Doomsday Drifting Begins with Shipbuilding

Chapter 238 Tianshuang Plateau
Just in the distance, on the snowy ground, rose a slump of dilapidated bungalows, lost to their original colors and bungalow style, shrouded in frost and snow.

A small part of it has collapsed, leaving only ruins.

Apparently this was once a city.

But the buildings should have been deserted long ago, and there was dilapidation and dead silence everywhere.

What city is this?

Such mountains, such scale.

Could it be Tianshuang Plateau?
After all, Tianshuang Plateau is the world's leading plateau system, and Tianshuang Mountain is the highest mountain in the world, with the most dangerous peaks.

As the highest Tianshuang Mountain in the world, it attracts many people to climb every year. Countless climbing enthusiasts regard conquering Tianshuang Mountain as their lifelong pursuit.

And in the process, countless strange legends were born.

The most famous is the wonder of fairies.

It is said that many people have seen the phantoms of fairies dancing in the sky in Tianshuang Mountain.

This also adds a touch of mystery to Tianshuang Mountain.

However, although the possibility of Tianshuang Plateau is very high, it is not easy to draw a conclusion.

I have been floating on the sea for so long, who knows where I ran to.

After the end of the world, it is very possible that the situation on the surface of the earth will change.

And at the moment it seems that it should be impossible to find local people to confirm their guess.

The heavy snow also covered up all the traces, making it impossible for him to distinguish them.

It is important to find fuel as soon as possible.

In these bungalows, some materials should be found.

Chen Xuan put away the Crab Armor knife and slowly approached the city.

When he came to these bungalows, he found that these bungalows were just the tops of tall buildings. The once tall buildings were covered by thick snow and turned into what they are today.

Due to the extremely cold climate, the glass windows outside the building had been turned into ashes. When Chen Xuan came to a floor-to-ceiling window, he just bent slightly and easily entered.

Entering the building, there is also a thick layer of snow on the floor, and the room is dry and quiet. I don't know if all the furniture and sundries have become the same as the glass.

Or it has already been evacuated.

Chen Xuan continued to look around for the stairs, wanting to see if there would be anything left in the floors below.

After some searching, the stairs were found, but they were already blocked by snow.

Judging from this, it is estimated that the situation of these surrounding buildings is similar.

The idea of ​​digging things out of the ruins is obviously not going to work.

Coming out of the building, Chen Xuan looked around.

Since there are cities, there must be humans nearby.

Although the current climate is indeed too harsh, he believes that with human wisdom, there will always be a way to survive.

Chen Xuan continued to go further inland.

Along the way, he saw some dilapidated ruins, also some buildings.

Chen Xuan tried to search in it several times at first, but found nothing.

At the back, he was too lazy to go in.

Now he only hopes to meet a wild beast, and let him slaughter it with a knife and boil it into "oil".

However, after more than two hours, Chen Xuan still didn't find anything.

Suddenly, his ears moved slightly.

[Spirit] After advanced, his ears can almost be called windward ears, and he can hear sounds from far away.

At this moment he heard a faint sound, as if some people were talking.

Words such as "wind and snow" and "cold" were mentioned.

Sure enough, there are survivors!
He knew that human beings would always find a way to survive.

It is much better to learn about the situation through local people than to fumble by yourself.

Chen Xuan was refreshed, he quickly concentrated his consciousness and focused on his ears.

And the voice of the conversation became clearer.

"You said, how many of us can be elected in this conference?"

"I heard it's not easy, but Dolma can definitely do it."

"Sister Zhuoma, we will all point to you from now on, don't forget us when you become famous."

"It's really useless, just pointing at Zhuoma, they are all old men, and they don't know how to work harder."

"It's okay, Brother Tashi, I'm glad to help everyone."

It seems that there are many people who are talking all over the place.

And from the sound of it, it should be a group of young people.

But, what is the psionic master they are talking about?
And psionic teaching, what else?
Could it be what the locals call mutant energy?
Chen Xuan touched his chin, his curiosity suddenly aroused.

All in all, right now, hurry up and ask about the situation.

Following the direction of the sound, he quickly moved over.

Soon, he saw a group of people dressed in brown fur clothes, all of them looked tall and strong.

found it.

There are five people in the group, three men and two women. The men are all tall and strong, not less than 1.8 meters five, and the girls are relatively thinner, but they also have a height of more than 1.7 meters.

