The Path Toward Heaven

Jing Jiu understood why General Li came here by himself.

Seeing these pictures with your own eyes and seeing them in the materials are two completely different feelings. The former is more real and more real.

He continued to walk forward, and the sound of footsteps and commentary sounded again in the quiet and empty passage.

One of the two officers is very familiar with the base and the outside environment, and the other is a researcher who has more information about the Sea of ​​Dark Matters.

Until now, the institute can only conduct indirect observations and calculations. Through analysis, it can be seen that the black dust and powder are still the substances of our world, but they have been transformed by some force from the particle level. The laws of physics are chaotic in the state of ultrafine particles, and now we can only summarize some laws.

The existence of dark matter is still based on the calculation of mathematical tools. It cannot be captured, let alone collected. What can be determined now is that there is no rest mass.

The so-called infiltration is not an invasion of the nervous system, nor is it a transformation, it is incomprehensible.

The ancient civilization quickly judged that this kind of infection is irreversible, so they can only choose to isolate.

If you want to prevent the invasion of the sea of ​​dark things, the key is to cut off the source, that is, smooth out those dimensional space cracks. Now the alliance's supercomputing core has been able to realize real-time monitoring of some star fields. In these areas, it is basically a race against time. However, those space cracks are produced quietly, and sometimes they will still infiltrate certain planets.

The ratio of the number of colonized planets and ore stars in this galaxy is very low. According to the frequency of infection phenomena, it can be judged that the sea of ​​​​dark matter... is wider than imagined in the early years, and may even surround the galaxy.

...

...

The two officers stopped in front of another floor-to-ceiling window and said, Outside is the core area of ​​that city.

Jing Jiu and Huaxi looked out the window, but they didn't see any high-rise buildings, they could only see black forests and bushes.

On the other side of the black forest, some streets can be vaguely seen. There are many cracks in the streets, and black smoke is faintly rising from inside.

A gust of wind came from nowhere, and the black smoke was blown away, but it did not disappear into the air, and went in all directions.

The black treetops sprinkled countless particles, and the weeds on both sides of the street floated slowly, as if they were about to come alive, but they were so lifeless.

The particles in the smoke were those spore-like things that the spacecraft had seen after entering the atmosphere.

The professors of the Institute determined that those black spores should be cells impregnated with dark matter.

All infested creatures on this planet are dead, at least those on the surface.

Those spores are dead and cannot continue to infect other things, but they are still very scary to watch.

That's right, the sea of ​​dark matter infects all life forms, or more precisely, organic life.

If there is no living body on a planet, even if the sea of ​​dark matter swallows it, it will not bring any changes.

Moreover, without the existence of living bodies, the expansion speed of the sea of ​​dark matter will also slow down, which is far less than the speed at which galaxies move away from each other.

In other words, the sea of ​​dark matter can only affect the space of this galaxy at most, and cannot bring any threat to the vast universe.

Just like a nail, it is actually impossible to destroy the empire on the other side of the grassland.

The problem is that human beings are not the universe itself, but life itself.

Where the sea of ​​dark matter passes, the sea of ​​stars becomes an abyss, life ends, and the world becomes hell.

The number of extraterritorial celestial demons who invaded the Stargate base back then was actually not many, but they caused such heavy losses because of these reasons.

The city outside the window is the first hell.

On the other side of the black smoke, the city was isolated in an invisible barrier, maintaining the appearance of hundreds of thousands of years ago.

The ancient civilization is much more developed than the current Galaxy Alliance, but the ideas are similar.

Obviously, the rulers at the time also wanted to keep this hell as a laboratory for researching countermeasures and finding ways to eliminate the sea of ​​dark matter.

...

...

There are many corpses on the streets, in the buildings, and in those space transmission passages.

Dead locust trees, dead roses, dead cockroaches, dead mice, dead dogs, dead cats, dead human.

It is unimaginable how advanced the ancient civilization was, and it was able to preserve this ugly world so perfectly.

