King from scratch

What does it feel like to walk in the void?

He Xingwen: Thank you. Actually, it is no different from normal walking, except that there is no scenery to see, the feet are empty, and I always feel that I will fall... It is better than normal walking.

In particular, this huge net is located in the gaps in the void-filled world. As far as the eye can see, there is nothing but floating broken land, which is astonishingly desolate.

He Xingwen and He Tong walked along this ever-extending net, and soon saw what He Tong called "other gaps".

In the net woven by dense ether, there are one penetrating hole after another. The appearance of the hole is very familiar, exactly the same as what He Xingwen saw in the Zerg World.

Incomparably huge, it penetrates instantly.

"Traces of Man Xing?"

He Xingwen stopped, stopped and looked in front of him, the barrier was still extending, only looking at a part of the area, it was hard to notice that there were so many gaps in it.

The scope of this net is beyond imagination, so that the shocking penetrating gaps at close range are just insignificant small gaps to it, and it doesn't even affect its operation.

He Tong nodded, affirming his guess: "Only Man Xing can leave such a mark."

He Xingwen thought for a moment, and felt that the question should start from the beginning: "So, how did this barrier come about? God the Father set it up?"

"This barrier appeared in the fifth era, when God the Father had fallen." He Tong said: "I prefer that this is the will of the world itself, in order to protect those fragile civilizations."

He Xingwen's first reaction was, the civilization on the mainland can't be said to be fragile, right?That is a bunch of intelligent creatures that are strong enough to fight against the player...

He realized what this so-called "fragile civilization" really meant.

Although today, this barrier has become an obstacle for the civilizations of the New World to enter the continent, but the purpose of its appearance at first was to protect the civilizations at the outermost periphery of the continent.

"Is the direction of this protection reversed?" He Xingwen: "The creatures on the mainland can pass through unimpeded, but the creatures outside the mainland can't enter the mainland through the barrier?"

"There is no need for the civilization on the mainland to expand outward, because the location of the outermost civilization on the mainland is not worthy of their attention, but the civilization on the outermost edge of the mainland will definitely migrate towards the interior of the mainland, provided there are no obstacles. Because there are more resources on the mainland.”

"Once the civilizations at the outermost edge of the mainland migrate to the interior of the mainland, they will inevitably have direct conflicts with the mainland civilizations. For these fragile civilizations, this is undoubtedly a dead end."

He Xingwen was convinced.

He Tong continued: "This is the optimal solution I have analyzed based on various factors. There is a lack of more critical information, and there is a possibility of misjudgment."

He Xingwen was silent for two seconds: "The reason why this barrier appeared is not important. Anyway, it has objectively separated the mainland from the new continent at present."

"I'm even more curious about why Manxing created so many gaps in these barriers," He Xingwen: "Manxing belongs to the civilization on the mainland, and this barrier will not hinder it theoretically."

Just as He Tong was about to speak, the data from afar came back, and he turned his head to look upwards.

To be precise, this cannot be regarded as the upper part, because the sense of space in the world gap has long been lost, and "above" refers to another layer of space that is a certain distance from them.

There, there was a huge existence roaring over.

He Xingwen followed He Tong's line of sight.

At first, everything was indistinguishable from the barrenness he saw before, until He Xingwen waited patiently for a while, only to see a small black spot floating out of the barrenness.

The moment the little black dot appeared, it turned into a huge boulder in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, it became a huge existence with weird shapes.

It was approaching rapidly, and completed the transformation from a small black spot to a clear appearance at a speed beyond imagination.

As the distance shortens, its size also skyrockets, filling the space in the distance tightly, like a huge planet.

Even though there is still a long distance between them, the human beings watching it still easily feel the illusion that they are about to be crushed to death.

It is too huge, and this sense of hugeness is even increasing with the shortening of the distance.

He Xingwen was wrapped in golden light, motionless.

The huge planet whizzed past, smashed through the barrier, and disappeared after leaving a penetrating wound above it.

He Tong gestured towards the fresh wound: "Actually, Man Xing may not have done it on purpose."

He Xingwen:?

"We can easily pass through the barrier because the barrier hardly exists for us, but for Man Xing, it is there."

He Tong paused as he wanted to continue explaining, and suddenly became serious. He looked at the barrier that had just been smashed out of the gap, and stretched out his hand to pull He Xingwen behind him.

He Xingwen followed and cast his gaze, but there was still a barren place.

"He noticed us." He Tong's calculation data soared instantly: "This is not right."

The black dots appeared from a distance again, quickly closing the distance, and knocked out a second penetrating gap on the barrier.

He made a circle around He Xingwen and the others, constantly appearing and disappearing across a long distance.

