Chapter 177 The Mysterious Matching Mechanism of the Abstract Region

Xue's Law finally understood why, when he asked the World Consciousness, its reply was, "It's hopeless, just wait to die, farewell."

In subsequent observations, the reckless mystics discovered that the dead could be resurrected using Zijera's magic and properties, which they named "Shinki Reincarnation".

Even more outrageous is the idea of ​​directly transferring false memories to the resurrected remains of Zijra, thus creating a fake "living dead" that is completely under your control.

This wasn't the most despairing thing for Xue's law. What was even more despairing was that the US military discovered Chijera here. They even started to seize Chijera. After realizing that Chijera was beyond their control, they used the famous Free Minuteman M161 missile, carrying a high-explosive incendiary charge with a yield of 10,000 tons, to blow up Chijera.

As if nothing ever happened, the mystics are all dead, and the US military can't guarantee they'll control Zijra, so they'll just wipe Zijra out of control as well.

However, Zigera is essentially a giant ancient fungus. Although it outwardly resembles an enormous, twisted "ancient tree," it is in essence an aggregate of woody fungi.

Therefore, the spores of Zigera, once dispersed, began to spread throughout the Amis water cycle and, via the Earth's water cycle system, to the entire world...

……

Xue Law: "..."

Fungal spores infect the world, and then all living things can be turned into "vegetative state" beings by the fungus...

Next comes the apocalypse in America, followed by the untold story of a psychopath named Joel and a golden golf club, right?

Xue Dinglu couldn't even find a way to complain; he even had thoughts that were on par with the world's consciousness at this moment.

There's no hope. Just wait to die. Goodbye.

When you are tired, destroy it quickly.

When it comes to courting death, Xue's Law feels that this group of mystics and the US military are going head-to-head in the same direction, it's really...

A group of people, disregarding everything, dared to summon unknown things at will, and directly began conducting human experiments and resurrecting the dead—an abstract, underworld entity that would make even Orochimaru from Konoha Village blush with shame.

Another group of people were like madmen, shouting "Ah ah ah ah ah" and saying abstract things like "If I can't have it, I'll destroy it" and "I'll burn you to death." They didn't even know that Zijra was actually an ancient fungus, and they just went ahead and used Free Minutemen missiles to attack without any regard for the facts.

Xue Law: "..."

As expected of the abstract matching mechanism of the America region.

None of them are human.

Xue Daolu suddenly felt that the girls' band in the literature club was actually quite good. Compared to this group of abstract Amei, after all, they were only abstract because their lead singer had problems, while Amei was practically an Arkham Asylum.

It's so unlucky that my parallel self is studying there.

What's even more unfortunate is that my parallel world self has also stepped into the realm of mysticism and is about to become a member of the abstract world.

"Are there mystics in my world?" Xue Luding suddenly asked in a somewhat frightened manner.

According to the definition of mysticism, extraordinary effects can be achieved by using the reflection of divine rituals without the need for magic. So it seems that mystics can still use their spells in their own world.

"The vulnerability has been fixed," the world consciousness said.

That's good. So parallel worlds have another function: to set traps for the main world.

When Xue Lude was lucid, he looked at the sky before dawn and suddenly felt that it was good that there were no demons in this world. There would be no crazy people suddenly doing crazy things, crying out "It hurts, it hurts so much!" and then trying to destroy the world.

Zeus was like that in the past, and even though magic is banned in that parallel world now, mystics are still creating all sorts of crazy things to do.

Xue's Law is beyond words.

It's 4:30 in the morning, I still have some time, I'll go back to sleep for a bit.

Xue was thinking this, but suddenly, he saw more of Austin's memories again.

He did not die, but was fortunate enough to survive the barrage of missiles from the Free Minutemen. However, his body had begun to be irreversibly infected by fungi, with leaves and branches growing from his body, covered with twisted mycelium.

From his perspective, starting in the town of Salem, people all over the world are infected, and those infected become "fungal zombies."

In the final moments of his life, he saw the mystic who had organized the town of Salem. Now, he was no longer the old, frail man with white hair he once was; he was a spirited young man.

Austin was shocked; he couldn't believe that the person opposite him, who had also been infected with the fungus, had turned out this way.

"I've finally succeeded! Do you see? This is the true revival of the mysticism, the revival of the Age of Gods!" He laughed wildly at the old mystic.

"The power of the sacred tree has granted me immortality, truly, eternally! It's done! This is the truth behind the mysterious revival, the magic of the Age of Gods. Obtaining it comes at a price."

