The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 1279 One hundred faints
"Ahem." He cleared his throat.

"First of all, these black creatures are the embodiment of different languages. Human beings use different languages, but they want to build a Tower of Babel leading to heaven. They are doomed to fail. This is exactly what they are repeating."

"Go back to the name of the room - Riddle Forest."

"Riddles are easy to understand, but communicating with people of different languages ​​is difficult, like guessing riddles."

"As for the forest, from a visual point of view, countless black towers form a forest. The trees in the forest all grow towards the sun but eventually reach their limit, which foreshadows the ending of the black tower. No matter how hard you try, you cannot reach the sun."

"In addition, individually speaking, human beings are lonely and can never understand each other; but as a whole, human beings are not alone. As long as everyone has the same ideals and pursuits, even if they cannot build a tower leading to heaven, they can still create something Create a forest for humans to survive.”

After finishing speaking, he looked at everyone.

"One hundred faints!" Zhang Wei applauded exaggeratedly, "It's very thorough. I have nothing to add!"

"As expected of an academic." Gregor praised: "Nothing like me, a wild and wild leader."

"No, no, that's nonsense." Liao said modestly.

"No, you said it very well." Suzaku looked at everyone, "So, what is the problem?"

"I still feel lonely!" Zhang Wei said, "Maybe my answer was wrong."

The horse shook his head, "It's a bit close, but I feel like it can't be summarized in this room."

"Maybe it's not that complicated." Gregor boldly guessed: "I think the problem is 'language'."

"I agree." The horse nodded, "After all, these black creatures are the main body here."

"Yeah." Gregor analyzed: "Human beings originally created language in the hope of communication, collaboration, and unity, but in the end they must desire expression, understanding, and completeness. Because humans are born lonely."

So far, no one has any objections.

Gregor continued: "Language is great. It can make everything meaningful, conceptual, and ideal. Human beings have created countless miracles with language. But language is also pale. Human beings can never truly understand each other through language. It is better to say that it is precisely Language makes people’s hearts more complex and subtle, and builds spiritual barriers.”

Gregor thought for a while and further explained: "Look, expressing love between animals is nothing more than rubbing you, licking and wagging their tails, and expressing hostility is nothing more than baring their teeth, roaring and attacking. Without complex language between animals, there would be no human beings." There are no barriers between misunderstandings and lies.”

Gregor lit up his cigarette and took a puff with a smile. "My humble opinion is ridiculous."

"It's so shallow, what a real insight!" They began to exchange business opinions.

"Teacher Gao has something." Zhang Wei gave a thumbs up.

"The problem is language." Qing Ling was very sure.

Others had no objections.

"Okay, we have a consensus on the problem, which is language." Suzaku looked at everyone: "What about the answer?"

"soul."

This time, Gao Yang directly told the answer - the answer he got from Qing Ling.

"Second." Gregor smiled and flicked off the cigarette ashes, "The loneliness of the soul prompted humans to invent language, and the limitations of language made humans recognize the loneliness of the soul."

"Isn't this just a waste of time?" Zhang Wei didn't understand: "It's better not to be busy."

"Do not."

Suzaku looked at the countless broken towers above the sea of ​​clouds with a firm gaze: "Only when human beings recognize their own loneliness can they devote themselves to greater beliefs and beliefs without hesitation. Even if there is no high tower leading to heaven on the outside, there must be one on the inside. A bridge back to the soul.”

"Okay, okay! Each student is a top student! All of them are the same!" Zhang Wei was convinced.

He looked up and shouted: "The problem is language! The answer is mind!"

no response. "The problem is language! The answer is soul! Cang Gou! Just squeak when you hear it!" Zhang Wei continued to shout.

no response.

——No, that’s the wrong answer?

It was already starting to feel awkward. It was so embarrassing that she had done such neat reading comprehension.

But that’s okay, the awkwardness won’t go away, but it can be transferred.

He looked at Gregor: "Teacher Gao, how about you analyze it from other angles?"

"Ahem." Gregor couldn't handle the hot embarrassment and immediately threw it to Gao Yang: "Let the topic initiator, Captain Gao, come first..."

"Watch your step!" Chen Ying reminded.

A black tower was breaking through the sea of ​​clouds and flying towards them.

Nana immediately led everyone to fly aside.

"Wow—"

The huge straight tower passed by everyone, setting off a hurricane.

"Everyone, look!" Hong Xiaoxiao shouted.

All the broken towers above the sea of ​​clouds seemed to feel some kind of call, and they took off one after another, like a matrix of large rockets rushing into space.

"Pound pound pound——"

Soon, the black towers penetrated into the invisible dome one after another, like countless hanging black giant swords.

"It's so permeable." Zhang Wei felt uncomfortable all over, thinking of the dense stalactites on the top of the stalactite cave, as if it would pierce his scalp in the next second.

"Be careful, they are flying up too." Chen Ying reminded again.

At some point, the black creatures on the earth were also densely packed through the sea of ​​clouds, like an inverted black meteor shower.

Soon, these "black meteors" gathered toward the center and extended up and down, forming two "meteor belts". They were tightly entangled and spiraling up, like a "gene chain" connecting heaven and earth.

Countless lonely individuals ultimately relied on the same belief to accomplish miracles that reach the sky.

This shocking scene seemed to confirm everyone's speculations.

At the same time, a translucent circular space was quickly rising from the inside of the "gene chain" and stopped accurately in front of everyone, like a space elevator stopping midway.

Cang Gou wore a mask and stood at the elevator entrance: "Everyone, please come in."

"Brother Dog, can you show up earlier next time?" He joked, "I'm almost dying of embarrassment."

"It's just a grind." Zhang Wei complained.

The gray dog ​​was silent.

Everyone said no more, stepped into the elevator, and quickly ascended along the passage.

The countless black towers hanging upside down from the dome turned into a strange vortex at some point, and the "gene chain" was like an umbilical cord, inserted directly into the center of the vortex.

As the elevator continued to accelerate, a whirlpool seemed to appear in everyone's heads, and thoughts, logic, concepts, and memories were all mixed together.

At the last moment when he was sucked into the vortex, Cang Gou's voice sounded:
"Next room, Desert Ocean."
