I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 471 - 262: The Primeval Terror
The expressions of Doukou Hong and others in the meeting room suddenly turned heavy.
Watching those who selflessly went to their deaths, they suddenly understood what they were bearing on their shoulders: it was the lives sacrificed by countless people to give them the chance to conduct their research!
This person from the Xirong Divine Craftsman force had sacrificed themselves without even leaving their name behind.
Just like that, they bid farewell to their families, gave their all till death, without anyone remembering their names or anyone erecting monuments or writings for them. Their sacrifices would vanish into the river of history.
Soon, the blacksmith, who lost his fiancée, walked out from the Resurrection Point again, went to the Blood Separation Flower’s medical institution to reshape his face into an old woman’s, and came back, crying bitterly, overcome with grief:
"Son, my love, why have you gone!"
He suddenly kneeled on the ground, looked at the distant pile of stones, and cried out loudly, then stood up and laughed miserably, saying:
"Why, why... I was just washing clothes under the mountain, cooking, waiting for you three to return from iron-making on the mountain, and then all this happened. I’m a woman who doesn’t understand the burden of the living world, national hatred, family loss, and if the sky falls, there are tall ones to hold it up. Why did you..."
Everyone reacted.
A family of four, just lost a husband who followed his wife into death, a father died, and now the only remaining mother came?
"It’s you! It’s all you!!"
"What family duty, what world salvation, I don’t understand, I don’t understand!!"
The peasant woman suddenly turned her head, looking at the group of people before her, her face flashed with resentment, but finally, the resentment turned into complexity, and she sighed, "Alas, I’m the only one left..."
"It’s my fault." The Tri-Colored Cloud Rainbow sighed deeply, "Blame me, sometimes things need to be vented to feel a bit better."
"No, I can’t understand a single character written, and I don’t understand you people’s complexities, since my husband and son both believed you were right, then you must be right, I respect them."
"Even the kids weren’t afraid, what should I fear for..." She didn’t give anyone the chance to refute, directly leapt into the lava pit, which instantly infected the viruses present on the corpse pile.
The hairy ape turned its head and asked: "What potion shall I use, what experiment should I conduct?"
Before him lay a pile of various experimental reagents.
Everyone’s mouth opened, complex emotions surged like tides in their hearts, enveloped by profound shock.
Bang!
Ten minutes later, this elderly woman joined the experiment, obtained data, and exploded on the spot.
"Ah, it hurts, it hurts so much!"
The piercing scream shook the mountains and rivers, like a wailing of gods and spirits, shocking everyone across.
The old woman spewed blood, crawled a bit on the ground, choked out before a pile of fresh bones: "I’m here... I’m coming to join you all..."
"Ah! So painful!!"
The thunderous noise of the old woman shattered the silence of the night, awakening the sleeping earth. The old woman rolled a few times, finally exploded into a mist of blood.
Alas!
Everyone fell silent; even the most tenacious had some who couldn’t bear it and quietly began to cry.
The old woman’s dying scream made everyone’s ears ache.
The guilt of causing this elderly woman’s family’s death fanned a fiery red across everyone’s faces.
Though the old woman’s blood mist exploded on the ground, it made everyone’s eyes wet.
"This family, the whole clan is loyal and brave!" sighed Doukou Hong.
The fiancé who died for his wife, even though he was supposed to propose in a few days.
The father who lost all will to live for his son also chose death, yet they were ultimately resilient, not crying in their pain.
The illiterate village woman didn’t understand duty, didn’t understand why these ’scholars’ harmed her family, but she respected her family’s choices, and the old woman who was terribly afraid of pain also went amid wailing.
"Losing to such people, isn’t unjust."
Tri-Colored Cloud Rainbow sighed: "They are indeed worthy of being the Nine-State’s first Divine Doctor."
The guilt was like a thunderbolt, piercing the silent night sky, accelerating the heartbeat, making the blood boil.
He was known as the Nine-State’s first Divine Doctor, having conducted countless medical reforms. The world said he saved countless lives, but now...
He couldn’t even save the family of three before him.
Choking, with a slight sob in his throat, but ultimately remaining a cool person, his eyes showed a hint of resolve and determination, stating firmly:
"Dear friends!! We cannot let others’ sacrifices be in vain, we must quickly research what this mysterious thing truly is!"
At this moment, people started stepping forward, and countless blood mists erupted in the sky, the tragic scene rendering everyone utterly silent.
"Next, it will be me, to die for the living world, I have no regrets in my life."
"Let me, for the nation’s survival whether it brings disaster or fortune doesn’t deter me."
