Successors of all mankind

The tin can emerged from behind a mound, carrying two people:

"Stop right there! What are you doing, sir? What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Upon seeing an acquaintance, the tin can froze instantly.

Yu Le breathed a sigh of relief and threw the large amount of gold coins he had been carrying onto the ground.

“I’m leaving, but I’ve never properly thanked you, nor have I been able to give you anything in return. But things are different now.”

Yu Le patted the large bag of gold coins and said:

“I’m surprised I even managed to carry this thing around. Be careful to hide it. You guys are smart; you know better than I do where these things can be used.”

Yu Le didn't know how much this thing weighed, but he was surprised that he could carry it across the Gobi Desert to find it.

He wanted to throw some things down more than once along the way.

Because it was too heavy and too far.

But now that they've actually arrived, they see only a few people in the tin can.

He felt he hadn't memorized enough.

"There are no gold bars inside, only gold coins of equal face value. You won't be able to sell the gold bars, but don't worry about that. Because if all else fails, you can melt them down."

"Alright, from now on you must tell me you've never seen me again, otherwise it won't be good for anyone!"

After laughing, Yu Le prepared to leave.

"Sir, are you really leaving?"

The tin can instinctively wanted to hold on; they had received so much, but didn't know how to repay them.

It's like entertainment!

"Yes, I have my own things to do. But do you have any vehicles or anything like that you could give me?"

"Of course, please wait a moment."

Soon, the gatekeeper arrived, bringing with him a mount they had carefully selected.

"Sir, this is the best camel in our settlement!"

"Camel? No, no stuff inside the car? Didn't you smugglers get a lot of those?"

Instead of the vehicle Yule had envisioned, they brought a creature that was hard to classify as either a camel or a horse.

This thing even has six legs!

The gatekeeper hesitated for a moment and said:

"Sir, we can't keep those cars."

"Ah, I see. Then this thing, this thing..."

Looking at the long face in front of him that resembled neither a horse nor a camel, Yu Le couldn't help but rub the corner of his eye.

"Is there anything I should be aware of with this?"

Well, something is better than nothing.

"No, it finds its own food and is very docile! It also has great stamina!"

The gate constantly whistled, a testament to the camels that their settlement was most proud of.

After a quick tidying up and learning some basic camel riding techniques,

Yu Le was about to leave on his strange creature.

Before leaving, the gate seemed to sense something and asked:

"Sir, are you not coming back?"

He knew that they were from two different worlds, and he felt that everything had ended after he left the slave Nor.

But I never expected to meet this person again, and in this way.

"That should be it, the main gate."

Knowing this was the final gate, they all bowed their heads and said:

"May the glory of mankind protect you, my lord!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Le nodded and smiled, saying:

"Bless you all as well!"

A blessing from humankind is a gift more precious than gold, yet difficult to truly perceive.

Chapter 62 was actually this long ago?

Camels are indeed a good civilization!

This thing looks weird, but it works surprisingly well.

It's gentle, convenient, and most importantly, not slow!

Yule, who had never ridden a horse before, had a great time on the camel's back.

"This thing is so useful! I've never ridden an animal before!"

Yu Le originally wanted to say "horse," but he suddenly realized that this thing didn't seem to be a horse or even a camel.

The camel carrying him chewed and hummed.

"If you're interested in riding animals, we can catch a dragon for you to use as your vehicle once it's all over."

However, after saying that, Pandora changed her mind and said:

"Forget it, let's just redesign a dragon for you that will definitely be problem-free! I still can't trust the existing ones!"

Dragon Knights? That certainly sounds tempting!

Who wouldn't want to ride a dragon to the heavens and the earth?

Every boy must have dreamed of riding on the back of a dragon and charging towards an endless, powerful enemy!

for sure!

"However, redesign a dragon?"

Isn't that a bit too much?

Yu Le is just a shut-in from the 2K era; he has never been treated like this before.

Pandora said seriously:

"Yes, if you wish, we can redesign several, dozens, or even thousands of them!"

"My respected sir, look before your eyes, look above your head. This is the human world, human civilization, human heritage—in other words, it all belongs to you!"

"You are the sole legal heir to all of this!"

Yu Le looked at the world before him, following Pandora's instructions.

It sounds wonderful.

But...the only one...?

"Pandora, is there really no one else?"

Many boys have probably fantasized about being all alone in the world, where they can do whatever they want.

Entertainment is no exception, and now it can be considered a disguised realization.

But... that boundless loneliness is something you can never experience in your imagination.

In response, Pandora lowered her voice:

"That's what I wanted to ask you too, sir. How did you survive? Did you awaken in some forgotten safety facility? Do you know of any other survivors? Or even the slightest possible information?"

Before the advent of Yule, it had traveled to countless places and endured countless days and nights.

I've also encountered many AIs and aliens who are determined to search every site to see if they can find any other survivors.

But there was no one left.

This great civilization has fallen into complete silence.

Therefore, when Yule appeared, it was simply unbelievable.

This civilization still has its last spark!

Its creator has not left.

They still have their own parents!

Now, it cautiously inquires whether Yule has seen any of the remaining survivors.

Sensing the cautious tone in the music, he carefully chose his words:

"At least before I came to this godforsaken place, there were definitely a lot of people there."

"A lot? Really? How much? Dozens? Or thousands?"

"Seven billion, but that was before I came here."

Yu Le was reluctant to tell it the truth, nor did it want to deceive it.

"Are you experiencing memory gaps? This is a common symptom of waking up from a cold."

Pandora accurately analyzed the problem and offered her own reasonable speculation.

But then came another sentence:

"But, but, seven billion, that's impossible, that's too much. Do you remember what era it was before you woke up?"

According to Pandora's database, when it was created, the entire civilization had only a few thousand people left.

This civilization was flourishing, and its borders were expanding. But the flame of civilization was gradually fading and difficult to reignite.

Therefore, the number seven billion could not possibly be from the era in which it was created. It couldn't even be from the previous thousand years.

It suspects that Yule may be an earlier survivor who has been dormant ever since due to some accident.

"Em, 2026."

After the blue data stream flickered a few times, it asked again:

"Excuse me, is it the year 2026?"

Amazing! How many more 2026s are there?

"How many more could there be? In 2026!"

But Pandora was still asking:

"Then which year is it, sir?"

Can the Gregorian calendar be repeated?

Yu Le was completely stunned. No, what exactly is going on with your history?

"Then let me ask you, sir, what do you think?"

"Sure, you can ask!"

Yu Le was still a little dazed. Just a few simple words had made him feel the profoundness of civilization.

It is winding yet endless!

"Excuse me, are you aware of the leak of the world-destroying virus?"

An apocalyptic virus? Is there really such a terrifying thing?

No, I haven't heard of it.

"Then it doesn't seem to be Ji Xinji."

"So, are you aware of the Nagran Massacre? Nearly 200 million people were killed or injured; it will definitely be recorded."

Two hundred million dead and injured? Is that still a "massacre"? That's practically a world war!

"No, I haven't heard of it either."

"Hmm... what about the Möbius Space Elevator crash? The biggest space safety disaster in history."
