Obviously, the storm tower standing at the entrance of the underground city was not used to prevent the occurrence of disaster weather. On the contrary, it further promoted the formation of storms, causing layers of sandstorms to set off around the entrance...
"No matter, I can just ask General Bai these questions when I go back..."
His thoughts froze for a moment, and 659 decisively gave up the idea of continuing to ponder.
He is not an idle person, there are more important things waiting for him to complete right now.
Although the incident at the storm tower made him a little confused, it was not something that needed to be solved urgently, so there was no problem in putting it aside.
After walking out of the dusty storm circle, 659's field of vision instantly broadened. Without the cover of dark clouds, the light of the red moon once again shined on the earth. Although the visibility was still not very high, at least there was no need to turn on the infrared rays in the monocle. It's in imaging mode.
The jagged coastline is located on the left side of 659, and on the right side is endless flat land. There are occasionally some abrupt rocks mixed in, but there is no sign of vegetation or animals.
Scanning the surrounding open environment, 659 suddenly understood the role of the storm tower.
Judging from the topography, the entrance to the underground city should have been located in a shallow sea. The natural barrier formed by the sea water can block the outside world from peeking at the entrance.
But now due to unknown reasons, the sea water has dried up, and the undefended entrance to the underground city has been exposed. In this unprotected situation, it is easy to be discovered.
The human race is already weak. If another hostile force discovers the entrance to the underground city, the fate of the residents in the city can be imagined.
The sand and dust kicked up by the reverse activation of the storm generating tower are precisely the last barrier to ensure the safety of the underground city.
Although it is unclear what the situation is like during the day, in the darkness, combined with the dust in the sky, it can prevent hostile forces from discovering the existence of the entrance to a certain extent.
"I don't know if this is the idea of the Clan or the work of General Bai. It does seem to be a good protective measure at the moment."
After figuring out the problem in his mind, 659 speeded up the journey a bit. Although the insulation effect of the Night Demon protective suit was great, it was limited by the energy supply. In this cold night, 659 could only stay for two days. Hundreds of hours.
What will happen next is unknown, so if we can save some time now, it will definitely be good for Zhang Heng-659 and not bad.
"Go east along the coastline until you see..."
After marching for nearly half an hour, 659 was talking about what General Bai had told him, and suddenly he caught a glimpse of something different.
The red moonlight combined with the deep dusk is like a wedding veil, covering the earth quietly.
A huge black shadow suddenly appeared in front of it, like a naturally formed rock, but looking from a distance, it seemed that there were something more in it that was not found in the rock.
659, who kept moving forward, looked up, and the words in his mouth stopped abruptly.
After a while, a word came from the mask.
"Giant skeleton..."
The ground mixed with sand and stones creaked under his feet. 659 took three steps and two steps at a time, trotting towards the huge black shadow in front of him.
As the distance continued to grow, the curtain of night gradually opened before his eyes. Under the red moon, a huge skeleton appeared on the sand.
The skeletons were piled messily on the ground. The highest position was about six meters above the ground. The body was surrounded by loose soil and gravel. It looked as if something had dragged it. Under the weight of the body, the bones were already soft. The ground was plowed into ravines.
The flesh and blood on it has long since disappeared, leaving only a pale and dry skeleton and a strangely shaped carapace, like a
It is a dilapidated building, with its broken walls telling stories of the past.
"This is what General Bai calls the landmark, the giant skeleton."
Slowly approaching the skeleton, 659 activated the recording function on the monocle, recording and analyzing the skeleton in front of him.
"Biological remains detected, comparing against database..."
The light green data flow passed through the lens, reflecting in 659's deep eyes.
"Adapted organisms have been searched and relevant data are being presented."
Two seconds later, the monocle, equivalent to a battlefield assistant, gave the search results.
"Biological serial number: 666"
"Biological code: Dragon-shaped mantis shrimp"
"Description: A predatory shrimp variant, which is essentially a pure virion organism, a carnivorous arthropod, mobile and slow. The mature dragon-shaped mantis shrimp can reach eight meters in length. Its main attack method is smashing."
"Warning: Mature dragon-shaped mantis shrimps often appear in shallow seas. They like to approach prey slowly and hammer it with the claw hooks on their chests."
"Note: Mature male mantis shrimps often spontaneously form groups after mating. The number of groups ranges from ten to more than a hundred."
"After forming a specific group, these male dragon-shaped mantis shrimps will begin to hammer and devour each other until only one dragon-shaped mantis shrimp is left in the group, and the remaining dragon-shaped mantis shrimp will quickly metamorphose and become a king. branch."
"The size of the king shrimp that has completed its metamorphosis will further increase. According to data, the longest king shrimp can reach 30 meters in length."
"The Point Guard Is Here"
After reading the feedback information on the lens, 659 took a breath.
According to his records, even the dragon-shaped mantis shrimp, which belongs to the royal branch, is only thirty meters long at most.
The current length of this skeleton, according to a rough estimate, is nearly fifty meters.
"Such a terrifying creature turned into a withered skeleton..."
