Chapter 880: Dirty Child

Chapter 880: Dirty Child

(The computer hung up, and it was just fixed...... )

There's nothing spookier than walking in a scrapyard with a foul smell, dirty, garbage-strewn junk to discuss the apocalypse, and the atmosphere here makes you feel like you're walking in a stylized post-apocalyptic horror movie. Everyone thinks about this, especially Lilina, a loli who doesn't seem to have a normal aesthetic, claims that she feels a gothic scrap metal decadent aesthetic from the twisted wreckage around her, and begins to be fascinated by the end of the world that caused all this, in her words, the decadent garden that is twisted after the end is the ultimate miracle of violent aesthetics - for this reason my sister pressed this girl and slapped her ass for three minutes, and Lilina called her crying father.

I said something right before, Poison Island Tsuneko should be glad that she received physical enhancement when she was enrolled in the Imperial Affairs Academy, because the environment here is really not suitable for ordinary people to live, on this metal planet piled up by countless abandoned starships, the gravity is one and a half times that of the earth, and the female high school student with a weak physique will definitely not be able to go far, and the air environment here is even worse, we don't know what is supporting the oxygen content of the atmosphere on this ruined planet, It could be that the ecosystem inside the wreckage of the warship is leaking, or it may be that the local natives have repaired the atmospheric generator - I prefer to believe that it is the latter, otherwise the ecological environment here is simply too unreliable, because preliminary scans show that there is no complete biosphere in these ruins, the number of plants is negligible to be negligible, and it is wishful thinking to maintain the oxygen balance of the atmosphere by biological resources, and the indigenous people here are obviously similar to humans, and they need the same oxygen-rich atmosphere as the earth to survive. So for their sake, I'd rather they had mastered the art of repairing ancient atmospheric generators than build the atmosphere on the old eco-spheres in the wreckage of those ships.

By the way, where did I just talk about - oh, the physical strength of the Tsuneko and the air environment here.

The air environment here is terrible, although its oxygen content is enough for ordinary people to survive, but the air is full of impurities, toxic gases, radiation dust, metal dust, suspended particles formed by the energy transfer crystals on the warship after 700,000 years of weathering, and organic acid clouds that are even more lethal to the respiratory tract, these dangerous things and other components similar to the earth's atmosphere together make up the air environment around us, which is so bad that it is outrageous. If a healthy person comes to this place without protective equipment, it may not take long for him to experience everything from bronchitis to advanced lung cancer, and depending on the situation, he may fall on serious diseases such as acute respiratory heavy metal poisoning...... Dear, do you still feel that the air pollution in the city you live in is serious? Come here and take a deep breath, I swear you'll be thanking God for the fresh air and the blue sky at the Fukushima nuclear power plant......

After the physique is strengthened, Tsumiko will not be poisoned by these dirty air, and even she has learned how to control her strengthened organs in an extracurricular interest group, stop breathing and only rely on no oxidation reaction to maintain her activities, but this does not prevent her from showing great dissatisfaction with the harsh environment around her, wearing the short skirt + over-the-knee socks uniform of the high school of the Imperial Academy, she seems to feel that the polluted air around her is constantly invading her capillaries through her exposed skin, I feel sick all over. She waved her hand in front of her nose, even if she wasn't breathing, the pungent sensation caused to her after accidentally taking a few deep breaths just now made her can't help but do this: "Lord...... Brother, this place is even more disgusting than a city full of zombies. ”

"Indeed, it seems that the indigenous people here either have a different respiratory system from the earthlings, or they have evolved bronchial tubes made of steel and iron," I widened the energy shield around me, enveloping the depressed Miko with the sneezing Yakumo Blue on the other side, and then looked up at the dim light hanging high above, "The way this ruined planet is composed is simply unscientific, Tavel just sent back the message, Saying that she scanned the cores of the three large garbage heaps, including this ruined planet, all have a strong energy response, which means that the wreckage of their cores is likely to be still in operation, I really don't know what happened here back then, these spaceships will be piled together in such a strange way, looking like a mass grave......"

A large group of us walked on the empty "road", which was called a road, but in fact it was just a complete metal skeleton, which was dozens of meters wide and spanned between two garbage dumps full of scrap metal, barely a traffic route that could be called a road. The transport plane has been left behind by us, and it is not needed for the time being, anyway, and there is really no need to recover the vehicle that has been smashed by Bingtis's brain convulsion. Looking around, there is a gray metallic hue, large pieces of alloy shards forming a shattered earth, and there is almost no real level in sight, although the whole "planet" should be like this, but this is obviously the most broken place under our feet. The steel wreckage was haphazardly piled up in the distance, forming a hill hundreds of meters high, and the "planet" was originally the ruins of countless warships, and the steel wreckage was like a garbage heap on top of a garbage heap - it was a strange way to describe it, but I couldn't find a better word. Sharply torn by the savagery, the broken metal stretched out abruptly from the shattered earth, pointing straight at the chaotic sky, illuminated by the filthy light, like a bony arm stretched out to the sky, and some dirty strips of tattered cloth were blown up by the wind and hung on those sharp metal spikes that pointed high to the sky, hunting and flying in the high winds, looking like strange pirate flags.

