Chapter 119 Destruction and Hope

For Li Ge, there are some bottom lines that cannot be crossed.

Such as cannibalism.

Empathy and compassion for similar beings are advanced emotions developed by living things, and they are the inevitable emotional basis for the common progress of the entire ethnic group.

Once human beings lose this kind of emotion, they will inevitably degenerate from higher creatures to lower creatures.

At least this is true from an emotional or cognitive perspective.

This is a kind of degradation and a retrograde movement of life.

"In this era when all living things are seeking to evolve, the only result of degradation is destruction!"

Li Ge looked at the cruel scene in front of him with extremely cold eyes.

——If it is said that your degradation is driven by me.

——Then, let me personally carry out your destruction.

…

The fire was completely extinguished, and above, fresh air was once again flooding in.

Lie Ditan and his group slowly stood up from the ground, looking up at the light coming from above.

"We survived..."

Lie Ditan murmured to himself.

However, in order to survive, they paid a huge price.

——They lost their conscience and their humanity.

Even if they can return to the sun, this experience will be etched in their souls forever.

In the future, they will either completely abandon their humanity, or they will bury this period of time deep in their hearts, but both will become scars that cannot be erased.

At this moment, they did not realize this, they were just immersed in the joy of rebirth.

"Come on, get back to the ground!"

Everyone greeted each other and climbed up.

At this time, the only woman also looked happy.

Seeing the hope of life, this woman had already left behind her companions who had turned into bones.

at this time……

"It's stuck... it's stuck..."

The ground trembled slightly, and gravel continued to fall from above.

"what happened?"

Lie Ditan raised his head and looked upward, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.

"Could it be..."

The feeling of the ground shaking became more and more obvious.

Accompanying the shaking of the ground was a more violent rock collapse and the closing of the narrow gap above.

"No! No! No!"

"Come on! You're better off crawling!"

Everyone looked frightened and frantically urged those in front to crawl faster.

However, the rocks falling from above forced the people in front to protect their heads with their hands, greatly affecting their crawling speed.

"ah!"

A scream!

It turned out that the person in front was hit on the head by falling gravel.

Blood gushes out, blurring the vision of those in front.

Those in front climbed more slowly.

However, the speed at which the gap closes does not depend on human will, but has a tendency to become faster and faster.

The constantly clinging rock wall is like a juicer, and humans in it are like those fragile fruits.

Accompanied by sharp and pitiful screams, the stone wall closed.

Several humans disappeared underground without a sound.

They tried their best to survive until the eve of dawn at the expense of trampling on the lives of their own kind, betraying their consciences, and transforming into beasts.

However, it eventually turned into soil before being reborn.

Perhaps, tens of millions of years later, their bones will turn into imprints on the earth, reappear in the sky by accident, and be mounted in exquisite transparent boxes by unknown creatures, and use them to see through millions of people. years ago today.

….

Although there are historical samples tens of millions of years later, the historical process is still going on today.

Those who decide history will ultimately be those who survive.

"Is there light ahead..."

In the darkness underground, a childish voice sounded.

There was too much uncertainty in this voice.

Aguzhe and the people behind him were all in a mess.

Everyone was staring at the glimmer of light in front of them, with a look of confusion on their faces, as if they were waking up from a dream.

They walked in the darkness for an unknown amount of time.

It felt like I had been living in darkness for a lifetime.

During this period, they were always on tenterhooks.

Because, not long after entering this corridor, they realized something.

——Underground, there are not only humans who come to take refuge, but also all kinds of beasts.

Like humans, they are also fighting and groping in the dark, looking for a way to survive.

There are good and bad aspects to this situation.

Compared to the empty underground, they can at least get food by hunting.

However, beasts' senses are much sharper than humans, especially in the dark.

Humans can be hunters, but they can also become prey.

This journey is probably due to extra luck...

No one has ever encountered an extremely ferocious beast.

In addition, a mother and her son were accompanied by an old Tibetan Mastiff.

Although the Tibetan Mastiff is old and bald, the ability to hunt is already in its blood.

Along the way, relying on this beast's elusive appearance in the dark, it brought a lot of food to this group of people, and also noticed many dangers in advance.

There were no surprises along the way.

In this regard, Li Ge's mysterious smile hides his merit and fame.

…

"Go and see!"

Aguzhe also gave the order, with uncontrollable joy in his voice.