Chen Xuan approached quickly, and then stopped them.

"Hey, friend, please stop."

"Fuck!"

Because Chen Xuan's body was completely white, he almost blended into the snow, and when he suddenly heard his shout, these people were terrified.

And when they came back to their senses, followed the voice, and saw Chen Xuan's attire, their eyes became astonished, and they began to look up and down Chen Xuan.

These people couldn't be blamed for being surprised. Although they were all wearing clothes made of animal skins, they were only brown, and the workmanship looked much rougher than Chen Xuan's.

After system optimization, Chen Xuan's bearskin suit was as exquisite as a mink coat, and it was also a rare white color. Among such a group of rough-dressed people, it was naturally set off extremely conspicuously.

"Please ask..."

"Brother, look at your attire, you are from Orion Village, right? But your clothes are so handsome, are all the masters so good now?"

Before Chen Xuan finished speaking, a tall and thin young man spoke first.

In this group of people, he is considered the fairer one.

Orion Village?
It seems that these people think of themselves as locals.

Chen Xuan was about to introduce himself.

"I……"

"Brother, you are also here to participate in the Tianshuang plateau psionic master selection meeting, so we can be companions together. My name is Tashi, and we are both from Tianshuang City."

Tianshuang City?
Chen Xuan's heart skipped a beat.

"However, although the people in Orion Village are all in good shape, people with strong physiques generally don't have the qualifications to practice spiritual power."

Before he could speak, another person spoke again.

Judging from the conversation heard before, this should be the person named Dolma.

Zhuoma's figure was thinner than the others, but the workmanship of the clothes was obviously much better.

When other people heard Zhuoma's words, they also looked at Chen Xuan, with regret in their eyes.

"It's a pity, brother, you may have to make this trip for nothing."

"Brother, do you want to change your clothes? I'll offer 100 kilograms of beef. How about it? This price should be pretty good."

At this time, a thick-skinned man with a dark complexion suddenly said that since he saw Chen Xuan, this man had been staring at him all the time, making his heart shudder.

"Go, go, do you think this dress is easy to get? It should be made of the fur of snow wolves. Snow wolves are not easy to kill. I heard from my father that even the snow bee village next door is difficult. Killed a snow wolf."

Tashi said like a cannonball, it can be seen that he should be the one who knows the most among this group of people.

"Is it so rare?" Hearing this, the black-faced man was startled.

"After all, they are from Orion Village, they are indeed powerful." Everyone nodded.

Uh……

Only Chen Xuan's face was filled with speechlessness.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't have time to speak.

No one listened to him at all, okay?

However, he finally figured out where he was.

This is indeed the Tianshuang Plateau!

I really didn't expect that I ran so far.

At the beginning, the military of Beifeng Plateau wanted to try to go to Tianshuang Plateau, but it was blocked by the ice sea in the northwest.

Unexpectedly, the Tianshuang Plateau, which was once hopeless to reach, is now under his feet.

The Tianshuang Plateau is in the northwest of the North Wind Plateau, which means that as long as you sail northeast from here, you should be able to return to the North Wind Plateau.

Then you can reserve fuel and check the local situation by the way.

When the fuel reserves are sufficient, they can cross the sea of ​​ice and return to the North Wind Plateau.

Chen Xuan's mind was spinning, and after a while, he had already thought about the plan for the future.

Seeing Chen Xuan bowed his head and said nothing, Tashi thought that Chen Xuan was secretly sad, so he comforted him.

"Brother, it's okay. I guess many people won't be selected. It's not bad for us to watch the fun together."

"Yes, brother, the selection meeting should be very interesting."

Chen Xuan still wanted to say something, but the rest of the people had already started to fall into a heated discussion.

Forget it, that's fine.

Then follow along to see the psionicist selection conference, maybe there is something special to discover.

Next, Chen Xuan stopped talking and followed these people slowly.

Along the way, Tashi and the others were still chatting eagerly, mostly about the bad weather and their longing for becoming a psionic master.

On the way, you can also see large-scale protrusions on the snow, which are obviously man-made products, and I don't know what they are for.

Although Chen Xuan was puzzled in his heart, he also knew that it was impossible for him to intervene in these chatterboxes, so he wisely kept silent.

Gradually, a tall and majestic square tower building appeared in front of my eyes.

This square tower is pure white in color and stands on a hillside. What is commendable is that although the square tower in front of you is also covered with a layer of snow, it miraculously did not collapse.

