Faced with a desperate situation, Qi Tianci had no choice but to reveal all his secrets to this mysterious and terrifying old man. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn this process, Qi Tianci wanted to consciously hide something, but was seen through by the shrewd McGregor.
"Child, I don't advise you to hide something, it's not good for you and me. McGregory clearly knew what Qi Tianci was thinking, he just smiled and stood up and put on a posture that he could leave at any time and said with a smile: "I didn't mean to hurt you, I just had to do this for the continent I live in." Once it has been confirmed that you are not a threat to our world, then I promise not to reveal our conversation to anyone. Of course, if you choose to cheat, then I'm sure you'll tell me all when we meet next time. “
"Uh, the next time we meet? When are you talking about the next meeting?"
"Who knows. McGregory laughs and says, "Maybe it's a few days, maybe it's a few years, maybe it's never." Who knows if I'll live for the rest of my time. ”
"How can this old man be so shrewd. After Qi Tianci scolded secretly, he could only hope that this old man would not tell outsiders the content of this conversation as he promised. He was silent for a while, and then said silently, "I'm pretty sure I'm actually from this continent as well, and this was when I saw the teleportation array you arranged. Before that, I had traveled all over the continent, trying to make sure that the place I was living in was not where I had been. ”
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, tens of thousands of years ago, even hundreds of thousands of years ago, who knows how many years ago, I lived on this continent, but it wasn't as small as it is now. ”
"So small?" McGregory thought was incredible, and he exclaimed, "Son, let's not talk about whether what you said is true or not, but I don't agree with what you said." You must know that the continent we live in now has more than a dozen major races, with eight empires and three kingdoms like Magellan, and those small principalities even have as many as a dozen, and the combined population of all of them is even hundreds of millions!"
"Yes. Qi Tianci smiled indifferently. "At the time when I lived, the population of my country alone was more than ten times that of this continent, and I don't know if it was as big as the current continent, but I felt that it was definitely smaller than the country I was in before. Because the ancient city wall that the remarkable Simos spoke of before was actually left more than 2,000 years ago in my era. “
McGray silently stared at Qi Tianci's eyes, and after being silent for a while, he said silently: "Child, I think what you said is true." I don't see any nervousness in your eyes. On the contrary, I even see the intense sorrow that lies behind you. Now, can you tell me your story?"
Qi Tianci thought silently for a while, and tried to ask, "If I choose not to, will you take me out of this ghost place immediately?"
"No, you can't. McGregory shook his head decisively. "Because I'm still not sure if you're a threat to our world right now. God, you must know that those apostles are enough for this world, and if you are added, I don't know if our world will be destroyed because of this. ”
"Well, I'll tell you. Qi Tianci lowered his head helplessly, and tried to say in a way that McGregory could understand: "In my time, a crisis broke out on another continent across the sea from our continent, and our neighbors created a curse that could turn people into another monster that only knew how to eat people, and spread to the continent across the sea through a tool that could fly in the sky. And in just a few years, due to the lack of props to unlock this curse, almost the entire continent has become a dead place with only that kind of man-eating monster. Even if we cut off all ties with our neighbors because of previous disputes, it wouldn't stop that curse from spreading to our country through other neighboring countries or that continent, and that's when I chose to join the army and become an ordinary soldier, just like Viren. ”
Seeing that McGregory listened intently and did not mean to interrupt, Qi Tianci smiled gloomily and continued: "But in that era when there were man-eating monsters everywhere, human beings were extremely small. Even if we organized several effective rebellions at the beginning of the disaster and destroyed many, many monsters, it still could not prevent our world from gradually falling. I and the other survivors who survived continued to build settlements that could accommodate many humans, and watched the settlements that we had worked so hard to build and the inhabitants inside become food for the monsters or transformed into those monsters. Eventually those monsters are getting more and more numerous, and our population is getting smaller and smaller. At least two out of every ten bitten compatriots will become exactly the same thing as the monsters, and almost all of the rest will become their food. Later, as we continued to study them, we found out to our despair that the reason why we were gradually driven to a dead end by them was because they could evolve through constant eating, and we could only stand still. ”
"When our population has drastically dwindled from billions (believe me, everything I said is true, including the population) to only a few million scattered across the continents, a plan was proposed from academics. The specific plan is to select a few physically qualified humans from among these millions of survivors, and teleport them to another world to learn skills or ask for help through a device that scholars have developed that can enable humans to travel through time and space. And I'm one of them. And it was only after I saw the teleportation array you set up that I realized that it was too late. “
"Why?"
"Because I'm sure this is the world I once lived in, and now I can't find any remnants of our time other than the ancient walls that still exist. Obviously, our world may have disappeared with time, but the man-eating monsters must have disappeared with us, which is a comfort to me. ”
"Kid, I don't know if my next words will calm you down. McGray digested all Qi Tianci's words, and then said with a smile: "I am a scholar who studies history and time and space. I am sure that in the history of this continent I have not found any history as you have told. In other words, this may be the place where you lived tens of thousands of years ago or hundreds of thousands of years ago, but it can also be said that it is not. ”
Qi Tianci stood up suddenly, grabbed McGregor's shoulders and shook them constantly, "What do you mean?"
Mike gave Lei a smile and let go of Qi Tianci's excited hands and said, "I believe you understand what I mean, now it's time for us to go out." You have to grow up quickly so that you can save your world. ”
