Chapter 893 The Disappeared Town

The hurricane has weakened, but has not completely disappeared. Among the jagged steel wreckage, the fierce airflow is still blowing a sharp whistle. The strong wind blowing from all directions is as painful as a whip on the face. In the darkness , a small team of more than 20 people was moving forward with difficulty.

"It's really too early to come out now. Will the wind suddenly pick up again?"

The speaker was a short man. Like most of the people in the team, he wrapped his whole body in a thick cotton coat to resist the unbearable cold air around him. This outfit certainly made it difficult to stand in the strong wind. There is even the risk of being blown away while walking, but compared to being frozen into popsicles by the cold wind carrying ice crystals, the effort of walking is a price that is well accepted.

Moreover, everyone in the team was already prepared before departure. The corners of the cotton-padded clothes were tied tightly to the body by others to prevent sudden strong winds or being caught by steel debris on the roadside. In case of danger, in the absence of professional protective clothing and special transportation, this outfit that is somewhat like a mountain cannon can be regarded as the wisdom of the people at the bottom.

"Waiting for the wind to stop? It will take several days for the wind to stop completely. By then everyone will freeze to death and starve to death under the cliff." Walking at the front of the team was a tall and sturdy figure, also wrapped in a thick Under the cotton-padded coat, looking at this guy and listening to this loud voice, there is no doubt that this is the prestigious Action Patrick of Condenser Town. "Didn't you hear what the scientist said? The next twenty-four hours will be the most stable time." , if support from the big city or other places really comes, we can only take advantage of these 24 hours to go out and ask for help...ah, bah, bah, this damn dirty ice, I drank it!"

Tieke accidentally swallowed a large mouthful of loose ice crystals frozen by dirty water, and immediately cursed loudly, and then continued: "If there is rescue, they will first go to the town to find survivors, and we have to wait there. At least twenty hours!”

"Will the rescuers really come?"

Another person in the team asked loudly, and the strong wind blowing in the face made people have to use their loudest voices to transmit their words.

"Don't ask me, ask those tough guys at the back. They are from the big city. They said they have a rescue team!"

Tieke said loudly, turning to look in our direction, "I said, you are so strong! As soon as I saw you walking outside in those clothes, I thought you were all dead. I heard that the people from Dacheng came high High-level monks have used ancient machines to strengthen their bodies. It seems to be true, but I didn't expect that such a young child could also...ah, bah! This damn dirty ice!"

As soon as Tieke finished speaking, his face was hit by ice particles again. However, he didn't realize that he was facing the wind when he was hit. The dirty thing turned a corner at an angle that was completely contrary to common sense. On his face.

Sister said quietly: "Before Pandora decides to kill him, I have to let this big mouth quiet for a while."

I chuckled and turned to look around at the people around me.

Just like the consistent style of the first family, we will follow whenever there is excitement or even a little thing to interfere with, so a large group of people came out with Tieke this time. Obviously, no matter what Wherever we go, our group of guys who are just like outings will always be a bunch of weirdos in the tense atmosphere around us. Even if my sister and I try to pretend to be a doomsday survival attitude, we can't stop Bingtis's noise and Viska all the way. Digging holes all the way...

After receiving the news from Sandora that the city had sent manpower from the nearest church to search for survivors, Barnard decided to send a group of people back to the town to wait for the search and rescue team, while Tieke led the youngest force in the town. A group of strong people formed this death squad - really a death squad. Although the wind has weakened enough to allow travel, the road from the cliff to the town is not so easy, and the most important thing is the metal debris that can be seen everywhere. The only thing is the fatal edges and corners. These edges and corners are usually harmless, but in the current environment where you can't see your fingers and there is a violent storm and snow all around, it may be dangerous at any time.

The Condenser Town death squads led by Tieke were fully armed. Not only were they wrapped in thick cotton coats to protect them from the cold, but they were also wearing blouses woven with metal wires that they would only wear when working deep in the metal station, in case they were blown down by strong winds. Or when you slip on the ice, you can prevent the surrounding metal spikes from causing huge damage to yourself.

