Chapter 401: Prepare for a showdown
It shouldn't be said as if it were "as if", because the earthquake really came.
In the blink of an eye, the ground under the feet of the turtledove and the small insect had quickly turned into a violent trembling from the initial slight trembling, and the trembling earth raised the sand and dust to the height, although it had not yet reached the level of covering the sky and the sun, but it had choked the turtledove speechlessly.
Holding the worm's arm with his left hand and his raised right hand to shield him from the wind and sand, the turtledove ran in the direction of the modified pickup truck with his memory, and suddenly the worm behind him fell to the ground with a limp.
The bug had a wound on her leg, and even after treatment, she couldn't keep up with the turtledove as if she was fine, and the bug was still in a state of confusion before, and she didn't even understand how she got back to the ground.
It wasn't until she was dragged out by the turtle dove that the little worm was sobered up by the pain in her leg, and she wanted to run with the turtle dove, but before she could run two steps, the little worm was so painful that she couldn't move.
After all, the injuries suffered by the little worm are indeed not light, and it is difficult for her to hold on until now.
The turtledove then remembered that the worm was injured, and he wanted to ask the worm a sentence "It's okay", but the mouth just opened, and the turtledove was poured a mouthful of sand, and now he no longer asked about the worm's condition, and directly picked up the worm from the ground, and ran away with the modified pickup.
The tremors of the ground were getting more and more alarming, and Ikaruga didn't expect the underground research institute's self-destruct program to trigger such a serious surface reaction, it seemed that Sonny was right, he and the worm had to get out of the area as soon as possible.
The only thing that is thankful is that the controller has probably sunk deeper underground along with the fully enclosed research institute, and it is believed that it will never be able to leave there and return to the surface to cause trouble.
……
Parking for the past few days, a layer of dust has slowly fallen on the modification split, and there are still a few pieces of bird feces on the windshield, Turtledove didn't care so much, he first opened the car door, put the bug in the passenger seat, and then didn't ask if it was dirty or not, he quickly slid to the other side of the pickup truck by the hood, and rushed into the cab with lightning speed.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The roar of the engine sounded instantly, and the turtledove stepped on the accelerator desperately, wishing that he could not drive a modified pickup truck, but a helicopter that could take off and land vertically, so that he could escape from the center of the disaster faster.
"Ka!"
Through the rearview mirror, Turtledove found that the situation behind him was even worse than in front, a hundred meters behind him, the ground there was completely shattered, and the crack like a dragon was twisting but rapidly spreading to his side.
"Fight!"
Turtledove knew that it was obviously too late to make a detour at this time, and now he could only choose to pin his head to the waistband of his trousers and bet his life on the modified pickup truck to see if it could break through the crack in the ground in front of him that had not yet been completely cracked.
Thanks to the right decision, the modified pickup carried him and the worm through the first hurdle of death.
As the tremors grew stronger, the surrounding terrain had changed dramatically, and the earth was divided into pieces, some rising high, others sinking, and the turtledove in the cab felt like he was riding a roller coaster, and more dangers awaited him.
The sky has been obscured by the flying yellow sand, the earth is gradually disintegrating, and the huge movement has even spread to a hundred miles away, and the nearby animals have fled here in advance when the underground research institute began to sink.
With the extraordinary reflexes in a furious state, and the modified pickup truck is indeed sturdy and durable, the turtledove and the little worm finally escaped.
……
In the evening of the same day.
Several hours have passed since the thrilling of the day, during which the turtledove and the little insect did not even dare to stop, and the turtledove has been driving the modified pickup truck to escape as far as possible, escaping from the middle of the sun to the sunset, and the two people who were in shock confirmed that they had escaped.
Stopping the modified pickup, the thirsty and hungry turtledove only drank two sips of water, and then fell asleep directly on the steering wheel, - he had never had a good rest in the past two days, and his nerves had been tense for so long that he was basically about to lose it.
It's also thanks to the fact that Turtledove's physical fitness is much better than that of ordinary people, otherwise he might not have been able to persist until now.
Worm was also very tired, but she insisted on going to the back of the pickup to change her bandage, then fell into the compartment, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
In the middle of the moon, the turtledove woke up.
Smashed his mouth twice, the turtledove seemed to have just had a dream related to food, this dream made him, he was hungry, and he woke up hungry, lying on the steering wheel, he rubbed his sore neck, and said that this position is really not very comfortable to sleep.
The turtledove opened its misty eyes and subconsciously looked at the passenger seat next to it, but did not see the worm.
This turtledove was startled, he quickly jumped out of the car to look for the worm, fortunately the turtledove soon saw the worm sleeping soundly in the back compartment, did not dare to make too much noise, the turtledove lightly took out a little food and water from the back compartment, found a small mound nearby to sit there to eat and drink.
Looking at the moon in the sky, the turtledove suddenly remembered that when he first met the little worm, this girl deceived him miserably, not only took the materials that the turtledove had stolen from the bone town, but also threw the turtledove alone in the desert, almost feeding the wolf.
It turns out that the worm didn't just lie to himself that time.
The wind was a little cool in the night, and the earth, which was scorched by the sun during the day, was now in the cold moonlight when it dropped to the polar temperatures, and time seemed to have gone back to the beginning, when the worm and the turtledove had their first quarrel over whether or not to bleed the sand lizard.
It seemed like that was the only time the two of them had an argument.
Turtledove regarded the worm as a person he could trust, and he also knew that the worm was indeed hiding something from him, and the turtledove had no way to confirm this before, so he could barely convince himself not to dwell on it.
It was only after confirming this that Kataruga felt that he could no longer deceive himself.