[It's you,] The other party greeted He Tong [I ran too fast just now and almost missed you. 】

He Tong and Man Xing have never had contact, but to a certain extent, they are not strangers to each other.

However, contacting Man Xing is not good news, because of Man Xing's particularity, they will not pay attention to other intelligent creatures at all.

And when they suddenly start caring, that can only mean one thing, the time is up.

The mission of each Man Xing is the beginning of the "reincarnation" that has been waiting for since its birth.

He Tong: [Are you going to start reincarnation? 】

【I'm lost. 】The other party said 【I've been lost for a long time, I've been looking here for a long time, but I couldn't find the key. 】

He Tong looked at the gaps in the barrier, and suddenly understood the reason why there were so many gaps in the barrier—because of Man Xing, he lost his way...

It is difficult to accurately summarize the lifespan of Man Xing. Before reincarnation, they cannot actually be regarded as a complete intelligent creature. This state without birth can be called an embryo.

And after reincarnation...they are the world itself.

And the world can be said to be immortal, or it can be simply destroyed.

But after Man Xing completed the reincarnation, it itself surpassed the definition of an intelligent creature and became the sum of all intelligent creatures.

The world itself has a will, and of course, for a three-dimensional creature like human beings, this will can also be defined as a natural law.

But for He Tong in the high-dimensional world, the world can indeed be defined as alive.

And the time that Man Xing called "I have been looking for for a long time" must have been an unimaginably long time.

During this long period of time, the opponent continued to cross the barrier back and forth, so that there were so many gaps in the barrier, and it was crumbling.

The key to the last Manxing reincarnation was Li Wang.

Or to be precise, Li Wang who came to the end of science.

Before Li Wang reached that step, that Man Xing would never be able to find the key to open the reincarnation.

[You can look for it again. 】He Tong said indifferently.

[I want to ask him. 】Man Xing, who was constantly revolving around them, said to He Tong【He may know where the key is. 】

[He can't talk to you. ] He Tong rejected him without hesitation [You shouldn't stay here for a long time, it's too dangerous. 】

To be precise, it is too dangerous for this world.

Man Xing revolved around him for two weeks in silence before speaking again [You know us, I won't notice your existence for no reason. 】

Especially when intelligent creatures are too small for Man Xing.

For Man Xing, there is no chance or coincidence.

After He Tong's database performed intensive calculations and confirmed that the probability of the other party leaving voluntarily was extremely low and the behavior was safe, he turned to He Xingwen and said, "He wants to talk to you."

He Tong roughly explained the existence form of Xiaman Xing, and concluded: "So, he is looking for the most critical key."

He Xingwen was in a daze for a moment, looking at the gaps in this barren world, it was still a little hard to understand: "But it looks like there is nothing here."

He Tong repeated the facts: "So he lost his way."

"If he has to say it, then I suggest that he look for it in a crowded place." He Xingwen came up with an idea: "At least the probability of finding the 'key' is higher."

[A place with a lot of people? 】Man Xing's tone sounded very puzzled, but he didn't suddenly become enlightened.

But He Tong didn't care, he said ruthlessly [this is his answer, you can leave. 】

Man Xing, who smashed a gap in the barrier again, changed his running direction and disappeared in front of them.

Leaving a barrier almost smashed through.

During the short conversation just now, Man Xing kept revolving around He Xingwen and the others, so much so that countless gaps were made in the barrier in this area.

To be more precise, this small barrier has already been smashed through.

Of course, the entire barrier is still functioning, but in front of He Xingwen and the others, an empty area was smashed out...

He Xingwen brought He Tong close to the huge barrier, stared at the empty area where the barrier was originally located for a few seconds, then turned to look at He Tong.

"These gaps have formed a loophole." He Tong: "This area has failed."

Therefore, Man Xing's long stay is very dangerous.

For a creature to create a world, it must be in constant motion to avoid putting too much pressure on the world.

A smashed barrier is nothing compared to the danger brought by Man Xing's real stop.

But to Man Xing and high-dimensional creatures, it is nothing. To this world, it may turn into a protracted war at any time.

He Xingwen sighed: "When will New World notice?"

"Wait until a lucky guy from the New World crosses this gap by mistake without being blocked by anything."

"It seems that there is still a buffer period," He Xingwen muttered, "Let's go, this short trip is over, let's go back and clean up the mess."

He Tong did not move: "Actually, this is not something that requires you to rush back to the kingdom, and the kingdom itself is not suitable for participating in the troubles at the end of the continent."

He Xingwen looked at him sideways.

