Become a legend in the interstellar

Chapter 250 The Unlucky Shi Sishi Team
At 07:30 in the morning, the jungle is quiet.

After a few continuous drizzles, the coldness of autumn became more and more obvious. Fresh dewdrops hung on the branches and grass leaves, crystal clear, like gems that fell at night.

"Crack-"

The hatch opened slowly, and Su Xia was the first to jump out.

Outside, his tall mecha was hidden by Hal with a camouflage net covered with dead vines and fallen leaves.

He walked over, ripped off the camouflage netting, and brushed off some leaves.

On the energy chamber on the back of the mech that was slightly hot, there were actually two warm stuffed animals that looked like squirrels with gray-black fur.

"Go... go..."

Su Xia showed no mercy, drove away the two little guys with a wave, and then activated the whole set of mechs.

The indicator light is on, and the connection of each mechanical module is opened. All indicators are almost normal, only the energy indicator is low.

He manually replaced two more psionic batteries.

When you are out of the house, the mech has no energy, just like your phone has no power, it is very uncomfortable.

Sun Lang and Chang Rufeng also climbed out of the cabin door and left the warm cabin. When they were blown by the cold morning wind outside, they couldn't help shivering.

"How did the temperature drop so quickly!" Sun Lang rubbed his palms, "This damn weather, can't it be warmer for a while? The girls on the street won't wear shorts anymore!"

"Brother Sun is right!"

Chang Rufeng nodded repeatedly, expressing his agreement.

Su Xia threw a few sober potions and antidotes to the two of them as usual, and told them to drink it, and pay attention to their condition at all times.

Once symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, and sore limbs appear, report them immediately.

After this night's rest, the poison in the two of them had been metabolized almost, and it was when they were full of energy that they took the medicine and set off immediately.

Hal also sent a repair robot to follow.

Three people and one machine continued to search for the trapped team in Dragon City along the route that had been proven last night.

Su Xia turned on the light of the mecha to illuminate the dark depths of the jungle, and said as she walked, "I found two corpses last night. They should be people you have seen."

"I don't know which unlucky ghost it is again." Sun Lang swallowed an antidote, "Commander, this medicine is still strawberry flavored, is there any blueberry flavor?"

"Yes, the black one."

"Hey, let me try."

"It's not juice..."

Seeing Sun Lang's actions, Su Xia was speechless for a while, stopped talking, and led the way silently.

After walking for half an hour, the first corpse appeared in front of everyone.

After identification, Sun Lang and Chang Rufeng confirmed that this person was also a member of Zero Point Tavern, and he also rushed over from the northwest of the mainland a few days ago.

"Hey, this guy is a poor guy. When he has money, he immediately squanders it. He buys a car and a luxury house, and changes a woman every few days..."

After searching the corpse for a long time, Sun Lang only found two weapons, which he could barely sell for a few dollars.

This guy lived a thorough life, spending as much money as he had.

People die and money is spent.

Everyone picked up some dead leaves and covered the corpse, which was considered a simple burial.

Afterwards, the group continued on.

Since the map of this area has basically been ascertained, and with Hal as a guide, the speed of this road is much faster than yesterday, and basically all dangerous areas can be avoided.

Another half hour later, the second body was found.

Sun Lang just took a look and recognized it: "This guy is the deputy owner of the branch outside. I didn't expect him to come too."

The way this man died was very strange.

His neck was hung on several tree vines, and his limbs were entwined by tree vines, apparently suffocated to death.

In this area, there are both psychedelic soul grass and withered vines. According to speculation, this person may have fallen into hallucinations first, and then crashed into the vine area while walking in a daze like sleepwalking, and died.

The skin on his neck has been corroded by the venom of the vine, the wound is disgusting, and the rotting flesh is disgusting.

"The badge of the deputy store owner, the fifth-level psionic dagger, the identity card of the deputy store... There are also mecha building contracts, slave contract contracts, two warehouse keys, manor real estate contracts..."

"There are a lot of good things about this guy."

"Gold coins exploded..."

Sun Lang became interested, and groped carefully on the rotting corpse, and actually found a few gold coins.

They are not ordinary gold coins, but commemorative gold coins before the war, and one can sell for 40-50 on the black market.

In addition to gold coins, there are also cross pendants, antique medals, crown gems, etc., all kinds of things with luck bonuses, which are very valuable, and the total sum can be sold for tens of millions.

