Just 8 billion people
Chapter 100 Tsk tsk, only 8 million humans
Chapter 100 Tsk tsk, only billion humans (Part )
“What are they doing?” (Unknown language formed by the alternating flashes of optical structures)
“You’re welcoming us, right? Hahahaha.”
“It was through the ‘vision’ that they detected our invasion.”
“Thank you Mongolian (paraphrased), if you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known.”
“These weak, low-dimensional creatures are quite perceptive.”
“But why do they keep staring up there?”
The border between West District and North District.
On top of a green mountain range.
A group of disc-shaped life forms, similar to jellyfish without tentacles… and also similar to delicate flying discs, were suspended high in the air, quietly observing the densely packed human soldiers below.
Their appearance is very strange.
The whole is flat.
Body diameter varies greatly, ranging from 1 to 2 meters.
The thickness is between 30 and 50 cm.
Its surface is covered with a layer of crystal substance.
Under the midday sunlight on Earth, it reflects a colorful spectrum.
Although they are disc-shaped, their front and back can be distinguished through a pair of huge and protruding “visual” organs.
These eyes are too big.
It almost completely occupies half of their “head”.
Like two large oval gems, deep and mysterious.
It is covered with a more reflective film that constantly changes colors.
Obviously.
This is how they communicate with each other…
“According to the information, they are called ‘humans’, right?”
“Yes. As ugly as their names.”
“The lowest carbon-based organism. Like the ‘creepers’, they interact through air vibration organs.”
A noticeably more “petite” Frisbee, swinging the soft and flexible folds at the edges of her body, moves to the front.
Watch the humans below carefully.
A pair of big eyes flickering with light and shadow.
“Human beings are a one-dimensional inferior civilization.”
“There are eight billion of them.”
“Communication through sounds and body movements is backward and primitive. It is full of disguise and concealment.”
“Perhaps it is for this reason that their social culture and structure have problems. The structure is very unequal. It is impossible to accumulate and share individual spiritual knowledge.”
“It causes them to remain at a one-dimensional level.”
“The reproduction method is very interesting.”
“It’s completely different from the way we exchange and recombine genetic material in the form of light encoding.”
“But why did the previous time travel construction fail…”
Another slightly larger Frisbee floated over, its eyes flickering.
“The atmosphere of this planet is too dense. A lot of ultraviolet light, visible light and infrared light are blocked out, which makes me very uncomfortable. Let’s start the invasion directly. After they are dealt with, I can go home.”
“Okay. But there are too many of them. It will take too long to clean them up and gather them together.”
“Only eight billion humans. No trouble.”
The leading Frisbee turned around.
“Look” at other similar people behind you.
Immediately, all the flying discs raised their “big eyes” and resonated with the spectrum.
Rays of light stronger than sunlight are released from their light energy storage devices.
Complete the common thinking of each other.
Because of the accessibility of information transmission.
In their civilization, power is difficult to be monopolized and manipulated by a minority group.
Every individual can participate equally in the social process and express his or her own views and opinions.
And because of the fusion of light.
As long as an individual has a loud voice and shines brightly enough, he or she can copy and paste his or her own “thinking” onto another person.
This leads to a social structure in which some are smart and some are stupid.
Obviously.
Among this group of “personnel”, the small frisbee at the head glows the most.
After a while, the light in the eyes of all its peers was rendered the same color as it…
But it’s also too bright.
The light is too strong.
Attracted two patrolling human soldiers.
Human Soldier A: “…”
Human Soldier B: “…”
Human Soldier A scratched his head: “What the hell are these people?”
“Some kind of alienated fungus.” Soldier B confirmed: “In our hometown, it’s called Jun’er.”
After all, after the world has undergone two dimensional upgrades, all creatures other than humans have gradually become strange in shape.
“It’s too dazzling.” Soldier A narrowed his eyes and said, “It should be suitable to use it as a light bulb at home.”
“…It feels a bit like cold noodles.” Soldier B took a few tentative steps forward and touched the edge of a “flying disc”. “It is indeed mushroom. I wonder if it can be eaten.”
“You Dongda people, all you think about is eating. It’s better to be a light bulb.”
“The eyes are so big! They’re looking at us!”
“…It seems more appropriate to use the eyes as light bulbs.”
“It’s definitely very interesting.”
During the conversation, Soldier A heard his superior’s voice through his earphone.
