Chapter 1: The Wasteland
The sun is scorching. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
There is no trace of anyone within a radius of hundreds of miles. In addition to the desert sand, it is also the desert sand.
There is only endless wind and sand here.
Liu Chao's mobile phone still has no signal.
After the last half bottle of mineral water has been drunk, if the mobile phone still can't find the nearest signal station...... Probably...... I'm going to die in this desert, right?
So, what about the two B+ capable people who have been chasing after them all the way?
At this moment, they have already been forced to make the decision to give up?
If we continue to chase them, they will also die here to be buried for me!
This is the legendary Taklamakan Desert where "once you come in, you can't get out".
Of course, if a professional team drives a four-wheel drive off-road vehicle and is equipped with satellite GPS navigation equipment, it is actually not difficult to cross this desert. However, once a hiker leaves the cell phone service area and goes deep into the desert hinterland alone, it is a matter of death.
Liu Chao also had no other way, so he had to venture into this place of death.
He was desperate.
As a rookie who has just awakened some incredible ability and has not yet had time to master the essentials, he was suddenly unexpectedly chased and killed by two B+ ability...... Basically, there is no possibility of escape.
Luckily, those two Chasers seem to be a certain series that focuses on water in terms of talent. The extreme drought and scorching sun exposure will be quite unbearable for those two guys, right?
In the past three days, Liu Chao fled all the way west, and the two pursuers chased after him.
Yesterday evening, a sandstorm broke out on the edge of the desert.
Wind is an extremely favorable factor for Liu Chao.
The ability he had just awakened happened to have a lot to do with the wind.
So he had to seize the opportunity and venture into the depths of the sandstorm......
After tossing and turning in the middle of the night, I finally escaped.
However......
Unfortunately, in the middle of a desert storm, in the dark of night, after several hours of drifting with the wind, he lost his way completely.
The desert storm raging in the dark night with no fingers to reach out took him to a completely strange place.
At this moment, Liu Chao was trapped alone in the depths of the desert.
A deserted place far from cell phone base stations.
Under the scorching sun, Liu Chao did not plan to take any action during the day. That would consume too much energy and water.
What should be done now is to reduce the consumption of physical energy as much as possible and control the evaporation process of water in the body to the lowest possible level.
After nightfall, he would try to continue flying westward to escape the wasteland.
If, until the moment of exhaustion, you can't leave this place smoothly, then ...... Let's sleep here silently.
Thinking so in his heart, Liu Chao switched his phone to power-saving mode.
He didn't directly choose to shut down. Shutting down may miss some of the more precious opportunities to escape.
Slowly, slowly with your fingers...... In the bunker, little by little...... Dig down.
The scorching sun of the day is not conducive to action, and I have figured it out last night. So not long after dawn today, he began to dig a pit on the spot.
In order to save his physical strength, his digging movements were very gentle, and the progress was quite slow.
In fact, there is no need to rush too much. He didn't need to dig up a perfect grave that was two meters long, one meter wide and half a meter deep enough to bury him alive like in the movie. That kind of European tomb can be dug so standardly just to better place the coffin?
Liu Chao only needs a shallow pit that can accommodate him at the moment, mainly to avoid the wind, and to avoid a small part of the sun. The continuous blowing of the hot wind will quickly take away a lot of water from the body. If you can avoid it, you must avoid it as soon as possible.
At this moment, only half of the day had passed, and the work of digging the pit was almost complete.
The next thing to do is to wait for the sunset to come.
That's when an accident happened.
The two hands that were about to complete the last process of digging the pit, the fingertips of the ring finger of the right hand, suddenly, felt a tingling pain, and then, the numbness on the fingers hit one after another.
Damn it! I forgot for a moment! The desert terrain has always been infested with poisonous scorpions.
Bell Grylls, the anchor of the famous exploration show "Survival in the Wild" column, once said: Scorpions are a high-protein food, and they should not be missed when they pass by, and if they can be caught, they must be eaten. Catching scorpions is risky! Eating scorpions with caution must be careful not to sting your fingers by the tail of a scorpion.
Liu Chao's heart was mixed with joy and sorrow.
Sadly, for the time being, it is not clear whether the damage caused by a poisonous scorpion is fatal or paralyzed.
