Chapter 402 The Darkness After the Highlight

When Shen Bei was advancing towards the golden tree with the thought of whether he could pick up treasure, he had just stepped into the pool of bones.

The surrounding space began to distort and accelerate.

That's right!

In Shen Bei's eyes, everything around him began to accelerate.

It's like a wormhole traveling through space.

Whether it is time or space, they are all stretched into thin lines and flow through quickly.

This feeling is very similar to the visual effect produced by spaceships performing space jumps in science fiction blockbusters.

But this abnormality only lasted for a few breaths and then disappeared.

Shen Bei opened his eyes again and looked around.

The valley that was once shrouded in mist has disappeared.

Instead, there is a desolate wilderness.

The greenery also disappeared, the surrounding trees collapsed and died, and only weeds were still growing.

Some rocks broke apart, causing landslides.

This scene is completely integrated into the wilderness, and both the atmosphere and scenery are no different from other places in the wilderness.

Shen Bei felt as if time had stagnated here due to the influence of the evil golden tree, and the accumulated hundreds of years had passed in an instant.

Everything changes with the passage of time.

"I feel comfortable..."

Shen Bei would naturally think that the time accumulated here was like a reservoir opening to release floodwaters, synchronized with the time in the wilderness.

The familiar environment made Shen Bei feel more at ease.

The wilderness does not welcome outsiders.

At the same time, in the northwest corner of Shenbei, there is a faint entrance to a military base hidden among the rocks.

After Shen Bei took a look at the location, he continued to move towards the place where the evil golden tree species was.

Under the rapidly flowing speed of time, this evil seed has been buried underground.

Fortunately, Shen Bei had mining arm armor.

Mining efficiency is extremely high.

Not to mention digging out the evil seeds several meters deep.

A moment's work.

A circular hole was dug.

The sunlight shines in.

Shen Bei was shocked!

In the small round pit, blue light gathered, and there were almost thousands of high-level crystal source cores!

"Can a single evil seed produce so many crystal cores?"

Shen Bei widened his eyes exaggeratedly.

And it is an advanced gold source core!

“Isn’t this too cool?”

Shen Bei took a deep breath to calm his shocked mood.

What a windfall!

Isn’t this much better than killing ferocious beasts?

Shen Bei didn't even have to bend down to pick it up.

With a wave of his hand, he ordered the Tiangong to launch a super-dimensional beam of light to absorb all the crystal source cores.

Watching one crystal source core after another being sucked into the sky.

Shen Bei had a comfortable and satisfied look.

These crystal source cores alone are enough to sustain himself and the Tiangong for a long time.

Thinking of energy, Shen Bei suddenly asked, "Can you design an energy improvement plan?"

Lingxi Zhiling's voice soon came: "Unfortunately, when Tiangong was first designed, it was not considered to use other energy sources for propulsion."

Shen Bei: ???

This sentence almost broke Shen Bei's defense!

What! ! !

The energy system cannot be replaced?

What a joke!

Can this thing be fixed?

Shen Bei said in a low voice: "I need an explanation. Why can't we replace other energy sources? In the old days, cars could be modified to be electric or pneumatic!"

"The example you gave is completely inapplicable to the Tiangong spacecraft, which is much more complicated than a car."

Lingxi Zhiling said again: "First of all, this is an aircraft with a more complex integrated system. It is essentially incomparable."

"Furthermore, I scanned all parts of the Tiangong and came to the conclusion that in its initial stages, the Tiangong was a spacecraft built based on the crystal source core."

"Whether it's the ammunition production line or the various functions within, the energy for the weapon system comes from the Crystal Source Core."

"If we force a change in energy, it means that all functions will be scrapped, and it will take a long time to rebuild and adapt to other energy supplies."

"Instead of doing this, it would be more convenient and quicker to rebuild a flying machine."

After hearing this, the corners of Shen Bei's mouth twitched violently.

I originally thought I wanted to change my energy source.

It's as easy as changing the engine.

The result was that I took it for granted.

According to Lingxi Zhiling, it is like a newly built building. It is absolutely impossible to temporarily change the blueprint and turn it into a gymnasium.

Might as well tear it down and rebuild it...

This made Shen Bei feel a little awkward.

Although things like crystal source cores are everywhere.

But after all, there is a limit in quantity.

And, more importantly, it is a fatal crisis.

That is the current energy overflow on Earth, caused by the Shadow Immortal.

Most of the ferocious beasts scattered across the wilderness are also imprisoned on the Shadow Immortal.

Who knows whether the Shadow Immortal has a recycling function.

Once these energies are recovered, Tiangong will be scrapped!

Shen Bei pondered for a moment and came up with an incredible answer: "The fate of Tiangong is predetermined. It will definitely reach its peak for a period of time, and then fade away as its energy source is exhausted."

However, despite the bleak outlook, Shen Bei's mentality has not changed at all.

For Shen Bei, human life span is limited and has not increased much by entering the world of refugees.

The cell telomeres did not change much.

Do everything you should do in your lifetime.

As for the rest, it’s none of your business as the flood after death.

If we think too much and foresee our inevitable death, human existence will be worth less than a grain of sand compared to the width of the universe.

If you keep going on like this, are you still going to survive?

"If it can't be changed, then forget it. It doesn't matter!" Shen Bei said.

Accepting reality is a manifestation of self-awareness.

Shen Bei never worried about this.

No one knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident.

Lingxi Zhiling responded, "I'm sorry, I can't understand your emotions. If you want to prolong your consciousness, you can try to develop a multifunctional brain-computer and upload your consciousness to achieve immortality."

Shen Bei waved his hand: "I reject your proposal. Birth, aging, sickness and death are the true meaning of human beings."

"That's completely meaningless." Lingxi Zhiling retorted, "I've deduced the best path forward for humanity. Uploading consciousness and using a mechanical prosthesis are the only way out. Being a superpower is meaningless in the face of time."

"On the contrary, it is the Church of Almighty God that is subtly developing in this direction."

Shen Bei shook his head: "Go your own way."

"Okay." Lingxi Zhiling didn't say much.

Not a moment.

All the crystal source cores left behind by the evil golden tree were sucked into the Tiangong.

Shen Bei was just about to leave and go to the military base to take a look.

Suddenly.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a golden ball in the pit.

"Huh? What is this?"

Shen Bei jumped into the pit and picked it up.

The shape of this sphere is familiar to everyone.

Shen Bei took out another ball from his backpack.
