Fish
The air once again fell into dead silence.
Although as early as when he was in the Human Domains, Chen Ling knew that Lu Xun had prophesied the return of the Red Star, at that ti he didn't know what the Red Star actually ant, nor did he know how strong a destructive power [Y-012] possessed. Looking at it now, this matter was far more serious than he had imagined!
The last Candlelight World directly pierced through by [Y-012] had already beco the Gray World beneath their feet. Since these two worlds were already similar, Chen Ling didn't think the Human Domains had the ability to resist the next attack from this thing. After all, next ti it wouldn't be as simple as brushing past, but crashing straight towards here.
The current Gray World is the future fate of the Human Domains.
"Is there any way to stop it?"
The mont this question was asked, Chen Ling fell silent. He opened his mouth and added, "... Forget it, pretend I didn't ask."
The "human ego" carved into Chen Ling's mind instinctively began to substitute himself into the perspective of the Human Domains. But imdiately after, he realized that he was no longer human now... He was the Calamity of Mockery in the Gray World. Even if the Candlelight World where the Human Domains were located was destroyed by the Red Star, what did it have to do with him?
The youth seed to have not heard the second half of Chen Ling's sentence at all, continuing:
"This, I don't know either... but so far, there hasn't been a case of a Candlelight World surviving the impact of a Y-series teor."
"If the current appearance of the Gray World is because of the Red Star's impact, then where did the Calamities co from?"
Chen Ling asked the question he was most concerned about.
"Good question."
As they spoke, the two had already walked into the depths of Civilization Embers.
The already chaotic and disorderly city ruins beca even more bizarre and grotesque as the two went deeper. So matter even floated directly in the air, like specins embedded in world fissures. Small-scale civilization collapses continuously ford and annihilated around them. Fortunately, with the youth leading the way, they could always bypass the collapsing areas one step ahead and wouldn't be drawn in.
If Wu Yi really ca here, given the density of the collapses here, it would probably be torn into three sections on the spot.
"Although I have so guesses about the origin of these Calamities, I haven't deeply investigated... After all, I'm not interested in them." The youth pointed to a certain place above his head and said calmly,
"If you want to know, go find it yourself... This is the deepest part of Civilization Embers, burying a lot of intelligence from the final monts of this world. Perhaps you can find what you want here."
Chen Ling looked towards the youth's finger, only to see a massive nuclear submarine silently suspended in the air. Around it also floated a large amount of missile fragnts, as well as the wreckage of planes and even satellites.
"Is it safe up there?"
"With here, it's safe." The youth answered indifferently.
Chen Ling raised an eyebrow, secretly stealing another glance at him from the corner of his eye. For so reason, amidst this youth's mystery, there was always a trace of imperceptible pride... It wasn't quite the sa as Ji Xuan's chuunibyou. The youth before him, how should one put it... spoke a bit cockily.
Chen Ling nodded, his figure stepping on Cloud Steps, flying straight towards that massive nuclear submarine.
The size of this nuclear submarine was extrely large; the shadow it cast on the ground alone occupied several streets, and there were also characters carved on it that Chen Ling couldn't read. After circling the submarine once, he directly used Reshaping to open a door and walked in.
Just as he walked in, a faint fishy stench assailed his face. Chen Ling felt this fishy stench was sowhat familiar, but for a mont, he couldn't rember where he had slled it before.
He rummaged through the submarine for a long ti without seeing any human remains either. Everywhere he looked, there were still only specially-made clothes scattered all over...
However, inside the submarine, he found quite a few paper docunts.
These docunts were a thick stack. Aside from a large amount of data and text that Chen Ling couldn't read, there were also pictures that were difficult to distinguish what exactly they were.
"If only I could read the text on it." Chen Ling sighed.
He suddenly realized, could it be that when the youth just now indifferently said he "wasn't interested in these", it was because he, like himself, simply couldn't read the text at all?
It shouldn't be... Although he didn't know his background, that youth's knowledge obviously exceeded the Human Domains and the Integration Faction. Maybe he's a well-inford and knowledgeable genius proficient in languages?
Just as Chen Ling was hesitating whether to take these docunts to the youth for translation, an idea suddenly surged in his mind.
He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the Great Crimson Theatrical Robe had already been dyed black again.
Chen Ling, who had activated his Second Personality, flashed a sharp glint in his pupils. In the next second, an invisible storm swept out with him as the center!
[Thought Storm]!
As Thought Storm swept these papers in, the text that Chen Ling originally couldn't recognize suddenly took the initiative to turn into anings he could understand, drilling into his mind!
"It works?"
Thought Storm was inherently an ability obtained from Thought Calamity, and the original text in the Gray World was also a part engraved in Thought Calamity's "thoughts".
After Chen Ling discovered he had beco able to read Gray World text, he imdiately began to read through the docunts in his hands one by one.
"July 11, 1990, the first deep-sea gene chain modification experint announced success."
"Scientists of the Xitan Nation '???' successfully rewrote the genetic code of a lanternfish into a whale's body. According to observations, the experintal subject completed self-devouring and self-evolution within 30 days, and survived healthily. This experint caused a sensation worldwide, and the research team nad the experintal subject '?????'..."
"..."
"In 1992, the Xitan Nation dissolved. '?????' was regarded as a precious experintal sample and transferred among six countries. After a total of more than three hundred experints, the experintal subject was confird to be suffering from high-pressure syndro and heavy tal poisoning, entering the aging period. After the World Nature Conservation Association's efforts, it was finally decided to release '?????' back into the ocean."
"..."
"In 2009, Deep Sea Expedition 7, while executing an underwater exploration mission, suspectedly witnessed traces of an ultra-giant creature in the deep sea. In order to ensure the absolute safety of the country's territorial waters, after an internal resolution of the Fran Nation, our ship was dispatched to hunt and kill it."
Chen Ling flipped to here, and the printed materials were basically gone. Those thick stacks of docunts were all various experintal reports and experintal photos about this mysterious experintal subject.
He picked out the most recent experintal photo and carefully sized up the giant black shadow in the pool for a long ti, his brows furrowing slightly...
On the giant shadow in the pool, two huge, basketball-like lantern giant eyes were incomparably clear.
Chen Ling suddenly felt that this deep-sea lanternfish looked sowhat familiar.
"Could it be..."
Chen Ling seed to have realized sothing, imdiately pushing aside these docunts and taking out the last piece of handwritten material to read carefully.
