Chapter 1055 People in the Ruins
Mirage-like shadows suddenly appeared in the clear and clear sky. They looked like pieces of land falling down at an angle. When Qian Qian pointed it out to me, these shadows were still half-real and half-real, and their edges kept shaking, but Within a few seconds, the phantoms become clear and approach the ground at extremely high speeds: by this time, there is no doubt about the authenticity of these "phantoms", that they are real.
And it's falling.
"Oh my God, where is this?!" I screamed and almost jumped up. Others also reacted at this time and looked up at the sky. Everyone's reactions were different at this time: Xiaobubu and Huiska They clapped their hands, jumped and screamed, looking completely happy and carefree; Qian Qian raised her head and said in a long voice "Oh——", not knowing where her thoughts had gone; the five-person group of protoss slivers were still confused and calm. It was like seeing a swarm of flies approaching, only Bingtis blew a loud whistle to show that he was paying close attention to the progress of the incident; Seiko couldn't help but exclaimed, she was still not used to this sudden scene, and in her Ji Shanshan, who was beside him, calmly summoned a bunch of shields floating in the air and put them in front of him, saying boldly: "I want to see who can break through the king's barrier!" Pandora is the most magical one. She instantly appeared in front of her. A small anti-aircraft gun emplacement was opened on the ground, seemingly ready to shoot down everything in the sky: fortunately, I suppressed it in time.
Sandora frowned and said through mental connection: "How many more bizarre wonders are planned to come to this world?"
The land in the sky is approaching fast. It seems that if it falls like this, it will collide with the fragment of the planet under our feet in a minute or two, so everyone is prepared to resist the impact: that is, open the shield and be careful to stain the clothes. But the situation changed again. The land began to slow down when it was about one or two kilometers away from the ground, and it became slower and slower. We did not take any action, but quietly watched where it was going to cause trouble. After all, in Before you understand the rules of this world, it is better not to interrupt local natural phenomena rashly. I have to say that this scene in front of me is really shocking. About a dozen huge pieces of suspended land tilt and slowly slide down from the sky, and the landing point of one of them is obviously right next to you. This kind of pressure and heaviness may make you see a similar scene for the first time. The people suffocated, and I even thought of myths and legends: After being defeated by the new gods, the old god's aerial kingdom burned with flames, constantly sprinkling hot sulfur, and slowly fell from the clouds to the earth in the thick smoke. And the new Kingdom of God was slowly lifted up by the Holy Fathers, Holy Mothers and Holy Maidens amidst the praises of the believers... I'm sorry that I have read too many messy Bibles written by Lilina, but this scene before me is really touching.
Maybe those monsters on Monster Mountain felt the same way when they faced Atlantis falling from the sky. But only one fell on their head. And a group of them fell on our heads, and by visual inspection, each one was not much smaller than Atlantis...
"Brother, is this... okay?" As those floating continents gradually slowed down and visually estimated that they would come to a complete stop before touching the ground, Seiko still chose to hide next to me and asked cautiously, no matter what happened in front of me. How brave is she when the world is in crisis? It’s still a bit hairy at this point: sometimes terror and oppression are not the same thing.
I patted this cheap girl on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. If the sky falls, a tall person will be able to bear it..."
I'm just talking casually. Pandora and Huesca immediately started looking at this side with desperate eyes, especially the former. Those gray eyes that had never shown any emotion were about to cry: these two sisters were the ones who would be safer than Wu Dalang after the sky fell. I really shouldn't mention the word "tall" in front of them.
Apart from being a little surprised at the beginning, I quickly calmed down. Although the scene in front of me was spectacular, I was also a person who had reviewed the launching ceremony of the Eternal-class formation at the star port. Believe me, those giants created by the Empire Any one of them is more spectacular when activated. After being immersed in the world of giant ships and cannons of the empire all day long, I have long been immune to things related to the words "huge" and "powerful".
"It seems to be stopping." Qianqian pointed at the land that was very close to the sky and shouted, and as if in response to her words, the first falling floating island closest to the ground stood firmly still in mid-air: I even felt I heard a brake sound...
Mainly because the scene in front of me was so immediate. A group of continents falling from the sky actually stopped in front of my nose!
In the end, more than a dozen huge floating land masses hovered very close to the ground. The nearest one was even less than a hundred meters high. It gave people the feeling that they could be reached with just one hand. They covered the sky and the earth. Hovering in the air, it casts huge shadows on the ground. I think the center of those shadows must be as dark as evening: if you are brave enough to stand directly under a floating island less than a hundred meters above the ground and take a look. .
