You can evolve by surviving in the Ark

For Green, it was difficult for him to find suitable words to describe his experiences during this period.

Hell is only the closest.

Norman stayed behind that day and fled with Nasha and the tribe. Looking back from a distance, he saw the entire Green Shade Tribe being devoured by the Carcharodontosaurus.

Later, they were chased and intercepted by the Black Rock Tribe, and they could only keep hiding in Tibet. During this period, there were fewer and fewer people around, some died, some betrayed, the behavior of the latter led to the former, the fate of the former gave birth to the latter, and the entire fleeing team fell into an endless vicious circle.

The roads to the west and south had been blocked by the Black Rock Tribe in advance. In the end, they had no choice but to sail out to sea, arrived at the Island of Death, hid in the cave, and used all the metal materials to seal the cave entrance tightly. , leaving only a small window for ventilation at the top.

At this time, there were only 14 survivors left.

Carcharodontosaurus couldn't swim, and Deming no longer cared about the Green Shade Tribe, which existed in name only. During this period of time, the 14 people who had experienced the warmth and coldness of human kindness thought that the matter had finally come to an end.

Unexpectedly, this is where the nightmare begins.

Deming didn't take them to heart, and the Black Rock Tribe no longer paid attention to them, but those who betrayed the Green Shade Tribe had no intention of letting them go.

Everyone has a ruler called morality in their heart, and the level of this ruler will vary depending on the education they receive. But no matter how different it is, betraying a companion who shares life and death cannot be a virtue. They felt that they were in a desperate situation and made a last resort choice in order to survive. As a result, the people they betrayed were still alive. This was something these traitors could not accept no matter what.

The traitor group headed by Su Ke was initially worried about their escape and launched a forceful attack on the cave. As a result, two people from the other side died, and Su Ke himself almost died.

After realizing that they had no way to escape, they no longer chose to attack by force. Instead, they conducted 24-hour surveillance and took turns harassing and insulting the people in the cave from morning to night.

It even included cutting up Norman's body and throwing it in piece by piece.

Such behavior caused the Green Shadow people who were disturbed by the noise to lose their minds. They rushed out, killing three people, and were forced to retreat.

At the same time, everyone in the cave did not give up exploring the way out. They dived into the pool at the end of the cave and reached the vast inner space of the earth.

Green glanced into the abyss, which was a hundred meters long, and saw countless crypt creatures inhabiting the spiral stone path, and also saw the devouring artifact shining with purple light in the ground.

"It must be powerful."

Green encouraged everyone in this way. The artifact did not look like a mortal object. It must contain power, perhaps the power to kill the Carcharodontosaurus.

He was not sure when he said this, but it was the only thing that everyone in despair could believe. People in desperate situations can only live by faith. They must find something to believe in.

All their dragons were dead, only their guns and swords and spears. It was cold in the inner space of the earth, and they couldn't stay too long without bringing in fur armor, so they could only clean up the creatures in the cave bit by bit. When the cold became too much to bear, they would swim out of the pool to recover their body temperature. Back and forth again and again.

After a long time, the materials for lighting the bonfire were exhausted, and the food and drinking water were also exhausted. They dragged the corpses of the cave creatures back and lived a life of eating hair and drinking blood in the darkness.

"It must be powerful."

If you say this often, it becomes true. Everyone believes that the artifact is powerful. As long as they get it, they can get out of trouble and even take revenge.

Green later reflected on this period as a dark time, but at least full of hope—even if it was false.

Both the giant spider scorpion and the clawed bat are larger than humans, and it is not easy to defeat them purely by relying on human strength. The firearms and bullets are exhausted, the arrows are also exhausted, and the armor is damaged...

Finally one day, someone who was bitten by the clawed bat began to cough, and the cough spread.

The cross-infected acute rabies caused everyone to completely collapse. Those who desperately wanted to open the door and go out were killed first, and then three people committed suicide. The remaining five people fought for the last medicinal wine and fought against countless life-and-death moments. Neither of them gave up on each other's partners.

In the end, only Green and Nasha were left alive.

There was no place to bury these corpses. Even at the last moment, Green could not bear to throw them into the center of the earth to be eaten by cave creatures. He could only put them in the cave to rot slowly.

"Sister Nasha, I have gradually adapted to the cold. I can stay in the center of the earth for longer and longer."

"Sister Nasha, the spear is broken, but I still have a knife and a shield."

"Sister Nasha, I also killed that giant scorpion. Ha, I almost couldn't come back."

"Sister Nasha, there is still the last group of clawed bats left. I will get the artifact soon...it must be powerful."

Green is still persevering in repeating his previous behavior. He must unswervingly believe that this is the only thing that can support him to continue to live.

He talks to Nasha every day, but unlike him, Nasha has collapsed. At first she would respond, either fiercely or calmly, but then her eyes lost light, she stopped talking, she stopped moving, and she stopped eating.

Although still alive, she seemed dead.

That artifact must be powerful.

Green believed this until... right now.

