Chapter 2: A New World
0002
When Nicholas Chen woke up again, he became a baby.
In front of him was a towering tree, and the thick shade of the tree covered the storm outside, so that Chen Tingzhi, who was wrapped in a small animal skin swaddling clothes, had a stable environment.
"What the hell? Whose reverberation is this? β
Chen Tingzhi turned his head, and was surprised to find that outside the shade of the trees within a few minutes, there was a bleak wind and rain and a dark sky, and he felt a little inexplicable.
"Didn't you say that the aftermath is a fantasy world where dreams come true? Why is it not peaceful and warm here, but a post-apocalyptic painting? Could it be a guy who wants to take revenge on society? β
Chen Tingzhi struggled and rolled, turning from a lying position to a lying position, and then he moved his chubby little hands and feet to the edge of the shade, trying to see more clearly.
However, the moment Nicholas Chan came into contact with the wind and rain outside, the world changed.
Countless lightning and thunder suddenly appeared in the air, and the blue-white thick current and the deafening rolling thunder frightened Chen Tingzhi.
But on the contrary, the wind became mild, and the pouring rain as if God had vomited became soft and sparse, and the sky did not clear, but the weather improved, and it felt as if the appearance of thunder and lightning had diluted the sky's share of bad weather.
Then Chen Tingzhi felt that as soon as the wind blew, he grew up and thought clearly, as long as there were raindrops on his body, he had a feeling of satiety that would only be felt after eating and drinking, and every time lightning and thunder visited the sky, he felt that his powerful body became stronger.
In just a while, Nicholas Chan changed from a baby to a child.
"What the hell? What does that mean? β
Chen Tingzhi looked at his magical new body, a little stunned and at a loss.
The white cloud skin has the smooth matte of marble and the warm and pliable touch of the human body, and you can see the blue electricity flowing under the skin.
The hair on his body is red, and his eyes are unable to know their shape and color due to the lack of mirrors and calm water, but they must be able to see through the day in a dim rainstorm.
"Now I'm not even a human being, am I? What does this reverberation mean? Who had such an outrageous dream? Is this a thirst for power? Or is it a desire for chaos? β
Chen Tingyi wrapped the animal skin swaddling clothes around his waist, looked up and looked around, and then saw a huge tree with a diameter as thick as a wall and towering into the sky in the distance, and almost shocked his jaw.
Before he coarsely surrounded himself with the only fabric that could be used as clothes, Chen Tingzhi, who had grown tall and strong in the wind, rain, thunder and lightning, decided to go to the giant tree to have a look, maybe he could find the owner of this remnant, or at least figure out the main plot here.
However, it can be clearly seen that it is the rough form of a giant tree wider than the city wall, which also shows how far Chen Tingzhi is from the terrifying tree that rises from the sky, and it is not a joke to look at the mountain and run a dead horse.
Fortunately, the raindrops in the sky will not be hungry when they are drenched on the body, and the thunder and lightning can eliminate all fatigue once, saving Chen Tingzhi a lot of effort, at least he doesn't need to waste time looking for food, and then waste time looking for a clean and dry place to cook, and finally waste a lot of time to find a place to rest.
Chen Tingzhi, who has now become a non-human, just walks straight in that direction.
Along the way, Chen Tingzhi saw many deformed and grotesque creatures.
A white-bearded giant with dark blue skin and a cuticle, spitting frost and cold air from his mouth, Nicholas Chen's height was only as high as his calves.
The ugly giant wrapped in cold air wielded a large stick made of ice, driving away a pack of giant wolves with blue fur like a shepherd.
The green-haired giant wolf is twice as tall as Chen Tingzhi, who has only grown to the size of a teenager now, and the spine on his back is dislocated and bulging hideously as if he is growing too vigorously, even if he just looks at it from a distance, Chen Tingzhi can feel how big and strong the vertebrae of these green-haired giant wolves are under the fur.
The ugly giant was condescending and had a wide field of vision, and he had seen him earlier before the little Chen Tingzhi found him, but he had no interest in communicating with Chen Tingzhi, whether it was fighting or language entanglement, and even used ice sticks to hammer back a few giant wolves who smelled the smell from Chen Tingzhi and were restless.
