Li Wenxi was lying on the window edge, looking out boredly.

This is indeed the most prosperous city in the human base. The bustling streets and the endless flow of people made her feel slightly in a trance while watching all this.

It's like returning to the city where she was born and raised.

Of course, this is still a city a thousand years from now, and there are still some obvious differences from the bustling cities on Earth a thousand years ago.

For example, the floors of high-rise buildings here are generally much higher than those on the ground.

Every high-rise building here has a height of more than thirty stories.

Thirty floors is relatively short. Most high-rise buildings have around fifty floors, and there are even many high-rise buildings with more than a hundred floors.

You know, buildings several hundred meters high were basically the landmark buildings of a certain city on Earth thousands of years ago, but here they are very common, so common that at a glance, Li Wenxi didn’t even realize how big those buildings were.

high.

This should be related to the underground environment.

I had talked with Xu Ying before and found that the location here is the most suitable location for survival. It is not in a zone of crustal activity and there will be no natural disasters such as earthquakes. The air circulation speed is also gentle and stable, and there will be basically no problems.

Big changes.

This also makes the buildings here to be built very high to maintain the growing population here.

Much like the earth a thousand years ago, humans in cities seem to live in birdcages.

She looked at the two statues again.

Although the statue is located in the most prosperous area of ​​the city center, the buildings around the statue are the shortest in the entire city.

The height of the statue is only a hundred meters, and the surrounding buildings are all lower than the height of the statue, and none of them exceeds thirty floors.

Gradually outward from the statue in the center of the city, the height of the building rises in an obvious step-like manner, reaching its peak about two kilometers away from the statue. The height of the buildings here has almost reached a height of three to four hundred meters.

There are even three buildings reaching 700 or 800 meters!

You know, the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building on earth a thousand years ago, was only this high, and the second tallest building was directly reduced to 500 meters.

There are three buildings of this level in this city, forming a triangle surrounding the two statues.

It feels like some of the highest-ranking people in the city live on these three towers...

Continuing outward from the location of the three tall towers, the height of the building gradually decreases again.

When she arrived near the villa, it was already at the very edge of the city, and most of the buildings here were very low.

Compared with the 30 to 40-story buildings in the city center, most of the buildings here are less than ten stories, and they all look a bit old, and they even have been renovated at first glance.

"Hmm...this is the old city, right?" Li Wenxi looked down at the outside.

Perhaps this is the exact location where humans established their home thousands of years ago, but after thousands of years of development, the city center has moved to the vicinity of the statue a few kilometers away.

In comparison, the location of the villa she was in was a bit special.

From a certain aspect, her villa is very luxurious, and it can be seen at a glance that it is different from other areas.

Even from the perspective of someone who came from a thousand years ago, the layout and appearance of this villa are somewhat retro.

I'm afraid this villa has been built here for a long, long time.

As for why she can see the entire city from a low villa...

That's because this villa is built on high ground.

The entire villa is built on a raised mountain peak. The mountain peak is not high, about one or two hundred meters. It is not as high as many buildings in the city, but it is enough to overlook the entire city from here.

It is said to be a mountain peak. The area of ​​the peak is not small. It is tens of thousands of square meters. It seems that the entire mountain top has been directly flattened.

And on top of this mountain,

There is only this villa, and there is no one else around.

Because the location of the mountain she is on is close to the edge of the city, the buildings are sparse. In addition, the surrounding areas of the mountain are basically old buildings with more than ten floors, several floors, or even low-rise bungalows. There is no such thing as hers.

The mountain peak is high, so her position becomes the highest point around.

"What the hell is this place?"

Li Wenxi went back to bed and lay down a little bored, looking at the chandelier on the ceiling and murmuring: "I really want to go out and have a look, I really want to communicate with the humans here..."

What kind of personality would a person have who has never seen the sun in his life?

Do they really not yearn for the sunshine?

However, what happened just now, she didn't dare to go out until Xu Ying came back.

"Come back quickly..."

Li Wenxi turned over and lay on the bed, burying her head in the soft pillow with a hint of mint fragrance, and said in a low voice: "I think I brought Xu Xin to see it too. He must not know that there is a statue of him here.

..."

"No, no, he has brought Crystal City to the ground, so he should know it..."

"However, seeing it with my own eyes would be even more shocking. I really want to bring everyone here..."

She didn't know how long she had been lying down, but she was about to fall asleep. At this time, a strange noise sounded in the room.

