Chapter 83: Eat well and fight
The number of mutant dogs is not very large.
These nimble alopecia dogs chased the convoy for more than a kilometer, leaving behind hundreds of corpses before slowly stopping and no longer pursuing the convoy.
"Stop shooting, report casualties." Li Yao's voice sounded from the walkie-talkie.
There were no reports of injuries or deaths, and the mutant dog could not help the humans hiding in the car, and the convoy did not stop and continued to move forward. Zhou Yan pushed the window armor up, looked at the lush plants outside the window, and didn't know what to think.
It's almost October, and according to the lunar calendar, it's still early August.
Although autumn began very early, the temperature did not really drop, of course, today is a cloudy day, the temperature is okay, neither cold nor hot.
Perhaps it was three or four months after the disappearance of human beings, the wild forces of nature exploded, and weeds grew vigorously in the farmland on both sides of the village, and the dog's tail grass was almost half a human high, waving in the breeze.
Pheasants and waterfowl hovered over the farmland in the distance, and large numbers of sparrows flocked in flocks.
"Hey, hey, look at the regimental commander, it's an eagle!"
Zheng Jingjing pointed out the window of the car and shouted.
Zhou Yan turned his head and looked in the direction of her finger, only to see a big black and gray bird, grabbing a white waterfowl and flying into the sky.
I don't know if it's an eagle, but at least a bird of prey.
This surprised him: "I haven't seen an eagle for many years, but I didn't expect there to be an eagle living in Anhui." He was born and raised in Hefei, and he saw eagles when he was a child, but when he grew up, the eagles gradually disappeared, and he did not see this bird of prey for more than ten or twenty years.
Unexpectedly, as soon as humans disappeared, the eagles came to grab the territory.
Shaking his head, he stopped paying attention to the birds.
……
The convoy kept moving forward, and although there was no continued situation on the road, the situation encountered made people's hearts furious.
Because on the way from Guhe Town to Quanjiao County, I found two different worlds, both of which are not big, and there are no alien monsters, but the style is very different from the global environment.
One of the different worlds is full of black rocks, and among the survivors there is a geology expert who can tell at a glance that this is a coal mine.
"This other world is a coal mine, and it is a very pure open-pit coal mine, such a large reserve, although it is not as good as Huainan Coal Mine, but the quality is better!"
The geology expert said excitedly.
The largest coal mine in Anhui is the Huainan Coal Mine, with tens of billions of tons of reserves, mainly in the open pit. And this other world, which was quickly named "Black Coal World", is basically not a mine, it is directly coal, relatively pure coal, which contains very few impurities, and can be directly used as fuel.
The world of black coal is basically a wealth from the sky, but for the survivors, there is not much meaning, and there is no guarantee of survival, who cares what coal mine.
The other world is far away, and the pathfinder team goes to explore it briefly and brings back some rock samples.
According to the analysis of geologists, the composition of these rocks, some of which resemble volcanic rocks, has dense pores on them. So it was named "Volcano World", and with the previous "Wild Dog World", the number of other worlds has reached six.
"How did our earth become like this, shouldn't it be fully invaded by another world?" Some survivors expressed bewilderment.
"Can anyone tell me how these other worlds came to be?"
"I think it may be that we live in the matrix, like "The Matrix", but in fact, none of this is true, it is the world made by the matrix, and we are the crop batteries of robots."
"Maybe someone has combined Resident Evil and The Matrix to develop a brand new game, and we've been called into closed beta."
Ordinary people who strengthened the regiment were bored in the car and let their imagination run wild.
This is already a daily repertoire, and basically the content of everyone's chat every day will more or less revolve around the other world.
Zhou Yan also thought about the origin of the other world more than once, but unfortunately he couldn't explain it at all.
Many people have seen with their own eyes that what was once a good place suddenly became a different world, without any warning and without any gradual process.
But Zhou Yan had a very firm idea in his heart - all this was made up by aliens!
The unexplained other world, the unexplained nanobots, to say that there is no connection between each other, Zhou Yan will never believe it.
As the understanding of nanobot swarms deepens, the idea grows stronger.
Because many of the scientific and technological means of nanobot swarms are completely contrary to the laws of physics. The one-ton variety ore was absorbed casually, and I don't know what it was transformed into or where it was stored. Even if it is a ton of waste paper, the energy generated should not only make a high-energy pistol.
Such incredible technology is beyond the scope of science that he can understand.
It is believed that it is not impossible for aliens with such powerful scientific and technological capabilities to change the earth's environment.
It's just that the aliens went to great lengths to make all this, and for what?
There is no way to explain it.
……
When the convoy entered Quanjiao County, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
The county seat no longer exists, and there are ruins everywhere, the traces of bombing are clearly visible, and the steel structures of some buildings have been melted down by the bombs.
Roads are also dilapidated, and bomb craters are everywhere.
"There is a garrison in Chuzhou, it must be caused by them, it should be an abnormality here, and the army has to bomb the county town of Quanjiao." Li Yao said with certainty.
Tao Jinyong looked at the ruins in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "When do you think this happened?" ”
"Look at the grass growing in the crater, no matter how you say it, it will be before the moon, it is likely to be the beginning of the end of the world."
"Could it be fighting zombies?"
"I don't know, but there is no other world near Quanjiao County."
"What now, regiment commander, political commissar, shall we camp here to rest, or continue to walk and go to Chuzhou City to have a look?" Kuai Xuhui asked, Quanjiao is a county below Chuzhou.
"Is there a signal, can you raise the drone and see the surrounding situation?"
"The signal strength is still not enough, something is interfering all the time, it seems that it is not the interference of the black magnetic world, but a wide range of interference, especially in the communication frequency band, which is very large."
"Then find a good location first, camp and rest, the pathfinder team is lucky, and then go to the surrounding area to explore the way, it is best to go to Chuzhou, if Chuzhou is also the case, we will go directly to Nanjing in the afternoon."
The third battalion was responsible for pathfinding.
The other six battalions began to set up camp, and as the commander of the sixth battalion, Zhou Yan's work was also very busy, and he had to arrange patrols to ensure that the reinforced regiment was camped in an orderly manner, and once there was danger, he could immediately find out and quickly prepare and set off.
From half-past twelve, he was busy until one o'clock, and then it was his turn to eat.
Lunch is very simple, consisting of dry foods such as grilled meat and rice balls, and hot soup made from insect bones.
Zhou Yan's appetite is huge, in order to fill the hot clip of the high-energy pistol as soon as possible, he can't care about the eyes of outsiders, he eats barbecue non-stop, and drinks high-calorie bone broth non-stop.
In the end, he also asked Zheng Jingjing to take some more barbecue from the cooking class and put it in the car, and eat it slowly when he was fine.
"Commander, I think that according to your way of eating, we will soon run out of food." Zheng Jingjing looked at Zhou Yanguang's stomach that couldn't be eaten, and said faintly.
Zhou Yan's body heat was full, and the high-energy pistol hot clip also reached 200,000 calories, and he replied calmly: "If you don't eat enough, how can you have the strength to fight." ”
