Chapter 157 The advent of silence (24): Dancing beside the meteorite (Part 1)
Zine Empire, Old Uko Province, near the Gobi Highway outside the camp in Area B of the Donusk Ruins.
"Huh...huh..., every time I come out of...the 'Grey Dream', I always...feel so exhausted after a while.
.... Fortunately, I don’t have to go in every day.”
Sitting in the narrow mechanical chariot, Laite gasped for air and applied a thick jelly-like substance mixed with a lot of dark red blood to forcefully support his exhausted body. It was never clean.
, stood up from the dusty main driver's seat and sat upright.
He leaned his hands on the solid wood steering wheel covered with black leather, letting brown sweat drip from the junction of his pure black hair and forehead, and fell on his tactical trousers, forming a wet stain.
After relaxing for a few seconds and taking a long breath, he placed his right hand on the "Crazy Bear" pistol.
"Just now, how could I be so impulsive? Those legionnaires were just laughing at the way I walked. It was indeed a bit bulky, my eyes were blurry, my mouth was half-open and drooling, and my body was indeed covered in blood, but I
I also greeted them with clear thinking. If you think I am a lost person based on this...it seems that is indeed the case..."
Laite reluctantly showed a bitter smile and continued to talk to himself:
"It's just that after being promoted to Level 6 Inspiration, not only the reaction ability, physical fitness, but also combat skills have been inexplicably improved... It cannot be quantified. It seems that it is not only these,
My temper has also improved, and I seem to be a little more impulsive.
If it weren't for the lack of food on the way from Donusk and the hard and boring journey that led to some... minor mental problems, then was it really the apostle of God who was behind the scenes? Or,
Is this the accessory that comes with accepting Sowkod's power promotion? The potential to become a blood-sucking monster? Or is the 'burning liquid' of an unintentional person already flowing in your body?"
Thinking of this, Laite panicked and took off the guard's jacket, which was a dull silvery white color, and reached out to touch his chest.
This is the location where I was shot and injured when I first woke up from this world!
"Huh, it's okay."
Laite breathed a sigh of relief.
The skin on the chest area is already firm, without the texture of steel.
And you can feel that there is an organ beating like a pump, and there is no feeling like a mechanical heart.
He breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back on the driver's seat, feeling completely relaxed.
"It seems that I, the [Order], will no longer have the identity of the Lost One. I am still a human being, a pure, real person. I am just a superpower. At best, I occasionally have a bad temper.
That's right."
"Those legionnaires laughed and insulted a little too loudly, and they didn't expect that I would hit them on the head immediately... It seemed that they were overconfident. I think they were probably walking through the Gobi.
The soldiers of the Zhinetsk Corps are probably the only ones who can really shamelessly humiliate and ridicule me, a member of the Sokra Guard, in the wasteland. They mock me like a slow and careless person,
Like a duck, and saying that I am only worthy of shining their shoes...they deserve to die."
Laite angrily recalled the "foul words" of several legionnaires just now, deliberately omitted many inappropriate parts, and cursed in a low voice.
However, in order to clear up my mind and stop feeling impulsive and inexplicable bloodthirsty from the depths of my soul, I "escaped" to the gray dream. I also went to find the "Machine Spirit" to communicate with me about the meeting.
Laite finally calmed down completely.
He instinctively arranged his messy hair, put on his shirt and tactical trousers, and then picked up the silver-white "Bear Bear" pistol. After loading the gun, he still placed it in the passenger seat.
superior.
He remembered that he had never operated a pure machine since he came to this world, and naturally he had never driven a mechanical chariot.
But after the regiment wiped out an entire squad and robbed their mechanical chariot and some strategic supplies, Laite was surprised to find that he had skillfully operated the chariot for at least two hours.
He is very familiar with it, as if these techniques are imprinted in his head.
If it weren't for the influence of extraordinary power and magic power, it would probably be the important memory of Laite's original body.
After all, Brett is a soldier who has fought for the empire for many years, and he can control machinery. It seems that the big guy Brett mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally in Socrates.
