Chapter 166: Chapter 137 Ball of Life_1
After defeating the Queen k and killing the three Hell Priests, the montum of the demons began to weaken. The group was montarily bereft of any leads, but for Duanmu Huai… this wasn’t a problem.
Was the Queen k captured in vain?
In fact, right after capturing the Queen k, Duanmu Huai tossed her directly to the Night Guards, and then issued an order.
“Squeeze everything out of her brain.”
Technologies such as reading mories and probing the brain were possessed by the Imperial and the Night Guards, and the k Tribe had similar technology. In fact, the k Tribe had taught this technology to the Yajinians, but they never thought that the latter would use this technology to deal with themselves.
The Night Guard naturally despised the Queen k, who had betrayed their tribe. As for the treatnt she would receive… hmm, considering her mantis-like face, tentacle-like lower body and over ten-ter height, she was obviously not suitable for such “Noble Queen Reduced to Prisoner.MP4” materials.
But whether there would be other bloody and violent scenes was hard to say.
Duanmu Huai was not concerned.
anwhile, the Night Guards were very efficient, quickly extracting a large amount of intelligence from Queen k’s brain.
When Duanmu Huai saw these revelations, he was quite surprised, these secrets were too interesting.
Actually, if the mory of the Queen k is correct, the k Tribe and the demons were actually created by the sa entity!
Yes, according to the mory of the Queen k, it was like this.
In the beginning, the world was void. Then an existence known as the Father of Heaven appeared. Of course, whether this Father of Heaven was so kind of ancient cosmic deity like the Star Gods or sothing else, Duanmu Huai did not know. All in all, as with many creation myths, a world called Urdaco was born around this Father of Heaven. Then, the Father of Heaven felt lonely being alone and created another world nad Gerrard and its inhabitants, so they could foster their civilization.
In this process, the Father of Heaven created an original deity nad Davos to manage Gerrard in his stead.
As with all stories, initially, under the guidance of Gerrard, this race prospered and developed quickly. But soon after, they fell into an existential crisis that any normal life form would have about death. Moreover, they also developed jealousy towards another race created by the Father of Heaven, the latter being the tribe of the Queen k, the k Tribe.
The k Tribe were the first beings born from Urdaco. They served as the Father of Heaven’s aide and children, assisting him in his research and creation. Most importantly, the k tribe had a giant machine called the “Genesis Engine,” which could separate the soul and body, converting the soul into a “Ball of Life”. This ant that even if a k tribe person was killed, as long as their Ball of Life still existed, they could recreate a body and revive through the Genesis Engine.
It was this point that sparked resent and envy from the people of Gerrard.
Why should it be that everyone was created by the Father of Heaven, and yet you have eternal life while I will perish and rot?
Therefore, you see, large families with too many siblings always cause all sorts of trouble due to this issue of uneven distribution of wealth. In modern tis, this could potentially turn into another TV episode of “People Vs Society,” such as “Siblings fight in court over inheritance.”
Unfortunately, this world had no courts, and there were no chances for an “out-of-court settlent”, so Davos led the people of Gerrard to attack Urdaco in an attempt to seize the Genesis Engine and achieve immortality.
Of course, in the end, the Father of Heaven defeated Davos and separated his soul from his body, sealing the soul of this rebellious deity within the Ball of Life. The Father of Heaven could have killed him, but because he cherished his child, he simply sealed him…
It was a good choice driven by gentle affection, indeed a good father.
By the way, Gerrard is now Hell, and Urdaco is Heaven where the k Tribe resides.
After this, the Father of Heaven also transford himself into the form of the Ball of Life and departed from the sorrowful material world. His Ball of Life was placed in the Sanctuary of Heaven.
But after that, sothing strange happened. Soone from the k Tribe betrayed the Queen and stole the Father of Heaven’s Ball of Life, causing it to disappear.
The k Tribe was now in a tough situation. Although they could be reborn from the Ball of Life through the Genesis Engine, the problem was, each rebirth of the k Tribe required confirmation from the Father of Heaven.
This is like sending a command to your superior indicating that number 0001 has died and now wishes to resurrect. But even then, one could not simply recreate oneself with the Genesis Engine unless that order was approved by the superior.
But now, the superior who was responsible for pressing “ok” disappeared, and no one could take his place. This ant that the k Tribe began to face the threat of death. Basically, all the revival requests of the k Tribe were being shelved. Therefore, under this condition, The Queen k had to find an alternative way to extend the life of her tribe. Hence, she set her sights on Hell and eventually tead up with the demons for the energy produced there.
In other words, as long as they find the Ball of Life of the Father of Heaven and Davos and destroy them, these aliens should be eliminated completely, right?
After reading the intelligence sent by the Night Guards, Duanmu Huai pondered. Of course, the information in Queen k’s brain was not just this, there was a lot of knowledge related to the k Tribe’s technology. Duanmu Huai asked the Night Guards to categorize them first and then see if there was anything useful for himself.
