Chapter 408 Arrival(1/2)
The departure of Li Hao, Ding Shi, Yao Yingxue and Landuo did not cause much trouble in Class 6. After a period of surprise, the students returned to their past, as if they had never been here.
I just occasionally think of Li Hao, who was in the late stage of secondary school disease, Ding Shi, the beautiful and cold Yao Yingxue, and the gentle and handsome Lando...
Fang Shuicheng looked at the seats that were vacant for the four people, and looked a little dazed. He only felt that all the "interesting" people in the class had left, and all the people left were boring people. It seemed that there were no people who were usually bullying.
Not long after, even the class teacher left, and it is said that he was transferred to a better school.
…………
Three days later, the four people arrived at the designated meeting place.
Si Kang and Ding Man have been waiting for a while.
Three heavy off-road vehicles with yellow and green appeared in front of you.
Unlike the square shapes of common vehicles, these off-road vehicles are trapezoidal, with a wide chassis and gradually narrowing on top. The body is extremely wide, comparable to a large bus.
The four of them followed Si Kang and Ding Man into the car in the middle, and then the three cars started.
After only about an hour walking on the normal section, the convoy turned into the wilderness.
Inside the car, you can see the view outside the car through thick dark glass.
Si Kang explained: "Our goal is too big, and it's a big problem. We need to change the routes many times along the way, but don't worry, we will enter our supply station to rest on the way."
The journey was extremely boring, and Li Hao also came back to his senses from the novelty of leaving the city at the beginning and became chatty.
After thinking about it, Li Hao asked, "Why do we have to take a bus? There should be faster transportation methods, such as... an airplane!"
Although Li Hao has never seen a plane, and it seems that there is no such facility as an airport in Tianping City, isn’t this a common means of transportation in TV and movies?
Dingman shook his head and was about to explain, but then he suddenly noticed the situation outside, so he said, "It just so happens that you can look outside."
When Li Hao heard this, he looked at the place where Ding Man pointed. There were lush grass in the distance, and vaguely, dozens of black dots seemed to approach their convoy.
"That's...what?"
Li Hao murmured to himself, but no one answered his words.
In fact, there is no need to answer, because in just a dozen seconds, the dozens of black dots came quickly to them from far to near.
It was a dozen gray giant wolf with a height of nearly two meters and a body of about four meters long!
The giant wolf's eyes were filled with scarlet light, and their claws were exposed, emitting a ferocious and fierce aura.
Just seeing them, Li Hao felt a cool air rushing up and was a little at a loss.
At this time, Si Kang was also observing their performance. He saw Li Hao's appearance, but it was not surprising. After all, he lived in the city since childhood and had never seen a child in the real world.
Ding Shi's condition was similar. His muscles were tense at this time, and he stared at the wolf pack outside.
It was Yao Yingxue and Landuo, their faces were calm and calm.
Si Kang nodded slightly to Ding Man, who immediately took out a small walkie-talkie and said, "Team 3, go and clear the 'obstacles'."
"Shis! ~ Team 3 received it!"
The first two cars turned slightly and bypassed the wolves slightly, while the third car rushed straight towards the wolves.
The wolves obviously had the wisdom of hunting. They did not care about the two cars that left, but rushed towards the third car.
Seeing this scene, Li Hao and Ding Shi couldn't help but worry.
At this moment, they saw a scene that they would never forget for their lives.
The door of the third car suddenly opened, and five black shadows rushed out of it. They walked through the wolves quickly. The bloody flowers exploded, and the wolves wailed, as if they wanted to retreat, but their speed was far inferior to the black shadow.
The two sides confronted each other... No, it was a unilateral massacre in just over a dozen seconds, and the wolves were killed and injured.
Only then did Li Hao see clearly the five black shadows, which turned out to be five robots?
No, it should be said that they are five soldiers wearing individual mechas!
Dingman said: "That is the 'Soldier Type I' mecha recently developed by the institute. It has extremely excellent combat effectiveness in melee individual soldiers and its cost is to be mass-produced. It is one of the main weapons of the Special Affairs Department at present."
As the distance gradually grew farther, Li Hao could no longer see the situation there, and finally only saw the mecha soldiers collecting the corpses of the giant wolf.
"Back to the question you just now, before the arrival of the 'Demon', our country's transportation network was very developed. Even if an ordinary person traveled and made a plane, it was not difficult, but all this changed after the arrival of the 'Demon'..."
Dingman looked in the direction of the giant wolf and said quietly: "What accompanied the arrival of the 'demon' was their terrifying minions. Those alien beasts, although the biochemical weapons of these 'demons' could not leave the place where they were descending too far, their pollution spread to our world, causing ordinary beasts to transform into ferocious beasts, becoming bloodthirsty and irritable, and some even gained special abilities."
"The ground traffic is easy to solve. As long as we regularly wipe out ferocious beasts near cities and major transportation roads, and in combination with the "infrasound wave expulsion device" developed by the Institute, which has an expulsion effect on ferocious beasts, ground traffic can basically be maintained at the level before the disaster."
"But the sky route is very troublesome. Although the flying beasts are far fewer than the ground beasts, once the aircraft in the sky is encountered, it is destroyed. Even if the probability is very low, one percent, or one thousandth, once it encounters, it will be 100% dead. In this case, the sky route will naturally be closed all the time, and only specially developed fighter jets can take off."
