Chapter 21: This is the end of humanity! [Data requested!]

The cramped sewer, the black filth on the pipes, and the flocculent matter hanging from above allowed the audience to experience sewer life in the most intuitive way.

Especially the numerous stains that were close to black and coffee-colored, which gave the screen a "scent."

Immediately, the coffee business outside the screen suffered a severe impact.

On the Xianzhou "Luo Fu," some Vidyadhara and Foxians immediately left the coffee shop.

They went to a vending machine to buy a bottle of soda-fermented bean juice to wash their stomachs.

The coffee shop owner on Jarilo-VI looked at the departing customers and was also unable to cry; what an unprovoked disaster this was.

Fortunately, such a scene did not last long; the two stepped on the frozen sewage and arrived at the secret base.

"Uncle, right here."

As the boy called out a few names, several children popped out.

They had been hiding in the dried-up sewer before.

There were boys and girls, their faces very clean and rosy, not looking like they had suffered from the cold at all.

They were wearing beautiful clothes, looking just like dolls in a shop window.

Among them, one child looked a bit familiar; he should have been seen before.

The oldest was the boy who had brought Maksim here.

"This uncle said he could take us away."

"Once we leave here, we'll have food!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the children immediately surrounded Maksim.

The children hugged him very tightly, as if they were a bit unwilling to leave him.

"Really, Uncle? Can we finally leave here?"

"Uncle, where are we going later? Are there still people there?"

"Yeah, yeah, Uncle, the place we're going, are there people like you there?"

This scene, full of love and hope, took on a sacred sense of redemption in the eyes of the audience.

"The old civilization was destroyed by disaster, and the children representing hope and rebirth will go to another world to pioneer the future."

"So cute, I want a child too."

"Single dog, wake up; before that, you need to have a girlfriend."

"I say, is there a possibility that not only humans are sending bullet comments here, but also parthenogenic species."

And the sunny, cheerful girl, March 7th, also fully exerted her "silly roe deer" attribute, forgetting the pain once the wound healed, and continued to stubbornly watch the livestream.

"Children are very cute, but I also picked up a very cute child here."

"Mm, if only you could be a little smaller."

Saying this, she cast her gaze on "Stelle."

"Stelle" tilted her head to the right, her gaze bypassing her right shoulder, and let out a "pfft" laugh.

"Hey, what are you laughing at?"

"Stelle" covered her mouth, her eyes drifting elsewhere, her eyebrows smiling.

Then she looked at March 7th, opened her watery big eyes, and called out in a cutesy voice:

"March 7th~ A~unt~ie~ hello~"

March 7th covered her forehead:

"Sigh..."

"Now there's another Bai Xuan at home."

It's just that.

The audience rarely noticed.

This was a sewer at minus dozens of degrees, and there was no campfire here.

Even adults could not live in this environment for long.

Let alone children wearing flashy but impractical outer garments.

"Clever children, indeed."

In the footage, after Maksim coaxed the children away, he returned to the surface alone.

He returned home, sat in front of his parents' memorial portrait, lit a cigarette, and smoked it to himself.

In a corner he couldn't see, red "worms" as thin as hair were squirming silently, following the cracks in the tiles and the grain of the wooden boards.

Then, they opened pairs of amorphous eyes.

Maksim pressed his finger on the communicator behind his ear.

Long press, on; short press, off.

Distinguishing length by call time.

Long-short-long-short-short...

After finishing, Maksim flicked the cigarette ash, letting some fall into the tile cracks, scalding the flesh within until it twitched violently.

"Let's put our cards on the table."

A hoarse voice came from beside him.

"It seems our disguise is still too low-level."

When he turned his head, he saw a torrent of flesh and blood carrying a young skeleton, crushing the glass and pouring into the room.

Before long, it had reorganized into the body of a young woman; even the eyeballs and the hair on the body surface could be simulated.

It was too perfect; every inch of the body was like the embodiment of the concept of "beauty."

Even March 7th blushed slightly the moment she saw it.

Pom-Pom also hurriedly covered Bai Xuan's eyes with its ears:

"You're still young; this isn't suitable for you to see."

The audience stopped talking.

Instead, the anthropomorphic monster asked in a gentle female voice:

"How is it? Do you like this body? We can give her an independent consciousness, make her think she is human, and be forever loyal to you."

"You can manipulate this body freely without worrying about it aging or being damaged."

"If you are not satisfied with the appearance of this body, we can modify it according to your needs."

"If you need, we can also add organs for reproduction, allowing you to have your own children." ===== CHAPTER 23 =====
