Chapter 1974 Scorching City
  After a long journey, Cheng Ying and the two finally officially entered the city. And this is also one of the few cities that has its own name. This place was named the Searing City, and according to local descriptions, the name came from a thermal power plant in the city.

"You are talking about the name of our city, right? The name of the Burning City is because the temperature of our city is higher than other cities. Even in the cold winter, the city is warm of.

Because there is the largest thermal power plant in this city, which should be called this name. The heat energy released by it is transmitted to thousands of our households through water pipes. This makes our city always maintain Wearing warmth. "

The residents in the city are much more confident than the residents in other towns outside, and here we can finally see something like the civilized world.

Although it does not mean that there will be no intrigues between people in the apocalypse, it is different from what the two imagined. In their imagination, in the apocalypse, with limited survival resources, the struggle between people will become more intense and cruel.

But the real situation is that in order to survive, everyone unites in an unprecedented way, because those who do not unite in this way are all dead.

If you think about it carefully, this kind of situation is normal in the apocalypse. Otherwise, why would anyone survive in the apocalypse? For individuals, they are ruthless and ruthless, and they constantly steal their own survival resources from others. , more conducive to individual survival.

But for civilization as a whole, if everyone does this, it will not be far from true destruction.

In the apocalypse when civilization is completely dead, everyone is cruel and ruthless. Mutual persecution is possible. On the other hand, if any civilization can survive such an apocalypse, it must be the most united type.

This type of civilization should be what the two people in front of them saw. Although he was introducing the origin of this city to them, the worker did not stop his work. What he did was to check the thermal power plant leading to various houses. pipeline.

This is actually similar to what Cheng Ying knew about the heating systems in some places before traveling through time. Thermal power plants will use this method to send the remaining heat energy generated by themselves to different households in the form of heating. It can be regarded as some kind of economical use of energy.

In this planet that is completely shrouded in darkness, there are no four seasons, but there is indeed an extremely cold season like winter.

In fact it's cold here most of the time, but sometimes it's even colder.

Here I have to mention an interesting point on this planet, that is the difference between light and brightness. Light can illuminate the darkness, but light cannot. Simple light can still bring heat, but it cannot illuminate the darkness. , which means that the normal rotation of seasons actually exists, and the sun's light can also shine on this planet. The two of them have confirmed this. The sun's light can shine on the planet and bring warmth. But these lights cannot be seen originally. They are shrouded in darkness. Only in the range of bright light can the sunlight be seen, so this city will have a very strange scene. When day and night alternate, Everyone can see the sun in the sky, even the blue sky, and the stars in the dark night, but once you leave this area, you will fall into complete darkness.

In the city, all this doesn't seem strange, but if you rely on a small number of special items to support a small area of ​​light in the wild, all this will appear very fantastic, because in this small area Among them, it is difficult to tell where the light comes from.

I can only feel the inexplicable light shining on my body, or starlight appearing.

The optical phenomenon of this planet is very strange. At a sufficient distance, light can penetrate the darkness and propagate directly. It can be seen within the bright range, but it cannot be seen at a closer distance.

This means that in the city, you can see the atmosphere and the stars, but you can't see everything in the surrounding darkness.

This is also a special law belonging to this world. It can be regarded as something that Lan Nuo needs to record when he comes to this world.

The two newcomers to the city had their identities quickly registered. There is no place for idlers in this world. No matter what you come to do in this city, you have to spend a certain amount of time and put in the necessary labor in a day.

Of course, the two people may be exceptions. After all, when they entered the city, the light released around them had been seen by all the soldiers in the city.

Therefore, it is judged that they are as powerful as the city lord. Maybe they are ancient gods. It is understandable that such people violate some rules.

And they will also personally see the city lord of this city, who can build such a city in the apocalypse. The city lord not only has strong strength and the ability to dispel darkness, but also has high requirements for ruling ability. He must be able to carry out Only by knowing how to mobilize the resources in the city can more people survive and stay in his current position. The most intuitive way to judge the quality of a city lord is the population of the city. Population can most intuitively reflect people's survival conditions in the apocalypse.

Especially in this special doomsday, in this special doomsday, people's beliefs can affect the ratio of light and darkness. The components of humanity itself, the flesh and blood of people. Darkness can also be dispelled to a certain extent, which means the more people there are. The survival of mankind as a whole will become easier.

"I'm glad to meet you. I didn't expect that there are still people who can cultivate to this level now. If you don't mind, come in and talk in detail." The city lord arrived faster than they imagined. This is a city that pays attention to efficiency. Even though there was no advanced technology in the city, the city lord still ran over immediately.

Yes, he ran here. It is hard to imagine that the owner of a city would make such a gaffe.

But other people on the roadside looked as normal, as if they had long been accustomed to their maturity and running in the city at such a speed that exceeded ordinary people.

