"I remember I heard there before that you humans are actually just a semi-finished product. Originally, the ancients had already researched and created special enhancement devices. However, the deep divers had already come to the door, so there were only a few
Some humans have been strengthened in some way, and these humans have become heroes in their respective tribes, leading ordinary humans to move forward."
Zhutori looked at Liu Xing and others and said with a smile: "Of course, I have only heard of these contents from other places, so I cannot guarantee the authenticity, but I can confirm that in many ruins related to the ancients,
Various enhanced facilities have appeared, but the structures of these facilities are quite strange, and they seem to be designed for different creatures."
"It's a pity that today's ancient beings are just otakus and don't know how to go out for a walk, so it's not easy to ask them about this matter. As for those ancient beings who are active in human society, they are basically not researchers.
category, so they don’t know the truth about these things." Yin En said with a shrug.
Liu Xing shook his head, looked at Zhutori and asked: "By the way, Zhutori, can you enter the ancient ruins underneath now? Help us take a look at what's inside?"
Zhutori thought for a while, nodded and replied: "It should be possible. As long as there are no top-level defense measures in place at the ruins of this ancient civilization, I should be able to sneak into it to find out. But this will have to wait until the rain stops.
Because I don’t want to waste my spiritual energy trying to protect myself from the wind and rain.”
After dinner, the heavy rain still showed no sign of stopping, but this had no impact on Liu Xing and others in the tent. Everyone sat around and chatted happily, which reminded Liu Xing of his own campus.
Life.
"To be honest, I can really recall my memory of sheltering from the rain in that summer camp, because the situation now is not much different from that then, but I just don't know if there will be wild boars in this country."
Zhang Jingxu drank tea and said: "I still remember that we children and the wild boar outside, it can be said that both sides were afraid of each other. If the people who came to pick us up had not arrived in time, I think the teachers who accompanied the team at that time were prepared to take the
The bench rushed out, and as for the wild boars outside, they were frightened by our movements and ran around..."
Before Zhang Jingxu finished speaking, there was a burst of thunder outside the tent.
"Yes, this heavy rain has evolved into a thunderstorm." Yin En shook his head and said: "One thing to say, I am actually quite afraid of thunder, or this kind of sudden loud noise, but if I can see it in advance
If lightning strikes, no matter how loud the thunder is, it will never scare me again."
Liu Xing nodded sympathetically, "Yes, I am actually afraid of thunder. Especially when I stand in front of the window sill, I will suddenly think whether the thunder will directly come in and hit me. After all, I
I have seen a bolt of lightning strike the lightning rod on the opposite building with my own eyes before, and that scene is something I will never forget."
"So, does our tent have a lightning rod?" Ding Kun suddenly said: "Our place is also a plain without shelter, and there are no places to use electrical appliances or communication equipment except for us, so if there are thunderclouds
If it hangs on our heads, then it will most likely choose a few lucky viewers among us."
Hearing what Ding Kun said, the expressions of Liu Xing and others became solemn, because being struck by lightning is no joke, it really means someone will die if they disagree.
But at this moment, Norton stood up and used a loudspeaker to reassure people, "Please don't worry, students, we have installed lightning protection devices, so everyone can rest peacefully."
Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "At these times, we can still trust the technical reserves of Miskatonic University, because I have heard that Miskatonic University has a special invention society. In addition to inventing some things on its own,
In addition, I will also collect those weird inventions for backup, such as flashlights that can generate electricity by using body temperature, collapsible self-heating pots, etc."
"I have also heard about this matter. I even heard that Miskatonic University once purchased a batch of special equipment and tools from Huaxia Daomen, which were basically used to protect the expedition team. After all, the expedition team
The team members are already looking for death with their heads on their waists, so we must ensure that the members of the expedition team live as well as possible before then." Zhang Wenbing also said with a smile.
"By the way, we are now part of the expedition team."
Yin En's words made Zhang Wenbing's smile freeze.
But at this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the tent, which was just a "clattering" sound.
"What's happening here?"
Liu Xing, who was close to the tent door, stood up, opened a crack and looked outside. As a result, he saw a landslide on the opposite side of the pit, but the most important thing was that most of the giant machinery was exposed.
Because this giant machine is buried in the soil, we don’t know how high the part below the soil is, but the exposed part must be about five or six meters, and under the lightning, you can see that this giant machine is
A coat of silver paint was applied.
As for the role of this giant machine, judging from the exposed mechanical arm with claws, Liu Xing doubted that it was a melee mecha. However, because it was dark now and it was pouring with rain, Liu Xing doubted that it was a melee mecha.
Star can't see any more information.
However, Liu Xing doubted that this giant machine participated in the siege that year, otherwise it would not have appeared here.
"What's going on here?"
Yin En asked from behind Liu Xing: "Listen to this sound, could it be that the Dakeng landslide has occurred? After all, the soil here is too loose, and a heavy rain can easily collapse the fragile mountain structure."
Liu Xing turned around, nodded and said: "Yes, there was a landslide on the opposite side of the pit, but that's not the point. The point is that the landslide leaked out a giant robot buried deep underground.
, of course, it is also possible that this is an engineering vehicle with a robotic arm? In short, this thing should be related to the ancient civilization under our feet."
Hearing what Liu Xing said, the curious Yin En came over and looked outside, "Here, this thing looks a bit handsome, but I don't think it is a robot, but a special tank? But
It seems that it cannot be made by the Kingdom of Earthsea."
