Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded

Chapter 86: The Curse of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area Hunt's End


"To you, the one who comes after

A thousand or ten thousand years later

New humans or a new civilization on Earth

We were once the masters here, the first survivors of the Wasteland to leave the refuge, documenting our experiences here as a warning to you who come after

The Wandering Earth project went wrong, it was supposed to dock in the orbit of Proxima Centauri, but now it is surrounded by three stars, the high-temperature environment on the surface has eliminated more than 90% of the species, and the original ecological restoration plan has ended in failure

With Liu and Yang, I led the remaining survivors in the refuge to begin surviving on the barren surface

Initially, there were heavy casualties until we discovered the Mutated Zebra and found the migration points circling the globe by following them, where each stop could replenish water in time

Old Yang recorded the coordinates on the map for future supply along the way"

That's the end of the first section, as it's right next to the words Lao Mountain, it's very easy to find.

Lin Feng looked around and quickly found another inscription:

"We spent a full six years returning to the original point

The three suns evaporated 99% of the ice globally, making it difficult to find water sources on the surface. Fortunately, the bay's geological structure could gather airborne moisture and connect with the groundwater in the riverbed

Those who initially chose to stay in the refuge all died after entering the Scorching Sun exposure area, without any exception

Their bodies were reduced to a sheet of charcoal, burned to ashes, but there was no trace of burning inside the refuge

Old Liu believes this is a kind of unknown spontaneous combustion

The reason is certainly related to the exposure of Scorching Sun, and we also established it as a restricted area

Any refuge that had been opened, as long as it underwent exposure in the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, could not escape the curse of spontaneous combustion

We recruited many survivors along the way, establishing a temporary camp in the Bay Rift Valley, as everyone who trekked tens of thousands of kilometers needed rest, and many pregnant women in the group were about to give birth

These were the first new lives of humanity in the new world

Old Liu told me that the direct point of the three suns is always on the southern equator, and its speed of movement does not change. The farther north one goes, near the Arctic Circle, the shorter the daily distance, and it's not as hot

I said, fewer distances mean fewer resources

Going south near the equator, the temperature is too high, currently the team is located north of the Tropic of Cancer, which is just right, and when our strength increases in the future, we will explore the equator and the north pole, looking for the Planet Engine built there

Surely something went wrong there, causing Earth to stop between the three stars

Old Liu nodded, saying he once wanted to write a science fiction novel about the Three-Body Star System, never expecting that one day he would experience it firsthand

I said perhaps only after dehydration could we adapt to the high temperature exposure of the restricted area, but unfortunately, with the current level of human technology, even the most basic experiments cannot be conducted

When approaching the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, someone came to climb and observe changes in the restricted area, only to result in partial brain spontaneous combustion

Our initial guess was correct

See you in another six years"

Seeing the experiences of the initial explorers thousands of years ago on the Wasteland, Lin Feng's expression was solemn, always feeling there was something behind him, watching him.

If there truly was, it could only be that ever-approaching large Sun, also the creator of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area.

Taking a deep breath to calm his emotions, Lin Feng continued searching near the piles of rubble at the mountain top for the relics of his predecessors.

Soon, on another piece of rubble, he found the last two inscriptions, and compared to before, the markings were slightly blurred, these two were engraved more deeply and forcefully.

Indicating that the person who inscribed them had great strength, significantly increased ability, and could easily carve recorded words into hard rock:

"Unexpectedly, when returning again, it was already thirty years later

In these years, we opened multiple safe global routes, marking hundreds of water supply points, and the team continued to grow in the exploration of city ruins and refuge relics

Forming a large convoy of over ten thousand people

With the problem of food and clothing solved, a large amount of productivity could be unleashed for the construction of civilization

But modern industry needs population and a stable environment

And we, weary of migration, could only carry as many needed supplies as possible when collecting, making it difficult to settle down

After discussion and conception with Old Yang, we decided to establish a ground mobile nation, but this required extremely high energy supply, and currently, the only known way to propel billions of tons of buildings to achieve Boating on Land was the original Planet Engine built

Fortunately, Old Liu was previously a special engineer, involved in the specific design and construction plans of the engine, knowing that back then, additional heavy nuclear fusion devices were built underground in some important cities to ensure the operation of refuges for thousands of years

And this will also become the new starting point for human civilization"

After reading these, Lin Feng took a deep breath, perhaps the Oasis Battleship similar to Oasis Town was using the power devices left from the Old Earth Era.

Then the large mobile city group farther ahead could surely only be powered by the Planet Engine for forward propulsion.

And only in this way could it explain how a steel castle weighing hundreds of millions of tons could travel stably across the Wilderness.

But at the moment, what Lin Feng wanted to know more about was the secret behind the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area.

He had a feeling that the bizarre curse within the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area was the key to solving the dilemma of Three Days in the Sky.

And beneath these traces, there were still the last few lines of writing, marking the final record here:

"Wasteland Calendar Year Fifty, three hundred years later,

I and Old Liu returned to the initial starting point, while Old Yang had become the City Lord of the City of Hope, gradually distancing from us

Old Liu has been researching the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area's spontaneous combustion curse, he has initially analyzed it, related to some special energy, much like how a microwave heats, igniting the Spiritual Power within the brain of higher life forms
