Stars fall.

For some reason, when Xu Ling heard these four words, he felt that all the hairs on his back stood up.

Zhu Talan smiled: "That's right, just like you thought. On January 1, 122 years ago, all the artificial satellites in the world suddenly disconnected from the ground, and then fell from orbit one by one, without any spared."

"Why?" Xu Ling felt his mouth and throat a little dry and his voice became hoarse.

He imagined that the satellite dragged its tail flames from the sky and smashed into cities, forests, oceans, and peaks like hellfire. That kind of scene should be comparable to the doomsday.

Moreover, this matter is too strange. You must know that even the strongest warrior in the world cannot punch the artificial satellite in low-Earth orbit. Xu Ling was very curious about what exactly caused such a strange phenomenon.

However, Zhu Talan narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly: "I don't know the reason. To this day, the top physicists in the country have been studying for a hundred years, but no one can tell what happened. Maybe your generation is not clear. A hundred years ago, there was another means of transportation called an airplane."

"It's a pity that after the 00th year of the New Yuan, no one can take off. No, it should be said that nothing driven by artificial energy can fly in the sky, and the reason is also unknown."

Xu Ling was stunned again.

Not only is he very familiar with the plane, but he has also been on it personally. I didn't expect that the people on this world line are so miserable that they don't even have to take the plane.

He finally realized that no wonder he had always thought something strange before, but he couldn't say it. It turned out that in the six months after the world line changed, he had never heard the sound of a plane passing over the city.

Zhu Talan returned to his previous careless tone: "Looking at how you look, it seems like you have traveled from another world, why don't you know anything."

Xu Ling smiled embarrassedly. In a sense, he guessed it right.

"That...how about other countries you just mentioned?"

"They are the same, and I tell you that when the demonization first started, the situation was not that bad. It was just that monsters appeared in the city and the suburbs, causing damage everywhere. It took our country half a year to completely suppress them."

"But other countries are in trouble. Most of them react very slowly. Some small countries are unable to resist at all. The beast tide gradually goes out of control on their side, and one country after another loses contact. In the end, the borders become dark outside."

Xu Ling felt a little uneasy. A hundred years ago, the whole world was in turmoil. Perhaps there were other countries outside the country, but they were broken off due to the damage of the undersea optical cables by monsters. But perhaps, the Xia Kingdom has become the last human civilization in the world.

"Then, what about the reason for the demonization? Don't you know? Did you provide any clues before other countries lost contact?"

Zhu Talan smiled and said, "In the two or three years when they were missing one after another, other countries have given some information, but it is a secret and cannot be told to you."

Xu Ling curled his lips and whispered: "Speak as if you know."

"Hey, I really know, after all, I am a master with a force index of more than 11."

Zhu Talan leaned back with a tactical attitude and said proudly.

"Come on, don't you know the value of the force index 11? Just talk about the head of the Qingrong Luo family, it is rumored that he is only about nine o'clock, but he is already the top level in Xijiang Province."

Zhu Talan nodded seriously: "I know, Luo Qianqiu. I often beat him when I was a child. This person is so good at pretending."

"Ah yes yes yes."

Xu Ling was too lazy to talk nonsense to him, so he chose to obey directly, and didn't know who was so capable of pretending.

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Zhu Talan didn't say much, and instead talked about something else.

"Have you heard a rumor that overseas investigation teams are going to recruit people?"

"I heard it."

"As a martial arts school student, what do you think? If your level meets the standards, are you willing to go?"

Xu Ling didn't want to talk to the person he had just met for an hour, so he casually said: "It depends on the situation. If their boss personally invites me... then you can consider it."

Zhu Talan's expression suddenly seemed to have eaten shit: "...Okay, I'll pay special attention to the graduation situation in Qingrong City at that time to see how capable you are."

Xu Ling shrugged: "Look at you."

Three hours later, the high-speed train that almost crossed the entire Xijiang Province arrived at the station, and the two of them got off together.

"Wuhu!!"

Zhu Talan seemed very excited and cheered as soon as he left the station, "Jingxue City, I'm back!"

Xu Ling looked at him speechlessly: "Brother, where are you going?"

"I? I want to go to the border to see you, where are you?" Zhu Talan said casually.

Although Xu Ling was calling out for the other party’s questions, he was still adhering to the principle of being guarded against others when he was away. He did not reveal that he was going abroad to Taojing, so he only said that he would go around nearby attractions.

Zhu Talan didn't care, and waved his hand and said, "Then I'll see you again if you're destined to be there."

"Okay, goodbye."

Xu Ling also said goodbye, opened the mobile phone map without navigation and looked at it, and decided to take a taxi to the bus station.

Jingxue City is a county-level city closest to the border outpost, but it is not the last supply point. Not far from the outpost, there is a small town, where Taojingers gather.

He came to the ticket window of Jingxue City Bus Station.

"Trouble, Yong'an Town, one way, one."

The aunt behind the window looked up at him, hesitated for a moment and said, "Thirty-eight, young man, be careful, the border is uneasy."

She said that, but she didn't stop and quickly stamped the ticket.

"Thank you."

Xu Ling smiled at her and got on the train with the ticket.

Since the minibus drove out of the city, the road conditions began to get worse and worse. Xu Ling was so upset that he couldn't sleep for a while, so he had to look at the people in the car quietly.

Everyone was wearing clothes that were convenient for sports, carrying bulging luggage, and their eyes were very alert.

Obviously, these people probably went to the border to Taojing, and most of them were warriors.

Xu Ling suddenly felt nervous. Before he set out, he actually had no feelings about this matter. He only felt that with his 2.08 force index and actual combat power far exceeding this value, even if he couldn't make money, he should be able to ensure his own safety.

But when I saw the free warriors in society, I realized that they were serious now.

However, he did not feel like retreating. Since he had embarked on the path of a warrior, he would have to face these reality sooner or later, and it would be impossible to hide in the ivory tower forever.

...

At the same time, after wandering around the city for a while, Zhu Talan also walked into the bus station and came to the ticket window: "Trouble, Yong'an Town, one way, one."

The aunt behind the window looked up at him: "Thirty-eight."

While stamping, she muttered in a low voice.
