This was the fifth time Lin Sanjiu had seen the same wall. In the dim night, every wall, fence and path looked the same, so when she began to notice that she was passing by the same wall again and again,
She might have wandered past it many times.
"I thought you knew the way out." Lin Sanjiu asked in a low voice, holding back the gasp that hit her chest.
"……I know!"
Just like the previous times, Changzu immediately responded quickly and defensively: "I-I just haven't walked the road here myself."
"Then how do you know where to go?" Lin Sanjiu stopped and knocked lightly on the wall. Half a twisted nail protruded from the wall. It was unclear what its purpose was. It seemed like it was just someone.
Pinned here on a whim. "Look, we're back again."
"I'm not blind, I can see." Changzhi was restless and anxious, like a jar of unstable chemicals, "Can't you feel it? There is a very weird force field in this garden..."
Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat - she finally said this. She had been enduring the influence and consumption of the force field on her, and even if she turned on the consciousness protection, it still had little effect; but in order not to reveal her weakness in front of Chang Zhang, she kept holding on
This was not mentioned.
Now, she suspected that Chang Zhang was like her, that he was affected by the force field but didn't dare to show it.
"There are also a few fallen species in the conservation park to do chores. It cost me a lot of money to find out the route from them." Although Changzu's voice sounded relatively steady, his mask was bulging one after another, as if he was constantly breathing.
"...Go along, follow the force field, they say, don't worry about the road in front of you, just follow the feeling of your body and walk around in circles. It doesn't matter even if you keep returning to the same place. As long as you feel that the influence of the force field is getting smaller and smaller,
You can follow it to the very edge of the garden."
After a pause, it hissed uncontrollably: "Mei He is right there."
However, when the body is in a state of high burden all the time, it is not so sensitive to small fluctuations in consumption and pressure. When Lin Sanjiu raised this question, Changzu snorted: "The mutated bodies of our fallen species are more useful than yours."
Much more. No matter how much your strength grows, it is still just like ordinary people, based on a piece of soft meat."
"But you degenerates can't do anything with soft meat." She couldn't help but sarcastically said.
Changzhi said nothing and ignored her. He just kept walking forward, stopping from time to time, as if he was using his body to detect the direction of the force field. They were undoubtedly lucky. They walked for more than ten minutes and did not meet another person.
Something like the catfish monster with a human face just now; according to a few words from Changzuo, most of the small creatures wandering in the garden at this time are at the bottom of the ecological circle where the risk is not high.
However, although there are not many monsters encountered, traces of humans are becoming more and more frequent.
Wearing masks, the Evolutionaries, who were obviously employees of the conservation park, were patrolling back and forth in the open space and alleys in small groups - some people were holding flashlights, which was easier to avoid; some people were used to being silent in the dark.
They wandered closer and closer without sound. Once they were almost knocked into each other. Fortunately, the long feet made a sharp sound in time, which was not like a human cry. The sound of their footsteps as they turned away did not arouse the attention of those people.
Suspect.
Perhaps for safety reasons, these evolvers in the night never act alone.
"The more these people there are, the closer we are to our goal." A long glance passed over her backpack, "We are almost at our destination, it's time for you to give me your things, right?"
That's what it said, but Lin Sanjiu could tell that it didn't believe that it would keep its promise. After all, in the minds of fallen species, there is no concept of "promise" - tear it up, destroy it, turn against it, rob it.
That's the norm.
"I'll give it to you when it arrives,"
I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but Lin Sanjiu did feel better, and her strength seemed to have returned a little: "What is the destination like?"
Changzhi glanced at her, but said nothing. He just turned around and motioned for her to follow him. He walked silently for a while, his feet gradually getting faster and faster, and even the step of sensing was omitted, as if he knew what to do next.
As if going somewhere. The alley gradually widened and moved downwards, turning into an empty downhill road. One person walked as close to the shadows in the corners as possible for a while, and after a few turns, the road was cut off -
-When they came to a thick iron gate, Lin Sanjiu knew very well that the maze ended here, even if she didn't consciously feel her physical condition.
She glanced at Chang Zhi.
This degenerate species stood straight in front of the door, motionless, and did not speak for several seconds.
The heavy door, which is dozens of centimeters thick and can almost withstand a tank, is long and blocked in front of you, with a small dog-shaped sign hanging on the left and right. There is no keyhole, no camera, and even where the door comes from.
No open gaps can be seen, it seems to be completely integrated, only unshakably blocking external dangers.
These evolvers are among countless monsters created by themselves, so they really have to be careful, but——
"Where is this?" Lin Sanjiu frowned and asked in a low voice, "This is not the exit."
Changzhi stared at the door, still making no sound. Only when you got closer could you see that it was trembling slightly, and even its clothes were rustling very lightly. Its mask was beating even more fiercely.
After a few seconds, it slowly turned its head: "This is the place where I was born."
"What?"
"...Here is where I was born as a fallen species." Changzu repeated in a low voice.
Lin Sanjiu took a while to digest this sentence.
"I still remember this gate and the road near this gate." It raised a hand and gently crossed the iron gate.
"Listen, I don't care what you do next." Lin Sanjiu pulled out the umbrella-shaped weapon and placed it on the ground, "I want to get out of here, you know? You want this weapon
, you have to take me to find the exit."
It was as if her words lit up the night. As soon as she finished speaking, there was a faint sound of electricity flashing, and several white beams of light suddenly lit up everywhere - they seemed to be actors who were suddenly pushed onto the stage.
The child was firmly covered by the dazzling spotlight.
At the blurred boundary between light and darkness, some shadows with difficult-to-discern outlines appeared.
"It's so rare, we have guests again." A strange voice suddenly sounded from behind the iron door. I don't know how long the person had been behind the door: "How can you trust a fallen species?"
Lin Sanjiu twisted his head, his eyes piercing towards Changzu like ice knives - Changzu stood there blankly, but did not move as before.
The voice continued: "...even if you are a fallen species. After all, there is no similar feeling between you."
