Luo Kai put the Blood Demon Orb into his storage ring and looked at the three people in the blood pool.
He had collected the Blood Demon Orb, so the three people were not completely dead. At the same time, their life forms were also changing.
The Nightmare Beast seemed to have obtained a life form transition, transforming from flesh and blood into a virtual life program.
Zheng Ming had awakened an ability to control metal. His independent will had formed a link with the world's will, and thus he had obtained the power granted by the world. Was this the so-called Awakened?
Finally, the black-robed man had evolved from a vampire into a creature covered in red hair. His mind was about to be devoured by the Blood Demon Orb.
Luo Kai understood the principle of evolution in this world. Humans were the spirit of all things. Because everything in this world was virtual, if the species wanted to evolve, they had to rely on humans. They either devoured the energy derived from flesh and blood, or devoured the spirit derived from the soul. Humans were the main source of food.
Humans reared pigs, horses, cows, and sheep, while the Gods reared humans. No wonder it was called a God Farm!
He looked at a mobile phone on the ground and picked it up. After pondering for a moment, he dialed the number just now. His consciousness also followed the network. This world was constructed by the spiritual network, similar to the electromagnetic network. Everyone had a unique IP address.
The phone rang once and hung up, but Luo Kai had already captured the target's location.
The master behind the vampire was obviously a parasite of the Blood Demon Orb. In order to quickly strengthen this fragile body in this world, it seemed that the only way was to rely on the Blood Demon Orb's genetic modification and the powerful Dark Energy Manipulation ability.
At present, it seemed that there were three types of supernatural forces in this world. The first was the spontaneous evolution of humans. The evolution of any individual's mind and consciousness would be detected by the world's main program and controlled. This was the so-called Awakened. The second type was the vampires and zombies. They were a bit like thieves, secretly stealing the essence of flesh and blood. The last type was the Nightmare Beast. They were innately implanted with some kind of program, and when the conditions were met, they would be activated. As the number of nodes increased, this world became bigger and bigger.
While Luo Kai was deep in thought, the Nightmare Beast gradually took shape. It was like a human's shadow that was tightly attached to the ground. It was completely incorporeal.
Although the other party did not have the common sense organs of observation, Luo Kai knew that she was also observing him. One man and one beast were using a high-level mind to sense each other.
In Luo Kai's perception, the Nightmare Beast was dark and evil, oppressive and ice-cold. Because of the distortion of the spirit force, it became an existence that existed between reality and illusion. It was a kind of data life form.
And in the Nightmare Beast's perception, Luo Kai was like a brilliant sun, divine and inviolable. This feeling was extremely familiar.
When a Nightmare Beast grew to a certain level, it would obtain a connection with the main program, allowing it to share the most important memories uploaded by other Nightmare Beasts. When she tried to search for this familiar feeling, her consciousness became muddled and she fell into chaos.
Luo Kai had already invaded her node. It was different from what he imagined. It was as if he had come to another world, a world that he didn't know if it was a dream or a real world.
In front of him was a huge mountain that stretched endlessly. He didn't know how big it was at all. The undulating mountain was densely packed with craters. Countless ghosts emitting faint fluorescent light floated on the huge mountain. And inside the mountain, there were countless humans lying in a dormant state.
Gradually, Luo Kai understood what this place was. This was not a mountain, but a huge spaceship. This was the real Desire Realm.
In the outside world, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened, and a strong wind blew.
"What's that?"
The people in the city noticed the sky one after another. The clouds there seemed to be affected by some unknown force. They kept condensing and rotating slowly, gradually turning into a huge vortex. It was as if a big hole had been opened in the sky. The hole was getting bigger and bigger, and the whole world was in danger of being exposed to the outside world.
A thunder-like sound rang out, coming from afar and approaching. In an instant, it filled the whole world. It was as if heaven and earth were resonating. Some of the more fragile program boards collapsed and disappeared without a trace. The effect that appeared in the eyes was that the earth, mountains, and rivers disappeared in large swaths, leaving behind nothingness.
"Warning, the program is in danger of collapse due to unknown intrusion."
"Warning, the reserve energy is insufficient to maintain a constant state."
"Warning, the memory of the brain has reached 90%. It will not be able to support the network."
The cold warning sound rushed into everyone's ears. They were at a loss, but at the same time, they were familiar with it.
A huge and stalwart figure emerged from the hole. He almost occupied half of the sky. The void around him was violently distorted, making it impossible to see his specific appearance. They could only see a pair of small sun-like eyes looking down at the world indifferently.
All the brilliance and color were being drawn away. Heaven and earth returned to nothingness. The world seemed to be falling apart.
But at this moment, the giant frowned. His figure gradually faded and disappeared in a short while.
The dark clouds filled the hole, and the sun shone on the earth again. Heaven and earth returned to peace. Everyone's memories were washed away as if nothing had happened.
In reality, Luo Kai exited the node. After thinking for a while, he put the Nightmare Beast in front of him into his storage ring.
The situation was completely beyond his expectations. The so-called Desire Realm was a spaceship controlled by an intelligent program. Inside the spaceship were countless humans in a state of hibernation. They were in a dream constructed by an intelligent program, constantly experiencing the cycle of life and death.
In other words, an intelligent program had formed a self-consciousness. By keeping humans in captivity and absorbing their life essence, it completed its own program upgrade or evolution!
Dreams were a very unique existence. There were roughly nine dream realms. In fact, any creature that needed to sleep would dream, including some of the lowest level birds and insects. Dreams were the manifestation of the soul spontaneously exploring the world. In a very deep state of interaction, once one died in the dream, the life in the real world would also die.
Just now, he finally succeeded in invading the main program and slightly paralyzed the main program for a moment. He did not expect that it would cause the collapse of the dream realm. Once this kind of virtual reality collapsed, the people in the dream realm would also think that it was the end of the world, and all of them would die.
This spaceship was completely a piece of land. There might be millions or tens of millions of humans in a state of hibernation. In addition, there were some symbols on this spaceship that he was very familiar with. They might come from the same world as him, or from the same timeline. Or maybe time slowed down in a state of hibernation. They had experienced countless years here.
…
Zheng Ming had a dream. This time, he was in a volcanic crater, surrounded by hot magma. His whole body was immersed in the magma. The bone-deep heat wave was constantly corroding him, and at the same time, it was constantly repairing his damaged body. This kind of pain was really indescribable.
There was only a cool feeling in the depths of his spirit. Relying on this cool feeling, he was in a daze for an unknown amount of time until the lava finally extinguished. He once again regained consciousness. When he opened his eyes and saw everything familiar around him, he said doubtfully, "Strange, could it be that the things one sees after death are the same as when one was alive?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and get to work!"
A familiar voice sounded in his ears. It was Zheng Tu on the upper bunk.
