After listening to Varro's words, Chu Hao fell into deep thought.
In fact, when he watched the movie "The Mist", he had a big doubt. That was, why did the supermarket still exist in the movie?
Logically speaking, since there were so many humans in the supermarket, the air they breathed would definitely fall into the fog, and the monsters would definitely have a keen sense of smell. Just think about it, when the humans rushed into the fog, the monsters would attack them in less than ten seconds. This was enough to prove that the monsters' senses were very sharp.
In the plot, when the protagonists went to the pharmacy next to the supermarket to look for medicine, it had already been occupied by a kind of spider monster. The humans inside were also used as incubators and food for the spider monster. In addition, in the original movie, the protagonist's home, the villa in the countryside with broken windows, had also been invaded by the spider monster. Therefore, it could be imagined that even if the protagonists hid in the house, they could not escape the attacks of these monsters.
Then why were the people in the supermarket spared? Although they were afraid and even attacked by giant mosquitoes and flying creatures that caught mosquitoes at night, in fact, the supermarket really belonged to the safe zone in the entire plot. What was the reason?
It wasn't until Varo said so much that Chu Hao finally understood the reason … These creatures came from places where the spiritual energy condensed into mist. There were even many places where there might be liquid spiritual energy lakes. They had already gotten used to so much spiritual energy. If they went to a place without spiritual energy, although they wouldn't die like humans who lost oxygen, it would at least weaken them. Creatures had self-protection characteristics, so they wouldn't, or rather, it would be very difficult for them to enter a place without mist. Therefore, they also protected the humans in this supermarket.
Even if the unique characteristic that Varro mentioned could ignore the civilization of other planes, when it was just connected to another plane, the difference between the two planes was still very huge. For example, one plane had unimaginable spirit energy, while the other plane was empty. It was impossible that the other plane would be full of spirit energy as soon as you invaded it, right? Therefore, it took time for spirit energy to spread. During this process, as long as the fog was isolated as possible and stayed in places with many people (spirit energy would be unconsciously absorbed by humans), the danger would be minimized.
However, this was not a long-term solution. Once the world was filled with spiritual energy, it would be the end of the world … However, there was something that Chu Hao was puzzled about. In the original plot, the mist had indeed dissipated, causing the creatures from the other planes to weaken to the point where the human army could exterminate them. However, the destruction of the entire plane did not occur.
Either the initial exploration of the only plane had ended and they were about to officially invade, or the connecting passage to the plane had naturally closed due to various accidents. If it was the former, then the plane would naturally be destroyed. If it was the latter, then there was still a chance to save the plane. However …
Chu Hao suddenly asked Varo, "Varo, you mentioned before that other planes are automatically connected to this special plane, right?"
Varo was still in the form of a jelly, rolling inconspicuously beside the shelf. After hearing that, he replied through the Soul Chain, "Yes. Due to certain special reasons, most of the planes that were destroyed by special planes are automatically connected to this special plane."
"Then … Is it possible that the place that this movie world is connected to is located in an extremely remote part of the special plane?"
Chu Hao chose his words carefully and said, "According to what you said, we can generally infer that this special plane is extremely powerful. This is because this is a relative situation. When the defense of the Civilization Monolith is ineffective against this special plane, relatively speaking, the Civilization Monolith of this plane is basically ineffective against the connected planes. Of course, I'm not sure about this situation. What do you think? Varo. "
Varo said with certainty, "Yes, you're right. In fact, it's not that the Civilization Monolith of this special plane is ineffective. To be precise, it should be that this special plane contains the Civilization Monolith of all other planes, so it appears ineffective … However, this is only a speculation. At that time, the wise man in my team deduced it based on various information."
Chu Hao nodded and said, "Then, based on this speculation, this special plane must be extremely powerful, and not just in terms of individual strength. I'm talking about the strength of the civilization level. Whether it's technology, magic, cultivation, or even humanities, administrative power, etc., they must be extremely powerful and high-level. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to organize a collective operation to invade and destroy a plane."
