MTL - Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse-Chapter 555 captive human

On the other side, Shi Wanyun's story continues.

"That night, I slept in room 228." Shi Wanyun took a sip of water from her glass and continued, "I asked room 228 a lot about the previous survivors."

"Oh?" Xu Xin's eyes lit up, "What's going on with them now?"

"Before us, there were four batches of survivors, and each batch will have survivors. And those survivors, now, all live on the other hemisphere of this planet, and most of them are concentrated in one area." Shi Wanyun once again Take a sip of water.

"...in an area?" Xu Xin repeated what she said, "there are many survivors?"

"Well, there are a lot of them." Shi Wanyun nodded, "There are a lot of survivors in each group, far beyond my imagination."

Now, the powerhouses in various regions, including Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang, generally believe that the previous survivors had regional confrontations with each other, and there may be very few people left in the end.

As a result, Shi Wanyun now said that the number of survivors far exceeded her imagination?

"...Could it be that they didn't engage in regional confrontation?"

"No, they have engaged in regional confrontation. Every group of survivors will conduct regional confrontation, and those who survive in the end are considered survivors. It's just that their so-called regional confrontation doesn't seem to be as cruel as we imagined. It's life and death."

Shi Wanyun twirled the empty cup in her hand, and said softly: "According to No. 228, she is the third group of survivors, and their group of survivors did not actually lose too many people in the regional confrontation. From the beginning to the end, the number of survivors in that batch has only decreased by 30%.”

"30%..." Xu Xin said to himself, "Most people survived the regional confrontation?"

"Yes, even that 30 percent, some of them died from natural disasters. In fact, fewer people died from fighting among survivors."

"why?"

"Because, the third batch of survivors does not exist like you or your explorers."

Xu Xin was slightly taken aback, and then thought about it: "...You mean, they are too weak, so they don't have any beneficial means of confrontation with each other?"

"This is one of them." Shi Wanyun nodded, "The most important thing is that the survivors in different regions are very far away from each other."

"So, when regional confrontation comes, most people can't do anything except line up with people from other regions on the world channel."

"Wait a minute." Xu Xin frowned slightly, "Didn't the first few batches of survivors be cross-distributed like us?"

Their group of survivors, the survivors in adjacent areas are mixed together. Districts 187 and 188 intersect, and Districts 188 and 189 intersect.

Because of this, they feel that the possible regional confrontation will cause huge losses to the survivors.

"That's what I want to say too."

Shi Wanyun put down the quilt in her hand, looked at Xu Xin and said, "It seems that only our group of survivors is like this. The first four groups of survivors are all divided by region. The survivors on a certain piece of land are all of this kind." area people."

Is it so...

"And the most important point, according to No. 228, at least the third group of survivors, in the early days of their existence, never experienced such frequent activities, animal hordes, and natural disasters as our group."

"Because of this, although many of their survivors died, the number of survivors in the end was even..."

Shi Wanyun looked out of the window, at the purple-black beams of light still rising into the sky, each of which basically represented an area.

"Even... more than the rest of our group of survivors. The survivors of the first few batches lived much more comfortably than us."

Hearing this, Xu Xin gently clicked his tongue.

It's not a comfortable thing to do.

Only this group of them is treated specially?

Why?

He looked out of the window at Crystal City, which was still shining brightly in the dark night.

Is it because they are explorers?

All in all, that video Xu Xin once said that their team had tens of thousands of people at its peak.

Therefore, even if they sent all their past selves to the future, there should only be tens of thousands of people right.

As for their group of survivors, there were initially 2 million regions, each with 10,000 people, and a total of 2 million people.

If it is said that the other survivors came to this era not because of what Xu Xin and the others did, then it would make sense.

And the tens of thousands of people who were sent to this era by the video Xu Xin and the others, maybe... all of them are among the fifth batch of survivors.

So those alien invaders are giving them special treatment?

Or is it just because the performance of the first four batches of survivors was dissatisfied and their sadistic needs were not met, so they made their experience of the fifth batch more cruel?

"You continue to talk." Xu Xin said to Shi Wanyun who stopped talking because of his thinking.

Shi Wanyun nodded, and continued: "Number 228 basically told me everything she knew. She herself is the third group of survivors, so she knows the most about the third group of survivors, but according to her, the second group of survivors The first and fourth batches of survivors are basically similar to her experience.”

"What about the first batch?"

"The first batch...she doesn't know much about it." Shi Wanyun said helplessly, "The number of the first batch of survivors is the smallest. She said that she has never seen a few of the first batch of survivors."

"As the first batch of human beings to take root on this planet, the first batch of survivors are basically seventy or eighty years old, and almost all of them are people with high status there, and ordinary people really can't get in touch."

