Chapter 74 The water in Pangea is deeper than imagined

"Let's look for it...if we have no choice but to run away."

Lu Yuan rummaged through the box and took out a pile of old documents.

Nothing can withstand the erosion of time, and the lifespan of acid-free paper is only two hundred years.

The lower the files are, the more susceptible they are to moisture, and many writings are blurred.

He could only choose some that he could barely watch.

[Incomprehensible supernatural phenomena (Meida Civilization·Top Secret File No. 109709).]

[Author: Guangcha Gu.]

[On *month*, a large-scale serial disappearance occurred: people continued to disappear on the edge of the city, suspected to be the interference of unknown superpowers from the outside world. 】

[The final number of missing people was 44.]

Lu Yuan's eyes can help translate, so his reading speed is pretty good.

[File 1, post posted by the first missing person.]

[The specific content of this post is as follows:]

[Hello everyone, I am a farmer near the city. I have been farming on the farm on the edge of the city to provide food for everyone.]

[As you all know, there are always monsters watching outside the safe zone. Some of them are weird and scary.]

[The safe zone seems to be hidden in space. As long as we ignore them, they can’t do anything to us. 】

[But an extremely scary thing happened these days. I found that a part of the soil was seeping red liquid, just like blood, forming a small blood pit. 】

【(Comments from a bunch of netizens)】

The photo is very blurry, possibly due to special processing.

[Actually, this kind of thing happens all the time. You are not farmers, so you don’t know at all. There is a jargon in our circle that is not open to the public, called...life sacrifice.]

[Pangaea sometimes wants to devour flesh and blood. As long as you buy some livestock and bury them in it to satisfy this piece of land, the harvest in the coming year will be particularly bumper! 】

[This is common sense in the industry, so don’t make a fuss. Recently, there are more and more blood pits that require life sacrifices.]

【If there were no sacrifices, these pits would get bigger.】

Lu Yuan frowned when he saw this.

He confirmed several times that this was indeed a top-secret file and not some folk tale.

[(In the comments below from some netizens, most of the Meida people are scolding the farmers for being feudal and superstitious, and some are questioning that their food is grown from this kind of soil and can still be eaten by people.)]

【Anyway, I bought some meat and threw it into the red pit.】

[A strange thing happened, that lump of flesh slowly turned into my face.]

【photo】

Once again, this photo has been specially processed. Only the two eyes are clear...empty, without focus, with a cold dead silence.

Those eyes were staring at him, there was no bloody and terrifying scene, but it made people's scalp numb and cold sweat broke out.

A flash of extraordinary fire in Lu Yuan's mind suppressed this inexplicable panic.

But the post ends here.

What follows is the text added by the investigator himself.

[Later investigation: The poster was found buried in a pit, and his expression and movements were exactly the same as the photo.]

[At the same time, all 43 forum members who saw the photo were buried in the nearby soil. According to surveillance, they buried themselves and then lost their vitality. 】

[Only one person with level 2 extraordinary fire resisted this fear and survived.]

[Post-analysis: This unknown ability is suspected to be spread through photos and has the ability to control minds, which led the farmer to publish this post.]

[Follow-up treatment method: All the soil on the farm is burned at high temperature and covered with concrete. "Life sacrifice" is strictly prohibited. 】

[The original photo has been destroyed, and the remaining copies have been processed and no longer have the ability to be disseminated.]

In the end, Meda Civilization did not figure out what happened in this case.

So it is classified as an "incomprehensible mysterious phenomenon."

Lu Yuan couldn't help but be shocked. In other words, there are some abilities that can actually exceed the "safe zone".

Of course, the monster's body still can't get in.

It may be quite difficult to "transcend" this ability, otherwise it would be impossible to burn it once and pour a little concrete to clean it up.

"Damn it, just looking at the photo might be spread. It seems that the papers here are not allowed to be read randomly."

What surprised him even more was that the water in Pangea was indeed deeper than imagined.

The safe zone doesn't seem to be absolutely safe... Of course, "God" doesn't seem to guarantee absolute safety. It just has this name. Whoever believes it will be wrong.

Lu Yuan plucked up his courage and read the next few reports.

[Incomprehensible supernatural phenomena (Meida Civilization·Top Secret File No. 109711).]

[Author: Guangcha Gu.]

[On *month*, the cat-faced old lady incident: In a residential building, an old man turned into a cat-faced old lady. He completely lost his mind and attacked a single male at night. 】

[The final number of missing persons is 2.]

[The specific content is as follows:...]

【Cause of formation: unknown.】

[Processing method: After capturing it, pass through the light curtain in the safe area and physically destroy it.]

"What kind of mysterious file is this?"

There are also various "resurrection cases" and "giant rat cases in the underground tunnels", which make him feel embarrassed.

Fortunately, most of these strange things happened in the middle to late eighth era, that is, ten thousand years later.

The frequency of occurrence in the early stage is actually not high.

Or... almost none.

…

"Hey, I just found some ghost stories, but I still haven't found any information about the donkey-headed monster."

Lu Yuan simply moved several cabinets of papers into the storage space, then went to the room where the big metal ball was and watched it slowly.

Every time a paper is viewed, it is passed through in front of the camera, which is equivalent to being received by humans.

"Hello everyone, these things are special events encountered by the Meda civilization, and they make me a little nervous."

Lu Yuan deliberately showed the photo of dead eyes in front of the camera for a while.

"Everyone, please read it with me. It is all valid information and very valuable!"

According to the law of conservation of smiles: the smiles on countless people’s faces disappear.

These smiles obviously transferred to Lu Yuan's face.

He was indeed very happy.

The writing system of the Meida civilization is different from the mainstream human languages ​​such as Chinese, English, and Spanish, so Lu Yuan specially translated some of the papers in Chinese.

But that's about it. The number of articles here is at least a hundred thousand, and it might take him dozens or hundreds of years to translate them all.

Therefore, he will not translate the rest. It will be good if he can go through it in front of the camera.

Humans must decipher the writing system of the Meda civilization based on the translation he just made, and then read these articles by playing back the video.

As for whether it can be deciphered?

This is not something Lu Yuan should worry about!

Please, I can solve the translation problem by myself.

You can't do it, right?

He kept busy like this until midnight. Lu Yuan yawned. He read a lot of ghost stories, but still didn't find what he wanted...

"There is no information about the donkey-headed monster, and there is no information related to the 'demon'..."

"Alas, the Meda civilization has never fought against outside creatures. Perhaps they have observed 'demons' but were unable to distinguish them."

In essence, all "ghost stories" are just the "ability" of a powerful being.

The later the era, the more powerful beings there are, and the more "ghost stories" there are naturally.

With this thought, Lu Yuan had nothing to worry about. The most frightening thing in the world was the unknown. Now that it had become known, there was nothing to be afraid of.

If he could survive until the later stages of the era, he might be even stronger than those ghosts.

So he waved to the big metal ball: "Good night, go to sleep! Let's talk tomorrow!"
