Chapter 41 The Dusty Land(1/2)
The target disappeared.
At this moment, with a burst of wind and snow for no reason, the two people, one large and one small, disappeared without a trace.
Under the cover of wind and snow, few people noticed the path the two left, and even if they did, they couldn't stop them.
From a certain perspective, this is a dimensional bullying.
Outside the sand table, Lin Tuo did not raise his hand. After breaking away from the encirclement, he found a random position and put down his clone and Hua Xi.
Then switch consciousness and return to the inside.
…
…
"It's safe." When Huaxi heard Lin Tuo's voice again, she let go of her hand, opened her eyes, and was surprised to find that she had arrived in an unfamiliar area.
From her perspective, she could only feel the howling wind in her ears, and then her feet seemed to step on a strange "soil", and her body seemed to rise briefly and then fall.
Well, it was as if it was pulled by some force and moved.
This is truly an experience I have never had before.
"You..." Hua Xi blinked and looked at Lin Tuo, wanting to ask something, but in the end he closed his mouth, but the doubts and curiosity in his eyes deepened.
Lin Tuo also had no intention of explaining, and just said: "Okay, let's continue."
…
The western mountain range is not big, so a few hours later, Lin Tuo's trace was captured again. Combined with the previous "disappearance", some people speculated that maybe this was also a kind of supernatural power.
Well, an ability that can teleport within a certain distance.
"Do you really have this ability?" Many people have similar doubts.
After all, although a certain proportion of evolvers will derive extraordinary abilities, most of them are related to the body and are more like the evolution of certain organ functions.
For example, some people have a strong sense of smell, some people have excellent eyesight, some people can sense climate changes...it is really rare to be able to transmit abilities of this nature.
But these doubts don't seem to be important.
The hunters in the floating doomsday only know that the siege of the three major forces has completely failed, and the rating of the mysterious powerhouse has been adjusted to an unprecedented SS level.
This failure did not make the local forces in the wasteland give up, but instead made them more determined to kill Lin Tuo.
However, what made them extremely confused was that the mysterious man seemed to have some kind of precognitive ability, and every time, he avoided their encirclement almost perfectly in advance.
Either leave early, or turn on "teleportation". After several attempts, not only did there not be any gains, but it actually delayed the progress of the three companies' exploration.
As a result, we have to focus more energy on advancing deeper into Daxi Continent.
They also discovered with some mixed feelings that because Lin Tuo's sweeping actions had eliminated a large number of powerful mutant beasts, their exploration progress had actually been accelerated many times.
This has to be said to be a somewhat ironic thing.
…
In such a strange atmosphere, another day passed.
Lin Tuo continued to temper his body and eat at his own pace. When he killed a snow bear again and climbed a mountain peak, he discovered that there were no more enemies in front of him.
Under the dark sky, it is snowing lightly.
In front of the field of vision, there is a messy valley, and further ahead, there is only the last mountain peak.
The background is the endless, dark sea.
That is the endless sea.
There, that is, the end of this continent.
"We actually came to the edge of the continent..." Huaxi, wrapped in thick cotton clothes and carrying a rifle, looked at the sea with some shock. This was the first time she saw the ocean.
"If my guess is correct, that mountain should be a laboratory."
Lin Tuo looked ahead with a scope and found that there were obvious traces of human creations on the top of the mountain, at its feet, and on its waist, especially the top, which was obviously a scrapped large antenna.
"That should be the case. According to legend, the Mad Emperor initiated the catastrophe in the last mountain on the shores of the Endless Sea." Hua Xi said with a complicated expression.
After a brief silence, Lin Tuo exhaled, feeling the accumulated exhaustion from the continuous fighting and tempering in his body, and said:
"Come on, let's go over and take a look."
…
Through "teleportation", it only took the two of them more than ten seconds to arrive outside the "Daxizhou Laboratory".
The entrance to this laboratory is halfway up the mountain and is a half-sealed gate.
When Lin Tuo took Hua Xi, two figures, one big and one small, stood alone outside the magnificent gate, and they fell silent.
The door of the laboratory is extremely simple, with no signboard decorations and only a white jade statue placed here.
Probably because it was affected by the explosion that year.
The statue was cut off at the waist, and its upper body fell into the snow nest, still holding the pointer tightly.
This is a statue of "Lin Sheng", except that the facial position of the statue has been deliberately polished and the facial features have been eliminated.
In the past few days, through Hua Xi's narration, Lin Tuo already knew that after he left that year, the king of Chi made a statue of him and passed it down for a hundred years.
Until later, in the last few years of his life, the mad emperor of the new dynasty used strong methods to forcibly destroy all the statues in the country and forbade anyone to commemorate the saint.
But I didn't expect that there is still one here.
"Does he want me to witness this experiment with my own eyes?"
Lin Tuo stared at his statue and had such a guess in his mind.
Shaking his head, he raised his hand to completely smash the statue. Lin Tuo stepped forward and forcefully opened the metal door. It was already on the verge of collapse. With a little force, a gap was opened.
"Go in and take a look." Lin Tuo said, and immediately walked in first.
After passing through a corridor, a huge and spacious experimental hall suddenly opened up.
Thirty years later, this place still maintains its old appearance, except that every instrument and circuit is damaged and looks rusty.
There are signs of collapse in some areas.
Hua Xi followed cautiously, looking around, when she suddenly stepped on something, which made her scream in fright.
"It should be the researcher who died that year."
Lin Tuo looked at the withered bones on the ground and said with a low expression.
These dead human bones are scattered in the hall.
Judging from the traces, it seems that a riot broke out here.
It was difficult for Lin Tuo to guess the details of what happened here back then, but judging from the dead postures of those dead bones, it was obvious that they were in great pain.
"They should be the first humans to be affected by radiation."
Lin Tuo sighed in his heart. For some reason, facing these sinners who destroyed the entire civilization, he could not feel much anger. He just felt heavy in his heart and had a silent expression.
After taking a few more steps forward, Lin Tuo's eyes finally landed on a pair of special skeletons on the ground.
He was wearing a bright yellow coat that was unique to the royal family. Due to the environment in the heart of the mountain, it still retained the original color.
This set of human bones looks like it belongs to an old man. He is sitting by the wall. The top of his head is broken, and he can see the "window" of the sea. At this moment, he can even hear the quiet waves.
In his withered hands, he was holding a dark green metal box with several rotten cables connected to the bottom.
It has the words "Detonator" written on it.
Obviously, this was the dead mad emperor who single-handedly ended hundreds of years of rule in the Chi Kingdom and established the first and only emperor of the new dynasty.
"Click."
When Lin Tuo approached, probably due to the shaking of the ground, the mad emperor's skeleton suddenly shook and shattered. He could no longer support his sitting position, and the box in his hand also fell to the ground.
A dark green, simple and square seal rolled out of the skeleton onto the ground.
Lin Tuo cast his gaze over and his eyes moved.
Judging from the writing on it, this is clearly the so-called extraordinary item that can influence the minds of others: the Secret Seal.
This thing is indeed here.
However, numerous cracks appeared on its surface, the corners were broken, and it looked slightly dull. It seemed that it had been irreversibly damaged in the events of that year.
Lin Tuo thought for a moment and reached out to pick it up.
However, at this moment, when he came into contact with this strange seal, the virtual panel of the Evolution Sandbox automatically popped up in his retina.
A line of words that had never been seen before appeared on it:
[Special items have been detected, should they be analyzed? 】
Lin Tuo was startled and became more and more curious. Does the Evolution Sandbox actually have such a function?
"Analysis." An idea came to mind.
A fleeting progress bar immediately appeared on the virtual panel.
To be continued...
