Chapter 169 Earth's Changes



Since Xiao Hong is still asking him for help, it means that perhaps the most dangerous situation has not yet been reached.

Perhaps it's just a matter of encirclement and standoff.

After all, the ocean is their home turf.

The nearest coastline is hundreds of kilometers away from Jinghai City. At this distance, Xiao Hong would probably have to go to great lengths to contact Su Xixi.

If the situation were dangerous, it certainly wouldn't take such a risk.

Little Red, that sly one, is no less intelligent than any human being.

"Okay. You stay home and wait for me to come back."

It might take a while because I need to verify a few more things.

Xu Xing said solemnly to Su Xixi.

Even if it's a round trip, and the distance is several hundred kilometers, it's just a longer journey for Xu Xing. As long as he starts the engine, he's confident that he can reach the designated location before dark.

The main reason is that they don't know the situation with Xiaohong. The information she sends is too superficial; they can only determine a general location.

Perhaps, after Xu Xing arrived, he would find the enemy too strong and simply make a hasty retreat.

"If you encounter any danger, you must, must not be reckless. It's best to come back immediately. Little Red caused this trouble herself, so it's no pity if it dies."

When it gets back, I'm going to punish it severely!

Su Xixi knew she couldn't stop it, so she could only offer some advice. She also blamed herself for being too lenient with Xiao Hong in the past.

Ever since that great battle, Su Xixi has always liked to go to Xiao Hong for "pearls," whether she has something to do or not. No one knows where Xiao Hong finds them, and she also rewards Xiao Hong with some crystal cores.

This emboldened Xiao Hong, who believed she was under Xu Xing's protection, but she never expected to run into such a tough opponent this time.

Next, Xu Xing gave some brief instructions.

After he left, Su Xixi took full charge of all affairs, and then naturally Ye Kai took over.

Xu Xing activated his mental power to gradually lift his body into the air to reduce friction. He then used a little trick.

He borrowed the energy-based ability from one of his subordinates, which allows him to convert the energy within his body into tangible kinetic energy for use.

Specifically, this manifests as the state of the wake during rocket launch.

This further increased Xu Xing's speed, allowing him to unleash high-density fluid flames from his palms, propelling his body forward at high speed, much like Iron Man in the movies.

This was the first time Xu Xing had left his province since the anomaly occurred, and the first time he had flown to such a high altitude to see the land.

The Earth today is completely different from what it used to be.

If there were still satellites operating in the sky, they might have been able to capture this extremely exaggerated scene.

Once upon a time, the Earth's oceans were sky blue, and most of the other landmasses were light green or yellow.

But now, as far as the eye can see, everything is lush and green, with towering trees reaching tens of meters in height everywhere, and some mutated varieties even reaching hundreds of meters in height.

Their arrival directly altered the local climate, much like the former rainforest.

The oxygen content in the air increased significantly, and the same was true for the mysterious active factors, which in turn nourished the various mutated beasts around them, making them even stronger.

Cities appear at intervals on the land, like tiny traces in this emerald green ocean.

Looking down, Xu Xing saw that some areas were being overrun by zombies, while others were leading large armies to conquer the zombies.

The only constant is the abundance of vegetation, which continues to reproduce and compete.

In a daze, Xu Xing suddenly had a sense of ancient times. Perhaps the Earth was like this when dinosaurs lived.

Only such a high density of green nutrients can sustain so many organisms.

In just a few months, the whole world seems to have been completely renovated; it's simply unbelievable.

Humanity, once a dominant force, can only struggle to survive in this environment.

As Xu Xing observed the situation, his state of mind seemed to have changed somewhat. Faced with this overwhelming trend, he found it difficult to imagine whether his own forces could withstand the pressure in the future.

Even if in the future, when human geniuses emerge in great numbers, can this trend really be reversed?

With this thought in mind, Xu Xing stopped thinking about it. For now, it was enough to just try to live. As long as he was strong enough, he could crush all uncertainties.

Xu Xing flew at high speed, occasionally taking out a paper map to compare with the surroundings.

Fortunately, currently, only various plants are growing wildly on the surface; their specific appearances have not changed much.

It's still the same mountain, and the rivers have only been widened a bit, making it easy to distinguish.

As long as you follow the Yangtze River system downstream, there won't be much change.

Xiao Hong did not directly invade the Yangtze River system at the beginning, mainly because she was afraid that if she failed, she would have nowhere to escape.

Moreover, although the Yangtze River is not as vast as the ocean, it is still home to countless creatures, and in peacetime it has even supported hundreds of millions of people.

It wouldn't be surprising if some kind of monster were to emerge from inside.

Xiao Hong, who just advanced to level six, might not even be good enough...

Back then, Xu Xing was somewhat surprised when Xiao Hong was promoted to level six.

Unexpectedly, during the questioning of Susie, it was learned that it had discovered some koi of the same origin in another large lake.

After being eaten directly, its body underwent a mutation, becoming increasingly slender, and surprisingly, it even showed a slight tendency to transform into a dragon.

It's somewhat similar to the legend of the carp leaping over the dragon gate that Xu Xing heard back then.

It was for this reason that Xiao Hong dared to be so bold as to want to venture into the sea.

During a brief moment of reflection as I walked along, I vaguely saw that the estuary of the Yangtze River basin was surrounded by numerous well-developed waterways, all of which led to the sea, forming a complete cycle.

"We've arrived so quickly?" Xu Xing muttered to himself.

Unexpectedly, his speed was even faster than anticipated, perhaps because Xu Xing was traveling in the air and did not need to avoid obstacles.

After all, the shortest distance between two points is the distance between them.

The situation here is quite different from what I imagined.

Due to the massive growth of plants, transpiration increased, the Earth's water cycle accelerated, and rivers on land also grew larger.

There are quite a few wonders at this estuary.

Various ferocious fish, each the size of a person, kept leaping out of the water.

On both sides of the strait, there are several kinds of amphibians that even Xu Xing couldn't name, and without exception, they are all very large.

Xu Xing stood on high ground, looking down, trying to find the surrounding area where Xiao Hong might be.

After all, Little Red is no weakling either. With its intelligence, it must have brought a lot of shrimp soldiers and crab generals with it. If a real battle were to break out...

The scale might not be smaller than a human siege, and could even be larger.

After all, aquatic life is much richer than that on land, and the corresponding resources are also much more abundant.
