Episode 1 The Origin of the World Chapter 9 The Wilderness
Ahead was a rolling hill, where the road took a sharp turn to the east, and the two men left the road and continued north. Looking up, there is still no shadow of a signal base station.
Next to a small stream, the two decided to rest and replenish their strength. Handing Liang Qian half a tube of synthetic food, Liang Qian took a small bite, put the rest away, and put it with him.
Ten minutes later, Han Fei picked up Liang Qian on his back and continued to hurry.
When you enter, you find that this hill is supposed to be the remains of an old city, and under the vegetation, you can faintly see the outline of dilapidated buildings and collapsed high-rise buildings. After losing the protection of civilization, those magnificent human creations cannot resist the erosion of nature and time after all.
For the next two days, the two walked at sunrise and rested at sunset. The remaining half of the synthetic food per person did not move, and Liang Qian could always command Han Fei to find some food such as "potatoes" and "sweet potatoes", and even hunted a "rabbit" that was unlucky and hit his head on a stone. Anyway, I have completely lost my bearings, and I can only keep going all the way north.
Along the way, it became more and more silent, Liang Qian's injuries seemed to be aggravated, and the time she spent awake became less and less, and she fell into a coma from time to time.
"Han Fei, I don't seem to be able to support you, I should die, right?" Liang Qian, who came to her senses for a short time, whispered. Han Fei wanted to say something comforting, but he didn't know what to say. Finally, he held back a sentence:
"It's okay, we can go back."
"Tell me a joke."
"Well, a long, long time ago....."
"Why does every story have to start with 'a long, long time ago'?"
"Because in this way, you can tell your experience smartly, and you don't have to trouble your non-existent friends all the time."
"Oh ~~~......."
"Boss, Liang Qian? .......”
Feeling the faint breath on his cheeks, Han Fei's footsteps paused, cheered up, and continued to walk with a determined gaze.
......
Liang Feng stood in front of the virtual map, his brows condensed.
In three days, the organized troops successfully opened the road to the mine. But now the problem is that there are not enough people to garrison it. Often, the front foot has just been arranged with the signal base station, and the back foot has just left and is destroyed. Large teams are fine when they go around, but small teams will face the fate of being attacked. In three days, more than 20 people had died, and more than 500 people had been seriously injured.
More than 4,000 people are distributed to a defense line of more than 50 kilometers, which is like a glass of water poured into the source river, and the waves cannot turn a single one. Now we can only abandon the complete deployment of defenses and send a large number of troops to escort the ore transport convoy, transporting raw ore one by one.
"Archon, the scientific research institute has sent a report that the kinetic armor has been tested and mass production has begun. Psionic armor has been produced, and all capable people are equipped. The bunker has also been tested, but due to insufficient energy and mine reserves, it cannot be produced on a large scale for the time being. The equipment parameters have been uploaded, please check them by yourself. The "main intelligence" sink "sent a report".
"How's the kinetic armor production capacity?" Liang Feng asked.
"It can produce 50 sets per day."
"The city's functions will be downgraded by one level, and production will be carried out at full capacity. At the same time, the civil product workshop will be renovated, and 10 bunkers will be added every day after 1,000 sets. ”
"Okay, Archon."
.......
Gao Zibing is a Level III miner in the Daji Mine, responsible for driving mining robots, surveying ore veins and formulating mining plans. Mining and transportation are handled by automated bots. The raw ore is screened and roughed before it is transported to a factory near Huicheng to be purified into standard limestone.
At this time, the entire Daji vein was put under martial law, and several peripheral veins were destroyed a few days ago, causing a lot of casualties. After the pioneer corps is now stationed, the entire mine is in full swing, and more than a dozen truckloads of raw ore are transported to Huicheng every day.
Gao Zibing knew that the matter had become serious, and communication with the outside world had been cut off for several days. The soldiers of the pioneer corps were also silent, refusing to reveal any news, and Gao Zibing became more and more worried in his heart.
"Why don't we just blow up the mines and cut off their energy supply?" About two kilometers from the entrance to the mine, Li Qi was standing in the canopy of a large tree, observing the movement of the garrison, when a young woman next to him asked.
"It's bait. As long as the mine remains, the opposite side will have to send troops to protect the line. We can keep bleeding him. If the mines were lost, they would be able to concentrate all their strength, although they could cut off their supplies. To put it simply, as long as the mine is still there, they will choose to climb the technology, and then be boiled in warm water. But without energy, he may choose a wave of explosive troops and fight directly. Squinting his eyes, Li Qi said lightly:
"The commander on the other side is not stupid, but he doesn't know what our goal is at all, and now that he chooses to explode troops, there may be a certain opportunity to climb the level of technology? Hehe, time is on our side! ”
.......
