"What wall is this?" Ning Gu looked at the white wall in front of him. +++ The latest Danmei novel ranking: EbookFREE.me
"It should be..." Lian Chuan switched from automatic driving to manual, slowly approaching the white wall, "I don't know how long ago the old city boundary of the main city was."
The main city is constantly collapsing.
This is a fact that almost everyone knows or even no longer knows how to know it, and destruction will definitely come based on this fact.
But until now, Lian Chuan can truly feel the scale of this collapse.
The ruins on the Black Iron Wasteland that they could see were nothing more than traces of these years, which most people still remember.
And the earlier times, the earlier collapse, the earlier main city, are probably just records that are no longer checked in the main city system.
And beyond this wall, it may be the borderless black iron wasteland that the main city has explored.
"Is the main city so big in the past?" Ning Gu got out of the skylight and climbed to the roof of the car to stand. "Can you be here all the time?"
"Theoretically, it should be like this." Lian Chuan looked at the screen and waited for the scan results to see if there were any gaps nearby that could reach the other side of the wall. "It's just that when the main city was this big, there was no us. It was a long time ago. It's up."
Especially after the population cleanup started, no one knows about the past.
"Speaking of which," Ning Gu said, "In fact, the so-called destruction has already begun. It started when the main city began to shrink and retreat a little bit, right."
"Yes," Lian Chuan said, "we are already standing in front of the end of destruction, it's not that we have emerged from the cracks as we thought."
"It's so slow," Ning Gu said.
"It's not all dull," Lian Chuan said, "didn't you show up?"
"You also appeared." Ning Gu said.
The scan results were similar to what Lian Chuan had judged. Some distance to the left, where the crack passed before, there was a gap torn by the crack on the white wall.
The car turned around and drove over there.
Ning Gu stood on the roof of the car, looking at the mountain-like wall that was constantly swept back.
"Why should there be such a wall?" He asked, "If it is just to declare sovereignty, it is not necessary to be so high, right?"
"There are no creatures over there." Lian Chuan said.
"Can you feel it?" Ning Gu asked.
"Well," Lian Chuan said, "When you first came to the main city, you hid beside the iron box behind the broken wall. I felt it."
Ning Gu lowered his head and glanced at him: "As expected, he is the most (strong qiang) hyena."
It didn't take long for them to see the gap.
A breach of several tens of meters, the walls above are still connected together, like a huge empty doorway.
When the car passed through the breach, Ning Gu raised his head and looked up.
The wall is very thick, much thicker than the current boundary wall of the main city.
"How much energy will it take to build the wall." He sighed.
"The main city now can't do it," Lian Chuan said. "At that time, there should be enough resources to afford large-scale equipment to do such a large-scale thing."
On the other side of the white wall, there is still a wasteland of black iron.
Ning Gu looked at the same scene as before, and was a little disappointed: "I thought there would be something different here."
"Three months of energy and supplies," Lian Chuan said, "maybe we have been driving for three months without returning, and that's still the case."
"Really." Ning Gu sighed softly.
"I saw the main city in that sealed room in Ye Xi," Lian Chuan said, "I can only see the part of the main city now. If that is some kind of hint, where we are now is itself It’s a place that no longer exists in the system, eternal and endless."
"When you first came out with me, you thought it might be like this, didn't you?" Ning Gu lay on the carriage, poking his head into the car.
"Well, I thought about it." Lian Chuan said.
"Then why don't you tell me," Ning Gu asked, "Why do you want to come out with me?"
"You want to go," Lian Chuan said, "and, in case it's not."
Ning Gu was stunned: "Is it that simple?"
"Otherwise," Lian Chuan said.
Ning Gu didn't speak, smiled, stretched out his hand and grabbed the top of Lian Chuan's head.
The car drove for a long time.
In the middle, Lian Chuan made two new flavours. One was a mixture of meat rou and (Milk Nai), and another Lian Chuan said egg and fruit were mixed together.
Ninggu can't eat a word, but Lian Chuan finds it delicious.
"I will try it next time," Ning Gu said.
"Do you think it tastes bad?" Lian Chuan asked.
"No." Ning Gu replied very crisply.
"Okay," Lian Chuan said, "You can do it next time."
"I'm also naive," Ning Gu said, "Listen to your questions."
"I think it's okay," Lian Chuan glanced at him, "but I know you find it unpalatable."
Ning Gu laughed: "You said you were miserable, no one can lie to you, no one can hide from you, you can always see the truth."
"I don't pay attention to others," Lian Chuan said. "Listen to your truth and look at your truth. There is no problem. If you say it is unpalatable, it won't hurt me."
"Really?" Ning Gu looked at him.
