So how did he die? Xu Xin didn't ask this question.
"How do you want to cooperate?"
Since we are looking for a survivor to cooperate with, he must be able to do things that these stone statues cannot do.
"Let's sit down and talk about cooperation. You can come to our room." said the female stone statue.
Xu Xin wouldn't be so foolish as to follow them. He raised the spear in his hand, pointed it at the two stone statues, and said coldly, "We can just talk about it here."
"You don't have a choice."
The male stone statue suddenly stomped his foot, and the ground began to shake instantly.
Then, accompanied by a loud "boom", two stone walls at least ten centimeters thick emerged from the ground in front of and behind Xu Xin, and hit the stone ceiling of the corridor with a "clang", trapping him directly in this small space.
Even the spear in his hand was stuck diagonally between the two walls.
This stone statue actually has such ability!
Xu Xin immediately drew his iron sword and chopped at the stone wall, leaving behind several deep cuts. However, the stone wall was very thick, and these few centimeters of cuts were of no use. Instead, the two walls were getting closer and closer, as if they were trying to squeeze him to death.
"I advise you not to speak to her like that, otherwise even if you have to wait another twelve years, I will kill you directly." Chang Yin's voice became cold and came from the other side of the wall.
Damn, he’s a wife-protecting maniac.
But, what does twelve years mean? He seemed to mean that if he killed himself, he would have to wait another twelve years?
Xu Xin felt relieved. It seemed that these two gargoyles would not attack him for the time being.
Xu Xin heard the dissuading voice of the female stone statue outside the stone wall.
The two walls slowly lowered and sank into the ground again, and the ground returned to being flat. There was no sign that there had ever been two stone walls at these two locations.
Chang Yin regained his lazy smile. "Well, I'm very strong, right? So there's no need for me to lie to you. If I really wanted to kill you, I would have done it a long time ago."
Xu Xin took a deep breath, smiled, and extended his hand, saying, "Don't you want to discuss cooperation with me? Lead the way."
Let's do what they want first. He doesn't have the ability to turn against the two stone statues in front of him now.
The two stone statues asked Xu Xin for the windmill and handed it to the little boy, asking him to go back to his room and play by himself. They then took Xu Xin to the first room, which was the room where Chang Yin wrote.
The wooden chairs and wooden table were almost rotten, so Chang Yin swept them aside and stomped his foot. A square stone table and three stone pillars rose in the room.
"Just sit like this for now. It's been twelve years, and this place is almost rotten." Changyin was the first to sit down on the stone pier. The stone butt and the stone pier made a "click" sound. The female stone statue was softer and sat down gently next to Changyin.
Xu Xin's stone pillar was opposite the two of them. He glanced at the stone pillar and finally sat down.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Changyin and this is my wife, Xuelan." Changyin said.
They both look like oriental people, but I didn’t expect that even their names are Chinese in style.
"...My name is Xu Xin. How do you want to cooperate with me?" Their strength was so strong that Xu Xin couldn't think of how he could help them.
"First of all, we want you to take us out of this dungeon. We have stayed here long enough and want to see the sunlight." The male stone statue looked up and said with some melancholy.
"Take you out of here? You want to go to the surface?" Xu Xin was a little confused. Didn't they live in this underground city? Weren't they conducting experiments here?
"That's right. This year marks the forty-ninth year that we've been trapped underground."
Trapped...underground?
Then, the stone statue named Changyin told him a story.
Forty-nine years ago, there was a prosperous world. According to Chang Yin's description, the technological level of this world was almost the same as that of Earth.
But a catastrophe changed everything.
The unknown red light illuminated half of the planet like sunlight. Although it only lasted for five minutes, it caused great changes to half of the creatures in the world.
Whether it was land animals or plants, or creatures in the ocean, they all became extremely large and deformed, lost their will, and began to fight each other based on their aggressive instincts.
The other half of humanity that was not exposed to the red light still survived, and began to resist tenaciously with their own technology.
It started with an attack by mutant marine creatures.
Marine life is highly mobile. Before humans could react, countless mutated marine life landed on the coast and began to slaughter all living things wantonly.
There were sea turtles as big as houses, giant octopuses that only appeared in movies, giant shells that could bite a human in two, and giant killer whales that roamed the ocean. Human warships were vulnerable to the mutated killer whales and the various behemoths of the ocean. Even the most powerful weapons were ineffective. The sea was simply too teeming with mutant creatures.
Humanity has lost all control of the sea.
After paying a heavy price, humans finally drove most of the landed marine mutant creatures back into the sea and guarded their land territories.
But then, as if receiving an order, the mutated birds and mosquitoes flew across the entire hemisphere and attacked human cities.
The individual combat power of mutated birds and mosquitoes is actually not strong. Compared with marine mutated creatures, they are much smaller in size. After all, those that are too big cannot fly.
