Let them show their loyalty!

"More evil?" Qiu Tu chewed on these words, then raised his head and asked, "Why are they evil?"

Jackal did not answer the question directly, but looked up at Qiu Tu and asked, "My lord, do you know about "technological explosiveism"? "

Hearing Jackal's words, Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Technological explosiveism, also known as "effective additive doctrine", is a loose organization composed of a group of crazy politicians and scientists.

They believe that if they want to save humanity, they must explore and discover new technological singularities, and then detonate the new technology at all costs to start the next reincarnation.

The reason why this is a "loose organization" is because this organization does not have strict superiors and subordinates and an organizational structure, but is more like a political line or political tendency.

The reason why Qiu Tu knew this was because the Lin family was a member of this loose organization back then.

It was also their radical research on the "Double Catastrophe Path" and "Butterfly Gu" that led to a series of subsequent events. (Chapter 577)

Now that he heard Jackal asking about this organization, Qiu Tu suddenly had a suspicion in his mind.

He nodded and replied in the affirmative, "I know this organization."

"But..." At this point, Qiu Tu changed his tone and asked, "You mean, there are also members of this organization in the 3rd shelter?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Jackal first shook his head, and then nodded.

He corrected with a sneer, "Lord, the 3rd Sanctuary does not have members of this organization. Rather, this organization originated from the 3rd Sanctuary."

He thought for a while and roughly guessed that Qiu Tu knew the origin of "technological explosiveism". So, he added another sentence,

"I remember that the head of the Lin family in the 7th shelter visited the 3rd shelter and was deeply affected by their political leanings."

Hearing Jackal's words, Qiu Tu's face suddenly showed a hint of surprise. It feels like a lot of things are going well.

He nodded, then stretched out his hand to signal the jackal to continue.

Jackal moved his knees forward, adjusted to a more comfortable kneeling position, and then continued, "The reason why Sanctuary 3 is the origin of "technological explosiveism" is because their situation is quite special. "

"After all, they are one of the earliest shelters established by humans. Back then, there was a lot of pressure to face evil gods and catastrophic creatures, so many of their methods were more radical, and the competition was also relatively intense."

"For example, their political system. Although their parliament holds the highest power, they have many factions."

"If I remember correctly, there are more than twenty factions in one of their sanctuaries, and these more than twenty factions will compete for the 36 seats in the parliament every five years." (Chapter 458)

"Only the faction that occupies the most seats in the new parliament can form a new government and become the new ruler of Sanctuary."

"This means that all their factions must strive to evolve, iterate, and develop. Only in this way will they not be eliminated."

"In the past few years, they have changed their ruling factions seven or eight times. Things like "Mechanical Faction", "True God Faction", "Fusion Faction" and "Lawful Faction" have been rotated one after another. "

"Because they have so many factions, generally speaking, no matter which faction is in power, the other twenty or so factions can discover new and explosive new technologies in those five years."

"After that, the strength of that faction will rapidly increase, quickly occupying an absolute advantage in the sanctuary, and then successfully take over in the next five years."

Having said this, Jackal paused and commented, "To a certain extent, they have indeed practiced the line of "technological explosiveism." "

Qiu Tu:

Just listening to Jackal's words, Qiu Tu felt that this third shelter was a little crazy. This makes Qiu Tu, who likes order and stability, slightly uncomfortable.

Therefore, he asked, "Introduce the factions that have been in power in Sanctuary 3?"

"For example, what are the "Mechanical Faction", "True God Faction", "Fusion Faction" and "Lawful Faction"? "

The jackal nodded.

He said, “The ‘Mechanical Faction’ is actually the earliest faction to emerge in Sanctuary 3. "

"Because, this faction was founded by some scientists from the National Weapons Research Institute and Arsenal before the Cataclysm Era."

"They believe that even in the era of catastrophe, human beings' greatest advantage over catastrophic creatures is still science and machinery."

"Give up your own strengths, learn the power of catastrophe, and then fight against those catastrophic creatures that can use the power of catastrophe. In fact, you are using your shortcomings to gain your strengths."

"So, relying on the legacy of the old era and relying on the 3rd Sanctuary to establish the cornerstone of the arsenal, they began to study the integration of the power of catastrophe and mechanical products."

"This allowed them to develop advanced mechanical weapons such as unmanned ships, hive drones, mechanical wolves, etc. at the beginning of the Catastrophic Era."