In the final moments of his life, the old mystic realized that he and his companions had been tricked, that someone had used their greed for the Age of Gods and magic to set up a trap in which they were destined to fall.

It's even possible that he leaked the information to the US military.

And finally, magic was unleashed from that occult elder, tearing him to pieces… Xue Law: “…”

Why did he suddenly feel that it was expected?

No matter what kind of trouble these mystics cause, Xue's Law will never be speechless, because it's just too classic.

abstract.

Looking at Austin, who was desperately improving the magic of light in his consciousness space, he completely forgot about the town of Salem, and forgot about the fungal infection of Zijella and the whole world.

All he knew was that he was still desperately pursuing magic, and that as long as he could learn magic and truly feel its power, even death would be worth it.

Xue Law: "..."

He then got up and slowly looked in the direction of the school.

In this light, that parallel world is probably finished. Austin's amnesia is usually seen in people who have been dead for a long time.

Perhaps that parallel world is already in 2030, with fungal spores already spread all over the world, plus the crazy mystics stirring things up behind the scenes.

No wonder the world consciousness so resolutely declared that there was no hope...

According to the setting there, the fungal spores infect the whole world, and then there will probably be a zombie siege. Zijella's vitality can even revive countless corpses and infect other plants and animals.

Furthermore, in the even more massive ocean, if Zijella's spores could grow in the sea, then we could take our hands off the keyboard and declare GG.

"Is there also that ancient fungal spore plant underground in Salem, America, in our world?" Xue asked.

【Have】

Xue Law: "..."

However, it is completely sealed, and no other creature can break my seal. I will also clean it up periodically.

That's good. So how exactly are these fungal spores produced?
Fungi with plant-like characteristics are somewhat like the oldest eukaryotic bacteria from billions of years ago, when there was no division of plants, animals, or fungi, and a large number of bacteria had cell walls and chloroplasts.

It can photosynthesize like a plant, prey on other plants like an animal, and decompose corpses like a fungus.

For creatures of that era, any method was acceptable as long as they could obtain energy, whether it was photosynthesis or predation.

Zigela clearly possesses characteristics of animals, plants, and fungi, making it extremely difficult to deal with.

"Can I find a way to destroy that Qijiela first?" Xue Dinglu asked, "with my current strength."

【Can't do it】

"Even the Star-Burning World-Destroying Cannon can't do that?" Xue Luding asked in shock. In his opinion, the ancient tree in Austin's memory could even be blown up by the US Free Minuteman missile, so there was no reason why the near-5th tier Star-Burning World-Destroying Cannon couldn't do it.
The fact that the world consciousness did not respond to Xue's Law made Xue's Law realize that things might not be as simple as he had imagined.

Is the Zijera not a native species of Earth?

Such thoughts involuntarily popped into his mind and grew stronger and stronger.

I will periodically throw Him into other worlds; you don't need to consider it for now, we'll talk about it later.

Xue Luding frowned immediately. He believed that the Tian Ting's Star-Burning World-Destroying Cannon could even wash the entire American continent, so why couldn't such a powerful attack eliminate Qi Jiela?

No matter how powerful it is, it's just a primitive plant from the ancient past, right? Why would it have five tiers? Isn't that Zeus's tier?
Does this mean that Earth is also stronger the older it is, so the prokaryotic bacteria from more than 3 billion years ago were all as powerful as gods?
Xue's mind raced with these thoughts, like a train churning around.

His thoughts were racing. Looking at the gloomy sky, he suddenly felt a sense of urgency regarding the many hidden secrets of this world.

Sure enough, Earth is not entirely peaceful; otherwise, the world's consciousness would not have gone to such great lengths to give Xue the Law a cheat code and nurture him little by little.

"Forget it, don't think too much about it. What's done is done. Let's eat first," Xue Dinglu said.

……

He rode his bicycle to school and submitted another seven-day leave request.

The last time he went to the fairy tale world, he didn't ask for leave. Although he only went for two days, Xue Dinglu essentially missed the entire Friday's classes, including Saturday's evening self-study.

It sounds strange, but their school does have evening self-study sessions. It's just that these sessions aren't mandatory, but students who perform well during them get extra points on their final exams, which is expected to be around 5 points.

Although he had never been there.

"I think I should go and visit that ancient tree, just to gain some experience. That way, when we really need to completely clear out that ancient tree underground in Boston, I'll have some experience to draw upon," Xue Daolu discussed with the World Consciousness.

He can't just leave that other world to its fate, can he? What if there's hope?
