Nightmare Immortal Era

Chapter 98: Neural Invasion Technology and Black Ice Ants

"The brain of a living organism emits signals through electromagnetic waves to give commands, and all kinds of thoughts and inspirations also come from the electrical signal activities of the brain!"

"So, by precisely introducing electromagnetic waves into the human brain, we can interfere with their thoughts. Not only can we make them believe that their ideas are self-generated, but we can also inject emotions, knowledge, and subconsciousness."

"This is called electromagnetic wave invasion of neural technology, abbreviated as neural invasion technology."

This research was established upon the discovery of uranium mines, and within about ten days, significant progress has already been made.

This is the advantage of having superpowers and supercomputing capabilities. Yang Ning can not only manipulate electronics but also perceive the movement of electrons within living organisms.

In the course of human activities, billions of biological signals may be generated in an instant, but as long as the computing power is large enough, they can all be captured and analyzed.

On Earth, electromagnetic waves do not obediently listen to scientists.

The ability to engage in close combat so quickly is also thanks to the establishment of the Cloud Mist Information Matrix, which allows Yang Ning to observe millions of objects. If he only studied his own brain, it would take a long time.

"Technology is truly a miraculous thing!" Yang Ning looked at the millions of densely packed brainwave activities in front of him and felt a bit dizzy.

There is a fundamental difference between technology and cultivation. Cultivation is like filling a water tank, a step-by-step process. It takes as many years as it takes to reach the next realm. There may be differences between geniuses and mediocrities, but not too much.

But technology can truly explode. It may lay the foundation for a thousand or ten thousand years, but as long as a genius has a flash of inspiration, they can complete the progress of tens of thousands of years in three to five decades and develop to an unimaginable level.

Yang Ning has just laid the foundation, standing on the shoulders of the giant Earth, and it has already begun to explode.

"Now can we control people?" Yang Ning asked.

"Yes, but controlling humans requires a tremendous amount of electromagnetic wave energy and requires mobilizing the Cloud Mist Information Matrix on a large scale!" Deep Blue said. "And it can only control mortals with a physical body at the Eighth Layer or below. You can also use Thunder Law to disguise, which has a similar effect to illusion techniques!"

Once a person reaches the Ninth Layer, they begin to cultivate spiritual power, and it becomes difficult to influence them with natural electrical currents.

Yang Ning shook his head, "I can do it, but the Cloud Mist Information Matrix can't!"

The primary purpose of the Cloud Mist Information Matrix is infiltration, and its second task is communication. Other tasks such as espionage and assisting scientific research are secondary.

There are situations where large-scale mobilization is not possible, such as during rainy weather.

If they were to do it on a clear day, they would definitely be discovered by water-based cultivators.

Yang Ning thought for a moment, "Don't limit it to humans. Can we control fish?"

The biggest problem encountered in mining uranium is that the Three-Word Sword Sect likes to fish there.

If there are no fish there, would they still go?

"The density of cloud mist water droplets required to control fish needs to be even greater!" Deep Blue said. "Seawater is a good conductor of electricity, and energy loss will be high. Once cloud mist water droplets enter the ocean, their controllability will rapidly weaken!"

After all, how can the power of water droplets compare to the vast ocean?

Yang Ning asked, "With the current density of the Cloud Mist Information Matrix, what can we control?"

"Ants!"

"Ants?!" Yang Ning was taken aback, then nodded, "Ants are not bad."

Ants may seem insignificant, but there are so many of them!

He immediately mobilized the cloud mist water droplets near the Three-Word Sword Sect to search for ants. Within a few seconds, he found a nest of ants.

"Black Ice Marching Ants, a type of ant exclusive to Yingzhou. Villagers in the Southern Sea and Extreme Eternal South Forest areas have also discovered them, indicating a trend of biological invasion!" Deep Blue immediately brought up a few pictures.

Yang Ning was stunned for a moment, then brought up a planet similar to Google Earth.

On this planet, there were a total of nine continents, but they only occupied one-third of the total area of the planet, with the remaining two-thirds being blue oceans.

This is Extreme Eternal World, which is called a realm, but in reality, it is a huge planet.

On this planet, whether on the continents or in the oceans, there are places where faint lights flicker.

