All Worlds Madhouse

Chapter 172 Leaving the City

This section of the subway track has never undergone any maintenance half a century ago, so naturally there are no lights or clean platforms. The train is speeding at the highest speed, and the broken windows reveal the The wind was squeezed into a fist-hard wind, roaring into the car, and then scattered, turning into a messy gale.

No one spoke. Although there were still many questions that had not been answered and many answers that had not been found, no one wanted to care about these at this moment.

They just feel heavy, so heavy that their throats hurt.

History will be written by the victors. This is a fact that everyone knows. However, when this history is really placed in front of a group of people, it turns into a pot of venom that is difficult to swallow.

Are we living in this kind of history?

If it was just a war, it would actually be acceptable. After all, both the victor and the loser risked their lives for themselves.

But what if it was a massacre?

Then there would be no glory, no faith, not even the most basic pursuit of ideals, only the purest sin.

What's even more frightening is that this sin was easily removed, like the garbage left over from breakfast, like a ball of spit spit out, like a scene that was forgotten in the blink of an eye. Dream.

And this garbage, this saliva, this dream contains billions of living human lives!

No one is confused about it, no one regrets it, no one even remembers it.

Those who died in vain will live forever and ever.

Die in vain!

It took a long time until Quinn's face started to hurt from the wind.

"Why is this happening?" she finally asked.

"Oh?" At this time, Logan was leaning on his seat with his eyes closed, but he did not open his eyes. He just continued to answer motionlessly: "Are you talking about why this memory was washed away? Didn't you say that before? Well, for the sake of the stability of mutant society, if we build a new life through bloody massacres, then there will always be people who take it out over and over again and comment, conscience, after a good meal, will always It will appear very strong, so simply delete all this memory, and then use education and some deceptive methods to make this false history real. In this way, after a few generations, the fake will be completely It’s become real. You don’t have to think how abominable this is, in fact we have used this method to stabilize society from beginning to end, whether we are humans or mutants.”

Quinn was silent for a few seconds: "So, why the massacre? Why can't mutants and humans live in peace?"

"What? Hahahahaha -" Logan suddenly laughed: "Stop it, mutants are not much different from humans except for their superpowers, and humans have never coexisted peacefully with other life forms!"

"It's impossible. We now know how to protect the environment and value nature. We also keep pets and set up protected areas for other lives. We even help them survive in this world."

"Ah, okay, okay, if you think about it carefully, is that really peaceful coexistence?" Logan interrupted Quinn: "It's just slavery, control, and at best, it's just breeding.

As I said just now, after people have had enough wine and food, they will always have many more powerful emotions. We are the gods of this world! We have control over the lives of all other species, and I’ll bet my paws that if one day cats threaten our place in nature, the next day there won’t be any cats left in the world!

In the same way, if humans threaten the existence of mutants, then it will be impossible for them to coexist peacefully, not even for an hour! Oh, we're almost there, you better hold on to the handrails."

Logan suddenly changed the topic and said.

Others still didn't react, but they could clearly feel that the speed of the train began to drop rapidly, and the friction between the track and the wheels almost made people have to cover their ears.

But even so, everyone still held on to the armrest!

Then.

With a "boom", the train seemed to hit something and stopped suddenly. Although the speed was already very low, due to the large mass, the inertia brought by this little speed was enough to make people directly Fly away!

"Phew, we're here!" Logan breathed a sigh of relief, and then pulled out the claw stuck in the wall: "Sorry, this kind of train was controlled by one person before, but he has been too old in recent years. The ability is a bit degraded, so this often happens when braking.”

"Okay." Hannibal's body was still very weak. He held back from vomiting, and then said helplessly: "But, what do you mean when you say that the trains are all controlled by one person?"

"That's what it means literally. He controlled the train and brought us all the way here."

"Well, I still don't understand. Don't all subways have their own startup procedures?"

Logan smiled: "Haha, I think you may be mistaken. This train has not been running for many years and has no energy for a long time. I don't know if the program can be used, but if it is really driven by the original program This subway will definitely be discovered!"

Hannibal was stunned for a moment: "No more energy?"

"Yes, this car is not running at all. The few things I fiddled with in the cab just now were not to start the car, but to send a signal to tell the person that we were already in place."

In fact, when it comes to this, everyone still doesn't understand. It feels like what Logan said is like someone hundreds of kilometers away using some force to lift the car and keep flying in the tunnel.

But it doesn’t matter. There are already so many questions in everyone’s mind, so it doesn’t matter if there is one more.

So without further ado, since the car stopped, it was natural to get off the car.

However, the parking location was a bit off. Instead of parking next to the platform, it drove over and parked in the tunnel, so everyone could only fumble in the dark for a while before arriving at the platform.

Logan smiled a little sheepishly: "As I said, that guy is a bit old, so he doesn't have a good grasp of the parking position, so please don't mind."

With that said, he climbed onto the platform

Next, everyone passed through a path dug out of the ruins, climbed several flights of stairs, and finally came out of a subway exit!

What appeared before everyone's eyes were the ruins of a city, and they were the kind of ruins that were so ruined that only the remains were left.

There are not even many ruined buildings left. There are rubble and collapsed buildings everywhere. Not far away, there are several large craters that look like they have been hit by meteorites. Farther away, there is a ruined building hidden in the night. The huge steel beam of the bridge completely collapsed and hung on the piers like a dying man, while the other half of the bridge had disappeared.

"Look, this is the world after the war. Although it is not very beautiful, at least there is no radiation, because humans at that time did not even have time to launch a missile, or in other words, there was no way to launch it. 27 level 4 mutants disabled all the guided weapons of all countries. I don’t know the specific method, but it is said that there are a few people who are so powerful that they directly blocked the signal of the entire Eurasian continent. In short, you The ruins I saw were all done by mutants! Oh, by the way, this city used to be called Manhattan, not IPZ-127, the numbering of this city is terrible," said Logan.

Although the subway is out of the city, it is obviously not too far from the city. Not far away, you can still see the brightly lit ipz-127. The curtain-like "purification layer" is like a big bowl, upside down in the city. above.

"But if the 'purification layer' is not for purifying nuclear radiation, then what is it for?" Quinn couldn't help but ask.

"Of course it's to guard against us." Logan responded: "Oh, no, we should say 'we' now."

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge aircraft suddenly broke through the clouds in the sky, and with a not too loud roar, it quickly hovered above everyone's heads.

Then, under the wing, an elevator slowly dropped to the ground.

Logan walked onto the elevator easily, and then waved to everyone:

"What are you still doing? Come up quickly!"

Hannibal and the other three hesitated for a moment, looked back at the familiar yet unfamiliar city, and finally followed them onto the elevator.

In fact, if you lower your head slightly, you can see that there is a large character painted on the lifting chassis where they are standing.

"X".
