Before Chu Zhou and others saw the ancient human ruins, they had imagined what these ruins looked like.
The word "ancient" usually makes people think of something relatively ancient and primitive.
In their imagination, this ruins may be related to tribes, hunting, totems and other elements.
But it is absolutely unimaginable that this is actually a huge steel city.
People are always accustomed to associate 'steel' with modern society with advanced technology.
It is hard to imagine that such a steel city existed hundreds of millions of years ago.
In the steel city in front of you, there are countless huge buildings made of steel structures.
Even the ground is covered with huge rails.
However, after an extremely long period of erosion.
This huge steel city is already covered in rust.
Many rusted steel buildings could no longer support their structures and collapsed.
Rusty steel components can be seen all over the field of vision of Chu Zhou and others.
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I probably wouldn't have imagined that this is a relic left by ancient humans."
Oriental Pearl sighed, squatted down, picked up a rusty, palm-length iron nail from the ground, and looked at it carefully.
"Yes. If it were not confirmed that these are relics of ancient humans... that they are relics of humans from the era before the cataclysm, I feel it would be easier to accept it."
Yang Zhenzhen also picked up a rusty iron block the size of a face plate from the ground. After studying it for a while, he found that it was once a gear.
Xie Longyuan, Bai Changming, Ye Yun, Luo Yue, Pang He, Zhu Yushi, Gu Xi and others also began to explore nearby.
"Teacher, let's go in and have a look too!"
"good!"
Chu Zhou and Sister Dao also stepped into the steel city.
Click, click, click!
This steel city is really corroded by rust.
Chu Zhou and Sister Dao stepped on some mechanical components and rails, turning them into slag.
“There’s a mural here!”
Not long after, Luo Yue suddenly shouted.
When Chu Zhou and others heard the sound, they all immediately flew over.
When Chu Zhou arrived, Bai Changming, Ye Yun, and Luo Yue were standing in front of a huge mural, watching carefully.
This mural was carved on a huge stone, but it didn't quite match the style of the steel city.
Moreover, the carving technique of the mural is very crude and the lines are extremely simple, like the graffiti of a child.
There are only four murals.
The first picture shows many people standing together holding hammers, saws, knives, shovels and other tools.
In the second picture, a steel city appeared, and many people cheered in the city.
In the third picture, in the steel city, some people's limbs suddenly turned into mechanical components.
In the fourth picture, in the steel city, all normal humans have disappeared, and there are only robots of different sizes in the city.
"Do these four paintings reveal the development process of ancient human civilization that built this city of steel?"
Chu Zhou muttered to himself. Seeing the changing process of human beings in the murals, he basically understood the meaning of these four murals.
"They seemed to be trying to take the mechanized evolutionary route... I don't know, where exactly did they go? It's just that they should have failed in the end, otherwise, they wouldn't have disappeared from history."
"The evolutionary path we humans are currently taking has reached a limit... I don't know whether it will succeed in the end."
Sister Dao said with a somewhat heavy tone.
When Bai Changming, Ye Yun, and Luo Yue heard this, their expressions darkened slightly.
Judging from the information revealed by the large-scale steel city in front of us and the four murals, ancient humans were not necessarily worse than today's humans.
But the civilization established by ancient humans seems to have been completely destroyed.
The evolutionary route attempted by ancient humans also failed.
Will the evolutionary path humans are taking now be successful in the future?
If the evolutionary path humans are taking now fails, will today's humans also disappear like ancient humans?
These issues involving the history of human civilization and evolution were so heavy that the atmosphere became depressing.
Chu Zhou smiled: "Why do you care so much! We are still just the controllers, and even the current evolutionary path has not reached the end yet."
"The continuation of human civilization and the development of the evolutionary line are things we should only consider after we reach the end of the evolutionary line."
"It's not certain whether we can become Martial Gods now!"
"Practice hard! Become a Martial God first, then consider other things!"
"Chu Zhou's words are not rough! Yes, we are still far away from becoming the God of War! There are some issues that we should not consider yet." Bai Changming also smiled.
Ye Yun and Luo Yue also laughed dumbly.
yes!
They were only in control, and now they were considering issues that at least a Martial God should consider.
Do you think too highly of yourself?
At this time, Xie Longyuan, Dongfang Mingzhu, Yang Zhenzhen and others also came over. After seeing the four murals, they were also shocked.
"It turns out that the ancient humans who left this ruins followed a mechanized evolutionary path? No wonder they left behind such a huge steel city."
Xie Longyuan and others sighed with emotion.
At this moment, a huge vibration came.
