Chapter 298: Let's Go! Eastern Hunting Zone! (5)
659 raised his legs and stepped into the exit, the oncoming cold wind changed from howling to furious, and at the same time, a warm feeling came from all parts of the body covered by the protective suit, like a girl's caressing, fitting and comfortable.
"It's really worthy of the technological creation of the Python clan, such a light and thin material can completely isolate the outdoor environment."
The earthy metal door closed silently behind 659, as if it had never been opened.
Similar to when he first arrived, the violent cold wind mixed with a large number of sand and hail crashed against the hazmat suit, making a crackling sound, and 659 took a closer look, and found that the hailstones, which were originally only the size of rice grains, had grown to the size of soybeans.
"Looks like we're going to have to hurry......"
With a word in his mouth, 659 didn't take out the map given by Bai Donggu, and directly chose a random direction in the darkness and walked forward.
I don't know if it's because of the special area around the entrance, or because the climate should be so bad at the current point in time, the red moon that originally hung in the sky has been obscured by thick clouds, and the only light source on the ground is the moonlight that barely penetrates the clouds.
In such a dimly lit environment, 659 could only see what was within five steps of his body, and farther away, he could only see a vague darkness.
If there is any existence around that wants to sneak attack, in such an environment, it is undoubtedly like a fish in water.
"I didn't expect the lighting conditions to be so bad......"
659 behind the mask whispered a sentence, and in less than half a second, the pale green data stream quickly crossed the mirror in front of his right eye, reflecting in his deep eyes.
"Infrared detection has been activated and is adapting to the current illumination"
After a while, the originally transparent lens turned a faint gray-black, releasing a faint green light on the side facing 659's eyes, clearly revealing the surrounding scene.
But after seeing his surroundings clearly, 659's brow did not loosen, but wrinkled a little more.
"How can the visibility still be so low, these foggy things, could it be the sand and gravel set up by the storm?"
With the help of infrared imaging, the brightness in the 659 viewing angle has indeed been greatly improved, but it is only enough to see the scenery within 20 steps, and then there is a foggy patch, and it is still difficult to see the details.
Looking back, the hemispherical fortress that marked the entrance to the dungeon was already hidden in the fog, and only the general outline could be seen.
659 reached out and scooped up the air a few times, then spread his palm in front of him, and a "stream" of sand and stones flowed out from between his fingers, quickly blown away by the strong wind, and re-submerged in the air.
"It seems that it is really dust raised by sand and stones, and it is not a special creature......
muttering a low sentence in his mouth, 659 reluctantly let go of the worries in his heart, turned around and walked in the direction he came.
The map of the eastern hunting area given by Bai Donggu has already been recorded in a monocle by 659, which can be called up and viewed anytime and anywhere, which is very convenient.
But in the current dusty environment, it is not easy to find the right direction.
After ten minutes or so, 659 was still walking near the entrance of the dungeon, as if he was measuring something with his footsteps.
"Sure enough, the magnetic poles are still stable, which explains why the human-faced lizards Dacai and Xiaocai were able to accurately identify the direction of the dungeon entrance in a sandstorm......"
After a long circle, 659 returned to his original position, and in the process of wandering just now, he had roughly determined this place
The magnetic poles are distributed, and a certain direction is selected in the dark, according to the instructions given in the monocle.
"Let's go!"
659 took a deep breath and was about to take his first step, but suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he took back his raised foot.
"I have to show my left arm, or I won't even have the weapons to resist in case of any danger."
Looking at his left hand, the black hazmat suit was wrapped around its surface, and the mechanical artifact in it was completely invisible.
Although the left arm can still be used with a ball lightning generator while wrapped in clothing, it can perform a series of strike maneuvers.
But 659 can't guarantee that this series of operations will not blow up the Daredevil protective suit.
In the unlikely event that the Daredevil suit loses its function of keeping warm after being blown up, then it is very likely that he will die of hypothermia in this cold environment.
After all, according to the day-night variation of this timeline, the current point in time is just night.
It doesn't take long for the cold and darkness to begin, and the surrounding climate gets harsher and harsher as time goes on.
Without the thermal insulation function of the protective suit, even a Boundary Breaker like Zhang Heng-659 would not be able to guarantee survival in the cold.
So to be on the safe side, it's better to expose your left arm in advance.
Anyway, this left arm is a completely mechanical creation, and there is no need to worry about the cold of the environment affecting its function.
Having made up his mind, 659 fumbled around with the Daredevil suit.
The White General had told him that the Daredevil suit was highly adaptable, and could be tailored to the most suitable look based on the wearer's ideas.