At this time, other people who heard the sound also saw the giant machine, so even if the rain was loud, Liu Xing could hear the exclamations one after another. After all, such a giant machine is very important to humans who follow the technological path.
, can be said to be an alternative kind of "romance", and also an aesthetics derived from technology.
As for Norton and others, they couldn't wait to put on their raincoats and prepare to go over to admire the giant machine up close. However, they were stopped by Elizabeth in the end. Because there are always two landslides like this, so the number of people near the giant machine was very high.
An accident may still happen on the mountain at any time, and it will be troublesome to bury Norton and others.
However, not long after it passed, the thunderstorm suddenly stopped, just as it came suddenly.
Unfortunately, it was already ten o'clock in the middle of the night, so after research, Norton and others decided to wait until the next day to study this giant machine. However, in order to avoid the tribal alliance that likes to cause trouble to use the topic, Norton still organized manpower to trap the giant machine.
The reason for putting a "hat" on it was to prevent heavy rain from affecting the excavation progress.
So on the second day, Liu Xing and others all got up early, or most people in the entire camp got up early, because everyone wanted to see the true face of the giant machine in Lushan.
So before they had time to eat, Liu Xing and others walked down the pit one after another, walking on the muddy ground to the front of the giant machine.
At this time, the giant machine has revealed its true face. It seems to be a crawler-type combat robot, because it has four mechanical arms, two of which are used for close combat. The main weapons are a hammer and a
Claws, and the weapons of the other two robotic arms should be machine guns and rockets, but the magazines seem to be empty.
Of course, what surprised Liu Xing and others the most was that this combat robot was designed with a proportionally proportioned head, but the head looked a bit like some kind of insect.
"Normally speaking, the head style of a robot with a head like this should be similar to the race that made them, so the owner of this combat robot is a kind of insect?" Zhang Jingxu said curiously
.
"It should be a bug man, right? A cockroach man like the Martian alien species?" Yin En touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "But then again, this combat robot doesn't have any scars on the outside, so it
You probably weren’t left here because of the fighting, right?”
"That's not necessarily true. The attack methods of these ancient civilizations are beyond our imagination, and no one can do it. Therefore, there are indeed no traces of damage from the outside, but maybe there are already signs of damage inside this combat robot.
Was it seriously damaged, or has the crew been eliminated?"
Liu Xing shook his head and said: "But this combat robot has been preserved very well. It is exactly the same as the new one. It seems to be of great scientific research value."
While Liu Xing and others were discussing the combat robot, Norton had already jumped on the tracks himself, holding a special detector and starting to search for the cockpit of the combat robot.
Soon, Norton found the entrance to the cockpit, but to be on the safe side, Norton still had someone control the robot to open the cockpit.
As a result, as soon as the cockpit was opened, a "person" wearing something similar to a space suit fell out. It seemed that at the last moment of his life, he planned to open the cockpit and leave, but it was a pity that he was a step too late.
After unbuttoning its "space suit", Liu Xing and others saw a bug-man similar to a mantis, except that it did not have sickle-like claws. Instead, it had a pair of only four fingers, and each
The fingers are all the same length.
"Dakworm."
Norton suddenly said: "This should be the legendary Dak Zerg that represents the strongest evolutionary state of the Zerg on Earth. They were active tens of millions of years ago and once became the overlord of the American plate, because they not only have extremely strong melee capabilities
, and also have good learning abilities, allowing them to absorb the strengths of other surrounding civilizations, but the most important thing is that the Dakworms have hundreds of different states, which allows them to adapt to most illusions on the earth.
, so if those foreign mythical creatures weren't so powerful, maybe the people who rule the earth today would be the Darkworms."
Listening to this unfamiliar name, Liu Xing and others knew that this was another mythical creature created by the Cthulhu Game Hall for this parallel world. However, judging from the setting, this Dakworm looks very powerful. If
It's not that they don't have the support of the ancient gods or the old rulers behind them, maybe the Dakworm people really have a chance to occupy the earth.
It's a pity that this Dak bug man has become the tears of the times.
"As one of the very few ancient civilizations that can leave behind a variety of historical materials, we have a set of research notes on the Dakids in the library of Miskatonic University, which contains:
The brief history of the Dak bug people, as well as some customs and habits, as well as the common writing of the Dak bug people, so we can confirm that the ancient civilization opposite belongs to the Dak bug people, and it seems that the Dak bug people are preparing to attack
This ancient civilization launched an attack, but this ancient civilization gave the Dak bugs a disastrous attack and directly scrapped the combat robot and its crew."
At this time, a student controlled the drone and entered the cockpit. He found that the space in the cockpit was very large, more than thirty square meters. There were five operator seats alone, and of course there were four more in the cockpit.
The fallen Dak bug man.
As a demon doll, Elizabeth is the best forensic doctor at this time, because she does not need to worry about what is wrong with this Dak bug. Of course, Liu Xing and others still took a few steps back for safety reasons.
Not long after, Elizabeth shook her head and said: "No problem, this Dakworm does not carry anything that may pose a threat to us, but the cause of its death is very special, that is, the blood in its body solidified instantly.
A kind of gel, or to put it more directly, it is jelly, so these dakworms suddenly lose their ability to move, and then they die."
"Is there still such an operation?"
Even Norton, who is well-informed, has never encountered a similar situation before, "It seems that we will have to be careful about such a move when entering the ruins of this ancient civilization in the future. But that being said, if we really
