Chapter 3: Falling
Shi Pojian sat in the car and received the information from Shi Xuelin, he had never seen Lin Mo, so naturally he didn't know him.
He looked at Lin Mo's face and said, "If he can come back safely, see if he is willing to join the Northern District Army." ”
Shi Xuelin knew her grandfather's temper, and she cherished her own troops, and hoped to expand enough soldiers to fight against the Zerg. For hundreds of years, the Zerg has become stronger little by little, but because humans lack too many materials, they cannot create weapons that can completely destroy the Zerg, so they can only passively choose to deal with it.
Even if there are icebreakers, the number is too small, and the ability of the icebreakers is not balanced, not all icebreakers can deal with a nest of zergs, and only three people in that group of squads have vital signs is the best proof.
In 310 years, the struggle against the Zerg never stopped.
Shi Xuelin felt a pair of hands around her waist, her face flushed slightly, and said softly: "I'm very tired, but I don't need your comfort now." ”
"yes, so stubborn." The man stretched his head from Shi Xuelin's shoulder, "This kid is very timid, I appreciate it." ”
He had brown eyes, thin lips, and wavy hair like the woman, but there was always a flash of cruelty in his eyes, like a vulture.
People who have dealt with the Zerg always have a vague cruelty, and they know where this feeling comes from and how to balance it.
Shi Xuelin broke free of his arms and looked at Lin Mo standing on the edge of the cliff, "He's going down, I need to be attentive." ”
"Okay." The man came to her and said, "Hopefully he'll surprise us." ”
Lin Mo felt the wind blowing on his face, like a knife cut.
He looked at the cliffs with white mist.
It didn't feel strong enough, but it was cold enough, and he breathed slowly, shaking his shoulders slightly, calming his mood.
He is not blind, because he has been preparing for this day for five years!
And five years ago, the Zerg led by Mogu brutally murdered his adoptive father.
At that time, he made a vow, and the day finally came. He had participated in the conscription, but was not selected due to physical reasons, and he frantically exercised himself and waited for the second conscription.
This opportunity came early.
He twisted his neck, and the two soldiers hung up their cameras for him, patted him on the shoulder, and gave him a thumbs up.
Lin Mo nodded, buckled his mask, and put on his helmet. The oxygen suit is infused with energy, enough to be used for three hours, and in these three hours, he will explore the unknown territory, life and death, and fate.
"He's going down."
"The Mogu II plan may need a death squad to carry out, and he may be one of our jumpers."
"A warrior always needs to be remembered, and if he dies, I will pray and weep for him."
"But what exactly is the path of evolution?"
"It will take 300,000 years, 500,000 years, 1 million years for oxygen to drop and the atmosphere to remix, but can we wait until then? The earth is so scarce that we can't even dig up the basic materials, because these damn bugs are all over the wild, and digging up a piece of material can cost a hundred! ”
"So, we need a new plan."
"A plan to get out of the sun?"
Lin Mo turned on the camera, tied the rope, grabbed the icebreaker with his right hand, and jumped down!
"Soldier, I hope you come back safely."
Soldier?
When Lin Mo heard this, he didn't know who said it, but since he was a soldier, he had already succeeded.
The little gull ran to the wine café, took a big sip of wine, and suddenly cried.
"I'm sorry, I'm useless, I don't dare to accompany you down." Xiaogu left the wine café while crying, and walked to the phone booth to call Meizi. Meizi waited a long time to answer, and her tone was flat. Xiaoou said about Lin Mo, and Meizi just said indifferently: "You coward." ”
I'm not a coward.
The little gull sat on the street, praying to Lin Mo.
"I'm not going down for you, I'm just reluctant to let you go, Meizi, you don't understand my heart at all."
Lin Mo opened his eyes, he was a little unaccustomed for a while, he hung on the wall, and the icebreaker glowed blue. The rope fluttered gently, and he swayed from side to side, and it was quiet below, only the sound of the wind whistling by.
The first time he came to the wild, this feeling was really indescribable, as if he had stepped on the clouds.
If it weren't for this oxygen suit, he would have wanted to roar with all his heart!
The camera is equipped with the latest infrared sensor, although it is impossible to see anything in the dense fog in the distance, but the infrared can scan specific hot spots, and if there are zerg, they will definitely be detected.
It didn't take long for Lin Mo to be happy, and he received a message from Shi Xuelin, and at the same time, there was a reminder from Adjutant Cao Laoxi, he clenched the icebreaker and continued to go down.
The cliff was not as high as it was, and he made a mark every meter he descended, and he estimated that it had fallen nearly a kilometer. The wind was blowing through the fog, and he vaguely felt a strange sound coming from the wind, and he took a deep breath and pulled out his ice breaker.
"Lin Mo, can you hear me?" Shi Xuelin asked.
Lin Mo was naturally familiar with this voice, and hurriedly said: "Hear, I am now at a position of one thousand meters, there is no trace of any movement around, the walls are smooth, there are no footprints and scratches." The Zerg probably didn't pass through here, or maybe the Zerg didn't intend to climb up like that. ”
Shi Xuelin was stunned, she didn't expect Lin Mo to observe so carefully.
