Chapter 71 Reminder
The man wearing a ripped plush hat talked, suddenly he couldn't control his voice:
"He's not an aberrant creature, right?"
He still remembers his previous experiences freshly and is full of fear. Once he finds corresponding signs, he will inevitably think about it in similar aspects.
"He obviously has enough wisdom, and is definitely not a 'intentional person', and he also looks like a human." An Ruxiang denied his companion's speculation without hesitation.
"What if he is a monster, just makes us 'feel' like a person? Think about it, the previous 'high unintentional person', who didn't take out anything, makes us think that she has extremely precious and must-have items." The man wearing a ripped plush hat retorted slightly quickly.
An Ruxiang had no way to explain, so she thought carefully and said:
“Indeed, there is a possibility. However, there is another possibility:
"He is an awakened person, and one of his abilities is charming."
The man wearing a ripped plush hat thought carefully:
"After you say this, I think it's really possible, haha, the awakened people are almost the same as distorted creatures in my heart. No, they are more terrifying and weirder than most distorted creatures. It should be said that they are similar to what we encountered this time."
Most aberrant organisms are closer to the residents of Black Swamp Iron Snake and Black Rat Town. Some parts of the body have changed, bringing certain, fully understandable enhancements.
Hearing the words of his companions, An Ruxiang couldn't help but recall what happened this time.
Several hours after the incident, with her experience and determination, she was still a little unable to get out of it.
It was like a real nightmare that I couldn't wake up no matter how hard it was.
An Ruxiang took a breath and slowly exhaled it, looking back at the streets when she came:
“Are they also fascinated?
“I remember when I first met them in the wilderness, there were only four of them, not the man who was suspected to be an awakened man.
"Do you want to remind them?"
The man wearing a ripped plush hat immediately shook his head and said:
"This is too dangerous!"
An Ruxiang pondered for a few seconds and said:
"They told us about the guardian stone, returned the most important items to us, and also placed the guardian stone's body in a closed room to prevent the "unintentional" from discovering it soon, eating him...
"For me, this is a heavy favor, a 'thing' worth a lot of things."
"Don't you share the information with them too?" The man wearing a ripped plush hat tried his best to stop it. "Don't you think that that person was wearing a military exoskeleton device, and even if he was not an awakened person, he could easily solve us!"
An Ruxiang nodded:
"Don't worry, I won't take risks, I'll take the body of the guard stone back.
"It hasn't been long since. They are not too far away from us. I plan to just shout a few words here. As for whether they can hear it, and whether they can understand the situation after hearing it, it is not something I can control."
"Scream here?" The man wearing a ripped plush hat looked around, "Okay, I'll yell for you, leave immediately after shouting."
An Ruxiang turned her body, hung up a black pistol, put her hands together in a trumpet shape, and put them to her mouth.
The next second, her sharp and loud voice sounded:
“He is charming!
"Be careful to be controlled by him!"
…………
Long Yuehong was holding the "Berserker" assault rifle, guarding the corresponding area and jogging on the left side of the team.
After listening to An Ruxiang's story and the discussion of the team leader Bai Chen, he became even more afraid of this exploration. Whether it was forced to fall asleep, real nightmare, or irresistible traps, they all exceeded his ability to bear, making him instinctively feel that this was not something he could handle.
If Long Yuehong had not seen Shang Jianyao's "reasoning clown" and the mechanical monk's "hungry ghost path" of the Dharma, he felt that he might have collapsed now.
Uncontrollable fear continued to grow in Long Yuehong's heart, making him unable to help but examine this action.
Why take such a big risk?... Didn’t the team leader say that before we truly adapt to the dust and soil life and accumulate enough experience, we won’t take us to too dangerous places... Help Qiao Chu really should, as long as he can have a better impression of me... But, is this worth it? I’m not married yet... During the trot, Long Yuehong looked at the figure wearing an exoskeleton device in the front, and fell into a strong struggle in her heart.
As he looked, he suddenly felt sad:
I only had 1.75 meters of genetic improvement, and I looked average. I only had average grades in each subject. I was assigned to the most dangerous group of the Ministry of Safety. I was a bad son. How could Qiao Chu look down on me? Forget it, it would be better to give up on his own initiative...
give up……
Long Yuehong's eyes gradually became confused, as if she had caught something wrong but couldn't say it.
At this moment, there was an intermittent sound from the wind:
"Ceep...be careful...control..."
The sound was very sharp, but it seemed very unclear because it was a distance away.
Jiang Baimian then slowed down and said slightly:
"What are you calling?"
