Chapter 33: The Diffusion of the Million Elizabeth (1)

North, snowfields beyond the walls.

The perennial blizzard carried the biting cold wind howling across the snow-capped mountains, and a team of pilgrims of more than a dozen people struggled forward in the blizzard, holding ropes and hanging bells with each other, and then digging their canes deep into the ice and snow to fix the support, and marching towards the top of the mountain step by step against the wind that could almost blow people away.

The whole world is white, the sky is white, the earth is white, the snow is white, the mountains are white, and even the wind is white.

However, in this pure white landscape, the cliff where the girl stood became the only place with other colors.

At the summit of the mountain range at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, the temperature, air pressure and oxygen content should have been incredibly low, and it was impossible for any animals and plants to survive, but strangely enough, instead of ice and snow and ice, there was green grass and brightly colored flowers growing vigorously at her feet.

What's even more weird is that the weather and temperature around her have changed dramatically, the climate is warm, the four seasons are like spring, even if the snowflakes from the outside world fall into this green area, they will quietly melt, turning into spring rain to moisten the earth, and the cold wind will turn into a warm and pleasant spring breeze, gently blowing through the rippling grass, so that colorful flowers and butterflies dance together.

And the white-haired girl stood on the top of the snow-capped mountain, standing on the highest point in the world, her vision pierced through the layers of fog, the wind and snow fell on the pilgrims, watching them fall one after another, watching the pilgrims untie the ropes of the fallen people and leave them to fend for themselves, watching their bodies buried by the wind and snow

The white-haired girl stared at all this, as if she was a god on top, and watched indifferently as those people fell one after another, and there was no sadness or joy in her turquoise eyes, and she did not make a trace of waves from beginning to end.

The life or death of these people has nothing to do with her.

In the desert where the yellow sand is flying, there are also a group of people who are struggling to move forward.

Their eyes are deep-set, their faces are yellow and thin, they look like they haven't eaten and rested for a long time, and most of their clothes are tattered, mostly some pieces of fabric that have been put together to cover their bodies, and they look like wanderers who have lost their way in the desert.

The people in front of them shook the bell in their hands while chanting the prayer in their hearts, and used the bell and rope to guide the people behind them, and the team went all the way, but soon their footprints would be buried by the wind and sand.

The leader, who had a big beard and casually wrapped some cloth around his head and neck to shield his skin from the scorching sun and prevent his skin from getting sunburned, walked at the front of the group, and his mood was a little heavy: it was the fourteenth day since the day he fled into the desert, and although the food reserves were still sufficient, there was not much water left.

In the desert, water is much more important than food, and when there is a shortage of food, they can reduce their food intake, tighten their belts and move on, but without water, it is really difficult to move an inch.

But even then, no one dared to suggest stop&ash;&ash; they escaped from the old world towns that were gradually buried by the wind and sand, precisely to escape the pursuit of the skeletons. Decades after it became a wasteland, even a child now knows how big the tracking range of the skeleton is, and if you don't run away from them immediately, it won't be long before you will be overtaken by them.

However, the leaders also knew that it would be too difficult to cross the Western Desert with their equipment and supplies

You can't even reach the storm circle in the depths of the desert &ash;&ash; The storm circle is the symbol of the Western Desert, and according to adventurers who have returned from previous expeditions there, it is a storm wall that stretches for hundreds of kilometers and reaches into the sky at a height that is so high that the sand and dust there obscure the sky and the sun all year round, and the feeling is almost like

Night.

The leader, who had grown up in the day hemisphere, couldn't imagine what the night was like, and he sighed softly as he looked at the steaming heat of the desert, which distorted the distant scene, and folded his hands in a low prayer.

Goddess, please bless us to find an oasis for a temporary stay

In the 34th year of the new calendar, it is a series of appalling turbulent disasters

Decades have passed&ash;&ash; the old world has long since been ravaged by the catastrophe and is devastated beyond recognition. At first, it was Cordyceps disease with an unknown route of infection, then a swarm of insects that came out of science fiction fell from the sky, and finally when the skeletal army that pinned people's hopes on it also got out of control, the already precarious order finally collapsed completely.

The collapse of order is followed by chaos, turmoil, and madness.

At that time, humanity had fallen from the position of the leader of all souls, towns had fallen, technological faults had been broken, the population had shrunk dramatically, and even the basic order of the human race had lost its former advantages in the face of out-of-control skeletal legions, savage and bloody swarms, and the terrifying cordyceps disease, and could only survive in the cracks until that day.

The night hemisphere, the eternal night wasteland.

The impact of the Earth's cessation of rotation is not only that rising sea levels have submerged large areas of low-lying areas along the coast, but also that the ecology of the entire planet has changed dramatically.

