When Zhang Li heard Mary recount all this in a calm tone, his whole heart went cold.

He didn't expect that the world outside the forest would be so cruel and desperate.

The first time a child is born, it is not breastfeeding, but sent to a special institution for testing, and if it is not a healthy child, it is basically immediately disposed of, so as not to waste the resources that are already lacking in the future.

Even if you are healthy, you can't escape another option.

They perform an operation to cut off most of the body's internal organs and perform ligations in the most subtle areas to ensure that all the food they eat is perfectly utilized.

Such an undergoing operation may only need a small bite of food a day to maintain the needs of life.

However, malnutrition and various stubborn diseases can affect people's bodies all the time, making them suffer.

People who grow up like this are probably difficult for even normal children to beat.

Of course, you can also choose to fight once, use a forbidden operation, make people's souls burn, shorten most of their lifespan, and hardly need much food in the early stage, and rely solely on the tenacious vitality brought by their own soul burning to survive.

And this time the struggle is to be able to ignite the fire of their own life in the early exercise, so that their bodies can live more smoothly in this harsh world.

Igniting the flame is the life-of-the-world helpless struggle against this apocalyptic world.

The life of this world, the first flame lit is called the fire of life, and the effect is very simple, that is, it can rely on itself to rob enough nutrients and energy from the surroundings.

It's like a chloroplast, which can survive with sunlight and water.

At the same time, the fire of life can also allow individuals to gain strong survival adaptability, even poisonous water can be drunk hard, although it will bring some adverse effects, but it will not die because of it.

Of course, this way of living is also a subsistence life, and it is still necessary to have enough food and other nutrients to allow yourself to grow again and ignite a second flame.

The second flame is called the Flame of Will, which is the ambition of the creatures who are not willing to die in this apocalyptic world against heaven and earth, and the will to be able to reverse reality with itself.

Lighting this flame gives you the ability to be like a spell, which is a supernatural power.

It is the power that is derived from one's own will and body.

Then, there is the third and fourth flames, each with a variety of different abilities.

Because Maria had no way of seeing the knowledge behind, she naturally couldn't talk to Zhang Li.

However, these flames are all arms that can help people live smoothly in this world, and only by lighting the flames can they be counted as a real life in this world.

It's just that in Luosha Town, it is very rare to be able to do this.

Zhang Li listened to Maria talk about the situation in this world, and sighed in his heart, this kind of apocalyptic world, no wonder that person said that this place will be looked at by others, like a mad dog.

These trees, which are scarce and difficult to see in the outside world, can sustain the life rations of a large area such as Luosha Town, but they are actually insects.

A bug the size of a human finger with a hard carapace.

In Luosha Town, in most cases, the upper-class people eat the meat of the insects, and the lower-class people eat the things made by mixing the internal organs and carapace of the insects and crushing them, in short, the faces of Zhang Li are a little green when they hear this.

It's really like hell out there, it's not a place for people to stay.

But looking at Mary's demeanor, she seems to have become accustomed to this.

This made Zhang Li feel a little chilled.

Am I going to have to eat bugs in the future? And the kind that can't eat meat?

Zhang Li took a deep breath and felt that things seemed to be extremely bad.

After Maria in front of her said these things, she suddenly touched her stomach a little embarrassed, and Zhang Li was still in a daze, when he heard a gurgling sound coming from the girl in front of her.

He understood immediately.

"Are you hungry?" Zhang Li looked at the girl and asked, seeing her nodding shyly, he also began to feel a little embarrassed.

Food problems! Thinking that he would have to rely on insects for a living in the future, Zhang Li was extremely reluctant to take out some of his remaining food, but after thinking about it, the other party told him so much news, he couldn't just hang the other party like this, right?

I don't know if the water in the Lake of Life still has the effect of filling the stomach.

But that's it, isn't it too much?

Zhang Li hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, took out a piece of bread from his backpack, and handed it to the girl: "Here you go, eat it." ”

It was still food that came with his backpack, and he had only eaten one piece, and then he was almost completely sustained by the Fountain of Life.

"What is this?" Maria took the bread handed over by Zhang Li, and looked at the soft, white and pure thing in her hand with some puzzlement, she had never seen such food, and in her impression, most of what she ate was a kind of mushy thing.

The fishy smell and slippery taste are all her impressions of food. But even that kind of thing is supreme delicious for many people in Luosha Town.

"It's bread." Zhang Li also took out a slice of bread, tore off a corner and stuffed it into his mouth to demonstrate to her, "Just eat it." ”

The girl Maria timidly imitated Zhang Li to tear off a corner of the bread and carefully stuff it into her mouth, the first time she ate this kind of thing, she was very worried.

But when the bread was in her mouth, the soft and sweet taste instantly swept through her heart.

"Delicious!" The two words swirled in her mind, and that kind of happiness even made her cry.

Seeing that the girl was crying when she ate, Zhang Li couldn't help but want to complain about two sentences.

It's just a plain white bread, but that's what it looks like? If you are given the food of my Great China, you will not be able to go to heaven!

But he held back the thought, because he suddenly understood from the other party's attitude why such a thing happened.

Thinking of his future, Zhang Li couldn't help but sigh, I'm afraid that in the future, he will show the same expression as her for such white bread.

He shook his head slightly, he was no longer in the mood to continue eating bread, and put it in his backpack, and his mood was suddenly extremely gloomy.

The girl was like a hamster, slowly but firmly biting the white bread in her hand one bite at a time, until she finished eating, she was still unwilling to lick her hand with her small tongue, in a vain attempt to lock the fragrant smell of bread firmly in her mouth.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Li was suddenly extremely sad, and he couldn't help but take out a candy and hand it to her, regardless of what happened to him in the future: "Come, let's have some dessert after dinner." ”

White rabbit toffee, Zhang Li's favorite!
