Chapter 115: Doomsday Tower
Not to mention, compared to ordinary abilities such as beastification, control of fire/ice/lightning, and speed enhancement, Huang Yuwen's driving mastery ability is really easy to use.
The commercial vehicle turned into a tank, running over all the way, and all the obstacles on the road were knocked away.
And when it hits violently, it can also make Chen Ji and a few people in the car not be affected too much, and even the physical phenomenon of tire slippage can be eliminated, and the car runs smoothly.
The commercial vehicle took the lead, and more than 20 armed transport vehicles followed, and those who didn't know thought it was a big guy traveling, but in fact, it was the commercial vehicle that was forced to open the way.
"Have you ever thought about flying a rocket?"
After thinking about it, Chen Ji asked him.
"Don't!"
Huang Yuwen, who was driving, shook his hand, and refused again and again with a bitter face: "After I awakened the ability, Professor Zhang of the laboratory told me about it the next day, I don't dare to drive a rocket unless I drive the car out of the speed of the rocket!" ”
Several people in the car burst out laughing.
Huang Yuwen's ability has been tested and works on the EMU, but the effect is minimal, and it should be limited by the strength of the ability.
Theoretically, rockets are also transporters, and his abilities can also play a role, perhaps making them more powerful and less likely to cause accidents.
But the point is.
How do you come back after you go to heaven?
There is no point in simply going to the sky, you have to go to the sun to take a look, this time and again, there are too many problems.
Unless Huang Yuwen's abnormal ability becomes extremely strong and drives the car out of the speed of a rocket, he will not dare to go.
But even if he can't shoot a rocket, this ability of his is very useful.
Chen Ji is now sitting firmly in the back seat of the commercial vehicle, looking at the frozen apocalyptic scene outside the window under the lights of more than 20 cars.
Last time he was on the highway and didn't go to the city center.
This time the team drove straight into the city center.
Along the way, the streets are silent and dilapidated, lifeless, and covered with ice and snow, which makes people feel heavy to watch.
Close to the city center, the most shocking scene after the end of the world unfolded in front of Chen Ji.
Buildings of more than two hundred meters tall towered in the icy darkness.
In the distance, the 400-meter-high Nanzhu Financial Building, the nearly 500-meter-high TV Tower, two 300-meter-high twin buildings, hotels, stock trading centers, bank buildings, real estate head offices, the headquarters of Dayang Insurance Company and so on.
They all stood silently in the snow and ice, whining as the wind blew in through the broken windows.
These high-rise buildings are like tombstones, burying a modern civilized past.
"If you didn't come to ......"
Mu Xiaoxiao, who had been looking out the window, suddenly spoke, but soon realized that he shouldn't talk about this topic and closed his mouth again.
"If it weren't for Chen Ji, I don't know what the world would be, but I definitely won't be able to hold on."
Zhou Wan said softly, her eyes looking at him.
Chen Ji smiled, "Why do you talk about this again?" Didn't I make a lot of money from you, too? ”
"Hmm...... Then I won't talk about it later, I'll just remember. ”
The two were chatting.
Mu Xiaoxiao was not in the mood to listen, she thought of the world she was in.
If the Nine Domains do not change, the heaven and earth will be even more miserable and terrifying than the scene in front of them.
She had to do something.
……
The convoy came to the destination 500 meters away and turned off the fire, the high beams were changed to low beams, and the combat team got out of the car to be on guard.
"Arrived?"
Chen Ji looked around, it was still dark, and he couldn't see what the road was, but he only knew that this was Huangjiang District.
"The target point is in front, I'll get out of the car and discuss with them, do you want to get out of the car?"
Zhou Wan stood up and prepared to get out of the car.
It's too cold outside, you don't need everyone to go out, just stay in the car and wait.
"I'll go, little you wait."
Chen Ji knew that the empress was not interested in the so-called tactics, and she preferred to speak with the sword in her hand.
When I got out of the car, the cold wind was biting.
Fortunately, Chen Ji has the ability to warm his body at any time, and he can use it when he is too cold to stand it.
Coming to the command combat vehicle, Chen Ji and Zhou Wan observed the meeting.
On the way, he had already heard Zhou Wan talk about mutant white mice.
As the rat infestation intensified, several settlements in Haishi worked together to capture mutant rats, install locators on them, and release them into the city.
After the apocalypse, a large number of communication base stations were destroyed, so if you want to collect signals, you also need to send a team, carry relevant instruments, collect locator signals and send them to satellites, so as to obtain positioning.
After a period of hard work, the Haishi Command Center finally confirmed that there was a big suspicion in one place.
Somewhere in Huangjiang District, three locators were gathered together.
After several round-trips to collect signals, it was found that the number of locators here had risen to eight.
It is almost certain that there is a nest of mutant rats.
"Chen Ji, what about your suggestion?"
After the arrangements were made, Qiu Chengguo asked for his opinion.
Chen Ji listened to it just now and probably summed up four points.
First, to ensure logistics and communications, to prevent the inability to flee after the rout.
Second, led by the supernatural, every time he enters a building to explore, he arranges an air cushion downstairs as an emergency escape method, and with Kong Xiaomin's healing ability, as long as he doesn't hit his head, he can rescue it.
The normal team is responsible for guarding against other mutant rats from surrounding and attacking.
Third, focus on finding out the reasons why mutant rats are unusually cunning, and the secondary thing is to eliminate them.
Finally, if it's too dangerous, quit and call in missiles to destroy the dangerous place, even the building with it.
After the sun is extinguished, the powder keg of humanity is still there, and the mutated creatures are not enough to see.
But I'm afraid that mutant rats are hiding at a depth of several hundred meters.
