Chapter 124
At this critical juncture of life and death, Zhuang Jiu finally regained control of the vines and quickly controlled the vines. After turning into a huge spring under her feet, she suddenly used strength to shoot her body towards the sky. Go up -
risky and dangerous to avoid the rampage of the mammoth, avoid the possibility of turning her into a puddle of flesh.
While his body was stagnant in the air, Zhuang Jiu quickly took out the half-mecha he was carrying, immediately turned it on and dressed neatly, and stopped firmly in the air.
Werther immediately flew over and helped Zhuang Jiu to stabilize his figure: "Sister, are you okay? Can the vines be stable?"
Zhuang Jiu shook his head with some doubts, looking at the huge body that had stopped below, he planned to turn around. He turned around and was about to rush towards the mammoth, and said, "We'll talk about the vines later. Let's take the others and leave this place quickly!"
Zhuang Jiu's control of the vines only lasted for a few seconds. , and soon it was out of control again. When Zhuang Jiu was flying in the air, she kept rushing out of her skin, fluttering her teeth and claws in the air, like a mutant creature that had no consciousness after seeing an apple. After Zhuang Jiu tried to communicate with the vine several times to no avail, she could only let it continue to do so, just to keep other unrelated people away from her to prevent unnecessary attacks. In the air, a few people quickly got rid of the mammoth behind them with speed. When a few people escaped, they still ran in the direction specified by Wang Zai. If it weren't for the fact that the sky had turned dark, I am afraid that several people would continue to move towards the depths of the ruins. Darkness means more dangers will occur. Several people stopped before the sunset, found a bunker, and began to sort out a relatively safe resting place, planning to spend the night that may be dangerous. The place where they are now happens to be in the shape of a room that is somewhat desolate, but has not completely collapsed. Perhaps because it is right in the middle of the ruins, there are not many animals moving here, so there are quite a few complete houses nearby.
In addition to the rooms, there are many round arched buildings that wrap the area. These buildings are quite towering, if not collapsed, it is estimated to be quite spectacular.
However, the hustle and bustle dissipated, even if there were more splendors, now it is just a history that no one cares about.
Werther simply tidied up the room where they were going to rest tonight.
Zhuang Jiu lives in a room alone, Wang Zai and Gan Jinxing live in a room, and Dr. Cui and Liu Yun share a room.
Werther can now do half his brain work and half his brain rest, so he's in charge of the vigil.
During this period of time, after Gan Jinxing joined the experimental base, in addition to continuing to study what works on zombie cells, these researchers also began to tinker with supernatural-related objects every day. For example, the previous tracking instruments, as well as some things related to space abilities, have corresponding research.
At this moment, the things created by the use of space abilities are of great use.
Gan Jinxing took out what looked like a small portal from Liu Yun, and after standing on the ground, some strange "things" spit out in a short while.
For example, small folding beds, quilts, folding chairs, folding tables, etc., if it is not because there is no way to connect to the water source, or even the bathtub can be directly moved out, it can be regarded as a good helper for traveling.
It was not the first time that Zhuang Jiu had seen this kind of thing, so he just glanced at it lightly, and continued to wait outside with little interest.
The vines are still unable to communicate, and have been showing their teeth and claws behind her. She is now like a big spider with six green feet behind her, and her strange shape is a little scary.
She didn't have anything to do here for the time being, and Zhuang Jiu couldn't help. After thinking for a few minutes, she controlled the half-mecha and flew to the top of a stone pillar nearly 100 meters high.
- This is the only intact stone pillar nearby.
She was in a hurry when she was on her way, so even though Zhuang Jiu had a vague sense of familiarity with the buildings under her feet, she didn't have so much energy to think about other things. But now that she calmed down and watched, she realized that what she saw was a completely different building from a modern city.
Zhuang Jiu searched his memory for a long time before finally matching this scene with the architectural style of an ancient country in the history books.
Even if it collapses, it cannot hide the luxurious and magnificent buildings, and the houses built of thick enough bricks cannot be easily breached.
Symbol of ancient roman architecture.
"These things can be taken back when you get up tomorrow, and you can continue to take them on the road, which is quite convenient." Gan Jinxing withdrew his gaze and said lightly, "Of course, this thing is not perfect, if it is real The space ability user may be able to carry more things."
Although his words were so, it was enough to make others stunned.
Dr. Cui couldn't help but stunned: "My God, Professor Gan is indeed a scientific researcher, and his brain is easy to use! I can only think of letting these supernatural powers deliver things for us, but I never thought that these supernormal powers could actually work. Make use of it!"
According to the words in the game, Dr. Cui is just an auxiliary nurse, who came to help increase the health bar.
He doesn't know anything about other things, and naturally he doesn't know. Not only can some objects be stored using space abilities, but even the path that they have been following with Wang Zi is also something that Gan Jinxing used to make. The route was found later.
Gan Jinxing smiled lightly, then said a few more words and walked out of the room, leaving others to clean up inside.