If half of his eyeballs hadn't been able to see only red vision, and if his heart hadn't suddenly become more and more thirsty for blood, he would have been able to drive the chariot into the camp in area B. At worst, he could have paid some new coins and found a
A decent military hotel room.
After calming down and carefully recalling the formula given to him by the "Emperor" in the gray dream and the information revealed about the "Determinator" diary, Laite made up his mind to enter the Silent Highlands and enter the center where the "Vita Water" is located.
area, enter the area where "The Girl of Tool Yuan" is located.
He knew that the people from the Socratic Committee, especially George, would definitely appear there. The order given to him by the telegram also included a part that cooperated with George's search for the "Daughter of the Mechanical Element". But if he wanted to find out the truth, the red in his body would
The power of the magic source, the identity of the [Orderer], the touch of the dark mystery, the truth about the Church of the Lost and the Socra Committee wooing him, and the most critical truth about his own time travel, he must enter there, see George, and see
Members of the Church of the Lost must meet the "Daughter of Tool Yuan".
Also, Brett and Miu were not seen along the way. If the masked soldiers who did not belong to the empire and threatened Brett before falling into the lake were real, they were not a dream or hallucination.
If so, I'm afraid I have to find a way to get in touch with the Socratic Committee.

"This world is too dangerous, I don't like it here!" Laite complained secretly, but his heart was extremely determined.
After driving a mechanical chariot for more than an hour along a straight path covered with ash scattered by burning plants and animals, as well as gradually rising dust, Laite finally left the city of Donusk completely.
On the part of the road where the ruins extend, we saw several mechanical chariots of the same style parked on the roadside.
After driving at high speed, I took a quick look. The soldiers leaning next to the mechanical chariot seemed to be in trouble. Their chariot seemed to be emitting black smoke. They did not hold any weapons, and they were still trying to intercept his.
Mechanical combat vehicle looking for help.
But a story he read in the "Chekavsk City Gazette" flashed across Laite's mind and he did not slow down, but rushed straight over.
Just a few years ago, the "Independence-Z Team" of the Chekavsk Corps encountered a group of soldiers whose vehicles were stranded in the swamp while performing tasks outside the Lost Swamp.
At that time, the commander of "Team Z" who was also a legionnaire, after careful consideration, got out of the car and provided help, and gave the few food to those soldiers at a low price.
But no one would have thought that apart from the two leaders who greeted them, who were pure humans who were mind-controlled, the others included two lost people, one with superpowers, and seven or eight others who were controlled by them.
A few careless people like puppets on strings.
The final result was naturally that the entire team was wiped out, and everyone except the captain became dinner for the lost and unintentional. The captain with good intentions was kidnapped, injected with "burning fluid" and waited.
Redemption of people in the city of Chekavsk.
What was published in the newspaper was that Kayingu, the consul of Chekavsk, did not pay a penny of new coins, but exchanged the captain for a member of the Church of the Lost.
But in fact, privately, he spent at least 1,500 Singapore dollars and more than 20 "Dark Night" series rifles to solve the problem.
However, since then, whether to enact relevant laws to refuse to help compatriots who encounter danger along the road has become a topic of debate in the city council for several years, and there is still no clear conclusion.
After driving for almost half an hour, Laite finally felt that the surrounding scenery began to undergo earth-shaking changes.
The dry weeds on both sides of the road turned into vibrant green grass growing freely.
The tall birch trees and the poplar trees that are said to be immortal for thousands of years have increasingly lost their traces, turning into swamps and some low shrubs.
There were a lot of water stains along the way, as if they had been splashed on, but it was more like a scene after the rain.
Lait remembered that Brett said that the northern part of Silent Highlands is not all yellow sand and Gobi. There are several places with rich water and grass, suitable for grazing and water collection. There are a lot of mud there, which is somewhat similar to the Lost Swamp. Vehicles can easily get stuck in it.
.
