The frozen banquet hall, the men and women in Chinese costumes turned into ice sculptures, the mid-course dinner and the cheering band interrupted during the performance-all these strangely make people goose bumps. Faced with this situation, Hao Ren couldn't help but stunned for a few seconds: "It seems that the party suddenly died halfway through the party."
Nanong March 8 came forward to check the clues left at the scene. Although the people here may have been dead for hundreds of thousands of years, because of the vacuum and ultra-low temperature protection, everything in the entire banquet hall has been preserved intact, and even the food in the cups and trays has been well preserved by frost. Most of the things are fixed on the table or the ground due to ice, and some debris that has fallen off the ice layer are floating in the air in a gravity-free environment. A thin particle like mist is in the hall. Suspended, it was broken ice chips and fragments of human skin.
In fact, the same thing floats in the outside space, but here, the suspended matter is extremely dense.
"Costumes, banquets, I really can't imagine that they died in this situation," Nangong Sanba carefully separated a body that was turned into an ice sculpture from the thin ice on the table. "... Sure enough, they died. I also inhaled the same chemical before. "
Nangong Wuyue couldn't help swallowing: "Aren't people in the whole city killed by poison gas?"
"Any other doubts besides poisonous gas? Is there any problem with the food?" Hao Ren asked casually.
"Food should be no problem, at least it is non-toxic according to my standards, and the problem is not related to food according to the scene," Nangong Sanba shook his head. "In addition, according to the perception of Demon Hunter, there is no entanglement in the dark and cold Negative forces, which means that these people did not suffer much pain before they died. "
Hao Ren nodded and bent down to observe the deceased persons closest to him. His attention soon fell on one of the male bodies: the deceased looked old, and he wore a solemn black gown that was only useful for high-end banquets. Beautiful dress is also luxurious compared to it. Obviously this man was a nobleman before his death. But Hao Ren's attention was not on the dress, but the man's hands clasped together, there seemed to be something hidden there. Hao Ren wanted to carefully remove the relic from the deceased's hand, but just as hard as he could, the male deceased's fingers, which had been frozen into ice, turned into dust crystals in a vacuum.
Hao Ren groaned apologetically and pulled out a mass of cloth like a handkerchief from under the opponent's broken palm.
He unfolded his handkerchief and found that it was indeed written and written very neatly. Obviously, those who left these last words had enough time. With the help of the translation plugin, these characters were quickly reorganized and parsed, the content is like this:
"... Roman, my proudest son, the glorious heir of the Emerald Valley family, I hope you are well on the Long Night Horn and still proudly lead and protect your people. Me and your mother Attending a special banquet, I think you have guessed the content of this banquet. However, do n’t worry about us, this is a pleasant event, both in terms of food and drinks are satisfactory. Use hometown belt The mellow wine here is a good choice for us to see you off, but very few people have tasted this kind of beverage made from plants instead of factory synthesis. I am very happy that I can still taste this kind of thing in this life. Your mother is sitting Next to me, and your uncle Lyon is playing the famous song of Master Oran Locke on the stage, I believe that many and many years ago, our family's ancestors also had dinner under such circumstances and prayed for our leaders Of ...
"Roman, my son, I have a lot to tell you, including about the things we were thinking about after our last quarrel, but these are not important anymore. I heard two empty echoes from I heard from the sky over the city that the two most critical equipment should have been shut down. Next is the time to enjoy food, wine and music quietly. Please allow your father to stop writing here and leave the time to us elderly people.
"Oh, the smell of that thing is a bit like blue chrysanthemum."
The message on the handkerchief is over here. Vivian looked at it and said, "What is this?"
"Looks like a suicide note?" Hao Ren frowned, "An old man wrote to his son. It seems that people here know what is going to happen."
The following clues prove Hao Ren ’s speculation. Nangong Sanba and Nangong Wuyue found some other things written on other bodies. These words written on handkerchiefs or napkins clearly confirmed the city. What happened here is not an accident or any other sudden event.
Instead, a well-prepared collective suicide.
Hao Ren and his party left this strange banquet hall. They came to the streets of the city inside the ship and started to follow a main road leading to the end of the spherical shell space. At the end of this main road is the stopped one. , It looks like a huge weird machine like a cylindrical mountain. Hao Ren thinks that it should be the control center of the spaceship, at least it is also an equally important place, and some clues can be found there.
And along the way, they found countless bodies that turned into ice sculptures. None of the city ’s former residents survived. Together with the city, they became part of the ruins in a cold vacuum. After the Nangong March 8 Examination, the cause of death was the same for everyone: inhalation of neurotoxic gas.
And the careful Vivian also found some additional clues: she found that most of the bodies were wearing brand-new clothes, and the stiff ice corpses were all neatly dressed, with bright shoes and hats, and a calm and elegant expression on her face, like Going to a grand banquet. Although not everyone can enjoy the feast and music in the magnificent big house, these residents still take out their best clothes and food as much as possible before they die. Obviously, they want to be extravagant for the last time.
"Like euthanasia after a carnival," Lily rubbed his arms around, "They ate and drank, and then filled the entire city with poisonous gas, so they died in their sleep. . "
Hao Ren was attracted by the description of Lily. His eyes passed through the thin dust above this shimmering city and landed on the inverted buildings at the other end of the closed earth. He imagined this place at the last moment. Scene: When the system is in a hurry, the city ’s atmospheric system is blown with deadly nerve gas. When the sweet, psychedelic psychedelic gas fills the streets and alleys, people wear the best clothes and walk on the streets to enjoy The last joy in this life. Some people are eating gluttonous meals, some are drinking good wine, some are saying goodbye to their lovers, and some are ...
He passed an empty street and saw an old man sitting beside the flower bed. The old man was wearing a tall top hat and covered with a layer of frost. The flower bed behind him was still lush. Those plants were frozen before they withered, and now they became a crystal clear crystal flower bush. With a smile on his face, the old man was reaching forward. He was holding a fake flower folded with a handkerchief in his hand, as if to hand it to a child who no longer exists.
Some people are bringing the last bit of warmth to this dying city.
"The death time of all people is the same, and the cause of death is the same," said ASanbaA, which just checked the age of several corpses. "It happened about a thousand years ago. The situation at that time has been easily restored. Out: The nerve system was blown into the starship ark ’s atmospheric system, killing everyone in a short period of time, and these dead people are fully aware of this. This is probably the common wish of all citizens, and they are still Have fun before death. "
Nangong Wuyue voice is low: "Why do they do this?"
Hao Ren said the easiest possibility: "It ’s probably that the spacecraft has a fatal problem that cannot be repaired, such as an air leak or a problem with the purification system, or the resources have bottomed out. In order to avoid pain, they decided to be euthanized. . "
"But this fleet can have more than one spaceship," Vivian reminded, "Do other ships encounter the same problem at the same time?"
Hao Ren did n’t know how to answer it, but he found that the giant machine like a cylindrical metal peak was already in front of him: "There should be a clue over there."
A group of people stopped at the foot of a giant machine. They found that the size of this thing was larger than previously thought. It can really be said to be a tall mountain. Looking at the appearance of this device, the tail of Lily is unconscious in the air. The ground bent into a question mark: "It looks like a giant reactor Oh, but it seems to be shut down?" (To be continued.)