"After that, their ambitions grew bigger and bigger, and they set goals to excavate and open up all the arsenals and industrial facilities before the destruction of the world. They would rebuild the human industrial system and form an endless mechanical army to fight against evil gods and catastrophic creatures."

Qiu Tu frowned slightly after hearing what the jackal said.

As a human being in two lifetimes, what Qiu Tu realized the most is: the general trend of history is difficult to change by human power. The wheels of history roll forward and will crush everything that attempts to stand in its way.

If you sit on the wind outlet, the pigs will take off. And once you go against the trend of the times, you are destined to be eliminated.

Sure enough, there was a trace of ridicule on the jackal's face. He said, “In the beginning, when the concentration of catastrophic power in the real world was relatively low, the ‘Mechanical Faction’ did lead the Third Sanctuary to a period of golden development. "

"However, later on, when the concentration of catastrophic power in the real world became higher and higher, and the levels of catastrophic creatures became higher and higher, and there were even 3rd, 4th, and even 5th level catastrophic creatures, the "Mechanical Faction" was completely unable to withstand it. . "

"After all, no matter how strong the mechanical army is, they can't enter the "Boundless Heart Sea". It is also impossible to capture the elusive catastrophic creatures. "

"The turning point of everything was actually a joke made by a powerful evil god in the "core area". "

Having said this, Jackal paused, then looked up at Qiu Tu and asked, "Does the Lord know about the book "Brave New World" and related events?"

Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment when he heard the title "Brave New World".

He recalled it and vaguely remembered that Yudie (Qin Shuman) told him the story of this book when he was still in New Territories City.

It seems that this book was popular in major shelters more than ten or twenty years ago. Many people committed suicide or died strangely after reading this book. As a result, a terrifying cataclysmic creature was born in the "Boundless Sea of ​​Hearts - Edge Area".

That terrifying cataclysmic creature has a special ability. It can directly affect reality by causing disasters in the "boundless sea of ​​​​mind". As a result, six or seven cities in the Third Sanctuary were destroyed one after another. (Chapter 81)

The Third Sanctuary also spent a huge price to get rid of this catastrophic creature.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but look at Jackal, nodded, and affirmed, "I know about that incident."

Seeing this, Jackal did not talk about the whole story anymore, but directly explained, "At that time, the restrictions in the "Boundless Heart Sea-Core Area" were still relatively high, and evil gods higher than level 5 could not come." "marginal area". "

"But the rapid development of technology and machinery in the 3rd Sanctuary was really interesting, so a powerful evil god wrote this book and threw it into the 3rd Sanctuary."

"I want to use human thoughts and distractions to breed a peak level 4 or even level 5 cataclysmic creature directly in the "edge area", causing trouble for the third shelter. "

"Unexpectedly, it actually succeeded."

"Because that fifth-level cataclysmic creature only moves in the "Boundless Heart Sea", the "Mechanical Sect's" mechanical wolves, unmanned airships, and hive drones are of no use at all. They can only be beaten unilaterally. "

"So, under the attack of that cataclysmic creature, the entire No. 3 Sanctuary suffered heavy losses. In the end, it was only through the desperate efforts of experts and the assistance of the No. 2 Sanctuary that we got through this."

"After that, the "Mechanical Faction" was impeached and stepped down. It became a small faction, declined, and completely withdrew from the core power stage of the 3rd Sanctuary. "

Hearing this, Qiu Tu nodded slightly.

The jackal thought for a while and gave the "Mechanical Faction" a fair evaluation, "Of course, even so. The "Mechanical Faction" still made a lot of contributions to the human camp. "

"Like nuclear weapons, there are also various weapons, such as light individual mortars, shoulder-fired light howitzers, P12 rapid-fire machine guns, etc. They have re-researched, manufactured and provided them to major shelters." (323) chapter)

Hearing this, Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but pay respect to the "Mechanical Sect" in his heart.

He felt that this was the same sentiment that Su Wanqing told him about the "ancestors of the Kou family":

The decline of a family is probably not due to anything wrong. But the world doesn't need them anymore

The Mechanics didn't actually do anything wrong, it's just that times have changed.

