Apocalypse: I watch a survival game in a safe house

"But after the apocalypse, are people's beliefs strong enough to give rise to so many aliens?"

He shook his head.

"I don't understand Inhumans, but do I understand humans? Their only belief is to keep themselves alive. They won't pray for others to become stronger and then destroy them."

"This is fundamentally different from the chaotic ancient times. People are more rational and more selfish."

Yang Xinxin smiled and nodded.

"Brother, I think so too."

"So," she pointed at the Nine-Story Demon Tower, "their description of the Nine-Story Demon Tower gave me some clues."

Zhang Yi looked closely.

The material contains descriptions of the Nine-Storied Demon Pagoda by King Gesar and Guru Padmasambhava.

It was born in the Demon Kingdom era.

The high priest of the Demon Kingdom followed the devil's wishes and ordered people to build a high tower and offer sacrifices with flesh and blood.

The highest level of sacrifice is humans with special talents.

Water with blood, make musical instruments with skin and bones to please the devil, and show sincerity to the devil with bloody killings.

In a nutshell, the construction of every nine-story demon tower is accompanied by the deaths of countless people.

"Xinxin, what do you think?"

Zhang Yi asked.

Yang Xinxin's gaze gradually became deeper, and the smile on her lips became much more intense.

"My guess is, it's the human heart!"

She stroked her chest, which was now slightly flatter.

"Brother, do you still remember what Jueguo said to you when we parted?"

Zhang Yi recalled that time and murmured, "In this world, there has never been any such thing as reincarnation, let alone the power of faith."

“Yes, it’s just the human heart.”

It dawned on him.

"You mean to say that the so-called supernatural powers come from the power of the human mind!"

Yang Xinxin said, "This statement is a bit metaphysical and difficult to explain. However, we can assume that humans possess a certain special energy. Within an individual, this power is very weak."

"Of course, since the human population is so large, there will always be some special individuals who are born with more powerful special energies."

"They are born aliens. In the past, we thought they were people with super powers."

Zhang Yi nodded, and gradually understood.

"So, the Nine-Storied Demon Tower, or even the purple pyramid in the underground world I once saw, are actually energy collectors! They exist to harvest large quantities of this special energy from humans."

"Therefore, they need to be subjected to bloody sacrifices to release the energy from the human body through killing."

When you think about some things, the truth will be revealed.

Zhang Yi suddenly raised his head, looked at Yang Xinxin in surprise and said:

"That's why, after the end of the world, so many strange people suddenly appeared in this world!"

"Because the more people die, the more their special energy will dissipate, creating a huge energy field!"

"Others who absorb this power will become Inhumans."

"Furthermore, as long as the apocalypse continues, the more people die, the higher the probability that the survivors will mutate, and the stronger they will become!"

A mysterious smile appeared on Yang Xinxin's lips.

She hugged her legs and sat on the sofa, looking sideways at Zhang Yi.

"Brother, you are very smart. This explanation basically fits everything we have experienced so far."

"However, the truth of the matter may not be that simple. We need more intelligence to see the problem thoroughly."

The more in-depth the conversation with Yang Xinxin, the more Zhang Yi felt in awe of superpowers and the emergence of the end of the world.

At first, he thought it was all accidental.

But as he got to know the world more deeply, the ignorant side of his heart became wider, and his awe became uncontrollable.
