MTL - How to Feed an Abyss!-Chapter 100 go to the capital

The aircraft skimmed through the air.

Even at full speed, it will take 20 minutes to return to the "nest".

They had only been out of the "nest" for three or four hours before this happened, which is really unpredictable. Lu Tinghan tried to contact Chi Yongge, but at first Chi Yongge was able to report the situation, he said, there are a lot... rabbits are approaching. Soon, I don't know if the situation was critical, but he didn't respond.

Di Wen scolded in a low voice: "How could it be a rabbit at this time..."

She couldn't sit still at all, pacing back and forth on the aircraft, clenching her fists.

Adjutant Ning asked, "What happened to the rabbit?"

"..." Di Wen exhaled and explained, "Rabbits have strong reproductive ability, and they are also the most suitable infected creatures in the Gamma Abyss. They reproduce in large numbers like rodents." The corners of her mouth were tense, "Gamma Abyss Shouldn't..."

They were infected by Gamma Abyss.

If the Gamma Abyss stirs again...the mole may also return.

Mole people can survive because they can move underground.

But so are moles and other burrowing creatures, for whom they are the greatest threat.

The aircraft drove at full speed and saw the hills in the distance.

Countless rabbits surged, rushing through the long grass and up the hill. Such creatures should have been lovely, and the appearance of such a large group, covering the plain palely, only makes one's scalp tingle.

"Fucking monster—" Di Wen gritted his teeth.

Shi Yuan leaned against the glass and saw that they were like small bulldozers, with sharp teeth, and no grass grew in the places they passed. He watched helplessly as the long golden grass he liked was gnawed bare.

Time Yuan: qaq

Gunshots were faintly heard from under the hill, and the Mole Man was resisting. The intricate tunnels and dense sentry posts are their best defense; and Di Wen forced them to learn firearms and practice repeatedly, also for today.

The aircraft has laser weapons and machine guns. Lieutenant Ning turns on the cruise mode, and Douglas controls the weapons separately.

The rabbit sensed the threat and instinctively avoided the aircraft.

Lu Tinghan directed them. He stared intently at Rabbit Haiyang. As before, he had insight into the monster's thinking. The weapon accurately hit the direction of the rabbit's escape time and time again, forcing them to retreat, their eyes red.

Di Wen told everyone about the entrance of the "nest", and they deliberately drove the rabbit away from there. But there was a new movement in the "nest", there were fewer rabbits waiting for the entrance, and three weird robots slowly stood up from the soil.

Di Wen breathed a sigh of relief visibly.

Dirt and grass roots slipped from them, and the jet-black body metal seemed to swallow up the light.

Then, they shoot a searing light.

Shi Yuan happened to be looking at them, and his eyes hurt from the light. If he knew more about the military, he'd realize that they're a lot like the Imperial war droids, the Suns.

Originally, they dealt with the alliance.

The Mole Man collected these machines.

Wherever the laser passes, there is a smell of burning fur.

The rabbits screamed silently, retreated steadily under the double offensive, and finally dispersed completely.

The world is quiet.

Di Wen breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as the aircraft landed, everyone rushed to the "nest".

Rabbit carcasses are everywhere.

The Mole Man jumped up and down, holding an old gun, and yelled "Dewan!" "Dewan!"

Most of them are low-precision earthen guns. The distance is close, and killing rabbits is not a problem.

Di Wen responded, "I'm back, are you all okay?"

The Mole Man shook his fur and replied, "Dewin! We're fine!" He was quite energetic.

Only then did Di Wen show a relieved smile.

There were still some rabbits running away, Lu Tinghan shot all the rabbits in his field of vision to death with his hand/gun, one shot at a time.

There was a gray-and-white-spotted rabbit, fat-headed, chased by the Mole Man, and about to run into it—

"Bang!" There was a gunshot, and it fell sideways, its legs twitching non-stop.

At the exit of the tunnel, Chi Yongge's gun was smoking.

He said a little tiredly: "You are back."

Shi Yuan saw that there was a wound on Chi Yongge's hand, probably bitten by a rabbit, and it was wrapped in a thick bandage, and the blood was still gushing out.

Chi Yongge lowered the muzzle of the gun, took out another inhibitor, and stuck it on his forearm for injection.

The translucent liquid entered his body, causing a burning sensation, and the veins on his forehead bulged. Then he said: "This is the infection group of the Gamma Abyss."

…

The Lair is thrown into a celebration.

The Mole Man walks through the tunnel, running and cheering. Gerald and Morgan gave them post-battle trophies, throwing out chunks of raw meat—some straight from the rabbits.

They ate heartily and did not forget to greet: "Di Wen! Are you okay!"

"No." Di Wen replied hoarsely, "I'm fine, let's go eat."

The mole men walked away cheering.

