Doomsday Drill World, Day 22, Blue Star, Fenghai Hotel, Dafeng City, Top Floor Suite.
" The Quantum Realm has no hierarchy, only upward and downward movement." A dark red Light Ball floated in the center of the living room, explaining the essence of this world to everyone.
After Ling Yi Plunder all the alien Evolution Crystal, he went directly to the spaceship outside the planet and sliced it open with a single Blade of Space.
The dark Light Ball was captured by Ling Yi and forcibly brought back to the Blue Star of this world.
"We are humans from the Upstream Quantum Realm, roughly two thousand years ahead of your Quantum Realm civilization."
"You're saying you're human too?" Bai Mengyan in surprise.
"But why did you turn into a ball?"
"What ball stuff? This is a consciousness energy body. Do you know what a consciousness energy body is? It's a special life form formed by the combination of consciousness and Quantum. Never mind, you wouldn't understand anyway."
"In short, the consciousness energy body is the most perfect form, immortal and powerful, while the human body is like a dilapidated machine that binds the soul."
"From the moment a human is born, they are constantly rusting, breaking, and being repaired, until they finally age and break down completely, and consciousness collapses along with the aging of the body."
"Only by freeing oneself from the constraints of the body can one truly achieve freedom."
Ni Xueqin nudged Bai Mengyan and whispered, "Why does this guy sound familiar?"
"Yeah, it just feels strangely familiar."
"I remember now, it's that line from the story of Zhou Chu eliminating the three evils, the one with the Yin and Yang- faced expression," Ni Xueqin said.
Bai Mengyan nodded. "Yes, that's it."
Bai Mengya and the others didn't speak loudly, but they didn't deliberately suppress their voices either, so everyone could hear them.
Ling Yi and the others had all seen the movie, or at least heard of it.
Compared to this, hey, this Light Ball actually has that vibe.
But in the movie, the Yin and Yang- faced character's words were just a hoax, while this Light Ball could actually do it.
"What about Zhou Chu eliminating the three evils?" the Light Ball asked, puzzled.
"That's not important. Just Copy a copy of your technique for Xiao Ling later," Ling Yi said, waving his hand.
" Xiao Ling, is that your AI program? Xiao Ling's core code is incredibly powerful. If we take it a step further, we could develop a consciousness engine that can completely Simulation consciousness data."
"As long as the hardware is up to par, human consciousness can be completely transformed into consciousness data and uploaded to the Computer," the Light Ball said, shaking slightly.
" Ling Yi, I can help you upgrade Xiao Ling. No, I can Fusion directly with Xiao Ling and become your personal butler, serving you from now on. All you need to do is take me with you when you return to this world."
"You want to Fusion with Xiao Ling?" Ling Yi, somewhat surprised.
"Sigh!" the Light Ball sighed.
"There's no way around it, our world is definitely doomed."
"We have already conducted over a thousand Doomsday Drill, which means that if our world is deemed a failure, a thousand different apocalyptic disasters will simultaneously occur."
"Zombie apocalypse, solar storms, meteorite impacts, lunar crashes, electronic viruses, and so on—there are too many. If a thousand apocalyptic disasters were to strike simultaneously, I can't think of any other possibility for our world but destruction."
The Light Ball's words sent a chill down everyone's spine.
They could hardly imagine what it would be like to experience a thousand apocalyptic disasters happening at the same time.
"You've won over a thousand times in a row?" Ye Feng asked.
"What you're saying is inaccurate. The Doomsday Drill is divided into two types: the Downstream Quantum Realm is about Qiusheng, while the Upstream Quantum Realm is about confrontation, and only then can there be a winner and a loser."
"Just like this Quantum Realm, which is Upstream Quantum Realm, that's why I exist."
Li Feng pointed out the window, puzzled, and said, "The Upstream Quantum Realm and the Downstream Quantum Realm seem to be no different, right?"
What difference do you think there will be?
"Shouldn't the Upstream Quantum Realm be even more powerful?"
The Light Ball swayed, as if shaking its head. "As I just said, the Quantum Realm has no hierarchy, only upward and downward movement; you can think of it as Parallel World."
"However, the development trajectory of each Quantum Realm is slightly different. For example, in some Quantum Realm, the art student from Mark Country did not die and successfully conquered most of Europe."
"The entire world order has changed from the original five great benefactors to three great benefactors: the Mark Country, the Amai Chou, and our Ancient Country."
"That art student, as he grew older, his ambition grew, and he even dared to attempt to dominate the world. In the end, he took on two opponents single-handedly, fighting two great benefactors."
"That was a declining world I experienced, and the apocalyptic disaster was war."
"By the end of the war, they had gone mad. The Amai Chou and the Mark Country were throwing giant mushrooms at each other for a full hundred days." As the Light Ball finished speaking, its color began to flicker.
He was clearly somewhat agitated.
"What about our Ancient Country?" Bai Mengyan asked.
"With athletes like us in our Ancient Country, of course we're fine. We can just watch the show and be spectators."
Everyone suddenly realized that the addition of Qiusheng players could indeed change the game.
Just like Ling Yi and his group, if they appeared in this world, they would probably do the same.
