Chapter 147: Act III: The Sword of Heroes(1/2)
Jeff continued to say with a look of reverence:
"The Savior has saved the world from dangers several times, but he is extremely mysterious. The dragon never sees its tail. What is carved in this statue is the scene when the Savior first appeared in front of the Salvation Army. It is said that it was beside a corn field. , the Savior revealed the truth of the entire world and the universe to the earliest batch of Salvation Army, which is known as field evangelism in history.”
Shen Feng remained silent. The scene shown in the sculpture in front of him was the scene where he appeared for the first time in "Real Doomsday Game 1.0" and revealed the truth of the doomsday to those elite players.
Unexpectedly, in this parallel world, all of this would be praised as a holy miracle.
"What happened next? Why didn't the savior defeat the Gray Tide and save the world?" Shen Feng then asked.
There was a sad look on Jeff's face and he said: "Then the Savior suddenly disappeared... Some Salvation Army soldiers speculated that the Savior might have encountered an accident, or maybe he was disappointed with human civilization and went into seclusion... But he had already sown the seeds. He became the fire of the battle. When the Gray Tide broke out, the Salvation Army never stopped fighting! His spirit and soul will remain here forever!"
When he said the last sentence, Jeff's eyes seemed to sparkle with light.
Shen Feng nodded and said nothing more.
He must find out the real reason why he disappeared at the end of the Gray Tide to avoid making the same mistake again.
After the introduction, Jeff said hello to Shen Feng and went to patrol first.
I accompanied Shen Feng on this journey not only out of enthusiasm, but also to observe the character of this outsider.
So far, he seems to be a normal person.
After all, in this cruel apocalyptic environment, mankind has a common enemy, the Gray Tide. Even the most vicious people will put away their antisocial personality after coming to live here.
If you really don't know how to behave, the security guards will naturally serve you with bullets.
"Go to the city hall to register your identity file. They also have a camera there that can take pictures for you so that no one will remember you after you die." Jeff said from a distance, "The city hall is just a few dozen meters ahead. Kilometers, you can ride a bicycle there. If you don’t have a place to sleep at night, you can find a temporary empty room.”
After hearing what Jeff said, Shen Feng discovered that there were actually some bicycles parked randomly on the surrounding streets.
Some of these bikes are still brand new, obviously just made.
From time to time, someone would ride a bicycle and set off, or park the bicycle somewhere.
It is somewhat similar to shared bicycles.
But here, it is obviously public property, and no one takes it for themselves.
Obviously, in the cemetery city of Gray Tide Cemetery, because people are always at risk, they have downplayed the concept of private ownership. In addition, food sources are relatively abundant, and many things have become public property.
After all, so what if you have more property?
Maybe everything will be swallowed up by the gray tide the next day.
Looking around, most of the people he could see had kind smiles on their faces, and they were extremely sincere and helpful to each other.
Under the heavy pressure of the gray tide and the problem of lack of resources, these surviving humans broke out with great unity.
Everyone understands that only by uniting together and performing their respective duties can the operation of the grave city be guaranteed to the maximum extent and the time of being engulfed by the gray tide be delayed as long as possible.
After all, no one knows whether one day those nanomachines will no longer be afraid of electromagnetic pulses.
By that time, they will not be able to escape the fate of being devoured.
town Hall.
This is a good place...
Those photo files are extremely important to Shen Feng.
"Jingwei, do you remember the appearance of Arthur Seldon? Let's deduce the appearance of his descendants."
"No problem, this is all trivial." Jingwei said confidently.
When he first entered Galen Seldon's chief consul's office, there were two pictures hanging on the wall, which were pictures of Arthur Seldon and his wife.
Deducing the appearance of an offspring through two direct blood relatives is about as difficult for Jingwei as it is for a doctoral student to solve elementary school math problems.
Shen Feng rode a bicycle and wandered towards the city hall.
The entire cemetery is said to be dozens of kilometers long, but in fact it is not very large.
Especially for a person like Shen Feng who has undergone special physical evolution.
Moreover, the city hall is not far from the town where he is located.
In addition to asking for directions and checking out the customs and customs of Fengcheng, it took Shen Feng more than three hours to arrive at the city hall of Fengcheng.
There is no difference between day and night here. People judge the time entirely by a few towering mechanical clocks.
When Shen Feng came to the city hall, it was already midnight here, and the staff inside had already closed their doors and got off work.
The entire cemetery city became very quiet, and most people had fallen asleep.
There's not even a lock on the door here. After all, generally speaking, no one would think about those files. After all, they have no meaning at all.
It's just like a living person's epitaph, just in case of emergency.
