Like the towns it passes through, it's a completely abandoned port city, and one that's at least a thousand years old.

Along the way, Chu Tianjiang did not meet a single person, not even a refugee who escaped from the city.

Obviously, in this world, there are no other human beings except the "Freedom Guards" led by Iska.

Relatively speaking, a thousand years is not too long to erase the traces of human civilization.

It can be seen that the city was built more than a thousand years ago and was one of the centers of the Church's rule in the New World. The city is huge, with hundreds of tall buildings in the center and a few towns outside the city. Because the New World did not enter the age of technological civilization during the period of church rule, there were many villages on the outskirts of the city. However, after being abandoned for a thousand years, the cultivated land outside the city has been turned into forests and grasslands, and the city is full of various plants, which seems to be a city built in the forest. Many buildings have collapsed, but some sturdy ones are still standing, as if telling of the glory of the past.

Chu Tianjiang did not rush into the city, but chose a relatively hidden location outside the city to spend the night.

Of course, in this world, the distinction between day and night is not obvious. When single-celled life shines, it is the day, and when single-celled life does not shine, it becomes the night of the day. This change is also more about maintaining the natural ecological environment of the earth.

Thinking of this, Chu Tianjiang felt a little ironic.

The enemy brutally eradicated the entire human civilization, but mercifully preserved all living things except humans, even the lowest bacteria, and created a more ideal ecological environment for these creatures than when humans ruled the earth, so that all living things have enough living space.

If this guy used to be human, then he must have a strong misanthropy and even hate humans very much.

The night is not quiet, and there are many creatures who are used to coming out at night. Because there is no threat from humans, these weak creatures have become more powerful.

The place where Chu Tianjiang spent the night was on a tree trunk about twenty meters above the ground.

Looking at the animals on the ground that came out to forage at night, Chu Tianjiang felt that he had become a primitive man who came out of the East African plateau millions of years ago and had not yet fully adapted to the way of life outside the forest. At that time, because they had not yet mastered the method of using fire, did not make the simplest stone tools, and did not evolve a body form more adapted to moving on the ground, but because of the change in the structure of food, they evolved color vision that could find more food, and as a result, they lost their night vision, so after being forced out of the forest, they had to return to the trees at night to avoid the dangers that were everywhere on the ground.

Chu Tianjiang also noticed that there were many more animals moving in the city than outside the city.

Of course, this is understandable.

In a sense, the forest is the ocean.

Although there is enough food in the forest, especially plants, many plants have evolved the ability to protect themselves under the influence of the environment. For example, the leaves of many plants are difficult to digest after they are ripe, and some plants have even evolved toxins, that is, toxins are used to protect themselves from becoming food for animals. For herbivores, there isn't much food to eat in the forest. This is very similar to the situation of the ocean, that is, in the vast ocean, most of the sea, especially the sea area far from the land, is as empty as a desert, and there is not much food for the creatures to survive, so most of the creatures in the sea are clustered near the islands.

Obviously, a city is an island.

In a sense, cities abandoned by humans have become coral reefs in the forest ocean.

In the city, the three-dimensional spatial structure provides a broader living place for more animals, especially small animals, while the remaining resources of human beings provide more nutrients for plants. As a result, more complex ecosystems are formed in cities. In this small environment, both plants and animals can get more resources to sustain themselves.

Chu Tianjiang waited patiently, and was also thinking quietly.

Iska has indeed changed, but there are some places that have not changed, she still cares about Chu Tianjiang, she still cares about Chu Tianjiang, and she conveyed an extremely important message by letting Chu Tianjiang leave, and even explained this information by letting Chu Tianjiang understand the changes in the solar system.

It's just that Iska didn't tell Chu Tianjiang the most fundamental thing.

This is what has happened in the last thousand years, the one that has had a huge impact on Iskar, and even on Soya and Laika.

Chu Tianjiang almost concluded that this matter must be related to the enemy.

As Iska said, the fact that the enemy did not destroy the "Freedom Guards" and even directly ignored their existence must have something to do with Chu Tianjiang.

First of all, the enemy knows the existence of Chu Tianjiang, and even has a deep understanding of Chu Tianjiang's past, the relationship between Chu Tianjiang and Iska, and the relationship between Chu Tianjiang and the church, so that as long as Chu Tianjiang lives, he will definitely return to the earth.

