I am a sea king in the United States

Chapter 239 Spirit Cage World
Time turned and another month passed.

December 2011, 12.

In the early hours of the morning, Han Shaoqing, who was standing on Skull Island watching the Northern Lights, sensed that the [Bronze Gate] had opened again, and a series of messages came into his mind.

[The bronze door opens, searching across the world...]

[This search found two traversable worlds, the new Swordsman and the Spirit Cage, please choose to travel through the world. 】

[After traveling through the selected world, you need to wait for one month before you can re-travel to the new world or return to the universe. 】

[Please choose to travel through the world. 】

This time the [Bronze Gate] opened, and there was a little change, giving two travel worlds at once.

[New Swordsman] There is nothing to say in this world. The martial arts world described by Mr. Jin should be in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, which belongs to the world of low martial arts.

The martial arts in it are not attractive to Han Shaoqing today.

[Spiritual Cage] belongs to Guoman, and it tells the story of the near future, the world of human beings is already overcrowded, and the action of marching towards the galaxy and finding a new home is imminent.

While everything was progressing in an orderly manner, the phases of the moon changed, and the ground under our feet experienced drastic geological changes that lasted for decades. There were very few human beings left in this catastrophe.

After the catastrophe, a new ecosystem gradually emerged on the fragmented land, with weird plants shimmering in the night light, and ferocious monsters hunting and killing humans everywhere.

The creatures on the earth were almost extinct, and a floating fortress in the old world survived the catastrophe because of its uniqueness. The survivors in the sky named it "Lighthouse".

It means "illuminate the last future of mankind".

In order to deal with the threat of the doomsday more effectively, cold and harsh survival rules were conceived inside the lighthouse, and human beings can only barely survive in distortion and depression.

At the same time, keeping the lighthouse afloat requires constant energy supply. Under the increasing threat from the ground, they organized a combat team named "Wild Hunters".

The hunters are well-trained, and they can often bring back key materials such as energy, medicine and food from the ruins on the ground that are full of dangers.

However, even if it is as powerful as a hunter, it has never dared to step into the depths of the mysterious ecology to explore the truth of everything.

The world of the spirit cage can be said to be quite mysterious. Han Shaoqing hadn't seen the end before crossing, so his understanding was limited.

But that dog editor is really ruthless.

So far, all the couples who have appeared in the spirit cage world have not ended well, and the knives are thrown one after another!
I don't know if it is the anger from the single dog?
Or does the editor want to express the principle of survival first in the last days?
Compared to Swordsman, the spirit cage world is undoubtedly more dangerous, but for Han Shaoqing, the danger is negligible.

For Han Shaoqing, those beasts with near-immortality are just a bunch of moving check-in objects.

What a cosmic boss, who ruled all kinds of dissatisfaction.

The main reason why he chose this world was because he was a little uneasy about Ran Bing's death.

After thinking about it for a moment, Han Shaoqing put the Garuru beast into the [King's Treasure] space, and then chose to travel through the spirit cage world.

The light flashed, and when Han Shaoqing looked around, he was already in a desolate Gobi Desert.

Surrounded by long yellow sand, there are many human statues and some incomplete bones erected on the ground, and the breath of the doomsday wasteland blows towards the face.

Looking around, the weather here is dry, the air quality is poor, the highest temperature is 34.4°C, the air pressure is fairly stable, and no abnormal substances have been found. Apart from being relatively desolate, it is still suitable for human survival.

It's just that there are many unknown creatures around, and Han Shaoqing who possesses [All Things Red] can sense their existence, but it's not a cause for concern.

Those unknown creatures are ridge gu, which can be regarded as unique creatures in the spirit cage world.

With a wave of Han Shaoqing's hand, a magic teleportation array was opened, and the Garuru beast jumped out of it.

Han Shaoqing rode a Garuru beast and came to observe a humanoid statue.

These humanoid statues around are not works of art, they were once human!
The name in this world is "meat soil".

Because I haven't seen the complete [Spiritual Cage], Han Shaoqing doesn't quite understand many of the terms and the formation of meat and soil.

What Han Shaoqing knows is that meat soil can be regarded as the unreliable remains of human beings after death. The body is petrified, so it can be preserved for a long time.

The instigator, judging from the plot shown in the anime, is the "Mana Ecosystem".

At present, Han Shaoqing has very little information about the mana ecology, and only knows the information of several species that make up the mana ecology, such as the polar beast, the ridge gu, and the flower of mana.

Among them, the extreme beast can evolve by devouring the source of life, or hand it over to the flower of mana.

The source of life: similar to the soul in real human cognition, it exists in everyone, and the pole-devouring beast feeds on it.

In the old world of the spiritual cage, humans have discovered something that "receives information from the universe, stimulates human potential, and gives orders to genes and brains", and this thing is called paramatma.

After human beings are extracted from the source of life, the body will appear like petrification, turning into flesh and dirt.

And the 'Spine Gu' is the juvenile body of the Pole Devourer, or a small Pole Devourer, these things can release a special substance called [Skeletonin], and generally try to climb onto the back of humans to destroy the spine and control humans The central nervous system, while causing harm to humans with sharp limbs.

And people who are infected by [Skeletonin] will suffer from Sickness Disease, and the life source of the body will be slowly eroded, eventually turning into fleshy soil.

Under Han Shaoqing's observation, there are many ridges in the surrounding flesh and soil, just about to move.

In this world, ridge gu belongs to the low-end organisms in the mana ecosystem. It is widely distributed and has the largest number. It usually appears in various material collection points, and often accompanied by a large number of fleshy soil communities.

For these spine gus, humans are food.

Judging from the hole that was opened behind the surrounding meat soil, Han Shaoqing was sure.

These things use humans as their hosts, and after absorbing nutrients, they break out of their bodies.

Somewhat similar to Alien survival mode.

As for the flower of mana, Han Shaoqing didn't know what it was, but only knew that this plant would release a large amount of [fishy carnivorous element].

"Squeak~"

When Han Shaoqing was observing, a large group of ridges had already appeared in the surrounding meat soil one after another, and it seemed that he couldn't wait to eat.

Dense spines crawled out, at least thousands of them. These spines were covered with a thick layer of exoskeleton, and the segmented body structure made it very similar to the spine of a creature.

In fact, spine Gu can indeed parasitize on the human spine, control the central nervous system of human beings, and turn human beings into their own shells. This is also the most terrifying part of them.
