Chapter 43: The Parched Earth
"Make up your mind." At this time, the Attila had once again flown over the central lake of the Moon Circle. The variants below are buffered for a while. It's already starting to come together again. There were at least ten large deformed fragments in the entire lake, releasing black mist into the sky.
It seems to be even bigger than before. Luke asked Zhuo Ran, who had a solemn face. He has already set up the purification device. Just wait for Zhuo Ran to make up his mind. Then it's time to start drying the area.
However, Luke felt that Zhuo Ran would definitely agree. After all, this is the only way to eliminate alienated people. Otherwise. Even if the lake is preserved. Sooner or later, this place will be occupied by those mutants. Become a breeding ground for alienated people.
Spreading these black fogs that catalyze alienated people to the outside world. At that time, the survival of the survivors of the entire island will still be empty talk.
"Hmm." Luke's inquiry was heard. Zhuo Ran could only nod heavily. What else can he do now? I had to nod and agree. As for what to do in the days to come. Then let's think about it later. Now they are all about to be eaten up by these aliens. Where else can be taken into account.
Syllable.
"Spring rain. Do it. Luke snapped his fingers. Signal Chunyu to start the purification device directly.
glanced at Zhuo Ran. Chunyu immediately entered the startup code on the console. The bottom of the Attila began to unfold slowly. The huge purification device inside was revealed.
Huge purification unit. After the cargo hatch is opened. Immediately, it began to slowly emit a lilac light. Shrouded in a small area under the hull. Spring Rain then controlled the Attila to raise the altitude. It didn't stop until the light from the purification device completely enveloped the surface of the lake.
The next thing is to wait. Wait for these variants to dry into crumbs. Wait for the entire lake to be dried.
With this purple light shining through. The aberrants that float on the surface of the water are the first to suffer. A black and red variant. Squirming and trembling. After being illuminated by this light. Quickly begin to atrophy and dry up.
The black mist that had just been spit out was also dried instantly. There is not a trace in sight.
Zhuo Ran staring at the screen. It is also gradually seen that the serious side effects of this purification device are being seen. The trees that look luxuriant right next to the lake. At this point, the leaves are all drying up at a rate visible to the naked eye. Fall.
Some fallen leaves. It didn't even make it to the ground. When floating in mid-air. It had already shattered into pieces. By the time it hits the ground, it's already crumble. Although it's already autumn. But even if it's fallen leaves. It won't be so fast.
Large areas of fallen leaves looked as if they had been knocked down. They were scattered and shattered from the trees. Besides. The other plants on the ground near the lake also began to dry up as if they had been drained of water.
Within a few minutes, the ground plants were scattered as limply as the leaves. The plants that are shining all over the lake are illuminated by the light. All began to dry up and die. Zhuo Ran even saw the trees. Not long ago, there were just some signs of falling leaves. But now it's a piece of dead wood. The bark is also starting to fall off. Some of the tiny branches also broke off because they were dry.
The most obvious. In fact, the water level of the lake is still falling rapidly. Zhuo Ran estimated. It's just a few minutes. The surface of the lake has dropped by at least a metre away. But even so. He could still see the mutants churning beneath the water's surface.
After several deviant water surface parts were destroyed due to dryness. Quite a few of the mutants have ducked underwater. Beneath the calm surface of the lake. It was a patch of black shadows that kept writhing.
It's not the fish in the lake. It's a variant of those little pieces. It's coming together at a rapid pace. Trying to avoid this catastrophe.
But these are in vain. Luke wasn't going to let these guys go. It's a small thing that this lake is steamed. But once these mutations spread outside. The consequences are indescribable.
It's no wonder that the guys who came up with this stuff don't experiment directly on the Western continent. Because they know it too. Once these things spread out on land. The consequences are absolutely devastating.
But Moon Roundabout is different. Surrounded by water. Mutants and aliens would not dare to touch these seas at all. So I think it's very safe to release these variants here.
But Luke doesn't think so. God knows if these things will evolve. Once these things were able to overcome their previous shortcomings. I was able to move freely in the ocean and reproduced. Then the whole earth will probably suffer. Even if it's a deep-sea habitat ship. It may not be able to defeat these broken things that can multiply indefinitely.
