Chapter 72 Relics(1/2)
The center of the underground city, the top floor of the ten-story building.
This place is a completely different world from the outermost shanty town, as if we are still in modern society, and even equipped with elevators and floor-to-ceiling windows.
A tall, muscular woman wearing a green camouflage vest and black overalls stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking up at the "bright moon" outside the window. Judging from her appearance, she was none other than Yu Yan!
She was holding a glass of red wine and shaking it gently.
"The moonlight is so beautiful, but they all say it's fake."
Yu Yan raised her head and drank the glass of wine, turning her fierce eyes to the man sitting on the sofa.
"Zhao Ming, do you think this moonlight is real or fake?"
Zhao Ming is still handsome, and his crisp and well-fitting suit makes him look mature and steady. Six years has not made him older, but has made him more charming as a man.
But the woman in front of him wouldn’t be too embarrassed by him. It would be better if she could be Zhao Ming’s sister.
"Speaker, what you say is true is true, and what you say is false is false. Everything in this dungeon revolves around your will."
Zhao Ming lowered his head to show his respect.
Yu Yan nodded with satisfaction, strode over and put her arm around his shoulders: "Yes, I am more knowledgeable than your sister!"
Perhaps because of the physical contact, or perhaps because of hearing the word sister, Zhao Ming's body trembled and then calmed down quickly.
"Did Xiaoli make the Speaker angry again?" He lowered his eyes and turned his back to the woman, unable to see clearly the emotions in his eyes.
Yu Yan laughed loudly: "She is my darling, how could I be angry with her!"
"By the way, is there any news about those monsters that suddenly appeared?"
Let’s just talk about the less serious things for a while. Next we have to talk about the serious stuff. Some survivors reported that they have witnessed several strange monsters in Qishan City in the past few months, which are a bit like some supernatural creatures in legends.
.
Some don't look strong, but others are extremely terrifying. For example, there is a strange flying dragon with eyes all over its body, at least hundreds of them. Its whereabouts are strange, and it often flies and disappears on the spot.
He disappeared and appeared again at the other end of the city after a while.
So far, these monsters have not caused any casualties, but they live underground in Qishan City and often come out to collect supplies, so they are naturally very concerned about these new monsters.
Some people were worried that this was the precursor of another wave of drastic changes. The high-level officials of the dungeon originally wanted to block the information and wait until the truth was found out before making plans, but they had no means of restricting those monsters. The strange flying dragons were everywhere again.
Soon the news spread.
For a time, people in the underground city were in panic, and the prices of supplies had risen a lot, causing the senior management behind the scenes to have a headache.
Unlike Yu Yan, the leader of the base and the speaker of the underground city council, the other members are thinking about how to maintain the existence of the underground city every day.
The situation of the human survivors at this time is not optimistic. Various strange phenomena occur frequently and supplies are tight. Even if Yu Yan wants to enjoy it, she can't enjoy much. Drinking some reserved red wine and enjoying women is the limit.
.
Although they contacted an ancient existence some time ago, and the other party promised to protect them, but in the face of such a high-ranking existence, who can guarantee that he will not fall out?
"The good news is that these monsters that suddenly appeared have no intention of harming people. They seem to be searching for traces of strange elephants. We speculate that these monsters may also be the descendants of an ancient existence and are cleaning up the territory. Recently, many strange elephants have disappeared.
It’s probably related to the existence behind these monsters.”
Yu Yan nodded. This is indeed good news. Without the existence of strange elephants, human survivors will be much safer. At least they don't have to be so careful when collecting supplies.
"What about the bad news?"
Zhao Ming took a deep breath and said: "The bad news is that the ancient existence is probably in the underground city!"
"What!" Yu Yan was shocked. She used her fingers hard and crushed the goblet into pieces. The fragments stuck into her hand without leaving any scratches.
"There is a person with superpowers whose ability is to detect energy fluctuations. She has observed several extremely advanced energy reactions in the outermost shanty area."
"How advanced?"
"Only weaker than the ancient existence!"
Yu Yan frowned and murmured: "Made, these old people really don't stop!"
Zhao Ming's expression changed: "Speaker, trouble comes from your mouth!"
Yu Yan nonchalantly took another cup to put the wine in. The rose-red liquid shone like a dull ruby in the moonlight.
"I just scolded you, and I didn't mention them by name. If those old guys were really that strong, they would have come out to control us long ago, and there would be no need for all these bells and whistles!"
Zhao Ming listened, thought for a moment, and nodded in agreement. It's not like they haven't figured out anything in these years. Through some ancient documents and the propaganda of some fanatical believers, as well as communication with certain beings, they probably know this.
The origin of gods.