After hearing this, Li Hao looked heavy. The peaceful land of living in the city has always been just an illusion. Has the world outside the city reached such a cruel point?!
There is no peace and quiet place? It turns out that there are people who are silently carrying the burden for them!
More than ten minutes later, the third car rushed up and continued to move forward.
The convoy spent most of the time on the road, but every eight to twelve hours, they would enter passing posts, observation stations, and small camps for a short rest.
On the way, I encountered various alienated beasts, and they were basically easily solved by the accompanying team.
The most dangerous time was when I encountered a giant golden-winged eagle with a wing of more than ten meters. Its flying speed was so fast that the air around it was twisted and accompanied by a harsh buzzing sound. When it hit the convoy, it really felt like a big golden-winged roc in myth.
But even such an opponent was easily solved under the siege of ten melee soldiers wearing "Soldier Type I" and five soldiers wearing "Soldier Type II" and equipped with super long-range firepower.
On the fifth day of the journey, the convoy could only camp in the wild due to the distance.
A team first inserted a 10-centimeter-wide and one-meter-long black metal pillar into the ground, and then took some metal disks the size of a palm to bury it layer by layer around the camp.
When Ding Man saw Li Hao and the others' curious eyes, he explained: "That is the 'infrasound wave expulsion device' I mentioned before, but this is a specially made portable enhanced version. It can release an infrasound wave that is harmless to humans and cannot be heard. This infrasound wave will arouse the disgust of ferocious beasts, thus keeping them away from the source of sound and expelling them."
Li Hao asked in confusion: "Since it is portable, why don't we move forward with the 'infrasound wave expulsion device' all the way? Wouldn't it save a lot of trouble?"
Ding Man smiled and said, "Because looking for research materials is one of the purposes of our trip!"
Li Hao nodded suddenly.
No words all night.
The next day, the team recovered all the buried "infrasound wave expulsion devices", and then the entire team continued to move forward.
When the time came on the seventh day, the group finally reached the destination, the Special Affairs Department Research Institute.
At this time, the group was waiting outside the research institute. The most conspicuous one was a group of researchers in white coats. At the center of the researchers, there was an old man with messy hair. The old man was thinking hard at the data in his portable computer, and did not notice the arrival of the convoy. It was not until someone reminded him that he suddenly came back to his senses.
When the old man saw the group coming out of the convoy, his eyes lit up and he immediately greeted him with joy.
Seeing the old man coming, Si Kang walked slightly and smiled: "Professor Bai, I..."
The old man named Professor Bai passed by Si Kang directly, and seemed to have not noticed the latter's greeting at all. The researchers following Professor Bai shrugged at Si Kang, which was not surprising.
Si Kang also smiled bitterly and patted his forehead with some headache. He felt strange. How could this maverick old man come to greet him?!
Professor Bai walked over to everyone and came directly to Lando, holding the latter's hand and said excitedly: "Mr. Lando, right! You are finally here. If it weren't for the above saying that you would invite you, I would have left this ghost place long ago. I'm so bored here that I don't even have someone to communicate with..."
When the researchers who caught up later heard this, a young man couldn't help but say in confusion: "Professor Bai, what do you mean? Didn't we communicate well before?"
Professor Bai turned his head and looked at the young man, and after a moment he said in confusion: "Who are you?"
The young man turned dark and muttered, "I am your assistant Shen Wendan. I have been taking care of you for a month!"
"oh."
Professor Bai responded without any real feeling, then turned his face and continued to communicate with Lando while pulling the latter towards the institute.
"Mr. Lando, I have read the paper "The World Convergence and Changes in Rules" published last year. I found it extremely exciting, but there are still some problems in it. We cannot just..."
Looking at Professor Bai and Lando who were gradually moving away, Shen Wendan's mouth twitched and he was speechless for a moment.
An older researcher behind him patted his shoulder and said earnestly: "Slowly you get used to it. Perhaps in Professor Bai's eyes, we are all monkeys!"
"monkey?!"
"Yes, monkey! Just like when you go to the zoo, do you remember which monkey is called 'Tom' and which monkey is called 'Jerry'?"
“…”
Seeing Lando being pulled away by Professor Bai, Si Kang shook his head helplessly. Fortunately, Lando was going to join the research department, but it was not up to him to take care of him. The task was over when he delivered the other party safely here.
Ding Man also explained a few words to Li Hao at this time, nodded slightly to Si Kang, and then took Ding Shi away.
Looking at the figures of the two leaving, Li Hao was a little silent.
Si Kang smiled and said: "There are many departments under the Special Affairs Department. Ding Man is originally different from the newly formed special team. Ding Shi's ability can be better played there, and the special team is the best place for you to use your own talents."
After explaining a little, Si Kang continued, "Let's go and take you to the training base of the special team first. There should be a lot of people coming over there."
As he said that, he walked towards the other side of the research institute first. Li Hao and Yao Yingxue looked at each other and immediately followed.
The three of them soon arrived at a training ground where there were many training equipment and facilities such as combat rings.
The members of the special team who were doing various trainings were shocked when they saw the three.
"That's... Captain Si Kangsi? Who are the two people behind him who were brought by him personally?"
"I don't know, I guess it's either a second generation with a strong background or a special person with special talents, right?"
"Oh, it's interesting to say that. I don't know what their abilities are. Should I find a chance to give it a try?"
"Let's talk about it in two days. After all, they are newcomers, so they can adapt to it."
To be continued...
