Section 158 Jiaoyun
When Chen Duan arrived, he found that all the heavyweights in the village were there, and Bowen and Cheng Ying were also invited. Bowen and Cheng Ying still looked a little puzzled, and they didn't seem to have figured out the situation yet, but the others all looked solemn.
Seeing that Chen Du was coming, the patriarch looked around and said slowly: "I invite everyone to come this time because I have something to discuss." We have confirmed that the gum cloud layer has been very unstable recently. ”
There was a dead silence in the conference room, and everyone in the village was dead. The three of them looked at each other, they didn't understand what the so-called glue cloud layer meant.
Bowen coughed lightly: "It's the first time I've heard of the glue clouds below, I don't know what it is?" ”
It was Kit who came out to explain: "The three of you may not know that there is something very strange in the sky above our heads. We call this the gum cloud layer. It is formless and massless like air, but more viscous, floating high in the sky like a cloud. The gum clouds are boundless, and no one knows how big they are. ”
It was the first time for the three of them to hear such a statement, and they all showed a slight shock. There was a look of disbelief on Bowen's face. If there was such a thing, how could he never have heard of it?
"The gum cloud is as transparent as air and so high above the ground that it is impossible to detect it with the naked eye. Generally speaking, the gum clouds are very stable and do not have any effect on our daily life. His tone suddenly increased: "However, if the glue cloud layer is unstable, it will be a disaster for all the creatures on the ground!" ”
Kit's face was still calm, but there was still a hint of worry in his eyes. The three of them held their breath and listened carefully to Kit's story.
"Whenever it's unstable, it drops a lot of clouds of glue. At first, it was only a small clump, but over time, the falling gum cloud became very large, sometimes hundreds of kilometers in diameter. Although they are formless and insubstantial, they are like transparent glue, and after a little longer, all the creatures under the glue cloud will suffocate to death. Including us. ”
The faces of the three of Chen Duan changed suddenly. It's horrible! With a range of hundreds of kilometers, you can't run out.
"Not only that, Jiaoyun also has a special surname, which is to absorb energy! Especially in a pure energy form like an energy shield, it will be quickly absorbed by the glue cloud. ”
The faces of the three of them changed again and again. What is Cassiu's biggest fear? It is the absorption of one's own energy. The core content of all cards is the use of energy, and if Jiaoyun can really absorb energy, then it is undoubtedly the nemesis of all Kaxius. But if it's a class Kaxiu, which one is not a pure energy attack?
"The period of instability of the gum cloud layer generally occurs only once in one or two hundred years. Unfortunately, we seem to be catching up. Kitt's smile was tinged with bitterness.
Seeing the puzzled expressions of the three of them, Kit sighed lightly: "The energy shields in several places in the village have been corroded by the falling glue clouds and have many small holes. The clouds of glue that fell this time were all small, and the largest one was only the size of a fist. With that, Kit handed over a glass bottle, and nothing could be seen in the transparent glass bottle.
"There's a glue cloud in there. Rest assured, it is harmless to the human body itself. ”
The three of them hurriedly took it over and observed curiously. When the glass bottle came to Chen Dui's hand, he felt quite heavy as soon as he started it, and the density of this glue cloud was very large. After thinking about it, he suddenly opened the bottle and threw in a one-star energy card.
An amazing scene has appeared!
The patterns on the surface of the one-star energy card disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in less than a minute, only a blank card was left for the complete one-star energy card, and all the patterns on it completely disappeared. The texture on the surface of the card is very stable and strong, and it is difficult to break it whether it is scraped with a knife or washed. But in this transparent and invisible glue cloud, the three of them suddenly gasped, and the faces of the people in the conference room, who were originally not good, became even worse at this time.
It was the first time Chen Du had seen such a thing, and while he was frightened, he couldn't help but think that this kind of glue cloud could be used to modify the card. I don't know what Jiaoyun is, and it has such a magical surname. He really wanted to take this bottle of glue cloud back and study it now.
