Chapter 849: Voice From the Void

For a long time, Zhu Huan was wondering what happened.

Why didn't the Far-reaching Flying Boat come to pick him up?

Did something happen on the way, deviate from the route, or some other emergency?

After a month of overdue, Zhu Huan was basically sure.

[Goddess of the Road] must have encountered an air crash, causing no one to know that she was stranded here.

Only in this case would the Far-reaching Flying Boat lose contact.

Zhu Huan began to work hard to survive.

There is a temporary camp in the experimental field, where a miniature magic well is built and fixed, and the magic well is connected to the camp hut composed of elemental crystals.

In this hut, the magic energy brought by the magic well can slowly condense water elements and fire elements, thereby generating water, which is completely enough for Zhu Huan alone, whether drinking water or heating.

Food is the biggest dilemma.

The dry food stored in the camp is only enough for one person for half a year at most.

You have to race against time.

In addition to the magic well, there is also a Lianyi Station in the camp hut. It is a special ring structure fixed in the crystal structure, which can contact the Lianyi Station on the flying boat outside.

Every day, Zhu Huan would install the Wind Mother on the Lianyi Station and shout for help.

"This is the camp hut of the [Goddess of the Road]. I am Zhu Huan, an agronomist. I have lost contact with the flying boat. Please answer if you hear me."

"This is the [Goddess of the Road]. Requesting help, requesting help."

...

On the seventh day, a vague voice came from the Wind Mother.

Zhu Huan excitedly ran back to the hut from the barnyard grass farm and headed straight for the Lianyi Station.

There was much less interference and noise here.

The voice in the Wind Mother said: "I... here... flying boat..."

The voice repeated several times in a row.

Zhu Huan was dumbfounded.

Isn't this what he said when he asked for help? How come these voices came back?

He tried for two months in a row.

The final result proved the bad guess in his mind: the Lianyi Station was faulty and could not transmit the sound to the outside world. It could only circulate repeatedly inside and then return to the Wind Mother.

His cry for help was locked in this world.

Zhu Huan didn't know how to repair the Lianyi Station at all, and he was helpless.

He was not discouraged and thought of another way.

Build statues.

Build statues of Yao and Fahai!

Pray to the gods, maybe you can get a response from the gods!

He prayed to the statues day and night.

"Great Lord Yao, I pray to you here, I hope you can hear my prayers..."

"Selfless Lord Fahai, I pray to you, pray that you can look at where I am..."

But no matter which god you pray to, it's like mud into the sea.

You have to find a way to survive first.

So Zhu Huan put on his work clothes and further checked the fragments of this world. He had been here once before, but such world fragments could change at any time due to impact or turbulence.

The area of ​​the entire small world is about 5 tea ridges, and the terrain is flat. There are periodic monsoons here, the air is dry and cold, and sometimes there will be local dust storms, or small meteorites falling from the sky, which have little effect on the gravel barnyard grass.

Zhu Huan took out all the barnyard grass seeds for planting. This is the only emergency food he can rely on in the future.

He accumulated the water condensed by the magic well to provide moisture for the barnyard grass.

Although this plant can grow without water, a water environment will make them grow faster and better. These are the experiences he gained from growing in the experimental field.

Zhu Huan evenly sprinkled the omnipotent stone crushed in the field to fertilize the soil.

Then he evenly sprinkled the secret formula he tried, the tea dregs powder, in the planting area - the supplies that can be carried on the flying boat are limited, and drinking is prohibited. Everyone will bring tea cakes up, and then use the water condensed by the water element to heat and make tea. This is the standard configuration on the long-distance flying boat.

Tea dregs are usually discharged directly as garbage, but Zhu Huan collects them all because they are very useful fertilizers.

Under his careful care, barnyard grass grows wildly all over the world. They cover most areas, and even the dry yellow leaves are more lively than the bare ground.

Zhu Huan harvested the food he planted in his hometown - the seeds of barnyard grass spikes.

