the only savior

Chapter 716 Mecha Engineer Nume

The two continued to move towards the interior of the base.

At first, we passed a green ecological garden, which is used to grow vegetables, fruits and other crops.

But now because of the scarlet light, the plants are all withered, and it is a dilapidated scene.

Zhang Xiaoman's eyes swept across the super-large aquarium, and all the fish in it disappeared, leaving only a large piece of algae.

Compared to plants that live on land, these algae may look inconspicuous, but they are the last hope of the planet.

The harm caused by the scarlet light is far more than a simple mutation.

Although it can't infect unconscious plants, under such light, these flowers, plants and trees can't survive, and they all die.

Fortunately, the ancient prism star is similar to the water blue star, and most of the oxygen is supplied by algae.

Algae naturally do not require too much sunlight, can produce a large amount of oxygen, and are protected by the natural barrier of the water surface.

This makes the survivors on this planet not directly extinct because of the low oxygen content in the air.

Walking along this aquarium, the two entered a passage, and at the end of the passage, there was another door of fallen alloy that was sealed.

Zhang Xiaoman repeated the old trick, opened the door with the same method, and suddenly felt a burst of openness in front of him.

Behind the door is a huge space, the length and width each occupy several hundred meters, and the height has reached more than 30 meters. Just a light ball of the Flashing Charm can't even illuminate it.

Not only that, but what pleased Zhang Xiaoman the most was that in the huge space in front of him, there were two 20-meter-high mechs towering impressively.

The two mechas are covered in milky white, one on the left and the other on the right. They look domineering and ferocious in appearance, just like those seen in various animation movies, full of powerful beauty.

"This is the workshop where we parked the mechs. These two are close guards, good at guarding and defending, and are specially used to defend against wild beasts."

Sol walked and introduced the two behemoths in front of Zhang Xiaoman.

Zhang Xiaoman was very interested and listened attentively all the way.

"It's a pity, because of the damn scarlet light, these two mechas have been scrapped now, otherwise we can at least let those aberrants have a taste..."

Sol shook his head, his face full of unwillingness.

The light in Zhang Xiaoman's eyes was flowing, obviously he had another plan.

Although mechas can no longer be used here, it is different on Aquamarine.

He can bring these things back and arrange them on the water blue planet, so that the strength of human beings will also be greatly improved.

However, the problem now is that I seem to have no way to bring it back intact.

Although I have the ability to teleport, but the mecha in front of me is too big, and I can't transfer with my teleportation at all.

If you want to bring them back, there is a way to break them into pieces, dismantle them into pieces and send them back, and then assemble them on the water blue star, so that the humans over there can also successfully own mechas Such a big killer.

But in this way, they can't do it by themselves, he needs professionals in this field, otherwise it would be useless to call all the bosses from the research department.

"Numei is my best comrade-in-arms. She used to be a genetic soldier, but her leg was permanently damaged in an operation of piloting a mecha, and she changed her career to become a mecha engineer..."

Saul said from the side.

Zhang Xiaoman noticed what he said and couldn't help becoming interested.

"Numei you said, she is a mecha engineer? In other words, she should be very good at installing this thing?"

Sol was taken aback when he heard the words. Although he was a little confused why the other party said that, he still nodded and said:

"Yes, many mecha engineers used to be genetic fighters. Only by driving them can we understand them better... Although Niumei is not a top expert, but in this area, there are not many of them. It’s a talented person, and it’s not a problem to install this kind of guard-level mecha..."

Zhang Xiaoman's eyes lit up immediately, he felt that he was really dozed off, someone was giving him a pillow, and he was worried that no one would help him deliver this thing, but a mecha engineer came out over there.

And the reason why he had this reaction was because along the way, he discovered something different in this underground base.

About 50 meters in front of the two of them, behind an iron gate, there was a figure sitting there. Judging from the figure, it seemed to be a woman.

If he didn't guess wrong, that woman might be the best "brother" that Sol said.

"Perhaps, your girlfriend is not dead..."

There was a golden light in his eyes, and he was staring at a certain place in front of him.

When Sol heard him say his "girlfriend", the expression on his face was a little awkward.

However, after realizing the content of his words, he couldn't help showing a look of surprise and expectation.

"Here, Master Jixing, are you serious? She, she is right in front...?"

Now, after witnessing a series of strengths displayed by the other party, Thor unconsciously changed his name to Zhang Xiaoman into a respectful title.

Zhang Xiaoman nodded, didn't explain much, but led the middle-aged man towards the place he saw.

"Boom boom boom!"

After approaching, suddenly there was a slight impact sound, which made Sol, who couldn't see the situation ahead, nervous for a while.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a famished mutant."

Zhang Xiaoman walked over, and then shot out a wind blade, immediately cutting off the head of the deformed body that was hitting the alloy gate.

This monster looks the same as the previous two, with a skinny and emaciated appearance, like a refugee who has been starving for several years. No wonder Zhang Xiaoman said just now that they are starving deformities.

"This...why do they look like this...?"

Sol obviously noticed this situation, and asked subconsciously.

Zhang Xiaoman used the violent spirit technique to cut the fallen metal gate in front of him, and explained:

"Although aberrants have speed and strength beyond ordinary people, they are still a kind of living things after all. Since they are living things, they cannot avoid the intake of energy, and the scarlet light outside is the best way to maintain their activities. nourishment……"

"Although I don't know what happened here, there will be so many mutants. But one thing is certain, they have been imprisoned here for a long time, unable to touch the light outside, so they will gradually lose the ability to act , it’s not surprising that it became like this.”

