September 6, 1991, time 1:31 am.
Liu Shiheng cursed all the way and ran and walked cautiously on the way south.
He has been walking for nearly twenty hours. The situation ahead is unknown and the danger is doubled. Without a map, he could only take out the team's intercom and try to contact him every time he walked. If there was no result, he would continue walking.
"I don't know if I went astray..."
"I hope those children and the elderly will be okay if they hide themselves. When notification 1777 comes out, they can be rescued. Then I myself, Sayonara, goodbye..."
"Cherish life and stay away from the blue."
"Lao Jian, you stupid bastard, how did you become the captain? Turn around. Come and catch me and the deserters."
"Han Qingyu, bastard, get out of here! Get in front of me... Something will happen if you don't come, Qingzi."
"Wu Shi, can you get lost? Come here, Mi. I'm so panicked now."
Hungry, tired, afraid...Liu Shiheng boiled it all down to one word: unlucky.
"Obviously, I'm just a deserter... I finally escaped, but suddenly I encountered one bad thing after another... but I figured it out. What if I was a fool? I was biased. No. You can’t shrink back this time and leave it to others.”
On a huge plateau, on a moonlit night, Master Shiheng, dressed in a grass-green concealment outfit, seemed to be walking alone, carrying an unwilling burden.
Around the same time, on the way from Aung La Rhen Tso to Zada, there was an unnamed grassland.
"Here it comes! Get ready." Shen Yixiu's voice shouted.
A black armored figure without arms was running swaying left and right.
Xi Mei held one of its arms and ran in front of it. In the darkness, she quickly passed over a large dark hole in the ground smoothly.
"Tsk...!" The black-armored man braked in time behind her and stopped in front of the cave.
This thing seems to have pretty good eyesight.
But at this time, Han Qingyu had already circled behind it from the side, jumped up and kicked it hard after a quick run-up, and "bang", he kicked firmly on the center of gravity of the large pointed waist of the black armor.
The huge body did not fall down, but arched its waist and moved its body straight forward for several meters.
"Kong!"
Dajian's body fell down just in time, and his whole body fell into the pre-dug hole, leaving only his neck and head outside.
"Bang!" Wu Shi, who had been waiting for a long time, jumped into the water and smashed a huge stone into the hole with both hands, temporarily blocking the big tip.
Then he lay down on the ground and clasped his hands together, strangling Da Jian's neck from behind and hugging him tightly to prevent him from moving.
"superior!"
After a burst of earth and rocks splashed, the dust blocked the moonlight, and the black-armored Dajian's entire body was buried tightly by the earth and rocks, leaving no gaps.
Logically speaking, the weight of earth and rocks cannot hold down the big tip. From past experience, it can always break through huge rocks at will.
But in the current situation, it has no hands and can't even move its head. It just has a pair of feet underneath it, but it is firmly held down by Wu Shi and Xi Mei above, and it can't get up no matter what.
"How is it?!" Han Qingyu asked, waving away the dust in front of his eyes.
"No, it didn't self-destruct." Wen Jifei was a little excited.
"It's getting weaker and weaker...it doesn't move much anymore." Xi Mei lay on the ground, pressing against the earth and rocks.
"Okay, Wu Shi, hold down and let it continue to consume energy. Let's see what happens in the end."
"Um."
This is another attempt by Han Qingyu to capture Dajian alive.
There seems to be a glimmer of hope.
The dust in the sky gradually fell, and the loud screams and the fierce struggle just now attracted the team that happened to be nearby. They drove their devices and carried their swords, charging decisively and anxiously, ready to join the battle and rescue their comrades.
But in the end, he stopped at a loss a hundred meters away.
"What, what are you doing?!" one of the team members asked in confusion.
"Haven't you heard? They, just Major Qing's group, have big grills." The captain of another team, who also came from the wrong direction of Aung La Ren, stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to look at it for a while, "It looks like they have already Not content with just roasting your arms.”
"Well, I'm pressing my head." The team member beside him nodded.
There was a moment of silence around him. Some people were horrified, some were dumbfounded, and some had goosebumps. This is too scary. For most ordinary teams, black-armored giants are still monsters that they need to treat with caution. If they are not careful, there may be casualties. But now, some people have begun to treat them as food. .
"Probably delicious."