“Why is there light at your location? Go and take a look!”
“It’s here.” Soldier A pressed the button on his headset and replied seriously, “It’s a field of mushrooms.”
“The light is too bright! It’s almost buried. It will be troublesome if it attracts the attention of the higher-dimensional creatures in the crack.”
“Yes!”
After shutting down the communication, Soldier A turned to Soldier B and said, “The boss asked us to…”
Before he could finish his words, Soldier B was shocked: “They are coming!”
Soldier A reacted quickly, his body flashed instinctively, and he jumped straight into the air. His super-dimensional strength completely exploded!
And a slap in the face.
“Puff, puff, puff…”
“Pfft.”
“Pfft-“
A terrifying gale swept past!
All the flying discs were broken into pieces as cleanly and neatly as broken tofu.
The light they originally gathered together dimmed instantly…
“thump.”
With his feet on the ground, Soldier A scratched his head: “…It’s over.”
Soldier B frowned: “Why are you trying so hard? Is this still edible?”
“You scared me. And this thing is so soft, you won’t be able to chew it.”
“I can’t chew stainless steel now. I just enjoy the taste.”
“Here.”
Soldier A bent down, picked up a piece of the “frisbee” and handed it to his comrade: “Then you can try it. I have Lao Gan Ma with me.”
“……Row.”
Soldier B took the fragment and put it into his mouth.
“…”
“…What’s that smell?”
“Sour. Not tasty.”
The flying disc fragments: “…”
……
A little episode.
No one pays attention.
Dozens of army groups were still guarding their positions, nervously looking at the crack in the sky, waiting for the main show to begin.
then……
Do not know why.
The purple color that originally covered the entire world inexplicably faded away slowly as time went by.
The deep crack that looked like a canyon gradually shortened and became smaller, and finally healed. All mankind: “???”
“what?”
……
“it’s dark.”
“Yes.”
“Where’s the alien Ren’er?”
“That’s called a higher-dimensional creature. Not an alien.”
“Call them what you like. I just want to know, why didn’t they come?”
Tokyo University.
The capital of the Great Xiao Dynasty, Baicheng.
Nalan Duxiu, leaning on a cane, and Chen Banxian, smoking welding cigarettes, stood on the roof of a side hall, looking up at the starry sky together.
“Maybe…” Chen Banxian exhaled a puff of smoke: “Maybe they have something urgent to do.”
“Everyone has been deceived by Xiao Yu.” Nalan Duxiu looked ugly.
“You should call him Your Majesty.” Chen Banxian narrowed his eyes. “Besides, maybe the group of high-dimensional creatures didn’t dare to come after seeing so many soldiers. What this world lacks the least is accidents.”
“You are right about this.”
Nalan Duxiu lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then took out a stack of documents from his arms: “Now, there is a surprise for you.”
“What is this?” Chen Banxian took the document and unfolded it. His brows furrowed and he repeated, “What is this?”
“Isn’t it clearly written?”
“You want to cancel the engagement?”
“Your Majesty has not returned for many years.” Nalan Duxiu put his hands behind his back and said in a gloomy tone: “The situation in the court is getting worse and worse, and we in the Nalan family can do nothing about it.”
“…Do you know the consequences of doing this?” Chen Banxian turned his head and looked at Nalan Duxiu with cold eyes.
“I just know the consequences if I don’t do it.”
“Is it your Nalan family’s intention, or Nalan Yanran’s intention?”
“What’s the difference?” Nalan Duxiu spread his hands: “Yes.”
“…”
Silent.
Chen Banxian reopened the document and spent ten minutes reading it from beginning to end, word by word.
Finally, he put the sneer in his arms.
Not to mention Xiao Yu’s instructions two years ago, based on the actions of the Nalan family and the remarks made by the top leaders during this period of time, Chen Banxian had actually already anticipated that the Nalan family would cancel the engagement.
This is also the reason why Xiao Yaya’s attitude towards the Nalan family has become increasingly worse.
“Um……”
But considering that Nalan Yanran was a pretty good kid, Chen Banxian pondered for a while and tried to mediate: “Have you, the Nalan family, confirmed this matter?”
“of course.”
“Then is there a possibility that we can wait for Xiao Yu to come back and discuss this matter? After all, he is Nalan Yanran’s fiancé and the person involved.”
“What do you think?” Nalan Duxiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
But soon, he realized the deeper meaning of Chen Banxian’s words: “You mean, His Majesty will be back soon?”
