Chapter 39: Lost Civilization and Opening the Isolation Wall!

Since knowing that Jiu Jiu possessed human wisdom, Wu Pifu's attitude toward her was different from before. Not only would he talk to her, but if there was anything important, he would also tell her.

This attitude undoubtedly made Jiu Jiu very happy. She flew onto Wu Pifu's shoulder and chirped.

Wu Pifu took out the old paper and said: "There are not many words on this, but it is very important. I don't know where you found it... Other information is useless, but this piece of information is very important: 'We have initially confirmed the measurement standard of the source of pollution. With our world as the reality anchor, the pollution characteristic is zero, which means our reality does not possess any pollution, unless it is the pollution brought by things coming from below. And the first layer below, the pollution characteristic is digitized as one to one hundred, the second layer is one hundred to one thousand...' This is the important information the Main Brain needs! It is estimated that it is in this USB flash drive."

Jiu Jiu chirped, jumping back and forth on Wu Pifu's shoulder and in front of the paper, and tilted her head to look at him.

Wu Pifu said: "Rest assured, I haven't peeked alone. This information is extremely important, and the Main Brain is even willing to take out rewards. It must be a good thing. I'm waiting for you to wake up to see it together."

Jiu Jiu chirped happily again. Wu Pifu smiled and said: "You are the one who sleeps heavily, like a pig. You sleep for half a day after eating..."

Jiu Jiu was furious, flew straight to his face, and then began to peck at his forehead.

During the commotion, Wu Pifu picked up the black object and said: "Main Brain, play the content inside."

"Confirmation of playback... confirmation completed, about to play the content of this information carrier..."

"Warning, this information carrier contains high-level information pollution, initially judged as baseline reality zero point five level..."

"This information pollution has been eliminated, comprehensive judgment, sixty-eight percent information loss... whether to continue playing the content inside?"

Wu Pifu's face was a bit awkward. He really didn't expect that after the elimination of information pollution, only thirty-two percent of the information could be watched. He could only helplessly say: "Play."

Soon, a light curtain descended, and a virtual reality-like scene projection appeared. Then Wu Pifu and Jiu Jiu appeared in a conference venue, but this conference venue looked strange. There were square metal blocks everywhere, and the participants were either sitting on metal blocks or standing on metal blocks, and these metal blocks were all floating in the air, including Wu Pifu and Jiu Jiu on the largest metal block.

There were only more than forty people in the entire conference venue, and their images were different... really different. Some had three heads and six arms, some had wings on their backs, some had snake lower bodies, some had huge spider lower bodies, and of course, there were ordinary human images. In total, there were more than forty, as if a group of monsters and humans were having a meeting.

Just as Wu Pifu and Jiu Jiu were looking at the surroundings, a semi-mechanical life about six meters high in front of them spoke: "... Summarizing the information passed back by thirty-two thousand exploration teams, we can draw the following conclusions."

"The reality level we are in can be recognized as the material reality world. In the material reality world, there is no pollution. Of course, you all understand what I mean by pollution, not various radiation, biology, or meme-type infectious sources, but refers to ******..."

"Current observation and calculation data show that the first layer of the world below us, the source of pollution is one to one hundred, the second layer of the world is one hundred to one thousand, and so on... So far, we have discovered six layers in total, which is the level of one million to ten million for the source of pollution..."

Speaking of this, the other colorful creatures breathed a sigh of relief, and several of them showed smiles. A creature with an upper body of a giant elephant and a lower body of a horse said: "Although it is still terrifying, this is not unreachable. As long as we can unite, and all departments and academic factions work together, it is not impossible to resist the erosion of the million-level source of pollution. I will set an example here. The giant alchemy faction I belong to is willing to share all our alchemy formulas with you!"

Someone took the lead, and the rest naturally didn't want to fall behind, each expressing their willingness to take out the resources, alchemy formulas, experimental products, weapons, etc., of their factions or academic factions. For a time, everyone seemed selfless.

Wu Pifu keenly discovered that the words spoken by these existences all mentioned one thing... Alchemy!

And he saw with his own eyes that several creatures were floating in the air, and there were anomalies such as fire, thunder, and light on their bodies between flicking their fingers. Although they could be explained by scientific instruments, how did it look like supernatural power?

Just when everyone was discussing enthusiastically, in the center, which was the metal block where Wu Pifu was, the huge semi-mechanical life suddenly spoke: "This is the explored part, which is a six-layer structure. And further down, our exploration team could no longer move forward, unable to explore the lower structure, and then... everyone, please open your strongest alchemy defense formation. The thing to be played next is the image returned by our most elite team, led by heroes with single-digit titles, whose strength is on par with us present, and this is the last image returned by them..."