The blood-stained devouring artifact lay in his arms.

And he didn't get any power.

……

Liu Ke, who was waving his human-headed staff and spouting obscene words into the cave, suddenly noticed something huge flying over his head.

He turned around, and the armed Fengshen Pterosaur was hanging above his head. Through the transparent cockpit, he could see the frosty-faced rider above him.

"What are you doing?"

Looking at the human head impaled on a wooden stick, Qiao Liang felt that his outlook on life had been impacted again.

"You... who are you!"

Luk looked at the giant steel dragon in front of him in fear. His companions behind him, as well as the raptors and saber-toothed tigers he brought with him, could not give him enough sense of security. He could only yell in a stern voice.

"We are His Majesty the Dragon Emperor's people, you..."

He couldn't finish his words and looked at the bloody hole in his chest in disbelief.

Unable to bear it, Tuotuo directly pulled the trigger of the pump-action shotgun. This shotgun, which is made with machine tools, has a full ammunition capacity of six rounds compared to the original shotgun which only had two rounds.

"you……"

Seeing what Lu Ke wanted to say, Tuo Tuo fired another shot and smashed his head.

"Bold!" "How dare you..." "Do you know..."

Only then did those people react and started shouting. Under their command, the dinosaurs under their command rushed towards the Fengshen Pterosaur, but they themselves were scrambling to escape.

"My fault……"

Qiao Liang's voice caught up and reached their ears, but the cold meaning penetrated into their bones.

"I should have asked you directly for your last words."

……

The roar of explosions and gunshots outside the cave caught Green's attention. He put down the devouring artifact and walked out with the knife in hand.

He walked to the entrance of the cave and saw a little monkey crawling in through the small window at the top and stopping at the iron door.

Green suddenly remembered the illustrated book of the Central Monkey that he had seen. The metal box containing the illustrated book was right next to the Devouring Artifact in the center of the earth.

“…the mesophila is a common pet that is easy to keep. It will eat almost all the fruits that can be harvested on the island. The mesas are mainly used as social companions because they cannot carry enough things. Known as cargo animals, they are too small to be ridden and not very useful in combat. However, they are very effective at throwing large amounts of excrement as a warning to intruders. Nomads will also try to teach them to open door locks while looting. "

Pick the lock, it's picking the lock!

Green roared and rushed forward, but the iron door had been opened, and the little monkey who discovered him screamed and ran away.

Green was about to close the iron door immediately, but his other hand was already holding the edge of the door. Tight veins appeared on Green's forehead, but the iron door was still pulled open bit by bit.

Green met Qiao Liang's eyes.

"Ah!" Green yelled, and he was about to slash at him with his knife.

Seeing Green's actions, Qiao Liang kicked him directly on the wrist, and the knife flew out.

This was the kick that Lu Qian used to disarm him. He had practiced it for a long time.

The knife flew out of his hand. Green gritted his teeth and continued to punch him regardless of the soreness in his wrist. However, Qiao Liang grabbed his wrist directly and pulled him out of the door.

Before Green's center of gravity could be stabilized, his foot was suddenly tripped and he was pinned to the ground. Qiao Liang used his strength to remove Green's shoulders.

Li Hongying's teaching to Qiao Liang was naturally attentive, but compared to ancient martial arts, Cole's modern fighting skills, which focus on hitting human joints, were more rapid and efficient. He combined the suggestions of the two of them, and he had the crude ancient martial art of transporting energy and blood to enhance the burst, coupled with the proficient modern fighting routines, he could be considered to have formed his own combat system.

"Calm down...tell us what happened."

Qiao Liang held Green down. The man was still struggling, but his joints were stuck and his strength was weak. Green was not weak, but he was too weak mentally and physically at the moment.

"You... don't hurt her, come at me! Don't hurt her!" Green shouted in a hoarse voice. He couldn't break free, so he kept hitting the ground with his head. "Don't hurt her..."

"You calm down."

Tuotuo and Li Hongying walked into the cave and came out not long after. Li Hongying supported Nasha, who was walking like a zombie, while Tuotuo held the devouring artifact covered in blood.

Qiao Liang sighed.

He released his grip on Green and slowly stepped back to show that he was not hostile, but secretly, his hand still rested on the bolas at his waist.

"Sister Nasha..." Seeing Nasha come out, Green's mood seemed to have stabilized a little, but when he turned around, he saw something, and the mood that had just stabilized collapsed again in an instant.

He didn't have time to stand up, so he crawled over and picked up the things Suike left behind.

"Brother Norman...it's all my fault! I shouldn't have quarreled with you at that time, I shouldn't have said those words...Brother Norman..."

Ignoring the stench that was emanating from the thing in his hand, he placed it tremblingly in front of his eyes, and big tears fell down as he spoke.

After hearing Norman's name, Nasha's eyes regained a little sparkle.

She broke away from Li Hongying's support, took a step forward and fell to the ground. She didn't try to stand up, so she crawled over on her hands and feet.

"Norman..."

The two held the half-rotted head and cried loudly.
