I don't know how much time has passed.
Sherry gradually regained consciousness and woke up from her coma.
Am I... not dead yet?
The woman groggily opened her eyes and found herself in a dark cave.
A warm campfire was nearby, its orange flames dancing and burning on the firewood. Outside the cave, the night was pitch black, but no stars could be seen.
In fact, the human plane has not seen stars for many years because of the influence of purple fungus. The concentration of purple mist in the air has been rising, and visibility in many places is almost no more than 100 meters.
"You're awake?" Lin Nai, who was sitting next to her, yawned.
Upon hearing the sound, Shirley finally regained full consciousness.
During this period, she traveled around the mainland all by herself.
There were no companions, only enemies.
They are either demons or followers of evil gods.
Therefore, she is now very sensitive to all human voices.
Upon hearing the voice, Shirley reacted instinctively, rolling backward and then rising to her feet. Like a nimble female leopard, she crouched on the ground, warily eyeing the strange man before her: "Who are you?"
Lin Nai, holding a long skewer of meat, sat in front of the fire grilling it and said leisurely, "If I hadn't appeared, you would have been eaten by those spider demons by now. Guess who I am?"
Shirley paused for a moment, vaguely remembering something.
Did you save me?
Shirley looked at him and asked tentatively, "You're not a follower of an evil god?"
"Click"
Lin Nai took a bite of the crunchy meat skewer in her hand: "What do you think?"
"..." Sherry finally relaxed and bowed slightly to Linnai: "I'm sorry for the offense."
"It's nothing." Lin Nai handed her a skewer of grilled meat: "Here, want some?"
"Hmm..." Shirley took the skewer of meat, looked at the dark, gooey stuff, and found it a bit strange. She asked in confusion, "What is this?"
Linna: "Oh, I mean those spider demons' long legs."
Sherry: "......"
"Don't worry, I've already cleared away the demonic energy. The rest is just like regular protein." Lin Nai took another bite: "It's delicious."
Sherry: "......"
"...I think I'll pass. After all, superhumans can maintain their energy with soul power."
Sherry put down the meat skewers, her beautiful blue eyes carefully examining Lin Nai, and said, "This is the first time I've seen a normal human being on this continent who hasn't been controlled by an evil god."
“This continent?” Linnaeus said, “So you’re probably not from this continent.”
“Yes, I am from Jian Kingdom.” Shirley’s expression turned somber and disappointed. “But Jian Kingdom no longer exists.”
Lin Nai asked curiously, "When you say 'it doesn't exist,' do you mean the Kingdom of Jian has been controlled by the evil god, or...?"
Shirley: "No, it doesn't exist in a physical sense."
Linnaeus: "?"
"Don't you know?" Shirley looked into his eyes and said seriously, "The continent of Jian Kingdom has disappeared."
"Disappeared??" Lin Nai frowned. "What do you mean?"
Sherry said in a deep voice, "More than a year ago, a super earthquake struck the country, shattering the entire continent into pieces."
"At first it split into two, then into four, until it completely split into countless small islands floating in the sea, and many of them sank directly into the seabed. Some of the land even seemed to evaporate and disappeared overnight."
Lin Nai's pupils contracted: "There's actually such a thing?"
“It’s not just the Jian Kingdom.” Shirley said with a serious expression, “Currently, apart from the Yan Kingdom, the other continents have basically disappeared completely. Even if there are any remaining ones, they are just some small islands floating in the sea. And these small islands all seem to be drifting towards the Yan Kingdom. Some people speculate that soon these fragmented islands will all merge with the Yan Kingdom and form a new supercontinent.”
Linna fell silent, thinking that such a strong earthquake was extremely rare and did not seem to occur under normal circumstances. Could it also be related to the evil god and the purple fungus?
Sherry sighed: "Actually, I just followed the floating island all the way to Yan Kingdom."
Linnaeus: "Why did such a strong earthquake occur? Do you know the reason?"
“I don’t know.” Shirley shook her head. “Now, the entire human plane is just this one continent left. I originally came here with a last glimmer of hope to seek help from the Yan Kingdom’s government, but I soon discovered that the Yan Kingdom’s government was no longer the same government it used to be, and the people living here had become strange. Later, I found out that they had all been brainwashed by something called an evil god.”
Shirley sighed deeply as she spoke, "I thought I was the only normal human left in this apocalypse..."
Linnaeus shrugged.
When he first returned to the human realm, wasn't that what he was thinking too?
However, it seems that Shirley doesn't know much about the intelligence on the Yan Kingdom continent.
She might not even be as good as him.
"Actually, there are still some people who have not been corrupted by the purple mist and have not been controlled by the evil god."
Linnaeus said, "However, these people are generally referred to as rebels by the authorities on this continent."
Shirley asked curiously, "So you're a member of the rebels?"
Linna: "Me? I guess so."
Sherry: "Oh, right... thank you for earlier."
Linnaeus: "It's nothing."
......
Just then, Ye Wan'er returned from outside.
As soon as I entered, I heard the sounds of men and women talking and laughing.
Night: "?"
I didn't quite catch what they were saying, but it seemed like they were having a good time...
Upon seeing Ye'er enter from outside the cave, Shirley immediately shut her mouth, her eyes instinctively becoming wary as she grabbed the black scythe stuck to the side. It seemed that her time wandering alone in the wilderness had indeed made her somewhat sensitive.
"Don't be nervous, we're all on the same side," Lin Nai said leisurely, pointing to Wan Ye'er: "Let me introduce you, this is my..."
"Y-you...hello." Before Lin Nai could finish speaking, the girl introduced herself, came to Lin Nai's side and took his arm: "I...I'm his girlfriend...no, I'm his...wife."
Linnaeus: "?"