He Tongyi said with a straight look: "The failure of the barrier is destined to happen, and the New World and the Mainland are also destined to come into contact. After the civilization of the New World becomes stronger, this is an inevitable trend."

"All we can do is to keep the contact between the two as gentle as possible so that the situation doesn't get out of control."

He Xingwen glanced at He Tong, and extracted the main point of his long series of words: "You don't want to go back to the kingdom?"

He Tong took He Xingwen's hand and exerted a little force, the stern expression faded from his face, showing the emotional ups and downs that intelligent life does not often have.

"Although I have many reasons to explain this behavior, to prove that it is the best solution at the moment, not my personal selfishness." He Tong showed a regretful expression on his face: "But I must admit that there is indeed something wrong with it." Part of it is that I want to continue this short journey with you."

"Just me and your journey."

The commonly seen template faces of players can only produce the illusion of brilliance on people with different meanings.

Human beings are attracted by beauty, but also unable to look away because of the soul behind the skin.

He Xingwen's heart was pounding, and he couldn't remember the trivial matter of the barrier failing.

He clenched He Tong's hand, trying to do something, then remembered the previous system warning, lowered his voice, as if he was afraid that no one would hear, and said to He Tong: "Cover the view of the main console of the game."

He Tong obeyed his orders instinctively.

Then, the lips softened.

The king leaned forward forcefully.

All was quiet.

Players far away cannot be quiet.

Just now, the game system suddenly issued a large-scale mission "Infrastructure!" for all players.World Gap Transformation Project! ".

[Dear players, the gap in the world has become an obstacle to your exploration of the New World.

Go ahead, conquer them, and proclaim your might to the world.

Task requirements: transform the gap in the world.

Current progress: 0%

Mission success reward: open new continent map and hundreds of new civilization forces.

Mission failure penalty: The New World disappears from the map. 】

Players are talking about this large task.

"The essence of planning infrastructure madness is finally exposed?"

"This is starting to transform space? Is it a bit too exaggerated?"

"No, it's impossible for this mission to succeed at all, right? In the situation of the gap in the world, how can it be possible to engage in infrastructure construction?"

"Is this to build a city in space?"

"Isn't the punishment for mission failure too harsh? The New World disappeared from the map? Does this mean that this part of the map is directly deleted from the database?"

"The planner just started to be a man, and then started to go crazy again? Building infrastructure in the gaps of the world? Why doesn't he let Huaguo build a city in space?"

"This still belongs to the category of infrastructure? It belongs to the category of magic, right?"

"No, ether can't be used in the world gap, and magic can't do this."

"I just said, there must be something wrong with planning to suddenly become a human being. Is the co-authoring a big move?"

"Then take back the profession of Friend of Light, discuss it with the planner, and let's pretend nothing happened, okay?"

The players simply thought about the possibility of transforming the gaps in the world, and then came to a very pessimistic conclusion.

The planning is really crazy.

The waves caused by players because of the mission are still brewing.

The bottom of the South China Sea ushered in two unexpected guests.

After continuing this short journey, He Xingwen and the others arrived in the South China Sea after leaving the world gap.

After the Zerg invasion ended, the South China Sea was left behind by most people, and even the players' attention was diverted, leaving this sea area to slowly heal itself.

Walking under the sea is a strange feeling, especially since most of this area is still lifeless.

The top of the ocean is blue, deep and charming, but after going deep into the bottom of the ocean, the ocean loses its color.

In a depth where light cannot reach, here is darkness.

The player has not gone deep into this area. There is almost no land on the seabed in this area. He Xingwen and He Tong held hands and sank slowly in the sea.

The initial blue sea water is relaxing and comfortable. As the distance dives, the dead silence around becomes more and more striking, fishes disappear, and not even a single plant can be found in the empty sea water.

He Xingwen and He Tong continued to dive, and the darkness gradually replaced the light, becoming the main color of this area.

It is difficult for humans to see through the darkness, but the golden light around He Xingwen is enough to give him a small range of visibility.

And He Tong...the light couldn't obstruct his vision.

In the dark deep sea, some faint voices finally appeared.

He Xingwen searched for the place where the sound came from.

A huge rock came into his eye sockets, and there were thick traces of seawater erosion on the rock, and these traces became a hiding place for some kind of creature.

The little mollusk hides in its shell, looking out, waiting for the food to appear.

He Xingwen stopped his movements, distinguishing the faint vitality in the sand and rocks. He led He Tong and swam in another direction, avoiding the rock.

The deep sea is much more lively than the shallow layer.

Occasionally, He Xingwen would even see a flash of light, some kind of luminous plant or animal, attracting food in the dark.

