Ma Tao had seen a lot of dead people, and there were all kinds of death methods. It was not surprising, but when he saw this corpse, Ma Tao was really shocked.
In the room, behind the only table in the room, there was a skeletal corpse. Judging from the figure, it should be that of an adult male. Because it was blocked by the table, the corpse inside could not be seen from the counter window outside. of.
Ma Tao didn't pay attention to the corpse at first. When his sister said there was a corpse, he just walked over to take a look and planned to leave. However, a suspicious point was discovered by Ma Tao at this glance.
After the corpse rots, all that is left are bones and some dried rotten meat. The structural material of human bones is calcium. This kind of thing will not rot and can even be preserved for a long time. It may even become a fossil in the end. , from a bone, you can tell the person's previous physical condition, such as whether he had any diseases or injuries. The bones will be preserved for you. The bones of this corpse are.
The originally ordinary withered bones were black from the neck to the abdominal cavity, and the color was very light, but the junction line was particularly obvious on the white skeleton of the entire skeleton.
"He was poisoned..."
Gao Han also saw the dark color on the skeleton.
"That's right, and the poison is very powerful, it can poison into the bone marrow."
Ma Tao had seen on TV that many people who were poisoned would let toxic substances invade into their bones, leaving traces on the skeleton of the corpse after death. This was the case in the famous Wu Dalang incident, where people died due to lead poisoning. .
But in modern times, there are many toxic substances that do not contain lead, such as neurotoxins, cyanide, etc., which are basically highly toxic substances that only require a small amount to be fatal. However, there is a problem with lead poisoning caused by these toxic substances. What is far inferior to it is pain. Mild poisoning can cause vomiting, nausea and other symptoms, while severe symptoms can cause difficulty breathing, which is the same as the unbearable pain caused by poisoning of organs. This is a very torturous way to die, such as cyanide and other highly toxic substances, which can end the life of an adult in a few seconds. Therefore, this corpse must have suffered tremendous pain before death. He died in pain. It is more likely that the person who poisoned him must have been around him at the time, and might even have been standing in front of him watching him die slowly and painfully.
There was also a wooden box inside the corpse, but it was empty and contained nothing. He didn't know what it had been in before. Ma Tao estimated that it might have something to do with the person who was poisoned.
"This man is probably not a bandit. The material of his clothes is not coarse cloth."
Gao Han realized that the clothes the skeleton was wearing were not cheap, and he couldn't afford them without the money.
"A premeditated murder"
Ma Tao's eyes turned to the empty box.
"I said, can you two stop staring at a corpse so fascinatedly? We are not here to solve the case."
Xiao Jinzi saw that these two people were studying the stinking corpse like Sherlock Holmes.
Ma Tao and Gao Han looked at each other, turned and left.
There was such a corpse occupying this place, and it was still mutilated. It was somewhat unlucky. Ma Tao was not willing to stay in such a place for too long, so it was inevitable to change the place.
The entire ferry terminal is deserted. According to Varu himself, he was chased here by the red wolf. It is normal that there is no one here. The strongest bounty hunters are here. If you don't run away, you are not hanging yourself. Do you think you have a long life? It is estimated that all those bandits must have escaped.
After leaving the ferry terminal, there is still a vast grassland, green sea and blue sky, and the scenery is breathtaking. If there was no Noah monster to cause trouble, this would definitely be a holy land for tourism.
Varu said that Gomez was hiding near the waterfall, but he didn't know the specific location. Although he was the bandit boss, all the instructions were conveyed by leader Gomez through the driverless modified car. , he didn't know anything about many things, and he didn't dare to ask. It would be a life-threatening situation. In this way, Ma Tao could only find the location of the waterfall by himself.
In fact, if you think about it, if it was so easy to see Gomez by taking a transport ship, then how could the red wolf search for him everywhere but not find him?
Thinking of this, Ma Tao felt that his decision was a bit hasty, but after coming here, he couldn't just go back. Anyway, their tanks are in good condition now, and they will use the fax machine to return when they can't find them anymore. , this is the worst plan.
The aimless motorcade, led by Ma Tao, began to wander around the vast grassland like headless flies.
