crunch
The branch was broken by something. Jean looked over. Tang Rao yawned next to him. They had left the grassland for nearly a week. According to the map, they had arrived in the middle of Continent Y. At the current speed, they only needed a few seconds.
You can reach the beach in a day.
Along the way, the two of them were collecting various data, and now there is no detectable radiation in the air.
The two of them are now going to a nuclear power plant to see if they can find anything useful. If they are sure to find something useful, they can come over and take it back bit by bit in the future.
In particular, some core components are difficult to manufacture in their current situation. The location of this nuclear power plant is only more than ten kilometers away.
"What was that just now?"
Tang Rao asked, Jean shook his head, and Tang Rao began to walk towards a dry bush next to him. This place was a city, and this was a park. Looking at the scale and construction, it should have been very beautiful at the time.
Tang Rao touched the bushes and saw some shriveled animal carcasses and human bodies on the ground. She looked around and saw nothing, but she looked suspicious, as if she wanted to find out the origin of the voice just now.
source.
Gene was standing on a path in the park, smoking a cigarette. There were two large bags beside him, which contained tobacco, alcohol, some snacks, and several small testing equipment.
They still found some food along the way, but now it was meaningless to them whether to eat or not.
"Let's go, it's okay. The sun has disappeared for so many years, and no living things can survive in these places."
The temperature in the air now is 2 degrees. Because of the city, the temperature will be higher. Many places in the wild have frozen, and there is snow everywhere.
It is basically impossible for anyone to survive in such a harsh situation. At this moment, Tang Rao noticed some movement in some dead leaves. She jumped over instantly. After peeling away the dead leaves, Tang Rao looked a little strange.
She was holding a black object, and she couldn't help but want to take it, when suddenly the stone started to move.
Tang Rao exclaimed, and Jean immediately stood up. Soon the two of them saw this thing that looked like some kind of beetle, which was slowly squirming. Tang Rao had goosebumps, and Jean grabbed it with his bare hands.
"It's disgusting."
Tang Rao looked at the appearance of the creature, but he immediately took out the equipment. Soon Tang Rao was stunned, and so was Jean, because this thing was not a creature, but it could move, which made the two of them quite confused.
shock.
"Put it up first and study it slowly when you get back."
"Forget it, I'm really a bit fussy about these things."
Gene looked around and found a bag that could still be used. He put the things in it and hung them on the big bag. Gene held a lot of things, and Tang Rao climbed directly onto Gene's back.
Light blue particles emitted from the surface of Jean's body, and he was ejected instantly.
Soon he jumped to the roof of a building. Jean looked around. After Tang Rao determined the location, Jean carried her on his back and jumped up on the tall building.
"This is really fast."
Jean tried several times before, and the two of them fell because of the distance problem, but now Jean is much better, and Tang Rao also tried it, but he was not as fast as Jean.
Soon the two of them left the city and came to a road crowded with vehicles. Jean quickly shuttled on the roof of the car, accompanied by bursts of banging sounds. After a while, Jean and the others saw a nuclear power plant.
This latest nuclear power plant uses the most advanced technology of this era.
The nuclear power plant was indeed damaged. There was a beeping sound. Tang Rao took out the radiation detector and soon felt the very high amount of radiation in the air. After entering, the nuclear power plant was full of damage and there were a lot of corpses.
and some weapons.
It looked like a large-scale battle had taken place here, and most importantly, the nuclear power plant had been looted. The two of them walked all the way to the control room of the nuclear power plant, which had been turned into ruins.
"Looks like all the work was in vain."
"First go to the reactor below and have a look. Maybe you can find the components."
Jean said, and the two began to search for the entrance. Soon they discovered that an explosion had occurred in a place. The nuclear energy had been leaked long ago, and the impact was very wide. If they wanted to get in, they would have to dig through some landslides.
But no matter how strong they are, digging will still take a lot of time.
"What are you going to do?"
Tang Rao asked, and Jean scratched his head, but he still picked up the tools and used telekinesis to start moving some things. Tang Rao could only participate.
Five hours later, the two finally found the entrance. There was water inside, and the concentration of radiation was very high. As soon as they stepped into the water, they felt warm and their skin began to turn red.
