Human Shackles

Chapter 54: Elemental coral

Knowledge in this world is very scarce. Luo Kai searched through the library of the sports school. He was looking for knowledge about electricity. Unfortunately, he found nothing. He didn't even see the word "electricity". No, it's new. There is no such word in the text.

   This makes Luo Kai a little strange. Electricity is the key for human civilization to move towards the information age. The technological explosion is also caused by electricity. If there is no electricity, the ladder of civilization progress will be interrupted!

   When returning home at night, Luo Kai lay in bed racking his brains to recall scientific knowledge.

Since the birth of human civilization, the exploration of the outside world has never stopped. After the Second World War, anthropologists summarized the past knowledge and introduced new ones. From this, two new schools were born, one is materialism and the other is Idealism can simply divide these two schools into science and theology.

Needless to say about science, the emphasis is on materialistic dialectics, which means that any matter has its own set of principles, and all that is needed is exploration and discovery, but mind learning is completely different. It emphasizes that everything in the world is centered on human beings. That is to say, human cognition of all things originates from "I", or that the world does not exist, only "I" exists. This "I" is not a narrow sense of self, but a kind of will. Ancient Chinese called it It is the Way of Heaven, and Westerners call it God!

The lack of electricity cannot be explained by science, because the world is a complex electromagnetic network. It can only be guessed that electricity was a manifestation of sexual energy before the catastrophe, just like light, fire, heat, wind and other energies that can be discovered by humans. , But after the cataclysm, this energy suddenly became a kind of hidden energy that humans could not find, and became a kind of dark matter.

  The thought of my brain hurts. It's like thinking about where I came from and where I am going. It is something that can never be understood at the level of human life.

   I don’t know why, but at the end Luo Kai's mind suddenly came to a beautiful woman with long wavy hair. It was obvious that she was a supporter of Xinxue.

   Luo shook his head and began to gradually slow down his heartbeat. Now he wants to find a heartbeat frequency that can soothe his body and mind without immediately falling asleep.

Just when it seemed to be asleep, there was a slight click from the eaves of the roof, and the sound was very soft. If it weren't for Luo Kai, this would have entered an unspeakable state of air and light, which would definitely not be noticed. It was fleeting, and it was someone rushing on it.

   Luo opened his eyes, put on a piece of clothing at random, and gently opened the door of the room. Under the cold moonlight, there was a figure in the distance running swiftly on the eaves, extremely flexible and extremely fast.

   was a little curious in his heart, and climbed to the roof, slightly shrinking his figure to chase the man. Since he realized the tortoise breath, his control over the body has risen to a higher level, and he can even shrink the pores to prevent the breath from leaking.

In the dark, Luo Kai jumped directly on the eaves like an ape. The darkness had no effect on him. His super sense organs constantly fed back his surrounding environment. The civet-like flexible body pinpointed every most suitable foothold. Soon he gradually approached the figure, and what surprised him was that the man's buttocks had a long tail, and he was actually an alien, no wonder he was so sensitive!

   After chasing after him, Luo Kai found that he had reached Nancheng District. There was a Silla Lane specially set up for foreigners in Nancheng District, where a large number of freaks gathered.

   The rate of neonatal deformity has become extremely high since the cataclysm. Some people call it a reversion phenomenon, while others believe that humans are self-regulating and evolving.

The beauty of appearance directly affects the perception of people. Freaks are rejected by normal human society, but they are also a kind of human beings. It is impossible to let them fend for themselves. Every human city has a special residence for strangers. keeping it.

When we arrive at Xinluo Lane, the environment has changed. There are many broken brick houses. The cement pavement is full of potholes because no one has been repairing it for a long time. The fluorescent stone lamps here no longer have the light-emitting function, so that the whole block It was pitch black, and only some candlelights lit by others gave people a little warmth in the dark night.

The figure went deep into the alley, turned left and came to a simple courtyard, knocked gently on the door with a special frequency, the courtyard door opened, and a middle-aged man in his forties opened it. By the door, the two briefly said a few words and walked into the yard.

