Chapter 444: The World-Ringing Snake [Part 6] (k)

“Second, at the same time, there were reports that it appeared simultaneously in Xindongdu, Al Rahim, and Guanyuan.

From this, we can infer that the size of this alien is unimaginably huge."

“Third, any form of observation will result in the death of the observer.

The average time it takes to kill someone from direct visual contact is 1.2 seconds, while viewing through electronic media increases that time to 3.5 seconds, which is just as deadly.

Judging from the huge crater with a diameter of ten kilometers left at the first appearance site, there are traces of radiation and tearing left on the edge of the crater.

This alien organism possesses significant physical attack capabilities and has a clear material form. "

“Fourth, the space around it has experienced severe reality distortion.

Any electronic equipment will become inoperable in the area where its figure appears."

"Fifth, this alien is very likely alive and has self-awareness."

Speaking of which.

Kalu adjusted his glasses.

"Based on the information we have so far, this root body has been tentatively classified as T5 and named: GN-109 Ring World Snake."

When Kalu said this, he suddenly paused.

He pulled a remote from his pocket and pressed it.

The projection screen behind him switched immediately.

A video of only three seconds began to play. The picture was extremely blurry and full of mosaic-like noise, which had obviously undergone special image processing.

within the screen.

Against the dark background of the universe, a huge yellow-green planet is rotating slowly.

This planet is very familiar to everyone present.

It is the Cape planet under their feet on which they depend for survival.

However, the most surprising thing is that the planet is surrounded by a pale "star ring".

Seeing this, everyone was shocked.

The senior executives in the White Tower are all top talents from various countries.

Naturally there is no such thing as illiteracy.

They all knew that there was no so-called ring around Cape Star.

It is also impossible to form a star ring because the conditions are simply not met.

Because Cape is close to the sun, the solar wind is very strong.

It will continuously blow away the dust, gas and other materials around Cape Star, making it impossible for these materials to accumulate around Cape Star to form a ring.

The video plays for three seconds and the screen pauses.

Until then.

Only then did everyone see clearly what it was.

That was not a star ring at all, but an extremely huge pale snake!

Its body coiled and meandered, completely surrounding the entire planet.

Seeing this scene, everyone understood why it could be seen all over the world before.

It turns out that this guy's body is so big that it directly surrounds the Cape Planet.

It was simply terrifying.

“This is the true form of the target. However, what is currently presented is a simulated image processed by AI image processing and has no direct connection with the original surveillance video.”

Kalu explained.

"Because even if the images are processed, they cannot be observed by the naked eye."

Wait until Kalu finishes speaking.

throughout the conference room.

They fell into deathly silence, and everyone was so shocked by the scene before them that they were speechless.

t5, as a conceptual level.

This heterologous body, except for the individual itself.

The rest cannot be contained at all.

And, if you're not careful.

It could bring devastating disaster to the world.

And the giant snake in front of us is long enough to encircle Cape Star.

It is indeed very appropriate that it would be named the World-Ringing Snake.

You should know that the equatorial circumference of Cape is 449800 kilometers.

What is the concept?

Even if the high-speed rail runs at a speed of 350 kilometers per hour, it will take more than 53 days to complete a circle.

If Cape wasn't so huge.

The population is large.

With so many alien species appearing, humans would have been exterminated long ago, and there would be no hope for people like them.

And now, this alien organism is circling Cape Star in outer space.

Its body length is probably even longer than the circumference of Cape's equator.

Among the existing archives of objects in the White Tower, the largest one is the alien entity code-named "Wish Star".

Its main appearance is a comet with a faint blue glow and a unique teardrop-shaped outline.

According to orbital calculations, the Wish Star is about 800 kilometers long and will pass through the Cape Star's low-Earth orbit along a fixed trajectory every three years.

As the comet streaks across the night sky, anyone who witnesses its trajectory will feel a strong urge to make a wish.

Statistics show that there is a 50% chance that a wish will come true.

But this 'gift' is not given for free.

It will come with an unacceptable and huge cost.

All those whose wishes come true will die within three days from various "accidents" such as car accidents, drowning, or even choking while eating.

Cannot interfere in any way.

Given its huge size and special operating rules, it also poses a threat to the outside world.

The White Tower eventually classified it as an uncontainable, observable T4-level, natural disaster anomaly.

Fortunately, as long as you don’t make a wish on your own initiative.

[Wish Star] does not have a direct impact on the observer.

However, at this moment, even the huge [Wish Star].

In front of this giant snake that is big enough to wrap around the entire Cape planet, it is just a drop in the ocean.