The sun was setting in the west, and the last rays of sunlight were blocked by the mountains in the distance, and the sky turned on the eye protection mode, and it darkened a little. Liang Qian only woke up once in the afternoon today, and she couldn't eat anymore, so she only drank a little water. Han Fei didn't stop, wanting to walk a little more before nightfall.
At this time, Han Fei, who was looking up to identify the direction, found the wreckage of a signal base station ------.
Hope surged in his heart, and he hurriedly quickened his pace and ran forward. Suddenly, Han Fei was inspired and hurriedly stopped. But a Nightblade Leopard had spotted him, and let out a long roar, as if calling for his companions. Within a few seconds, the three nightbladed leopards had already surrounded Han Fei, and at this time it was too late to escape, it was impossible for a person to outrun such a large predator in the wild. Quickly settled Liang Qian beside the stone behind him.
Han Fei was also heartbroken at the moment, opened the insurance, raised his gun and aimed!
"Dada!"
The two shots missed, and the Nightblade Leopard soldiers divided into three routes and rushed towards Han Fei in an irregular route. There were only 7 bullets left, and Han Fei didn't dare to shoot again, suppressing the tension in his heart:
"The speed is too fast, the hit is missed, calm, calm, precipitate, prejudge the amount of ...... in advance"
"Da!"
At the moment of shooting, the Nightblade Leopard suddenly turned around, but still missed. At this time, the nearest nightblade leopard was only about fifty meters away, and in two seconds, Han Fei, who was close to him, would only have a disemboweling ending!
Han Fei held his breath, only to feel that something in his body had been unraveled and broken, his eyes became dazed, and everything around him slowed down.
"Da Da Da!"
At the moment when the first Nightblade Leopard flew and jumped, Han Fei fired. The bullet accurately hit the eyes of the Nightblade Leopard, and under the action of inertia, the Nightblade Leopard fell heavily to the ground and rolled in front of Han Fei. At this time, the remaining two Nightblade Leopards surrounded one on the left and one on the right, quickly moving two steps, and leaning against a boulder on their backs to prevent their abdomen and back from being attacked at the same time. Han Fei turned his gun and aimed at the Nightblade Leopard, which was rushing in the other direction.
"Dada!"
Killed one with the same method, Han Fei hurriedly turned around, the last Nightblade Leopard had already pounced, barely resisting a claw blow with the body of the gun, the huge force shocked Han Fei's hands numb, the person had been pounced on the ground, the Nightblade Leopard bit Han Fei's neck, Han Fei's muscles skyrocketed, he pressed his elbow against the throat of the Nightblade Leopard, and with his right hand, he pulled out the saber from his belt with difficulty, and used his last strength to stab the throat of the Nightblade Leopard frantically.
Night covers the land.
Han Fei was covered in blood, let out a low roar, and crawled out from under the Night Blade Leopard little by little. Lying flat on the ground and breathing heavily, suddenly his whole body convulsed violently, and a numb and painful numbness began to occur from his internal organs, as if countless ants were gnawing frantically inside, and then this pain kept going deep into the bone marrow, and with the blood flow, it seemed to come to the skin of the body again, and the whole body was in this kind of pain that was more uncomfortable than death.
Originally, Han Fei's illness was just pain at the level of consciousness, but this time, for some reason, it actually reflected on the physical body, and it was still in this dangerous wilderness.
Han Fei curled up, his throat wailing like a beast...... The pain irritated every inch of his nerves, and he couldn't even think about passing out.
The sharp pain lasted for ten minutes, and Han Fei was lying on the ground, looking dying.
"When I woke up, I couldn't fall asleep, I couldn't sleep yet...... The smell of blood may attract other predators, and it is necessary to leave! At this time, he became more and more sober and rational, and overcame the double physical and mental torture with his will, and got up little by little, and raised his head. After groping around with the corpse of the Nightblade Leopard for a while, he took out his saber, laboriously removed one of his hind legs, and then picked up Liang Qian and left the place as fast as he could.
Finally found a suitable camp, gently put down Liang Qian, this is a collapsed tunnel of the old era, Han Fei found dry firewood to build a campfire, cut the hind leg into strips of meat of different sizes, and roasted it directly on the fire. picked out a small piece of meat, chopped it into minced meat, and put it in the box with the last small tube of synthetic food, and boiled a meat porridge for Liang Qian.
