Chapter 39: Lost Civilization and Opening the Isolation Wall!

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

This attitude undoubtedly made Jiu Jiu very happy. She flew to 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 pollution source. With our world as the reality anchor, the pollution characteristic is zero, that is, our reality does not possess any pollution, unless it is the pollution brought by things from below. And the first layer down, the pollution is digitally displayed as one to one hundred, the second layer is one hundred to one thousand...' This is the important information that 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 the paper, and at the same time tilted her head to look at him.

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

Jiu Jiu chirped and made a fuss again. Wu Pifu smiled and said: "You are the one who sleeps deeply, like a pig, sleeping after eating, and only waking up after sleeping for most of the day..."

Jiu Jiu was furious, hit his face directly, and then began to peck at his forehead.

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

"Confirm 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 0.5 level..."

"This information pollution has been eliminated, comprehensive judgment, there is 68% information loss... whether to continue playing the content inside?"

Wu Pifu's face was a bit awkward. He really didn't expect that after a bit of information pollution elimination, only 32% of the information was left to watch. 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 a bit strange. Everywhere were square metal blocks, and the participants either sat on the metal blocks or stood on the metal blocks, and these metal blocks were all suspended 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-like existences, all kinds of more than forty, as if a group of monsters and people 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 sent back by 320,000 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. It does not refer to various radiation, biology, or meme-like infectious sources, but refers to ******..."

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

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

Someone took the lead, and the other existences naturally did not 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 several creatures suspended in the air, with fire, thunder, light, and other abnormalities on their bodies between flicking fingers. Although they could be explained by scientific instruments, this looked like supernatural power no matter how you looked at it.

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

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 in the field, and the giant semi-mechanical life only had half of its body left, and its whole body was sparking.

"It's just a video, why would it be like this, why would there be 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 whole picture ended, and it 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 the eyes of the two.

One of them came from the 21st century. Although there were computers and mobile phones, this immersive full-scene image was the first time to see it. And Jiu Jiu came from the Song Dynasty in ancient times, let alone seeing all this.

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

Jiu Jiu chirped a little 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 the rooms with those entertainment facilities in the future, you can see many good movies and animations."

Jiu Jiu flew to 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 in the image, if the picture in the image is in the real world, then the one to one hundred pollution source world is equivalent to baseline reality 0.9, and the one hundred to one thousand pollution source world is equivalent to baseline reality 0.8... then this alchemy civilization explored to the baseline reality 0.4 world, and then encountered great terror when exploring the baseline reality 0.3 world. Even the returned image about this terror caused their large-scale death and damage... it's simply terrifying."

Wu Pifu was secretly horrified 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 harm, a lot of useful information was also obtained, for example... pollution source digitization and standardization.

The pollution source of baseline reality 0.9 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 just that, the real key is... is it limited that the pollution source is only one to one hundred?

"Wusheng Mother cannot go from Vacuum Hometown to the 0.9 world, otherwise how could I still have my life now? But there are exceptions. If a second-level nightmare penetrates from a low-level dream world to a high-level dream world, its strength will not be reduced at all. What does this rely on to achieve?"

Wu Pifu carefully pondered the connection of all this.

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

A second-level nightmare cannot go from one dream world to another out of thin air. Only through the shelter established by maintenance personnel can it be achieved, 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 sentence. 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 in the bottom of his heart.

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

Wu Pifu pondered silently. He suddenly said: "Main Brain, open the map of Z large area 6123 small area."

Suddenly, 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 isolation walls, display the locations of all surrounding restaurants, maintenance bases, medical bases, armories, entertainment facilities, etc."

Suddenly, various colors and shapes of marks 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 had chosen again and again, and then walked toward a certain location in the sleep pod.

This area has only two isolation walls, one isolation wall connects the medical base and this sleep pod room, and the other isolation wall is the passage from the medical base to a large square outside, and that large square belongs to... 6122 area!

"Pink snake?"

Wu Pifu stood in front of a metal wall in the sleep pod 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 that exists. This medical base has a small enclosed space, and this is the only public facility, so the monster shouldn't be outrageously strong. When the battle breaks out later, you hide far away, do you know?"

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

Only then did Wu Pifu turn his head again, and at the same time said: "Main Brain."

"Open the isolation wall in front!"
