Volume 3 The Hundred Sons of the Earth Chapter 81 The Misty Swamp (I)
The lake is bright and the water is colorful, and the trees are green and the gulls are flying. The early morning sun shines through the forest, gilding the newly awakened forest with a layer of vibrant color. From above, the dense forest is golden in the sun. The water that emerges from the forest space is turquoise and stretches as far as the eye can see. Near the lake is a stone shore, which is either mixed with green or blue, and has no color of its own. A little farther away, between the black and green trees and the turquoise waters, is a white sandy shore.
After more than five months, returning here again made Trist feel something different. There are almost no traces of the past on the ground, and the sunshine in September has a hint of autumn depression compared to the sunshine of March and April at the time of landing.
Tethered his horses, Trist came to a mountain, where he had sealed the hole with rocks and hid the equipment he had taken with him when he landed on a missile, and by a few months the moss had completely covered the rocks, and it was no wonder that the mountain patrols could not find it. It is worthy of space alloy material, the shell of the missile is not damaged at all, there is not a trace of rust, and in the package on the other side are telescopes and mechanical tools that have been brought down from the ark.
Opening the bottom of the package, a trace of sadness flashed in the boy's pale gray eyes, the watch left by Bob's father was still "clicking", next to the watch was a pen given by Dr. Sinclair, a telescope given by Uncle Parker after the end of the physical training course, and at the bottom was the cotton clothes that his mother knitted for her twin sons on Trist's birthday last year. Vivien, Luther, Alex, Eric, Sabaton...... Faces slipped through his mind with laughter and tears, and Trist's eyes were full of determination as he lost the confusion he had felt when he landed five months ago. Trist packed his luggage, wrapped it in a parachute canvas and tied it to his horse, and continued north.
"This is F09, this is F09", Trist had just left, the leaves were shaking among the trees, and a figure wearing a protective suit and holding an infrared telescope showed his head. Since the last time the mountain people picked up Trist's lost batons, at the request of President Wallace, they have stepped up patrols in this area, and they have not found anyone for more than four months, and they are ready to give up, but today they found the figure of outsiders.
The experienced patrolman had been observing Trist for a long time, and from the moment the little boy skillfully used the mechanic tools in the package to disassemble the missile bay, the patrolman realized that the boy in front of him was not an ordinary tribesman, and it seemed that President Wallace's speculation was correct, and the space station in outer space had survivors like them, and it had successfully landed. Coupled with the missile with an obvious appearance, this also explains the reason why the meteorological mountain base found something landing that day, and searched carefully but found nothing, this kid, he actually... Dare to sit back to Earth with a missile!
Of course, the patrol from the Meteorological Mountain base was also puzzled, the teenager he observed was not wearing a protective suit! What does this mean? This means that this teenager can withstand radiation from the ground! The fact that the terrestrial tribesmen can withstand radiation is the result of the evolution of terrestrial humans (the conjecture of the meteorological mountain base), but how did the young man in front of him, who was obviously not a tribal, do it? Is he the only one who can do it, or can those in outer space do it? Everything in front of him shocked his cognition, and the experienced patrol members turned on the headset again and again, while thinking about whether to follow the young man in front of him before he went far, control him, and bring him back to the base?
But the next second he didn't have to think about these questions anymore, and an arrow pierced through his protective suit and pierced his neck at the same time...... Perhaps he should have rejoiced that the arrow had taken his life so that he would not have to suffer the radiation damage caused by the leakage of his suit. "This is the base, sergeant, please report your findings! Sergeant, please report your findings! An inquiry from the headquarters of the Meteorological Mountain Base came from the headset, but the bureau's gradually cold body could no longer answer any questions......
After a long time, after making sure that there was no one else around, a warrior from the Ice Nation emerged from a pile of rocks farther away. This is a tall and burly man, he wears the characteristic costume of the Ice Country, but his face is not painted with the white war tattoos characteristic of the Ice Country, and his age is between twenty and thirty years old, and the reason why he says this is because the vicissitudes of his face make it impossible to distinguish his age at once. The mountainman patrol had observed Trist for a long time, and he had observed the mountainman patrol for a long time.
