Chapter 3 Population Explosion
Time passes.
In the blink of an eye, Xie Shen stayed in this prison called ‘Tower’ for nearly three years.
As a reincarnated power in the Nascent Soul stage, Xie Shen considers himself to be very patient.
In the past three years, he has been looking for opportunities almost every moment, just to escape to the outside of the 'tower'.
However, let alone the 'tower', he has never been able to leave even the alloy room he is currently in.
No other.
Only because during the period when Xie Shen was imprisoned, no changes occurred in the 'Tower' from beginning to end.
No prisoners rioted.
No one from the outside comes to visit the prison.
Even the management staff in the 'Tower' have never had contact with Xie Shen and Deng Bin.
The door to the alloy room has not been opened at all in the past three years.
This is simply an unsolvable situation
In addition to waiting for an opportunity to escape, Xie Shen also used various side tapping to get some useful information from Deng Bin.
The first thing that can be determined is that this is indeed the earth.
In other words, after Xie Shen traveled to the world of cultivation, he returned to the earth from the world of cultivation because of the 'Resurrection Technique'.
Xie Shen traveled through time in 2025 AD.
That is when he was 26 years old.
According to Dun Bin: Humans on earth discovered a spell called 'Resurrection' in 2030 AD.
In the beginning, this technique was only mastered by the governments of various countries, and was only used to resurrect great men and scientists who had made great achievements in human history.
As a result, human technology has developed by leaps and bounds in those few years.
But soon, the ‘Resurrection Technique’ began to be abused.
First, various important figures in the business and political circles, and then the middle class in society. Until the insurance company launched the 'resurrection insurance' business, promising that users who purchase this insurance can be resurrected after death. The whole world began to go into complete chaos.
At this point, the earth's population began to grow at an incredible rate, and by 2133 AD it was approaching the 50 billion mark.
The increase in population has led to wars, famines and riots gradually sweeping across the world.
In order to end this chaos, the heads of various countries gathered together and signed the famous '33 Convention' at the end of 2133.
This convention stipulates that no one is allowed to have offspring, and reproductive behavior is considered illegal.
The maximum penalty is the death penalty.
Also.
Once a person dies, he must wait 50 years before he can be resurrected by the 'Resurrection Technique'.
In this way, the skyrocketing population on the earth has finally been contained to a certain extent.
According to Dun Bin, he died in an accident not long after the signing of the '33 Convention'.
So according to the newly revised law, he cannot be resurrected immediately after death.
I don’t know how many years passed like this.
When Deng Bin finally waited until he was resurrected by the 'Resurrection Technique', he found that he had somehow arrived in this prison called the 'Tower'.
As for what happened to mankind after signing the '33 Convention', and how many years passed during this period, Deng Bin has no idea.
He just found out in prison that someone had been here for more than two thousand years.
In other words, this prison called ‘Tower’ has existed in the room for at least two thousand years
…
.
As usual.
After seeing the value on the electronic display gradually rising from [56%] to [90%], Deng Bin finally stopped torturing Xie Shen.
“Almost.”
Exhausted, Deng Bin collapsed on the ground. He looked at the half-dead Xie Shen and said with an envious expression: "Seriously, brother, your ability to feel no pain is really good."
"Originally, a tortured person like you would have to live a life worse than death almost every day in the 'Tower'."
"But 'death' is just a luxury wish for the tortured people."
"After all, the people in the 'Tower' will be resurrected all the time. They can't die and will never find rest."
"But you are different."
< br>Deng Bin found a comfortable position, half-lying and leaning against the wall.
He continued: "I have to torture you like this every day. You are as tired as a dog, but you are fine at all."
"Alas"
Speaking of this, Deng Bin couldn't help but He let out a long sigh.
There was a hint of tiredness in his tone: "Brother, I can't bear it anymore, I'm going to take a nap first."
At the end, he didn't forget to add: "It's still the same old rules: If the number on the screen drops to [50%] and I’m not awake yet, remember to call me.”
"Don't worry." Xie Shen, who was imprisoned on the wall by the mechanical arm, said, "You can just sleep, I will watch the screen for you."
"Good brother!"
Maybe I feel really tired.
Seeing Xie Shen's response, Deng Bin lay down on the ground with peace of mind, closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep
About three hours passed like this.
Xie Shen, who was tortured until his whole body was covered in scars, could no longer hold on because of his severe injuries.
His eyes darkened and he lost consciousness.
Not long after Xie Shen died, a burst of electronic synthesized sounds suddenly sounded from the room:
[The person who was resurrected, surname: Xie, born at 1:13 on February 23, 1999 point. 】
Soon, the geometric patterns on the floor of the room began to emit a faint light, and a black figure appeared above the geometric patterns.
The black figure turned from virtual to real, and finally gradually turned into Xie Shen's appearance.
In the room.
After resurrection, Xie Shenyu immediately looked around. He first glanced at Deng Bin in the corner.
After confirming that the other party was still asleep, he looked at the mechanical arm on the ceiling again.
After three years of observation, Xie Shen has gradually concluded the rules:
As a tortured person, every time he came back from the dead, he would be imprisoned on the wall by the mechanical arm again.
However, this process takes time.
The response of the robotic arm is not very fast.
During this period, there will be about a minute or two of free time, allowing Xie Shen to move freely.
——And this is the only opportunity he can take advantage of right now.
Before the robotic arm had time to take action, Xie Shen quickly pressed the various acupoints around his body with his fingers.
Under the stimulation of acupressure, the skin on his body began to squirm with a strange rhythm, and red mist continued to gush out.
——This acupressure method is a secret technique that Xie Shen accidentally obtained from the enemy after traveling through the world of cultivation.
This secret technique is called "Blood Burning Technique".
The practitioner can stimulate acupuncture points all over the body to burn Qi and blood in the body, thereby obtaining extremely powerful explosive power in a short period of time.
Precisely because the technique requires burning Qi and blood, red mist will continuously flow out of the user's body.
At this moment.
Under the blessing of "Blood Burning Dafa", Xie Shen felt that his whole body was filled with endless energy.
He looked towards the exit of the room, and his whole person disappeared in an instant.
The next second, a roar of gold and iron was heard. The door made of alloy in the room exploded with a punch from Xie Shen.
