Eternal Night

Chapter 350: Really... Crow Mouth
(PS: Thanks to the leader of the hunting gods, the sharp corners, for the reward. I will add another chapter here. Thank you again for your support.)
Wu Xianxiao felt a sense of disconnection.

The flesh and blood monster he was fighting seemed to have some hidden secrets. His perception was fully open, and he indeed felt an incredible urgency from the polluted information.

It wasn't an urgency to kill him or devour his life, but an urgency to tell him something.

But he asked many times in a row, asking if there was anything he wanted to say, and the only answer he got was those two fixed words, and then blood and flesh flew around, as if they wanted to kill him.

It was naturally impossible for Wu Xianxiao to stand there and take the beating. Moreover, with the increase of people from outside, the degree of recovery of the flesh and blood inlay was also rising wildly. It had reached a very high level. Wu Xianxiao could clearly feel the recoil force when fighting against it. From the beginning when he rushed in to now, the power of this flesh and blood monster had become at least five times stronger, and the flesh and blood density of its body was becoming greater and greater.

This terrifying monster has become stronger and stronger.

But it was still within his control.

First of all, there is still the problem of not breaking the defense. This monster only has simple flesh and blood attacks, a purely physical system. This kind of attack poses no threat to him at all, at least before the force is strong enough to break through his inner strength, his iron skin and bones, and the physical defense of the human immortal martial arts, it poses no threat to him at all.

Secondly, there is Kratos's killing and crushing every thirty seconds. Combined with the true damage of the upgraded title of Common Man, it is really a critical hit that directly kills the flesh and blood within a thousand meters around, and turns them directly into ashes.

The only threat was that this ghost thing desperately wanted to escape from the second level of space and attack humans outside. This was beyond Wu Xianxiao's tolerance limit, forcing him to keep running around in the second level of space, looking for any possible space cracks, and then catch this ghost thing back to the second level of space.

"…So, what the hell are you trying to tell me? Do you have any real reason or intelligence?!"

Wu Xianxiao roared, but what greeted him was still endless rolling blood and flesh.

On the other side, there were already 4,600 people from outside.

At the same time, with the few people who set up the shelter as the center, they have begun to set up simple fortifications and positions on this flat ground. Of course, it is really "simple". After all, this is the baseline reality Zero Point Three Dream World. Let alone technological weapons, even many of the physical rules of this world are different from the real world.

There are scientists in the team, although their number is small, but they have the opportunity to come into contact with the low-baseline real world, and some of these scientists are willing to come. According to their detection of this world, especially the detection of this gray space, they have confirmed some incredible things.

For example, in this world, darkness and light are not a matter of light illumination, or even a matter of photons, but something else... They are unable to detect it because they do not have the corresponding scientific tools. After a simple test, they believe that in this zero point three dream world, light and darkness exist in specific material forms.

"…I'm sorry, if I understand correctly, according to you, the darkness here is a kind of 'matter'?" Zuo Zongpeng asked a scientist.

So far, except Wu Xianxiao, the other six presidential candidates all hold public office in the unified government of mankind. Zuo Zongpeng is an official in charge of academic, research, and technological transformation in the unified government of mankind. At this time, he was also listening to the reports of these scientists.

A scientist nodded and said, "Although it is incredible, it is true. In this world, darkness is a kind of 'matter', but it is different from the matter you think of. It is more accurately described as a thing, such as flame and electricity. In the real world, it is a concrete thing that can be seen and even 'touched'. It is a specific object, but darkness is not. Darkness is just an adjective for the absence of light. However, this world is different. The darkness in this world is a kind of object, a specific 'matter' that can be carried, measured, and divided... Excuse me, sir, do you understand what I mean by this description?"

Zuo Zongpeng looked at the darkness in the distance that was surging like liquid. He nodded and said, "I couldn't understand it at first, but after seeing the real thing, I can understand what it means... Let's continue."

The scientist continued, "This manifestation of darkness and light has completely different physical properties from our real world, so we have to use other theories to explain this situation more clearly. Fortunately, we now have the dream world and extraordinary powers... Our explanation is that the darkness, light, or something else in this world are concrete things that exist in the form of elements, rather than just the real image of photons, not just pure light and the shadow behind the light."

Zuo Zongpeng thought for a moment and said, "Elements? Light elements? Dark elements? Fire elements? Water elements? Things like that?"