Chen Ji thought for a moment and said, "I think that since those rats are different from other mutant creatures, there must be something special about them, and you need to be cautious and deal with them when you act." ”
"Yes." Duan Zhengyan nodded.
"One more thing."
Chen Ji said: "If you encounter a particularly dangerous place and it is difficult to expand the formation, you can enter by me and Mu Xiaoxiao, she and I have a special life-saving ability, it is not convenient to tell you the specifics, but it is very strong." ”
The ability to save life across the world is not only strong.
Everyone was stunned.
And the ability?
"Let's talk about it later."
Before others asked, Zhou Wan took a step forward and said.
She actually didn't agree with Chen Ji and Mu Xiaoxiao going on an adventure, if she had to go, then she would accompany Chen Ji together.
Chen Ji has no opinion.
"Alright, let's get moving!"
After confirming the final plan, the convoy moved on, close to where the locator had been issued, and got off at an intersection to set up a makeshift camp.
It used to be a bustling business district, with a large number of low-rise shops on both sides of the street, as well as a number of 100-meter-tall buildings.
The locator signal has disappeared and can only be searched slowly.
"It's a little familiar here."
After Chen Ji got out of the car, under the illumination of the lights, he felt that the surrounding streets were somewhat familiar, so he said casually.
In particular, a thirty-story building gave him a stronger sense of familiarity.
However, the two parallel worlds of Haishi and Haicheng are originally in the same location on the map, but some details are different, and it is normal to feel familiar.
"My old company is not far away."
Zhou Wan pointed him in the direction with her white fingers, but unfortunately it was dark in the distance, and she couldn't see which building it was.
"And my parents' company, which is also there, I ...... It's nothing. ”
The thoughts that poured out when he touched the scene were quickly suppressed deep in Zhou Wan's heart.
Now is not the time to talk about this, it is already the greatest luck to be alive.
Chen Ji patted her slender shoulder, the strong Zhou Wan actually has a vulnerable side, but she rarely shows it.
"Hmm... I'm fine, let's go. ”
Zhou Wan smiled at him, and her delicate facial features were exposed in the cold wind.
Three of the five combat squads were left to protect the vehicles and logistics, and the guns were set up in the makeshift camp, and there was no shortage of firepower.
The two teams followed, but it was too cold outside, and if they couldn't hold on, they had to go back to the camp and change to someone else.
Chen Ji and Zhou Wan walked together, Qiu Chengguo led the soldiers to follow, Mu Xiaoxiao walked in front with a sword, she was wearing a cloak with a hood, and she took it off once there was a battle.
The group walked on the dark commercial street, and seven or eight bright flashlights constantly scanned the surroundings.
No one spoke much, and after the appearance of mutant creatures, the vast majority of people were accustomed to being silent in the dark.
"It's quiet."
Chen Ji suddenly spoke.
Not only were there no traces of mutant rats around, but even other mutant creatures were not attracted.
"Indeed...... Zhu Gao, you use your abilities. ”
Zhou Wan looked at a person with an enhanced sense of smell and hearing, who took off his mask and quickly shook his head: "There is no special smell, and I didn't hear any sound." ”
He quickly covered his mouth and nose again, revealing only a pair of eyes.
It's too cold outside.
"Hopefully, mutant rats aren't deep underground."
Qiu Chengguo said a word, and asked the team members to disperse the search a little, and act in groups of five to search the shops on both sides of the street.
Zhou Wan didn't move, she stood in the middle.
If she encounters an enemy, she can reach it in a few steps.
After the team spread, the search speed was much faster.
But unfortunately, there is still nothing to discover.
The ground is covered with snow and ice, and there are no big rat holes.
The group returned to the camp, trimmed up a little, warmed themselves up with a cup of hot water, and continued off to another street.
After searching for nearly an hour, I briefly searched all the buildings below seven floors, but still found nothing.
Chen Ji once again looked at the thirty-story building in the commercial street.
He had a familiarity with the building.
But now, Chen Ji felt that it was very uncomfortable, and the building stood in the cold wind, as if there was something in it.
It's a pity that this feeling doesn't seem like a sudden feeling in the martial arts world, it's just a subconscious feeling.
"You think the rats are in a tall building?"
Zhou Wan asked him.
"Then go look for it, and if you can't find it, blow it up with a bomb!"
Mu Xiaoxiao on the side was so cold that his hands and feet stiffened, and he originally wanted to fight with the mutant rat king, but now he didn't find anything.
"Shall we go into that mall and search?"
Qiu Chengguo pointed to a shopping mall in the distance.
The previous search did not go deeper, but only illuminated the inside with a flashlight at the entrance of the mall.
If there is a rat nest, an empty shopping mall is a good place to make a nest.
Chen Ji nodded and did not express an opinion.
With his back to the building, he followed the crowd to the entrance of the mall.
"Be careful when you go in, and if you see a bulge on the ground or a closed doorway, you must report it before searching......"
Qiu Chengguo was telling the combat team to pay attention, suddenly.
Chen Ji turned around suddenly, and two slender rays of light bloomed in his eyes, passing through the darkness and cold wind, and falling to the nineteenth floor of the building.
The crowd was taken aback and followed.
But the light is too thin.
Nothing could be seen on the distant building, only the slender light that turned into stars and disappeared.
Everyone looked at him in unison.
"What did you find?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked with interest, very curious about Chen Ji's new ability.
"It's like ......"
Chen Ji frowned, recalling the feeling just now: "I saw a person's face, sticking to the window to look at us. ”
The chill that rose in everyone's hearts was even worse than that of the outside world.
In the darkness of the apocalypse, there is still a person living on a tall building?
There is another one at night, which is slower, so you can see it again tomorrow.
