Chapter 28 (II) What Can't Be Stopped
The words of the earth turtle made Tang Shuxing very conflicted, these words made him not only rekindle his hope, but at the same time feel that it is very difficult to realize this hope, and even say that it is slim.
Reinhardt is very powerful, this is something that there is no doubt about it, he is so strong that it seems that in an instant, with just a touch of a finger, he can turn a million armies into ashes, and it is unrealistic to use large-scale force to attack Shandu, after all, there are still many innocent people there, even if they have supported Shandu for many years, it is to survive.
People are always ignorant, and this is a fact that most rulers and sober rebels in every age see in their eyes.
Indeed, people are ignorant, and if they are not ignorant, why would so many tragedies be born? People's knowledge is the experience summed up, experience is wisdom, and wisdom comes from the failures of people again and again in history.
Everyone is afraid of war, but they have to rely on war to end war, in the last century, everyone knows that a certain madman will bring endless wars, so everyone has always avoided the appearance of madmen, but the terrible thing is that many countries will not rise again if there are no madmen to stand on them.
The world is always moving forward in contradictions, you see the wheel of history carrying people to the front, but in front of you, the wheel seems to be moving backwards.
"It's time for me to go, I have to go to Venice, I've got to find someone there." Tang Shuxing saw that Ah Yue's ship had already docked, and Quinn and the others were already carrying the supplies they needed onto the ship, and the people on board were standing on the deck waiting for him.
"I know you're going to find Ji Mengsheng." The ground turtle whispered. "But, what you want to know, I'll tell you all sΓΉ, it's useless for you to go to him again, and Ji Mengsheng is just a waste now, but I'll be by your side to help you......"
"Huh?" Tang Shuxing was a little surprised, "You're by my side to help me?" What do you mean? β
"I can't sue you yet, but one day you'll know." The Earth Turtle then turned around and turned his back to Tang Shuxing, "Your new journey has begun again. Be careful. β
"Thank you." Tang Shuxing looked at the ground turtle road.
But when the ground turtle is on the side. Tang Shuxing saw that he had a strange expression on his face, which seemed to be very miserable, but there was also a smile in the misery, I don't know if he was worried about the future of Tang Shuxing and the others. Still full of despair about their future.
After Tang Shuxing got on the ship. Found Eva sitting in a daze on the boat. Q: "What are you doing?" Aren't you going to talk to the ground turtle? β
"It's not a complete Earth Turtle, it's just a part of his consciousness, and I can still see that." Eva whispered. He didn't turn his head to look at Tang Shuxing, "The current Earth Turtle is similar to Reinhardt and Gu Dan, and the Earth Turtle has also separated a part of his consciousness to hide in some other place, so that his current body can freely do what he wants, because his other part of his consciousness will not agree to him doing so." β
Tang Shuxing shook his head: "I really can't understand what you said, for us, your experience is too weird and incomprehensible, and those theories are not something that normal people can understand." β
Eva closed her eyes: "You don't need to understand at all, sometimes people think too much, they will stop, find a place to hide, and think about problems, that's why there are so many hermits in the world, these hermits are just thinking, not doing, only by doing will they have experience, people who just think, are more pathetic than guys on paper, you just think, and the result is just a simulation in a simulation, and the actual situation may be thousands of times more complicated than you think." β
"Maybe." Tang Shuxing looked at the front of the canal, "Next, are you willing to go to the October Revolution Island, or are you willing to follow me to Venice?" β
"It doesn't matter, I suddenly feel that it doesn't matter, I regret coming out of that base now, I really want to go back, I really want to go back to my own world, I don't belong here." Yiwa lowered her head, there were tears in her eyes, "Just now, I envied Gu Dan and Zmiya, they ended their lives, maybe they went to another world, in the end, they are still together, I am just an outsider." β
"Maybe......" Tang Shuxing still said, "Reinhardt is not Gu Dan after all. β
"Let's take a look." Ida got up and went back to the lower cabin.
"Anchor! Ready to go! Ah Yue shouted on the radio, and then the anchor was pulled up, Tang Shuxing stood on the deck and looked at the riverbank, those who had helped before had already left the dock, and they didn't know where to go, and now the dock was dead and lifeless.
Further afield, there doesn't seem to be any movement in the city......
When the ship left the port, the ground turtle sat alone at the center of a certain square, sitting cross-legged, looking up at the sky, all the machines around him stopped moving, maintaining the previous posture and movements, and the ground turtle suddenly wanted to stop and see what would happen after the world suddenly stopped.