We looked around with curious eyes, but those lands that fell from the sky may have been distributed across the entire continent. At this scale, the naked eye has limited vision, and these floating islands blocked each other. When they landed, they were no longer visible. Of all the empty islands, it can only be judged from the previous images of the sky that there are about fifteen or six pieces of land that fell. Their posture is very strange: not all floating islands are in the normal position of the head and feet. On the contrary, each floating island is tilted and forms a certain angle with the ground. The closest floating island to us is approximately There is an angle of thirty degrees, which is exactly the inclination angle of the lower half of the rock layer, so it can almost cling to the land beneath our feet. From a distance, the land looks like a gentle uphill slope in the distance: it’s just that At the bottom of this uphill slope is a crack tens of meters high.
Farther away, a half-blocked building fell onto the land, forming a ninety-degree angle with the grassland below. Its ground was almost perpendicular to the grassland.
"Sandora, let's see what's going on with the gravity here this time?" I glanced at the blond girl next to me. Sound reminder.
Sandora was already doing this. A bunch of her sensors were online 24 hours a day. After hearing this, she shrugged: "It's a mess. Every sky island has its own gravitational structure, which is different from the one under our feet." The existing gravitational pull of the planet fragments does not affect each other. This is really the most chaotic world view I have ever seen. Although there are many floating lands in the God Realm, at least they are not stacked together."
Bingtis immediately snorted. It seemed that someone commented that her hometown attracted the attention of this female gangster.
"Shall we go up and have a look?" Qianqian enthusiastically grabbed my arm and said this, but she was already running towards the nearest place to us, which was at an angle of 30 degrees to the earth. That floating land, "looks like there's something there!"
Everyone knew about Qian Qian's habits, so they could only smile helplessly. Follow closely behind.
Sandora is right, all these floating islands have their own independent gravitational directions. But the intensity seems to be the same as the continent below. It feels slightly higher than Earth's gravity. When we entered a certain range above the nearest floating land, we suddenly felt a change in the direction of gravity, from vertical downwards to a thirty-degree tilt. This abrupt switch reminded me of some poorly designed deep-sky stars. (I have seen such an example on the spacecraft of the Galactic Civilization Community fleet back then), the artificial gravity zone on it lacked effective planning, and there was no smooth transition layer between the two gravity zones, so that the crew had to look at the signboard to help Holding on to the handrail, I dared to carefully step into the range of another gravity generator - oh. It seems a little far-fetched.
"Could this be the 'miracle' Lilina mentioned?" Lin Xue landed on the floating land with us, jumping on the spot to find a sense of reality. "Things from another parallel space suddenly materialized and then appeared in the current world."
"It seems so." I glanced towards the edge of the land. Just over eighty meters below, is the prairie where we came from. Looking into the distance, we can see more floating islands that are almost touching the ground. , "What a spectacle, Sandora, do you have any guesses?"
"In terms of physical space, the broken land in the sky and the continent below are in the same space, but they each have independent gravity, and it seems that except for material exchange, everything else is also independent," Sandora Sky Blue His big eyes blinked twice, with a look of interest on his face, "Perhaps there was an incomplete dislocation after the two spaces overlapped. Do you still remember where we found Anweina?"
"Are you talking about the haunted house in Daron County?" I suddenly remembered that Anweina was an important member of the family. Of course I remembered the place where I found her very clearly: it was a haunted house that appeared on the earth. But its real location should be in Azeroth. Some kind of world dislocation caused the haunted house to be cut off and landed on the earth. However, it still retains the material rules of the Azeroth world and is incompatible with the earth's environment: Such as the undead power that can support the existence of ghosts and ghouls.
"The two are somewhat similar, except that the scale here is larger, and it seems that these broken aerial lands are not completely isolated from their original space." Sandora took the lead and walked forward, "Look, man-made objects! Behind that big tree, there seems to be a stone tower!"
This island in the sky is not bare. It has a completely different landscape from the grassland below. There are very dense forests and vines that have grown for countless years. There is a forest just a few hundred meters in front of where we landed. At the entrance, Shandora only walked forward for a while, and saw something different between these vines and forest trees with sharp eyes: man-made traces.
They are hidden behind dense trees, and are still nearly a kilometer away from here. It is impossible for human eyes to distinguish traces of bricks and tiles from the gaps in the trees here. Only Shandora can Saw them at a glance.
Everyone followed Sandora into the forest happily as if they had discovered a new world. The touch under their feet was extremely soft, filled with humus accumulated for countless years and relatively fresh fallen leaves. In addition, there were vines everywhere. It was really not easy to walk. Pandora pulled out two ship-cutting knives and waved them in front to clear the way. Viska also took out the searing ray cannon and prepared to help: but it was strictly forbidden. She might burn the entire forest. Soon we found the traces of the man-made artifact discovered by Sandora: it was a tilted and cracked stone totem, leaning against a towering ancient tree near the entrance of the forest, and part of the top had melted into the trunk of the tree. As one body. Obviously it has been around for a long time. This stone totem is very large, with at least four or five people hugging it. It is more than ten meters high by visual inspection. It is carved with straight cross lines, and there is no meaning. The lower part of the totem is covered with moss, and its base cannot be seen: I guess this thing is taller than it looks, but part of it is already buried under the soil.
