Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

Now, there are traces of other people in this deserted land. No matter who is left behind, it is right to chase them.

If that person is the Candle Knight, the two of them can meet here. If it is someone else whose identity is unknown... wouldn't it be better?Just in time to catch him and ask about the situation here.

Even the representatives of Rheinland Life couldn't tell where their experimental data were placed, and someone else came to this insignificant place, perhaps for the data that Rheinland Life valued.

"Get ready for battle."

Without Provence's reminder, everyone in the team knew what they were going to face next.

Elena, who lacked combat experience, squeezed her short staff nervously and subconsciously leaned towards Xingji.

At this time, it was her sister's side that could bring her a sense of security.

"Great, I finally don't have to do these boring things!"

Upon hearing the captain's announcement that he was ready to fight, Huang immediately cheered and dropped the 'sweeper' control lever in his hand.

Controlling this thing was really troublesome and laborious. Huang had long felt a little impatient. Unfortunately, the first batch of teams sent by Rhodes Island had fewer people. She really could only do this most troublesome task.

After all, Huang is really of no use in situations other than combat.

Now, it's finally time for her to show off her skills.

Huang untied the large box behind him and took out a chainsaw that was half a man tall and extremely ferocious in shape.

The sharp saw teeth reflected the cold light. Huang tried to activate this special weapon. The dense saw teeth immediately spun rapidly, and amidst the screams that tore through the air, a frightening afterimage was created. .

Compared with swords with simple structures, chainsaws are indeed easier to damage, but if it is used as a deterrent... no one will be willing to touch the thing in Huang's hand.

"Stop messing with your chainsaw and catch up quickly."

Glancing back at Huang who was adjusting the chainsaw, ACE said angrily.

"Yes, yes, come right away, don't be so anxious." Huang replied cheerfully.

After checking that the operating status of the chainsaw was correct, Huang trotted all the way to the position behind the ACE side and formed a formation that the two of them had cooperated with many times.

The group soon arrived at the front of the urban plot and saw the traces of melting on the heavy alloy door.

Viviana made a ready-made gap in the door, so they didn't need to bother building a ladder to the upper level.

The only problem is that the gap opened by Viviana can only pass through tall and slender women like her. Adult men like Li Ang can't squeeze through if they turn sideways, but for a muscle like ACE, one can hold up two. For a macho man, this is somewhat overwhelming.

As a last resort, Provence had to take out a few spare Originium bombs to widen the gap.

In this way, except for some large equipment, the materials they need can be transported to the surface of Lot 21 through this gap - natural disasters only bring pollution that is difficult to clean up, even the most destructive ones It is difficult for natural disasters to completely destroy the infrastructure of urban areas.

After all, this is the precipitation of the essence of Terran civilization, so the guarantee for human survival is naturally not so easily damaged.

In fact, the substructure area inside the mobile city was originally designed to serve as a shelter to withstand the frontal impact of natural disasters when the mobile city had no time to evacuate.

It's just that now people prefer to use it to hide some shameful things.

The main target of this Rhode Island investigation is the substructure area of ​​Lot 21.

"Go this way."

Entering the interior of Lot 21 through the gate, Li Ang only felt it a little bit, and then he was familiar with the structure here.

After the rain receded, there was a very strange smell here. Fortunately, in order to resist external pollution, the protective clothing had automatically entered the internal circulation mode, and they were not bothered by the smell here.

The group of people wore special spiked boots and stepped on the crystal membrane at a slow speed. Under Li Ang's guidance, they forcibly broke through some unopenable safety doors and successfully returned to the ground.

In this process, Huang's weapon played a big role.

Li Ang also admitted that he had made a mistake and did not expect that the essence of the thing was actually a melt weapon.

Huang seems to have mastered a source of high-temperature technology, but the strength is not high. At most, it can cause severe burns to people. Compared with some spells that can melt gold and stone, it is really not powerful.

But this weapon has been greatly strengthened, or it can be said that Huang's Origin Stone skills are gathered together, and all the heat is concentrated on a thin layer of serrations.

When Huang turns on the chainsaw and uses his Origin Stone skills, it becomes an extremely powerful hot-melt cutting weapon. Cutting through a safety door is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.