There is a foul atmosphere over this ruined planet, the air quality is not for the time being, its thickness is more than the earth's atmosphere, because this "universe" has no stars, all the lighting here comes from artificial light sources, they are countless large fireballs hanging high outside the atmosphere, every few thousand kilometers there will be one such fireball hanging in the sky, emitting uncomfortable dazzling white light, these light sources are very bright, but the comfort is really unflattering.

Sandora observed her surroundings for a while, glanced up at the sky, frowned, and said, "It's a nuclear fusion reactor, a very primitive thing, and it seems that the only value here is to shine." ”

"I'm curious how they came to be," my sister also pointed to the nuclear factories in the sky that emitted a dazzling light and provided heat to the entire ruined planet, "Fusion reactors and ghost reactors are very different things, and the natives here know how to use Imperial ships, but they still have these fusion reactors, even if they are only for lighting, which is a strange phenomenon." ”

I thought about it and understood what my sister meant: "It's like lighting with a torch in the Chinese Academy of Sciences?" ”

Everyone said that I summed it up very well......

Despite the harsh environment and weird atmosphere, this still can't stop my baby shallow to come to the new environment after the enthusiasm for exploration, after following us honestly for a while, shallow and Lilina went to the small garbage mountain not far away to explore a risk, my sister and I can't scream, the two of them dug down a pile of scrap metal at least 100 meters high, and then the two of them happily ran back with a large bunch of messy gadgets in their hands, scrap metal needless to say, There are more and some precision parts, broken crystal hubs, and even a data terminal, Lilina handed over the data terminal as if offering a treasure, with a flattering smile on her face, I pinched the little girl's face, and pressed it a few times on the data terminal, the latter actually lit up for a moment, but after a few symbols, it smoked.

Compared to this gadget, it was a few pieces of metal that were pulled back by shallow picks up that caught Sandora's attention.

"The traces of manual cutting, and not the kind of brute force cutting in battle, the tangent at these two angles is intentional," Sandora put a piece of metal that Asa brought back in front of her eyes and looked back and forth, "That's right, secondary processing...... Someone recycles the metal remains in the ruins for reproduction, and this is a garbage dump after all the reproduced things are completely scrapped. ”

"Wow, we've really landed in a good place, and your location is in time for Lin."

Such an unscrupulous complaint, and it was issued to Shandora without any scruples, and you don't have to think about it to know who Lu Dao is: the rogue goddess Bingtis.

No one answered Bingtis's complaints, and we all knew that she was just bored. Under the guidance of Sandora, we gradually moved in the direction of human settlements, and in order to directly observe the environment, everyone chose to walk, although the "scenery" here is really not very good, but the twisted and strange scrap metal around it still makes the shallow feel new and interesting.

After ten minutes of walking, everyone came to the edge of this garbage dump, and I realized that it was located on a high ground, "flat land" came to an abrupt end at the foot, and in front of it was a slope of nearly 90 degrees, and at the end of the slope of about 100 meters, you could see a dozen scattered lights, those dim lights emitted from the cracks of the houses stacked with old and twisted metal plates, indicating that it was the so-called residential area.

"I didn't expect that Hope to come from such a dilapidated place when it crashed on Mars," a golden halo slowly flowed between the strands of Sandora's hair, and she bent down, pressed her hand to the ground, and began to scan all the intelligent creatures within a radius of thousands of kilometers, "We seem to be in a king-sized slum, and the obsession with food and clean water is almost breathless." ”

"How long are you going to hide?!"

Lin Xue, who had been silent all the way, suddenly turned her head to look at a pile of twisted pipes that were about thirty meters away from us, and shouted loudly to the people hiding behind the pipes.

In fact, we all felt that there was someone hiding nearby from the beginning, but the other party's energy reaction was really weak, and everyone didn't care, of course, there were still people in the crowd who were relatively slow to react, and the only one in our group who was not a combatant immediately looked in the direction of Lin Xue's gaze in surprise: "Where else is there someone?" ”

Surrounded by so many pairs of eyes, the person hiding behind the exhaust pipe finally couldn't hide, and with the sound of clothes rubbing on the ground, a small figure came out from behind the messy garbage, and only a pair of golden eyes were shining on the black face, vigilantly watching the stranger in front of him.

It was a little boy who was wearing coarse cloth clothes stained with oil, and the original color was almost impossible to see from the top and bottom of his body, and even his hair was stuck into strands of dirt because he had not washed it all year round. ”

Noticing that the little boy in front of me was very nervous and could flee at any time, I immediately used a hidden weapon: Sister, push my sister forward and leave nothing behind.

