Indescribable cyberpunk

The white light around him dissipated, and the first thing that caught Zhu Jue's eyes was the dark blue ball of light in the distance.

It is not suspended in the sea. Even from a distance, Zhu Jue can still vaguely see that there seems to be an undersea mountain range standing under the light ball, and the light ball is at the peak of the mountain range, like the brightest orb on the crown. It is a lighthouse in the deep sea.

Suddenly aware of eyes falling on him, Zhu Jue turned around suddenly, and the five tentacles with five orange eyes were staring at him.

Subconsciously, he stepped back a distance. Although he had only seen it before, the state of his spiritual body was still vague and weak.

What appeared in front of Zhu Jue at this time was undoubtedly the true entity of the ancient one.

More than two meters high, the body resembles a wrinkled barrel suspended in the sea water. The wide and tough membrane wings on both sides are constantly beating. Several tentacles extending from the middle of the barrel are swaying around the Zhujue spirit body, as if It's to check his status.

"Were you the one who saved me just now?"

Suppressing the discomfort in his mind, Zhu Jue recalled the monster he faced a few seconds ago. Its figure had long disappeared from his perception, and he tried to communicate with the ancient one through his thoughts.

"Star Spawn. It shouldn't be around here."

The ancient man's response quickly sounded in Zhu Jue's mind.

"Star Familia?"

Zhu Jue had never heard of this name, but as soon as it appeared and mentioned in his mind, he felt that the sea water around him suddenly became a bit deeper.

"They should be sleeping in the stone house of R'lyeh, waiting under the protection of the spell for the right time for the stars and this planet to appear. I don't know why it suddenly appeared here. The unknown existence shows no sign of waking up. The war between us and them ended millions of years ago. It was you who attracted it to appear!"

Not only was Zhu Jue surprised by what happened before, but even the ancient man's mood was a bit unstable. The existence mentioned in his words made the surrounding environment more and more depressing.

Even if it was just a short discussion, it still seemed to touch a taboo. Even Zhu Jue, who was in the spiritual state, could feel the oppressive feeling coming from the sea water around him.

"Will it follow?"

In order to ensure that he would not fall into horrific and bizarre fantasies before completing his goal, Zhu Jue had to speak out and forcibly interrupt the ancient man's words.

God knows what would happen if you lost consciousness in a place like this.

"No, it is just an ordinary individual in the family. It is not strong enough to track the white space. Follow me."

The ancient man didn't seem to want to get too entangled on this topic. He simply responded and took Zhu Jue closer to the location of the light ball.

As the distance got closer, Zhu Jue, who had always focused on the ball of light, quickly discovered that it was not the lighting lamp he imagined, but a ball of protoplasmic meat with a diameter of tens of meters. Judging from the appearance alone, It is said that it is like a cell ball, and the light that can illuminate thousands of square meters of the seabed is released from its body.

"Is this your city?"

Zhu Jue asked as he noticed that the outline of a building with carving marks began to appear on the seabed in front of him.

This is a real underwater city!

"Yes, this is a settlement we have just opened. We do not trust you and cannot go to our most primitive city."

The ancients obviously didn't know what "courtesy" meant.

"What's that glowing thing?"

"Relying on the light source produced by biotechnology, because this is a place to live in the deep sea, we need lighting. It can self-power by swallowing organisms in the seawater and continuously release light."

The Ancient One did not deliberately hide anything from Zhu Jue. Of course, it may be that this information does not need to be concealed at all in its opinion.

It continues to sink and eventually falls to the bottom of the sea.

The ancient one is not affected by buoyancy at all. It was floating and elegant a second ago, and it looks exactly like it is on land after landing. The tentacles at the bottom slide among the sand and rocks on the seabed. Zhu Jue maintains a floating posture, following Start looking at this underwater city beside it.

The imaginary high-tech city was only limited to imagination after all. Perhaps because it had just been developed, the first impression of this city on Zhu Jue was that it was rough.

Previously, because he was floating in the upper water, he looked down from a bird's eye view and didn't think it was anything. But after entering the city, Zhu Jue found that the height and width of most of the buildings here were quite exaggerated. Perhaps it was because of this. The special proportion will give Zhu Jue the illusion of space.

Of course, rough doesn't mean primitive.

Naturally, it is impossible for ancient people with extremely high civilization to really live the life of primitive people. After only walking for about ten minutes, Zhu Jue saw many strange things.

For example, in a market at a street corner, nothing seemed strange from a distance. When Zhu Jue got closer, he discovered that the stalls here were actually made up of a group of crustacean creatures similar to those he had seen before. When he and Zhu Jue As the ancient man approached, these crustacean creatures suddenly dispersed and swarmed over here. Before Zhu Jue could understand what was going on, he discovered that there was a "cube" under the ancient man's feet that was also made up of crustacean creatures, carrying it. Forward.