The diurnal hemisphere is always bathed in sunlight, the heat can be fully utilized, and the vegetation is lush and the species is abundant.

The night hemisphere is a cold hell, the eternal night makes the temperature here drop again and again, and the plants are also frozen to death, withering, when a large number of plants die because of the environment, what follows is the mass extinction of species in the night hemisphere, and finally the night hemisphere gradually becomes a forbidden area for most life.

Today, the only people who can live on this dead tundra are a few hardy animals and plants whose gene expression has been altered by environmental changes, and humans who have survived on the science and technology of the old world.

Ah Dog was wearing a thick winter jacket and gloves, with the help of the starlight above his head and the faint light reflected by the moon, he carefully identified whether there were holes dug by small animals in this tundra, he looked very carefully, almost lying on the ground inch by inch and looking carefully.

If you can find the hole of the hidden mouse, just put the trap and see how many you can catch the next day, and take it back to open meat for your sister. But it would be even better if you found Ru's hole! Not only can he eat meat with his sister, but the offal can also be ground together with minced meat to make patties, and the bones can be shaved to make soup and then eat.

With such anticipation, Ah Dog took extra care to identify the burrows in the tundra.

But today, this silent and dark place of death has a slightly different color.

A dazzling light that made people feel the stinging pain in their eyes suddenly pierced the long night, and the light that overshadowed the galaxy and the moonlight hanging high in the sky, blooming on the eternal night wasteland like a rising star, dispelling the darkness that had shrouded the surrounding area for an unknown number of years.

Ah Gou, who was lying on the ground, was stunned for a moment when he saw this sudden light, and subconsciously glanced in the direction where the light was, and a strange thought flashed in his heart.

That's the sun? The sun is up?!

Before he could react, Ah Dog, who had lived in a dim environment for a long time and had only seen starlight, moonlight and lights since he was a child, was blind.

If people stay in a low-light or light-free environment for a long time, if the eyes are suddenly stimulated by bright light, the eyes will fall into a state of temporary blindness, and even more seriously, it will even permanently affect the vision. Ah Dog is in this state now, sour, swollen, and strong stinging pain coming from his eye sockets, and the pain makes him scream and cover his eyes and roll on the ground, and tears are pouring out of his eye sockets uncontrollably.

The sudden light startled the nocturnal animals of the wasteland, and many of the small animals that had already arrived at the entrance of the cave and were about to come out to forage for food fled back to the burrow.

Landing safely, Wu Ming appeared from the solidified light, but as soon as he walked out of the teleportation light curtain, he was shaken by the cold wind outside, and he couldn't help but gasp: It's so cold! Where am I being thrown in!?

Immediately afterwards, Elizabeth also walked out of the light, and was blown by the cold wind, and the silly girl who was wearing a short skirt and shirt in the winter with a good physique of extraordinary creatures couldn't help but shiver: Woo lur! It's so cold! I want to go home! I want to go sleep on the kotatsu!

As she spoke, she was about to shrink into the teleportation light curtain, as if she wanted to go back and forth from anywhere, but she was dragged back by Wu Ming before she could take a step.

Okay, come back for me, don't play tricks Wu Ming patted Elizabeth's head, he looked at the light curtain that did not appear out, and asked: Speaking of which, why hasn't Lao Zhao come over yet? Was she the last to enter the portal?

Hey? No, I don't. Elizabeth was asked by him, and tilted her head in confusion: After you went in, the puppet followed in? Didn't you see her?

Wu Ming was also confused, and the two looked at each other for a long time, until the screams of dogs rolling on the ground gradually weakened, and Wu Ming suddenly raised his volume.

it! Finished! Shame on you!

His first instinct was to go back to Zhao through the teleportation light curtain, but he immediately rejected the idea.

The puppet girl entered the teleportation point after him, and it stands to reason that she should have walked out of the teleportation light curtain after him, but she didn't appear here, which can only mean that the teleportation may have had an accident that caused her to fall to another place, and the only light curtain as an entrance and exit is open here, so most likely you can't find anyone when you go back to find it now

Okay, let's put the stealth detector out and open the map first Wu Ming shook his head, grabbed a stealth detector from the containment space, and after entering Zhao Xida's characteristic information, he let these little guys explore on their own.

For some reason, he remembered the director's serious expression and tone before he came up

I encountered an accident when I first arrived.,It seems that this abandoned world is really not simple.

Big Brother Big Brother

Wu Ming suddenly felt that his arm was shaken, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Elizabeth was looking at him, and couldn't help but wonder: What's wrong?

He! Elizabeth shrunk on the ground, still covering her eyes but didn't roll around anymore, big brother! He looks so pathetic, let's help him!
