A ray of morning light shone through the turbid air, and several people set off lightly. Walking through dozens of meters of open area without steel and metal jungle, you have already climbed the high mountain. The ground under your feet is soft, and stepping on it is a footprint. It is difficult to walk, but fortunately the slope is not very steep, otherwise it would be even more difficult.

"I feel like there's lava here, and we're here to summon bugs to replenish our strength." After crawling for a while, everyone was tired and panting, and Zhong suggested.

"yes, it feels like walking in the swamp, tired! You can't even jump if you want to. ”

"Even if we can do it, who dares, there are too many insects summoned, and we won't all be corroded."

"Yes, some of them have become zombies, so why don't we just give them an account here. Woohoo, woohoo..."

"Ahh......h

"Little cuties, we finally don't have to eat light shrimp without a little saltiness."

"Don't be greedy, without those fish and shrimp we would have been hungry a long time ago. Hey, I really can't taste anything without comparison, and these metal bugs still have a salty taste. ”

"Not only does it have a salty taste, but it also has a variety of trace elements that our body needs, which can be called the best food at the current stage."

"No, if you eat those fast foods now, you won't have an appetite even if you think about it."

"It's like being sick at the thought of eating bugs. Why don't any of us study biology, otherwise we would have been able to guess what metal bugs have become? ”

"Tree, it's not a good joke about technology, the metal bug comes from lava, just treat it as a lava derivative, and if you know more, you probably don't want to eat it."

"Zhen, the gods are chattering, you are an archaeologist, not a biology test."

"It's not the point of what to test, let's bring some after eating, if this is a rocky mountain, the thickness of the lava will become thinner and thinner, and the probability of being able to summon bugs will be reduced." Zhong said as he ate.

"The inference is completely correct, there are not many bugs, and they are not big. When you're full, bring it with you, and it's basically gone. ”

In just half an hour, the insects basically didn't come out. A few people put the few remaining bugs in their backpacks and started climbing the mountain again. The higher you climb, the more solid the surface becomes, and the shallow footprints quickly bounce up and become invisible.

"Zhong, we were right, this is a high mountain, and the surface is full of lava layers."

"On the one hand, it confirms our inference that the temperature at the top is the highest, and the lower it gets, and the structural changes of the rock are also different."

"God, this is a gem mountain."

"Not really, the mountains are not all rocks, but also soil and all kinds of plants and animals. After a few lava eruptions, it was gone. ”

"Oh, the legend says that there is a kind of gem that looks like an eye, maybe it's really the animal's eye that freezes instantaneously and the temperature changes."

"It's very likely that those of us who live in the era of cutting-edge technology have very little understanding of what technology is."

"Archaeology is all guesswork, and we know even less."

"Worm, what do you mean, it turns out that our group of three is now a husband and wife duo with a light bulb, and the two of you are singing and harmonizing me as a lonely person. Zhong, will I retire from the group in the future? Zhen joked.

"No." Zhong said that he suddenly walked a long way with a jump.

"Zhong, if you don't bring this, who can jump now and walk like a snail." Everyone jumped up as they spoke, and soon climbed halfway up the mountain. It's already a solid surface. It can be seen that it is still reddish-brown, but it is already petrified.

"Zhong, you don't have to worry about the lava eruption at all."

"It's good news, the mountains are getting easier to climb."

A few people jumped, and the slope was not very steep, but it was far from what was expected. Although the mountains are still bare and devoid of any vegetation, it gives the impression that you are taking one step and two steps back, and the stride that was originally a big leap has slowed down a lot.

"Bell, it's slippery underneath, and the rock layer below has begun to change."

"yes, the density has increased, and we're already walking on the gem."

"I can't get to the top of the mountain today, let's rest, I'm hungry."

"Can you not be hungry, it's going to be dark again. I just ate a bug in the morning, and now the day is almost over. ”

"Sit down and rest, the bugs will be saved for tomorrow morning, there will be no bugs summoned here."

"Zhong is right, tomorrow we will go all out to the top, physical strength is the reliance, perseverance is only the auxiliary."

"Poor mouth, sleep!"

In fact, there is not much difference between the sky and the dark here, and the difference is the warm light of the sun and the cool silver light of the moon, which looks friendly because it is the same color as the ring high road. It's like traveling in a car in the arms of the high cage, but the scenery is different. The farthest view on the ring height is the orange-yellow hole in the protective net, and then the living atmosphere in the auxiliary road supply station. Now it's different, what you see is something that can't be seen on the ring height, and the novelty and mystery are also called to explore and study. The feeling of going back to history is a belief that hunger, cold, and crisis cannot be shaken, and this belief is supported by expectations for the ring and hope for the earth.