This voice was all too familiar to her.

It’s the condensed sound of the portal!

She immediately turned around and saw a purple-black vortex the size of a person appeared on the wall.

"Back!" Li Wenxi immediately sat up.

A leg immediately stepped out of the purple-black vortex, and then Xu Ying walked out of it.

She frowned, with a puzzled look on her face, and kept mumbling: "Who is it..."

The purple-black vortex behind her also shrank from the wall immediately after she walked out, shrinking into a point, and finally disappeared.

"How's it going? Did you find anything?" Li Wenxi was no longer surprised by this and asked directly.

"Well... I still gained something." Xu Ying walked to the bed and sat down, holding her head, feeling a little headache, "I went to the aristocratic family that my brother and I have always been in contact with to check it out. What should I say?

Well, at least that side can still be trusted."

She still has a trustworthy and reliable organization in this human stronghold.

A large family that controls part of the real power in this underground human stronghold.

This can be said to be one of the legacies Xu Xin left to her. Otherwise, she alone, no matter how strong she is, would not be able to make any waves in this underground human base.

One of her previous plans was to take Li Wenxi there with her, but after what happened just now, she was not at ease.

She was the one who dragged Li Wenxi over. If something happened to Li Wenxi, how would she face Xu Xin in this world!

"...Huh? What do you mean?" Li Wenxi was slightly startled, "You and...your brother are from a family that you have always been in contact with?"

When did Xu Xin interact with people here?

Are you still dating?

"Ah..." Xu Ying realized she had made a mistake, so she laughed and said, "Slip of the tongue, it's because I have a relationship with them."

Can this be a slip of the tongue?

Li Wenxi looked at Xu Ying with some confusion, and then her eyes slowly widened.

"You can't be..." She covered her mouth with a surprised expression on her face.

Li Wenxi is relatively sensitive about Xu Xin's matters. Just now she was still imagining what Xu Xin, who was hundreds of years old, looked like and what his personality was.

Xu Ying's words naturally reminded her directly of Xu Xin.

That Xu Xin has always been in contact with people here. This is a fact.

And the one who can call Xu Xin my brother is...

"Ah? What?" Xu Ying pretended to be stupid, "What's wrong with me?"

But I secretly cried out in my heart: "It's over, it's over, it's known..."

"...

Although I have been convincing myself that the last batch of survivors have been in this world for more than ten years, and it is indeed possible to be so strong, but..." Li Wenxi looked at her suspiciously, "But you are too strong, and you know it is true

There are so many, can the last generation of survivors really know so much?"

"Also, you are used to calling me sister-in-law, and you are very familiar with my various habits..."

His suspicious eyes gradually turned into unbelievable shock.

"I, I..."

Xu Ying had a headache because of what just happened. Seeing that her true identity was discovered, she leaned back in distress and lay down on the bed. She stopped pretending and shouted: "Okay, okay, okay.

I admit, I am indeed that Xu Ying!"

"Ah? Really!" Li Wenxi suddenly opened her eyes in surprise again, stood up suddenly, covered her mouth and looked at her, "You..."

"Hey, you're cheating on me, sister-in-law!" Xu Ying stood up suddenly and said with some dissatisfaction.

"I...I just made a casual guess. I didn't expect you to actually admit it..." Li Wenxi was still immersed in shock.

Now the girl in front of her already has...

More than 1,300 years old?!

So old!

No, no, no...

She should be only over three hundred years old!

The thousand years here were spanned by time travel, and she stayed in each time period for a few days at most. Although the actual time has passed a thousand years, her physical age should not have increased much.

but……

Three hundred years old is an exaggeration!

Three hundred years old!

This was her first time meeting someone over 300 years old!

So...so outrageous!

"...Sister-in-law, what's that look in your eyes..." Xu Ying moved to the other side of the bed with some fear, "As if you want to eat me...ah, what are you doing!"

"Let me touch it and see how the skin of a three hundred year old looks like, as well as the face of a three hundred year old... I'm so curious!" Li Wenxi's eyes lit up, and she rushed over to get started.

"No! Sister-in-law, you can't tell this matter! Especially when my brother comes in the future, you are not allowed to tell him! Otherwise, you will..."

"Don't worry, I won't tell you, but since I already know, you let me see it first!"

"No, no, no, no! Well, let's get down to business. Since I have confirmed that there is no problem there, I will take you to meet them first. Your abilities can be best used there..."