Of course, currently for Duanmu Huai, it seed there was not much that particularly caught his attention, except for the Genesis Engine.
This reminded Duanmu Huai of another race in the ga.
The Guardians.
They were also a human civilization force that had set foot in the universe and could be barely counted as one of the core civilizations in the Milky Way. The Guardians held an item called “Ingenuity”. As long as the Ingenuity existed, the Guardians who possessed the power of Light Energy could revive shortly after being killed.
This seed quite similar to the Genesis Engine, and most importantly, this was more convenient compared to the Genesis Engine.
Of course, the Guardians also had a weakness. If the Ingenuity owned by the Guardian was destroyed at the ti of his death, the Guardian would completely die as well.
Nevertheless, for players, the ability to resurrect in such a short period of ti is quite useful. So players even choose to double up as guardians, essentially equipping themselves with soul stones that can revive them right where they fall. Duanmu Huai plans to enlist a group of Guardians to help him solve the problem of the mont of doom after this.
A group of immortal guardians is certainly more useful than ordinary soldiers.
Additionally, in the ga, Guardians look just like players. Players often see guardians mimic their antics, causing them to feel quite attached to the guardians. For players in the ga, Guardians are more like NPCs mimicking players. They form teams and call out to people like players do, they enjoy PK, are not afraid of death, and occasionally pull off so hellish jokes. Guardians are willing to lend a hand as long as there are quests.
However, the problem with the guardians will be discussed later.
Duanmu Huai retracted his thoughts and looked at the intelligence in front of him again.
He was hoping to find the location of the Ball of Life of Father of Heaven or that guy nad Davos in the mory of Queen k. Sadly, Queen k’s mory only ntioned that the soul ball of Davos should be in hell. As the k Tribe couldn’t penetrate the hell dinsion, she didn’t know where Davos’ Ball of Life was…
“Knock knock knock.”
At this point, the sound of knocking on the door interrupted Duanmu Huai’s thoughts. He raised his head and looked at the door.
“Co in.”
“Ah, Sir Knight!!”
Soon, the door opened and Ann walked in, waving to Duanmu Huai.
“Ann, what’s up?”
“Well, the Ard Reaction Alliance sent representatives to look for you, they want to discuss the next action plan with you.”
“All right, I got it.”
Upon hearing Ann’s words, Duanmu Huai nodded. Then he suddenly thought of sothing and looked at Ann curiously.
“Can you communicate with them now?”
You should know that among these people, except for Duanmu Huai who could communicate with them through his power armor translator, no one else could understand the language of the people of this world. Despite Ann showing interest in learning the world’s language and asked Duanmu Huai to recomnd so textbooks, it had only been a few days…”
“Hehe, I learned it in just one day. What do you think, pretty amazing, right?”
“Impressive, impressive…”
Duanmu Huai silently gave a thumbs up. As expected of Manaria’s top mage, her IQ was undoubtedly high.
Shortly after, Duanmu Huai left the camp and headed towards the main gate. He soon saw a bald young man dressed in ARC uniform standing there awkwardly — clearly he was very nervous around the Night Guards. However, when he saw Duanmu Huai, he turned even paler, but he quickly raised his hand in salute.
“Hello, Your Honor, the Judge… I’m terribly sorry to disturb you during your busy ti…”
“What can I do for you?”
Duanmu Huai did not intend to make small talk and asked directly. The young man hesitated for a mont and then spoke.
“Well… Dr. Hyden invites you to the ARC Headquarters for further action planning…”
Dr. Hyden?
Upon hearing this na, Duanmu Huai furrowed his brow, but he nodded.
“Alright, lead the way.”
“Yes, please follow !!!”
The headquarters of the Ard Reaction Alliance is located on an aircraft carrier. This is to respond to demon invasions in various places as quickly as possible. Although the demon invasions have noticeably decreased after the death of the three Hell Priests, there are still scattered demon forces operating in various places. Human society, which has lost as many as six billion people, does not have sufficient military power to recapture the areas occupied by the demons. You could say that a stalemate exists between the two parties at present.
On his way to the ARC Headquarters, Duanmu Huai learned about Dr. Hyden’s situation from the young man. He was the first to stand up and advocate for human resistance when the human world was invaded by demons, and the formation of the ARC was also centered around him. The weapons and equipnt of the Reaction Ard Alliance were all based on Dr. Hyden’s scientific research.
Even Dr. Hyden himself once led an army deep into Hell in an attempt to curb the hellish onslaught, but unfortunately, the attempt ended in failure, and he was severely injured.
However, when Duanmu Huai t Dr. Hyden, he understood why he had refused to appear in person.
“This… is Dr. Hyden…”
The young man pointed at a robot in the repair bay in front of Duanmu Huai. The robot, which was reduced to an upper body with torn arms, stamred as he introduced it to Duanmu Huai.