"It should be a big boost. Otherwise, why would they be so strong?!"
Amidst the chaotic discussion.
When Han Qingyu heard the sound, he turned around and saw the person. After thinking about it, he simply called everyone over and said with a smile: "I just happened to have discovered something recently that I would like to tell you about."
For a long time, the Blue Team's attacks on Dajian have mostly focused on key parts such as the neck and chest, or on parts such as the waist and knees that can restrict its movement.
"I don't know if the batch after the Battle of Mount Hilang is different from before, but in the past few days, I accidentally discovered that their shoulders, at this connection position, are actually relatively vulnerable to attack here..."
Han Qingyu squatted on the ground, pointed at the big tip in the pit and said: "If you can, remove one of its arms first, and the effect will be very good for subsequent operations to avoid casualties. Relatively speaking, its trunk and head are more difficult to …”
"Click!"
Han Qingyu stopped talking, turned around, and looked at Wu Shi helplessly.
Everyone at the scene looked at Wu Shi.
Wu Shi lowered his head and stood up slowly... His hands were hanging in the air, holding the big pointed head, a big head.
Looking up, standing there with awkward eyes, Wu Shi looked at everyone, remained silent for a few seconds, and said, "I'm sorry."
Probably because he struggled to pull the saw and twisted it for too long... He just unscrewed the big pointed head.
"Go away, go away...throw it away, Wu Shi."
A crackling sound appeared under the earth and rocks. Wen Jifei suddenly shouted and led people to run away.
After Dajian died, he began to self-destruct, including his head that had been broken off by Wu Shi. At this point, the only exception seems to be their arms.
Soon, the rain of fragments stopped, and Han Qingyu also put away the metal blocks. He now had 29 pieces.
"Speaking of which, have you noticed anything strange?" Wen Jifei and the two teams were smoking and chatting on the side, and said, "It seems that it's easy to be alone in Dajian recently. We've encountered it three times. .”
"We did it too, twice. It was much easier to fight."
"We had one too. It was like picking it up for free."
People from both teams said they had encountered the same situation.
"This is strange! This batch, couldn't their heads have been crushed when they were walking in that unfinished traction array, right?"
Wen Jifei made a joke and everyone laughed.
After chatting for about twenty minutes, the three parties parted ways.
Han Qingyu gave each of the two teams a large pointed arm and asked them to turn in their merits.
"Are you going to the southwest?" The team leader whose surname was Huang, whose search range has been in this area, asked from behind.
"Well, go to Zada and find us 1777." Han Qingyu turned around and said.
"Why, did 1777 go to Zada?"
"Well, let's go find out."
"Then why didn't we meet? Our team has been guarding here all the time." Captain Huang thought for a while and said with a smile: "Then maybe they spent the night? It's a pity that I missed it, otherwise I could still be with you The labor team reminisced about old times."
He waved his hand and said, "Please remember to speak for me when we meet."
"Okay, I will convey it to our labor team."
"See you next time."
"Goodbye Captain Huang."
Han Qingyu waved his hands in unison, then turned around and disappeared into the night.
"Oops." When the backs of the four people disappeared, a team member next to Captain Huang slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot to ask about the barbecue. How do you grill this thing, Captain Huang? We don't know how." "
Captain Huang turned around and gave him a blow with his big pointed arm, "Eat it, uncle! Didn't you hear that this thing can make meritorious service if handed over? Eat it, eat it."
…………
On the same day, 11:20 am. Weilan Hua Department of Science and Technology 2, Language Department Office.
Untidy desks are arranged in every corner. Section chief Zhang just made a cup of hot tea and sat down to sip it slowly. Xiao Li raised his head during a break in work and pressed the leaves of the green plants on the table with the tip of his pen. The tip of the pen scratched out streaks of dust. Sister Liang was on the phone...
Xin Yaoqiao lowered his head, his expression focused, and his pen tip kept moving on the page. On the desktop, a page of manuscript paper has been written from the top to the bottom, and the special characters compiled for deciphering the Dajian civilization language are densely packed.
In fact, all the work in the language department has been guesswork until now. No one here dares to say that they are completely sure of their judgment.
A very simple question can knock them down - what if Dajian civilization, like Azure, has multiple languages, or even countless dialects? !