The premise is that the Daredevil suit has an adequate supply of energy.
I saw Zhang Heng-659 holding his right hand up, starting from his left wrist and rolling up his forearm, as if rolling up his sleeves.
Wherever the right palm was touched, the scales on the protective suit began to tremble slightly, and after a while, they were like ant colonies scattered and fled, quickly merging into the main body of clothing.
The silvery-white metal arm was exposed to the cold wind, and the faint blue light that came through it was like a firefly, illuminating the darkness around 659.
"Uh...... Forgot to think about light sources...... If you do this, it seems that it is easy to expose yourself in the dark......"
Although the blue glimmer is not intense, it is indeed quite eye-catching in this dark environment.
If 659 maintains this state, it will undoubtedly give those potential ambush targets a target, and blatantly tell the other party - I'm here, you come and me......
"Let's stand by for the time being, anyway, it only takes three seconds to fully start in standby mode, so there shouldn't be any problems......"
As 659's voice landed, a low hum came from the left arm of the machine that shimmered with a glowing blue light, and the light in the gap gradually faded until it disappeared completely.
Sinking into the darkness again, 659, ready to go, took a step and plunged headlong into the storm.
Heavy dark clouds were tightly arranged in the sky, and as Zhang Heng-659 continued to advance, the storm around him began to gradually become fierce, and the flying sand and rocks crackled against the mask of the Daredevil protective suit, making a small cracking sound.
Coupled with the surrounding dark environment, it seems that 659 is the only one left on the entire earth, slowly advancing in this endless desolation.
"The storm around me is getting stronger, but it doesn't seem to be hindering my progress."
After traveling for a while, 659 was somewhat surprised
The characteristics of the storm were discovered.
It stands to reason that walking in a storm that can blow sand and gravel should be a difficult task, but 659 didn't feel much resistance.
This is not to say that the Daredevil suit has an anti-weather function, which can reduce the wind resistance when the wearer travels.
It's because there's something eerie about the storm around it.
The velocity of the air, while fast, is also unusually disturbed.
It doesn't flow in a certain direction, but keeps changing positions.
From the ground to the air, a large amount of sand and gravel were carried with it, raising pieces of dust and mist.
Because of this, small tornadoes of human height will form around 659 from time to time, which will last for tens of seconds before being blown away by stronger winds.
Everything is so chaotic, but if you look closely, there seems to be a pattern hidden in it.
"This climate is not like a naturally occurring ......"
659's mind kept thinking, and his steps did not pause, still following the instructions given in the lenses.
After nearly a hundred paces, 659 suddenly noticed that the raging storm around him seemed to be showing signs of weakening.
With each step outward, there are fewer grains of sand tumbling in the air.
It's just that the soybean-sized hail is still crackling, but it is not flying in the sky like before, and there are a lot of rules.
"The wind has stopped?"
Feeling the changes in his surroundings, 659 lowered his mask curiously.
Untreated air poured into the face door, and although the temperature was low, it was no longer the rage it had before.
Looking back, the rolling sandstone tornadoes were still raging in the back, but they didn't affect 659 in the slightest.
It was as if there was an invisible boundary blocking it, and inside the boundary was a raging wind, and outside the boundary was a different world.
"Storm Tower?"
The strange scene at the moment made 659 stunned for a moment, and then thought of some kind of technological creation he had seen before.
"The Storm Tower, a level 0.9 civilization creation, can freely change the climate of a region when the energy supply is sufficient."
A pale green stream of data swiped across the lenses, confirming the accuracy of 659's memory.
"It's not surprising that there are storm towers, but why use this thing to create a storm, isn't it usually supposed to regulate the climate and prevent catastrophic weather from happening......
"The Exotic Reclamation of Vegetable Skeletons"
In 659's memory, the Storm Tower is not a rare technological creation, and the technical core of it is not high-end, as long as the problem of energy supply is solved, with the scientific and technological level of the Red Moon World, it is not a strange thing to be able to make it.
But the blame is on the weather.
While the name of the Storm Tower may sound like some kind of weapon of mass destruction, it is actually an artificial creation designed to combat the catastrophic weather.
Storm towers are basically standing in the center of an area, and the climate of the area is regulated by means of devices within them.
When catastrophic weather is about to occur, the device inside the storm tower can be activated to interfere with the surrounding airflow, so as to minimize the damage of the disaster.
But now it's quiet and peaceful outside, but it's windy inside.
Obviously, the storm tower at the entrance to the dungeon was not used to prevent the occurrence of severe weather, but on the contrary, it further contributed to the formation of the storm, causing layers of sandstorms around the entrance......
