Chapter 299 Food and “Poison”
There was still a deep sense of wariness in this elder's tone.
At this time, Su Yu spoke again: "Let me introduce myself. I am a human being, not that mechanical beast. I come from the outside world."
When Su Yu said these words, he was immediately shocked again.
"What? Human? From the outside world?"
When everyone heard that Su Yu claimed to be a human being, they all couldn't believe it.
After all, when did such a powerful extraordinary person appear among humans? Why haven't they seen it?
However, when Su Yu's body was almost recovered, the seven-star elders could sense that Su Yu was indeed made of flesh and blood, wearing a mechanical armor.
It's not a mechanical beast, it has a flesh and blood core as an energy source.
This is an essential difference. These elders have been dealing with mechanical beasts for hundreds of thousands of years and they are confident that they will not be wrong.
From this point of view, is Su Yu really a human being?
However, the question comes back again, where did such a strong human come from? Could it be that some genius practiced secretly?
How is it possible to independently cultivate to eight or even nine stars without the help of the Elder Council?
Or is he a traitor who surrendered to the mechanical beast?
For a while, they did not think of the possibility of outsiders, because this embodied space had been closed for too long! There have been no outsiders.
These people have almost forgotten the outside world!
Just when everyone was wondering about Su Yu's origin, they suddenly heard Su Yu claiming to be an outsider.
Suddenly their eyes widened in shock.
From the outside world! How can it be? There have been no outsiders in this embodied space for thousands of years!
Could it be said that the passage to the outside world has finally appeared?
impossible! It must be the conspiracy of the mechanical beast!
Maybe this Su Yu is a new breed of mechanical beast, and his imperial coins are the inventory of the mechanical beasts!
These humans call the mechanical creations that rule and oppress them "mechanical beasts."
In their opinion, Su Yu's appearance and those imperial coins may all be the conspiracy of the mechanical beast!
However, thousands of years have passed, does the mechanical beast really still have so many imperial coins?
Imperial coins are made with one coin less, and no one here can cast them.
And if the mechanical beasts really find this place, just start a war and kill them all. Why do you need to make any conspiracy?
Could it be that this terrifying human strongman Su Yu really came from the outside world?
Everyone couldn't believe this for a moment.
But I couldn't help but believe it.
They have lived in this embodied space for too long, suffered too much, and suffered too much oppression.
For thousands of years, generation after generation, they have wanted to escape from this space every moment.
Every moment, they hope that one day an outsider will come out and show them the way out.
But now, when Su Yu really stood in front of them, they refused to believe him.
Although I don't want to believe it, I also don't want to disbelieve it.
Everyone was silent, afraid to speak out, for fear of breaking this dream.
Seeing this, Su Yu could understand their mood.
So Su Yu changed his mind and started to take things from the void space again.
Speaking of which, Su Yu still doesn't know what the principle of this void space is. Even in this embodied space, it does not prevent the void space from functioning.
With this convenient void space, Su Yu could carry a large amount of supplies with him and resolve the "diplomatic" crisis just now.
Now, Su Yu wants to use the materials in his void space again.
However, what Su Yu took out this time was not an energy coin.
It's not a mechanical creation or anything like that.
But a very ordinary substance.
That is…
All kinds of food, water, meat, vegetables, drinks, wine... Su Yu took out a steady stream from the void space.
When Su Yu took out these things, he deliberately used spiritual energy to thaw them and opened the packages.
Suddenly, the aroma of food filled the entire hall of the Presbytery.
This kind of fragrance is more attractive to everyone than the pure spiritual energy of energy coins!
Because they have never eaten real food since they were young, but only disgusting synthetic food.
And those raw materials for synthetic food... don't mention them.
Ludong!
Someone made the sound of swallowing saliva, which was particularly obvious.
Su Yu quietly took a look and found that the source of the voice was actually an eight-star elder.
This elder has a strong physique and seems to be of the physical type, so the sound of swallowing saliva is particularly loud.
The other elders were all about the same. When they saw Su Yu taking out so much food, their eyes widened and they were all swallowing their saliva.
