Chapter XXXIII The Storm I

Su lay on his back on a large branch, his body gently rising and falling with the wind. In front of him was a vast lake with endless forests behind him. Originally, there were several industrial towns in the vicinity of the old days, but they have been abandoned for a long time and have become forest sites. In turbulent times, it was not only various mutated animals that evolved wildly, but also plants. The trees are also aggressive enough, and the forest is spreading at an unprecedented rate. The dangerous mutated creatures and carnivorous plants that depend on the forest for survival have become accomplices in the expansion of the forest. However, the most important thing is that the greatest natural predator of the forest in the old era, humans, has now been greatly reduced in number, and the space and land required have also shrunk, thus leaving room for the forest.

The large lake is endless, and the surface of the lake is covered with layers of scales, and the surface of the water is gray, which reflects the color of the sky. The radiation is still strong enough to kill the strongest humans and low-tier abilities, and injure mid-tier ones. Sue felt a slight tingling sensation on her skin, the sensation of radiation shock. However, the radiation that used to be enough to injure him now only provides him with the energy to replenish, although this energy can be said to be insignificant to the current Su. His chest and abdomen were still hollow, and an eternal flame was now burning inside, a delicate balance with the tissues and organs of his body. If a body consumes a lot of energy, the flames will replenish it in bursts. The small energy stored in the diaphragm concentrates crystallization and releases the energy in an explosive way to replenish the flame, thus eliminating the need for a long digestion process.

As long as the fire in the abdominal cavity is spewed out, it is a deadly weapon in melee combat. These flames, which are over 3,000 degrees Celsius, are hotter than molten steel and can easily melt through even the strongest armor.

Su Wei squinted his eyes and stared at the northern sky. In that direction, it was dark. Thick clouds and cold weather make people feel oppressive and hopeless, and the vast water surface is more like the mouth of some giant beast, ready to devour its victims. Now, more than a hundred centers of thought, except for a few who are taking necessary breaks, are working, parsing the perceived qiē at the highest speed. All the numbers are normal, and this planet is also normal, but Su knows that danger is real. The one qiē that we are analyzing now is only trying to verify where the danger actually lies.

After sending Persephone back to the Arthur family, Sue began to wander alone, as if she had returned to the days of the lone wolf in the wilderness. For several years, he survived on a broken modified sniper rifle, wandering around like a real wilderness outcast, taking on many life-threatening missions for a little food. The sniper rifles, which he carefully maintained and spent a lot of money on modifications, now seem to be ridiculously powerful. However, if he could choose, Su would prefer to go back to the era when he relied on eyes, patience and bullets to solve the enemy.

There was a thin rustle in the woods behind him, and several foragers jumped out of the woods, floated into the air, came to Sue's side, lowered their heads and spat out a few energy crystals, and then turned back and jumped into the forest to continue looking for food. After a few foragers left, Su's palm already had a small handful of energy crystals like sparkling gems. The halo in the crystals was uncertain, representing an extremely abundant amount of energy, and the energy field emitted made Su feel very happy. Its appeal goes far beyond traditional cuisine. After looking at it for a while, Su habitually put the energy crystals in his mouth and swallowed them in one gulp. In fact, it is easier to create a 'mouth' directly in the palm of your hand and then swallow the energy crystals. But Sue still likes to 'eat' with her mouth.

At this time, the symbol containing the knowledge of biochemical weapons had been extracted from the depths of the right eye and mapped inside the only third-level thinking center. In his consciousness, a holographic map of a new biochemical weapon is slowly rotating. It resembles a manta ray, with wide wings that drive and store energy, sensory organs spread throughout the body, and a long tail that generates a variety of powerful force or energy fields. The smooth epidermis is covered with energy cells, which creates a vacuum layer that not only reduces drag in the air or underwater, but also builds a protective layer against various energy shocks. And along with the holographic data map, its information also flowed through Su's heart.

Lake, a mid-level bio-chemical weapon, firepower exporter, is characterized by its wide adaptability to the environment, and can withstand extreme temperatures from minus 150 degrees Celsius to minus 1,000 degrees. After a replenishment of energy, it can last for three months of survival or a week of combat needs. Like other mid-tier biochemical weapons, Lake also relies on energy crystals provided by foragers to survive, and the body does not have the ability to eat and digest.

At this time, among the thousands of biochemical weapons preserved in the symbol, Su selected a new alternative biochemical variety. After adapting to the world, it became shaped like an elephant, moving on its short, thick eight legs, and its swollen belly was somewhat disproportionately large.