In this comparison, the rest of us shine... I'm only wearing single clothes and single pants, and I don't dare to change my top because Dingdang thinks the pockets of this dress are better. My sister and Miss Lin both have elegant long hair. The skirts look like princesses, but they don’t match the howling cold wind around them. Qianqian and Saeko even wear short skirts. A few small ones are various princess skirts from Yishui. Mercury Lamp is the only one who seems to be wearing warm clothes, because her favorite black dress has a lot of lace on it...

Bingtis is still wearing the gorgeous black evening dress that looks like a waste of money on her body. Monina is wearing a black outfit and looks like she is ready to go to the top of the Forbidden City to fight with someone. Lin is the coolest among us, Wu Wearing a short sleeved waistcoat, a short skirt, and sandals, the rough skin and thick flesh of a dragon's body made her have no idea of ​​adapting to the environment. It would not be inappropriate to throw this outfit intact on a Hawaiian beach. There are also two men, one is Uncle Kenser and the other is Ilson. The former is wearing the same robe as an Arab in the strong wind of level 7 or 8, and he wishes his whole body and his beard were flying around. The latter is wearing a robe all over his body coquettishly. The golden light was heavily armored, and a layer of ice had already formed on it. In fact, I'm embarrassed to mention them, especially the tin-can-like Ilson. He has always been wearing that outfit since he came to town, because of his stylish silly dress and the temperament cultivated by tens of millions of years of caring for his sister. With the aura of a big brother, he was almost named the most popular children's friend in Condenser Town this year - everyone thought he was a people's artist.

Better than Kenser, behind the melancholy uncle are a group of even more melancholy aunts...

With these guys who have such distinctive personalities wherever they go, my sister and I couldn't keep a low profile even if we wanted to. Tieke, who was wrapped in thick cotton clothes and walked with difficulty in the strong wind, looked at us with eyes that were simply... Look at Superman - Fortunately, there really are supermen in this world. It is said that those "church members" who have the most ancient machines have the technology to strengthen their bodies. Although this kind of physical enhancement should be different from ours, Tieke's own brain Supplementing our capabilities has saved us a lot of trouble.

"As expected of someone from the big city," Tieke pressed the hood on his head with one hand and grabbed a huge, powerful spotlight with the other. He took the time to turn his head and glance at us enviously, "I appreciate those magical things of yours." Never seen that in my life.”

All I can say about this is hehe.

The irregular strong winds severely slowed down the progress of the team. A distance of one kilometer is so far away for ordinary people. As the wind weakened, there were no deadly metal fragments in the air, replaced by dirty ice crystals and freezing rain. Ice began to form on people's hair and eyebrows, and their breathing became heavier and heavier. Even Tieke gradually stopped talking and saved his energy to continue on his way. The road is very difficult to walk, not only because of the strong wind, but also because the steel wreckage is covered with a thick layer of ice. The wind tunnel effect caused by the falling cold air mass not only brings storms, but also the world's The first snowstorm.

The third time I took away the skates from Qianqian's hand, this girl started to lose control of her mind again.

"You see, I said that they deserve high marks."

Bingtis suddenly touched my arm lightly.

I thought about it and still felt a little weird: "Why do I feel so guilty when we just watch them suffer without doing anything?"

"This is not about watching indifferently," Bingtis's blood-red eyes flickered, "Gods rarely look at mortals indifferently. Even if we don't take action, we will move forward with them, just like now - don't you Did you find that God was walking with them on this difficult journey? This situation has appeared in many religious works."

I was suddenly startled.