Thinking like this, Qiu Tu asked again, "What about the True God Sect?" "

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Jackal bared his teeth and said with a smile, "My lord, the 'True God Sect' is even more interesting. "

"The "True God Faction" is the faction that took power in Sanctuary 3 after the events of "Brave New World". "

"They were inspired by the events of Brave New World. They believed that the Age of Cataclysm was a spiritual "apocalypse." The spirit can change the material world and even give birth to catastrophic creatures. "

"Then, human beings can also gather their faith, and with the thoughts of all mankind, faith will give birth to a powerful human god."

"In this way, wouldn't that powerful human god be able to protect humans themselves?"

"So, they began to study various methods to unite their spirit and faith, and called on all the residents of Sanctuary 3 to unite the god they named "Wa Huang". "

"For the sake of pure belief, the "True God Sect" regards "Huang Wa" as the only true god in the world. "

Having said this, Jackal paused for a moment and started talking about an off-topic topic, "So, we gods who are opposite to "Emperor Wa" are evil gods. "

"This is also the origin of the name of our evil god."

Qiu Tu frowned slightly when he heard this. He said, "This one should also have failed, right?"

The jackal bared his two rows of sharp teeth and said with a smile, "Of course."

"If it were so easy to create a god, then the powerful evil god wouldn't have written a book specifically to create catastrophic creatures."

"And even if the "Emperor Wa" is really born, it may not be a good thing for human beings. After all, even if "Emperor Wa" is born, it doesn't mean that humans can control him. "

"If he betrays us, humanity will suffer a devastating blow."

Qiu Tu nodded slightly, feeling that it made sense.

Immediately afterwards, Jackal told Qiu Tu in detail about the "Integration Faction", "Agriculture Faction", "Destruction Faction" and other major factions. They all have their own quirks.

Overall, the entire Asylum 3 is like a concentration camp for lunatics.

Human diversity flourishes in it. All kinds of experiments, research, and technological explosions are endless.

And because of the Third Sanctuary, which changes every five years, more than 20 factions compete for 36 parliamentary seats, and all kinds of bloody events occur. That's why in the eyes of evil gods like jackals, the third shelter is more evil than them.

Don’t even talk about them. After listening to Jackal's story, Qiu Tu felt that the third shelter was a bit abstract.

This also reminded him of Yanyan.

He remembered that Yanyan also seemed to have studied abroad in Sanctuary 3. (Chapter 228)

Qiu Tu remembered that the intelligence at that time showed that Yanyan went to the third shelter [Agricultural University] for further study. What I studied was the cultivation and hybridization of animals and plants.

Hmm. Inexplicably, Qiu Tu felt that Yanyan's contrasting and weird behavior seemed reasonable.

There is even a more reasonable reason for Yanyan to help him bring women back every day: Could it be that the girl is doing her job and trying her best to help Qiu Tu breed and cross her?

After chatting about the major factions and history of Sanctuary 3, the two finally talked about the current ruling faction of Sanctuary 3, the "Lawful Faction" where Shen Lingshuang's father belonged.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but when they talked about "lawful system", Qiu Tu obviously felt that the jackal's expression became more solemn.

The jackal knelt on the ground, then raised his head, his eyes full of seriousness, and said, "My lord."

"I actually have a bad impression of Sanctuary 3. The main reason is their current ruling faction, the "Lawful Faction." "

He said, “The ‘Lawful Faction’ is a major faction that has existed since the creation of Sanctuary 3. And the strength has always been ranked in the top 3. "

"In these years, the "lawful system" has been developing peacefully. No matter which faction came to power, they were all drawn to each other, which allowed their power to expand rapidly. "

"Among the seven level 6 cataclysms in the 3rd Sanctuary, three are in their faction."

"And we suspect that there are still level 7 cataclysmic creatures in the "lawful system". "

Hearing this, Qiu Tu nodded slightly: He was actually not surprised that there were level 7 catastrophes in the third shelter.

After all, the two major thresholds for catastrophes are actually "catastrophic awakening" and "fourth level". The former may die after taking the medicine, while the latter is a "disaster of yellow charm".

After passing level 4, although every subsequent step is difficult, it is not so dangerous.

In addition, the people who hit level 4 back then were all the proud ones of heaven. Therefore, even if the "catastrophic path" is relatively average, there is still a chance of grinding one or two level 7s through water milling over the years.