Shi Pojian said: "Young man, it's a little interesting. ”
Shi Xuelin no longer concealed it, and continued: "This gap has been investigated, and it is not because of the self-cracking caused by materials or temperature, nor is it other man-made destruction. We found some Zerg genes remaining on it, which is consistent with the specimens we collected, and the marks on the notched junction also prove that this is the result of multiple destructions, not one-time destruction. ”
Lin Mo said: "You're right, I found it when I passed the gap just now, which means that the Zerg has been squatting here for at least a week. Unfortunately, after a week, no one found them, and they silently made a gap. ”
Shi Xuelin looked at the screen, and a trace of incredulity flashed in her eyes.
The man touched his chin: "Something." ”
Shi Pojian's face was blank, and Lin Mo's words seemed to hit him in the face hard.
"How can you be sure it's a week, not three?" Jin Na subconsciously shouted.
"The fixity of the traces, of course." Lin Mo didn't plan to talk to Jin Na more, "I'm going to continue going now, the infrared light doesn't indicate danger, of course, if the Zerg suddenly attacks me, I can't resist." After saying that, he smiled.
Shi Xuelin's heart suddenly tightened, and she held up the screen: "You must be careful." ”
The man glanced at Shi Xuelin and said with a smile: "Worried about it?" ”
"Why do you have such a strange taste in your words?" Shi Xuelin glanced at him.
Lin Mo adjusted the adaptability of his body, although he was wearing an oxygen suit, there was always an urgent feeling of depression that rushed directly from his chest to his head. In addition to the sound of the wind, it was the sound of him inserting an icebreaker into the wall, which made people panic.
"I remember the last time I was in the workshop discussing whether all the animals in the ocean are extinct, after all, the sea is all frozen, there are no tides and currents, how long can we exist," Jin Na said. I remember that Lin Mo said at the time that there must be animals in the ocean, and there must be more than one species, and there may be mammals, because the oxygen content in the ocean does not change due to changes in the atmosphere. The filterability of the sea takes this into account, and the absence of the tides is more terrible than the oxygen content of the ocean. ”
Shi Xuelin's eyes lit up: "What did Lin Mo say? ”
"Yes, I did." Lin Mo suddenly slid down and dropped nearly a hundred meters directly!
The two soldiers on the top shook their bodies and quickly pulled the ropes, and the fixing frames on both sides dragged the basalt stones on both sides.
"Don't rush too much."
Lin Mo's pupils shrank, and the energy of the oxygen suit seemed to have stopped supplying.
On the wall, there are two palm-sized imprints, but instead of a zerg, they resemble a lion's palm print!
He carefully touched the two marks, and a lightning-fast image crossed his mind: a lion did his best, desperately running up and down to the summit before dying of drunken oxygen. It's fast, it's agile and it's brave, it's two meters in one step. It makes use of the wall...... No, this palm print is not covered because it was printed in the past few days, not a long time ago!
Lin Mo's whole body was shocked, he didn't tell Shi Xuelin about this discovery.
"A lion running with all his might......" he muttered to himself. The force of this palm print falling was not small, he couldn't calculate the amount of force, but it was estimated to be at least two hundred kilograms.
'Goo! Suddenly there was a strange sound in the wind!
Shi Xuelin's face changed, and she shouted, "Lin Mo, be careful!" ”
Lin Mo's body shook, and the rope suddenly broke!
"Oops, the rope is broken, we can't pull him up!"
How can a rope break?
Lin Mo didn't have time to think about it, and the icebreaker slammed into the wall.
He watched the rope fall before a sound came from it for a long time.
"There are still two hours left in the energy, and if I climb up, I can still go back." Lin Mo raised his head, and his breathing gradually became thicker.
The mountains look up and see endlessly.
A hint of decisiveness and determination flashed in his eyes!
"I'm not going up." He pulled the rope and pulled it back quickly. After a short time, the break of the rope came to him, and he looked at the break repeatedly and found that it was the lack of toughness of the rope itself, which caused the break.
Then, it's not man-made or Zerg sabotage.
In order to reduce the burden, he untied the rope, looked down, and threw it three meters to the left.
'Woo. 'Boom.
He suddenly looked into the distance, and there seemed to be a 'coo' from there. ’
"This is my first step to witness this great era, how can I retreat!" Lin Mo pulled out the icebreaker blade and descended sharply!
"He's falling like crazy!"
"Crazy?"
"Lin Mo, even if it's a desperate situation, you have to save hope!"
Shi Xuelin looked at Jin Na in confusion, but Jin Na didn't understand, so she could only look at the man next to her.
He smiled slightly and said elegantly, "It's just ...... Collapse in despair. After that, he stretched out his hand: "I'll solve this little thing, how about you go to the restaurant at the old intersection and order me a table of good dishes?" ”
