Chapter 3 Projection
Five minutes later.
Cheng Lin's desire to explore is gone.
Because he found that this world, which had been destroyed by fire and rained for several months, was really desolate.
The buildings of the city, which used to be densely packed, have long since collapsed into a pile of ruins.
Before, Cheng Lin was not sure what kind of temperature the sun had risen, but now he had an estimate in his heart.
"At least a few thousand degrees, if you don't do it, it will be tens of thousands of degrees."
His academic performance is not good, because the relationship between his parents and family is extremely bad since he was a child, which leads to not caring about him very much, which also makes Cheng Lin once disgusted with school, although his IQ is not low, and his learning ability is even better than ordinary peers, but his grades are still not good.
As a result, despite trying to remember, you still can't remember the melting points of concrete, rebar, masonry, and so on.
I only vaguely remember that it was only a few thousand degrees above and below.
And the ability to burn a city into a charred black mixture is enough to explain the horror of the temperature.
Yes, a lump.
Cheng Lin can only describe the scenery in front of him in this way.
Most of the feet are in a state of black glass, but the terrain is undulating.
He seemed to be walking in a graveyard of human civilization, except for the barely smooth ground, there were only those charred lumps in the distance, like tombs.
Some are taller, some are lower.
It's completely out of sight.
[Coagulated substance: A mixture of substances formed after melting and cooling at high temperatures]
When Cheng Lin touched those lumps of things with his hands, he automatically gave such a text explanation in his mind.
"Mixture?"
Cheng Lin touched the other parts again, as well as the ground, and got the same information.
He immediately realized that this should be a fusion of steel, masonry, plastic, and all other things in the city, and because of the complex composition, it has such a general name.
Maybe there's still human body remnants here.
"But if it's that high, I'm afraid even the bones will burn out."
Cheng Lin muttered to himself, the city was already in ruins, he looked into the distance, as far as his eyes could reach, it was almost exactly the same scene, the city had never been so open.
After trying to touch it for a while, he stopped doing it.
Rather, it walks forward.
After the rain, the ground is still a little damp and wet, and some potholes are still accumulating water, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.
Cheng Lin looked up and was relieved to find that the sky was so clear.
The blue sky seemed to be washed by water, pure, flat, long, natural, cloudless, as translucent as a baby's eyes.
"It's beautiful."
Cheng Lin couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration, he had lived in the city for a long time, he hadn't seen such a clear sky, haze, urban light pollution, noise, exhaust fumes...... All of this is gone, and there is only the gentle sound of the wind in my ears, and the silence is incomparable.
[You witness the ruins of the city after the apocalypse, you feel that civilization is so fragile, you look up and see the most beautiful nature, you feel extremely open-minded, and you can't help but exclaim]
Cheng Lin was used to the appearance of this voice in his mind, and he didn't react when he heard it, just as it was a background sound.
After feeling emotional, Cheng Lin decided to continue to move forward.
He hadn't expected much, but after climbing over a ruined hill, his eyes suddenly lit up.
There was a harsh reflection in the pile of ruins in front of them.
"What's that?"
Cheng Lin hurriedly walked over, squatted down, and picked up some of the floating dust in a wet debris state.
Then the gleaming golden substance was revealed.
[You were suddenly attracted by a light, walked over, and were stunned to find that it was a small piece of gold]
[Gold solidified in ruins: formed after melting at high temperature and then cooling and solidifying]
"Gold?"
Cheng Lin was taken aback, this piece of gold was not big, it was embedded in the black solidified substance, and only a little bit was exposed.
He blinked, using the location of his home as a coordinate, remembering the original buildings nearby.
Cheng Lin had a good sense of direction, and he quickly remembered that there seemed to be a gold store nearby.
"It seems to be called Eslite Building......"
It seems that this place should be the ruins of the gold shop, but I didn't expect the gold to still maintain its original color.
"I seem to remember a teacher who said that in nature, gold is a very rare metal in the form of a single substance, but I didn't expect it to be true, this store is really not cheating."
Cheng Lin couldn't help but smile, and suddenly his eyes moved, thinking if he could dig out the gold and take it away.
Although they have solidified together, they have a toolbox in their "safe house", and they should be able to chop it with an axe.
It's just that as soon as this thought arose, he was ruthlessly poured a basin of cold water.
[A bad thought arose in your heart, wanting to take the gold for yourself, but you were stunned to find that the things here could not be taken away at all]
Cheng Lin: "......"
What do you mean by bad thoughts?
Will it be worded?
It's clearly ownerless, okay?
Cheng Lin was angry, but he finally knew, it seemed that he couldn't take the things in this world away, which made him disappointed for a while.
"So, all I can get is the so-called mission reward."
Cheng Lin thought to himself, no longer nostalgic, and continued to move forward.
After walking for about a few hundred meters, I suddenly received a prompt.
[After some hard work, you have completed the exploration mission]
[The mission is complete, you have successfully appreciated a trend of civilization, before leaving, you decided to leave a mark to prove that you have been here, you thought for a while, and decided to engrave your name]
[Hint: After carving your name, please return to the safe house, the deduction will end, and the task reward will be distributed after the end]
……
Cheng Lin was helpless, but he agreed with the message.
