The Lightless Sea 31

First floor: Alien creatures are highly dangerous alien monsters that have existed in the Second World since ancient times. The federal government conceals the existence of alien creatures from ordinary people. Xenomorphs come in different varieties and can be found all over land and sea. The federal government, consortiums, research institutes and other departments and institutions will conduct research on the removal and capture of xenogeneic organisms.

Secret sects are classified as illegal religious organizations by the federal government. The Second World prohibits any form of religious beliefs and religious organizations. All religious beliefs and religious organizations are considered illegal. The secret sect believes in “gods”, and they call the alien creatures the relics of the ancient gods. Secret orders carry out some secret and brutal religious activities.

The birth of the aliens is inextricably linked with alien creatures and secret sects. A special potion called “Divine Blood” can be extracted from the blood of alien creatures. After taking the potion, one can gain power far beyond that of ordinary people. People who obtain extraordinary abilities in this way are named as aliens. But the acquisition of power comes at a price. Under the erosion of the divine blood, people with different blood will gradually lose their sanity and go crazy.

1L: Damn it, boss!

2L: Is this the difference between players? Some people are still working hard to become social animals, and the boss has already obtained confidential information that is difficult for ordinary people to access.

3L: Damn, such a huge amount of information… let me take it easy.

4L:? ? ? Am I reading that right, the host’s nickname is 233? What kind of weird magic power does this number have!

5L: The world is too dangerous, I want to go back to my hometown! Howling 10,000 times a day, I want to quit the game!

Kai Xin seems to have explained a lot, but she only popularized some superficial things. Alien creatures, divine blood, cult, and alien blood are closely related to each other. If you want to introduce one of them, you must introduce other aspects together.

She mentioned the three uses of xenobiotics. She mentioned the blood of the gods, and she briefly mentioned the fields of medical and material science with vague “research”. She didn’t mention the specific form of cooperation between the federal government and the foundation research institute.

Even so, this is already quite important information for ordinary players, and they need time to digest the information.The Second World is not only a world with highly advanced technology, but also a world with mysterious and unpredictable power hidden. Most of the players who traveled there only came into contact with the highly technologically advanced side of the second world, and they did not have a clear understanding of the side that hides mysterious and unpredictable power.

It can be said that Kai Xin’s science popularization has completely opened the door to the second world for them, allowing them to have an overall understanding of the second world.

Kai Xin checked the post, and the number of replies was increasing rapidly, almost every second. Some people were too shocked and sent several question marks and exclamation points in succession.

6L: What kind of benevolent person is the host! The post next door to trade alien creatures for a fee has been upvoted for a day, and instead of trading, the poster shared the information with everyone for free!

7L: Why is the host’s nickname 233? ? ?

8L: What is the relationship between the host and the depriver No. 233? !

Other players also noticed Kuixin’s nickname, and doubts and questions were constantly being sent out. A dozen buildings in a row were filled with inquiries about the nickname.

26L: People in Huaguo should know what 233 means, right? There should be no special connection between the 233 host and the depriver No. 233. After all, the player number is random.

27L replies to 26L: It makes sense. Maybe the host used it without paying attention when he registered. Who knew that everyone would time travel later. None of us expected that we would time travel.

28L replied to 26L: Although what you said makes sense, it’s also a coincidence. Today, when I browsed the forum, I had a stress reaction to the number 233. When I saw 233, I felt nervous. When I was chatting with my good friend, she sent me a sentence 233 scared me to death.

29L replied to 28L: Actually, I too, have a psychological shadow on this number.

30L replies to 28L: Me too…

31L: Claw upstairs, you are not alone!

32L: After knowing the deeds of Depriver No. 233, 233 is almost synonymous with demons in my eyes…

The replies are refreshed too quickly.

Some players have read the information but can’t analyze it carefully. To put it bluntly, they haven’t changed their minds. They didn’t realize the significance of this information when no one reminded them. They even had the mood to discuss the number 233. to chat with.

And another wave of smarter and more far-sighted players were analyzing Kai Xin’s popular science content word by word.

