Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 162: Sea of Gems
On the deck of Poseidon sat Zhou Yi and all the members of the scavenging team.

After four hours of underwater voyage, the submarine arrived at the street discovered by Xie Xun.

It can be vaguely seen that some of the shorter houses have only their roofs exposed, and many buildings are buried under the dust.

Xie Xun pointed his claws at a nearby half-buried shop and said, "Chairman, this is where we found the gold and silver."

Zhou Yi looked around. Although there was dust outside, the interior decoration was still very familiar to him. The long glass cabinets were connected together, and there was the words "China Gold" on the back wall.

All the gold and silver inside had been taken out, and the scavenging team tried their best to maintain the original state of the inside without causing any damage.

Zhou Yi found two mobile phones in the jewelry store and fed them both to the fighting species.

There is also a business license hanging on the wall near the inside.

It says "residence" above.

[First floor of RT-Mart, Jiaotong Street, HC District, CQ City]

RT-Mart.

Supermarket!

Zhou Yi suddenly perked up.

There are quite a few shops here, maybe you can find the Rolex that Wuyi needs.

Zhou Yi led the scavenger team to search carefully and indeed found the entrance to the building nearby.

Many areas inside RT-Mart were blocked by sand and dust, making entry and exit very difficult. Fortunately, the scavenging team was very experienced and was very skilled in both simple cleaning and digging.

Zhou Yi felt strange when he saw this.

According to his experience, the buildings at the bottom of the Dead Sea will be covered with dead light, forming a protective layer that makes it almost impossible for outside dust to enter and at most accumulate on the surface.

But this RT-Mart is not like that.

The only possibility is that someone has been here before and destroyed the light film. The person who entered must have come in and out frequently, otherwise the amount of sand and dust would not have accumulated to such a large amount.

Hong Shun also agreed with his point of view: "There are many signs of violent damage here, including the door, windows and ventilation ducts. The friction marks are very obvious. The dust entered through these passages."

Zhou Yi walked in and found that the first and second floors of the mall were in a mess.

The computer store was in a mess and full of parts. More than half of the home appliances in the appliance section were missing. The clothing store, maternity and baby store, and restaurant were also looted. There were obvious dragging marks on the ground and many debris left.

He went down to the basement floor.

This was usually the place with the largest customer flow in the past, but now all the vegetables and meat in the food area have been killed and disappeared, leaving only some well-packaged ready-to-eat foods.

Many items on the shelves were missing.

Zhou Yi could see from the remaining papers that those things included hammers, scissors, knives, screwdrivers, wire cutters, wrenches, tool sets, etc., mostly tools.

Although the Rolex was not found, there were boxes of various beverages, including beer, the favorite of the scavengers. They worked very hard to carry the goods, and their excitement was visibly evident.

In addition, there are a large number of instant noodles and instant rice, biscuits, preserved fruits, cereals and other foods that are easy to store and eat. A number of common medicines are also available in a pharmacy.

For Zhou Yi personally, the biggest gain is the mobile phone.

In the digital store of RT-Mart, he found many unopened mobile phones and fed them to the fighting species one by one.

A total of 256 mobile phones were used.

The number after 【Radio】becomes (4/4).

Zhou Yi took out the stressor he carried with him and collected it with a radio.

Voices in the head.

"17, 16..."

It was that crisp sound again.

"Return begins."

Channel 4 doesn't seem to be any different, just a little better sound quality.

"1."

The countdown is over.

Zhou Yi suddenly felt dazed.

When he came to his senses again, he found himself in a strange scene he had never seen before.

A large number of crystal gems of various shapes slowly rise and fall on the ground like waves and water. They are square, triangular, round, spiral, cone, gourd, insect-shaped... shining with blue and white radiant luster.

The whole world was a cold, whitish color, with nothing else but the flowing ocean of gems.

Zhou Yi discovered that he could rotate his perspective.

