Chapter 2061: Death Constantly Accompanies

s language is somewhat confused, Klein painfully grips the handrail:

「Such black tower instances are like the fleets the Empire dispatched during the Age of Exploration, conducting experiments at sea to prevent contaminating the homeland. Another purpose is to drift with the currents, exploring resources of other worlds! 」

「If luck lands us on a nascent 'continent' with few strong beings, those oracle wizards will send armies to plunder resources! 」

「This actually isn't important! It doesn't matter! Our resources here aren't exactly abundant, and those divine domain wizards may not even look upon them. But the problem lies with the amoeba worms! 」

「These amoeba worms have attracted the demons' attention! 」

「Amoeba worms? 」

Lin An instinctively echoed the question, but quickly guessed a possibility.

「Faith? Are amoeba worms important? Do they consider this thing extremely valuable? 」

「That's right. 」

Klein nodded heavily:

「I won't go into the past; Lin An, you just need to know that the wizard civilization is actually also walking the faith path. 」

「The things condensed by the fanatics here have been recorded, causing the higher world receiving the information to notice us. Even if the value of the amoeba worms isn't that great, I don't know how much attention they've drawn! 」

「But even just a small team would be a huge disaster for us! 」

「The demons' methods are beyond your imagination! 」

As the words fell, Lin An looked at Klein, whose face showed fear, and his heart sank instantly.

I see, but the wizard civilization is also walking the faith path? He hadn't thought of that.

Not dwelling on that, Lin An bluntly asked in a low voice:

「How strong is a small team roughly? 」

「Also, Klein. If we cooperate with them, would they be willing? You should understand my meaning; after all, we belong to another world, our world also has top-tier civilization, we have Overseers. If they want to invade, don't they need to consider gains and losses? 」

Saying this, Lin An frowned, feeling that Klein seemed to be hiding something, his fear of the wizard civilization already reaching an abnormal level.

That is, after all, Klein's mother civilization...

The stronger a civilization, the more rational it should be.

However, contrary to Lin An's expectations, upon hearing his question, Klein's face turned even paler:

「Cooperation is impossible. 」

「Lin An, you don't understand. You haven't truly seen those wizards; you don't know what they really are! 」

「They are true monsters! True demons! Their cruelty and distortion are more terrifying than any disaster! Although I am of the same kin as them, I am not a wizard! 」

「Do you still remember those specimens you saw? Do you still remember those records? 」

「Those wizards, upon encountering unknown life, will use every means to analyze them! Enslave them! 」

「They will gouge out your eyes and stuff them into your brain just to study your reaction when you see neural activity! They will fuse two embryos together during development to see if they can grow a monster with two heads, one on top and one below! 」

「Wizards! They are a group of researchers with extreme thinking! They will use every means you cannot even imagine to study you! 」

「If they get their hands on you, it's a fate worse than death! Your civilization, your race, everything you cherish will suffer the most brutal, inhumane torment! 」

「They refuse any cooperation! In their eyes, there is no life; all life is merely research material! Would you cooperate with research material?! 」

As if recalling the wizards he had seen, Klein trembled all over, a shudder rising from the depths of his soul!

If we say most life, the vast majority of civilizations have basic moral notions, a bottom line.

That wizard civilization is a group of lunatics who have extinguished humanity! Their sole idea for resisting the apocalypse is to be even more cruel than the apocalypse!

One can imagine, a single twisted monster is already terrifying enough; a group, an entire world of lunatics gathered together—what horror would that be!

Klein struggled to calm his inner fear, striving not to lose composure.

The linguistic description is pale; even though wizards are the pillar of their civilization, in Klein's heart they are a group of sinister, deceitful, extremely cold-hearted and extremely cruel monsters! He fundamentally does not want any contact with them, otherwise he wouldn't have been hiding here all this time!

「As for strength.. 」

「Wizards who can descend here via coordinates are at least Holy Domain wizards. According to my past experience, there will probably be seven or eight wizards of sixth rank or higher! 」

「Lin An! Don't think this strength is nothing; perhaps the one behind you can handle it. 」

「The strength of a Holy Domain wizard isn't just themselves; each Holy Domain wizard has their own battle sequence! Some have over a million-strong biological army! Some have an energy fortress, a superweapon akin to a star‑killing ship! 」

「Moreover, these Holy Domain wizards also have Body System powerhouses protecting them! 」

「You can understand it as each wizard being a Special Civilization; their individual war potential is enough to sweep a star domain! 」

Saying this, Klein felt somewhat desperate.

Although he hates wizards, he must admit that the wizard civilization is the most perfect civilization in his cognition.

Endless war potential, boundless wisdom sharing! Combined with the utmost cruelty, in many civilizations' mouths, the wizard civilization is even considered a kind of apocalypse!

「Seven or eight sixth rank? 」

「Combined combat power, roughly equivalent to a double‑digit number of sixth rank? 」

「And the time? When might they roughly find this place? 」

A sudden pressure descended; Lin An also instantly felt it thorny. However, Klein might not know—upon hearing this, his heart actually relaxed a bit.

According to the strength gap per level, the Shen Yuan corpse should be able to handle this small team.

Of course, it's best not to face them if possible; when the Shen Yuan corpse acts, Lin An can imagine how dire the situation will have become by then.

Moreover..

(As Klein said, the nature of the wizard civilization is extremely twisted. With no possibility of negotiation or compromise, that means even if I resolve this, other wizards will still descend later.)

An innocent man bears no guilt, but he who hides a jade incurs blame.

Thinking of this, Lin An could also understand why Klein was so desperate.

Seeing Lin An seemingly still pondering whether there's a way to stop the opponent, Klein's face grew complex, and he couldn't help but become anxious:

「Lin An, don't keep thinking about whether there are other ways! 」

「In terms of time, if it were before, it could appear at any moment! Now the situation is slightly better; the energy you brought is enough for me to operate the black tower's shift once. 」

If you insist on dragging it out, it'll be about one month, at most not exceeding two months! That little time isn't enough for you to grow! Not to mention you growing up, even if you become Seventh Stage Eighth Stage, it's still not as good as seeking help from the Overseer!

The Wizard Civilization absolutely cannot be confronted head-on! All we can do is flee! Only hide!

After his words fell, Klein, somewhat emotionally excited, pulled Lin An, only thinking of having Lin An immediately go find the Overseer! Although hope is also a bit slim, wanting to hide this matter is also a great burden for the Overseer.

But Klein believes that the Overseer behind Lin An will surely understand the seriousness of the problem! Taking action is not impossible!

He actually still has something he hasn't told Lin An.

That is, compared to the Wizard Civilization's greed for the Amoeba Worm, Lin An's own worth is the greatest!

He has no doubt that once those lunatics discover Lin An, they will inevitably descend with tenfold, hundredfold power to hunt down Lin An!

In the brief silence, seeing Klein's anxious gaze, Lin An's heart suddenly gave a bitter smile.

He knows what Klein said is correct.

But the problem is.

He can't get in touch with 77.

"One to two months? Double-digit Sixth Stage, Wizard Civilization?"

"How strong do I need to be to stop all this? How far must I go to hold out until 77 returns?"

Lin An subconsciously looked upward, silent without sound.

At this moment, he only felt that fate had played a huge joke on him.

This seems to be another unsolvable dead end.
