Chapter 69: The City Under the Permafrost

This is supposed to be a natural cave, as there are many naturally occurring rock protrusions, and in some ravines, some guards with white hair can be faintly seen.

Aisha found genetic data on yak-like creatures in the rebel base, some of which came from yaks, which live in the snow-capped mountains of the plateau and give them strong cold tolerance.

At the same time, their hair can not only be used as a protective color, but also has a strong ability to protect against wind and warmth.

But as they went deeper, there were many traces of artificiality, and soon, they came to a junction where there were many passages, and they didn't know where they led.

The guide looked at the leader of the white-haired crowd.

"Zangzi, go and inform the leaders of the rest of the gathering area to assemble in the square, and say, I have something important to announce.

By the way, settle these friends from the Promised Land, and take a walk around this syracuse with the human body of the gods. ”

The man named Zangzi wears the same white yak hair as he does all around, and wears a bone yak mask on his head, which is what distinguishes him from the rest of the people and indicates that he is supposed to be a leader.

"Yes!" Zangzi responded.

Then, he looked at the rest of the people behind him, "Please follow me." ”

With that, he walked into the cave on the left, and Einstein and the rest of the group looked at each other before entering as well.

The cave is spacious and should have been widened on the basis of the original.

"This was originally the place where the Guides and their people lived, and then our ancestors, the first outcasts, came here and built it together with the Guides adults.

At first, it could only accommodate a few hundred people, but as we dug bigger and bigger, the hole became more and more complex, and it was easy to get lost without our guidance.

Although the wind and snow on the surface hinder human survival, it also makes the geology stronger and will not collapse because of our excavation. ”

Zangzi spoke up and began to introduce them to the underground city.

As they gradually deepened, the originally dim tunnel changed slightly, and a slight green fluorescence appeared on the surrounding dissolution walls.

The light was faint, but it provided them with a light to move forward, and when they looked closely, they saw that they were glowing unknown plants.

"These glowing things are only found here, and they're our main food, and we call them glowing rice." Zangzi introduced.

.....

"Orichalcum sent back the scan data."

Fenrir said to Charlen, "This is a fungal plant. ”

"That is, this is a mushroom?"

Xia Lian's expression was slightly exciting, looking at the green light, which looked much more energetic than the red umbrella umbrella and white pole.

"This thing.... Can you eat it? ”

"Based on the scan data, yes." "The premise is that it is cooked, and the high temperature can kill the luminescent substance, and there are mushroom polysaccharides in it, which can be regarded as a stable protein supplement pathway." ”

Xia Lian bowed, and then he continued to ask Einstein through the communication system.

"Professor, how many of them there are?"

.....

Einstein came back to his senses and asked Zangzi, "How many of you are there?" ”

Zangzi thought for a moment and replied respectfully to Einstein, "We haven't calculated the specifics, but there should be more than 10 million people." ”

Einstein raised his eyes in a little surprise, which was far more than he and Xia Lian had estimated.

"Do you live on these glowing rice?"

"Of course not, if you only eat Yingmi, you will get sick." "We also have a farm underground, and we have some tooth rats in it, and they grow very fast, and they have a lot of life, and the key is that they can be fed with glowing rice."

Glowwood grows a lot in the excrement, enough for us to eat and feed tooth rats and termites.

There are also the people of the Guide, who give us their milk and their hair as warm clothing, and they give us food from the old and sick people.

At the same time, our naturally dead people will also be given to them. ”

Albert Einstein bowed his head, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it, or rather, it was remarkable to be able to maintain such a balance in such a difficult environment.

It is a very natural and healthy cycle to raise the rest of the animals that are so important to them from the corpses that have died naturally compared to abandoning the elderly.

.....

Xia Lian in Fenrir also nodded, "There are vegetables, meat protein and milk protein supplements, those tooth rats can supplement them with trace elements, it seems that the people here are doing well." ”

"Your Highness, look."

With Elsa's voice, Xia Lian once again shifted his gaze to the screen.

Einstein was going deeper and deeper into this tunnel, and finally reached the end of the tunnel.

This underground city is gradually revealed in front of everyone.

It was an empty space with no end in sight, they should have hollowed out the entire snow-capped mountain, and the surrounding cliffs and the ground were covered with the kind of mushrooms that would glow, and the whole space was relatively bright.

Numerous wooden houses with dome are connected by wooden walkways and stairs, and people walk in them, and although life is hard, the walkways are very clean, and under the reflection of the glow, it has become a huge and prosperous underground city.

Although there are no plants in this frozen land, these people are all human beings with divine factor genes, although the amount is not as large as that of people in the Promised Land, but they have more or less a little fifth element in their bodies.

And these wooden buildings are all embodied by them with the fifth element.

Due to their constant underground presence and lack of sunlight, their skin is very pale, like that of vampires.

Some children and young people have some twisted or deformed legs and backs to a greater or lesser extent, which is rickets.

When a person is in the sun, the ultraviolet rays in the sun usually promote the body's synthesis of vitamin D by irradiating the skin, further promoting the body's absorption of calcium.

If you do not get in the sun for a long time, the calcium in the body cannot be effectively absorbed, which will cause calcium deficiency, which may lead to osteoporosis, and even rickets, osteomalacia and other conditions.

It was relatively warm, and some of the young people who didn't have those white hairs looked extremely thin, their cheeks sunken, and very weak.

It seems that even with such an abundance of recipes, the land that is too barren is still not enough to provide enough food for everyone.

These people have completely detached themselves from human appearance, and are more like legendary goblins.

But as Einstein and the rest of the scientists knew, these were human beings.

However, fate destroyed them to what they are now.

They are an experiment by the Creator, and the Creator who created them has long since died, and they have been forgotten.

But at this moment, a new creator has taken over their fate.

Xia Lian slowly got up and walked towards the portal that had been opened.

"Where are you going?" Mercury asked.

"To pick and choose the "afterlife". Xia Lian looked at Mercury and smiled, "After all, I've never liked to brag. ”
