Chapter 1 We have to believe in science(1/2)
"Father, I brought the tribesmen here..."
Sophia led the gathered male tribesmen in their prime, passing through the solar system through the Immortal Legion passage hidden under the observatory in the village.
Finally, he entered the scope of the Legend City from the cracks in the underground glacier.
Immediately afterwards, she saw her father standing on the edge of the steep ice cliff at the exit of the ancient passage in front of her, and there was another person standing next to him.
As his heart tightened, the woman with long brown braids quickly walked over.
"Sofia, you're here."
Jacob turned around and looked at his daughter, and then looked at the tribesmen who walked out of the ancient passages under the ice.
"Have all the tribesmen brought them here?"
"No, just as you told me, I gathered all the adult tribes in the valley and brought them over, but the tribes in the ruins such as the Acropolis have not yet been notified."
Sophia nodded vigorously, then subconsciously looked at the person beside her father, and then she happened to meet a pair of clear and clear black eyes.
"There are women, the elderly and the children, and they mainly stayed to take care of the previous wounded..."
She felt a sudden shock, and quickly lowered her head, and her voice subconsciously became smaller. She actually felt a burst of panic, as if she suddenly felt a palpitation from the heart.
"Is that so? You're doing a good job, so next - we're going to settle in this city that belongs to us. Are you mentally prepared?"
Jacob couldn't help but smile, then stretched out his broad palms lovingly, gently stroked his daughter's hair, and asked in a harmonious voice.
"Stay in...this city? Kit City?"
Sophia was slightly stunned, and she turned to look down.
In the ancient city with the ice sank below, there were stone walls and towers surrounding various stone or wood-made buildings, layer by layer, neatly planned, and lined up.
There are bell towers, beacon towers and even huge stone catapults everywhere, and many key places are also covered with stone-built ditches as drainage systems. Moreover, in this strange environment where breathing turns into fog and dripping turns into ice, it is actually playing its role as it should...
It can be said that the layout rules are strict and the functional partitions are clear.
The road system is also regular and straight, presenting a square grid-like shape, and the outline of the entire ancient city is also close to square.
Overall, this ancient city is really good, but this cannot change the fact that it is an ancient city...
Sophia and the survivors behind her are actually not picky, otherwise they would not be survivors.
Their living conditions have never been very good, and they can be considered difficult.
After all, geothermal valleys are not hidden places, and their villages are not low-key, luxurious and connotative, with luxury villas connected to large areas of high-end gardens.
Most people live in simple earthen houses, and even in ruins such as ancient towers. They are windy and leaky, rainy and water leaking, keep warm in summer and dissipate heat in winter, and even see the rising sun from the cracks in the wall every morning...
In some particularly difficult stages, many daily necessities are not sufficient, and eating is a problem, so you can only endure hunger... No, it is a meal and dew.
Thinking about it this way, it is like a god.
But this is impossible to compare! As the name suggests, geothermal valleys are geothermal. In some places, there are even natural hot springs. They can withstand the outside cold and ice that cannot survive at all within the valley.
Why did they take the initiative to give up that unique and good place and move into this lost city that sank a hundred meters below the glacier?
...Is this going to take the initiative to seek death?
"And doesn't this city belong to the Immortal Legion? Anyone who enters here will be attacked, father?" Sophia's expression seemed a little stiff.
"Now the Immortal Legion has disappeared. Have you not noticed that the whole city is quiet?" Jacob shook his head.
"But, but..."
Sophia searched hard for other questions, and wanted to deny this thing that sounded stupid. Even if her father really had reason, she had to convince her first.
"Oh, by the way, didn't the ice layer explode before Holy Trinity and attack the ancient city? This must have caused great damage, right?"
What she said is not unreasonable. Looking down from the Bairen ice wall here, you can also see that many places in the ancient city below have been destroyed, and some places are even emitting black smoke and a slight light of fire.
"So that's one of the things we have to do. Since it's destroyed, we have to repair it and get it intact..."
Jacob exhales slightly and explains seriously.
"Sophia, I know what you are worried about, but trust me, I will not lead everyone to make stupid choices, and I am not going to give up on the geothermal valley."
"But...well, I get it, father."
Originally, he wanted to say something, but when Sophia thought about it, she felt that her father could not have suddenly gotten his mind. He could not have thought of anything he could even think of.