Although Chen Xuan had never been to the Tianshuang Plateau, he had heard about the reputation of the Sunshine Tower. After all, it was recorded in history textbooks.

The Sunshine Pagoda is actually a temple. It has inherited ancient religious culture from ancient times to the present. It has a long history. It was once the administrative center of Tianshuang Plateau.

It's just that with the development of science and technology, the ancient Sunrise Tower is not suitable for renovation as a cultural heritage, and it has become a simple temple again.

I really didn't expect that after the end of the world, those sturdy high-rise buildings have been reduced to ruins, but such an old building as the Sunrise Tower has been preserved. I really don't know how it was done.

So, the selection meeting is going to be held here?
In front of the Sunrise Tower is a large courtyard, roughly half the size of a football field.

At the moment, the courtyard is a dark place, full of people.

However, the scene was very quiet, everyone kept silent by coincidence, even the chatterboxes around Chen Xuan also closed their mouths, but their eyes were very excited.

Chen Xuan looked around curiously.

The people in the courtyard were all dressed in clothes made of various animal skins, in various colors, some had the same brown clothes as Zhuoma and others, and some had gray clothes.

On the contrary, there are fewer people in white clothes like myself.

Sure enough, as Zhuoma and the others said, white animal skins are quite rare.

After a while, an old man in gray robe slowly walked out of the temple door.

The old man was stooped, and the wide gray robe with a hood covered his whole body, only his face was exposed.

There is no beard on the face, but the chaotic wrinkles on it are silently telling the years the old man has experienced.

And a pair of eyes seemed to reveal the light of wisdom.

However, what surprised Chen Xuan the most was the clothes the old man was wearing.

It's not that the material and style of the clothes are so special. On the contrary, the gray robe worn by the old man is quite simple. Before the end of the world, it is estimated that you can buy the same style for 20 yuan.

The problem is that the gray robe has only a thin layer, and in the past, it was considered an autumn garment at most.

But what environment is this now?
The temperature is at least tens of degrees below zero, or even hundreds of degrees.

With such a thin robe, isn't this old man too cold?

Or, has this person's physique evolved to a certain level?

Chen Xuan quickly shook his head.

This figure doesn't look like it.

After the evolutionary advanced, the body will definitely become stronger. Although it can't reach the level of those professional bodybuilders with big muscles, it looks much stronger than ordinary people.

The old man's figure is quite thin, and his physique should not have evolved.

What is the reason?
Could this be the spiritual power that Dolma and the others were talking about?
Just when Chen Xuan was secretly wondering, the old man spoke slowly.

"The time has come. Next, the selection meeting will officially begin."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan became interested in an instant. For the time being, he did not think about how the old man would fight the cold, and waited for the next thing with great interest.

I don't know what the selection method is exactly?

And the old man continued.

"Everyone relax, you may feel a little dizzy for a while, but don't be afraid, this is normal."

As soon as the words fell, the old man closed his eyes, and Chen Xuan instantly felt an invisible sense of oppression spreading from the old man's body, as if it was a wave of the sea.

Under the pressure of the old man, the faces of the people around him turned pale for a while, as if they had been punched.

However, Chen Xuan didn't feel anything.

Is this psionic power?

And just when the old man's power passed by Chen Xuan, the old man's originally calm expression suddenly changed, and a touch of shock emerged.

Chen Xuan, who had been watching the old man closely, naturally noticed the change in the old man.

This made him a little uneasy.

Did the old man discover something?
While thinking wildly, the old man has already withdrawn the released power.

Then, he glanced around, and finally his eyes fixed on Chen Xuan.

"That boy over there, you are very nice."

The old man pointed.

"Big...Master, you...are you talking about me...me?"

Tashi stammered, the sudden surprise made him feel dizzy.

Looking at the envious eyes of the people on the left and right, he couldn't help puffing out his chest, proudly like a rooster.

He was about to take a step forward.

"No, it's not you, it's the young man behind you."

Tashi's expression froze suddenly, and his whole body became a little dull.

The person in white behind him seemed to be the only one.

He turned his head mechanically, in the miscellaneous gray and brown, Chen Xuan's white fur was particularly conspicuous.

"how come……"

He murmured.

As everyone knows, Chen Xuan also wants to say this sentence.

Fuck, I just came to see the excitement.

How did things get like this?
