Dawn Infinity

v11 Chapter 8: Human traces

At about 5:30 in the afternoon that day, all the team members had returned to the square. At the same time, they also brought back a large amount of canvas, plastic sheeting, wood panels, aluminum alloy blocks and metal bars, all piled high together. After Chu Hao carefully selected among them, he selected some cloth and wood, as well as aluminum alloy blocks, and put them into his space debris. 【For more wonderful novels, please visit】

"It's almost done. Let's get to the edge of the city first, and then find a huge tree to live in. It is too late today, and we will start to make hot air balloons tomorrow. It is best to finish it tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and then we rush to New York."

After Chu Hao made the decision, he led everyone to find a few cars that could still be driven, and drove directly out of the city.

And the location of this city has basically been figured out. It is located in a city in Tennessee, and there is still a long way to go from here to New York, and everyone only has 30 days, so there is really no delay. .

It’s not too long to drive. Everyone has come to the edge of the city. From here, the fields outside are already covered with green grass and trees. You can only vaguely see the highway road, and even the grass on both sides of the highway has almost grown onto the road. , That kind of wastefulness made everyone feel stronger.

It was about six o'clock at this moment, the sun was about to set, and the entire sky was fiery red. After a while, the sky would darken. From then on, it would be extremely dangerous in this wilderness, and everyone didn’t know Chu Hao. What was exchanged? Except for a few people, everyone else started to become nervous. Aoqi said directly: "Captain, are we going to drive overnight? But those zombies, no, I think they should be called mutants, those Mutants hunt at night, and you might encounter them on the highway too!"

"Of course it is impossible to rush at night."

Chu Hao smiled slightly, and directly found the thickest tree. After closing his eyes in silence in front of the tree for a moment, he opened his eyes and began to make gestures, then chanted a spell, and then everyone In his eyes, a wooden gate appeared on the trunk of this tree.

Everyone saw that Chu Hao actually opened the door. Behind the door, it was not a tree trunk, but a wooden room, and there were wooden chairs, tables and beds, even the floor. The wooden ones, and even the windows, look a bit like holiday cabins in the country. 【For more wonderful novels, please visit】

Chu Hao walked directly into the wooden house, while the others hesitated a little, and followed Chu Hao into it. After walking inside, everyone found that the room was not small, at least more than 50 square meters. Although there is only one room, it’s easy for this room to accommodate the entire Arctician team members. But in fact, the trunk diameter of this big tree is absolutely no more than ten meters in diameter. This room is even bigger than the big tree. Much larger.

"After the door is closed, it is directly the trunk of the big tree from the outside, and even if the trunk is broken, it is impossible to enter our room. To be precise, this room should be a reduced half plane. , It’s not through a special method. Or a huge amount of energy can’t enter this space if it breaks through the magic limit. Of course, windows or anything will not be displayed from the outside. This tree is just a tree, so we are here. It is absolutely safe. The only pity is that the size of this room is determined by the tree, and a tree smaller than the thickness of a door cannot use this magic, and it can only last for twenty-four hours, twenty-four hours. Later, this tree will die."

Although Chu Hao said so, but he is very satisfied with this magic. Perhaps this magic has great restrictions under the dnd rules. For example, the druids in the dnd rules will prevent the spread and use of this magic. Will use force, and there are also gods in the forest system to prevent it, so this magic that consumes the life of a certain tree age, there is indeed a limit under the dnd rule.

But for the real world, this magic is extremely useful. It is necessary for traveling at home and killing people and arson. You only need a big tree to have a near-absolutely safe home. There is no need to worry about the dangers in the wild at all. It can be regarded as a kind of magic that hides all signs. This kind of magic is simply too cost-effective. If you want to use technology or creation to achieve this, you must invest at least tens of thousands of reward points to achieve it, but magic is only Only one tree is needed.

For such a wooden house, the rest of the team are obviously very excited, not to mention safety, this is really free from the pain of traveling, especially the newcomer girl, who is walking around in the wooden house with excitement.

In addition, since the return of reality, this newcomer girl is obviously more energetic than before, and she will talk and laugh, and is no longer as lifeless as before. At this time, she is the most surprised and active in the wooden house.