"It's a shame." Chunyu watched the lake below, which originally looked blue, decreasing little by little. I couldn't help but sigh. But the voice was a little hoarse. It still sounds like there's some echo.
Let the next Mamiya sigh in his heart. She finally remembered why she looked at Chunyu so familiar, but a little unfamiliar. She had actually seen the spring rain of the white dew level. But at that time, the hat on Chunyu's head was white. And the uniform looks similar to Yuri Shiyu.
But it can be so similar to the spring rain. But there are some differences in the uniforms. I'm afraid there's only one way to expel Qi Ji. That's the deep sea. Why did it appear on this ship. And also as Luke's ship's mother. In addition, the part of the expulsion from the thigh down is all black. She was even more convinced of this.
That's probably the prosthetic leg that Luke made for the expulsion of Qihime. Something like Admiral Zoran's left arm.
And it seems that the deep sea in Luke's house does not seem to be the only one. I remembered the south that day when I saw it, but I didn't have any impression. There are also a few ship girls who were a little pale when I saw them during the meal. They're all deep seas.
Come to think of it. The palace subconsciously shrank back. In the same room as a deep ocean. Although there are a lot of ship mothers here. But Mamiya always felt like he didn't have too much security. And God knows this guy Luke. Over there, after all. Is he on the side of the deep sea?
Time. The palace is a little careless about looking at the following situation. The whole person sat nervously in his seat. From time to time, he turned his head to look at Zhuo Ran. Hopefully find an opportunity to tell him the news.
"It's a pity." I saw the lake below disappear little by little. Luke was also a little emotional. Want to form such a huge lake naturally. It may take many years for nature to take it.
But they did it in such a short time. Less than a day. This work of nature can be turned into a desert. I have to say. Sure enough, it's easier to destroy than to build. It's no wonder that a lot of perverts like to wreak havoc everywhere.
Over time. The level of the lake has been lowered again and again. Those places that are not covered by the lake. It's already starting to desertify. Plants like those trees have turned into dead logs.
And those herbaceous plants. But it has turned to dust and debris. There is no sign that there was ever a plant in the original location.
The mutants in the lake also began to churn violently. Trying to find a place to hide. It's a pity that there is no way to escape. Under the illumination of this light. Even the pebbles dry out and crack into pieces. Not to mention these variants.
As the water level falls. One by one, the mutants were exposed to the light. While twitching, it was dried into crumbs by the light. At the last moment of death, he did not forget to spit out a large pile of black mist. Try to be able to block out the purple light.
But all in vain. The black fog couldn't hold up even a second under this light. It's all dried and clean.
Luke was going to modify it a little more. Wait until you're done here. Take this thing with you to get rid of the black mist that has not dispersed over the Moon Ring. Just get rid of the black fog too. The survival time of those who are alienated will be greatly reduced.
After being exposed to the sun for a long time, it is even possible to die directly. Although it is not to see the light and die. But the sun's rays are also weakening these guys. The weather on this side of the Moon Island is good. If nothing else. These aliens are automatically purified within a few days.
See the bottom of the lake gradually emerging below. The lake is about to dry up. Zhuo Ran couldn't help but feel distressed. The central lake of the Moon Ring Island. It was dried in such a short time.
"Luke. This. That's all there is left of the lake. There shouldn't be any problems. "If only there was some water left in the lake. Maybe we can get it back to the way it was before. But it's going to be a very long-term thing.
"Hmm." Luke raised an eyebrow. The mutants are incapacitated, though. Most of them go with the flow. But there is still a small patch of water left. God knows if there are any remaining variants in there. Luke wasn't going to leave anything to chance. The safest way is to dry the rest of the lake.
Seeing Luke just glanced at him. Without saying anything, he turned his head away from him. Zhuo Ran could only sigh dejectedly. Looking at the sandy ground below, I was worried.
Right now. The palace took advantage of the fact that Chunyu and Luke didn't have the opportunity to look at this side. Quietly walked to Zhuo Ran's side. Pulled the corners of Zhuo Ran's clothes. leaned over to Zhuo Ran and whispered to him......
I heard what Mamiya said. Zhuo Ran was immediately shocked. Looking at Luke, his gaze was a little different.