After what he said, Sol immediately understood.

"So, I understand... It seems that these guys are not invincible... If we can surround them, then we should be able to..."

He couldn't help shaking his head when he said this, and he denied that idea first.

"No, the cost of this is too great. Instead of spending time with them, it's better to find a way to solve them..."

Zhang Xiaoman was noncommittal to his statement, his movements did not pause at all, and he had already opened the door in front of him.

"Bang!"

The alloy door was cut open, revealing the scene inside.

This is a warehouse-like place, with various boxes stacked neatly all around. Zhang Xiaoman saw the contents of some of the opened boxes, which were the supplies that the two of them came to look for this time.

"Corona suit, compressed food... It seems that this is the warehouse of the underground base..."

He secretly thought in his heart that Thor really didn't lie to him, there was indeed a large amount of food and war supplies here.

But apart from these things, there is one more thing that concerns him right now. In the corner of the warehouse, there is a figure in a white Corona combat uniform curled up by the wall.

"Newme!!"

Saul yelled when he saw this, and ran over in three steps at a time. It was obvious that the person in front of him was the "good brother" he was going to look for.

"Nume, are you okay, it's me, I'm back, I'm Saul..."

He stretched out his hand to test the other person's breath, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he found that she was still alive.

Zhang Xiaoman came over, holding a four-leaf flower in his hand, handed it to the man in front of him, and said:
"Feed this to her. Also, she is very weak now and should be dehydrated. You'd better find some water for her quickly."

Sol heard the words and quickly plucked the flowers in his hand. Although he didn't understand what the purpose of this thing was, he knew that it must be able to save Niumei, thanked him and stuffed it into the woman's mouth.

Ten minutes later, the woman who had been sitting on the ground and fell into a coma finally woke up. For such an engineer, Zhang Xiaoman naturally would not be stingy with his points.

"Sol...?"

The moment the woman opened her eyes, she saw Sol who had been guarding in front of her all the time, and she still looked a little unbelievable.

"I, am I dreaming...you really came back...?"

"It's me! It's me!"

Sol hugged the other party, and kept saying some comforting words in his mouth. The two reunited after a long absence, and they had overcome the obstacles of life and death, so they naturally had some tenderness.

Zhang Xiaoman didn't interrupt them either, he walked around the base by himself, took a good look at the two 20-meter-high white mechas, and satisfied his long-standing curiosity about mechas.

If it wasn't because he couldn't find the entrance, he even wanted to sit in and have a look, and experience the joy of being a mech pilot.

In the end, Saul and Niumey, who appeared to be comrades-in-arms but were actually second-married couples, finally finished their reminiscence work and walked out of the warehouse inside.

Both of Niumey's legs had suffered permanent nerve damage that never healed, so Sol pushed the wheelchair out.

"This is the Pole Star Lord I told you about. He is a powerful leader from the High-level Civilization Star Alliance. It is because of him that I can come back here..."

Saul introduced them face to face.

Zhang Xiaoman also had an understanding of this woman named Niumei.

Just as he thought, Niumey is his girlfriend, but the two parties have been in an ambiguous stage, and the relationship has not been confirmed.

After such a series of incidents, they finally found an opportunity and became a bunch of doomsday couples.

"Thank you, Master Jixing..."

Newmey looked a little frail.

This is caused by being locked in a closed space for a long time and lacking moisture.

But she doesn't seem to have any problems, and she only needs a period of recuperation to recover.

"Nuimei, what happened here? Why did this happen after I came back even though I was fine when I went out? Where did those deformities come from?"

When Niumei heard this, a bitter expression appeared on his face.

"Sol, we were attacked, someone was infected and became a mutant, which eventually led to the fall of the entire base..."

"Assault?"

"Yes……"

Newmey nodded.

"It was a long worm-like monster. It emerged from the energy core of the ground and brought up a large pile of black stones. Wenk was irradiated by the red lines on it, and it didn't take long to become That deformed monster..."

"The black stone... is the seal of God!?"

Sol immediately understood what the other party was saying.

This kind of thing called God Seal is based on the name of a very famous doomsday sci-fi movie. Just like the zombies on the water blue planet, it is a name that everyone knows.

The divine seal is not uncommon in the outside world. Wherever there is such a thing, there is almost no living survivor. As long as people are shrouded in its red light, they will also be polluted and eventually become deformed.

"Yes, it is the seal of God... Although we sealed the basement immediately, Wen Ke still broke in. Not only that, he also brought the black stone fragments..."

Newmey confirmed his suspicions.

"Then, what happened to the gate outside, why was it sealed?"

Saul asked.

"It's Danica, she went out alone with a black stone to save the rest of us... Those monsters will open the door, and she completely sealed the door to prevent us from being in danger... I lost my legs... ...I can't stop her, I'm sorry... woo woo woo..."

Niumey told the reason why the gate was blocked, which made the whole thing clearer.

Saul comforted his girlfriend, while Zhang Xiaoman went back to the warehouse and tapped the supplies.

Originally, he planned to see if he could develop this place as a new base, but now it seems that there are too many external threats, far less safe than the city.