The north side is full of water, so there is no need to think about it. Ma Tao first chose to go west to take a look, but before walking far, he found that the west side was blocked by a canal, making it impossible to pass. But this was okay, it didn't mean that Gomez was hiding. Near the Great Falls, the water will not flow backwards. The direction of the canal will eventually flow to the sea. Then Ma Tao walked along the canal and couldn't believe that he could not find the location of the Great Falls. When he arrived at the Great Falls, Gomez Not far away.
Just like that, they turned the car around and started searching south.
The canal is very wide, with a width of more than a hundred meters. If there is no bridge at this width, it is impossible to reach the other side of the world. Ma Tao is not in a hurry. They still have boats, but they rashly do so without understanding the actual situation. Going to a new place is never a wise move, especially in this world, where any reckless behavior may cost you your own life.
Soon, they encountered the first monster to land on this continent, but it was an old friend, the command vehicle, the command vehicle.
There was no suspense in the battle. The three command vehicles basically fired one shot at a time, and all of them were turned into scrap metal.
After the first shot was fired, the rest of the battle started in succession, including basically everything from vehicle-mounted cannons to giant hippopotamuses. Of course, there were also some new species, such as alloy birds.
From the name, you can basically guess what this thing is. In fact, it is indeed the case. The introduction given by the C device says that this is a kind of machine whose whole body is made of alloy, especially the alloy beak of this monster. , which is a sharp weapon that can easily penetrate the armor of a tank.
The tank shield perfectly solves the confusion of collaging armor pieces, saving a lot of time, and more importantly, it can perfectly average the damage. If Ma Tao and his tank are still using old-fashioned physical armor pieces at this time, when When a certain location is attacked one after another, it is when a tank becomes weak. Therefore, after every serious battle, it has to get off the vehicle and even out the armor pieces. To put it bluntly, it is the act of tearing down the east wall to repair the west wall. The monsters encountered are getting stronger and stronger, and it is impossible for there to be monsters that cannot break through the defense of the tank. The birth of the tank shield perfectly solves this problem.
There were two alloy birds encountered in total. The alloy birds with gray metallic luster all over their bodies looked particularly dazzling in the sun.
For these monsters that can fly in the sky, if you want to kill them, the main gun is not very easy to use. This made Ma Tao instantly remember the first time he came into contact with the flying monster rifle bird, it was Su Lanyu who caught him with a net. Yes, it’s really unbearable to think about it now.
If you want to kill flying monsters, the best weapon is naturally the secondary gun, or SE equipment. Generally, no one will use expensive SE weapons to kill such small monsters. It would be a waste to bombard mosquitoes with cannons.
Once the flying monsters can no longer fly, they become meat on the felt board, and you can do whatever you want with them.
The two alloy birds circled in the sky for two times before being shot down by the secondary guns of four tanks before they could launch an attack. Two 15mm machine guns and two laser secondary guns blocked and strafed them. One attack was completed. Fight resolved.
However, the body of the alloy bird is indeed hard enough and large enough. It can be two to three meters wide when the metal wings are spread out. After being hit by the laser secondary cannon, the wings fell to the ground and still wanted to flap and continue to attack. , was directly blown away by the main gun, but even if it was hit by the 115T gun, the body of the alloy bird still remained intact, but the precision parts and equipment inside had been greatly damaged, so it was considered useless.
Continuing to walk south along the river bank, Ma Tao's idea was completely stranded due to the road conditions.
The canal to the west turned a corner, but Ma Tao and the others couldn't get through it. This made Ma Tao's idea of looking for a waterfall along the canal ruthlessly cut off by God.
A shocking world stood before them.
The originally vast grassland suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a stretch of desert without any grass growing on it. The junction between the grassland and the desert was actually so consistent. If you take one step forward, you will still have green grass, but if you take a step back, you will find a desert with no grass growing on it. It is even more shocking. What was shocking was that there were so many cracks in the ground scattered across the desert.
The so-called cracks in the earth are long rows of cracks on the ground. They are like being chopped by a sharp sword. In this desert, the cracks on the ground can't be seen at a glance. The longest crack can't be seen at a glance. Every crack is like an opening, and the fractures are not neat. The bottom is pitch black and bottomless. There is no wind below, which means that there is no passage underneath.
"This...how could this be like this?"
Ma Tao saw the outside world through the car screen and was filled with doubts.
How can I say this place? It looks like someone is stabbing it out again and again with a super-large sharp knife. But how did such a landform form?
"This place is so strange..."