"I only hear 'be careful'." Shang Jianyao replied seriously, "It seems that someone is giving us good wishes."
The next second, another sound came from the wind:
"Ceep...be careful...control..."
This time, a high-pitched male voice sounded.
"Control..." Bai Chen tried his best to distinguish.
Qiao Chu, who was at the front of the team, changed slightly and said in a deep voice:
"Can't delay any more, let's go."
"Okay." Jiang Baimian could not refuse.
The group of five people trotted again.
Long Yuehong is on the left side of the team, and there is always the sound he heard in his mind that he has just heard:
“Be careful…control…
“Be careful to control?
"Be careful to control..."
He was shocked and vaguely realized that something was wrong now.
He subconsciously turned around and looked at Shang Jianyao, the best-affiliated team.
While trotting, he saw Shang Jianyao's mouth open and he returned a bright smile.
What does he mean... Long Yuehong tried to understand Shang Jianyao's idea, but failed.
He turned to the little things he had gone through, trying to find clues related to the problem.
Two or three minutes later, they bypassed a building and saw the destination "sinking" in the darkness.
It was a building that was hundreds of meters high, with a large courtyard, and it was extremely quiet inside.
Because there were still two or three hundred meters left, Shang Jianyao and others could not see clearly what the plaque placed horizontally on the ground at the courtyard gate was written.
At this moment, Qiao Chu, who was in front, suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards, he leaned back and fell to the ground amid the sound of metal collision.
Jiang Baimian and others watched this scene in shock, subconsciously moving closer to confirm the problem.
Almost at the same time, the exoskeleton device made a beeping sound, and all auxiliary joints shaking together.
Qiao Chu's body followed and he slowly got up.
At this time, Jiang Baimian seemed to have noticed something, and held a grenade gun and pulled the trigger above a street tree on the side.
Boom!
A ball of fire expanded rapidly, illuminating the ignited tree canopy and a figure jumping into the street building.
It was a cat-shaped creature, one meter long, and there seemed to be no hair or skin on the surface. The blood-red "muscle" was directly exposed.
Its tail seemed to come from a scorpion, covered with a hard brown shell and had barbs; its shoulders were decorated with clusters of white bone spurs; it seemed to have four ears on its head.
No matter how you look at it, it is not a normal creature.
The monster jumped into a room on the second floor and almost avoided the explosion of the grenade. Then, it ran quickly, broke away from Jiang Baimian's sensing range, and disappeared deep into the buildings on the street.
At this time, Qiao Chu had returned to normal and stood up again.
He looked at the direction where the monster disappeared and said in a deep voice:
“I just fell asleep.
"Fortunately, the induction wake-up function of this exoskeleton device is good."
"Is that a monster that forces people to fall asleep?" Bai Chen immediately reacted.
"It seems like a distorted creature." Jiang Baimian made a judgment.
Qiao Chu didn't try to chase the cat-shaped monster, pointing to his destination and said:
"We're over."
Shang Jianyao was the first to express his opinion and ran towards the tall building with its own courtyard.
Jiang Baimian and others quickly followed.
"Do you want to give it a name?" Shang Jianyao suddenly asked while running.
"Who?" Jiang Baimian was a little confused.
"That monster just now." Shang Jianyao said seriously, "Call it a ghost cat?"
"It sounds so ugly." Jiang Baimian subconsciously denied, "I call her Anmian Cat!"
While speaking, they arrived at the destination and came to the gate of the courtyard.
With the help of slightly faint starlight and moonlight, they saw clearly the black plaque lying on the ground.
The plaque is made of stone and does not look too dirty, as if it is often washed by rain or "maintained" by someone.
None of the golden characters on its surface fell off, and they were all gray and earthen text.
These words form a noun that Long Yuehong has never heard of:
"Urban Smart Network Control Center"
"What is this?" Long Yuehong blurted out.
Jiang Baimian explained a little:
"In some cities, tap water pipelines, natural gas pipelines, wires, optical fibers and other mixed things are integrated together to form a huge intelligent pipeline network.
"The one who controls this pipeline is the Urban Intelligent Network Center."
"Then... why are we here?" Long Yuehong became more and more confused.
At this time, Qiao Chu, who was wearing an exoskeleton device, said indifferently:
"Around the ruins of this city, there is a hydropower station that is still in operation and is "maintenance". Many lines in the ruins of this city are also "maintained" and are well maintained.
"All we need to do is go into the control center and turn on the power again."
"Why do you need to turn on the electricity?" Jiang Baimian asked subconsciously.
Qiao Chu was silent for two seconds and said:
“To open all doors of a laboratory.”
