After analyzing the various facilities and creations in the blue-blooded towns, combined with the strange plants in the northern part of the basin, [Machine Spirit] came to a conclusion: "The various species in the entire basin are undergoing a microcosm of the evolution of the world. ”

The miniature world, this statement is not difficult for Miao Pu and others to understand. Mountains, rivers, plains, and hills...... rivers, lakes, seas, streams...... Add plants and animals, and it's a miniature world.

The question is why this is done, on the other side of the sea and the sea, isn't there already a huge and species-rich ecology, and why is it like that?

Miao Pu also deliberately asked [Machine Spirit], and the answer he got was that the plants in the basin and the underground jungle on the other side were not the same system. If the underground jungle exists in order to adapt to the current earth's source environment, then here, it is to adapt to the deep source environment, and this deep source environment is likely to be the environment when the original source civilization existed.

Why do you want to engage in two sets, the answer is not available for the time being, but it makes Miao Pu and his party more and more determined that there is more than one enemy who masters high-end source technology.

After resting in the abandoned residence of the bluebloods, the group set out on a journey again.

In the general direction, the group is moving deep into the southeast corner of the underground space. According to the known map of the whole area drawn by the [Machine Spirit], it has now surpassed the north-south line where the entrance to the underground space at the end of the bead chain area is located.

The white sand is still visible in front of you, but at the end of the line of sight, you can already see the mountains that resemble the cliffs.

As the saying goes, looking at the mountain runs a dead horse. At the speed of Miao Pu and them, they still walked for more than half an hour before they reached the foot of the mountain.

At this time, the mountains here are very different from the cliffs, first of all, the mountains are not limestone, but basalt. Basalt is a mafic volcanic rock, this rock is dark, generally black, presented in front of the eyes of a group of people is the color of black gray, and is a typical stomatal structure, at first glance it looks like pumice, but in fact it is much stronger than pumice.

Secondly, there is no bright and flowing light and mist in the air here, but a gray-black haze like a sandstorm, which tumbles violently but does not fall.

As a result, the entire area was dark, as if it were dusk.

Such an environment has a very bad impression on everyone's senses, especially in the area where the light has been shining for a long time, and the white sand in the basin is reflective.

"The radiation here is high." With the reminder of [Machine Spirit], Miao Pu told everyone about the situation. Everyone put on elephant trunk masks.

This mask is a breathing device made by Miao Pu with the help of the newly obtained plant element factor with the help of [Machine Spirit], mainly for air purification function, in the absence of oxygen outside, it can maintain the general breathing of adults for about 10 minutes, if it is strenuous exercise, it can only be 5-7 minutes.

Luo Zhiqing said, "We should install this kind of device in the vine monster cabin, the situation in the depths of the mountain range may be even worse, maybe we can use it." ”

Miao Pu thought about it, it was indeed this reason, in case of a battle, the elephant trunk mask was destroyed, there was no replacement at all, at this time, if you can enter the cabin to dodge, there will be room for turn.

So everyone temporarily withdrew from this area, and when they re-entered a few hours later, not only the vine monster had been transformed, but each person had an extra rattan cloak.

Although the weave of these poncho-like dark green overalls is as rough as canvas, the energy supply of the guò plant monsters can insulate a large part of the radiation contamination.

The capsule of the vine monster was originally full of supplies, but now some of them have been picked up and carried by the [Mora]. In order to have an emergency, people can go into the cabin to avoid it.

It turns out that it is necessary to spend a few hours to prepare, and the deeper you go, the worse the situation becomes, and the radiation concentration has reached the point where ordinary protective clothing cannot isolate you, but fortunately, everyone is energy protection, but you don't have to worry about becoming a warrior in the Fukushima nuclear power plant leakage accident (super high salary hired to operate in a high-concentration radiation area, and finally died).

The radioactive dust floated in the air, like dirty impurities hanging in the water, and people walked in it, and their eyes were full of this dust.

The light is getting dimmer and dimmer, and looking back, there is a feeling of looking out of the cave in the depths of the cave, with a stark contrast between brightness and darkness.