"Actually, we've failed before," the Light Ball said again.
"About a thousand years ago, we failed once before. That was during the thirteenth Doomsday Drill world after we were chosen by Demon God No. 7."
"The apocalyptic disaster of that world happened to be an electronic zombie virus, which is almost a natural enemy of us consciousness energy beings."
"Electronic zombie virus? What's that?" Ye Feng asked.
"The intelligent technology of that world has advanced by leaps and bounds, especially in the research of intelligent life, which has reached an extremely high level. Humans created an intelligent life form called Dienna, and then, it went out of control."
"Through virtual games, Dienna secretly loaded a virus into the consciousness data of all humans, turning them into electronic zombies and giving them control over nearly 90% of the world's population."
"We had barely appeared in this world when Dienna discovered us and immediately launched an electronic virus bomb. We couldn't even last half a month before we were all wiped out."
"After that failed Qiusheng, thirteen apocalyptic disasters struck, including an electronic zombie virus, and our world almost didn't make it through."
" The Blue Star stopped rotating, solar storms raged, Volcano, earthquakes struck, tsunamis raged, and meteorites collided; the entire world had practically become Hell."
Ling Yi and the others were shocked; they could hardly imagine what that scene would be like.
"Fortunately, we had a contingency plan in place for failure. Nearly half of the people stored their consciousness in a completely independent and hidden server."
"They were released by the survivors only after 100 days, when the apocalyptic disaster had completely passed."
"Therefore, never, ever fail in your Qiusheng, not even once."
Everyone fell silent, and the viewers in the real-world live stream also fell silent.
Very few people are posting comments anymore.
The words of this Light Ball truly shocked everyone.
[Is this fake? Isn't this just a virtual world? All this talk of disasters and calamities, it's all so real.]
What if it's true?
[It's either a "what if" scenario or it's true. I've wanted to say this for a long time: there's something fundamentally wrong with this show. With our current technology, we simply can't create a virtual world.]
[It's not just the technology that's lagging behind; the hardware is also insufficient. Even with technological breakthroughs, if the hardware and computing speed can't keep up, it's absolutely impossible to Simulation such a massive virtual world.]
[Oh no, does that mean we're destined to experience an apocalyptic disaster sooner or later?]
[It's a doomsday disaster extravaganza.]
[Can we not participate in this Doomsday Drill? If we don't participate, the disaster won't happen.]
[That's probably impossible. If they could avoid participating, the show would have been canceled long ago.]
What is that Demon God? Why does it have a number?
[The presence of a number indicates that there is more than one.]
So, which Demon God has been chosen for our world?
Why do I have this feeling that we're all just NPCs in a game?
Meanwhile, Teng Ren Elder Teng others who were watching the live broadcast also had solemn expressions.
"That M3 should be the Demon God No. 3, right?" said Feng Zhenqing, the Elder Feng.
"That should be it. M3 is just a name we gave it because the M3 Subunit has the 'M3' mark engraved on it, hence the name M3." Teng Ren nodded.
"I had suspected before that a failure in the Doomsday Drill would inevitably have bad consequences, but I didn't expect it to be like this. Therefore, Ling Yi and the others absolutely cannot fail."
" Ling Yi and Ye Feng are both very special, especially Ling Yi. He shouldn't fail, right?"
"I hope not."
The group fell silent; they could only place all their hopes on Ling Yi and his companions.
"Should we give the final authority to one of them to increase Ling Yi and the others' survivability?" Zheng Hu suddenly asked.
The three of them, Elder Feng, all frowned and looked at him.
"Hasn't Li Hai's lesson been enough?" Elder Feng said in a deep voice.
Zheng Hu frowned, wanting to say something, but unable to refute it.
Li Hai was one of his soldiers, and it was he who overruled objections to include Li Hai in the ten-person Qiusheng team.
To his utter surprise, Li Hai was not only a troublemaker, but also an idiot.
It was also because of Li Hai's incident that Zheng Hu was publicly criticized by the boss.
"I just hope to improve Ling Yi and the others' overall strength," Zheng Hu said in a deep voice.
With Smiling Tiger but Yu Sheng expression, Elder Yu pushed up his glasses and asked, "So, who do you think should have this final authority?"
"Here..." Zheng Hu was about to say the name when he saw Teng Ren and the others looking at him with indifferent expressions.
For a moment, he was unable to speak.
" Old Zheng, you should retire!" Elder Feng said, then paused and added, "This is the boss's decision."
Zheng Hu's face paled slightly. He seemed to want to say something, but ultimately remained silent. After a long while, he stood up and walked out of the conference room.
However, his figure had become somewhat hunched.
"He brought it on himself!" Yu Sheng Elder Yu said disdainfully.
" Old Zheng is too power-hungry, what a pity," Elder Feng shook his head.
At this point, Elder Teng said, "Other countries are applying to participate in the Doomsday Drill. I think we should refuse. They'll only cause trouble and won't help with Qiusheng at all."
"Yes, no need to refuse." Elder Feng nodded.
"Won't this cause trouble for Ling Yi and the others?" Elder Yu asked.
"Heh, trouble? I don't believe any other country will produce a second Ling Yi."
