Chapter 249 Stay away from the sea
On the vast land, the field of vision is wide and deserted.
Looking around, there are only the remains of dilapidated and withered trees and scattered ruins buried in the sand.
The Leman Rust tank dragged the Trojan logistics vehicle on the bumpy roadbed.
The surface of the tank is still covered with scratches and marks, and the gray camouflage paint is mottled. In fact, there is no internal damage, and the body structure is still strong and solid.
There are a few large characters painted crookedly on the side of the turret:
"My Little Pony."
Under the thick and ferocious barrel, a thin wire connects from the muzzle brake to the coaxial storm bolter.
Three pairs of underwear of different sizes were hung on the wire, a pure white sports style, a black hollow lace style, and a simple gray thong style. The three pairs of underwear were fluttering in the wind.
It has quite a wasteland feel.
The sun is just right and the breeze is not dry.
The tank commander Fu Qinghai leaned out half of his body from the top of the turret. He was naked with his muscular upper body, only wearing a pair of big shorts, a tank commander's big-brimmed hat on his head, and a spark-sparkling gun in his mouth. The white mist from the big cigar drifted away in the cool breeze after the apocalypse.
"Qingshan, help me see if my bra is dry?"
Jiang Yixia shouted from below.
Fu Qinghai climbed out of the turret and came to the rear of the vehicle. This is the weakest part of the Leman Russ tank's armor. It is connected to the engine and exhaust pipe. Three bras are attached to the hot armor plate. Baked dry by the residual heat of the engine.
Fu Qinghai took the clothes away, retracted them into the car roof hatch, and handed them to Jiang Yixia, who was wearing cool clothes. At this time, Li Xingxian, who was wearing a small vest, also squeezed over and poked Fu Qinghai's arm with his finger. said:
"Qingshan, I'm hungry."
Fu Qinghai said:
"Ask Chen Xinlu to open the door for you, and you go to the armored vehicle to get the last bit of CPR."
"How long does it take to reach the next destination?"
Jiang Yixia asked.
Li Xingxian went to find Chen Xinlu. In the narrow space, only Jiang Yixia and Fu Qinghai were left. The woman did not move away, but squeezed in to talk to Fu Qinghai. The distance between the two was less than five centimeters. Even the breath you exhale is close at hand.
"If there is no problem with the accuracy of that map, it will probably take another five days of driving."
Fu Qinghai said.
As soon as he lowered his head, he could see the deep groove squeezed out of the sports bra. As an experienced driver, Fu Qinghai knew that the "Y" shape is forced out, while the "I" shape is natural. Jiang Yixia obviously belongs to the latter .
She-Hulk has always had a great figure.
Five days, even if the whole journey is through a desolate and uninhabited land like now, is still a big test for most reincarnations.
Without transportation, fuel supplies, and food and water, most of the reincarnators could only huddle in the place where they descended, unable to run around like Fu Qinghai.
The adamantine tracks crushed the gravel, moving forward slowly but firmly.
The surrounding scenery is unchanged.
The gray-white land stretches endlessly, with occasional ups and downs.
"Tsk-crunch."
The tank suddenly stopped.
Fu Qinghai poked his head out of the top hatch and looked at a lonely iron sign standing on the roadside. Dark red rust had covered the sign, and the bottom of the iron rod inserted in the ground was covered with salt and alkali. The English above is vaguely legible:
"Stay away from the sea."
Are we close to the sea yet?
Fu Qinghai took out the map and looked at it, and found that there was still quite a distance, estimated to be at least five or six kilometers.
Affected by the tidal range, the boundaries of the ocean are actually not fixed. The rise and fall of the tide after the apocalypse may be greater than before the apocalypse.
Fu Qinghai retracted into the car, squeezed away the empty power suit on the driver's seat, turned it to the right, and said:
"Let's go to the beach."
…
A few minutes later, the deep blue sea appeared in sight, the sound of the tide came, and the waves crashed on the gray-white gravel beach, which seemed harmless.
Fu Qinghai, wearing power armor, stood a few hundred meters away from the seaside. Looking at the gentle reciprocating waves in front of him, he leaned over and picked up a stone the size of a human head, and threw it hard towards the sea.
Under the huge physical force, the stone drew a long parabola, and fell into the sea with a "plop", splashing a high circle of white water.
Then, a bulge suddenly appeared on the seemingly calm sea. With a "crash" sound, the sea water parted in all directions, and a giant object slowly floated in the water. It turned out to be a pair of huge protruding eyes.