Of course, an alloy door more than 20 centimeters thick is a bit too much for Huang.

Li Ang could see that the adaptability of Huang's Origin Stone skills was not high. Her blue bar was very short and she could only maintain the thermal energy burst mode for a short period of time, but this was enough for a warrior.

Why does it take another second to cut through the enemy's armor?

Back on the ground, Li Ang finally saw the dilapidated scene of the city with his own eyes.

Black translucent crystal clusters are clustered everywhere. Under the sunlight, the crystal film covering the surface of all objects reflects the shining light, which looks a bit dazzling.

If you don't take protection, you will suffer from snow blindness in a short time if you stay here. This is really a rare experience in the hot summer.

Of course, they are all wearing closed protective suits, and the ultraviolet rays cannot penetrate the eyepieces of the protective suits.

"Do you feel that something is not right here?"

While moving forward quickly, Huang suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong?" the ACE in front asked casually.

"Although I have only explored the contaminated area a few times...don't you think it's a little too quiet here? Apart from us, we can't even see a single living thing. Not to mention other things, those bugs Where have they gone? Isn’t this the environment they like best?”

The 'worms' Huang mentioned were naturally the Source Stone Worms.

This tenacious creature can live almost anywhere in the world and even change its life form according to its environment.

It's a bit similar to Haiji, but it doesn't have the abnormal evolution speed like Haiji.

But no matter what, it's not surprising to see 'high-energy stoneworms' in polluted areas. These insects are like living bombs, and it's still very troublesome to deal with them in large numbers.

It is also the most common organism in contaminated areas.

"Yes... something is indeed wrong... where are the Origin Stone Worms?"

After Huang's reminder, Provence also came back to his senses at this time.

Everything around them seemed too silent, as if the ruins had turned into a dead place and their group was the only remaining life.

Not normal, this is not normal at all.

As a messenger of natural disasters, Provence knew very well how tenacious the source stone insect was.

If we were to make a list of all the creatures that might survive a natural disaster, the Origin Stone Worm would say that it is second, and absolutely no other creature would dare to claim to be first.

A mere heavy rain would never drown the Originium Worms. Maybe in a few years, the special environment here would give birth to a new subspecies of the Originium Worms.

When I walked through the garbage sludge pile in the substructure area just now, I was not attacked by the Origin Stone Insects. No wonder Provence always felt that something was missing. Don't those insects like this environment very much?

"Knight, have you detected anything alive besides us?"

"...No, there is nothing alive within my detection range."

Li Ang shook his head and replied, "Except for a few of us and the trace we are tracking, there are no signs of any other biological activity here."

These few people... are probably the first group of people to visit this ruins in the past six months since the natural disaster struck.

Li Ang's perception has completely enveloped the entire ruins, and he did not find any signs of life.

He thought this was a normal phenomenon in natural disaster areas, so he didn't pay much attention at first, but after listening to the conversation between Huang and Provence... this situation seemed unusual?Li Ang still lacks a lot of knowledge in these side fields, but this is also very normal.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that even natural disasters cannot completely turn an area into a dead place. After half a year, the place should have regained a little bit of life.

When Li Ang further improved the accuracy of his perception and took the initiative to observe those microscopic worlds that were usually ignored, Li Ang was shocked to find that, let alone the source stone insects, the number of microorganisms here was extremely small. This was obviously something wrong. .

"... Let's speed up and catch that guy quickly."

Provence shuddered hard and lowered his voice.

Abnormally reduced radiation intensity, a dead place without any life... The vision of the ruins of Lot 21, which only revealed a scaly claw, gave Provence an extremely ominous premonition.

This almost crystallized ruins is really weird. Even Provence, which has experienced dozens of natural disasters, has never seen such an abnormal place.

If she could, she wouldn't want to stay here for even a second.

After hearing the conversation between the three of them, the others felt a sense of urgency in their hearts, and even their feet could not help but speed up a bit.

Finally, under the guidance of Li Ang, the group of them found Viviana standing on the wreckage of a scrapped truck.

"Candle Knight? Why are you here?"

Warfarin looked at the Candle Knight in front of him who had not prepared any protective measures, and shouted in astonishment.