If the damage of this venom is negligible, it is just a tingling itch. Don't delay our super brother at all, like Bei Ye, chew a lot. Become a powerful man at the top of the food chain like Bei Ye!
If it's fatal...... So...... Suddenly there is no passion for eating meat!
People are going to die!
Liu Chao didn't care about saving or not saving physical strength now, he turned around suddenly like a harrier turning over, and was engrossed in carefully examining the overall situation, intending to hunt more poisonous scorpions that appeared in the sand pit one by one.
It is not known whether a scorpion is so poisonous that it will kill a person, and it is certain that if it is stung by a group of scorpions, it will definitely die.
If you don't want to die easily, you have to start fighting now.
If only it could be stopped from being stung...... If a considerable number of scorpions can be caught...... This drought-tolerant creature is not only extremely rich in protein, but also has some blood tissue fluid and other strange saps that are not clear...... The problem of hunger and thirst can be solved for the time being.
As for the scorpion, how to do it, which can effectively maintain a relatively sufficient amount of water in the body under the scorching sun, Liu Chao does not know, and now he does not want to know the trick of evolutionary science.
He knew that at least, scorpion blood and scorpion venom were liquids, and scorpion venom could be drunk as a drink. That thing is also the legendary blood-sealing poison. Seeing blood and sealing the throat means that if you don't see blood, you don't seal your throat. As long as there is no trauma to the mouth and throat, you can drink it with confidence, and the nutrients obviously crush the brain platinum or Tiandi No. 1 oral liquid.
Suddenly, he jumped up as if he had been electrocuted, and instantly scanned the current environmental data: a total of seventy-two dark golden poisonous scorpions poured out densely from the bottom of the sand pit under his feet.
This...... It's actually good!
Liu Chao, who was still extremely worried that he would be trapped in the hinterland of the arid desert and eventually die of dehydration, seemed to be in the eyes of Nima, a dense large area, not a dangerous little creature at all, okay, this is clearly a dense large piece of nutrition express or pulsating drink!
The next question is: how do you hunt or capture these little creatures, and how do you make sure your fingers don't get hurt again?
This method is easy to say! Difficult to say!
After all, Liu Chao is a B-level ability who has just awakened.
According to the grading standards of the world of abilities, and according to the current strength of our super brother, he felt that he should probably be classified into the B- level.
Class C refers to normal mortal humans. Grade D is a person who is born with a disability that is deficient in some aspect of ability. As for the E-class, that's obviously a rather sad existence. E-class creatures belong to the category of such defective creatures, once such a defective product is born, the parents of the person concerned will feel pain on the spot, and they want to be destroyed immediately and humanely. Such a wretched little wretched worm.
Anyone who has awakened any superpowers can theoretically be classified as B-level abilities.
B-level is B-, which is weaker than the average social level of the able-being, and B+, which is better than the normal level of the public face in a particular area.
The accumulation of quantitative changes will eventually lead to qualitative changes, and when the B+ ability person gains a great leap in nature, the super strong people who can be called metamorphosis can no longer accommodate the domain of the B-level ability, and the kind of objects that are so powerful that they are metamorphosed will be classified as A-level.
Liu Chao felt that according to his strength, he should be a B-rookie beginner.
However, if another type of identification is made according to the criteria of rarity and rarity of superpower attributes, according to the principle of rarity is precious, it is very likely that he is a potential A-grade. Probably, this is the reason why some people go to great lengths to hunt down and kill themselves!
A future A-class, a man destined to become a strong man, sweeping a group of ant-like desert scorpions, can there still be any suspense?
Basically, there shouldn't be any suspense.
But it's not entirely without a bit of suspense.
The only suspense is ......
Liu Chao doubted, just suspected, that he was a potential A-level ability, but until this moment, he didn't know how to use the rather peculiar superpower that he had just awakened.
Therefore, there is still a little bit of suspense about whether you can retreat surrounded by scorpions and harvest this dense and large number of nutrient express lines as you wish.
It's a thrilling moment that isn't particularly thrilling......
And more surprises to come!
Liu Chao's mobile phone happened to make a few inaudible "ding" sounds.
It seems to be...... System beep!
I didn't choose to shut down the phone because of the concern of saving power just now, and it was a pretty wise decision!
......
