There was a half-open metal gate standing there quietly.

"Let's go look inside the gate."

The girl said so, and there was such a hint of excitement in her voice that she might not have noticed.

Zhongli and Xuexia have nothing to do.

Several people pushed open the rusty and mottled door and entered the building before the rocket.

The first floor of the entrance is a painting engraved on a huge metal wall--that is a huge star map depicting the entire solar system.

Standing in front of this star map, Qianhu and Yuli were as insignificant as dust.

"What is this? Xiaoqian." You Li was so shocked that she even forgot to use the Zhongli robot that was easy to use recently.

Chito has read books about the universe, standing in front of the screen and muttering softly to himself.

"It's a map of the universe."

"Universe?" Julie continued to ask.

"It's the stars and the positions of the stars...maybe" Qianhu answered unclearly.

Yuli obviously didn't understand, so her gaze turned to Zhongli who was silent on the side.

"The so-called universe is a very big concept." Zhong Li also pondered for a while: "Now you just need to know that this huge city under you is a small city on a planet in the universe. .Millions of such cities can be accommodated in a planet, and a universe includes tens of thousands of trillions of planets."

"Tens of billions of planets, millions of cities..." You Li repeated Zhongli's words in shock.

"Of course, that's the case." Yukinoshita Yukino who had almost cultivated to have no sense of existence suddenly said.

She raised her arm wrapped in a thick snow coat, pointing to the huge metal mural and said.

"That's the sun, that's the moon, and that's the planet under our feet. If my guess is correct, the name of this planet should be called Earth."

"The sun is so bright!"

"The moon is so small."

In Yuli's startled commentary voice.

"Huh?" Qianhu turned his head a little strangely: "Earth?"

"Well, I remember that our planet was called Earth in the past. But, Yukinoshita Yukino...um...you should be called Miss. Ms. Yukinoshita Yukino, how do you know about our planet? The planet used to be called Earth? I don't remember saying that."

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned slightly, then pondered for a while.

"Actually, the world I live in, the planet I live in, is also called the Earth."

After saying this, Yuli turned around suddenly: "That's right, Qianhu, haven't I told you? Everyone in the Wanjie chat group, many people are from the earth."

"By the way, you don't seem to have told me that the planet we live on is Earth."

"No, you said, there are many people from the earth in the Wanjie chat group?" Qianhu couldn't maintain his indifferent expression.

"That's right." Yuli still didn't respond.

Qianhu made a trembling voice: "Then, what does the world and planet they live in look like?"

"Let me answer this question." Yukinoshita Yukino's words interjected: "Many people, many cities, although there are wars in other places, but at least my country has not had any wars for decades gone."

"There is no war, and there is no destroyed earth." Qianhu murmured, "It must be a very good place."

Yukinoshita Yukino hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "Although I don't think it's a very beautiful place on weekdays, but now I think it's good to have noisy people."

"Of course, the not-so-good place is still not so good."

"Hmm... how many people?" Qianhu continued to ask.

"Many, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions." Yukinoshita Yukino replied softly.

"It must be good to have more people." Qianhu narrowed her eyes, thought for a while, and felt that the picture in her imagination made her very happy.

"No, it's going to be loud."

Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head: "If there are too many people, it will be so noisy that you can't concentrate at all. So, it's good to be quiet."

"Really." Qianhu turned his gaze back to the metal wall, and then said to Yuli: "Let's go upstairs and have a look."

"Okay." Yuli naturally agreed without hesitation.

Yukinoshita Yukino was a little stunned, but she didn't think too much, and followed them upstairs.

Upstairs are rows of countertops that look like control hubs.

Countless piles of scattered documents are scattered everywhere, and there are various metal remains of different natures scattered throughout it.

"You can see the rocket clearly from here." You Li shouted in surprise.

"Well, this should be the control panel for launching rockets." Qianhu glanced at the electronic symbols and various switches on the countertop: "When was this thing abandoned? When it was clearly in the lower level, we didn't even know that we humans actually to be able to make something like this.”

"They have been in a damaged state for about 1000 years." Zhongli's words suddenly interjected from the side, answering her question.

Zhongli has come to Qianhu and Youli without knowing when.

His eyes were facing the huge cylindrical machine, and his voice was ethereal: "Although I didn't spend my energy on looking at the traces of the history of this world, I have already learned a little bit about the history of your world during my travels with you. A more confident guess, do you... want to hear it?"