The scientist nodded immediately, and he said repeatedly: "Yes! This is exactly the result we analyzed. This world is not a reality composed of elementary particles, but a reality composed of elemental structures."

Zuo Zongpeng thought for a moment and asked, "No, that's not right. If that's the case, then those of us from the real world will collapse the moment we step into this world, right? We humans are actually material bodies composed of countless basic particles. The air we breathe and the various chemical reactions in our bodies are all based on the basic particle worldview. If this world is really composed of elements as the underlying worldview, then we will collapse and decompose the first time we step into this world, instead of being able to speak freely now."

Another scientist said quickly: "So, this world was not composed of elements from the beginning. Its underlying structure is still basic particles. From the three videos provided by the advance team, especially the third video, it can be clearly shown that this world was originally similar to or even exactly the same as our real world. Otherwise, many technologies in the video cannot be achieved. Everything is the same as in reality, but then unknown horrible changes occurred, and everything was changed." Zuo Zongpeng thought for a while and said: "Write a detailed report on the changes in this world and submit it to the Science and Technology Coordination Committee before leaving this world. The changes here are probably very important, especially whether the change from the material world to the elemental world will lead to this horrible doomsday scene in front of us."

Several scientists nodded. This was their job. At this time, one of the scientists said, "Just now, the master mentioned the problem of why there was no direct collapse after our arrival. We did not collapse directly. This proves that the underlying structure of this world is still centered on basic matter, but there are also changes. With our arrival, the weirdness of the second layer has become more and more intense. This may be the stimulation that we material bodies have brought to the elemental world. Fortunately, thanks to Mr. Wu Xianxiao's hard work, we are able to remain safe and sound."

Zuo Zongpeng's face was twitching slightly. He said grimly, "Yes, Mr. Wu Xianxiao's activeness allows us to sit here and do research easily."

The other scientists looked at each other, and the scientist who had just spoken continued: "But in addition to the monster on the second floor...we are worried that the elements will also change."

Zuo Zongpeng was stunned for a moment and said, "Elements... have changed?"

Many scientists nodded and said, "Yes."

"If this world really has transformed from a basic material worldview to an elemental worldview, then where do these elements come from? And if light elements, dark elements, and other elements fill the underlying structure of this world, then it means that the elements of this world may have some life-like entities, just like the worlds with elements in the dream world, and our arrival..."

As several scientists were talking, a dark area in the distance suddenly began to boil, and then something like an arm suddenly extended from the liquid-like darkness and pressed towards the gray space from afar.

It's just that there was a strong light source in the middle of the gray space. As the dark limb pressed over, its dark essence was gradually dissolved by the illumination of this strong light source. Amid everyone's exclamations, this huge dark limb became smaller and smaller, and completely disappeared when it was 500 meters away from everyone. This made everyone involuntarily breathe a sigh of relief.

However, everyone noticed that the darkness around them was surging faster and faster, and the liquid-like darkness was becoming more and more condensed, as if it was changing from liquid to solid.

Zuo Zongpeng stared blankly at the darkness in the distance. He then looked at the scientists and asked, "Besides elements? In your research, besides elements, is there anything else that we need to be vigilant about?"

Several scientists swallowed their saliva at the same time. They naturally saw the change in darkness just now, and their faces turned pale with fear.

After a while, a scientist said, "Apart from the elements... the most noteworthy thing is the giant star god created by the original civilization of this world. If we are not mistaken, we are now in a finger bone of this giant god."

"Wait a moment!"

Zuo Zongpeng stood up and said, "Don't tell me, do you think this giant star god will be resurrected to fight us?!"

The scientists looked at each other and shook their heads. One of them said, "Of course this is impossible. We checked the space we are in and watched three videos. There is no doubt that only the remains of this giant god are left, and most of the remains have been digested. From the upright finger bones, we can see that nine-tenths of its volume has been digested. So it is impossible for this giant god to resurrect and fight us."

Zuo Zongpeng breathed a sigh of relief. He sat down again and said, "Well, so what? What do you want to explain?"

Several scientists were silent for a while before one of them whispered, "What we are wondering is... what on earth digested this giant god, even digesting nine-tenths of its remains?"

Zuo Zongpeng's face turned from normal to pale, and then from pale to pale blue.

"You...you crow's mouth!!"

After a few seconds, everyone felt the entire earth tremble.
