Chapter 92 Stories about this world
So how did he die? Xu Xin did not ask this question.
"How do you want to cooperate?"
Since we need to find a survivor to cooperate, he must be able to do things that these stone statues cannot.
"Let's sit down and talk about cooperation. You can come to our room." The female stone statue said.
Xu Xin would not follow them so stupidly. He raised the spear in his hand, faced the two stone statues, and said coldly: "Just say it here."
"You have no choice."
The long imprint of the male stone statue suddenly stamped its foot, and the ground began to tremble instantly.
Then, with a "bang" sound, two stone walls at least ten centimeters thick emerged from the ground in front of and behind Xu Xin, and hit the stone ceiling of the corridor with a "clang" sound, trapping him directly. in this small space.
Even the spear in his hand was stuck diagonally between the two walls.
This stone statue actually has such ability!
Xu Xin immediately drew out his iron sword and slashed directly at the stone wall. Stone chips flew into the air, leaving several deep marks. But the stone wall was very thick, and these few centimeters of traces were of no use. Instead, the two walls were getting closer and closer, as if they were squeezing him inside.
"I advise you not to talk to her like that, otherwise I will kill you directly even if you wait another twelve years." Changyin's voice became colder and came from the other side of the wall.
Damn, he is still a crazy wife protector.
But what does twelve years...mean? What he meant seemed to be that if he killed himself, he would have to wait another twelve years?
Xu Xin felt relieved a little. At present, the two gargoyles would not attack him for the time being.
Xu Xin heard the dissuasive voice of the female stone statue outside the stone wall.
The two walls slowly lowered and sank into the ground again. The ground returned to flatness, and it was completely impossible to tell that these two locations had ever pushed up two stone walls.
At this time, Changyin returned to his lazy smile: "Well, I am very strong, so I have no need to lie to you. If I really wanted to kill you, I would have done it long ago."
Xu Xin took a deep breath, smiled, stretched out her hand and said: "Don't you want to discuss cooperation with me? Lead the way."
Let's do what they want first. Now he doesn't have the ability to fall out with the two stone statues in front of him.
The two stone statues asked Xu Xin for a small windmill and handed it to the little boy. They asked him to go back to the room to play by himself. They took Xu Xin to the first room, which was the room where Chang Yin wrote.
The wooden chair and table were almost rotten. Changyin swept them aside and stamped his foot. A square stone table and three stone piers rose up in the room.
"Just sit like this for now. It's been twelve years, and this place is almost in ruins." Changyin took the lead and sat down on the stone pier. The stone butt made a "click" sound with the stone pier, but the female stone statue was He was gentler and gently sat next to Changyin.
Xu Xin's stone pier was opposite the two of them. He glanced at the stone pier and finally sat down.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Changyin, and this is my wife, Xuelan." Changyin said.
The two of them looked like Orientals, but I didn't expect that even their names were Chinese.
"...My name is Xu Xin. How do you want to cooperate with me?" Their strength was so strong that Xu Xin could not imagine what he could do to help them.
"First of all, we want you to take us out of this underground city. We have stayed here long enough and want to see the sun." The male stone statue looked up and said with some melancholy.
"Take you out of here? Do you want to go to the ground?" Xu Xin was a little confused. Don't they live in this underground city? Isn't this where the experiment is being carried out?
"That's right. This year is the forty-ninth year that we have been trapped underground."
Trapped...underground?
Then, the stone statue called Changyin told him a story.
Forty-nine years ago, there was a prosperous world. According to Changyin's description, the technological level of this world was almost the same as that of Earth.
But a catastrophe changed everything.
The unknown red light shone like sunlight on half of the planet. Although it only lasted for five minutes, it caused great changes in the creatures in half of the world.
Whether it was land animals, plants, or creatures in the ocean, they all became extremely large and deformed. At the same time, they lost their will and began to fight each other just relying on their aggressive instincts.
The other half that was not exposed to the red light still had half of the human race surviving, and began to resist tenaciously with its own technology.
It started with an attack by mutated marine creatures.
Marine life is very mobile. Before humans could react, countless mutant sea creatures landed from the coast and began to massacre all living creatures.
A sea turtle as big as a house, a giant octopus that only appears in movies, a giant shell that can bite a human into two pieces, and giant killer whales swimming around in the ocean. They are vulnerable to all kinds of behemoths in the ocean. Even if they use the strongest weapons, they still have little effect. There are too many mutated creatures in the sea.
Humanity has lost all control of the sea.
After paying a heavy price, humans finally drove most of the landed marine mutant creatures back into the sea to protect their land territory.
But then, as if they had received an order, the mutated birds and mosquitoes flew collectively across the entire hemisphere and launched an attack on human cities.
Mutated birds and mosquitoes are actually not very powerful individually. They are much smaller than mutated marine creatures. After all, they cannot fly if they are too big.
But the dense and overwhelming numbers are simply unstoppable. In a city with a large population, weapons of mass destruction cannot be used. If only one or two cities are attacked, it may be possible to abandon the vehicle to save the troops, but there are too many cities under attack. In the end, humans had no choice but to hide collectively in underground bomb shelters.
When humans appeared on the ground again, everything had been razed to the ground. Before humans could even think about rebuilding their homes, the mutant beasts on the land arrived.
Countless giant beasts rushed into the human habitat, as if entering a cafeteria.
However, it is not the giant beasts that cause the greatest harm to humans, but the giant...human beings. Those giant mutant humans are invulnerable, and even have a little bit of wisdom left. They specialize in picking out crowded places to attack, and even destroy weapons bases and air-raid shelters.
Humanity once again used the strongest weapons, but it still had too good an effect. There were too many mutated beasts and it was impossible to kill them all. In the end, there was no suspense, and it ended with humankind's complete failure.
Changyin and Xuelan's family are the few surviving humans, and they can only choose to live underground.
They didn't tell Xu Xin the rest of the story. They didn't tell Xu Xin how they became what they were now. They just told him that they wanted to return to the ground where they once lived.
"As a sign of sincerity for cooperation, I tell you the truth that I know. We were once human beings just like you, so you don't need to be too hostile to us." Finally, Chang Yin concluded in one sentence.
Xu Xin was a little silent. Although he felt that the other party did not need to deceive him, he still had reservations.
In the story of Chang Yin, those huge mutated monsters were mutated by light on the ground and occupied the land and sea, but Xu Xin discovered them underground, and they were basically ordinary beasts on the ground.
There are only three huge monsters that have been seen on the ground, the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake, the giant crocodile at the bottom of the stream, and the blood-striped troll. None of them will attack him, and they all have their own consciousness. The trolls will Communicating with gestures, the giant crocodile even has a lot of goodwill towards itself.
The giant anaconda and the giant crocodile do not have blood streaks on their bodies, but the trolls have the same blood streaks as the mutated beasts.
However, the monsters Xu Xin saw underground seemed to have really lost their minds and were constantly fighting each other.
Also... this world is too similar to their earth. If what he said is true, it makes Xu Xin not only doubt the connection between the two worlds.
At present, except for the huge monsters underground, all the creatures on the ground have the same species on the earth, but are slightly larger. Even the stone statue in front of him speaks the same language as him. (End of chapter)
