Chapter Thirty-Eight: Target: The Great Western Continent

In Huaxi's worldview, food has always been insulated from delicacy and deliciousness.

Well, maybe those high-level executives of big companies and big forces have the ability to pursue food.

And for the vast majority of people living in this wasteland, food has never been a necessary thing to sustain life, nothing more.

For the homeless, being able to eat every day and not starve to death is already satisfying, and "being full" is even rarer.

The Revenant, as an evolutionary, is much better than the outcast, but it is also limited.

In this dangerous world, we must also risk our lives and walk in the wilderness.

Many times, in order to avoid being discovered, they dare not make a fire, so they can only nibble on frozen jerky, cakes, mixed with snow water to fill their stomachs.

Therefore, in Huaxi's dictionary, there is never a concept of "food".

Until this moment, when she was confused, her hands and feet were almost clumsy, she stiffly grabbed a ball of food, stuffed it into her mouth, and felt the warmth, and the aroma of the food sprinkled with spices exploded on her taste buds.

Her whole brain went blank for a moment.

"This ...... Is it food? Meals...... Can it be so delicious? ”

This thought came to my mind irrepressibly.

Huaxi suddenly realized that she couldn't control her hands anymore.

She didn't have the habit of using chopsticks, so she simply held the lunch box and swallowed it with a ferocious attitude, as if she was worried that if she ate slowly, she would be snatched away.

Lin Tuo specially ordered a large boxed lunch, and he had just eaten a few bites, and Huaxi was stunned that he had already begun to lick the lunch box at a low temperature of more than 20 degrees below zero.

"Hiccup!" After a few licks, he rolled his eyes and hiccuped while choking.

"You eat slowly...... Lin Tuo was stunned, but his tone was much more relaxed, he reached out and took a bottle of mineral water, handed it to her, and said, "Drink saliva, Shunshun." ”

"Thank you...... Belch! Huaxi said halfway, and then couldn't say any more, just looked at the bottle in his hand in admiration, hesitated, unscrewed it, and then drank it carefully.

The contrast between the sweet taste and the dusty snow water was so strong that she didn't dare to take a big sip.

After a few careful sips, he re-twisted it up, subconsciously wanting to stuff it into his pocket.

"What are you hiding a bottle ......of water for, what about this box," Lin Tuo said helplessly.

Then he pointed to the big bag of skewers and snacks: "I'm not full, and here's more." ”

So, a lot of new things began to appear in Huaxi's shriveled stomach pouch, a handful of meat skewers, which was bitten by this little girl and almost swallowed the skewers.

As for the snacks, she only tasted them a few bites and put them away.

Well, since the stomach is no longer hungry, it is better to keep these for food on the road.

Lin Tuo looked at it and didn't say anything.

It's Huaxi, this whole person's eyes are wrong, just staring at Lin Tuo After eating the boxed lunch, he suddenly said:

"Who the hell are you?"

The origin of these foods is really incredible, and those snacks with beautiful packaging, although the text on them is not easy to understand, are obviously very similar to the creations of the old era.

But thirty years later, except for a very small amount of food, all that remains is the packaging bag...... But these are fresh.

Also, those hot meals are even more difficult to explain, the origin is extremely suspicious, and logically, it can't be explained in any way, unless ......

"Could it be that your ability is to conjure up food out of thin air?" Huaxi suddenly asked with a serious face.

In her opinion, this may be the only possibility.

"Poof." Lin Tuo was drinking water, and he almost squirted out, but after thinking about it carefully, it really didn't matter, this seemed to be his "ability".

Screwing the bottle cap, Lin Tuo raised his face and said:

"You shouldn't know, don't ask. Okay, I've eaten the stuff, and now, it's time for you to continue answering my questions, well, if you don't want to say, then I can only ......"

"You ask, I'll say it." Without waiting for him to finish, Huaxi sighed and confessed.

Anyway, I can't resist it, let alone eat people's short mouths.

Lin Tuo was stunned, then laughed, thought about it, and said:

"As you can tell, I'm not a local, but I'm from a distant land, and I don't know much about the terroir. So...... I want to get in touch with the three forces you mentioned, where can I quickly find them? ”

"You're looking for them?" Huaxi was stunned, suppressed the urge to ask, and said seriously, "If it's usual, just go to their respective main cities, but now...... I can only go to Daxizhou. ”

Great Western ......

Hearing this term, Lin Tuo's eyes moved, and he said quietly: "Why?" ”

"Because not long ago, the radiation intensity of the Great Western Continent began to decay, and the main forces of the Burning Fire, the Gray Mountain, and the floating apocalypse all swarmed into the mountains of the Great Western Continent.

Explore the area in search of the legendary Secret Seal. ”

Huaxi explained.

"Secret Seal? Tell me about the Great West Continent in detail. Lin Tuo's expression became more serious and asked.

