Blind Date in Time and Space

Six hours later.

Chen Ji and Zhou Wan came to the football country, and there was still no need for inspection when entering the country. After all, there was only one city left in the country. Most of the capable people had left here, and the remaining people lived in extreme shortage of supplies.

Chen Ji didn't meet anyone else along the way. After entering the football country, there were only a few highways leading to the outside world, which could barely be driven.

They didn't take the main road either. Huang Yuwen simply activated his superpower, causing the car to float on water and hit the ground.

Driving at such a violent speed, even if there were special powers to protect the car, the people in the car would still be jolted.

When the car bumped into a small town, Chen Ji almost vomited.

"Get out of the car first, there seems to be someone in front!"

Chen Ji opened the door and got out of the car, and helped Zhou Wan out along the way. The two of them leaned on the car to rest together.

"Hehe... I can't help it. My powers can't do anything beyond driving tools. A car can't turn into a plane."

"Next time you fly a plane?"

"It's possible, but there's no airport."

While the two were chatting, a few figures vaguely appeared in the small town ahead, looking towards here.

This is already the edge of the tropical rain forest, and a tributary of the Amazon River passes through the town, seventy or eighty kilometers away from where Ma Yien found it.

After entering this country, Chen Ji didn't meet anyone else along the way. He didn't expect to see traces of human habitation here, and he saw fire coming out from a distance.

"Could it be related to Lin Zhiyang?"

Zhou Wan looked cautiously at the town ahead.

Lin Zhiyang would not appear here for no reason. He was most likely with people from the Dark Doomsday Society, but he didn't know why they came to the tropical rain forest near the Amazon River.

"Go take a look first, just be careful."

Chen Ji is still confident in the strength of himself and Zhou Wan. The two of them can cope with most difficulties. If they can't, they can call Mu Xiaoxiao. Her fighting power is even more impressive.

No one else had any objections. Huang Yuwen, Huang Xiao, Kong Xiaomin and others all got out of the car and followed.

Chen Ji was walking in front and saw several men in dirty coats standing on the roadside under the dark red sun. When they approached, one of them shouted loudly:

"Hey, are you here to pick us up?"

He spoke English.

Chen Ji's heart moved and he replied in less than proficient English: "Are you all here?"

The others were silent.

Nowadays, there are very few people who can drive in the wild, so it is not surprising that the other party admits their mistake.

The man opposite him breathed a sigh of relief and said vaguely: "Of course we all have to believe in the great dark god, but our children are still too young to participate in the ceremony, so this time they will stay and we will follow."

Chen Ji learned several pieces of information:

There are still people in the town, and the Dark Doomsday Society has come here before and asked them to participate in some kind of ritual activity. The location seems to be deep in the tropical rain forest.

"snort!"

Chen Ji pretended to be angry and snorted, which silenced the people on the other side. Even after Chen Ji approached, they did not dare to take the initiative to ask questions.

Although they saw that Chen Ji and others all had yellow faces, which looked a little strange, they did not dare to question them.

Chen Ji looked at the appearance and dress of these people.

They should be the indigenous people here, with dark skin and black hair, somewhat similar to the yellow people.

However, these people seemed to have some mixed blood, and their eyes were deep.

The clothes of several people were very simple, like homeless people, and their bodies were very thin, probably the result of not having enough to eat all year round.

Chen Ji glanced at them, and these people lowered their heads.

"Do you remember the ceremony location?"

Chen Ji asked, "Can you go there by yourself?"

Several people looked embarrassed, and one of them said: "Sir, there are many mutated creatures in the rainforest. We can't go deep into the rainforest. Can we follow you?"

Sure enough, we were going to the rainforest.

Chen Ji asked a few more questions and learned that they had received a promise from a certain messenger of the Dark Doomsday Society that they could get what they wanted as long as they participated in a ceremony.

Food, clothing, fuel, etc.

As for why they were invited, they probably didn't know. Chen Ji didn't ask directly.

"Follow me."

Chen Ji asked these people to tie up sleds and skateboards behind the car and follow them. It was a bit cold, but fortunately they didn't have to walk.

"Thank you, Lord Messenger!"

Several people thanked them one after another, and team member Zhu Gao took the opportunity to ask their names and found out that their names were David, Luis, Felipe, etc., and learned that they had been living in a small town.

"Why do you have so much wood?" Huang Yuwen asked strangely.

"There are many non-mutated trees in the forest. Let's cut them down and burn them."

