The reddish-brown earth is like a steam furnace. Looking around, the dry and hot air seems to have been boiled. Rolling heat waves are rising from the surface. Even the withered yellow needles have become lifeless, which makes people feel despair.
The star that was as dazzling as a kilowatt LED light bulb hanging above people's heads at close range had already reached the middle of the sky. The temperature of the earth continued to rise. Bai Lizhi, who did not dare to easily rely on demon power to maintain the optimal temperature of his body, found a relative star. For larger sparse trees, I plan to wait until the temperature drops a bit before taking action.
Different from the human form, Bai Lizhi in her true form cannot block the light with her eyelids. Facing the bright light that can blind people, she can only curl herself into a ball and hide her head under her body. This blocks the damage to his eyes from strong light.
The weather is already extremely hot, but the color of Baili Gardenia's body is still the most heat-absorbing black. Even if it is in the shade of a tree, it is not much different from being under strong light.
The sultry air is like accidentally covering your head with a quilt in the summer, but you can't kick it away, so you can only continue to endure the scorching heat.
The film that has been covering the eyeballs has become dry and hot due to this bad weather. In the past, when the demonic power was abundant, Bai Lizhi would not have had to suffer like this. He could just use the wind and rain technique.
Unfortunately, the remaining demonic power can be said to be barren to the point of being useless. As long as Bai Lizhi wants to remain rational in the future and not degenerate into a wild beast in the mountains, she cannot use the remaining demonic power indiscriminately.
Bai Lizhi stopped under the tree for two or three hours. When she set off again, facing her own body that could fry beef, Bai Lizhi silently took back the snake letter that was so painful from being burned.
Bai Lizhi's exploration was not without purpose. As she walked farther and farther, the surrounding vegetation began to become denser, and there was more water vapor in the air.
When the sun was about to sink into the horizon, Bai Lizhi, who had been on the road for most of the day, climbed over a mountain covered with sparse trees, and a lake as deep and dazzling as emeralds crashed into her eyes without any warning.
The lake is surrounded by lush vegetation, and the sky and shore scenery are reflected on the lake, forming a rare scene of escape from the world.
The valley was very low, so Bai Li Zhi dragged her hot body for a long distance before swimming to the lake.
On the way over, Bai Lizhi could see the footprints of many animals around her, but unlike the footprints she had seen before, the footprints on the wet soil by the lake were so unfamiliar that she could not imagine which animal could be substituted.
Bai Lizhi stayed in the dark for a while. When she saw a group of horses and deer-like animals less than half a meter tall coming to the lake with their ears raised to drink water, her worries about the lake disappeared.
It's not surprising that Bai Lizhi was so suspicious, because the sights she saw along the way were too strange, which made her easily think of some of the mutant remarks she saw before she went into seclusion.
The impact of human beings on the surrounding environment is still too great. A little carelessness may cause the land to be devastated. Moreover, with the development of science and technology, human beings have more and more control over nature, so much so that the forces inside them can Had to give in.
The mountains collapsed without warning and the current harsh climate was no different from the prehistoric times, making Bai Lizhi unable to help but feel vigilant.
Although she is not a particularly rare breed, she has lived for such a long time, and her entire body can be considered a rare treasure. It would not be surprising if some unscrupulous people covet her flesh and blood.
Thousands of years have been enough for Bai Lizhi to see clearly the dangers of this world.
After the group of unknown animals finished drinking the water and left, and then several waves of completely unfamiliar animals came, and no one saw any trouble after drinking the water, Bai Lizhi slowly descended from the tree.
The huge snake body fell silently from the tree to the ground, and the sound it made when it crushed the dead branches and leaves made the animals that were still drinking water instantly prick up their ears.
They looked along the source of the sound, and they saw that something big was going on!
They had never seen such huge and terrifying animals before. Their legs weakened and they almost fell into the water upside down. After getting up, they turned around and rushed into the forest in a very embarrassed state.
