Chapter 141: The Journey of Life and Death 2
Building 1 is in chaos right now, and countless rodent creatures crawl out of nowhere, and the dozen or so people who remain here are surrounded by these rats. Although these creatures were no bigger than the surface of a human foot, the ground was full of crawling and squeaky things, and it was terrifying to look at. A few people hurriedly picked up their casual things and fought with the rats.
"Hey, you're holding instant food, put it down, and step on it with your feet to have more combat effectiveness than you have now." Iron Legs shouted loudly. A sentence reminded the people who were in a hurry, only to find that the fast food had lost a lot, which was distressing.
The battle situation of the four Zhong people was much better, and the people stepped on and kicked, shouted and chased after them, and finally drove the rats to the door. The strange thing is that I don't know where these rats came from just now, and now they are all driven to the door, but they are piled up and refuse to go out, and they are all blocked in the gate.
"What's the matter, is there a creature more terrifying than humans for these rats?"
"It's so ignorant, human beings stand at the top of the biological chain, they are the natural enemies of all living things, and every species also has its own natural enemies, but they don't know what is out there?"
"It's not so much what it is, it's why so many rats and things out there come out all at once?"
"Don't scare people, if it's because of the movement of the earth's crust or the eruption of lava. We didn't come to the final station in vain with hope, oh my God, what kind of bug is that in the window? ”
"What a look, that's a snake. Snake? Oh no, the poisonous snake is coming! One person shouted, and on top of the synthetic glass window lay several snake-like creatures, their round bodies as if they had suckers clinging to the glass. It makes people numb to watch. Immediately afterward, there was a sneering sound outside, which sounded like the snakes in the description. Everyone tried to go over and close the gate, but the rats blocked the gate. I watched the wriggling and tumbling snakes and insects crawling all over the yard. And there should be something outside the yard, only to see those snakes and insects gathered together and entangled with each other. Squeezed together, standing upright with their heads out of the gate, and even opening their mouths to make a sneering sound. The target wasn't a human in the house, and it didn't look like a rat cramming into their mouths.
"It's not good, it's a big gathering of biological poisonous insects, or have they all been driven out by abnormal environments. Hey, I said it's not fun here, so let's go somewhere else. ”
"Hey, hurry up and think of a way, won't we be wrapped up like this."
"There's no good way, these little animals are coming this way, it just means that this place is relatively safe, and when it happens, let's deal with them."
"Rose has a point, it's the final stage of the ring's self-healing, and the lava eruption is just the only way for it to stretch its muscles again. Such lava eruptions, as long as they are not at the eruption site, are generally short-lived and not too dangerous. ”
"Oh, it's like the last eruption, a pillar of fire, a lava, and then a cloud of dust."
"That's pretty much it, so we're just waiting here for the best."
"If we don't wait here, we won't be able to get out, the rats are blocking the gate, the snakes and insects are occupying the yard, and the people outside don't know what is blocking the way, Zhong, are we the worst guys?"
"Poor mouth, why don't you say that we drove away the rats."
"This place belongs to humans, and they are outsiders."
Everyone was impoverished to alleviate the unknown changes. Finally, the temperature around them gathered and rose, the rats inside were wailing, and the snakes and insects in the courtyard outside were squeezed and entangled more tightly, almost becoming a wriggling hill. The unknown creatures beyond finally climbed the top of the wall, and sure enough, it was the kind of creeping creature covered in scales.
"Good boy, what a shock, why don't you go to war. You will fight, kill one less one, and then we will have one less opponent. ”
"Don't be poor, everyone find a place to make a bunker to ensure that if the building collapses, it won't be smashed."
"Rose, it can't be that serious, right?"
"It's right to be cautious after all, spread out quickly, the lava is about to erupt." Zhong took it and said. As he spoke, the earth shook violently, yes, all at once. Then there was the dust flying in the sky, and I didn't know which direction the fire-breathing pillar was emitting magma, and I could only see the dust that had been in the air for a long time.
The four-story building made a clicking sound in the shaking, as if human bones had been broken. The connecting walls have also been stretched and deformed, and I am afraid that there is a great building. How many years later, will future generations wonder how the ancestors built such a house?
"Everyone, watch your step, I feel like those rats are moving." I couldn't see anything in the dust for a while, and the bell reminded me loudly.
"Zhong, it doesn't sound like it's coming in, it's like it's all going out. Oh no, the sneering voice came in, right? "I don't know who said it in the dust.
"It's not like it, it's probably one of those scaly reptiles."