Two bulging, spherical eyes floated above the water. The eyes were one meter in diameter, with flat almond-shaped black pupils and silver and yellow irises.
The monster's fish eyes all turned to the middle, staring at Fu Qinghai, who was standing a few hundred meters away, as if assessing his size and edibility. In the end, this giant sea monster, with most of its body hidden under the sea, He just gave Fu Qinghai a cold look, and then slowly sank to the bottom of the water.
Hey, who are you looking down on?
Fu Qinghai suddenly became unhappy.
He said on the communication channel:
"Jiang Yixia, load a high-explosive bomb."
"High explosive bomb, are you sure?"
The crew members apparently also saw the giant eye that had just risen from the sea through the periscope, and Jiang Yixia couldn't help but confirm it again.
"Confirmed, Leman Russ MK3-G4 high-explosive bomb."
Fu Qinghai's tone was firm and he even read out the specific model of ammunition.
"Report to the commander, loading is complete."
"OK."
Fu Qinghai leaned over again, picked up a bigger stone, weighed it in his palm, put it down again, took out an armor-piercing grenade from his waist, pulled out the fuse, stepped forward, and swung it With his arms, he made a powerful and heavy one-armed swivel, throwing the grenade fiercely like a softball player.
“Bang—BANG!”
The armor-piercing grenade exploded just above the water.
The impact of the explosion caused the sea surface to shake violently, and the shrapnel fired caused bubbles to form in the deep water.
There is red blood flowing out of the deep blue water.
"Wow--"
The sea level made a violent sound, and the sea water all over the sky hung upside down like a waterfall, and the waves it raised spread in all directions.
The giant object burst out of the water.
It is difficult to describe the appearance of this sea monster.
Its appearance is very ugly. Its huge body is like a giant ship stranded on the beach. On the ridge is a row of sharp long hollow fins piercing the sky, like a row of sharp halberds. The body is thick and round with many knob-like protrusions. The skin resembles that of a toad, and the two pillar-like webbed claws forepaws are scraping hard on the gravel beach, and the speed of the fish is not slow. The limp and bulging belly of the fish is dragging on the ground, and water is still leaking out.
The strange fish opened its mouth forcefully, and there was an explosion in the air. Along with the sound of "whoosh", the long flesh-colored tongue with a diameter of one meter shot straight towards Fu Qinghai. The end of the tongue tore open a human face. Big mouth with sharp teeth.
Fu Qinghai easily avoided the blow by turning sideways, letting his tongue thorn fly away, and said:
"Fire."
"boom--"
The high-explosive bomb came out of the body, and the projectile sank directly into the body of the monster fish, just like a grain of rice piercing the body of the giant fish. Immediately afterwards, the sea monster's already swollen body swelled and bulged again, tearing the skin membrane to the limit. There was a faint light of fire.
"Crack-"
Under the influence of high explosives, the upper body of the sea monster exploded into pieces, shrapnel flew into the air, fire shot into the sky, half-moist, half-charred internal organs and minced meat fell like a shower, turning the gray-white gravel beach into plasma and ascites. A cross-flowing slaughterhouse.
"102 o'clock, not bad."
Fu Qinghai said.
Barely worth the price.
"Why did the fish get so big? Is it because of the radiation?"
Chen Xinlu asked in the communication channel.
"No."
Fu Qinghai squatted in front of a fat and coiled fish intestine, covered with translucent mucus, and said:
"It's the T-Abyss virus."
T-Abyssal Virus is a research product of the Federal Bioterrorism Committee (FBC), an official anti-biochemical organization in the Resident Evil game universe. It is a new virus formed by splicing the Abyssal Virus and T-Virus in deep-sea fish. Nicknamed the "seafood virus," one bottle of the virus in the game can infect one-fifth of the ocean.
According to the information in Vault 79, the entire earth's oceans are now filled with this virus, and the four oceans are completely hopeless. The ocean accounts for 70% of the earth's surface area. Now that the polar glaciers have completely melted, the ocean area will only become larger, but it is no longer within the scope of human activities.
In addition to viruses, radiation can actually make living things huge, but this is the Resident Evil movie universe, not the Hollow Earth universe, so the setting of Resident Evil is naturally given priority.
The carcasses of the sea monsters piled up a high hill on the shore.
"Crack!" "Crack!" "Crack!"
The sound of jumping water sounded, and Fu Qinghai looked to the other side.
Hey, the broken tongue of a strange fish can survive independently and is still struggling and rolling?