Now that they have a safe place to live, everyone is finally relieved, and now they begin to prepare dinner. Because of Chu Hao’s space fragments, there is no shortage of ingredients. Although there is no chef, many people present have cooking. Experience, you will never eat half-baked food. Although the taste cannot be guaranteed to be delicious, it can be full, right? And it can be very full... such as Nian Xikong...

After dinner, everyone was chatting with each other without a match, and I didn’t know where Zhang Heng came out of a deck of cards. He pulled Tom and Aoqi and started fighting the landlords, but they played a few. After that, the newcomer girl Bilis suddenly exclaimed and focused everyone's attention, and then Bilis suddenly pointed to the distance and said: "There, there is fire there!"

Everyone hurriedly stood up and gathered in front of the window. Sure enough, looking out from the window, they saw that there was a faint fire at the very far distance of the horizon, but it was not obvious. Looking at it from such a distance. , But it’s just a little bit of red dots. If it hadn’t been for this era that the so-called light source pollution had long been gone, or if it were placed in a normal world, it would have been impossible to see such a small amount of light even in the wild.

Everyone saw the fire, and they looked at Chu Hao at the same time. Chu Hao was silent for a moment, and then shook his head flatly: "No, one is too far away, even if you rush to Nian Xikong, you also need to go. It took a long time to rush over, and if anyone over there is still talking about it, and it’s night, it’s too dangerous. When the door is opened, creatures outside can rush in. I can’t make fun of your lives, so I I won’t promise you to leave this house and record that direction at most. We’ll search tomorrow, and people who can live from the end to the present will generally have a way to deal with these mutants. Maybe this fire is one of their methods. One, we rushed over, maybe it hurt them, so let’s do it, we won’t go out."

When there was no word at night, the next day it was bright and the sun came out, everyone left the tree house, and outside the tree house, the vehicles that everyone drove yesterday clearly showed signs of being turned over and pushed, and there were many signs on the ground. The footprints are obvious. Outside the tree house, I didn't know how many mutants had come yesterday. Suddenly, the newcomer girl and Tom muttered. Fortunately, they didn't leave the tree house yesterday, otherwise they would definitely be knocked into the sky.

For these mutants, Chu Hao has already speculated. First, their metabolism is extremely fast. This can be seen from the movie plot, which causes their body temperature to rise and they are very sensitive to cold. , Because their metabolism speeds up, they are extremely powerful and extremely fast, and they are likely to cause both muscle strength and bone strength to increase at the same time. Almost every mutant is nearly ten times stronger than ordinary people.

The above are the two features directly reflected in the plot. Secondly, Chu Hao guessed that their sense of smell should be sensitive, otherwise the protagonist would not spray disinfectant to remove the smell every time he returned, while the last woman in the plot did not spray it. Disinfecting water immediately caused these mutants to find the room where the male protagonist is located, and this sense of smell allows them to better hunt prey.

That’s right, the acceleration of metabolism not only brings about physical improvement, but also increases their food consumption. At the same time, their life span should also be reduced. Naturally, it is impossible for these mutants to grow anything, so they only It may be hunting various creatures, of course, it may also dig plant tubers, after all, they are also derived from human variants, so they should still be omnivorous, because after all, they are not real zombies, not those dead.

Not to mention these ~lightnovelpub.net~ After everyone left the tree house, Chu Hao immediately ordered Nian Xikong to rush to the place where the fire was emitted last night, and fly with Xikong's sword. It only took ten minutes to get from there. While returning, the information she brought back made Chu Hao think about it for a while, because she found an overturned large truck there with a lot of food and various human supplies, such as paper and clothes. There was even toothpaste, and the truck had exploded and was charred to a mess. Blood stains were also found on the scene, but no corpses were found. In addition, according to Nian Xikong, they were also found there. Many traces of vehicles driving can leave traces, then at least there have been vehicles driving past recently.

"In other words, there should be human gathering places in the mountains or plateaus near here?"

Chu Hao murmured with interest, and beside him, Zhang Heng immediately asked, "You seem to be very interested? Are you planning to find a gathering place for surviving humans?"

Chu Hao suddenly laughed. He smiled and said, "Yeah, if you can find a gathering place for surviving humans along the way, then why not? Yes, Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Heng, we are the secrets of the human government from the 51st area of ​​the United States. The last survivor in the laboratory, how can you not find the gathering place for survivors?"

"We are... the redeemers of this world."