These grass seeds are hard and difficult to digest, so they need to be ground into powder before they can be kneaded into dough. The taste is like dry sandpaper, and there is a sour taste. This is the result after many generations of improvement.

Although the food is unpalatable, it can barely fill the stomach and reduce the rapid consumption of dry food.

Zhu Huan just felt that he was getting weaker and weaker.

This weakness came from the inside out. The loneliness and despair on the island, coupled with the influence of long-term regular turbulence, made him often have hallucinations and auditory hallucinations.

He always heard some strange sounds in his ears, and it was difficult to concentrate.

Zhu Huan tried to talk to himself, write a diary, sing to himself, and cheer himself up.

All his efforts failed in the face of illness.

Zhu Huan had persistent abdominal pain and diarrhea, weakness and pain all over his body, and bleeding in his mouth.

He knew that this was because he ate too much grass seed powder. The particles were still hard and would still hurt his stomach and intestines. Coupled with the lack of fruits and vegetables, he was now like the early sailors trapped in the sea, and began to show symptoms of sepsis.

Zhu Huan used quick-acting heart-saving pills, anesthetic juice, blood-replenishing pills and other drugs to save himself, but in March of the second year after losing contact with the outside world, he still felt that he was dying.

Before he died, he experienced a moment of last glimmer of light.

In the last moments of his life, Zhu Huan tried his best to record everything that happened here in a notebook and put it in a box. Then he dug a pit and lay down exhausted.

Death seemed like a moment, but also like many years had passed.

He felt that there was a force pulling and pulling him, wanting to take him to where the dead should go. That force had a strong attraction, like a bowl of hot meat and rice placed in front of a hungry person.

But Zhu Huan did not leave.

There were still some forces and voices trying to keep him.

Zhu Huan didn't know whether it was his own thoughts, an illusion, or someone really calling his name.

He couldn't tell.

Later he found out that it was the UFOs.

They chirped and kept calling him, which became an opportunity for the ghosts to stay.

...

Zhu Huan stood beside his corpse in work clothes, looking at himself lying in the pit, thinking that it was not bad to be a ghost.

At least he didn't have to become a slave to hunger.

After confirming his situation, Zhu Huan continued his unfinished business.

He checked the camp hut. Although he didn't know how many years had passed, everything was still working.

That's fine.

Zhu Huan put on his work clothes and started to tinker with the gravel and barnyard grass.

More and more UFOs were born.

After landing, the UFOs began to take root and sprout, turning into silent plants and giving birth to new UFOs. These lives are short, but they maintain an active vitality. When floating, they try to fly higher and farther, and when they fall into the soil, they try to grow.

One day, Zhu Huan found a strange UFO.

It emits a faint white light, like a firefly, flying in the air for half a month without falling.

After asking, he learned that this UFO accidentally fell into a magic well and was blown around by magic energy. After being blown out again, its whole body was baptized and transformed by strange power, becoming much stronger than its peers.

Zhu Huan immediately started the experiment.

He sent many UFOs into the magic well, but most of them failed to fly out and returned from the other side in the form of ash residue.

A very small number of UFOs survived tenaciously in the magic well. They became stronger and lived longer. After landing, they grew taller and denser.

Zhu Huan focused on cultivating and strengthening UFOs.

After continuous improvement for the 22nd generation, the first UFO with special abilities was born.

It mutated the characteristic of [flying].

UFOs with flying abilities gradually replaced the old UFOs. They soared and danced all over the world, had a longer life span, and were more respectful and fanatical about the gods who gave them powerful power.

This gave Zhu Huan an idea.

Why not try to enlighten their wisdom?

He began to tell the UFOs stories and epics of the Yao civilization every day, telling these flying little creatures that it was their future goal and direction.

In the process, the UFOs also challenged the journey to the magic well one after another.

What they lack the least is numbers, and they are not afraid of death - it is very strange to talk about this.

The fewer the number of UFOs, the more timid they are, and the more the number, the braver they are.

It seems that everyone can cheer each other up and increase their courage.