They don’t pay attention to superficial things. Their attention is all shifted to the content of the first floor. Whether the 233rd floor, which conducts popular science, has anything to do with Depriver 233, is not the most important thing in their eyes.

The important thing is the information itself!

After going through the meaningless watering and chatting, a player sent out a relatively long analysis after a few minutes.

69L: First of all, I would like to thank the host for the free science popularization, but I have many doubts and speculations in my heart, so I would like to share it here to inspire others. If the host can answer my questions, I will be very grateful.

Alien creatures have existed in the second world since ancient times. How long has this been since ancient times? I have studied the myths, legends and folk culture of various countries. I know that human beings often “deify” the history of their own race. Sometimes many stories and contents in legends can find corresponding reference events and things in history. If xenobiotics have existed since ancient times, can we find some clues by consulting the historical books of the second world? The federal government has unified the world for less than a hundred years. If it is the policy of the federal government to conceal the existence of alien species from ordinary people, did ordinary people know that there are alien species in the world before the federation was established? How do they fight xenomorphs?

The poster mentioned that the federal government, consortia, and research institutes will clear and research the alien species, indicating that the combat effectiveness of the alien species should not be strong enough to defeat thermal weapons and awakened people… However, some individuals with particularly strong combat effectiveness cannot be ruled out. What surprised me is that the second world is actually conducting research on xenobiotics. What are they researching? Divine blood? Did they study anything other than divine blood?

All religious beliefs and religious activities are illegal, which shows that the federal government is suppressing the secret sect. The birth of the aliens should be closely related to the secret sect. Will the federation arrest believers and aliens? Are they studying alien creatures, are they looking for a way to crack the blood of the gods, or are they for other purposes?

I am very curious about the divine blood. What is its working principle and refining process? Can it be mass produced? What is the probability and severity of body distortion after taking it? Are there more people with different blood than awakened people? How do the two fights compare?

It can be seen that the 69L player thought deeply about the content posted by Kai Xin in just a few minutes, and his guesses were basically in the right direction, and he grasped the key points.

Kai Xin does not intend to reply to 69L, she will not reply to anyone in this post.

She has said what she should say and done what she wants to do. She made a good reminder, how the rest of the people think and guess, it has nothing to do with her.

Kai Xin can conduct popular science to a certain extent, but she won’t talk too much. If she talks too much, she is exposing herself.

With 69L taking the lead, the number of people doing analysis in the post has obviously increased.

72L: Thank you for the popular science. I also have some doubts and want to ask, secretIs the God that the Esoteric Order believes in real? Or maybe their god is just a religious symbol. In the first world we live in, the gods of all religions are fictitious. Will there be a real god ruling his believers in the second world?

73L: Damn, don’t scare me. It feels weird to engage in feudal superstition in the technological cyberpunk world.

74L: Things like time travel have happened. Is it strange that there are gods in the second world?

75L: I have been an atheist all my life. What happened recently broke my three views and my belief was shaken.

76L: Since time travelling, my worldview has been shattered and reorganized every day.

89L: Is the landlord there? Have you paid attention to the regional missions in the Jingchu area? Is the crazy cultist who killed the whole family and escaped connected with the secret sect in the second world? Is that murderer a player?

90L replied to 89L: What?

91L replied to 90L: Go online and search for news. The key words are heresy and extermination.

92L: I read the news. There are some photos circulating on the Internet. It is said that the neighbors saw their door open and went in to see it. As a result, there were corpses all over the place, and the blood was painted as religious totems. The neighbors were frightened on the spot. Call the police. The murderer killed his parents, wife, and children and ran away in the middle of the night. The surveillance camera caught him, and there was a warrant for his arrest, and a reward of 100,000 was offered.

93L: It’s simply not human…

94L: If the murderer has something to do with the secret sect in the second world, wouldn’t the players be sending food to investigate? Look at the viciousness of that murderer who killed so many people in a row, his combat effectiveness will not be low, and his spirit is almost out of order. Not everyone has awakened supernatural powers. I’ve been squatting on the forum for a day. Counting foreign players, there are less than five people who admit that they have awakened supernatural powers. Some of them may be pretending to be awakened to gain attention, or some of them may not have awakened at all. Come out and speak.

