Chapter 553 Survivors from thirty years ago
"However, you don't have to worry too much." The woman's tense face relaxed again, and she smiled, "Everyone here has been baptized, but so far, I have not heard of anyone being turned into an overgrown man. Fluffy monster, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
"That's it..." Shi Wanyun breathed a sigh of relief.
But she still felt slightly uncomfortable.
The so-called "master" who relies on restricting people here in this way is definitely not an easy person to get along with.
"So, now you can tell me, how did you get here?"
Shi Wanyun hesitated for a moment and finally decided to tell the truth.
But that's only half the truth.
"That's it..."
She told the woman in front of her everything about her experience since she was forced to be transported here.
"In fact, I am no match for those advanced mutant creatures outside. You can also see this. I can come here only by a little bit of luck and the support of the strongest being among our group of survivors. My help.”
"Oh? The strongest survivor?" The woman was a little interested, "In my opinion, your strength is not weak anymore. If you were among the previous batches of survivors, you would most likely be the strongest existence. .”
"...I don't know about you survivors in the previous batches, but among my batch of survivors, there are indeed many people who are stronger than me." Shi Wanyun sighed, "If it weren't for the healing medicine they gave me, There’s no way I can make it here.”
"Healing medicine?" The woman was startled for a moment, and then she thought of something. She touched her waist with her hand, and after a flash of purple-black light, a backpack appeared in her hand, and she handed it to her, "Your things."< br>
"...Have you seen the contents of the backpack?" Shi Wanyun took the backpack and asked softly.
"Well, it's not just me. No. 228 who brought you here also checked it immediately." The woman said, "But I didn't find any medicine that can heal the injury."
"Of course, because I have used up all of it." Shi Wanyun explained softly, "I suffered three fatal injuries at the hands of those advanced mutant creatures. Without the healing drugs they provided me, I would not have been able to enter here. .”
"So that's it..." the woman nodded, "This can explain why someone with your strength can pass through the area below. Although your strength is very strong among the survivors at the same stage, it is not as strong as the one below. Those mutated creatures are still much worse. I didn’t expect that among your group of survivors, there are people who are proficient in medical treatment..."
The woman frowned slightly: "The fatal injury...can it be cured by taking healing medicine?"
"Well, I don't understand the principle, but as long as you take the pills, your body's injuries will recover quickly." Shi Wanyun explained, "It is indeed a miracle medicine. I also managed to get a few pills, but unfortunately I have used them all. .”
"Is this really something that survivors can make?" The woman was surprised, "You group of survivors are beyond my imagination."
"...I want to ask, where are my previous clothes?" Shi Wanyun tugged on the clothes he was wearing at this time, "When I came up, my clothes had already been changed."
When she came up, she was wearing a one-piece skirt that reached to her ankles. She wore that one piece all over her body.
So during the previous baptism, No. 228 only made a slight movement on her back, and her dress immediately slipped off.
But now, the clothes on her body are much more normal. Although it feels empty inside, at least they are covered up and down.
But this was not her original outfit.
When she came here, she was wearing the purple-level steel armor that Xu Xin gave her.
There is also the most important piece of equipment: the cloak of the Invisible.
Without that piece of equipment, it would have been impossible for her to pass through the terrifying area below and get here.
Although this place may not be any more normal than down there...
"Ah, your clothes, those purple-level armors and equipment?"
Speaking of her armor equipment, the woman sighed, "Your equipment is what surprises me the most. You guys shouldn't have been here for a long time, right? You actually already have purple-level metal armor, and Still made of steel.”
"Where is that set of armor now?" Shi Wanyun asked.
"What? Do you still want it? It's already in tatters, what else do you need it for?"
"...That's purple-level armor." Shi Wanyun said softly.
Besides, it’s not too broken, right? Although there are a few scars, it can still be used as long as it is repaired.
The woman smiled and shook her head: "There is no need to be so frugal. Although purple-level armor is indeed rare for you, it is not a scarce thing for us here. You can have it if you want it, of course. , provided you can prove your worth.”
Shi Wanyun raised his eyes slightly.
Is there no shortage of purple-level resources here?
Yes, the people here are all the survivors of the first few batches, all of them are people who have made it to the end and have survived in this world for more than ten or even decades. Purple-level armor and weapons may be of use to them. It’s really nothing.
For them, the purple-grade steel armor they are wearing may only be regarded as an ordinary piece of worn-out armor that anyone can afford.