The Mole Man was overjoyed, and they kept their home once again.

Others, however, were less sanguine.

Di Wen's face seemed to have an unresolved cloud. She lit the fire, set up a kettle to boil water, and said, "Doctor Chi, are you sure it's Gamma Abyss?"

"Yes." Chi Yongge replied, "I sampled and compared it, and it is it."

Di Wen was silent for a long time.

After a long time, she asked: "...Admiral Lu, have you always fought like this?"

Lu Tinghan raised his eyebrows politely.

"It's okay." Di Wen said, "I know now, it's not because the alliance has no one left you to be the general. You do have this ability, like...knowing what monsters are thinking." Her hand was unconsciously on her shirt Rubbing his horns, he murmured, "Now, what should we do? What should we do? It's back again."

Gamma Abyss is the Mole Man's eternal nightmare.

When the abyss is active, they have to move constantly and change places to live in order to be safer.

No one could answer her question.

The combat effectiveness of the aircraft, Lu Tinghan's ability, and the potential of inhibitors are of great help to the Mole Man, but the main city is at stake, and it is impossible for Lu Tinghan and the others to stay.

Di Wen naturally understood this.

In the next two days, the infection group from the Gamma Abyss came twice again, one was a rabbit, and the other was a creature suspected of being a vole. Fortunately, the scale is not large, and it has survived with the efforts of everyone. The infection monitor on the aircraft has been alarming, and the Gamma Abyss has really come alive.

On the second night, Shi Yuan was tending his tail in the small room of the "nest", while Lu Tinghan beside him was cleaning his pistol/gun.

A voice came from the tunnel outside: "Admiral Lu, are you here?"

It was Di Wen's voice.

"I'm here, what's the matter?" Lu Tinghan said, and he dimmed the lights.

In came the old, ugly woman, hunched over. In the dim light, the furrows on her face were obvious.

She said hoarsely: "Admiral, I have something to tell you... I can't go with you."

Shi Yuan was confused.

Lu Tinghan was not surprised: "Because of the Gamma Abyss?"

"Yes." Di Wen sighed deeply, "I—I can't leave them behind." She paused for a moment, her expression almost struggling, "I don't want to delay you any longer. Others don't understand the distribution of the city, I will as soon as possible Mark it on the map for you, and then, and then take a look, when you want to go."

"...I see." Lu Tinghan nodded and said, "The Alliance still appreciates your help."

Di Wen clenched his old hands tightly, and said: "I want to go back too. Mr. Gerald and I were both born in Leon, which is our home. We often talk about Leon and the city with other people, Dorothy loved these stories best."

She said that there are houses in the city, and steel and concrete can bring a sense of security; she said that the long streets are lively, the squares are wide, and even the small streets and alleys are unique; Lin Lin, but besides cities, there are towns and villages, those places are equally beautiful and nostalgic.

she said, that's

is real life.

The mole people listened to her stories and described sights they had never seen before, with anticipation in their eyes.

"I didn't expect that General Lister was still alive and retreated to Dunton." Di Wen smiled dryly, "Maybe he is really still alive, maybe you really heard his 'echo'. "

Words cannot describe her tone.

Regret and entanglement, reluctance and sadness.

Shi Yuan suddenly remembered that Di Wen looked at the distance on the hill that evening and said that she wanted to go home, and that was the same tone.

Family.

He has heard the word many times.

Humans have a soft spot for it.

He Yu, who kidnapped him, tried his best to go back to the city, to see his daughter and touch her black hair; countless people marched against the euthanasia bill, and those who protested could not go home; the monster also wanted to go home, The abyss comes from beyond the stars, perhaps at the very end of the universe, there really is their hometown; then, the memory returns to the day when he and Lu Tinghan first met, the young man came across the snow and saw the sea of ​​flowers, holding his hand, Show him the pictures of the city, the long street, the sunset, the smoke from the kitchen...

He said this is his home and he must go back.

And then what?

According to others, Shi Yuan let Lu Tinghan see the way when he came - Shi Yuan didn't quite remember this incident, at that time he just wanted to let Lu Tinghan go back to the place he liked.

Now, the monster woman says the same thing.

Shi Yuan didn't understand what he meant.

He wanted to stay with Lu Tinghan, wherever Lu Tinghan went, he would go there.

He likes the gleaning city with golden wheat fields, Fengyang city full of windmills, and the vast main city, but he only likes it. He guesses that the love of human beings for their homeland is deeper and deeper, and it must not be replaced.

Lu Tinghan said: "When we arrive in Dunton, we will find a way to contact you."

"Okay, I know." Di Wen said in a low voice, "The journey is difficult and dangerous, I should be with you..."

"I can understand." Lu Tinghan said, "If I were you, I would make the same choice."