When you come to the ruins of civilization yourself, you should also carve a souvenir.
He turned back to the safe house, and dug through the toolbox to find a hammer and a delicate chisel.
He returned to the outside of the house, found a fairly smooth "hill" surface, and engraved his name.
When he was done, he returned to the house with his toolbox.
[You're back in the safe house, do you want to end this exercise?] 】
It seems that this still needs to be confirmed manually by him.
Cheng Lin nodded decisively: "Yes!" ”
[The deduction will end in 10 seconds...... 10、9、8…… 0】
[The deduction is over!] 】
The scenery outside the window suddenly blurred, and the ground shook slightly, this time Cheng Lin was mentally prepared, but he was not very nervous.
After a few seconds, everything was back to normal.
He looked out the window again......
In the summer, cars drive on the streets, and the occasional whistle makes a disgruntled pedestrian.
A girl in a white dress is walking under a street tree.
The trees were very strong, and the repaired branches were luxuriant, green, and normal.
Everything was restored.
"Sure enough, it's fake."
Cheng Lin stood in front of the window, exhaled deeply, and let go of his palm, his palm was already drenched with sweat.
It was only then that he was completely sure.
Turn your head to look at the computer......
On the screen is a background image of that universe, the only red button, and the small line:
[At every moment, there are a million possibilities for the direction of civilization]
Cheng Lin suddenly shuddered.
It's exciting......
"By the way, what about my reward?"
Cheng Lin suddenly remembered this incident.
[Congratulations on completing Chapter: Doomsday (Skyfire) and starting to distribute rewards]
[Reward - Character Attribute - Fire Resistance +3]
……
Cheng Lin stood for a while, making sure there was nothing else.
There is only one such reward.
"Attributes? Fire Resist +3? What is this? ”
Cheng Lin was stunned for a moment, according to his familiar explanation, the full name of this fire resistance should be "flame resistance", which is generally the attribute of a certain piece of equipment in online games, and after wearing it, the fire damage will be reduced or the like.
Is this what this fire resistance means?
Is it directly applied to your body?
Yourself, now more fire-resistant than before?
Cheng Lin was a little messy, but he couldn't try it, he didn't feel any changes in his body, so he couldn't light the fire and try the effect by himself, right?
He's not retarded.
[Chapter: Doomsday (Skyfire) has been classified in the History Library]
Suddenly, there was another hint.
Cheng Lin came to the computer and found that there was a very inconspicuous word "History Library" in the lower right corner of the screen.
Click on it, and you will see a new interface, where a picture that says "Doomsday (Skyfire)" is lying quietly.
Translucent.
I tried to click on it, but there was no response at all, it should be non-clickable.
"It's the equivalent of a historical record or an achievement medal or something."
Cheng Lin operated and realized.
At this time, suddenly, the chat software hanging in the lower right corner of the computer suddenly shook.
There is a message prompting.
Cheng Lin thought about it, turned off this inexplicable and wonderful cosmic starry sky interface, and then clicked on the message reminder.
It's a message in the class group.
To be precise, it used to be a group of 3 classes in the third year of high school, and after the college entrance examination, the group owner of this group was also transferred to the class leader by the head teacher, and the name of the group was also modified to "Forever Class 3".
Because most of the students live in the city, and their homes are not far away, it is more convenient to organize outings in the group.
I took a look, and it was a message from the squad leader @ all the staff.
Squad leader: "Everyone is not there?" Are you there? You know that, right? Something happened near my house just now!! ”
A few group members bubbled up to reply.
"What's wrong, what's going on?"
"yes, could it be that you saw someone awaken again? Or is there a spiritual place near your home? ”
"Class leader, your wolf routine is no longer good, all day long you are either fantasizing and awakening, or you feel that the aura around you is gathered...... You'd better save it, the government drew blood before, and it was determined that you had no talent......"
The students all know their class leader's routines and are already immune.
However, this time, the squad leader was particularly excited.
"This time it's true! Something really happened! Don't believe it! It's definitely a miraculous phenomenon! I bet it definitely has something to do with Reiki! ”
As he spoke, he posted another video.
Cheng Lin always peeped at the screen, did not speak, and clicked on it casually at this time.
Then he froze.
The video was taken with a mobile phone, and the scene taken was a scene outside the window, in the picture, I saw a layer of translucent pictures on an unconstructed construction site in the city!
The image is in an illusory state, like a mirage, and like a 3D projection, appearing on the construction site.
As for the content of the picture, it is a black ruin.
The pitch black seems to have been burned, and on the potholed earth, there are large and small "grave bags" distributed undulatingly, and the lens can see the appearance of the surface of those substances in a glazed state, as if they have undergone high temperatures, and some pits are filled with water, giving people a feeling that it has just rained.
This mirage-like phantom occupies the entire area of the construction site, and at this moment, there are already many people watching and taking pictures nearby.
The scene was so magical that even though it had been months since the revival of the Reiki, people were still intrigued.
They had never heard of Reiki resurgence causing such a strange sight.
The pot has exploded in the class group.
In front of the computer, Cheng Lin only felt shortness of breath.
That scene is clearly deduced by myself just now!
How can it be projected into reality?
Could it be that the scenes you deduce will be projected and embodied in the real world?
Cheng Lin couldn't sit still.