After going deeper than ten kilometers, the road ahead was no longer able to see normally. In addition to the darkness, there is also a much denser radioactive fallout, which makes everyone feel like they are in a sandstorm.

Miao Pu used vines as ropes, connected everyone, and sent bent lamp heads for lighting, even so, the visibility was extremely low, and the people behind could barely see the people in front of them by the light of the bent lamp heads, and they were less than three meters apart from each other.

Perception is also strictly affected, which is to be expected. It's just that in this way, the group is a bit like a blind man.

Fortunately, Miao Pu still relies on hearing. At each point, he would go to a high place, and then use the 92 sword, which he had not used for a long time, to change two shots, and by guò to distinguish the sound of bullets cutting through the space, he determined that the area was roughly cone-shaped, and the deeper it went, the narrower it should be.

This speculation was confirmed after more than an hour of arduous trekking, and the bullet fired by Miao Pu was able to hit the stone wall.

In the end, it can already be called a passage, and the distance between the left and right is more than 100 meters, and the height of the top is about the same. At a distance of about a thousand meters, the terrain did not shrink further.

As he was walking, the air flow suddenly accelerated, Miao Pu reacted quickly, and as soon as he opened the energy shield, the rumbling sound was accompanied by the surging air flow with almost 10 wind speeds.

Even with Miao Pu in front of him, the people behind him were still unstable. Fortunately, everyone is extremely vigilant, and they have used the strange power of the plant monster to stomp on the ground and stabilize their bodies.

Not only the wind erupted from the depths of the tunnel, but also an unusually thick cloud of radioactive dust, and the energy shield was rapidly eroded by it.

One after another earth energy crystals were used, and Miao Pu, who was holding the shield, retreated quickly and steadily.

Fortunately, now the entire [Wolf Tooth Squad] is not bad, no one panicked, and retreated outside the passage in an orderly manner, and it only took less than a quarter of an hour. You must know that the situation at this time is definitely easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, and you need speed but you can't be too far away from Miao Pu, and the grasp of proportion here is definitely a test.

After exiting the passage, the terrain suddenly became much more open, and the power of the radiation dust storm was significantly reduced. The group dodged the route directly ahead of the storm and retreated to a dead angle almost formed by the storm and the passage entrance, and the energy shield was changed to an energy shield, protecting everyone, including the vine monsters.

In just such a while, Kang Danian's energy coat has been corroded and destroyed, without him, the energy supply cannot keep up with the corrosion rate of radiation dust, and even [Moluo] is not happy, the energy is consumed, and the surface layer is damaged. Some of the materiel was also lost. Fortunately, the most important thing is in the capsule of the vine monster, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

The radioactive dust storm lasted about an hour before it stopped.

By this time, everyone had recovered from their previous horrors, and the loss had been ascertained, and one week's ration had to be abandoned, which made the already scarce food reserves even more strained.

"Even with the addition of fruit, the normal food ration can only last for another six days, and if we can't get replenishment within those six days, we will go hungry." After the statistics, Kang Danian told Miao Pu about the situation.

At this time, there is actually no way out, and if there is no new acquisition, then there is no room for slow turn. There is no way to build a sea ship in six days, and after six days, although there is still fruit, but relying on the fruit alone, at most, it is hanging for life, and how can the people who are getting weaker and weaker fight again? At that time, whether it is going to sea or exploring deeply, it will only fall into a vicious circle.

Jiang Shangqing counted the damage to some utensils, and it is conceivable that the quality of life of the [Wolf Tooth Squad] people will decline a lot in the future. For example, a blanket full of radioactive dust must be unusable, which is more terrible than the plague blanket that the Spaniards gave to the Indians.

If you don't know how to rest, you don't know how to fight, and the decline in the quality of life will inevitably affect the state of everyone.

Fortunately, the others are okay, under Miao Pu's large amount of life energy expenditure, the corrosion damage has basically recovered. Among them, the vine monster and the heavy [Moluo] are the most worry-free, with a dense protective layer and sufficient earth energy, they can be said to be in the most intact state except for Miao Pu.

