Chapter 16: The Beast Tide Strikes
After paying a little worship to her own temple, Bi Yuwei began to devote herself to the study of steel coffins again.
The technology of this steel coffin is very advanced compared to today's people, after all, it is human technology before the end of the world. It can ensure that the people on board can escape in the worst situation. It can be said that the technical content of this small escape pod is no worse than that of a colonial spaceship. It's the equivalent of a miniature one-man spaceship.
For this kind of high-tech escape pod, if it were an ordinary person after the end of the world, it would be impossible to decipher its structure. After all, no one in this world can build a spaceship, and without the support of basic civilization, wanting to open this magical escape pod through primitive means is basically the same as a primitive person knocking on a satellite, tossing blindly!
But Bi Yuwei is different, she is extremely talented, and she has a natural intuition about mechanical structures. I saw her keep analyzing the route along the outer wall of the escape capsule, and then looked east, west, and felt everywhere, and actually succeeded in finding the hidden control area of the escape capsule.
The integrated panel of the control area was pried open, and what appeared in front of Bi Yuwei was a large and very complex optical path connection.
If ordinary people would have been dazzled, but the miraculous thing is that Bi Yuwei, who has no teacher, actually tossed around in it casually, and unlocked this escape pod in this way.
With a sound like a deflating sound, the door of the escape pod, which looked like a steel coffin, opened.
And at this time, Lin Chen actually woke up.
Although his consciousness was awake, the weight of his soul and the fatigue from the horror to the point of explosion made Lin Chen's whole person in a hazy state of dizziness.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a little girl appear in front of him.
"Gold, give me gold! Come on! ”
Lin Chen, who was in instinct, mustered all his strength and said the last sentence, and then the whole person fell asleep again.
"Huh!"
Bi Yuwei, who couldn't speak, let out a strange sound. Then she instantly held up a whiteboard that read, "Who are you?" Wake up! I have so many more questions for you! ”
It's a pity that Lin Chen, who has already slept like a dead pig, can see these words.
The undying Bi Yuwei even pulled Lin Chen's eyelids away, and then shook the whiteboard in front of him.
"Hey! Wake up! Feed!!! ”
"Is it broken?"
"Then I'll give you another start!"
Seeing how he fiddled with Lin Chen's eyelids, this guy didn't react. Bi Yuwei is ready to start her ultimate.
Ding Ding Dong!
Cracking sound!
Bi Yuwei uses her own professional methods to start various machines, such as what is the 45-degree oblique strike, and the medium, high and low voltage and then impact。。。。。。
There were all kinds of wonderful sound and light effects on the roof of the building, so at first glance, I thought that Bi Yuwei was looking for Transformers!
It's a pity that Lin Chen's deep sleep is too serious, and the whole person sleeps soundly. Obviously, he was beaten to the point that his nose and face were swollen, and his seven orifices were smoking, but he still slept as steadily as Mount Tai!
Bi Yuwei, who has worked hard for a long time and has not seen results, can't help but be a little dumbfounded!
That's how she usually repairs equipment! Why is it useless for this living dead man lying in a coffin?
If Lin Chen woke up at this time, he would probably fall asleep again by this little girl. How can anyone repair people as machines, this girl's head must have been caught by the door panel when she was a child!
Seeing the failure of the restart, Bi Yuwei showed a look of disappointment on her face. The little girl didn't understand at all, didn't this person wake up just now? Why did you ask for gold with a mouth, and then before you could ask, you fell asleep.
And isn't gold just a metal that shimmers with a golden yellow glow? Although some people like to collect this useless metal for their own women, but for Bi Yuwei, this thing is useless. I can't eat it, I can't drink it, and I still have a hard ass when I put it aside!
It's such a strange thing, it's really strange that someone wants it as soon as they wake up! Could it be that this is the money addict I saw in the book?
Bi Yuwei remembers reading in a tattered book that before the end of the world, humans traded with each other with something called red coins!
In what era, whoever has more red coins will be more honorable.
