Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the old Earth, the land ravaged by large-scale nuclear war has hardly returned to its former appearance, and the oceans have also been eroded by severe pollution.  After the "doomsday" crisis, the planet has undergone irreversible changes.

    More than 50% of the land has turned into desert, and the color of the ocean has changed, from purple to black Areas with different levels of pollution have different manifestations.  There are almost no living creatures in the shallow sea. The cut off ecological chain has caused a certain degree of mutation in deep-sea creatures. The fittest survive, and species that cannot adapt to environmental changes become extinct.

    As many twenty-first-century scientists predicted, the polar ice caps eventually melted, flooding the Ohio Valley, sinking Australia into the sea, and turning New York into a quagmire

    War brings death, death stops war.

    When the last few people looked at their devastated homes and found that the second "sun" disappeared in the sky, heat, hunger, thirst, pain, regret, despair all of these came to their hearts and will accompany them.  , until death comes.

    Intense radiation polluted the fertile land near the equator, and the ruins of the city glowed in the dark night. This situation lasted for a full hundred years.  Some species disappeared, others mutated and evolved.

    Time flies, dark clouds begin to gather on some barren and desolate lands, and heavy rain pours down, cooling the boiling poisonous sea water on the surface, dispersing the filthy air, and healing the open wounds of the earth.

    When the lukewarm rain washed away, a lifeless land appeared.

    There will always be some people who survive.  Human life is as fragile as an ant, but of course it will also be as tenacious as an ant.

    The survivors crawled out from the ruins of civilization and embarked on the road to survival.  They found that the temperature was hotter than in the past, and in non-desert areas, the water vapor in the air was thicker than before. There was an orange sky above their heads, and the sun gave off dazzling light.

    Among the ruins, some strange plants began to sprout, even if no one was watering them, even if they were exposed to the scorching sun.  These wild plants with weird colors and shapes are growing wildly, covering one piece of land after another.

    For the vicissitudes of the earth, this is not the first time such a dramatic change in climate The Ice Age, crustal changes, and volcanic eruptions have all left traces, but they have not changed the trajectory of the earth.  Now, it is still spinning and advancing in space unmoved as it was for the past three billion years.  Orbiting around the sun.

    Technology has become a thing of the past, and people who have survived the disaster have returned to their original state of existence.  Forming into tribal-like social structures, they roamed the face of the earth in search of foodand reliable safe havens.

    In those non-desert areas, there are poisonous swamps, deep canyons, muddy depressions, and desolate mountains.  But apart from that, there are indeed one or two paradise-like pure lands on this huge earth

    There is such a place in a canyon on the North American continent.  It was a huge underground cave as big as a city, in the shape of a pocket, with a thick "cloud" of vegetation covering the top like a pergola.  Withstood most of the scorching sun.  There are comfortable temperatures here; land and environment suitable for normal crop growth; clean and abundant underground water sources and most importantly, there is the wreckage of "half" an interstellar spacecraft.

    No one knows why this spaceship is here. Maybe it was once a secret scientific research base of a certain country, or maybe this is a spacecraft that crashed after a battle.

    In short, a tribe finally discovered this place.  The environment gave them the means to survive, and the wreckage of the starship allowed them to regain the spark of civilization.  Life flourished again and a new human society was established.

    Nearly three centuries have passed.  This place has become the only remaining human gathering place on earth, and the people living there call it Shenyou Village.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    In the Crystal Lake underground laboratory.

    Doomsday Strike has seen the end of the road. He searched all the forks and followed the corridor until he came here.  now.  There was an upward staircase in front of him, just like the zigzag fire stairs usually used in residential buildings. Next to it was an iron railing and handrails. The tread plates were also made of metal. You could vaguely see the situation above through the gap under your feet.

    He took out his weapon and approached cautiously. The light here was not good. Looking from below, it was difficult to detect whether there was an ambush.

