Anti-Cell World

If no one had told Mo Ling about the Theseus Cells, he wouldn't have noticed such a subtle detail.

The most difficult thing for Mo Ling to face had appeared—

Humans converted by Theseus Cells.

Before reinforcements arrived, Mo Ling quickly controlled the cube to accelerate away from the soldier.

He still held a glimmer of hope in his heart.

But the further he advanced along the High Wall, the more his hope was extinguished.

The periphery was entirely made up of Theseus Cells!

Mo Ling even climbed over the High Wall and circled around outside a few times.

All life was living normally, with birds singing and flowers fragrant, full of vitality, but without exception, they were all Theseus Cells.

Mo Ling returned inside the wall and cautiously approached the Outpost Station.

His vision penetrated the ground, and the soldiers inside were working in an orderly manner. The layout of various facilities was no different from the first time Mo Ling had seen them.

But this was the most terrifying thing.

Recalling what the soldier he had just seen said, Mo Ling confirmed his guess:

This was a world of Theseus Cells!

In this world, normal cells were called Anti-Cells.

That's why this area was sealed off separately, and there were no traces of Theseus Cells to be found.

Mo Ling had once thought about what it would be like if a world was completely replaced by Theseus Cells.

He had thought that the people in that world would be in great pain.

But he hadn't expected that the concept would be completely reversed.

The minority would be called anomalies!

The soldiers were vividly present within the Outpost Station. They might have been born with Theseus Cells throughout their bodies, and there was no such thing as replacement.

These living Theseus Humans grew and died normally.

Perhaps in their biology, Theseus Cells were the basic units that made up organisms.

While Mo Ling was still observing these soldiers, someone noticed it.

"That cube ran to the Outpost Station! Stop it quickly!"

A small team chased after it.

Mo Ling could have dealt with them, but looking at these Theseus Cell Humans, he felt a strange sensation.

"It should be a Relic with independent consciousness. I don't know how it got into the sealed area."

"Have any comrades reported a lost Relic recently?"

"No, not from the Monitoring Station either. I checked, and it should be an undiscovered Relic."

"Okay, let's try to communicate first. It also needs a price to use its ability, and currently, it doesn't seem to have any killing power."

Are they different from ordinary Humans?

Mo Ling's teleportation box aimed at the heads of this group of soldiers.

Then it moved down sharply, turning all the soldiers' weapons into fragments.

Mo Ling controlled the cube to float upwards, quickly leaving the Outpost Station.

He still couldn't bring himself to do it.

In the blink of an eye, Mo Ling was back in the Great Tree Cave.

Controlling the cube to stop on a platform, Mo Ling leaned against the metal wall, panting heavily.

Just the Outpost Station in this world had already made Mo Ling feel oppressed.

Thinking about everything behind it – the Monitoring Station, the Abyss, Dawn City – he no longer dared to explore further.

"Let's go back first, I'm really hungry."

One of the reasons Mo Ling went to the Outpost Station in this world was to find something to eat.

But seeing the bizarre scene at the Outpost Station, he knew that even if there was food, it was likely made of Theseus Cells, perhaps even transparent.

Although it was all protein and energy, Mo Ling felt very uncomfortable about it.

"Wouldn't it be ridiculous if the Tree Transformers of the Cube Tribe knew that their Holy Object just wanted to eat?" Mo Ling mocked himself.

After resting for a moment, Mo Ling controlled the cube to slowly descend into the Great Tree Cave.

The descent speed was very slow. With the fluorescence from the glowing mushrooms, Mo Ling finally saw the bottom of the Great Tree Cave clearly.

This was a pool covered with glowing algae. The deep roots within the Great Tree Cave twisted and plunged into the bottom of the pool.

The hollows between the tree roots extended into the distance, supporting a vast and empty space.

Some small creatures covered by glowing algae lived peacefully in this space.

Although deep underground, damp and decaying, it was not at all lifeless.

Looking at this peaceful scene, Mo Ling's mind, which had been impacted by the Theseus Cell world, slowly recovered.

Continue to descend.

When Mo Ling was about to fall into the pool, the glowing water actually extended upwards like tentacles.

Mo Ling quickly stopped the cube in the air.

The tentacles swayed in the air, and several small tentacles extended out, constantly probing and grabbing below the cube.

Mo Ling tentatively placed the cube on the tip of a tentacle. The glowing tentacle that touched the cube quickly adhered to the metal wall and climbed up.

The slightly fluorescent water climbed higher and higher along the surface until it completely engulfed the entire cube.

A thin film of water gently pulled the cube into the pool.

After thinking for a moment, Mo Ling released control, allowing the cube to fall into the water like a pebble under the force of gravity.

The moment he fell into the water, the familiar reversal of gravity appeared again.

Mo Ling felt the cube pass through a curtain of water, and the entire world flipped over.

The cube shot out from the water curtain and landed on a pool of water.

Water splashed everywhere.

Inside the cube, Mo Ling braced himself with his hands, almost hitting his head again.

"Fortunately, the fall wasn't from a great height this time."

Only after Mo Ling sat up straight did he notice a figure beside the cube, their face filled with vigilance.

The figure's hair and clothes were soaked by the water splashed from the cube. Drops of water, whether from the pool or sweat, slid down their smooth cheeks.

It was Li Luo!

Her expression slowly changed from vigilance to relief. She walked forward and patted the cube: "Where did you go?"

After speaking, she seemed to remember something. She took out an electronic screen from her bag and placed it on the cube.

Mo Ling transmitted the electronic screen into the cube. Holding the screen, he was momentarily unsure how to describe his experience.

The matter of the Theseus Cell world seems too terrifying for the Humans here.

After thinking for a moment, Mo Ling wrote three large words on the electronic screen:

"I don't know."

Mo Ling truly didn't know what kind of place that was.

What if it was another dream?

If it was a dream, that would be a good thing.

Seeing the answer, Li Luo didn't get angry. She just circled the cube a few times, checking if it was damaged.

She wiped the mud off the cube:

"I've been looking for you since the Voice of God disappeared these past two days."

Only then did Mo Ling notice Li Luo's dark circles.

So she had been worried about him.

Mo Ling continued to ask using the electronic screen: "Did the Voice of God really disappear? When?"

After getting Li Luo's answer, Mo Ling calculated carefully and found that the time the Voice of God disappeared was exactly when the Tree Transformer Chief put down the spine.

What was the connection?

Mo Ling also learned that Li Luo had almost explored the entire bottom of the Great Tree Cave.

It was a huge empty space inside, with nothing but a vast shallow pool.

The creatures transformed by Theseus Cells attacked each other inside, but after the Voice of God disappeared, the creatures here gradually became normal.

This allowed Li Luo to have the opportunity to search the bottom of the cave.

"There's really nothing else?" Mo Ling confirmed repeatedly, and the answers were all the same.

Mo Ling, not believing it, lowered his vision to explore.

Beneath the shallow pool was only murky silt.

There was no water curtain that could traverse worlds at all