——So she finally nodded, signaling that she understood and did not continue to argue.
"Actually, there is no need to worry too much. I have all awakened the bodies of the Holy Trinity soldiers. I will leave all the rough and tiring tasks to them..."
Mo Chen touched his chin and looked at the remaining people who were standing silently in the distance and did not come, and then suddenly said this.
"Although I don't have any wisdom, I can't compare to the real undead like the Immortal Legion, they can still understand the simple commands... You're welcome, just use them as consumables."
Yes, when they are no longer needed, they can still be ordered to deal with themselves.
For example, they jumped into the crematorium in line.
"Uh, what...what does this mean?" Sophia was a little stunned. She didn't know who this person was, and she didn't understand what the other party was saying.
"Is this your daughter?" Mo Chen did not explain to her, but turned to Jacob, and asked with a meaningful smile on his lips.
“…”
“…”
Jacob didn't reply, but just smiled awkwardly, but seeing his smile was enough to make people understand what he meant.
"Okay, but when did it come?"
"It was about twenty years ago. I had never used other methods. Sophia is indeed a girl of this age. She has grown up so big..."
Jacob understood the other party’s question and replied.
"Is that so? You can still have children, then you are really... Tsk tsk, it's not me that you said you, Jacob, you are afraid that you will use up all your luck in the future."
Mo Chen used the reason his mother liked to clear her responsibilities the most, indicating that she was not talking about the other party, and the reason why she continued to talk was entirely because of the ghost's "I'm not talking about you"...
Then he pointed at Jacob without any shame.
The stronger the life, the longer the life, the more difficult it is to breed normal direct descendants through natural means... Even gods cannot force themselves, and forcing them to go against the will of heaven is only more likely to give birth to evil.
As an eternal prophet, Jacob was able to see the end of his normal life span, and even humanoids who could not see the end of his life... So what Mo Chen said was not unreasonable.
"I actually think so, or because of this reason, there has never been any problem before..."
Jacob nodded extremely tiredly and sighed heavily, as if he agreed with the other party's words. He also felt that perhaps his bad luck had dragged down the tribe members.
"In recent decades, it has always been unexpected, first from the Soviets, then the Holy Trinity..."
"Huh? Cough, I'm just talking casually, don't be serious!"
Seeing this, Mo Chen raised his eyebrows and immediately coughed lightly. This guy is an important and capable man he has chosen. What if he loses his fighting spirit like this?
"The saying of luck is illusory. How can we believe in such a thing? We must believe in science..."
“…”
“…”
"A being like you... actually came to tell me that you want to believe in science?"
Even with Jacob's cunning and ancient wisdom accumulated over the years, he was a little amused and crying for a moment.
And this guy just said a minute ago that he had awakened the bodies of the Holy Trinity soldiers and turned them into the dead, right?
Mo Chen pulled the corner of his mouth, then took a decisive step back, and his figure turned into a bitter cold wind, leaving only one sentence-
"Forget it, just remember your responsibilities anyway! I still have things to deal with, so you can make your own decisions about these things..."
"ah--!!"
Sophia immediately widened her eyes and subconsciously reached out to cover her mouth. She watched the man step back towards the bottom of the cliff behind her in one step.
She was about to fall down directly, and the ground was covered with falling, so she naturally couldn't help but scream.
But I didn't expect that the man's figure turned into Qianfeng, as if he had suddenly been given a special stunt... But this is not a cinema, and it happened in front of him so naturally?!
She subconsciously turned her head back and found that the compatriots behind her were also staring at each other, and she could not come back to her senses for a while... From this we can see that it seemed that she was not dreaming or having hallucinations just now.
Of course, it is also possible that her dreams are still developing, and the same is true for hallucinations.
"Father, what's going on? He is...what is he...no, who is he?"
When he turned around and found that his father's expression seemed to be accustomed to it, Sophia quickly subconsciously asked.
"Who is he? Sophia, you should be able to think of it..." Jacob sighed and began to explain.
Some things must not be hidden from the future. In the past, it was not revealed that they were for the benefit of the tribe members, but now they have to be directly involved in the ancient agreement and cannot continue to hide from them.
...
...
Geothermal valley.
Somewhere up the tower.
Appearing directly on it in an incredible way, Mo Chen took advantage of the height to overlook the remnants' village below and the entire geothermal valley, imprinting all the scenery into his heart—
To be continued...
