Chapter 803: Zero’s choice
Translator: 549690339
“At first, Lu Wu was confused about the star Fleet that appeared in the sky and the metal man that appeared in front of him. He didn’t know why it came to visit. ”
“But when he heard the metal man call him an “”intruder””, Lu Wu immediately thought of the origin of the metal man in front of him. ”
“The extraterrestrial Overlord who had established a massive technological Empire, the ‘sky machine Army’, with pure technological development in the outer realms: Zero! ”
“Thinking back to how he led the players to raid his hometown for mechanical energy, Lu Wu already realized that they were not here with good intentions. ”
“However, he did not believe that “”zero”” would dare to attack him here. ”
“This was because this place was under the jurisdiction of the Holy Spirit clan. No matter how strong zero ‘s’ heavenly machinery Army ‘was, they would not dare to fight against the Holy Spirit clan. ”
“Therefore, Lu Wu was very calm. ”
“Although he didn’t know where zero had gotten the information about him, he wasn’t afraid at all. ”
“When Lu Wu said his name, zero said indifferently,”” ”
“””You know who I am?”” ”
“””Of course, I have enough to buy information about you.”” Lu Wu said indifferently and then asked,”” ”
“””Then how did you know about me? Why are you looking for me again?”” ”
“””You led your people to attack my main base and stole a large amount of my resources. Why do you think I’m looking for you?”” ”
“(Author’s note: please read chapter 772 for this foreshadowing. When Lu Wu and the players destroyed the base of the heavenly machinery Army, the mainframe that chose to self-destruct bid farewell to the highest authority,’zero’.) ”
“””Revenge?”” Lu Wu asked curiously. ”
“””Yes, but I can give you two choices!”” Zero said with a smile. ”
“””Tell me about it, but I definitely won’t agree.”” Lu Wu said without a care. ”
“””First, you’ll pay ten times the losses. Second, you and your celestial demon Army will be destroyed!”” ”
“””You came all the way here just to threaten me?”” ”
“””Not entirely. I’m very curious now. Why aren’t you afraid at all? could it be that you still have a trump card in your hand that you think you can fight me?”” ”
“Lu Wu didn’t deny this but nodded his head,”” ”
“””That’s right. Not only do I have the confidence to defend against your attack, but I also have the confidence to destroy your heavenly machinery Army. Do you believe me?”” ”
“After hearing this, a series of data flashed in front of Zero’s eyes. She analyzed what Lu Wu said and came up with a probability, as well as the possible unknown situation and other details. ”
“Then, after searching from Lu Wu’s facial expression to the existing information about the “”sky demon Army””, a trace of surprise flashed in Zero’s eyes.”” ”
“””Can you tell me what your secret is? If I believe that your secret can really do that, then I will choose to leave!”” These words might sound coy, but zero said them in a state of absolute rationality. ”
“Because in Zero’s opinion, there was nothing wrong with what he said. As long as Lu Wu was willing to reveal a part of his secret, he would confirm that Lu Wu really had the strength to compete with him, then he would not attack Lu Wu and the sky demon Army. ”
“The so-called revenge was a very emotional thing. In Zero’s eyes, it was only about weighing the pros and cons. ”
“If Lu Wu really had that kind of strength, starting a war with him would definitely cause more losses, which was not worth it for zero. ”
“In Zero’s opinion, it was too emotional to lose more benefits in order to get compensation. ”
“In the same way, if Lu Wu revealed some of his secret information, Lu Wu could also reduce the losses caused by the war. ”
“Therefore, zero thought that letting Lu Wu reveal the secret was a move that would benefit both sides. ”
“Of course, this was just Zero’s analysis. Lu Wu would not think this way at all. ”
“This was because if his secret was exposed, the first person to kill him would not be zero, but the spiritking. ”
“So, as Lu Wu said before, he would not agree to any conditions. ”
“Looking at Lu Wu, who shook his head and refused, a series of data flashed in front of Zero’s eyes again. This time, he didn’t say anything. His body floated up and he headed towards the Mainship. ”
“Looking at zero who was leaving, Lu Wu suddenly said,”” ”
“””Zero, how about we make a deal? I think I have something you need!”” ”
“After hearing this, zero stopped and landed in front of Lu Wu again, waiting for him to continue. ”
“””I guess you haven’t found the way to immortality yet, am I right?”” Lu Wu said with a smile. ”
“Hearing this, Zero’s expression remained calm.”” ”
“””Yes, I’m still evolving. I’m still far from the end!”” ”
“””It’s useless no matter how much you evolve. You’ll never reach the end because the creator of this firmament world was a cultivator. He didn’t walk the path of Science and Technology. Perhaps you can become very strong by jumping out of this world’s Science and Technology side. However, in this world created by deceiving cultivators, the soul is the foundation. You’re lacking the most important thing that all extraterrestrial creatures have!”” ”
Lu Wu had his own considerations when he said this.
