Chapter 4 Abandoned City
It took Song Shuhui a while to realize that she was not in any danger.

Although the big box flew wobbly, it still stood firm.

She is now in the sky, looking at the direction, or the tall building she has always wanted to go to.She might arrive at the place that she thought would take several months to arrive tonight.

Song Shuhui felt an indescribable sense of wonder, could this box be a means of transportation in this world?It turned out to be a big flying box, and why was the vehicle abandoned in the forest?That forest used to be a scenic spot?

She got up from the ground and leaned over to the glass to look out. The forest was several times larger than she imagined. There was a swamp at the edge of the forest. There was a huge lake in front of the swamp. The lake branched out and flowed in all directions. .

If it wasn't for the flying box, Song Shuhui would not be able to cross the river. She could only go around along the river bank. In this way, the original plan may add another few months, and she may not be able to reach it by next spring. destination.

After crossing the big river, there is a large wasteland with stone slopes and mountains. Song Shuhui didn't expect that there are mountains here. Behind the mountains is farmland, maybe it is farmland. She saw a few scattered buildings covered with plants, which can hardly be seen The original appearance of the building.

The box didn’t fly very high. Along the way, some large beasts looked up, and some strange animals with wings tried to pounce on them. Those animals were like chickens with long necks, and they were much bigger than chickens. A small pterosaur that has long been extinct.

Song Shuhui watched in horror, but fortunately the boxes flew over smoothly.

After flying for a long time, there is still a long distance from the building that runs through the sky and the earth, but now I can see the shape of the huge building. It is not a columnar body that goes straight up and down, but a spiral rising. The entire outer wall of the building is Covered with fine, reflective metal curtain walls, in this night, the building still reflects the bright moonlight as it does during the day.

When you are far away, you only feel that the building is very tall, and this feeling is even worse when you get closer. Even if Song Shuhui is in the air now, you have to look up to see the top of the building interspersed in the clouds.

Why on earth is such a thing built and what is its function?Is it really Tongtian Tower?

Song Shuhui was curious and puzzled, but at this moment, the box that had been moving forward had the meaning of landing.Its speed began to slow down, the shaking became more violent, and it began to fall at an extreme speed as if it had no power.

The previous reminder sounded again, and this time there was a beep sound. I couldn't understand what the new warning was, and the red light under my feet became dim, as if I suddenly lost power.

Song Shuhui instantly understood that this was not about landing, but about throwing her to death halfway.

Lying on the ground, she took a posture to protect herself.At this time, one side of the box was suddenly opened, and the wind blew in violently, making the box shake more violently.

Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, Song Shuhui rolled and jumped out. She rolled several times on the ground and rolled several meters away. Her tail and the weeds on the ground buffered her several times so that she would not be injured.

While she was rolling, there was a loud noise behind her, and the box slammed into the ground hard, and then the box exploded with a bang.

Song Shuhui looked back and felt a little regretful that the means of transportation to go back was gone.

Rubbing her face with her paws, Song Shuhui began to look at the place she was in now. The situation was too critical just now and she didn't even look around clearly. Only then did she realize that there was a building in front of her. To be precise, it was a city.

Where she is standing now is the outskirts of the city, and the box is the means of transportation connecting the city and the forest.

Song Shuhui's original intention was to go to human towns to see the technological development of this world, but she never expected her wish to come true so soon.

From a distance, you can see all kinds of tall buildings standing up one after another. The style is quite unique. There are many shining machines flying over the buildings.

There are people, maybe humans, maybe other forms of intelligent creatures, but no matter what, there is still life here.

Song Shuhui watched excitedly and uneasily. The unease was not because she was a squirrel, but because there was no light. There was no light in such a dense city. Except for the flying machines, the city was pitch black, and all the buildings had no lights. Not only was there no light, but there was also no sound, voices, music, or the sound of machines operating, nothing at all.Even if it's a little far away from the city, it's not that you can't hear any sound.

If the sight is covered, no one will believe that there is a city in front of them.

It's as quiet as a dead city here.

Song Shuhui subconsciously grabbed the blades of grass at her feet, and the excitement just now gradually faded away.The bad feeling in her heart surged up strongly, she didn't even wait for dawn, and didn't care to check whether the surrounding environment was dangerous, so she ran forward quickly.

She urgently needs to confirm the conjecture in her heart.

