Chapter 129: The Coming Crisis
A lifeless but vast expanse of ruins, beneath the tranquil exterior lies endless murderous opportunities.
Lu Fei and Alex found a clean and suitable place to hide in a dilapidated building, took out cans and water, replenished their energy, and rested on the spot, the sky was gradually dark, the sound of guns and cannons could no longer be heard in the city, and the night sky was starry and unusually quiet.
Suddenly, a bright light swept across the sky, and Lu Fei once again heard the familiar sound of Weng Weng heard in the desert, and a huge aerial terminator swept through the sky above them like a ghost.
The place where Lu Fei and Ariel were hiding was a sloped and crooked building, which was extremely damaged, but it had not completely collapsed, but had formed an irregular quadrilateral, and the entire city of Los Angeles was now half in ruins, and the remaining half was basically all buildings of this type.
Although it is a dangerous building, as long as it is not attacked by artillery fire and storms, it is no problem to maintain the status quo for a year and a half, anyway, Lu Fei and Areil only plan to rest here for one night.
Lu Fei and Ariel were just right to notice the phenomenon in the sky through the skylight, and through the broken glass window, they could just observe the movement outside, the air terminator passed over the sloping building, and there were constantly strong searchlights hitting the building, and the strong light swept around them, but the air terminator did not notice them in the end.
Somehow, Lu Fei felt a faint uneasiness in his heart after seeing the air terminator who had just passed by from the skylight, since the second-level evolution gene was turned on, Lu Fei's perception ability has been comprehensively improved, it can be said that it is an almost perverted prediction, especially the judgment of danger is quite accurate, of course Lu Fei knows what the uneasiness in his heart after seeing the air terminator just now portends.
Lu Fei stared at the skylight tightly, the huge air terminator had gradually faded away from his sight, but the uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"Skynet often sends air terminators out to patrol at night, which is normal, and it will do so if humans have the main offensive advantage." Areelle's hands were resting on the back of her head against a wall at a certain distance from the window, she kept this position when the searchlight of the Air Terminator came in just now, for fear that she would be discovered by the Air Terminator if she made a move, if the Air Terminator found out and fired a cannonball at the seriously crooked building, then she could only say goodbye to Lu Fei.
"I decided to go out and have a look." Lu Fei suddenly made a very surprising decision.
"What? You're going out at night? Areil was shocked.
"Yes." Lu Fei said.
"You know, it's dangerous to go out at night." Eleil immediately made an analysis to Lu Fei, "You are likely to encounter survivors in the city under unclear circumstances, and you may also encounter rebels, but it is more likely to encounter machines, and the improved machines are very good at lurking, they may suddenly appear behind you while you are not paying attention, and the timid can be scared to death, you must know that human eyesight is not as good as machines at night, it is precisely because of this, whether it is the rebels or survivors, even at night they are highly vigilant, There are even all sorts of bizarre traps around the resting place to protect yourself, so whatever you encounter, it's likely to be enemies, especially machines, which are more dangerous, and the rebels have a ban on moving at night. ”
"I know." After listening to Ele's analysis, Lu Fei only faintly spit out three words.
"Then you're still going?" Arele asked.
"Yes." Lu Fei was short-sighted.
"Don't forget to bring your weapons." Areil handed Lu Fei the pistol pinned to her waist, "I hope you won't go too far and you won't get lost." ”
"Be safe yourself." Lu Fei instructed, put away the pistol, he didn't take the submachine gun away, he just planned to go out to have a look, not to go to war, the submachine gun would be more suitable for Ariel, who is good at long-range attacks, Ariel did not go out with him, but it was also in his expectation, and he didn't want Ariel to go out with him at night, after all, the uneasiness in his heart was just a feeling, the danger was not yet determined, it felt that sometimes it was easy to make mistakes, often playing with people, as for Ariel's safety, Lu Fei didn't have to worry, This female warrior has grown up all the way from the end of the world, she knows better than anyone about the various means of survival in the end times, the place where they hide is chosen by Ariel, from that location you can observe the sky, outside the building and inside the building, as long as there is a situation, Ezel can find it at the first time, and this crooked and deformed building has at least 8 exits, for Ariel to choose at the most critical moment.
Lu Fei didn't plan to go far, as long as there were no accidents, if this post-apocalyptic city full of various unknown variables in the dark night would bring fear to Lu Fei, it would be nonsense, after the experience of trembling space, it was difficult for Lu Fei to be knocked down by any fear.
The dark night sky is full of stars, there is a crescent moon hanging in the sky, there is still some dim skylight, the city in the night can be faintly visible, Lu Fei chose a better place to the commanding height, so that he can observe the air terminator more comprehensively, Lu Fei chose the top roof of this building, which is convenient to save a lot of time, but when Lu Fei came to the rooftop, where is there still the shadow of the air terminator in the quiet night sky?
The clear and quiet night sky was empty except for the stars and moon.
Could it be that the Air Terminator has already left? The uneasiness that rose in my heart was just that I was too worried?
Impossible, Lu Fei immediately made another judgment, he just explained a few words to Elle and immediately came to the top floor of this crooked building, according to the patrol speed of the air terminator, it is impossible for him to fly away before he appeared on the rooftop, according to Lu Fei's inference, if the air terminator really left, he should at least be able to see the light and shadow left by the strong searchlight of the air terminator in the night sky, and there is nothing in the night sky, if there is nothing, it can only mean one thing, the air terminator did not leave, most likely around here.
Lu Fei's judgment was confirmed as soon as he came up from the bottom of his heart, in the ruins of a group of city buildings about a hundred zhang away from Lu Fei's current location, an air terminator made a maneuvering sound, and suddenly rose from the ruins of the buildings, the strong searchlight shot out laser-like rays, and the air terminator quickly rose into the air, speeding up and flying away from this area, and after a while, Lu Fei's eyes could only see a little bit of afterglow in the flashing of the air terminator searchlight, and finally even that little bit of afterglow disappeared, completely integrated with the night sky.
Although the Air Terminator left, Lu Fei's heart was not calm at all, but the sense of uneasiness became stronger and stronger, this Air Terminator suddenly arrived, and it obviously landed in the middle of the ruins of the buildings just now, the question is why did this Air Terminator come there? What did it do there? And what is left?
This is a question worth pondering for Lu Fei.