Although these elders are seven-star warriors and powerful, they are still human beings after all.
The desire for delicious food is engraved in our genes.
They are greedy!
What the **** can be eaten in this embodied space? We eat synthetic food every day, so it would be strange if we don't crave it.
Especially these elders, they may have been greedy for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Su Yu felt terrible when he thought about this kind of torture.
In fact, if Su Yu doesn't eat for ten days and a half, it won't be a problem, but if he doesn't eat for a month or two months, it won't be a problem.
Then you will probably miss the food a little bit, even if you are not hungry.
If you don't eat for a year, a hundred years, or a thousand years...
I'd rather die.
Su Yu thought it was unbearable to endure that kind of torture, but in fact, he could forcibly endure it by using the power of nothingness to eliminate his emotions.
But there is no need to endure it.
Now, these elders may have experienced hunger torture for thousands of years!
Seeing these foods, they are just people swallowing saliva, but they already have strong concentration.
These elders with strong concentration are like this, let alone those ordinary extraordinary people?
Everyone's eyes turned red when they saw the food Su Yu took out! Like a wild beast, he wanted to rush forward immediately.
"Wait!...You are Su Yu, right? Mr. Su Yu, we believe you are an outsider!"
Suddenly, the elder who was extraordinarily tall and swallowed extraordinarily loudly roared.
Su Yu smiled slightly. It seemed that these foods were as useful as energy coins.
These foods are absolutely not available in this embodied space.
They can use technology to synthesize basic sugars, proteins and other nutrients.
But these natural foods cannot be synthesized! These delicacies cannot be synthesized!
In fact, the technology for synthesizing delicious food was probably available in the human empire back then.
But certainly not here.
Otherwise, these people wouldn't be eating those synthetic stuff every day.
I feel pitiful just thinking about it.
Su Yu stopped smiling and was about to speak, using these foods to treat everyone to a feast and establish friendship.
These foods were all prepared by Su Yu for himself in advance. They were placed in the void space, and there were quite a lot of them.
Su Yu's void space could only carry one hundred cubic meters of matter at first.
It's not that the void space is not big enough, but that Su Yu's void power is not strong enough to move more matter into the void space.
Later, as Su Yu's strength improved, he was promoted to War Mechanic, broke through eight stars, and later even had nine-star level power. He even saw the timeline with his own eyes.
The amount of material he can carry has already increased dozens of times.
Even large mechanical creations such as assault tanks can carry two units.
The amount of food Su Yu carried this time was also quite large, covering thousands of cubic meters, like a small warehouse.
There are no microorganisms in the void space, and Su Yu uses freezing processing, so these foods will not spoil and can be stored for a long time. If Su Yu was trapped in a desperate situation and unable to get out, relying on these foods and eating sparingly, it would not be a problem to survive for hundreds of years.
However, for the millions of people in this city, it is too little and not enough to eat.
But there were only a few thousand people in this elder's courtyard space, and it was more than enough for Su Yu to treat them all to a meal.
However, at this time, the tall elder seemed to see Su Yu's intention and quickly tilted his head with great perseverance: "Mr. Su Yu, please put these things away quickly!"
Several other elders also tilted their heads and said similarly: "Mr. Su Yu, please put these things away!"
They addressed Su Yu very politely, including sir.
It seems that Su Yu's identity as an outsider has been recognized.
But he actually asked Su Yu to put these things away?
Moreover, they call these foods "things", which seems to avoid snakes and scorpions.
"Everyone, why is this?"
"I'm also going to invite you..."
Before Su Yu could finish speaking, he saw the elders hurriedly waving their hands to stop him.
Su Yu had no choice but to activate the power of nothingness again to collect all the food.
Then an elder immediately activated his ability to clean up the food aroma in the air around him.
In a short period of time, the tempting aroma of food in the hall was exhausted.
The elders breathed a sigh of relief.
As for the other people, when they saw the food disappearing, they all looked desperate and lost their minds.
But fortunately, they all still have sense.
"Mr. Su Yu, you don't know something. Those things just now are called 'poison' here."
