Just a few hours is far from enough for the strong shells of "bread crabs" and "peregrine falcons" to be eroded.

The exploration team members quickly repaired dozens of thinking tanks and drones, and "released" them to expand the scanning and mapping range in circles.

Even though they sensed extremely strong spiritual magnetic interference at the edge of the sinkhole, when they reached the depths of the sinkhole, the spiritual magnetic environment was quite stable, like the calm in the eye of a storm.

If you think about it carefully, this is reasonable - it is impossible for the monster mastermind to build the ultimate lair of the entire civilization in a place with extremely strong spiritual magnetic interference.

If there were strong interference and radiation all the time, not even monsters would be able to survive.

But there are no monsters here.

To be more precise, except for small monsters such as snakes, insects, rats, and ants that do not pose a threat to humans, and the "gurgling" bubbling mud, there are no "nightmare beasts" in the dark jungle deep in the sinkhole.

The shadow of the beast of hell and the beast of doom.

Perhaps it was the fog above the head and the crisscrossing vines that blocked most of the sunlight. The bottom of the sinkhole looked lifeless, with no living giant monsters or traces of beast tides.

The "Bread Crab" and "Peregrine Falcon" scanned and mapped for six hours, covering almost every corner of the sinkhole, but they never encountered any obstacles.

"really weird."

Recalling the brutal decisive battle between the Dragon City Civilization and the Monster Civilization in his previous life, Meng Chao couldn't help but frown, "The Monster Civilization just sat there and waited for death, allowing us to drive straight in near their lair, gallop around, and touch every flower and grass.

Is it clear?"

"Perhaps, the monster civilization has collapsed long ago, and the monster mastermind has already escaped."

Long Feijun guessed, "As early as half a year ago, we wiped out the main force of the monster civilization on the outskirts of Dragon City, and in the next half year we hunted down the remnants of the beast tide all over the mountains and plains. If these beasts really have wisdom no less than that of humans,

You should know that their poor 'civilization' is gone, right?

"There is no point in resisting. If you don't want to surrender, you can only choose to run away.

"Anyway, the alien world is so big. In addition to the Monster Mountain Range, there should be other deep mountains and old forests that can allow them to survive.

"The only 'wisdom tree' left to deal with us is just bluffing, pretending, and confusing our minds."

This is true.

If the monster mastermind really understands the essence of human civilization, he should understand the principle of "leaving green mountains without fear of running out of firewood".

Escape is its best survival strategy.

There is no need to stay in the Monster Mountains and fight to the death with the people on Earth.

According to such optimistic estimates, the Dragon City Civilization will soon occupy the ultimate lair of the Monster Civilization without any bloodshed and end this damn war.

Although he did not believe in any gods, Meng Chao still prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the war would go so smoothly.

At this moment, news came from several "Bread Crab" and "Peregrine Falcon" at the same time.

They scanned the ruins of human towns.

"This is... the real Taoyuan Town!"

An hour later, Meng Chao, Lu Siya, Long Feijun and other exploration team members came to the southwest of the tiankeng, next to a dry swamp.

They saw the corpses of a town.

Collapsed buildings are like rotting flesh and blood, rusty steel bars are like broken bones, shattered and overturned roads are like dried up blood vessels, and vehicle wreckage that has long been turned into scrap metal has been swallowed up by the roots of swamps and spiritual plants, becoming

Solidified in the jungle, the last traces of civilization.

There are no magnificent trees, seas of colorful flowers, streams filled with fallen flowers and red leaves, or people who are well fed and carefree all day long.

There are no hideous undead creatures or zombies that linger forever.

There are only ruins that look like tombstones that have been in disrepair for a long time, and are covered with branches and vines, quietly telling the story of the demise of civilization.

"Carry out a comprehensive exploration of the town to see if we can find survivors or production materials useful to Dragon City." Long Feijun gave the order.

Hundreds of exploration team members acted together and quickly turned over the ruins of the shattered town.

But I didn't find any survivors or much worth recycling.

Only some fragmented human skeletons were found.

The entire town seemed to have been chewed up by a gigantic monster with hundreds of rows of teeth in its bloody mouth. All the beautiful and valuable things were ground to pieces and annihilated.

Only the numerous scars on these skeletons are left, telling the exploration team members what kind of hardships and pain Taoyuan Town has experienced.

The scars on one of the skulls caught the attention of the exploration team members.

Including Meng Chao, the exploration team has many sharpshooters, and everyone can see that this is a wound that can only be made by shooting at close range with a firearm.

As for monsters, it is obviously impossible to shoot humans in the head with a gun.

