Chapter 531: Sharpening the Spear in Battle
"Ayakui, can your telepathic ability detect the intensity of radiation in your environment?" Qi Lin suddenly asked.
"I can detect a little, what's wrong?" Ayakui glanced at Qi Lin with some puzzlement.
"Grinding guns in battle, not fast and light." Qi Lin said.
Now that the two of them have lost their mecha and must walk through Tunnel Zero, with Qi Lin's current ability as a two-level evolutionary, it is likely that not only will they not be able to help Ayakui, but they may also drag her back, so Qi Lin must find a way to improve his strength in a short period of time.
According to the original plan, the increase in strength should be carried out at the No. 1 Energy Reactor, but the appearance of Cheng Mu and Aya Aoi completely disrupted Qi Lin's plan, causing him to be forced to leave the industrial area without access to radiant energy.
“…… I don't know what you're going to do, but I can try, but the farthest range of my mind is only 300 meters, and I don't know if I can find what you're looking for at 300 meters. After saying that, Ayakui closed her eyes, and Qi Lin only felt a circle of invisible ripples centered on her, quickly spreading.
"Found it, one hundred and forty meters in front of you, where the radiation reaction is the strongest." Ayakui suddenly opened her eyes and said.
"One hundred and forty meters ahead?" Qi Lin hurriedly ran to the window, wiped the window covered with dust and stains, and looked straight ahead.
One hundred and forty meters away, there is just erected a column used to support the dome of underground space, which is a concrete load-bearing column with a diameter of nearly 100 meters, and there are a large number of metal components on the surface of the load-bearing column.
That's heat dissipation.
This is a hollow load-bearing column, and inside this load-bearing column, there should be a small emergency reactor hidden!
What Qi Lin needs is the kind of "spent fuel" that has already entered the reactor for reaction, and a brand new fuel rod itself does not have much radiation, because the uranium-235 in it is in a very stable state, far from reaching the critical point of nuclear fission.
But in the reactor, the neutron source is ignited, and the neutrons will bombard the nuclei of the uranium atoms at a very high speed, thus triggering fission, and the large amount of heat generated by the fission chain reaction is the source of the energy of the nuclear power plant.
During the fission process, not only a large amount of heat is released, but also a large number of uranium-235 fission children with a very short half-life are generated, which will emit neutrons and gamma rays to the surrounding area, which is the origin of nuclear radiation.
In fact, the energy used by human nuclear reactors is only heat as a by-product of fission reactions.
Qi Lin himself had no way to bombard the uranium nuclei in the fuel rods, so if he wanted to obtain enough radiation energy, there were only two ways: one was to accelerate the fission of uranium ore through the "catalyst" secreted by the energy phage; The second is the use of man-made nuclear waste and radioactive contamination left over from the war.
The radioactive contaminated areas are basically on the surface, and if Qi Lin wants to obtain a large amount of radiation in the shelter, the only way is to find the waste of the nuclear power plant.
Although the radiant energy carried in the spent fuel rod is not as good as that of pure energy crystals, the energy gap between the second level to the third level and the fourth level to the fifth level is also very different, according to Qi Lin's own estimates, a good thing like a pure energy crystal, now it is estimated that as long as there are one or two, he can break through the current level.
"Gotta find a way to get to that load-bearing pillar." Qi Lin checked his equipment, except for a Tokarev pistol and a mutilated military dagger, he didn't have any weapons by his side now, as for Ayakui, she had just regained a little mental strength and used it all to search for the location of the radiation source.
The current combat effectiveness of the two of them can be said to be at the lowest level of entering the 909th Vault.
The "Energy Angel No. 3 Machine" on the street has been completely scrapped, although Qi Lin and Aya Aoi have left the mecha, but the snipers on the other side seem to be worried that Qi Lin will run back into the mecha, and after just one minute, dozens of shots were fired at the mecha from all angles, completely destroying the important parts and weapon systems of the mecha.
The smoke at the intersection had gradually thinned, and it could be vaguely seen that behind the smoke there were several groups of soldiers trotting towards this side, and if Qi Lin wanted to go to the load-bearing pillar, he would have to cross the street in front of him, which was more than twenty meters wide.
"Ayakui, you just hide here, I'll go back when I go...... If I don't come back within twenty minutes, you'll find a way to get out on your own. After Qi Lin finished speaking, he directly slammed the door open and rushed out.
Now that the smoke from the explosion had not completely dissipated, Qi Lin had to seize every second
"Bump Bump!!"
Not long after Qi Lin rushed out, those soldiers had already discovered his traces through the smoke, and suddenly the gunfire was loud, and countless bullets pierced through the smoke and came straight towards Qi Lin.
Even if the vision is blocked, but it can't stand the many people and guns on the opposite side, the street is so wide, even if it is a random sweep, there will always be a few bullets that will collide with Qi Lin.
Qi Lin crawled to the back of the abandoned mecha, and those flying bullets kept hitting the mecha, making a crisp sound, at this distance, Qi Lin's only pistol could not pose any threat to those soldiers, and could only be beaten blindly.
The weapons on the mecha have all been destroyed by anti-materiel sniper rifles, and the only thing to be thankful for is that there are no snipers in this direction where Qi Lin is hiding, otherwise, he will really be embattled.
The mecha stopped in the middle of the street, and there was still a distance of about ten meters from the other side of the street, but it was this ten meter distance that had been completely blocked by the other party with firepower, and the bullets were pouring wildly as if they didn't want money, no matter how fast Qi Lin's speed was, he would inevitably be beaten into a sieve when he passed through this ten meter space.
Qi Lin's target kept scanning around, and suddenly, he noticed that not far behind the mecha, there was a sewage ditch that crossed the street!
The side of the drain is covered with a metal fence-like cover that stretches from one block to the other side, and the width of the drain is just enough to accommodate a not very burly person.
Qi Lin immediately ran over, pried up a section of the cover with a dagger, and then plunged into the sewage ditch
It was full of black sludge and turbid sewage, and there were all kinds of domestic garbage mixed in the mud, not to mention the smell, but this disgusting sewage ditch was a dead end for those soldiers to shoot, no one's bullets could turn, and no one could hit Qi Lin who was crawling in the sewage ditch. 2k reading web
