Wei Guanqing found another kerosene lamp in the equipment warehouse. Even he was a little surprised. After all, kerosene lamps were no longer seen in this era. It should have been designed by someone who was more retro.
The two of them did not dare to let their guard down. They were afraid that the snake-shaped monster would appear again, so they could only walk in quickly.
"This is…" Lu Ye seemed to have noticed something. He suddenly stopped and beckoned Wei Guanqing over.
Wei Guanqing turned around and looked behind him. There was nothing unusual, so he walked to Lu Ye's side and found that Lu Ye was pointing at a code bar that had stopped working.
"This is also a transmission channel!" Lu Ye said excitedly.
"Don't be happy too early. This passageway has already been abandoned!”Wei Guanqing said.
Lu Ye didn't seem to take Wei Guanqing's words to heart and strode forward. After a few steps, he felt that Wei Guanqing was too slow and urged,"Hurry up!"
The two of them walked for a long time before they finally arrived at the end of the tunnel. There was a marble door there.
There was no handle or keyhole on the stone door. There were only four numbers carved on it, 2051. Perhaps it was a year, but there was no other information.
Lu Ye tried to push the stone door, but there was no reaction.
"Let me do it!" Wei Guanqing scanned the stone door. Unexpectedly, the code of this stone door was unusually simple. There were a few empty spaces in the middle. Wei Guanqing entered 2051, and the stone door emitted a dark green light as it slowly opened in front of the two of them.
From the outside, the door was filled with green light, and it was impossible to see what was inside. At this moment, Wei Guanqing suddenly remembered the purpose of him and Ah Hong coming to the recycling bin several times in the previous memory fragments. Could this door be the entrance that Ah Hong mentioned that they were looking for?
Wei Guanqing seemed to see the truth about himself in front of him, so he stepped through the stone door first, followed by Lu Ye. The two of them disappeared into the green light.
When the green light dissipated, everything around them gradually became clear.
After seeing their surroundings clearly, the two of them were so shocked that they could not speak.
Surrounded by a boundless sea of stars, they seemed to be in the universe, and under their feet was a transparent glass plank road that led straight ahead.
They walked along the glass walkway to the end, where there was a huge white vortex. It was more like a black hole because the surrounding matter was slowly being sucked into it.
"What is this?" Lu Ye asked, dumbfounded.
" I don't know," Wei Guanqing replied. He couldn't scan the code here, as if it was a void.
The white vortex was slowly spinning. The two of them looked at it a few more times and actually felt a little dizzy.
Wei Guanqing threw the kerosene lamp in his hand over. Just as it was about to touch the vortex, the kerosene lamp seemed to be restrained in mid-air. Its speed slowed down and was finally swallowed by the vortex.
Just as the two of them were staring blankly at the vortex, a bolt of lightning tore through the silent space. The snake-shaped monster actually scuttled into the stone door.
An inexplicable feeling urged Wei Guanqing in his heart. He didn't even say goodbye to Lu Ye before he jumped straight up and slowly disappeared into the vortex.
When Lu Ye came back to his senses, Wei Guanqing had already disappeared. He could only brace himself and jump over.
Lu Ye felt his body become lighter and lighter in the air, as if he was weightless. Then, the world began to spin. White light poured into his seven orifices and seeped into every pore on his body. There was no pain, as if his soul was being pulled out of his body, but his consciousness was gradually getting further and further away.
Wei Guanqing and Lu Ye felt almost the same. After a long time of confusion, he finally felt his soul return to his body. His entire body regained gravity and he was falling rapidly. About ten seconds later, Wei Guanqing shot to the bottom of the sea like a torpedoes.
Seawater surged in from all directions, but at this moment, Wei Guanqing suddenly felt that he could not move. He wanted to open the equipment warehouse, but he suddenly received a feedback message: "Code version error!"
Wei Guanqing watched in despair as he slowly sank to the bottom of the sea and lost consciousness again.
A series of rapid explosions woke Lu Ye up from his deep sleep. He opened his eyes in panic and felt that his face, which was pressed against the ground, was boiling hot. The hot sun was hanging above his head, roasting the smoke-filled city.