They come from ancient times and fell into a deep sleep due to the drastic changes in the apocalyptic environment. Now they wake up due to the energy impact brought by the solar storm.
However, although I am awake, I am not fully awake yet, so I have to go through various strange phenomena to regain my strength. In the words of believers, this is called completely awakening the great existence and calling for the arrival of His true body.
Yes, these ancient gods actually have followers in the last days!
Of course, it was not passed down from ancient times, but some people claimed to have been inspired by God as soon as they woke up and were God's messengers on earth. They called the strange elephants the shadow of God, and the strange elephants who killed people called it return.
Kingdom of God.
Some fanatical believers claim that when the Shadow of God collects enough believers and has a full understanding of the piety of people in this world, it will come to the mortal world, bring eternal bliss to the world, and no longer have to worry about the end of the world.
Needless to say, this trick has really fooled some people, and some extremists will even trick survivors into joining the strange phenomena - but this type of extremists are really not affected by the strange phenomena, which makes those believers even more fanatical.

However, Yu Yan and other senior officials don’t really believe in this stuff. Their simple values make them inherently distrust these gods. Maybe gods really exist, but what they bring is definitely not blessings, but more terrifying.
The end of the world!
"What do you think would happen if these two met?" Yu Yan rolled her eyes, thinking carefully.
Zhao Ming shook his head: "No, we are caught in the middle and may be crushed to death by the aftermath!"
Yu Yan took two steps and said fiercely: "Seek the skin of a tiger is death, and fighting between two tigers is also death. It is better to make the situation as chaotic as possible!"
"If we are forced to a dead end and those guys are still here, they will never just watch!"
Yu Yan seemed to have thought of something, and the more she talked, the more excited she became.
Zhao Ming's expression changed: "No! You absolutely cannot contact them!"
"Hey, you guys are still so obsessed with face. No matter what you pretend to be, aren't we all in the same group?"
"I'm different from them!" Zhao Ming said anxiously.
"What's the difference? Forget it. Don't worry about it!"
Zhao Ming wanted to persuade her again, but Yu Yan drove her away. She has such a stubborn and violent temper. I hope someone can persuade her at the council meeting tomorrow.
Or go find that person, the person he still doesn't know how to treat.
Before Zhao Ming left the tall building, he glanced at the top floor, his eyes seemed to have deep meaning.
......
"Invitation from the Underground City Council?"
Fang Nuo shook off the letter in his hand, disapproving of it.
This was brought by the dragon monster just now. It was said that a person with supernatural powers had stuffed it into it and asked it to take it back to show the being behind it.
"Probably they want to drag me down." He easily saw through the purpose of the council, which is really not difficult to guess.
However, Fang Nuo has no interest in this underground city council. He has been in the underground city for almost half a year and has collected almost all kinds of information.
As for the human survivors, their hips are still stretched as usual. The highest disclosed superpower level is level 7. Currently, only Yu Yan, the speaker of the Dungeon Council, has this level. Fang Nuo has checked, and it is probably between the second-level wizard and the third-level wizard.
Strength.
Although it is very scientific, the energy fluctuations are indeed close to the intensity of a third-level wizard, leaving other superpowers far behind, such as other members of the parliament. Their levels are generally around level 5 or 6, but they are not as strong as level 2 wizards.
Sorcerers are similar.
Fang Nuo had some doubts about this difference until he saw Yu Yan secretly flying from the rooftop of a high-rise building to the dome every day, and then coming to the ground through the passage behind the moon to bask in the sun.
He had previously implanted many mutated zombie tissues into Yu Yan, and now these tissues have affected Yu Yan's body composition. Compared to humans, she is closer to zombies and can also enjoy the bonus of solar radiation.
No wonder she has the ability to overwhelm everyone and become the absolute ruler of the dungeon.
But there is more behind Yu Yan. She carries several special energy marks on her body, and the aura of its source makes Fang Nuodu feel a little afraid.
This is also the reason why he did not directly take over the underground city. The water here is obviously much deeper than before.
Those energy marks should belong to different gods. It seems that the descendants of the snake people are right. The gods have indeed returned.
But he probably hasn’t fully returned yet.
Thinking of the treasures they contained, Fang Nuo couldn't help but have some thoughts in his mind.
The ancient sorcerer started the road to slaying gods before he rose up smoothly. Now that his future is uncertain, these gods may bring him surprises.
In the past six months, Fang Nuo has collected a lot of strange phenomena. Most of them are monsters wandering in deep space. However, there are no longer existences that can communicate with each other like the Spottitan Snake Man.
For these monsters, Fang Nuo named them [Old God Remains], or [Old Slough]. They have the nature and prototype of gods, but they are not complete. The small amount of collapsed divinity contained in them is their source of life.<
