Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 72: Frustrated

   Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao and others, then looked at Qiao Chu again:

   "Where is that laboratory?"

  Wearing a helmet and unable to see the expression on his face, Qiao Chu did not answer yet, the desolate and dull roar resounded through the sky again:

   "Woohoo!"

   This time, Shang Jianyao and others could clearly hear that the place where the roar came from was not far away, just a few streets behind the "Urban Wisdom Network Control Center".

   It was so huge and so loud, it shook Shang Jian Yao and others' ears buzzing, and their heads were dizzy.

   It seemed to come from the depths of everyone's heart, from the fearful memory that could not be removed, making Long Yuehong's legs tremble uncontrollably, causing Bai Chen to subconsciously tighten the scarf, with the force as if he was about to strangle himself.

   Jiang Baimian's body shuddered slightly, as if he was using all his strength to fight the fear. Shang Jian Yao shrank slightly, as if he was still a child.

   However, he quickly returned to normal. No, it is not normal. He smiled and looked excited.

   His thinking seemed to skip the word "fear" and came to "excitement".

   Of course, this is more because the huge roar of rough and desolation has ceased, and only the remaining sound and the roars of the ruins are echoing endlessly.

   At this time, Qiao Chu gave a low smile without any smile:

   "The laboratory is where the sound was made just now."

   Hearing this sentence, Jiang Baimian and others were shocked, thinking together:

The mysterious laboratory with a huge roar...From the destruction of the old world to the current hydroelectric power station...The ruins of the city that are regularly maintained...Part of the wires and equipment that can still be used today...Can force people to sleep Cat-shaped monsters...Nightmare horses that can create real nightmares and cause various serious consequences...Suspected of the existence of "higher unintentional people", there is no radiation pollution but there are many monsters in certain areas in the depths of the swamp...

   These information are connected together, and the truth seems to be close at hand and extremely terrifying.

   Jiang Baimian was a little excited while frightened.

   This is one of the reasons she formed the "Old Tune Team"!

   "I don't know if the research in that laboratory is related to the destruction of the old world..." Jiang Baimian said to himself.

   Qiaochu ignored this question and stepped out to cover the legs of the black metal frame:

   "It's time to power up."

   Jiang Baimian chased after him, and asked quite quickly:

   "Do you have a layout plan here?"

   "First go to the underground computer room to switch on, restore the power supply of this building, and then go to the power grid center on the 17th floor to complete the power on." Qiao Chu seems to have already figured out the situation of this "city intelligent network control center".

   Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and others didn't say much, and followed Qiao Chu wearing the exoskeleton device through the left side of the gate and into the courtyard.

   It is very spacious and the greenery is also very good. All kinds of abandoned cars are neatly parked in corresponding positions without blocking the road.

Clusters of tall or short, or fluffy or messy dark green plants are scattered around, shadowy, like a monster hiding in the dark, making Long Yuehong's body even more tense, seeming to respond at any time. Excitement.

   According to his own thinking, the group shouldn't enter the "Urban Intelligence Network Control Center" at all, and should not restore the power supply here, and try to open all the doors of that mysterious laboratory.

   Not to mention whether this will bring a new round of disasters to the already fragile human society on the dust, Long Yuehong feels that it is impossible for herself and others to bear the danger contained in the mysterious laboratory and this strange ruin.

   He didn't want to sacrifice at all, he didn't want to become an 80-month pension.

   In front of the building where the "Urban Wisdom Network Control Center" is located, there is a pool with muddy water and a lot of debris floating in it, but it is not as much as imagined.

   Under the faint moonlight and stars, Long Yuehong suddenly saw a black shadow flashing by in the water.

   "There is something!" He aimed there with a "Berger" assault rifle in horror.

   Qiaochu glanced back at him:

   "An ordinary fish."

   Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief, but the residual stimulation caused by this finally ignited the backlog of fear in his heart.

   "No, it's not ordinary! Don't ‘unintentional’ eat fish? I, I don’t want to go in! I give up! I will go back to the jeep and wait for you!" He said all his thoughts in one breath.

   At this moment, he actually felt that Qiao Chu was not that attractive either.

   Qiao Chu, wearing a helmet, was stunned for a second, before squinting his eyes.

   He silently raised the arm covering the exoskeleton device, and aimed at Long Yuehong with the weird silver rifle.

   Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen opened their mouths at the same time, ready to stop them, but they hesitated a little. They seemed to be caught in a fierce battle if they wanted to do it.

   Qiao Chu didn't give them a chance to react, and was about to pull the trigger.

   Suddenly, he found that his fingers could not be pulled back!

   Besides, his fingers can move flexibly in any direction.

   All he is missing seems to be pulling the trigger!

   Qiao Chu's gaze subconsciously crossed Long Yuehong and fell on Shang Jian Yao who was a little further behind.

