Chapter 59: A Torrential Rainstorm
There was no way, so Ai Li had to command the team to take shelter from the rain on a high ground. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThere is an old tree in this high ground that can shelter some of the rainstorms.
Ai Li sat in a daze in the mecha, blocking out the noisy rain outside the mecha.
She severed the nerve connection, and her vision returned to her own eyes. She leaned back, her long legs crossed leisurely, lying on the seat of the mecha cockpit, and the surrounding vision in front of her still showed the scenery outside the mecha.
The silent rainstorm was still raging, and the path I had just walked was flooding like a stream at this time. In a trance, Ai Li seemed to remember a scene from her childhood, when a flood broke out in her hometown, and the disaster basin reached the highest water level in history, and Ai Li, who was still a primary school student, was awakened by the movement of her parents in the middle of the night. They woke up in the middle of the night, turned on the TV worriedly, and watched the 24-hour rolling news of the floods.
At that time, Ai Li didn't know how dangerous the disaster was, but the sound of rain outside the window was similar to when she had just fallen into the mud.
Looking at the heavy rain that was reluctant to stop for a while, Ai Li was bored and wanted to sleep for a while, when suddenly someone was prompted to access the call in her field of vision. It's Chen You!
Ai Li clicked to answer, and Chen You's face appeared in the video in the lower left corner of the field of vision.
"Shhh...... hiss......" The picture kept flashing, and Chen You's smiling face was a little stuck, "Ai ...... Hiss...... Did it go well? ”
The heavy rain actually interfered with the communication signal, and Ai Li had to barely recognize it and replied: "Everything is going well, but the rain is too heavy, and it temporarily blocks my movement." ”
――――――
"Shhh...... Smoothly...... Hiss...... It's big, it's blocked for the time being...... Hiss...... Marching. On the holographic table in front of Chen You, Ai Li's signal was seriously disturbed, probably caused by super heavy rain, or terrible thunderstorms accompanied by heavy rain.
Whether it was heavy rain or signal interference, Chen You was a little worried: "Then you find a safe place to hide first, I think this rain is really strange!" ”
Ai Li's video image has been stuck due to signal interference, and only the voice comes intermittently: "Hiss...... Rest assured, hiss...... Hiss...... Stop and go! ”
"Okay, watch your surroundings! Communication complete! ”
"Done!"
Chen You leaned back in his chair, turned his chair and looked out the window of the command post, only to see that the thick rain clouds were still gathering, it should be the sky during the day, at this time, it seemed to be gradually entering the night, and the roaring rain showed no sign of stopping......
――――――
After the communication was cut off, Ai Li continued to lie down in the cockpit, trying to close her eyes for a while, because in such a heavy rain, even the danger of being attacked was very small.
Ai Li, who had her eyes closed, suddenly felt the light that penetrated her eyelids dimmed, she sat up, and found that because of the rain clouds that had accumulated in the sky, the sky and the earth were dark at this time, and it was no different from night.
This kind of strange weather has never been seen on Earth. Even the most violent storms can make the day a little darker at best, and it is impossible to be as dark as night. Ai Li was a little flustered, and said on the team channel: "All units, please report the status." ”
Reports from the squad channel that all members are in normal condition and have not found any threats.
"Keep on your guard, it's a bit ...... this weather"
Click!!!
Before Ai Li could finish his words, a muffled thunder descended directly two hundred meters in front of the team, and the thunder light illuminated the surroundings in an instant, and at that moment flashed like an overexposed photo.
Ai Li hurriedly measured the probability of lightning strikes at the current location according to the terrain data of the accompanying eye demon bee. Fortunately, although this is a small piece of high ground, it is still low-lying and the probability of lightning strikes is not high. Just in case, Ai Li ordered the whole team to lower their body and stand by.
As the minutes ticked by, the rain seemed to light up, but the sky was still as good as night. There was an intermittent sound of lightning strikes in the distance, some large and some small.
Gradually, Ai Li realized that something was wrong. She noticed that not far behind her, the sound of lightning strikes in an area was gradually becoming more and more intense, as if lightning was constantly falling in the same place.
Lightning rod? Could it be that there are buildings? Ai Li guessed. She turned around, and the mecha's 360° vision allowed her to see behind her, in the darkness, faintly visible not far away, flashing thunder from time to time.
Want to check it out? Ai Li was conflicted. But the bad weather made her even more likely to adopt a conservative strategy.
Maybe you'll find out what......
"Help me ......"
Ai Li's heart was shocked, and she heard a weak voice in her ear! "Help me ......"
She involuntarily looked around the cockpit, there was no one else in the dark cockpit, but the voice seemed to be close to her.
In this dark jungle, there is an eerie super rainstorm outside the mecha, and there is an area behind that is constantly thundering.
Click!
Another thunderbolt that befell the same place.
"Help me!"
With this flash of lightning, the voice that Ai Li thought was her hallucination came very clearly.
Ai Li's hairs stood up for a while, and she suddenly found that the voice was not heard by her own ears, but directly in her head!
Moreover, Ai Li's spirit sensed that the voice of the cry for help came from the place where lightning was constantly struck!
Ai Li turned the mech around, facing the area where the lightning struck constantly.
What's going on there? Who's calling for help? Ai Li looked vigorously and turned on the enhanced visual effects of the mecha.
The zoomed-in image couldn't tell what was going on there nearly a kilometer away, because the rain was so heavy.
Ai Li hesitated in the darkness for a moment.
Then, in the constant flashing lightning and pouring rain, the mecha with a shark paint on its chest set off with the team towards the area where the lightning was constantly struck.
――――――
Inside the command post, Chen You suddenly remembered something. He quickly got up and rushed into the open space of the base in the torrential rain. Seeing Chen You suddenly get up, the flying squirrel also rushed into the rain.
When I came to the unsheltered open space, I directly felt how heavy the rain was. In the night vision mode automatically activated by the light battle shell, only a dim and chaotic rain world was seen, and Chen You could only identify the direction according to the terrain and building prompts that enhanced his vision; The noisy sound of rain roared in his ears, and he could barely hear any other sounds, and the bean-sized raindrops continued to knock on the armor of Chen You's light battle shell, booming. I don't know if it's an illusion, Chen You only felt that the cold brought by the rain seemed to soak through the battle shell......
He hurried a few steps to the hole*** because of the mud and accidentally slipped a little. I saw that because of the heavy rain, several streams have appeared, and the water continues to pour into the cave.
Chen You ran to the cave in one go, and the mud in the cave was wet and slippery. When I arrived at the innermost space, I saw that the deepest part had turned into a shallow pool of water. At a glance, Chen You saw several small dinosaur apes huddled on a slightly taller island. Dian Wei, who was dispatched, arrived, and Chen You put the little dinosaur apes on the mecha one by one, and several of them were soaked with fluff and looked pitiful.
"I won't live here anymore." Although he knew that the little dinosaurs couldn't understand, Chen You still said, and kept stroking them who were shivering, "In the future, I will live in the warehouse, without wind and rain." ”
Dian Wei carried a few little guys to the outside of the cave, and Chen You followed. Trek to the entrance of the cave, and on the right hand side is the cell built according to the situation. The cell is on high ground and inside the cave, so there is no risk of flooding or rain, and the temperature is still normal at this time, so there is no need to worry about Lan's safety.
Chen You turned his head to look at Lan in the prison cell, and found that she was lying on her side on the ground, and her posture was a little unnatural. Chen You walked a few steps and suddenly noticed that something was wrong.
The life recognition system in the field of vision can detect life from a distance based on signs such as body temperature and heartbeat, and at this time, the information in the field of vision shows that Lan's status is "dead"!
