Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 486 Night God's House
"I'll take you to see my house."

Ye Shen continued to move forward, passing the black and red twin towers, and there was another gem device not far ahead.

It's just much smaller, completely embedded in the Kreip rock, in a pit, and can't be seen without close observation.

“This is where I woke up.”

Ye Shen pointed to the pit, where there was a transparent ceiling made of gem cells and a small space underneath.

The things suspended inside looked like two eyeballs, they were also made of gemstones, with a line connecting them.

The surface of the Gem Eye contained pupils made of fibers, divided into black and red. These pupils were still slowly expanding and contracting, like a living thing.

Ye Shen looked down and said, "Do you know this?"

Zhou Yi had seen something similar.

In Tietie's memory, she was once sent by a celestial being to a chained shelf, where there were two gem eyes, selecting and scanning every life placed on the chain.

But the two gem eyes were green pupils, inlaid with emeralds. And they were very huge.

The one in front of me is a pair of black and red pupils, and there are many of them, as if many eyes were fixed on it.

Zhou Yi said, "It should be some kind of tool or life used for observation. I heard about it from a human being who was used as an experiment by a celestial being."

A hint of surprise appeared on Ye Shen's face: "There are actually people who survived the hands of Tianren?"

"some."

Zhou Yi said, "From what I know, some celestial beings, at least towards what they consider to be lower life forms, are quite tolerant. However, I'm not sure if this is an isolated phenomenon or a common practice."

The other party sighed: "You understand the celestial beings much more than I expected."

Zhou Yi brought the topic back: "What is this?"

"This is my body."

Ye Shen looked at the pair of eyeballs made of gem cells in the transparent container: "I woke up here. But I don't know where I came from or what I'm going to do. It seems that I don't need to do anything to live forever. I have spent many years here. If I do nothing, time actually passes very quickly..."

"Then I walked up there and saw the Twin Towers, and it suddenly dawned on me that I was connected to them. Either I was there to guard the Twin Towers, or they were there to guard me."

"Later, I went to Earth. There, I learned that the place where I was born was called the Moon. I was a life born on the Moon, but I was different from creatures bred by nature. On Earth, I learned a lot by reading the knowledge of the old humans."

"The lunar surface has a very thick layer. Normally, a thickness of 50 kilometers is enough to block any external impact, and then there is the 1000-kilometer lunar mantle. The deeper the area, the stronger the pressure of matter and consciousness will be, so this distance is a forbidden zone that life cannot cross."

She stepped on the Krip rocks with her embroidered shoes and said, "They are very solid. The deeper you go, the stronger they are."

"This is 1000 kilometers underground."

"So I feel safe staying on Earth for a long time, because it's too desolate here and I'd be bored alone. Earth is bustling. Whether it's war, death, festivals, births, harvests, or disasters, there are always large numbers of people celebrating."

As Ye Shen spoke, he seemed to become happier.

"But when I returned to the moon, I suddenly discovered that there was life on the surface here. Those moon beasts were digging holes everywhere, and they were getting deeper and deeper... Among them, there were even light cores being born, and they were already very close to this place."

"If they continue like this, they will eventually dig to the deepest part of the world and enter here. Then my immobile body will be destroyed. Only then will I realize that my mission in life is to ensure that this place remains as it is."

At this point, she sighed again, "I am the Great Holy Spirit here, and the Moon Beasts' consciousness is also a part of me. If I try to deal with them, it would be like self-harm. I told you before that I would be weakened by the punishment of the Great Holy Spirit, and that's exactly what I meant."

"Only by leaving here and going to Earth can I function as the Night God's self-consciousness, which is the pure part of me. And as soon as I return here, I will be the Great Holy Spirit of the Moon, like a prisoner chained here."

Zhou Yi listened silently.

The Moon Beasts to Ye Shen are like cancer cells to patients. Her method is to try to induce them to kill each other and drive the Destroyers crazy, so they are called "Dead Apostles" by the Moon Beasts.

"The first time I saw you, I felt an inexplicable feeling about you. You were very similar to me... Did you have similar experiences as me? Are you also a created life?"

Ye Shen suddenly asked.

Zhou Yi said: "I don't have the same experience as you. I am a human being." However, the other party sincerely told his true experience and showed him his most secret home.

Zhou Yi also said frankly: "I am an old human who survived the impact of the circular current. In addition to developing the wasteland, I am also looking for the reasons why the old human civilization was destroyed."

"Old humans?!"

Ye Shen was stunned for a moment, and immediately looked around him and said, "No wonder you are very familiar with the knowledge of the old humans... You can survive the impact of the circular current. It stands to reason that the light core body cannot survive. The circular current explosion is pure consciousness destruction and energy transformation."

"I understand!"

The other party's eyes suddenly lit up: "You are a humanoid weapon created by the old humans with the power of civilization! You fight for the old humans, right? I said, we are the same kind!"

Ye Shen waved his small fan with a smug expression that I knew it.

Zhou Yi: “…”

Although this conclusion is far from the truth.

But this saves a lot of trouble.

Zhou Yi changed the subject: "Jupiter uses celestial beings as parts, and the moon has the same. I wonder if the Earth, as a fixed connection point, also has them?"

He had a feeling.

Maybe there's something beneath the Earth, too.

"do not know."

After Ye Shen confirmed that Zhou Yi and she were of the same kind, her attitude became noticeably more intimate, without the previous sense of distance and fake smile of business cooperation.

She suggested, “How about we form a partnership?”

Zhou Yi asked: "How?"

"Help me deal with the moon beasts here. Make sure they don't stay here. Assist me with the care and cleanup on the moon. Then, I'll help you keep an eye on Tianren Daixing's every move and the situation on the consciousness side."

Zhou Yi said: "I also want the moon."

"what?"

The other party was stunned: "No, no, this is my home."

"do not mean that."

Zhou Yi explained, "Because the moon is a celestial body that the celestial beings cannot approach, it is a death threat to them, just like Jupiter. So I want to develop the moon as an important strategic weapon to deal with the celestial beings."

"How can we develop this? It's not possible here at my home anyway."

The other party waved his hand.

"I still do not know yet."

Zhou Yi said: "But let's put it this way first. When the conditions are ripe, I would like to try this."

"Don't you want to know your origins? The gods should know best."

"Of course, for now, we're mainly doing exploration and collecting amber and various mineral resources here. These won't go below the mantle. We can discuss specific development later. How about that?"

Ye Shen thought for a long time and finally agreed: "In that case, I have one condition. Give me some electric cats, A-level ones, at least two. It will be much more convenient to have them to do things."

"make a deal."

Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party.
