Chapter 286 Just a guess (23)
"I won't go into further detail. We'll all be together from now on, but from what I've seen, there must be someone reborn or a time traveler in this world who knows what's about to happen and has informed those above them. That's how everything else is arranged according to the order of the natural disasters to come."
Lan Jin's analysis does make sense, but what does it have to do with mutant creatures?
Lan Jin explained, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, so I can't guarantee that my thoughts are correct, but I think there's definitely something wrong with the lush forest we visited before. Even if it was a natural disaster, such a lush forest couldn't have appeared suddenly. Not only were the plants there too strange, but the animals were also magnified many times, as if they had been blown up.
So the separately enclosed lush forest makes me feel like it is an experimental base. Whether it is plants, animals or even humans, they are all experimental subjects. Otherwise, why would the lush forest grow in such an uninhabited place? If we hadn't come to the H City base, we might not even know of its existence.
So I think that appearing there is not their own choice, but a place arranged by humans.
As for why, it's very simple. Who knows what changes will happen to the things here? They can solve it privately in places with few people, but what if there are too many people and it causes panic? Besides, experiments are done in uninhabited places, right?
Also, when we first went to Maolin, Brother Zhang said that the things there could not get out of the circle at all. But in the end, those things not only could get out, but they could also run out on their own. So why was Brother Zhang so sure at the beginning?
There is only one answer: Maolin is no longer under human control. It has mutated, and the only way to stop it is to destroy it."
As for insect powder, Lan Jin said, "Insect powder is even simpler. My dog won't eat it. We naturally shouldn't touch it. After all, animals are the most alert. But this is us. We have supplies, but the people outside have no source of food. Apart from sweeping the building, when they see the 'life' in front of them, can they choose not to?
Having said that, I think that from the very beginning, the recycling of materials had probably taken the follow-up into account. How could people eat that stinky powder unless they were out of ammunition and food?
But no matter what, I am certain that someone must have deliberately arranged these insect powders and then sold them to those of us living outside the base.
You have to know that these plants grow in dense forests. Ordinary people have no idea of the existence of dense forests. And you can imagine how dangerous it is. Can ordinary people enter? Even if they enter, they still have to take the trouble to dry it, grind it into powder, add it to insect powder, and finally sell it all over the country.
I'd like to ask, can ordinary people do this? You know, most people don't have transportation. How can they travel all over the country to sell insect powder? Even if they did go..."
As for whether plants can give people superpowers, it is actually not difficult to guess. All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive. If a poisonous snake can find an antidote within three steps, plants must be able to restrain it.
Lan Jin said he was tired and didn't want to talk anymore, but having said that, if he still didn't understand the problem, he would be really stupid.
But Ling Jiang still didn't understand one thing. "Why are the people above doing this? Is it just to kill those of us who live outside?"
"No." Lan Jin said: "I'm just guessing. In the past life, there must have been people who gained superpowers and brought them into the base. However, they should have come into direct contact with the plants, so their reactions were stronger than ours. On the contrary, it was like Brother Zhang and the others,
The consequences of possessing superpowers were too severe, causing the order of the base to collapse. When those roaring people stopped, some of them had superpowers, some remained ordinary, and the rest died on the spot.
Another thing is that not everyone's superpowers are strong enough to face powerful enemies. Compared with the need to prolong human life, it seems a bit worthless.
So in this life, someone proposed a new plan. They took out some plants and some insects, dried them during the insect plague, and waited until the extreme cold came and everyone's food supply was really exhausted before taking out this "life-saving" food.
There is no need to think too much about it. Those of us outside are sure to eat it. Think carefully about the market back then. Insect powder was sold as long as the market was open. There were soldiers guarding the market. Is there really no problem with such a strong-smelling food?
Then everyone ate and came back. It didn't matter how everyone reacted, as it happened outside anyway. Besides, everyone wasn't from the base, so even if the base knew about it, they wouldn't do anything. They'd just let everyone fend for themselves. Finally, after the results came out, they'd go down the mountain and recruit talent, bringing all the psychics into the base to work for it."
Although these are Lan Jin's guesses, they are just guesses.
Lan Jin said: "I have no evidence, these are just my guesses, but judging from Brother Zhang's reaction just now, I think my guess is correct."
Think about it this way——
You can't even think about it. It's terrifying when you think about it carefully.
Ling Jiang said in panic, "No, if you say that, you've already suspected everything is wrong. Then why did you move into the base? Isn't the base more dangerous?"
"First, we have no evidence to prove that these things were all done by the military base, but the military is definitely aware of them. Secondly, ordinary people have no access to this kind of thing. Finally, where would we live if not at the base? So my advice is, don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. If you can know less, try not to pry."
Huang Jinghe was silent for a moment before saying, "Then my parents should know about this. They initially told me to stock up on food and stick to what's at home. But when I contacted them later and learned I had superpowers, they were very surprised. They even asked, 'Isn't there enough food at home?' I didn't think much of it, but now it all makes sense. So, Sister Lan's analysis is probably correct."
"So, if we want to live a peaceful life, we shouldn't ask anything. We're afraid that if we know too much, we won't be able to leave in the future." Lan Jin said to the three people in front of him very seriously.
But the three people in front of him all sighed, and Lao Gao even said, "My life is so hard. Living is so hard. Why are there so many things going on? It's just the end of the world, but there is such a big conspiracy."
"The above speculations are pure nonsense. Just listen to them and then go away." Lan Jin said solemnly again.
That being said, can this kind of thing be resolved?
During the silence, Ling Jiang asked, "Should we still participate in the special training? We are definitely stronger than the others. What if we stand out? But if we don't stand out, no one will believe us."