He looked down and saw that he was also made of gems, but he had turned into a pillar of gems.

Zhou Yi tried to use the gems to put together a hand. This hand was also able to spread out the five fingers, clench them into a fist, and move each finger deftly.

This sea of ​​gem is closely related to me.

It is a part of my body. Zhou Yi tried to raise his vision further. He saw that he was on a huge sphere made up of many gems. Countless gems were flowing and sparkling like the ocean.

It was dark outside.

In addition to himself, there are other gemstone spheres, but different individuals have different luster and sizes. The gemstone world where Zhou Yi lives is considered small in it.

Just as he was about to try further, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.

Just like eating too much ice cream in one go, the stinging pain in the brain makes it impossible to think.

He could only grit his teeth and endure it.

After a long time, the numb pain gradually subsided.

Zhou Yi found himself back in RT-Mart supermarket.

Xie Xun and other scavenger team members looked at him very nervously.

He waved his hands, his voice a little dry: "I'm fine, continue with your work."

The weapon masters then resumed their work.

Zhou Yi looked at the stressor fixed by gel in his hand. Upon closer inspection, it looked like a piece of debris peeled off from a gem.

He thought in his mind.

Channel 4 can not only collect signals, but also go a step further and directly connect with the celestial signals, so it can synchronize itself with the return countdown and enter the space where the celestial beings are.

and so.

The strange spherical world composed of gems is most likely the real body of the celestial being.

The stressor is part of the body of the Celestial Gem, implanted into the external body of the wasteland, thus forming a result similar to the synchronization of consciousness.

The situation became much clearer.

Zhou Yi turned on the radio again, ready to test his speculation.

As a result, he found that his abilities could not be expanded.

The radio was temporarily unusable, and the physical fatigue brought about by the battle was also transmitted to Zhou Yi, making him feel as if he had also experienced a great battle and consumed a huge amount of energy.

At this time Zhou Yi also calmed down.

If I just entered the body of a celestial being temporarily through the stressor, that is, the body of Li Mo's former boss "Cup", and the other party did not use the body for some reason, I may not be so lucky next time.

Channel 4 should be used with caution.

The upstreamers may know something.

In order to express it accurately, Zhou Yi directly passed and shared this part of the information with Xiaofu.

After reading it, the Stream Tracer said, "In this case, you have synchronized your consciousness information through your ability of [Radio], so it was returned to the other end of the synchronization."

"It seems that the celestial beings are just disguising themselves to avoid being discovered. The strange gem structure... I don't know where they came from either."

"However, this channel can continue to be used."

Xiaofu explained: "Da Zhou, that body is not a house. As long as the owner is not there, others can sneak in. Any involuntary changes in the body will be immediately discovered by the consciousness."

"There is only one possible reason why you were not rejected. That is, the original owner's consciousness has disappeared, leaving behind a hostless body without conscious control. Just like the Poseidon before."

"So don't worry, just use it boldly."

Zhou Yi then confirmed that the countdown was a call to the celestial being to whom the stressor belonged.

Li Mo's former boss died for some reason.

This made Zhou Yi feel at ease.

Then we can get a glimpse of the group of celestial beings in this way.

Then, Zhou Yi reviewed the demand for [radio] capabilities on mobile phones.

Channel 1 is the simplest and can be activated with just a mobile phone.

Channel 2 requires 4 mobile phones to open.

Channel 3 consumed a total of 16 mobile phones.

Channel 4, which was just opened, fed a total of 256 mobile phones.

That is, the elements required for the next channel are the square of the elements consumed by the previous channel.

Channel 5 requires 65536 mobile phones to be activated, which is possible if you try hard, but Channel 6 requires 43 billion mobile phones...which is an impossible task.

The Kestrel suddenly sounded the alarm.

"More than 10 Light Na species are approaching this side from underground at high speed!"

Zhou Yi immediately ordered: "Everyone, hide where you are and prepare for battle."
