Chapter 364: A Barren City
A meteor struck a blazing flame, and under the light of the sunset, it slammed into the ground, and exploded into a huge tremor.
"Ahem......"
Feeling a bit of discomfort in his lungs, Chen Shi coughed a few times, and then he had the energy to look around.
"Where is this?"
He was in what appeared to be a street, and a crater had been created by the impact he had fallen from the sky, but it couldn't have made the whole street so deserted.
Even the surrounding high-rise buildings have become ruins.
Green plants are densely scattered on the high-rise buildings and streets, and the cobweb-like cracks have become the main body of the concrete floor of the street, as if there has been no human appearance here for decades.
"Here ......"
A ruined city?
He could see that these hundred-story buildings abounded, and it was obvious that it should be an extremely prosperous city.
His mood when he was just happy instantly became cautious, the appearance of the modern mansion proved that this was no longer ancient, but this scene like the end of the world could not make people happy.
Without thinking about it anymore, Chen Shi looked at the high-rise building next to him, and with one step, the cement floor, which could not withstand too much pressure, suddenly cracked, and the whole person jumped up through the air, grabbed the vines attached to the exterior of the building, and jumped again, like a flea.
As his experience in using the gamma suit deepened, Chen Shidi's movements became more and more agile, and he reached the top floor of this building in a short time.
He had just seen the inside of the building through the broken windows, and it was no longer moldy, but overgrown with vines, long since been rotted by water vapor.
Occasionally, the room without plants is also densely covered with moist soil, like a swamp, and it can be said that you can sink your thighs into it when you step into it.
When he came to the roof of the building, he looked out at the surroundings from afar, and his face began to sink.
The worst has happened, it is obviously a very large modern metropolis, but the original prosperity of the city has been replaced by desolation and dilapidation, or perhaps covered with greenery.
On the earth in the 21st century, it is impossible for a city of this scale to be abandoned, and this scale is no less than that of super first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.
How is it possible to give up?
"What era is this?"
He muttered for a while, the city was covered by greenery too wide and deep, which could not only be done in a few years, but at least for more than a few decades.
Coming to a strange era again, Chen Shi felt powerless.
Flying down from the sky, the cube is again nowhere to be found, if the last era could still be used with the help of manpower, then what about this era? The era when not a single figure can be seen is like the end of the world.
He thought about it, tried to go down from the rooftop, and found that the normal staircase had collapsed and blocked, so he could only choose to go down from the exterior of the building, find a few empty rooms, and search for a while, but did not find any newspapers and books, but saw a lot of electronic products, but unfortunately they were damaged.
In addition, judging from these electronic products, such as a few slim and smooth paper-like monitors, the world's technological level should be higher than that of the beginning of the 21st century.
However, it is certainly nowhere near as exaggerated as it was in the 25th century.
It's been too long, and there is no manpower to maintain it, even if he finds a book, Chen Shi estimates that it will rot to the point where he can't read it.
Only then did he discover that in fact, human civilization is very fragile, such as knowledge, if there is no good environmental protection, such as the disappearance of human beings, then the so-called books that can be carefully preserved for thousands of years will soon decay and disappear.
The so-called electronic storage devices often only have a storage life of ten or even ten years, once they are not powered on, or exposed to high temperature and humidity, it will not be that long before the saved data will disappear.
Perhaps the data stored on CD-ROMs and tapes should be a little bit older, but the premise is that the environment is well preserved, and it is placed in this environment where green plants grow freely, and Chen Shi does not report it with an optimistic attitude.
And this civilization, which seems to be a little more advanced than mankind in 2018, is not advanced enough to open a huge gap, at most about ten years, Chen Shi's efforts to find clues were quickly blocked by the power of nature.
"No clues."
Chen Shi had a headache and searched for several floors in a row, but he had to give up such a wasted effort, jumped down the stairs directly, and came to the empty, empty and cold street.
Green plants cover the whole city, it seems that in the world in 2018, there is no possibility of a big city with a higher green plant coverage rate than this, only the streets are quite wide, only the broken places have plants growing, and it is not really terrible to cover all places.
The streets are lined with rusty skulls, the rubber of the wheels long since rotten, and only four wheels are still on them.
It's so rotten that Chen Shi has never seen it in the scrapyard where the vehicle is recycled, maybe he has only seen it in the movie.
War?
Man-made disaster?
Act of God?
Wouldn't it, dozens of times ago, and now I have suddenly made myself to the end of the world?
Chen Shi's anger was brewing in his heart, if that guy who claimed to be himself was standing here, he really wanted to do it desperately, what kind of grudge did he have in the, and he wanted to cheat himself like this?
Walking several streets in a row, I didn't see a single figure, and what was even more strange was that I didn't see a single animal, I didn't even hear a bird's call, and the whole city seemed to have only green plants still alive, and the rest of the animals had all disappeared.
How is this possible?
At least insects, too, right?
Otherwise, how can plants spread pollen.
At this time, Chen Shi suddenly realized that those green plants were also species he had never seen before.
This world ...... What the hell is going on?
He was vaguely uneasy, stunned for a moment, and then sat down decadently.
No matter how anxious he was before, there were still human beings, but this time he seemed to be in big trouble, not only did he not find his way home, but he also fell into an even more terrible historical line.
Gradually, time does not shift according to his will, the sunset is about to disappear, the night covers the earth, and the original green city is replaced by black.
In any case, this is a strange place after all, Chen Shi dispels the decadence and stands up vigilantly, he doesn't know what is happening here, but the disappearance of the human race is certain, it represents an unknown danger lurking here.
He can't afford to be careless, especially at night when he loses the city's lights and can't see his fingers.
