The Last 299 Days of Humanity

Chapter 78 After the rain, the sky is clear
Yu Qing looked at the other person and said, "I will definitely consider your suggestion, but I do have an important matter to attend to right now, so..."

The three-headed man laughed, "Stop making excuses. I know what you're really thinking. Right now, you're even mocking us for being monsters, and you're worried about that stupid, ignorant little girl and your three humanoid girls..."

Yu Qing hurriedly squinted his eyes and lowered his head slightly. He knew that this guy could read his inner world from his eyes, which made him wary.

The three heads spoke simultaneously from their three mouths: "You don't need to hide anything. Tell me, what do you want?"
"If you want beautiful women, we can create a dozen of the most perfect and serene beauties in human history for you. As for other material wealth, everything in Jishui is available for you to choose from."

"Thank you for your kind offer, but I really just want to be a pure, unadulterated person... I have a mission that my parents expect me to fulfill..."

"A mission? I think it's a kind of stubbornness, preferring to cling to the old ways rather than change."

On this earth, all living things that refuse to evolve will perish or have already perished.

I hope you'll reconsider. Talented people are rare, and I sincerely hope you'll stay.

"Let me try to break through this wall first, okay? Maybe one day I won't be able to make a living anymore, then I'll come back here and beg you to let me stay. How about that?"

“We will not force you. If you want to leave now, please do so. However, this room has neither a door nor windows, so you will have to use your wisdom to leave. If you cannot get out of this room, then I'm sorry, I consider you to have hit a brick wall.”

After the three-headed man finished speaking, the room went dark in an instant, and he disappeared.

Yu Qing's head was buzzing. Wasn't this still the same as forcing him to stay here? Who could possibly walk out of such a completely enclosed room?

But then he thought again, that wasn't quite right. The three-headed man had left silently, hadn't he? That meant there was still an exit.

He carefully recalled the scene of his conversation with the three-headed man, trying to find clues to solve the problem.

But all he could remember were those three heads bobbing back and forth, and the bizarre scene of three mouths talking at once; there were no other images.

He was so unserious at the time that he didn't even take the opportunity to observe what kind of environment he was in; he was only concerned with being curious about those three heads!

He couldn't even remember what color pants the man was wearing on his lower body.
Yu Qing communicated with Yao Dan and Fu Rong through the Lingxi necklace and stream of consciousness.

Yu Qing: "What did you see just now? What items were around us? Were there any beds, chairs, tables, or anything like that?"

Also, where is the light coming from, and what direction is the shadow pointing?

Yao Dan: "Apart from those three heads at the back of their heads, I didn't see anything. It seemed like there was nothing around me."

Furong: "I saw that she had three legs and was a woman."

Yu Qing: "Three legs? Really? Yao Dan, is that true?"

Yao Dan: "I really didn't notice that. Fu Rong, how did you figure out she was a woman?"

Furong: "Her voice has feminine characteristics. Also, when she's talking to our baby, her eyes suddenly light up, and her adrenaline surges..."

Yao Dan: "Husband, people can see that you're like a young girl in love."

Yu Qing: "What time is it? Stop talking nonsense. You guys should think carefully about how to get out of here." Yao Dan: "If you ask me, it's not difficult. We can look around, find the outer wall, and dig a hole with the virtual gun."

Yu Qing: "Use violence? Didn't you hear me? She wants me to use my wisdom to leave here?"

Even if we force our way out, what if she catches us again, saying we broke the agreement and violated the rules?

Yao Dan: "I was just saying that; it's still up to you, my husband, to do the thinking stuff."

"But this house is huge. When the three-headed monster appeared, we should have been inside a bright sphere."

Yu Qing: "Why do you say that? How do you know we're inside a bright sphere, and not a hexagon?"

Yao Dan: "Do you remember when we were captured? The intensity of the light that was shot at us was at least 60000 lumens. For a moment I couldn't see anything, but when it disappeared, my vision returned, and at that moment a huge spherical outline briefly appeared in the air."

When the three-headed monster appeared this time, I paid special attention to its flashing. This time, the light intensity was only about 600 lumens, and when it disappeared, a faint, similar outline briefly appeared. This house is definitely bigger than that sphere.

Yu Qing suddenly understood and shouted, "So that's how it is!"

Yao Dan asked anxiously, "How can we talk now? Aren't you afraid they'll eavesdrop?"

"They left a long time ago, what are we listening for? They've already released us."

"We haven't left this room yet."

"Where are the rooms? What a load of rubbish! We've all been fooled. Think about it, from the moment we were captured until now, have we ever been transferred off the vehicle that transported us? If this is a room, it should be on that vehicle."

But where would you find such a large physical vehicle? And it doesn't make any sense to use such a large vehicle to transport something as small as us. So, the means of transporting us wasn't conventional.

Since they can create something like a black hole that prevents us from leaving Jishui, they can certainly create something like a wormhole to move us from one place to another. I think they've politely escorted us to the foot of the mountain.”

"Are you so sure? Why not in the city or somewhere else?"

"They thought they could go all the way and have our car at the foot of the mountain. Besides, didn't you guys feel the ground was uneven just now? It's obviously in the wild, most likely the big valley we passed through on our way here."

I think their wormhole-like device isn't perfect yet; the energy can't be focused to achieve teleportation, and it can't be miniaturized, so it requires a relatively large space to realize.

Furong muttered, "There should be daylight in the wild, it wouldn't be this pitch black..."

Yu Qing said, "Don't worry, the light will be here soon. Since they have the ability to bring us here, it's not difficult for them to hide the light above our heads for a while."

At this moment, Yao Dan shouted, "It's in the wild! I grabbed a handful of sand from the ground!"

Yu Qing laughed and said, "Does grabbing a handful of sand necessarily prove we're in the wild? There's much stronger evidence."
