After one hour.
An Sheng collapsed at the entrance of the stairs, holding one hand on the ground and wiping sweat with the other, and shouted repeatedly: "I'm so exhausted. No, no, no, I'm hungry. I'm going to starve to death! If I don't have anything to eat, I will really die!"
He used his extremely strong body to climb the stairs for an hour, but finally couldn't bear it anymore.
There are vending machines in the corridor with food. But I can’t walk anymore, can you..."
This story looks more and more like "The Unexpected Space". Every scene in "Unexpected Space" features three characters, and one of them always dies unexpectedly.
For example, if someone is shot and bleeds, or if asthma attack medicine is thrown on the ground and accidentally crushed, etc., they are destined to die gradually in an accident.
The surprise in this scene is AXA? Because Anjia's superpower is to strengthen the physical body, but the price is that he needs to consume a huge amount of food to make up for the loss of his body.
If there is no timely food replenishment after a large amount of physical exertion, Anjia's superpower may die at any time due to physical failure.
"Walk."
Meng Fei waved to Xiao Han, and the two stood up together.
"You...where are you going?"
An Sheng, who couldn't get up, asked in surprise.
"Go to the second floor."
"What are you going for?"
"Go get something to eat."
"Guji." An Sheng swallowed his saliva and was about to speak when he was interrupted by Xiao Han.
"Don't worry, Mr. An, we will bring you food."
"Okay... hurry up."
"rest assured."
Meng Fei pressed the button on the elevator door.
"Isn't it a good time to take the elevator?"
Xiao Han hesitated a little. The firefighting training she had received told her that she should never take the elevator when escaping from a fire or earthquake.
Although it was not a fire or an earthquake at this time, she felt it was more dangerous than a fire or earthquake.
"Food is limited, so try to save energy."
The elevator door opened and Meng Fei walked in without hesitation. Xiao Han quickly followed. I don't know if it was because the problem was being resolved or something else, but the overhead light flickered a few times, reflecting Meng Fei's equally gloomy expression.
An hour passed without help, which made him uneasy.
Their trip was arranged by Li Mu. Everyone knows roughly when they will arrive at their accommodation. And he also keeps in touch with his wife at all times.
It was more than an hour late, and the brothers Li Mu sent to stay here with Ansheng in advance to support him should have noticed it long ago.
Even if they didn't notice that Ai Ting couldn't contact him, they would definitely go to question Lao Li in a hurry. So the rescue should have started for a while by this time.
But they didn't see any news here. Does it mean that the rescue did not start or that it started but did not go smoothly?
They quickly reached the second floor, where there was a red bookcase-shaped vending machine. There are cup noodles, snacks and mineral water inside.
"Oops, we don't have any coins."
Xiao Han read the explanation written on it for a long time. This coin-operated vending machine only accepts coins.
A faint light flashed in Meng Fei's eyes, and he activated the crack. Cups of noodles began to fall into the pickup column below.
The essence here is part of reality, and their abilities are brought in intact. Even without Meng Fei's crack, Xiao Han could easily dismantle the vending machine with his mind.
"That's it. I'm afraid it's not enough for Mr. An to eat alone."
Xiao Han looked at the four fallen cups of noodles with disappointment. Shenhuren's cup noodles are real "cups", not much bigger than a tea cup.
Although there are some miscellaneous snacks in the vending machine, they are all flashy. With Ansheng's amazing appetite, Meng Fei estimated that he wouldn't even be able to eat even the vending machine.
"We each have one share, and AXA has two shares."
Meng Fei immediately made arrangements.
There is a water dispenser thoughtfully placed next to the vending machine. So they can start instant noodles right here.
After a while, the two sat on the stairs and started sucking cup noodles. The noodles here are thick and the soup is sweet and sour, like spaghetti soaked in tomato sauce.
"If we don't take it to the police immediately,
Son? "
Xiao Han felt a little uneasy about his conscience while eating noodles.
"Don't worry, he won't die."
Before going downstairs, Meng Fei used his superpower to scan Ansheng's body and knew that the guy could survive for at least four hours even if his physical strength was exhausted.
If the food is brought directly up, Mr. An will sweep it away like a hungry tiger, which is not conducive to collective survival.
"Do you think they will come to rescue us?"
Xiao Han asked quietly.
"Yes, but it may take longer."
Meng Fei made a calm judgment.
He knew that Li Mu and the others would do everything possible to save him, and Ai Ting and Suzaku would do whatever it took. And they will definitely find a way. But it certainly won't go well.
Just like rescuing miners buried deep underground, people will never give up until it is absolutely impossible. But this requires overcoming sometimes unimaginable difficulties and is very time-consuming.
Survival depends entirely on how long they can hold on. His repairs can repair damage and disease, but are ineffective against incapacitation and death caused by starvation.
"Longer? How long? Do we have enough food?"
Xiao Han's shining eyes glanced weakly at the empty shelves.
Meng Fei smiled bitterly and said:
“The longest rescue seemed to take more than half a year.
"With AXA, the food on the shelves won't last a day even if you save on it. If you can find food by searching these empty rooms, it might last a week or two.
"If there is water, it is said that people can live for a month. They will just become skin and bones."
"I don't want it, it's better to die!"
After drinking all the soup, Xiao Han tore the cup open and licked everything inside. For the first time, she felt that food was so precious and not a single bit could be wasted.
"correct!"
Throwing the torn paper cup into the trash can, Xiao Han suddenly clasped his hands together and thought of a good idea.
"If we continue to go down here, we will encounter another one. There is also a vending machine in that one. When we finish eating that one, we will continue to go down.
"You said this place is infinite, so as long as we keep going down, there will be a continuous supply of vending machines, so we will never be able to finish eating?"
"No……"
Meng Fei was actually not very hungry, because he was not in a good mood and had a bad appetite, so he ate slowly.
"If you think about it, Mr. An kept running and we stayed still, but we saw Mr. An passing by many times.
"This shows that this is not an infinite expansion of space, but a cycle of space. When we finish the food here and go down to the next one, we are just returning to the original position."
Meng Fei made a gesture with both hands to represent a line segment of limited length.
"The entire area must be limited, but it forms a closed loop from end to end, making it impossible for us to get out. The food here is gone, and the food down there is also gone.
"Assuming that the area is infinitely long, it means that a person with superpowers needs to use superpowers to create an infinite amount of food, which requires infinite computing power and infinite negentropy. How is this possible?"
