Volume 3 Hundred Sons of the Earth Chapter 89 Twilight (I)

"I need an explanation! About Finn! He doesn't know anything! Pike's radical emotions that had just been slowly healed by time were rekindled at this moment, and he simply shouted out the words when he noticed that there was no one else in the hallway. No, Finn knows everything", Ahab glanced at him, stopping Pike from saying that he was about to defend himself, "he guessed part of the truth, and it could leak out at any moment, and we can't take that risk...... Moreover, he has a tendency to connect with other children yesterday and before leaving today......"

"So what? You're going to execute Fen early? Execute that child? Pike sneered again.

"If necessary, I will," Ahab said earnestly, "and there is no need for this moment...... Finn, that kid will be held in solitary confinement and will continue to participate in the 'Sons of the Earth' program in three weeks", the judge of the Ark, the supreme powerhouse, unaffected by Pike's emotions, then looked at Pike: "Do what you have to do, Pike, for the sake of those children, for the sake of ...... For Julie, Shirley, Trist, for those who died, for those who are still alive now, for the whole Ark! ”

At the mention of the pain in his heart, Pike's eyes widened with rage, and his chest rose and fell.

Judge Ahab was expressionless.

Kane Marcus held the stun baton a little nervously, and intentionally or unintentionally turned sideways in front of Ahab, but Pike's fighting level was among the top in the Ark (otherwise he wouldn't have been able to teach Trist), and Kane was not too sure that he would directly subdue Pike. Pike angrily slammed the iron wall of the aisle, startling Abby on the side, and then Abby was pulled behind him by Marcus, who did not object and silently obeyed.

Judge Ahab remained expressionless.

Pike didn't have a seizure after all, and turned to leave. The light in the hallway stretched his shadow long, long......

"--Pike! Parker! I have a discovery...... The shell of the Ark space station is not completely insulated from space radiation...... But except for the first generation, you, me, and the younger generations who were born after us did not have a radiation reaction...... Born on the space station, it is likely that we have completed the evolution of adapting to the environment...... You said that it will take another hundred years for the surface radiation to dissipate, so how does the intensity of surface radiation compare to space radiation? Will...... If! I mean what if! Will we be able to withstand space radiation enough to survive in the Earth's radiation environment after a hundred years of ecological restoration? He couldn't help but think of Trist's bold conjecture (spoiler) when he mentioned Earth earlier. In front of him, the guards escorted the children back to the 'Black Cell' in three weeks, and at the same time, Pike silently said to himself, 'Trist, I hope you are right this time, just as you are always right......

。。。。。。

In the evening, Trist climbed out of the nuclear explosion of a hundred years ago and climbed to the top again.

Due to the existence of the high slope where he is located and the mountain wall next to it, the warm current blowing from the sea to the east forms a foehn effect under the mountain wall, and the transpiration of the sacred lake forest gives rise to a mysterious fog swamp that appears wet and warm, forming a wetland terrain of swamps, tidal flats, silt, and a fog that lasts for many years. From the high slope downward, due to the isolation of the warm wind from the sea and the southern monsoon, due to the action of high latitudes, large areas of permafrost are formed. Trist once wanted to bypass this nuclear crater with a radius of four or five kilometers and a depth of thirty or forty meters, but to the east of the crater was a rugged foothill of hundreds of meters, and to the west was a giant python's lair, which almost reminded Trist of the movie "The Disaster of the Python" in his previous life. He found the remains of a chemical plant in the far west, and he could even vaguely make out the huge chemical storage tank of the chemical plant, although he was not sure what this pre-nuclear chemical plant was producing, but it was definitely inextricably linked to the huge creatures in the mysterious fog swamp. In addition, the white mist of the Misty Swamp is poisonous, and although it is not as good as the "acid mist", the weapon of the mountain people, it can also cause dizziness and swelling in the limbs if inhaled for too long. Climbing up a forty or fifty-meter slope had wasted too much of Trist's time, and from the high ramp in front of him to the center of a hundred years of nuclear explosions, he had slid down in a fight with a giant crocodile. This giant crocodile and the previous python, under the dual stimulation of nuclear radiation and chemical plant waste, showed Trist what "Resident Evil" is. Although it was the nest of the giant crocodile, and the giant crocodile was dead, Trist was worried that the dead giant crocodile would have any brothers and sisters or even seven aunts and eight aunts, so he did not dare to stay for a long time.

He stood on the slope and looked north, and in the gloomy sky in the distance, the jackdaws could be faintly seen, and beneath the gray sky, a huge city ruins unfolded in front of him.

What is certain is that the city was absolutely huge in size at the time of the nuclear war that destroyed the world a hundred years ago.

From above, the land in front of him was a mess, with craters of all sizes making it almost like the surface of the moon, and there were more than a dozen craters about the size of the nuclear bomb crater behind Trist. It can be seen that in that war, the city in front of Trist has suffered a significant blow, and it seems to be the object of attention.

The ruins of the city in the twilight, like an old man who is about to die, silently tell the glory of the past.

He couldn't help but take a few steps back, for the desolation.

The boy bowed slowly, for the glory of the past.

Although his previous life had no connection with this plane, his experience in this life on the Ark space station was nothing but coldness and despair. However, human beings always have certain feelings in common, the vastness of the stars, the desolation of the universe, the parting of life and death, the rebirth of desperate situations, the endless dreams and hopes of the past, the magnificent beings of the past, the miracles born under despair, and the dawn of civilization...... No matter how brilliant it is, it will eventually come to an end, maybe it's just a little joke made by fate, just a little bit of the artificial intelligence AI Ellie, who can only calculate rationally, and everything ended in the grand fireworks a hundred years ago.

Inexplicably, Trist was a little lonely.

After the mourning, he shouldered his backpack and continued his journey.

If when he first arrived, his goal was to find useful things from the ruins and ruins, in preparation for a trip to the sea in a few weeks, but now, he suddenly wanted to take a good walk forward and take a look.

He could imagine that the earth in 2048 A.D., the city before 96 years, maybe at that time there was a great society with no worries about food and clothing, maybe not, or even polarized, with high-level singing and dancing, and people in the slums struggling. On the steel streets, there are vehicles coming and going, igniting the fire of human civilization thousands of years ago, slowly burning in the deep dark sky, blooming the most dazzling colors.

He can deduce from the Ark that human beings in 2048 already have mature aerospace technology, the overture of the space age has been played, and the sky will no longer be able to stop the footsteps of human beings, and human beings can almost blow the clarion call of exploration and discovery to outer space......

It's just that all of this came to an abrupt end at that moment.

According to the records in the Ark database, nuclear wars occurred at the same time, synchronously, and reached their maximum in an instant, affecting the whole world.

The pre-war countries, from the three superpowers of Seris, America, and Rakshasa to those sub-powers, all possessed weapons capable of destroying the world, submarines cruising in the deep sea, bases in desert canyons, and platforms in space bases...... They did a good job of preserving and using this world-destroying force, and as a result, the earth was destroyed.

Maybe it's the early morning when the sun rises, people find that the sun is a little dazzling, maybe it's the noon when the sun is scorching, people find the world around them shaking, maybe it's the night when the moon is sparse, people find that "shooting stars" fall from the sky...... Then, all of this happened, and their lives, along with the entire human civilization, came to an end in an instant.

The city in the twilight seems to be whimpering in the depths of history.