Therefore, when No. 228 took off the armor for her, he didn't care about anything. He just felt that the clothes were dirty and torn, so he quickly changed into something new. He couldn't let her go to the baptism in the tattered clothes.
But...
Haven't they seen that special thing...
"Then, my equipment is now..."
"When I went there just now, it was still there at No. 228." The woman said, "It was dirty, covered with blood and dust. I didn't take it with me. Let her deal with it. Maybe she has already dealt with it."
"Processing means..."
"Metal armors are melted back into the furnace, while leather armors are destroyed directly. The most indispensable thing we lack is animal skins."
This...
Shi Wanyun's heart tugged slightly.
That was a purple-level armor that she had never seen before. She had begged for it for a long time with shame, and she had to give it back, so it was just disposed of like this?
Moreover, the special function of the cloak of the Invisible...
Wasn't it really discovered?
"What, is there anything special about those equipment? Ah, I understand." The woman smiled slightly, "Is it the first set of purple-level armor that you spent all your resources on? That does have some commemorative value. Wait a minute. You can ask No. 228, maybe she hasn’t processed it yet.”
"I'm still wearing a cloak..." Shi Wanyun hesitated and asked, "Excuse me, is that cloak still there?"
"That cloak with several holes? It's already damaged. It's just a green-level cloak. Is it important?" the woman asked.
Green level?
Shi Wanyun's heart moved.
Because the damage was too serious, it lost its original capabilities and its level dropped to green level?
From this point of view, the other party did not see the function of the cloak of the invisible one.
"Those equipments were lent to me by the strongest among our group of survivors." Shi Wanyun explained in a soft voice, "I will return it to him later, so..."
"That's right, ah, could it be said..." the woman smiled, "The strongest person who has given you so much help...is a man?"
"...It's not what you think." Shi Wanyun knew what the woman wanted to say and denied it softly.
"I haven't said anything yet." The woman teased slightly.
...Everyone can see what you mean.
"So, although that cloak is only a green level, because it was the first piece of equipment the other party gave you, you have been wearing it, is that right?" the woman speculated.
The other party actually gave her a good excuse.
She had no intention of telling this woman the function of the Invisible Cloak.
Although she wanted to believe this woman, she had to be cautious.
The special healing medicine she obtained from Xu Xin, Qi Xuefei of Explorer, was sold on the World Channel. This was not a secret.
They have also displayed purple-level armor on the trading platform, so it is not a secret.
It doesn't matter if she says this, because Xu Xin's explorer doesn't want to hide it.
But she couldn't tell anyone about the function of the Invisible's cloak.
Before Xu Xin took out this thing to help her, they had never displayed this equipment to the outside world. This should be regarded as Xu Xin's secret equipment.
Xu Xin saved her life and was her benefactor. She could not tell anyone else about it.
Not even the survivors from previous generations, not even the seemingly trustworthy woman in front of him.
That's what she had just been thinking, a half-truth.
She wasn't lying, she was just hiding something.
Neither side is offended, this is the best option.
"...No." Shi Wanyun tilted his head slightly and said softly, "It's just that I have to return what he gave me, even if it's a piece of green-level equipment."
However, her current appearance, to a woman, looks like a cute girl who still speaks harshly after being exposed.
The woman's eyes looked at her a little softer. She really saw herself in Shi Wanyun fifty years ago: "In that case, I understand your situation almost. You can go back first. You will be here for the time being." Stay in the room where you woke up first. I will ask No. 228 to find you and help you get familiar with this place."
"Hmm...?" Shi Wanyun was a little surprised, "Don't you need me to do anything now?"
"No need for the moment. You just had a baptism today and we won't let you do anything else. Just take a good rest first. You won't be so relaxed tomorrow." The woman said, a red light suddenly flashed in her eyes.
"Can you tell me what I will do tomorrow?" Shi Wanyun is still confused.
"It depends on the master's wishes. The tasks for the new batch of survivors are not assigned by me, but by the master. I will take you to see him tomorrow."
Master...
"I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you. You should go back and rest quickly. You can rest in this room if you want, but this is a prison cell and it won't be very comfortable."
With that said, she immediately turned around and walked out of the house, without even giving Shi Wanyun a chance to ask again.
The door was not closed, but half open.
Shi Wanyun walked to the door and looked out.
Another corridor.
The difference from the previous one is that this corridor is not a wooden corridor, but a pure metal corridor. The cold-toned metallic luster looks cold.