Luo Kai vaguely felt that the middle-aged man seemed to have seen him somewhere. No, he hadn’t seen his appearance, but his eyes were very familiar. The foreign person's sensitive figure attracted him, but he had no interest in what they were doing.

Just as he was about to leave, another celebrity appeared on the empty street. The man was covered in black robe, he was tall and sturdy, with a strong crossbow on his back, and he walked to the house and knocked. Knocked on the door, and soon the middle-aged greeted him again.

   followed by another person wrapped in black robes, and just for a while, three people in black robes entered the house in succession.

   These mysterious black-robed men aroused Luo Kai's interest. Among the people he came into contact with, only the black-clothed guards from the Jiuyuan Village like to wear black. Could these people be black-clothed guards?

Luo Kai was a little excited. He stretched out his body and jumped from the house, slowly approaching the house, and listened to the wall. There was silence inside, but he didn't even make a sound. Climbing up to the roof, this old-fashioned brick house has a glass skylight on the roof to allow light during the day.

As soon as he was about to look down through the skylight, a sense of danger suddenly rose in my heart, his head shrank back, and a sharp crossbow arrow penetrated the skylight and passed in front of his eyes. Luo was shocked. Backing hurriedly, when he turned around and wanted to run, three men in black robes jumped on the eaves, standing in a triangle position, each holding a crossbow and aiming at him.

"who are you?"

  The power of the crossbow cannot be compared with the bullet. Luo Kai still remained calm and began to increase his heart rate.

   The middle-aged man also walked out of the house at this moment. When he saw Luo Kai, his face became a little weird. He suddenly said: "You don't need to be nervous, this little friend is also the guest I invited, so please come down and talk in detail."

   The three black-robed men looked at each other, put away their crossbows, and jumped down the eaves.

   Luo breathed a sigh of relief, with some doubts in his heart. The middle-aged man felt more familiar when he spoke, but he did not have this person in memory. Did he know who he was?

   hesitated and jumped off the eaves. As the middle-aged walked into the house, Luo Kai became more and more confident with the increase in strength. Even if these people were to be disadvantageous to him, he was not afraid.

   Although the exterior of this small courtyard looks dilapidated, the interior layout is extremely elegant. The floor is covered with thick carpets, the tables, chairs and benches are all carved with antique patterns, and the fluorescent stone lights are soft and bright.

   "Sit down, everyone." The middle-aged man made a please gesture.

   A total of six people sat around the Eight Immortals table in the living room~www.readwn.com~ and did not speak, just quietly tasting tea.

The three men in black robes took off their black robes, revealing their weather-beaten faces. The stranger with a tail is a young man who does not look much like Luo Kai. The sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks look very ugly. He is not like him. Normal people sit like that, but squat on the chair with monkey-like feet, hold the tea cup in both hands, and look around while drinking. Obviously, they are very impatient.

   The middle-aged man stared at Luo Kai for a while, with a smile on his face, and said, "This time we are calling you to have a big deal. Have you heard of elemental coral?"

  Except for Luo Kai, the other four people were shocked. The monkey-like stranger couldn't help but said, "But the foreign body growing in the sea? Didn't it mean that it has been destroyed by the fierce beast in the sea?"

The middle-aged man nodded: "Yes, this elemental coral is a kind of heterogeneous life that grows in the deep sea. It is a kind of creature between life and non-life. To be precise, it is a semi-silicon-based life form. This kind of creature is difficult to destroy, but it was split and dismembered. Although most of them were swallowed by the beasts, there are still some drifting on the sea. I got the news that a small section of elemental coral is currently in Longyang County!"

Luo Kai was also taken aback. It should be known that all the lives currently known belong to carbon-based life, which are organisms based on carbon as an organic matter. Silicon-based life is a concept that only exists in science fiction movies. It is a metal element and belongs to an inorganic substance. Silicon-based life can be called a metal-based life form. Simply put, if a robot has self-intelligence, it is a silicon-based life.

The middle-aged man took a sip of his tea, looked at Luo Kai, and continued: "The research value of elemental coral is far above that of fierce beasts. The specific effect is that life may have a special evolution and master a kind of elemental power! "