Several people were woken up by the numbness and itchiness on their bodies, and when they looked up, a bright moon and clear light poured on the mountains through the turbid red air. The night is charming, but the feeling on the body is uncomfortable.

"What a thing, bite!" The worm lying on the ground screamed loudly.

"yes, it's like I've been electrified." The tree that had fallen asleep sitting next to the insect said something alert.

"Oops, I got a rash." Zhen lifted his sleeves and looked at his arms.

"They bitten you, right?" Zhong pointed to the small dots that slowly wriggled on the surface of the reddish-brown lava. Only then did a few people notice that there were more ant-sized creatures on the ground, and they were itching when they looked at them.

"Worms, I'm scared!" The worm jumped up.

"Little guts! It's not a zombie, what are you afraid of? At most, it looks uncomfortable. The man who was resting next to Zhen jumped up.

Several people were so troubled by this little insect that they couldn't sleep, so they simply cheered up and studied these little things. They are all small and have a pinkish-pink color. The body is oval-shaped, inadvertently like dandruff on human skin. The outer shell is hard when touched by hand, and the liquid that flows out of it is also pink. It's just that they're too small, and they just leave a little bit of pink on the fingers. The skin itched, too.

"Can something so small bite? Do you have a long mouth? ”

"Archaeological, what kind of creature is this?"

"How do I know, I'm not a biological student, looking like a single-celled microbe. What do they live on? ”

"The lava layer here is already thin, and it's a derivative of lava? Why don't you see this color during the day? ”

"It's not the lava layers, they haven't had time to grow yet."

"According to you, they're metal bug larvae."

"Can you widen your horizons, do you remember that kind of mollusc worm with whirring flesh? These must also be small creatures that depend on lava, and they must have eaten lava in the first place, right? ”

"What kind of broken creatures, one hand can kill a large piece, and the vitality is too weak. that you will bite and trample you to death. ”

"Tree, what are you doing? Can't they live well? ”

"Don't do anything, get a clean place to sleep. I'm going to climb the mountain tomorrow. ”

"Yes, there is no food, it's not good to rest, where is there still strength to climb the mountain."

"It's naïve, can you step on them, but with them, you really can't sleep. It's better to take advantage of the moonlight to walk up and eat something when you're tired. Zhong said and took the lead and began to climb.

A few people followed, and when they stood up, they really couldn't find those little bugs that were different from lava powder. The higher you jump, the more slippery you get under your feet. The speed of the jump gradually slowed down.

"It's weird, it's also a lava layer, how did it come to be like this?" The tree that was walking in front fell directly, with his back on the ground and his back facing the sky. The huge body made a thud, as if it had hit the drum face.

"Hey, it sounds empty down there. Tree, it's not that your tonnage is too big, and you smash the ground out of the pit. ”

"Shock, even if I'm bigger than you, I won't be able to. Hey, why is the ground so wet and fluffy? Originally, the tree wanted to climb up, but said in surprise.

"Ahh These seem to be moss or something, so it's no wonder the lava surface is slippery. Shake down and inferred as he touched the surface.

"What? Moss. That means the landscape here is different from other places. Now that the moss is there, the plants should be there. It's no surprise to encounter those little bugs. ”

This discovery made several people excited. Looking at the reddish-brown lava surface, it is also much kinder. The hunger was also reduced, and several people walked slowly without jumping. Feel the tiniest of life beneath your feet.

"Hey, look back at the tree, the place where you fell is like a humanoid template. How mutated is different from us, and we have all changed in the later stage of fusion, and you haven't changed. ”

"How do I know this, if the place I fell down will last for thousands of years, I am afraid that it will be an alternative person in the eyes of future archaeologists."

"Savages. Modern archaeology has also found this point. ”

"Zhen, in fact, are all human beings, but for some reason they suddenly grew taller, and they can't recover. In fact, it is also a form of variation. ”

"These are difficult to determine, I have seen and cannot be caught, and human beings are absolutely weak in front of them. On the premise of in-depth research, they cannot be killed, and they live in a level that humans cannot survive. They have become mysteries. ”

"These have been recorded in history for a long time, and they are finally classified as the ancestors of mankind, and there is also a theory that the phenomenon of human atavism is the phenomenon."

"Maybe none of them are the truth, it's just mutated humans like us. Don't think I'm the biggest among you, you're a different kind of person back to normal. ”

"I agree, although we don't feel different ourselves, we are. It's just that there is no comparison now. ”