Shen Feng pushed open the door and quickly found the location of the archives.
All the files are neatly arranged and the paper used is handmade.
The precious camera was placed in a room with the city hall's computers and other electronic equipment. The entire room was sealed with lead sheets to block electromagnetic pulses from outside and protect these electronic equipment.
This place itself is also the place where the electromagnetic pulse is the weakest in the entire cemetery, so everything is preserved.
Shen Feng took a deep breath and began to flip through the files.
Everyone's file is just a piece of paper, joined together with other people's files to form a book.
Shen Feng directly picked up a file and flipped through the pages quickly, looking only at the photos above.
Each photo only stayed in front of his eyes for a moment, but that was enough.
His silicon-based brain began to work like crazy, working with Jingwei to analyze these photos to match the looks of Arthur Horton and his wife.
There are three hundred people in each volume, and there are almost seven hundred volumes in total. It took Shen Feng thirty seconds to flip through one volume, and it took him a whole night. When the door of the city hall heard the sound of someone walking in, Shen Feng put down the book. I picked up the last file, took a deep breath, and walked out.
Seeing Shen Feng walking out of the archives, people outside were a little surprised. They asked a few questions, but got no answer. They just thought he was a weirdo.
At this time, Shen Feng had memorized all the information of more than 200,000 people in his mind. After a night of typing and sorting, he selected seven people who were suspected to be descendants of Arthur Horton.
The addresses and origins of these people, whether true or false, were all remembered by him.
However, after a night of no rest, his biological brain was very tired at this time.
He randomly found an empty house and slept for a while. He also exchanged a pistol and bullets in his backpack for some supplies. After eating a fish soup rice, Shen Feng regained his energy slightly, and then immediately started working non-stop. Searched in the cemetery.
The first person he found was an old man who was dying. Shen Feng chatted with him for a few words and found out that he was a hibernator who had been awake for more than ten years. Before he went into hibernation, he was older than Arthur Seldon. .
The second one was an optimistic young man who was considered a native of Grave City. After carefully observing his appearance and bones, Shen Feng discovered that the other man had Indian ancestry and could trace it back four or five generations, so he immediately chose to give up.
The next few are also not very optimistic. They are either middle-aged women who have just woken up from the dormant chamber for two or three years, or they obviously have characteristics that are inconsistent with Arthur Seldon.
Finally, Shen Feng came to a blacksmith shop on the edge of the cemetery, looking for the last person with a similar appearance.
A little boy of twelve or thirteen years old.
An orphan living alone.
According to file records and what people around him said, this little boy was born and raised in Grave City, but last year his parents went out on an expedition together and seemed to have encountered a construction machine. They never came back since then, leaving only this poor boy. child.
Fortunately, the child had a strong ability to take care of himself and was very strong and intelligent. He found a job in a blacksmith shop in the city and was able to barely survive.
"Hello, I'm looking for Turman. Is he here?" Shen Feng stepped into the noisy blacksmith shop and asked.
A shirtless strong man glanced at him and then shouted loudly: "Turman, someone is looking for you!"
Then there was a sound of footsteps, and a boy with a fair face and freckles ran out of the back room.
His eyes were blue and his expression was a little timid.
The moment he saw the child, Shen Feng already understood that this boy was the descendant of Arthur Seldon he was looking for!
so similar!
Not only that, but that intuition and feeling!
Shen Feng smiled slightly and said to Turman: "Turman? Can you take a step to speak?"
Turman glanced at Shen Feng curiously and followed him out of the blacksmith shop.
Although he was only twelve or thirteen years old, Turman looked quite strong at this time due to his long-term blacksmithing life.
Shen Feng stared into Turman's eyes, scrutinizing him, and asked, "Where are you from? Do you remember what happened before you came to Cemetery City?"
Turman was stunned and asked: "Who are you? I...I have lived in the Grave City since I was a child, and I have never left here."
Shen Feng suddenly took a step forward, raised his hand and grabbed the little boy's hand, and looked at it carefully.
Turman was startled, and just as he was about to pull his arm back, Shen Feng had already let go in advance and said with a smile: "I'm sorry for frightening you."
At this time, Shen Feng had completely confirmed his judgment.
This feeling is really too familiar.
Turman looked at Shen Feng, turned around and went back to blacksmithing, too lazy to pay attention to this weirdo.
At this moment, sirens suddenly sounded throughout the cemetery!
Then he saw clusters of black nanomachines falling directly from the metal dome.
Immediately after landing, it scattered in all directions, acting as a buffer, and tall and tall humanoid construction machines appeared in the middle.