And the equivalent of a red coin is gold.
Therefore, Bi Yuwei instinctively felt that this celestial man who was lying on the corpse was a wealth fan in his previous life!
Thinking about it, Bi Yuwei's little head began to feel sleepy. She's the worst at thinking about these emotional questions!
"Ahh
"I'm so sleepy! Let's go to sleep! ”
Obviously sleepy, the little girl can still stick out a whiteboard from her back, writing her feelings on it. If Lin Chen saw this god-like operation, it was estimated that he would have to complain for three hundred days.
。。。。。。
A week passed quickly.
Bi Yuwei originally wanted to move Lin Chen to her bed, but she found that he was so dead that she couldn't lift her alone.
As for finding someone, forget it, there is no cost, these scavengers will not help! And Bi Yuwei didn't want others to know about Lin Chen's existence.
For people outside, Bi Yuwei just picked up a dead man's coffin and went back. No one would believe that Lin Chen would still be able to wake up.
But for Bi Yuwei, Lin Chen's existence proves that the starry sky is not ethereal, and unlike others say, exploring the starry sky is a big taboo!
Time passed day by day, and Bi Yuwei went down to the ground to look for parts, just to find some gold jewelry.
It's just that these yellow metals are also rare items in the last days. Although no one regards gold as a general equivalent, there are still people who are willing to exchange parts or food for some of these ornaments because of their rarity and beauty.
It's just that the price is far from being comparable to the pre-apocalyptic world.
What's more, it's still pretty rare, and even if you want to redeem it, it depends on whether someone else has it in stock.
So Bi Yuwei worked hard for several days, but she could only find a small amount of gold jewelry from the ruins on the ground. The weight of these pieces of jewelry combined, has not exceeded a hundred grams. For Lin Chen, who was completely unconscious, it was still a drop in the bucket.
However, Bi Yuwei soon made a new discovery, as long as she put these gold jewelry beside Lin Chen, after a night, these gold jewelry would disappear without a trace, leaving only some jewelry on the gems or silver frames.
It seemed that all this gold had been absorbed by Lin Chen's body.
And Lin Chen, who had absorbed a small amount of gold, finally had a trace of blood on his face.
Although she didn't understand how Lin Chen had absorbed the gold, Bi Yuwei, who found it useful, immediately had the motivation.
The little girl began to work tirelessly to collect gold. Even in order to exchange for more gold, she used all the parts she had worked hard to collect to exchange gold with some scavengers.
For those scavengers, exchange this useless gold for useful parts, and then exchange food with the lord. It's a big deal. Of course they were willing to do this kind of business, but the little girl suffered.
After all, around the building where Bi Yuwei lives, the number of zeros that can be collected is limited, and all these valuable parts are exchanged for gold, which causes the little girl to be hungry all this time.
But seeing that Lin Chen's face was gradually improving, and there seemed to be a vague tendency to wake up, the little girl gritted her teeth and continued to persevere. In the little girl's mind, as long as this mysterious person comes to her senses, she can ask him about the starry sky.
Time passed slowly like this, until one day, in the depths of the sea of mist, a terrifying existence suddenly opened its eyes. Under the order of this mysterious existence, a large number of insects and beasts began to riot, and a new wave of insects and beasts was coming.
。。。。。。
Shhhh
Creak!
Roar!!
Bursts of strange roars gradually began to intensify from far and near!
"Hey, buddy, listen! Is there any sound? A tall, lanky scavenger who was searching the ruins said suddenly.
"Hell, what's the sound there? You're too sensitive. This is the heart of our West End, how could there be insects and beasts! If there really is some insect beast suddenly infested, the alarm will definitely sound! A chubby scavenger next to him replied!
You must know that this chubby waste picker has been searching for a long time in the central area of the western part of the city, but he has not found anything, and he is depressed! Now, as soon as he heard the suspicious words of his companion, he immediately became noncommittal.
For those of them who are scavengers, the downtown area should be the safest place. If all the bugs and beasts had come in, they would have burped a long time ago!
