Chapter 555: Rats and Smoke
Exactly, what's going on?
There was a deep confusion in Luo's eyes, and the afterglow of the fire reflected on his eyes, and suddenly there was a maggot-like shadow writhing, flashing away, but Luo didn't notice it.
Dongba and Bruna were sleeping, the black cat was sitting motionless at the exit, and after Luo woke up, Bisiji, who continued the previous dream, did not send a concerned inquiry, just like Dongba and them, they were sleeping.
Luo lowered his head slightly, looking at the sparkling fire, his eyes trembling slightly.
Is it a dream, or is it a dream within a dream, and why do you remember both dreams so clearly, like part of a memory?
Every touch was too real, every detail was too clear, so clear that Luo suddenly realized that there must be something wrong, and then thought of the abilities of some strange creatures in the Dark Continent.
The most terrifying feature of the Dark Continent is the super-gigantic nature of the creatures and environment, in contrast, humans have become smaller than ants here, so it is difficult for humans to carve out a home in the Dark Continent.
In addition to the enormity of living beings and the harshness of the environment, there are many unknown beings with normal size, or even smaller than humans.
Those existences, which have been described one-sidedly in Higashi's books, are different from the destructive power of huge creatures, they have strange and incomprehensible abilities, and are hailed as disasters by V5, which sounds like a pompous metaphor, but is actually the closest description.
The reason why V5 has not gone to the Dark Continent to plunder those known precious resources is because he is afraid of those catastrophic abilities that can cause the destruction of mankind.
After more than 100 sailing and landing operations, how many humans died, only to bring back only five samples that had been damaged by the [disaster].
A patient who cannot be called an immortal disease of man has been sucking his own blood for fifty years to feed himself.
Human corpses that have been twisted into hemp ropes, human corpses that have been crushed into a dry flat shape, human corpses that have been decapitated by ancient weapons such as gold and silver ingots...
The five catastrophe samples found could not be processed, so they had to be sealed in a research room underground.
It has been many years, and countless manpower and energy have been spent, but there is still no way to find a solution.
That is a near-insoluble catastrophe, and an insoluble obstacle to humanity's journey to the new world.
Luo suspected that he should have unknowingly fallen into some kind of calamity, so he was trapped in a dream comparable to reality.
Thinking of this, Luo suddenly glanced at his companions, and a deep worry surged in his heart, and when he couldn't figure out his current situation, he couldn't be sure what kind of situation Bisiji and the others were in.
He was silent, then looked at the hole in the tree, releasing the circle.
The circle of thought with weak boundaries passed through the people in the tree hole, and quickly swung out in all directions, expanding to a range of eight hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
The fluctuation of the circle touched the perceptive Bisji, causing her to wake up immediately from her slumber.
She looked at Luo who released the circle, and did not question immediately.
"What... Nor did it. ”
What was detected was all motionless dead objects, the same as in the first and second dreams.
So, is it a dream now? Leaving the tree hole and going in the same direction about five kilometers, will there be some strange things again?
"What's wrong?" said Bisgi.
"It's okay, I just woke up, and I want to use the circle to probe the situation around me. Law smiled at Bisgi with an unmistakable smile, but he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
True or false, true or false?
Thinking of the long conversation with Bisji in the second dream, it made his mind turn into a ball of thread.
Damn it.
He cursed in his heart, is this a dream or reality?
Hearing Luo's words, Bisiji didn't say anything, looked at the fire that was about to burn out, and then reached out and wrapped his mind around his mind, pulled off a few pieces of wood containing water from the tree wall, and threw them at Luo.
Luo was stunned for a moment, but still raised his hand in time to catch the wooden block.
This was obviously what he was going to do next, but this time Bi Siji took a step ahead of him and tossed it to him.
Luo's heart shook, but his face was calm, silently draining the water from the wood, cutting it into flammable shapes, and finally throwing it into the fire, injecting a little oxygen to speed up the burning process.
"We came here in a hurry, and we haven't figured out what's going on in the neighborhood yet, you just used the circle, did you find anything wrong?" Bisgi looked at the fire that had rekindled the flames.
"There is no situation, it's just that there are dead things all over the 800-meter radius, not even a single bug. A flash of surprise flashed in the depths of Luo's eyes, could it be that it was because of his use of circles that the process of the dream changed again?
No, from the moment he woke up, it looked like he was back to square one, but something had changed, for example, he woke up the earliest, and Bisji was still asleep.
The only constant points are the wind and rain outside, the vigilant black cat, the sleeping Dongba and Bruna, and the fire that is about to burn out.
"Yes. Bisji had a thoughtful look on his face, and after a deep groan, he suggested: "If you are recovering well, it is best to go outside and investigate, I will guard here." ”
Luo Wenyan subconsciously clenched his fists, then quickly let go, and said with a smile: "I have this plan." ”
Bisiji nodded, raised his hands and stretched his waist, deaf eyelids, and said lazily: "I'm hungry." ”
"Uh, canned fish and sausages?" Rowe glanced at the black cat.
"That's fine. Bisgi laughed.
Luo called the black cat, took out three days' worth of food from his space, and then prepared to leave the tree hole.
Walking to the hollow of the tree, Law glanced back at Bisji, who was holding an open can in his hand.
"Stay safe. Bisgi said.
"Hmm. ”
Luo nodded, took apart the bark, went outside, and slowly sealed the bark back.
After the only gap in sight went from a line to a complete closure, the fire in the tree hole flickered, and a strange smile suddenly flashed on Bi Siji's lovely face, and a slit faintly appeared on her forehead.
Law leapt down and landed on the ground.
The field opened and was insulated from the icy rain.
This time, the black cat did not urge Luo to hurry up and find the materials, and it was as silent as wood.
Luo silently looked around, a forest of dead silence and life.
The growth of trees is abundant and vibrant, and there is no life in a radius of many meters, which is dead and silent.
"If this is a dream. ”
Luo muttered in his heart, identified the direction, and used [instant] one after another, moving at high speed.
It didn't take long for him to come to a place of about five kilometers.
Two batches of strange creatures have already been encountered, what will be this time?
What appeared in front of Luo's eyes was a gray rat about the size of a human, standing upright, with a fat body, a long pointed mouth, and two front teeth.
Luo glanced at it, and his gaze fell on the tail of the mouse.
At the end of that tail, there was a cloud of black smoke, revealing two vertical pupils and a mouth with a silent grin.