“This was because zero reminded him of AI ke, the strongest NPC in the hell server. ”
“Even though Aike’s ability was not as powerful as zero ‘s, he was still a living being. ”
“The way they evolved was the same, which was to constantly transform their own bodies and upgrade themselves. ”
“From the state of life 1.0, it was slowly being upgraded to a higher level. ”
“However, just as he had said, no matter how much this life form evolved, it would never reach the end. ”
“This was because the main theme of this world was the cultivation test. Although technology could also become powerful, technology could not become the top power. ”
“Whether it was The Fiend clan, the insect clan, or even the Holy Spirit clan, which was the most powerful force at the present stage, all of them cultivated using a growth-testing system. It was just that they used different methods. ”
“However, zero was different. Zero was purely a technological development. As it did not have a soul, it could not cultivate. ”
“Hearing Lu Wu’s words, a series of data flashed across Zero’s eyes. ”
“Even though she was shocked, under her absolute rationality, this emotion did not affect Zero’s judgment and thinking. ”
“At this moment, he suddenly realized that Lu Wu seemed to have something he wanted. ”
“As for what this item was, zero had once sought help from the most powerful and omniscient spiritking in the outer realm. She was even willing to offer a large amount of resources as a bargaining chip. ”
“However, the spiritking had rejected him. He had not even told him if this was possible. ”
“Thinking of this, zero raised his head. ”
“””You mean?”” ”
“””Soul!”” After saying these two words, Lu Wu laughed. ”
“Because in his eyes that were flashing with silver light, he read the message ‘transaction successful’. ”
“””You can help me shape a soul?”” Zero’s tone was calm, but his silver eyes were flashing. ”
“””I can, but you have to tell me what you can do in exchange!”” ”
“””I can give you whatever you want!”” Zero said without hesitation. ”
“In fact, Lu Wu had greatly underestimated Zero’s desire for souls. At her level, she had already discovered the flaws in her own evolutionary path. For this reason, she had tried many ways, but none of them worked. ”
“Through his experiments and self-awareness, zero finally realized one thing. What he lacked was the least scarce, but most important thing in the outer realm: Soul Source. ”
“As Lu Wu said, this was a world of cultivators. ”
“The strongest power only belonged to the cultivators. Without a soul, they would not even have the chance to come into contact with the ultimate laws. They could not even bear the weight of ordinary great Dao laws with their pure metal bodies. ”
“The development of science and Technology was too extreme. Although it had the characteristics of rapid development and maximum combat efficiency, in this world created by cultivators, there were also many limitations. ”
“Unless they could break through this firmament world, the development of technology would be bound by all the laws of the outer realm, and they would not be able to grow endlessly. ”
“But to break through this world, one first needed extremely powerful strength, and to obtain extremely powerful strength, one must have a soul that could bear the power. ”
“This was without a doubt an endless loop. This was also the reason why “”zero”” had gone to find the spiritking in the hopes of obtaining his help. ”
“Even though the spiritking had rejected him, he had never given up. ”
This was the first decision he made when he thought about it.
What was the meaning of living?
“Since he had chosen this path, he would not stop until he was immortal! ”
“At this moment, when Lu Wu said that he could give him a soul, although zero was shocked, after analyzing the data, she thought that the credibility was only: 2.5124% ”
“The reason was simple. He had done a lot of research in this area, so he knew how difficult it was to cast a soul. It was almost impossible to accomplish. ”
Unless that person had the ability to control the soul source’s soul power at will.
“Although there were many experts who could possess and erase other people’s souls, the control of soul power and the obliteration of souls were two completely different concepts. ”
“To Zero’s knowledge, no one in the outer realms had such power. ”
“If there was one, it would only be the strongest, the spiritking. ”
“So, zero didn’t believe Lu Wu’s words because the probability was too low. ”
“However, even if it was only a 0.001% chance, zero didn’t want to miss it. That was why he said this, wanting to know what Lu Wu really needed. ”
“””I heard that you have an extreme Dao law?”” Lu Wu asked curiously. ”
“””Yes!”” Zero didn’t deny this. ”
“Through evolution after evolution, he had once yearned to be able to load ultimate maxims. ”
“Even though he couldn’t challenge the limit peak without a soul, he didn’t give up. Instead, he killed an expert who had just challenged the limit peak and seized the extreme law that hadn’t been fully integrated in his body. ”
“What made Zero Feel regretful was that it turned out that his mechanical body could not be loaded with Gokudo laws at all, no matter how he tried. ”
“Therefore, this ultimate Maxim was only a bargaining chip in his hands. It was of little value to him. ”
“If Lu Wu really had such an ability, zero would naturally be willing to exchange it with the extreme Dao laws in her hands. ”
“After confirming that zero had an extreme law in her hand, Lu Wu smiled happily. Then, he waved his hand and a soul power Mist appeared in his hand, which began to circle around his finger. ”
“Looking at the soul Qi mist, data flashed across Zero’s eyes. The internal database was activated. Then, she suddenly said, ”
“””If I’m not wrong, the person the Holy Spirit clan has been looking for recently is you!”” ”
“””That’s right. If you want to cast a soul, I can give it to you. However, you’ll be on my ship from now on. The spiritking will be your enemy as well. It’ll just be up to you if you dare!”” ”
“””There is no end without a soul. This is my choice!”” Zero answered with a smile. ”
“In a state of absolute rationality, he would only weigh the pros and cons and would not be dominated by fear, even if the enemy was the Holy Spirit race. ”
“This was because he knew that only with a soul could there be infinite possibilities. Without a soul, he would only be making no progress if he continued to evolve, and he would never be able to achieve immortality. If so, his initial choice to evolve would have no meaning in living. ”
“If Lu Wu could give him a path to immortality, then all other benefits were not worth mentioning. ”
“Seeing that zero agreed so decisively, Lu Wu was also very surprised. ”
“However, as long as “”Zero’s”” soul was cast, it would not be able to break free after leaving a soul mark in the divine artifact. Lu Wu was not afraid. ”
“As he thought of this, Lu Wu suddenly asked curiously,”” ”
“””By the way, what’s that ultimate Maxim in your hands?”” ”
“””Seal the heavens!”” ”