Di Wen was silent for a while, and said: "I'll go to the aircraft, hurry up."

Together they returned to the aircraft.

Di Wen held a tattered and incomplete handwritten map, and kept marking the location of the city on the holographic map. The handwritten map is not accurate enough. She often circles an area of ​​several square kilometers and marks that there are cities here.

She sighed again: "If only I could go with you. If some landmarks are still there, I can recognize them."

"Don't be too entangled." Lu Tinghan told her, "You are doing what you should do."

"Yes," Di Wen murmured, "Yes."

She bent over and slid across the screen. Shi Yuan noticed that there were many traces of revisions on the handwritten map, and there were even lines of different colors. Presumably, Di Wen had planned countless times on how to find a livable city.

Two days later, under the attack of several waves of infected groups, Di Wen completed the labeling.

The Mole Man began to prepare for the transfer, and to go to other places, the aircraft should also set off.

This is their last night in the "nest".

Still surrounded by a small fire, root tea is still boiled in the old kettle.

Countless mole men crawled around, busy packing their bags. The long wandering is about to begin, and this time the fluctuations in the Gamma Abyss are more violent than before.

Everyone sat around the orange-red flame, all silent.

Holding a cup of root tea, Shi Yuan saw hesitant, hesitant, and blank faces.

He turned his head again, seeing that Lu Tinghan was still as calm as ever, and his handsome facial features had not wavered in the slightest, he was relieved again.

They ate canned soybeans and dehydrated vegetables.

Di Wen asked, "Where's Dorothy? Where did she go?"

Dorothy has been following Chi Yongge for the past few days, besides, she should show up as parting is imminent.

She was obsessed with injecting inhibitors. Now that Chi Yongge is leaving too, there is no way to continue to observe her situation. It is too dangerous to inject her rashly, so she can only cancel the plan.

Chi Yongge replied: "I have spent hours

Did not see her. "

"Probably busy with packing," said Gerald. "We'll have to go soon."

"This stinking girl..." Di Wen didn't speak again.

After dinner, Shi Yuan and the others were going back to the aircraft.

The two sides bid farewell to each other.

Although he didn't make any friends, Shi Yuan still liked "The Lair" and the Mole Man. He took Lu Tinghan's hand and turned around every step of the way.

Before they could take a few steps, there was a commotion.

Swish, swish, swish... that was the sound of many mole people walking through the tunnel. Countless pairs of eyes flickered in the darkness. Immediately afterwards, the mole people got out and squeezed into this small space. They are afraid of light and dare not get too close to the fire in the center, so they stand at the junction of light and darkness.

"Di Wen!" "Di Wen!" "Di Wen!"

They still yelled.

"Are you hungry?" Di Wen said, "Wait for me to get the meat."

She walked slowly towards one of the tunnels, however, the Mole Man stopped her.

"Dewin!" they yelled, "Dewan! Go to Dunton!"

Di Wen was surprised, and immediately understood: "Did Dorothy tell you? She said it?"

"Yes yes!" the Mole Man told her, "Dorothy also said that you were going to go with the guests!" Let's go together, we'll be fine!"

"No," Di Wen said, "The underground monsters are coming, I won't leave you guys behind."

"We're all right!" said the Mole Man again. "Mr. Gerald and Mr. Morgan will lead us. We'll have plenty of things to protect ourselves!"

Thanks to De Wenwen and Gerald's decades of efforts beyond ordinary people, they are treated as human beings, and they have learned language, cooking and guns... This is the most basic ability to survive, and it is also the inheritance of civilization.

"Dewin!" they yelled again, "Go find Leon, find General Lister! Then take us to live in the city!"

Di Wen looked at them and said: "The city is not as important as 'alive'. Yes, Mr. Gerald and I have talked about the city many times with you, and we also mentioned Dunton. Maybe, maybe we talked about the city too beautifully." , After so many years, they should have changed long ago, they are all ruins. Besides, we have survived living in the nest for so many years, so what's wrong?"

She took a deep breath: "I will not leave. I am satisfied enough to maintain the status quo. Forget about the city for now." She quickly glanced at Lu Tinghan and the others, "If they can find the city, they will tell Ours. If, indeed, we can find it..."

"You can't keep the status quo forever, can you?" A crisp voice came.

Devin paused.

Shi Yuan saw that Dorothy came out from among the mole men.

She still had a small yellow flower pinned to her head, and said, "Mom, don't you want us to live in a concrete house with classrooms, study rooms and kitchens?"

Devin: "Dorothy, you think too much..."

"Too naive?" Dorothy interrupted her, "You don't really think that we can hide for a lifetime, do you? The Gamma Abyss has started to stir again. Last time we survived by luck, what about this time? Wait until it's completely restless Now, can we really survive? Relying on these earthen guns, relying on these tunnels, relying on those shabby robots? I don’t think so!”

