Chapter 148: The Apocalyptic World
The layout of the city is distinct, in the outermost part is the slum, where the people live in the most dilapidated houses, receive the most basic food provided by the base, and only starve and freeze to death, but the closer to the center, the more prosperous the buildings become, and even return to the bright lights of the old peacetime.
No matter what the era, there will always be obvious classes, and in this chaotic era, such class divisions are even more obvious.
Walking around the base, they found a very amazing thing, almost everyone had at least G-level physical fitness, and even from time to time they could see many people whose strength even Yu Hao couldn't guess.
It's just strange that the more powerful people are, the more they like to wrap their bodies tightly, and they don't know what's going on.
"Let's find a place to settle down first!" They came to the middle class of the city, which is almost the same as everyone else in the real world, with supermarkets and hotels, as well as schools and hospitals.
After such a big change, the economic system of this world must have collapsed, and it is estimated that the former currency will no longer be used, but everyone has a lot of gold and diamonds, no matter what era, precious metals will always maintain their value, which is an eternal law.
They found a place similar to a pawnshop, and exchanged a few hundred grams of gold for a circulating currency called soul coins, but the strange thing is that this currency does not seem to be made of ordinary metal, and there is a very strange energy in the currency, which can actually dissolve the mysterious energy in the air of this world that affects living organisms to a certain extent.
The more they learned, the more curious they became about this world, and the purchasing power of soul coins was relatively strong, 200 grams of gold were exchanged for more than 200 soul coins, and ten soul coins were enough for them to stay in an ordinary hotel for a month.
Anyway, they also need to live in this world for half a year, so the world has chartered a few rooms for half a year, and the boss has also discounted them very humanely, only collecting 55 soul coins, and also covering them for three meals at a time.
……
"Hurry up, hurry up, have you found it!" In a room, more than a dozen people sat together, and fortunately, although it was in a near-apocalyptic era, there was still an Internet presence in the city, and with the Internet, they could get all the information they wanted.
"Okay, okay, stop arguing, I've got all the information!" Sun Zihan downloaded all the materials they needed, and with the technology far ahead of this era, it was really not difficult to get these materials.
Finally, they opened the door that recorded the secrets of this world.
On July 6, 2058, the world ushered in an extraordinary meteorite rain, the scale of the meteorite rain is extremely large, covering almost 70% of the entire earth's area, the ocean, land, plateau, all of which are spared, although these meteorites have been rubbed by the atmosphere, almost not much of them fall on the ground, but those debris powder has been accompanied by a rain.
However, the amazing thing is that this rain actually changed everyone in the world, and they found that their physical fitness has changed dramatically in just a few days, with the average person's physical fitness doubling and some people becoming infinitely stronger.
They found that there was a very strange energy in that rain, and it was enough to change the whole world
Soon, however, those energies also affected other animals and plants, and unlike humans, they underwent terrible mutations and even became extremely murderous, but with the help of armies and powerful weapons, these creatures were temporarily suppressed by humans.
Until one day, twelve pillars of light descended from the sky, each pillar of light had a diameter of hundreds of meters, and a creature called a soul beast emerged from it, some were weak, because some were extremely powerful, they led countless mutated creatures to rush into the human city, and the thousand-year-old civilization inheritance was destroyed in an instant.
Under the ravages of those creatures, the living space of human beings is getting smaller and smaller, and finally one day, human beings find that there is actually a magical crystal on the body of that kind of soul beast, as long as they absorb the power of that crystal, they can actually have the power of soul beasts!
The most powerful soul beast is enough to move mountains and reclaim the sea, and human beings have such power, and suddenly become no different from the gods in mythology, relying on the companion soul beasts, human beings have finally gained a firm foothold in this era, and there are more and more strong people in the human race, and they have gradually stopped the speed of the appearance of soul beasts.
It turned out that at the end of the twelve pillars of light was something similar to a wormhole, and the two worlds were connected, and the soul beast and the meteorite rain both came from that world.
However, the power is not without a price, the human beings who have the soul beast are powerful, but their bodies have been eroded by the power of the soul beast, the stronger the person, the more serious this erosion is, although they still retain the appearance of humans, but many parts have already appeared the signs of those soul beasts, so they will see those people who wrap themselves tightly, because some mutations have extended to their necks and even faces.
And the reason why the soul coin can become the circulating currency of this world is because the energy in the soul coin can suppress this mutation, and the soul coin is extracted from the soul beast crystal, and the two powers are of the same origin, so in addition to the soul coin, the soul beast crystal is the most valuable thing in this world.
This world divides the power into nine levels, so far, there are a total of 12 ninth-order soul beasts on the earth, they live in those twelve pillars of light, and there are only seven ninth-order powerhouses in the human race.
Coincidentally, that Raging Sea Lord was an eighth-order peak powerhouse, and it was also the owner of this Raging Sea Central Base!
Relying on these materials, they finally figured out the background of this apocalyptic world, it is very simple to find soul beasts, near those twelve pillars of light, there are as many soul beasts as they want, of course, the premise is that they can come there alive and go back alive.
But even the powerhouses of the Eighth Order didn't dare to say that they could walk there, and those twelve pillars of light were the most dangerous places in this world.
"What should we do, can we only gamble and hunt soul beasts on the edge of those pillars of light? Isn't this looking for death? ”
"Hahaha, don't worry, the people in this world are not so stupid, if the soul beast is really so difficult to kill, where can there be so many powerful people in this world?" On the road just now, they could see a lot of people who had fused soul beast crystals at intervals.
Sun Zinuo swiped casually, and square areas were divided.
"These places are soul beast hunting grounds, and these seven ninth-order powerhouses will go to the pillar of light every once in a while to catch soul beasts and put them in, some strong and some weak, this is the best place for us to obtain soul beast crystals!"