The campground in Area B is located near the foot of the mountain before entering the highland. There are many low hills in the Silent Highlands. The campground is established at the entrance of the highland. After several years of independent development, the campground has been extended to the south due to the opening of the mountain road.
Less, the size is equivalent to three Migov towns and a quarter of the city of Chekavsk.
After stopping the mechanical chariot, Laite took out the map "produced by the Chekavsk Dark Night Light Factory" that was "captured" from the legionnaires, as well as a military compass, and referenced the surrounding scenery.
After gesticulating with the hills in the distance for a while, we finally determined our current location.
"This place should be not far from the Area B camp. The map shows that you can see the entrance of the camp if you go a short distance along the main road. After climbing over the mountain in the distance, you should be the Silent Highlands, the Gods and the Lost.
It’s a bit exciting to think about the location of the three major churches.”
As Laite said, he put the map and compass back into the khaki backpack on the passenger seat and zipped it tightly, for fear that others would see the materials inside and the new coins he carried with him.
As for the "Emblem of Tomorrow", Laite simply held it in his left hand and hid it under his tactical glove.
"Look, this is the breath of nature. The depressing loess Gobi, the dangerous lost and unintentional people, and the painful underwater world no longer exist. My separation from the human community is actually just...
It's been more than a week, but it seems like seven or eight years have passed. Humans are indeed social animals." Laite crossed his hands and put them on the back of his head, looking ahead with emotion.
"Yes, brother Laite, I also like to go to real human towns." A young boy's voice came from the middle of the back seat behind Laite.
Laite did not show any panic, but responded very calmly:
"Feng, I remember that when you left your grandfather, [Dream Builder]'s 'Wuxin Village' before, you didn't dare to be interested in us. Why did you wait for me to come out of Donusk and kill those insulting gangs?"
You followed my legionnaire. Aren't you afraid that I would kill you on impulse? You know, the characteristic of the 'Crazy Bear' pistol is its power. It can penetrate a [Seducer]
There are strong tentacles."
Laite's tone was a little doting and apologetic. After all, letting a child see bloody and killing scenes would have a serious psychological impact on him. Even if he is a semi-lost person, his heart may not be extremely strong.
"Actually, I..." Fengdu muttered:
"I originally wanted to go to a human town alone to exchange for some food and daily necessities. You know, there is already a food shortage in the village. Even if legionnaires occasionally visit, it will not be easy for us to make one or two of them disappear and then turn them into food.
Moreover, water sources and living utensils are also problems. Nowadays, many creatures outside human cities are stronger than the Lost Ones, so hunting is not a good choice."
"Is your grandpa so relieved that you are coming here alone?" Laite said worriedly with a smile, and looked back at "Feng".
"He was used to being free and unrestrained. After he divined for you that day, he remembered a dream he had when he was in college. He wanted to try to decipher the reasons for the formation of the wasteland world, so he brought some life
After buying supplies and a small amount of money, he gave all his things to those 'friends'. He said he wanted to visit the Crusaders Federation. In fact, I was not close to him. He said that the lost people were like me at my age.
It’s time to live alone.”
"Whether I hunt humans to survive, sell my soul to serve humans, turn into beasts and monsters and wander in the wilderness, or even join the three major churches, in short I want to be independent. He believes that the life of the lost is too
It’s a long time. You must explore and visit this world in order to pursue the true meaning of life. So, just kicked me out.” Feng answered, looking a little disappointed and sad.
"So, you originally wanted to go to the town to exchange for daily necessities and food, but your grandfather insisted on driving you away, so you just took advantage of the situation and didn't have to go back, right?" Laite guessed.
"That's right." Feng nodded.
"Then you happened to see me killing when you were walking along the path of memory, but you still followed without hesitation?"
"Yes." Feng admitted.
"That's okay." Laite rolled his eyes and said thoughtfully:
"You should just put on the clothes of a legionnaire. I remember that there was a soldier I killed who was about the same size as you. If you meet a human, just say that you are from the Chekavsk legion and you have been separated from the army.