"Well," Lian Chuan nodded, "What you do will only taste worse."
In fact, driving the car so all the way to the end where I don’t know where is, it’s not easy to feel hungry.
Sitting in the car, looking at the surrounding scenery but not changing, chatting a few words from time to time, it is very relaxing, no consumption.
Even people like Ninggu who are easily hungry don't think they want to eat.
They don't even pay attention to time.
Time does not exist.
Now it is.
Such a boring and relaxing, purposeful but not necessarily a journey.
"There is something in the front right." Lian Chuan sat up straight.
Ning Gu, who had been lying halfway next to him, jumped up and crouched on the co-pilot chair and looked out.
In the blurry light, he saw a square object in front of his right.
"Manual?" he asked.
"Sure," Lian Chuan said as he drove the car over there, "it looks like a building."
"Whose house?" Ning Gu asked.
"That's not a'small' house," Lian Chuan glanced at him, "That thing is two kilometers away from us."
"Oh." Ning Gu looked over there, "That's huge."
"Yeah." Lian Chuan looked at the building that became clear a little bit on the screen.
Roughly a cube, there is nothing special about it. There is no guardrail, no wall, just standing alone on the wasteland.
"Can you feel anything?" Ning Gu asked, "Is there anything alive?"
"I didn't feel it," Lian Chuan said. "There should be no living bodies here. We haven't found any traces for so long."
"This can only be left over before the main city collapsed," Ning Gu stared at the square black shadow in the distance, "I don't know what it is, it's quite solid, it's been so many years... you see lost his way. The former ruins near the valley have fallen into disarray."
"It may be a more important place," Lian Chuan said. "The laboratories of Chun San can also be kept intact for a long time."
Ning Gu glanced at him: "Don't scare me, I don't want to get any more experimental subjects."
The receiver on the car made a beep.
Real-time information received is displayed on the screen.
"What information?" Ning Gu suddenly became a little nervous. He stood on the chair, leaned out the roof of the car and looked around, with a small golden light shining from his fingertips.
"The information in the same system as us," Lian Chuan said, "is from the main city."
"The main city? Isn't it impossible to reach this far in real time?" Ning Gu said, "Even if it is ordinary information, it should be received by the receiver. How could it be received by the system on the car?"
"It's the previous... the main city information." Lian Chuan didn't know what to say.
"Can you hear what it is?" Ning Gu asked.
"I don't know." Lian Chuan took the connect button.
-You have entered the scope of the main city defense system, please confirm your identity
A line of words flashed quietly on the screen.
"I want to confirm my identity." Lian Chuan said.
"How to confirm?" Ning Gu asked.
"...I don't know," Lian Chuan said, "the information can be received, but the system is no longer the same, there is no way to interact."
Ning Gu didn't speak, the golden light rolled out from under his feet, and instantly spread out of the entire body.
There were a few flashes of stars on the ground in front, very bright, and the flashing time was very short, almost leaving a residual shadow of a light spot in front of the eyes.
"There are weapons." Lian Chuan said.
"No attack?" Ning Gu looked over there with caution.
"The weapon has failed," Lian Chuan said, "there are no traces of the weapon scanned."
"Oh." Ning Gu was suddenly a little confused.
The car slowly approached the square building, and they could slowly see the overall structure of the building.
It used to be a complex of buildings, with walls and gates, and some traces can be seen on the ground. This building is the main body, not very high. It is about the same height as the third floor of the City Hall, but it covers a large area. Much.
Lian Chuan got out of the car and checked the flashing spot before.
It is a base on which a large weapon was once installed.
But the part above the pedestal was destroyed, and there was no way to see what kind of weapon it was.
The door of the building is facing them, and when you approach, you can see densely packed windows on the mottled, scarred wall.
The window frames and other things were gone, only the cavities lined up all over the wall, looking at them like eyes.
The door was locked, and Ning Gu raised his hand twice to cut the door open.
Very thick and large gates, according to the traditional thinking of the main city, there must be secrets hidden in such buildings that the civilians cannot know.
Just like the underground part of the three major buildings in the core area of Zone A.
But this building has no secrets. Although the door is still intact, the broken windows indicate that there will be no more secrets in it.
But as Ning Gu said, the building is very strong. When they walked through the gate, lights were on the surrounding walls. One after another, halo from outside to inside, from bottom to top, quickly All over the interior of the building.
Everything in the building is instantly visible.
This is a huge overall space. It can be seen that there are no floors, only countless metal arms criss-crossed, and iron cages hung below the metal arms.
There are also shelves arranged high on the top from the ground, and huge glass bottles on the shelves.
