Armor Frenzy

Chapter 384: night journey

Xiao Yuan said in shock, "It's only three meters? That's too far!"

"Who knows, it seems that the southern worm is a little smaller than the northern worm. It is already a relatively large worm with a length of more than three meters. Generally, it is about two meters..." Shen Hao said.

"No bigger?" Ye Han was surprised.

"It's not that there is none. Let's put it this way, those who swim in the water are bigger than those that crawl on the ground, and those that crawl on the ground are bigger than those that fly in the sky. The largest flying insect on the Marrow River is less than one meter five in length." Shen Hao said.

Xiao Yuan was speechless for a moment. He didn't say anything about the giant cockroaches that are more than ten or twenty meters long in the north. Even the giant mantis giant ants can grow to more than four meters long. I heard that there are giant centipedes that are more than six meters long on Bang Island. Why? The giant insect in the south has shrunk so much?

"Instructor Ye, Nan Zong is small, is it related to the temperature?" the new team member who had not spoken for a while suddenly asked.

The new team member's name is Chi Wei, who has just been promoted from a student to an intern team member, and he will not be able to change his calling habit for a while.

"It's possible." Ye Han nodded, "Yes, the theory class didn't go in vain."

How to operate the power armor is only the main course of the Sports Academy. In addition to this, there are various theoretical courses, and the giant insect is also one of the main courses in the academy.

Shen Hao blinked his eyes suspiciously: "The temperature here is high, so the giant worm is small?"

"You can say the same." Ye Han smiled, "Strictly speaking, it has something to do with heat dissipation."

"I still don't understand." Shen Hao shook his head.

Ye Han explained: "Let's put it this way, insects are relatively low-level animals and do not have radiators such as sweat glands. The larger the body size, the more heat generated by exercise. The weather here is hot. The heat can kill the giant worm, so the small size of the southern worm is probably related to the temperature."

Shen Hao looked thoughtful: "It seems to make sense. The insects in the water don't need to dissipate heat, so they are bigger... But aren't there giant cockroaches more than 20 meters long in the north? How does that thing dissipate heat?"

"I don't understand that either." Ye Han shrugged, "But giant cockroaches are only active at night, maybe they are afraid of the heat."

"No, although there are no giant worms that are too big on the Marrow River, there are large giant worms in neighboring provinces and Southeast Asia. How can you explain this?" Shen Hao asked again.

"Maybe these giant insects have evolved some kind of heat dissipation ability. In a word, those who can survive can adapt to the environment, and those who can't adapt are dead." Ye Han laughed, "Let's just chat casually, Let Beidu study this kind of mess."

The gunshots outside the car had become very loud. Ye Han turned on the surveillance screen to check the situation outside the car. Unsurprisingly, he saw a machine gun turret firing, and the swirling tracer bullets flew into the dark night. Missed the target, anyway, the firing frequency is not low.

Not only were the machine gun towers firing, but several armored vehicles were parked on the roadside.

Ye Han asked curiously: "What does the machine gun tower use to determine the target orientation, is it the radar?"

Shen Hao replied: "Radar is responsible for positioning, and ultrasonic and optical photography are responsible for determining whether it is a giant worm."

"So complicated?" Xiao Yuan exclaimed.

"It's not so exaggerated, it's all low-power devices, and the detection distance is no more than one kilometer."

The armored vehicle drove past the fiercely firing city defense line, and Ye Han turned the camera on the roof to carefully observe the surrounding situation.

After driving more than 400 meters away from the defense line, a large mosquito suddenly appeared on the green screen. Before Ye Han could see the appearance of the giant mosquito, a tracer bullet had already hit the thorax of the giant mosquito, taking the giant mosquito as his chest. truncate.

The broken giant mosquito dragged its broken wings, like the seeds of a maple tree, falling while spinning.

Then an unnamed flying insect broke into the screen. The giant insect was hit by two bullets at the same time, and it shattered into three sections in the air.

Ye Han silently turned off the screen and stopped looking at the situation outside.

It is said that the scale of the insect disaster in the south is poor. He always thought that the giant insects in the south are scattered and unintelligible, but now he realizes that although the giant insects here are fighting each other, their scale is not much smaller than that in the north.

He looked at Shen Hao and asked, "How did Maru River survive when there was no defense system?"

"How can you stand up? If you don't go out at night, if you encounter bugs when you go out, you will admit that you are unlucky." Shen Hao said, "But there were really not so many bugs at that time."

Ye Han looked back at Suihe City. There are basically no street lights and landscape lights in the urban area, but there are still many lights in the buildings, and insects have phototaxis. If there is no light in the city, will the situation be better?

But he just thought about it, there are so many people in Suihe City, it is impossible not to think of this, and it is not his turn to worry about this outsider.

A few minutes later, the sound of gunshots could no longer be heard in the armored vehicles far away from the city of Suihe, but the distance was still a bit close. The last cement road I don't know where it leads~www.readwn.com~ The cement road has not been used for a long time. The road is full of dead branches and leaves, and weeds stubbornly stick their heads out of the cracks. The vegetation on both sides is much denser than that near the road, and there are many large buttressed trees more than ten meters high.

After leaving the road, Antonli turned off the lights as required, and drove carefully with the vision provided by the night vision device, but the dimly lit lights flickered in the forest from time to time, fluttering around like a ghost fire.

An Dongli asked curiously, "Comrade Shen, what's bright outside?"

Shen Hao smiled: "It's okay, that's a firefly, a giant one."

"And fireflies?" Xiao Yuan immediately became interested, "Captain, can you go out and have a look?"

"Be honest, I'll see you somewhere later." Ye Han glared at Xiao Yuan.

Wearing armor to get out of the top hatch, there is definitely no problem in safety, and it is impossible for giant insects to get into the car from the roof. The problem is that it can stop giant insects, but ordinary insects. If a few mosquitoes fly into the car, it will Oh no.

Xiao Yuan grinned in disappointment, leaned over to the screen and looked at it, but the night vision screen was full of green lights, and he didn't feel like he was a child at all.

Watching fireflies is more immersive and more atmospheric.

Shen Hao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll see you later."

"Are there many fireflies?" Ye Han asked.

"A lot, especially in the woods."

Ye Han sighed: "I learned it when I was in school when I was a child. It is said that the ancients grabbed a bag of fireflies to go home for lighting in order to study. If there were giant insects at that time, it would be enough for the scholar to grab one and go home."

"Are you kidding me?" Xiao Yuan said, "I've always wondered, how could it be possible to read the words on the book clearly until the fireflies light up more? It's strange that I'm too short-sighted to use this thing for lighting. What else is there? I read with Xueguang, is Xueguang very observant?"

Ye Han couldn't help laughing: "You kid, can't you bring your brain?" To be continued.