The thing is, it's definitely not the most important thing.

The enemy's purpose is not to deal with Iska, but to deal with Chu Tianjiang.

In other words, Chu Tianjiang had a knot with this guy, and it was a very deep knot, otherwise this guy would not have been able to wait for a thousand years.

You know, time can change everything.

What kind of hatred can last for a thousand years?

Not necessarily hatred, of course.

Along the way, Chu Tianjiang was thinking about this problem, or looking for those who had a close relationship with him in his memory.

Chu Tianjiang's first thought was Uma, but the first thing he excluded was Uma.

It is undeniable that Uma must be Chu Tianjiang's enemy. With her love for Feister, after knowing that Feist had been killed by Chu Tianjiang, let alone a thousand years, even if it was ten thousand years, she would wait until the day when Chu Tianjiang came back, and then kill Chu Tianjiang with her own hands.

Of course, what Uma was waiting for might not be Chu Tianjiang, but Fest.

It's just that, no matter who is waiting, Uma will do the same thing. If it is Fest who returns, Uma will use the armed humans to help Fest capture the invaders' home planet and help Fest realize his ideals. If it was Chu Tianjiang who came back, this force would be able to help her kill Chu Tianjiang.

With Uma's mastery of techniques, it is not a problem to create a large number of mass bodies and control the entire human civilization.

It's just that there's one place in this that can't be said at all.

That is, it is impossible for Uma to wait for Fest in the solar system, especially after she has mastered the art of creating mass bodies.

It is important to know that Uma has also mastered the science and techniques of the invaders.

Even if her understanding of the invaders is not as comprehensive as that of Feister, and what Feister has obtained is only some incomplete science and technology, but after mastering the technology of mass-producing mass energy bodies on a large scale, and even after discovering the star core, Uma will definitely be able to find a way to create a space bridge. Don't forget, she knows how to create miniature wormholes out of mass, and it is through them that Feister travels to another micro-universe. In other words, Uma should have created a miniature wormhole after mastering a large number of resources and went to find Fest, rather than staying in the solar system and waiting for Fest's return, let alone waiting for more than a thousand years.

With Uma's affection for Fest, she would never wait more than a thousand years without looking for Fest.

The question is, who else but Uma?

Next, Chu Tianjiang thought of a person who was close to him, two people to be exact, namely Clara and Natasha.

Of course, Chu Tianjiang felt that this was ridiculous.

Not to mention that Clara and Natasha couldn't leave the double subspace they created, and even if they could, they wouldn't be able to come to the world where Chu Tianjiang was located, but returned to the time section where they created that subspace, that is, before the fall of the Shadow Empire. In other words, even if Clara and Natasha wanted to see Chu Tianjiang, they would go to another earth in time, not the current earth. What's more, Clara and Natasha have been waiting for thousands of years, and there is no reason for them to leave the double subspace a few years after reuniting with Chu Tianjiang. If they didn't even have this bit of perseverance, it would be impossible for them to reunite with Chu Tianjiang.

Obviously, it's certainly not Clara and Natasha.

Who could that be?

Are there any other powerful beings in the church?

The patriarchs were all eliminated by Uma, and Fester got rid of all the modulators of the church before entering the wormhole space, and no one was spared at all.

Another Uma made by Fest?

It is undeniable that Fest has multiple personalities, so he has enough energy to create another fictional character while under house arrest by the intruder, and he also has the ability to bring other fictional characters to life in the same way that he created Uma after mastering the secrets of the Mass Body.

The problem is that if there is such an existence, Fester will definitely take her into the wormhole space.

Either way, there's no reason for Fest to leave two Umas to watch over Earth, and there's no reason for these two beings who may not be able to live together peacefully. What's more, if there was such an existence, Feister would not have lost to Chu Tianjiang in the wormhole space, and he would not even need Chu Tianjiang.

Chu Tianjiang had a headache, because he couldn't think of any kind of person who could wait for a thousand years, just waiting for him to return to this world to seek revenge on him, or to achieve another goal. In Chu Tianjiang's memory, there was no such character at all.
