Chapter 52: A Moment of Horror 1

"Shock, why is the tree gone?" The worm woke up a few minutes before Zhen and screamed. He had been looking back and forth for a while, but he didn't see the shadow of the tree, and the very tall lava in the distance was still there, but the tree was gone.

"Ah, how can it be, the tree has been jumping there all night last night." Zhen was also a little panicked.

"It doesn't matter if he's gone, but do we dare to go back to the village to get food? Yesterday, I only thought about the robot, how did I forget the most important thing. The people live on food. ”

"He must have been jumped into some kind of pit. Maybe it will take a long time to climb up, and we can try to go back once and bring more food back. ”

"Wouldn't it be more dangerous if he was blocked in the storeroom?" Zhen said as he activated the three robots that were building the road. Then I started tinkering with another robot, and with yesterday's experience, this robot will soon be able to move. I tried the most obvious button on the back again, and a flash of light began to scan.

"I'm so hungry, I'm hungry, this tree just doesn't listen to advice, and now it's okay, it's infected and mutated, and we're both trapped in this place. Robots, are you hungry? ”

"Worm, you're nervous too. As long as there is sunshine, the robot will not go hungry. ”

"Shock, it's not okay to transfer the hunger all of a sudden, fortunately with these three robots to help build the road, otherwise we wouldn't even have any hope of going back."

"It's not so pessimistic. Now we know that the people from the base have come to look for us, hey, where's the little kite? ”

"Who knows, if you can't see it, you'll fly back." The insect said in a very high mood.

Suddenly, there was a roar from the direction of the village. Yes! Ahhh Immediately afterwards, the tree appeared on the path leading to the village. Jumping and running this way. The body is almost unbalanced, and several times it is about to fall into the deep pits on both sides of the path, but it is back on the path.

"Oops, when did this guy go back? I carried another bag of jerky, and it seemed that meat was more alluring than all of us. ”

"Worm, it's better that we never have the temptation. Hey, how did he get back to the lava over there. ”

Sure enough, the tree jumped back to the same place it was yesterday. He sat down and rudely tore open the bag of instant meat, which had grown in size from a distance. The tree wolfed down and ate it, and after eating, he stretched out his hand and lips silently, and his clothes were very enjoyable. The nails of the ten fingers shimmered eerily in the sunlight.

"Shock, he's already a zombie now, right?"

"Worm, who has ever seen a real zombie, his current appearance is completely different from a human. Luckily, he didn't come directly to our place. As she spoke, Zhen activated the button on the robot that she thought was in battle mode. Yesterday's robot was No. 1, and No. 1 still emitted a beam of light to spin and scan, and this morning's one was No. 2. The light emitted by No. 2 is flaky. Two parts of light crossed over the lava in the distance. At first, the tree would cover its eyes with two hands with long nails, and then it would eat it without hesitation. That big bag of fast-eating meat, to say the least, is 100 catties, and there are dozens of small bags when opened. The synthetic metal-fibre sealed bag glistened blue in the sunlight, and in just a few moments, a large bag of instant meat was almost swallowed by the tree. Zhen and Worm looked nervously at this side, hiding behind No. 1 and No. 2, and the three robots that were building the road over there were getting farther and farther away from them. The path behind him is getting longer and longer.

"God, can you fit so much meat into a person's appetite? Where did he eat? ”

"In the stomach, I heard that his stomach has been replaced and repaired, which is equivalent to a semi-mechanical processing device."

"That won't be completely out of the law of the cycle of human life, that no one has ever changed his stomach, and he is not like him."

"Also, there are still a few people who are original primitive humans, but who also follow the circulatory system innervation of the limbs. It is also necessary to eat grains and vegetables, and it also needs various trace elements to maintain life. Come to think of it, the maximum volume of packaging for instant food is only one kilogram. These hundred-year-old meats should also be of this weight. Now they have swelled dozens of times, but in fact, they still eat as much as they used to eat in people's stomachs, right? ”

"I hope that's the conclusion, otherwise the tree won't be able to burst up." While the two of them were arguing here, the tree moved again, and jumped back to the lava village as it had come.

"Finally gone, watching him eat over there, I was even hungrier. Do you say that he went back to sleep when he was full, he is like this these days. ”

"I hope so, if he goes back, the meat will be bad."

"Zhen, you reminded me, why don't you ask the robot to help us go back and get food."

"I've thought about it, but I'd rather ask them to help fix the road sooner. In this way, we can stay away from the tree completely, and we can go back to discuss and study with everyone how to cure the tree. ”

"Hey, where's the road-building robot?" Suddenly, the worm looked back and was surprised.

"Ah, the road has been built for such a long time, and today's progress is more than yesterday and the day before yesterday combined." Zhen said and ran down the path.

"Zhong, I see the figure of the activity." The ring is high with a protective mesh belt there, and the wine is excited. He had put the improvised telescope back together and looked at it as he ate it in his mouth.

"In which direction, I have replaced the eye parts, and the vision is no worse than that of your Rausch telescope, I aimed."

"Zhong, really, wait, I calculated it, and it was probably less than a hundred meters away. It looks like there's a smooth path over there, and it looks like it's still being extended. ”

Everyone was excited and relieved, the telescope was passed in the hands of several people, and those with good eyesight were also looking far away.

"Lei Lao, Rose, it looks like the tree is building a road, right?"

"Zhong, you also saw it, I don't think you used a telescope."

"yes, I can't see far away, why are there only two figures, a team of three, is there someone seriously injured?"

"Zhong, your eyesight is better than before, I'll talk about this later, it's not two people, it's five people, right?"

"What, six or seven people." Wine said, adjusting the lenses.

"Oops, isn't there any other living person here besides the tree trio?"

"Zhong, if the three of them are really building a road, can we also build a road to connect with them? Regardless of whether it is a three-person team of trees or not, the only ones who can build roads with wisdom are humans. ”

"Lei, your proposal is very good, but we don't have any tools to build roads."

"Zhong, we can use the ring high protective mesh belt."

"Rose, you mean to dismantle the network and build the road, it's okay to do this, and if you destroy the ring height facility, you will be sent to the space prison development department."

"Electricity, the ring is now scarred, not to mention the big cracks on the main road, and the supply points on the auxiliary roads have also been artificially damaged, and this protective net belt has been damaged when we didn't come. Yesterday the wine lens was able to be cut, and even if it was still intact, it lost its original function. ”

"That's right, let's cut a section of the protective mesh belt and lay it directly on the lava, which is a mesh belt pavement."

"Then what are you waiting for, let's get to work." Zhong said, and the people also ran to the mini car that had been smashed to pieces, looking for a handy tool.

Zhen and the worm ran some distance, and there was a deep pit in front of them, and the three road-building robots had fallen into the pit and were burying lava blocks on it.

"002, why don't you get around here?" Zhen asked, looking at the pit.

"Master, if you bypass it, you will deviate from the direction, and after careful calculation, the time taken to detour and landfill is about the same, and landfill is more time-saving." 003 replied that the humanoid hand had not stopped working.

"How do you know there's a deep pit here, and there's still plenty of time to calculate." The worm asked.

"The host, it's K

The conclusion of the PCE scan. Doesn't the owner know? ”

"What's that line?" Zhen wondered, isn't No. 1 and No. 2 combat-type robots?

"To put it simply, it's a light source detection line. Covers an area of twenty kilometers and a depth of ten kilometers——。 ”

"Is that the flake light source? What is the purpose of that state light source? ”

"Locate the light source, humans, why have you forgotten everything, these are still set for us by previous humans, it has been more than a hundred years. Don't you all have a legacy? ”
