Chapter 40: The Last Days
Hao and the others followed the woman all the way, walking in this sewer for nearly an hour, the woman walked left and right, and from time to time she also walked in a circle, which seemed to be doing useless work, but Hao saw that she was walking in the position of the eye of a formation, and this formation was somewhat similar to his Fenghou Eight Formations, it was a constantly changing and moving formation, so it was very troublesome to move around, but relatively, the defense would be much higher than that of ordinary formations.
After more than an hour, everyone's eyes suddenly opened up, and a spacious square appeared in front of everyone, this square covers an area of about four or five square kilometers, and there are many crooked wooden buildings in the square, which looks like refugee houses in refugee slums, and there are hundreds of people in this refugee square...... It's human, right?
These people are all strangely shaped, and their appearance is even more exaggerated than the weird races Hao has seen, some people have half of their bodies empty, and some people have one-third of their bodies composed of steel bars, which are simple steel bars like the huge monster before, rather than a precise mechanical body, and some people's heads are under their arms, their arms are under their buttocks, and the whole person is strangely shaped, and some people's body tissues are half made of cloth, which looks like half-puppet life, and ......
In short, the life here seems strange, seemingly human, but not human.
At this time, the woman took off her heavy cloak, wearing only a simple suspender coat and hot pants, and the body below also made Hao and the others shrink their eyes, she was a skeleton from her chin to her stomach, but she was not an undead creature, she was still a living person, which Ay and other magicians felt clearly.
However, if a living person becomes like this, he has died I don't know how many times, he has no heart, no lungs, and most of his internal organs, and he is still alive, so what the hell is it.
The woman seemed to understand Hao's eyes, she walked casually to one of these refugee rooms, opened the door and walked in, and at the same time hung her cloak somewhere in the door, only then did she say to Hao and them: "I am a person in the initial stage of mutant infection, I am barely alive now, but after that, I am not sure." β
Hao looked at this square, and the humans here, there was pity in his eyes, and just as he was about to speak, the woman closed the door, and at the same time walked to a certain area, and said as she walked: "I have a lot of questions until you come here, and there are always many questions after the strangers come here, it doesn't matter, as long as you pay the payment, I will give you the answer, of course, I have to do it." β
Hao nodded slightly, he glanced at the rest of the people, and then followed behind the woman, walking towards the center of the square, and along the way, those mutated people were all staring at them, with hatred and longing in their eyes, and more envy and jealousy, complicated and indescribable.
After walking for a long time, everyone followed the girl to the center of the square, there is actually a silver-white high-tech building in the center of the square, even the outer wall is full of high-tech, silver-white, streamlined, and at the same time there are a large number of energy lines flowing on the surface, just at a glance, Hao feels that this building is not ordinary, those energy flows are by no means chaotic, but full of some kind of peculiar rhythm, as if it is a rune, as if it is a pattern, or a text.
There was no door to this building, there was no entrance, the woman stood outside the wall of the building, stretched out her hand and pressed against the wall, and then she closed her eyes, as if she was communicating with someone, and after a while, a door opened on the wall, and the woman looked back at Hao and said, "Come with me, my reward needs to be paid inside." β
After speaking, the woman took the lead and walked in, and everyone looked at Hao, Hao was silent for a while, he looked at Aiyi, and then at the rest of the people, and finally he looked at Wutian, Wutian looked at the building in a daze, and when Hao looked at him, he immediately understood what Hao meant, and was about to tell Hao that when he didn't hear the narration, the narration suddenly sounded.
(Wutian is about to witness a miracle, a miracle creation of a man who has not given up hope and has made his last effort to redeem the end of the world when the end of the day is approaching, of course, this is just a small building.) οΌ
Wutian carefully reflected on this narration, and at the same time he also said it, and Hao only thought for a second or two, he nodded at everyone, and then took the lead in it.
As everyone walked into it, they walked in a light and dark road, and suddenly it dawned in front of them, they appeared in a ward, in the center of the ward there was a fully sealed glass instrument, the glass instrument was filled with an unknown transparent liquid, in which was suspended a picture of hands and feet, yes, it was such a thing, with human hands and feet, but the head and body were a painting, and in the painting was a boy of twelve or thirteen years old.
The woman was already standing next to the container, she touched the container with her hand, and said to Hao at the same time: "This is my brother, he is already in the late stage of mutant infection, if there is no accident, after the dusk moment comes this time, he will completely turn into a mutant, and then be driven out of this safe point, go to the ground to become one of those monsters, become a spokesman for terror, and hunt all living beings......"