After running for 10 minutes, Song Shuhui finally arrived at the first building, which is already on the edge of the city. The building is even more spectacular from a close distance, with strange devices hanging on the tall curtain wall.

However, Song Shuhui's mood became more and more heavy, the whole city was extremely quiet, all the buildings and machines were covered with plants, and there was a dilapidated scene everywhere.

This is an abandoned city.

Song Shuhui thought that the weapon abandoned in the cave was just accidental, it was too far away, it was normal to be abandoned, but she never thought that the whole city could be abandoned.

What happened here, where did everyone go?
Generally, humans may retreat only when the safety of all lives is threatened, such as large-scale natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions, or heavy weapons that cannot be resisted in wars.

Looking at the situation in the city, it doesn't look like it was bombed. There is a lot of damage on the surface of the building but it hasn't collapsed much.There are no earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. She is not sure if there are floods, but in such a high-tech world, the threat of floods to humans should not be that great.

Song Shuhui noticed another strange place. There are many plants growing in the city, but these plants do not grow towards the center of the road, but all fall towards the side with buildings. The road is smooth and clean without any damage. If she If she could go down and touch it, there might not be even a trace of dust. She even saw the reflection of the road under the moonlight.

This is even weirder than the city being abandoned. Are there still sanitation workers alive in the city?

Song Shuhui thought of the flying and shining machine that she saw when she was in the same place. After waiting for about ten minutes, there was a buzzing sound, and then a humanoid machine slid over from the other side of the road. The upper body of the robot was all metal, round At the same time, a large screen flashes on the head, and the entire lower body has many soft tentacles like an octopus. The two tentacles on the left and right stretch out to the sides. Once a plant grows beyond the road, it will be immediately cut by the tentacles. Lose.No wonder the plants on both sides are so neat.

The robot stopped at the end of the road, turned around, and cleaned the ground meticulously with its tentacles. The clean road that was already spotless was clean.

When it swept near Song Shuhui, the robot stopped moving, and its round head turned to look in her direction. It was clear that the robot had no eyes, but Song Shuhui felt like she was being watched by a beast. dare not move.

Song Shuhui was not close to the road, but stood on a high ground on the outside, with some branches covering her front. It stands to reason that the robot should not pay attention to her.

But a tentacle of the robot suddenly stretched out towards her, and a row of huge suction cups could be seen on the raised tentacles, and sharp blades protruded from the suction cups.

Even Song Shuhui's ears were pricked up, she turned somersault and backed away suddenly, but nothing that worried her happened, the blade just cut off the branch stretched out in front of her, and the robot quickly retracted after trimming the branch The tentacle moved on.

Song Shuhui let out a long sigh of relief, and rubbed her paws on her cheeks, messing up the fur on her face, and then calmed down.

This sanitation robot looks a bit weird. I don't know if it is designed this way for the convenience of work, or if the intelligent creatures in this world look like this.Her only reassurance is that at least the upper body is still in human form, which means that the intelligent creatures here are 80.00% similar to humans, and they may even be in human form.

The robot stopped and stopped and quickly disappeared before her eyes. Song Shuhui wanted to catch up and take a look, but she looked at the house next to her and couldn't help but want to go in and take a look to see what the interior of the room in this world looks like, which is different from the earth. Is it big.

Song Shuhui quickly jumped along the tree trunk to the nearest eaves. The ground here is not cement, but hard but has a gelatinous texture. Thick or thin silk threads are pulled out by the raised parts of the plants.

The door in front of her had been pushed open by the force of the plant, and Song Shuhui cautiously poked her head in through the opened door.

The interior of this building is very large. It may have been a shop in the past. The interior decoration is very simple. There are many shelves on the walls, and some goods are placed in a mess. The ground is not occupied by plants. A semicircular metal-like object on one side.

Song Shuhui observed for a while. There were no large animal footprints on the dust, and there should be no animals coming in. She walked in with confidence and tapped the device that looked like a child's helmet with the tip of her claws.

The appearance of this thing looks very dilapidated, and there is a long and thin crack. It is estimated that it is not the goods in the store, but something used by the owner himself.

There used to be a child in this house.

Song Shuhui picked up the helmet and put it on her head tentatively. A few seconds later, she dropped the helmet and stepped back, her eyes full of vigilance.

It turned out that when she put it on her head, the helmet started to squirm slowly.

This thing is alive?