"That's right …" Varo's voice seemed to be filled with pain as he said, "It's an extremely advanced civilization. The level of the civilization is very high, and the application of energy has reached an extremely high level. Whether it's low-level heat, electricity, kinetic energy, gravitational energy, or high-level spiritual energy, faith energy, or spiritual energy, this civilization can use them all very efficiently. The civilization is very advanced, and its strength is unparalleled. Moreover, this civilization has its own promotion route. Even if you're a civilian, as long as you're a human, or an orthodox human born in this plane, you can enjoy the benefits of the plane invasion brought about by the destruction of countless planes and trillions of lives. Basically, you don't have to worry about food and clothing from childhood to adulthood, and the civilization is extremely developed. Under such circumstances, at least 95% of the humans in this plane are in favor and fanatically support the invasion and destruction of planes.
"Under such a policy, the civilization of this plane has formed a set of action organizations against plane invasion, plane plundering, plane destruction, and plane annihilation. Moreover, 80% of the promotion routes in this civilization are related to these organizations. You can imagine what this means." "Not only that, there are three major academies in this plane.
These academies are completely owned by the higher-ups of this plane, and they specialize in training the vanguard of the plane invasion. They have a lot of interplanar weapons. For example, I know that there's a type of interplanar combat weapon called the Daoist Dark Yellow Warship. It's terrifyingly powerful. It's said that as long as thousands of these warships are gathered together, they can rival a Sage for a short period of time, and they can ignore most of the principles of the plane's civilization. There's also something called the Primordial Sky Splitting Grenade. It's said that once … "
"That's enough."
Chu Hao's heart was already heavy. He interrupted Varo's words and said, "What I want to ask is, when a plane unintentionally connects to a special plane, this special plane doesn't notice it. Or does it not notice it in a short period of time? "
Varo immediately said with certainty, "Of course there is. The situation of this special plane is very special. It's not a planetary universe like the most common plane, but a plane with a spherical sky and an unimaginably huge land. A mountain may be as big as a planet, but the gravity there is not exaggerated. The sun also rises in the east and sets in the west. It goes back and forth day by day. It's the most special plane with countless unsolved mysteries. That civilization … Well, at least the civilization I know about 18,000 years ago, even though it was already so powerful, it still only occupied less than one-tenth of the plane's land. And as more and more planes were destroyed and plundered, this special plane kept growing bigger and bigger. So no matter how the humans there multiply, the proportion of the land they occupied will only get smaller and smaller. So it can be said that 99% of the plane's connections will not be discovered by that civilization. I remember that Shang Qing Academy of the three academies has a department called Connection Point Detection. The students in that department are specially trained to detect such hidden connection points in remote places."
After listening, Chu Hao pondered for a moment, then said, "If it's an extremely remote plane connection point, and it's not known to outsiders, then how long will it take for such a connection point to be discovered by the plane's civilization?"
Varo suddenly fell silent. After a long time, he said, "If it's not discovered by the students of the Detection Department, and it's in an extremely remote place, then it's safe for five to seven days because the plane's civilization is already extremely developed. Although there's no way to control such a huge special plane, according to the flow of spiritual energy and various methods, such as gravity waves, spirit particle feedback, and so on, it's estimated that the plane's civilization will discover the connection point in five to seven days. Of course, in most cases, the plane's connection point is extremely fragile. Normally, it will automatically close in two to three days, and that special plane's energy level is too high. Once it closes, it's almost impossible for the plane's civilization to discover any clues, unless … someone is supporting this connection point."
Only then did Chu Hao let out a breath and said, "I understand … In this case, the first three days are the basic safe period. After three days, whether the fog dissipates or not, it's time for us to fight for our lives …"
"And … this can also verify one of my conjectures about the purpose of the existence of the main gods …"
"The main gods … Do they want us to experience danger to become stronger, or do they want us to become stronger while saving the plane, saving the world, and saving humanity?"
"There are still three days … If the fog dissipates naturally, then it's the former. If something unexpected happens in this foggy movie world, then it's the latter. The most likely is …"
Chu Hao stood up and silently looked up at the ceiling. He said through the soul link, "The fog can't disappear naturally …"
