Chapter Twenty-Three: Return to Earth
The morning stars are sparse, a light veil-like mist shrouds the city, and on the horizon in the distance, a red light gradually floats in the sky, and the city is still brightly lit, and the brilliant neon lights are constantly flickering, as if to declare that this is a city that never sleeps.
It's just that at this time, the city that never sleeps seems to be empty, and on the extremely neat roads, cool flying cars are parked scattered, but they are empty, and they seem extremely quiet, like a dead city.
"I'm not dead, haha, I'm not dead!" A surprised voice broke the silence of the city, and in the shelter, the people who had originally fainted on the ground woke up one after another, looked at the familiar surroundings, and cheered, hugging their loved ones around them and crying with joy, and the city became noisy again.
"I want to ask if you have had a strange dream. A weak voice sounded, but it seemed to have a huge magical power, and the originally noisy crowd fell silent in an instant, and the shelter was quiet again.
"It's as if I dreamed that I lived in a strange forest for three days and was killed by a ferocious beast. The weak voice sounded again.
"I dreamed of it too, but I was poisoned by a snake after living there for a day. Another voice rang out.
"It wasn't a dream, I lived there for seven days, met a lot of people, practiced exercises, and was finally killed by a fierce beast, I'm sure it wasn't a dream. A voice of some fear rang out.
......
The shelter became noisy again, and people were discussing their experiences in their dreams, and at this time, some people found that they actually had a ball of light in their arms, and when they opened the light group, they found that it was actually the weapon they had obtained in their dreams.
At this time, people also completely confirmed that they were not dreaming, but lived in another real world for a while, but they seemed to live in the jungle for different times, but strangely woke up at the same time, and many of them lived there for more than a day, but the strange thing is that less than half an hour has passed on earth.
It's just that the last memory of all of them is death, and this also terrifies the people of the Vault, they all died once, and they were resurrected on Earth, what is hidden behind all of this.
"DingโThe aura is revived, the wilderness is coming, brave humans, please take up the weapons in your hands, use the inheritance in your mind to resist danger, and build a fairy city in the wilderness. โ
"Ding-wilderness invasion, the city will gradually be eroded by the wilderness, and some technology will disappear, countdown: 3 days at 16:32. โ
Two prompts sounded in the minds of everyone in the world, and at this time, some people also noticed that there was an extra memory in their minds, which was the inheritance mentioned by the system.
It's just that most people's inheritance is mortal, and only a very small number of people are at the spirit level, but there are also some people who have not even obtained the inheritance, after statistical research, people found that most of the people who have not obtained the inheritance have not lived in the trial jungle for three days, and those who have survived for fifteen days will get the spirit level inheritance.
Outside the shelter, a ray of sunlight pierced the darkness, dawn came, humans walked out of the shelter and entered the city, and at this time humans also found that the outside of the city has been occupied by a wilderness full of dense plants, although the current season is a cold winter wax moon, but the plants are still growing wildly, eroding towards the city.
At this time, governments also convened emergency meetings, and at the same time issued orders for cities to completely quit smoking and enter wartime military administration, and most of the people who were at a loss were confined to their homes.
.........
"Knock-knock-" There was a sharp knock on the door.
Meng Yi, who heard the knock on the door, was a little puzzled, not long after accepting the inheritance, he fainted, and when he woke up, he found himself on the rooftop, and then received a prompt from the flood system.
However, he didn't pay attention to it when he knew everything, and returned to his rental house to study his inheritance and the changes in the saplings, and just now he received a martial law reminder from the government.
Now that the whole city is under martial law, who will come to him at this time, Meng Yi got up and opened the door, but as soon as he opened the door, a shadow rushed towards him.
Looking at Su Xue, who was hugging him tightly, Meng Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, he should have guessed it a long time ago, reached out and hugged Su Xue into his arms, smelled the faint fragrance of the girl in his arms, and quietly enjoyed this rare quiet moment.
From the moment Su Xue used his life to stop the giant elephant with tusks for him, he knew that he would not be able to escape this fate in this life, this girl had been completely integrated into his life, and it was worth his everything to protect.
"Ahem. "A lifetime of coughing breaks the silence.
"You little couple are affectionate, and you can't hang the old man at the door!" Su Lao's ridiculous voice came.
Su Xue heard her grandfather's ridicule, and hurriedly pushed Meng Yi away in a panic, and said to Su Lao with a flushed face, "Grandpa, what do you say?"
"Big brother, Ling'er also wants to hug, you hug your sister!" Ling'er came in from the door.
Looking at Ling'er who was stretching out his little hand towards him, Meng Yi smiled and shook his head, then picked up Ling'er, looked at Su Lao and said, "Su Lao, why are you here, isn't it martial law in the whole city now." โ
"Haha, some people say that they are afraid that something will happen to you, so they have to come and see, it just so happens that I also have some things to discuss with you, as for martial law, the old man still has some energy, and the army can't stop me. Su Lao said with a smile, but his eyes looked at Su Xue.
"Hmph, grandpa. Su Xue blushed and stomped her foot.
"Okay, don't laugh, Xiaoyi, what do you think of the prompt when we return to Earth?" Su Lao's face became serious.
"After staying in the Trials Jungle for so long, you still don't understand the capabilities of the Flood System, no matter what she wants to do, humans have no ability to resist, and at least for now, the Flood System is friendly to humans, although the means are a little unfriendly. Meng Yi responded.
"Hehe, too, I used to think that human beings have advanced science and technology, and they also ruled the earth, and they were strong enough, but now I know how weak human beings are, and in the face of the flood system, the technology we are proud of does not even have the slightest effect. Su Lao smiled bitterly.
He has a special identity, so he knows that since the human race returned to the earth, all the satellites and all kinds of probes have been mobilized, and the countries have worked together to almost turn the entire earth over, and there is no trace of the flood system, as if she does not exist at all.
"No matter how powerful science and technology are, it is also an external force, and only the strength of human beings itself is the most reliable force, which may be what the flood system wants to tell us, we can only resist everything if we work hard to cultivate and strengthen ourselves in the future. Meng Yi couldn't help but think of his previous life.
After the human beings in the previous life entered the Flood Continent, there were still some human beings who insisted on developing science and technology, intending to use science and technology to resist fierce beasts.
It's just that as the fierce beasts encountered became more and more powerful, those humans who insisted on using technology and neglected their own strength, in the face of powerful beasts, were killed without even having a chance to use technology, and the humans at that time realized that only working hard to improve their strength was the right way.
