Zhuang Cai looked at the flowerpot in his hand and felt the power that the flowerpot could produce.

This flowerpot is easier to understand. The unintelligible plants planted on it are a kind of herbal medicine. This herb can restore injuries and is somewhat omnipotent.

Once picked, it can grow back in a very short period of time. If you are willing to infuse spiritual energy into it, it will grow faster and even strengthen the effect of this herb.

What's the difference between the unknown and Chu Guanlin's guess? But at least it meets their requirements.

After finishing it, Zhuang Cai handed the flowerpot directly to Chu Guanlin.

Chu Guanlin took it carefully and heard Zhuang Cai say next to him: "The herbs grown in this flower pot cannot be used frequently, otherwise it will affect the spirit."

When Chu Guanlin and his teammates heard Zhuang Cai's warning about the side effects, they didn't find it strange at all.

"After all, these are the items left behind by the fallen after their death. If you want to gain their power, you will naturally have to pay some price."

After finishing speaking, No. 1 raised his head and looked at Zhuang Cai and the others and said, "Come on, I will take you to our camp."

Zhuang Cai and others, led by Chu Guanlin, crossed directly from the edge of the city next to them and arrived at the outskirts of the city on the other side. This place is no different from other areas of the city, but has denser vegetation.

Through the ruins formed by the collapse of some buildings, they saw the road hidden by dense forests and ruins.

It is not built, but a path created by people walking for a long time.

From a distance, I saw a person on a branch extending from the building, seemingly on guard.

Chu Guanlin waved his hand in that direction.

Not long after walking forward, they saw walls built against various buildings.

It can be seen that these walls have been built for many years and have been reinforced many times. You can even see sentry towers used for warning and defense.

Chu Guanlin came to the door quickly. The guard at the door did not immediately relax his vigilance. Instead, he held the homemade simple weapon in his hand and stared at Zhuang Cai and the others behind Chu Guanlin.

Apparently they are very wary of strangers.

Chu Guanlin said quickly: "They are friends and they helped us."

One of the guards said loudly: "I can't make the decision, but I will ask Mr. Chen to come over."

With that said, he got into the camp through the small door on the side.

Chu Guanlin turned his head and said to Zhuang Cai and the others: "Mr. Chen is the leader of our camp. He is also very prestigious among the older generation. He has experienced the era of destruction."

Not long after we chatted, we saw the wooden door of the wall open and an old man in thick clothes walked over, surrounded by several guards.

The old man, known as Mr. Chen, came over and looked at Zhuang Cai and the others.

After nodding kindly, he pulled Chu Guanlin aside and began to ask about some specific situations.

After Chu Guanlin told them all about their experience this time, the man named Mr. Chen frowned and nodded.

He was not surprised by Zhuang Cai's self-proclaimed alien identities.

"Since these are friends, come in, and Chu Guanlin remember to arrange a room for them.

Let's talk again after everyone has taken a short break. "

With that said, they entered the camp. Once inside, Zhuang Cai and others looked at them curiously. Apart from the surrounding walls, the buildings inside had obviously been cleaned.

The highest of these buildings will not exceed 10 floors, and they are all buildings with seven or eight floors.

Although it is a bit old, it is much better than those outside that have been occupied by vegetation.

You can also see huge factory buildings and workshops-like places. It is obvious that this is an area they carefully selected.

Judging from the traces of the camp, they have been here for a long time.

Facing the three Zhuang Cai, everyone in the camp stared at them curiously.

Obviously, in a place that is extremely wary of outsiders, strangers are a very rare existence.

After their rooms were arranged, someone took them to a place like a living room.

In addition to the four people in Chu Guanlin's team, there is also Mr. Chen whom I just met, and a few people I have never seen before. It seems that they should be the leaders of the camp.

After getting ready, the leader, who was called Mr. Chen, glanced at Zhuang Cai and the others and asked: "Let's just trust the introductions of a few of you. After that, I want to ask, what is the purpose of your coming here?" "

"Get rid of the culprit that turned your world into an apocalypse, the source of the symptoms of depravity."

After hearing Zhuang Cai's words, Mr. Chen just nodded silently, showing neither excitement nor disdain.

It was like listening to something ordinary.

He thought for a while and said: "It would be wonderful to save the world. I had this thought when I was young and heard countless such words.

