Gong Yun didn't care too much about how the Country of Hope planned the strike. He believed that the Country of Hope could handle it, and he just had to wait for the results.
Now all he and Su Meng have to do is reach the Black Sea human base safely and solve the problems existing in the Black Sea base as soon as possible.
Perhaps because they had just killed a snake king, the two of them had a rare night without encountering any harassment. As soon as dawn broke, the two of them had something to eat and hurried on the road.
Because according to time calculation, the Kingdom of Hope will attack a Lockmo civilization base outside the Black Sea human base in seven days. This means that if the attack is successful, the mutant beasts around the Black Sea base will be the same as they were in the Kingdom of Hope, and all mutant beasts will enter a state of no intelligence.
By that time, the mutated beasts in this area will be completely out of control, and it is unclear whether they will enter a period of chaos or act independently. If a large-scale beast tide occurs due to loss of control, it is still unclear whether the Black Sea Base can withstand it based on its current capabilities. He must reach the Black Sea Base and control the situation before the Kingdom of Hope launches an attack.
This time is indeed a bit tight for him. The original plan took him a month to arrive at the Black Sea base. Now the time has been compressed to a week, and the time has been cut three to four times. Even if he cannot arrive on time, he still has to Just try to get as close to the Black Sea base as possible.
As a result, Su Meng once again experienced the feeling of extreme speed in the world. In his sight, he could only see the colorful mountain forest spots rapidly retreating backwards.
Gong Yun also increased his speed to the extreme, covering a distance of nearly two thousand miles in one day. If it weren't for the fact that Su Meng had to rest and replenish food, he would have even planned to travel overnight.
The distance covered on this day was almost the same as the total of the previous few days, but luckily the two of them found a very good place to spend the night, and they found a cave halfway up a mountain.
This cave is still several thousand meters away from the summit, and several hundred meters away from the valley bottom. The entire cave suddenly appears on the broken arm of a smooth and steep cliff, and the mutant beast below cannot climb up no matter what.
As soon as the two people landed, they conducted a safety check on the cave with flashlights. As a result, the two people unexpectedly discovered that someone had once lived in this cave, and this cave did not seem to be natural, but rather looked like it was dug artificially.
The entrance to the cave is very small, but the space inside is surprisingly large. There are many artificially dug sub-caves on the cliffs that look like rooms. There are also tables, chairs and benches tied up with wood, but they are all very decayed. .
Based on this information, the two men determined that this cave should have been a human refuge hundreds of years ago. But later this group should have become completely extinct.
In a larger sub-hole, the two men also found several severely corroded bullet casings and a corroded iron ball. After inspection, this should be a scrapped grenade.
Although there are obvious traces of human activities in this cave, no human skeleton has been found. There are only two stone piles in the center of the cave, and there are two stone tablets in front of the stone piles. They should be two tombs.
The text on the stone tablet is quite blurry, but the names of two people can be vaguely distinguished.
The two people checked it and found no signs of danger, so they decided to spend the night here. They rummaged through it and collected some decayed wooden furniture to make a fire.
The weather was merciful, and it started raining heavily outside that night. The strong wind blew sand and rocks, making it look like the end of the world.
This made the two of them very happy. It would have been miserable if they had chosen to spend the night in the open air like before.
After Su Meng finished eating, she got into her sleeping bag and fell asleep peacefully next to the fire. She could finally see that strange and great changes had indeed taken place on the earth. It was absolutely impossible for a creature like Gong Yun to be born in a normal environment. of. Such a life form, not to mention that he is still supporting mankind, even if he is alone, he will definitely become the overlord of this planet in the near future. With him, there is no need to consider safety issues at all.
So Su Meng slept peacefully, her face full of relaxation and warmth under the light of the fire.
Gong Yun was leaning on one of the stone tombs and quietly flipping through the messages on the projection screen. The sound of strong wind and rain breaking the cliffs could occasionally be heard from outside the cave, and lightning flashes came from time to time from the entrance of the cave.
The bonfire in the cave occasionally made a crackling sound, and the burning firewood occasionally exploded for unknown reasons, causing sparks to fly around.
What a blessing it is to be a woman. Gong Yun looked at Su Meng in sleeping mode and cursed secretly.
According to calculations based on the map, their current location is still 8,000 miles away from the Black Sea base. At today's speed, they can get there in only four days. However, he does feel that this way of traveling is very hard, especially when he has to Protecting a fragile woman while traveling at high speed only increased his burden.
However, this distance of eight thousand miles is not the distance to the main city of the Black Sea Base, but only the edge of the Black Sea Base.
The Black Sea base is built on the mainland, but it is also surrounded by the sea on three sides, with only one direction facing the mainland. In that chaotic era, it was impossible to establish a human base to protect a large group of people from surviving without relying on geographical environment.
The terrain of the entire Black Sea base resembles a gourd. There is a vine at the mouth of the gourd that connects to the mainland. The Black Sea base is formed by building a high wall on this gourd vine that connects to the mainland.
For hundreds of years, this high wall has tightly protected the humans inside, forming two completely different worlds inside and outside.
In the first few hundred years, the people of the Black Sea Base, like Hope Island, firmly guarded this lifeline. Just over two hundred years ago, a coup occurred in the Black Sea Base. From that time on, this Black Sea Base The process of extinction began, and the population began to decrease sharply.
According to the data, the period when the Black Sea Base had the largest population was no less than that of the other four major bases. Since this coup, the people of the Black Sea Base seemed to have begun to lose heart, and this phenomenon was out of control until now. Only a mere 200,000 people were left, which was an important basis for Qin Yao to conclude that there was something wrong with their management.
However, there is no record of the cause of the coup in the other four major bases. This is something that is very inconsistent with the law of development.
Theoretically, since the new regime can succeed in a coup, it should be in the interests of the majority of people, otherwise it would not be able to succeed. In fact, it is that since the new regime replaced the old regime, it should have achieved better development. However, it has embarked on the completely opposite path. Not only did it not develop, but it also declined rapidly.