Chu Zhou and others were startled and looked in the direction of the sound. They immediately saw a robot several people tall, rushing toward them from the city like a tide.
On the surface, these robots appear to be very crudely made.
The head is a round iron ball.
The body is like an iron bucket.
There are also two mechanized arms and legs.
In terms of aesthetics, these robots cannot be compared with the complicated and precise structures of the robots in movies and TV shows. They are more like inferior products made up of simple mechanical components.
But Chu Zhou and others felt the slightest crisis from these mechanical armies.
"No, these are not robots...they have mental fluctuations on them!"
Chu Zhou and others' expressions suddenly changed.
As the tidal army of robots approached, they all clearly felt a trace of mental fluctuations emanating from each robot.
Chu Zhou and the others all understood that machines had no mental fluctuations.
Only real creatures can have mental fluctuations.
In other words, instead of saying that what appeared in front of them was a robot... it would be better to say that it was a mechanical creature!
"Could it be said that ancient humans succeeded? All of them were transformed into mechanical creatures?"
Chu Zhou and others looked at each other with a sense of horror in their hearts.
If ancient humans really succeeded, then they would no longer be humans... but a brand new species, mechanical creatures.
"@#¥%...&*!"
A mysterious ancient electronic synthesized sound suddenly sounded in this steel city.
The pairs of electronic eyes of the mechanical creatures that surged towards Chu Zhou and the others flashed red, and then they launched attacks on Chu Zhou and the others.
The next moment, a large number of mechanical creatures launched dark red electric plasma balls one after another.
Densely packed basketball-sized plasma balls enveloped Chu Zhou and the others.
Chu Zhou smashed a plasma ball with a casual punch. A trace of red current spread to his arm, giving him a slight numbness and a pinprick-like feeling.
"It's roughly comparable to the attack strength of the Peak Awakener...it doesn't even threaten us."
"But if you get hit too many times, it's hard to say."
Chu Zhou said calmly, and immediately used the phantom movement technique and rushed towards the army of mechanical creatures.
Every step he took produced lifelike afterimages, perfectly dodging all the flying plasma balls.
Soon, he appeared in front of a mechanical creature.
"boom!"
He punched a mechanical creature hard, directly breaking the mechanical creature into countless parts.
A white crystal the size of a rice grain was scattered in all directions along with countless parts.
Chu Zhou grabbed the white crystal with lightning in his right hand.
From the white crystal, he felt a trace of extremely weak mental fluctuations.
"Is this crystal the spiritual condensation of ancient humans?"
As a spiritual master who has condensed spiritual relics, Chu Zhou thought of a lot when he saw the white crystal.
He wrapped the white crystal with his mental power and immediately confirmed his suspicion.
This white crystal is indeed the condensation of spirit.
But there seems to be no consciousness among them.
There was only an extremely weak single signal.
Chu Zhou didn't know how ancient humans engraved this single signal into the white crystal, but he realized that the white crystal was a good thing.
This white spiritual condensation is very pure, with no other mental distractions except that single signal.
It seems that as long as he eliminates a single signal in it, he can directly absorb the white crystal and increase his mental power.
"This is good stuff!"
Chu Zhou's eyes lit up.
The next moment, he completely let go of his hands and feet, and his whole body turned into afterimages, smashing each mechanical creature into pieces, and then collected all the white crystals.
Xie Longyuan and others had been staring at Chu Zhou since Chu Zhou started taking action.
They watched Chu Zhou's actions in their eyes.
When they saw Chu Zhou smashing mechanical creatures one after another, and then putting away the white crystals one after another, their eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance.
Everyone is not stupid.
He immediately knew that the white crystal must be something precious.
As a spiritual master, Luo Yue immediately guessed what the white crystal was when she saw it.
She directly used a flying knife to shoot a mechanical creature out of the air, and then absorbed a white crystal into her hand.
"This...this is actually a spiritual condensation!"
"Moreover, there is no messy consciousness in it. After sorting out the single signal, you can absorb it and increase your mental power."
Luo Yue said in shock, as if she had discovered a shocking treasure, she couldn't wait to dodge the plasma balls and rush towards the army of mechanical creatures.
It seemed as if he was afraid that Chu Zhou would kill all the mechanical creatures in advance and take away all the white crystals.
"That white crystal can actually increase mental power?"
Sister Dao, Xie Longyuan, Bai Changming and others were shocked and rushed towards the mechanical creatures.
Although they are not spiritual masters...
But it doesn't mean that they have no mental power.
It doesn't mean that increasing their mental power is not good for them.
Therefore, they will never miss this opportunity to quickly increase their mental power.