The energy of the protective shield can last for tens of thousands of years. The alliance has only improved in many aspects through the research on this protective shield. The current protective shields of the new warships, including many planetary-level protections, all come from this. Of course, we still can't achieve this level.

An officer called out the light curtain to Jing Jiu, clicked on a tiny black dot on the screen, and said, Infected life forms will lose all sanity, but will retain the level of intelligence before death. According to the information we have collected on ancient civilizations and the suggestions of modern scientists, we will divide these life forces into five categories.

The small black spot quickly enlarged on the light curtain, and turned into a small gray-black branch. It was unknown what kind of life it was.

This is an insect called a stick insect. It can have almost unlimited life after being infiltrated, just like other life forms. But it does not pose any threat to us. It is just that within half a minute after being killed, the spores released have the ability to continue infecting. The officer thought that Jing Jiu didn't understand this, and patiently explained in detail: Completely destroying the form can kill these things, but try not to use this method on the battlefield.

Jing Jiu didn't speak.

The officer continued: The monsters that insects become after being infiltrated are called mesoscales, the infiltrated animals are called half-tails, the plants are called ashwood, and the microbes are more troublesome. They have a strange name called blood thumb. As for the infiltrated humans... they are called generations.

...

...

The black dots on the light curtain are enlarged one by one, revealing their shapes.

Those are the legendary Sea of ​​Dark Things monsters.

Even if it is given some ancient names by ancient civilizations and scientists, it is still a monster. Although they are tall and straight trees in the snow before they are dyed, they are flowers gently swaying in the wind, insects singing on summer nights, cats on people’s laps, dogs under their feet, and people.

Comparing with the various monsters that appeared in sequence, detailed three-dimensional anatomical diagrams and detailed text descriptions appeared on the light curtain, which were the research results accumulated by the two civilizations, which were very detailed. Including those monsters' travel speed, attack style, weakness and the fastest, simple, effective and economical way to destroy them.

Some of those monsters are just a speck of dust, some are like a wild beast, and some are like zombies in movie games.

Jing Jiu was a little familiar with the images of these monsters, just like he encountered those extraterrestrial demons after his ascension.

The monsters on the snowfield of Chaotian Continent are obviously replicas, or imitations, of these monsters, except that one is black and the other is white.

It's just that that god is not omnipotent, and the Snow Country monsters are obviously not as terrifying as these monsters, and the most important thing is that they don't have the ability to infect them again.

After all, there is a difference between low temperature and severe cold and absolute silence.

Jing Jiu looked at the city outside the window, his eyes became brighter and sharper, and he saw many corpses of Blood Thumb, but he still couldn't see the sea of ​​dark things itself.

At this moment, he thought of the mosquitoes in Zhenmo Prison, Han Chan, and Xue Ji for the first time.

...

...

The circular base covers a large area, so large that there is a mountain in the middle. Compared with the strange mountains on the planet's equator, the height of this mountain is very inconspicuous, but near the North Pole, it is the highest mountain, so high that you can see the whole panorama of the city.

Jing Jiu stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the distant city in silence, the sun shining on his face, it was not as charming as usual, probably because the emotion between his eyebrows and eyes was a little weak.

The sound of the zither sounded, and Shen Yunbu stepped forward and landed beside him.

What weapons did the ancient civilizations use at that time? Jing Jiu asked.

That kind of weapon can kill all monsters and even all life on the surface at the same time in a very short period of time, and it can also close the cracks in the dimensional space. Of course, it is not easy.

The current Galaxy Alliance, whether it is a neutron bomb or a super-cluster electromagnetic bomb, cannot do this.

It is said to be some kind of sub-stellar weapon. There is no clue in the information found by the Academy of Sciences.

Shen Yunbu looked at the city in the dim light, and said, It's a pity that no matter how advanced a civilization is, it will eventually enter the grave.

Jing Jiu said, Go and see.

He flew up from the edge of the cliff, turned into a sword light, passed through the protective cover of the ring base, and headed towards the distant city.

An alarm sounded in the circular base, followed by countless exclamations.

No one can be sure of safety.

What if he was infected by those dark breaths?
