Chapter 1226: Chapter 1226

1226: Chapter 1212: Testing 1226: Chapter 1212: Testing “The returns from this venture will likely not be less than those from the Silent Mountain Range World…”

When Lu Ping’an’s Life Bank successfully deciphered this fragment, even he marveled at the grand scale of the gamble by Lin Nu’s Church this time.

Normal explorations to the Exotic Realm by explorers are like “Travel Canines”…

Travelers would take away some local products and leave compensation, that was all.

In this way, the relationship between both sides remained relatively harmonious, essentially a win-win situation…

This was the realistic choice for the limited number of explorers in the Eastern Country, a stable, long-term yet slowly effective evolutionary path.

But now, it had clearly turned into a “strategic design on a national scale”.

“Either rake it all in or lose it all, a big gamble indeed.”

This stele before him was part of the “World Authority”, or you could say a keystone of the World’s Reason, usually impossible to obtain under normal circumstances.

And now, here it was, and so many of them….

“It seems we will be facing the world’s hostility, heh, perhaps, this is the very essence of the world’s animosity.”

Lu Ping’an pondered what would happen if this thing were left unchecked.

“Spider Monkeys rapidly evolving, an entire race of extraordinary beings rapidly reproducing… When they evolve from an ethnic group to a nation or even a civilization, they naturally will start to compete for their own living space…”

Lu Ping’an faintly sensed that another aspect of this treasure might just be a “world-destroying crisis”.

The appearance of this world authority in the Mortal World was already too abnormal.

“Mei Yuge, that day in the sky, about how many fragments were there?”

“…..From what I saw, there were certainly a few hundred.”

Lu Ping’an furrowed his brow, fearing that just these things alone could drive the entire world mad.

Unlike other worlds’ “Chaos Resistance Consciousness”, this world possessed a personal will, meaning if it could still act freely, it might even actively guide its inhabitants toward their demise.

Now that it had been backstabbed by humans, it seemed that humans had likely moved to the top of its list of grievances, surpassing all Exotic Realm Invaders.

“Is this a means for revenge?

Is it It’s lost treasure in the Mortal World or some other possibility….”

The mysteries at this level were also beyond Big Cat’s experience; she could only repeatedly emphasize the rarity and value of the item before her.

“It appears to be a stone, but in essence, it’s a ‘non-corporeal existence’.

It’s likely that it floated onto this stone when it fell into the Mortal World, then that creature found a method to ‘brew tea’ for consumption, diluting and absorbing it, and usurped a portion of the authority….”

Some things cannot be deciphered, yet they can be understood.

Don’t joke about it, aren’t you clear what would happen if you directly embraced such a high-level source of contamination?

That odd entity will likely self-destruct quickly, but…”

There was some hesitation and unease in Big Cat’s tone.

“…When this thing is laid before you, even a Quasi-God could not resist its allure.

If you had to describe its existence in one word, I suppose it should be…

Though the information was still insufficient, some things had already become certain.

This World Origin was destined to become a new source of calamity…..after all, even Lu Ping’an himself found it hard to resist their temptation.

Motivated solely by eliminating their dangers, no one would let these “meteors” pass.

“Times of trouble indeed, with invaders from the Foreign Domain arriving, and the World’s Will also becoming an enemy….”

But by now, the Linnu Force probably had no way back.

Since they had chosen to betray that inhuman World Consciousness, they had to be prepared to win it all or lose it all.

“Indeed, a major event has erupted.”

Lu Ping’an considered that the most rational (conservative) course of action now would likely be to take as much as possible and then make a quick getaway.

“….It seems, it won’t be that easy.”

Lu Ping’an looked back at the three who had aged into middle-aged men and become thoroughly acculturated, sighing deeply.

These three who had moved away from front-line roles, already deeply tied to this world, considering the other members who had remained local, it likely wouldn’t be easy to leave.

“…It seems, we must take this seriously now.”

Mysteriously, Lu Ping’an thought of the desperate situation on Green Planet, that life-or-death battlefield.

If he had not guessed wrongly, once the situation developed into such a terrible scenario, it would probably be more desperate than Green Planet.

“Since it’s being done, let’s go all the way.

Since the World’s Will isn’t anything good, let’s put it to sleep forever…”

If possible, Lu Ping’an absolutely did not want the situation to worsen…

Merely waiting was not enough to avoid the worst-case scenario.

“The World’s Will must not be allowed to turn the tables…”

Lu Ping’an had envisioned the worst scenario, where the World’s Will regained control of the situation.

If it really came to that, Lu Ping’an would not hesitate to leave…

When the world really wanted you dead, surviving would become a difficult thing.

Thinking it over, Lu Ping’an started his plan.

“The sixth probe, start…”

The “Abstract Organism” was still raging furiously.

However, with the reduction of the “Contamination Source,” it was clearly in a weakened state.

This fragment was just “Fragment A,” but since he had a piece of it, Lu Ping’an naturally hoped to make it complete.

But this time, the probe ended in failure as well.

With Fang Wen there, not only did they have mass-produced explorers, Lu Ping’an could also see the situation on the battlefield for himself.

In a sense, that thing could be considered an attachment body of the “World Origin.” If rated according to professional levels…

Heaven knows what it is, but the several traits it has shown so far are nearly unsolvable.

“Hundreds of eyes, just getting close and being targeted, one becomes unable to move…”

Every attempt has its value.

Before really entering the battle, Lu Ping’an needed more intelligence.

“But each eye can’t lock on to a target at the same time.

Switching targets, however, gives about…

roughly 0.1 seconds of free time…”

Lu Ping’an called out the wolf pack to act as probes, though they were basically lost at the first encounter, but they also gained enough intelligence.

“It’s poisonous, but it seems to be the Spider Monkey’s own venom…

The antidote works well, just be careful during real combat.”

Poisonous life forms are common, but a giant creature of such size, covered in poison, is a bit hair-raising.

“The Logistics Team has developed a targeted antidote, should be able to make a hundred sets within three hours.

Also, this protective clothing, wearing it prevents the chance of becoming paralyzed.”

The monster itself lacks intelligence, which is probably the only good news.

“It’s not necessarily a lack of intelligence…

With so many eyes, mouths, and the ability to operate so many tentacles simultaneously, it completely distorts the normal biological structure and function requirements.

The Beast Tamer suspects it has too many brains.”

The experts suspect it has schizophrenia, so it might not be very proactive.

“Thick skin, and can regenerate…”

This too is bad news, but not unexpected.

And what Lu Ping’an most wanted to know, the “core capabilities,” “weaknesses,” were not things he could find out in the short term…

The only consolation was, with the “Source” gone, it was clearly getting weaker.

If possible, Lu Ping’an truly wanted to wait until it was at its weakest,

but since the creature had intelligence, it would not sit idly by—things would not be so easy…

Finally, having exhausted the already nearly depleted pool, it started moving.

“The village, it’s heading towards the village!”