   Shang Jian Yao bent slightly, as if he was breathing heavily.

   His eyes darkly responded to Qiao Chu's gaze, and he spoke with difficulty but seriously:

   "My mother said that even if she likes another person, she can't condone her ills."

  …………

   When Jiang Baimian fired a grenade at "Sleeping Cat", making a loud explosion.

   Somewhere in the ruins of the city, on a square with many sculptures.

   The mechanical monk Jingfa, dressed in yellow monk robes and red robes, stopped his movements and looked back at the place where the sound was coming from.

   There are several tattered female "unintentional" corpses in front of him.

   Not long after, the roar that vibrated the clouds sounded again in the direction of the explosion.

   As the red light in the electronic eyes flickered a few times, the mechanical monk Jing Fa gave up the surrounding corpses and ran towards the place where the sound came from.

  …………

   In the dark city ruins, a certain street, a certain house.

   Du Heng, a middle-aged beautiful man with a dark black robe, long hair of the same color and a beard around his mouth, muttered to himself in confusion:

   "Not here?"

   As soon as his voice fell, the explosion sounded from a place not too far away.

   Du Heng didn't have much reaction to this, but soon, the desolate and dull roar also sounded in that direction.

   "Is it over there?" Du Heng thought for a while and walked to the stairs.

  …………

   Inside the ruins, in a shop on the street.

   The blond Taoist Galoran was lying on a soft black leather chair, drowsy.

   It's a pity that she couldn't fall asleep and was awakened by a series of explosions and roars.

"Hey, the cultivation base is still not enough. Master can fall asleep peacefully next to the factory...That's all, since you are awake, let's go over as you please. I don't know if I can meet a free rider on the way..." He blamed himself.

   Now she uses dusty language even when she talks to herself.

   Then, Galoran slowly got up and walked towards the location of the roar.

  …………

   On the other side of the city ruins, there is a square with many equipment.

   A convoy of five cars is stopping here.

   Among the five vehicles, one is a gray-green armored vehicle.

   Next to the armored car, a mature man wearing a gray-green beret looked at the harvest and nodded in satisfaction.

"Brother Li, how long has it only been before we filled up all the vehicles. Or else, brothers are looking for vehicles that can be opened and repaired, and strive for one for each person?" A man with a shaved head came closer, rejoicing Said.

   Lin Li, the "hyena" known as Brother Li, looked around, his eyes slowly swept across the faces of the twelve or three core members, and saw that everyone was equally happy and excited.

   He has a very strong nose and a bulging forehead, so his looks are quite distinctive.

"It's okay." Lin Li nodded and agreed with the bald man's suggestion, "The main reason is that we haven't found a weapon that can effectively enhance our strength this time, or technical information that can be exchanged for good things from a big power. We have to prepare for the future, black There must be a big power behind Rat Town, and we must deal with it before they can figure out what happened."

   He was about to add a few more words, the explosion and roar sounded in the same direction one after another.

   listened quietly for a while, "Hyena" Lin Li smiled and said:

   "There seems to be something good over there.

   "Let’s go over and take a look, we will do it if we have the opportunity, and we will find something else if we don’t have a chance."

   This is the style of their bandit group all the time. It is like a group of hyenas who smell the carrion but do not risk approaching ~www.ltnovel.com~ only waiting for the opportunity in the distance.

   "Yes, Brother Li!" His core members were about to take turns to sleep, but they all stood up vigorously.

  …………

   Hearing Shang Jianyao's words, the corners of Qiao Chu's mouth moved slightly invisibly.

   Until then, Long Yuehong did not realize that Qiao wanted to kill herself.

   Suddenly, all the good things he had imagined before fell apart at the same time, making him truly return to "reality".

   "He, he..." Long Yuehong found out in horror that Qiao Chu was not a companion at all, not a person worthy of following, with great charm.

   After traveling this way, I was actually covered with lard.

   This is weird!

   Long Yue's red words were not finished yet, in Qiao Chu's golden eyes, circles of illusory and illusory ripples emerged.

   has decided to take action to stop Qiao Chu’s Jiang Baimian suddenly feeling a strong sense of frustration:

He clearly wanted to take Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong away from the dangerous area, but instead led them to the high-risk ruins; an ordinary field training that should have grown to this level is the team leader’s negligence; I had to give up my dream because of a mistake, and my body almost collapsed...

   I'm still dead...

   At this moment, Jiang Baimian was completely discouraged and gave up the struggle, just waiting to die.

  Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, and Shang Jianyao also had the same reaction, they were all frustrated to the point that they were unwilling to do anything, unwilling to say even a word.

   Joe did not attack at the beginning, and instead put away the silver rifle, his eyes were cold and the voice said softly:

   "Don't worry, it's all over."

   Long Yuehong and others who were trapped in a gloomy world seemed to have heard the angel's comfort.
