Law of Fire

　　The city wall was behind him, and he finally saw the wilderness.

　　 There is no forest, no farmland, nothing but half-human grass.

After the city gate is a cement road, the cement road leads to a road where the roadbed is higher than the flat ground. That is the highway that used to be. Villages can be seen on the highway, both far and near, but now it is definitely not. The remains of the human village.

　　 University doesn’t teach everything, so Gao Qi has a lot of things he doesn’t understand, but he will definitely know some common sense.

For example, why don’t you plant land near the city? That’s because the second cataclysmic war of alien beasts lasted for about five years, and the city is the main target of those alien beasts, so every city is a battlefield, and every city around Countless strange beasts died.

　　The death of a strange animal will pollute the land. The contaminated land is not that no food can be grown, but the food that is grown is poisonous. People will go crazy after eating it, so naturally these contaminated land will not be reused.

　　In order to fight against the alien beasts, human beings use all the weapons that can be used, which of course includes nuclear bombs, so outside the city, but a little further away, the main source of pollution is nuclear radiation.

The nuclear radiation remaining after the nuclear bomb explosion is actually not strong, so the harm caused by nuclear radiation is behind the strange beasts, and the distance from the city wall is further, but the closer the city is to the land, the more unusable it is. This is every city. Will face the problem.

　　 Fortunately, the number of exotic animals is limited after all, and the residual radiation from the nuclear bomb cannot cover every inch of land, so as long as the city is far enough away, there will naturally be land that can be cultivated.

Gao Qi always wondered why the city would not accept and help the deserted people. In his view, even in the ignorant ancient times, human beings knew that population was the most important resource, so population resources are extremely needed. Today, why do those who are in charge of the city not only refuse to accept the deserted people, but also drive out those who were born and raised in the city and have received higher education?

It is also okay to drive people out of the city, move some people out of the city, and let some deserters live around the city, organize gathering areas around the city, conduct basic management of the people in the gathering areas, and establish a minimum order , Then the human society will recover naturally.

　　 This question seems very simple, but Gao Qi never got the answer. In his opinion, the best way to solve the problem is that no one uses it at all.

But after three energy explosion incidents, just today when Gao Qi had to leave the city, at the moment he left the city gate, he suddenly understood. He understood what Professor Su’s saying that meat-eaters mean. .

After two cataclysms, mankind regressed back to the city-state era by coincidence. From Gao Qi's perspective, this is undoubtedly a civilizational regression. An important reason for this civilizational regression is that everyone thinks the third cataclysm. It will definitely come, and humanity will eventually perish, and it won't take long.

People will be short-sighted after despair. If there is no future at all, then timely enjoyment will definitely be the consensus of the vast majority of people. Of course, not everyone in this world will despair, but it is not one person, but a group that controls the city. When a group has reached a general consensus, then what happens next is difficult to change direction according to someone's will.

　　 Those city controllers, they have already got most of the resources, they just want the best living conditions and enjoy the present, not to rebuild human civilization.

Cities can be self-sufficient, but the number of people they can accommodate is ultimately limited, and population growth is fast, so when the capacity of the inner city is close to the limit, it will naturally drive people to the outer city, and the outer city does not need it. People can only rush out of the city.

　　 Egoism is the mainstream value of human nature. Live your own good life behind closed doors. As for those deserters who don’t know at all and are bound to be dangerous, who cares.

　　 No matter what the starting point is, Gao Qi believes that this is the beginning of establishing initial contact with the deserted people and slowly starting to establish order outside the city, and it is a good start.

　　 But with three energy bursts, this good beginning is likely to end.

　　 At this point, we must explain the basis of the existence of a city, especially what is the basis of why a city can be closed and operated.

　　 Speaking of the first cataclysm, the first cataclysm was a sudden invasion by aliens.

　　 A high-level civilization alien spaceship fleet suddenly appeared. Three mother ships stayed in outer space, and then numerous small spaceships entered the atmosphere to launch an indiscriminate attack on humans.

　　Aliens used energy weapons to attack human cities with a certain kind of microwave, and humans had no ability to fight back. So in just three hours, nearly half of humans were killed.

Humans could not react at all, but humans survived because the alien attack lasted only three hours. After the three alien motherships exploded in outer space, the small spacecraft in the atmosphere fell to the ground one after another. .

　　 When human beings opened the first small spacecraft that fell to the ground with anger, they discovered that there were no aliens inside. Those who entered the atmosphere to attack were only part of the alien weapon system.

As for the wreckage of the mothership, it was not until three months later that it gradually began to fall to the ground under the action of gravity. For more than a year, the night sky would be illuminated by the flames that burned when the wreckage of the alien mothership entered the atmosphere. .

　　 This is the first cataclysm that has made mankind realize his fragility and ignorance. Mankind was destroyed in ignorance, and saved in ignorance, but he didn't even know what aliens looked like.