Think of this.

Inside the monitoring center, everyone fell silent, each pondering over the intelligence they had just received in their minds.

Direct line of sight is not possible and any form of observation is prohibited.

A terrifying size that is large enough to orbit a planet.

It can easily leave a huge pit with a diameter of ten kilometers on the surface.

These characteristics combine to create a suffocating reality.

You have to know that, in reality, the effective destructive diameter of a normal nuclear bomb's explosion is only a few kilometers.

This giant snake is able to leave a ten kilometer deep pit on the ground.

But this does not mean that this is the opponent's limit. After all, the opponent's terrifying size is there.

Not only does it possess overwhelming physical destructive power, it also possesses a highly autonomous intelligent consciousness.

In terms of threat level alone, it ranks among the top three most dangerous objects in the Foundation's possession.

The only thing to be thankful for is that, according to current observation data, this behemoth has been hovering in Cape's outer orbit since it appeared a few hours ago, with no signs of further intrusion into the atmosphere.

This performance is quite similar to the operating mode of [Wish Star].

They all seem to follow some rules that have not yet been cracked.

But the problem is that no one knows how long the activity cycle of this alien organism is.

What will the next appearance bring?
Think about this.

The rest of the staff also expressed their own opinions.

However, since we know too little information, there is no better solution.

The meeting continued.

However, the target of the discussion became the attitude towards the World-Ringing Snake.

The group discussed the use of nuclear weapons, the reality reset button of GN-001, and even asking for help from other humanoids, alien entities with their own selves and the ability to communicate.

Each proposal was constantly submitted and then rejected.

The reasons are either because it is ineffective or because the risks are too great.

After all, the opponent's size is there.

It is almost impossible to contain it.

Any rash contact may lead to serious consequences.

At this time.

Someone spoke.

This is a young man with some white hair.

He looked at the projection screen.

The planet surrounded by the snake shadow remained frozen there.

"Mr. Kalu, as you said before, the twelve-winged angel statue codenamed lb-727 and the crying girl codenamed lb-296 also disappeared with it.

I want to know, have the two missing variants been found yet?"

Hear the words.

Kalu frowned.

"No, since they disappeared, the energy fluctuations belonging to these two alien entities have never appeared in the abnormal radar again."

Speaking of it.

He glanced at the white-haired young man.

"Wayne, do you suspect that the disappearance of these two aliens is related to this codenamed GN-109 Ring World Snake?"

"Not a suspicion."

Wayne shook his head.

"The disappearance of these two alien organisms is definitely related to the existence of this World-Ringing Snake. They are very likely in the stomach of this World-Ringing Snake. The nearly ten-kilometer-long pit at the original location has proved this."

Hear the words.

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

It is not uncommon for alien organisms to eat other organisms.

But it can't be killed.

Because the alien organism itself has the characteristic of being indestructible.

But no matter what he thought, no one interrupted him.

At this time his voice continued to be heard.

“Based on the analysis of existing clues, the Ring World Snake possesses a certain degree of intelligence.

Therefore, I think it is no coincidence that the enemy's attack target is locked on the location of the twelve-winged angel statue.

I even suspect that the reason why this world-encircling snake appeared was because of the twelve-winged angel statue."

Then he expressed his guess.

such as.

Why doesn't this world-encircling snake attack other places, but just the place where the twelve-winged angel statue is imprisoned?

This is all too coincidental.

Of course, he didn't know the reason.

Moreover, these are just his guesses and can only be used as a reference.

"Of course, I'm not saying that the two aliens are dead. I'm more inclined to believe that they are trapped somewhere. After all, aliens cannot be eliminated."

Speaking of it.

Wayne shook his head.

“However, if my inference is correct, we may be able to try to establish a communication channel with this world-encircling snake.

After all, as of now, this world-encircling snake has not shown much desire to attack.

If we can reach a consensus, perhaps it can help us deal with those difficult foreign bodies and eventually form a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship. "

After Wayne said this.

Everyone's eyes flickered.

This is a good idea.

But actually implementing it is a huge challenge.

——Snap, snap.

The crisp and slow applause suddenly sounded, which was particularly harsh in this closed conference room space.

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused forward.

It's Kalu.

The chief researcher, who usually had a cold personality, was now clapping his hands gently with a strange smile on his face.

However, what is even more horrifying is that his eyes are no longer human pupils, but have turned into a pair of scarlet snake pupils, cold and strange, as if they can penetrate the soul.

"good."

His voice was still gentle, but it had an inhuman quality.