It didn't take long for Zhuang Jiu's ears to hear a cracking sound, and there was another person beside him.
A slightly low voice came: "It seems that Lord Star God doesn't seem to be interested in these things at all?"
Zhuang Jiu looked into the distance, hummed casually, and continued: "Stay away from me, the vines are uncertain. will attack you."
Gan Jinxing smiled: "Master Star God, are you caring about me?"
Without waiting for Zhuangjiu's answer, he said to himself: "This batch of buildings originated in ancient Rome, that is, from 2200 to 3400 on the planet. Between years. Judging from the color of the limestone and volcanic ash under the feet of Lord Star God, these buildings were built around that time."
"But such an ancient building should not have appeared in the ancient city of Wan 500 years ago. Although there are not many records, the ancient city of Wan 500 years ago is just a fake ancient city that uses antique buildings to attract tourists." Zhuang Jiu noticed that, at some point, the manic vines on her body had stopped. She quickly took it back into her body and continued to ask, "So?" Gan Jinxing didn't dislike the dust on the stone pillar. "So, this is not the ancient city of Wan, or it has been replaced by another place, and the original ancient city of Wan has disappeared." "According to the unofficial history and some legends, except for the earliest disappearance of Atlantis In addition, during the existence of ancient Rome, a city named Praretia also disappeared overnight, but not many books recorded this event." "Although some people noticed this at the time . The disappearance of the city, but that time happened to be a period of war, so many people just thought that everyone in the city was slaughtered. Although some people in later generations noticed it, they thought it was because the memory of the people at that time was confused." "I don't think so. I think so. Praretia is the second Atlantis, I think." Suddenly, a hand with joints appeared in front of him, holding a strange stone like a fossil. Zhuang Jiu took the stone that Gan Jinxing handed her, and after looking over and over for a few times, he suddenly realized something, and his eyes froze. "This is... coral?"
"I just found it outside the room. After I saw it, I brought it to you." Gan Jinxing nodded: "The surrounding area is covered with resin. Coincidentally, there is a collapsed cypress tree beside this house. "
Following the direction Gan Jinxing's fingers pointed, Zhuang Jiu saw the collapsed tree.
Even at such a long distance, Zhuang Jiu can still clearly see where the big tree and the ground are connected, and there is still a lot of resin flowing down and solidifying.
"The resin wraps the coral, which proves that the city has been submerged by sea water before, so there is coral!" Zhuang Jiu immediately wanted to go down to see if there were other similar things in other places, but he suddenly put a stick on his wrist. Cool palm. As soon as the temperature was touched, Gan Jinxing withdrew his hand while saying sorry: "Lord Star God may not feel anything, but after I came in, I felt a faint discomfort of being watched, so we still try to minimize talking and looking for related people. Things are better." Zhuang Jiu: "...?" "Then why didn't you expect to be heard when you told me so many things?" Gan Jinxing paused, then said that she was right and made sense. Didn't even think about it. The two stared at each other for a long time, before Zhuang Jiu broke the embarrassment: "It doesn't matter, as long as we stay in this place, whatever we do may be discovered by that creature. Maybe we will end up with it in the end. As for the face-to-face, it's okay for us to collect relevant things in advance." The two men said, and controlled the half-mecha to come down. Werther was still packing things up diligently, and when he saw Zhuang Jiu was about to go out to say something, he saw a disturbing person following her, so after calling out to her sister, his men kept saying, Continue to clean up the house. Instead, Gan Jinxing and him looked at each other with a strange look in their eyes, and then followed Zhuang Jiu with a flashlight, exploring the buildings next to them in the dimly lit ruins.
All buildings are blue-grey. At first, Zhuang Jiu thought that the wall was this color. After the reminder from Gan Jinxing on the stone pillar, he scraped the wall with a knife.
The very obvious blue-gray layer was scraped inward with a knife for about a centimeter, and it gradually showed the color of khaki and brick red, which should be the original color of the wall. After Zhuangjiu picked up the scraped thing and scanned it for Werther, she came up with an answer she expected.
"Sister, these substances are the shape of the seaweed after drying up and drying in the wind and the sun. It seems to be at least 100 years old."
As soon as this conclusion came out, Zhuang Jiu immediately nodded.
This proves that the city was still submerged by sea water at least 100 years ago.
Even just above the stone pillars, there are substances of this color, which proves that the sea water is not over the top.
At least 100 meters high.
At such a height, it has not been able to rush through this place and flow to other cities.
Zhuang Jiu and Gan Jinxing looked at each other.
If it weren't for the barrier blocking the flow of water, there's only one possibility left.
This city should not have appeared in this place.
It may indeed have sunk to the bottom of the sea, as Gan Jinxing had guessed.
The author has something to say:
ps: In addition to the familiar place names, the name of this city is made up by me~
I’d better keep it private~ pps: QvQ I know I owe two updates~ I will make it up as soon as possible in the next few days of! Thank you for your understanding baby! (Although I'm going to drive again soon hahaha)
