Novel Bin Chapter 423 [Bonus ]A Rude Bunch!
Alive? Yeah. The survivors were indeed alive. But they weren\'t the only ones.
"pardon my manners. But I have to oblige you all to stop your simmering. Tis\' it not tiring? You are boring my ears." An annoyed voice rang out.
It was a young girl with luscious hair dressed up like those in the 1910s. Her attire was dull, using primarily black and blue vintage colors
It was as though she stepped out of the movie: Titanic.
Her skirt was ankle-level, her boots were particularly low, and her gloves were elbow-length. Her only exposed body parts were her head and neck.
Her accent, her proper command of the language, and her demeanor were amazing to see someone live in the flesh from the 1910s. But for Jenny\'s group, it spelled bad news for them.
That strange and evil-looking man said the doors into this place open once every 100 years. That\'s every century. She and her group were from the 21st century, and this girl and her people were from the 20th century. The oldest people here came from the 19th century.
[Note///

Every 100 years, people enter the space. Sometimes it\'s 80 people, and other times, it\'s a small group like Jenny\'s.
However, the fact that none of them could escape after all these decades meant they were also stuck here with zero to no chance of leaving, except through death from being killed by those Monsters.
No. No. No. No!
They were so young, with so much potential. Maybe these people from the 1900s and 1800s didn\'t know how advanced technology was. But they did.
Coming from an era with the Internet, booming technology, and all sorts of possibilities, how can they easily accept their current situation?
F***!
Maybe by the time the 21st century ends in 2100, flying vehicles and other amazing things will be around without them enjoying any bit of it.
Moreover, they already missed their families, loved ones, and fans.
On the fateful night after the sky changed strangely and the monsters appeared outside their window, they didn\'t notice it then, but the small shed they were initially in also changed.
It was now as big as a mansion, with these survivors living in it.
According to them, since coming here, their only food source has been on a strange hill that breeds human food.
The hill changes its location every 30 days, meaning it could appear anywhere in this hellish world.
Their job was to search, find and bring whatever good supplies they could before the existing food in the mansion ran out.
According to what these people said, the journey was always dangerous, with every trip resulting in people dying or getting fatally injured.
The leader was a man who had been here the longest. He was a person from the 19th Century.
His name was Bassano, an international student from an excellent engineering institution back in the day.
He was one of the underlying students who joined the most incredible research group ever.
That\'s right. One could say he was one of the founding fathers of electricity in today\'s world.
There were textbook portrait images of all the students around that time, and he was also there. So to see a legend such as himself here was truly extraordinary. He still looked the same, not aging for a day.
Jenny would have loved to shake his hands and have an interview. But now isn\'t the time for that.
As for Bassano, he arrived in this world alongside 122 others, mostly scientists, who were researching scientific matters on the hill. And just like that, they were sucked into this strange world.
The hill was indeed a cemetery. So some ladies who overstayed their cemetery visit initially wanted to return home but were talked into staying back with them and returning home together.
After all, during that time, there were no cell phones, and if they were in any danger, it would be far-fetched to think help would come right away.
There have always been cases of women getting raped or taken along these roads. So the women chose to stay and follow the men back whenever they were done with their scientific experiments.
They quickly trusted Bassano\'s group because scholars and scientists at the time were the most respectable professions.
Many thought to be a scientist meant one was so focused on reading, studying, and experimenting that they didn\'t have time to fill their minds with criminal thoughts.
To many in that period, criminals were jobless people.
Like so, Bassano and his group of 122 came from the Victorian era and also met people from the 1700s and 1600s.
In their words, they lost track of time, only realizing another 100 years had passed whenever new people came in.
For Bassano, his original group of 122 has now become 16. Meaning for the past 200~230 years, his people, alongside those originally here from the 1700s and 1600s, were all dead. And for those from the 1910s, they were originally 82 but were now 34.
Jenny, Chris, and the rest felt uncomfortable with this group of survivors.
Firstly, these people judged them too harshly, calling them indecent for their current attire. It was strange to say they have gone through hell in this space, yet they are still hung up over decency.
The women talked down on them, calling Jenny and the other girls harlots who wore overly tight fitted clothes (jeans) and had exposing tops that, in their opinion, showcased too much cleavage, hands, ankles, and so on.
They questioned how humanity had gone backward instead of forward. They treated them rudely because they adhered to the saying: Dress how you want to be addressed.
But honestly, was that the important matter at hand now?
(>¶~¶)
Jenny, Emily, and the other 21st-century girls felt they were going crazy after staying with these women who only had ancient thoughts in their heads.
Hmph!
One of the women flipped her hair arrogantly. "How irritating... Like she said, none of you will ever be getting out. Stop boring our ears with your silly whimpers!"
