The lifeblood was the raw material used by the Goddess of Creation to create all beings in the world. It represented the sacred substance of the origin of life in the Plane of Dreams. Although it was only a component of the Seed of Origin and the First Born, it had unquestionable sacredness. Why would such a thing, which was beyond the rank of mortals, be afraid of a little fish that was only a foot long?
Hao Ren took some samples from the blood pool and took Lil Pea to a house far away from the square to do the experiment. The result of the experiment was still the same. As long as the little mermaid approached the liquid, the lifeblood would immediately show signs of losing activity and even actively retreating. He put the lifeblood in a transparent container and let the little mermaid look at the liquid from the outside of the container. The latter almost stuck to the side wall of the glass tube.
After several tests, he also found a strange phenomenon: Lil Pea seemed to be able to control her 'power' a little.
When the little mermaid looked at the lifeblood or focused her attention on the lifeblood, the latter's' retreat 'phenomenon would be more obvious. But if the little mermaid diverted her attention, this' suppression 'would be greatly reduced, and even no suppression effect would occur to a certain extent. After several experiments by Hao Ren, the little mermaid was a little impatient. She no longer paid attention to the 'red water' in the container, and the latter's activity was restored little by little.
Lil Pea bounced around on the table and finally jumped to Hao Ren's arm like an armband. She hung on it and stopped moving. The lifeblood in the test container returned to its slow-flowing state, but at a slightly slower speed than before. Hao Ren touched the little mermaid's tail and said to them, "It seems that the key to the suppression effect is the little mermaid's' attention '. When she concentrates, she will exert an influence on the lifeblood."
"The lifeblood has no clear will, it doesn't even have the ability to perceive," Y 'zaks scratched his big bald head. Although the demon king was knowledgeable, he was a little confused at this time. "And why would it be afraid of a fish?"
"Rollie is also afraid of Lil Pea!" Lily said casually.
"Go away. This is not the same thing." Hao Ren waved her away and then looked at the MDT beside him. "Did you find any other special abilities in Lil Pea when you examined her before?"
"She does have a lot of special abilities, the ability of a demon-hunting fish," the MDT buzzed. "But I don't think she has the special abilities you mentioned. She's just an ordinary fish. At most, she's a little more energetic and likes to beat up cats."
"It's impossible for a demon hunter's talent to produce such an effect." Hao Ren frowned. "Nangong Sanba has also touched the lifeblood, but there was no reaction at all. Moreover, the lifeblood was such a high-level thing. How could a mere demon hunter interfere with it? To put it bluntly, they're just cyborgs created by the ancient mage emperors. "
"Could it be because Lil Pea's bloodline is purer?" Lily gently wagged her tail, which was a sign that she was thinking seriously. "After all, she has been processed in the Sacred Relic of Origins. According to her bloodline, she can even be a grand-master to a demon hunter like Suha."
Hao Ren spread out his hand. "Even the purest demon hunter is a derivative of the derivative of the derivative of the lifeblood, right?"
While they were discussing and studying the problem, Muru had been watching the situation here through the communicator outside the town. The giant had learned about the phenomenon between Lil Pea and the lifeblood, and had discussed a lot of things with Zorm. At this time, his voice suddenly sounded in the communication channel. "I suddenly remembered something. Do you remember a few months ago, when you tested Zorm's ability to control the lifeblood in CARS? It happened next to the culture pool. At that time, the lifeblood suddenly lost its activity, just like today. Was your daughter there at that time? "
Reminded, Hao Ren also remembered it. He suddenly slapped his head and said, "Yes, Lil Pea was there at that time!"
"However, this still can't explain why they sensed each other." The MDT knocked on the table with its shell. Of course, this action could also be seen as knocking its head on the table. "I've recorded all the information between Lil Pea and the lifeblood, and found no logical internal connection. This is not magic, nor is it superpower. Lil Pea did not release any power. It seems to be a simple instinct of the lifeblood, as if it was born to fear a mermaid, even though the mermaid was only a foot long and had not even learned to speak."