This kind of thing is actually a bit like Zhu Jue's own scavenger, except that the scavenger only obeys Zhu Jue's orders, while the crustacean creatures here tend to be shared items.

Before walking too far, many ancient beings suddenly emerged from the houses on one side of the street. Most of their tentacles were wrapped with fish or shrimps, and their bodies were swaying, as if they had just come out of a tavern. The middle-aged uncle, Zhu Jue, turned to look at the building they came out of. There seemed to be black hieroglyphs carved with some kind of tool on the top.

While Zhu Jue was observing these ancient beings, they soon noticed Zhu Jue's existence. It must be said that this feeling was quite strange to the latter.

You must know that in the world where Zhu Jue lives, if a living ancient being who can communicate with humans appeared, I am afraid it would have attracted the attention of the whole world. After all, monsters that can communicate with humans as a source of spiritual pollution have only been eliminated until now. You can count them on your fingers, let alone this ancient intelligent race.

However, in this underwater city, Zhu Jue has become a rare existence. It is not a good thing to be watched by a group of ancients. An ordinary person would probably have fallen into complete madness at this time. Even Zhu Jue, at this time I feel a little uncomfortable, but I can still rely on my strong will to suppress the chaotic thoughts.

Fortunately, the ancient man who had brought Zhu Jue over stood up at this time and uttered a few short and rapid syllables through the vocal organ that was not known where. The ancient men surrounding Zhu Jue immediately turned around and left as if they had received an order. In the blink of an eye, Disappearing into the buildings on both sides of the street.

Perhaps because of this warning, there were no more onlookers during the rest of the journey, until Zhu Jue was taken into a building in the center of the undersea city, where ancient people who had received the news in advance were waiting.

In the center of the room, there was a very strange-looking object, which was mixed together with a large number of metal pipes of unknown material, geometric rune blocks engraved with mysterious mantras, and some shiny things that Zhu Jue couldn't tell what they were. The shape is somewhat like a helmet, but the specifications are obviously not suitable for Zhu Jue's head device.

"What's this?"

Zhu Jue had a vague premonition that what was going to happen next should be the key to his arrival here, and he couldn't help but look at the ancient man beside him and asked.

"Pre-experiment testing, the transfer of equipment and items requires the use of white space. This is a technology that spans time and space. Even we need to pay a certain price. We must confirm that you have the value of the experiment. Stand at the bottom of the device, we have to Test you immediately!”

As the ancients said before, there is no helping relationship in this cooperation. There is only a relationship between the experimental subject and the researcher. It is a fact that Zhu Jue volunteered to become an experimental subject, and the ancients who are researchers are also willing. Resources are consumed to conduct this experiment.

But the premise is that Zhu Jue is qualified to become an experimental subject!

"It is impossible for a weak living body of Gadamon's body to withstand it. You are very special. You may be able to succeed. This needs to be tested!"

The voice that appeared in Zhu Jue's mind this time was obviously different from the ancients summoned by the previous two contact spells. The tone was jerky. It was probably the other ancients in the room trying to communicate with Zhu Jue.

At this point, it was naturally impossible for Zhu Jue to refuse the testing requirements of the ancients, so he could only stand at the bottom of the device.

However, while Zhu Jue acted according to the ancient one's request, he was also secretly mentally prepared to take action immediately if the situation was even slightly wrong.

Even if he completely turns against the ancients, he still has to leave here. The effect of the Nine Turns Golden Pill will disappear soon, and his soul will return to his body by then.

Zhu Jue clearly knew what kind of existence he was facing. He had seen the great race completely destroying a bandit gang at every turn. He did not think that these extremely rational ancient intelligent races would have sympathy for ordinary life.

After all.

The ancients wanted to test Zhujue, but why did Zhujue believe them wholeheartedly?

If it weren't for breaking the shackles of the body, only lunatics and cultists would be willing to deal with this kind of guy!

No matter what, the test finally started. The runes on the large helmet-like device lit up one after another. Zhu Jue's spirit body clearly felt that there was some kind of special energy flowing through it, and the faint wind blew in his ears. The pipes made a "whoosh~" sound and the red-hot iron block made a "beep~" sound when it was put into cold water, and then the shimmering shiny object on the device began to flicker.

Somehow, Zhu Jue, who saw this scene, could not help but think of the picture of data push on the computer screen. These numerous bright objects were like data streams that were constantly flashing, giving out information that only the ancients could Understand the message.

The whole process didn't last long. After about 3 minutes, Zhu Jue found that the flashing speed of the light began to slow down until it completely stopped, and then returned to the state when it was not started.

"Your soul is extremely special. Even we have never encountered this phenomenon!"

The ancients were squirming, their huge and bloated bodies swaying from side to side, as if they were discussing among each other.

"So do I pass or fail?"

Zhu Jue didn't understand its meaning.

"We look forward to the next experiments!"

As straightforward as ever.