He knew that the mountain people had a special equipment (infrared sensing device) that could sense the presence of people nearby, which was also the lesson of the Ice Nation warriors after countless failed ambushes at the Meteorological Mountain base of the 'Black Dar'. Therefore, this time he specially squatted on the farther hillside, condescendingly and motionless for seven days, and finally made a gain today. The mountain man killed his best friend, attacked the camp in Silvermoon Bay with "heavenly fire", and burned to death more than 6,000 soldiers in the Ice Country, he only had the idea of revenge in his heart during this time, but unfortunately the mountain man's base was heavily guarded, and there were also mountain people's domesticated "life seeker" patrols nearby, it was difficult to succeed, and he could only try his luck in the nearby woods.
The warrior of the Ice Nation slowly walked into the remains of the Mountain Man Patrol, his lips moving slightly, "Le sang paie". Without hesitation, he removed the radiation protection suits of the mountain people, confiscated the mist that looked like iron rods, but could continue to breathe fire, and the small boxes that allowed people to see farther, and kicked the corpses on the side that were quickly corroded by the air due to the radiation and were riddled with holes. Positioning chips are implanted in the bodies of the mountain people, and the meteorological mountain base can quickly determine the location of teammates, which these tribesmen do not know. But every time they ambushed, and sometimes even killed each other in an instant, these "black das" could quickly support, and after the lesson of blood, the tribesmen, especially those in the Ice Country, basically guessed that the mountain people could locate each other.
The warriors of the Ice Nation had long heard the story of the ambush of the Mountain People from their elders, and the Queen of the Ice Nation also had two sets of captured Mountain Man radiation suits, but when the Mountain People were vigilant and replaced most of their attendance with domesticated "life seekers", the Ice Nation never succeeded in ambushing them again. The warrior of the Ice Nation prepared to evacuate after collecting his equipment according to the experience of his elders, while looking suspiciously in the direction of Trist's departure.
He could naturally see that the mountain man was following Trist, but because Trist's position was so far away from him, he didn't see what Trist was doing at all, so that he caught the attention of the mountain man sentry. At the same time, the direction in which Trist left was obviously a misty swamp, a dangerous and harsh environment, and a forbidden area recognized by the tribesmen and even the mountain people, which made the warrior even more confused, and he decided to follow and take a look.
Unbeknownst to the departing Trist, a warrior from the Ice Nation had inadvertently helped him......
。。。。。。
Seven hours later.
The door to the conference room at the Meteorological Hill base was pushed open again, and Lieutenant Locke reported with a somewhat solemn face, "We have lost another compatriot, and an hour after he went missing, the patrol found his body in the F09 area according to the positioning chip......"
President Wallace's pale brow furrowed, instinctively sensing a hint of danger.
"It's Arrow! Caused by the weapons of the tribesmen! Dr. Haru, dressed in a white lab coat, had just examined the body, and at the same time handed the autopsy report to the old president, "The marks on his body, including the traces of radiation burns and abrasions, were caused after death, and the fatal wound was an arrow wound in the neck, and a fatal blow was a blow." ”
William, who had not yet dispersed on the side, slammed the table hard, this was the first time that the guard had suffered a loss of personnel except for the time when the tribesmen besieged the base eight years ago, but he finally did not lose his mind, and he put forward his opinion to his father on the main seat on the side: "It's the land of ice!" It has to be them! There are only their tribes near the F09 area, and it seems that last month we killed their emissaries and bombed their camp, and they were deliberately demonstrating against us! ”
"Blood debt and blood payment!" , as if provoked by the tragic death of his comrades, Lieutenant Locke answered: "We fire one more missile at their city!" ”
The old president got up and turned around a few times, looking at the eager gaze of his son William in the conference room, but finally did not agree.
