Chapter 195: The Lighthouse
Those who have seen Ultraman must have been impressed by the huge monsters inside. The sudden appearance of this giant devourer has the sense of an Ultraman monster.
It's too big!
Such a huge size means that it has far more strength and defense than the snake dog, and may have evolved some special attack methods, with Ling Bai's current strength, there is no chance of winning against this big guy, whether it can escape or not is still two words.
Narrowly avoiding the burial of the dirt, Mark saw the giant devourer turn its body and make an attack stance, and shouted urgently, "Quick, speed up." ”
Boom, the bridge across the cliff was smashed by the giant Pole Eater, and the mud and rocks flew sideways, raining down on the rift.
The obstruction of the bridge caused the giant Pole Eater's body to pause, and Transport Vehicle No. 2, Mark and the others accelerated violently, gradually widening the distance between the giant Pole Eater.
The prey that came to its mouth ran away, and the giant devourer seemed to be quite angry, as if its big mouth that could devour everything suddenly opened and let out a huge roar.
The sound wave was long-lasting and loud, like a strong wind sweeping across the four fields, flying sand and rocks, and several snakes and dogs were blown away. And when it came to Ling Bai and them, it was a different feeling.
"It's ...... Psychic attack? ”
Ling Bai was shocked, and hurriedly used the Xuantian Gong's internal force to close his hearing sense, sticking to his mind, and the feeling of headache and nausea slowly disappeared.
He has internal strength to protect himself, and he is naturally unharmed. Erica and Mark were more miserable, moaning in pain from their mouths, and the heavy stereo they were driving almost lost control and crashed into a cliff.
Fortunately, the distance between everyone and the giant Pole Eater is relatively far, and the transport vehicle and the heavy three-dimensional have been advancing, constantly widening the distance between the two sides, so that the sonic attack effect of the giant Pole Eater is slowly weakening, otherwise everyone will have to explain this roar here.
The roar continued, but strangely, the giant Eater just stood there and roared, not chasing them.
Ling Bai turned his head to look, and his eyes suddenly froze.
I saw that on the back of the giant devourer, there was a silver-haired girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, her figure was slender and slender, the legs exposed under the shorts were soft, straight and slender, and her white fur-collared clothes fluttered in the wind. It was as if the Queen of the Extreme Devouring Beasts was high above, calmly watching Ling Bai and them go away.
"Who is she?" A whisper full of shock came into his ears, Ling Bai followed the voice, and Mark also looked at him. There was a deep look of confusion in their eyes.
It has been twenty years since the lighthouse found a human survivor on the ground. In the lighthouse's ecological research report, it has been determined that the ground is not suitable for human life, and there is no human life anymore.
Now, they saw a human standing on top of the Eater, and the Eater had no intention of attacking at all. This scene turned Mark's perception upside down.
Ling Bai was also very curious about her identity and origin, and mentioned in the original episode that she had saved the current city lord Morgan and climbed the lighthouse. That was more than 30 years ago, and after so many years, she didn't get old at all, she was still eighteen or nineteen years old. The most amazing thing is that she seems to be able to control the Extreme Eater.
Intuition told Ling Bai that this woman must know a lot about Mana's ecology, and even knew how to kill the Extreme Eater, if it wasn't for the wrong timing, Ling Bai would have wanted to talk to her.
The silver-haired girl looked at it for a while, then turned away, leaving behind a moving back that evoked reverie.
After a while, Ling Bai and the others caught up with the No. 1 transport vehicle in front of them and the air-dropped armored vehicle in which the hunter warriors were riding, and returned to the lighthouse more than 160 kilometers away together.
A few decades ago, the phases of the moon changed and caused a drastic geological change, which caused a devastating blow to mankind. A floating fortress survived due to its peculiarities and became the last home of mankind. This floating fortress was the predecessor of the lighthouse.
Viewed from the ground, the lighthouse resembles a giant hydrogen balloon floating at an altitude of 1,900 meters, and a large umbrella. The top curved surface is covered with solar panels, shimmering in the sun.
"Turn on the ES01 lifting platform."
"Yes."
A lighthouse worker pulled down the power switch, the restraint device of the lifting platform was automatically released, and then the motor was running, driving the ratchet, and several high-strength steel cables hung the lifting platform and slowly fell to the ground.
The lifting platform ES01 is a common access point for the lighthouse to the ground and back from the ground. Ling Bai will return to the lighthouse with the help of the lifting platform.
The lighthouse is very large, and the old world can build such a huge floating fortress and let it float in the air, both in terms of engineering ability and technological level, it has reached unimaginable heights. At least Ling Bai couldn't do it in the world before he crossed over.
As soon as the lifting platform docked with the lighthouse cabin, several medical personnel wearing biochemical suits came over to 'purify'.
The so-called purification is actually to check whether everyone is infected with fishy cardia, and to spray drugs to reduce the carrying content of fishy carrysophyl in the human body.
At present, there is no medical treatment for fishy worm disease in the lighthouse, and all human beings who are infected with fishy worm disease will eventually turn into flesh and soil.
After the decontamination is completed, the convoy enters the outer ring lane. The roadside and buildings on both sides of the driveway were full of people, dustmen and monks, waving and cheering to the returning hunters.
Erica enjoyed the excitement, standing on the roof of the car and waving at the people on the side of the road. Ling Bai and Jeff, who were sitting next to her, looked at each other.
Jeff laughed, "When she's been a wilderness hunter for a few years, she won't have this enthusiasm." It's you, a new hunter, who isn't at all thrilled to see so many people cheering for you. ”
Ling Bai shrugged, "I'm excited, but I'm more restrained." ”
"It's good to be introverted, save like Erica who hasn't seen the world......"
"Jeff. Who you say hasn't seen the world? Erica asked with her hands on her waist and puffing out.
"I didn't say you."
"I hear it all."
"I heard it and asked."
Listening to the two bickering, Ling Bai couldn't help but smile, and his eyes looked at the nearby dust-dwelling area.
Stolen, chaotic, poor, this is the impression that the dusty residential area gives Ling Bai.
Due to their innate genetic defects, the incidence of hereditary diseases and genetic diseases is higher than that of the genetically excellent Shangmin, and the resistance to the fishy carrot is generally not as good as that of the Shangmin, so they are human beings abandoned by the lighthouse. Even some of the people don't treat them as human beings at all.
The dust people have no name, only a four-digit number. Without medical authority and breeding authority, he can only do the heaviest work for the rest of his life, without any upward channel. The food they eat is the lowest, and the places they live in are in the worst conditions, which is in stark contrast to the glamorous people, like two classes.
Ling Bai didn't understand Morgan's approach too much, since he believed that the dust people were human beings who would be eliminated by the apocalypse, why not just be ruthless.
Since they are left behind, it is a living life, and every life deserves respect, and deliberately creating discrimination and oppression will only intensify the contradictions and cause dissatisfaction and resistance among the people. It can also be seen from the original episode that the dust people are already seriously dissatisfied with the lighthouse law.
Genes determine a person's value and destiny, and no one dares to agree with it, nor should it. This would break the fairness that humanity has been striving for.
The spirit cage world is a post-apocalyptic world, and it is understandable that doomsday humans have taken some drastic actions in order to continue, but now that the lighthouse has entered stability, are the concepts and ideas of the past applicable to this day?
Ling Bai felt that if he wanted to lead the lighthouse to counterattack the Extreme Devouring Beast, he was afraid that he would first have to solve the contradictions within the lighthouse. Only when the basic situation is stable can we rest assured that we can expand outward.