For a moment, everyone fell into silence.

The speculation that had been lingering in everyone's mind since they regained consciousness, but everyone had a tacit understanding and did not want to say it out loud, finally could not hide it.

Could it be that the alien beast "Wisdom Tree" did not lie, and was Taoyuan Town really destroyed by human infighting, not just the invasion of monsters?

Even what it said about "the destruction of the earth" is true. Was the civilization on the home planet really destroyed by a full-scale nuclear war?

Human beings who have traveled to other worlds all rely on their longing for and even belief in their home planet to maintain the laws, morals and social structure of the earth era with difficulty.

Powerful people in the divine realm have the power to command wind and rain, slay tigers and dragons, and soar above the nine heavens. Through the super enterprises they have established, they can mobilize astronomical amounts of resources every minute.

The descendants of infected people living in slums suffer from congenital diseases, poverty, and weakness. They can only rely on synthetic food made from monster scraps to survive.

The two are worlds apart.

They don't even look like the same species.

Only their status as "Earthlings" gives them at least superficial and theoretical equal rights.

If the earth's civilization on the mother planet has disappeared, are these people who have never set foot on the blue planet still considered "earth people"?

If they are not Earthlings, do they still need to follow the morals, laws and social patterns of the Earth Age?

If they no longer need to follow the morals and laws of the Earth Age, what kind of morals and laws should they follow, and what will their social form look like?

To the end——

"Will Dragon City be destroyed like Taoyuan Town?"

This question is like being engraved on the hardest granite, hitting heavily on the cerebral cortex of every exploration team member.

"Dragon City will not follow in the footsteps of Taoyuan Town."

"Train Cannon" Long Feijun broke the silence. He said with bright eyes and a determined expression, "Many times, size itself is a huge advantage.

"Dragon City is dozens of times larger than Taoyuan Town, which means we have enough space and time to explore different paths, bear the cost of making mistakes, withstand attacks from powerful enemies, and recover from the most serious injuries.

"What's more, with the lessons learned from Taoyuan Town, I think everyone will seriously think about what kind of path the new Dragon City civilization should take.

"Earth's civilization has not perished.

"Because we, the earthlings, are still here.

"Even if our home planet is really destroyed, as long as we humans on earth are not extinct, we will definitely be able to rebuild a new earth civilization on this brand new planet!"

"Yes, that's it!"

"We are earthlings. Wherever we go, we can build a new earth!"

"What's more, the so-called 'earth destruction' is just one-sided words from the enemy. Even if Taoyuan Town is really destroyed, it doesn't mean anything - the size of Dragon City is dozens of times larger than Taoyuan Town, and the size of the entire earth's civilization.

It’s even thousands of times bigger than Dragon City!”

The eyes of the exploration team members shone one after another.

They firmly believed in Long Feijun's words.

Like a drowning man clinging to the last straw.

Long Feijun ordered everyone to collect all human skeletons in Taoyuan Town.

We also found many skeletons with bullet holes or marks from swords.

Of course, more skeletons still have traces of tearing by monster claws and corrosion by acid and venom, proving that these humans were vigorously sacrificed in the battle with monsters for living space.

Time was limited and they had no time to sort the bones one by one.

We can only dig a big pit in a relatively dry place with higher terrain outside Taoyuan Town, and bury the bones of all the compatriots first, and then make plans after the Dragon City army really captures the Kirigakure.

Perhaps, the owners of some of the skeletons were dedicated warriors who fought bravely and fearlessly against monsters until the very last moment.

Perhaps, the owners of some of the skeletons were mothers who were powerless, but faced the harsh environment and ferocious monsters, but still opened their arms to protect her children until the last breath.

Perhaps, the owners of some of the skeletons were despicable "violent rats" who would do anything to survive and trample on all the bottom lines of human nature.

Perhaps, the owners of some skeletons have been transformed into extremely vicious humanoid beasts by the erosion of other worlds, and they did not hesitate to raise the butcher knife against their former compatriots.

But now, they are all buried together, and no one knows their names. If a tombstone must be erected, only two words can be engraved on it:

"Humanity".

After twelve hours of exploring the sinkhole, they finally reached the edge of the sinkhole.

Although the sinkhole is deep, the rock wall leading to the ground has a certain curvature and is covered with vines, branches, ivy and other plants.

Stimulating the magnetic field of life and resisting the interference of spiritual magnetism, the powerful people in the heavenly realm climbed back to the ground without much effort.

On the ground, the half-built camp was not destroyed.

The communication equipment inside kept making beep, beep, beep beep sounds.
