59 A New World

If other people had heard Hei Teng’s inhuman words, they might have been extremely angry. However, Hao Meng was in smart mode, so her emotions were extremely indifferent. Her face was as calm as an ancient well.

It was only because Hei Teng had attacked her and wanted to make her his food that Hao Meng was not going to be soft-hearted.

Her bright eyes blinked, and his entire body collapsed to the ground. Hei Teng was brain dead.

“The facilities and terrain here are not suitable for building an experimental base. Let’s move to another place.”

Hao Meng said to the air. Mo Yun, who was in the alternate dimension, nodded.

As a developed country, the Bei Shi Nation had developed a lot of underground spaces, so there must be underground shopping malls.

Not every underground garage or shopping mall had people. The insect disaster happened too quickly, and more people didn’t have time to know the secrets of the insects.

This highlighted the incompetence of the Bei Shi Nation’s officials.

If the government’s higher-ups had not fled first, but instead organized a mass transfer underground after understanding the characteristics of the gold-eating ants, many lives could have been saved.

Unfortunately, heroes were common, but not so as a country.

After killing the man-eating beast, Hei Teng, Hao Meng didn’t stop. She quickly left the underground parking lot.

Mo Yun looked at the hundreds of ordinary people in the garage. They were surviving in the dark and hopeless underground, surrounded by feces from days ago.

Some people were sleeping on excrement with no hesitation. They had basically lost their hope and dignity as human beings.

They were like the walking dead, numbly waiting for death to come.

Without Hei Teng’s hypnotizing song, these people would eventually have to fight to death. The winners would chew on the losers’ corpses and continue to live.

When he thought of this, Mo Yun could not help but to leave them a portion of the food and water in her dimensional pocket.

As an eighth-rank space-type awakener, Mo Yun’s personal space was extremely large. Other than the experimental equipment Hao Meng needed for her research, she also brought a lot of food.

The food she left behind was enough for hundreds of people to consume for two or three days.

She felt that if the director was in her tender mode, she would definitely do the same.

In Mo Yun’s view, this casual act of help was only for her own peace of mind, and had nothing to do with morality or benevolence.

Would these people fight over food? What would happen if these people ran out of food in two or three days? That was not a problem that Mo Yun could consider.

Hao Meng noticed Mo Yun’s actions, but she did not stop her.

“The Bei Shi Nation has tens of millions of people, and at the moment, there are at least hundreds of thousands of people living underground. If you want, you can help many people with your ability.”

“But you could only help them for a while.”

“As an individual, humans were very fragile. However, as a civilization, they were very tenacious. After all, they are the top species that ruled the entire planet.”

“These humans who live underground will eventually adapt to everything, survive and multiply in the underground world, and develop an alternative civilization.”

“What?” Mo Yun was confused. “There’s nothing in the underground parking lot. How are they going to survive?”

“These people are lying in the garage and doing nothing. They can only wait for death, but there will always be people who will rise up and lift the tools to dig underground. There will always be a small number of lucky people who will discover surprises from the underground world.”

“There are also some people who don’t have to dig. When they were avoiding the insect plague, they hid near the underground river and survived by the river.”

“These people would slowly discover the various characteristics of the insects, and using these characteristics, they would occasionally be able to go to the surface to get some air and obtain some resources.”

“After a long period of development, these people might gradually evolve into a new species that did not need sunlight, or they might even degenerate and return to the ocean.”

“No one knows where they will eventually go. These are all my guesses. The development of civilization is always full of accidents.”

Hao Meng ended the conversation. She searched through a few underground spaces and finally found an empty underground shopping mall.

The shopping mall was not large, but it had good ventilation and was suitable for an experimental base.

In smart mode, Hao Meng’s work efficiency was amazing. It only took her two hours to install all the equipment.

After starting the generator, the underground experimental base was brightly lit, and the sound of the machine running was buzzing.

The most advanced human technological civilization had once again appeared in the Bei Shi Nation, which was ravaged by the insect plague.

Seeing that Hao Meng was about to capture the insect and dive into research, Mo Yun quickly said.

“Director, let’s eat first. We’ll have plenty of time to do experiments after dinner.”

Mo Yun took out some instant noodles and sausages, boiled some water, and prepared an instant noodles lunch.

Mo Yun had originally hated eating instant noodles, but after seeing the countless starving people today, the instant noodles seemed to have become tasty.

In this disastrous land, it was the greatest happiness to be able to eat hot instant noodles with sausages.

Mo Yun picked up a piece of sausage with her fork and put it in her mouth, speaking as she ate.

“Director, you brought a lot of equipment. If you’re just studying the changes after the insects came to our world, you don’t need so much equipment.”

