"Understood." Wu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. This gives him a hint of comfort in his 'chaotic good' camp tendencies.

Like all birds of prey, the dragon will drag its captured prey back to its nest and savor it slowly. So many 'unexpected things' were brought back together. For example, the Zhibao lighter in the hands of the leader of the remnants.

It was by quietly picking up garbage while the fire dragon was asleep, and the remnants hiding in the bomb shelter survived the cruel and bloody era at the beginning.

As they broke through the closed gates and walls, the bomb shelter grew in size, and finally there was an exit away from the dragon's lair, allowing them to rummage through the nearby ruins for whatever they needed.

The Dragon's Lair has the advantage of the Dragon's Lair.

Just like all powerful creatures have their own territory. The ruins around the lair-owning she-dragon are fairly well preserved. Even after a full winter, no one has picked up the ruins. So all kinds of equipment and materials were dismantled and transported to underground bomb shelters, and gradually, their lives began to take a turn for the better.

It wasn't until he met the chief's wife, who was said to have been a docent, that Wu Chen understood what had happened to them.

"Did you eat lizardmen?" Although the wife of the leader of the remnants has not yet turned into the typical half-orc appearance of the lizard owner, there are obvious scaling phenomena all over her body. Especially...... near the navel. By the way, is she also a dragon scale?

"Hmm." The pain of the bereaval leaders was on their faces.

Compared to the well-to-do residents of the Eighteenth Tier, the remnants of the guild hall, who are accustomed to eating all kinds of minced meat falling from the cracks of the dragon's teeth, should have no resistance to eating lizardmen.

"I really can't help with that." Wu Chen shook his head. The only person who can help them is Ophelia. However, Wu Chen did not bring the beautiful snake into the world of the Fire Dragon Empire. The TT40 is A.I, yes, but the knowledge of biochemistry is extremely limited.

Wu Chen before refusing. Already asked about the TT40. The answer is no.

"What if we knew a solution?" The leader of the remnants was not surprised.

"Then I can help." Wu Chen was actually very disgusted by this kind of dialogue full of all kinds of cautious temptations and cautious tricks. Perhaps, from the moment he learned that they ate minced meat, Wu Chen lacked a good impression of these people.

"Wife." The leader of the remnants was sure that Wu Chen was not perfunctory, so he turned around and called a woman covered with scales.

"My lord, I don't know if you've heard of Project 861?" The woman couldn't wait to speak.

Chongqing 816 Underground Nuclear Project.

How could Wu Chen not have heard of it, and he also visited it when he came to Chongqing for a tour!

1967 year. A special forces unit secretly stationed in the mountains of Fuling to excavate an underground nuclear plant. It was the Chongqing 816 underground nuclear plant that was built to serve the production of atomic bombs. It is known as "the world's first artificial cave". The total investment of the project is 740 million yuan. By the time the construction was stopped in 1984, 85% of the construction work and 60% of the installation work had been completed. In April 2002, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense issued a declassification order -- the 816 underground giant nuclear military industrial cave was rediscovered to the world.

The depth of the plant in the cave is 400 meters, the top covering layer is up to 200 meters, and the thickness of the covering layer of the core plant is more than 150 meters. Cave 816 can prevent the impact of a 1 million ton equivalent hydrogen bomb from an aerial explosion and a 1,000-pound bomb direct hit, and can also resist the damage of a magnitude 8 earthquake.

For the construction of the project, the entire mountain was hollowed out, and the cave hall has a total of 9 floors and a height of 79.6 meters. The total length is 24 kilometers, and the total area of the main nuclear reactor plant is 13,000 square meters. The amount of stone excavated during the construction of the cave is 1.51 million cubic meters, and if these stone slags are built into a one-meter square stone wall, it can be as long as 1,500 kilometers!

There are a total of 19 large and small openings around the mountain, and according to different plans, there are personnel entrances and exits, car passage holes, exhaust tunnels, drainage ditches, warehouses, etc.; There are 18 large and small caverns and more than 130 roads, guide tunnels, branch tunnels, tunnels, etc. After the construction was stopped, some of the openings were sealed. So no one knows these exact numbers.

"The solution you're talking about is this military cave?" When Wu Chen went, it had become an attraction, and all important facilities and old equipment had been dismantled. The timeline of the Fire Dragon Empire opens later than the attraction. In other words, there's nothing in it.

"When the dragon appeared, the army resisted to the death. However......" The woman sighed: "Later, we found out from a military briefcase brought back by the fire dragon that a large number of military supplies had been secretly transported into the cave at the beginning of the war with the fire dragon. Including nuclear weapons. ”

Wu Chen could already imagine what the so-called 'a military briefcase brought back by the fire dragon' was. So a severed arm tightly linked by handcuffs and briefcases, falling from between the sharp teeth of the fire dragon, and being quietly picked up by a group of refugees at night, immediately came to mind.

Fortunately. They don't eat minced meat with nails.

Wu Chen's distraction for a moment was not noticed by the woman.

