Chapter 170: Gift of Glory (I)

The underground cavern in front of it is very large, visually equivalent to a football field, and it is clearly a cave dug by hand. Many lamps are installed on the top of the cave to simulate daylight, and the whole cave is also equipped with constant temperature and humidity devices, and the temperature here is quite comfortable.

"Dash...... Da ...... Da ......"

Song Ming, who was attracted by the cave, didn't notice the sound in his ears, and the cave in front of him was divided into four neat areas, with neat shelves, and a very beautiful white flower was planted on the shelves.

"Dash...... Da ......"

"It's ...... Seasonal flowers? ”

The expression on Song Ming's face was quite weird, Dominic hid it so carefully and so hidden, just to plant these moon flowers?

No treasures, no munitions, only moon flowers!

What are you kidding!?

"Dash...... Da ......"

The irritable Song Ming finally noticed the voice in his ears: "What kind of sound is this?" ”

[Radiation index. Xiao Su pointed to the data in the lower left corner of the retinal projection, which is the area connected to the assault armor, which shows that the radiation intensity in this cave is 1280 millisieverts, which is already a very high lethal level (the natural radiation received by ordinary people every year is 1000-2000 microsieverts, 1000 microsieverts = 1 millisievert). Workers associated with radiation have a maximum radiation dose of 5 millisieverts a year, and a one-time exposure of 4,000 millisieverts can cause death. )

Song Ming's face turned white, and he retreated in an instant: "Can the attack armor protect against this level of radiation!?" ”

[Rest assured, the Assault Armor was designed with the needs of special operations in mind, so radiation of this strength is no problem.] 】

Xiao Su gave a thumbs up and grinned at Song Ming: [As long as you are not exposed to the direct exposure of the nuclear bomb radiation, there will be no problem - of course, if you remove the assault armor here...... Then you can prepare for the aftermath. 】

"Hoo ......"

Song Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then he was suddenly stunned: "Wait! Why is there such a high level of radiation in this cave? ”

Xiao Su reminded Song Ming: [There are radiation sources everywhere here. 】

Song Ming's gaze fell on the soilless cultivated moon flowers on the shelf: "The radiation intensity here is so high, how can these moon flowers still live?" ”

[They are the source of radiation themselves......]

Xiao Su waved his hand: [Don't ask me why, I'm not an all-knowing and all-powerful God. Isn't there a room in there? Maybe there's a clue in it, and if you want to know the answer, you can explore it yourself. 】

Song Ming pondered for a moment, the radiation index on the attack armor remained high, but at the same time, it was also consuming energy to resist the radiation outside, so he should still be very safe now.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and walked into the cave again under the strong radiation.

The beauty of those moon flowers on the shelves is amazing, all of them are white as if they are glowing, the fat leaves are like beautiful jade, faintly exuding a transparent luster under the light, the moon flowers are mainly red or pink, white varieties are rare, but like this white pure moon flowers, it is even rarer.

Song Ming came to the front of the strange house, pushed open the heavy lead door and walked in, the house was very simplely arranged, only one floor, and some chemical tools were placed in it, which looked very much like extraction tools.

"How do you feel that Dominic is extracting these seasonal flowers? What does he want to do? Do you sell essential oils? ”

Song Ming rarely complained, in fact, if he contacted the clues he found before, the situation could be roughly guessed - this kind of moon flower that can survive in a strong radiation environment has obviously undergone some kind of unknown mutation, and the kind of "gift glory" that Dominic has mastered in large quantities is likely to be produced using the extract of this moon flower, and this cave is where he planted the moon flower.

Song Ming turned on a computer and asked him to enter the password after a while: "Xiao Su." ”

[Got it.] 】

Xiao Su snapped his fingers: [It's done, there is no challenge at all.] 】

Song Ming was already surprised by the commander's super electronic intrusion ability, he glanced at the hard disk with a capacity of petabytes, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Xiao Su, find something, keyword...... Seasonal flowers or gifts of glory. ”

You're lazy. 】

Xiao Su grimaced, and then the computer screen in front of Song Ming began to beat rapidly, a large number of windows popped up and were closed, and a directory and path were generated on the desktop, and after a while, Xiao Su said: [It has been retrieved, almost all the information stored on this computer is about the research of this radiant moon flower, it is recommended that you either move the entire computer or copy these key information. 】

"All of them!?" Song Ming was stunned, "Is there a developer log?" ”

[Yes.] 】

A diary-like software was opened, and it contained video logs of the same person.

Song Ming opened a journal, and the face of a young man appeared on the screen, looking rather sluggish.

