Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 461 Food
"I only have four compressed biscuits left, and there are still a lot of energy crystals left." Layton groped for a long time on himself, and finally took out four crushed biscuits from the bag hanging on his chest. The end of the biscuit.

"Me too." Ivan stretched out his hand, with five energy bars lying in his palm, "I've also finished the vodka."

"I have a big appetite... I only have the last piece of compressed biscuit left." Zhuoligetu said with some embarrassment, "But I still have two pieces of dried beef jerky. These things are very hungry, and they are only half the length of a thumb. A short section can last for a long time... Do you want to try it?"

As he spoke, he took out two long strips with a pitch-black surface that seemed to have a metallic luster from his backpack, and handed one of them to the hound.

"This thing...is beef? Why have I never seen this kind of beef jerky before?" The hound looked at the long object in his hand, and said suspiciously, "The texture does look a bit like muscle tissue...but it's also Is it too hard, can this thing really be eaten? I always feel like it will break my teeth."

"It can be eaten. This thing has existed in ancient times. The Mongolian name is 'Bule thorn'. When Genghis Khan led his army to attack the continent of Europe, he used this thing as military rations...but now it is only us Mongolians. The descendants of the tribe can make this kind of food."

The hound tried to saw off a small piece with the steel teeth on the back of the military dagger, put it in his mouth and bit it—"It seems to be really edible...it's as hard as a rock, by the way, Ke Lan, how much supplies do you have left? "

"Not much." Ke Lan opened the satchel on his waist and took a look, "A bag of self-heating army rations, four compressed biscuits, and a bottle of 'blue capsule'."

The "blue capsule" that Ke Lan talked about is a special drug developed by Maya Bio. It will not produce any sense of hunger, and its physical strength and energy will not be affected... But this thing can only be regarded as a hormone in essence, and cannot provide nutrition and energy to the human body.

It is said to be a "meal replacement", but it does not really replace food.

This is just an emergency measure, no one would eat it unless it is absolutely necessary.

Its main function is actually to shield the brain from the perception of hunger and squeeze the energy stored in the body. Once the effect of the medicine wears off, the feeling of hunger and fatigue will be doubled, and the side effects are even more severe than those powerful stimulants.

And because the blood sugar level is too low, most people who take the blue capsules will faint directly within ten seconds after the effect of the medicine ends. woke up.

This is a hole card, a hole card that can be played when the ammunition and food are exhausted, but if you can't get out of the desperate situation in the last 48 hours, you can only usher in the end of death.

"I still have two bags of self-heating military rations and two compressed biscuits." Akira Asano said.

"I still have quite a few here." Valentina got out of Valkyrie's cockpit, carrying a backpack in one hand. From the shape, you can guess that the food inside is compressed biscuits and canned food.

These foods are emergency supplies prepared by Ke Lan and the others, and they were placed in the cockpit of Valkyrie before departure-for a person, these foods are enough to last for nearly half a month, but if they are used If it is spread evenly on everyone's head, it will be pitifully small.

"Tsk... even if I save this little food, I'm afraid it can only last for three days." The hound turned his head and looked at the deep and dark tunnel in the distance, "I don't know that we will be trapped here for a few days, Then don’t starve to death.”

"It's better to starve to death than to be killed by the Alpha's mechanism?" Layton muttered.

"Fart, that's because you kid has never been hungry!" The hound immediately glared at him and cursed back, "There was a mission before, I led the vanguard to chase too deep, and plunged into the desert. The large army got out of touch, and then was cut off by those smart beasts, we can only use the terrain to build fortifications, and stand by for help... Do you know how much rations we carried with us at that time?"

"How much?" Layton asked.

"As far as two meals are concerned, one of them is used for emergency." The hound said, "That was originally a quick mission. The scheduled combat time is from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm. After work is over, you can return to the base. Just in time for the stew dinner... Blame the damn intelligence department... There are nearly three times the number of native creatures in that area than they told us, and we have been moving and fighting since we airborne, waiting until the sight can After all the beasts I saw were cleaned up, they deviated from the original marching route long ago."

"Then can't you call for air support? Let the transport plane come to pick you up, no matter how bad it is, it's good to drop some supplies by air." Layton wondered.

"Do you think we don't want to? Do you know what target we were going to eliminate in that mission?" The Hound rolled his eyes at him, "It's the Lost Hound!"

Lost dogs are a group of indigenous creatures that are similar in size to large dogs on the earth. The reason why they were given such a strange name is because their bones have extremely strong magnetism. When a large number of lost dogs When dogs gather together, a large disturbance magnetic field is formed. Electronic equipment and positioning devices will be disturbed by the magnetic field, disorienting people who enter their territory.

"No wonder, what happened later?" Layton couldn't help asking—although he also served in the field force, he was not a combat unit, but a logistics support department.He had only heard this kind of battle stories from the soldiers who had returned from the first-line combat troops to rest, and he had never experienced it himself.

"I'm so hungry that I can't help it. I can only pick up the corpses of those animals to eat." The hound said, chewing hard on the "Buller thorn" that had been in his mouth for a long time but was still not softened by saliva. "The meat of these beasts is not only radiated, but also fucking poisonous. It's sour and sour. Even if it's cooked, it's hard to swallow. Many soldiers vomited and diarrhea after eating it... But there's no way. In order to survive, we can only Close your eyes and swallow down your throat."

"But our situation is even worse now." Ivan looked around, "At least you still had lost dog corpses to pick up and eat, but this tunnel only has metal and concrete... Oh, and those who don't know The lighting fixtures are made of whatever material, but whatever it is, I don't think our stomachs can digest this kind of thing."