    "You two of Jianghu, stop hiding, I have seen you!" Doomsday Strike was obviously a bluff, and he was not afraid of exposing his whereabouts, because he knew very well that this was the end of the laboratory, and the exit above was undoubtedly  , if Kuangzong Jianying and Feng Bujue want to ambush, there is only this last place??Choose.  And for the two people who were lying in ambush from a high position, their whereabouts must have been discovered long ago.

    "The grenade trick is really clever, huh?" Doomsday Strike said: "Kranging Jianying, that's all you have, right? You gangsters in the world are quite good at playing tricks." He said extremely  Try your best to quarrel without being blocked or silenced, hoping to inspire the other party to show up. After all, the enemy is in the dark and he is in the light at the moment, which is not very advantageous.

    "What's wrong? You still don't dare to come out?" Doomsday Strike snorted coldly: "You are two against me, are you afraid of this?"

    The only thing that responded to him was his own echo.

    "Hmph you have to think clearly." Doomsday Attack said: "Under the effect of indiscriminate reduction of survival value, the consumption of the two of you is twice as high as mine. If you fight cowardly when you have the advantage,  It will only be a useless waste of survival points." He paused, and then added: "I don't mind turning around and leaving, as far away from you as possible. When the time comes, everyone will use up the survival points to refill, and see who runs out first.  Even if I lose in the end, you will at least waste twice as much medicine as me."

    The words of a doomsday attack seem to make sense, but since he appears here at this moment, it means that he did not choose that strategy.

    If Doomsday Strike feels that it has no chance of winning in a direct confrontation, it will be impossible to continue to approach the opponent.  When he is killed in the final attack, he should run away in the opposite direction.  Find a favorable terrain to lie in wait, waiting for the other party to come to him.  If he succeeds in a sneak attack and kills one person directly, he still has a chance of winning.

    So there is only one reason why Doomsday Strike is here, that is, he is confident that he can fight one against two and win, and the basis of this confidence is obviously some kind of powerful skill or prop.

    He shouted for a while.  There was still no response from the top of the stairs, which actually made Doomsday Strike's situation awkward. He couldn't help but think: Could it be that there is another floor up to this laboratory from this staircase?  Is the upper layer the same size as the lower layer?

    Thinking of this, he cautiously touched the stairs and walked up slowly.  He could only do this. Once the other party refused to show up, there was nothing he could do.  Either go up or leave; secondly come.  If there is really another layer above, then he can shout here for an hour and the other party will not be able to hear him.

    He turned back and forth and climbed up the stairs, but he really didn't run into an ambush, and couldn't even detect any sign of a trap.  However, Doomsday Strike did not dare to be careless at all. The previous grenade incident was still fresh in my memory. His teammates were killed because they were too close, and he was almost killed.  I'm afraid this lesson will never be forgotten in his entire career, and even in his entire life.

    It took him five minutes to walk up the stairs, which was about three stories high, four times back and forth.  When they successfully reached the upper level, Doomsday Strike was stunned.  In front of him was a corridor, an empty corridor, with the end just ten meters ahead.  The entire wall there is a door. The door is divided into left and right parts, and the gap in the middle is meshed together in a zigzag shape. The thickness of this door is definitely not inferior to any bank vault.  And the switch next to the door has been destroyed

    "Where are the people?" This is the first reaction to the doomsday attack.

    He and Final Strike had already explored the other end of the laboratory, and the end here was the exit. Along the way, he saw the traces left by Feng Bujue and Kuangzong Jianying, and fell into their trap.  traps, and searched every fork in the road. He must be on the right track, but why is there no one here?

    "Did they go out?" This thought flashed through Doomsday Strike's mind, but he immediately rejected this speculation: "It's impossibleAccording to the script introduction, the environment outside is more severe than inside, and maybe survival is worth it.  It will lose weight faster. Besides, the switch is broken How could they get out?" He then thought again: "Could it be that they went outside to activate the switch to close the door first, and before closing the door, they opened the door on the inside.  The switch was destroyed and you want to lock me in?"