Chapter 61 Viviana’s experience

There was neither any emotion nor any acting skills in Warfarin's voice.

It's fake, it's so fake. Li Ang on the side just wants to give Warfarin a bad review, but she doesn't even bother to pretend.

Fortunately, everyone else was disturbed by the tense atmosphere just now, and now the Candle Knight has attracted most of their attention, so they did not notice anything wrong in Warfarin's tone.

Hearing Warfarin's shout, Viviana slowly turned around and looked at the group of people below with a slight frown.

She did not recognize the identity of the group, so she also failed to discover Li Ang hiding in the group.

"Who are you?" Viviana looked a little confused.

"We are operators from Rhode Island, hired by Rhine Life to explore this ruins. Your superiors should have given you the corresponding information." Warfarin quickly explained, "But this is not the case. important."

"Candle Knight, is it really okay for you to be like this now? The radiation intensity here has exceeded 7000C."

To be honest, Warfarin was really shocked when she saw that Viviana was wearing ordinary knight armor.

In a radiation environment of this intensity, ordinary people may not survive for more than an hour. Even if they are lucky enough to survive, the chance of being infected with ore disease is 100%, and they may only survive for a while at most.

Directly exposed to excessive amounts of Originium radiation, even the blocking drugs developed by Rhode Island will have no effect.

Although she guessed that Viviana must have something to rely on for daring to do this, Warfarin couldn't help but ask one more question.

What if... this innocent-looking young lady really doesn't know what to do?If he was rescued now, it might still be too late.

"It was you."

Viviana nodded understandingly, and then turned around completely, allowing the group to see what she was holding in her left hand.

It was a small and exquisite three-branch candlestick. The three slender white candles swayed with weak firelight, illuminating Viviana's whole body.

It was obviously a candle that could be extinguished by a gust of wind, but at this moment it seemed to outshine the sunlight shining in the sky and steal everyone's attention.

"Don't worry, I can protect myself."

Viviana lowered her eyebrows and said softly.

Obviously, the three-branch candlestick in her hand is also some kind of special spell unit, used to assist Viviana in using her unique Origin Stone skills.

In Li Ang's perception, although the weak candlelight had no physical defense at all, it did continuously release energy, helping Viviana block the energy radiation from the outside world.

There are not many people who can go deep into contaminated areas without protection, and I didn't expect Viviana to be one of them.

The constellation guardians of the Star Pole... tend to be more defensive against physical attacks, absorbing only a small portion of the radiation.

However, this is just the Origin Stone skill that Xingji 'borrowed'. If the owner of this spell were to release the constellation guardian, there would definitely not be such an obvious flaw.

"So much the better."

Hearing Viviana's reply, Warfarin breathed a sigh of relief.

After thinking about it, Warfarin took out a small bottle from the tool bag she carried with her.

"This is an oriosis blocker developed in Rhode Island. I'll give it to you just in case."

Viviana did not refuse. She tapped her toes from the wreckage of the truck, landed gracefully in front of Warfarin, and took the bottle of blocker.

"Thank you." she said.

From this distance, they can more clearly see Viviana's exquisite doll-like face. Coupled with her strong strength, it is really no exaggeration for her to have so many enthusiastic fans on the intercity network. .

However, there were some people in the team who didn't care about Viviana's appearance or Origin Stone skills at all.

Elena looked at Viviana carefully up and down, her eyes resting on the candlestick and weapon in her hand the most.After a while, Elena leaned into Xingji's ear and whispered, "Sister, her style is similar to yours. Isn't this considered a matching dress?"

Zhuangshan is not terrible, whoever is ugly is embarrassed.

Although he was very confident in his sister, in this situation... Xingji was really at a disadvantage. Who told Xingji that he had to wear heavy protective clothing to move around in polluted areas?

After hearing Elena's words, even Xingji felt a little helpless for his sister's out-of-the-box thinking.

At this time, what do you care about is whether you wear a shirt or not?

"What are you talking about..."

Patting Elena's little head, Xingji said, "Jinny, aren't you the representative of Rhine Life? Don't you go over and communicate with the Candle Knight?"

Although he said this, Xingji couldn't help but look at Viviana twice.
