Chapter 389 (1/2)
It's a nuclear crater, or a circular lake.
The lake is a sea of fireflies, beautiful and ominous.
The water of the lake is very clear, but it is as thick as a gel. Occasionally, a breeze can't make any ripples.
In the middle of the lake, floating a hill.
it is a hill made of dark red meat. The blood vessels which are densely distributed on its surface frequently wriggle, sending nutrients to the whole body. The huge body relies on the tentacles which are like jellyfish tentacles on the chassis, just like a giant tree rooted in the lake.
A huge tree of flesh and blood.
On the top of it, there is a cilia as thick as a forearm, about ten meters long. At the top of the cilia, there is a glowing meat bubble. It's like an antenna, hanging a bright light. Weak fluorescence flicker, as if listening to something, but also as if calling something.
No one has been here for 20 years, and no one can walk here. This is the forbidden zone of life.
However, there are still a few species that can get close to it.
Dead claws, for example, are one of them.
Perhaps guided by the faint light, a dead claw slowly approached the nuclear crater.
It wags its spiny tail, and its claws grip a dying survivor.
The survivor's face was ugly, his ulcerated skin was covered with deformed wrinkles, and the high-intensity radiation cancerous transformed every inch of his body cells. The swollen skin of the mouth moved slowly, murmuring words that could not be heard clearly. With the shaking of his facial muscles, large pieces of dandruff peeled off his face.
His face was sad. But its face was solemn.
It was as if there was some sort of mysterious ceremony in which the dead claw held him high.
In the howl of fear, it devoutly throws the prey into the lake.
The thick ripple swung open and soon swallowed up the figure of the man.
As usual. After offering the tribute, the dead claw turned and left.
However, at this time, the change happened!
The thick lake water suddenly rolled up, and large bubbles of air rose from the bottom of the lake, just like boiling water. And the survivor who sank to the bottom of the lake is the last firewood to light the water of Wanghu lake!
The dead claw jerked its head. Copper bell size eyes narrowed into a slit, surprised to swim between the rising light and restless meat.
At the same time, dozens of kilometers away in a villa, sleeping Lin Ling suddenly opened her eyes.
Breathing is still even, as if still in a deep sleep.
However, the two red spots in the pupil are so conspicuous in the dark.
...
it's mid June. Jiang Chen plans to return to this world in the near future. Everything has been arranged for the wasteland side. The last batch of recruits also went to the front line yesterday. It is the same whether he is sitting in the office in the base at the moment. Sun Jiao, as the Marshal's wife, will arrange the chores for him, and Lin Ling will inform him of major events through the four-dimensional transmitter.
However, he still has to go to the office today. An envoy from Hangzhou wants to see him.
”Ha -” yawned, and Lin Ling came out of the room with her sleepy eyes.
”Stay up late?” Standing in the living room, Jiang Chen, who was preparing to go out, asked with a smile.
”No. I just don't know why I'm so sleepy... Well, I'm a little hungry. ” Lin Ling kneaded her flat abdomen and walked vaguely to the kitchen.
I don't know what happened. Lin Ling has been in this listless state these days. Jiang Chen thought that she was sick at first, but Lin Ling was very responsible and told him that the electronic man would not be sick.