Speaking of this, the woman turned to look at Hao and them, and she said: "The reward I ask for is very simple, blood and flesh, not a lot, you can load within the safe range, everyone give me some, pure life blood and flesh, can slow down the speed of my brother's mutation, can he recover a little, is it okay? Please......"
After speaking, this girl who looked terrifying, but spoke and acted heroically, was suddenly about to kneel down, but Hao took the first step to support her, helped her up and said: "You can stand up and bring us here, maybe it is a great grace to save lives, how should we pay for flesh and blood?"
The girl was overjoyed, and before she could say anything, metal tentacles came out from the surrounding walls, and she immediately said: "Don't resist, this is the instrument for extracting blood and flesh, and it also includes the detection of your body, don't worry......"
In the girl's voice, the metal tentacles were attached to everyone's arms, and then in an instant, the metal tentacles on the arms of the rest of the people all retracted, only Hao, Zhang Haohuan, and Wutian still had tentacles on their arms, and all three of them emitted light.
The tentacles on Zhang Haohuan's arm emitted a blue-yellow light, the tentacles on Wutian's arm emitted almost pure blue light, and the tentacles on Hao's arm emitted a blue and purple light, and then the tentacles on Zhang Haohuan's arm extracted a piece of flesh about the size of a fist, and the tentacles on Wutian's arm extracted about a thumb-sized piece of flesh, as for Hao...... The tentacles on his arm had drawn only one drop of blood, just a drop of blood.
The flesh and blood were passed to the container through the tentacles, and the painting of the hands and feet in the container immediately began to transform, a very strange change, from a painting to a three-dimensional human shape, and the girl saw this scene, she was already in tears......
"I can only tell you what I know, as for whether it is true or not, all these changes began about 300,000 years ago, that day, there was darkness, the darkness enveloped all the world, all the space, all the time, everything will sink and destroy in the darkness, all of a sudden, there is a ball of light in the sky, this ball of light absorbs all the darkness, people at that time thought they were saved, but this ball of light became more and more terrifying as the more darkness it absorbed, and in the end, it became a huge ball of flesh, and people called that ball of flesh the main godγ β
"I don't know what happened after the ......, in short, the heavens and the earth collapsed, everything perished, everything began to collapse into one, this one, is this tower, all the worlds are condensed into a tower, and some fragments of these worlds converge into the earth under the tower, I have read a book before, the book has been torn apart, only a little content remains, the book called this era the era of the tower, at the beginning, people can still live under the tower safely, there are buildings, there are countries, there are governments, but with the advent of the three major disasters of mutants, wailers, and dusk, the first one has arrived, it is the purple dawn, everything is destroyed, civilization collapses, there is nothing left but the tower......"
"The remnants of the people tried to rebuild civilization, the remnants of them divided the world under the tower into the main street and the back street, at the same time, they expected to open the door of the tower, everyone teleported, the world in the tower must be as beautiful as heaven, because the essence of the world is in the tower, and I don't know when there was a rumor, as long as you climb to the top of the tower, then you can get all the answers, realize all the wishes, get all the power, achieve the supremacy of everything, in short, the back street has become a shelter for all the horror monsters since then, including all the people infected with the three major plagues, have also been driven hereγ β
"After that, the second moment arrived, the blue noon, all the powers were dead, there was no remnant, the remaining transcendents had gone crazy, they began to self-destruct, including the backstreets, the remaining transcendents began to hunt all the remaining lives, they felt that as long as they were all dead, they would not have to go through those terrible moments again......"
"At this time, there was a person who stood up, he entangled a team, entangled all the forces on the Xiuzhen side and the technology side, opened the door of the tower for the first time, restrained the two monsters that were left behind for the first time, alleviated the harm of the three major disasters for the first time, and ...... for the first time"
"This building was built by that person in the backstreet, as long as it is deeply infected, people can be treated in it, although there is no cure, but there is time for respite, there is hope......
"This man tells us that there is then the hour of dusk, and the final hour of midnight, and the final moment of midnight is the moment of misery, so you were wrong at first, not the morning of the white, but the midnight of the white. β
"This man's name is Renhuang, and he is our savior!"
The girl said a lot intermittently, and Hao and the others kept listening, and when they heard this, Hao suddenly asked, "What about after midnight?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then said with an almost morbid look of despair: "How is it possible, after the final midnight hour, it will be eternal destruction, because after that, ......"
"It's the eternal night. β
At the same time, somewhere in the tower, a man who was walking towards the tower suddenly stopped in a daze, he showed a stupid expression and looked in a certain direction under his feet, and a voice in his ear said: "What's wrong?
"No...... I was wrong, hope was not at the top of the tower, but suddenly appeared in the backstreet!!"
There was excitement, hope, and hesitation in the man's eyes, and he muttered, "The first man ......"