"Well."

Huang Yuwen patted his head, he was dumbfounded.

David, who appeared to be in his forties, explained with a sad expression: "But recently our food has become less and less. We sent several young people to the capital, but there was no news from all of them. There are only about forty people in the town now... …”

David said a lot, letting Chen Ji know how they lived.

In Metropolis, post-apocalyptic people burned everything they could.

But people who live near the Amazon forest have enough firewood, and as long as they are willing to go deep, they can still cut wood.

However, there are only more than forty people left in one town, which shows that this place has gone through many things before losing most of its population.

"Let's go."

Chen Ji didn't pity them, he still let them stand on the skateboard and let the car drag them away.

David and the others thanked them again, stood on the skateboard, and pulled the rope tightly.

The car started and when driving through the town, Chen Ji saw people in several houses and could hear the shouts of children, but the words they spoke were not in English.

"What they shouted was, Dad, have a nice trip and come back soon."

Zhou Wan acted as a translator to prove that David and others were not lying.

Chen Ji smiled and said, "Do you know the language here?"

"I've learned some of the Portuguese they speak~"

Zhou Wan proudly showed off that almost everything she learned before the end was useless.

"sharp."

Chen Ji held her little hand and chatted with her in a low voice.

Also pay attention to the outside.

The off-road vehicle drove forward at a speed of thirty-four per hour. After driving for more than half an hour, the tree stumps on the ground turned into trees.

All the trees near the town have been cut down. If they want to collect more wood, they can only run here.

Fortunately, only the first four months were extremely cold. In the next three years, the temperature was minus 5 degrees Celsius, which greatly reduced the consumption of wood.

"It's been a long time since I've seen the forest."

Zhou Wan held Chen Ji's hand, looked out the window, and said with emotion.

She went to Earth, but in her own world, she hadn't seen a forest for a long time.

Only in sparsely populated areas can you see trees.

However, these trees have died, and the leaves have been blown away by the wind, leaving only the bare branches there, covered with ice and snow, and the car lights shine through, making the forest dark and cold.

Once the largest forest on earth, known as the lungs of the earth, now not only the trees have withered, but the animals have also died or mutated, leaving only devastation.

Just like the current earth and current human society.

Chen Ji comforted her.

An hour later, when David and others were shivering from the cold, they finally saw light ahead.

The further the car drove, the more lights there were, as if a large number of people were coming from all directions and gathering deep in the forest to hold an unprecedented event.

"this……"

After seeing it clearly, Chen Ji was sincerely amazed that this was indeed a grand event!

More than five hundred cars were parked in a haphazard manner around the area. The forest was cleared into a vast area, and tens of thousands of people gathered around a dark high platform in the middle.

This high platform seems to be built with black wood, but the construction method is extremely rough. It is piled randomly and only a wooden platform is built on the top.

On the platform, a huge black flower was placed!

"them!"

Zhou Wan frowned. According to her understanding of black flowers, if this thing wants to survive, it must parasitize on the corpse of a living thing.

The black flower on the high platform is so huge and blooms so coquettishly, proving that it must also be parasitic on a very large creature.

"Wait a minute, Chen Ji, that high platform...!"

"Um."

Chen Ji nodded, "It should be the body of a large tree that mutated and was killed."

Zhou Wan calmed down: "What do they want to do? Just hold a ceremony?"

"I don't know. Come on, let's take a closer look."

Chen Ji pulled her out of the car and asked Huang Yuwen to find a place to park.

He originally thought that when he arrived at the scene, people from the Dark Doomsday Society would come to question him, but he didn't expect that there would be no need at all. Tens of thousands of people just casually gathered around the high platform. Many of them had wild eyes and screamed and worshiped. .

The scene was quite chaotic.

If tens of thousands of people gathered together before the end of the world, intelligence officers from various countries would already know about it.

But now is the end of the world, and the people of the Dark Doomsday Society chose to hold their gathering in the inaccessible Amazon forest, resulting in no news about the incident at all.

It’s also possible that people from the Dark Doomsday Society have done a lot of things, and no country wants to follow them.

Chen Ji and Zhou Wan got in smoothly.

Seeing that David and Louis were still following him, he said casually: "You can move around freely."

Several people looked at each other, but still chose to follow behind.

Chen Ji ignored them and pulled Zhou Wan through the crowd.