Flying has changed the way of survival of the gravel barnyard grass. They gradually learned to absorb more wind elements and gravel in the wind in the air to grow and become stronger, and completely transformed into floating flying creatures.

The UFOs also learned to connect and entwine with each other using roots and stems, forming a kind of community-like collective.

They combined with each other to form straw men who imitate Zhu Huan, floating and walking in the air for a long time like sky lanterns.

The barnyard grass in the body of the UFO will continue to wither, but new UFOs will be added to grow barnyard grass, so that the body of the collective can maintain a wide shape and powerful combination for a long time.

This reminds Zhu Huan of the bone barnyard giant in the Resurrection Kingdom, but that is a combination of the white bone ancestors and the barnyard grass monsters. In essence, the white bone ancestors use the barnyard grass monsters as an extension of their power.

But the UFOs are different. This is a kind of evolution and racial change of their own. They have completely united their strengths, and their intelligence level has also grown rapidly with the successive generations.

Zhu Huan named them UFO Straw Men.

The Straw Men made pilgrimages and worshipped the Crystal House, and revered Zhu Huan as the God of UFOs and their ancestor.

They believed that they were the descendants of the God of UFOs.

In fact, this group of people was originally the life that grew and mutated from Zhu Huan's corpse.

They spread the good name and creation myth of the God of UFOs, believing that they had obtained the power bestowed by the gods, and they were very confident and bold in trying to fly to the outside void and start a journey of external exploration.

Although they took off again and again, they eventually turned into piles of grass falling from the sky in the turbulence outside. But they still went forward one after another, and regrouped again to attack the outside.

Watching the birth and succession of generations of UFOs, Zhu Huan had a wonderful feeling. Although he knew that it was very likely that he would not be able to obtain the ability of [Break the Boundary] just by relying on this method of continuous rushing.

But let them be, just enjoy them.

He thought of his parents who were far away on the island.

This is probably how his parents felt when they looked at him.

He just wanted to live happily.

It is better to teach a man how to fish than to give him a fish.

Zhu Huan began to further help the UFO people, teaching them the theoretical knowledge and basic usage of magic wells, as well as everything he knew about agriculture, theology and astronomy.

Ufos are developing at an unprecedented speed. They can already talk to Zhu Huan, put forward unique insights, and are full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge about the entire world.

But they always maintained awe and respect for Zhu Huan. When they were next to Zhu Huan, the grass people always knelt on the ground, imitating Zhu Huan's posture of worshiping the statue of Yao.

"Thank you, God of UFO, for your divine enlightenment and protection for us."

"Thank you for your powerful wisdom!"

"Praise be to your good name and your nobility, you are our only creator."

…

Under their worship and prayer, Zhu Huan felt that he had gained some kind of magical power... It was as if some invisible heat had entered his ghost body through the Ufos.

One day, a distant and unfamiliar voice came from his head.

[Children in a faraway land, are you ready to take charge of the power of gods? 】

[If you are ready, then respond to me and accept the power of my godhead. 】

The sound was seductive.

But it is definitely not the will of God Yao.

Zhu Huan was extremely vigilant.

I don’t know which demon or evil god in the void is bewitching me.

The Yao people are very familiar with these tricks of the devil.

There are no traps dropped from the sky for no reason.

Still calling yourself a child?

How can there be any reason to just leave the child outside and want to be a cheap parent when you see the child has achieved results?

The only parents Zhu Huan recognized were Zhou Dao's parents, and they never left him.

The only god worthy of following is Yao God - Yao God even disclosed to all Yao people how to become a god.

No matter who they are, as long as they have made enough contributions to the Yao civilization, they can obtain godhead like the King of Light, Dragon of the Dark Sun, Pinkman, and Fa Hai, and become gods step by step.

Zhu Huan continued to teach the UFOs, allowing them to further transform the world and develop their own potential and intelligence.

He was waiting for a UFO man to fly out of this world, fly to the island surrounding Yunzhong Temple, and take him back to his hometown of Chaling.

Zhu Huan wanted to show his parents that he had raised interesting children.