"Unless it can be provided unlimitedly, please put it away first, otherwise it will cause a big problem."
An elder noticed Su Yu's confusion and explained.
However, he was unclear and did not elaborate.
But Su Yu was so smart and thought so fast that he immediately understood what the elder meant.
"Poison? That's it..."
Su Yu nodded slightly.
For these humans who have been eating synthetic food for thousands of years, the temptation of normal food is too great.
Once they taste the taste of normal food, they may no longer be able to tolerate those disgusting synthetic foods.
At that time, I was afraid that someone would fall into madness.
It's like being poisoned.
Unless Su Yu has unlimited food for all of them to eat, then they can "detoxify".
But Su Yu could only treat them to a meal, and it was impossible to provide unlimited supplies. That would be a good intention but a bad thing.
That's why the elders just asked Su Yu to quickly put away the food.
Others probably understand this too.
So from beginning to end, no one really rushed over to take a bite.
"Although there is no normal food in this embodied space, in theory, there is actually a kind of meat that can be eaten... and that is themselves!"
Su Yu thought to himself.
Maybe something terrible happened to these people before because of food.
That's why they avoid these foods like snakes and scorpions!
"It's even possible to use their technology to create a virtual space like the Illusion City, where you can eat virtual food and feel satisfied."
"But they don't seem to be doing this, and it seems there are still huge hidden dangers."
"I guess if you do that and you are not mentally strong enough, you will no longer be able to accept the cruel reality of the world."
"It's not easy..."
Su Yu sighed slightly in his heart.
Then he spoke again: "Everyone, I come here for two main purposes."
"One of them is to look for the legacy technology and knowledge of the Titan Legion."
Su Yu didn't say any more, but stated his purpose in full.
He had nothing to hide in this matter.
When the elders heard this, their eyes narrowed.
As the descendants of the mechanics of the Titan Army, they have inherited the mechanical technology from thousands of years ago and regard it as a treasure, which has never been taken away by the mechanical beasts.
This ancestral technology is their lifeblood, and no outsiders are allowed to get involved!
But Su Yu directly said that it was for those technologies.
It's like telling them that I'm here to rob your heirlooms!
However, they did not get angry. Instead, they took a deep breath and asked, "What about the second purpose?"
When Su Yu heard this, he smiled slightly: "Of course I will rescue you."
As soon as these words came out, Su Yu saw doubtful expressions on everyone's faces.
They had no relatives and no reason. Su Yu said that he came specifically to rescue them? How could they believe it?
They have suffered enough and find it difficult to trust others.
Su Yu ignored the doubts of the audience and continued:
"To tell you the truth, in the outside world, I own a mechanical city with millions of people in it."
"I am preparing to build a large number of battle armors to arm these people and form a large army to face the terrible enemy."
"But I lack talents to help me build my armor."
"You mechanics, if you can rescue me, you can help me."
Upon hearing this second purpose, everyone suddenly became furious: "We will never surrender to any existence..."
From what they heard, Su Yu actually wanted to enslave them!
They have been enslaved by mechanical beasts for thousands of years, how can they accept it?
But before they finished speaking, Su Yu pointed to the energy coins piled on the ground:
"Don't be nervous. In my mechanical city, everyone relies on labor to earn energy coins, and then use the energy coins to exchange for various materials."
"There is no such thing as slavery, but employment and equal exchange."
"After you go out, you can rely on your own labor to exchange for various resources, such as these energy coins and the previous 'poisons'."
Su Yu not only spoke, but also used his data capabilities to project various pictures to show everyone how the residents of the Machinery City lived.
Everyone was stunned when they saw the scene on the screen: "Is this...the outside world?"
"Are these humans just like us?"
"Is this true? Is there really such a life..."
“Incredible…”
Everyone was fascinated by it and couldn't help but murmur.
In his eyes, there is infinite longing.
In the picture, the residents lived a free and unoppressed life, which they could not even imagine in their dreams.
I have suffered for so long that I don't even dare to dream too beautifully, lest I wake up.
"of course it's true!"
"As long as we cooperate and go out together, then these lives will come true!"
Su Yu smiled.
