The threat of nature is different from the hateful monsters. It can neither be seen nor touched. Only when you completely step into that area will you be surprised to find that compared with the angry nature, zombies are nothing.
And the gnawers are actually not the scariest.
You can run away if you can't beat the zombies, and you can't die if you can't beat the gnawers. But when a natural disaster really appears in front of you, you will realize how insignificant you are, and you will find that there is no other way except to run for your life in a panic.
There is no courage to compete with the opponent!
Lin Cheng, who had experienced a cold wave, had a particularly deep understanding of this. As an ice control user, when the cold wave came, he just accidentally touched the metal handrail, and a piece of flesh was torn off.
Not to mention those ordinary people who are ten miles inferior to him or have no ability at all. Under the full invasion of the cold wave, humans do not even have a chance to escape. They will be frozen into a crystal clear ice sculpture in an instant, living forever with nature.
together.
And after he entered the territory of Eros, the awe that he suppressed in his heart couldn't help but rise again. The endless ice and snow wasteland, the empty cities abandoned by the apocalypse and the severe cold, everything in front of him told.
Lin City, this is a land that is almost impossible for him to conquer. Even the probability that he wants to complete his goal alive and leave here is less than 50%!
In this case, although Lin Cheng didn't tell Bai Ling anything, and he didn't even show any negative emotions from beginning to end, he knew very well that every move they made on the road was related to whether they could arrive alive.
In the Yamal Peninsula, what worries him most is not the amazingly powerful snow monsters, but the capricious but extremely harsh natural climate here.
"call……"
Unknowingly, Lin Cheng had been soaking in the bathtub for nearly two hours. He felt that the bath water was a little cold, so he could only get out of the bathtub, breathed a sigh of relief, put on his pajamas and walked out of the bathroom.
Bai Ling had already fallen asleep at this time, while Coke was lying in the doghouse next to the door of the capsule house, grunting as if he was brewing sleepiness.
Without disturbing it, Lin Cheng went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of beer, then walked to the window and looked at the snow falling again outside, his eyes gradually becoming empty...
…
The next morning.
Because he slept too late last night, Lin Cheng didn't wake up until Bai Ling knocked on his door.
"Um...what time is it?"
He walked over and opened the door. Looking at Bai Ling who was fully dressed and ready to go, Lin Cheng scratched his messy hair and asked her.
Seeing Lin Cheng's appearance of not waking up from sleep, Bai Ling, who was originally angry, suddenly became less angry for some reason. He rolled his beautiful eyes and said in a somewhat unkind tone: "What do you think? I say Young Master Lin, let's
Our progress on the road has already been slowed down a lot, but why don’t you seem to take this seriously at all?”
"Ahem... I was thinking about something last night, and I suddenly thought of four or five o'clock."
Listening to Bai Ling's teasing, Lin Cheng gradually became more awake. After scratching his head in embarrassment, he didn't dare to waste any more time and hurried to the bathroom to wash up.
After washing up, Lin Cheng returned to the living room. Looking at the slightly steaming food on the table, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "You haven't eaten yet?"
"I've already eaten. I just reheated this for you while you were washing up. Eat it quickly."
Shaking her head, Bai Ling sat on a chair nearby and replied without raising her head. Then she continued to flip through the Eros book that she had read countless times, not knowing what was interesting in it.
Shrugging, not paying attention to Bai Ling's attitude, Lin Cheng rubbed his hands, picked up chopsticks and started to devour the food.
In fact, his eating habits were quite polite in the past. Although his life had always been quite hard, he always remembered what Aunt Qin had warned him, saying that young people must sit, sit, stand, stand, eat, and eat.
In this regard, although his personality is withdrawn and it is not easy to make friends with other people, no one particularly dislikes him.
But this habit has been completely abandoned by him since he entered the apocalypse. After becoming an esper, his requirements for food portions have become larger and larger, but his mouth has not grown bigger with it, so that it always takes a long time for him to start eating.
It takes time to finish eating, and even he himself feels it is a waste of time.
Over time, in order to save time, Lin Cheng's eating speed became faster and faster. Until now, although he can eat twice as much as an ordinary person, the time it takes is almost the same as others, or even shorter.
, and the price paid is that this guy is no longer as gentle as before...
The food on the table was swept away like a wind and a cloud. Lin Cheng touched his round belly and burped. He was about to light a cigarette and rest for a while. When he looked up, he saw that Bai Ling had closed the book at some point. At this moment,
Er was looking at himself with his arms folded and a half-smile on his face.
"Although I haven't been active in the human world for too long, I can definitely tell that your eating appearance is not very good-looking."
Seeing Lin Cheng's confused face, Bai Ling smiled lightly and shook his head, then continued with a teasing look on his face: "There are only two of us in this room. How can you eat so fast? Do you think you are still worried about Coke?
Will they come and steal your food?"
"Ahem...it's a long story. I'll explain it to you when I have time."
After coughing awkwardly, Lin Cheng didn't want to talk too much with the other party on this topic, so he pushed the empty bowl in front of him and stood up and said: "Well... you go and prepare, we are ready to go!"
After saying that, without waiting for Bai Ling to reply, Lin Cheng opened the door and walked out as fast as if there was a ghost chasing him behind him.
"whispering sound……"
Seeing Lin Cheng's fleeing figure, Bai Ling couldn't help but shake his head with disdain, turned around and went back to the house to clean up.
A few minutes later, when Bai Ling and Coke left the capsule house, Lin Cheng put the capsule house away and threw it into the storage capsule. Then he transformed the snowmobile into a SUV, took them with him, and continued on his way.
On the road again, Lin Cheng, who had slept all morning, now seemed to be in high spirits. Even the worries from last night had faded a lot. His personality was like this. He would put aside things that couldn't be solved and would never get into trouble.
Make it difficult for yourself.
However, because snowflakes were falling in the sky again, their speed today was even slower than yesterday. The climate in Eros is like this. You never know when it will snow, and you never know when it will suddenly clear up again.
Although Lin Cheng felt a little unhappy, snowing was out of his control. All he could do was try to drive as much as possible during the day. (To be continued)
