Chapter 708: Wasteless City
Rumble!!!
The powerful destructive power of the jade power and the Nishang storm swept away, brushing out one furrow after another on the ground, Leng Mo and Tan Xiangyu opened the way in front, and Nangong Yu and Gongsun Meng chased behind.
The figures of the four people were extremely fast, and many corpse beasts were already hundreds of feet away from them before they could see the trace, making it difficult for corpse beasts and zombies to chase.
Of course, there are still a few who don't open their eyes, and they are thrown off during the chase, or they are turned around and shot in the head by the god pistol, and they die tragically on the spot.
The road they chose happened to be a lake in a big pit, with hundreds of rivers extending out, and they didn't need to worry about any cliffs and cliffs at all, and they could easily walk.
"This used to be a big lake, but it dried up and became like this, but why it dried up completely, I can't see the clue at this time, unless Rainbow Canyon will absorb water." Nangong Yu moved quickly while sharing his insights with everyone in the communicator.
"It's possible to absorb water, but the geology of Rainbow Canyon is too weird to be explained by metaphysics." Gongsun Meng echoed.
"Or maybe it has something to do with the rainbow?" Leng Mo came up with another idea.
After Tan Xiangyu heard this question, he said: "Basically, it will not be a rainbow light, just because there is a black river below, it means that there is no shortage of water in the entire Rainbow Canyon, and if the rainbow glow affects the rainfall in this area, there should not be such a large lake before, I can see that it has been dry here for less than fifty years." ”
"Desertification?" Leng Mo believes that this is a rocky desert terrain.
"Definitely, but it is also possible that the strata change, after all, the difference between our location and the Perfume Sea is too large, and it is actually not small to flow into that sea, but it is impossible to even change the climate, so I have ruled out this option." Nangong Yu has a second speculation about the flow of water.
Gongsun Meng suddenly remembered something, and said: "Having said that, the climate of Rainbow Canyon is generally dry, and now the barren place here is a desert climate, so the Perfume Sea, will it be a climate where it rains every day?" ”
"The probability is not low, Mr. Jin Ye said, remember to bring an umbrella when you go there." Tan Xiangyu's eyes changed slightly, and he was negligent.
"It's okay, there are small cities anyway, let's go in and find some materials to make a few umbrellas." Leng Mo believes that kitchenware can be easily built, and umbrellas are naturally not a problem.
"It's okay, it's fast, it's getting dark again." Tan Xiangyu urged, and the increased red glow increased the speed of the skateboard by another three percent.
Seeing this, the three of them immediately urged eighty percent of their energy to speed up their flashes away from this dry river valley.
Whew!
The four of them pulled up thick dust behind them, covering up the smell and sight, and some of the chasing corpse beasts and zombies had to give up their pursuit.
Three hours later.
The canopy was lowered, the stars were hung, the crescent moon appeared, and the four figures stepped into a small lakeside city in time.
"Here we are."
Leng Mo put away his skateboard, took off his super helmet, and wiped his sweat.
The three girls also tidied up their clothes a little, but did not take off their super armor, they planned to find out whether there were corpse beasts or zombies in this small city first, and then come to change their clothes with peace of mind.
Tonight, they plan to rest here for the night and look for a ship that can sail in the sea of perfumes.
Since it is called the sea, ordinary small boats are certainly not good, and they need to find the kind of medium-sized ships that are relatively large and not decaying, and carry out coastal patrols, as well as sea surface cleaning and underwater observation.
The main purpose of cleaning the sea is to see if there are any ships like the last time I saw them, which are full of zombies.
The observation under the sea is mainly to investigate whether there are mysterious creatures on the bottom of the sea, or too many zombies hiding inside, so that a large number of people will not attack ashore one day, but it is impossible to prevent it.
"The map of the city has not yet been washed away by time, so we will investigate the four areas separately as before, and after the survey is completed, we will return to the central square and meet at the place called the Zhuzhu Tower." Tan Xiangyu looked at the city, a trace of strangeness flashed in front of her eyes, but before she could detect any dangerous creatures, she began to assign work with confidence.
The four of them looked at each other and immediately separated.
It's night now, and the action is faster than imagined, to avoid emergencies, many zombies and corpse beasts are more active at night than during the day, Leng Mo and others attribute this reason to zombie blood similar to vampires.
The legendary vampire is very likely to absorb a wisp of zombie blood in order to become the immortal but alive.
Fifteen minutes passed, Zhuzhu Tower.
The whole city was black, only the central building that looked like a pearl tower, emitting a faint light, which was suitable as a gathering center, and the four of them all looked bad after the investigation.
Nangong Yu glanced at everyone and said: "Since everyone sees almost the same, then it's easy to say, there are no corpse beasts and zombies on my side, and there are not even skeletons, Gongsun Meng, have you seen anything?" ”
"Buildings can be intact, I only know that the materials are very special, they should be made of stones from the sea of perfumes, but why the whole city can be swept away by the zombie frenzy without any damage, and the divination can't come out, and even as you just said, there are no bones left, it's a bit strange." Gongsun Meng frowned and replied, she thought that there could be no trace of people here, but no matter how much the roof of the house, the warehouse, and the basement were all rummaged through, there were only three words: empty.
"Could it be that no one will live in it after it's built?" Leng Mo said a speculation that was extremely unlikely.
"Impossible." Tan Xiangyu decided to slap him in the face.
"Ahem, too." Leng Mo looked at the glowing pearl tower beside him, like a string of pearls, shining with beige brilliance, it was obvious that someone should have lived.
Tan Xiangyu frowned and said to everyone: "I will live in the Zhuzhu Pagoda tonight, just in case." ”
Pushing open the heavy glass door, the four of them stepped into the Zhuzhu Tower.
Inside the tower, there is a rotating ivory staircase, step by step, as if endlessly spreading upward, and there are actually six elevators in the center, but there is no power and cannot be started.
There are also some ticket booths and ticket machines around, but there are no desks or various leaflets, so it is clear that the people who built the tower wanted to use this as a tourist area.
And the staircase should be used for people to practice running races and escape?
"Let's go up to the top floor first, and then check it layer by layer." Nangong Yu stretched out his foot and stepped on it, trying to see if the stairs were solid.
"Let's go!"
In the blink of an eye, everyone had reached the top floor of the forty-nine floors.
If you want to say that there are 50 floors, that is the roof, so basically not counting, the entire Zhuzhu Pagoda is about 49 stories high, not the kind of steel building that used to be seen hundreds of floors high.
But the highest floors in the entire city are basically below 20 floors, so the Zhuzhu Pagoda is still a landmark of the city.
"There's a sign here, and it looks like someone left it on purpose." Nangong Yu was the most observant, and she first noticed an acrylic card that didn't match.
The four people walked over and saw that there were four words written on it, and there was no shortage of deserted cities.
