Chapter 113 39 Hour Countdown
"Well...what does it mean that the situation is interesting? And why can you tell whether what others say is true or false?" Xia Xiaoyu asked.
"My intuition is very accurate. This is my special ability." Su Ming confessed.
"Oh~~ I seem to understand something. You have superpowers, strong fighting ability, and very accurate intuition. You are also a time traveler. I haven't heard you say that your intuition is very accurate before. It seems that you have been hiding it from me before ~"
Xia Xiaoyu narrowed her eyes and smiled at Su Ming.
Su Ming glanced at Xia Xiaoyu secretly and asked, "I kept it from you, aren't you angry?"
"Why are you angry? I'm super happy now because you're honest with me now. This means you trust me more than before, and it also means I understand you better... I am now the person who knows you best in the world." Xia Xiaoyu said with a smile.
Su Ming was a little surprised and turned to look at Xia Xiaoyu. She was sitting next to him with her chin supported by one hand, looking at him with a smile. She was not angry at all and even very happy... This was exactly what surprised Su Ming. She was actually happy.
Ah, Xia Xiaoyu is so cute, how can this guy be so cute... Apart from her, no one else will be so nice to him, Su Ming thought.
Su Ming likes Xia Xiaoyu, but for some reason, he has a bad feeling in his heart.
Yang Yangyang was chatting with Liu Hu beside him. They talked about why other black gates were so dangerous, and why Daisy, as an ordinary person, had to walk around in the black gate.
Then Liu Hu said that in this black gate space, in addition to their village, there is also a place where people with special abilities and those with strong combat capabilities who dare to risk their lives gather. These people protect them from the corpses and beasts outside, and rescue those who accidentally enter the black gate from the outside.
Communication equipment in this space is completely unusable. After a while it feels like living in a primitive society. If you want to contact people from other spaces, you can only walk through the black gate.
Daisy is responsible for the connection between this village and the gathering place of the superpowers.
When talking about hiking through the Black Gate, Liu Hu praised Daisy highly, saying that there were only a few people in the entire village as courageous as Daisy, even among men.
"It seems that there is a division of labor in this place. The superpowers help you kill the corpse beasts, and you are responsible for growing food here, right?"
"Yes, although our food is monotonous, the grain output is not low. As you can see, there are only a little over a hundred people here, and we don't eat much.
In addition, this place has good sunlight and fertile soil, and can grow a lot of food without much care. The leftover food in a year can fill several houses, so we need to send it to the warriors in the gathering place."
Su Ming looked around and found that it was just as Liu Hu said, the lighting environment here was particularly good.
In fact, Su Ming never thought that there would be such a place where one could see the sunlight in this black door space. After all, all the previous black door spaces were inside buildings.
Su Ming also had a rough guess about the extension pattern of the black door space. This space turned the entrance of the feed room into a black door, and the interior of the feed room was incorporated into the space.
The other spaces should have been swallowed up in the same way.
But if this speculation is correct, then there shouldn't be a place where you can see the sun when you look up and be surrounded by fields, because it is not a closed environment and should not be able to be swallowed up.
Liu Hu, who was sitting opposite, sighed, shook his head, and continued:
“Farming is not hard for us, but those people are risking their lives to explore the way to the Black Gate. Without them, we would never be able to get out in this lifetime!
I'm fine because I received an education before coming here, but the children who grew up here haven't even received an education. Do they really have to stay here for the rest of their lives?
There are only so few people, and who knows when... You should understand what I mean. In short, it is impossible for human beings to survive for long in this damn place.
Our only way out is to rely on those superpowers who can fight against corpse beasts. Maybe one day, I can return to the normal world again."
Perhaps thinking of his past life outside, Liu Hu began to wipe away tears. He smiled sheepishly at Su Ming and his group and changed the subject: "How is the outside world? How is the investigation of this place going?"
"There was no progress at first, but now we have mastered the technology to crack this black door space." Su Ming said expressionlessly.
Liu Hu was stunned for a moment, and asked in a trembling voice: "Really? Really?!"
Wang Qiang and Sun Lanxin were stunned and looked at Su Ming in confusion. Yang Yangyang stared at the table, as if thinking about something.
"Really." Su Ming nodded slightly.
"At least Daisy has figured out the way to get here, and I know how to get to the space where I met Daisy. By using the technology that allows me to connect with the outside world, I can have the Bureau continuously send in powerful psychics.
We have encountered those synthetic... no, corpse beasts before. Although those corpse beasts have very strong vitality, A-level psychics can easily deal with them.
If there is an A-level psychic who cooperates, killing the corpse beasts efficiently will be a piece of cake.
By then, once the internal and external intelligence are communicated, we can use our military force to crush those zombie beasts and control the Black Gate space. With more human resources, we can definitely explore a route out of the Black Gate!
In fact, there is already a person with special abilities who has left the Black Gate Space. Although he has gone crazy, this just proves that there is a route to the outside world!"
Wang Qiang and Sun Lanxin's eyes lit up. They thought that Su Ming's words just now were only spoken to the village chief, but when they thought about it carefully... Su Ming's plan seemed to be really feasible!
When Liu Hu, who was sitting next to him, heard that he might be able to get out, his face flushed, his eyes were extremely excited, and his clenched fists trembled slightly:
"I've finally waited for it! I've finally waited for it! It's been eight years... a full eight years! I thought I would never see my wife and son again in this lifetime!"
Su Ming stood up and patted Liu Hu on the shoulder:
"Anyway, let's take a look at the situation of all of you here and understand the specific situation. There are some things I want to ask the children born here. Village chief, it would be best if you could find people who have been here longer than you. Perhaps you can get some new information from them."
"Okay! You guys wait here! I'll go find it right away!"
Liu Hu got up and left, and Su Ming took out his cell phone to check the time.
Now this mobile phone has lost its communication function, and its only functions are to check the time, make calls at short distance, and serve as a temporary flashlight.
Su Ming looked at the time and said to others:
“It’s seven o’clock in the morning now. According to the time, Isabella has been dead for about six hours, which means it will take another eighteen hours for Isabella to be resurrected.
Isabella will be resurrected at 1 a.m. tomorrow. The time for exchanging authority agreed upon by the minister is between 10 p.m. and 12 noon, so the time required for the information we have to reach the outside world is actually 39 hours.
But in the eyes of the enemy, the threat was created the moment Isabella was resurrected, so they will definitely try to kill us within eighteen hours.
That means... we will face our greatest test."
Yang Yangyang: "Besides this, do you know anything else?"
Su Ming nodded: "I have some idea, but I still need to verify the idea."
