I can't stop, and I don't want to stop.

That's what vodka thinks.

Although along the way, it also fell into confusion and regret for a while:

Am I doing something wrong?

Shouldn't I take them out of the forest?

Is it too late for me to slip back into the forest now?

But in the end, it gritted its teeth and persevered.

The road ahead is not destined to be easy.

But the way forward is destined to be the way forward!

It wants to explore, to explore this world full of unknowns, to know how vast the world is, what a magnificent scenery beyond the dense primeval forest where the sky cannot be seen!

It is thirsty for knowledge.

Vodka couldn't tell if it was really what it was saying, when he blurted out the words from the bottom of his heart......

Or is it some mysterious and unknown secret existence to it, spoken through its mouth?

But, that's what it wants to say.

Looking at the apes that were gradually quieting down in front of him, it took a deep breath and said:

"Let's go...... Keep going!"

"Forward!" the apes shouted, causing the other apes to respond.

Gradually, the shouts of "forward" changed from scattered to neat, from soft words to thunder.

In the grassy savannah, many species look in unison in the direction of the apes.

Although they couldn't understand the apes' speech, they could only hear the neat roars, but they still heard the passionate emotions in them.

For some reason, they all started to get slightly restless.

Like, there's something bad for them, that's about to happen.

……

Wang'an watched the follow-up performance of the prairie apes, and was deeply impressed by the scene of more than a dozen apes patting their chests in unison and roaring in the sky.

"It's too strong, it's worthy of you!" The tone of the civilization synthesizer intelligence was full of diligence and excitement, as if the next second it would turn into the ultimate licking dog, and lick it into Wang'an's heart with one tongue.

Wang'an was about to wave his hand and say, "Basic operation, don't say 'slip'", when he heard the next sentence:

"You can type such a long sentence in such a short period of time, and even turn it into dictation in the middle of the breath without resting, your lung capacity is so large!"

Wang'an's face darkened, is this the point?

He switched to dictation halfway because dictation is more emotional, and because in order to improve communication efficiency (and end meetings early) at work, he has developed a super-fast but clear Mandarin, and he can speak much faster than he type-

Civilization synthesizers don't even support brain control, who dares to believe it?

"What do you think of those words?" he asked.

While the violent reaction of the ape leader Vodka after he uttered those words, as well as the three consecutive responses from the civilization synthesizer: great success, +10 unity, and gaining the "United" status, the success of the words he wrote is fully indicative of the success of those words he wrote, but this is purely positive feedback.

He wants to get more different feedback, combine all aspects, measure the benchmark, and determine the future speech and how to make it better.

"I think it's OK, it's very deep, and there's a lot of detail in it. 」

"Is it good or very good?"

"It's good, but it's not a little bit close to 'very good'. 」

Wang'an nodded contemplatively, he probably understood.

He continued to stare at the steppe ape.

Moved by the passionate speech of vodka, the apes regained their vitality and tried to run for their lives on the savannah.

If nothing else, they may be able to successfully walk out of the prairie and go to the next strange place before the extinction.

But, another thing happened.

Torrential rain poured, lightning pierced the sky from time to time, illuminating the world, and the deafening thunder was long overdue, but it made all living things tremble and be terrified.

The rain came too suddenly, at least for the apes trying to travel far, so that they were each wet from the rain and waded through the mud.

"There's a big tree ahead!"

In order to avoid the rain, the apes hurried to the bottom of the trees, and the fast ones shouted to the slow runners: "Come here!"

Unfortunately, they don't know one thing yet:

When thunder strikes, under the trees, the most dangerous.

The slow-running ape has seen with his own eyes what may be the most terrible thing in life.

The lightning struck, and the fire flashed, igniting the drowsy sky and the entire vision of the apes.

The tree immediately split in half, collapsed and disintegrated, and the apes waving their hands under the tree stiffened and fell to the ground in unison.

"How-"

Before the other apes could be frightened, they saw the flames baring their fangs and smirked at them passionately.

"Stand back, stand back, don't get over!" roared Voldka.

In fact, it is needless to say that the fear of loud noises, lights, and flames, etc., which is engraved in the genes, makes all apes instinctively scream and flee, and move away as fast as they can from the disintegrating and burning trees that are emitting demonic chuckles.

Bang!!!

Thunder is always slower than lightning, just as a wounded ape is slower than an intact and strong ape.

It's like a mockery, and it's like a powerful being, snoring in its sleep.

……

Half a day has passed.

The rain has stopped, but the fire has not been extinguished.

Led by the brave vodka, the apes with the "Unite as One" effect gradually recovered from their fears, summoned up their courage, and returned to the tree again.

Looking at the scorched ground and the wreckage everywhere, they recalled the shocking firelight, and great fear appeared on their faces again.

Vodka stared deeply at the already tiny, but still terrifying flames, and the charred corpses of his former companions, with a heavy expression.

The second choice finally appeared in front of Wang'an's eyes.

A: Lead the apes away.

B: Step forward and explore the charred corpses and flames.

C: It's so fragrant, what does it smell like? (Try to ignore the identity of the charred corpse, the first time ape eats cooked food)

“…… The third option every time, isn't it really a make-up number?"

Wang'an resisted the desire to choose C, chose B: Explore, and quickly said a lot of words.

And before the flames and charred corpses, the silent vodka finally had a new move.

Ignoring the frightened cries and dissuasions of the other apes, it resolutely walked over to the still burning flames, stepped over to the charred corpse.

Half a day ago, they were still companions, and meeting again is not only a matter of heaven and man.

Vodka stretched out his hand and gently touched the charred corpse, and the feeling of the hand made its heart tremble.

It subconsciously took a deep breath to calm its mind, and a scorched and fragrant smell of flesh penetrated deep into its nostrils.

It was the tangy smell of its companions.

……

Wang'an was infinitely skeptical that if he had chosen "C", the ape would have sat down to eat, soaking in the emotion and pleasure of eating cooked food for the first time, and forgetting for a moment that it was the corpse of his companion.

But he chose "B".

Vodka will explore flames.

Under his gaze and that of other apes, Vodka, the leader of the apes, not only looked at the flames, but even ......

Reach for the flames.

Amid the screams, Vodka withdrew his hand like lightning, felt the scorching and pain coming from the tips of his fingers, and whispered to himself: "Is this how you feel when you are burned to death......

Its gaze gradually became firm, and the scene of that time appeared in its mind.

What a powerful force.

If I can grasp it......