The miraculous destruction of aliens can only be presumed to have been done by higher-level alien civilizations, or with the help of gods. Apart from drawing conclusions in an idealistic way, nothing else can be obtained. explained.

　　 The first catastrophe almost completely destroyed mankind, but it also promoted the development of science and technology. Mankind has obtained many key technologies, and the most important one is controllable nuclear fusion.

　　 With controllable nuclear fusion, a near-infinite energy source, mankind will be able to make breakthroughs in many technologies, including agriculture, of course.

Mankind built buildings to grow food, soilless cultivation, combined with the uninterrupted light brought by unlimited energy, then factories that can grow crops without the land were born, and mankind also had to completely close a city. The basis of operation.

　　 So after the first major catastrophe, human beings have actually entered a period of rapid recovery. Population growth and breakthroughs in key technologies have made it possible for humans to enter a higher dimension of civilization.

　　 But only six years later, the door with strange light appeared. Behind the door was a strange world, and countless kinds of strange creatures poured out from behind the door with light.

　　 Four star gates appeared in four places. Four extremely powerful monsters appeared behind the four star gates, and four extremely powerful monsters led countless alien beasts to launch attacks against humans.

　　 also happened inexplicably. Then, after two days of opening, the four star gates began to disappear one after another, and the four extremely powerful monsters also died one after another, and they died of unknown reasons.

　　 This is the beginning of the second cataclysm. After the death of four alien beasts capable of destroying humans, the remaining alien beasts continue to attack humans, and the worst thing is that these alien beasts can reproduce.

　　 The war of alien animals has changed the world. Humans have born supernatural beings. Of course, mutants have also appeared. In addition, humans have used walls to protect themselves and the city.

Five years after the war of alien beasts, another star gate opened and another powerful super alien appeared, but this time, the star gate disappeared after only three seconds, and the fifth super alien followed after it appeared. Disappeared, some people say that this super alien is dead, some say that this super alien is not dead but hides.

This is the second cataclysm. Because it was caused by alien beasts, it was also called alien beast war. In this war, humans gave birth to supernatural beings, of course mutants appeared, and humans eliminated the walls. After many years, he re-enclosed himself within the city wall.

　　 Strictly speaking, the second cataclysm has not ended until now, because alien beasts still exist, and the important reason for humans to return to the city-state era, and the most deadly reason, is that humans have lost the ocean.

The ocean has been completely occupied by alien beasts, the land is shared by humans and alien beasts, and the sky is controlled by humans. However, it is obvious that air transport alone cannot sustain the freight demand between several continents. Lu Yuan is also widely distributed and cannot be completely eliminated. Beasts are extremely risky, so each city is actually an island. In this case, it is strange that there is no city-state.

　　 The origin of the city-state is roughly the same, and now the origin of the deserted people can be explained.

When the city dwellers were also defenders and fought a five-year war with the alien beasts, no matter what the reason, the deserters did not miss the war. So when the war ended, these people who did not make any contribution to the city thought If you want to enter the city and share the survival resources with the defenders of the city, you can imagine the result.

　　 It is the original sin for urban residents to look at the deserted people as defenders.

　　 In the eyes of the deserters, the abundant survival data is the original sin of those in the city.

Urban residents are organized, resourceful, and victors of alien warfare. They have an overwhelming advantage over the deserted people and will surely be able to occupy a dominant position. So even though the deserted people dream of entering the city, they don’t mind breaking into the city and taking it away. Everything about the people in the city, UU reading www.uukanshu.com can only survive in the wasteland.

　　 Two catastrophes, driven by human nature, human beings who have lost hope have established a new world on the wasteland, a weird but very reasonable world.

Not everyone can clearly understand the world, most people just live in a muddle, waiting in fear for the third catastrophe, but Gao, he is now one of the few people who can see the essence of this world clearly. , Is also one of the few people who can figure out their position.

　　 Gao Qi positioned himself as a person abandoned by the city. He knew how to survive, but he didn't know how to change his destiny.

　　 But now, after three energy fluctuations in three days, everything is different.

These three energy fluctuations are very likely to be the precursors of the third catastrophe, or the third catastrophe that has already occurred, but these are not important to the height. The important thing is that the first energy fluctuation is at the center of the outbreak. He was there the second time, and he had very strong hallucinations in both energy fluctuations. If this can be regarded as a coincidence, it would be too coincidental.

But illusions are the opinions of others. No matter how reasonable Han Ruofeng and Huang Fei are, Gao Qi still does not believe all the illusions he experienced, the overlapping worlds, those vortices, and the light spots in the void, everything is so real. .

　　 The most important thing is not the vision, but the feeling, the feelings of regret and sadness that have appeared briefly.

　　 Regret and sorrow are only a short moment, but Gao Qi is unforgettable, making it impossible for him to forget, and making him believe that it cannot be an illusion.

　　 Since it is not an illusion, Gao Qi can only insist that he has awakened, but he is not awakened to become a supernatural person.