What Gao Han in Car No. 3 noticed was the surrounding environment, that is, the clearly connected growth environment where the grassland and the desert meet.
"There is radiation here, but it's very weak."
Su Lanyu, who was also in car No. 3, glanced at the line of red prompts on the display.
"It's not just weird, it's simply weird..."
Xiao Jinzi took up the conversation again, but before he could finish speaking, the boy suddenly started shouting: "Holy shit, go back! There is radiation in this place! Go back!!!"
Apparently, his car and device C also sent a reminder message.
The next second, the four tanks moved backwards almost at the same time.
Radiation refers to the phenomenon that part of the electromagnetic energy emitted by a field source breaks away from the field source and propagates to a distance, and then no longer returns to the field source. The energy spreads outward in the form of electromagnetic waves or particles (such as alpha particles, beta particles, etc.). All objects in nature, as long as the temperature is above absolute temperature zero, which is -273.15 degrees Celsius, are constantly transmitting heat outward in the form of electromagnetic waves and particles. This method of transmitting energy is called radiation. Trace amounts of radiation are not What impact will it have, but some radiation containing harmful substances is different.
Radiation is divided into mild injuries caused by electromagnetic radiation and nuclear radiation. Mild acute radiation sickness, such as fatigue, discomfort, and loss of appetite, may occur.
Moderate injury can cause moderate acute radiation sickness, such as dizziness, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and decreased white blood cell count.
Severe injuries can cause severe acute radiation sickness. Despite treatment, the exposed person may die within ten days, and the rest may recover. Symptoms include repeated vomiting, diarrhea, and significant decrease in white blood cell count.
Extremely severe injuries can cause extremely severe radiation sickness and have a high mortality rate. Basically, there is no way to save the patient and they can just wait to die.
Strangely enough, the danger reminder of Device C immediately disappeared as soon as she returned to the grassland. In order to verify this, Sister R drove her Jeep to test it twice, and found that it was indeed the case.
A palm-sized bird flew from the direction of the grassland. In mid-air, not long after the bird flew into the airspace of this crack in the earth, only a few hundred meters away, it tilted its head and fell straight down.
“This place is so weird”
There is a dangerous radiation area on one side, and on the other side there is a lush and vibrant grassland. The special landform here is really incredible. Ma Tao looked at the bird's experience and came to the conclusion that the closer you get inside, the greater the radiation. , so that it can cause death.
"But how come there is such serious radiation here? What is the source of radiation?"
Ma Tao was sitting in his car muttering to himself, but his watch was on and others could hear his words.
"If I'm not wrong, there must have been a big battle here."
Sister R's voice came from the communication watch.
"fighting?"
Xiao Jinzi looked at the desolate world outside the screen and the giant cracks crisscrossing the surface, shook his head and said, ""No way? What kind of battle can produce such terrifying power and destructive power, it has to be..."
Suddenly, Xiao Jinzi was stunned because he thought of something, a terrifying weapon that could really cause this situation.
"rail gun"
Sister R said these three words in an understatement, and everyone's hearts trembled, except Ma Tao who didn't feel anything at all.
"Is it SE?"
By some strange coincidence, Ma Tao asked such a question using his communication watch, and the watch fell silent instantly.
After a long while, Xiao Jinzi said helplessly: "Brother, I'm convinced, rail guns are not SE"
"Is that the main gun?"
Ma Tao asked another question that left everyone speechless.
"Brother, how did you learn in your village? You don't even know about rail guns and localized weapons that are rumored to be able to destroy the world?"
Xiao Jinzi is really convinced by his elder brother. He doesn't even know the most powerful weapon in the world. Didn't he have to go to school when he was young?
Railgun?
Ma Tao really didn't know what it was, but by searching Xiao V's memory, it vaguely reminded him of it.
"Railgun, the most powerful supporting fire system, is controlled by satellites and carries out precise strikes based on surface positioning. At present, under the impact of the orbital gun's super-high speed and huge energy, nothing can resist for more than one second, and everything will be vaporized. Lose"
Sister R patiently explains to students like a teacher lecturing to students who don’t understand.
In fact, Ma Tao also remembered part of it. Indeed, only railguns can have such terrifying power to destroy this place like this.
