Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 421 Early Enlightenment · Star Zhi Gu

"......ha?"

Seeing that Mobius looked confused, Jiang Ming patiently explained: "I invested in you with the Gu worm, and there will definitely be other investments in the future. In comparison, Dr. Mobius, you haven't helped me much yet, so it should be reasonable for you to help me a little in the future, right?"

"What? Your investment in me is not just to make me, or let us, defeat Honkai?"

"No, no, no, Dr. Mobius, without me, you wouldn't try to defeat the Honkai? Of course not! You would still try to defeat the Honkai, and my investment would only make it easier for you to take a simple and broad shortcut."

"In comparison, my companions and I need to take deep roots and build a solid foundation here, and the biggest network we have right now is you, Doctor. The investment in defeating Honkai will not produce results in a short period of time, or even within a few years, so before that, Doctor, it's just a matter of convenience for you to help us with some small favors, isn't it?" Jiang Ming's eyes were filled with clarity, which was completely different from his previous appearance.

"You...then we may need to renegotiate the terms." Mebius thought he seemed to have suffered a loss.

But Jiang Ming sighed and retorted: "Doctor, you were supposed to fight against Honkai anyway. I gave you two Zhidao Gu worms based on the original premise. One can speed up your own thinking, and the other can influence the thinking of others."

"Which of these two Gu insects is not suitable for your situation? Don't you even have the chance to help us in the future? Besides, you should really want to study the corpse of the Second Herrscher, right? Although I may not give you the Fire Moth, I have at least restored the original crushed corpse for you. You can use the power of the Fake Gu to get the corpse."

"How many of you are there in total?"

"There will be at least double digits. They will all join the Fire Moth. You don't have to worry about them, Doctor."

"......"

"Why shouldn't I worry? There are at least 20 of you who want to infiltrate the Fire Moth. Suddenly there are so many people like you. At the very least, they are second only to you. Do you think the top leaders of the Fire Moth are all brainless monkeys?"

"I am very grateful that the doctor is so concerned about us, but your worry is unnecessary. Please do not underestimate my plan and methods. The Fire Moth will not find out. Just think of it as recruiting new soldiers."

"......"

Mebius raised his eyebrows slightly: "Tell me something so important? You should know how dangerous I am in the Fire Moth Chaser. If I get too close to you, won't it arouse suspicion?"

"Most people have things they want to do, and many of them will not have any intersection with you. I will arrange spies for this aspect, so now let's talk about the covenant."

"Covenant...?"

Jiang Ming nodded: "Yes, fate is unpredictable. We need to consider that both parties will never betray each other, so we need to make an agreement. This is the bottom line. I hope the doctor will forgive me."

Mebius exhaled softly upon hearing this: "A verbal agreement? Or a piece of paper?"

"Neither, Doctor, look at this."

Jiang Ming flipped his right hand and took out another poisonous insect. This insect was a hyena, with a sturdy and extremely plump body. It had a pair of huge pincers on its head and emitted a strange glow all over its body. It was definitely not an insect that could be bred on Earth.

"This is.......?"

"This is a channeling Gu worm. There are numerous schools of thought on the rules of the universe, and each school of thought has different ways. For example, the way of fire is about the effects of flames, the way of wisdom is about the effects of calculation and thinking, and the channeling has three main uses—"

"1 Collect and save information. For example, when a detective solves a case, he or she needs to find important information and evidence, right? With the channel method, this process will be easy."

"2. To spread information, you can use the means of channels to convey the information you want to convey to the person you want to convey it to. It may sound a little weak, but there are too many ways to isolate communication in this world. For example, the power of the Third Herrscher is the electromagnetic field. Once it is activated, no matter how profound the civilization of this world is, it is impossible to use electronic products such as mobile phones to spread information. However, if the channel is at a high level, it is easy to contact another person even across the galaxy and the universe."

"3 is what we are about to do, and it is also the most important point. It requires multiple people to make a covenant and not betray each other. Once they betray, they will be severely retaliated. At the very least, they will bleed from all seven orifices, and at the worst, they will die on the spot. In addition to this, there is..."

"And the rules of the universe also have realms of cultivation, which are divided into five major realms - entry, minor success, general enlightenment, major success and perfection, and four minor realms - initial stage, middle stage, late stage and peak stage. The two Gu insects I gave you are both in the entry and late stages."

Jiang Ming spoke quickly and eloquently, while Mebius continued to think and absorb this special knowledge.

Back to the original topic, the channel insect in Jiang Ming's right hand slowly floated in the air, just hovering in front of Jiang Ming and Mebius. The latter was the first to ask: "What is the name of this insect? What is its function?"

"The Gu is called Star Oath, and its function is to establish a covenant. To tell you the truth, my channel universe rules are only in the middle stage of minor success, while this information Gu is in the early stage of enlightenment."

This Star Oath Gu naturally came from the true meaning of [Jiang Ming] in the dream. It not only has a large number of entry-level and minor-successful Gu worms, but also Gu worms at the enlightenment level.

And it can ignore the difference in realm. Even if Jiang Ming's channel universe rules are only in the middle stage of minor success, he can also use this enlightenment level channel insect.

"So, what is the function of this insect?"

"It's very simple. When we use this insect to make an oath, we need to choose a planet. As long as this planet does not perish, the oath between us will stand forever. And because my channel of the universe rules is only at the middle stage of minor success, even I cannot break such an oath. Dr. Mobius, this is absolutely fair to you and me." Jiang Ming said sincerely after explaining.

"Pick a planet?"

Jiang Ming nodded: "That's right, but nothing can be perfect. The Star Oath Gu also has a shortcoming. As long as we choose to destroy the planet where we make the covenant, the original oath will become invalid."

"......"

He saw that Mebius's fair and pretty face was twitching slightly, as if he hadn't reacted to his leisurely and matter-of-fact remarks.

Jiang Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I know how difficult it is for the current civilization to completely destroy a planet. That's why this Star Oath Gu is very suitable for us now, isn't it? In this case, let's talk about cooperation."

"Wait, which planet are you going to use?"

Facing Mobius's question, Jiang Ming smiled faintly and opened his arms slightly: "Isn't there a good planet right now? How about we use the Earth as our base?"
