Chapter 317: Technological Civilization
If it was an eerie ghost town, it wouldn't surprise Awakening so much, after all, in this kind of ghost place, it is not surprising to see anything.
However, the expected dark red like blood-stained city walls, dark streets, bottomless alleys with black holes, and terrifying haunted mansions did not appear. What is presented in front of the awakening is a magnificent mechanical city.
That's right, it's a mechanical city, not a city made of metal.
This mechanical city is unimaginably large, in the distance I thought it was an immortal magic mountain located here, mixed with a little brown and red brass is the main color of the mechanical city, houses, streets and other buildings, all radiate the old metallic luster, and the thick metal surface precipitates the traces of time.
A ten-lane road "flows" quietly under the feet of Su Xing and the eldest lady, leading straight into the distance. The sidewalks on both sides of the road are also 100 meters wide, and there are various public facilities displayed along the streets, many of which are unbelievable, and only the street lamps and vending machines can be identified by awakening.
Su Xing looked up, his pupils suddenly contracted, revealing an exaggerated look.
At that glance, you can't see the end of the city at all, as if you are at the bottom of a valley, surrounded by tall mountains, and the steep mountain walls are towering into the sky, and you can't see the sky at all.
The surrounding metal buildings were like pillar after column of peaks, towering straight into the sky, at least hundreds of stories high, into the thin gray mist above.
And the space between the tall buildings, this mechanical giant does not seem to be wasted. The "air roads" are like spider webs, shrouded in the city, and like intertwined old tree roots, rooted in the city.
"Is that the 'air route' of hovercars?" wakes up and whispers, and some imaginations of future cities in the world come to mind, with high-rise buildings hundreds of meters tall at every turn, cities with no sky in sight, and criss-crossing roads. Doesn't that fit those sci-fi settings?
Will such a developed mechanical city go to ruin?
There is more and more fog, and the awakened head is a little too much to count, and his vision is dull and becomes ineffective.
"But I don't see any cars, hovering cars, planes, where are the means of transportation in this city?" said to himself, looking left and right, and the shock in his heart calmed down slightly.
He walked to an automatic kiosk on the side of the road, hoping to get some answers, at least a glimpse of the lives of the ancestors in ancient times. Diet and so on.
"Wait for me!" the eldest lady hurriedly woke up in the gray haze that dissipated in a panic.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Su Xing glanced back coldly, and when he saw the broken chain on the eldest lady's chest, he suddenly understood something.
"Hmph, I won't protect you even if you follow!" Su Xing dropped a sentence and walked to the vending machine on his own.
"This should be a vending machine" When I woke up and really saw the "vending machine" on the side of the road, I couldn't help but wonder, because the vending machine in front of me was a little different from the one in real life.
Su Xing's eyes flashed, and when he raised the black knife in his hand and was about to cut down. There was a click, and the "road" under his feet suddenly moved.
“?!”
Su Xing and the eldest lady glanced at each other and exchanged surprised eyes.
Thundered!
After the click, it was as if one gear had driven all the gears. The entire mechanical city wakes up from its slumber and rumbles.
For a while, all the roads were running like conveyor tracks, and Wake and Miss stood on the road tracks. "Sightseeing" along the way to the sight of the mechanical city.
A squeaky sour sound suddenly sounded, and the towering high-rise buildings also moved, and the whole was slowly rotating!
"Ah!" the eldest lady screamed. Involuntarily hugged the awakening. She had never seen such a scene, and of course she was frightened.
Even the shock of awakening, it is difficult to imagine and describe the scene on the spot, they are as small as an ant, looking up at the operation of the huge city!
"Maybe it's adjusting the angle to take in the sun," Wake inferred.
Of course, there are other possibilities, and it is difficult to deduce the truth of the mechanical maze without being in the environment at the time.
But what really shocked the awakening was the significance of the appearance of the mechanical maze itself!
"Could it be that there was a highly developed scientific and technological civilization in ancient times? How is it possible, iron plough and ox ploughing only appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period at the earliest, how can it be even older!" Su Xing exclaimed, shouting for a while, and doubting for a while, and the whole person fell into contradictions.
But no matter how he guessed, the mechanical maze was in front of him, and he couldn't believe it.
"Yes, this is a period of antiquity that I don't know if the Tao is 'desolate' or 'ancient', even if there was a highly developed scientific and technological civilization, and then it is not surprising that it was annihilated in the long river of time!"
After all, according to Darwin's theory of evolution, this explosive development of human beings is indeed somewhat abnormal, and there may really be a period of great civilization annihilated in the long river of history.