As a result, as soon as the fat scavenger finished speaking, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded from above the tall building!
"Woo woo woo ~ "
The high-pitched sound of the alarm broke the quiet sea of mist, and the alarm of the incoming insects and beasts sounded!
Soon there was a slight vibration on the ground, as if thousands of troops were rushing towards the western district.
"Quick, defend quickly, immediately close the cantilever passage between the lord's building and other buildings, and don't let insects and beasts invade the lord's building!"
A middle-aged man with a cold look in his eyes and a straight body commanded to the people below. All of them, under the command of the middle-aged man, hurriedly mobilized.
The insect and beast tide has not been seen for many years, and now it suddenly appeared, catching everyone off guard.
"Steward Huang, there are still many people who haven't come back, do we have to wait for them!" A man who looked like a squad leader said nervously.
"No, take back all the hanging ladders, the safety of the lord's mansion is the most important thing!" Huang Guan said expressionlessly. Obviously, this yellow steward is a rather ruthless person. In his eyes, the safety of the Lord's Mansion was far more important than the lives of a small number of people.
"But..." This squad leader still wants to hold on!
"Execute the order!" Seeing what the other party wanted to say, Steward Huang glanced at him coldly.
"Yes! Yes, I see! Due to the momentum of the Huang Steward, the team leader could only reluctantly give up saving those who were still searching for supplies outside.
At the same time, at the very top of the lord's building, a middle-aged man with a big belly asked with some trepidation, "What's the matter?" What the hell is going on, why is there a sudden invasion of insects and beasts! ”
"Lord Lord, we don't know, just now the life detector detected a large number of insect and beast activities, and then I heard a notification that Lord Huang Steward issued an order to evacuate"
Hearing his guards say that the insects and beasts had invaded, the lord was almost scared! At this time, I still take refuge, take refuge, I should tell everyone quickly, put away the suspension ladder for me and enter the defensive state!
This chubby lord knows all too well about the unprecedented mass extinction. So as soon as I heard about the large-scale insect and beast invasion, I was scared half to death.
These horrible big bugs stuck in his mind.
He was afraid that some insects and beasts would enter his lord's building through the ladder between the buildings, and if that really happened, then the entire building would probably become a nest of insects and beasts, and no one would be spared.
At the same time, a large number of scavengers rushed to the lord's mansion with their lives!
"Hey! Brothers! Pull the ladder over, let me in, let me in! ”
"No, the steward has an order, not to let anyone enter the lord's mansion!"
"Fuck, what a shitty order is this! Let Lao Tzu in! ”
It's a pity that no matter how these people shout, the people of the Lord's Mansion will not reopen the ladder.
Seeing that it was not working, some scavengers shouted: "Steward, steward, I have brought a lot of parts to dedicate to the lord, please let us go in and take refuge!" ”
"Lord Steward, I am willing to be a subordinate of the Lord's Mansion, please let us go in and take refuge!"
All kinds of cries for help were overwhelming, but it was clear that the yellow steward had no regard for the survival of these people at all.
After all, this is the end of the world, human life is not worth anything at all, and the most important responsibility for this steward is to protect the lord's mansion.
In the entire urban area, only the lord's palace has a way to extract clean water sources, and only the safety of water sources can ensure the safety of crop cultivation. Once the Lord's Mansion is destroyed, there will be no clean water source for the entire West End. All people will die of thirst and starvation.
Seeing that the lord didn't care about their lives or deaths, these people immediately panicked.
Most of them had to hurry back to their stations and find a way to strengthen their defenses. Hopefully we can survive this catastrophe. Others are trying to travel to other high-rise buildings. After all, the higher the floor, the more chances there are to stay away from insects and beasts.
At the same time, Bi Yuwei also discovered the beast tide. However, her home was in the most remote location in the entire West End, so she didn't have time to retreat to the Lord's Building.
And Bi Yuwei will not abandon her residence.
This crazy little girl is ready to resist this sudden beast tide with her own strength!