Fu Qinghai took a closer look and saw that it was a strange zombie with its lower body and tongue connected together.
"Wow, come and see."
Fu Qinghai called the crew members.
The three women, wearing yellow protective clothing, walked out of the carriage and gathered around to observe the spectacle together.
A streamlined flesh-gray carapace grew from the top of the zombie's head, covering its back. The upper limbs turned into six pairs of shrimp-like appendages. The lower body was the tongue of the strange fish. Dark organs and rectum were vaguely visible in the translucent flesh. .
If it weren't for the human face covered with a thin transparent shell under the carapace, Fu Qinghai wouldn't have been able to recognize that it had once been a human being.
Seawalker, a T-Abyss virus zombie.
"I've heard of cephalothorax before."
Fu Qinghai said to the three women.
“The fish louse enters the fish’s mouth during the larval stage, sucks the fish’s blood through the fish’s tongue, until the fish’s tongue completely atrophies, and then connects its tail to the atrophied fish tongue to work instead of the fish’s tongue, transforming from parasitism to symbiosis. "
"Unexpectedly, today I actually saw a zombie replace the sea monster's tongue and turn into a zombie fish louse."
This sea skimmer with its tongue seemed to be unable to adapt to life on land. Perhaps it was unable to take in oxygen. In short, it died quickly within a few hops.
"What is this indicating?"
Chen Xinlu turned around and asked.
She didn't think Fu Qinghai was so bored that he let the three of them come out just to see something strange.
Fu Qinghai's tone was full of emotion:
“Even zombie fish lice have appeared, which shows that... viruses and zombies have completely adapted to and dominated the earth. They have established a brand-new ecosystem, a new nature based on viruses. Those of us who are not infected with viruses, They are the alien species in this system.”
Fu Qinghai cast his eyes towards the sea.
Humanity's eyes are still fixed on the dilapidated ruins on the land. Little do they know that in the deep and vast blue sea, a new and vibrant system is quietly being built.
The ocean is indeed the birthplace of all life.
Losing the support of seawater buoyancy, and having its internal skeleton shattered by high-explosive bombs, the giant sea monster's body was slowly collapsing under its own weight. Chen Xinlu glanced at the mountain of sea monster corpses in disgust and said :
"Let's go back."
"Um."
Fu Qinghai nodded and was about to walk back when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the sea monster's cracked body. A metal object was exposed from among the large clumps of organs that had slipped down, and then it was covered up by the intestines and mucus that continued to slide down. .
"etc!"
Fu Qinghai quickly stopped the three women.
While activating active and passive fluoroscopy, he strode toward the mountain of corpses. The black and white fluoroscopy imaging views were constantly switching, looking for a perspective that could penetrate the thick organs.
Soon, Fu Qinghai saw three things that were obviously not biological organs. They were square objects with sharp edges and corners, wrapped in the intestines of the sea monster.
Fu Qinghai stepped inside the corpse, stepping on the thick and slippery tissue fluid, and long filaments pulled out from the soles of his shoes. He walked to the squirming and collapsed group of organs, and reached out to pull open the stacked dark pink intestines.
Fu Qinghai first saw a pile of yellowed broken bones. He couldn't tell whether they belonged to one person or several people. He couldn't even tell whether they belonged to humans. They had been digested so thoroughly that not even a strand of meat was left.
Then, an exquisite square box intertwined with black and silver, and two gorgeous pistols with strange shapes, lay quietly in the fish intestines.
Fu Qinghai picked up these three items from the sticky intestinal fluid and kept looking at them in his hands. The transparent mucus continued to drip. The three items were wrapped in fish intestines for a long time and still looked as beautiful as new.
Fu Qinghai turned back to the tank and asked:
"What is this?"
Chen Xinlu and Jiang Yixia were equally confused.
Only Li Xingxian looked at the box in Fu Qinghai's hand, his eyes suddenly opened wider and wider, and he said in a trembling voice:
"That's... it's... the phylactery, the lich's phylactery!"
"What?"
When Li Xingxian said this, Chen Xinlu was also shocked.
Fu Qinghai raised his head:
"Are you sure?"
As one of the classic settings for advanced undead creatures such as lich, Fu Qinghai has certainly heard of the "life box".
And thinking back carefully, this setting originally came from the ancient IP of Dungeons and Dragons, and was later used by Western fantasy worldviews such as Warcraft, World of Warcraft, and Heroes of Invincibility to this day.
No wonder Li Xingxian recognized it at a glance.