Bai Lizhi, who had become accustomed to this scene, raised her tail and tentatively dipped into the water. Comparing the warm lake water illuminated by the sun with the scalding body of the snake, Bai Lizhi felt extremely cool.
After letting it sit for a while and finding that there was nothing wrong, Bai Li Zhi's whole snake slid into the lake, causing large ripples to appear on the originally calm lake surface.
Because there was no one around who knew her, Bai Li Zhike didn't have to show off her image to have fun, so the lake never calmed down from the moment she stepped down.
The lake looked small in area, but the bottom was not as deep as usual. The farther downstream Baili Zhi went, the lower the temperature of the lake became, and the lower the surrounding visibility.
The temperature of the lake was so comfortable that Bai Lizhi, who had almost been stunned by the heat before, didn't want to leave at all.
She found a sheltered corner, raised her head above the water to ensure that the stupid thing of drowning would not happen to her, and then continued to lie down happily.
U-159 has no satellites, so on a dark night, the stars in the sky are the brightest things that U-159 can see.
But this brightness was so weak compared to the more darkness. With Bai Lizhi's specially enhanced eyesight, he could only vaguely see the outline of the surrounding scenery.
It was also at this time that Bai Lizhi realized that he had most likely changed to a different world.
Although the horoscopes will partially change with the passage of time, it is absolutely impossible that all the horoscopes will change in a short period of time, and even the most familiar moon will disappear without a trace.
Bai Lizhi is the one who knows best how long she can live. She can be sure that before her lifespan is exhausted, the stars above the sky will never become the completely unfamiliar scene they are today.
But if it was a different world, why could she not feel anything at all, and even had to use external objects to be alerted to changes in the outside world?
Bai Lizhi thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out the reason. Afterwards, he couldn't even give up thinking and use magic to explore the cause and effect.
Perhaps because of the light problem, the surroundings were so quiet that even the chirping of insects could not be heard. The only sounds Bai Lizhi could hear were the sound of water from her swimming body and her own slow and long breathing.
I don't know how long it took, but just when Bai Lizhi couldn't help but want to take a nap, and her mind was a little hazy, a genderless voice that sounded like a synthesized voice sounded intermittently in her head.
【drop! Binding to host, completion level 1%...15%...31%...76%...98%, 99%...binding failed! System 19911005 is about to be bound for the second time. 】
[The second binding begins, completion level 1%...9%...29%...45%...81%, 82%...binding failed! System 19911005 is about to be bound for the third time. 】
[The third binding begins, the completion level is 1%...5%...21%...45%, 46%, and the binding fails! System 19911005 applied for additional dialogue with the future host! 】
After muttering to himself in an inorganic synthesized voice, Bai Li Zhi's brain buzzed for a while, and he finally stopped. Before Bai Li Zhi could figure out what was going on, there was an even more irritating sound. It rang.
[Wow - Host, please agree to the application. If you don't agree, I really don't have the energy to search for the next perfect host like you QAQ]
The crying sound like a child couldn't stop in his head, and Bai Lizhi wondered if he would be stunned in the next second.
"Shut up!"
The tail in the water flicked impatiently, and Bai Lizhi scolded in a low voice.
【belch! 】
The frightened system burped instantly, and it did not dare to make a sound. It formed a translucent panel in front of Bai Lizhi, and the enlarged and bold QAQ went straight into Bai Lizhi's eyes.
[sorry! ! ! The future host is too big, I didn’t mean it, it’s just that I’m too scared! ]
"Who are you, and how did you get into my mind?!" The bright red letter continued to collect information in the air, making a creepy "hiss--" sound.
Although Bai Lizhi has indeed lived in modern times for a period of time, because she is also one of the old antiques, her living habits are extremely close to those of retired cadres.
At the end of the day, I would either drink tea or read a book. Occasionally I would turn on the often idle TV and watch. As for the Internet, I also used a small dedicated network inside.
This also caused Bai Lizhi to be in a primitive state when it came to many online contents, not to mention the system flow that had only been flourishing for a few years at that time.
