I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 41 Immortal Things
  A soldier walked up to Captain Su and asked in a low voice: "Captain, these are creatures with Theseus cells, why don't you kill them?"

Captain Su slapped the soldier on the head and cursed: "You are so good at killing, have you seen that you have killed all the creatures in the sealed area?"

"But the creatures above are not intelligent. If these intelligent creatures develop for thousands of years and discover the world on the ground, won't they start fighting?" The soldier touched his head and said seriously.

"They are still in the middle of a war, and they may have a technological explosion and master a lot of war technology." The soldier added.

Captain Su looked at him strangely: "Have you seen the Three-Body Problem recently?"

The soldier nodded.

"The laws of the dark forest, right?"

The soldier's eyes lit up, and just as he was about to ask some more questions, Captain Su kicked him away.

The atmosphere relaxed a little.

The bodies of soldiers killed in previous battles were collected.

The Transparent clan members were also packing their clothes and weapons. When they first met the soldiers who were cleaning up the scene, they stayed away from them.

But after discovering that these soldiers ignored them at all, they gradually lost their fear, and the two teams marched staggeredly in the area.

However, Mo Ling was still immersed in the battle with the sheep-headed men.

He found that the current formal logic of the sheep-headed man did not seem to be consistent with either the ugly duckling phenomenon or the red string worm.

It’s not a frantic slaughter of tree-broken sheep, nor is it always moving towards one place.

"Why did he come here to kill the Transparent Tribe?"

Mo Ling couldn't understand.

Captain Su also walked to the cube and discussed the sheep-headed man's behavior with Li Luo.

"It seems to be moving in one direction now, killing people indiscriminately, and sometimes turning back suddenly. There is no logic at all." Captain Su said in confusion.

Li Luo thought for a while and then said: "He is not illogical. His logic is in line with the ugly duckling phenomenon."

Captain Su was puzzled: "Why does it match?"

Li Luo explained: "It has discovered that its source race is not the tree-breaking sheep, but Theseus cells."

"Maybe it was discovered after escaping back to the underground world, so it no longer insisted on returning to the surface, but chose to kill the transparent people everywhere."

"And it's getting smarter and smarter. It knows that we will always hinder it here, so it chooses to avoid the battle. It's not that it doesn't want to kill."

"It should have understood that this underground world is full of Theseus cell creatures, and there is no shortage of this."

After Captain Su heard this, he stood there blankly, thought for a moment, and said, "You mean, we don't need to care about it anymore? Just let it be killed here?"

Li Luo was silent, as if she had no solution.

Mo Ling, who was in the square, was helpless after hearing this.

The immortal body infected by the red rope worm becomes stronger and stronger as it fights. There is only one way to restrain it, but now it has reached a point where it cannot be restrained.

He became smarter and wiser, and learned to avoid battles.

There is no way to limit such a life form.

Captain Su called his deputy over again and assessed the danger of the sheep-headed man. He seemed to be hesitant about his decision to pursue them forcefully.

The deputy told Captain Su that the sheep-headed man was now extremely dangerous.

Although it will not have any impact on humans at present, no one knows the subsequent development of this relic phenomenon and the life forms created by the superposition of abyssal creatures. “I told you to take it one step at a time, but I didn’t expect that not long after, the situation reached such a serious stage, and so many brothers were sacrificed in vain.” Captain Su blamed himself very much.

After discussing for a long time, Captain Su decided not to let it go.

"First change the plan and continue tracking, but this time we will focus on observation. If there is an opportunity, we will try to guide its behavior. We can no longer fight head-on."

Captain Su asked his deputy to convey orders to the soldiers.

He sighed and said: "Even if we can't eliminate it, we should get some information on Theseus cells and the relic phenomenon and go back. At least we can't go back empty-handed."

In the abyss, there are always choices. The deputy nodded lonely and turned to leave.

After a while, the transparent old man came back. After Captain Su asked him about the direction of the sheep-headed man, he suddenly showed a horrified expression.

"What's wrong?" Looking at the startled old man, Captain Su asked in confusion.

"That place is in the direction of our village!"

After the old man answered Captain Su, he quickly ran back to his companions and said something anxiously.

These transparent tribesmen no longer bothered to pack up the clothes and weapons scattered on the ground, and hurriedly packed their luggage.

Upon seeing this, Captain Su asked everyone to follow him and came to the Transparent Clan.

"If you don't mind, you can set off together. We are not familiar with this and need someone to guide us." Captain Su said sincerely.

These transparent tribesmen looked at each other in confusion, and after a heated argument, they agreed to Captain Su's request.

On the way, the old man of the Transparent Tribe introduced the history of this underground world to everyone:

"A long time ago, there were only Transparent people in this place, and there were no wars. Everything was very peaceful, and we lived a life without fighting against the world."

"But one day, a strange kind of cave suddenly appeared everywhere. Inside the cave was a kind of white oval-shaped flesh that was constantly squirming and trying to devour things that were close to it."

"This is not the scariest thing. Our ancestors cut some of that meat and found that it did not turn into a transparent liquid!"

"After that kind of flesh particles leave the cave, although they will no longer move, they will not disappear. They will even exist in this world."

"At that time, there was a powerful prophet among our ancestors. He asserted that this was an extremely terrifying 'immortal thing' that would bring disaster to the world, but some people did not believe him."

"As expected, just as the prophet said, it didn't take long before disaster struck, and all kinds of 'immortal things' began to pour out of the 'Immortal Cave'."

"At first, it was just some branches and leaves. Later, creatures came to this place. These creatures began to occupy the world here and began to slaughter the transparent people."

"This kind of immortal creature will not become transparent like the transparent race after death. Instead, it will exist in the world forever, turning into flesh and blood, occupying the space of this world!"

At this point, the old man became excited and his eyes turned red.

"At that time, our ancestors were shocked. Flesh and blood that will not disappear! As long as there are enough, the world will be completely filled. By then, there will be no room for survival in this world."

"Occupy the ground, occupy the water, occupy the air, until the whole world is filled with immortal flesh and blood!"

When a soldier heard this, he couldn't help laughing and asked: "How long have these immortal things been in this world?"

The old man couldn't understand the soldier's smile, but he still replied politely: "It's been a long time, more than a dozen generations."

"Did the immortal thing fill any place?" The soldier could not help but smile.

The old man finally got angry and said loudly: "Not yet, don't question the great prophet. Just because it hasn't been filled yet, doesn't mean it won't be filled in the future!"
