Chapter 20: The Mist

In his dream, he killed countless insects and drank Wisdom with beautiful female officers, and after getting up, Wang Zhiyuan found that how to climb out of this funnel-shaped sand pit in a tank was a big problem. With the help of the mechanical arm, the mechanical arm almost burned the mechanical arm, and the sand was too soft to climb up, so he had no choice but to send Robot 5 to drag the surrounding insect corpses in and cushion them in front of the track.

He also used a mechanical arm to pull out most of the dead insect corpses and spread them in front of the tank for compaction. The tank track stirred the worm sauce, and there was a curry creaking sound, and I finally climbed out of the sand pit with difficulty.

Get out of the bunker and drive the tank and run away, if you meet an antlion, it will be cold. Wang Zhiyuan thought to himself: "What the hell is wrong with this world, it can turn a 3-centimeter-sized insect into a monster several meters long in a few days." Will this be more terrifying than the Galaxy Clan in a few months and years, and we have to hurry up to find the wreckage of the Wang Shenxing spaceship to increase the possibility of survival. ”

Wang Zhiyuan tried to shake his legs, felt the pain to death, and scolded: "The heroes in the movie are all liars!" After being shot a few times, the combat effectiveness exploded. "It seems that I can only spend half a month in the car, and I looked at the map in front of the road, and a small part of the Wang Shenxing spaceship fell a little north of the road.

You can't do anything risky, so let's go find that little fragment first, and recuperate by the way. "The air contains trace amounts of harmful chemicals, and the concentration is slowly increasing," Cortana suddenly warned. ”

The air conditioner with air filtration function was installed in the car, so Wang Zhiming felt that it was not tight, no wonder there was not a single insect along the way. Bypassing a convex hill, the terrain in front of it is slowly lowering, and a small industrial area is built in the middle of this mountain.

The entire industrial area was shrouded in a pale green fog, and there were still a few traces of impact on the mountains to the east. After checking the map and finding that this industrial area was not marked on the map, Wang Zhiyuan thought: "There should be no living creatures in this toxic chemical pollution area, go in and find the wreckage of the spacecraft to see what the situation is." ”

Wang Zhiyuan took some painkillers and asked, "Cortana, will it be a problem if you drive a tank through this area?" ”

Cortana turned on the air filtration function on the screen and said: "There is nothing wrong with this level of chemical pollution, as long as you don't get out of the tank and don't open the hatch cover to contaminate the area." ”

Looking at the green mist flowing slowly along the ground outside the tank with the commander's viewing glass, he thought it must be a chemical such as chlorine. I glanced at the somewhat dilapidated label standing on the side of the road, with a few big bold characters "Green Forest Insecticide", and a funny advertisement, a big-headed doll in blue holding a large bottle of pesticides and dead insects at his feet.

Not far away, there was a black-brown face on the glass of the guard hall, with hideous facial features huddled together, and his hands on his neck stared blankly outside. The tank pushed open the creaking telescopic door at the door, and slowly drove into the old factory, which was estimated to be more than half a century old, full of cracks and old pipes flowing down with faint green smoke.

The green fog is getting thicker and thicker, and only a rough outline can be seen a little further away. There were a few bodies huddled in the corner, and there were piles of corpses stacked around several buses in the parking lot.

Wang Zhiyuan looked at the purgatory-like scene around him and thought: "This may be the real reason why he is reluctant to go to densely populated places. Or is it to press over them? ”

"Master Chief, there are signs of biological activity nearby, pay attention to your surroundings." Cortana's warning pulled Wang Zhiyuan back from philosophy. After taking a look in the commander's observation glass, there were indeed some large and small black shadows moving in the green mist.

Cortana opened the map and enlarged and said, "The wreckage of the Wang Shenxing spacecraft should be in this factory area, go along the place with a high concentration of green fog to have a look." Wang Zhiyuan adjusted the direction of the tank and moved slowly towards the place where the poisonous fog was most difficult, and the track exploded a small insect from time to time, splashing green slime. Cortana frowned and called up the interface of the tank structure and said, "Master Chief, the body fluids of these little beetles seem to be corrosive to a certain extent, and the beetle slime that was crushed just now caused a little weak acid corrosion to the tank tracks. ”

Wang Zhiyuan looked at the detailed data of the state of the tank tracks, and the strength of the corrosion was less than one percent, so it should not be a big problem. The crawler pressed against the horizontal and vertical pipes on the ground, and drove into a dimly lit workshop full of cans.

The turret used a dozer blade to push open the iron door of the workshop, and a slanted cut in the four tall chemical storage tanks was flowing out with a dark green poisonous mist. A golden shard embedded in the sand could be faintly seen in the thick fog to the left of the storage tank. The tank moves near the golden shards and finds a dense mass of small beetles gnawing on what looks like a hatch.

Grabbing the golden shard with the mechanical arm and shaking off the beetle on it, Cortana said, "Master Chief, now put on the gas mask, I need to open for a while and throw the shell hatch." Wang Zhiyuan closed his breath and put on his mask, and a fluorescent blue tentacle stretched out from the bridge, and slowly opened the shell throwing hatch cover, emitting a stream of green particles, enveloping the entire golden fragment.

By the time the debris was absorbed, the tank compartment was already filled with green mist, and Wang Zhiyuan began to feel a little uncomfortable breathing even though he was wearing a gas mask. Retract the luminescent tentacles and close the hatch, and the smoking system in the turret is all working.

Robot 5 suddenly said from the gunner's seat: "Master Chief, a large number of unidentified beetles are burrowing out of the crack in the chemical storage tank. ”

Wang Zhiyuan turned the car to see that a large crack in a storage tank in the middle was swarming out like pouring beans. The turret began to slowly rotate towards the chemical storage tank as the chain conveyor pushed a 150mm grenade into the chamber.

There was a loud bang, and the shock wave raised billowing smoke and dust, blowing away the surrounding green fog, and it was clear that the tall chemical storage tank was densely covered with insect eggs and workers' corpses. A stout flash of light hit accurately, and the entire storage tank was cut into a hole several meters wide.

The strong explosion made the insects inside turn into green sauce in an instant, and soon the lower part of the storage tank began to smoke and rust, and a chemical storage tank more than 30 meters high broke in more than ten seconds. The green slime flooded the beetles and eggs below.

Looking at the surging green slime, Wang Zhiyuan fired a shot at the ground in front of the right, blowing up a large crater more than half a meter deep, delaying the speed at which the green slime was approaching. Shouting into the commander's screen, "Cortana, drive to speed mode and get out of this place." ”
