I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

The monster quickly controlled the girl's limbs, and then the mud-like body covered the girl. The twitching quickly turned into convulsions, and the girl let out a painful and shrill wail.

At this moment, all the emotions turned into pain, gushing out from the throat.

The hoarse voice obviously came from her torn throat, and she was mumbling incoherent shouts. It was almost impossible to understand, but Lu Tiao knew that this must be a curse and regret.

This process lasted ten minutes.

During these ten minutes, the girl remained conscious.

She was just eaten away, leaving nothing behind.

After the monster ate each other, it quickly shrank and turned into a ball of dough with a rough surface.

Among them, something seems to be brewing.

This is probably why this place is called the incubator.

Lu Tan looked at the mud-like monster and suddenly felt that it looked familiar.

It was like the flesh and blood of the tall tower in Dry Water Town in the Kingdom of Darkness.

Like the cement monster in the culture tank at Nan Hua Private Yan Chai Hospital.

It's also like the golden retriever with the mud flowers blooming in the sewers of the abandoned city.

Phew——

The video suddenly shook, and a sharp insect foot poked out from the mud-like monster.

Immediately, the mud suddenly burst, and countless insects were densely packed, climbing on the bed, the floor, and the walls.

These bugs seemed to be commanded by something, exploring the situation everywhere.

Then, they seemed to have found the exit and gathered towards the safe-like container from which the monster had just squirmed out.

It quickly disappeared.

"The experiment is over and it was a success."

The video ends here.

Lu Tian looked at other videos, almost all of which had the same content.

In the video, humans indifferently gave their own kind to monsters to be devoured, and then turned into bugs and left.

Just like the machines on the pig-killing production line, they are meticulous.

"...Conscious fusion?"

Lu Tan thought about it carefully.

He can be roughly certain that the sludge monsters in his world, the Kingdom of Darkness, and the Abandoned City should be the same kind, but they may be at different stages of evolution.

The ones in the Abandoned Capital are the most perfect, and can already completely mimic humans or animals, and master their thinking.

Nan Hua Private Yanji Hospital is relatively primitive, but due to its combination with architecture, it has developed the ability to open up different spaces.

As for the Kingdom of Night, Lu Jian felt that this might be the original form of the monster, but considering the legend of Dry Water Town, even the monsters there might come from foreign lands.

The monsters here in the wasteland seem to be somewhere between the Kingdom of Darkness and the world of Lu Tiao.

After this kind of monster devours humans, it will fuse the human consciousness and obtain the memory and thinking of the devoured person. Therefore, it is normal for it to be able to show the consciousness of the human being itself.

Lu Tiao even thought of a terrifying possibility.

That is the consciousness uploading discovered by people in the old days. Is it possible that it is just wishful thinking?

It's not that they successfully uploaded human consciousness into the bodies of these monsters and controlled these monsters, but that these monsters pretended to be controlled by human consciousness, thus deceiving the desperate humans.

Whether it's consciousness uploading, human transformation, or bridges, it's all a conspiracy.

Lu Tan even wondered whether the first disasters and seeds of madness in this world were planted by the Chosen One from a foreign land.

For the advanced technology of the old-era humans in the wasteland, a simple monster attack may not be effective. Only by using these many means together to allow those humans to obtain today's answers step by step can it be possible to completely destroy this place.

Even if they suffer such persecution, those suffering from crystal disease have continued civilization for hundreds of years in this desolate land. If a disaster occurs, people will not be coerced by madness and despair, but join hands to share weal and woe. By working together to find a way to break the situation, maybe the wasteland will turn into a world that is dilapidated but still contains vitality.

Those supreme great beings, the old rulers, naturally disdain to participate in these, but there are many civilizations in foreign lands, and they themselves are highly expansionary and aggressive, just like the City of Fog and the City of Twilight. There are also areas like the deep sea where several foreign wars have been launched.

It's like watching several nests of ants fighting downstairs one day. You don't know them anyway, so you just hit them casually. If you are in a bad mood one day, just pour a bucket of water down and let everyone finish playing together.

If some ants piece together your name, you may find it strange and observe them carefully, or even catch a few ants to have a look. If you use inappropriate force, you may be crushed to death.

But after looking at these ants, you still can't see any problem, so you lose interest. By the next day, you can't tell which group of ants spells out your name. You step over and may have stepped on some. But it doesn't matter.

Lu Tan left the incubation room, not knowing what the consequences would be if he told Shuang Xin about these things.

When he came to the edge of the ruins, the three wasteland natives were in a daze, staring straight at the industrial park in silence.

As night fell, the four returned to the future city.

At the entrance of the ecological park, the robot girl is waiting for their return.

"...Really, the power cannot be restored."

Lin felt a little sad when she heard the situation in the industrial park described by Lu Jian and others.

Of course, Lu Jian did not tell these robots the truth about the destruction of the world.

"But it doesn't matter. It will be the end of the year in one day. This year we will light a bonfire to welcome the new year. There is a saying among humans, which is to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. As long as the new year arrives, there will definitely be a solution."

The robot girl showed a smile as warm as the sun.

"Um."

Shuangxin nodded, looking haggard and weak.

After dinner, Lu Tan went outside. In the desert blown by the wind and sand, he saw Shuang Xin looking up at the stars.

"We need to sort out what we saw here and report back. Although we didn't find the insect swarm this time, we got more precious information."

Shuang Xin said when she saw Lu Tan.

"What are you going to do with these robots?"

Lu Tan asked.

At this time, Lin was still telling stories to the singer and Setsuna in the ecological garden. They were stories that had been circulated for thousands of years in the old world and originated from the original beautiful imagination of mankind.

"I don't know. Even if we can bring them back, the lack of energy will still make them unable to move, and..."

Shuangxin hesitated.

Bringing robots like Lin back to the city-state will undoubtedly tell them that the world they are familiar with has been destroyed. This is a bit too cold for Shuangxin.

When humans in the old era chose alienation, these man-made robots maintained their hearts.

Shuangxin couldn't treat it simply as a tool.

There is a way for Lu to stumble.

He can actually let robots like Lin enter the [Weird Amusement Park], become a part of the weirdness, and take them back to their own world.

However, in this case, Lin will be completely contaminated and become weird.

Lu Jian didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for robots.

He is still thinking.

"We will go to the industrial park tomorrow to look for information about the insect swarm. Since humans have once dominated the insect swarm, there must be a way to seal it off."

Shuangxin said again.

"I have figured it out. Even if we are eliminated as defective products, we still have the right to survive."

"That's why we're still here."