"It seems that in another 10 days, the entire area will be covered, and in 12 days, the density will reach the highest monitoring standard!"

Yang Ning sprinkled droplets of cloud and mist on his way to the gate of Extreme Eternal Sect. Some of them spread and diffused in place, while others drifted in the direction of the wind.

Extreme Eternal World is also a planet. Although it is large in size, it only takes a short time to go around with the wind. Now there are already droplets of cloud and mist on various continents, and they have begun to transmit information back.

However, due to the limitations of quantity and density, the transmitted information is very fragmented.

Even in such fragmented information, several images of the Black Ice Marching Ants can be found, indicating that this creature is indeed invading!

"These ants are omnivorous insects. They not only eat grass, roots, stems, and fruits, but also prey on insects and mosquitoes. Moreover, the formic acid secreted by the Black Ice Marching Ants has strong corrosiveness and can destroy molecular structures, causing soil desertification!" Deep Blue said, "The barrenness of Yingzhou is closely related to the Black Ice Marching Ants!"

"Where did this information come from?" Yang Ning asked.

"It was a task issued by the outer sect of Extreme Eternal Sect: investigate the reasons for the continuous large-scale reduction in agricultural production in South Forest!" Deep Blue said.

"I didn't expect Extreme Eternal to be involved in this!" Yang Ning was somewhat surprised. He thought that the people of Extreme Eternal were really burying themselves in cultivating and not caring about anything else!

However, Extreme Eternal is different from other sects. Extreme Eternal Sect needs luck for cultivation, and a country can have more luck if it is prosperous and strong.

Therefore, the attitude of Extreme Eternal cultivators towards the common people under their command is relatively good. He discovered this when he was in Yue Kingdom. Yue Kingdom was actually consciously suppressing land consolidation.

Mobile phones have already become popular among inner disciples. After all, compared with the functions of mobile phones, identity jade tokens are useless. Who likes to carry a bag of identity jade tokens when going out?

And after discovering various software inside that can gain fans and increase luck, the enthusiasm of inner disciples to promote mobile phones is even higher than that of artifact refining masters.

It's just limited by daily production. Otherwise, every outer disciple would have one by now.

Yang Ning flipped through this task and looked at the investigation log.

The executors were Yun Qingying, Wang Lianhu, and Mu Tianluo, a team of three.

The conclusion of the investigation was that the Black Ice Marching Ants were rampant, not only damaging the roots of crops, but also damaging the fields, causing good fields to become poor, and they also ate earthworms and bees.

The investigation was conducted four months ago. It is estimated that Extreme Eternal already has countermeasures. They wouldn't just let it go.

"Let's focus on our own affairs!" Yang Ning didn't think about helping. Such a large sect couldn't possibly be unable to deal with mere ants.

For him, the Three-Word Sword Sect is still more important.

Yang Ning immediately investigated the situation of ants on the entire island.

Wherever the Black Ice Marching Ants go, there is no living space for other ants. Therefore, there is only this type of ant on Hongye Island, but the number is quite large.

On the 16-kilometer island, there are a total of 644 Black Ice Ant nests. By observing the brainwaves of the ants, it is determined that there are a total of 130 million ants. This number fluctuates, but overall, it has been stable.

There are also natural enemies of the Black Ice Marching Ants on the island, the Red-Backed Immortal Armadillos, a total of 16, belonging to five families.

Yang Ning immediately looked up information and found relevant explanations in alchemy materials.

Armadillos are just ordinary wild beasts, but the Red-Backed Immortal Armadillos are special. The red back is a material born from absorbing a special spiritual energy, and this material is the main ingredient for refining the "Red Pregnancy Pill".

Cultivators have strong vitality, but pregnancy is difficult. The "Red Pregnancy Pill" is important for couples who are preparing for pregnancy. However, this kind of pill has no market in Extreme Eternal because every cultivator wants to become an immortal and doesn't need a wife and children at all.

But in a place like Yingzhou, how can one become an immortal without even having a Unparalleled Divine Ability?

The goal of cultivators has instead become power struggles, enjoying life, and continuing their genes.

The reason why these 16 Red-Backed Immortal Armadillos can still survive is purely because the disciples of the Three-Word Sword Sect don't know about them on the island.

If they knew...
