The portable grandfathers that appear are all problematic.

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.

In the end, magic was unleashed from the 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?

Chapter 178 Your tractor is drifting, fishtailing, and making sharp turns?

Xue's Law actually still believes that the parallel world can be saved.

No matter what, there's always a parallel universe version of himself there—a Xue Law who didn't get a cheat code but became a doctor.

Without the cheat code, without the old ghost leading him into the realm of the extraordinary, without the great sage providing a complete roadmap for his future, and without all the travelers he encountered afterward…

Despite losing this ability, Xue still followed his childhood dream and became a disaster doctor, as well as a graduate student at Boston University.

Unfortunately, he went astray in that place and got involved with this weird stuff called occultism.

Once you get involved with that stuff, there's basically no hope. It's like the irreversible effects of getting powder on a person. But for someone who has never experienced the supernatural in their life, getting involved with this kind of "pseudo-supernatural" mysticism is countless times more addictive than flour.

Looking at those extremely abstract mystics, you can tell what kind of person will become after getting involved with this stuff.

The world consciousness seemed to know Xue's idea, but it neither agreed nor disagreed, instead adopting a tacit acceptance of the general attitude.

Perhaps the principles explained by Xue's Law made Him feel that it would be good to make the last use of that parallel world that was about to be destroyed, as Xue's Law's experience in dealing with the ancient tree.

Regarding Xue's Law, let's try to save as many people as we can.

If he hadn't seen it, he might not have been so bothered, but now that he has, he can't help but want to go.

I want to go out and play, whether by stealing keys or climbing over walls.

Perhaps sensing Xue's determination, the world consciousness stopped interfering. After all, this was under His nose, and He could provide support and pull him back to the main world at any time should any problems arise.

The department head's leave request has been approved.

Xue Luding looked at the hesitant director, knowing that the director was probably annoyed with him. He had been absent for most of the month, and the death of someone in another department had also become a problem for Xue Luding.

Thinking of this, he could only sigh and say in a complicated tone, "Be down-to-earth and study hard."

“Uh…” Xue Dinglu responded, unsure of what to do.

He can't exactly say he took leave to save the world. Although he can't bear the responsibility of "saving the world" most of the time, at least he's saving other civilizations and humans like them.

According to the Star Squadron, fragments of the King are scattered throughout the universe, so all intelligent beings in the world will eventually converge in evolution towards the King. Therefore, although they are not from the same world, they will all eventually be "human-like", that is, similar to the King.

Could it be that Zigela is also a fragment of the King?

No, or rather, does the Blue Star itself actually contain fragments of the King?

Xue Lude made these wild guesses in his mind, because he had had this idea for a long time, especially after going to more worlds.

In most worlds, the upper limit is near-Tier 5, meaning Tier 4 is the maximum, and no matter how much you increase the quantity, it's impossible to reach Tier 5.

Just like that incredibly powerful and prosperous super Iron Curtain, their technology level is capable of mass-producing Tier 4 artifacts, but their strongest magical demons can only reach near Tier 5.

So far, the only Tier 5 enemies he has encountered are Zeus, Shub, the Evil Eye, and Zijera.

In the Holy Magic Continent, even ordinary people in that world only have a limit of quasi-4th rank. In the Beast World, the limit of humans is also less than 4th rank. Only beasts can surpass 4th rank, but even the Super Beast King is stuck at quasi-5th rank.

However, in the fairy tale world, level 4 humans are not uncommon, which can be seen as the essence of the fairy tale world as a fantasy world being higher than that of the world of giant beasts and the super iron curtain.

Looking at it this way, Zeus and Zigela are both products of Earth, while the Evil Eye itself is a newly born consciousness from the fragments of the King, and the Shub insectoids are a cosmic catastrophe.

In other words, if worlds have levels, then Blue Star's level must be higher than all the worlds he had visited before, even higher than the Evil Eye.

If so many Tier 5 gods can emerge from this absolutely magic-free place, what about the main gods of other civilizations before the Age of Gods disappeared? Could they also be Tier 5?

So, where did all the Tier 5 beings on Earth go? Why is it possible to mass-produce Tier 5 beings on Earth?

Xue Dinglu had many such questions in his mind, but he buried them deep in his heart for the time being.

"Um, sorry." Xue Dinglu, who was thinking with his head down, almost bumped into someone walking in front of him, and he quickly apologized.

She was a bespectacled girl in a white coat; Xue Daoli didn't know if she was a senior student or a young teacher at the school.

However, most of the young teachers at USTC can probably be called "senior sisters" because they are all teachers who pursued their doctorates at USTC.

For some reason, he suddenly felt that the senior student looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.

Have you seen it before?