Of course the glass has been broken, but the metal fixing frame is still there, even Chuan can recognize it at a glance. Such an experimental chamber is still in use now.
"This is really a laboratory." Ning Gu's tone was full of disgust and disgust.
"Laboratories can do a lot of things, it's impossible without a laboratory," Lian Chuan patted him on the back, "it depends on what it is."
Ning Gu glanced at him: "Anyway, I don't have a good impression of the laboratory. What do you think this laboratory does?"
"I can't see it," Lian Chuan walked to a fixed frame and saw a thick layer of black (color) at the bottom, "This is a bit like..."
He reached out and pressed it, then squeezed some more and rubbed it in his hand.
"Like what?" Ning Gu also stretched out his hand (touching Mo), "Like mud?"
Lian Chuan glanced at him: "Yes."
"Ye Xi's world is everywhere," Ning Gu said.
"Now there are also in the main city laboratory, very few," Lian Chuan said, "cultivating a few plants."
"This scale..." Ning Gu looked around, "Does the previous main city still want those green (color) trees, grass, and flowers?"
"Probably," Lian Chuan sighed suddenly, "In the beginning, no one thought that in the end we would turn off the artificial starry sky."
"Someone!" Ning Gu went around behind a shelf and suddenly shouted.
Lian Chuan had already reached him when he shouted the first word, and then he was wrapped in Ning Gu's golden (color) light.
"Wrap yourself." Lian Chuan said.
He saw the direction of Ning Gu's line of sight. There was a table and a large chair behind the table.
There is a man on the chair.
To be precise, it should be a body.
Lian Chuan determined that this "person" had no life.
"Hey!" The silver (color) light beam under Ning Gu's feet began to extend to the side of the table, and he greeted the "person" behind the table with confidence.
Lian Chuan walked over.
After the distance is close, he can see, this may not even be a body.
This is a very old protective suit, but it seems to be complete.
What's inside... is a person who has been (dry gan) shrunken and black, most of which are broken into scum.
"Dead?" Ning Gu followed.
"It's been a long time." Lian Chuan walked over, hesitated, reached out and took off the helmet of the protective suit.
As the helmet was removed, a gas that had been sealed for an unknown period of time evacuated from the neckline wrapped in black ash.
"Ah--" Ning Gu took two steps back, fanning his hands desperately.
The person in the protective suit that was almost broken, instantly turned into a black (colored) powder.
"I seem to have sucked his ashes," Ning Gu frowned, "Who is this hapless guy..."
Lian Chuan didn't speak, he saw a pointed metal strip in the protective suit gloves, so he stretched out his hand on the table (touched Mo).
Under the thick dust, he (touching Mo) got to the table with words.
"What did you write?" Ning Gu leaned forward curiously.
The two of them ignored the dust, so they swept away the floating dust on the table with their arms.
Amidst the rising dust, they saw two lines on the table.
"I don't know who will see me, but at least you are still alive." Lian Chuan was using his hand (touching Mo) to engrave the two lines very deeply. The table is made of metal. Strength, this person is probably not an ordinary person, but an experimental subject, "I was born after everyone disappeared..."
"What do you mean?" Ning Gu asked.
"This laboratory should be still in operation when it was evacuated. This is an experimental subject that was'produced' after evacuated." Lian Chuan made a simple guess and looked at the words behind, "The information I received is no longer available. Passing, destruction is the inevitable ending, long and desperate."
After Lian Chuan finished reading, he glanced at Ning Gu.
"Nothing?" Ning Gu asked.
"Nothing." Lian Chuan said.
"Why can't he pass it?" Ning Gu said, "The main city didn't retreat to its current position from the beginning, can you walk past it?"
"He may have some flaws," Lian Chuan looked at the protective suit. "The meaning of being unable to pass it may mean that he will not live long at all. Normal subjects do not need protective suits."
"It's a pity," Ning Gu sighed after a long time. "He will never know that the world has not been destroyed... It is terrible to die with despair."
Lian Chuan did not speak, just opened his arms.
"Huh?" Ning Gu looked at him.
Lian Chuan still did not speak.
Ning Gu didn't ask any more, and hugged him in the past: "Don't be afraid."
"I'm not afraid." Lian Chuan said.
"Then you are trying to comfort me?" Ning Gu turned to look at him.
"I just want to hug," Lian Chuan said, "When can you not talk so much."
"My lips are not soft enough, so say something more to moisturize." Ning Gu said.
Lian Chuan laughed: "Too much hatred."
"When I was a child, the king of the land deceived me a button. I remember it till now." Ning Gu said, "He wants to be in front of me. I can still beat him for this button now."
Lian Chuan looked at him, moved forward, and kissed him on the lips.