    "No way there is no benefit in going out." Doomsday Strike paced back and forth with a stiff expression. After a long time, he finally came up with a conjecture that he thought was correct: "Yes! It must be like this!" He thought  It suddenly dawned on me, but his face and tone were still the same: "They came to the end of the corridor, destroyed the exit switch, created the illusion that they had escaped from the laboratory, and then turned back They must have taken advantage of me to search on the side road.  At that moment, they quietly slipped through the main passage and missed each other At this moment, they may have hid at the end of the other side of the laboratory."

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    At the same time, outside the laboratory.

    Under the dusky sky, there is an undulating sea of ??sand.  There was a strong wind in the sky, and a black sand storm swept everywhere.  If a person stands unprotected like thisIn such an environment, it was difficult to keep one's eyes open. As long as one opened one's mouth to speak, one would inevitably eat a mouthful of sand, and the sound could not be heard even five meters away.

    A "sharp cabin" is floating on the sandy sea. The cabin is twenty meters long, six meters wide and more than four meters high. The external shape looks like a giant armored shark, but this shark cabin has no "fins".  The top is a streamlined and smooth design.  The color of the cabin is painted the same khaki as the desert. There is no windshield or visual device directly in front, and it travels entirely on the internal detection radar and navigation device.

    The air in the shark cabin has been treated. Although the two players did not wear protective clothing, their loss of survival points has stopped.

    At this time, Feng Bujue was sitting leisurely in the driver's seat with his head on his hands.  It didn't take him long to learn how to open the shark cabin. The operation interface of these devices was not complicated, and the navigation coordinates of the destination had already been entered. All he had to do was select the automatic mode.

    When Feng Bujue walked out of the laboratory and saw the outside environment, he understood that on this planet, manual driving is basically meaningless, because there is no "road" at all, let alone a road, and there is no reference object.  , so this shark cabin must rely on automatic navigation to drive to where it wants to go.

    So the question comes again, how did this group of people find Crystal Lake Laboratory?

    Hank said that their team came here to search after "getting orders." This sentence means that the higher-level department that issued the order to them has the specific coordinates of the Crystal Lake Laboratory.

    So a new question arises. Did their superiors detect this coordinate a long time ago, or did they just discover it today?  How did they find this place? Is it a miniature detection robot?

    Feng Bujue's guess is this team of people will come sooner rather than later. The "interstellar immigrants" will come as soon as they take the lead. This actually illustrates an obvious thing And Hank saw the "foreign immigrants" for the first time.  The reaction when he asked Feng Bujue gave him a basis for further reasoning. At this moment, although he had not yet arrived at the village, Feng Bujue could basically determine the situation there.

    "Why don't you kill him?" Kuang Zong Jianying sat in the passenger seat next to him. He turned his head and said to Feng Bujue, "Keep him, aren't you afraid of something changing?" His voice was naturally subdued when he said this.  Low enough so that Hank, who was tied up in the back corner, wouldn't hear.

    "If you have no grievances and no grudges, why would you kill people easily?" Feng Bujue replied.

    Kuangzong Jianying laughed twice: "No way Isn't it too late for you to pretend that you are lawful and righteous now?"

    "This has nothing to do with whether I am a lawful righteous person, it is mainly because this npc is still useful." Feng Bujue replied: "We still have to rely on his help to sneak into the village."

    "He will help us?" When Kuangzong Jianying spoke, he turned his head slightly and glanced at Hank who was pale in the distance with his peripheral vision. "Why? He can't resist now, but when he returns,  In the village, he can find an opportunity to escape at any time, or he can just shout for others to catch us."

    A smile appeared on Feng Bujue's lips, and he replied: "Everyone has weaknesses. Once caught, they will betray their principles, and then they will do whatever you want." He stood up from his seat.  He stood up and said softly: "For Hank just use simple force deterrence and psychological oppression." After saying that, he walked towards Hank