But if you look at our current life and this world, you will know that everything has failed and we are all just waiting for death. "

Zhuang Cai was not very interested in what Mr. Chen said and asked directly: "Do you have any relevant clues?

And depending on your age, you should have experienced the process from a civilized society to a doomsday scene. Can you talk about related things in detail? "

Mr. Chen nodded and said: "Then let me first let you understand our hopeless doomsday society."

"It was about 45 years ago. There are no detailed records of the specific time. Years of running around for our lives have made our time records somewhat inaccurate.

I was only in my 20s at the time, about the same age as you. At that time, a mental illness appeared in society.

That is, ‘fetishism’, treating certain things as the most precious items, even more important than life.

Others want to touch and take it, even violently.

At first no one paid much attention to it, thinking it was just a new mental illness caused by increasing social pressure. Coupled with the fact that it is difficult to determine the medical treatment in this area, this issue has not received much attention. However, when the global outbreak suddenly occurred, it was already too late.

There are many kinds of objects to be obsessed with, ranging from paper and pen to large areas or even a city. "

"When the fetish object becomes ill under these circumstances, it will become extremely aggressive and begin to attack other people.

At that time, I was doing research, and finally I entered the warehouse on the lower floor of the research room with my brothers in the research room, and thus saved my life.

After that, these problems became more and more serious, until people who were affected by the spirit began to show extremely weird changes, just like the monsters in those entertainment works.

Later, some insignificant things happened, but the number of people who were still alive and sane became increasingly rare. "

Having said this, Mr. Chen looked at the three of them and said, "To be honest, it is already a miracle that we people can survive.

So I haven't seen a stranger in a long time. "

After listening to the brief explanation, Zhuang Cai nodded and asked: "That means you didn't know the cause of mental illness until the end?"

Mr. Chen shook his head.

"You didn't have extraordinary powers at that time, so you used the power of technology?"

"Yes, if it hadn't stabilized later and those normal people turned into deformed monsters, we wouldn't have known about the existence of such a thing by accident."

Zhuang Cai nodded, and Rainbow Eyes suddenly asked from the side: "You are very wary of strangers, why is that?"

"The Fallen are safe at this time, as you can see.

As long as you don't get close or say the wrong thing, these degenerates won't do anything.

It was then that we began to choose to build camps and slowly develop outside, trying to revive civilization.

But many of the remaining people joined a cult, and they were all people who longed to become deformed monsters.

In the doomsday scenario, even if people don't suffer from this terrible mental illness, they will already go crazy. "

It's a cult again, and I feel like these evil gods like to play this trick, or that everyone is so easily obsessed with power.

"The cult group... then they must have a target to worship, right? The source of the worship problem?"

Zhuang Cai was a little confused.

After all, when he talked about the topic of evil gods before, they had never heard of it.

Until now it was thought to be a mental illness.

"What they worship is the source. There is no specific individual. The members of these cults are essentially no different from those deformed degenerates. They will turn into degenerates anytime and anywhere.

It's annoying to have brains, but no useful props will appear after death.

There were times when members of a cult would disguise themselves as passers-by and enter the camp to cause damage. "

After hearing this, Zhuang Cai and the others probably understood.

“As for the source you mentioned, the existence you call the evil god, to be honest, we really don’t know.

If you hadn't told us, we might still be in the dark, but if we want to say who is most likely to know, then it must be those cult groups.

Other than that, I really can't think of anywhere else I can provide you with information. "

In this way, everyone exchanged words with each other about the situation of the copy. It was not until night came that they dispersed, and Zhuang Cai and the others finally fully understood the big-character world view of this world.

In the post-apocalyptic scene, there are not many people left.

Logically speaking, based on the current situation, they should be able to develop quickly and revive civilization in this wasteland.

But obviously this is not possible, because their offspring may also be infected with such mental problems.

If there is no good education, any mental gap or abnormal mental state will also cause people to be infected with such mental diseases the day after tomorrow.

Under multi-faceted suppression, their population will never grow.

But with such a doomsday scene, how can it be possible to have so much energy to consolidate everyone’s mental state?

Obviously such a requirement cannot be met, and even with good education and observation, accidents may occur and are completely unavoidable.