There are also some closed metal doors on both sides of the corridor. It is obvious that they are prisons.
She looked back at the metal bed that had just restrained her and made her weak, and shook her head, not intending to stay here any longer.
It feels a little uncomfortable here. The blood streaks on the bed are strange. Let's go back to that room first.
She opened the door and walked out.
There is no road at the left end of the corridor, but you can see the wooden passage at the end from the other side.
It should be over there.
Shi Wanyun walked that way.
Along the way, the prison doors on both sides were either open or closed.
There was no one in the open prison. Some prisons were similar to hers, with only a metal bed, and some prisons had some torture instruments that made her feel creepy.
There's even blood stains on it!
There are always people in closed prisons.
The prison doors were not soundproof, and Shi Wanyun could hear faint moans and even some miserable screams from almost every closed prison door.
This made her quicken her pace and leave the area quickly.
...Although this place is full of survivors like her, she now feels that there is a sense of disharmony everywhere, and she always feels that this place is not a suitable place for survival...
Have these survivors from other areas really lived here for more than ten or even decades?
In other words, since these previous batches of survivors have been here for decades, they should have left the earth decades ago, right?
She is no longer of the same generation.
The woman just now might be from her grandmother's generation.
"Ah, you are here!"
At this time, she heard a familiar voice.
Turning around, he saw the face of No. 228.
"The supervisor came to me specifically and asked me to take charge of your daily life. It seems that she values you very much!" No. 228 was a little excited. "It seems that you are really strong. Don't forget that it was me who brought you along in the future. Here!”
"Should I go back to the previous room now?"
"No, no, no, no, why are you still living in a shabby room like that?" No. 228 shook her head, almost shaking her head off. "You can sleep over at my place. Hey, my status here is pretty good." Yes, the place I live in is big enough for several people, and it’s much better than the room you just slept in.”
"Thank you then." Shi Wanyun was just thinking about chatting more with No. 228. It would be much more convenient to live with her.
"Let's go."
No. 228 took her towards her room.
"By the way, um..." Shi Wanyun didn't know how to address her.
"Just call me No. 228. Your name... I won't ask. I won't need it in the future anyway."
"...Doesn't your supervisor have a name too?"
"No one has a name. My supervisor, she is number 5. She is very close to the front. She sounds very powerful!"
"No. 5..."
Shi Wanyun was a little surprised. No. 5 was too far forward. It seemed like she was really a veteran here.
She asked again: "No. 228, how long have you been here?"
"It's been twenty or thirty years, right? I can't remember." No. 228 recalled, and then argued, "But I am not an old woman. Everyone who comes here can live forever, and I am still very young!"
"Then when you were on earth, which era were you from? When I left earth, it was 202x." Shi Wanyun asked her doubts.
"202x year? Oh my god, is it already that late!" No. 228 exclaimed, "202x year! It feels like the future! When I left, a certain big country had just disintegrated!"
...199x?
He was really from thirty years ago!
It would be false to say that she is not surprised. After all, the person who lived more than thirty years ago was older than her mother...
As a result, the girl in front of me looks about the same age as her...
This feeling is really strange.
……
"Wait!"
Xu Xin suddenly interrupted Shi Wanyun, his expression was a little strange.
"You just said that the time when the first few batches of survivors lived was in the past, in 199x?"
"In the past...? What is this? They left the earth and came here decades ago." Shi Wanyun was confused by Xu Xin's question.
Shi Wanyun didn't understand what Xu Xin said. After all, Xu Xin had not told her the truth about this world. In her mind, this was just a special different world.
Xu Xin frowned directly.
His thinking was a little confused.
Aren’t the survivors the same people who lived on the eve of the alien invaders’ arrival?
Aren't they all people from that time who were sent to the future, but they were sent in batches, so they arrived at different times?
As a result...the first few batches of survivors were really people from the past? !
"Eh..."
Xu Xin suddenly thought of something he discovered when he first came to this world.
At that time, he climbed down for a long time and came to a subway room, and in that room, he found a skeleton.
On the back of the skull, there were some Greek words carved in it that he couldn't understand.
The production date of the eaten compressed biscuits in the skull package can prove that he is from 198x!
He almost forgot about it!
There is also the issue that he has been wondering about, the inexplicably large number of survivors...
This...
What happened to the survivors who came to this world one after another? (End of chapter)