Li Xingxian nodded vigorously:
"I am very sure that this is the lich's phylactery. The shell is made of black iron and mithril, with the necromantic runes and arcane patterns on it. This is a standard lich phylactery."
No matter which setting of the Western fantasy world view, the phylactery binds the soul of the lich. If the phylactery is not broken, the lich will not be destroyed. In contrast, the lich must hide his phylactery to prevent the enemy from finding it. .
"This is interesting."
Fu Qinghai threw the square box in his hand.
"Then which reincarnation's life box is this?"
None of the four people had an answer to this question.
"Then these two pistols... Let me go, why don't these pistols even have magazines?"
Fu Qinghai was shocked as soon as he picked up the pistol.
One is jet black and the other is silver white. The body of the gun is as gorgeous and exquisite as a work of art. It looks like a desert eagle. The grip is designed in a twisted and sharp curve. The entire grip is integrated. There is no magazine in this shape of the grip. , Fu Qinghai tried to pull the trigger, but the gun made a hollow sound and no bullet was fired.
"What stuff? Crafts? Toys?"
Fu Qinghai felt baffled.
Normally, reincarnators would not spend points to assimilate useless toys, and besides being able to withstand the corrosion of the sea monster's digestive tract, they shouldn't be ordinary mortals.
Unable to figure it out, Fu Qinghai could only check the sea monster's body again, but found nothing else. After completing the virus elimination process, the four of them returned to the tank compartment.
"Rumble..."
The engine roared and we were back on the road.
…
In the carriage, Li Xingxian held the life box in his hand, his delicate little face wrinkled, as if he was puzzled.
"What's wrong?"
Fu Qinghai turned around and saw her expression and couldn't help but ask.
"The lich is very strong."
Li Xingxian frowned and said:
"Whether it is the DND universe or other Western fantasy universes, lichs are very powerful high-level undead. How could the precious life box...how could it appear in the belly of the sea monster?"
"Maybe he hid the life box there on purpose. The ocean is so big and sea monsters swim everywhere, and no one can find it."
Jiang Yixia curled her lips and interjected.
Li Xingxian obviously didn't agree with Jiang Yixia's explanation.
"You may have forgotten something."
Fu Qinghai reminded:
"The Resident Evil movie universe is a pure science fiction universe. There is no magic network, no subspace, and no four elements. Any spellcaster who comes here has to rely on the infestation of rules to complete the spellcasting. There are probably not many lichs coming. powerful."
When faced with this pure science fiction background setting, no matter whether it is a genius like Lust or a fool like Li Xingxian, they can only put their hands on it, and no one can do anything.
Lust can rely on subspace to cast spells in the Warhammer 40K universe, and he can rely on the Force to alchemy in the Star Wars universe, but in the Resident Evil movie universe, he can only do scientific research and experiments honestly.
"That's true."
Li Xingxian was quite convinced by Fu Qinghai's statement.
"Speaking of which, we haven't eaten yet."
Jiang Yixia reminded.
"That sea monster is so disgusting, and it also has zombie fish lice, which makes me lose my appetite."
Chen Xinlu said with a disgusted face.
Fu Qinghai glanced outside the car and saw that the sky was getting dark.
"When I find a suitable place, I will bury the pot and make rice."
…
The evening sun, the afterglow of the setting sun.
Tanks and armored vehicles parked at the top of the hills, long black silhouettes on the gentle slopes.
A waterproof felt was set up on the front of the car, and Fu Qinghai set up an iron pot on the charcoal, preparing to make a protein bar and mushroom soup.
"Where did the mushrooms come from?"
Fu Qinghai was quite surprised when Jiang Yixia carried out half a basket of mushrooms.
"Have you forgotten, in Shelter 109, the reincarnator named Tevis collected the mushrooms?"
Fu Qinghai took it over and took a look. The pork liver was copper-green in color and the various mushrooms were a little wilted.
"I'm not a fungi taxonomy major, so I can't tell whether it's edible or not."
Fu Qinghai said.
"If everyone has picked it, they must be able to eat it."
Jiang Yixia said nonchalantly.
Fu Qinghai picked up a piece of mushroom, took a bite and said:
"The taste detection nerve didn't alarm. I can eat it, but I don't know if you can eat it."
"Hey, don't worry about it. Improve your food. I'm tired of eating protein bars and compressed biscuits every day."
Li Xingxian waved his hand and said.