Regarding the emergence of the system, her first thought was what kind of monster it was that could quietly possess her mind and humiliate her so arrogantly.
Although it hasn't been bound yet, you can guess from Bai Lizhi's reaction how dissatisfied the other party is with it. After all, the murderous aura is about to turn into an entity and pierce its screen.
[! ! ! ]
[Future host, please listen to my explanation! I am the Culture Prosperity Game System numbered 19911005. The reason why I have found you as my future host is because you are the only creature I have found in this world that meets the condition of knowing Chinese culture in detail! ]
[In order to find the future host, System 19911005 has consumed 70% of its energy. If the future host rejects me, System 19911005 will be destroyed QAQ]
[Future host Da Da, System 19911005 is very useful. As long as the future host Da Da can complete the task and gain popularity, System 19911005 can provide the future host Da Da with anything it wants! ]
[System 19911005 guarantees that all tasks after the application is approved will be beneficial to future hosts, so future hosts will most likely agree to bind the application QAQ]
The system chattered a lot without stopping in the middle. Bai Lizhi even felt that if the other party had an entity, it would probably be entangled in her body and unable to be torn off.
However, thanks to the system's full desire for survival, Bai Lizhi, who originally couldn't bear the slightest consent, saw what he wanted most at the moment.
"Anything you want?" Bai Lizhi repeated the paragraph after it, and the hesitation revealed instantly made the system's non-existent eyes light up.
[Yes! No matter what it is, as long as it is famous enough, most future hosts can buy it from system 19911005! ]
In order to prove the authenticity of its content, the system made an exception and opened a mall that requires popularity to unlock, and placed a dazzling array of products in front of Bai Lizhi.
Her eyes swept around it, and her eyes were fixed on a certain product casually.
Although the price of each product is high, compared with peripheral products, the spiritual power column is particularly expensive. A low-level spiritual stone requires 100,000 popularity. If you convert the serial number 1 to the 1:1000 general currency, it is simply Don’t be too pricey.
"They are all the items in the front row. Why are spirit stones so expensive? Are you trying to deceive me?" Since the other party wanted something from her and made his own weaknesses obvious, Bai Lizhi did not take those detours. Go round and round and point out exactly what she needs.
[Absolutely not! The reason why spiritual stones are so expensive is mainly because the current world is a technological world, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has long been exhausted. If you want to exchange for the remaining spiritual power, you can only pay a higher price. ]
After finally catching the hope that Bai Lizhi would agree to the binding application, how could the system deliberately trap him? Now it is eager to dump everything, just asking Bai Lizhi to agree quickly.
Bai Lizhi, who really didn't feel any spiritual power from the air, believed 80% of the system's words. She thought about the pros and cons and her future under different choices.
In the long river of time, who wouldn't want to see more scenery in this world as long as they are not despairing? It is true that Bai Lizhi has lived for thousands of years, but this does not mean that she is unwilling to live longer.
However, everything she knows now is just the other party's words. Everything she heard and seen was presented by the other party. Whether it is true or false has not been confirmed. If the other party deliberately concealed it, wouldn't she have fallen into a trap?
Bai Lizhi's silence made the system dare not speak. It composed a dynamic pattern of silent crying on the panel, hoping to win some sympathy from Bai Lizhi.
Sent to this world by the main system, the high-spirited system took a fancy to its favorite candidate several times in succession. In the end, it was discovered that the other party did not meet the last and most important condition. This made all the time spent searching for the target. Most of the energy systems are so desperate that they are in chaos.
What it said to Bai Lizhi before was true, and there was no deception at all. If Bai Lizhi also rejected it, then it could really only be written off because it failed the mission.
The meaning of its creation has not yet been completed, so how could it be given up so easily.
No matter what, it has to pester Bai Lizhi to sign a contract!
The system that made up its mind clenched its non-existent teeth and took another big step back.
[Future host, if you agree, the system 19911005 can advance the items you need for you, but after the advance, you need to pay the required visibility within the specified time, otherwise the price of all goods will be doubled. ]
