The 'hunting' place is not far from the place of residence, but the time spent on the journey is not short. The root cause is that the roads are not smooth, countless cars are abandoned on the road, and there are huge holes left behind after the monsters pass by. Footprints have become obstacles.
The two industrial robots with the EDF logo pattern spray-painted on their surfaces were all walking at the front of the convoy, throwing the blocked cars into the monster's footprints, opening up a barely passable road, and both were equipped with high-power ground robots. Sound perimeter alarm detector for monitoring strong shock waves.
The vibrations caused by the tens of thousands of tons of monsters walking around on the ground can be felt from a long distance away. With instruments, it can be detected at farther distances.
Therefore, using shock waves to determine the distance of a monster is already a well-known thing in this world. Whenever you go out, you must carry it, otherwise it is no different from seeking death. After all, this is a monster that is tens of meters tall and tens of thousands of tons. Whenever it is discovered , the possibility of escape is too low.
Avoid the pits and throw away the cars.
This small convoy finally arrived at a large supermarket with broken doors and windows. This was not surprising. None of the shops along the way were intact. All the doors and windows were open, and products were scattered on the ground outside and inside the store. It clearly informs those who come after us that before the city became a no-man’s land, it experienced the chaos of the collapse of order.
None of this is like the movies.
Chiba Makoto said silently in his heart, jumped off the stopped pickup truck, and looked around. The two mechas had already moved some distance away from each other, and they were touching the ground to more accurately detect the vibrations when the monsters moved. Wave to determine the distance of the monster from here.
Except for the driver of the pickup who stayed outside to turn the vehicle around, everyone else got out of the car and ran into the large supermarket in a hurry to search and move all the supplies inside.
Yes, all supplies.
The 'captain's order' that Chiba Cheng heard was this, he wanted everything, and he knew why when he ran in, because at a glance, the shelves in this large supermarket were mostly empty, just like in the movie where the shelves were full. It's so full that you can pick at will, and the floor is so clean and bright that you can see people's shadows. It's completely different.
Just because - this is the end of the world!
Chiba Cheng grabbed a shopping cart that had fallen on the ground and ran forward with large strides. He threw everything on the shelves and on the ground into it. He asked for whatever he wanted. He was not picky and had no room to be picky, because this supermarket had absolutely no room for pickiness. This is not the first time I have been purchased for zero yuan.
The first wave of people naturally picked at will and dropped all the items on the floor when they left; the second wave and the third wave... made purchases for zero yuan again and again, and items such as food, drinking water, etc. were the first to be swept away, even if they were dropped on Things on the ground will also be picked up by people, and what will be taken away are clothes, toilet paper and other daily necessities, and then the less needed items.
To this day, we just take what we have.
From this supermarket that was almost evacuated, Chiba Makoto also got an important message, that is, the survivors in this city should be more than just the one or two hundred people in the shelter in charge of the Earth Defense Force. If you want to recruit people and move all the supermarkets and shops near your place of residence, it will take seven or eight years. It is impossible to do it.
But judging from what I saw and heard along the way, it is estimated that the end of this world will last only one or two years, so there should be other survivors in this city, and if it expands to the earth, there should be many survivors. It’s also very different from the movie.
The movie will be artistically processed and only have a grandeur, but reality will not only have this.
They also live in the dark underground, they also come out in fear to search for supplies, and they also live a life without any hope, but not all people can always maintain their humanity and morality when order collapses.
Just as I was thinking about it, a bold female voice came from my right: "Damn it, why is there nothing?"
Chiba Cheng couldn't help but stop and turned to look around. He saw between two rows of empty shelves. The short-haired girl who called him looked at the empty shelves with a confused look on her face. The shopping cart in her hand was not even one-third full. , and the food and drinking water that people in the shelter most need are missing.
They had been planning for a long time before taking the risk to come to this big supermarket, hoping to get more food and water back home so that they could sustain themselves for a while. But obviously they were not the only ones in this city to think so, and there were people who had done this before them. The large supermarket was moved cleanly, leaving no bottle of drinking water or a can for them.
"Misato, keep your voice down," Risa, who had the character of a little bunny, came over and comforted her softly: "Take whatever you have and go back as soon as possible. The base's reserves can last for a while."
Misato, who had a very boyish personality, was still angry and kept mumbling in a low voice. Although she couldn't hear clearly, she could guess that she was venting her dissatisfaction with those who had vacated the place a few steps ahead of them. .
Risa was about to leave when she glanced at Chiba Makoto at the other end of the shelf and asked softly: "Your injury is not completely healed yet. Be careful and don't go too deep inside. In case..."
Before he finished speaking, the horrified voice of deputy captain Zuo He came from the headset: "No, there are monsters, everyone is hiding."
The people in the supermarket who were running around looking for items were all stunned. Then their expressions changed drastically. They followed the emergency plan engraved in their minds and hid behind the shelves, shrinking as much as possible. He even covered his mouth, fearing that he would make a sound and attract the monster.
All the young adults who entered the supermarket hid, and the supermarket returned to silence, but the voice in the headset continued to sound:
The captain shouted: "Zuohe, be careful to hide, I will lure the monster away."
"No, captain, it was you last time. It's my turn this time." Vice-captain Zuohe flatly refused, but before she could finish her words, she saw an orange-painted robot activate the jet mode and fly up. High in the sky, the speaker welded to the shell also played music, as high-pitched as possible, for fear that the monsters would not be able to see it.
Listening to the sound on the communication channel, Misato clenched her fists angrily and growled: "How did the monster come here?"
The detector should be able to detect the monster from a long distance, so that it has enough time to hide. But it is so urgent now, which means that the monster is close to you, but this is simply impossible.
"I was careless," Zuohe said with great self-reproach. "I didn't notice the movement of the lake. The monster came ashore from the water."
"Sister!" Risa bit her lip tightly, but did not dare to make any sound, for fear that it would affect her sister's performance, and then...
What's so scary about it, Captain Ozaki's exclamation suddenly came from the communicator: "What is that? A giant... giant?"
