Chapter 38: Dark Shadows in the Sky

Because the city is almost covered by glaciers formed by seawater, much of the freshwater resources that were once stored under a thick layer of ice, and now there is very little precipitation, resulting in an extreme shortage of freshwater resources.

This time, the team's mission is to find fresh water. Because of the perennial low temperatures, it was so difficult to find liquid fresh water, so they had to look for ice cubes to transport back to places where fresh water might exist.

The supply truck drove quietly on the ice, there was no snow on the day, and the vast ice field seemed extremely empty and unusually silent.

"Do you think it's too quiet today?" Yu Hao and the three of them paid attention to every move around them in the cab, according to normal times, although they would not see any creatures for a few days, but at least they could find some footprints and sounds from afar, but today a full half of the day has passed, and it is still silent.

"Isn't that a good thing?" Another member of the team said that his name was Fang Huai, and he was an important person in the team who was responsible for the use and daily maintenance of the instrument.

"That's not necessarily," Zhu Zifeng felt exactly the same as Yu Hao and them, the so-called thing must be a demon, and he also felt that something was wrong, "If there are no creatures in a large area, it means that we may break into the territory of a very powerful mutated creature, so no other creature dares to enter." ”

"No, Captain, we've traveled hundreds of kilometers today, and the deterrent power of something can be so strong," another team member named Shen Lin said, "Even if there is, our material truck is not vegetarian, even a level five or six mutant creature can easily crush it, even if there is a level seven mutant creature, the heavy weapons we carry can be eliminated." ”

"Maybe there's a stronger mutated creature?" Luo Xiao muttered.

"You're too daring, aren't you? What's more, there are only a few mutated creatures above level 7 in the world, they are all entrenched in their fixed territory, and it is impossible to encounter them at such a distance! Another member of the team who is more senior said.

In addition to Yu Hao, there are a total of five members of the team, and they don't have any opinions on Yu Hao's joining, after all, being able to kill a fifth-level mutant creature is not something that ordinary people can do, and Xu Yun has some first-aid knowledge, but Luo Xiao is just a person who blends in by relationship in their eyes, although no one says anything because of Yu Hao's face, but they almost think so in their hearts.

Luo Xiao was bored with himself, and immediately closed his mouth, he could also see that his teammates were unfriendly, but it was just the last day, the patience was over, and he would never see each other again, in this case, why waste his energy to be angry with them?

Yu Hao patted Luo Xiao's shoulder and said, "But it's better for everyone to be cautious, there are indeed some abnormalities that have not encountered mutant creatures for most of the day, maybe there is really some danger." ”

Everyone saw that Zhu Zifeng, who was the captain, also nodded, and immediately closed his mouth, although it is rare to encounter more advanced mutant creatures, it is not that there has been no such incident, a few years ago, a team sent out by an underground base in the Western Continent to carry out a mission encountered a powerful creature mutated into an elephant creature, and the height of more than twenty meters directly destroyed a car of people, which was a tragedy that shocked the whole world.

"Captain, there has been a massive snowfall in the E3 area twenty kilometers ahead recently, and the terrain there is relatively rugged, there should be a lot of freshwater ice."

Zhu Zifeng glanced at the map and nodded: "Then go directly to the E3 area at full speed, and we will return immediately after collecting enough fresh water, I have a feeling that I can't say, everyone will go early and return early!" ”

"Whew!" A dark shadow suddenly swept over their heads, although it was only for a moment, but after a long time outside, everyone had adapted to this dim environment, and this subtle change was still noticed by them.

"Do you feel it?" Gu Fan, who was driving, suddenly stepped on the brakes.

"You feel it all, too?" Zhu Zifeng's face changed, and it didn't seem to be his own delusion.

"There seems to be something above their heads," Yu Hao was looking out the window just now, and clearly saw the dark shadow, but the top of his head was a blind spot in their vision, and he couldn't see what it was at all, "Brother Fang, have you found it?" ”

"No, the on-board radar and cameras can't be seen, could it be that you are mistaken?" Fang Huai repeatedly confirmed his results.

"No, since everyone has noticed, it can't go wrong, I can only say that the speed of that thing is too fast!" Zhu Zifeng ordered, "Fang Huai, don't turn off the camera and radar, keep an eye on the situation above our heads at any time!" ”

"Okay captain!"

......

Dozens of minutes passed, and it seemed that the black shadow was just passing by, and there was no more wind and grass, and everyone's alertness slowly lowered, and they had reached their destination.

"Everyone get out of the car, don't go too far, and report immediately if you find fresh water!" Everyone skillfully put on the exoskeleton armor, except for Yu Hao, who is purple, everyone else's is black, because of the identity of the enhancer, the base is specially equipped with special armor for him, this purple armor improves the strength and defense ability of more than three times that of other armor, only those who have been strengthened can have enough physical fitness to drive it.

"If only this thing could be brought back to school." Luo Xiao couldn't put down the exoskeleton armor, but the school emblem reminded him that most of the things in the mirror world could not be brought out of the mirror world, and this armor was one of them, which made him depressed for a while.

"Hehe, what is this thing, I think in the School of Mechanics, there are things that are a hundred times more powerful than this, as long as you have enough credits, you can get a Gundam out of it." Yu Hao smiled, "Let's go, let's go on the task first, don't get distracted, I always feel that that thing didn't go far just now!" ”

......

After dozens of minutes of searching, they finally found a large amount of fresh water at the bottom of an ice pit, which was hundreds of tons, and it should be more than enough to fill the supply truck.

There is an ice breaker on the material truck, but it will take a while to complete these projects, Fang Huai walked into the car and controlled everything around through the instrument, while the rest of the people gathered around the machine.

"Huh, I didn't think that thirty days would have passed like this, except for the first day, the rest was really easy!" Luo Xiao sighed.

"yes, I don't know how many people are still alive." Xu Yun looked at the time, there were still more than twenty minutes before they returned, "By the way, Yu Hao, what should we do in a while?" Is it just here to change and disappear? ”

"Hahaha, what does it matter?" Yu Hao smiled, "Anyway, it's unlikely that we will come here again in the future, how to report our disappearance is their business, what are you talking about." ”

"That's right!" Xu Yun felt that she was really thinking too much.

"How about you report on the harvest?" Yu Hao suddenly said, "I got a total of 2230 credits, two comprehensive test scores, what about you?" ”

"I have 570 credits!"

"I have 850 points, but it's a pity that there aren't so many mutated creatures for us to kill." Luo Xiao sighed.

"Come on, no one else's name is gone, it's good that we have these gains, and the principal can't give us such a good opportunity to brush up points, be content!" Yu Hao scolded with a smile.

"Lookout, there's something coming up here...... Wait a minute...... Oh my god, how could there be something so big! Suddenly, Fang Huai shouted frantically in the communication system, "Hide, hide!" ”