She continued: "Food and ammunition are getting less and less, otherwise we would not have ventured so far to go to the princess's warehouse. There is no production line, and if we drag it further, there will always be a day when we run out of ammunition and food."

Dorothy looked at Di Wen, and said firmly: "Now—there is still time, the 'Deep Dive' project is our only hope, and if it succeeds, we can really live on. Besides," she briskly said She smiled slyly, "Mom, you are really not that 'indispensable'. We have learned a lot, and those who can survive, at least, can persist until you find Dun."

"So, follow your friends in the League and tell them where our magnificent cities are."

The fire was burning, and there was a loud "crack!"

Di Wen was at a loss, and for a moment

I don't know what to say.

Countless mole men surged, all looking at her, looking forward to her.

They said: "You always say that cities, towns and villages are the homes of human beings, and we should not live in 'nests'. Go and find our homes!"

"..." I don't know if it was Shi Yuan's illusion, but he felt that there was a layer of mist in Di Wen's cloudy eyes.

She clenched her hands tightly.

After a long time, she said: "...Okay, you wait for me. I will take you home."

The next day, Di Wen boarded the aircraft.

She also took 10 Mole People with her. According to her, they are best at exploring the underground, which can save a lot of time in searching for cities.

Among them was a Mole Man who was willing to try the inhibitor—Chi Yongge told him that he could record the effects along the way. If it works, it will be able to help other Mole People in time.

"However, I want to emphasize again," Chi Yongge said, "life may be in danger."

"It's all right," the man replied, "I want to see the sun."

Dorothy, Gerald, and Morgan stood between the Mole Man and waved them good-bye.

Soon, the Molemen will have to move to a new location too.

As the aircraft took off, Shi Yuan lay by the window, watching the hills get farther and farther away, and finally submerged in the hazy morning light.

The weather in the empire was bad, and the aircraft was slow and fast, and it was delayed for a long time.

Along the way, they inspected 2 large cities and 3 small cities, all of which were severely damaged and unsuitable for living.

A few days later, they approached the area of ​​influence of the Delta Abyss.

The characteristic of Delta's infection is "thunderstorm". Coupled with the empire's already rainy and typhoon climate, it seems like a catastrophe is approaching. Thunderstorms continued, the sky was dark, and the sky was covered with black clouds. Snake-like lightning tore apart the heaven and earth, blazing flashes, and rolling thunder that exploded.

The rain curtain was so thick that it seemed solid, and it was rushing violently. Even an aircraft of this level felt a slight sense of stagnation when traveling.

What was even more frightening was that in the dark clouds and deep in the rain, there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes coveting.

They dare not fly too high or too fast, so they can only move forward at a low speed.

The thunder was so loud that people's ears would ring for two or three seconds if they got too close, and it was impossible to guard against. Even the Mole Man started cursing.

Shi Yuan was so frightened that his tail exploded several times, and he spent a lot of time every day taking care of his scales.

At night, Lu Tinghan lay down with him and said, "There is something called noise-canceling headphones. If you wear them, you won't be able to hear anything."

"Really?" Shi Yuan's eyes lit up, "That's great, where are you?"

Lu Tinghan was silent for a while: "It was in the dream."

Shi Yuan: "..."

Lu Tinghan received Shi Yuan's death stare, and quickly explained: "It was not produced a long time ago, and the only ones left are only used by helicopter pilots."

"Okay." Shi Yuan regretted, "Then I'll cover it with the quilt."

There was another thunderclap, and the rain hit the glass like a waterfall. He covered his ears with the quilt, Lu Tinghan stretched out his hand to help him press it tightly, and the two embraced and fell asleep.

That night, Shi Yuan had a dream again.

Or the monsters on and off the stage, all watching him.

"What do you want?" Shi Yuan asked for the umpteenth time, "Do you want eternal life? I won't do that."

no answer.

Shi Yuan found that there were more "audience" in the audience.

There is the Queen of the Purple Lantern, the Blue Butterfly, the various infected swarms that he froze in the main city, and other monsters that he has never met before. Mighty, they are silent in the dark.

look at him.

The silent, eternal gaze.

They were still waiting for him.

"...!"

Shi Yuan woke up suddenly and sat up from the bed.

There was still thunder and lightning outside the window, and it was extremely noisy.

He woke up Lu Tinghan, the man's hand was still on his waist, and he asked sleepily, "Woke up?"

"No, it's not." Shi Yuan was stunned for a while, "Didn't you hear that?"

"

What do you hear? "

"Someone is calling me." Shi Yuan said.

How can there be people in such a place? Lu Tinghan said, "You may be dreaming."

"I heard it." Shi Yuan said.

He looked into the distance, and the black clouds hung low, as if the sky had collapsed.
