Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 496 [Chapter Hidden in the Abyss] Forty: Reaching the Origin of Disaster
Chen Yan looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar method of dating the heavenly stems and earthly branches of the lunar calendar, and a thought arose in his heart.

'I wouldn't be crazy already...'

He looked at the faces of the passers-by on the street that had the exact same characteristics as those of the Asians in Tianshen State, and he had doubts about the existence of [City of Overlapping Mountains].

'Is the [City of Overlapping Mountains] I saw real or fake? '

'How could [City of Overlapping Peaks] be full of Asians from Tianshenzhou?Shouldn't they be strain people?How can strain people exist as Asians? '

He looked at the incredible steel city again.

'Could it be that all this is just an illusion caused by my loss of control?
Could it be...Because I have the deepest facial features of Asians in my head, so when I have hallucinations, my subconscious calls the impression of Asian faces deep in my brain, so all I see are Asians look like? '

The more he thought about it, the more chaotic he became, and he couldn't extricate himself from such unrestrained thoughts.

'Perhaps...there is no 'resurrected' city of mountains at all, and everything I experienced underground is also an illusion caused by my loss of control?

The city in ruins that I wish to see is the real one!

Everything I've been through is fake!
everything i see...

They are all things that only exist in my fantasy caused by losing control! '

He took out his mobile phone with trembling hands and opened the inspiration strength APP, only to see that the inspiration strength still did not break through the maximum value, but swayed below the maximum value.

'But no matter what, mobile phones can't lie! '

He watched the floating mercury ball on the thermometer APP, and gradually calmed down.

'My spirit must have been disturbed. '

He looked awe-inspiring.

'[City of Overlapping Peaks] has been revived, [Brain Ball Strain] must have been revived, I guess I have been infected by [Brain Ball Strain] now, that's why I have such... cranky thoughts. '

Chen Yan finally got a more reliable conclusion, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

'According to the precedents of Alice and Wilke Young, even if the bacterial organism [Brain Ball Strain] is infected by it, there will be an infection process for a period of time. This process takes a few days... or even half a month. '

'That is to say, as long as I find my teammates, leave the city of overlapping peaks, and return to the surface before being completely infected by [Brain Ball Strain], I will be saved! '

Chen Yan opened the map marked with Paulkin Walker's location again, and kept approaching the little red dot representing him along the street.

As Alice described before, the people in the city of overlapping peaks look a little weird, and the location of the buildings is also very strange. After Chen Yan came to the street, he saw that the buildings here are layered——

There are streets, gardens and shops between the upper and lower buildings. It is obvious that each floor is a [block].

The adjacent two floors [blocks] are connected in some way. Although the buildings in the upper block and the lower block are partially bordered, those bordering parts are not enough to support the buildings in the upper block.

So, the buildings on the block seem to use some type of levitation technology?

The blocks in some locations are not "horizontal", but have a certain slope, but the pedestrians walking on them did not "fall" because of this. When they walked on the sloping streets, the angle formed between their bodies and the street was still at right angles.

'Um...is this some kind of gravity technology...'

Looking at this part of the city as a whole, it is almost completely "hollowed out".

It is really hard for Chen Yan to imagine why such a completely "hollowed out" city does not frequently collapse and fall.

As far as the city within Chen Yan's current field of vision is concerned, there are a total of 6 floors [blocks].

From bottom to top, the higher the block looks, the more "high-end" it is. There are even streets and buildings that look like glass in the block on the top 6th floor.

Chen Yan narrowed his eyes and stared at the "glass building" for a while, then found a line of small words with dim green light "floating" on the top of the glass building:
"Old Radiation Ring Natural Disaster Sequence Research Institute"

It was inexplicable.

The neighborhood where Chen Yan is currently located is already very shabby just by looking at it. Not only are there not many commercial buildings, most of the areas are rusty, and some buildings are so rusty that the doors and windows cannot be opened.

Should this block be considered a mass residential area?
In the area above Chen Yan's head, the building looks relatively new, and there are obviously shops similar to it. The billboards on the top of the shop are like some kind of hologram, which is different from the hologram in Chen Yan's cognition. This holographic image is obviously based on a very high-end algorithm, and it can solicit and interact with customers by itself.

Chen Yan lowered his already stiff head.

In the neighborhood where he is currently, most of the people are dressed in weird clothes. Chen Yan's miner's uniform is not the most conspicuous in the crowd——

Most of the people's clothes on the street are already very worn out. The types that can be seen at a glance are various styles of assault jackets, obviously ill-fitting factory work clothes, anti-static protective clothing with black armor, and a large number of heavy isolation clothing with reflective stickers. .

Even if they don't belong to a civilization, Chen Yan can tell the identities of pedestrians at a glance——

They are workers.

Although wearing these heavy "equipment", the pedestrians on the street did not show any discomfort. They carried out normal daily life in this city, just like the pedestrians on Walker Street in Yanan City. "Heavy" equipment is just a part of their lives, not a "burden".

There are only pedestrians on the streets of the block, and there are no similar "vehicles". However, between different blocks, Chen Yan saw vehicles floating "out of thin air"——

There is no sound of an engine, and there is no such thing as an air wave. Those things that look like "vehicles" are like "ghosts" that shuttle through the air between the blocks without a trace. sound.

'The technology of the city of overlapping peaks is even more incomprehensible than that of pirates...'

Seeing that he hadn't attracted people's attention, Chen Yan followed the direction of Paulkin Walker pointed on the mobile phone map, and walked towards a certain location in the center of the city of mountains.

The atmosphere in the city of overlapping peaks is quite strange. The people here...look like normal people, but they are actually strains of people. The atmosphere between each other is a bit depressing, and greetings can only be carried out in the form of "whispering".

The feeling they gave Chen Yan was very similar to the feeling that when Chen Yan had just left Tianshenzhou, his hometown might encounter military disasters every day.

The original living environment of the city of overlapping mountains must have been very harsh.

Chen Yan looked at his mobile phone and counted for more than 30 minutes. He had arrived near the center of the block, that is, near the red dot where Paulkin Walker was.

'According to my footsteps, I can walk about three to five kilometers in more than 30 minutes. Not representative of its overall size. '

As Paulkin Walker said on the phone, at this moment, the central part of the block has been blocked, and Chen Yan can only see the layers pierced by the ruins of the Mida Laboratory from a farther position outside the blocked area. layer blocks.