However, just as Qiu Tu was thinking this, Jackal suddenly repeated, "My lord, I'm not talking about level 7 catastrophic beings, but level 7 catastrophic creatures."

Hearing the jackal's repetition, Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but look up at the jackal.

The jackal grinned, revealing his two rows of sharp teeth.

He said, "You may not know. In fact, your political line of "using evil gods to control evil gods" was not the first to propose it. "

"At first, a small faction proposed the idea of ​​Sanctuary 3. Later, that small faction was swallowed up by the "Lawful Faction". "

"After that, the "lawful system" seemed to have been tinkering with some weird things. "

"For example, their deputy speaker Shen Yuzhou. There is something wrong with his daughter."

Qiu Tu was startled when he heard what the jackal said. He didn't show it on the outside, but he was wary on the inside.

He looked at the jackal and asked, "What's wrong?"

After saying that, he kept paying close attention to the changes in Jackal's expression, trying to see if Jackal was mentioning Shen Yuzhou on purpose.

The jackal seemed to be talking about this exactly. He said hesitantly, "I can't tell you exactly."

"But, Lord, you know. I am a dog. I have a good nose and senses."

"I just feel like Shen Yuzhou's daughter seems to have changed into a different person over the years."

Qiu Tu keenly captured the jackal's words. He frowned slightly and asked, "Did you change someone?"

He glanced at the jackal's 72-point loyalty again, and then asked tentatively, "Are you sure it wasn't her soul that was separated that caused the breath to change?"

Hearing this, Jackal quickly shook his head, "Definitely not. She just changed. And she has a strong "evil god smell" about her. "

"It's just that I don't know what the "lawful" people did to that girl. What replaced her again. "

"Maybe it's some kind of terrible experiment on the human body or soul?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu's face finally became serious and could not hide it.

He still remembered when Zhao Ji examined Shen Lingshuang. It is said that Shen Lingshuang's soul is not complete, only one soul and one soul. (Chapter 467)

After that, Zhao Ji speculated that Shen Lingshuang's body was likely to be some kind of special catastrophic path, which required splitting the soul to remove the "impurities" in his soul; or he had encountered some kind of big change and his spirit was stimulated (Chapter 468)

Now it seems likely to be the latter.

Combined with the information revealed by the jackal. Qiu Tu couldn't help but have a very terrible guess in his mind.

In order to strengthen their own strength, the "lawful system" was so crazy and radical that they cultivated evil gods to devour humans. Or use humans to give birth to evil gods.

Afterwards, through some means, they controlled the cultivated evil gods, replaced the original human identities, and fought for them.

And Shen Lingshuang was probably a "sacrifice" chosen.

But due to some coincidences, Shen Lingshuang's soul was not completely devoured, but floated to the 8th shelter. Finally, under the influence of the "flower of the earth vein", it was resurrected as a half-baked pharmacist with only incomplete memories.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu's hands clenched tightly, feeling that he might be close to the truth.

At the same time. Sanctuary 3. Parliament Building.

As the highest authority in Sanctuary 3, this parliament building is like a silent giant beast, entrenched in the center of the city.

The entire building's exterior wall is made of cold black marble. Every stone seems to have been tempered in the dark purgatory for thousands of years, revealing a piercing chill.

On the top floor of this black parliament building, in a black room, an old man was talking to a middle-aged man.

The old man had white hair and beard, a stern face, and a frown that was as deep as a ravine on his face. His long face looked a little serious.

He said slowly, "According to you, Qiu Tu is taking the same path as us, "using evil gods to control evil gods"? "

The middle-aged man responded with a solemn look.

He looked close to 40 years old, and his facial features vaguely resembled Shen Lingshuang, which made him look elegant and handsome even though he was invaded by the years.

If Qiu Tu was here, he would recognize him at a glance as the vice-chairman of the Supreme Council of the 3rd Sanctuary, that is, Shen Lingshuang's father Shen Yuzhou.

And in the entire 3rd Sanctuary, the only one who could speak to him as a superior was obviously the chairman of the Supreme Council of the 3rd Sanctuary, the head of the "Order System": Xing Su.

After hearing what Xing Su said, Shen Yuzhou nodded slightly, then shook his head, "Qiu Tu's political line is indeed similar to ours, but it is not the same."

"He is not like us, using certain means to control the evil god. Instead, he uses "emotion" or "personal charm."