"After the defeat of the war, many of the refugees who had retreated with the army to the caves formed a temporary command. He has been fighting against the fire dragon for many years. Until ......"

Just as she was getting to the point, the woman choked up and couldn't continue.

So her man finished the conversation for her: "Until a serious nuclear leak." I heard that when a nuclear warhead was converted into nuclear fuel, there was a serious leak. ”

Converting a nuclear bomb into nuclear fuel is definitely a black technology. As with all black technology, the probability of failure is extremely high.

The stakes are enormous.

Needless to say, the people inside ......

"Many escaped, but many more died inside." As he spoke, the man pulled out a woman's makeup case. "Some of those who escaped were later eaten by the dragon. The items they were carrying were 'picked up' by us again. ”

"......" Wu Chen began to associate again. He didn't want to listen to these cruel memories anymore: "Talk about the point. ”

"The point is, these things are all nuclear-contaminated. At first, we didn't care, but then many people died from radiation exposure, and we realized how serious it was. After emergency treatment, we were able to defuse the crisis. The radiated corpse and contaminants were all sealed in an abandoned bomb shelter. It is also designated as an exclusive cemetery. When someone dies in the future, we throw their bodies in. As you know, there is a limited amount of space in a bomb shelter. This also seems to support their belief that they do not eat the whole human race.

However, why not cremation?

"And then?" Wu Chen did not ask about these details.

"You know, we can't tell what's radiating and what's not. So the people who go up to the dragon's nest to scavenge. In addition to taking adequate precautions, we can only secure our destiny. Death continued until the dragon left. And then there were the lizardmen. ”

"You ate him."

"Yes, it's like scavenging. Let's elect a representative to see if the lizardmen can eat it. And the representative ...... "The leader of the remnants couldn't help choking.

Obviously, the person who tested the poison was his wife.

Because of their experience in fighting nuclear radiation, after eating lizard human flesh, the group observed it for a long time. Until it was discovered that the woman began to mutate. Wu Chen guessed so.

But what about the facts?

"Mutation is irreversible. Even if I pluck out the scales all over her body, they will still grow quickly. And each time it is harder, each time it is more than the other. In the end, the whole body was covered with scales, and the wife couldn't bear it, so she chose to commit suicide. By the time I found out, she had jumped off the Fallout Crypt alone. ”

Wu Chen's heart moved: "I didn't expect the radiation dust inside to alleviate the alienation of my wife." ”

"Exactly!"

No wonder she looks so much better than the lizard owner. It turns out that nuclear radiation can prevent or reverse genetic alienation!

"So what are your requirements?" After listening to this, Wu Chen wanted to find out anyway!

"Take her." The man stared at the robot dog behind Wu Chen and the charcoal black armor on his body. Word by word: "Only you can walk in alive and come out alive." ”

Wu Chen must say. This guy still has some eyesight. Of course, the colonization suit is protected against radiation. And for Cybertron's life, it's no problem!

"I can't guarantee that your wife will come out alive." Wu Chen told the truth.

"I know." The man nodded heavily: "No matter what, we thank you." ”

Wu Chen heard 'we', so he suddenly woke up: "So, the infected people ......"

"A lot, because alienation is slow at the beginning, lurking in the body. It was only after half a year that it suddenly broke out. During this time, many people can't help but eat lizard-human flesh. ”

In this way, the reason why the leader of the remnants chose to let Wu Chen take his wife alone also makes sense.

This is also a test of poison.

If her wife is okay and brings back enough radiation from it, the others will naturally be saved. If it doesn't come out......

Then you don't have to come out.

The experiment failed. Prevent the spread of the epidemic. All other infected can only be killed.

It is about 150 kilometers from the hall to the nuclear cave. During this time, you have to cross great rivers, dense forests and mountains, and endless scorched earth.

The adventure on the Yuzhong Peninsula alone is full of dangers, and now to cross such a large distance, Wu Chen should have no problem protecting himself, but it cannot guarantee the safety of the woman.

So he told the truth: "It's a dangerous journey. ”

"I know." The woman stubbornly spoke: "But no matter what, I'm going to give it a try." ”

"Okay." Wu Chen decided to take on this task.

"My lord, we can't give you anything but our lives. survived by eating minced meat. If you can escort my wife back safely, our cheap life will be yours, and there will be no second thoughts! ”

Although the Scorched Earth people have their own set of survival rules that will be avenged, can a leader really represent a community of immigrants? Wu Chen was skeptical.

Unless......

Just as Wu Chen thought, the bus obscured his vision, and in the dark underground passage, countless pairs of beast pupils were rising.

Perhaps that's why the leader of the remnants appeared alone!

Except for him, the privileged leader, all the remnants of the guild hall are infected!

Wu Chen did not go directly to his destination, but returned to the museum and asked for a set of protective clothing for the woman. Not to prevent women from being infected, but to prevent women from infecting others.

Giving up his cockpit to a woman, Wu Chen put on the saddle and drove away with dog meat. (To be continued......)
