Because there is no light pollution from city lights, the starry sky in the desert appears even brighter, and the constellations completely different from those on the earth form a colorful starry sky.
Lu Jian saw that there were some vacant positions in the starry sky.
According to the perspective of the earth, these stars are definitely not on the same plane, but come from the light of stars at different distances. Therefore, when you look up at the starry sky from the earth, you can see that the sky is full of stars, with almost no gaps, but you can still catch a glimpse of them.
The dense sea of stars in the Milky Way.
But in the starry sky of the wasteland, there are some obvious open areas. In that area, not a single star lights up, which looks extremely abrupt.
In this situation, it is easy for people to think of some inappropriate situations.
For example, the stars in that area, both far and near, were obliterated by some destructive force.
For example, there is a being in that area that is so huge that humans cannot imagine it, and its body blocks the starlight coming from this direction.
For another example, this starry sky is inherently false, and this gap is just a bug in the system.
The lights gradually go out. There are two types of lights in the wasteland. The city roads use a special kind of bug. This bug emits light just like fireflies, but it cannot fly. As long as it is put into a jar, it can maintain light.
, every day, city administrators will add food to these bugs to ensure their survival.
In the wasteland, at least in Utopia, glass appeared very early. The most indispensable thing here is all kinds of sand. Although the quality of the glass produced after melting and cooling at high temperature is not excellent, it is at least transparent.
What most people use in their homes is the secretion of another kind of insect, which can be ignited and burn quietly for a whole night.
Life in the wilderness is inseparable from insects.
"This is the dilemma the wasteland faces now."
Lu Tan looked at the insect lanterns lit in the room and said.
"Whether it is the Yelang Guards or the Yellow Sand Brotherhood, they have not realized the most fundamental problem, which is that most of the resources in the wasteland are based on the insect swarm."
Whether it is food, daily necessities, fuel, or clothing, they are all covered with bugs.
People rely on bugs and various derivatives to survive to this day.
Lu Jian noticed that although there were oases and water sources in the city, there was almost no planting industry. Of course, the area of the oasis was not large enough for large-scale agricultural planting, but it was conceivable that people in Utopia probably did not know how to farm.
The barren natural conditions made the residents of Utopia become nomads. They developed various uses of bugs and led to their current life.
After all, compared with crops that are difficult to grow and have to compete with people for water, the inexhaustible supply of insects is more convenient. Just remove the heads and you can eat them, chicken-flavored, crunchy and crunchy.
But the residents of Utopia did not expect that one day the insects would also finish eating.
Now, after losing the contact with the old ruler, the number of insects in the wasteland will no longer increase.
Eat one, lose one.
The ecology related to insects will completely collapse, and after the storm arrives, the entire world's environment will undergo earth-shaking changes. If you cannot adapt to the next changes and remain stubborn, then the only way is destruction.
Thinking of this, Lu Jian also had some intuitive understanding of the "rules" of Utopia.
Most of the rules of Utopia serve only one goal, which is to maintain the existence of Utopia, and order is necessary to maintain the existence of this city.
Chaos and excessive freedom will only promote corruption, but absolute justice can ensure the normal operation of Utopia. Therefore, Utopia will choose the direction of justice.
But its rules cannot meet the future and cannot respond promptly to changes in the outside world. Therefore, even if giving up exploration will cause Utopia to collapse in the torrent of subsequent times, this is not something that the current Utopia can foresee.
After all, it is just a city with extraordinary power, not a god with life and consciousness.
"The storm is coming."
Feng Yu said.
What she was looking at was not the starry sky, but the intersection of the night and the sand dunes in the distance. There was nothing there, but a certain sense of anxiety that transcended physics spread over her, like the subtle sound of electricity echoing in her ears before a rainstorm.
Lu Jian's mission also mentioned storms. It seems that Utopia will definitely experience a thorough heavy rain, washing away all the old things.
At this moment, Lu Jian, who followed Feng Yu's words and looked over, noticed that there seemed to be a shadow that was about to move in the night.
His [True Sight] told him that this was a human being and not a chosen one from another foreign land.
He walked out of the door and immediately wanted to run away when he saw the figure.
Lu Tan did not hesitate, and directly manifested a silver revolver [Last Word] in his right hand, pointing it at himself with a bullet.
He suddenly accelerated to the speed of a car and crashed into the other person.
Snap——
Lu Tiao almost hit the wall, startling the other party.
"Fuck!"
The man sighed, unable to dodge for a moment.
Lu Jian discovered that the words he expressed emotion were not the language of the wasteland, but the words of the earth that he could understand.
The translation function of Quiet Place directly pours the meaning of words and languages into the head, and what the ears hear is the words spoken by the locals. Therefore, Lu Jian can recognize that the other person is from the same place as himself.
He looked at the other person. The person was obviously startled by Lu Tan, but he quickly got into position and was ready to escape.
Lu Tiao naturally didn't give the other person a chance to escape, so he directly reached out and caught him.
The man tried to struggle and shake off Lu Tiao's hand, but he suddenly found that Lu Tiao's hand was as flexible as rubber and wrapped directly around his arm. The hand continued to wrap around his arm like a long snake.
body, making it unable to move.
"Quick, help me..."
The man pulled out a few words from his throat, and he seemed to have companions asking for help.
Feng Yu, who was chasing after him, saw another figure appearing behind Lu Tian.
The figure seemed to have grown out of the shadow of the house, blending into the night.
Feng Yu was about to do something when he discovered that the human figure formed by the shadow was very petite, like a girl.
It came to Lu Jian's side, and its appearance was illuminated by the light of stars and bug lamps.
That was a girl with a stunning beauty, whose mere presence was enough to make people forget to breathe.
She looked at Lu Tiao, then at the person caught by Lu Tiao, and made a sound.
"What a coincidence, you are here too?"
"?"
Lu Tan looked at Leopard, who was wearing cool clothes like a dancer, and a question mark appeared on his head.