"He was able to deduce this much based on just these scattered pieces of information... He is truly a talent."

The moment Wayne's eyes met those scarlet snake eyes, he seemed to fall into the boundless abyss of the universe.

The feeling of insignificance flooded his body like a tide. It was the trembling of an ant looking up at the stars, and the instinctive fear of ordinary creatures facing a higher being. His body trembled uncontrollably, and his teeth almost bit his lower lip to bleed.

"You are the Serpent of the World."

Wayne seemed to have thought of something.

The pupils of both eyes contracted violently.

The words seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of the throat, so hoarse that they hardly sounded like a human voice.

The entire conference room fell into silence in an instant.

The color drained from everyone's faces at a speed visible to the naked eye. Some people subconsciously wanted to retreat and escape, but froze in place the moment they raised their feet.

They were horrified to find out.

His body froze, and he was completely out of control, as if it was forcibly taken over by some higher-dimensional will. He couldn't even move a finger.

Fear spread like a tide.

But there was nothing they could do. They could only stare at Karu in front of them with wide eyes.

To be precise, it is the T5-level alien 'Ring World Snake' that we were just discussing.

Don't they understand what's going on?

This island serves as the White Tower's headquarters.

The defense system is naturally not to be underestimated.

There are several powerful alien entities inside.

For example, the Pillar of Sleep, codenamed T5, GN-017.

Externally, it appears to be a pure white stone pillar about 3.2 meters high with a smooth and flawless surface. Its material is similar to white marble, but its hardness far exceeds that of ordinary minerals.

The surface of the column is engraved with relief patterns of an unknown civilization, depicting countless creatures sleeping with their eyes closed, from humans to animals, in various shapes and sizes.

It has a forced sleeping area.

Centered on GN-017 Pillar of Sleep.

All defined alien targets on the entire island will gradually fall into a dormant state.

The external threat level is extremely low.

Another example is the tz-013 rules stele.

A basalt stele about 1.8 meters high.

Use a knife to carve restrictive clauses on the tablet, such as 'Aliens must not harm humans'.

Goals need to be enforced.

Each time a new rule is added, the stone tablet will erode a user's ability (such as language, standing, smiling, etc.)
There are many heterologous organisms like this.

These xenobiotics have been accumulated by the White Tower over a long period of time. They are very powerful and have very few side effects.

The effects of some of these heterologous substances can even be combined with each other to exert greater power.

It is precisely because of the existence of these alien organisms that the safety of this island is ensured.

Since the establishment of the White Tower headquarters.

There have never been any accidents.

But at the moment.

This near-perfect defense mechanism seems to have a loophole.

This alien organism, code-named GN-109 World-Ringing Serpent, was able to enter the island without anyone noticing.

He also manipulated Kalu in front of everyone.

However, compared to the loopholes in the defense mechanism, those alien organisms were ineffective.

They were more inclined to believe that the being before them had already surpassed the definition of all alien beings.

Thinking of this, fear fermented silently.

There was nothing they could do but watch Hu Qi.

No, perhaps even the action of 'looking' is a charity that the other party is allowed to give.

After all, based on the information just summarized about this 'Snake of the World'.

The existence of the other party cannot be observed in any form.

Hu Qi didn't care at all what everyone was thinking.

He merely released a wisp of mental fluctuation, and the atmosphere in the entire conference room suddenly froze.

The pupils of everyone present shrank into thin lines at the same moment, and the whites of their eyes glowed with a strange bloody light.

His eyes turned into strange snake pupils like his.

This change lasted only a moment.

When their eyes returned to normal, the fear in them had been replaced by fanatical piety.

"Owner."

Uniform whispers echoed in the conference room.

They have regained control of their bodies.

But no one chose to escape.

Hu Qi waved his hand, and these people retreated respectfully.

After leaving the room, their expressions instantly returned to normal.

After the metal door closed with a slight sound, the only sound in the huge conference room was the sound of Hu Qi's knuckles tapping on the table.

“Interesting world.”

The corners of Hu Qi's lips curled up in a playful arc.

Digesting the memories in this body's mind.

His real body is still outside Cape Star.

What occupied Chief Researcher Kalu was just a wisp of his spiritual consciousness.

There is indeed something special about this place.

Because of the heterologous organisms.

From the outside, the island's location is completely unobservable.

But this means nothing to him, the true God.

Just used some tricks.

For example, information was obtained from senior officials from various countries abroad.

So he found this place.

As for the so-called alien creatures on this island, it is almost impossible to stop him.

At this moment, browsing the memories of this body.

