I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade-Chapter 1338 - 318: The Strange Blue Light (Part 3)
Rustle, rustle!
A gust of wind blew in.
The leaves rustled noisily.
The gentle wind wrapped their hopes for the future, sweeping and covering the land.
At the moment of departure.
Cui Xiaofei looked at the tombstone and whispered softly.
"Thank you."
This thank you was gratitude for Cui Tian’s life-saving grace and also for his final choice. Without Cui Tian’s help, they still wouldn’t have found the location of the headquarters.
And everything he did would have been in vain.
When Cui Xiaofei left, Lin Fan gave him a satellite phone, but he needed two because while searching for Jin Poshan, he encountered a walking unit.
He wanted to take a look.
That group of soldiers in war armor was obviously related to Lin Fan.
To this, Lin Fan silently nodded. Everyone has their own goals and choices; others can only suggest but can’t stop them. The apocalypse requires everyone’s joint effort.
Individual abilities are really limited.
At the time of parting.
Lin Fan went to the Huangshi Library. The metal gate at the entrance was polished very brightly, and the surrounding environment was also tidied up. When he walked in, there was library staff sitting there.
The other person wore thick glasses and looked very thin, clearly someone who liked reading.
"Hello, Brother Lin."
Upon hearing footsteps, the person hurriedly got up to greet.
In their hearts, Lin Fan was an idol-like existence. The entire shelter could exist peacefully largely due to Brother Lin.
"Hello," Lin Fan greeted with a smile.
Books are crucial for the inheritance of human civilization. As long as books exist, the future of human civilization will be inherited. Therefore, the Huangshi Library is an important entity.
At Wang Kai’s arrangement, those who were willing to read were given the monotonous job of guarding the library.
"Brother Lin, are you looking for any specific books? I may not be able to say much else, but I know the classifications of the books here like the back of my hand," said the bespectacled man, eagerly volunteering.
"Thank you. I’m looking for books related to space-time, like those about returning to the future, and so on."
"Ah?"
"What’s wrong?"
"Oh, nothing."
The librarian shook his head. Sometimes, when he chatted casually with Chen He, Chen He would mention that when Brother Lin used to chat leisurely with him on the balcony, he would ask about various issues concerning turning back time.
These were things neither of them understood.
So often, they would just silently gaze at the starry sky, marveling at its beauty.
Lin Fan said, "I’m just looking around. Do you have any good recommendations?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
The librarian said, "Let me check."
He guided Lin Fan to a well-categorized bookshelf and found many books.
Such as: "The Shape of Time," "Time Travel," "The Universe in a Nutshell," and others.
As the librarian searched, he said, "Brother Lin, do you think someone will develop a time machine in the future and then travel back to the past, like before the apocalypse arrived, to warn the government about the coming apocalypse and zombie outbreak, and then take precautions?"
"Is that possible?" Lin Fan asked.
The librarian pondered, "I think it’s possible. In all those movies I’ve watched, various high-tech things often appear after a major disaster. Maybe in the future, someone really will travel back to the past and minimize the damage of the apocalypse. If that were possible, I would be able to be with my girlfriend."
"Girlfriend, huh..."
"Yeah, I met my girlfriend in college. I’m an orphan, so she’s my only family."
He stood in front of the bookshelf, looking for books, speaking in a relaxed manner about something that caused him deep, heart-wrenching pain.
Time is truly a healing balm.
For him, time has soothed his inner wounds. It’s just that sometimes, when he remembers, he sits alone on the balcony at night, looking into the deep night, reminiscing about the past.
"Have you met anyone suitable through matchmaking?"
"It’s not that there aren’t any suitable ones; I just haven’t considered it yet."
"Oh."
Lin Fan didn’t say more, taking a few books and leaving the library. Such matters aren’t easy to discuss further. While the person seems to have come to terms, in truth, their heart still yearns for the past.
...
At night.
Sitting at the table reading a book, Lin Fan’s head felt a bit swollen. The content made him feel muddle-headed, nothing as interesting as "Stark...".
"Ah, so tiring indeed."
He got up and went to the balcony. The now beautiful Huangshi had its lights illuminating the night, and many people were still awake, night running under the streetlights, exercising their bodies.
Huangshi has developed to this extent.
This was due to everyone’s joint efforts.
If it weren’t for everyone building it hand in hand, today’s Huangshi would still be in darkness, with no sign of light.
Suddenly.
Lin Fan looked up at the sky, concentrating. Although it was nighttime, he could vaguely see black clouds tumbling and drifting over. A purple lightning bolt cracked across the sky, followed by a rumble.
The sound was astonishing.
The entire shelter was awakened, some even in mid-sleep, suddenly startled awake by the thunderclap, bouncing directly out of bed.
Whoosh!
The swift rain poured down, instantly enveloping the entire Huangshi.
"The thunderstorm is here."
Someone exclaimed, with a hint of excitement in their voice.
After all, in their view, this might be the pivotal moment for becoming an Awakener.
And Gu Hang, who lived in the same building as Lin Fan, came to the balcony in his pajamas, looking outwardly calm but inwardly anything but, because until now, he hadn’t become an Awakener.
This situation was frustrating for him.
The thought of becoming an Awakener was very strong.
Lin Fan calmly watched.
He felt this thunderstorm was far from calm.
The momentum was stronger than ever before.
Even on the distant horizon, a strange blue light appeared.
