After You Huan woke up, he immediately checked what the knowledge given to him by the last great being who could not be looked at was for.
Located in the middle layer, the main body, which was originally in a semi-dormant state, opened its eyes, and red and blue lights lit up.
When he observed the world with his [True Eyes], he immediately realized the changes in himself.
Under the steel canopy of the middle level, the bustling crowd, unaware of the darkness of the lower level they yearn for, travels back and forth on the road with flashing virtual lights.
This time, he was able to penetrate the virtual data covering their bodies and easily see the information recorded in their bodies.
From this body's perspective, everything is information and a carrier of information.
What they ate today and where they went are all recorded in their skin, which is wrapped with a lot of information, just like the history of the browser.
In a flash, he recorded all the experiences of everyone in Area C for the day!
This even included deeper information at the mental level, such as emotional information.
It flows smoothly without any lag.
He looked inward and found that he had performed another software upgrade without realizing it.
This was accomplished naturally after the knowledge given to him by the great being merged with himself.
Simply put, this knowledge talks about how to "optimize action efficiency", which has improved all the algorithms in his body to a certain extent.
Therefore, it would be easy for him to obtain information about a huge range and a huge number of real people at the same time.
And that's not all…
He suddenly seemed to sense something and looked up.
The next moment, his body instantly decomposed on the spot, passed through the game frame of "Outside the Ark", and entered the upper level.
At this time, on the upper level, in a medium-sized camp, several people with obvious mutant characteristics were standing with two monsters.
These two monsters are from a race that evolved from mutations of the upper level, and they look like human-like lizards.
People call them simply and crudely, lizard people.
Their intelligence level is higher than that of surface people. They obtained and repaired a large number of old-era technologies from surface ruins and built an orderly Lizardman Kingdom.
These arrogant monsters generally despise humans with lower IQs than themselves, but at the moment they are standing with the "NPC" upper class with serious expressions.
Everyone looked at a pointed-roof building that emerged from the soil in the dim underground space of the camp.
"Are you sure this is an energy tower?" The leader among the upper class was Ghost Snake, the second-in-command of the Hope Base NPC, and she asked cautiously.
"Of course, of course." The Lizardman representative rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue and said in fluent human language, "Our best engineers have already gone in to take a look."
"So, this is the third one so far..." Ghost Snake muttered.
"You..." the lizard man said with his arms folded, "Apart from the one in the hands of that underground female, are you sure you can control the second and third towers?"
"We have only taken a step forward based on our original crude operations," Ghost Snake corrected, "but believe us, we have made the two towers powerful enough to destroy the entire underground level."
"Hmm..." The lizard man rolled one eye and glanced at her, while the other eye was fixed firmly on the top of the energy tower that emerged from the ground.
"Although I don't trust you, since the angels have chosen to cooperate, then that's fine."
"But..." It stuck out its tongue and licked its eyeball, then continued in a matter-of-fact tone, "When the energy tower is operated, our engineers must be present."
"No!" Ghost Snake flatly refused.
Lizardmen have a higher technological level than humans in all aspects.
After finally surpassing them in controlling the energy tower, she could let the aliens enter the energy tower and steal the technology to control the energy tower?
Upon hearing this, the lizard man just said coldly: "To put it bluntly, we don't believe that you, a stupid species, can think of any good way to control the energy tower."
"Attacking the underground is a matter of life and death. We must..."
Representatives of the two tribes stood in front of the energy tower and engaged in a heated debate, and finally reached an agreement that was barely acceptable to both sides.
"I will tell my people to quarantine this place under the pretext of discovering a high radiation area."
After Ghost Snake finished talking about the main topic of today, he paused and asked:
"What prophecy did your astrologer give you?" The situation was so serious that these proud lizardmen were willing to humble themselves and choose to almost fully cooperate with the actions of humans.
"..." The Lizardman representative was silent for a while, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if I tell you about this prophecy."
"The most outstanding astronomers in the palace made a collective calculation and finally predicted that... the world we live in will be destroyed within ten years."
"destroy..."
"Yes, total destruction, no way to survive..."
After saying that, the Lizardman turned and left the camp, leaving the Ghost Snake standing there with a serious expression.
Lizardman astronomers have extremely high comprehensive attainments in natural sciences, and their predictions have never been wrong.
"The world we live in" refers only to the surface? Or does it also include the underground that they plan to attack?
Ghost Snake is not afraid of destruction, what she is worried about is if it refers to the latter...
"Obviously... he should be underground. Will he be destroyed because of the world? Will he be destroyed by our attack?"
The words were unspoken, but the message was engraved on her.
A pair of red eyes that she couldn't see saw her inner thoughts.
This strong upper-class woman once had a son.
Her son was almost dead at birth, but she took the risk and fed him the flesh and blood of monsters, which saved him from death.
But one day, her infant son disappeared.
Eyes in the Dark - You Huan knew where her son was.
——In the middle-level nursery, by observing their physical information, it can be seen that her son is Qu Tongming, whom You Huan had seen before.
The king of children in the orphanage in Area C.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
This woman knew a little about the middle level, so she vaguely guessed that her son was in the middle level.
She actively participated in the attack plan, partly because she wanted to enter the middle level to find her son and take revenge on the culprit who stole her son.
The other part is out of her sense of responsibility.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to survive on the surface, and she wants to lead people to find a better home.
You Huan then looked at the energy tower buried underground.
This is the second energy tower found by the alliance of NPCs and monsters, and the third known one.
The only energy tower known to the player to have been found and repaired is the one at Hope Base.
Unbeknownst to them, the "game characters" had repaired two more towers.
The repair basically uses the newly developed repair technology of the Lizardmen.
But the control technology... comes from the upper class.
This sparked some interest in him.
If I am not mistaken, these energy towers that once stood on the surface and used a different operating system from other ruins are buildings from the Dream City.
How do the surface survivors of this world control them?
The concerned eyes followed the movement of the ghost snake.
Soon, Guishe started an internal meeting among the upper echelons.
After discussing some things about the energy tower, someone suddenly brought up another topic:
"How should we deal with the 'shadow'?"
Here it comes.
You Huan, who was observing secretly, focused his attention.
When he was in the middle level just now, he had a feeling that something concerning himself would happen at the upper level.
In other words, some algorithms in his body calculated that there was a high probability that an event related to him would happen next at the upper level.
This almost prophetic sensing ability is also obtained after completing the software upgrade by obtaining the knowledge of the great existence.
Thinking of the god from Fenyu, he felt a headache again.
The second god besides God who met him in the dream... told him that Joshua had some relationship with Him, and that's why he paid attention to him.
He made a request of him.
Of course, He could have chosen not to fulfill this request. He seemed generous.
He still needs to think about this matter carefully...
Turn your attention back to the upper class.
When someone mentioned the term "shadow", someone immediately said with fear:
"That monster is a loner. The last time it came to Hope Base, it seemed to be here specifically to sabotage our plans. This unstable factor must be resolved as soon as possible!"
"I agree!" Many people immediately echoed this.
However, before the heated discussion came to an end, large spots of light suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes as if the screen was distorted.
