The radiation associated with a nuclear explosion is inevitable, the early nuclear radiation is very powerful, can penetrate buildings and the surface, after the explosion is completed, the nuclear radiation will remain in the explosion area for a long time, up to several years or even decades, turning the area into a place of death, some radioactive elements have a half-life of hundreds of millions or even billions of years, longer than the life of the earth, and these substances may take hundreds of billions of years to completely decay. One of the tasks of the Chosen One was to collect and bury radioactive sources everywhere they went.

Long-term radiation can also cause genetic mutations, and the Chernobyl giant rat incident, which was once widely circulated, although it is somewhat exaggerated, also indirectly confirms that radiation can also affect advanced mammals. Lifus once saw a three-winged butterfly, a five-legged frog, etc., the more low-level life forms are affected by radiation, the greater the mutation, plants and invertebrates are greatly affected by radiation, and the mutated forms are also very different, human beings, as the most advanced life forms on this planet, have extremely strong self-repair ability of gene chromosomes, and they are basically not able to be reflected in appearance. Most of the animals that have been mutated by radiation have physical defects, some die soon after birth, and a very small number of mutants have increased cell viability, increased cell divisions, and their bodies are extremely strong and have an extra long lifespan.

The Seventh Group was on a mission in the F379 area in northwestern East Asia, in the Karakoram Mountains of former northwestern China, close to the former Indian-administered Kashmir, a war-ridden triangle where military clashes between India and Pakistan and between India and China seem to have been uninterrupted. After the rise of China, India took the initiative to return the occupied Darak region to China, but due to the high altitude and cold climate here, not many people lived here, so it was also one of the few areas where nuclear bombs were dropped the least during the war.

But no one could have imagined that in this inaccessible place, the seventh group was shamelessly ambushed, and the whole group was killed and wounded.

Like a child abandoned by the world, Lifus now turned on the communication switch on the monkey's watch for the twenty-third time, almost in a rage, and sent out another distress message, and before that, the cockroach had stopped breathing and heartbeat.

The monkey table is a representative scientific and technological product developed by the organization's internal research institute in recent years, which includes a satellite communicator and GPS positioning system, infrared radar scanning system, ultrasonic detector, life thermal image tracker, spectral holographic projection screen, laser laser emitter and gamma ray beam generator, and it is really a watch. The name of the monkey table comes from the "infinite monkey theorem", the theory imagines that a monkey is placed in front of the keyboard, after an infinite number of random keystrokes, the monkey can type all literary works, what "Jane Eyre", "Gone with the Wind", "Dream of Red Mansions", "Hamlet", "Harry Potter", "The Condor Heroes", "A Brief History of Ukrainian Tractors", etc., everything, the same if there are infinite monkeys with an infinite number of keyboard tapping, you can type all the text in an instant, of course, this is a paradox, However, it reflects the truth that is actually very straightforward, that is, as long as you try enough, anything is possible, so the name of the monkey watch shows the power of the monkey watch.

It was clear that Lifus did not have an infinite life for him to call for help indefinitely, and when he called for help for the twenty-third time, there was still no response, but the rumbling sound that gradually came from above the cave wall still showed a hint of relief on his face. That is the noise made by the helicopter's propeller rubbing the air when rotating at high speed, the helicopter has good maneuverability and flexibility that other types of aircraft do not have, can fly at ultra-low altitude, and can land at any time, without the need for a runway, it is generally the preferred model for performing classified tasks and search and rescue exploration, but because of its high fuel consumption and poor endurance, it is difficult to perform long-distance missions, and the birth of particle technology perfectly makes up for this defect of the helicopter.

After the Great War, the world's only remaining advanced scientific and technological equipment, advanced military equipment, and scientific research teams were basically all in the hands of the Achilles League, and the Apocalyptic Army and some civilian armed organizations were only equipped with some conventional weapons, and these conventional weapons were not substantially improved or breakthrough compared with the weapons used in the Gulf War and the US-Iraq War hundreds of years ago, except for smaller calibers, more stable recoil, higher accuracy, greater lethality, and longer range. It's the same compared to World War II weapons.

The closest military base to the F379 area is F375, formerly Hotan, Xinjiang, and the only one who can send helicopters to fly here from there is the Alliance, Lifers has no doubt about this, and the department that can mobilize helicopters has at least a higher level and authority than the Heavenly Chosen Combat Group.

The apocalyptic war perfectly destroyed all the factories on the surface of the earth, steel mills, cotton mills, weapons factories, food processing plants...... All factories were reduced to ashes and rubble in the brutal nuclear explosions, and the factories and military command centers underground were almost entirely in the hands of the League.

