Chapter 478 (1/2)

The snow in the Western tundra has not yet melted, but the wilderness near asgat has ushered in spring. As the snow faded away, it turned into snow water and infiltrated into the stratum. However, it did not bring vitality to all things like the old times. On the contrary, it made the living environment more harsh. If the snow containing radiation is only piled up on the ground, as long as it does not go deep into the snow, the radiation resistance of wild organisms is not as good as the ground.

But it's a different concept to infiltrate into the ground with snow water.

That means that the radiation level of the stratum will be increased, and the water source from snow water to groundwater will not be edible in a short time. For some cave dwelling creatures, it's even more devastating. Snow water with strong radiation enters their nests, even if they don't want to end their hibernation. For the sake of his own life, he had to break the lichen and come to the cold ground.

Plants will suffer the most severe test, but after more than half a century of evolution. Most of the wild plants have developed defense systems against this phenomenon, including herbs, flowers and trees. Before winter, they try to get their roots deep enough to reach underground water. At that time, the groundwater was still edible, so these abnormal plants would continuously extract water and store it in the body as much as possible.

When winter comes to an end, they will stop all activities. As a result, the skin of the plant will quickly age, and the fibers will stretch from a relatively loose network to a surface. So from the outside, all the parts on the surface of the earth wither away, while the roots under the earth become old and tough. Even the wild hamsters can't bite them, and when the snow melts, the highly radiated snow water can't enter the plant through the loose fiber channels, thus destroying its important internal tissues.

The water previously stored in the body will help plants survive the most difficult period. When summer comes, the radiation of ground water will precipitate or decrease. These abnormal plants will shed the old and dead parts and grow new buds.

Therefore, for plants, spring is fatal, only in summer, they can usher in new life.

This is the law of survival in the wilderness. Both plants and mutants have to follow this law to survive. Plants can store clean water in advance, and a small part of the mutants have the same function. Those without water storage organs can only live on the blood of other mutants, or break into human settlements to plunder purified water.

So in a way, spring is a busy season. It's just different from the lively bustle of the old era. The spring of the new era is the time of the year with the most killing atmosphere.

Humans are the smarter beings in the earth's current life system. They can't store pure water in advance like mutant plants, and rarely attack their companions like mutant animals. After all, they are the first creatures on the planet to know how to make and use tools, even in the most humble settlements, even without advanced water purification equipment. But there are always containers for storing water. People living in the settlement will try their best to store as much pure water as they can before spring, so as to survive the spring which is more severe than the cold winter.

This is also the main reason why the mutants attack human settlements. The conflict lasts all the year round, but it is the most serious in spring.

It's all about survival, whether it's humans or other creatures.

The same is true of Jin, but the threat to him is not radiation water, but like a ghost chasing his former companion.

Alice!

It has been almost a month since he left asgat and was attacked by pedfeni. During this month, king was hiding in the wilderness. At the beginning, Alice didn't mean to kill him, and even helped him avoid several attacks from pedfeni. But not long after, pedfeni received a new task to leave, Alice talked to Kim in detail several times, by the way to help him take care of the injury.

But they didn't reach a consensus after all.

For Kim, it's too much for him to be held back by biford. He was born, raised and lived in this small town. People in the town are more or less related to King, especially old Peter. This man who looks like both grandfather and father runs through Jin's life. He is the biggest obstacle for Jin. King can lose anyone, but he can't forgive the man who killed old Peter.

If it wasn't Alice but someone else, Kim would have turned around.

But it was Alice again.

For this woman who always teases herself from time to time, Kim has a feeling that can't be explained clearly. Be closer to your friends and a little more distant from your lover. Alice is like an untouchable lover. No matter how close they are in real life, Kim knows they can't be together.

Because Alice is the forbidden of that man, and Alice often puts her brotherhood on Kim rather than the relationship between men and women. Kim is very clear about this, so he knows that he likes this old woman, but he won't admit it, even if only once.

In the first half of the month's negotiations, Alice hoped that king could stay away from this chaotic land. If you go to a coastal settlement and find a city to stay, you can get a good job with Jin's ability. And that's the territory of the dark Council, and King won't be easily assassinated and attacked by that adult.But Jin didn't compromise. He asked Alice to leave and leave the matter between him and the man alone. He can not fight against Alice, after all, Alice was just carrying out the order. But Jin would never let that man go, the one who gave him hope but brought him despair!

So on the premise of no reconciliation, the negotiation broke down. Alice began to grow cold and gave Kim five days to run for her life. As soon as five days passed, she began to hunt down Kim. In fact, king had expected such a result. The contradiction between them was Alice's feelings and loyalty to the man.

Once she can't persuade herself to leave, Alice will become ruthless, so as to wipe out any possible threat for that person.

At this time, Alice is the real ice queen.

Five days is not only Alice's last friendship for Kim, but also the time for Kim to make a choice. There is no doubt that king has not changed his choice. So five days later, Alice and Kim fight a fierce battle in the wilderness far away from asgart.

After nearly a day of fighting, king seized a hard won opportunity to escape. And in that battle, Alice didn't do her best. But then, Alice became more and more ruthless, more and more heavy. As Jin fled, he had less and less time to catch his breath. Alice is like a ghost, may appear at any time, which makes the already unbearable situation of gold more difficult.

The shadow of death is everywhere, and Kim is not surprised if he dies the next second.

It's just that old Peter's figure passes in his mind from time to time, which becomes the last driving force for Jin to stick to it.

It's 13 hours since she was last attacked, and Alice's attack frequency is getting higher and higher. Even if King had exhausted his means, he could not shake off the queen of frost behind him. Once, Kim even led Alice into a medium-sized base. But half an hour later, that base is history forever. What Kim got in exchange for was just 35 hours of rest.

In this chase game, time is the key.