When Lu Ye stood up, another wave of explosions came. The ground shook and thick smoke rose in front of him. He scanned his surroundings warily, then rushed to a half-collapsed wall and hid behind it.
He felt that something was wrong. It seemed that there was something wrong with his eyes, so he stretched out his hands and checked them repeatedly. Then he looked down at his clothes and found that everything here was black and white. There was no extra color.
Just as he was feeling puzzled, he heard a sound coming from the ruins not far behind him. He turned his head and saw a few children with dusty faces curled up in a ball, trembling in fear.
A few figures appeared in the smoke, and Lu Ye immediately turned around to hide without hesitation.
The few people walked out of the smoke. They looked at the instruments in their hands and seemed to know the location. They walked straight in the direction of Lu Ye. They were armed with guns and did not look like good people.
Lu Ye hid behind the low wall, not knowing if he had been exposed. He held his breath and watched them approach through the small holes in the low wall. They stopped a few meters away from Lu Ye. One of them raised his weapon and aimed it in Lu Ye's direction.
Lu Ye fixed his gaze on the guy holding the weapon, ready to dodge at any time. However, that guy only feigned a few moves in his direction, then quickly turned his weapon and fired in another direction.
The moment he heard the loud explosion, a complicated feeling of anger and fear arose in Lu Ye's heart because that direction was where the children had been hiding. Lu Ye clenched his fists. He didn't know why these people wanted to kill those seemingly harmless children.
After the few villains left, Lu Ye was still immersed in shock and could not come back to his senses.
He walked through the smoke-covered city. Everything here had been looted. He did not see a single living person. It was like a dead city.
As the sun was about to set, Lu Ye finally reached the edge of the city, or rather, the end of the city. The sky seemed to be torn apart. Inside was a desolate city, and outside the city was endless darkness.
Lu Ye stared blankly at the scene in front of him. The knowledge in his mind was not enough for him to make a logical explanation. Looking up at the darkness, he was like the dust in the dark universe, appearing extremely small.
"There's someone there!"
The voice behind him brought his thoughts back to reality.
Lu Ye turned around and saw a few more fully armed people, so he obediently raised his hands.
"You don't have to be afraid. We won't hurt you!”the woman in the lead said.
The woman walked to his side and looked at Lu Ye carefully. She muttered to herself,"No, it doesn't look like a cyborg.”
Lu Ye quickly explained that he was not a cyborg.
"Then are you from the Empire?"
"What empire?" Lu Ye asked.
The woman stared at him suspiciously and walked away. She said,"Let's go back first. This section is about to disappear.”
"What do you mean?" Lu Ye followed closely behind.
The woman stopped and looked at Lu Ye, warning him coldly," If you are not from the Empire, then come with us. But if you dare to play any tricks, I guarantee that you will definitely regret it.
Lu Ye followed them back to the center of the city. There was a small warship parked there. Under the woman's signal, someone came forward and tied Lu Ye's hands, then brought him onto the warship.
The battleship slowly rose into the air and then rushed into the darkness.
"Sit tight!" the pilot instructed.
A warp tunnel appeared in the darkness, and the warship suddenly accelerated. Lu Ye's hands were tied, and he could not control his body. He almost fell over, and the people beside him quickly pressed down on his shoulders.
After some time, the warship finally left the warp tunnel and returned to the darkness.
"We're almost there!" The person who had helped him earlier seemed to have seen through Lu Ye's thoughts and spoke.
Lu Ye thanked him gratefully.
As expected, the warship stopped in the darkness after a few minutes.
"Identity verification in progress…"
"Message approved."
About half a minute later, a round gray portal appeared in the dark space. Through the portal, one could see a lot of buildings inside. It seemed to be a relatively large town.
The moment the battleship passed through the portal, it disappeared.
Lu Ye followed everyone off the battleship. The woman glanced at him and said to the people beside her,""Bring him to the tower first, then send someone to guard him. When dawn comes, let the city lord decide whether he stays or leaves.”