Standing in front of the skeleton, 659 sighed lightly.
Creatures with a life energy level of gamma are usually solitary creatures with territorial awareness. They are large in size and have various characteristics. As long as they do not become their prey or avoid their territory , it will not be attacked.
The dragon-shaped mantis shrimp with the biological serial number 666 is a mutant creature assigned to the gamma level, but their ferocious characteristics do not fit the characteristics of the gamma level.
It may also be because of the characteristics of living in groups and fighting each other that the number of king branches in this mutated creature is huge.
After all, powerful beings will only be born in endless fights. This has been a law since ancient times and is also the only iron rule for the operation of the universe.
However, even if the dragon-shaped mantis shrimp becomes a branch of the royal family, with a body length of more than fifty meters, if it does not stand at the top, it will still inevitably end up as a pile of withered bones.
Sighing, 659, after confirming that there were no threats around him, walked around the skeletons in front of him and started walking towards the shore.
Before setting off, Bai Donggu once said that the appearance of giant skeletons marked that he had officially entered the eastern hunting area. Its periphery was filled with a large number of strange beasts. Although it was dangerous, it was also an excellent place for hunters to obtain resources.
As long as your luck is not too bad and you gather a few familiar hunter companions, you can always get a lot of prey in the periphery.
But Zhang Ning, the adoptive father of the little girl Zhang Jiayi, was injured and no one was willing to team up with him, so he entered the hunting area alone.
In fact, it’s normal to think about it. After all, in the process of hunting, no one can predict what powerful prey will appear in the next second. The devastation of the apocalypse has made the survivors more cold-blooded. Everyone keeps their heads in their belts. Who would want their companions to live on
A burden with physical injuries?
Only a fledgling first-level ability user would reluctantly agree to go with Zhang Ning in the hope that the other party would not be seriously injured.
"Listening to General Bai's description, Zhang Ning once mentioned to him the location where he often hunts in his spare time..."
The pace of progress slowed down, and the content of the conversation at that time was played on 659's monocle in time.
The bright NB area master control center is still in the picture. The simple solid wood round table is full of dishes, and foreign wines of different colors are placed randomly, which is incompatible with the current desolation.
Bai Donggu, who had just laid out the map, put one hand on the table and motioned for 659 to take a closer look.
"Let me first tell you about the markings on this map..."
General Bai seemed a little tired because of the use of his abilities.
"First of all, as a second-level physical enhancement system user, it should be impossible for Zhang Ning to enter the middle level of the eastern hunting area without the help of the brain enhancement system. The periphery is his best hunting range."
The left hand wearing a white glove clicked on the map and drew a small circle.
"This area was composed of several villages and towns before the end of the world, extending from northwest to southeast, covering an area of about 600 hectares, which translates to almost six square kilometers."
"After the outbreak of the apocalypse, densely populated cities gradually became the territory of zombies because they were occupied by general-level zombies;"
"And the inaccessible wilderness is the world of alien beasts. With long-term development, it has become the territory of the alien beast tribe;"
"Our human race is weak and can only survive between the territories of the undead and the alien beasts. This eastern hunting area is one of the few places that the undead and the alien beasts are not willing to occupy."
"The specific reason is not clear. It is estimated that there are no internal resources to satisfy them, so they are too lazy to fight for it. This is also the case. The eastern hunting area is filled with a large number of low-intelligent zombies and strange beasts. It is considered a wild land. "
Hearing this, 659's question came from the video.
"Since this place is a barbaric land, why don't the humans simply occupy this area? Although the infrastructure provided in villages and towns is not as good as that of cities, it is better than living down there like rats like now. live."
Upon hearing 659's question, Bai Donggu waved his hand, with a hint of bitterness on his face.
"659 You don't know something. Although this area is considered wild, there are a large number of undead and alien beasts surrounding it. It's okay if the human race doesn't show up. If they move in with great fanfare, they will definitely be attacked by the surrounding alien races. During the siege, the remaining sparks will probably be mercilessly stamped out.
"So that's the case. It's really hard to take over..."
659 nodded, indicating that he understood the twists and turns, and the video screen was transferred to the map again.
"The places that hunters in the underground city often visit are in these three places, the Bee Harbor, the Snake Nest, and the Blood Cave."
Clicking on the map three times with his index finger, Bai Donggu raised his head and looked at the World Splitter in front of him.
"These three places were prosperous villages and towns before the end of the world, but after the end of the world, they were occupied by various strange beasts. In order to facilitate the division, they were renamed."
"Bee Harbor, as the name suggests, is naturally an area occupied by bees and alien bees. Five types of mutant bees of the order Conifera are mainly distributed in it. It is the most dangerous hunting area."
"The Blood Cave was originally a reservoir built against a mountain. Mutated leeches overflowed in it, and it was later used as a breeding nest for blood-sucking mosquitoes. Although the environment is harsh, fortunately, the creatures in it are not very aggressive and are relatively safe. .”
"Judging from Zhang Ning's previous hunting, the hunting area he often goes to should be located between these two plots - the Snake Nest..."
