Lost Future World
The cold rain hit Arias 'face, and he woke up from his coma. He felt like his head was about to explode. His entire body was weak, and his vision was blurry. He struggled to stand up, rubbed his eyes, calmed himself down, and looked around.
This was a grassland that stretched as far as the eye could see. There were no trees around, only grass that swayed with the breeze under the nourishment of the rain. There was nothing else.
What was this place? Where am I? A string of question marks lingered in his mind. He only remembered that he was in front of a cave with the animals. How did he end up here?
His head hurt so badly that he had to lie down again. No matter how the rain baptized him, he still had to gather a thread of thought.
The rain gradually stopped, and Arias's consciousness recovered a lot. He stood up again. He wanted to take a closer look to see if his eyes were hallucinating.
The grassland was still the same.
The air was fresh after the rain. Arias took a deep breath. His head did not hurt as much anymore. He calmed himself down and looked out. The entire grassland looked even more lush under the rain. Every blade of grass was filled with water droplets.
He raised his arms and roared at the sky, dispelling the depression in his heart and clearing his mind.
He thought of his animal friends. Where were they? How are they?
"Jamil!" he shouted.
There was no reply. It was deathly silent. There was only the sound of the wind blowing through the tender grass.
He shouted repeatedly and searched aimlessly on the grassland.
Nothing. He was tired, and he was about to despair.
"Arias!"
It was Jamil, his Jamil. He became excited.
Looking in the direction of the voice, more than 500 meters in front of him, Jamil discovered him and ran over as if he was flying.
Arias also ran over and hugged Jamil in his arms.
"Jamil! Old buddy, I'm so happy to see you again. I was scared to death. I thought I would never see you again.”
"Me too, Arias. Where was this place? Weren't we in front of the cave? Why are you here?"
"This? I don't know. He was also looking for answers. Let's not talk about this first. Where are your companions?”
"They are all over there, still unconscious. Arias, come with me!”
Arias and Jamil woke up the animals one by one. Their reactions were equally surprised and confused.
They greeted each other. They gathered together again.
"Are all the companions here?" Arias asked anxiously. Who else is missing? Jamil!"
"I didn't find anyone missing. Oh, by the way, Lily doesn't seem to be here.”
"I'm here, I'm here." Lily flew out from the bushes.
"Oh, Lili, you're even more beautiful than before after taking a shower.”Arias teased.
"Thank you, I think so too. Who asked me to be a beauty?" Lily hovered up and down with a smug look on her face.
" Hahahahahaha." The animals burst into laughter.
Arias raised his hands, signaling for everyone to quiet down.
" Guys, we're in some trouble now. We don't know where we are. Maybe it's not Boston, maybe it's not America, maybe it's even further away. We know nothing about this place. We have to figure out what's going on. The important thing is to find a place to stay first. We can't just wander around aimlessly.”
"Such a large grassland, with no end in sight, how are we going to find it?”
"That's right. We can't find the direction at all. Without a target, isn't it a waste of effort?”
"Yes, I am!"
"Yes, I am!"
"Don't worry, guys. There will always be a way. Nothing can stump us. Everyone, think about it.”
"That's for you humans. We don't have such high intelligence.”There was a sarcastic tone in the group.
"Who is it? It was the one without depth. Don't forget that Arias is in the same strange place as us. Who doesn't want to go home? Is it only you?”
There was no reply.
Arias continued," Everyone, don't be discouraged. According to our human experience, it's almost noon now. Based on the direction of the current shadow, we're facing the south. If we keep walking in one direction, I think we'll definitely find something.”
"Why not the west? Not the north? Not the east? And why does it have to be the south?" There were different opinions.
"It's not just that direction. We just need to identify and choose a direction so that everyone can walk out. That's the basic goal.”
"I suggest we go east!"
"I suggest we go west!"
"It might be better to go north. I suggest we go north!”
Everyone was talking at the same time, creating a mess.
Kotter let out a long roar, and instantly, there was silence. A tiger was indeed a tiger. It was quite powerful.
"Listen to me, don't argue. We can't fight on our own like this. We have to work together. Only then will there be hope. I think it's time for us to choose a leader. Everyone, who do you think is the most suitable?"
The animals looked at each other and had no idea what to do.
"I suggest that Arias is the only human among us. He has brains and abilities. I believe he will definitely be able to bring us out of this predicament. Let Arias be our leader!”Goat Larry was the oldest, and his suggestion was quickly answered.
"I agree." Jamil echoed, "Arias and I have been thinking about this for many years. I know him. He is a very outstanding person and is very respected in the human world. I believe that he is the best candidate for the leader.”
Kerry and Milla agreed. At the same time, it brought along a large number of animals.
"Do you have any objections?"
Kotter looked at everyone.
There was complete silence.
