Chapter 1524 - Your World

Chapter 1524: Your World

“Is this…your world?”

Sun Jiao looked out the window blankly and the word astonishment was written all of her face.

The blue sky and seagulls were intertwined into a picture scroll, giant coconuts grew on the coconut trees, and behind the golden beach was the endless ocean.

The waves were white and so were the clouds. There were no bloodthirsty mutants here, nor zombies that lurked around for the perfect opportunity. Everything here was full of life, without the slightest trace of the withered yellow. For Sun Jiao, who was born in a fallout shelter, everything here resembled heaven.

Living in such a world made people envious.

Sun Jiao murmured softly.

“Tell me, this is all of your world…”

“On the contrary, this is only a corner of the world. There is another world beyond the blue sky. Our colonies have expanded to Himalia and are moving to further places. All hidden dangers have been eliminated by us before they happened. This is a new era and the tragedy that happened in that world will not happen again here.”

As Jiang Chen said this, he smiled, walked to the door, and gently opened it.

“Come with me, I will take you to see my world.”

One meter of sunlight passed through the door, and the salty sea breeze blew right against her face. With the feeling of warmth that caressed her hair, her eyes were filled with hope and fascination as she walked towards the beach.

After she kicked away her shoes and her feet stepped onto the soft sand, she ran to the beach in excitement.

However, when one of her feet stepped into the water, she hesitated again and took a step back, looked back at Jiang Chen, and asked in a quiet voice

“Here… there are really no mutants, right?”

The nests of mud crabs were most likely to appear in shallow water. As a veteran lone traveler, it was her instinct to stay away from the sea.

Jiang Chen couldn’t stop himself and laughed when he saw how cautious Sun Jiao looked. While he chuckled, “I promise, there is no such thing. At most, you will run into sharks.”

The purpose of mentioning sharks was just to scare her. There were no sharks in the water near Coconut Island. Even if sharks approached this area, they were forced away by ultrasound on the submersible drones patrolling in the deep water.

“Then I can rest assured,” Sun Jiao patted her chest and a sincere smile appeared on her face, “If it’s just sharks, I’m not afraid.”

She was indeed a warrior from the apocalypse.

After he failed to imagine the scene where she tore apart a shark with her hands. He shook his head and stopped picturing it in his mind.

As he watched Sun Jiao giggle inside the waves, he suddenly remembered something and reminded her.

“By the way, if you want to play at the beach, you have to pay attention to one more thing.”

Sun Jiao stopped playing in the water, flipped her wet hair, then looked seriously at Jiang Chen while she waited for him to finish.

“There is no radioactive dust here, so the ultraviolet rays will be much stronger than the apocalypse,” Jiang Chen continued and smiled, “If you don’t want to get sunburned, you’d better put some sunscreen on your body. ”

Sun Jiao burst out laughing, rolled her eyes charmingly, and turned around.

“I want you to help me put it on.”

…

Probably this time yesterday, his guard was blindfolded throughout the entire process and cooperated with Lin Lin to complete the final experiment on the door. After a day of clinical analysis and questioning the participant, the conclusions reached finally made Jiang Chen and Lin Lin smile from the bottom of their heart.

“There is no feeling, the only uncomfortable thing is that the temperature suddenly increased by a bit, and the air suddenly became a little fresher,” the guard named Yang Guangrui had a regretful expression on his face.

Originally, he thought that he would perform some dangerous and glorious task on behalf of the General, but he did not expect the mission was just to enter and exit a luminous door while blindfolded. Then he took blood tests and laid down in the scanning cabin for a comprehensive examination. In the end, he was inexplicably awarded a battle medal and praised by the general.

“???”

In short, when he came out of the Lin Institute, the guard was full of questions and confusion.

Then, Jiang Chen couldn’t wait to tell the girls the good news, and now, the originally empty and deserted beach was filled with liveliness and chatters.

“WOAH~! THE OCEAN!”

Lin Lin, with a swimming ring wrapped around her, wore a swimsuit that did not look attractive yet and ran to the beach in excitement.

“Sister, slow down, we already agreed that we must maintain a proper image in this world,” Xiaorou, who wore a lavender swimsuit, walked forward gracefully with her arms folded in front of her chest, she followed her sister with a smile. “I’ve read it in the book. People in ancient times prefer the quiet and elegant type.”

“HUH? Is that true?”

Sun Jiao, who often appeared heroic, started to panic at this moment. She suddenly slowed down and decided not to chase after Lin Lin, and looked to Jiang Chen somewhat unconfidently.

Jiang Chen wanted to mock what kind of ancient novel Xiaorou read, but after he thought about the fact that the timelines were completely different, he gave up on the idea.

“Are you not going to swim?”

“That… it’s too difficult for Yao Yao.” Yao Yao smiled weakly, hugged her knees, and sat under the umbrella. “The iced watermelon juice is also delicious. Yao Yao will just sit here.”

Because they stayed at home all year-round, if Sun Jiao and the others did not get enough UV exposure, then Yao Yao was too pale to the point that people were concerned about her health. This level of sunlight had an “instant kill” effect on those who stayed at home all day, so it was better to adapt slowly.

“You will need to get more sunlight in the future,” Jiang Chen said with a smile while he rubbed Yao Yao’s fluffy hair.

“Hmm…I will try my best.” Yao Yao mumbled while she sucked on the watermelon juice.

Lilith next to her had her arms folded in front of her while she stood there without an expression and observed the situation. Of all the people here, she was the only one who is not afraid of the UV. But considering that the chip overheating could cause potential problems, she decided to stay under the umbrella.

Lilith asked a question abruptly.

“Can water make people excited?”

“It’s not water that makes people excited,” He smiled and watched Xiarou, who was tackled to the ground by her sister that managed to read her trick. Xiaorou started to giggle and begged for mercy as Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and explained, “It’s the sea.”

“Is there any difference between the two?”

Lilith tilted her head, which indicated that she could not understand the pun in Jiang Chen’s language.

“I thought you could understand.”

“Even for advanced artificial intelligence, I need to learn it before I can understand it,” Lilith said seriously, “So, I hope you can tell me.”

“What does water mean to you?” Jiang Chen asked back.

“It means trouble,” Lilith replied without thinking. “It would be inconvenient to get wet.”

“This is the difference between man and machine. The first element of human behavior is never efficiency or even profit.” Jiang Chen laughed, took off his shirt and exposed his muscles, and looked at Yao Yao, who blushed. Then he looked back at Lilith, “You’ll learn slowly, you still have a lot of time.”

After he left Lilith, who stood motionlessly and deep in thought, he walked towards the beach.
