The world had changed. There were thick clouds in the sky, and water vapor was everywhere. The surrounding temperature was above 40 degrees Celsius on average.
The surface of the sea was filled with cooked fish and prawns. The entire sea had turned into a pot of salted fish soup, and the air was filled with a salty smell.
Wei Huo checked the map and realized that he was in the sea between the Western Continent and the Southern Continent. This was the center of the Earth Core's energy explosion. The Western Continent and the Southern Continent might have been affected the most. The Northern Continent and the Eastern Continent were in a better situation because they were far apart.
The character Wei Huo was controlling had already told Ma Tengyun and the others what had happened in the underwater world. At the same time, the situation there was also feedback.
Wei Huo said, "The situation in the Western Continent is very bad. The continent is completely submerged. The temperature is over 100 degrees Celsius. Many people died because of this."
At that moment, heavy rain was pouring down. Water vapor formed thick clouds in the sky and turned into raindrops. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky from time to time, and a few tornadoes appeared on the surface of the sea.
Xiao Liang frowned. "Do we … only have 55 years?"
In 55 years, the entire race would migrate and leave this planet.
Coincidentally, the game system suddenly issued a global announcement.
A global quest has been issued to all players: Escape.
Time: 55 years.
Objective: Escape from this planet and survive.
It seemed like not only humans, but even players were leaving. This was a plan that the Atlanteans had been planning for thousands of years. They wanted to use the planet's core to kill the gluttonous snake.
Although they had failed temporarily, the end of the world would still arrive in 55 years. This seemed like an unsolvable problem.
Wei Huo and the others started rushing toward the Southern Continent. On the way, they passed by an island. This island was where Wei Huo had intercepted all the fear and despair in the Great Escape scenario. There was also a small group of natives of the Southern Continent there.
Wei Huo and the others saw an energy shield from afar. The shield blocked everything, including the rain. It seemed like they had relied on this thing to block the aftermath of many disasters.
The golden armor's eyes were the most vicious. It said, "That's a large-scale energy shield. As long as the energy is not exhausted, the shield will not break."
Wei Huo and the others landed outside the shield. There were many cracks on the shield, but it was still strong. Everyone was curious. Where did they get this shield? How could it be so advanced?
Wei Huo's golden eyes saw through everything. He sighed. "There are only some children left inside. The oldest is only 16 years old."
Everyone was stunned. They were very puzzled. "What about their master? With this level of protective barrier, Milord should be fine! "
Wei Huo shook his head. "You'll understand soon."
After saying that, Wei Huo touched the protective shield. Then, the protective shield shattered like a bubble and disappeared. They walked in. Suddenly, a group of teenagers rushed out with guns in their hands.
As they charged, they shouted, "Go to hell!"
Only Wei Huo and Lu Qiqi understood their language. The others did not understand because they did not have a translator. They only knew that the group was still yelling and shooting at them.
However, their shooting skills were not high. It was difficult for them to even carry the heavy guns. The bullets were bounced off by the domain. They could not hurt Wei Huo and the others at all.
Wei Huo said, "Don't panic. We're not enemies."
A boy shouted, "You're demons! You killed my parents!"
The children had never heard of the people of the Northern Continent. In their opinion, as long as someone's skin color was different from theirs, they were not of the same race!
"Stop! Heitar! " At that moment, a voice came from outside the protective shield. It was a black man covered in blood. He was holding a walking stick and looked very weak.
However, Wei Huo knew this person. He was the black captain from before.
"Uncle Modine!" the group of children exclaimed. "You're still alive!"
Modin arrived in front of Wei Huo and bowed deeply. He then told the children, "Don't be rude. They are our saviors. Where are the adults in our home?" Wei Huo nodded and said, "That's right.
After Modine asked that question, the children in the home fell silent. Some of the younger children started crying. Their tears could not stop falling. Even the eyes of the older children were red.
Modine suddenly thought of something and asked, "Could it be … Could it be that they …"
Modine immediately rushed into the home. Wei Huo and the others followed closely behind. Then, they saw a huge electric tower. Around the electric tower were five huge glass jars filled with yellow liquid. There was only a little yellow liquid left in the glass jars.
Bubbles kept coming out of the glass jars, and the electric tower kept producing electricity from afar to supply the equipment in the home.
However, Lu Qiqi, the golden armor, and the others were stunned when they saw the huge power supply equipment. They finally knew what had happened. After all, there were many human soul fragments lingering around the electric tower.
The golden armor said in shock, "Is … Is this a device that can convert souls into energy?"
Modine lowered his head and sighed. "Yes, but we usually use living animals. We've never used living people. This time, the adults in the home must be protecting these children, so …"
A device that could convert souls into energy was simply unimaginable. However, such unimaginable things existed in this world.
Wei Huo and the others finally understood why the protective shield could last so long. It was because the adults in the home had sacrificed themselves. They had used their souls to convert a large amount of energy and kept providing the protective shield with its functions. They had also resisted the aftershocks of the disaster.
Wei Huo suddenly said, "Would an Atlantean do this?"
Lu Qiqi said, "There are indeed not many Atlantean children in the underwater world. They should have … been moved away."
Wei Huo nodded. "It seems like any race would do this. The continuation of the race has been engraved in the genes of every individual. Although we have escaped this calamity, we still have more important things to do." Wei Huo nodded.
The entire race had migrated, and all the humans on Earth had been migrated in these 55 years!
Coincidentally, a few huge fireballs suddenly appeared in the sky. The fireballs slid down from the sky and smashed into the Southern Continent.
The golden armor asked, "Are they Zergs?"