As expected of the deputy store manager, the wealth he carries with him is amazing.

"These things are said to bring good luck to people." Sun Lang's eyes lit up, he was not polite, and he didn't let go of any valuables.

"So, with so much good luck superimposed on him, he is still dead?"

Chang Rufeng shrugged, apparently he didn't believe in luck, but only in his own strength.

On the side, Hal, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "In the Seventh Empire, there are many specialized research institutes responsible for researching things that cannot be explained by science, and luck is one of them."

Chang Rufeng asked him: "Robot, have those scientists researched it yet?"

Hal asked back, "Indigenous people, what do you think?"

"Probably not?"

"Yes." Hal replied indifferently, "After decades of research, the only conclusion I can see at the end is... lucky people like to laugh."

"..."

Can you still laugh when you are unlucky?

Chang Rufeng was powerless to refute, but he didn't expect that there are many experts in the interstellar world who cheat money all day long.

Not long after, Sun Lang ended his search.

From this corpse, he found at least 3000 million worth of good things, and after returning, he shared points with Su Xia and Chang Rufeng.

A group of people continued to move forward, and it took another half an hour to pass a place where there were a lot of traces of the Dragon City team resting.

"Going forward, it is the real high-risk area." Su Xia paused, "You drink all the antidotes, there is no need to save, I have a lot of medicines here."

"Ok!"

Sun Lang and Chang Rufeng trusted Su Xia very much, so they immediately took out the medicine and gulped it down.

The jungle ahead is so dense that it is almost impossible to find a place to stay. There are umbrella-shaped canopies of towering trees on top, and shrubs and dead vines crowded together in a pile below.

Su Xia's mech was in front, and the left and right modules of the mechanical arm each popped out two sharp blades, opened and closed, raised and lowered the knife, and forcibly cut a path.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

When the blade passed by, the juice splashed, and the poisonous withered vines were broken into pieces.

Not long ago, members of the Dragon City team also passed here.

They have the advantage of exoskeleton armor, but also forcibly opened the way, leaving a lot of traces.

Looking at the lights of the mecha, there are many traces of being trampled and split in the bushes. Many dead branches and leaves have been stepped into the humus soil, leaving deep and shallow footprints.

The progress of the Dragon City team is not fast.

In this complex jungle area, the more people there are, the more troublesome they are, not to mention they are carrying a bunch of sick and injured.

Su Xia and his party speeded up, counting the minutes and seconds, and kept closing the distance between the two sides.

They had a rest last night, but the people in Dragon City also need to rest.

"When you find the person in Dragon City, you will get a reward of 3000 million yuan." Sun Lang was thinking, "I just don't know, is it 3000 million yuan for one person, or 3000 million yuan in total? Even if it is a total... we can each share 1000 million yuan .”

"You guy, why do you like money more and more now?"

Chang Rufeng asked him: "Don't you like adventures and travel around the mainland?"

"That being said, life is important." Sun Lang shook his head, "Now there are many visitors from other worlds on the mainland, and there are more and more variables. I have a hunch that the next war between the human race and the machine race is very close. Once the fight starts, it will definitely be a world-destroying battle."

"What does this have to do with you?"

"I have to save money and build a few doomsday fortresses, which will allow me to live safely in them for at least 20 years... At that time, even if a zombie crisis breaks out..."

The two chatted while walking, and occasionally teased each other a few words, which made the journey less boring.

Their topic is actually what many members of neutral organizations worry about.

Psionic creatures, before the intensive artillery fire, are just stronger cannon fodder, and many people are worried about the next big battle.

In order to ensure survival in the next race war, some people built hidden bunkers in deep mountains and old forests, others spent a lot of money to find isolated islands at sea, and some even directly transformed submarines.

In the future, as soon as the war starts, they will immediately hide in the vast sea, and come out to make money after the fight is over.

On Earth, such behavior is often referred to as a "doomsday episode."

But in this world, the end is a real possibility.

The time gradually came to twelve noon.

The three of them did not rest, each took out dry food, and moved forward while gnawing.

……

At the same time, Shi Sishi's team, which entered the dead jungle from another direction, is also gradually approaching the central high-risk area.

During the search for more than two days, his team also encountered a lot of problems.

Before setting off, through communication with the Dragon City headquarters, they had already considered the possible poisonous gas in the jungle, so they brought a lot of gas masks.

