Chapter 66

The war... seems to have stopped temporarily. . .

However, this silence is more terrifying than war for all the virtual people.

In the originally safe urban area, there are now giant cube-shaped warships floating around. Between the buildings, the wreckage of the phantom troops is still sleeping there, but no phantoms dare to approach that place, only dozens of kilometers away. The reconnaissance remote control machine and soldiers are observing the dynamics inside...

As the general said, the black metal did not immediately attack the nearby cities. They seemed to plan to occupy this place first, and a black metal that looked like a vine was slowly increasing on the ground.

A large number of cones are moving back and forth on the ground, and they are not doing collection work this time, but as if they are building something, sticking a lot of debris on those buildings, some buildings have become completely black because of this. There are also a lot of strange-shaped bumps, and I can't see what they are...

At the time of the initial attack, although the flash destroyed the entire phantom army, some buildings were hardly affected, so the cone planned to change the appearance of these buildings.

What kind of invasion are they planning to launch?

The pom-poms were in the distant sky, watching everything they were slowly unfolding, Lin felt that they should still have more teleportation energy hidden, and possibly more troops to come in.

And the virtual people are also preparing. A large number of scouts and remote control machines are constantly observing this area. Although the troops have failed, the news has not been spread, so the emotions of the virtual people are still be in a stable state.

The general is now trying to get aid from other countries. Although there are still many troops here. But it obviously doesn't want to waste its troops anymore...

It gave command to multiple commanders and captains of its own subordinates. He himself went to other countries to conduct meetings.

There are many military ranks of different levels in the virtual army, but it is troublesome, so Lin translates these ranks into simple words such as generals, captains, and commanders.

And among these captains and commanders, I don't know if there are any black metal groups mixed in.

Black metal groups are much larger than previously thought, and most importantly, they usually don't reveal their actions...

These phantoms who joined the Black Metal Corps. They are usually well hidden, and their emotional changes are not much different from ordinary virtual people, and they will not appear crazy or the like.

This is also what Lin is currently researching.

Because these imaginary people should have a special energy body in their brains, Lin felt that this kind of creature could be called 'brain spirit' first.

Maybe when the Void Bus invaded the Void Cue Ball, there was this kind of 'brain spirit' mixed in. They may be the main species of black metal, but Lin thinks that there may be high-ranking creatures in it.

However, they were the strangest creatures Lynn had ever seen.

But in fact. It is somewhat similar to the 'dream creatures' made by Lin, such as those creatures that have their own consciousness. Like heroes, and demons.

But like the brave, Lin needs to create a 'sub-brain' attached to the dream brain to place its thoughts and store will when it enters the dream.

There are also dragons such as Susumi and Liddell who were preserved by Lin, and they are in a similar state.

Although their thoughts can be separated from the original brain, they need another brain to "place", and the "brain spirit" that Lin sees here has different characteristics.

They don't need a brain to maintain their existence, so they can hack into another creature's brain and communicate with that creature.

Those members of the black metal group probably have a "brain spirit" in their brains, telling them what to do and how to do it.

However, the parasitic effect of the 'brain spirit' has little effect on the brain of this imaginary citizen, and it can be said that it has almost no effect.

Therefore, the virtual people themselves will not go crazy because of this, and there will be no other abnormal state of nerves. Lin thinks this is necessary. If the mentality is abnormal, some people who were originally high-level executives of a certain company, or captains of a certain company. The phantoms with the commander may be replaced as a result, and insane phantoms are not qualified for high-level positions, so it is very important to keep these phantoms mentally intact.

'Brain Spirit' purely uses direct communication to command the phantoms, rather than directly controlling the cranial nerves or something, so this has little effect on the phantoms' cranial nerves, but because there is always something in the brain talking to him It may also cause madness, so Lin believes that 'brain spirit' also has some kind of effect to soothe the emotions of the virtual people.

Just like a general manager, it usually looks normal, and it only looks crazy when it communicates with Brain Spirit.

However, this gentler control method also makes the control power of the 'brain spirit' weaker, so there will be traitors among the imaginary people controlled by them, and the general manager can be used as an example.

Because the manager slowly disbelieved the words of 'Brain Spirit', it finally betrayed them. After that, 'Brain Spirit' kept talking to it in its mind, trying to make it change its mind, but it was useless.

To be honest, it's fortunate that the headmaster betrayed, because it is the key player in charge of teleportation. If it hadn't betrayed Black Metal, the Void's cue ball would have long since been invaded.

And Lin, now I plan to grab a 'brain spirit' to study it.

This is also the reason why Lin brought out the spy head.

Now, Pom Pom has taken the spy's head to a city near the ruins and is planning to study it.

Although the research has not yet started, Lin has some guesses.

How do things like 'brain spirit' reproduce? Looking at them like a cloud of light, it feels like they can be split into many individuals at will.

However, Lin feels that it is not that simple. Although it looks like a mass of energy, it may contain many complex things, the most important of which is 'consciousness'.

Lin also doesn't know how consciousness is formed, but a conscious one can definitely be called a creature, no matter what form it is.

Lin felt that this was the reason why they caught Xumin's cubs and raised them...

The thorn they stabbed on the head of the Voidlings should have been used to breed something.

And what this thorn cultivates can be manifested in dreams, and it looks like a small ball of light.

Could this be the larvae of 'Brain Spirit'? (To be continued..)