If nuclear weapons and hydrogen bomb weapons can destroy human civilization, then railguns can destroy the earth. What does this mean? Although nuclear weapons and hydrogen bomb weapons can release huge energy, their energy is diffuse. , but the rail gun is different. On the contrary, the rail gun is an attack power that relies on compressing concentrated energy to achieve single-point destruction. The compressed energy attack can even be accurate to an error of one or two meters.
Assuming that a railgun is used to concentrate energy and continuously impact a point on the earth, no one knows whether its huge power can penetrate the earth and destroy the center of the earth, and no one dares to do so, because once this assumption is established, the entire thing will be destroyed. The world is gone, the world is gone, how can there be any life left?
"But haven't the railguns been destroyed by Noah a long time ago?"
Xiao Jinzi has not forgotten that since he was a child, all the knowledge has told him about the power of rail guns, but they also reminded him that all rail guns were destroyed when Noah just launched the rebellion, but what he saw in front of him How to explain all this?
"Even if this place was destroyed by a railgun, looking at the situation, it seems that the time when the battle took place has been a long time ago, at least several decades. Maybe we were not even born when this big crack was formed."
Gao Han analyzed it and then said.
"That's what I thought. If there really was a rail gun, it would be impossible for the rumors not to leak out. Besides, if there really is someone who can control the rail gun in the world, why didn't he just destroy Noah to restore the world? Peace"
Su Lanyu's thoughts were almost the same as Gao Han's, but there were some things she didn't think about in detail.
"It's possible that the person controlling the rail gun is not a human being..."
Ma Tao's words once again caused everyone to fall into silence.
Yes, if Noah is the one controlling the rail gun, then...
The area of this large crack is not small, and there is radiation. This is no joke. Breaking through is bound to be a success. Ma Tao and the others moved along the edge of the large crack, trying to find a way to pass through. We dare not step across the chasm along the way, and always move forward where there is green grass, because the fact that weeds grow there means there is life.
Just when a small forest appeared in front of them, the convoy encountered another new mechanical monster on this continent, a seatless rifle.
Device C is first shown. It is a weapon used by humans before destruction. The appearance of the turret is equipped with a variety of weapons and can be used for combat in any environment.
Recoilless rifles look very much like tanks. However, recoilless rifles are artillery guns that have no recoil when fired. They are mainly used to directly aim at armored targets. The loading method of recoilless rifles is very similar to traditional artillery. However, when firing, a considerable part of the gas produced by the gunpowder overflows from the rear of the artillery, thus generating a reverse momentum close to the forward momentum of the projectile. This makes the artillery itself produce almost no recoil. Of course, it still produces a certain amount of recoil when firing. Recoilless guns do not require the recoil buffer required for conventional artillery, making recoilless guns very light and easy to use, so infantry can also use recoilless guns to fire large-caliber shells.
The seatless rifle in front of you is a dark green tank with a beak-like machine gun at the top that can freely rotate and attack at 180 degrees. Below it are two rows of rocket launchers that can fire 70 caliber rockets, and at the bottom is a recoilless rifle with a caliber of at least 100.
When the recoilless rifle aimed and attacked, all the weapons rotated in the opposite direction. This saved Ma Tao. If the three weapons of this monster could be separated and attacked at the same time, it would be a nightmare.
At first, Ma Tao didn't pay much attention to this mechanical monster, but after the actual fight, Ma Tao discovered that not only was this weapon system awesome, but its defense capabilities were also extraordinary.
The recoilless rifle can only fire one rocket at a time. After hitting it, it can destroy more than 70 energy shields of the tank. The recoilless rifle can destroy more than 60 shields. Even the machine gun can destroy it. Deal more than thirty damage.
After all, Gao Han's minibus is a modified tank. Its chassis is not good and its defense is weak. Even the machine gun attack of the recoilless rifle can destroy the tank's shield value of more than 70%. If it is a rocket launcher, it can be as high as one. More than a hundred, followed by Sister R's jeep. It was quite difficult for their tanks to resist the attack of the recoilless rifle.
The chariot's shield kept flashing with light yellow light to counteract the recoilless attacks. On the other hand, although Ma Tao and his group's attacks could hit the monster every time, it also had a shield, and Ma Tao could feel it. Their 115T gun has become a little difficult to fire seatless rifles.
At this moment, Ma Tao suddenly regretted that he did not hide in Ir Town for a few days and try to replace the 135 cannon. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