The group of people discussed for a long time without any results, whether it was the actual test or the data analysis by the MDT, there was no clue. Hao Ren felt that it was a waste of time to study this problem now, so he stood up and said, "Write down this question. After we finish this task, go to Raven 12345 and ask what's going on. She sent Lil Pea here, she should know something."
The others agreed. At this time, they could only pin their hopes on the silly goddess.
Hao Ren and his team pushed the door open and saw Ulyanov loitering at the door. He was not driven out. In fact, he was also in the house at first. But Hao Ren's test quickly developed to a stage where he could not understand it. So the Zormian, who was still suffering from memory disorder, simply sought peace outside. He came up to ask if there was a problem with the blood pool. He looked very worried. The blood pool was the most important thing in the Zormian society today. It was the only way for them to return to the real world and the source of population. If this thing was unreliable, then there was nothing else in the world that was reliable.
"The blood pool is fine. It's just an accident." Hao Ren patted Ulyanov on the shoulder to reassure him. "Is the person who 'failed to teleport' okay? Has he safely returned to the virtual world or what? "
"The person is fine." Ulyanov nodded. "The birth is divided into two steps. The body that comes out of the blood pool is just a body assembled according to the gene bank. Then we have to touch the signal tower to reinstall our soul into the body. It is said that this process is to save bandwidth and prevent the soul from being installed in the new body when it is defective. The person who was' stuck 'today has been born successfully, just half an hour late. "
Hao Ren nodded in relief. He then casually said, "By the way, you should quickly renovate the area around the blood pool. At least build a house or something on top of the pool. It's not appropriate to leave it in the open."
Ulyanov laughed. "The next step is the construction plan in this area. In fact, this town has just been formed not long ago. We are already struggling to provide housing and food for the existing population. To build a large 'resurrection greenhouse' is a big project for us. "
Y 'lisabet looked at the shabby buildings around and suddenly asked curiously, "Why don't you go to live in those golden cities? Wasn't Alamanda a ready-made shelter for them? Although it needs to be tidied up, the houses are ready-made and sturdier than your simple houses. Err, I mean the ones that haven't collapsed. "
Hao Ren also nodded. "Oh yes, if Y 'lisabet didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. You can use those city ruins at will. Anyway, the necessary preservation work of civilization has been completed, and the rest are just supplies. Now the living are more important. "
Ulyanov had just woken up not long ago. He did not seem to understand these things at all. He just saw the magnificent outbuildings of Alamanda on the high ground from a distance and realized that there was a magnificent alien ruin there. But before the idea of moving in came to mind, Ulyanov's mind went blank. But at this time, a Zorm man passing by heard the conversation. He took the initiative to explain. "Although we want to, it's not realistic at the moment."
The man who spoke was a tall, dark-skinned man. Hao Ren did not know him. He was probably not a member of the Grey Fox mercenary group. The dark-skinned man explained, "At this stage, we can't go too far away from the blood pool and the signal tower. These two things are the key to connecting the virtual world and the real world, but there are no such facilities in the city ruins. And there is no water and food in the ruins, no supplies from the natural world, and it's too far from the supply point. At first, a small group of people settled in the city ruins, but they found that supply and communication were a problem, so they withdrew. Now there are only a few outposts left in a few ancient buildings around the city. The only advantage of that place is that the houses are sturdier. But to be honest, this is not too important at the moment. "
Hao Ren then realized why these Zorm people would rather build settlements in the wild than live in Alamanda. When he built infrastructure on this planet, he consciously bypassed all the Tannaeans' ruins, including 80% of the autonomous factories were also set up in the wild, and only a few production facilities were placed in the city. Now the Zorm people needed more than just sturdy houses to survive in this world. They also needed to rely on the blood pool, signal tower, forests, and natural rivers to survive, and these things were not available in the ruins of the alien city.
But he knew that this should be temporary. After the Zorm people stored enough food, explored the surrounding terrain, acquired basic production tools, and the experience of reclaiming the wilderness, they would certainly move to the city ruins left by the Tannaeans, and eventually form a series of strip of population distribution between the blood pool and the city.
After all, they still needed shelter from the wind and rain. The first winter on this planet would not be very friendly to them.