Bingtis looked at me quietly and whispered: "The white-robed Gerda prophet led his people to trek on the ice field, his feet were bleeding. The pagan asked him: Look, your feet are bleeding. , Where is your Lord?, the prophet said: The Lord is behind me, walking the same path as me.', this passage is from the "Mohengsha Classic", which is the Bible of another world, and is in other There are similar accounts in myths and stories, Chen, why do you think many classics describing ancient prophets focus on the story of 'gods moving forward with the tested believers'?"

I opened my mouth and looked at the mortals wearing heavy clothes who were struggling to move forward in the heavy snow and the protoss who were following silently not far behind them. Finally, I twitched my lips and said, "Don't tell me this is a myth. The most classic scene in... came about like this?”

"That's it if you experience it personally. All the miracles and praises were added by later generations," Bingtis's voice echoed in the spiritual connection, "Actually, many myths look like that from our position. Students have to take exams, and the invigilator follows them all the way - in the words of the Bible, it is "God walks with me". Actually, God is giving you grades. It's like the Icefield Trek in "Mo Hengsha Classic", that white Prophet Robe was actually just a fisherman who went fishing on the ice lake, and I happened to regard him as the subject of the world assessment, so in order to score him, I followed him all the way. Turning my face would be a test from the gods. "

I felt waves of laughter and tears welling up in my heart, and I could only shrug: "Then will this scene today be turned into a watercolor painting on the roof of the church in a few thousand years?"

Bingtis glanced at me silently and said: "It's possible, and your images will definitely appear in it. But there's really nothing to be happy about. This is a rule of thumb. All of my religious murals have He was painted like a stupid person..."

I sweated profusely, and then I thought that in a few years there might really be a group of monks preaching the gospel of the last days in the church, naming today's one-kilometer snowstorm road "Journey of Trials," and talking about wearing white robes. The prophet Tieke and the twelve disciples braved the darkness and storm that God tested them to move forward hard, followed by a group of gods wearing nlke and Louis Vuitton stools. At the end, one must add: God is always with them during the difficult journey. together……

"I understand you."

My sister said to Bingtis in a particularly emotional tone.

"That's right," the rogue goddess sighed, "When I was in the world under my jurisdiction, I once saw a group of primitive people being chased by mutated beasts. I used my war spear to drive away the beasts. As a result, I went back to see them twenty thousand years later. After taking a closer look, I discovered that those primitive people had built a statue of me holding a fire stick on every planet within ten light years... Deification and mythology are such ridiculous things."

"We're here! We're here! Just ahead! The last corner!"

At this moment, a burst of shouting from the front of the team interrupted Bingtis and I's discussion about the phenomenon of deification. Everyone's emotions were suddenly aroused, as if the physical strength consumed in the difficult march had returned instantly. As if terrified, Tieke led his team members and ran forward.

Five or six bright beams of light danced in the dark blizzard, illuminating the road ahead covered with broken ice and scrap metal parts. The journey finally reached the end, making everyone feel refreshed.

Although this journey was only a little over a kilometer, a kilometer of trekking through blizzards and frozen metal plains was definitely not that easy, so when we finally rounded the last corner and walked around the town from behind the giant condenser, Many people sat down and then raised their spotlights to shine in the direction of their original homes.

Nothing.

In the former Condenser Town, the giant condenser, which was most covered by metal shacks and living pods, is now empty, and there is no trace of the former town at all.

We have known this bad news for a long time, and now we can only sigh sadly, while the surrounding small town residents suddenly fell into terrible silence. Many of them were probably imagining that they could finally return home and be familiar with each other just a moment ago. After resting for a few hours in the warm cabin, the cruel reality suddenly woke everyone up.

The so-called disaster will not end so easily.

"The town... is gone?"

A short town citizen sat on the ground regardless of the ice on the ground, looking at the town that had changed beyond recognition and murmuring to himself.

Not to mention the ruins, nothing remains of the former Condenser Town. Except for some broken metal fragments, everything in the town in the past has disappeared. Those shacks riveted with metal plates and simple The living module was swept away by the hurricane and flew to an unknown place. What was left to us was a huge, bare, round alloy floor, with scattered pieces and pieces that had not been blown away by the hurricane and fixed on it. Riveted iron stakes on the ground.