"let me see!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...I am the senior, right..."

…

On the other side, on the ground.

"Are you sure... you described it correctly?" Xu Xin touched her neck and her throat rolled, "Human necks stretch very long, stretching directly in front of their faces..."

Thinking of that scene, he couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

"Is that... really a human being? Or an inhuman monster?"

"...He is a human and a monster. Listen to me."

Shi Wanyun continued to talk about her experience.

When the girl walked in from the door, she felt for the first time the coldness and fear of falling into the abyss.

If there was an extremely ugly monster or other animal in front of her, it would not give her such a sense of fear.

But the human form she was familiar with did something so weird and horrifying that she couldn't even make a sound for a while and could only take a step back subconsciously.

For the first time, her legs felt a little weak due to fear.

This is not a question of whether the opponent is strong or not, but a dimension-reducing blow from the spiritual level.

Is this the uncanny valley effect?

The girl in front of me is definitely a monster!

But she is so human-like, almost exactly like a human being. If she uses a human body to perform such actions, anyone will be mentally shocked!

The girl opposite looked very normal at this time, and even walked towards her very naturally.

Shi Wanyun subconsciously took two steps back again.

Then his legs reached the edge of the bed, his legs softened, and he sat down on the bed.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I scared you." The girl apologized, "I really didn't mean to do it. However, you will get used to it in the future. Every time someone new comes, they will be scared like you. You

Being scared here is a bit of a psychological preparation."

The girl's words and her friendly tone made Shi Wanyun feel a little baffled.

However, the girl's friendly attitude brought her somewhat unstable spirit back to normal. She quietly glanced at the girl's neck, and she was no different from a normal person at this time.

But because she has seen the scene just now, even if the girl is ordinary, she has the image of an evil ghost in her mind.

"Um, are you... human?" she asked cautiously.

Probably not?

Could it be some other species pretending to be human?

...To play with humans?

"You are so rude!" the girl said dissatisfiedly, "Didn't I just scare you? Why am I not a human being? Of course I am a human being!"

Is it human?

The girl looked at her suspiciously: "You can't really come here without knowing anything, can you?"

"...Didn't I just say that I don't even know where this place is." Shi Wanyun explained.

"Really? I thought you were joking..." The girl scratched her hair in annoyance, "Ah, what should I do? Did I bring back a three-person?"

Her head swayed from side to side as she grabbed it, and her neck showed weird arcs that seemed to be broken again and again, making Shi Wanyun's eyelids jump and her teeth clenched.

"...What do you mean by "Three No Personnel"? Shi Wanyun asked softly, "Do you need some proof to come here?"

"Oh, you are a person with no documents, no permission, and no special genes. Since you don't know anything, you must be this kind of person, right?" The girl sighed, "Really, how did you get in?

ah?"

... In other words, given the level of danger in the outside environment, it is indeed impossible for normal people to get close to it.

If she hadn't asked for help from Xu Xin, the strongest person in District 188, she wouldn't have been able to get here.

"Just... forcefully pass through the area outside." Shi Wanyun decided to tell the truth. After all, this was an activity task given by the mysterious voice, and it should be in compliance with the rules here.

"Ah?" The girl was shocked, "You really came from that herd of beasts?! Oh my god...you...are you so strong! I can't even deal with any of those below, but you actually

Able to directly..."

The girl looked at Shi Wanyun and her eyes suddenly turned to respect, with a hint of admiration: "You are really strong..."

"...It's not that strong. I got here by trickery." Shi Wanyun asked softly, "Well, aren't you...a survivor?"

"Survivor?" The girl was slightly startled, "What a nostalgic term. I haven't heard this term for a long time. How many decades has it been? It's so nostalgic...wait a minute!"

The girl suddenly looked at her: "Could it be that...you are a new survivor? A new batch of survivors are here again!"

Shi Wanyun's eyes moved.

The information contained in the conversation just now is already obvious.

She also knew who this girl was.

...Turns out to be the survivors from the previous batches!

She unexpectedly met the survivors from the previous batches!

He is a pioneer in surviving in this world!

This lifted her spirits.

It seems that she can know some secrets about the world again!

but……

The girl in front of her stretched her neck out of surprise. Her neck once again showed an incredible length. Her head poked over and shook slightly in front of Shi Wanyun's eyes.

His expression is quite normal, like that of a curious baby.

It's really... extremely inconsistent.
