Nan Yingjian, who broke into the underground excavation site, finally saw the "secret" true face of Lushan.
But what does "a door" mean?
At the same time, Zhang Yu and his party who had the same idea were trapped in the mysterious x area.
After crossing the high mountains, Zhang Yu saw the vast sea of clouds and the incredible "whales"!
The "waves" brought by the "whale" tore a huge hole in the sea of clouds.
From the mouth, Zhang Yu saw an ancient battlefield.
——
It is now the seventy-fifth day since entering area x.
At first Zhang Yu thought the instrument was broken, but later he discovered that... the time here is inherently fast and slow... calculating time based on the usual sunrise and sunset is more accurate than using an instrument.
But after descending the mountain, the sea of clouds covered the sky, the visibility dropped to less than 200 meters, and everything around was shrouded in a hazy color.
"Go five kilometers further and you'll reach the central area!" Zhang Yi said.
Zhang Yu and others followed behind. They originally had no intention of going too deep here. After all, this place didn't feel like a worry-free place. However, after entering, they found that all the equipment was out of order.
If you don't follow Zhang Yi, you will definitely get lost.
"You said a few days ago that there were still five kilometers, why is it now five kilometers?" o19 was very unhappy. Although he could not feel hunger or physical fatigue, he still felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Zhang Yi turned around and said: "That's because everything here is changing all the time. The route I determined a few days ago has been changed. Now if I want to reach my destination safely, I can only take a detour, unless... you want to
Activities activities.”
o19 stopped and looked at the abandoned tanks beside him and said: "With these old antiques, what is there that we should take a detour from?"
Zhang Yi also stopped and said with a smile: "Of course these old antiques are not a problem. The problem is, aren't you afraid of encountering something that will turn these old antiques into scrap metal?"
o19 stopped talking. Regarding that "thing", Zhang Yi had already said it when he first came down the mountain.
…
The process of descending to the bottom of the mountain was much faster than expected.
But as soon as he reached the foot of the mountain and saw the world under the sea of clouds clearly, Zhang Yu stopped and asked: "What... exactly is this place?"
"Here? This should be the end of the world." Zhang Yi explained this.
"Where does this world end?"
"Yes, the fundamental reason why there are no humans or animals anywhere in the world... is that a decisive battle that destroyed the world once took place here." Zhang Yi said as he came to an armored vehicle and pulled it away suddenly.
There were no dead bones inside the car door, only an unsettling emptiness.
Before Zhang Yu could speak, o19 suddenly said: "That's not right! There were animals in the forest when we came! And we were attacked by alien species!"
Zhang Yi jumped off the armored vehicle, clapped his hands and said: "That's because you haven't officially entered this world at that time, and now you can't find the way back if you want to go back."
o19 was startled when he heard this: "What do you mean?"
Zhang Yi did not explain: "Okay, if you want to go home quickly, just follow me and don't think too much about anything else."
After saying that, he started walking forward.
Zhang Yu didn't move a single step, mainly because Zhang Yu didn't move.
He had just released many worker bees to detect the surrounding situation, but none of the worker bees successfully returned data. Apparently they had been captured by some kind of interference signal.
Without these key things, Zhang Yu had to be cautious in his actions.
So he stopped Zhang Yi and said: "Hey, please speak clearly before speaking out."
Zhang Yi had walked out for almost fifty meters and stopped again when he heard the sound.
He did not look back, but put his hands on his hips and looked around and said: "Is there anything unclear? Look around you! This world tried to fight, but in the end, some kind of force brought an end to this world!
Now...there are only solitary plants left in the world, no animals...no humans...everything has become a scenery on the stage! This is reality...the reality you see! How about it? What I am talking about now
Is that clear enough?”
Zhang Yu heard clearly, but he still had questions.
"These...are you guessing? Or did you find the records?"
Zhang Yi: "Guess? Haha... no need to guess... because as long as you follow me forward, the wreckage here will tell you everything!"
After that, Zhang Yi went on the road again.
Zhang Yu was very dissatisfied with this answer. After all, this was not about his life.
o19: "Captain, what do you say?"
Zhang Yu thought for a while and said: "Notify O3 to bring Chang Yuan over and we will follow him in."
o19 was still a little hesitant, but finally saluted: "Yes."
…
Not only did he hear Zhang Yu's words, he also expected that Zhang Yu would not turn back at this time. Zhang Yi stopped in front until O3 and the others brought Chang Yuan, who was still unconscious, to join the team.
Then when Zhang Yu took steps forward, Zhang Yi continued to move forward, but his speed was much slower.
