Chapter 381 The Magical Infinite World

"You seem...not surprised at all?"

Seeing Zhang Qi's reaction, Zheng Zha cooperated by asking a question.

"Before being pulled in, I spent a few minutes analyzing the code of that pop-up window."

Its underlying logic is very interesting…

Zhang Qi met his gaze and explained.

"Analysis pop-up? Are you talking about that virus pop-up?"

This time, the question was asked by Zhan Lan, a busty woman with glasses, in a curious tone.

"But every program has its own coding rules."

The process named 'God.exe' does not use any computer language that we are familiar with.

Its core architecture is not based on binary logic of 0s and 1s, but rather follows an ancient Eastern philosophical system—the Five Elements and the Eight Trigrams.

Zhang Qi's gaze swept over the shocked faces of the three men, and he began to explain the concept of Qimen to Zheng Zha and the others.

This naturally comes from the worlds of armor and one person. Simply put, in the world of one person, Qimen is the method to access the Heavenly Dao.

In the world of armor, Qimen is more of a mathematical concept, a language used to describe the objective world.

The pop-up window for the main god leans more towards the latter...

Of course, he was explaining these things not so that Zheng Zha and the others could understand, but to gain the right to speak.

Upon hearing Zhang Qi's explanation, Zheng Zha and the other two exchanged bewildered glances, their faces showing identical blank expressions.

Five Elements and Eight Trigrams? Qimen Dunjia? These metaphysical terms, which they had only heard of in novels and movies, were actually connected with the strange pop-up window that dragged them into the Main God Space.

The amount of information contained in these words far exceeded their comprehension.

"So, when I woke up and found myself here, with all that information about the 'Main God Space' in my mind, I was just verifying my conjecture."

As Zhang Qi spoke, he gently raised the black wristwatch on his wrist.

"If I'm not mistaken, all our mission information and reward points will be released and settled through this, right?"

"No, buddy... who exactly are you?"

Zhang Jie finally couldn't hold back anymore, his face filled with shock.

In the God Realm, the speed at which one regains consciousness is directly linked to physical fitness.

They are highly experienced individuals, so it's only natural that they wake up quickly.

But this young man in front of them not only woke up not much later than them, but also analyzed the current situation clearly in such a short time.

This doesn't look like an ordinary person at all.

"Zhang Qi, a sophomore in the Computer Science Department."

Zhang Qi calmly revealed his identity; in this life, he was indeed a university student.

"As for Qimen Dunjia, it's a family heirloom..."

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the cold metal room, the intricate network of pipes and the flickering, faint indicator lights.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the commercial cargo ship 'Nostromo' from Alien 1, right?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Zha and the others realized that they had almost forgotten they were still in the world of a horror movie.

"The plot of this film is very simple: the Nostromo receives an unidentified signal on its return journey, and the crew lands on a planet called LV-426 to investigate."

One of the crew members was parasitized by an unidentified creature called a 'facehugger'.

Afterwards, the juvenile 'Chestbreaker' emerged from his body and quickly grew into an adult alien, launching a bloody massacre against the crew inside the enclosed spaceship.

Ultimately, only the female protagonist, Ripley, survived by initiating the ship's self-destruct sequence, boarding the escape pod, and throwing the aliens that managed to follow into space.

Seeing this, Zhang Qi began to explain the plot. The plot of this horror movie was quite simple, but there were many details.

"However, there are many noteworthy details in this movie."

For example, the company that dispatched the spaceship, Weyland-Yutani, may have known about the existence of the Xenomorphs for a long time, and may even have had a great interest in studying them.

Sending a regular spaceship to retrieve the Xenomorph is likely a cover-up... But considering that the mission issued by the main god is to fight the Xenomorph, the possibility of a third-party intervention is very small.

If it's just about dealing with the alien, based on what's shown in the movies, moderately powerful firearms should be able to inflict effective damage on it at close range..."

Upon hearing the words "firearms," ​​Zheng Zha's expression instantly became somewhat unnatural, and he scratched his head awkwardly.

There are indeed guns available for exchange in the God's Space, and they are cheaper than bloodlines and internal energy, plus he has enough reward points.

However... at the time, he was so focused on strengthening his bloodline and skills that he completely forgot about the most basic step of exchanging for regular weapons.

"Cough cough!"

Zhang Jie coughed loudly, interrupting Zheng Zha's awkward silence and drawing everyone's attention. He spoke with a stern face and the authority of a seasoned veteran:

"Don't underestimate this! This time it's a 15-player difficulty scenario!"

"This can't be solved with just a few broken guns!"

Zhang Jie's words made everyone's hearts sink again.

"If the difficulty of a horror movie is related to the number of viewers, then the ways in which the main god increases the difficulty are nothing more than a few.

The setting of Alien is a completely enclosed spaceship, where it is difficult for external factors to intervene.

Therefore, the most direct way for the main god to increase the difficulty is to start with the enemy itself.

First, improve the individual quality of the Xenomorph. For example, instead of the ordinary Xenomorph from the first generation in the movie, we are facing an enhanced variant that is faster, stronger, and has a more robust shell.

Second, increase the number of aliens.

Of course, there's also the worst-case scenario: both scenarios occurring simultaneously.

Zhang Qi's tone was flat, yet it sent chills down the spines of his listeners.

"No...no way...didn't the Supreme God issue a mission that meant certain death?"

The high school student, who hadn't said much until now, had pale lips and was trembling uncontrollably, his mind filled with the terrifying image of being engulfed by endless black monsters.

Zheng Zha and the others also looked extremely grim.

A single alien is enough to wipe out an entire well-trained crew; imagine if there were many more...

"However, the reproduction of the Xenomorphs requires a host. This excludes Ripley, the female protagonist who survived in the original story, and Ash, who, as a cyborg, cannot be parasitized."

There are five crew members on this ship who could be used as parasites.

In other words, even in the worst-case scenario, we will only face a maximum of five aliens initially.

Zhang Qi spoke upon seeing this.

"call……"

Zheng Zha let out a long breath. Although five aliens were still a despairing number, at least it was still within an acceptable range.

The way he looked at Zhang Qi completely changed, from initial scrutiny and confusion to utter approval.

"Zhang Qi, we need your wisdom."

Zheng Zha took a deep breath and solemnly extended his hand.

Zhang Qigang's performance has perfectly proven his value. In the world of horror movies where death is always a possibility, a wise person who can foresee the situation and calmly analyze it is even more important than mere brute force.

"Ah."

Zhang Qi nodded slightly and took Zheng Zha's hand.

He has basically achieved his goal.

Then, Zhang Qi stepped aside, leaving the stage to Zheng Zha and the others.

The newcomers began to wake up one after another, with screams, cries and questions rising and falling. Zheng Zha, Zhang Jie and Zhan Lan began to patiently (or rather impatiently) explain everything about the Main God Space to these poor guys.

Zhang Qi leaned against the cold metal wall and closed his eyes.

His consciousness sank into his body, and he began to try to guide the energy within his body according to the memories provided by the "selves" in the [Shared Space].

The result of the attempt was somewhat unexpected...