This is a rule that everyone firmly believes: as soon as my sister comes out, the bear children in the whole world will tremble!

With a warm smile with sugar content that can almost make people instantly in the middle and late stages of diabetes, my sister beckoned to the child not far away, although I think that smile is enough to make any bear child let down his guard, but surprisingly, the little boy not far away is still looking at us vigilantly, without the slightest appearance of approaching, and looking at his clenched fists and slightly trembling legs, it seems that the other party is still planning to run away - this makes my sister sigh in frustration.

"Ahem, don't be afraid, we're not bad people," I coughed lightly, but startled the other party, but fortunately, the other party didn't run away, and then I quickly stretched out my hand and pointed at Lilina, who was squatting on the ground trying to trick the mercury lamp into eating the wire, "Except for this." ”

Lilina suddenly jumped up like a spring: "Boss, you can't sauce purple!" ”

The mercury lamp quickly grabbed the corner of Lilina's skirt, and the one-meter-and-nine-meter-old Pope fell on the spot, and then the two little girls who occupied the lowest height in the house all the year round got together again.

"You're from Ayutthaya?"

It could be a child's slapstick (...... The boy across from him, who was also a child, let his guard down, and after a cautious look at us, he spoke timidly, his voice a little hoarse, but it sounded good.

The big city in the other party's mouth should be a place name, but we don't know what kind of big city is called on these floating space junk islands, but I still nodded: "How do you see it?" ”

"Only the people of Ayutthaya can wear such beautiful clothes, and you are very clean."

The little boy's gaze was constantly drawn to the mercury lamp, which was only 92.3 centimeters tall but screaming and moving, but he still knew how to answer my question, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the clothes on our bodies, with envy and fear in his eyes.

It seems that the "big city" he refers to is a place where the upper class live, and in the mind of this little boy, who is as dirty as the garbage heaps around him, it is probably a place that only the big people can approach, and the big people there are probably not very easy for him to get along.

Sandora and I couldn't help but look at each other for a moment, and quickly deduced the social status and mentality that the other party might have in this situation, and then Sandora nodded to the other side, with an expression that might be in line with the social status of the residents of the so-called "big city": "Well, we're from the big city, but what the hell is this place?" ”

The little boy was stunned, probably thinking that we were different from the "big city" people in his impression, but a small character like him would not think much about this kind of thing, and he pointed to the surrounding garbage dump: "This is the E-66 metal station, and below is the town of 'Condenser'. People in big cities rarely come to this kind of place, are you here to find people or things? I'm familiar with the environment......"

"What's your name?" My sister suddenly stepped forward and took a step, this time, the other party did not retreat, "We are just passing by, but we may stay for a day or two, well, you don't care what we do, but we do need a guide." ”

The little boy once again showed the same stunned expression as he did just now at his sister's word "passing by", and then replied quickly: "My name is Glick, and I am the son of the old Glick's family, and I am also the best guide in the town of 'Condenser'!" ”

After saying this, the little boy named Grek gave us a hopeful look, which made me stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted: the other party is asking for something like that.

It was so strange that just now he was trembling with fear of being beaten by our large gang of people, but now he began to ask us for remuneration like a cunning little businessman, and volunteered to be a guide, and I am sure that our group of outsiders must be out of place in his eyes, and even different from the "big city" people he knew, but this little boy has left these suspicious things behind him, and now he has begun to concentrate on seeking a little benefit for himself.

Of course, what kind of world view the other party has is not my concern, I am thinking about one thing now - what kind of currency should I come up with so that the other party will not be suspicious, and then obediently become our guide in this ruined world?

The renminbi is definitely not going to work, and the Imperial Coin Crystal Card that is common in the world of Hongshi is certainly not going to be able to do it - there is absolutely no place to swipe the card in this place, and the Koreans may announce that their banknotes can be used here, but I would believe them as well as Lilina's discipline.

But it didn't take a few seconds for this problem to be solved by the smart sister, she took out a small metal box with a silver light from the carry-on space, and then threw it forward, the small metal box hovered in mid-air, and then quickly transformed into a self-disciplined machine with a diameter of less than half a meter, with many mechanical arms, and projecting a large number of holographic images in the air. But this self-discipline machine can adapt to any job, and can modify its own structure in a very short time, and evolve a manipulator to adapt to new jobs - in short, this is a very common machine worker, which can be seen everywhere in the Imperial base, but I didn't expect my sister to carry this kind of thing with her, what is she doing with it?

"I've put a few greenhouses in my personal space," my sister leaned over and whispered, "they're in charge of watering and fertilizing." ”

Me: "......"

The little boy's attention was attracted by his sister's action of taking these things out of the air, but he didn't show a shocked look, just like we guessed, the space equipment of the Xiling Empire is not an unimaginable thing in this world, what really made the little boy exclaim was his sister's next sentence: "This is for you." ”