Although there are still no large fish in the deep sea, weak vitality has re-emerged in this area.

He Xingwen and He Tong wandered around the depths of the South China Sea aimlessly, as if they were really just here for a stroll.

They did not talk and walked quietly until they encountered the remaining undersea civilization.

He Xingwen almost thought that all the intelligent creatures in the South China Sea had been parasitized by the Zerg, but it turned out that even the Zerg couldn't conquer all the civilizations in the South China Sea.

They stopped before alarming each other.

Huge shells are closed, buried deep in the deepest rocks.

He Xingwen looked at He Tong, who nodded to prove that this is indeed a surviving submarine civilization.

There are some small corals next to the shells, which seem to have just popped out, hidden in the shadow of the shells and difficult to detect.

The presence of coral attracts some other sea life, making this place far more lively than other places.

He Xingwen looked at the place for a while, then took two steps back, and led He Tong out of the area without disturbing him.

They walked in the opposite direction for a long time, went deep into the trench, and encountered the second surviving submarine civilization here.

There are some glowing spores floating in the trench, quietly attracting other creatures.

Finger-sized, transparent fish move through the trenches, carrying the spores farther afield.

He Xingwen changed direction again.

There are sporadic underwater civilizations all over the depths of this sea, building sparks in the darkness.

New life will be reborn in the ashes, not to mention that there is actually a kingdom in the South China Sea.

It did survive the Zerg invasion, though with heavy casualties.

The closer to the mainland, the lower the disaster situation in the South China Sea.

The Zerg invaded the South China Sea from the side far away from the mainland, and their control over the South China Sea gradually faded as the distance from the mainland shortened.

In the waters close to the mainland, slightly larger fish began to appear, and a new ecological environment was forming, and it was here that He Xingwen and the others encountered Shanhai Yaguo.

A deadly but still existing undersea kingdom.

Shanhaiya Country is the closest to the mainland. Its people are of various forms, but they are mainly molluscs. The two characteristics of less meat and poisonous make them occupy a special position in the biological chain of the seabed.

To He Xingwen, the people of Shanhaiyaguo look more like jellyfish...

The soft body has a certain mimicry characteristic, most of the time it is a round head with a few tentacles on top, occasionally when it gets serious, the number of tentacles will increase...

Almost all of them are poisonous.

"They really have nothing to do with Du Hailan?" He Xingwen confirmed with He Tong in a low voice.

He Tongtong said a cold joke in a serious way: "comparing the two is considered a touch of porcelain."

It is worth mentioning that He Xingwen also saw players here. They were helping Shanhaiya Kingdom to rebuild the kingdom. Of course, if you think about it with your head, you can guess that it must be because the npc of Shanhaiya Kingdom issued a mission.

He Xingwen didn't have any contact with them. After watching the current situation of this submarine civilization from a distance, he left again.

They landed in the area where the South China Sea borders the Kingdom Sea.

An extended wall here separates the two areas.

On the other side of the wall, He Xingwen could hear the lively yelling of the players... Oh, not the other side of the wall, just inside the city wall.

There was an endless stream of players, and they turned this city wall into a kind of commercial street.

Although most players were attracted by World Gap and other quests, some players did not evacuate. They stayed, no matter what the reasons were, they stayed in the South China Sea.

And not a small wave of players.

The number of players traveling to and from the South China Sea is even enough to support a prosperous commercial street.

He Xingwen thought that he might be able to understand why Shanhai Yaguo survived.

When a large group of players rushed thousands of miles to the wormhole to kill the insect mother, there was also a wave of players who searched for the seabed creatures near this sea area when the Zerg retreated from the South China Sea.

When the smoke has not cleared, bring them some help.

Although human beings are always driven by interests, at the same time, there are individuals who are not driven by interests.

He Xingwen was very moved, and then sent a task of "destroying the city wall" to all the players in this area.

【Demolish the city wall

The Zerg has been completely wiped out, and the city wall separating the two seas has completed its glorious mission. People of the kingdom, it's time to let the sea of ​​the kingdom flow into the free sea again!

Task requirements: Completely demolish the city wall, and connect the kingdom's sea area with the South China Sea.

Task success rewards: dwarf-produced weapons, a certain amount of favorability for all creatures in the South China Sea, a certain amount of favorability for the kingdom, a certain amount of reputation in the South China Sea, a certain amount of reputation in the kingdom, and a certain amount of credit points.

Punishment for mission failure: Deduct a large amount of favorability with creatures in the South China Sea, deduction of a large amount of favorability with kingdoms, deduction of a large amount of reputation in the South China Sea, deduction of a large amount of kingdom prestige, and deduction of a large amount of credit points. 】