The group of people climbed up and down the corridor with difficulty.

The moment they stepped out of the cave, the winter sun shone on them, making them particularly dazzling.

Being without light for a long time makes their eyes extremely fragile.

The group of people blocked the sun with their hands and squinted their eyes, trying to adapt to the current environment and observe the surrounding scenes.

It is a wilderness untouched by fire.

Everyone cheered loudly.

They are celebrating new life.

Even now, they are homeless and empty.

But as long as you are alive, there is hope.

Aguzhe was also the first to calm down.

He looked around and could vaguely see the villages in the distance.

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me!"

"I know, everyone is happy when they escape death!"

"But the crisis is far from over!"

"It's winter now, and we need food for the next few days."

"I see there seems to be a village ahead. We can choose to go there and have a look to see if we can ask for shelter or borrow some food."

"What do you think?"

…

If you rush to ask for help, you may be in danger.

As people in this country, especially the people at the bottom of this country, each of them is familiar with the survival creed.

This country is a mess.

The villages that appear on the grassland are likely to be ordinary families, or they may be gathering places for mercenaries.

On the grassland, if you see a village, it is best not to go there rashly unless you know the details.

However, they had no choice at this time.

After some discussion, the group decided to send two people to investigate. If they could return successfully, everyone would go in batches.

…

At the same time, in a luxurious old house in Qingzhou.

"break!"

Sheng Liru shouted, waved her right hand, and threw out the talisman in her hand.

The fluttering piece of paper, in a gesture that completely violated the principles of physics, made a sharp scream in the air.

Halfway through, it turned into a ball of flame.

After hitting the old door panel, it exploded.

At that moment, a shrill wail seemed to come from the old door panel.

After a while, the black and red mist dispersed, as if he was annoyed.

The black and red objects show their teeth and claws, which is frightening to look at.

The people behind Sheng Liru were all trembling with fear in their eyes.

Not only because these people have never seen such a scene, but also because the black mist seems to have some kind of magic.

Once you take one look at it, you feel like your soul will be sucked into the abyss.

However, there was no trace of fear on Sheng Liru's face.

She smiled coldly, her eyes turning cold and dazzling.

"I originally thought he was just a low-class trash, but I didn't expect that he could actually play with me for a while."

Sheng Liru closed her eyes and muttered something.

If you listen carefully, you will find obscure ancient texts.

The people behind him all had their ears fixed, wanting to hear what wrinkle spell he was reciting.

Can't understand……

And a young man is extremely focused.

However, for a while, only the words "Lord City God" could be heard clearly.

Official undercover - Chi Jie remained calm on the face, but was thinking secretly in his heart.

——What is Sheng Liru doing?

After all, this was the first time he saw Sheng Liru mutter something.

Usually, Sheng Liru only relies on talismans and some weird Gu insects.

Generally speaking, Sheng Liru would only worship the City God on time.

If there is another major event, or before a war is prepared, the city god will be worshiped as appropriate.

However, at this moment, he is engaged in a life-and-death fight with an unknown extraordinary creature!

Is it possible that doing this can increase combat effectiveness?

Next, Sheng Liru's reaction also gave the answer.

The golden light gradually rose.

As Sheng Liru muttered words, the light became brighter and brighter.

Gradually, a confrontation with Hongwu formed.

The golden light cut off the black fog, and behind Sheng Liru, everyone felt light all over.

At this time, looking at the dilapidated door panel with red mist through the golden light is no longer a breathtaking feeling.

However, that's not all.

Sheng Liru took out a talisman again and sandwiched it between her index finger and middle finger.

Golden light spread on the talisman, dyeing the originally red handwriting into gold.

Sheng Liru repeats her old trick!

The talisman roared sharply again and flew forward!

This time, the red mist seemed to have met its nemesis.

The talisman penetrated the red mist like a knife piercing tofu.

It exploded and the red mist dissipated.

Finally, the true face of what was inside was revealed.

That's a person.

He is a dwarf with a ferocious face, twisted bones, and short stature.

At this time, he was burned by the golden light and covered with scars.

However, he roared crazily.

"500 years!"

"Even if I die, I will never be your janitor slave again!"

As soon as he said this, Chi Jie, who was watching nearby, frowned.

——There seems to be a story behind this.

However, Sheng Liru didn't care.

——Take people’s money to eliminate disasters for them.

What's more, this guy had already killed someone before this.
