him to sell for more than a few decades.
Rosen then expanded the scope of specimen collection on a large scale, at the cost of hundreds of millions of mice dying tragically in the Dark Continent.
However, mice have a strong reproductive capacity. Theoretically, two mice can become hundreds of millions in a few years. The only thing that limits the reproductive capacity of mice is food, and the gray rat people on that continent have cultivated a large number of fast-growing plants suitable for mice to eat.
Even if tens of billions of mice died in a short period of time, the gray rats could make up for the shortfall within a month.
Mice began to invade a corner of the Dark Continent crazily, and Rosen collected more and more specimens for identification.
However, after being busy for more than half a month, the harvest was not as much as expected.
Those extraordinary materials that can be continuously collected can earn a few million spiritual crystals at most in a year.
Similar to the harvest of tens of millions of mushrooms a year, Rosen turned over the corner of the illuminated Dark Continent and did not find the second one. This made him realize that the appearance of that mushroom might not be accidental, but a kind of reward-like resource that must be born after the map is lit.
Fortunately, this half month was not wasted, and Rosen was finally familiar with the Dark Continent.
