Chapter 516: Thank You~
Chapter 516: Thank You~
Qin Muye casually pressed the spirit calamity protagonist into the core of the Tongtian Pavilion, without the need for any sealing. The protagonist had already been deprived of his mind by Qin Muye.
This meant that the spirits were still present, but the collective consciousness they formed had disappeared, effectively reverting the spirit calamity to its original form, albeit a slightly better one since at least the spirits were still there.
There was no need to worry about anyone releasing this thing, as Qin Muye was waiting right here.
The reason he dared not use sealing or other methods to capture him was that he feared it would be judged as part of the main quest to overcome the great calamity.
The reason was simple: the great calamity had already begun, and stopping it naturally meant it would be judged as overcoming it.
As for not overcoming it, well, the person would be gone, so what was there to question?
Therefore, Qin Muye could only handle it this way for now.
"This could also be considered a somewhat significant bug, after all, who would materialize the great calamity?"
A normal Overlord definitely wouldn't do this. After all, who would have thought that the great calamity and the protagonist could have such a deep connection? Only someone like Qin Muye, who had been manipulating the protagonist for ten years, could pull off such a feat.
Besides, a normal Overlord would have completed the mission and left long ago, how could they stay for ten years?
"Black Hand, the spirit calamity has been suppressed, the plan has changed, and the dimensional reaction extraction factory construction will now begin comprehensively." Qin Muye informed Black Hand.
The original plan had undergone significant changes.
Firstly, regarding the spirit calamity, Qin Muye's original plan was to clear the Spirit Land first and have the protagonist help resist the spirit calamity to avoid large-scale losses in the present world.
However, he didn't expect to directly solve it and press the protagonist and the spirit calamity into the Tongtian Pavilion in one go.
In a certain sense, the protagonist did help resist the spirit calamity, even if the form was a bit different, it still dragged it out.
"Thank you~" Qin Muye said with a very good heart.
Although he had harmed the protagonist, one thing was one thing, and since the other party had helped him, he had to be a little polite.
"Don't worry, once I complete the dimensional reaction extraction factory, I'll definitely send you to the prison to enjoy a peaceful life. Even if you become a vegetable, there will be spirits to take good care of you, and I won't let you suffer even a bit of injustice." Qin Muye was a very good person.
He thought this thing was also good material, and when the time came, he would see if he could make some equipment for himself to use.
With the protagonist's halo, the spirit calamity sludge, and the protagonist, he had to make a protagonist treasure.
Even if it wasn't a protagonist treasure, he had to create an artificial protagonist's halo for himself to enjoy, otherwise, every time he entered a dungeon, he would be the protagonist and get stuck without the protagonist's halo. Even if, in Qin Muye's view, the protagonist's halo might be a temporary skill that gets stuck, but if it was artificial, it could be disassembled.
As long as it succeeded, Qin Muye could use it whenever he wanted, and if he didn't want to use it, he wouldn't.
Besides, how could a fake one possibly be as effective as the real one?
More importantly, he could use an artificial protagonist to indirectly harm the world.
Of course, the premise was that the spirit calamity protagonist could be taken away, as it was part of the main quest content. If it had to die, Qin Muye could only painfully execute it.
The spirit calamity protagonist was only one of the materials for an artificial protagonist's halo, not a necessary material. With this thing, he could save a lot of materials.
As for the effect, it would definitely be the same, after all, it was a fake one, and any material would work the same.
The construction efficiency was still very high, whether it was the Spirit Land or the present world.
In the Spirit Land, it was the spirits working, and in the present world, it was the Protection Umbrella Corporation, a massive entity suppressing everything. Anyone who resisted or had objections was directly killed.
The spirits wouldn't argue with humans about any big Truth. For them, completing Qin Muye’s assigned task was the top priority, not arguing with humans.
Conflict? It didn't exist; there were only two situations: dead people blocking their path and living people not blocking their path, no third situation.
Pressure, coercion, and other means didn't bring compromise from the spirits, but direct slaughter.
For the spirits, humans were just part of the resources, it was just that there was no time to harvest them now.
The resources harvested are called Skeleton Soldiers. Of course, chaos is a significant issue.
The originally well-structured system being invaded by a violent system, chaos is inevitable; otherwise, it wouldn't seamlessly integrate.
Although the spirits all disguise as human forms, for a world used as a project, the conflict is not a simple matter.
If it weren't for the inability to harvest all resources at once, the labor force would have been fully utilized long ago.
There would be no problem with Qin Muye taking action, but why should Qin Muye take action? Could it be that he raises spirits just for show?
Efficiency is a bit slower than his, but it's not impossible.
The spirits constructing the dimensional reaction Extraction Factory and harvesting resources are not the same type of spirits; it's just that they need to coordinate with the project, so they are a bit slower, not that they don't harvest.
It would be strange to let Qin Muye take action. Which major company would have the boss clean if the cleaners didn't show up?
Even if the boss had the time, but that's not a problem.
If the security guards take leave, the boss would have to cover for them.
Harvesting resources is not a big deal, nor an urgent matter; it just needs to coordinate with the construction of the Titan-level structure; there's no need to rush.
At the current state of the Endless Abyss, a world's resources are not lacking; in the end, they are directly consumed, so harvesting is just a routine.
"Interesting, even if they become vegetables, they still seem to have instinctive movements; truly, they are a part of the world."
Qin Muye found that the behavior caused by the start of the dimensional reaction extraction factory made the spirit calamity protagonist undergo unconscious changes.
It's like rushing to the stage, but Qin Muye easily suppressed them.
Lacking strength, even if they are indestructible, what can they do? The next act is likely to be worse than ordinary people.
"From what I see, the world's brain is dead, but the preset system is still in place, truly amazing." Qin Muye couldn't help but marvel.
The world is a vast system, civilization, life, and all natural beings are parts of the construction, forming a vast collective world.
Even if this world has problems, it still thrives, possibly dying young.
However, these matters have nothing to do with Qin Muye, because if this world dies young, Qin Muye will have consumed it first.
"Is it possible for me to further investigate the world's operational model through this cargo?" Qin Muye pondered, thinking that there might be some Constellation shares, otherwise, it would be used here.
"Alright, anyway, it's being entangled here to avoid this cargo becoming a zombie, I might as well study it a bit."
Qin Muye deeply felt that he was cautious enough at the time, as this appearance truly could feign, after all, they are the protagonist with a protagonist aura, how could they not feign?
And it's not just any protagonist.
Qin Muye has been investigating the world's operational mode, but deciphering the world's rules is a bit tricky, not that Qin Muye can't decipher, but the world is different, and the rules also vary, the applicability is not great.
It's like moving the Shadow System into the Secret Martial World; it's not that there's a problem using it, but it's about whether people can live with it.
Unless it's someone like Qin Muye, who is powerful enough to ignore the world's rules, otherwise, it's either the person dies or the system fails.
Moreover, the Endless Abyss is not the real world, and after deciphering, there's no practical use, making the Endless Abyss a Secret Martial World or a Ten Thousand Shadows World? What's the point?
This has no significance, at most it adds some data. Even if the data is important, with the world consumed by him, many problems are solved.
"Alright, I still feel that studying why they can feign is more valuable than studying the world's operational mode."
Upon careful thought, the world's rules currently have no great value to him; in the future, changing a world will still allow for study, but the universality is not high, and compatibility is lacking. Instead, the behavior of the other party feigning is more valuable.
Even if he studies first, with just a bit of Constellation share, he probably won't decipher anything; his energy is mostly spent on studying myth-level treasures and traits of his territory, as well as territory architecture.
