Chapter 52: The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
The woman looked back at me, her face gloomy and her face like frost.
"Get out? If I knew the way out, would I still stay here? ”
I think, too!
I didn't ask any more, looking at the charred woods in front of me, thick and pungent black smoke rising into the sky, and charred corpses everywhere, as far as the eye could see, there was no living thing, what was this, what the hell was it.
Suddenly, "click", a bolt of lightning streaked across the blood-red sky, followed by a loud "boom", and a dull thunder rolled in the dark clouds, deafening.
In an instant, the wind rose and the earth shook.
"What's going on?"
I was shocked.
"Let's go!"
Before I could understand what was going on, the woman had already taken my hand and swept forward.
Suddenly, the ground under his feet suddenly collapsed, cracked into ravines, mountains collapsed, lakes flooded, and dead trees and corpses fell one after another.
The wind whistled past our ears, and our figures ran and jumped in the ravines.
I looked down, and the crack under my feet gradually expanded, and it was pitch black inside, unfathomable, revealing an eerie aura.
"What happened?"
"If you want to live, don't talk!"
The woman's fiery red hair rose in the wind, her brows furrowed, her eyes revealing a fierce aura, and her ten fingers were slender, clutching my wrists.
"It's almost there!"
I looked up and saw a white hurricane rising from the abyss ahead, a violent current that swept everything around me.
"Jump in, can you still live?". I was stunned.
The woman ignored me and took my hand and jumped over.
Suddenly, my body suddenly spun along with the air current, and I felt that the sky was spinning, my heart was beating faster, and at this time, it was as if I was covered by something, and I had difficulty breathing, and a strong feeling of suffocation came again.
My consciousness gradually blurred, and in a hazy sense, I only felt that my body was being dragged upwards.
"Smack~Slap"
I opened my eyes suddenly, and all I felt was a burning pain in my face. Seeing that I woke up, the woman stopped raising her hand in mid-air.
"It's good that you're not dead!"
The woman withdrew her hand, smiled gently, and didn't slap me again.
I struggled to sit up, and I felt a pain all over my body, presumably I must have hit something hard like dead trees and gravel in the hurricane.
"Where is this?". I asked, confused.
"The top of the hurricane!"
The woman stood up and looked down at everything beneath her feet, and under the clouds, the rapid raindrops fell "whoosh".
I looked at the white air flow under my feet, thousands of feet in the sky, here is like a lotus flower out of the water, let the water surface of the flower surge, the flower does not move.
"How did you get into this space?". The woman turned around and asked in a cold voice.
"Pool!"
"Pool?"
Hearing this, a look of doubt flashed in the woman's eyes, but she didn't say anything more.
"How did you get in?"
I asked, looking at the woman's cold face.
From what she has just experienced, it can be seen that she knows the situation here well, but it is hard to imagine how she survived in such a cruel environment.
The woman didn't answer, she took out the black metal box from her waist, and as the woman's fingers clicked between the pillars of light, a staccato sound came from the box.
"Brian, report your location!"
"Yue... Yueheng Mountains.. A.. Zone A..."
The sound of gasps responded, mixed with the roar of the beast and the sound of falling stones.
"Specific coordinates, Brian... Brian..."
Then there was a shrill "magnetic magnetism", and the sound seemed to be disturbed by something.
"Brian, please answer when you receive it! Please answer when you receive it! ”
"Magneto~Magneto..."
At this point, the sound stopped abruptly.
"Yue Heng Mountain Range?". I muttered.
"Three years ago, the Han Regiment detected a strange energy fluctuation in the Yue Heng Mountains, as if it was some kind of signal sent to the outside world, and in order to find out the truth, they sent a five-person team to investigate."
The woman glanced at me with cold eyes, ignoring my confused expression, and continued: "When they arrived at Area A of the mountain range, the communication was suddenly interrupted, for this reason, Ye Ante personally led the team to the lost place, we followed the abnormal energy, all the way to the center of the earth, and I was separated from them in the dark."
"Energy fluctuations, electromagnetic communications, geocentric?"
I interrupted the woman, my mind blank, completely unintelligible about what she was saying.
In this regard, the woman's expression was indifferent, and she did not seem to be surprised, and she did not say any more.
Suddenly, there was a shaking under her feet, and the woman hurriedly looked down and said coldly: "Go down!" ”
Before I could react, she grabbed my arm and leaped away, and our figures plummeted down, instantly swept into the hurricane again.
I don't know how many times I rotated with the current, but I felt a tumbling river in my belly.
Not long after, the wind suddenly weakened, and my body suddenly fell again.
"Ah~Bang Dang"
My body slammed into the ground, and there was no pain, only a little sticky all over my body.
When I opened my eyes, I landed on the corpse of an unknown creature, covered in rotting flesh and entrails, and the smell was terrible.
I struggled to my feet, fluid flesh dripping from me.
The woman looked at me from afar, and it was clear from her indifferent expression that she had no intention of coming to help.
I flicked my sleeves, and the mixture of flesh and blood fell from me to the ground with a "click", and I looked down at the rotten rotten flesh that remained on my arm, and I immediately retched.
I was about to take off my clothes, but I found that the woman was staring at me with a cold glow, so I had to give up.
"Follow me!"
Looking at the woman's distant back, I had to hold my breath and quickly followed.
The ravines under his feet have become flat, and the woods have long since disappeared. As far as the eye can see, the sky and the earth are pitch black and lifeless.
There was a dull ache in my arm, and I looked down to see a little black spot on my arm, as if it had been burned by something.
"It's here!"
The woman stopped, and a pool of water appeared in front of her, and the calm water surface was like a mirror, reflecting the heavens and the earth.
The pale blue water is crystal clear, but there is no bottom in sight. From time to time, there were ripples on the surface of the water, and something seemed to swim in the water.
I turned my head to look around, the earth as black as ink, as far as the eye could see, with gusts of wind blowing and the smell of decay.
"This water?"
My brow furrowed, the scorched earth around me, and the grass and flowers at the edge of the pool were still green, and the flowers were in full bloom, out of place with the surroundings.
The woman saw the worry in my heart and said, "If you don't wash it again, then your skin will festered little by little until your body turns into a pool of blood!" ”
I looked down, and there was a sharp pain in my arm, the wrinkled skin suddenly cracked, and the red blood slowly dripped down my fingertips.
The previous rain was strongly corrosive, and although it was only indirectly in contact with the corpse, it was still corrosive!
I turned my head to look at the woman, and she stared at me, as if she had no intention of leaving.
"Do you want to watch me wash?"
