"I haven't told them yet because I'm worried that they might have some thoughts of going out at this unsettled time."

Ji Chaoyang walked to the window and looked at the other survivors who were very peaceful and contented not far away.

These survivors no longer want to go out at all.

"But now, I think it's time to tell them." Ji Chaoyang turned around and said, "I think someone needs to be stationed outside the World Tree. We people inside have no way to know the situation outside at all times."

Xu Xin nodded slightly.

Although the scene around the World Tree can be observed in the control room in the underground space of the World Tree,... it can only be done there. If you want to observe the surroundings, you must go down first.

For example, right now, everyone has no way of knowing what's going on outside.

Unless you go down to the underground space, or go out directly.

"Actually, there is another way." Xu Xin put forward his own suggestion, "Just use the console in the underground space as a monitoring room and let people work there in shifts 24 hours a day."

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Ying aside: "Is this okay?"

Xu Ying nodded: "Of course, we have done this before. If it is this world tree, it will be easier. After all, the flow of time in the outside world is so slow. If there is something, unless you are blind, you will not be able to discover it.

of."

"I have also asked Xu Ying about this." Ji Chaoyang smiled slightly, "Of course we have to do this. It is necessary to monitor the movements around the World Tree, but I think it is also necessary for someone to live outside.

Moreover, this can also solve the problem I just raised."

"You mean...let people who want to live outside live outside." Xu Xin thought for a moment.

"Well, that's what it means." Ji Chaoyang looked out the window again, "We haven't told them the situation yet, but we will recruit more survivors in the future. By then, they will definitely know about it."

"It's probably still early. If Xu Ying doesn't take action, it will take several days at the earliest for those people to come over. I'm afraid a year has passed internally." Zhao Xiaochuan leaned on the back of the sofa, "

Even if Sister Xu Ying takes action, it won't work today. The situation in the underground world has not been resolved yet. It will take one day, but it will also take a hundred days of internal time."

As he said that, Ge You lay down and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I want to clear my mind..."

"You've been idle for more than half a month, that's enough!" Qin Yunlong pulled him up angrily.

"What's enough? I want to take a two-month long vacation!"

Zhao Xiaochuan shouted.

"What, I'm going to be bored to death..." Zeng Tao, who was holding her chin on the side, said feebly.

Zhao Xiaochuan sat up straight: "Just kidding, just kidding, but it really doesn't matter, no matter inside or outside, don't you live for so long? It's so safe inside, if anyone still wants to make trouble, then...

It’s really heartless.”

Everyone else also nodded.

Wen Guixin curled her lips and said: "If anyone is dissatisfied, let them get out. They have a lot to do!"

Ji Chaoyang shook his head helplessly: "You can't think about this from your own standpoint. We will eventually have to absorb a large number of humans in the future. Some problems and planning should be figured out in advance and done well.

, otherwise if you want to change it in the future, you will be in trouble with the blue level."

Xu Xin understood somewhat, touched his chin and said: "You mean that when outsiders enter, it will affect the mentality of other people."

"Yes. If there are only people like us, then it may not matter to them. But if there are outsiders coming in, they only need to make a little comparison..." Ji Chaoyang paused, "If there are any acquaintances from the regional channel.

…”

...That does make people a little uncomfortable. Does this count as one year older than one's acquaintances?

"Moreover, the most important point is that they still don't know the truth of this world." Ji Chaoyang said seriously, "For them, this is just another world, and their relatives and friends are still waiting for them.

When they go back, even if they can't go back, they will still have one thought. The flow of time a hundred times faster, in their hearts, is equivalent to aging relative to their relatives and friends a hundred times faster."

Ji Chaoyang looked at everyone.

"This is what I want to tell you this time. It's time for us... to tell them the truth."

Everyone was silent for a moment.

During the half month that Xu Xin was away, they also discussed whether to tell these people the truth about the world.

But in the end it came to nothing.

As Ji Chaoyang said just now, even if these people know that there is a high probability that they will not be able to go back, they will still miss their relatives and friends.

If you tell them this, it will directly cut off their thoughts, which will indeed be more painful, and some may even dare not believe this fact.

But if you don't tell them, if the problem of time flow is exposed, it will cause chaos.

"Ah... In this case, you really should tell them." Xu Ying raised her hand and said, "When I bring the people from the underground world up, this kind of thing cannot be hidden at all."

Ji Chaoyang nodded: "That's why I came up with this idea. Instead of letting them find out on their own and blame us for hiding it from them, it's better to tell them all these things directly, once and for all."

After some discussion, everyone reached a consensus.

Indeed, there is no point in hiding it any longer.

It's time for them to know the cruel truth of this world.

"One more thing." Xu Xin came up with an idea: "Not just telling them, I think we should tell all the survivors we can contact about these situations."

If the world channel could still be used, he would even want to tell survivors around the world about this.

But now, they can only contact the remaining survivors in Area 188 and Area 1.

However, it is enough. After all, they can only bring back the survivors from these two areas at present.

"Ah... I suddenly understood why you wanted to let people go outside." Wen Guixin raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Chaoyang, "In the World Tree, it is impossible to communicate with people outside."

"Well, that's one of the reasons." Ji Chaoyang nodded.

"However, if we live outside...do we need some of us outside?" Li Wenxi asked, "We are the only ones who can enter and leave the World Tree freely, right?"

The explorers have discussed it before. At least for now, except for the three Lou Feier who have not returned yet, they will not give anyone else access to the World Tree.

At least you have to be very, very strict before you wake up.

After all, the more people there are, the more likely things will go wrong.

The alien invaders' agents have eroded the human base in the underground world, and they cannot be allowed to harm this place again.

Moreover, the human base in the underground world can still rely on Xu Xin's ability to detect and refine operations, but if something goes wrong here, no one will be able to read their voices.

If such a person were to gain the ability to enter and exit the World Tree at will, there would be big trouble.

Therefore, the only people who can freely enter and leave the World Tree at this stage are these people.

"Actually, there's no need to worry about this. We can take turns taking care of it." Ji Chaoyang said with a smile, "Don't forget the hundredfold time difference. My idea is that there are two people outside to observe the situation at all times, contact people in other areas, and change at any time when you are tired.

people."

That's not wrong.

If the internal time is rotated once a day, the people outside will only stay for fifteen minutes.

If the internal time is rotated every three days, it has not even been an hour outside.

Time... is still ridiculously abundant.

It's outrageous.

"Then it's decided."

After discussion, everyone finally came to a conclusion.

Tell everyone about this.

Xu Xin was not in a hurry to leave.

This matter was completed in just tens of minutes, and it only took tens of seconds in the outside world.

After they gathered everyone together, they then told everyone the truth about the world.

"That's it, everyone." Xu Xin looked at the people present and said.

The survivors present were all in a state of shock at this time, and more than two hundred people were silent.

"No...it's impossible!"

A voice muttering to himself broke the silence.

Suddenly the crowd became excited.

"Ah? Ah?!"

"Earth in a thousand years? Huh?!!"

"Aliens are invading the earth? Hold the grass!"

"This...you made it up, isn't it too magical? How could such a thing happen?"

"I knew it! I knew it! Hahaha! The types of creatures in this world are completely the creatures of the earth! This is completely inconsistent with my illusion of a different world. I didn't expect it to be the earth! I really guessed it!

"

"Ah, I also have thoughts about this. I originally thought it was a parallel world to the Earth, but it turned out to be...the Earth a thousand years ago!?"

"Oh no, have the alien invaders completely taken over the earth?"
