Yueyang is a famous cultural city. Shen Cong learned Fan Zhongyan's "Yueyang Tower" when he was a student. He worries about the world's worries first, and rejoices after the world's happiness.
Surrounded by Dongting Lake and close to the Yangtze River.
The location is very good.
At this time, Yueyang has not turned into a swamp like Wuhan. The river is still rushing here. There are not many tall trees, only some scattered trees dotted on the endless grassland.
"It's a strange grass. Its leaves have turned into metal and can't be blown by the wind. It looks like aloe vera, but if you look closely, it's probably a variant of an orchid."
The leaves of aloe vera are fat and thick, but the grass on the grassland has long leaves, and the original shape of an orchid can be vaguely seen.
The entire Yueyang City is basically occupied by this orchid variant.
Pieces into pieces.
Talents range from 0.5h to 1.5h. In some places, the height of the orchid variant can reach three to four meters, while in other places it is only one or two meters.
Occasionally, there will be evolved beasts wandering among the orchids.
After seeing the Four-Armed King Kong, the timid ones would either run away, while the bold ones would just stare at it. The Four-Armed King Kong crushed it, and the Sky Eye radar scanned the area for more than ten kilometers, looking for possible traces of human survivors. Feel the activity distribution in the surrounding area.
"The activity concentration here is good. It is much higher than that in the barren zone. It is probably a rich zone. I came from the north. The north is a barren zone and this is a rich zone. So the oasis should be further south. Further south is Changsha. City, could it be that the oasis is in Changsha?”
Immediately.
The Four-Armed King Kong accelerated and headed south.
After crossing Yueyang County and entering Xiangyin County, the activity concentration increased further. Shen Cong could basically conclude that the Changsha area was an oasis, and it was a large oasis.
Moreover, Shen Cong discovered traces of human activities in Xiangyin County.
…
At the water's edge is a simple ferry made of wood and copper. It can be seen that this pier is not used for crossing the river, but for hunting fish in the water.
"Looking at the traces, it's still very fresh. There should be humans coming here to hunt during this time."
Find the traces and keep searching.
He drove the Sky Eye radar and continued to explore south. It didn't take long for Shen Cong to enter the location of Changsha. In the Wangcheng District under his jurisdiction, he saw humans in action.
There is a tank with a rather unique shape, similar to a mining truck.
In the bed of the mining truck, there was a pile of black stones dug out of the ground. The human survivors rummaged through the surrounding ground for such black stones.
"Three evolvers and five ordinary people. The evolutionaries' talents are pretty good, about 1.5 hours. After all, they are golden people. There is also an evolver in the mine truck. He is an iron man, and his talents are about 2.6 hours."
Observing for a moment with the Sky Eye radar in the distance, the mining truck was soon filled with a load of black stones, then turned around and drove away towards Changsha city.
Only then did Shen Cong drive the Four-Armed King Kong to the place where the human survivors were digging for ore.
Get off the car, find a black stone, and observe it.
"Um?"
Shen Cong was immediately surprised.
Because he sensed slight activity fluctuations from this black stone: "This black stone is actually active? Is it something similar to a natural vehicle? No... It's a little strange. These activities seem to be Absorbed into the black stone."
Through perception, Shen Cong could feel that the black stone had a very weak ability to absorb the free activity in the air.
This is a spontaneous acquisition.
"It can absorb the activity, but the stone is really dead and has no 'living' properties at all." Shen Cong thought and began to try to see if he could absorb the activity.
Very easy.
Activity is like water in a bottle, you can drink it whenever you want.
"What about injection?"
Shen Cong started a new attempt. He injected the activity in his body into the black stone. Sure enough, he could inject it into it, but the speed was not very fast. Mainly because a large amount of activity escaped during the injection process, so he could only Maintaining a relatively low speed can ensure that the activity is absorbed by the black stone.
Keep injecting.
Ten minutes later, the black stone became darker and darker, became thick enough to shine, and was finally filled with activity.
After a little calculation, Shen Cong came to a conclusion: "The amount of black stone stored is roughly equivalent to me using the Locust and Mushroom Insect Sword for ten seconds."
The Locust and Mushroom Sword is a big eater of activity. It consumes more activity in ten seconds than the entire inventory of activity in the body of an Ultimate Ironman.
Waving.
Sometimes Shen Cong also feels that it is too much and cannot fight with the Locust and Mushroom Sword for a long time.
Fortunately, I have never encountered a battle that took more than ten minutes to resolve.
But I have to be careful in case I encounter it in the future.
"Black stones can store activity..." His eyes flickered, Shen Cong thought of a possibility, "If a large amount of activity is stored in black stones, can it be absorbed quickly at any time? No, my absorption speed does not depend on the outside world. The amount of activity depends on the speed of my absorption."
It cannot be solved in terms of absorption, but it does not mean that it cannot be used.
"What if the Locust and Mushroom Sword can directly absorb the activity in the black stones? Does that mean that as long as a sufficient number of black stones are accumulated and filled with activity, the use of the Locust and Mushroom Sword can be extended? time?"
He has been a good man for ten minutes.
But if you spend more than ten minutes, you are a real man.
Of course, Shen Cong wants to be a real man. I hope that the Locust and Mushroom Sword can have a long standby time and be strong for a longer time.
After gathering his thoughts, Shen Cong began to carefully study the material of the black stone. He could roughly sense it through active waves. It was a strange metal ore, not a pure metal. There seemed to be trace amounts of fire particles in it.
Rocks, alloys, tinder particles.
A special material composed of three substances mixed together.
"The survivors here are mining black stones, which means that they have discovered the secrets of black stones. They may have developed them and know how to use black stones... I will go to investigate the situation of human survivors here first. Make further plans."
The Four-Armed King Kong was activated, and Shen Cong began to explore this new oasis in the dark.
After investigation.
The center of the oasis should be Tiaoma Town, south of Changsha City, covering the entire Changsha city and half of Zhuzhou City. The human survivors, numbering about 200,000, mainly live in the area next to Tiaoma Town. In the direction of Muyun Town, there are many evolved beasts living together with humans.
In the Tiaoma Town in the center of the oasis, there lives a powerful evolutionary beast, protecting the safety of the entire settlement.
Shen Cong has not yet started communicating with the humans here, but he overheard a group of conversations in which he mentioned that this evolved beast was a dog named Brother Dao.
"Brother Dao has lost miserably this month. He already owes 30,000 square meters of black stone and has lost all his offerings."
"With Brother Dao's gambling skills, even a million cubic meters of black stone won't be enough for us humans to lose. I think he's going to sell all his fat meat to pay off the debt. Hehe, this Yue You had dog meat hot pot.”
…
"Brother Dao? Dog?"
Shen Cong felt like he had heard this name before, but couldn't remember where he had heard it. (To be continued.)