95L: It is said that all the players in Jingchu province have received task reminders. I am also from Jingchu. I advise everyone not to join in the fun. What if I lose my life playing? Gou is king.

Discussions in Kui Xin’s post were very intense, and occasionally some foreigners asked what happened in English or Japanese.

It’s a pity that Huaguo players didn’t have time to talk to them to show their international friendly spirit. A few foreigners who knew a little Chinese barely translated the content of the first floor, and then moved a post alone, which triggered another round of heated discussions among foreign players.

Kai Xin read it for a while, then exited the post and came to the homepage of the forum.

As she expected, there were several new posts on the front page analyzing her identity.

“Analyze in detail whether the science popularization host next door 233 and the depriver 233 are the same person.”

First floor: As we all know, the nickname is fixed once you enter the forum. Fill in the nickname first, and then the order of entering the forum is the player number. The order of entry is opaque, which means that the number acquisition has a certain degree of randomness.

If the science popularization host next door is Depriver No. 233, why did he also set his nickname to 233? So I think the probability that the landlord next door and the depriver 233 are the same person is very small, but it’s not completely impossible… After all, there are all kinds of coincidences in the world.

1L: Listening to what you have to say is better than listening to what you have to say.

2L: How about you put it here?

3L: What you said is equivalent to not saying… You can neither confirm that he is the No. 233 Depriver, nor completely deny that he is the No. 233 Depriver.

4L (landlord): Hey, what can I do? Unless the landlord of 233 comes out to admit or deny, otherwise we can’t rule out his suspicion.

5L replies to 4L (landlord): So what if you admit it or deny it? We still can’t be sure he’s telling the truth, it’s a dead end.

6L: I think the host next door can share such important information, and he is not a bad person. I personally think that TA (not sure if it is male or female, so I will use TA) has nothing to do with the depriver. If you don’t reply, it may be because you don’t want to expose your identity.

7L: I also tend to think that the landlord next door is not the depriver… Unless the depriver No. 233 is a performance-type personality who likes to attract attention, TA might like to see us guess and fail to guess who TA is.

“A thorough analysis of the identity of 233, the popular science host next door.”

First floor: It is clear that ordinary people have no access to information about alien creatures, and the landlord next door is not an ordinary person. According to the landlord next door, the federal government, consortia, and research institutes are responsible for matters related to alien creatures. Therefore, I boldly speculate that the identity of the landlord next door in the second world is at least somewhat related to the above three parties.

Is the host next door an official government employee, a member of a consortium, or a researcher of xenobiotics?

We can make a bold guess.

1L: The range is too big, it’s impossible to guess.

2L: Is it possible that the owner of 233 next door is an awakened person? Or, as others have guessed, he is Depriver 233 himself?

3L: I think it’s best not to post this kind of identity-picking post. If the landlord next door thinks that your exploration of his identity will threaten him, he will probably not post science popularization in the future. The identity of the host next door is not ordinary, and he knows more information than us, this is certain. I feel that it is a risk for him to send out these science popularizations at this juncture, which is great. I don’t want his identity to be exposed. Maybe he can teach us more things and tell us more information in the future. If his identity is exposed, will he still educate us?

4L replied to 3L: Agree.

5L replied 3L: I think so too.

6L: The third floor is too worrying. I think the science popularization sent by the landlord next door must be well thought out. He is not afraid of his identity being exposed. Besides, our search scope is too large. We don’t know which city he is in, and what power he belongs to , we know nothing, the possibility of the identity of the landlord next door being exposed is infinitely equal to zero.

7L: I was wondering if the landlord next door decided to popularize science after seeing the Jingchu murder case and regional missions? Because the timing is really a coincidence.

8L: The speculation upstairs is very possible.

9L replied to 7L: You mean the host next door might be from Jingchu?

10L replied to 9L: No, no, that’s not what I mean. I think that the host next door may not want to see the science popularization that Jingchu players go to the disciples to die, so that they can think carefully. Judging from his popular science, people with different blood have extraordinary abilities, and they must be much stronger than ordinary people.