"I want to hear it!!!" Yuli raised her hand without hesitation.

"Well... I want to hear it too." Although Qianhu pondered for a second, he also chose to listen.

"Then... how should we talk about it?" Zhong Li thought for a while, his voice seemed to come from a distant place, and it was passed into everyone's ears leisurely.

"The matter may have started 1000 years ago. At that time, the science and technology of this earth civilization had reached a limit."

"Human beings can send their own spaceships to Mars, but they cannot break through the limit of the speed of light. In society, while the gap between rich and poor is widening, class conflicts are gradually increasing."

"Huge [tower]-shaped cities have appeared all over the world, and human civilization has entered the stage of 100% cities."

"And then, somehow, the war started."

"All affluence and civilization are destroyed. While humans are killing each other, this world is also being destroyed."

"The sky, the land, the city, and even the outer space of the universe are all shrouded in war."

"In the end, there is no winner in this war that destroyed everything, only the remnants of human beings lingering in the city."

"The number of these remaining humans is not large, so they can no longer maintain the previous technology, and at most they can only produce some technologies that are much behind."

"It's like the half-track vehicles that Qianhu and Yuli used to ride, as well as propeller planes and basic tanks. These are civilizations that have been destroyed once and then reproduced."

"However, even such a surviving civilization cannot avoid the result of falling into war because of resources."

"The reappearance of the war, the relics of the civilization weapons that were once destroyed, and the power beyond what I can understand, all these things constitute the second civilization destruction war."

"I can't know the process, but you can all see the result."

"That's the world in front of me."

"Everything that shouldn't be destroyed is destroyed, and everything that shouldn't be destroyed is also destroyed."

"Human civilization has completely disappeared, and even robots have gradually fallen into death."

"Except for the biological weapons in the past, there are fewer and fewer intelligent life forms in this world. Until now... Qianhu and Yuli."

When Zhongli said this, his eyes finally returned to Qianhu and Youli from looking into the distance.

"You are already the only surviving human beings with normal mentality among the dozens of [tower-shaped cities] nearby."

"../..." Qianhu remained silent.

"Oh." Yuli was even more indifferent than Qianhu.

She shook her head slightly, and said to Qianhu: "Xiaoqian and I have always been traveling together, and there is no need to know the existence of people in other cities."

"Anyway, other cities must be far away, and it will be difficult to get there."

"..." Qianhu remained silent.

There was a shallow and unclear smile on the corner of Zhongli's mouth.

"Well, that's right. However, if you want to maintain human civilization, I'm afraid you should visit other cities."

"According to my observations, many cities in the world are usually a single technology of certain technologies, and books are also one aspect of it."

"..." Qianhu looked at Zhongli's probing eyes, and said in a calm voice, "Even if we can go to other cities, we can't revive our civilization just by relying on Yuli and me."

"There are too few people, and Yuli and I are both women, so it is impossible to maintain civilization."

When Qianhu said this, his mood didn't seem to change at all.

"Well, I know." Zhong Li nodded slightly: "But, don't you remember?"

"The middle level of this [Tower City], the place you have experienced before."

"What?" Julie asked strangely.

"National Baby Nurturing Center, and, unmanned baby factory." Zhong Li's voice became more and more distant.

"A civilization can be expanded without a man, or even with a single man."

Chapter 13 Bringing the End to Civilization's Salvation

Regarding Zhongli's proposal, Qianhu did not answer his thoughts.

You Li was also ignorant, as if she didn't understand the meaning of Zhongli's words.

And to Zhongli, this was just a reminder on a whim.

It is true that he is the god of contracts, but he will not use temptation and coercion to make others sign contracts.

This is from his own disapproval.

Leaving the rocket's cemetery, several people embarked on an upward journey again.

Sitting on an almost brand-new three-wheeled motorcycle, Qianhu was a little uneasy.

However, after all, she wasn't the one driving today, so there's nothing wrong with it.

Time passed, and about half a day later, the four of them finally left this floor. According to Zhongli's estimation, there were at most two floors left, and they should reach the top floor.

While walking, I don't know if Yuli's brain finally came to his senses, or she was thinking silently from the very beginning.

The thin blond girl finally asked.

"Zhongli."