"My comrades, I’ll join you."
This scene was too tragic.
Fighting to the death, just to weave that simple dream.
...
Sword Casting Manor.
Even Ning Zheng watched on silently.
It was initially a very simple matter:
Discover the meteorite trap, report it, gather information, and alert all forces.
But such a simple process turned into this.
They were lining up one by one, the mighty procession was quite a spectacle.
"Don’t cut in line."
"So exhilarating, I want to do it again."
"A little shock, brought to the big shot in front of the screen."
"Magnificent is our Xirong Divine Craftsman."
"To be honest, the planning startled my back. I originally thought it was a monster-fighting upgrade dungeon, who knew it was an unexpected [Faction Reputation Dungeon]!"
"For us, the Xirong Divine Craftsman, this wave of reputation, we must hurry up and grind! Opportunity knocks but once."
"Grinding reputation, grinding reputation; the main thing is to die heroically, and die dashingly."
"For those who haven’t experienced it, can they go first? The family of three over there, I’m talking about you. You’ve already taken all the Three Battles Against White Bone Spirit slots, daughter, husband, father, mother, give some chances to others."
...
Then, Xinyi Baisan swore to the heavens that he witnessed a scene he would never forget in his lifetime.
As the first top powerhouse to come into contact with this mysterious Xirong Divine Craftsman, he thought he already knew them well, but now he truly understood what they bear and what they cherish.
New stories came one after another, wailing elderly women, generous and courageous patriots, timid but death-fearing introverted girls...
With blood and flesh, only when the full character settings sacrifice themselves does it touch the soul.
One after another, this experiment took more than five hours in total, with bones scattered everywhere.
This group of high-end professionals from the Nine-State circle, tormented by inner guilt, was also completely convinced, a strong sense of guilt surged from the depths of their hearts like a tide.
They were the first batch of top existences after the start of the Postnatal Myth Era!
How proud were they?
Previously, when casting the Sun Moon, they were unconvinced.
They were even too lazy to communicate with the casting team of the Xirong Divine Craftsman, forging their own Sun Moon.
When casting the Ark, they were unconvinced.
For the Defense Tower, they were unconvinced as well.
Even now, forced by circumstances, they came to Ximen City to communicate information and hold the [Salvation Research Summit] together. Even after witnessing the various divine phenomena of Ximen City, they were not completely convinced.
Man Tianshou couldn’t help but whisper:
Until today...
Until today...
Witnessing this scene, it deeply resonated, the shock was immense.
"Talent, timeless and brilliant."
"Virtue, comparable to a Saint."
"A combination of virtue and talent, rarely seen in history... indeed worthy of being the chief among our circle!"
Man Tianshou, the first Divine Craftsman of Nine-State, at this moment was completely convinced, lowering his proud head.
Not for skill, but for character.
In the days to come, they will truly support this one ascending to the supreme throne of the professionals, following this one to pioneer the era together in this city, saving this chaotic world!
Time flew by swiftly.
With repeated sacrifice research, their cohesiveness was unprecedentedly high.
In their hearts, only some mad thoughts lingered:
Die a little less!
Work a little harder!
Move a bit faster!
These words constantly mumbled out of their mouths.
They grabbed their unruly hair, scratching their ears and cheeks querying some ancient texts, blushing as they discussed, even cursing each other out due to different concepts, with roars shaking the whole lab.
"Wrong, wrong! This is also wrong!"
"Indeed, we were right. This is fundamentally not a virus! Nor Gu Insect!"
"It’s blood lineage!"
"But how could it be blood lineage?"
"This merely activates the human bloodline, meaning this ape virus is deeply hidden within every human?"
In such a highly concentrated situation, they transmitted various agents across spaces for testing and recorded the data.
Finally, they reached a conclusion.
And the principle of the Human Ape Virus instilled fear in them, as if ancient truths from eons ago silently entangled them, like vines pulling them into the historical tidal seabed, the dark ocean floor making them tremble all over, with no escape.
"This can’t be!"
"Yes, this is simply, simply...!"
As the most elite group of Nine-State, their full-power state is extremely terrifying.
They quickly reached a conclusion.
But this conclusion was somewhat unacceptable to them.
Because this frightening conclusion would overturn their understanding of the long human history, unveiling the terrifying veil of ancient truths!
"This is fundamentally not a virus, nor a Gu Insect, nor a parasite."
"This is... a virus named [Cycle], skin, hair, Two-Phase Cycle."
"Skin and hair cycle."
"This is a special Two-Phase Realm."
This conclusion is enough to create a tsunami in the hearts of everyone in this era.
