Chapter 376 Biological Extinction

I don't know when the sound of eating vines gradually decreased.

My hanging heart and No. 12 finally came down.

At this time, No. 2 slowly opened his eyes and asked us, "Are you leaving?"

I was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly, "It's gone, it seems to be gone!"

No.2 nodded and looked very tired. He said, "Thank you again this time, or we will die. Those ancestors are not ordinary creatures. Their bodies have undergone great changes, or evolution, after eating those strange flying fish."

Hearing him say this, I hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on and what has changed?"

No.2 looked a little tired. He looked at me and said, "Do you know the last biological extinction?"

I nodded and said, "The earth will face a mass extinction every million years, because the earth regulates its own climate, so that every three million years or so, the earth will fall into an ice age. At that time, the temperature of the earth will fall to a very low state, and only about 2-3 creatures can survive in this cold climate, and most of them will become extinct. The latest biological extinction today, the last ice age, was about 2 million years ago. That's the century when the Maw and the saber-toothed tiger lived.

2 nodded and said, "Although I don't know as much as you do, I know that the mass extinction of organisms is generally caused by the cold climate. Even cold-tolerant animals will be extinct due to the death of a large number of plants and the decay of food. But in fact, it doesn't seem to be the case. Our ancestors seem to have found special ways to keep warm and preserve food.

I frowned and asked, "What kind of method is it?"

At this time, No.2 seemed to be lost in thought and said, "I don't know how to describe it to you. Anyway, you'd better come with me. Some of the things I saw behind the wall are difficult to explain clearly."

After saying that, No. 2 made another magic seal and slowly recited the spell.

As his spell sounded, the vines slowly shrank back, slowly revealing the gap between the blocked snake skulls.

At this time, we saw that it had become quiet again, but the fire on the 2nd was also burned out, so it was dark everywhere.

No.12 poked out a neck and looked around, then nodded and said, "It seems to have gone far, and I can't feel the breath of any creatures."

I also explored it with my night eyes, but I didn't find any fluctuation of mind.

I stood up slowly and patted the dust on my body. I said to No. 2, "According to you, not only can animals run out of that wall, but also connect a space-time tunnel. The other end of the tunnel was the ice age of the last great extinction?"

No.2 nodded and said, "I'm afraid it's like that."

At this time, on the 12th, came: "Didn't you say that you ran to the wall and was chased out by the runaway animal? Then how did you see behind the wall?"

2 did not hesitate and said, "It's because the wall is transparent. Oh, no, it should be said that it is sometimes transparent and sometimes blurred. In short, I saw something that can't explain, or it may be that those things have actively entered my brain."

I nodded and said, "Well, don't ask, I probably know what's going on. There may be a very large space-time cracks on the wall around this tomb. Those space-time cracks that lead to the Ice Age millions of years ago are not impossible, so No. 2 I just saw some strange phenomena. Otherwise, how can it explain that there are so many large animals and even birds living in this narrow tomb? Obviously, there is more than one such passage?

2 said, "That's right, and didn't you say that the ages of moa, pterosaurs, ancestors and overlord pythons are different? In this way, the ages of connection may be different in different space-time cracks."

I nodded and said, "It's really likely, but we still haven't seen it until we know."

We were about to raise our legs and set off when we asked again on the 12th, "That's right! Do you think this tomb is the last building of this ancient tomb?

I shook my head and said, "I don't know, what's wrong?"

No.12 said, "If this is the last building, then the toad king we are going to deal with is probably not a creature living underground, but a heterogeneous creature through these underground space-time cracks!"

I understand what he said, because if this was the last building, the Toad King could not have been hiding here, otherwise we would have met long ago...

Thinking of this, I looked at No. 2 and almost exploded!

Almost at the same time, we said together, "The black monster just now! Could it be the Toad King!"

The more we think so, the more we are sure of this idea. The creature just now, whether in terms of body size, action or signs, is like a cultivated adult-shaped toad!