I also have a clear understanding of the worldview of this world.

There are all kinds of anomalies in this world, and humans have no power to resist them.

Furthermore, these anomalies cannot be eliminated and can only be temporarily contained using various methods.

Humans name these anomalies xenomorphs.

The reason why Hu Qi came here.

I just want to know more about this world.

It is undoubtedly appropriate to start with this white tower.

He even suspected that his inability to get out might be related to some alien organism.

Because the essence of these so-called alien organisms seems to be transformed by the rules of this world.

This is also the reason why these things cannot be eliminated by humans and can only be contained.

Think of this.

He stood up and walked out of the meeting room.

Everyone they met along the way stopped and saluted with an expression of respect.

Obviously this body has a very high status here.

This is true.

As the lead researcher.

On this island, Kalu's position is the second in command, except for the fifty-year-old master of the White Tower.

One person is inferior to ten thousand people.

Follow the silver corridor.

It didn't take long.

He stood in front of a heavy alloy door.

After seven verification procedures including iris scanning, fingerprint verification, blood sampling, dynamic password verification, and three-dimensional facial recognition, the metal door with a cold light finally opened slowly.

What appeared before my eyes was a long and narrow corridor extending into the depths of darkness.

On both sides of the corridor are containment units made of special transparent materials, each unit is like an independent world.

Some contain entire virgin forests, some are miniature deserts, and some imprison a small, distorted piece of starry sky.

This is the core alien containment area of ​​the White Tower, which is specially used to detain abnormal beings with higher intelligence.

The materials used to make the containment chamber also come from a certain alien entity.

Its external appearance is a transparent glass material.

It can continue to grow, and the containment chamber made of it has the ability to isolate the actions of most alien organisms.

——Wow!
The sudden sound of water broke the silence.

Hu Qi turned his head to look at the source of the sound.

It was a seemingly empty containment unit, with only an old stone spring inside.

At this moment, the calm water surface suddenly surged violently, and the gushing water column condensed and shaped in mid-air, and finally turned into a transparent girl.

She stood barefoot on the water, the flowing liquid forming her vague body.

At this moment, she seemed to see Hu Qi.

The whole person came forward.

"Karou, are you here to see me?"

She had a sweet smile on her face.

Hutch took a look.

Information about the other party emerged in his mind.

No. lb-510 Narcissus.

This individual has the ability to transform freely, and can switch between human form, various animal forms, and even abstract geometric shapes at will.

It will fall into dormancy at low temperatures and become violent and extremely aggressive at high temperatures.

Therefore, they were kept in a constant temperature containment chamber, with the temperature stabilized at around 25 degrees.

The other person at this temperature is the most normal.

The most common external appearance is that of a little human girl.

Her intelligence is no different from that of a human girl. She is lively and active, extremely friendly to humans, and enjoys activities with the staff. She also cooperates very well with various tests.

It is one of the few humanoid aliens that are easy to get along with.

“Has God returned?”

Hu Qi ignored her question.

But asked another thing.

“I’m back, and God is inside!”

When it comes to 'God'.

A human look of fear appeared on the girl's face.

It seems that he is very afraid of this "God".

After saying this, his whole body turned into water and flowed back into the spring behind him.

Hu Qi didn't care about this and just walked forward.

The cold alloy corridor stretched out on both sides of him, with observation windows of containment cabins running along both sides.

As his figure passed by.

One part of the containment chamber was quiet.

And there were rustling noises coming from some cabins.

For example, a baby-like creature put its palm against the glass, and snowflake crystals emerged in the white mist it exhaled, staring at him curiously.

Another example is the translucent jelly-like life forms bouncing constantly in the cabin.

Each contraction emits starbursts of different colors.

Another example is a winged pen suspended in the center of the cabin, constantly drawing on the ground.

The things you draw will become three-dimensional.

However, due to the special nature of the containment capsule.

These three-dimensional paintings appear for a few seconds before disappearing again.

These strange and bizarre xenomorphs are numerous.

Hu Qi did not stop.

He didn't stop until he reached the innermost containment cabin.

This cabin is very different from the others.

It was converted into a study room similar to a model house.

Several walls are lined with dark wood bookshelves.

From the floor to the ceiling, stacks of books were neatly arranged, and the ancient books with leather covers and the words on the gold-embossed spines glowed in the dim light.

In the center of the room, there is a heavy oak desk.

An old-fashioned table lamp with a brass base was on, and the warm yellow light shone through the dark green glass lampshade, casting a soft halo on the table.

There was a figure sitting in front of the desk.
