Chapter 533 The Road to Survival

"First, tell me the approximate location."

"Where exactly is this place?"

Under the sunset, a group of people sat in front of Lindsay, as obedient as a group of trained ducks.

Among them, the two young men were still sitting in the front, facing Lindsay directly.

When they heard the first question, their expressions were a little confused, and then the older one on the left tried to answer:

"Is this... a wasteland?"

"..."

Lindsay was speechless for a moment and almost coughed.

He tried to slow down his tone:

"I mean a more specific name."

"For example, what mountain is called? What river is called? This place should have a formal name, right?"

"By the way, do you know the teleportation array?"

"I came here from another world, using the teleportation array to directly cross the space."

This time, the two young men finally responded.

The young man named Tieyu who was holding a spear in the previous battle immediately replied:

"We know that the teleportation courtyard is occupied by a group of bandits!"

"Occasionally, people from other worlds will be killed or sold by them!"

Bandits?

Lindsay raised his eyebrows.

The people in the teleportation courtyard were all bandits.

So what he encountered was not a murder scene, but rather a justice for the heavens!

While Lindsay was thinking.

Kate, who was holding a sword and shield next to him, had been beaten up before, but she was still on guard:

"You, you can escape from them."

"Are you going to capture us and sell us? You, just sell me, I'm an awakener, worth more food than ordinary people!"

"..."

Linsey was dizzy and even a little angry by such questions:

"Hey, why am I a human trafficker again?"

"What's wrong with your attitude towards me?"

"We have never met before, and I rescued you first. It's okay if you don't thank me - there is no reason to show such hostility to me, right?"

What Linsey said is indeed human nature.

The experiences of the two young people conflicted with their simple feelings. For a while, they looked at each other, and no one could speak:

"Tieyu, Kate, it's done!"

The two young people were a little speechless.

At this time, an ordinary person in his 30s in the crowd came forward to replace them and sit in front of Linsey.

After seeing Lindsay, the middle-aged man bowed slightly to show respect, and his vicissitudes of life revealed a trace of calmness:

"Sir, please forgive me."

"If you really come from another world and don't know the situation here, you can ask me all your questions."

Seeing that there is someone with whom he can communicate normally, Lindsay is naturally very welcome:

"Then please tell me what is going on here first!"

The middle-aged man nodded:

"Wasteland, we call it this now."

"But decades ago, this place should be called the Moon Crying Mountain World."

"But over the years, the climate of this world has become more and more dead and desolate, and there are very few places for people to live. In order to survive, people calculate, murder, kidnap, and fight each other..."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man paused.

He looked at the two young awakeners behind him, with a somewhat disappointed tone:

"Both of them are about 20 years old this year. They have not experienced the prosperous times in the past, so naturally they don't know these things."

"..."

In their twenties, they don't know what happened in the previous generation.

Lindsay was silent for a while.

He knew that the battle in the Capital of Law was so fierce.

But he never thought that the situation would be so tragic that even in a place across the world, it could develop to the point of endangering the inheritance of civilization.

Lindsay thought carefully about the information he had collected.

Decades ago, at the end of the golden age of the Capital of Law when talents emerged in large numbers, Hansike also left during that period.

Then, the old king died.

The previous legal system lasted for more than 10 years, and then it completely collapsed.

According to Elini.

The official war in the Capital of Law lasted for more than 20 years, even before these two young people were born!

"..."

At this moment, Lindsay looked at the dusty humans in front of him again.

This is actually a small human settlement.

And the age of the most people is no more than 30 years old, which may be a reflection of the average life expectancy in this world.

Lindsay's mood suddenly became heavy, and his tone became lower:

"You guys, have you ever thought about the issue of civilization inheritance?"

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Just surviving is already a great effort, how can I care about these things."

"Today - even I can only teach them to write their own names reluctantly."

Lindsay continued to ask:

"What's the matter with you walking outside as a group now?"

The middle-aged man continued to reply:

"Two weeks ago, our settlement was attacked. They were so numerous and powerful that I had to flee with these children. On the way... many people died on the road."

"Please forgive their recklessness, this is really..."

The middle-aged man's voice was a little choked, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Lindsay's anger disappeared.

In such a world where the average age is 20 or 30 years old and resources are extremely scarce, he really can't ask the residents here to be well-educated.

He waited for a while, and when he saw that the middle-aged man's mood had stabilized, he continued to ask:

"So what are you going to do next?"

"Continue to wander in the wasteland until you find a place to live again?"

"This world is completely out of order." The middle-aged man continued to shake his head, "I heard that the world in the west is worse than ours. The world in the east is closer to the Capital of Law, but many forces are still fighting there."

"I think - even if it is a war-torn place. But if there are resources, we may be able to find a gap for survival..."

Tie Yu behind him suddenly spoke at this time.

He took advantage of Lindsay's opportunity to speak out his concerns about challenging authority for two weeks:

"Grandpa, isn't that place in the east called the Pitch Black Abyss? No one has been able to get there for decades?"

The middle-aged man glared at Tieyu fiercely:

"Then tell me what to do, go back and die, or rob other people's settlements?"

Tieyu remained silent, and Kate next to him tried to speak:

"Green Swamp..."

Kate just said the name, the middle-aged man's eyes changed, and he shouted:

"Don't even think about it!"

"If you go there, you can only become someone else's food, don't think about being a high-ranking awakener!"

Kate, who was scolded, lowered her head and stopped talking.

The middle-aged man suddenly realized that Lindsay was next to him, and quickly lowered his posture humbly:

"I'm sorry to make you laugh!"

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, why did you come to this desolate place?"

Lindsay said his purpose calmly:

"I plan to go to the Capital of Law."