"At least tens of thousands of years..." Qian Qian reached out and tapped on the totem to determine how long it had been soaked in time. But she was still a little confused, "It's not necessarily accurate. There are several gaps in time, as if it was pulled into a static time and space more than once."
Lin Xue had already run to the other direction to check the situation. At this time, he greeted from a distance: "Look, there's one here too!"
What she found was a group of thick stone slabs hidden under vines and fallen leaves. Those huge stone slabs had been almost completely buried. There are only a few small corners exposed, and I firmly believe that the eldest lady did not discover these things purely by eyesight.
Pandora and Huesca violently "cleaned" the vines and the like covering these stone slabs. We discovered that these might be fallen monuments: some of them rested on heavy gray stone. The stones looked like they were the original base. I don’t know what kind of material these stone slabs, which are as tall as a person, were carved from, and the original carvings on them have been blurred, making it impossible to distinguish their meanings.
"This looks like an ancient ruins," Qian Qian said, a fact that was obvious to everyone at a glance, "Ajun, do you think this island was inhabited before?"
I began to imagine: "Maybe there was such a planet, and a very brilliant civilization was once born. Then one day the planet was broken, and the continent became a pile of fragments. So the brilliant civilization turned into gravel in these forests. Scumbag. I just can’t understand how the planet has been shattered into such a mess. How can these forests and stones be preserved intact? Unless these floating islands are originally like this, just like the sky continents in the God Realm, they are naturally fragmented. Otherwise It was after these continents were broken that ecological circles and even intelligent civilizations repopulated on them. I feel that both conjectures are not very reliable."
Qian Qian groaned, squatted down and continued to pick at the stone slabs. I couldn't help but think of her father as an archeology expert, and Qian Qian had been exposed to it since she was a child. She seemed quite comfortable with the broken bricks and tiles dug out of the ground. Interested in. Soon, she made a preliminary judgment that the civilization here should be roughly equivalent to the end of the slave society, and the civilization that built these ruins had mastered the very sophisticated technology of batch cutting of stone: this showed that they had large tools. She judged all this information from the vague patterns on the stones and the way several boulders were stacked. This move made me feel quite awe-inspiring, and then I was deeply worried that Qianqian must not wake up and just have nothing to do. Interest in digging into ancestral graves...
"These stones are definitely not produced on this floating island. Large stones must be provided by at least large-scale quarries." Lin Xue also analyzed it expertly, "So this ruins should be from before the land was broken." It was built, otherwise we can only think that the ancient people who built the ruins mastered the technology of airlifting huge boulders between several floating islands... which is even more unreliable."
We studied the ruins here with great interest for a while, but after all, we are not experts, and we are only five minutes old. Soon we felt that this dark, humid and dirty forest ruins was not interesting, and we were ready to return to the mainland. On the grassland, Sandora has almost straightened out the vibration pattern at the edge of the space. Maybe in an hour or two we can forcefully break the space and join my sister and the others. But just when everyone was about to leave, Sandora suddenly frowned. : "Wait, I didn't notice just now... there seems to be someone on this island."
"Is there anyone there?" I was stunned for a moment and looked around subconsciously. I saw a dense forest where I saw it. "Is there anyone living in this forest ruins?"
"I don't know... go over and have a look. Pandora, put away the naval guns. It doesn't mean that anyone can be a target for you." After bouncing on his head, he took the lead and walked deeper into the forest.
Although Shandora has sensed that there is someone deep in the forest, the other person is still far away from us. After advancing for more than ten minutes, we first discovered the first fresh trace of human activity: a small temporary camping site. On the flat top of a boulder in the forest, traces of a campfire were found, as well as a pair of tattered leather gloves that had been discarded and no longer usable. The embers of the bonfire had cooled, but Qian Qian could tell that the flames went out within the last few hours.
We continued to move forward for a while, and suddenly heard a loud noise in the distance, which sounded like a bomb explosion. It even shook the nearby leaves and fell down. Everyone looked at each other and immediately accelerated and rushed forward.
Soon, we found the place where the accident happened: there was a large clearing with sparse vegetation deep in the jungle. The shrubs and smaller plants around the clearing had been torn to pieces in the shock wave of the explosion, and in the center of the clearing was a The huge explosion impact crater, the black soft soil was thrown away by the explosion and fell in an area of several hundred meters in radius. From this soil we saw broken slate fragments: it seems that there are many ruins here, of course, they have been violently destroyed. Lost.
Lin Xue scratched her hair: "By the way...will the people we are looking for be evenly distributed in this big pit..."
This girl's mouth is hopeless.
Just as she finished speaking, I suddenly saw the soil in the distance suddenly move, and then two gray-faced people came out of it. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