The two could only continue walking along the wastewater in the pipes, and finally arrived at the core of the nuclear power plant, but everything in front of them was very chaotic. After searching around for a full circle, everything here was damaged because of the high-energy radiation.
for the sake of things.
"It's a busy schedule, and take a look at our bodies."
Tang Rao held up his hands that were full of red spots, and Gene smiled helplessly. Soon the two of them returned to the ground. After searching around again, they were sure that they couldn't find anything that could be used, so they had no choice but to leave.
.
They don't know how the war broke out in this place. After all, this place was relatively stable before the end of the world.
"Let's go, it's true, I finally came out and ended up like this."
Gene looked at Tang Rao with an unhappy look on his face, and then said.
"It will recover after a while."
Sure enough, after walking a few kilometers, their bodies were back to normal. Tang Rao grinned slightly, and the pain finally disappeared.
At this time, the weird thing that Jean had just obtained had no impact at all. Now it was more certain that it was not a living thing, but why it could move made the two of them a little confused.
It was just 3 o'clock in the afternoon, a time of day when the light was relatively sufficient, and many things could be seen clearly. After looking at the map for a while, the two decided to cross through a withered forest.
Jean jumped to a high place again. At this time, the two of them saw a place in the distance, a large black area, like a bird's nest, and something was moving.
"Go over and have a look."
Jean moved forward with Tang Rao on his back. After a while, the two of them were stunned. They looked at a large black tentacle in front of them, which was continuously wrapped layer by layer. There were also scarlet spots on the tentacles. These tentacles were slowly squirming.
, and judging from the cracks in the ground, these tentacles are rooted in the ground.
"What on earth is this?"
Tang Rao swallowed, and Jean didn't know it, but at this time Tang Rao tried to walk over, getting closer to the tentacles little by little. Suddenly, these tentacles suddenly covered a large area towards Tang Rao. Jean's eyes were quick and his hands were quick and he moved forward instantly.
Grabbing Tang Rao, these tentacles flew away.
With a frightening rustling sound, these tentacles flew directly towards the two of them, and blue particles appeared in Tang Rao's eyes.
Buzz
Accompanied by a violent sound, a cyan light lit up, and then the two of them found that the tentacles had retracted, and the tentacles that were extended were burning without fire. This situation left the two of them completely confused.
"What are these things?"
Gene asked, and Tang Rao immediately took out the equipment and planned to go over and continue trying. However, as soon as he got closer, the tentacles surged crazily. Tang Rao immediately used telekinesis, and cyan particles flew out, and these tentacles began to lose fire.
Burn it.
"Gene bring the bright light."
Tang Rao immediately realized something. Gene took out a flashlight for lighting from his backpack, and then Tang Rao turned it on directly. The moment the light was illuminated, the tentacles began to twist wildly, and a large area burned without fire.
.
Red sparks were in the air. Tang Rao continued to hold the lamp and shine it step by step. The black and red tentacles began to spread out in all directions. Soon Jean and Tang Rao saw that there was nothing in the center.
, it was all deserted, and there was still a big hole.
These tentacles all came up from the big hole, Tang Rao muttered.
"Maybe it's an alien creature."
Jean hummed, and then Tang Rao tried it. These things would attack as long as he held them in his hands. These thin tentacles seemed to have small mouths on them. As long as they touched them, they would pierce the skin and attack crazily, but
These tentacles are vulnerable to light.
"It seems that it is impossible to capture and study it, so we have to leave first."
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Tang Rao gave up because no matter what method he used, he could not catch this tentacle, because it could even swallow metal.
Although they know that the planet must have undergone changes, they currently do not have the conditions to study it, so they can only go to the center of the Pacific Ocean to see the situation for the time being.
In fact, they want to confirm some special substances on the fallen asteroids, which include substances that may extend human lifespan, and a new substance with something wrong in the structure of the asteroids.
The eight people discussed for a long time. If the new materials on the asteroid can be used in research, they may be able to realize a lot of technology. This is the purpose of their coming here.
After the two of them walked farther away, they looked back and saw that there was a deeper black in the darkness, and those tentacles were still wriggling.
"Do you think that thing is conscious?"
