Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 143 Do you understand what a weird mechanism means?

The two men were dressed the same as Cui Mao in Zhou Yi's memory, both wearing soft armor and black clothes. Their muscles were clearly defined, and it was obvious that they had been exercising for a long time.

One of them said, "We are the 9th Squadron of Tianjin Knights. The one who has changed is our captain Yao Yuan. My name is Fang He, and the one next to me is Zhao Qiang. We learned about your situation from the 3rd Squadron."

"You are here to look for Feixing as well, right? We are willing to share all the information, we just hope you can help save our captain."

More sources of information are always good.

Zhou Yi said: "I'll try, but I can't guarantee the results."

Fang He and Zhao Qiang immediately showed joy on their faces.

“As long as you take action, your chances will be much greater.”

Then Fang He told them about their experiences.

The Ninth Squadron took on the Xingshu bounty mission on behalf of the Tianjin Knights, and four knights were responsible for carrying it out. In order to reduce the load and march quickly, they did not bring knight guards with them and drove here as soon as possible.

But before they reached the shore, the enhanced body of one of the knights suffered a severe rejection reaction, leaving him weak and powerless, so he had to stay on the ship and wait for pick-up.

The remaining three people entered the main island.

Captain Yao Yuan, Fang He and Zhao Qiang first visited the local indigenous people and learned that the flying star fell near the rotating park.

He noticed that no one had set foot in the Shadow Building yet, so he led the team to light a bonfire below.

This move is to remind newcomers that Tianjin Knights are already conducting investigations here.

Later, some mechanical knights and bounty knights came over, but after they saw them, they just observed them for a while and left.

The special mechanism of the forbidden ruins makes everyone afraid to clash, and the first mover has a great advantage. If a region is set with traps, or the local dangers are deliberately concealed, latecomers will easily fall into a disadvantageous situation.

So everyone remained restrained.

Fang He said: "The current situation is basically that we are in the Shadow Building, the Mechanical Knights are checking the Mobile Colossus, the Bounty Knights are stationed around the Forbidden Alien, and the Dead Sea Knights are in the Rotating Garden..."

Zhou Yi was puzzled: "You said the Knight of the Dead Sea is in the rotating garden?"

"Yes. They greeted us when they came. There weren't many of us. For something like this, not even a large number of people will be helpful."

Fang He said: "Only the Mechanical Knights brought a lot of equipment and a lot of people, and their main target was the aliens."

Zhou Yi felt strange.

He and Qin Xie searched in Happy Valley for a long time, and there was indeed no one else inside.

But more on that later.

Zhou Yi signaled Fang He to continue.

Tianjin Knight recalled: "When we got here, the captain led us to check each floor."

"This is a very old Dead Sea alien, severely damaged, with no signs of self-repair. It did not stop or reject us. We checked every room and only found some birds and mice, nothing else."

“But when you get closer to the top floor, it becomes a different story.”

A babbling sound suddenly rang in Zhou Yi's ears.

A man holding a little girl walked past her and was talking to his daughter.

There was another woman walking towards Zhou Yi in front, passing through his body and continuing to walk out of the building.

Suddenly, everyone in the entire building came out.

The residents walked along the corridor, chatting, eating melon seeds, laughing, and whispering, and all kinds of sounds intertwined.

News broadcasts and music could be heard in the corridor.

Zhou Yi and the two knights seemed out of place.

Fang He didn't seem surprised. He looked around and said, "This alien can create phantoms. We were shocked at first, but later we found that they were harmless, just some shadows that looked very much like real people."

Zhou Yi nodded slightly.

Fang He pointed at himself and his comrades next to him: "I am good at reconnaissance, Zhao Qiang is good at operating equipment, and the one with the strongest comprehensive ability is the captain. The captain asked us to meet on the 12th floor, and he will go to the 13th floor alone first, because there is a strong energy reaction on the top floor."

"We waited at the stairs for half an hour, and then we saw the captain stumble down. He looked unwell and couldn't speak. His enhanced body had mutated and his entire body was red and swollen... We quickly put him on the emergency bed."

He pointed to the metal box next to him.

Zhou Yi asked the two: "Can we open it now?"

"can."

Zhao Qiang, who had been silent, responded. He unfastened the four locks of the iron box and pulled open the two iron doors on both sides.

A lot of icy fog rose up from inside.

Inside the box lay a pale-skinned man, wearing only black clothes, with his eyes tightly closed, and his face covered with blood vessel lines. It seemed that something was affecting his blood system, causing his facial blood vessels to sometimes become densely packed, and sometimes slowly disappear.

Yao Yuan was tied to the emergency bed with a belt and kept sleeping in a low-temperature environment.

Zhou Yi noticed that there was an abnormal bulge on his chest. The bulge was slowly moving on the surface of his body, as if some kind of parasitic beast was moving inside his body.

Zhao Qiang pointed to the distant bulging chest and said in a deep voice: "The captain's enhanced body organs are skin, on the chest and back. The light print structure implanted in the skin can allow him to sense many subtle changes and prevent problems in advance."