Speaking of which, this sudden distress is really thanks to the previous three times of earth energy collection. If it weren't for the abundant earth energy and the formation of a cone-shaped energy defense wall with the golden sand, it would not be a matter of how much proportion of materials would be lost, but how many people would survive.

As for the polluted discoloration of the golden sand, it is not a big problem, some of it is earth-based energy, and it would be good to re-refine it.

While waiting for the radiation dust storm to stop, Miao Pu and the others also completed their thinking and deliberation. In particular, Luo Zhiqing provided a clue, she said: "You said that the situation here is not like the spatial rift we saw on the periphery of the ruins?" ”

When Miao Pu heard this, his mind lit up. The negative energy particles that erupt from the spatial rift will be neutralized and fall into crystals when encountered. This is not the point, the focus is on the reason for the existence of space fissures and the ejection of negative energy particles - the excretion of waste.

According to this line of thought, this place in front of you is like the human urethra or ****? If this is the case, then it is likely that the group has found an entrance to a mysterious space that they have not found until now.

After the storm stopped, the group couldn't wait to re-enter the passage.

The radiation erosion in the area is still very strong, and the vine monster can't accommodate so many people, so Miao Pu simply continues to open the energy shield to protect everyone. Due to skill issues, Miao Pu was still unable to move forward while maintaining an all-round protective energy shield. Therefore, it was replaced with an energy shield, with an extra layer of protection, and most of the power of the radiation that penetrated in lost most of its power, and the rest could only be carried by everyone.

The team advanced to the end of the passage, and found only a one-way spatial door that had been closed.

This situation is naturally equivalent to pouring a bucket of cold water on everyone's heads, closed, and single-item, which does not allow people to continue to play happily?

However, Luo Zhiqing, who knows space technology the most, has some unique views. She explained: "Different from disposable space doors, this kind of space doors that have been used repeatedly and have requirements for stability have a door frame. If something goes wrong, how do you maintain it? ”

"The bluebloods built it?" Someone opens their mouth and comes.

"It's definitely not the Blue Bloods, the Blue Bloods have the earth-based abilities they have, and their skills are related to it. This one deals with spatial abilities and knowledge. ”

Miao Pu followed his train of thought and said: "No matter who built it, it is impossible for him to follow the route we took, cross the forest, cross the sea and the earth, go deep into the basin, build a gate, and then return the same way." ”

Qian Lihang added: "Although the second half of the period cannot rely on the sense of smell to locate it, the general direction taken by the blue-blooded people is correct. In other words, they must have entered this abandoned land. Combining the two phases, somewhere here, there must be a secret passage, or secret place, that we have not yet discovered! ”

Miao Pu nodded, "It's very likely, just like Luo Zhiqing said, how do they go?" And then across the forest, across the sea, across the basin? ”

Zhou Shuai interjected: "Can't you use the kind of space that is not very stable, as long as the coordinates and does not need the door frame, to teleport away?" ”

Luo Zhiqing shook her head and said: "The longer the teleportation distance, the greater the technical difficulty, and the environmental requirements for the destination are extremely high, not to mention this abandoned land, even if the destination is set in the desert basin, it is extremely dangerous." ”

Xue Ming said: "Since this portal is so important, why don't we just destroy it and wait for someone to repair it?" ”

Zhou Shuai shook his head, "It's not good, maybe the other party won't find out that the space door is broken until the next time it is wasted, I'm the next one, who knows when the next time it will be......"

Jiang Shangqing and the others all nodded in agreement, and they had to wait for the rabbit to see the time, they couldn't afford to wait here, especially the environment here was too bad, and every minute and second was consumed.

At this time, Miao Pu was communicating with Luo Zhiqing in a low voice.

Among the group, only Luo Zhiqing is the best at searching for hidden space, and Miao Pu naturally pinned his hopes on Luo Zhiqing.

The current situation is that the entire abandoned land is a bit large, and the radiation contamination of Yan zhòng also has a strict impact on spatial exploration, so it takes some luck to find the hidden space where there may be zài, and they seem to be lacking luck this time.

