While listening to the conversations of several Fanjia City residents around him, Lin Sanjiu thought anxiously.
Ever since she met four or five other ordinary people in the city road, Lin Sanjiu had not heard from him again, and there was no response when she asked. Considering that he had not improved after drinking coffee, at this time
There was no sound, maybe he was seriously injured and lost consciousness, right?
Badou De couldn't contact her, so she had no choice but to follow this small group of Fanjia City residents, planning to check out the situation first. However, along the way, except for the sparsely populated and empty city roads, she still found nothing new.
"On my way here, I found that even the corpses piled at the city entrance were gone." An old man with a strong body held up a flashlight and said while scanning the city road ahead: "There is no way he is an evolver.
Did they take it away?"
Since the two groups of people met, everyone checked with each other and found that the roads they walked on were sparsely populated. Apparently something happened in the city, and there were more and more unexplained weirdnesses. Everyone was feeling anxious at this moment and walked away.
They hugged each other tightly on the road, and no one dared to step out of the light range of flashlights and lanterns.
"I heard that the evolved ones left because of the appearance of the fallen species. But I didn't see the fallen species either," said a woman with natural curly hair. "Could it be that... the fallen species are here? Kill, kill."
Many people left again?"
"It's impossible," the dark-skinned man Lin Sanjiu met at the beginning reassured her. "We didn't hear anything. Besides, there are no traces of the fallen species killing anyone."
Everyone came up with a variety of possibilities, but after discussing it for a while, they didn't think it was possible, so they gave up and continued walking towards their destination - when everyone discussed it just now, they unanimously agreed to go to the highest point of Fanjia City; to climb to the highest point.
If you look down from Diancheng Road, you might be able to discern some clues.
Lin Sanjiu followed the others silently, and slowly climbed up the city road at their speed. Many places had been turned into a mess by mutants, and there were things all over the floor that had to be carried.
Settling down in the open space; besides her, there was a short and thin man also falling behind the crowd. Unlike Lin Sanjiu, who was for the rear, his eyes only wandered around the ground, and from time to time he would bend down and pick up something from the ground.
Just carry whatever you want in your arms.
There are always people like this... Considering the current situation, Lin Sanjiu frowned and said nothing. She turned her eyes away from him and glanced outside a small window as she passed by.
They were walking halfway up the mountain, and the city roads all over the mountain were all dim and silent in the night, their outlines blending together indistinctly, with only the occasional light and walking figures.
Leaking out from between the windows of the distant city road, it should belong to ordinary people who have not disappeared yet.
The man closest to them was just above four or five city roads. His face seemed to be only the size of the nail of his little finger. He paused for a moment in the window and then disappeared - but he seemed to have seen the mountainside.
Someone is walking up the city road.
After he disappeared, Lin Sanjiu listened intently for a while. Even though her combat power had been reduced by 94% and her five senses were affected, it sounded like the night shrouding Fanjia City was still as silent as dead water—
—Compared to last night when the mutants appeared, it was almost like a different world.
"It's so tiring," someone complained. It's really hard for ordinary people to bear the physical strength of climbing up endlessly; what's more, this group of people have been frightened for two consecutive days and haven't even been able to get a full night's sleep. "We are in front.
Take a break?"
This proposal received an immediate response.
Even though Lin Sanjiu was anxious, she could only watch them sit down in the open space one by one; now she did not dare to leave these ordinary people behind and go on her own, in case something unexpected happened to these people if she turned around.
what to do?
"I'm not tired yet," the thin man didn't sit down with the others, and didn't want to be looked at. He just said vaguely, "I'll go look around and give you a break."
Without waiting for anyone to respond, he turned around and turned to another city road. Under his jacket, which was as bulging as if he was pregnant, there was a subtle tinkling sound as the metal hit him with his footsteps.
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and said, "I'll go take a look with him" and left without anyone paying attention - she was too lazy to care about such a trivial matter of taking advantage at the moment, but after leaving everyone's sight, at least she
If you have the opportunity, use "Beacon Fire" to contact Batou De again.
Seeing the thin man in a jacket disappear behind a corner, she did not follow him. Instead, she turned behind the wall in the opposite direction and disappeared into a dark and shadowy city road. She happened to be standing on a T-shaped intersection at the moment, with a
Walking to the right in the direction the thin man left, there was a place where everyone rested, and they could still hear their conversation, which was convenient for her to monitor the situation.
She still had no message from Badou De; after thinking about it, Lin Sanjiu opened another function in "Beacon Fire" and listened to the most popular and most discussed news in the past two days - after all, in Fanjia City
What happened is not trivial. Maybe there are rumors or clues from the outside world?
"...an incredible experience exhibition of fallen species. I think its existence is an attempt to blur the distinction between humans and fallen species..." one commentator said passionately, "it closed yesterday, and I was the first to
A round of applause!"
The degenerate seed exhibition she had experienced with Bee Needle turned out to be closed yesterday?
"It doesn't seem strange. As a very idolized figure, he leaves a string of children behind him wherever he goes... Men may think this is romantic, but I think it's a bit vulgar!" the host said.
He laughed, as if it was gossip, Lin Sanjiu cut it off.
"More and more people agree with this view recently. I have always said that there is a hidden force in the Twelve Realms," a male voice said seriously, "They are full of hatred for the evolved people, so they will not hesitate to obstruct and destroy us.
Any progress that has been made...if you listen carefully, I will lay out a long chain of evidence, and after you listen, tell me whether they are all coincidences."
Lin Sanjiu listened to the two pieces of evidence and saw that they had nothing to do with Fanjia City, so he cut them out - they seemed indeed suspicious.
"We are still not sure whether the observed large flood will continue to move in the current direction," another worried and serious female voice said. "If it continues to move forward and touches the wandering clouds, then the affected areas will be affected."
Where? What is the scope of the impact? Who needs emergency evacuation? How mature is the 'big flood jump' service in the Twelve Worlds? These are all questions we are trying to answer."
Lin Sanjiu suddenly shut down the news with a snap.
In the dark city road, it seemed that even the dust wandering around could leave traces in the dead silence. The scattered voices of people just now disappeared completely as if they had merged into the night.
She always kept one ear open to pay attention to the situation at the other end; when everyone first became quiet, she originally thought that no one was talking for a while, but after listening to the last piece of news, she never heard any conversation from the right side.
.
...There seems to be only one possibility. Something happened to that group of people the moment she turned around.
Lin Sanjiu suppressed her pounding heart and quickly rushed towards where everyone was gathering.
She originally thought that what she saw would only be an empty city road; however, when she suddenly stopped, she found that not only were the people sitting in the city road still there, but there was even one more person.
An old woman wearing blue trousers, with sparse white hair combed into a bun on the back of her head, was standing among the people, looking at them in circles. On her hunched back, she carried a huge
Bag; at her feet, six ordinary people were looking at her blankly, no one spoke, no one moved - if they were not still breathing, they would be like dolls.
The old woman slowly turned her head and showed Lin Sanjiu a face that she had seen in the world of meat and vegetables.
