Chapter 232: Support
When I got closer, I realized that it was not the street lamps that were glowing on both sides of the road, but the minerals that would glow.
They are arranged in a neat manner, apparently deliberately by someone, and also serve as illumination.
The lighted road stretched forward for about a kilometer, and the ends were also lined with glowing ores.
"Is it to prevent someone from falling?" The legend asked, standing on the edge of the road, looking at the endless cracks in the abyss in front of him.
"Maybe." I replied absent-mindedly.
The darkness on the other side seemed to be a light-absorbing beast, and the flashlight was as illuminated as if it had not been illuminated.
"Down there?" Legend has it that he shot a flashlight into the abyss beneath his feet, but nothing came of it.
Today, when human beings are spread all over the world, there are still many areas in the world that are difficult to set foot in.
For now, Wu Nian and the investigation team can only go to the abyss at the bottom of their feet.
Human activity leaves traces, and we first look for clues such as footprints or strangulation marks in the vicinity.
"There are footprints." The legend tapped the tip of his shoe on the ground, and continued: "But strangely, the footprints suddenly disappeared, and there was no trace of continuing downward." ”
She shook the ground at the edge of the crack with her flashlight, and crouched down to shine a light on the vertical face of the rock wall.
"If they had climbed down with a rope, there would have been footprints or trampling marks on the side, but now there is nothing."
As she said, there was no trace of being trampled on the rock wall.
"Unless they're flying." She stood up and said helplessly.
Suddenly, a strong gust of air rushed up from below, and it was said that a center of gravity was unstable, and it was about to be planted into the abyss.
Sanjiu immediately threw out the whip-shaped belt and pulled her to safety.
"They're not down there." Sanjiu withdrew his belt and said firmly.
"Oh?" Legend has it that he just picked up a life, but he put on an expression that he wanted to hear about it like no one else.
"The upward air flow is too strong, and several strands are staggered together, and people can't go down to the bottom at all." Sanjiu explained.
His words plunged me and the legend into a moment of contemplation, there was nothing to hold the rope to the edge of the crack in the earth's surface. If the strong air currents below swelled every once in a while, the human body would indeed not be able to withstand it.
As we pondered, Sanjiu picked up a stone from the side of the road and threw it at the darkness in front of us.
I thought he wanted to try the same method used in the White Forest. See if the space in front of you can levitate objects.
Unfortunately, the result was disappointing, the stone fell into the abyss and disappeared, and not even the sound of landing could be heard.
"Snow baby!" Someone called my name in the dark.
I turned around to look for prestige, and the people who came were Lei Ming and Big K, and Lei Ming was wearing a combat uniform. The big K wears a knee-high cloak.
"Why are you here?" I asked in surprise.
"Support you." Lei Ming still doesn't like to talk, but he can see from his face that he is also happy.
"Is Big K okay?" I asked about the big K who was right behind him.
"Only recognize me." Lei Ming's tone was a little helpless.
Big K's coolness is still there, but his eyes are not as sharp as before, and he can't see anything unusual when he has a straight face and doesn't speak.
Of course, it would be better if he could control the bulge hidden under the cloak and the back shaking!
They can get here, it must have been approved by the above, as for whether they cooperated with Bai Rui or joined the regular army, I didn't ask in detail.
After briefly introducing the preliminary examination results, Lei Ming patted Big K on the shoulder. Refers to the dark space in front of the rift.
Big K nodded, and Thunder unfastened his cloak for him, a pair of snow-white wings stretched out in exchange for a loud whistle.
Big K stared blankly at the legend whistling at him, his expression very confused.
The corners of Lei Ming's mouth twitched, but he tried to maintain a serious face, patting Big K's arm as if to comfort him.
"Don't do anything superfluous to get his attention." The thunderous reminder was a little wary.
Legend has it that with her arms behind her back and her lips pursed, she proved that she would not do anything.
Big K excludes interference. Spread his wings and fly into the dark and deep space, at first the flashlight could keep up, and then he could only watch him disappear into the darkness.
All we can do is wait, but when we wait, the legend is unwilling to be lonely and come to Thunder. Without any scruples, he asked:
"Is that buddy born or acquired? Just the wings! ”
Thunder moved to the side of the empty space, quite mindful of the uninvited legend.
"Hey, I'm not malicious, just ask." Legend has it that I have already learned about her free and easy energy, but Lei Ming does not eat her at all.
"I know a doctor who specializes in incurable diseases. Cure all kinds of acquired genetic mutations, you-"
"I warn you." Lei Ming finally spoke: "Don't beat him. ”
The legend was about to defend himself when he was interrupted by a humming sound from the depths of the dark space.
A white dot emerges from the darkness and staggers towards us.
"Something is chasing him!" Sanjiu had excellent eyesight, and he took the lead in raising his gun to aim at a certain point in the darkness.
From aiming to firing, he was so fast that I didn't have time to see the process.
The automatic rifle that Bai Rui wore to the investigation team had an effective range of 400 meters, and it was still very lethal when it was used by Sanjiu on a target a kilometer away.
The cry of the black shadow that fell from the shot was undoubtedly human, no wonder there was no trace of rope left on the edge of the crack, it turned out that the person who came in before was flying!
One shot shot at 39, shooting down the four flyers who were chasing behind Big K into the abyss, Big K staggered back to us, Lei Ming caught him, and found that he had several wounds on his wings that were bleeding.
A long, dull siren echoed in the deep and vast space, and a large number of red and blue lights suddenly lit up.
They form large circular platforms that float in the darkness of the void.
"God, it's a ...... Apron?! The legend cried out.
"Get out!" Sanjiu immediately gave an order.
But it won't be long before the black shadows that take off and rush from the huge suspended platform will catch up with us, and who will make them have more pairs of wings?
"It's too late, fight!" I stopped my steps and released all the corpses.
Legend has it that he pulled out a lightweight repeating bow from his backpack, but the head of each arrow was round.
There were definitely three hundred black shadows that struck us, and they had a pair of black fleshy wings on their backs, metal armor on their heads, and their claws exuding cold air like steel hooks.
The scene seems to go back to the moment when S City was besieged by giant bats, but Sanjiu and I are no longer what they used to be.
The corpses surrounded me, forming a protective net, and the threads of death cut through the gaps between them, entangling all creatures who wanted to get close.
Ancient genetic modification has also given Deathline a new skill, and now it can not only make living creatures die, but also make them into nutrients for me to absorb. (To be continued.) )