But all kinds of weird traps, unpredictable vines and annoying and headache sounds in the jungle made them suffer a lot.

Some people were stained with viscous vine venom, and their skin was red and swollen, and the swelling had not subsided after taking many medicines.

Some people fell into the swamp trap, and their equipment was infiltrated by sewage and silt. They were so embarrassed that they almost died.

When resting last night, they were unlucky enough to choose an area where "Song of Death" grew.

The weird sound made by this grass was not noticed at first, but soon some people had headaches, nausea, dizziness and other feelings.

"Where did these plants come from?"

"I've read a lot of books on vegetation in college, but I've never seen anything this strange."

"Could it be that they were all corroded by spiritual energy and caused mutations?"

In the team, Shi Sishi's more than ten disciples communicated with each other, and each of them had an ugly expression.

Leaving aside the personalities of these guys——

The knowledge and insights they have can indeed crush most people. In the years before the war, they were considered graduate students or even doctoral students.

And it's not a graduate student of parallel imports, it has real materials.

But when they got together, none of them could name these strange plants.

"Everyone stop, replace the filter cartridges in batches, the ones with the strongest psychic power first." Shi Sishi suddenly issued an order, and the whole team rested on the spot.

Creatures with strong psychic abilities have high physical fitness and stronger resistance to poison.

Because it is not sure which plants will release poisonous gas, in this weird jungle full of dangers, everyone faces a test every time the filter box of the gas mask is replaced.

But the filter cartridge had to be replaced.

As long as it is not changed for more than an hour, the filtration capacity will be weakened.

The night before, a member had passed out wearing a gas mask, inhaled an overdose of gas, and fell into a coma.

"Be careful, don't touch the plants here casually."

"You can collect a part of the plants that have been touched by animals as samples and go back for research."

Here, animals are the best guides.

Members of Shi Sishi's team dared to touch only what animals dared to eat.

But the deeper you went into the jungle, the fewer animals appeared, and the deadly atmosphere gradually became thicker. The dark depths of the jungle seemed like a terrifying abyss, and everyone had to move forward.

After changing the filter cartridge, Shi Sishi's team continued to move forward.

They were already cautious enough, but after walking for more than ten minutes, an accident occurred.

"what--"

Suddenly someone screamed, stepped on the air, and fell into a deep pit.

This is not a swampy area, and there are plants like "mobile traps" unexpectedly.

Moreover, at the bottom of the deep pit, there are countless upward and sharp tree roots, like deadly sharp spears.

After the unlucky member fell in, his left thigh was pierced, and blood gushed out like a spring.

"Help—help me—"

He screamed in terror and called for help at the top of his lungs, because he knew that an artery in his leg had been punctured.

If there is no treatment, he will soon go into shock due to excessive blood loss, and then die in this ghost place.

"No, save people!"

"Pay attention to the surrounding environment and don't move around!"

Everyone in the team took action, some entered the deep pit for rescue, and some took out various medical equipment.

Others used flashlights to illuminate the environment inside the pit.

After seeing the bottom of the deep pit, many people took a deep breath.

Underneath, there are densely packed skeletons, the number of which is countless, and I don't know how many layers have been stacked, and the sharp roots that stand upright make the scalp numb.

"What the hell kind of plant is this?"

"There are cases in the book where psychics can mutate plants, but they are all isolated cases. It is impossible to be as dense as this forest!"

Saving people is the most important thing right now, and no matter how many questions you have, you can only wait for later analysis.

Fortunately, the rescue team brought enough medical supplies, even a few operations in the wild would be fine.

It didn't take long for the team members to work together to rescue the man.

After treatment, the man's life and left leg can be saved, and his actions will not be affected in the future. This is hardly good news.

"call……"

The few people in charge of the treatment breathed a sigh of relief.

But there was no joy on the faces of the rest of the people.

There are more and more dangers in the depths of the jungle, and they have also cut off contact with the outside world, knowing nothing about the Dragon City headquarters and the joint camp.

What if the Dragon City team is out of trouble, but they haven't received the news?

The various difficulties, difficulties, pains, etc. in the past two days have made many members think of returning along the road.

"Master, shall we... take a break first?"

As a representative of many resistance organizations in the joint camp, Ms. Liu Ye had no choice but to stand up and ask Shi Sishi with worry on her brows.

Shi Sishi glanced at the injured member, nodded, his expression indifferent.

"Well, take a break and move on."