……

Soon, with the help of Huaxi's narration, he probably sorted out what happened.

Among the Wasteland Survivors, there has always been a legend.

That is, more than thirty years ago, the reason why the Mad Emperor was able to control the scientific researchers so smoothly and carry out the world-destroying experiment was with the help of an extraordinary artifact called the "Secret Seal".

Legend has it that the artifact was created by a "spiritual tide" that appears every few years, and has the power to influence the spirits of others.

There are even rumors that the reason why the mad emperor was able to successfully usurp the throne, establish a new dynasty, and control the government for decades also relied on this mysterious treasure.

Of course, there is no empirical evidence for this claim, but it is probably not groundless.

When the "Cataclysm" occurred, the secret seal was also buried in the western mountains along with the Mad Emperor and the entire Great Western Continent Laboratory.

And because that area was closest to the explosion, it was also the most heavily contaminated by radiation.

For thirty years, many people have tried to enter the Great Western Continent, but none of them have come back alive.

As a result, it has become a forbidden area of death in the wasteland.

It is only in recent years, as radiation contamination has decreased, that various forces have refocused their attention on the past.

In particular, not so long ago, pollution has entered a period of rapid decline.

The entire Great West Continent is no longer so dangerous, so the three major forces have mobilized the main forces and rushed to the Great West Continent, intending to dig out the forbidden area and find the secret seal.

……

"The three major forces are all worried about being found by the other party, after all, if it really has that magical power, once anyone obtains it, it will change the pattern of the wasteland.

Even a lot of evolutionaries have gone...... Moreover, taking a step back, even if you can't find the secret seal, legend has it that the Great Western Continent Laboratory has a lot of good things.

The largest production of weapons in the old era, right there.

So...... Whether it's for the sake of the secret seal or the resources there, it's impossible for the three major forces to give up ......"

"So, about a month or two ago, their main force had already entered the Great Western Continent, and they should still be exploring deeper now. If you're looking for them, it's easiest to go there, and you'll be able to meet them all at once......"

Huaxi said, suddenly sighed, and muttered:

"Originally, I got those weapons before, and I thought I'd go over and take a look."

Lin Tuo Wan'er immediately fell into deep thought.

The news brought by Huaxi did make up for some of his knowledge blind spots and understand the specifics of the incident.

The "Spirit" is supposed to be related to his act of collecting aether...... This made Lin Tuo a little crying, laughing, and a little surprised.

After all, even the Earth civilization outside the sandbox has not discovered the aether......

Well, it can't be said that after all, Lin Tuo did not carry out global collection outside the sandbox, nor did he disturb the earth's etheric environment on a large scale.

If one day, he has the ability to collect from all over the world, and naturally geoscientists will also find anomalies.

In contrast, what he cared more about was the "Secret Seal" item.

"Extraordinary power...... Associated with the Spiritual Tide...... What the hell is that? ”

Lin Tuo was curious, and even had the idea of teleporting to Daxizhou immediately, but after thinking about it, he was patient again.

Anyway, the entire sand table is under his control, and the secret seal can't escape from his hands no matter what, so there's no need to be in such a hurry.

However, Da Xizhou still has to go, and it just so happens that he has been going west, just using this distance to hunt mutated beasts and speed up the progress of quenching, killing two birds with one stone.

Having made up his mind, Lin Tuo said again:

"And last question, what exactly is your ability?"

He vaguely felt that there might be some similarity between the extraordinary abilities of the "Secret Seal" and the "abilities" of these evolutionaries themselves.

This is also the second time he has asked this question, but this time, Huaxi was briefly entangled, sighed, and confessed:

"My ability...... In fact, it is a self-healing wound...... That is, once my body is injured, it can be repaired quickly, but at the cost of depleting nutrients in my body.

So, every time I get hurt, I'm very hungry......"

"When I fought with the people from the fire company in the front, I was injured, and my body repaired itself on the way, but I was about to starve to death, so I went to the mine town to find food."

I see.

Lin Tuo's eyes were revealed, no wonder, he was still puzzled before, he was clearly being chased and killed, how could he still have the kung fu to steal food, it turned out to be the price of self-healing.

Previously, after he injured Huaxi, the reason why the opponent's recovery speed was so fast was also a reflection of this ability.

"Well, that sounds like some kind of cell proliferation ability...... I don't know if I can copy it, but if I can study it......"

Lin Tuo was a little moved, and couldn't help but think about it.

……

The two sat for a while longer, learning more details.

When the rest was almost over, Lin Tuo took Huaxi back into the car: "Eat, it's time to go on the road." ”

"Where are we going?" Huaxi, who was untied, hurriedly climbed into the car and asked.

"Click...... Boom ......" twisted the car key, the engine turned, and the entire modified car also trembled, in this rumble, Lin Tuo kicked the accelerator and responded lightly:

"Da Xizhou, we, all the way to the west!"
