Nuclear bomb.

It's an almost taboo term.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, all kinds of electronic devices were melted down, and stored nuclear bombs were turned into iron cans.

But over time, high-tech products have been gradually repaired by various specialists, and there are occasional examples of the ultimate weapon of nuclear bombs.

Gu Fan once used a nuclear bomb to kill the newly born [Abyss Devourer] Juggernaut, and then obtained the invincible power of the god gold level, as well as the even more strange and powerful [Devour] ability.

Southern Theater of Operations.

The paranoid faction of the Unbelievers also has such technology in their hands.

"The last days are about a year."

"A branch of the cult of the unbelievers has emerged, and they are paranoid about science and have made many contributions."

"In order to recover the area where human beings live, they threw a nuclear bomb into an abyssal rift, destroying the entire abyssal rift......"

Red Bean explained that the city of mechanical steel was a branch of the Cult of the Unbelievers, madly believing in science and developing various mechanical and war weapons.

Abyssal rifts are a taboo for humanity.

But dropping a nuclear bomb into a crack in the abyss can kill all those abominable carrion xenos once and for all.

The old musket took a puff of his cigar and said as it should be, "It shouldn't end so easily, right?" ”

That's of course.

Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many surprises.

Azuki nodded and continued, "At the beginning, the abyssal rift was dead silent, no living creatures survived, and deep underground there was enough radiation to kill any living thing. ”

"But a month later, a small number of xenomorphs crawled out of the ground."

"Their flesh and blood are corroded by nuclear radiation, and they are fragile, which can be solved with ordinary weapons, but ...... For some reason, over time they became stronger and more resistant to radiation. ”

"The Cult of the Unbelievers can only send troops to suppress the area around the rift and kill all the xenomorphs that appear."

"As for the follow-up, I'm not very clear."

Gu Fan on the side sneered.

In the last days, the reason why the nuclear bomb is called a forbidden weapon is because its side effects are too great.

Nuclear bombs should never be used lightly unless absolutely necessary, as the radiation energy can cause genetic mutations in living things, which may become fragile and vulnerable to shattering with a single blow, just like the xenos who crawled out in the first place.

But there is another possibility.

Super Mutation!!

Once the xenomorphs adapt to the corrosive effects of nuclear radiation, the genes in the body will be super-mutated with the support of nuclear energy, and they will become stronger than before.

"Mechanical, that's stupid."

Gu Fan muttered to himself, and Hongdou suddenly remembered something when he heard it: "That's right, the Mechanicus Sect, that's the name, a branch of the Unbeliever Sect, they seem to have used this name recently!" ”

Cult of the Mechanics.

Gu Fan, who had experienced the previous life, knew very well that they were originally a group of non-believers who believed in science, but later they became more and more paranoid and crazy, and their worship of science and machinery had reached an almost blind level.

They invented the human body's mechanical device, the mechanical neuron, which was able to make the machine and the human body combine with each other.

In order to transform themselves, some believers will even amputate their hands and feet and install mechanical prosthetic limbs, becoming half-machine, half-human beings.

Gu Fan didn't have much affection for these paranoid madmen.

As he said before, blindly believing in anything is a superstition.

"Death's gun, give me the communication device."

Gu Fan ordered: "In addition, Red Bean Guide, you can take the rest of the Wild Hunt Team to the Red Dragon Base first, and only leave the singer Siren to follow me." ”

It's obvious.

Gu Fan didn't plan to take everyone to the Iron and Steel Machinery City.

Xu Manman pouted, shook Gu Fan's palm, and said aggrievedly: "Gu Fan's cauldron, take me with you, Manman also wants to go with you." ”

Gu Fan shook his head: "The abyss rift we are going to has been baptized by a nuclear bomb, and there is radiation everywhere, and only awakened people who have reached the legendary Mithril level can offset the mutation." ”

The Legendary Mithril-level Awakened, also known as the Sage.

At present, among the Wild Hunt Squad, only the Immortal King Kong and the Singer Siren have really reached this level, and even the body of the Death Spear has not been able to reach the level of the Sage, but it barely has the destructive power of the Sage level with the characteristics of weapons and snipers.

Long-term exposure to radiation can cause damage to the genetic tissue, and in severe cases, mutations may occur.

The rest of the Wild Hunt Squad is not very suitable for going to the radiation-filled rift, and it is best to let the others go to the Red Dragon Base first, and the Singer Siren is taking this opportunity to hone in on it.

"Baby Manman, if you stay in the radiation area for a long time, maybe you will have another terrible one-eye on your head, and then a foul mouth!"

Lucky Star came to Xu Manman's side gloomily and continued to scare her: "When the time comes, there will be a toe on your hand......

"Huh?"

"Woooooooooo

"Don't have any more eyes, and don't have a little toe on your hand."

Xu Manman covered his forehead and turned around in a hurry, his watery eyes were full of mist, for fear that he would become a little monster as Lucky Star said.

"Okay, okay, don't scare Manman."

Immortal King Kong waved his hand and patted his chest: "Boss, don't worry, I will protect the others, with me and the Death Spear, there will be no problem." ”

"Hmm."

Gu Fan finally ordered: "Then the soldiers will be divided into two ways, and after this matter is settled, I will go to the Red Dragon Base to join you." ”

……

……

Three days later.

Gu Fan parted ways with the members of the Wild Hunt Squad.

He took the singer Siren Shen Mengxi through the mountain area near the Tianshui line, and walked through a deep forest that was born after the end of the world.

The lush deep forest gradually took on a withered yellow color, a few fallen leaves fell with the wind, and the boots made a crisp "creaking" sound when stepping on it, obviously losing all the nutrients of life.

Shen Mengxi picked up one of the dead leaves.

There was a little dust on the dead leaves, and the Sage-level perception made her sense that the dust was still emitting energy, like a pinch of flame, releasing a faint flame outward.

"All this dust??"

Shen Mengxi raised his head suspiciously, picked up a clean piece of paper in his pocket and wiped it gently, and handed the dust to Gu Fan.

"Ashes."

"You feel the radiant energy up there, right?"

Gu Fan pointed to the trees in front of him that were becoming more and more yellow: "They are all corroded, and they will completely wither and die in a short time." ”

A nuclear bomb exploded.

It burns everything around it, whether it's living things, dirt, or even rocks, and it will turn into ashes and scatter into the sky.

More than thousands of tons of ash drifted in the wind and spread for hundreds of miles, some falling on the dilapidated windows to form a stucco, while others fell on the forest logs, emitting radioactive materials to wilt them.

The effects of a nuclear bomb cannot be eliminated for hundreds of years.
