Pollution throughout the territory - #213 - Chapter 210 The truth about pollution
Xia Ren thought of a bird named cuckoo.
The cuckoo bird will lay its eggs in the nests of other birds, and push all the remaining eggs out of the nest and break them, forcing the original owner of the nest to lay eggs again, and the hatching time of the newly laid eggs will definitely be slower than Little cuckoo’s.
When the little cuckoo hatches, it will inherit the habits in its genes and push the other eggs in the same nest out of the nest again, so that it can enjoy the exclusive care of its adoptive relatives.
This must be the case for Zhang Xiang. He is not the biological son of Zhang Hong and his wife. Their real child may have met with something unexpected long ago.
Sure enough, Liu Xiuxiu’s next answer also verified his idea.
“Most ghoul babies are brought into human families by wizards who have signed contracts. They will quietly replace the original babies in the family, discard them, or sacrifice them. The Foundation still doesn’t know Why do they frequently hold sacrificial rituals? Maybe just to have more communication with the abyss. There is also news that the human children taken away will be raised by ghouls and become ghouls when they grow up, but there is no Facts can prove whether this news is true or false.”
“Sometimes, wizards or witches will not do it themselves. They will use human traffickers to sell ghoul babies to families in need. Occasionally, they will buy some human babies from human traffickers for unknown uses.”
“Human traffickers…”
Xia Ren suddenly thought of something and looked at Liu Xiuxiu.
Liu Xiuxiu also nodded towards him and said, “I just thought that Chen Qiwei might know more information.”
“useless.”
Xia Ren rubbed his temples with a distressed expression and said: “Zhang Xiang called his companions before he died. The seventh witch must have known about his death. Maybe all the clues will be cut off before tonight. But… …To be on the safe side, let’s go take a look tomorrow.”
This was the closest he had come to completing the hunt for the ghoul, but unfortunately it was a cub.
After this time passes, it will probably be even harder to meet a ghoul again. This will again be an elusive task.
It’s just that ticket… I always feel that there is some conspiracy in the system, otherwise it would be too strange, just like a leave request, and I would not be able to understand its purpose until time passes.
“By the way, do you know about the Dark Ritual?”
“Dark Ceremony?”
Liu Xiuxiu tilted her head and looked confused, “I haven’t heard of it. But I can check it for you. If it is related to ghouls, I should have this authority.”
“Let’s talk about this later.”
Xia Ren did not insist and asked instead: “What’s going on with wizards and witches? I remember that the only ones who can maintain human form after being polluted are apostles? Are all the members of the Wizards Alliance apostles?”
That would be a bit too scary.
“Xia Ren, I think you have a misunderstanding about pollution.”
Liu Xiuxiu said seriously: “Not all human beings are bound to be distorted by pollution. If you think about it carefully, if pollution is a poison that is instantaneous to death, then all investigators will become disposable consumables, and the Foundation will have long ago It ceases to exist.”
“But aren’t you resistant to pollution…”
Speaking of this, Xia Ren suddenly paused.
He vaguely felt something was wrong, but for a moment he couldn’t remember what went wrong.
It was about the truth about pollution. Upon hearing this question, Qin Yun also raised all her spirits.
Liu Xiuxiu lowered his head and thought for a moment, as if he was considering the words. After a full minute, he decided to tell the secret: “Pollution is not something that can be transmitted like viruses. Although it sounds unbelievable, the fact is In this way, when the foundation was first established, one of the founders mentioned that pollution is knowledge.
It is knowledge that humans cannot understand and far exceeds the computing power of the brain! “
“Knowledge……”
Xia Ren chewed this word over and over in his mind, feeling that a door in his mind opened a gap and light leaked out.
Liu Xiuxiu continued: “This is actually not difficult to understand. Just like in the early days of the establishment of the Supreme Alliance Government, astronomy gradually developed and expanded. A large number of astronomers who believed in the geocentric theory committed suicide in despair after learning that the earth was just a drop in the ocean in the universe. Human beings are very fragile. Once certain knowledge beyond imagination is revealed in front of us, it will cause us to collapse. What’s more, according to the founder, pollution actually represents the most original knowledge of the universe. I can only After a superficial understanding, as for why infected bodies and aberrant bodies appear, it is a more complicated process.”
“We investigators can be immune to the impact of pollution to a certain extent. The essence is not to fight against pollution, but that we can accept part of the pollution.”
After listening blankly, Xia Ren was still immersed in Liu Xiuxiu’s words and couldn’t extricate himself.
Pollution is knowledge.
He seemed to understand something, but also seemed to understand nothing.
The race of the Ancients crossed the vast universe and came to the Blue Star from a very far away place. They created the Shoggoths, and part of the Shoggoths gave rise to the living creatures on earth today. Therefore, to humans, the Ancients Can race be considered the creator?
There is no way to understand, no way to look directly at the Creator.
The real… God!
You will collapse when you see it because you cannot understand it, but what if humans can understand it?
This bold idea popped into his mind.
Then, while containing the Rootless Water, the green river he had glimpsed appeared in front of him in the boundless black space.
That river is not water, but is made up of countless small fluorescent insects. It seems to have been flowing from eternity, and until now, it is unknown where it is going.
——Based on the description of Rootless Water, that river is most likely the River Styx.
——The water used by the Foundation to eliminate pollution is called dark water.
——Zhao Mingyue sat by the River Styx.
——There is a terrifying huge shadow in the River Styx.
——The system asked him to look for Zhao Mingyue.
——Rootless Water possesses Styx induction.
——Huang Qiuyuan asked him what he had done to Zhao Mingyue.
Several seemingly unconnected clues converged together, like bubbles in boiling water, appearing one after another and disappearing quickly, leaving him elusive.
Suddenly, memories that he had neglected emerged, and Zhang Xiang’s loud shout before his death sounded like thunder in his ears:
“You are the descendant of the one in the deep sea!”
deep sea,
tentacle,
the sound of the tide,
The rising city,
And when I first came out of the hospital, there was that tentacled creature that was lingering between the buildings, as if it was looking for something!
“The world is going to end!”
Is it threatening me, reminding me, or trying to stop me.
There are cracks in the memory, and the events of that afternoon are blurry.
He couldn’t remember Zhao Mingyue’s helpless tone when she said this, or whether it was full of resentment.
He doesn’t know whether the system is a boost for him or a shackle that limits him.
My parents were infertile, so how did I get through the summer, autumn and winter of adoption?
Is it Zhang Xiang? Is it a cub?
Why do I have no memory of Zhao Mingyue?
I can’t figure it out, it’s so uncomfortable!
Suddenly, something seemed to interrupt his thinking, and the door that had opened a gap suddenly closed!
In front of Xia Ren, the Styx River appeared again.
In the living room, Liu Xiuxiu and Qin Yun did not dare to express their anger and looked at Xia Ren with horrified eyes.
Above his head, the tentacles twisted painfully, as if they were fighting against something, exuding frightening power.
Lily tilted her head and felt a hint of familiarity from the tentacles.
Where has she seen it.
However, that was a long, long time ago, so long that no memory remains in her heart.
Xia Ren’s eyes were deep, his head lowered, his eyes reflected green light.
“Humans are all bugs…”