In the smart mode, Hao Meng’s eating was extremely precise. She chewed the food rhythmically, and the magnitude and number of times she chewed each mouthful was the same.

Hao Meng said after swallowing the food in her mouth, “As I mentioned before, the insect world has its own civilization. For a civilized race, starting a war is no longer the instinct of a beast to hunt, but a clear strategic purpose.”

“I’ve been to the insect world, it’s a world more prosperous and rich than Saturn. With the situation of the insect world, it shouldn’t be interested in the relatively barren Saturn.”

“The gold-eating ants had devoured the entire Bei Shi Nation. It may appear as if they had obtained some resources for the insect world, but for an entire world, this bit of resources might not even be comparable to the deaths of those invading insects.”

“I’m here to find a way to communicate with the insects, to decipher their language, and to figure out the purpose of the insect world invading our world.”

“There are many restrictions within the world boundary, and it’s too dangerous to go inside the insect world. The current Bei Shi Nation has many types of insects and a large quantity of them, which is just right for my research.”

Mo Yun’s face turned bitter. According to Hao Meng, they would probably stay in the Bei Shi Nation for a long time.

The instant noodles didn’t smell good again!

She wanted to go shopping freely, to bathe in the sun and laugh as she pleased, and to ask her friends out to eat spicy hotpot.

For a period of time in the future, all these things would be gone.

There would only be the sound of machines, the boring underground laboratory, and disgusting insects.

Mo Yun looked at Hao Meng’s expressionless face. She couldn’t understand why the director would go to the sealed underground world and give up her superior life for such meaningless research.

She didn’t understand, but she supported it 100%.

Hao Meng finished her instant noodles and was just about to start her experiment when her phone rang. It was Wu Yingxiong.

“What is it?”

The cold tone made Wu Yingxiong swallow back all his greetings, and he tried to be as concise as possible.

“Director, there’s a situation at the new world boundary of the MieIn Federation.”

“According to the information given by the parliament members we bribed, the MieIn Federation has accelerated the exploration of the new world boundary, stimulated by the destruction of the Bei Shi Nation.”

“They gathered several suicide squads, and after sacrificing hundreds of people, a portion of them finally passed through the world boundary and saw the world that the boundary was connected to.”

“Among these people, three of them successfully crossed the border again and returned to the MieIn Federation.”

“According to their description, behind the new world boundary was not the insect world, but a new world where humans lived!”

“The language system of that world was similar to that of Latin, so the three of them managed to figure out some information by guessing.”

“It was said that the new world was a beautiful and rich world. In addition to humans, there were also races from Western stories, such as elves, dwarves, beastmen, gnomes, and even dragons and gods!”

“This was a great new discovery that surpassed the discovery made by Columbus!”

“Now, the upper echelons of the MieIn Federation are all ecstatic. They are chanting federation’s slogan and excitedly waiting for the new world boundary to be fully formed.”

The more Wu Yingxiong spoke, the more excited he became, and the faster he spoke.

“As long as the world boundary enters its mature period and the space storm subsides, the MieIn Federation will send a diplomatic mission to contact the humans of the new world.”

“They believed that the humans in the new world shared the same culture and bloodline as them. Whether it was their language or race, they were extremely similar, and they could try to establish diplomatic relations.”

“According to the description of the three people who have been to the new world, the humans of the new world did not reject them at all. Their culture is very open and inclusive, and the probability of the MieIn Federation establishing diplomatic relations with the humans of the new world is very high!”

“Inspector, are we still going to stay in Yunmeng Kingdom? The MieIn Federation was now the world’s most powerful country. In the future, with the help of the new world, they would only become stronger.”

“We still have some arrangements in the MieIn Federation. It’s still not too late to shift the focus of our work from Yunmeng Kingdom to the MieIn Federation!”

Hao Meng’s round face revealed a thoughtful expression.

After a short while, she replied coldly, “Wu Yingxiong, I’ll say this for the last time. Don’t mention domestic or foreign matters again.”

“If there’s a next time, you’ll die.”

On the other side of the phone, Wu Yingxiong felt a chill.

Thinking of the director’s bloody past, he shivered and said embarrassedly, “There won’t be a next time. I’ll listen to you, director.”

Hao Meng hung up the phone, grabbed a gold-eating ant, and began to dissect it.

The formation of the new world boundary would take at most half a year and at least three months. She just needed to keep an eye on this and didn’t need to spend too much energy on it.

Even if the boundary was formed, it was hard to say if things would go as the MieIn Federation wished.

Every world and civilization had its own rules and characteristics.

If the MieIn Federation wanted to develop a new world, it would be easier said than done if they did not go through a war.