"However, according to the rumors she heard, the experience of the first batch of survivors was very cruel, much crueler than their second, third and fourth batches, and the death rate was also ridiculously high. Human beings who can survive among the first batch of survivors, They are the best of the best.”

"But also because too many people died, it is said that the higher intelligent creatures who sent us to this world were dissatisfied, so the difficulty of the activities experienced by the second, third, and fourth batches of survivors has dropped significantly. The number of survivors has also increased significantly.”

"Number 228 also said that the survivors behind them should thank the first survivors for their sacrifice and dedication, otherwise she would have died in the survival selection."

In other words, the survival difficulty of the first batch is very high, and the difficulty of the second, third and fourth batches decreases.

And when it came to their fifth batch, the difficulty rose again.

…could even be harder than the first batch.

"Isn't the woman you talked to the first batch of survivors?" Xu Xin asked.

"Well, she is indeed, but No. 228 also said that the supervisor was the only survivor she had ever seen, and she only saw it after she came to the World Tree. Before that, she even thought that the first batch of survivors A group of survivors have all died."

"...Before that?" Xu Xin asked the question he had been concerned about just now, "What did the survivors on the tree you came to do before they came to that giant tree?"

"They have their own city." Shi Wanyun's complexion became softer.

"...? Human city?"

"Well," Shi Wanyun nodded slightly, and her voice became softer than before, "These survivors have been building their own cities since the first batch, which is what I just said , the area where humans gather.”

Humans have also built cities on the ground?

"A city run by humans themselves?" he asked skeptically.

"Well, that's right, it is a city managed by humans themselves." Shi Wanyun replied, "It is almost the same as our world, and it is a city managed by humans themselves."

"However, going out of the city is not allowed,

Humans are only allowed to carry out activities in that area. There are groups of mutated creatures outside the city, the lowest is intermediate level, and there are many high-level mutated creatures. Those mutated creatures will not attack human gathering places, but once someone steps out of the activity area, will be slaughtered by the herd. "

Xu Xin did not expect this.

Back in the Crystal Palace, Xu Xin in the video had told him that after the earth was invaded, the human beings who were selected to survive were nothing but slaves of the alien invaders.

How could they allow a group of slaves to build a city and run it themselves.

Is that still called a slave?

But now, this kind of thing actually happened.

In addition to the human base below the ground, there is actually a human city above the ground!

Why is that?

Captive humans?

Or, those alien invaders have discovered their conscience and want to give human beings a living space?

"As long as the previous batch of survivors survived, they will be concentrated in that city."

"The city is rich in resources. Except for occasional labor, there is no pressure in life. Humans living in the city have given birth to newborns generation after generation."

"According to what No. 228 told me, the number of humans in their city has exceeded two million. That city is the first city built by humans in this world."

Xu Xin raised her eyebrows.

That's not a lot.

A city with more than two million people would be considered a relatively large city even on the earth thousands of years ago.

In ancient times, the capital of a generation of dynasties only had a population of hundreds of thousands. The population of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty was conservatively estimated to be no more than one million.

And on this earth that was invaded thousands of years later, besides the underground human base, there is actually such a bustling city!

However, think about it too.

Since the death rate in the second, third and fourth batches is not high, there may indeed be a lot of remaining humans.

And, most importantly, if the previous batches of survivors were of the same age as theirs, it would be too easy for them to reproduce.

They are all young people between the ages of 18 and 30, and their energy in this area is not ordinary. After there is no life crisis, they can even give birth to the next generation within a year, causing the population to skyrocket.

…etc.

Could it be that the survivors are all people of this age group, is that the case?

Just want them to multiply offspring quickly and give birth to more human beings?

"Number 228 also said that it has been nearly fifty years since the first survivors came to this world. Those people are all in their seventies and eighties, and many of them have become great-grandfathers and great-grandmothers, and the four generations live under one roof."

"Although she hasn't seen the first batch of survivors much, she has come into contact with the descendants of the first batch of survivors. There are several great-grandchildren and great-granddaughters of the first batch of survivors on the World Tree."

When Shi Wanyun spoke, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her voice softened a lot.

She seemed to have a good impression of the city, and even said that she was looking forward to life in that city.

Xu Xin lowered her eyes slightly.

really…

She didn't know the actual situation of this world yet, and thought it was another planet, or even a different world.

Even Xu Xin herself, if she didn't know the truth about this world, would probably feel at ease after learning that there is still a city in this world made up of human beings and predecessors of the survivors.

At least, in this world, human beings still have a home, and they still have a large number of companions. This feeling.

but…

Knowing the truth, he would not be so optimistic.

He didn't believe that the alien invaders who drove mankind to extinction thousands of years ago would do anything good.

"This city is called the City of Hope, as the name suggests." Shi Wanyun looked at Xu Xin, "People in the City of Hope generally believe that the people who brought them here are higher than human beings."