July 25, 2070, cloudy.

The weather is still bad, the radiation clouds and nanoclouds covering the sky are mixed together, and they still haven't dissipated after so long, and the occasional glimpse of sunlight is like a gift from God - although as an atheist, I never believe in bullshit God - the rampaging nanobots have finally destroyed the world, can humanity regain civilization? The answer is hard to know, having tasted the beauty of peace, ordinary people don't want to be re-subjected to war, and as a chemist, I don't know how long I can hold out...... By the way, today I accidentally found a beautiful moon flower, which is nothing short of a miracle!

Well, I raised it and decided to name it "Hope".

In the picture, a white moon flower is swaying in a flower pot...... Like an angel.

On July 31, 2070, it was cloudy, and the man in the picture had sunken eyes and a dark face.

It has been more than half a year since the Day of Destruction, but the environment is continuing to deteriorate, the disappearance of a large number of people has completely collapsed the entire world environment, the collapse of the industrial system has made it difficult for the world to support the remaining population, the voice of the coalition government has not appeared for a long time, I can feel that this world that has been unified with great difficulty is collapsing, and what awaits it may be a new "restart"......

I'm getting weaker and weaker, and time is running out for me......

Damn it...... That flower is not hope at all, it is the demon that brings despair!

It's actually releasing radiation!

On August 15, 2070, the man in the picture showed a large number of ulcers and burns on his skin, and his hair seemed to have become much thinner.

The weather was still gloomy, my body was getting worse and worse, the radiation carried by that flower had finally destroyed my body, and now I hated myself so much - how could I clone so much in the first place!? The radiation is getting stronger and stronger, and it has long exceeded the death line, so I can hold out for so long, maybe it all depends on the treatment needles and anti-radiation drugs...... However, anti-radiation agents are becoming less and less...... Dad, remember the Fallout games you taught me to play? Now that the end of the world is really coming, you can search for effective "Radiant Ning" and "Anti-Radiant Ning" all over the place, and Company B is a lie! It doesn't exist at all! It's a shame to know the truth, right?

The speed of thinking in the brain seems to be getting slower and slower...... I really should have mechanized it, at least to live a little longer......

By the way, I decided to analyze this mutated moon flower, this thing can grow in the radiation zone, and even itself has become a radiation source, completely becoming a symbiotic relationship, maybe the key factors of cell mutation can be analyzed from it, if you can find it...... Maybe I can transform myself into a physique that is immune to radiation.

Maybe you can be saved.

August 31, 2070, cloudy.

It was still a day when I couldn't see the sun, so I began to bathe in fluorescent lights, which allowed me to find a sense of being in the sun, and if I could, I really wanted to dive headlong into the public network and end my life in the virtual world, but unfortunately I couldn't...... I'm still going to finish my job.

Without the help of a large server, the analysis efficiency is very slow, but the analysis results of the mutant moon season are finally out, as expected, its rhizomes, leaves, petals and the whole cell have undergone huge mutations in the radiation environment, the chloroplast has undergone strange changes, it absorbs sunlight and carbon dioxide, but at the same time it releases oxygen and constantly releases radiation energy, this process is simply incredible, I can't find the key factor in it - do you want to become a plant-based nuclear power plant? Moon Season Flowers!?

On September 7, 2070, the man in the picture shows his right arm, which is no longer and has become a robotic hand.

The physical condition continues to deteriorate, and there is only one advanced treatment needle left, and I want to keep it for life-saving, so I had to amputate my rotten right arm, fortunately, in order to save trouble, I bought a B-level medical proficient electronic plug-in, although it is expensive, but it has saved me a lot of time, and now it also comes in handy, I reluctantly replaced myself with a mechanical arm that I picked up from the ruins, I have to say that this thing is really powerful!

The results of the analysis of the moon cell are still unclear, its cells are like a miniature nuclear fission power station, absorbing light and carbon dioxide, and then continuously releasing trace amounts of radiation - but when the number increases, the intensity of radiation becomes quite terrifying - if you don't die, you won't die, how can I forget this wise saying?

On September 30, 2070, it was cloudy, and a pale, bald head appeared in the picture.

Yesterday I tried to smash some cloned moonflower and extract its juice, but now I have nothing to fear, my hair has fallen out, and the nanobots of Doom Day didn't kill me, but this damn moonflower is going to kill me! I decided to purify its juice and see if I could find something special......

The environment outside is getting worse and worse, and it is common to see those scavengers trying to get close to here, and then fleeing in the wilderness, probably because the Geiger counter scared them away, hahaha...... Well, I can't laugh anymore.