Walking through the footprints of giants and giant wolves, Chen Tingzhi found a few wolf skins that I don't know whether they were discarded or dropped by giants, but they could just take one as a jacket and wrap it around their bodies.
Then they saw a group of screeching aspen trees, waving leafy, rain-soaked branches pointing at each other, and the harsh grinding sound of a knife cutting through glass was characteristic of their language.
Chen Tingzhi stopped, carefully looked at the scale of the poplar forest that made an unappetizing disgusting sound, and decided that it was better to take a long detour and pass by the side, otherwise he would be killed by the arguments of these trees.
"Crunchβ"
But this group of poplars who didn't have long eyes or ears somehow found Chen Tingzhi standing on the hill in the distance, and "waved his hand to say hello" to him in unison, as if to beckon him over, and their movements and voices were as neat as if they had been rehearsed.
Chen Tingzhi also found it interesting, smiled, waved his hand, and walked in that direction.
At this moment, these poplars were quiet, not noisy or noisy, and even the wind and rain did not make the sound of "rustling" leaves rubbing and "da-da-da" rain hitting the leaves, as if they were looking at Chen Tingzhi, the new guest, with full attention.
Straight through the poplar forest, Chen Tingzhi patted on every tree he passed, as a polite greeting and farewell to the hospitable guys who didn't speak the same language as himself.
The asppen tree that has been slapped will also shake its trunk and branches with a "clatter", but it will have little effect except to sprinkle the rainwater accumulated on the leaves all over Chen Tingzhi's body.
When he walked out of the poplar forest, a poplar tree once again made a sharp sound, which made Chen Tingzhi so frightened that he felt a thrill all over his body.
"What's wrong?" Chen Tingzhi turned around and saw what the situation was.
Then I saw these poplars weaving a pair of straw sandals and handing them over, which made Chen Tingzhi drop his eyes in shock.
It seems that the wisdom of these guys is really not low.
Chen Tingzhi took the straw sandals and put them on, left a wolf skin on his body, and solemnly thanked the poplar forest, and then waved away.
Poplar Lin also didn't say a word, silently watching Chen Tingzhi's back go away, and then they began to whisper between themselves, and then unconsciously gradually developed into a quarrel.
Then Chen Tingzhi saw a dragon flapping its wings and cutting through the sky.
Chen Tingzhi, who had grown into a young man, was steady in the waves set off by the dragon's wings, he raised a hand to block his forehead and eyes, and squinted slightly at the dragon flying towards him.
The giant dragon like a hoarfrost sculpture smashed to the ground like a comet, its cyan flesh wings flapped twice and retracted, it leaned down towards Chen Tingzhi, its golden pupils overflowing with curiosity.
"Is there something wrong?"
For the inexplicable attitude of others, Chen Tingzhi is not the slightest strange, the indifference of the ugly giant at the beginning, the hospitality of the poplar wood, and the curiosity of the white dragon now, which only adds to his strangeness about the new body he is using now, as well as the strangeness of this remnant world.
And from the bright golden pupils of this giant dragon, Chen Tingzhi saw his appearance clearly for the first time, his long red hair was messy and uninhibited even in the rainstorm, the muscles of his body were well-proportioned and powerful, and the lines were smooth, coupled with his resolute face and sharpening and axe facial features, making him seem to be a beautiful man who came out of Hong Kong comics.
The skin on his body became thicker, and Chen Tingzhi could no longer see the currents flowing in his body through it, but he could still feel them surging with his pulse.
The dragon spread its clenched claws and threw the two majestic goats to Chen Tingzhi, then turned and flew away.
"Bring me food? Or is it the ticket money after seeing the exotic animals? Chen Tingzhi looked at the two goats bleating, pulled the corners of his mouth, and reached out to touch their wet heads and horns.
"Boom ......"
For the first time, a huge bolt of lightning fell from the sky and landed on a rock not far from Chen Tingzhi, blasting it open and staining the land black.
Nicholas Chen's eyes looked directly at the lightning that seemed to be dazzling, and he clearly saw through the images under these bright lights, a piece of brass was refined by lightning, melted at high temperatures, and then quenched in the rainstorm after the lightning disappeared.
"Coincidence? Or was it a pure accident? β
Chen Tingzhi looked at the brass plate, as well as the two tall goats beside him who were grazing with their heads down, and decided to ignore this problem and put a goat cart on himself.
