At first, Xu Shenxing only came to this world to take Yi Qing and the rest on vacation. Otherwise, he would not have brought along Song Yu, who had no combat power.
But unexpectedly, in just half a year (almost three years for the people of this world), this world had inexplicably reached the point of doomsday …
"I see. So that's what happened."
After listening to Yi Qing's story on the River Moon, Xu Shenxing nodded with his chin propped on his hand. "Speaking of which, what about Finn and Eleena? Didn't they take any measures to deal with this? "
"In the early days of the cataclysm, after realizing that we can't kill the Spirit of Chaos, Mr. Finn and Mrs. Eleena began to prepare for the sanctuary city plan. More than half of the existing sanctuary cities in the world are the result of that plan, including Clearwater City, which we are going to next. "
Yi Qing showed a look of admiration at first, but then his expression dimmed. "But after the sanctuary city stabilized, about three months ago, Mr. Finn and his wife set off to the place where the meteorite fell to investigate the cause of the cataclysm … and never came back."
Yi Qing did not continue, but Xu Shenxing and the rest could probably guess that Mr. Finn and his wife had met with misfortune.
Finn and the rest were not wrong. In the current situation, doing nothing would only allow them to survive for a while. Only by solving the source of the cataclysm could they completely resolve the crisis. Unfortunately, the danger of this trip was obviously beyond their expectations.
Xu Shenxing could not help but fall silent.
Even if Finn was only his temporary teammate in this world, he was still one of the few friends he had. Naturally, Xu Shenxing was not happy about losing contact with him for no reason.
And even though it was not a big deal, Finn was still the world's appointed Hero, and Eleena was a former Demon King from the Great Demonic Realm. Even if they escaped from this world, they could still be considered as Heroes. Yet, they had met with such inexplicable failure …
This made Xu Shenxing a little alarmed. It seemed that the omen of the apocalypse was more dangerous than he had expected.
"But it's good that you are here, Mr. Hero. I really can't handle it alone." Probably to ease the suddenly heavy atmosphere, Yi Qing made a face of great pressure.
This wasn't all flattery, but Yi Qing's true thoughts.
When he first transmigrated to this world, although he was directly involved in the Great War between Humans and Demons, at that time, there were still many powerhouses on the human side, and the leadership of the human side was quite complete. As a Hero, Yi Qing mostly acted according to the plan, and as a role model for the human side, he did not need to think too much and did not feel too much pressure.
However, after the start of the Cataclysm, both the humans and the demons who were capable of shouldering great responsibilities fell one after another. The elites also died in large numbers due to the indiscriminate attacks of the Spirits of Chaos at the beginning. As a result, Yi Qing, the Eldest Princess, and the other second-tier characters suddenly picked up the burden that would not have fallen on his shoulders.
Especially after they lost contact with Finn and the others, the only person who could share their burden was also gone. The burden of more than 300,000 survivors made it hard for Yi Qing to breathe.
Therefore, Yi Qing was very happy to see Xu Shenxing and the others.
"My surname is Xu, just call me Old Xu. Although your strength has reached the level of a Hero, your mentality is still far from it, "Xu Shenxing calmly patted him on the shoulder," You still need to gain more experience. "
"Then Mr. Xu, what do you plan to do next?"
In Yi Qing's mind, Xu Shenxing, who had saved this world more than ten years ago, was indeed a senior figure, so he did not have any objections to his tone of teaching juniors. Instead, he asked with concern.
"Let's go to Clearwater City first, let me understand more specific information, then I'll go to the place where the meteor fell."
He was quite curious about the carrier that brought the Era of Destruction to this world.
In addition, although Mo Li should be able to resist the aftermath of the Era of Destruction, it was better to let her stay here just in case. At the same time, she could also protect Song Yu and Jiang Yue, killing two birds with one stone.
"We're about to reach the next stop, Clearwater City."
Without waiting for Yi Qing to express any opinions or suggestions on Xu Shenxing's travel arrangements, Jiang Yue began to report the stop.
Xu Shenxing poked his head out of the window, and could indeed see the special city.
In fact, Clearwater City was originally called Port of Clearwater, a city built on a large island, and at the same time, it was also the largest commercial port in the inland area through the Mistri River to the sea. The island looked like a giant eggplant placed upside down in Clearwater Lake, and currently, more than eighty percent of the area was occupied by buildings and slums (it looked like the eggplant was covered in mold). Only a small part of the eggplant was connected to the outside world through a man-made stone bridge.
The lake surrounding Clearwater City was its natural barrier.
Although the Spirits of Chaos were considered invincible to the people of this world, they had a set of specific rules of behavior. Otherwise, the humans would have long been doomed, and Xu Shenxing would not have been able to save them. They would not simply cross natural barriers.
That's right, although these incorporeal things could pass through walls, they would not pass through natural objects such as rocks. At the same time, although water was harmless to them, they would not deliberately enter the water.
It was because of this that there were so many refugee cities in this world, and the one thing that these refugee cities had in common was that they were all built on special terrain with natural barriers.
Xu Shenxing poked his head out of the window and saw that the River Moon was moving quickly and steadily on the water, and not far ahead of them was the floating city of Clearwater.
"Generally speaking, what would a refugee city do when they notice those monsters approaching?" Xu Shenxing suddenly asked Yi Qing, who was in the car.
"Generally speaking, it's people like us who lure the Spirits of Chaos away. It's fine when there are only a few of them, but when there are too many of them, it's a disaster … Also, I heard that some refugee cities would sacrifice the lives of some civilians to lure them away because they don't have many strong people. Although I don't know the reason, but after the Spirits of Chaos kill the civilians, they will settle down in a very small area for a long time before they resume their activities. "
Yi Qing replied. "The scholars of Her Royal Highness believe that the Spirits of Chaos are infecting humans to increase their own kind, but I guess that's the time they need to digest humans. I will never admit that those damn things are humans."
"I see. Then I'm afraid that the city thinks that we are part of the monsters." Xu Shenxing also retracted his head back into the car and said calmly, "Your two sisters are flying this way …"