Then, this virtual image all stuttered. A few seconds later, the screen flashed, and what appeared in front of Wu Pifu and Jiu Jiu was a huge ruin. Most of the strange lives seen before had been torn apart or disappeared. Only less than ten lives remained on the scene, and the huge semi-mechanical life only had half of its body left, and its whole body was sparking.

"It's just a piece of footage, why would it be like this, why would it have spirituality..."

"... Is there really a god? Is there really a demon? Are there really those existences in the religious sense?"

"If so, then what are we?"

The semi-mechanical life made such a voice, and then the entire screen ended and returned to the scene of the Gaia maintenance base.

Wu Pifu and Jiu Jiu didn't move for a long time. Everything just now really opened their eyes.

One of them came from the 21st century, although there were computers and mobile phones, this immersive full-scene image was the first time they saw it. And Jiu Jiu came from the Song Dynasty, let alone seeing all this.

One person and one bird were shocked for a long time before they looked at each other, and then Jiu Jiu chirped. Wu Pifu seemed to understand and shook his head: "It's gone. I didn't close this, it's that all known information has been played."

Jiu Jiu chirped listlessly. Wu Pifu looked at Jiu Jiu and said: "I didn't expect you to be a bird that likes to brush dramas... It's definitely not possible now. If you open those entertainment facility rooms in the future, you can see many good movies and animations."

Jiu Jiu flew onto Wu Pifu's shoulder and chirped at him.

Wu Pifu's attention was focused on the image he had just seen.

"According to the content said in the image, if the scene in the image is in the real world, then the one to one hundred pollution source world is equivalent to baseline reality zero point nine, and the one hundred to one thousand pollution source world is equivalent to baseline reality zero point eight... Then this alchemy civilization is equivalent to exploring the zero point four world, and then encountered great terror when exploring the zero point three world. Even the returned footage about this terror caused their large-scale death and damage... It's simply terrifying."

Wu Pifu was secretly shocked, and became more and more fearful of the deeper dream world.

However, in the image information watched this time, although most of it was eliminated because of information hazards, a lot of useful information was also obtained from it, such as... pollution source digitization and standardization.

The pollution source of baseline reality zero point nine is one to one hundred, and for every layer down, the upper and lower limits of the pollution source are increased by ten times. These are all aside, the real key is... is it limited that the pollution source is only one to one hundred?

"The Unborn Mother cannot go to the zero point nine world from the Vacuum Hometown, otherwise how could I still have my life now? But there are exceptions. If a Level 2 nightmare goes from a low-level dream world to a high-level dream world, its strength will not be reduced. How is this achieved?"

Wu Pifu thought carefully about the connection of all this.

He was not a very smart person. All this information was full of mysteries to him, but he still keenly discovered one of the key factors... Shelter!

A Level 2 nightmare cannot go from one dream world to another out of thin air. It can only be achieved through the shelter established by the maintainer, including coming from the dream world to the material world. Does this mean that the shelter is the only exception to breaking the pollution source limit of the dream world?

"And there is one more point, if this alchemy world is also a real world, then now... where are they?" Wu Pifu asked this question. He had some guesses in his heart, but these guesses were too shocking, so he just shook his head silently and suppressed all these mysteries for the time being.

"If the content mentioned in this important information is all true, this can roughly determine the strongest combat power of a level dream world, the most terrifying nightmare strength... at least it can be roughly estimated."

Wu Pifu thought silently, and suddenly said: "Main Brain, open the map of Z Large Area 6123 Small Area."

Immediately, the light and shadow fell, forming a light and shadow map in front of Wu Pifu. Wu Pifu looked at this extremely complex map, similar to a maze, and said: "Display my location, display the location of the surrounding blockade walls, and display the locations of all surrounding restaurants, maintenance bases, medical bases, weapon depots, entertainment facilities, etc."

Immediately, various marks of different colors and shapes appeared on the map, among which his location was indicated by high brightness, and other buildings also had text remarks.

Wu Pifu looked for a long time, confirmed the medical base area he chose again and again, and then walked toward a certain position of the sleep cabin.

This area only had two isolation walls. One isolation wall connected the medical base and this sleep cabin room, and the other isolation wall was the passage from the medical base to a large square outside, and that large square belonged to... 6122 area!

"Pink Snake?"

Wu Pifu stood in front of a metal wall in the sleep cabin room. He turned his head and said to Jiu Jiu: "I don't know what kind of monster is behind this, but since there is an isolation wall, there must be a monster behind it. According to the seniors, the larger the area blocked by the isolation wall, the stronger the monster. This medical base has a small closed space, and this is the only public facility, so the monster shouldn't be outrageously strong. When the battle breaks out in a while, you hide far away, you know?"

Jiu Jiu jumped and chirped non-stop, and then flew from his shoulder to a sleep cabin in the distance to stay.

Wu Pifu turned his head again and said: "Main Brain."

"Open the isolation wall in front!"