When Zhang Yu and others caught up, Zhang Yi pointed at the wreckage around him and said: "Look at these things, they are all antiques only found in "Earth Chronicles", tanks... missile vehicles... rocket launchers... armored vehicles... and...
There are all kinds of planes…”
Zhang Yu followed Zhang Yi's instructions and looked around.
Indeed, Zhang Yu felt like he had entered a huge open-air museum at this time.
But this is backwardness in the eyes of a younger generation like him. In fact... these things were once the most powerful weapons and equipment created by mankind...
But why did they turn into debris... and accumulate here?
And...the most crucial point!
"Is this... the earth?" Zhang Yu asked.
Zhang Yi smiled, a very disdainful laugh.
"No, this is not the earth... If this were the earth, where would we be?"
"Then this is?"
"Experimental Field."
"Experimental site?"
"Yes, during these years I, like you, once suspected that this was the Earth, the Earth after the completion of the prelude to the Fire Origin Project... But later, after roughly identifying the age of these wreckage, I determined that these things belong to the year 2000 AD of Earth time.
-2100 years, that is to say, the level of civilization development here is still five to six hundred years away from the year when the Fire Origin Project was officially launched." Zhang Yi said confidently.
Zhang Yu is not very familiar with "Chronicles of the Earth"... but he feels that this book should probably be called "Chronicles of Humanity". After all, it only records the past of human beings on the earth.
Zhang Yu is not familiar with him, but there are capable people in the team.
o19 usually likes to read miscellaneous books, and he could identify the approximate age of these things just after he came down.
But after he listened to Zhang Yi's words, he came up with a completely different conjecture: "Are you sure there are no other human beings in this world except you and us?"
Zhang Yi looked at o19, and then replied calmly: "I'm sure."
o19 smiled: "It's unlikely... I heard from Boss on the way that you have only been here for ten years, and you have been in one place for a while. How can you be so sure that there are no other humans in this world?"
Woolen cloth?"
Zhang Yi: "Then Captain Zhang must not have told you that besides me, there is another person called a 'guest' in this world, right?"
o19 was stunned and looked at Zhang Yu: "Guest?"
Zhang Yu did not mention the guests to anyone else... because even he himself was not sure that such a thing really existed.
Although he had obviously seen it before... Chang Yuan's coma was probably related to the guest... but he still didn't believe Zhang Yi's words.
He had only seen two such random existences.
One is Lin Sen who has left, and the other is An Youren who has disappeared forever.
Apart from them, Zhang Yu doesn't think there are other people of this level in the world.
"The guest is just your dictation. We have never seen it, so... this cannot be used as evidence." Zhang Yu said lightly.
Zhang Yi smiled slightly, his smile was very intriguing, and he nodded: "Okay, but this is agnosticism, isn't it? I can't prove that there are no human beings in this world, and you can't prove that there are other people, right? If we continue
Continuing to argue like this will lead to no results."
Zhang Yu: "I don't intend to argue with you, and o19 should have no such intention. He just mentioned a possibility, so the two conjectures can be completely independent. There is no need to determine the only truth, right?"
Zhang Yi thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay, my friend, since your captain has spoken, can you share your thoughts with us?"
o19 was startled when he heard this. He had no intention of thinking carefully. He just followed Zhang Yi's words to find out the logical illogicalities. Now...
Everyone looked at him, and he had no choice but to think about it carefully.
After a while, o19 said: "Well... the main difference between my idea and Zhang Yi's conjecture is actually whether this is the earth."
Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Do you think this is the earth?"
o19: "I didn't say this is the Earth, but I don't rule out the possibility!"
Zhang Yu only made a rough guess before, so now she is very concerned about o19's thoughts.
"Tell me carefully."
"Uh... how do I put it... I think everyone knows that the origin of fire project is something that will happen after 2700 years. According to this certain time point, our ancestors on earth should have encountered some kind of major event 2700 years ago.
Disaster, but no matter how serious the disaster was, there were still humans on the earth at that time! Right?" o19 paused and looked at everyone.
Everyone nodded.
"But if this is the earth, according to Zhang Yi and the wreckage we have seen now... human beings may have been completely wiped out by some force as early as 2100 years ago! And this has nothing to do with it.
It is contrary to the launch of the Fire Origin Project in 2700. Therefore, Zhang Yi came to the conclusion that this is not the earth, but an experimental site... a huge experimental site that has a similar structure to human civilization!"
After o19 finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Yi and said: "There shouldn't be much difference between what I said and what you think, right?"
Zhang Yi said nothing, silently gave a thumbs up, and then nodded.