“I did not say.”
“Same as last time? Also three years?”
“I didn’t say anything.” Chen Banxian looked up at the starry sky with a calm expression.
“…But he’s back, so what.” Nalan Duxiu followed Chen Banxian’s gaze and looked into the night: “He failed to keep up with the evolution. Everything has changed. If he is smart, he should continue to hide.”
“Ok.”
Seeing this, Chen Banxian didn’t say anything more. He shook out the tobacco in his pipe and flew away without looking back: “Then I agree to cancel the engagement on behalf of Xiao Yu. You’d better drink your last drop.”
Xiao Yu’s talent is the most important secret of their family.
The fact that one can only become stronger by sleeping means that the day he returns will be a complete weakness.
Chen Banxian would never reveal this to anyone else.
So, since the Nalan family has made its choice.
Chen Banxian could only wish him good luck.
……
same time.
Deep space.
Xiao Yu’s speed has reached 16.8 kilometers per hour.
But he was not happy at all.
Especially after seeing the purple color surrounding the earth disappear, the violence deep in his mind became even more boiling.
Just as the hemp-clothed boy said.
They fell for it.
These high-dimensional beings that invaded various civilizations were, in the final analysis, just a group of insignificant cannon fodder…
all.
We also need to start with an extremely special civilization.
They are called “initial sweepers.”
Just from the name, you can tell that the “main line” of this civilization is cleaning!
Eliminate any intelligent race that might pose a threat to them.
Even their main target is the “technology-based” civilization group.
This “initial sweeper.”
I don’t know how many years it has existed.
As one of the civilizations that has undergone a “spiritual leap”, they know that the explosion of civilization is extremely rapid.
Whether it is the technological route or the spiritual route, as long as a few geniuses appear, the level of civilization can rise explosively.
Therefore, the “Sweepers” enslaved a group of civilizations with extremely limited talents, castrating their potential while also giving them the ability to bypass the cosmic scale and invade various planets.
These enslaved subordinate civilizations can only rush to higher dimensional levels through the most primitive and inefficient method of absorbing a large amount of “weight”.
Therefore, as the dimension increases, it will become more and more difficult for them to advance.
The only way is to invade other civilizations more crazily and turn the intelligent individuals of those civilizations into brain fields to extract more weight.
The level of dimensions is not as simple as Xiao Yu and the young man in hemp clothes had previously thought.
From low to high, it is even divided into nine dimensions!
That is, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Human beings five years ago were one-dimensional.
After Xiao Yu’s two dimensional upgrades, it became three-dimensional.
But this is still insignificant on the scale of the universe.
For example, the “Initial Sweeper” belongs to the top nine-dimensional civilization…
Under the massive cleanup by these “slaves” of the “sweepers”, any civilization has only two possible outcomes.
1. The invasion is successful, and all of them are turned into brain fields, and then they die after being drained dry.
Second, the invasion failed and was counterattacked by that civilization.
This also means that the civilization has the potential and ability to upgrade its dimension without invading other civilizations to extract weight.
What greeted this civilization was the thundering strangulation of the “Sweeper Group”!
After all, they are the main target of the “Initial Sweepers”.
For example, humans in the future timeline.
After Xiao Yu upgraded the human civilization of the entire timeline, future humans successfully repelled the invaders.
But immediately, a “three-dimensional” creature came.
They didn’t take the path of squeezing out power at all, but simply wiped out all of humanity, and even most of the animals on the surface of the earth.
Destroy them all!
In this case, if this civilization can still fight back.
The “initial sweeper” of the Ninth Dimension will take action personally.
The entire galaxy where the civilization exists will be annihilated!
The main goal is to use a nuclear bomb to blow up the ants, and go all out to leave no one alive…
‘so……’
In the real world, Xiao Yu and his compatriots who had reached the three-dimensional level killed the invaders so quickly.
That’s still good?!
What will be the fate of human civilization next?
With the cautious style of the “initial sweepers”, it is not surprising that the next wave of high-dimensional invasion will come directly from a “fourth-dimensional” or even a group of “fifth-dimensional” creatures!
And every time he pushed humans to upgrade their dimensions, it took three years…
“This is a deadly situation. No civilization can resist it.”
This is what the hemp-clothed boy said about the future in his dream.
Xiao Yu knew.
He’s right.