In addition to people from the Dark Doomsday Society, there are many new believers like David. Chen Ji asked a few people and found that they all followed for a certain purpose, either for supplies or to join the society. .

No one was captured by force, which surprised Chen Ji:

"Wu Ruonan also came here for a certain purpose?"

He didn't see Wu Ruonan, nor Lin Zhiyang, there were too many people.

"Maybe... let's go there."

Zhou Wan pointed to several temporary wooden houses erected under the high platform. Outside, there were several people wearing black robes and severely deformed bodies looking at them.

Chen Ji and her came nearby and observed the crowd carefully.

There are people in the house, but I don't know if Wu Ruonan and Lin Zhiyang are there.

"I don't feel good."

Zhou Wan held his hand and whispered, looking around, "The environment is uncomfortable."

Chen Ji hummed, "It seems that because of this group of people, the atmosphere here is different from that in the forest. If you can't stand it, just tell me and I'll find another place to kiss you."

Zhou Wan's face was a little red. It would be better to just give him a kiss and let him shine it with his light ball technique.

The two walked around the site again, and finally confirmed that there was only a high platform and a few wooden houses, and nothing else.

"Brother Chen!"

Huang Yuwen found him and lowered his voice and said, "Should we go to the wooden house to find Wu Ruonan? If she is here, she should know a lot of information."

Chen Ji thought for a moment, "How long will it take for the people from Grandma Luo's company to arrive?"

"It should be fast. We walked slowly after entering the forest."

"Wait for them and ask them to come forward. If you can't wait, call someone."

"Just call? Uh, that's right. It's impossible to sneak into the cabin."

Huang Yuwen had to wait patiently.

Kong Xiaomin beside him was a little nervous. There were at least thousands of people from the Dark Doomsday Society here, and he didn't know how many powerful people with powers were there.

Chen Ji and Zhou Wan found a tree pillar to sit down and waited.

Half an hour later, he saw the president, director, and general manager of Grandma Luo's company, namely Cao Qing and others, pushing through the crowd and walking towards the wooden house.

Huang Yuwen stepped forward and communicated with them quietly.

The two sides seemed to have reached an agreement. Cao Qing stood not far from the wooden house and shouted towards it: "Chairman, are you there?"

Shouting like this in a noisy crowd is actually not too conspicuous.

But the response he got was:

"Get him!"

A man's angry voice came from the room, and several people from the Dark Doomsday Society took action immediately. They quickly came to Cao Qing and stretched out their twisted palms to grab him.

Cao Qing's face darkened and he did not dare to approach this group of severely deformed people. He dodged to avoid it, but then, seven or eight more people from the Dark Doomsday Society came around, and more people wearing black robes looked over. .

You can't escape even if you have wings.

Unless Cao Qing also has domain-level abilities!

The leaders of Grandma Luo Co., Ltd. all looked ugly.

"stop!"

A woman's voice came from the wooden house again, but this time she spoke in Xia Guoyu.

"Chairman!!"

The ugly expressions of Cao Qing and others turned into surprise in an instant.

Their chairman is indeed in the house!

But what's going on? Is the chairman going to join the Dark Doomsday?

In a wooden house in the middle, several people walked out.

The leader was a thin man with black flower branches wrapped around his face. His original appearance could not be seen. The black branches wrapped around his entire face and neck, only revealing a pair of strange eyes.

"It's the bishop of the Dark Church!"

Next to Chen Ji, Huang Yuwen's face also became serious, and he explained that there are only four bishops in the Dark Doomsday Society. They are the most powerful people under the Pope. Their strength is unclear, and few people see them taking action.

The biggest characteristic of the dark bishops is that they must carry black flowers on their bodies, but they will not be too polluted.

For example, in the case of the bishop in front of him, the black flower branches on his face are wrapped around him instead of growing in his body.

"It looks a bit evil."

Chen Ji nodded.

Standing next to the Dark Bishop was Lin Zhiyang.

Black flowers also appear on his face.

Different from the dark bishop, the black flowers grow on Lin Zhiyang's body, extending from his neck to his face, and then a dark bud emerges from his forehead.

"bud?"

Chen Ji was thoughtful.

Lin Zhiyang was side by side with the Dark Bishop. Behind them was a tall and strong middle-aged woman. Judging from the looks in Cao Qing's and others' eyes, it should be Wu Ruonan.

In other wooden houses, other important figures from the Dark Doomsday Society came out one after another, as well as powerful people who were invited from all over the world.

The party finally started.
