The deeper the taxi drove.

The more bizarre the surrounding scene became.

The ruins on both sides stood in a row, and from the outside, a trace of civilization could be vaguely seen.

Lu Xiao stared at the tall buildings in a daze.

Even though the towering ruins were wrapped in rotten flesh and blood, Lu Xiao could recognize them at a glance.

"Why do I feel that these ruins are so much like office buildings?"

Hearing Lu Xiao's words, the driver also reacted.

"Fuck, I didn't think of it until you said it."

"Isn't this an office building?"

Dante pinched his chin and thought for a moment before saying this.

"Coming all the way in from the periphery, it feels like a road into the city to me."

"The periphery is the suburbs, or the countryside."

"The deeper you go, the more you feel like you've arrived in the center of the city."

Lu Xiao pondered and asked the driver.

"Do you see where this is?"

-

Perhaps the driver was the only person present who was from the same era as him.

And Lu Xiao had not been to many places in that era.

The driver was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise.

"Do you suspect that this is a place in our era?"

Lu Xiao nodded.

"Yes, I remember the mirror once said that."

"Our world is the same world as the world now."

"And we two are from the ancient times."

The driver was speechless.

"But this is the dark prison, it has nothing to do with our era, right?"

Lu Xiao shook his head, still determined in his thoughts.

"Mirror, where is this place in my world?"

He thought so in his heart, and then the voice of the all-knowing mirror sounded in his ears.

"The answer to this question requires a piece of your fingernail."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao pulled out a piece without hesitation.

After swallowing the fingernail, the all-knowing mirror immediately answered the question.

"The answer is: Shanghai."

Hearing the answer of the all-knowing mirror, Lu Xiao's heart skipped a beat.

Seeing Lu Xiao pull out the fingernail, Dante and the driver immediately understood what happened.

The driver immediately asked.

"How is it? What does the respected omniscient mirror say?"

Lu Xiao's expression was a little strange.

His voice was slightly trembling.

"The mirror said that this is Shanghai."

Hearing Lu Xiao's words, the driver felt his head buzzing.

His eyes gradually dulled.

Dante asked in confusion.

"Shanghai, is this a city?"

He had never heard of this place name.

Lu Xiao's tone was heavy.

"Maybe you will understand if I put it another way."

"In our time, Shanghai was also called the Magic City!"

Instantly, Dante's face showed a shocked expression.

After a long while, he said in a deep voice.

"This should be a coincidence, right?"

Lu Xiao shook his head.

"If it is a coincidence, then this is too coincidental."

As he said, he seemed to think of something and immediately looked at Dante and asked.

"By the way, do you know about the Cataclysm Era?"

"And how the Innovation Era was established, do you know these?"

Dante shook his head somewhat dully.

"There is no document left about the Cataclysm Era."

"Even the top archaeologists don't know what happened in the Cataclysm Era."

"That period of history doesn't seem to exist at all."

"Originally, there was a lot of debate among the people about the history of the Cataclysm Era."

"A small number of people firmly believe that the Cataclysm Era does exist."

"And most people believe that the Cataclysm Era is a hoax."

"But with the unearthed documents from an earlier period, the Cataclysm Era was confirmed to exist."

After listening to Dante's answer, Lu Xiao was silent for a moment before asking.

"It's just confirmed to exist, but we don't know what happened, right?"

Dante nodded.

"History was my favorite subject when I was in school."

"The book doesn't record anything about the Cataclysm Era, and even the information about the Late Antiquity Era is very limited, with only a few sentences."

"On the contrary, there is relatively more information about the Medieval Era."

"Our teacher guessed at the time that perhaps the human civilization of the Late Antiquity Era preserved the artifacts before the Middle Ages very well, so they were passed down."

"On the contrary, they didn't record much about their own era."

"And they didn't leave anything representative."

Lu Xiao looked at Dante, his eyes constantly changing.

"So how was the Innovative Century established?"

Dantine thought carefully.

"According to the textbook, the Innovative Century was established on a piece of wasteland."

"Our earliest ancestors started to create on that piece of wasteland."civilization."

"They call themselves pioneers."

"It took them thirty years to develop from agricultural civilization to technological civilization."

Lu Xiao narrowed his eyes.

"Do you know how long it took for agricultural civilization to develop into technological civilization in my era?"

"Thousands of years."

"But your ancestors only took thirty years to leap from industrial civilization to technological civilization."

"Don't you think it's weird?"

"Besides, the mirror once said that I am from the ancient times."

Dante was stunned, and then a chill ran straight down his spine.

"You mean, the pioneers and you are from the same era?"

Lu Xiao did not answer directly.

"In the present world, I see many things that look familiar, and they are not much different from the products of my era."

"For example, the intelligent brain."

"In our era, it was called a computer."

"The two are just different in name, but their actual functions are the same. "

Dante quickly understood what Lu meant by the joke.

"You mean, the pioneers' technology came from your time?"

Lu Xiao nodded.

"But that's not the point."

"Perhaps they dug these technologies out of the ground."

"But since they got these technologies, they must have a clearer understanding of the things in the recent ancient times."

"And you said that there are only a few words about the recent ancient times in the textbooks."

"This is illogical."

Hearing this, Dante frowned.

"Do you suspect that they tampered with the textbooks?"

"Or, concealed history?"

"But what is the meaning of their doing so?"

Dante didn't quite understand.

Lu Xiao didn't continue the topic, but continued to ask questions.

"Regarding how the Dark Prison was born, do you have relevant information among the prison keepers? "

Dante nodded first, then shook his head.

"There is information, but the confidentiality is very high."

"Perhaps even a doctoral degree does not have the authority to access those materials."

Lu Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly.

"So, who established the prison keeper?"

"What is the purpose of establishing it?"

Dante was silent for a long time, as if thinking.

After a long time, his expression froze.

"Pioneer!"