"Alright then." " Now, let's take a vote," Kotter said." Those who support Arias stand on the left, and those who disagree stand on the right. I hope that you will express your own views from the bottom of your heart and not echo them. We will now begin voting.”
The right side was empty, without a single vote.
" This is the will of the people," Kotter announced." This is the voice of everyone. Then let us support Arias as our leader." Let Arias speak now!"
Arias didn't refuse. "Since everyone trusts me so much, I'm obliged to shoulder this heavy responsibility." I will definitely do my best to lead everyone out of this predicament. Please believe me that nothing is impossible. As long as we don't give up, as long as we are united and united, nothing will be difficult for us.”
The animals cheered.
Arias raised his right hand and ordered,""Now, I announce that our target is to set off from the south!”
Lily scouted the way in the air, while Jamil rushed to the front, followed closely by a large group of people.
Although it had just rained, the sun was still scorching hot, and everyone was drenched in sweat.
After walking for about three to four hours, there was a forest in front of them, and animals flocked there.
After getting a breather, everyone seized the time to rest.
Arias patrolled the entire forest and found that it was only a small forest. Outside, there was still a grassland that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Kotemira and Jamil gathered around Arias to discuss the next step of the plan.
"Everyone, this forest is a temporary shelter for everyone. We will change our strategy. We can't advance blindly. Let everyone rest here and send people out to scout.”
"I think this is very reasonable. This will allow everyone to have enough rest. They were the fellows who had to work hard to scout the way.”Kotter agreed.
"Who can take on this important task? I believe you already have someone in mind, right? Tell me your thoughts."
"I think Villardi, oh, is a sparrow. Its flying ability was strong, so it would definitely be able to complete the mission.”Mila suggested.
"I think it's fine. Let Covalho go with us. We can look out for each other.”added Kotter.
Kovalho was a wild goose.
Arias said," Alright, you guys make the arrangements. Tell them to be careful and come back before dark."”
Villardi and Covalho set off.
Arias leaned against a larger tree and sat down. Everyone gathered around him.
Kotter looked worried. "Arias, I really can't imagine where we are. We didn't see any humans or animals along the way. Isn't it too strange to see such a vast grassland?”
"Yes, I am." Mila added. "I've lived in the forest for so long, but I've never heard of such a large grassland nearby. Furthermore, there are no signs of life.”
"That's right. Where is the end of this grassland? There's nothing here. It's unbelievable.”
"Is there a plague here? It was the humans who had killed them all. I can't imagine it." The one who spoke was a gibbon.
"And you are?" Arias did not recognize it.
" It's called Chris Bolch," Kotter introduced." He was the first to hear Mila's warning."”
"Oh, Chris Bolch. That's a nice name. But now, just like you, I don't know what happened. We can only take it one step at a time."
Everyone was helpless.
When the sky was almost dark, Villardi and Covalho returned. They brought back good news.
Arias announced to the animals,""Villardi and Covalho found a mountain. Although it's not big, it might become our foothold.”
The animals cheered again.
"Villardi, tell everyone what you saw.”
"Alright, guys. Kovalho and I flew for about an hour and saw a mountain in the distance. The mountain was densely forested. We wanted to go closer to take a look, but the sky was getting dark and we were afraid that you would be anxious, so we came back first to report.”
"Oh, it's like this. Did you find any signs of life?”Arias asked.
"I'm not sure. I was quite far away, so I didn't look too closely.”
"Alright then, let's call it a day. It's getting dark, so we'll rest here tonight for safety's sake.”
It was late at night, and Kotter and Mira were lying next to each other.
"Mila, what do you think will happen tomorrow?”
"I don't know. The situation is unclear, and it's not too optimistic.”
"I don't think so. No matter what, there's still hope, right?”
"I hope so!"
"You have to be confident. Didn't Arias say so?”
"Arias, I would like to say a few words about him. Should we trust him too much? He is a human after all. Can he be of the same heart as us? It was hard to say when they reached a place with people.”
"Don't think like that. I don't think Arias is the kind of person you're talking about. We've known him for a while now, so you should know him. Besides, Jamil is our best friend. He won't lie to us.”
"That being said, we still have to have our own ideas and not rely too much on Arias.”
"You're right, but under the current circumstances, we can only do so. Let's wait and see.”
"Yes, it's getting late. Rest! Who knew what would happen tomorrow?”
He was speechless for a night.
Bonon's long cry pierced through the night sky. It was almost dawn.
Arias woke everyone up and continued on their way.
After all, he was a human. His physical strength was limited, and his speed was much slower. Crete the zebra was willing to let Arias ride on its back so that they could walk faster.
They finally saw the mountain. It was dozens of miles in circumference and not small at all!
They stopped a few kilometers away from the mountain and did not dare to advance rashly.
He needed someone to scout the situation, understand the situation, and make sure that nothing went wrong.
Kotter and Mira were the ones who shouldn't be denied the responsibility.