Coupled with the problem of the Fallen, they must also use these Fallen items to fight or for other purposes.

How could these items with strange uses be left unused? For these people, problems would be more likely to arise once they are used too much.

In this endless cycle, the population will never grow, and it may be drastically reduced if an accident occurs.

The population is permanently fixed here. Under such circumstances, the people in the camp have little hope of survival.

When hope is lost, everyone's heart becomes lifeless, making it easier for problems to arise.

Zhuang Cai and the others were not surprised by this. After all, the evil god who was the source of the problem was safe and sound.

The reason why these human beings are not dead is probably because the evil god kept them in captivity and does not want all living people in this world to die.

"The four of you are a reconnaissance team. Do you know where the so-called cult group is?"

Zhuang Cai asked.

They also felt that this cult group might be the most likely to know the situation of the evil god. No matter how they went to find out about it, it would definitely be the fastest way.

Much faster than them wandering around.

Zhuang Cai was roughly certain that the evil god should be in this city, but this city was indeed a bit too big.

According to Mr. Chen, this city was once the most famous city in the country.

It is now an abandoned ruin after the apocalypse. and all kinds of growing plants, which only make the city more difficult to navigate.

Chu Guanlin got a map for Zhuang Cai and the others, and then marked some information on it.

For example, there are gathering places somewhere, although they are very few in number, there are cult groups somewhere, and there are relatively dangerous degenerates somewhere.

Just like the fallen ones in the dense forest they met this time, these fallen ones have a certain sense of territory. If they wander around at will, problems are likely to arise.

After taking the map, Zhuang Cai thanked him and took Rainbow Tong and the two of them towards the room they arranged to live in during the day.

…

In the early morning of the next day, Zhuang Cai and the others left the camp early.

In the camp, the leaders of all the camps gathered together and were communicating.

"They have already left. If nothing else, they should be looking for the gathering place of those cult groups.

How likely are you to what they said? "

A man who also looked quite young looked at Mr. Chen and asked.

Mr. Chen just shook his head and looked at Chu Guanlin: "What do you think?"

"Me? I might... agree with what they say."

"Including them saying they are aliens?" asked a strange man.

Chu Guanlin nodded: "Yes, you may not have witnessed the strength they displayed with your own eyes.

With every one of them, I felt that they could easily control the entire camp, and we didn't even have the power to fight back. "

He recounted the battle his family went through after meeting Zhuang Cai and the others yesterday afternoon.

He emphatically told everyone how exaggerated Zhuang Cai's strength was when fighting.

After the narration was completed, everyone became quiet.

"Okay, if it's true, why did they come now? And why at this time? And why do they want to target the evil god they said."

"Evil God... I never thought in my whole life that what affects us is not disease, but this kind of story-like thing." Mr. Chen couldn't help but sigh.

Compared with the young people in the camp, people like him who have experienced that era and have stayed until now have never thought about this issue.

But when I know the exact problem, I won't be surprised. Maybe I have already had this idea in my mind, but I just don't have any evidence.

"In any case, this shouldn't be considered a bad thing. After all, if they are so strong, we won't even have a chance to fight back. Since they behave kindly, we shouldn't do anything that goes beyond their limits.

If they can actually address the source of what they say, that would be a good thing for us, and wouldn't it be exactly what we want. "

Everyone present nodded involuntarily at these words, and some young people even had some hope in their eyes.

Only the older people remained calm, and they would not become excited until the facts emerged.

On the other side, Zhuang Cai and the others had entered the streets of the city through the map.

Then they saw two different deformed monsters chasing each other, and the one being chased was holding an ordinary flag.

The monster he was chasing was empty, and he was screaming and roaring as he chased him like crazy.

"That should be the kind of monster they say, who loses his own belongings and robs others?"

Is it okay to rob other similar items when the items I have placed my spirit on are no longer there?

If you think about it carefully, it's okay. After all, if you want an object to be diseased, it must be diseased.

Now look at these deformed monsters. They have already passed the stage of onset and have become their final appearance. Naturally, you don’t need anything that you agree with in your heart.

But why does it have to be an item that other monsters are obsessed with? "

Although they were chatting, the three of them didn't seem to notice it. They didn't want to care about it and flew directly over their heads.

The focus now is to find the cult group and see if they really know about some evil gods. (End of chapter)