Due to the high radiation and low temperatures on the ground, as well as the unpredictable fear and danger that may occur at any time, people have to gradually move their range of activities underground and live like marmots. Since the beginning of the 21st century, countries have been keen to build underground military command posts, such as the Xishan Underground Command Center in Beijing, China, and the White House Underground Command Center in the United States.

The League's underground military factories have assembled and produced several batches of new particle-powered helicopters, which they call "Sons of Apache" and are currently the most advanced armed combat helicopters.

Livers, who had piloted the Son of Apache countless times in the past, knew it well, and even the sound of explosions coming from above the cave could tell that it was the latest 76th generation Hellfire missile. He hid himself under the depression of a boulder to avoid being hit by falling stones, waited for the helicopter to break through the roof of the cave, and then lowered the hanging ladder.

Although he knew that there was little hope of surviving, and although he was somewhat unimpressed by this violent method of rescue, he still longed to be rescued.

However, he soon found that the helicopter did not seem to have any intention of saving him, and continued to pour missiles into the cave after penetrating the thick rock formations above the cave, and after opening the wireless communicator of the monkey watch and trying to contact the helicopter and getting no response, the missiles fired in his direction became more dense and targeted, and Lifus sadly believed that even if he hid under the rock wall at this time, he would not be directly hit by the missiles, and it would not be long before he continued like this. He will also die under a collapsed rock wall or a crumbling rubble.

The rock wall where Lifus lives is a huge limestone, this fragile rock mass common in the karst landscape is particularly vulnerable under the bombardment of the missile bomb, he leans on the rock wall with his body half-hunched sideways, his muscles are a little spasmed due to the high tension of the battle and spirit, but the long-term training and countless battles have allowed him to keep a clear head no matter what the situation, even in such a desperate situation, he has not given up.

Eventually, the entire cave and even half of the mountain began to collapse in the shaking of the earth, and the "Son of Apache" seemed to be sure that no one could survive such a catastrophe, so it carried the wind and sailed away.

Below the cave is a huge mountain cavity formed by the impact of the underground river over the years, the bombing of the missile caused the collapse of the mountain, the whole cave collapsed downward, and Lifus fell down with those huge hard and strange-shaped stones, but he had already used the ray detector to calculate the vertical distance from the cavity ground, and quickly calculated its free fall speed and landing time through the windward area of the radiation protection suit he was wearing, the weight of his own wear and the density of the air, etc., Even the slight errors caused by the humidity and temperature of the air and the latitude of the earth are taken into account, and Lifus has the world's most advanced micro-particle computer transplanted in his head, and these seemingly complex calculations of ordinary people can be completed in a few microseconds, and he never has to worry about making mistakes.

Livers stretched out his limbs as far as he could, and his body fell on his stomach in a "big" shape, increasing the air resistance as much as possible, and when he was close to the ground, his body suddenly and strangely stopped in the air, and then fell to the ground in a frightening and slightly embarrassed way.

It is a pair of high-velocity air jets, or boosters, powered by high-pressure oxygen carried by a life-sustaining system to assist in jumps and short flights, mounted on radiation suits with the back and shoulders to maximize balance. This is an optional piece of equipment that most of the team didn't carry because it was heavy, and it made people look silly when they wore it, like a low-looking futuristic soldier from some comics centuries ago.

The collapse continued, and the dazzling stones fell from above, but they could no longer pose a threat to Livers's life, because when they were still in mid-air, Livers calculated the trajectory and landing point of these stones, and even the lines changed by hitting each other in the air were counted as good, as long as they found a safe area on the ground before they landed.

As soon as the collapse was over, and the dust had not yet settled, Lifus began to look for a way out. He first turned off the Monkey Watch's communication and GPS system, and he had wondered why the enemy could find him and his team almost without deviation every time, and it was likely that there was a traitor from within the organization who used the Monkey Watch to locate and track him.

Then he turned off the oxygen of the life-sustaining system, opened the vent on the helmet, the air radiation concentration here is not large, compared to the breathing, the oxygen cylinder has not much oxygen left, it must be saved, in case the radiation is too large after going out, he has to rely on this oxygen to support him to the nearest base, or until he contacts a member of an organization, although he knows that he has been exposed to high-intensity nuclear radiation at close range, although there is a radiation protection suit, but the organ cells have begun to show signs of failure, Even if there are advanced T cells in the body, there is nothing that can be done, and it is optimistically estimated that it can last for about two more weeks, and the whereabouts of the peregrine falcon are unknown, and he may be the only survivor of the seventh group, so he must find the organization alive and find out who is behind the scenes, which can be regarded as revenge for the brothers of the seventh group and himself.