"Everyone stand up, stand up!"

Tieke suddenly shouted loudly and kicked up the townspeople who were sitting on the ground. "If you don't want to die, don't sit on the ground in the snowstorm! Look what you look like! Are you here waiting to go home?" sleeping?"

"But the town..." someone whispered.

"Town, you **** didn't think of it now!" Tieke suddenly yelled, "It's impossible for the town to withstand this kind of hurricane from the beginning! Fools should have thought of this! We should be lucky now, if we hadn't run away Fast, now we are torn to pieces like those houses - Little Hammer, you lead everyone to find a shelter from the wind, Pop, come with me, we have to put the spotlight and rescue device on the high platform Secure it well, if you miss the search and rescue team, you will be dead."

The townspeople who were still immersed in shock and pain woke up from their dreams and realized that the most important thing now was to save their lives rather than being sentimental. So they took action one after another, looking for the nearest shelter or fixing the signal lights and transmitters for help— —The most important of them is the former. The transmitter is a piece of junk that was picked up from the garbage dump and does not work sometimes. Moreover, the signal is seriously attenuated. In such a harsh environment, its function is not even comparable to that of a camera. A flashlight pointed to the sky is worth nothing.

The surrounding area of ​​the town has been changed beyond recognition. Not only are the buildings in the town gone, but some nearby metal accumulation points have been blown away and turned into sharp debris covering the ground. Under the blow of the strong wind, the nearby alloy supports have been blown away. The remaining metal leaves were clattering. The originally dilapidated town was at least a home, but now, it is simply a ruin within ruins.

The short man nicknamed Little Hammer is a sturdy town citizen who looks to be less than thirty years old. Although he may look a little timid, being able to participate in such an action is unambiguous in the town. He soon found a suitable place to take shelter from the wind - a depression under the giant condenser resistance bolt (of course, Little Hammer himself may not know what this alloy pillar is for). The space was quite spacious, enough for everyone to hide. In it, even us.

Some townspeople found some large metal plates nearby, which may have been parts of the town's original walls. When the hurricane swept through, these metal plates were blown into the heat dissipation grille next to the resistance bolt and survived. , Little Hammer and a few young adults tried to pull them out of the radiator grille to make a wall that could withstand the cold wind. Unfortunately, everyone was exhausted, and these huge metal plates were firmly inserted into the grille under the influence of the hurricane. grid, pulling it out is beyond human power.

but……

"boom!"

The muffled sound caused by the deformation of metal came from not far away. A thick alloy gate with a height of more than three meters suddenly popped out of the gap where it was stuck, and then floated steadily towards this side. The townspeople They looked at this strange scene in the dim light and suddenly exclaimed: "Ah! Damn it! The wall is floating by itself!"

I jumped around and shouted, "Don't you see there's someone down there?"

Viska walked over carrying a metal plate several times her size, and threw the thing on the ground with a clang...

Then even more shocking things continued to happen. Pandora, Lilina, Huesca, and even the mercury lamp, a little guy less than one meter, all started to carry the things that were pulled down by the combined efforts of several strong men easily and happily. The metal plates that were all motionless soon piled up a lot of things next to the resistance bolt, and then Lin was responsible for inserting them into the ground to make a wall. The Dragon God Girl completed this task more easily, just like using a toothpick to peel a watermelon. Just like inserting it up, I held these huge alloy gates with two fingers and gently put them on the ground. The sound was more than half a meter deep. Then when the two alloy plates were butted, I pinched them in a circle with my hands, as if the two alloy plates were connected. It's like sticking together pieces of paper, and you can see that they have merged into one body as the firelight shines...

It is said that Lin can slowly squeeze a planet into a small bowl of neutron star material with her hands, and now I almost believe it.