Gobbling up the meat strips that were roasted on the outside and raw on the inside, Han Fei carefully fed Liang Qian while thinking back to the previous battle. When fighting with the Nightblade Leopard, Han Fei clearly felt that he had entered a mysterious state, fear, nervousness and other emotions seemed to be stripped out, and his mind was filled with a large number of fighting skills, and the consequence was the sharp pain that he didn't dare to recall. The physical strength was recovering quickly, and Han Fei guessed that it might be because the flesh of the Night Blade Leopard contained a lot of spiritual energy, and the symptoms of muscle soreness had also been reduced a lot.
"Five days, it feels like a long time!" Han Fei laughed at himself that he seemed to be a little used to the wilderness night. He suddenly thought a little about the warm dining room and the lazy fat cat.
"We'll be able to go back!"
Han Fei clenched his fists and thought to himself.
......
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Han Fei woke up. Last night, because of the urgency of the situation, he didn't have time to collect the loot, so he decided to go to the place where he was fighting, and came back with some meat. By the way, take a good look at the signal base station to see if you can determine the current position.
The rifle only has one bullet, and it is damaged when parrying the Nightblade Panther's claw shots. has been lost by Han Fei, he decided to make a weapon to defend himself first. I found a suitable hardwood in the surrounding woods, cut it to a moderate length, sharpened one end, roasted it over the fire, and a wooden spear was ready.
After eating and drinking, Han Fei carried a wooden spear and ran in the direction of his memory. Going around to a high point with a wide field of vision, Han Fei cautiously looked for the place where he fought yesterday. There were only a few pools of dark red blood on the ground, and the corpse of the Nightblade Leopard was gone.
"!"
Han Fei couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, his heart hurt that so much meat was gone, and at the same time, he was a little glad that he didn't stay last night, otherwise he might have encountered some terrible things.
In very high visibility conditions, his enhanced vision allows him to easily see accidents for several kilometers. This area of signal base stations has been completely destroyed, and it seems that the mission of those Nightblade Leopards is to destroy the signal base station, and he even vaguely saw several Nightblade Leopards wandering in the extreme distance. Comparing the map, Han Fei found a few more suitable locations, and pondered in his heart:
"If the signal area is destroyed, then there may be wild beasts roaming in every signal area now, and there are only two routes, one is to bypass the large signal area and return to the city from the southeast direction of Huicheng. In that direction, for various reasons, the signal covered only a few kilometers outside the city. The second is to quietly touch the Daji mine, no matter what, the Daji mine is the lifeblood of Huicheng, and it must be a key defense area. ”
Carefully probe the neighborhood to find some obvious features and determine the location and plan the route as soon as possible. Liang Qian has less and less time to be awake, and her injuries are getting worse and worse, so even if he takes some risks, he has to find a way to bring her back.
........
The morning sun looked blazing, and a beam of sunlight shone on Liang Qian's face, warm, making her face look a little warmer. Liang Qian curled up on the ground, with dead grass and leaves under her, and suddenly struggled, as if she wanted to wake up from a nightmare, and whispered:
"Han Fei, Han Fei~~~"
Didn't get a response. Suddenly he woke up, got up and sat up with difficulty, like a cub that had lost the protection of a mother beast, looked around, tears could not help but burst out of his eyes, and he screamed hoarse with all his might:
"Han Fei ~~ Han Fei ~~ Where are you. Come out quickly, don't leave me alone, woo......"
Weakly crawling towards the sun-drenched place, the sobs slowly turning into silent choking. The dazzling sunlight did not bring her a trace of warmth, and she felt like a child abandoned by the whole world, shrouded in helplessness and loneliness that came everywhere.
"Woo~, Han Fei, you come out, are you going to leave me too? Woo woo~~" exhausted her strength, Liang Qian crawled on the ground, unable to make a sound.
"Boss, are you awake? That's great. I've already ......" In a trance, Liang Qian seemed to hear a familiar voice. His brain was blank, and he subconsciously used all his strength to hold on to Han Fei's arm.
“.... From.... Then...., so that we can go back! Han Fei looked at Liang Qian and pointed to the map excitedly.
But Liang Qian didn't listen to what Han Fei was saying at all, and choked up to herself:
"Woo woo~~, don't leave me behind. I'm so scared! ”