11L: Today is the first day of time travel and return. This is the most important time point. I don’t think there is any need to speculate too much on the meaning of the host next door. Maybe he just decided to give us some science after careful consideration, and it has nothing to do with Jingchu or something.

12L: In any case, the science popularization of the landlord next door is definitely beneficial to all players. He has done a great thing. If the players in the Jingchu area don’t even know what a religious group is or what a blood alien is, and they accept the mission impulsively, wouldn’t they be dead? Knowing what a blood alien is, they will definitely consider it carefully when accepting the task.

13L: I believe that there are only a small number of players who accept tasks impulsively. I also believe that the host next door is doing science popularization with good intentions. TA’s science popularization is useful to all players.

After reading the hotly discussed posts, Kai Xin is basically sure that her popular science post has achieved the desired effect.

Some people doubt her, some support her, some question her, and some praise her.

The essence of human beings is Mu Qiang. She doesn’t need to do much, and she can guide the players by doing only a little bit of insignificant things.

Kai Xin is now a real hunter. She thinks with a hunter’s mentality.

She has her eyes on a prey, and she doesn’t want others to get involved with this prey, so she has to use some means to exclude other hunters from the hunting action. But the hunters have long legs, and Kai Xin couldn’t control their movements, nor could she come to the door and break their legs to keep them still, so she threw out a little information to deter them.

The effect was gratifying. Except for those who wanted to die and those who were not afraid of death, all other players retreated.

This pool of water is too deep, if you step into it, you will drown.

In addition to deterrence, there are of course some other considerations in Kai Xin’s popularization of science, and she will not proceed rashly.

She made sure that such a choice would not threaten herself, so she took this step.

Kai Xin looked down at the time.

Today is Thursday. Tomorrow, Friday, I need to give lectures to Su Rong. Saturday and Sunday are off.

Hunting one prey in two days is a little tight and challenging, and Kai Xin is willing to meet the challenge.

She plugged in the power to charge her phone, closed the curtains, and for the first time tried to activate the extraordinary ability “Shadow Shuttle” that she had deprived of from Chai Jian.

An invisible shadow enveloped her body, and her body turned into a black mist invisible to the naked eye.

Kai Xin ignored the distance and teleported from the living room to the refrigerator in the kitchen.

“The limit distance is three meters? It seems that it can be improved a little…” After being pleasantly surprised, Kai Xin tried to move again, this time she tried to “pass through the wall”.

Then her atomized body ignored the barrier and passed through the solid wall to enter the bedroom.

For the third attempt, Kai Xin took a thick rolling pin in his hand, trying to see if he could take the weapon with him.

But this attempt failed. Her body left, and the rolling pin fell on the spot. The rolling pin passed through her atomized body the moment she cast her ability.

Kai Xin pondered: “Is the influencing factor weight or volume? The clothes I wear can be taken away…”

After thinking about it, she replaced the rolling pin with a kitchen knife.

This time, the shadow shuttle was activated successfully, and the chopper atomized along with her body, crossing the space and coming under a shadow.

It seems that the influencing factor is the size, only smaller objects can be taken away by the shadow shuttle.

The level of the shadow shuttle deprived from Chai Jian is only E-level. If its level is raised a little more, the range of movement should be increased, and the volume of objects that can be carried will be larger. But even so, the shadow shuttle is already a A rare life-saving skill.

Kai Xin has practiced shadow shuttle for two hours. Her shuttle coordinates have never been accurate to precise. Most objects, don’t worry about being stabbed by a knife.

Practicing extraordinary abilities seems to consume too much energy and accelerate hunger. Two hours later, under the condition of extreme hunger, Kai Xin failed to activate her ability. Her body flickered on the spot and did not shuttle away.

“No wonder the silver noodles are so edible.” Kui Xin ordered two handfuls of noodles and two poached eggs for himself with emotion.

You have to eat well, and continue to practice when you are full.

Hunters need to sharpen their knives to cut down their prey accurately and quickly.