In this way, as a mechanical maze in the holy land of ancient times, its owner is the legendary Immortal Evil Emperor, so what kind of person is the legendary Immortal Evil Emperor, and is the immortal and immortal Taoism it has studied the achievements of science and technology?
So, is the dried corpse you saw before you wake up a product of technology, the so-called cursed land, where many strong people have died, or it may be that the technology created by the Immortal Evil Emperor has caused the Holy Land to become a dead city.
Let's say Resident Evil
The awakened brain was so whimsical that even he laughed out loud.
The time of antiquity is too long, leaving behind a technologically advanced mechanical city, which really makes people reverie and think.
"What do you know?" asked the eldest lady, curiosity killing a cat.
"What the hell is going on with this strange city, the strange fog, and the terrifying dried corpses!"
"Do I need to tell you?" said Su Xing, glancing at the eldest lady, coldly.
Anyway, what Su Xing wants to do most at the moment is to find Zi Buyu and leave.
Suddenly, a huge black shadow swept over the awakened head, startling the two of them to quickly raise their heads.
I saw a huge bone dragon slashing through the sky and flying into the distance.
"Bone Dragon?!" Wake said in a deep voice.
At this moment, the ground cracked, and a white skeleton crawled out of the ground, creaking and trembling to stand, and then marched in a line through the streets.
“”
"Why are even skeleton soldiers coming out!Is this a ghost town or a mechanical maze!" Awakening's jaw almost dropped, and the undead were often seen in the mechanical city full of technology, which made people nervous a little unbearable.
"Ah!" the eldest lady suddenly screamed.
"What's wrong?" he woke up and was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned pale, and the gray fog that had dissipated gathered again.
Wait, wait!
Awakening's eyes flickered rapidly, and he realized that the fog just now would dissipate.
Wait, there must be a reason to fix it!
The awakened brain spun rapidly, recalling the scene just now when the fog had dissipated.
Why the mist dissipated was originally the first consideration that should be considered when awakening, but because of the shock of the mechanical maze, he left the reason for the dissipation of the haze behind.
"I should be able to do it too, because there is a familiar feeling of the great day rising at that moment, there is, it should be"
Su woke up and was stunned for a moment, and suddenly looked at the eldest lady.
"By the way, it's the breath of the innate fire spirit!" Su Xing smiled in surprise.
The surrounding gray haze quickly converged, and the surrounding mechanical maze scene continued to regress, and with the encirclement of the mist, there was a cold and gloomy aura surrounding it, and the danger was constantly approaching!
"It's, it's coming!" The eldest lady's delicate face showed a frightened look, as if sensing that something was approaching in the gray mist, that is, the "it" in the eldest lady's mouth!
"It?!" Su Xing glanced at the eldest lady seriously, in fact, in that moment, he had the idea of pushing the eldest lady into the mist and leaving her to fend for herself.
However, this idea was only fleeting, and it did not really come true.
"Innate Fire Essence!" Wake up and take out a ball of Innate Fire Essence, the soft light suddenly spreads, and the fog that was originally approaching like an avalanche suddenly stopped, and froze around.
"Roar~~~!"
An eerie roar came from the mist, and the wind howled.
"It turns out that the innate fire essence can restrain the weird fog?!" the eldest lady's eyes flashed, and then she caught the awakening, and said pitifully, "Is there more, are there more innate fire essences?"
"Hmph!" Su Xing snorted coldly, and suddenly put away the ball of innate fire essence in his hand.
As soon as the innate fire essence disappeared, the surrounding mist quickly approached.
"Ah, don't, don't, hurry up and take out the innate fire essence!" the eldest lady screamed in panic.
Wake stood still, silent, surrounded by gray mist. The black armor on his body is shiny, and the sword behind him is cold, and he is not afraid of anything at all.
But the eldest lady can't, her identity is mysterious, it seems that there is something wrong with herself, and the last of the last ghost treasure has been awakened and cut down, and there is no means to protect herself in the gray haze at all.
She still vaguely remembered that her guards mysteriously disappeared in the gray mist, and then the claws of Usensen continued to attack her.
At the moment when the gray mist completely enveloped her, a soft light rose again, and the eldest lady gritted her teeth and took out a ball of innate fire essence.
"Isn't there more innate fire essence in this way?" Su Xing said indifferently, and after the innate fire essence in the eldest lady's hand dispelled the gray mist around her, she snatched her innate fire essence with one hand.
"You!" the eldest lady was startled, and then her eyes woke up.
I saw that Su Xing looked as usual, holding the eldest lady's innate fire essence.
"You, you, scum, shameless, how did I meet such a shameless man as you!" the eldest lady scolded angrily with sparkling tears in her bright eyes. (To be continued......)