"Hehe." Xing Su sneered twice and commented, "Emotion is the most unreliable and the easiest to deteriorate."

"Once the two sides have a conflict and there is nothing to check and balance, they may lose everything."

Shen Yuzhou nodded slightly, then said seriously, "That's it."

"Moreover, it is only maintained by emotion. In fact, the two sides are just a cooperative relationship."

"Once the other party turns against us, the whole situation may immediately deteriorate."

"So, I plan to take Lingshuang to the "Northwest Region" again. Meet Qiu Tu and see his quality."

Speaking of this, Shen Yuzhou paused, and then said, "It just so happens that today the 7th Shelter sent a request for help to the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Shelters. I hope our three shelters can lend him a hand."

"Shelter No. 5 refused, but the "Iron Ladies Army" of Shelter No. 4 was very interested in Qiu Tu."

"After all, their long-time opponents, Nine-Headed Lion and Jackal, were killed and captured alive. They are also very curious about what Qiu Tu, who ended their two opponents, is like."

"Plus, Shelter No. 2 is also a little interested in Qiu Tu and asked us to judge Qiu Tu's potential."

"See if there is any value in connecting to the "core area."

"So, I plan to take Lingshuang and the "Iron Ladies Army" to the "Northwest Region" to meet the famous Qiu Tu."

Hearing Shen Yuzhou's words, Xing Su was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, and slowly gave his answer, "Yes. "

Shen Yuzhou smiled after getting Xing Su's approval, and then he was ready to get up and leave.

As a result, at this moment, Xing Su called him again.

"Yuzhou."

Shen Yuzhou stopped and looked at Xing Su.

Xing Su said in an old voice, "Lingshuang's strength has improved so much during this period. Can it still be controlled?"

Hearing Xing Su's words, Shen Yuzhou smiled, "Dad, don't worry. Everything is under control."

Speaking of this, he raised his hand, showing a jade ring on his thumb, and said, "Don't you still have it here? "

Hearing Shen Yuzhou's words, Xing Su nodded slightly, then waved his hand.

After leaving the Speaker's office, a girl who looked exactly like Shen Lingshuang was waiting at the door.

However, the girl was obviously not as well-behaved as Shen Lingshuang. She wore a black belly-exposing top, a black leather jacket on the outside, hot pants, fishnet stockings and black shoes under her smooth belly.

Coupled with her casually blowing bubble gum, she looked like a bohemian spirited girl on the street.

Seeing Shen Yuzhou coming out, the girl's eyes stayed on Shen Yuzhou's jade ring for a second and called out, "Dad."

Then, she looked up at Shen Yuzhou again and casually called out, "Old Deng. Are you done? Let's go."

Seeing the girl's dress, Shen Yuzhou's face darkened slightly, and he shouted, "How many times have I told you that you have to be conscious of the Speaker's daughter when you are outside. "

"What are you wearing! "

The girl turned her head away and said disdainfully, "Who wants to be the daughter of the speaker?"

Shen Yuzhou:

Shen Yuzhou took a deep breath, then turned the jade ring on his thumb and said in a deep voice, "Stop talking nonsense. Pack up, we are going to the "Northwest Region". "

The girl's face was immediately full of displeasure when she heard it, "Go to the "Northwest Region" again? Didn't we just go there last year?"

Shen Yuzhou looked at her expressionlessly and said, "This time it's an important matter."

After saying that, he paused and said softly, "Shen Lingshuang seems to be alive"

Hearing Shen Yuzhou's words, the girl's pupils shrank slightly, and then a wicked smile appeared on her face.

"Interesting, interesting."

At the same time. Northwest Region. No. 7 Shelter, Fengqizhou, State Capital.

Qiu Tu was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed, thinking while giving orders to Guan Xiao.

"Let Lariluo send Shen Lingshuang to the "East City Region" to Zhaoji."

"During this period, let her not leave Zhaoji. Just say. Practice for her."

"Then. Let the jackal leave, let him unify the evil gods around the 7th Sanctuary, and then block the passage between the 7th Sanctuary and the "Boundless Heart Sea-Core Area." "

"Notify Princess Xi and Tang Feifei. Ask them to speed up the progress."

At this point, Qiu Tu opened his eyes and said with a gleam in his eyes, "I hope to see the 7th Sanctuary taken down tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"