"It turns out that nothing will happen, and I can't stop the world." The earth turtle lowered his head and looked at the person closest to him, "What I stopped was just what I could control, the world was still running, and the end would always come." β
The Earth Turtle sat there and smiled to himself.
β¦β¦
Ten days later, the armed cargo ship entered the Ionian Sea, and Tang Shuxing, Yi Wa, Bai Zhanqiu, Na Jincheng, and Qi Jiamei boarded the original Calabria region of Italy, and from there they took the land route to Venice, which was relatively much safer than at sea, at least there was no need to worry about fresh water, even if it was a corpse, it would be difficult to support it for too long without fresh water.
Because they were worried that they would not be able to find supplies, Ah Yue and they could not send them directly to Venice, so they could only dock and put them down, and then everyone said goodbye, Ah Yue and his party passed directly through the Strait of Mosthena, preparing to sail through the Tyrrhenian Sea, and then go to the Atlantic Ocean, and then bypass Europe and go to the Arctic Ocean.
After the separation, everyone didn't know that a few days later, the new Ismailia of the Earth Turtle Creation ZΓ o, which he called the mechanical paradise, was surrounded by the Blood Shark Army and the Sand Fox Army, as well as other warlord armies, all of whom came for revenge, and the Earth Turtle did not negotiate with them to explain the situation, but started a new round of war.
The war lasted only a week, and it can be said that both sides were defeated, but in this war, those robot walking corpses have begun to use weapons to fight, and although they finally repelled the attack of the human army, the mechanical paradise also fell into a slump, the city was destroyed again, and the ground turtle was nowhere to be found.
Half a month later, despite the opposition of other warlords, the Blood Sharks launched an intercontinental missile with a nuclear warhead from the original British mainland, directly hitting the entire Ismailia.
Subsequently, Ismailia completely disappeared from the face of the earth, and after the Blood Sharks used nuclear weapons, other warlords also began to fight for nuclear weapons in order to protect themselves.
Because there is no longer such developed communication, Tang Shuxing and the others are still in the dark, and they don't know what is happening in Ismailia, and he is even thinking about how many years, maybe a year, will take to build that kind of high wall, after all, those walking corpses don't need to rest.
"In one day's time, we will be able to reach Potenza." Bai Zhanqiu looked at the map and said, "I hope we can find a car there, we've been walking for three days." β
Walking on crutches on the barren land, from time to time worrying about the monsters that came out of the fog - the situation in Italy was even stricter than they imagined, and the pollution situation exceeded that of Spain and other places, basically the five fingers could not be seen, whether it was day or night, the particles in the haze could be seen with the naked eye.
They started looking for a car, but the car was completely scrapped after two days of driving, and then they could only walk, not daring to venture too much into the city, for fear of being ambushed by the monsters in the city, and along the way, they didn't see half a person, not even a live cat or dog or something, there were a lot of monsters, during which they encountered a wolf pack, those wolves had no hair, and their eyes were black, which looked like they should have mutated over the years.
Fortunately, they are all necrogens and will not be killed by this pollution, but it is also difficult for them to collect clean water.
A day and a half later, they finally arrived in Potanka, this small agricultural city that originally belonged to southern Italy had a small population, and the industry was not very developed, so it was not realistic to find a reliable car, and in the end they had to give up, continue walking, according to Bai Zhanqiu's speculation, towards Bari, Bai Zhanqiu had heard an Italian mercenary say that the Italian railway was in good condition, they hoped to find a train, barely started, how far they could go.
At the same time that Tang Shuxing and others were struggling to advance towards Venice, the peace conference between Shangdu and the resistance army was also held as scheduled, but the difference this time was that the resistance army elected 35 delegates and represented 35 warlords to participate in the peace conference, and the venue of the conference was actually chosen in The Hague, the Netherlands, and it was in the original Hague International Tribunal, that is, the Peace Palace in the center of The Hague City.
The 35 delegates attending the meeting did not immediately rush to The Hague, but sent a so-called temporary coalition force into The Hague, cordoned off the surrounding area, and checked whether there was an ambush in the surrounding area, and then notified the Shandu side to send someone to hold the meeting.
Incredibly, Reinhardt agreed to the resistance for the first time, Shangdu only sent a small delegation, and did not send any escort troops, and the head and deputy head of the delegation were Ji Kefeng and Gu Huaiyi.
When the delegation, consisting of only five people, not including the crew, appeared at the airport, representatives of the Resistance departed from all over the country and began to fly to The Hague......
Far away in Shangdu, Xia Jiezhu is the only one left who is now in charge of the liquidation of those fanatical cultists, and at this time she feels that this peace conference may simply be a bureau set up by Reinhardt again. (To be continued......)