The crops produced in Shelter 79 all contain fungal genetic components. Except for those fungus people, normal people would not dare to eat them. Fu Qinghai and others only took unopened emergency food brought in from outside by Perfect Humans, such as compressed biscuits.
Fine.
Since everyone said so, Fu Qinghai didn't worry too much. After the water boiled, he poured the mushrooms, protein bars, compressed biscuits and salt into the pot.
Then he found a revolver buried in the pile of mushrooms. Fu Qinghai said "Huh", took it out, held it in his hand and looked at it.
"what happened again?"
Jiang Yixia leaned over and saw Fu Qinghai examining the revolver in his hand, and explained:
"This is the weapon used by the reincarnator. It's just an ordinary revolver. It can't even penetrate my transformed skin. Is there anything special about it?"
What puzzled Jiang Yixia was that even the weapons of the dead Spartan warrior, the MA5B assault rifle and the M41-SPNKR rocket launcher, Fu Qinghai looked down upon, saying that they were too powerful and not for space warriors.
She excitedly showed it to Fu Qinghai, thinking he would like it.
Why are you so interested in holding a small broken pistol now?
"Nothing, I just happen to recognize the model and origin."
Fu Qinghai threw the pistol aside.
The single-pump revolver, a wasteland weapon with a simple structure, comes from "Fallout: New Vegas", and there is nothing unusual about it.
Everyone enjoyed a rare mushroom soup, packed up their utensils and returned to the carriage, preparing to spend the night.
Night falls quietly.
Qing Ming is responsible for the night shift, and AI does not need to rest.
After driving the tank all day, Fu Qinghai didn't want to meditate tonight, he just wanted to have a good sleep.
So I lay down directly on the cold floor.
The three women also went to bed early.
Under the regulation of the stiffness nodes, Fu Qinghai entered deep sleep in one second.
…
The full moon hangs high and the night is quiet.
There was only the sound of even breathing in the carriage.
Chen Xinlu had a dream.
A very realistic dream.
She dreamed that Fu Qinghai suddenly showed his bestiality and wanted to use force on her. Chen Xinlu would rather die than resist with all his strength. But how could she, a weak mage, resist the strong Space Warrior? He pinned her down with his body. On the inner wall of the carriage, her cheek was pressed tightly against his chest, like a wall that couldn't be pushed away. His breath was hot and hot, spraying between her neck, making her body go weak.
Chen Xinlu couldn't resist, so in the end she could only half push and half obey Fu Qinghai, allowing him to spread her legs and place them on both sides of his strong waist...
Chen Xinlu suddenly woke up.
The carriage was dark.
She found that at some point, she was leaning against Fu Qinghai's side, her hands tightly around Fu Qinghai's neck, and her two thighs pinched his thigh tightly.
"!?"
Chen Xinlu stood up instantly.
As a result, Fu Qinghai also woke up.
Fu Qinghai opened his eyes and realized that he was holding Jiang Yixia's shoulder with his left hand. The woman was resting on his arm and her thigh was on his waist. She was sleeping soundly. Li Xingxian was sleeping soundly on his chest, and her clothes were all covered by her. A large area was soaked with saliva.
Chen Xinlu was sitting slumped on her right, with a dull look on her face.
Fu Qinghai was a little confused.
For a moment I didn't understand what was happening.
Fu Qinghai reached out and lifted Li Xingxian up, put him aside, patted Jiang Yixia on the back, and said:
"Hey, wake up."
Jiang Yixia twisted her body and let out a dissatisfied groan. She hooked her elbows around Fu Qinghai's neck and squeezed her head between his necks.
Until Chen Xinlu called softly: "Axia."
Jiang Yixia finally woke up, her messy hair draped over her shoulders, she stood up crookedly, rubbed her eyes with one hand, and asked:
"What's the matter?"
…
Fu Qinghai walked back from the gate of dimension.
He had just used the dimensional door to return to the ruins of Vault 79, and re-tested the remaining mushrooms in the underground laboratory. The conclusion was that they were slightly poisonous and mentally damaging.
"It's a hallucinogenic mushroom, it has no effect."
Fu Qinghai said casually.
The deep sleep of the Astartes only takes four hours, and they won't let me sleep for even a mere four hours?
Reciting "No need for passion, calm mind" three times in his heart, Fu Qinghai thought to himself, please don't mess with me anymore.
Chen Xinlu stared at Jiang Yixia's profile.
I thought to myself: Asia, you are so scheming.
You are the Hulk.
Xingxian and I will be poisoned if we eat mushrooms. Could it be that you, the Hulk, will also be poisoned?