Think about the types of dialects in Sino-Asia... If this is the case, many of the syllables they intercepted must be re-filtered, re-selected, and analyzed.
Moreover, some words are indeed really strange. For example, during the army meeting, Han Qingyu told Xin Yaoqiao about this "Yan Xi".
This word appears for the first time, and it is incompatible with most of the bytes and syllables accumulated by Azure in the past, as if it is not the same system at all.
Xin Yaoqiao once suspected that it was a strange dialect of some kind of advanced civilization, such as a regional swear word.
At the same time, since Qingzi thought that this sentence was probably meant for him, for the sake of caution, Xin Yaoqiao did not let his colleagues participate in the cracking.
She sank in. From the time she came back on September 2nd to now, she had slept less than six hours in total. She had already used up an entire copy of the same manuscript paper as the one on the desktop... before she finally found some transferable connections by combining cutting-edge results from other research areas.
"Click!"
The sound of a pen suddenly hitting the table.
"What's wrong? Qiaoqiao?" Sister Liang turned back and asked worriedly.
"Ah? No, it's okay." Xin Yaoqiao unnaturally covered the end of the page with both hands, sitting upright like a primary school student, raised his head and said, "I'm just a little sleepy, I just dozed off accidentally."
"I told you that you can't endure it anymore. Even if the situation becomes more and more critical, you can't fight like this." Sister Liang sounded a little reproachful. She looked at her watch and said, "That's right. Let's go to the cafeteria to eat. After eating, you can ask for leave and come back." Have an afternoon rest at home.”
With that said, she stood up and motioned for Xin Yaoqiao to go with her.
"Ah? Thank you Sister Liang, but I, I will go home to eat today. Sister Liang, you go and eat first. I will go home after taking a while."
Xin Yaoqiao persisted until all her colleagues left. After waiting for a while, she slowly removed her hand from the end of the manuscript paper... There was no clear and complete solution on it, only a few directional guesses and judgments:
Words of a mythical nature.
Not the same kind as Dajian or claiming to be.
Non-human? (Not sure), but all the big tips have different names for human beings that have appeared in the past.
So, what exactly is Aoko?
Combined with the previous "Collection of Dajian Main Ship Instructions" on the Xilangfeng battlefield, there seems to be a sentence in it: "The core is directly attacked by energy monsters"...
"The person who issued the order in the main ship at that time was probably the talking little red-shouldered man, right?"
So, it knows what Aoko is to a certain extent, but it’s not clear?
Its knowledge is similar to our "listening and hearing" category in terms of context and logic.
For example, we have heard about the existence of dragons and phoenixes, about the Yellow Emperor and Chi You, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie... Bah.
"Suppose Qingzi is a... a... a non-human, non-big, energy monster that only exists in the stories about the little red-shouldered man."
"Simplified, Qingzi is some kind of energy monster with a specific name."
"Simplified, Aoko is a beast... Bah."
"But, it seems to make sense. Otherwise, why would Aoko always have such an attitude towards girls... What about Naoto? He said he has never been attracted to any girl."
"Because of it," Xin Yaoqiao used it subconsciously, "Bah, because he won't be tempted by someone of the same kind... just like a tiger won't fall in love with a mouse."
"No, no, this analogy is too absolute and too detailed. It should probably be said that he has never encountered an existence on the same level as him... This is more appropriate."
"Then will he suddenly meet a female super and become attracted to her?! That's not okay, don't do it."
Xin Yaoqiao tried hard to take back the divergent thinking based on personal emotions and return the reasoning to the step of "Qingzi is a beast".
According to research by other scientific research departments of Weilan, it is very likely that there has been a large amount of source energy in the history of this planet.
So, what was devouring these source energies before humans appeared?
beast.
So, what about those beasts that swallowed up a lot of source energy? Where have they gone?
left?
Dead?
Xin Yaoqiao tore off the conclusion part of the manuscript paper, put it into the data destroyer, broke it into pieces, and burned it.
She didn't want Qingzi to be involved in research because of herself, because of a completely unreliable guess.
Qingzi is not the only genius in the world. Xin Yaoqiao heard that there is a newcomer in Mitili who has been promoted to the top level faster than Qingzi. So, is he also a beast?
She wanted to ask for some information first.