Fortunately, he understood that this was not the time to study, so he pretended to listen very carefully. In fact, psychologically, he didn't feel that he had any actual point in coming here. He's always felt like a rookie, no matter what. He didn't see himself as a savior, and he never thought his ideas were better than anyone else's. But he is not ignorant of the world, since the patriarch called him, it shows that people attach importance to you. Whether you think you have that ability or not, the other party's face still has to be given.
"This time, we invite everyone to come and think of a way together. Especially the three guests, you come from the outside, and your thinking is much more open-minded than us old men. According to previous records, the fall of small gum clouds was a precursor to the occurrence of large gum clouds. But his tone changed suddenly: "However, if the record is correct, there should be about three to four months left for us." He added: "I don't know if this data is reliable or not." ”
Bowen's face suddenly turned ugly, doesn't this mean that he didn't say it?
"There is only one record of a rubber cloud disaster, so we can't make a more accurate estimate." The patriarch was very helpless.
"Could this account be wrong?" Bowen couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Bowen's words, the faces of the old men in the conference room, who were already not good-looking, became even more ugly. As soon as Bowen spoke, he knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he closed his mouth in amusement.
There was silence in the conference room.
Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, the patriarch spoke: "I have calculated with a few elders, and the best way at the moment is to move the village!" But there are 100,000 people in our village, and it doesn't mean that we can move around. Also, if you really want to move, where should you move? This jungle is full of dangers, and the soldiers in the village dare not go far, and we still have about half of the women and children. ”
Everyone was silent. The migration of 100,000 people is still in this reckless jungle, how easy it is to say!
"Since there is no objection, then I will give the order!"
"Yes!" All the elders leaned forward in unison.
At this time, the patriarch showed the decision that a clan leader should have: "Bafu, you organize your warriors and form them in wartime. As we move northwest, you send a small group of warriors to the front to find the way, leaving markers along the way. Evacuate immediately in case of danger. ”
"Yes!" Bafu replied loudly like a bell.
"Conrad, the material side is all up to you."
"Yes." Conrad opened his mouth, and the temperature in the conference room immediately dropped several degrees.
"Kit, you take the women and the elderly, take the family as a unit, ten families as a group, ten groups as a team, and every ten teams as a team, and strive to make it up in the shortest possible time. Children under the age of 16 are made into a separate section. You'll also have to mobilize the women and children to help Conrad gather supplies. ”
"Yes." Kit's gaze was like water, clear and calm.
As the patriarch's orders were issued, the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became tense.
The patriarch suddenly turned his head to Chen Du and said, "Mr. Chen, I need your help!" ”
Chen Du suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he was only a teenager, and he felt uncomfortable being called "you" by an old man in his sixties and seventies.
"As long as I can help, you can do it." Chen Dui's statement made the eyes of these old men in the village look at him much softer.
After pondering for a while, the patriarch spoke: "It would be good to have half of those who survived this migration. As soon as these words came out, the faces of the other people present couldn't help but show sadness. The patriarch was not exaggerating. The jungle is full of dangers, powerful beasts are everywhere, and they have to travel long distances. And no one knows how far this disaster will cover, and they will be going far, far away. The farther you go, the safer it is, but the farther you go, the more serious the attrition will be.
"We need weapons! Alfonso was the only one in the village who could make weapons, and he didn't have much in stock. I hope that Mr. Chen will stop his research and help us make weapons, and one more weapon may allow one more person to survive. The patriarch pleaded.
"Okay." Chen Du agreed without hesitation.
The meeting was quickly disbanded, and from now on, every bit of time was precious.
Chen Du thought all the way back to the laboratory. When asked Alfonso, he learned that the villagers in the village generally used standard energy knives, and this kind of weapon Chen Du had seen. And the light spear like the one Colin once used is not a big road goods. Weapons like this, Alfonso did not make much, and it was impossible to mass-produce.
Although the patriarch said that one more piece could be one, Chen Du knew that one or two weapons would have little effect on the entire migration.
Be sure to find a way that works! Chen Du secretly made up his mind that even if it was for himself, he would do his best!