However, if that guy is really the Toad King, No. 2 and I have a bottom in our hearts, because that guy doesn't seem to be very powerful. We fought evenly with me, and then we escaped.

Sure enough, the toad king seems to be much inferior to the giant snake.

But this is just a guess. If that guy is really a toad king, it is not known what his strength is.

Thinking of this, we all subconsciously looked around to see if the black shadow was still nearby.

Of course, there was nothing, and the shadow had long disappeared.

If it disappears, it is likely to escape into the space-time crack, and it seems that this trip must go.

Thinking of this, we no longer hesitate and went straight to the wall mentioned by No. 2.

No.2 raised several regiments of industry fire in the palm of its hand as lighting. At the same time, if there is anything unclean approaching, the industry fire can also warn us.

Soon we arrived close to the wall.

Of course, it is not so smooth along the way, and occasionally fresh bones of large animals appear in front of you.

These are all poor insects who didn't have time to escape just now and were eaten by the ancestor beast.

Looking at these hot bones, we are all shocked.

When we came to the front of this wall, I could see at a glance that there was a huge oval space-time crack in the wall.

This crack looks like a huge black eye without white eyes.

To be honest, I was scared by the appearance of the empty crack at this time, because this shape is obviously different from the naturally formed cracks I saw before, and this space-time crack seems to have been artificially chiseled.

The wall attached to the space-time crack is a tomb wall piled up of black masonry. Those bricks have the same scene of a bird flying in the sky with the sun and the moon, which is very classical Chinese.

In contrast, at that time, the rift was like a gate full of weather, which reminded people of the mythical and legendary Nantian Gate.

Except for me, the other two people can't see the existence of space-time cracks. In their eyes, they must see a whole wall.

So on the 12th, he hurriedly pulled my sleeve and said, "How's it going? What did you see?"

I was about to tell him what I saw, but No. 2 said, "It's here again! The mysterious scene appeared again!"

I looked back and saw that in the black space-time crack, a white airflow was breaking through the layers of darkness, like a huge monster, with teeth and claws.

But I saw clearly that it was not a monster, but a snowflake blown by the hurricane.

The power of the hurricane alone can blow down the blizzard from the other side of the space-time crack. You can imagine how bad the weather opposite the crack is.

Think about it, if it weren't for such a wind and snow, how could 90% of the creatures be extinct?

The strong wind brings not only a thrilling cold, but also a clear scene on the other side of the crack.

In the wind and snow, there is a city that seems to be made of ice.

The city is based on ice and snow, stretching up layer by layer, with a total height of more than 100 floors. From a distance, each floor is about ten meters, so this huge city is about 1,000 meters high, piercing the clouds.

And in this stacked city, we see a little yellow light, like a warm light, as if countless people live in it.

I finally know why No. 2 said that he saw an incredible phenomenon, because millions of years ago, it was really incredible that such a magnificent ice crystal city existed.

And such a magnificent building that goes straight into the sky is simply a miracle, and it is impossible for human beings to build such a building.

Everything in front of us can only be described as fantasy or fantasy, which is not a category that people can imagine at all.

The city is built with edges and corners, standing upright in the wind and snow, and thousands of weather give people a strong sense of oppression.

Just when No. 12 and I couldn't close our mouths, No. 2 said, "This city is not for people to live in, but is surrounded by those ancestor beasts. I saw countless ancestor beasts crawl out of the city and chase the animals on the earth with my own eyes."

When I heard what he said, I took a cold breath.

After a long time, I said to the two, "It seems that our ancestors have a high degree of civilization that we can't imagine. We must go and have a look. Even if we die in our life, we can't miss such a scene! Let's go!"

I was very lofty, but No. 2 grabbed me and said, "If you go out like this, you will be frozen into ice every minute. If you don't want to keep warm, I advise you not to act rashly. The temperature outside may be about Baidu below zero."
