Chapter 15 Transition Corridors
"The fruit of the gods is available for us to eat." Wenda pointed to the opposite side, some camel people were eating the Divine Fruit, but judging from their expressions, the flesh was not as delicious as watermelon pulp, "Just a little bit can replenish the physical strength for a few days, which is also the peculiarity of the Divine Fruit." ”
Natasha smiled slightly, most of her teeth bared, "Now you can decide whether you want to live underground or not, of course, this is not your only choice. ”
"Where else can we go?" Jiang Yilang marveled at the perseverance of human beings, but such a life that would never see the light of day was not what he expected.
"A transitional corridor between deserts and cities." Wenda had some water and divine flesh fetched, "Some of the exiles have made this choice, and of course you are welcome to leave, after all, the resources of the desert are limited. ”
Jiang Yilang looked at Drew, both of whom had stubborn personalities: "We must go back to Ju'an City to ask for an explanation, and we can't let everyone go unclear." ”
"Yes, why do you want to get rid of all the people in the city?" Drew also came to the spirit, "The league does need to explain to the public. ”
Natasha looked at the light in the pipe and said gently, "The transition corridor is a certain distance from here, you can rest here tonight, and it is best to set off tomorrow morning when the sun has not yet risen." ”
This night, Jiang Yilang curled up in the cave and couldn't sleep for a long time, the sour taste of the black water was too strong, and the skin and flesh of the divine fruit were difficult to swallow at all, and it was the belief in survival that made the camel people adapt to the harsh environment.
The next day, in the starlit morning, the temperature of the desert returned to a range acceptable to humans, and Natasha sent the four out of the abyss and showed them the way.
The four of them had plenty of rest and hope, and continued to advance towards the Eastern Ju'an City, the suspended armor had not traveled for long, but it had already taken them a long distance.
The thunder dragon bit the skin and flesh of the god fruit, and his sleepy eyes did not have a trace of vitality: "Alien food that is difficult to swallow, can the earthlings eat them?" ”
"It's not the earthlings, it's the camels that eat them." Jiang Yilang has seen the picture brought up by Director Hash, "Anhe Hospital uses divine fruit to provide equipment energy, but they use it for food. ”
Kamei is a pessimist, and she sobs from time to time along the way: "Do you say that except for Ju'an City, has the whole world become a desert?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, there are so many global branches in Anhe Hospital." Drew interrupted his anxiety, "We must go back alive, the camel people race is so large and a threat to humanity, we have to go back and alert the upper echelons of the Alliance." ”
Kamei shook her head and cried: "Didn't they already say that we will never be able to go back to Ju'an City?" ”
"Don't be discouraged, there are a lot of humans in the Transition Corridor who have been expelled just like us." Jiang Yilang is also full of confidence, "No matter what, as long as you meet with everyone, there must be a way." ”
After climbing over several sand dunes, the scorching sun began to ravage the earth, and the temperature of the yellow sand suddenly increased, blowing out the dry bones of human beings from time to time, which is the most direct torture of life by the environment.
Lei Long was old, and his physical strength was exhausted after a long period of suffering, so he sat down very calmly: "The water has been drunk, the food has been eaten, and I will not leave...... I just can't do it anymore. ”
"The minute you sit here is dangerous." Drew wanted to help him up, but was rejected by the thunder dragon, "Elder Lei, we will definitely be able to pass with more effort." ”
Jiang Yilang also wanted to come over to help, but at this moment, Lei Lao's face was already pale: "Yes, the two of us are supporting you." ”
Lei Lao's white hair fluttered in the wind, the sand and soil settled on his face, and his pupils began to scatter: "I can't be a drag on you, let's go." ”
Drew looked east, still without other clues, and he couldn't guarantee how long it would take him to get to the transition corridor: "Hey...... Why don't we take a break. ”
"It's useless! It's useless! It's still a desert in the past, and it's still a desert in front. Kamei also sat down next to the thunder dragon, he took off his shoes, the abscesses covered the soles of his feet, and the pus dried in the epidermis had seeped into the blood vessels, "We can't go back to Ju'an City, we should stay in the cave all the time, at least we can live for a few more days!" ”
Drew kicked Kame excitedly: "Useless thing, do you want to become that kind of monster?" ”
"Monsters?" Kame rolled in the sand, crying and screaming, "At least they can live well underground, what about us?" Homeless mourning dogs, the city has abandoned us. ”
Jiang Yilang still wanted to drag the thunder dragon, but his physical strength had already consumed a lot.
"Alright, alright." Brontosaurus's voice was calm and calm, and he pointed at Kamei and said, "You two let's go, I'll keep a good watch on him here, it's not appropriate for us to go to the transition corridor." ”
Drew nodded dissatisfied: "If you stay here, you will die, and you can only live if you go out." ”
"This is the evolution of life, and weak individuals should be eliminated." The thunder dragon waved his hand and sat on the desert like a pile of stones, "Let's go, you don't need to talk about benevolence and morality in the face of survival, if you want to survive, you have to force yourself to adapt to the environment quickly, you look at those camel people." ”
"But ......" Jiang Yilang still wanted to persuade, but was pulled forward by Drew, "just give up on them?" ”
Drew dragged hard, and the two of them quickly rolled down the sand dune, and when they got up again, they were already far away from the sand dunes: "This is not giving up, this is survival of the fittest, natural selection." ”
The scorching sun was in the sky, the temperature of the sand rose to more than 60 degrees again, Jiang Yilang and Drew walked crookedly, even rolling and climbing, but they kept moving forward, and after a long time, they finally saw an oasis, a real oasis, behind a sand dune.
Rows of green Divine Fruits stand on the surface of the ground, wrapped like cactus balls around the only source of water, and behind the water source is a towering metal wall that stretches infinitely on either side, with no end in sight.
"Water! Water! The two ran frantically towards the pool in the desert, and just as they were about to jump in to drink and wash, a group of humans, with burnt skin, emerged from the low mound of earth.
"Newcomer, stop!" A middle-aged man with a head full of sand raised an iron rod, "The water source is the life of the transition corridor, and you will never be allowed to pollute it!" ”
"Drink!" At the sound of the order, the others raised their iron rods and crossed the front, like an ancient marching formation.
Jiang Yilang looked at the state of those people carefully, they were human, but their eyebrows became longer, their eyes became smaller, their nose hair was slightly thicker, and the hair on the top of their heads became covered like a hat, which should be to be able to shield themselves from the wind and sand: "We want to go back to Ju'an City!" ”
"Back to the city? Hahahaha. The middle-aged man laughed loudly and turned his head to point to a tall city wall, "The height of the wall of creation has reached 1 kilometer, how do you go back to the city, or think about how to obey the order of the transition corridor and live well." ”
The two of them looked at the metal-clad wall, and the human eye could no longer see the end of this height: "At least there are decent humans in the transition corridor, at least they can live with humans." ”
"Instructor, come and take these two newcomers." The middle-aged man waved his hand, and two tightly wrapped people came up next to him, who were women from the general outline, "Let them learn the rules well, the long days have just begun." ”
The woman stretched out her hand, and her palms were covered with thick blisters, the result of long-term manual labor: "Follow us to the newcomer training camp of the Wall of Creation, and the instructor will tell you how to survive." ”