"But it is also for this reason that the alienated skin is tearing the muscles, trying to absorb the body's strength and then leave the body. In this environment, once the enhanced body leaves, the captain will definitely die."

His face was filled with worry. "The rejection reaction of the enhanced body is at most redness, swelling and pain. This situation is already a serious alienation. The source is on the 13th floor. I don't know if there are flying stars there, but there must be a radiation source, which causes the enhanced bodies that are close to a certain distance to experience strong stress."

"But the captain forbade us to go over there. He said before that we should not go up there unless he returned safely from there. Whether in terms of the strength of our enhanced bodies or our endurance, we are not as good as the captain."

Zhou Yi asked: "Why don't you take him away from here, away from the radiation source?"

Zhao Qiang said sullenly, "Because we are not sure what the radiation source is."

"Some radiation sources will further accelerate the reaction if you move away from them. We dare not take this gamble. We contacted the rear, and the rescue team will take at least 11 days to arrive. The captain will not be able to survive until then."

"We have contacted other knights here, but they are also unable to do anything...so we are in a dilemma now."

Understand the general situation.

Zhou Yi said, "I'll go up and take a look. You guys stay here."

"Please be careful on your way." Two knights were guarding the ground floor.

Zhou Yi walked up the stairs, passing through the many ghosts of the past here.

He placed his fingers on the railing and activated the synchronization of consciousness through energy input.

"Excuse me, but what's going on on the 13th floor?"

An old man's voice rang in my head: "Hahahaha, the building is empty, the building is empty, go, go, go, all go."

"Hello, can you hear me?"

Then the voice changed to that of an old lady: "Why did you come back? Look at this building, it's old and run-down. It can't be sold and it's getting smellier and smellier."

"..."

Then a man's voice: "Let's go, let's go."

A little girl said, "Daddy, I don't want to go."

This was the first architectural life that Zhou Yi was completely unable to communicate with.

The tube building only records the voices left by the former residents, repeating the past voices like a tape recorder, just like a mysterious old man who only talks to himself.

Zhou Yi was a little bit at a loss.

It seems that although architectural life is theoretically immortal, it can also develop conditions close to Alzheimer's disease or mental abnormalities.

But in this respect, they are more like life.

Zhou Yi walked up the spiral staircase.

The entire building is an octagonal circular corridor, like a huge atrium. After the building was deserted, most of the area was in the shadows.

The coming and going of people did not add any vitality to the place, but instead made it seem even more eerie and deserted.

Stepping onto the stairs leading to the 13th floor, Hong Falcon suddenly said, "There is a strong death ray radiation reaction up there. The radiation source is very clear. There will be certain risks."

Zhou Yi switched to Unit 2 form and let it withstand the first round of damage.

Come to the corridor on the 13th floor.

Zhou Yi immediately felt that something was wrong and that his body was suffering continuous damage.
-
1-
1
……

Is it damage that ignores defense?

Zhou Yi switched back to his original body.

The damage numbers continued, but they were no longer effective under high-intensity defense.

Then it's okay.

It seems that the lethality of this radiation is limited.

Then Zhou Yi saw that there was light in a room on this floor.

He walked all the way.

There was a little boy of about seven or eight years old in the room. He was barefoot and wearing adult clothes that reached down to his knees.

The little boy's right hand released a fiery red light, and a ball of bright red high-temperature fluid slowly took shape in his hand. He kneaded it slowly, and finally it became a black cup with a smooth surface.

Zhou Yi noticed that the stone tables and stone display cabinets in the room were filled with all kinds of cups, some smooth, some rough, in brown, black, red and yellow, etc.

The other person seemed to like the cup.

"Have you seen enough?"

The little boy turned his head slowly, his eyes dark, "Why did you come here? You always force me. Do you know you are almost dead?"

Zhou Yi smiled slightly: "Come up to take a look and find something by the way."

[Alert] From the perspective, a dangerous red color appears on the little boy's body, indicating that he is a Class B life.

From the outside, the other party is completely human.

Red Falcon warned: "Zhou, it's a mutant, be careful."

"What are mutants?"

Before he got an answer, the little boy in front of him looked surprised. He walked over quickly and looked Zhou Yi up and down.

"No, something's wrong... Why aren't your organs affected by me?"

"Under normal circumstances, shouldn't you be transformed by my radiation and then fester and die? Even an enhanced person can't have no reaction..."

The little boy looked puzzled: "How come you are fine?"

A gleam of determination suddenly appeared in his eyes: "You are not human! There is something wrong with you!"

Zhou Yi: “…”

You're the one with the problem, kid.

"Since you are not human, you don't have to be polite." The mutant child's eyes became fierce, and flames rose from his body, rushing towards Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi was a little surprised.

It turns out that prisons don’t care about the living things in buildings?

He snapped his fingers.

"Mic master, music!"

Then the boy's eyes suddenly became dull, and the fire in his body instantly went out. He stood there in a daze, his mind blank.

Zhou Yi stood with his hands behind his back.

Do you understand what a weird mechanism is?