Anhem, a mid-level bioweapon, a mother beast, and a modulator. It has decent adaptability to the environment, can survive well in most areas of the planet, has weak attack ability, weak perception ability, and poor defense. The main ability is that it can be used as a mother to give birth to other biochemical weapons, and can only breed intermediate and below biochemical weapons, which can produce multiple at a time, and the breeding cycle is shortened to one-third of the normal cycle......

Before he could digest all of Anham's information, Su's pupils suddenly shrank slightly, and at the end of his sight, a team of mechanical insects was flying silently. They weren't fast, they weren't numerous, there were only a few dozen, and there wasn't a single sort of large war machine in the queue. Su's perception ability is actually far greater than that of mechanical insects, and he can clearly 'see' their shapes from dozens of kilometers away. Most of the mechanical bugs are dove-sized scoutbugs, and their bodies are covered with various detection instruments. Every dozen kilometers it flies, a scout bug will fly high in the group, rushing up to a thousand meters in the air, and only stopping when it clings to the radiation cloud. The rest of the swarm continued to fly south.

Su was still lying still, but her perception had firmly locked on the never-before-seen group of mechanical insects. The mechanical swarm of scout bugs was fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had flown out of the lake and over the forest. However, none of the many detection instruments on their bodies were able to detect Sue. No matter what kind of detection is used, active or passive, there is no difference between Su Du and the ancient tree lying down. A detection wave like a radar wave shone on Su's body, and the reflected signal completely proved that Su was wooden. The image detection captured a tree branch, but it was thicker. This branch was a little different from the others, but the error was within the allowable range of the robot's calculations, so they didn't notice anything abnormal.

As it skimmed over the forest, the mechanical insect swarm detected a number of large life reactions, and more than a dozen high-energy beams fell one after another, killing some large beasts. Although these mutated beasts are predators in the jungle, they are still vulnerable to the civilization of the mechanical insect swarm.

Deep in the forest, a mutant ocelot is running wildly, already smelling death and thus bringing out almost its full potential. However, a point of light suddenly lit up in the air, and a high-energy beam of light instantly fell, piercing the back of its neck! The ocelot fell to the ground and somersaulted a few times before stopping. Its body twitched helplessly, but its head stretched forward as best it could, in the instinct of survival. In its gradually distracting pupils, an image of a creature that looked like a wolf but not a wolf suddenly appeared. It was a Holquila, who came quietly, sniffed at the ocelot, apparently uninterested, and walked peacefully into the forest. The ocelot was as intelligent as a human five or six years old, and it really couldn't understand why the steel devils flying in the sky could accurately lock themselves on, but turn a blind eye to this obviously even greater black wolf.

Holquila walked steadily, even a little lazy. Of course, it was impossible for the ocelot to see a thin layer of energy floating on Holquila's fur. In the mechanical swarm's scouting system, a Holquila reflects a life signal as strong as a mouse. Of course, they can't afford to spend a high-energy beam to bombard mice, even if they don't worry about energy loss, which is also a very stupid thing. At least, in Fizdeck's eyes, all the mechanical bugs were the equivalent of one of his nerve endings.

In the depths of the forest, it's not just Holquila that roams, but also foragers, Reguna, and several other biochemical weapons. The signals they reflect are similar, so in the information system of the mechanical insect swarm, because the number of rats in this vast forest is really large, the mark has also been changed to the forest of giant rats.

Sue suddenly moved. He leapt from the branch of the tree where he roost, rose into the air, and with a snatch of his hand, he grabbed one of each of the mechanical insects, and then slowly fell. The sudden attack caused chaos among the mechanical insect swarms, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find the attacker, let alone know where their missing companions had gone. After a few futile minutes of searching, the original order priority returned to the top, and the mechanical swarm continued in the intended direction, marking the missing companion as destroyed. It's a trivial matter, and the individual mechanical bugs are very vulnerable, they are not fast, their attacks are not strong enough, and their defenses are not outstanding. Therefore, not to mention the powerful abilities of human beings, even some powerful mutated creatures can also bring great losses to them. However, when the mechanical swarm is large enough, the power will be truly unleashed.

As the scout insect swarm faded away, Su squatted in the glade and began to disassemble the mechanical insects. The long, sharp nails popped out of his ten-finger fingertips, which became a sensitive tool to dissect and disintegrate the mechanical insects. The center of thought was already running at full speed, and began to reverse analyze the structure of the robotic worm. N