It seems that this is a very common phenomenon, and people here do not think that running is a reckless move.

So much so that the residents of this city are a bit like characters in a game. They usually never leave when they can. They run when they go to work, when they go to eat, and even when they go home after get off work. Yes, even if you can't run, you can still walk at the fastest speed.

This is a special culture derived from the apocalypse, which makes the maximum use of time and resources. "Where are you from? I can feel that you are more powerful than me." The city lord looked younger than expected. However, the two of them could easily tell his age. In fact, he was not young. He had already lived for the first half of the year. However, his extraordinary characteristics made his body age slower, and he deliberately controlled his appearance. , to make yourself look younger.

And through the precise induction of extraordinary beings, the two of them can clearly perceive that the other person is just an ordinary third-level extraordinary person.

Although the probability of extraordinary beings being born among humans is very low, both of them knew that humans in the wild ocean and the turbulence of time and space were different from humans outside. In some worlds, the entire world itself does not have much extraordinary power, so most humans are ordinary people.

But in these worlds with chaotic time and space, in worlds with extraordinary power, humans are the same as other races and can easily master extraordinary power.
.
  And this world is also one of the worlds with extraordinary power. Once upon a time, humans built magnificent cities. The establishment of advanced civilization relies on the power of technology and magic. Relying on this power, they were able to achieve space colonization, at least they were able to achieve it all in such a short period of time.

As for the extraordinary, it still exists now, but it has become a rare existence. Otherwise, cities would not be so rare.

"It's not convenient to disclose our origins for the time being, but I think you should have got some information about us, right? We have helped the cities we passed along the way. This should be enough to prove that we have no malicious intentions. You can treat us as traveling I came here to understand the conditions of different cities in the world.

I hope to have a deeper understanding of your city and your past history. What exactly happened in this world in the past? Others may not realize what those ruins outside the city are, but we know very well that they should be the once powerful human civilization.

What happened to make it what it is now? How did humans survive? Why is there not even a single corpse in such a huge city? Where did the ancient people go? "

This series of questions made the city lord a little unable to react, but the expressions of the two people still changed: "That's right, you have such a strong strength, it is not surprising to know this. It is hard to imagine that in such a dark age, Among them, there are still people who can cultivate to your level.

You are also qualified to know this, but what I know is not necessarily the truth, nor is it all. I can only tell you the knowledge I have gained through inheritance.

I am the 13th generation city lord of this outstanding city. This city has stood in darkness for more than five thousand years. This long time has been enough to make countless histories disappear in the process. Relying on word of mouth and some written records, only a few words can be left.

But we can still barely piece together how powerful human civilization once was.

First of all, what I want to tell you is that the earth beneath our feet is actually a planet. Beyond this planet, there are many similar planets, and our ancestors have arrived at those planets and transformed them into a land where we can live.

I think through this, you should be able to imagine to a certain extent how glorious human civilization was in the past.

The advent of darkness is also gradual. At first, the ratio of darkness to light is actually very large. Darkness is just an inconspicuous hazard hidden in the shadows of human cities.

No one at that time could have imagined that darkness would grow to where it is today.

However, as these darkness hidden in the corners of the city caused more and more serious crises one after another, human civilization began to pay attention to this and realized the continuous expansion of darkness and its irreversibility.

Now we no longer know how humans found the power of light that can restrain darkness, but in short they found this power, and through some method, injected this power into the blood of humans before darkness completely fell. Among them, we have the ability to survive in the dark.

It’s just that there was not enough time. What humans did in the past was only to implant our light power into our blood, but not to strengthen it enough to allow us to live completely free in the darkness.

Therefore, we must use blood to light a bonfire and stimulate the light power in the blood to create a safe zone. We must use special methods to stimulate the hidden power in our blood.

We can even use the power of runes to mobilize the power in our blood and release them in different ways, so that we can survive in this darkness.

And those who didn't have time to experience transformation like us were already wiped out in ashes the moment darkness fell. I only know this about the general situation. There are still some ancient books in the city's library. If you want to read them, I can take you to see them. Many of the things mentioned in them are beyond my understanding. They only existed in ancient times. Nouns, I wonder if you can have some associations with these words. "

Cheng Ying frowned: "That means you don't actually know where your runes come from."

Hearing this, the city lord seemed a little excited: "Do you know where our runes come from? Please tell us that these precious runes are of great help to us to survive in the dark. If you can If we understand the existence of these runes, we can obtain more runes, and master their laws, then we may really be able to defeat the darkness."

Cheng Ying shook his head: "Unfortunately, there cannot be more runes. If my guess is correct, all the runes you know are all the runes. The ones you have forgotten have been completely lost." It means that the runes no longer exist at all. These runes only have meaning if someone knows them."
