Dark Moon Era

Chapter 41: pre-civilization

Views:

This number made Tang Ling slightly regretful.

It turns out that in the face of powerful instruments, my precise instincts are somewhat inferior.

But Su Yao had a strange look on his face. He had a complex expression of excitement, heavyness, and nostalgia. His rough hands touched the screen displaying the numbers as if they were touching the most precious treasure.

Tang Ling clearly saw that Su Yao's fingers were trembling slightly.

"Do it again." Su Yao said, but his voice obviously changed.

Tang Ling repeated it directly without being verbose.

The result remained unchanged. He could accurately estimate his own strength, but of course it was still not as good as the instrument in front of him.

"Come again" After hesitating for a second, Su Yao made a repeated request, but his voice was completely out of his control, as if it was squeezed out of his throat.

Of course Tang Ling did as he was told.

But after getting the same result again, Su Yao was completely stunned.

His narrowed eyes were slightly red, and the corners of his mouth trembled. Sometimes they would rise slightly, looking excited and happy, and sometimes they would tighten, as if they were sad.

Tang Ling was extremely surprised and had to ask cautiously: "Uncle Su Yao, do you still need to try again?"

Su Yao suddenly came to his senses, but did not answer any of Tang Ling's questions. Instead, he strode up to Tang Ling and hugged Tang Ling tightly.

Su Yao was extremely powerful, even more so when he was excited.

Tang Ling was hugged by Su Yao and felt that the air in his chest was about to be squeezed out. He couldn't help coughing.

Facing this man who was like a ferocious beast, he deeply felt that he had no room for resistance.

Perhaps it was Tang Ling's cough that reminded Su Yao of his gaffe.

He finally let go of Tang Ling, but his excitement still made him couldn't help but slap Tang Ling on the shoulder twice, almost knocking Tang Ling into the ground.

"Very good, this ability is very good." He said.

But the weird feeling still lingered in Tang Ling's heart. In his eyes, this was not a magical ability. As for what made Uncle Su Yao so excited

He wanted to ask, but Su Yao had already taken two deep breaths to calm down.

"Your growth is not satisfactory, but don't worry, you will get stronger."

Is your growth potential just unsatisfactory? This made Tang Ling very concerned and he had forgotten the weird feeling just now.

In fact, Tang Ling didn't know what growth was? But Su Yao cares so much and brought him here specifically for testing. It must be something more important than basic values, such as current strength and speed.

Not strong yourself

"You don't have to be confident. I told you, you will become stronger. As long as you can grow up safely, you will be very strong." But compared to Tang Ling, Su Yao was not disappointed at all. Instead, he looked confident. Make him look extremely flying.

"But" Tang Ling's heart was about to explode. One inexplicable puzzle with no answer was unfolding in his life. Should it continue like this

"No buts!" Su Yao's expression suddenly became extremely solemn. He just said one sentence to Tang Ling: "Keep it secret! I'm talking about your abilities!"

Tang Ling fell silent.

It seems that this kind of life shrouded in fog is going to continue like this.

**

After several days of heavy rain.

After Safety Zone 17 cleared up in the afternoon three days ago, the sunshine was like a revenge, shining freely and extremely strongly.

According to the division of seasons, early summer has passed and midsummer is coming.

And summer is supposed to be so hot.

Therefore, just putting on this uniform, which belonged to a preparatory soldier, made Tang Ling feel like it was hard to breathe.

Although, it was still early morning, and even the sky was not fully lit yet.

"Are you going to take the exam like this?" Tang Ling packed his luggage one last time and put on his backpack.

He didn't have anything extra. Except for the relics of his mother-in-law and sister, the only clothes Su Yao gave him were the clothes he had worn in the settlement.

He was not willing to throw it away, it was also a memory.

The reason for organizing it this way was because Tang Ling didn't feel at ease. He wanted to wait for Su Yao to see if he would show up in the end.

The truth is disappointing.

There were no footsteps outside the door, the door was not opened, and Su Yao did not appear.

He is missing.

To be precise, he was never seen again after taking Tang Ling to the so-called training base.

Everything after that was taken care of by the cook of this small hotel for Tang Ling.

It's like Tang Ling's three meals a day, some basic introduction to Safety Zone 17, and the specific location and time of today's exam.

The most important thing is that the cook gave Tang Ling a library card with extremely high authority. With it, Tang Ling could enter the inner city library behind the wall and read to his heart's content without time or quantity restrictions.

Of course, these are books that can be borrowed within the scope of the library card.

Even so, Tang Ling felt like he was in a hurry.

For three days, except for eating and less than six hours of sleep last night, he spent all his time in the library.

But the vast sea of books is so interesting. His powerful brain with precise instincts, reading at the fastest speed, can only read a small part of the books in the library.

Although it was just like this, Tang Ling felt that for the first time he was a little closer to the world.

He first knew the true pre-civilization.

It turns out that not only does it exist, but civilization has developed to an extremely high level.

They explored space and even landed on the 'Purple Moon'.

They have various types of buildings with different functions, which are of extremely high level and have developed architecture.

They have magical means of transportation called cars, planes, and ships

They also have a rich spiritual world - movies, reading, TV

And there is - weapons!

What an eye-catching existence! Unimaginable power. If we had these weapons, would survival in this era still be a problem

Tang Ling thought like this and also thought of Quark's explosives and Desert Eagle (pistol). Now he knew what these two things were.

It turns out that in previous civilizations, these two things were nothing.

But Tang Ling had no clue, and the answer was confusing.

Just because in previous civilizations, humans were the conquerors, any animal could be easily exterminated as long as humans were willing.

Although compared between the two, even the most ferocious beasts in previous civilizations look like a joke in today's era.

But can this be a reason for the extinction of previous civilizations

Tang Ling didn't think that the terrifying nuclear weapons, various fighter jets, etc. couldn't fight animals, even the so-called mutant beasts and vicious beasts.

Tang Ling thought of the black-horned and purple-striped snake in the underground passage.

If so, how did previous civilizations become extinct? Tang Ling was puzzled.

What makes it even more difficult for him to understand is that the previous civilization was almost destroyed suddenly, leaving people who were unprepared to be civilized. How was the current civilization established

It is so contradictory, just like what Su Yaoshu said - "This era is very dull. Sometimes it makes me feel close to the universe, and sometimes it feels like I have returned to barbarism."