Other intelligent creatures, and for them, this high-level intelligent creature is like a god, making them powerless to resist. "

"However, their current comfortable life also makes them think that the survival they have experienced is a thrilling selection, and those of them who are successful in the selection are qualified to contact the higher creatures of this world, qualified to To live in this world is to be qualified to serve them.”

"They are proud of this. Everyone has shown a very devout and even fanatical worship of this advanced intelligent creature and their so-called gods."

Xu Xin's heart skipped a beat.

This point is basically consistent with what Xu Xin said in the image in the crystal room.

Most of the people who were controlled by the alien invaders at that time had extremely fanatical worship for them, and they had a worship that was almost impossible to betray.

As for Xu Xin's video team, there are very few people who are immune to mind control.

"So, every year, there will be a fierce selection in the city, and the most outstanding group of people in the city will be selected to go outside the city to serve the real masters of this world, the group of higher command creatures, the gods in their hearts .”

Xu Xin showed a clear look: "That towering giant tree?"

"Well, but that's just one of them." Shi Wanyun looked at the World Tree that was still growing outside the window, and said softly, "There are many trees like that on the back of this planet, and they are of different levels. The one we went to belongs to one of the highest ranks.”

She smiled lightly: "For this matter, No. 228 is very proud."

Xu Xin didn't want to laugh at all.

World tree... on the back of the planet, there are many?

From this point of view, the selection in human cities is somewhat similar to the college entrance examination in the world thousands of years ago.

It is a relatively universal selection.

All school-age people can participate. Those who fail the entrance examination cannot enter the university, and those who pass the selection are eligible to go to the university, and universities are also divided into good and bad.

The world tree that Shi Wanyun went to was one of the highest-level "schools".

"However, it is a pity that most of the people who were selected and came to the World Tree have never really seen any advanced intelligent creatures. Even though No. 228 has a relatively high status, they still haven't seen their masters. I've heard of it."

Having said this, Shi Wanyun's pupils trembled slightly.

A trace of fear flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but clenched her hands tightly in front of her body, trembling slightly.

Then slowly, tremblingly, let out a breath.

"You... have seen it." Xu Xin said softly.

"...Mmm." Shi Wanyun twitched her nose and nodded slightly, "I've seen that... monster."

As she spoke, her hands unconsciously grabbed Xu Xin's arm.

Her hands were already trembling uncontrollably.

Xu Xin could also see a thick layer of goose bumps on her exposed wrist.

…

That morning, Shi Wanyun was woken up by that adult.

Beside Mrs. Cheng, besides the stiff-faced No. 228, there is another girl, the one who greeted her before, the hair on her body is covered with worms.

"Help her change within ten minutes." Mrs. Cheng's voice was very cold.

Shi Wanyun didn't resist either, and let the two girls take off the pajamas that No. 228 prepared for her last night, and then put some very gorgeous clothes on her one after another.

"This is to..." Shi Wanyun looked at Mrs. Cheng and said doubtfully.

"Master is very interested in you, so I want to see you." Mrs. Cheng's tone of speech to her became softer, in stark contrast to the previous coldness, "Although the master doesn't care about our appearance, But we can't slack off."

"Master..." Shi Wanyun murmured.

Is she going to meet the real owner here?

2

On the 28th, she also told her last night that it is an extremely honorable thing to meet the master here, but it is also an extremely painful thing. Among the people she knows, except for the supervisor, no one else Eligibility to meet with the host.

Unexpectedly, she, who just came here, was summoned directly?

Beside her, No. 228, who was arranging her clothes, was also dumbfounded, and even his neck stretched a lot.

The other girl was also so shocked that her "black hair" writhed crazily and even wrapped around Shi Wanyun's arm.

Shi Wanyun's body trembled, and she almost kicked the girl away.

Resisting the physical discomfort, she asked these two people to help her put on this cumbersome outfit.

She looked at the mirror on the side~www.novelbuddy.com~ Her appearance at this time looked like an exquisite doll.

Mr. Cheng looked at Shi Wanyun and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad. You two, you did a good job. You can use the genetic potion next time first."

The latter sentence was addressed to the two women in No. 228.

The two women suddenly woke up from the shock just now, with surprise on their faces: "Thank you, Mr. Supervisor!"

"Okay, we should go."

Mrs. Cheng nodded to Shi Wanyun, then turned and walked out of the room.

The clothes on her body were not very comfortable, and there was even a sense of restraint, which made it difficult for Shi Wanyun to move.

"Follow up!" No. 228 immediately urged, her eyes were already full of envy and jealousy, "My God, you can see the master the next day after you come here! Follow up quickly, in case Once it is full, the supervisor will be angry and not take you there, and it will be over!"