"Admittedly, I kept things simple. Forcibly entering this area, I feel that it won't take much time to find ......" Miao Pu shook his head as he spoke, changed the topic, and said, "That's it, the team will withdraw first, and I will accompany you to conduct a thorough search of this area." ”

Luo Zhiqing thought about it and agreed with Miao Pu's decision. This method is undoubtedly a bit stupid, but it is also relatively safe.

She doesn't approve of destroying the space door, according to the waste situation, the space door is an important facility in a certain space, and they are going there next, destroying the stability of a place that is about to enter, this is not a smart move.

Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing had a final decision, and the others basically did not object, and the group withdrew from the abandoned land in an orderly manner. In this process, perhaps with special care, they discovered a situation that they failed to discover when they entered:

At the edge of this abandoned land, there is some kind of artificial barrier that insulates the erosion of the Baisha Basin from harmful radiation from the abandoned land.

The setting of this barrier is similar to "setting up a valley to form a river, in order to restrain the long-flowing water, so that it does not flood the wilderness", with the invisible pattern of elephants.

As a quasi-conspiracy theorist, he has always believed that behind all kinds of strangeness, there is at least one bull breaker, even if it is just a program written by the power of a deceased source civilization, after all, with some kind of will.

After exiting the abandoned land, Miao Pu did not rush to explore again with Luo Zhiqing, but created a platform for sleeping in the desert.

He tried to shape the white sand into a slate like the Blue-Blooded Man, and in the end, he succeeded, and he didn't succeed, the slate was made, but the performance was not comparable to that of the Blue-Blooded Man's creation of the zào, and it was obviously crude, real sandstone, not as dense as marble like he controlled the golden sand.

Of course, in any case, being able to shape is a good start, proving that the machine spirit has successfully devoured the bone marrow of the blue-blooded man for the second time to strengthen his earth-based affinity, and it also proves that the new wand is indeed more powerful, and it is the improvement of the two that allows him to use the earth-based skill in such a short period of time, and on the surface it is not inferior to the earth-based ability awakener.

The slate is only the first step, and a simple nest is the ultimate goal of Miao Pu.

With an ugly but sturdy sandstone house, Miao Pu is good enough to arrange the plant ecology in the middle.

It must be said that only after this step is completed, it can be regarded as a place where there is someone to stay. It is true that the Baisha Basin is a treasure, but the soil energy in this area is too abundant, and it can be regarded as some kind of energy polar. Therefore, even without the scorching sun and freezing cold nights, its sinister nature cannot be ignored, and it is even more insidious and vicious, especially for ordinary people.

And taking advantage of the gap between Miao Pu and the campsite, Kang Danian also happened to complete their own cleaning work. It's easy to say, it's energy infiltration. How the harmful radiation was eroded in the first place, it is better to force it out now. With the energy that is more harmonious with life, the active equipment is restored, and the work is finished. Another thing to watch out for is the supply box.

At this time, even the soldiers of the 8733 Division who joined later felt that in the source world, it was okay to eat or drink without food, and it was okay to have no energy. Like [Wolf Tooth Squad] now, whether it is strong enough or not, or even whether it is good or not, energy is the best benchmark.

With plenty of earth-based energy to squander, they have no danger in the wasteland, where they can quickly set up camps suitable for camping. Similarly, because there is still a stock of life-based energy, the radiation contamination of Yan zhòng can also be said to be cleaned up, and [Moluo] is still alive and well. In the source world, it seems that all qiē is closely related to energy.

It was precisely because of the importance of energy that some fighters asked Miao Pu if there was any way for ordinary people like them to help collect energy.

As soon as Miao Pu heard this, he wanted to refuse. For a long time, he has been accustomed to the mode of "you are all good, when the strong man solves the main problem, you can beat a side drum or something" at that time.

Fortunately, since Guo Yang denounced his "** silk disease", he has realized that as a strong man and leader, he can no longer speak like an ordinary student, and he dare not say it after thinking twice, but it is definitely right to think more than his brain, so after thinking about it for a while, he felt that he should not discourage everyone's enthusiasm. If you do everything on the one hand, and complain like a woman who has brought a burden, it will be too cheap.
