Chapter 14: Walking Alone

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is extremely large, and if anyone is like him and sleeps in the open without preparation, I am afraid that I don't know how many people will freeze to death. Fortunately, after some tossing, the time was close to early in the morning, and the temperature gradually rose, so that it would not roast people, and it was even more fortunate that there were no monsters nearby. I really don't know if God is blessing this stupid boy and letting him fall asleep safely.

But this sleep could not last forever, and it was not long before the sun rose and the temperature in the desert began to rise rapidly. Ma Kai felt as if he was lying on a hot pot, and couldn't help but sit up from his sleep and exclaimed, "It's burning, it's burning!" Boss, Bear and Fat Dong, the electric blanket is burning! ”

"Huh? What about people......" When he looked around, he realized that this was no longer the safe Observatory 1108, but in the vast, uninhabited desert, and a sense of tension quickly hit. It turns out that those reliable comrades-in-arms are no longer there, and it turns out that being a human being can be so lonely. In this boundless desert, how much he hopes that there is a person, a person of the same kind who can accompany him, no matter who it is, not to mention Zhao Gang and Dog Bear, even Fat Dong, who often bullies him!

It's a pity that there is nothing here, and the only one you can rely on is yourself. "Damn it, how did I fall asleep here. The recruit's manual says that places without filters and nuclear removal devices are extremely susceptible to nuclear contamination, and I don't know if anything is ...... if I sleep on the ground like this," Ma Kai straightened up and got back up, no matter what, he told himself that he had to be strong, and all the hatred of Observatory 1108 was on his shoulders.

At this time, the sun was on the head, and Ma Kai fully felt the power of the poisonous sun, only to feel dizzy, dry mouth, and a hot pain in his throat!

"It's over, I must have been in this damn environment for too long, contaminated by nuclear radiation, I don't know if I'm going to die......" Ma Kai thought dejectedly, "No, you can't be so negative. Even if I want to die, I have to wait until I kill all those monsters and avenge the boss before I die, God won't let me live, I will live stronger! ”

In fact, he just didn't drink water for too long, which caused his throat to become inflamed, and he was too tired and his body was overdrawn, and if he was really contaminated by nuclear radiation, he wouldn't have reacted so quickly. However, after the tragedy of the collapse of Observatory 1108, this young man's heart has grown greatly, although he is still extremely jerky in terms of life and combat experience, but his will to survive and his motivation to fight are unusually strong.

At that moment, he took out the mechanical locator and walked in the direction of the division step by step, he didn't know how far the division was and whether he could get there alive, but he knew that as long as he was alive for a moment, he couldn't let go of those comrades who died because of him, and he couldn't forgive his sins. If the car breaks down, it doesn't matter, as long as there are legs, he will continue to walk; It doesn't matter if his leg is broken, as long as he can still move, he will crawl back. Go back to where he should be, to be court-martialed, to face his sins, and to avenge his comrades at Observatory 1108.

A lone figure leaves an equally lonely long trail of footprints in the desert, perhaps there are more difficulties waiting for him ahead, maybe nothing, this lonely journey is his final destination.

The pain in his throat became more and more intense, as if he was swallowing flames with every breath, and this burning pain sharply consumed Ma Kai's already small physical strength, "Water! Water! Water! With only one thought in his head, Ma Kai was going crazy with thirst.

"How come it is that you haven't arrived at the front-line division headquarters for so long? In the past, every time the boss went to the division headquarters to report on his work, he could run back and forth in just one day by driving, why did I come for so long this time? Am I getting it in the wrong direction? Ma Kai, who was dizzy from the sun, kept thinking in his heart.

The extreme lack of water simply made Ma Kai feel like he was in hell, and he was so tired that he couldn't even straighten his back, and walked in a trance, until his eyes were dazzled, and he couldn't even see the mechanical locator clearly.

"What's going on? Why is the dial blurry? Why is the pointer starting to spin around? Ma Kai, who couldn't stand steadily, picked up his mechanical locator and looked at it carefully, and the distance was so close that it was almost close to his eyes. It's a pity that it is useless to stick closer, vaguely not the dial of the mechanical locator but his eyes. The scorching sun shone directly on his head, and the pain was as if his head was about to explode, and the whole person was unconscious.

"Oops!" Ma Kai exclaimed. He was holding the mechanical locator and constantly looking at it, and walked forward in a daze, without looking at the road at all, and suddenly fell into a sand pit. This fall woke Ma Kai up, and he hurriedly climbed out of the sand pit with his hands and feet. Unexpectedly, this turned out to be a quicksand pit, and no matter how hard Ma Kaido tried, the constantly flowing sand brought him back. And because of his constant agitation, the speed of the quicksand is getting faster and faster, and even turning a small sand pit into a large quicksand whirlpool!

"Stop, calm down!" Ma Kai, who had come to his senses, admonished himself. He remembered that he had heard Zhao Gang talk about the method of encountering quicksand before, so he followed Zhao Gang's instructions in his memory, gently leaned back and lay his body flat on the ground, so as to increase the contact area with the sand and reduce the pressure. Then, while taking care to let the sand leak through the gaps in the limbs, climb out of the pit with a backstroke position. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, it was useless, and the whole person slipped towards the bottom center of the quicksand whirlpool.

"What's going on? Could it be that the method taught by the boss is wrong? In horror, Ma Kai looked into the center of the terrifying quicksand vortex, only to see a hole like a black hole appear in the center of the bottom of the quicksand vortex. But the hole was like a bottomless pit, and countless quicksand was sucked into it, but there was no sign of it being filled.

The further you fall, the faster the quicksand becomes, and you are about to fall into the center of the whirlpool. Ma Kai was shocked to find that the hole in the whirlpool of the early quicksand was not hollow, but a living creature hidden in it. This discovery frightened Ma Kai a lot, and there was a monster faintly in the cave, completely black, and it was not easy to find it even if it was hidden in the dark; But the monster's head had several pairs of eyes, and the red eyes glowed like ghostly fire in the darkness, and if it wasn't so close, it really wouldn't have been able to find it. The red eyes are clearly the most striking feature of the alien monster, as if they were red lights to warn humans of danger approaching.

"Bastard, I also said that this quicksand is so weird, it turns out that you are making a blame in it, what the hell are you monsters trying to drive us humans to in ******!" Ma Kai found the abnormality and couldn't help but curse in his heart. He had just experienced the tragedy of the destruction of Observatory 1108, and he hated these monsters so much that he wanted to kill them one by one. It's a pity that he doesn't have this strength yet, and Ma Kai himself knows quite well that if he wants to avenge his comrades at Observatory 1108, the first priority is to survive, and only by surviving can he hope to avenge Zhao Gang's boss and them. No matter how embarrassing or miserable, you must live.