Everyone could not see each other, and with the dust and the dark and reddish turbid air, the whole building was hazy like hell, and it was like walking on the road to death. Although I couldn't feel anything under my feet, I was terrified in my heart. All around was the sound of squeaks, sneers, and scaly reptiles rubbing against each other.
"How are you all, have you been bitten by rats, poisoned by snakes and insects, and that kind of scale reptile hasn't come in?" Rose asked aloud.
"No, Rose, Zhong, we can't do it, or let's go upstairs. Wouldn't the air upstairs be a little better? ”
"It's also a way, the dust will slowly fall to the ground, and the situation on it should be a little better. Whoever can find the stairs will loudly determine the location. ”
"Hey, I'm hiding under the stairs, here, I'm up the stairs, here and here."
Everyone looked for the sound and went up to the second floor, then the third floor, then the fourth floor. After calling each other's names and making sure they all went upstairs, Zhong's heart relaxed slightly. The fourth floor is obviously much brighter here than downstairs, at least you can see the hazy shadows of each other.
"It's a bad thing, it's shaken so much, I don't know how much food is still on the shelf, I'm afraid it's cheaper rats."
"There's no way around it, I hope the rats are killed by snakes and insects, and the snakes are killed by reptilian scale beetles."
"You think it's beautiful, even if the rats are defeated, the snakes and insects are defeated, and the scale beetles are not easy to deal with. If I want to say that the scale beetle is poisoned by snakes and insects, the snakes and insects are bitten to death by rodents, and finally the remaining rodents are the easiest to drive away. ”
"If we have that ability, wouldn't we have no opponents. The ancestors didn't have to invent those chemicals, and in the end they polluted the earth's environment. ”
"Damn, when will this dust be cleared, why have we caught up with everything. It's more than a hundred years old, and it was fine when we came, but now it's almost in ruins. ”
"That's our luck, it's been more than 100 years since Huangao suffered such a serious laceration, self-repair we witnessed, how can we be absent from the final sprint." Rose said that it was relaxed, but the mood was not easy at all. She has not participated in the construction of the ring high school, but she has read too much information in the past few years of working in the ring high school bureau. There is a sufficient systematic analysis of the annular height cracks and the sub-catastrophe caused by the cracks. She reads these records every day, and there are no too many secrets at her level. really suffered a substantial tear, and it was still stable at the beginning, but the more it came later, the more panicked it became. The aftermath of the Great Crack, the inevitable disaster in self-repair, will undoubtedly have an immeasurable impact on the earth. It's like a very serious patient, you can't let this patient die, and it must involve a lot of people to save him, as well as time and energy, and things that have to be sacrificed because of this.
The ring height is the only special patient in this case, it is injured and has a substantial tear, which is not in the original design argument, the small crust moves and it is slightly stretched and elongated, these are within the margin of error, and the ring height has become uneven for more than 100 years. However, this change does not affect the function of the ring height, and only with the ring height can the human beings on the earth live a stable life, and science and technology can make great strides without being affected.
The unexpected Big Bang in space was also abrupt, and these were also in the ring high argument. Outer space vehicles can pass through the vast universe, how can they malfunction and explode when they are close to the earth. And the earth is a big family, in which there are no secrets between races, and humans do not have the time and energy to tinker with things outside of life, or they don't need them at all. So where did the explosion come from? Who is idle and bored, even if they are too idle, it is not that they can do anything.
The frequent eruption of lava is the most important way for the ring height to repair itself, only the continuous eruption of lava, the ring height can digest the mountain barrier caused by the filling of large cracks. Even so, the big crack will be a high hill in the future, but it will not affect the normal operation.
It is easy to fill the large cracks for ring height, it takes three or five years, but the follow-up work is the most tedious. Protective belts, auxiliary road replenishment, ultimate station maintenance and re-location revision... These are not too difficult if the earth is not affected, it is only a matter of time. But looking at the current situation, it is not very good. The Bureau has not taken any action against the high race. There are a lot of things that need to be done at the same time as the ring height's self-healing.
It's been almost three years, and the surviving humans have experienced too many accidents, and many creatures have recovered, and it is likely that they have also re-entered human society. The dormant rivers, lakes and seas have also awakened, and the ruins of the no-man's land have completely turned to dust, which will inevitably affect the small area on which human beings depend. Maybe the haze of thousands of years ago is coming back...
"Rose, what are you thinking, I haven't heard you a few times." Zhong asked worriedly.
"Think about the heights, think about the earth, think about the life we're about to face."
"Rose, I know more about ring height in the records, and I don't dare to think about it if you dare to think about it." Zhong said honestly.
"I don't dare to think it's a bit exaggerated, I don't dare to say it's true." The two men were relatively speechless.
