Chapter 69: Underground City in Frozen Land

This should be a natural cave because there are many naturally formed rock protrusions. In some ravines, some guards with white hair can be vaguely seen.

Aisha found genetic data about those yak-like creatures in the resistance base. Part of their genes came from yaks. The genes of yaks living in the snow-capped mountains of the plateau gave these creatures strong cold resistance.

At the same time, their hair not only serves as protective color, but also has strong windproof and warmth-keeping capabilities.

However, as they gradually went deeper, there were many traces of artificial creation. Soon, they came to an intersection. There were many passages here, and they didn't know where they led.

The leader looked at the leader of the group of white-haired people.

"Zangzi, go inform the leaders of the other gathering areas and ask them to gather in the square, saying that I have something important to announce.

By the way, let’s accommodate these friends from Paradise and take the human bodies of gods around this snowy city.”

The man named Zangzi wears the same white yak hair as his surroundings, and wears a bone yak mask on his head. This is what distinguishes him from the others, indicating that he should be a leader.

"Yes!" Zangzi responded.

Then, he looked at the other people behind him and said, "Please follow me."

After saying that, he walked into the cave on the left. Einstein and the others looked at each other and then walked in.

The cave is very spacious and should have been widened based on the original one.

"This was originally the place where the Guide and its tribe lived. Later, our ancestors, the first group of abandoned people, came here and built this place together with the Guides.

At first, it could only house a few hundred people, but as we dug bigger and bigger, the cave became more and more complex, and it was easy to get lost without our guidance.

Although the wind and snow on the surface hinder human survival, it also makes the geology stronger and will not collapse due to our excavation."

Zangzi spoke up and began to introduce this underground city to them.

As they gradually went deeper, the originally dark tunnel changed slightly, and some green fluorescence actually appeared on the surrounding melted walls.

The light was very weak, but it provided them with light to move forward. When they looked carefully, they found that they were unknown plants that were glowing one by one.

"These glowing things are only found here, and they are also our main food. We call them Yingmi." Zangzi introduced.

.....

"Orichalcum sent back scan data."

Enter Fenrir, Mercury said to Xialian, "This is a fungus-like plant."

"In other words, this is a kind of mushroom?"

Xia Lian looked at the green-lighting thing with a slightly excited expression. It looked much more powerful than the red umbrella with its white pole.

"This thing...can it be eaten?"

"According to the scan data, it's OK." Mercury said, "The premise is that it is cooked well. High temperature can kill the luminescent substances. There is mushroom polysaccharide in it, which can be regarded as a stable way to supplement protein."

Xia Lian nodded, and then he continued to ask Einstein through the communication system.

"Professor, how many people are there in total?"

.....

Einstein came back to his senses and asked Zangzi, "How many of you are there in total?"

Zangzi thought for a moment and replied respectfully to Einstein, "We haven't calculated the exact number, but there should be more than 10 million people."

Einstein raised his eyes slightly in surprise. This was far more than he and Xia Lian had expected.

"Do you only live on these rice plants?"

"Of course not, you will get sick if you only eat fluorescent rice." Zangzi said, "We also have a breeding farm underground, where we raise some tooth rats. They grow very fast and give birth to a lot. The key is

, you can feed it with fluorescent rice.

Fluorescent rice can grow in large quantities in the excrement, enough for us to eat and feed rats and termites.

There are also the tribesmen of the leader. They will give us their milk and hair as warm clothes. At the same time, they will also share food with us from the tribesmen who have died of old age or illness.

At the same time, our tribesmen who died naturally will also be distributed to them."

Einstein nodded. He didn't think there was any problem with this. In other words, it was remarkable that he could maintain such a balance in such a difficult environment.

Rather than abandoning the elderly, using the bodies of naturally deceased animals to raise other animals that are extremely important to them is a very natural and healthy cycle.

.....

Xia Lian in Fenrir also nodded, "There are vegetables, meat protein and milk protein supplements, and those tooth rats can supplement them with trace elements. It seems that the people here are living a pretty good life."

"Your Highness, look."

Following Aisha's voice, Xia Lian once again turned his attention to the screen.

Einstein was going deeper and deeper into this tunnel, and finally reached the end of the tunnel.

This underground city is gradually revealed to everyone.

It was an emptiness that was hard to see to the end. They should have hollowed out the entire snow mountain. The surrounding cliffs and the ground were covered with luminous mushrooms, and the entire space was relatively bright.

Countless wooden houses with domed roofs are connected by wooden walkways and stairs. People walk among them. Although life is hard, the walkways are very clean. Under the reflection of the fluorescent rice, it has become a huge and prosperous underground city.

.

Although there are no plants in this frozen soil, these people are all human beings who possess the divine factor gene. Although the quantity is not as high as that of the people in the Paradise, they still have some fifth element in their bodies.

And these wooden buildings are all embodied by them using the fifth element.

Because they stay underground all year round without sunlight, their skin is very pale, like vampires.

Some children and young people have more or less twisted or deformed legs and backs, which is rickets.

When people are basking in the sun, the ultraviolet rays in the sun usually promote the body's synthesis of vitamin D by irradiating the skin, further promoting the body's absorption of calcium.

If you stay out of the sun for a long time, the calcium in your body cannot be effectively absorbed, resulting in calcium deficiency, which may lead to osteoporosis, even rickets, rickets and other conditions.

It's relatively warm here, and some young people don't have those white hairs on them. They look extremely thin, with sunken cheeks and very weak.

It seems that even with such a rich diet, the land that is too barren still cannot provide enough food for everyone.

These people have completely lost their human appearance and look more like legendary goblins.

But both Einstein and other scientists knew that these were all human beings.

However, fate destroyed them into what they are now.

They were an experiment by the Creator, and the Creator who created them has long since passed away, and they have been forgotten by people.

But at this moment, a new creator took over their destiny.

Xia Lian slowly stood up and walked towards the opened portal.

"Where are you going?" Mercury asked.

"Go and pick the next life." Xia Lian looked at Mercury and smiled, "After all, I never like to brag."
