Chapter 1684 A Staggered World
"Style 617.89 million - Kabuto!"
"ah--!"
Accompanied by a scream, the last poacher's head spun and landed on the sand. ?? W=W=W≤. ≤81ZW. COM
"Hmph, this is the consequence of killing me!" Bilu turned the blade and put it back into the scabbard hanging at his waist. "I wonder if the boss is among them..."
Ten poachers fell scattered around Bilu. The reason why they fell was simple, because Lin secretly rescued Bilu before, and then Bilu chopped them all down.
Because the distance was very close at the time, these poachers had no chance to fight back and were easily eliminated by Bilu.
What Lin is more concerned about is the reason why these poachers are here. According to their memories, they ran away from the base. They originally wanted to go back by playing games, but for some reason... they lost their way.
Finally, we came to the vicinity of the "Fog Lake". After seeing the spies and Bilu arriving in a RV, they wanted to snatch the RV.
It's quite strange that they can get lost and travel so far away, because the base is hundreds of kilometers away from here.
There is a large desert in the middle, so it is difficult to get lost from there to this place. This group of poachers came here in a state of confusion.
"Help—!" Suddenly, Lin heard a voice.
"What? Someone is shouting!" Because of the sudden sound, Bilu immediately drew out his knife and ran in that direction.
"Classmate Veronica, there is an idiot here who looks like the aborigine just now!" Bilu yelled from behind a tree. After the spy walked over, Lin also saw someone wearing white clothes and a headscarf. The Ershi people are under the tree.
It was tied to the trunk of this dead tree. Bilu pointed a knife at it and said, "Are you with the group of poachers just now?"
This Ershimin didn't seem to understand Bilu's language, and just looked at Bilu's knife in horror.
"Speak, you idiot. I'm very impatient because of the heat. When I get impatient, I want to find something to chop..."
"Wait a minute." The spy stopped Bilu who was wielding a knife, and said to Ershimin in the language of a country: "Origin.
"
"Ah?" This Ershimin obviously understood, so it asked: "Where does it come from?"
"Your origin."
"Come..." After it was stunned for a while, it reacted and then said something about it. It was indeed the... aborigine who lived here.
It does not speak the current 'official language' of Ersh, it only speaks the language of a country. It also means that other residents living here can only speak this language.
It came here to get some wood, but was discovered by poachers and was later caught. The poachers tied it under this tree.
Then, the spy continued to ask it more things, such as the history of the indigenous people.
"History? We have always lived in this place..." The aborigines told the spy that there was something interesting about them.
It said that its ancestors said that they originally lived in a bustling city. The spy asked him to describe the city in detail, and Lin found that the city should be the buildings half buried in the desert before.
They use all kinds of electrical appliances that are now obsolete, but of course they were not obsolete at that time...
At some time in the past, a severe drought suddenly occurred around the world. Various water sources dried up one after another, and there was no more rain from the sky. The sun was always shining in the sky.
Finally, the original land began to rapidly become desertified, everything dried up, and the entire city became a city buried in the desert. They believed that the entire world was already in the doomsday of drought.
Only a small group of residents survived because the city originally had underground water reserves that could last for a long time.
They have lived on this water for generations, but when they saw that the water source was getting less and less, they realized that this was a problem, and then made a decision to leave the city to find water sources.
So the ancestors of the Ershi people left the city and traveled in the vast desert. In the end, they found water.
It's this place... called 'Fog Lake'.
It is said that Wuhu Lake was originally a quite large lake, perhaps several kilometers in diameter. Originally, this lake did not exist in or near the city. It seems that the lake suddenly appeared after the world's drought.
There is a dense jungle growing around Wuhu Lake. The ancestors of the Ershi people were very excited after arriving here. They thought they could live here forever and revive... civilization.
But they scrapped the idea after a sandstorm turned the foggy lake into a sandy lake.
The surrounding plants also dried up quickly, and finally they had to leave here and find other places to live...
In the end, they didn't find any large water source, but they still survived because they acquired a plant when they lived near Fog Lake.
This plant, commonly known as 'dew vine', collects moisture from the air and stores it in a sac-like organ.
Relying on this plant, they live a very difficult life. Although they can survive, it is difficult to increase the number of groups.
However, recently they are planning to build a machine that can collect more water...
"This is really fun!" The spy also translated these contents for Bilu while listening. Bilu said excitedly: "It...means that its ancestors encountered a worldwide drought? This place is indeed the legendary place. Doomsday space! Doomsday parallel world!"
"...?" The aborigine looked at Bilu with confusion.
This thing... is indeed quite strange. After Lin asked for some more details, she discovered that the ancestors of this aboriginal people... they lived on Ershi.
Their previous history can be said to be exactly the same as the current history of Ershi, whether it is historical events or anything else.
The difference is that it started with a drought. A worldwide drought occurred in this place. Since then, the sun has not set in the sky, and the entire world's civilization has been destroyed.
But civilization continues to develop in Ersh outside, and only a few residents are left to survive in the drought.
It seems that two lines that were originally together were separated due to the drought, and coupled with Shirahoshi's memory...
Lin thought this might be a special experiment by Ersh...?
"You said, there is also... a prosperous Ershi?" The natives also looked incredulous after hearing what the spy said.
"This is impossible! This world should be completely covered by desert! We still have some news from the past..."
