Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 233 Communication Problems
Five kilometers is a very long distance for humans walking on the ground, and it would take several days to reach it.

But if you fly in the sky, it will take less than half an hour.

This was also due to the fact that the three of them were afraid of getting lost and didn't dare to fly too fast. In addition, Gu Yu also brought two people with him, so the flying speed was much slower.

The sense of gap was so strong that Lu Yuning even wanted to never walk again and tie Gu Yu to herself.

It's really too fast.

In fact, it was also the first time for Gu Yu to fly like this. There were plants everywhere in the park. After several dangerous experiences, he didn't dare to use this ability casually anymore.

This time it was at night, and Lu Yuning gave him a sense of security, so he dared to be so bold.

However, five kilometers seemed to be his limit. After a dizzy spell, the three of them had no choice but to land on a tall building.

At this moment, in the dark at night, you can still tell where you are.

Zhang Song just drew a rough map for Lu Yuning. The reagent factory was just due west of the school. They used the moon as a direction marker and just had to keep flying in the right direction. As long as the direction was correct, the distance would not be too off.

The largest landmark in the area was a tall chimney, but after looking around, they could hardly see it.

There is no other way. It seems that we can only rest on the roof for one night and continue our action tomorrow morning.

This area is probably the office building of a chemical factory. After all, since there is a reagent factory nearby, there is a high probability that there will be no residential community.

The three of them rested here.

Wu Xiao took out some materials that had been prepared long ago from the space, and Lu Yuning quickly made a temporary residence. They immediately felt a surge of security. After all, their current shelter had already been upgraded to stainless steel, so even if there were any animals nearby, they would not panic at all.

The three of them went into the shelter, feeling rather bored. After the long rush just now, they felt inexplicably excited. They couldn't sleep for a while, so they just started chatting.

"Yu Ning, are we going to absorb these people in the lab into the shimmer later?"

Lu Yuning lay on the ground, feeling a bit cold. He had no choice but to shrink his body. Then he said, "If possible, it would be best if we can join. At the very least, we can maintain a good relationship. No matter what, the ultimate goal is still the nearby Blood Hand Settlement. This warp tree is very important to us."

"Speaking of which, Blood Hand's group doesn't look that strong. I thought the people outside were very strong. To be honest, their oppressiveness is not as strong as that of the Xinghuo group before. Oh, sorry Gu Yu..."

After talking for a long time, Wu Xiao suddenly remembered that Gu Yu was also from Xinghuo, so he quickly apologized.

Gu Yu smiled bitterly and said, "It doesn't matter. We are all family now. But to be honest, Xinghuo never took you seriously from the beginning to the end. I didn't expect that you would fall flat on your face in the end."

Lu Yuning smiled. "We were certainly crushed by you at the beginning, but the turning point was probably Yingying and the others. Only with the liberation of productivity and the full unleashing of technological means can we truly unleash them. But Blood Hand's group isn't that simple, so we'd better not be careless. We haven't even seen any exotic animals, so it's impossible for an organization specializing in domesticating animals to not have mutants." "Indeed, that electric-discharging dog we saw on the shore looked like it was completely beyond our ability to handle."

"That's why we need to upgrade our weapons quickly. To truly harm these alien species, we need true ranged weapons like gunpowder. The ones we've developed before are fine against ordinary humans and insects without superpowers, but once they exceed a certain size, they're just scratching their itch, unless their superpowers continue to break through their limits. But it seems the further we get into the future, the slower our superpowers improve."

The two nodded silently, having some understanding of the current situation, and then fell into deep thought.

Gu Yu was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "I don't know what's going on at the base. We can't communicate with them right now. They're basically completely disconnected."

Lu Yuning paused, then said thoughtfully, "That reminds me that maybe I should consider getting a communication device."

Wu Xiao suddenly thought of something and asked, "Oh, by the way, aren't you symbiotes? Shouldn't consciousness coexist?"

Gu Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know about that actually. I haven't been assimilated by the symbiote."

Lu Yuning was also stunned by Wu Xiao's fantastic idea. Perhaps it was indeed a solution. Logically speaking, since the symbiont exists in the form of coexistence of consciousness, the person being symbiotic should also have a part of the symbiont's consciousness. This is equivalent to a mobile communicator. The only thing that needs to be confirmed is whether this coexistence state can break through the distance limit. If it can, it would be too convenient.
However, Gu Yu was not assimilated, and there was no way to verify it now. He could only go back to the ship to see if there were any assimilated mutants.

However, even if communication is possible, people in the park cannot get out. The place where they parked the boat is about five kilometers away from the park. It is difficult to move on foot. Moreover, without the ability of mimicry, it is still very dangerous for others to move long distances.

The three of them chatted about everything under the sun for a while, and Lu Yuning gradually felt sleepy and eventually fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, after the three woke up, they explored their surroundings.

The place they parked was indeed the roof of an office building. There were a few black objects on it, and it was difficult to see what they were from a distance.

Lu Yuning looked at it for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he realized what it was.

After the three of them approached, Lu Yuning said, "Sure enough, this is a solar panel."

Wu Xiao rolled up his sleeves excitedly and then said, "How about it, do you want to take it back?"

Lu Yuning shook his head and said, "There's no rush for now. We should ensure that the main mission of this trip is completed normally. This thing can actually be found everywhere. When we get back, we can look for it on the rooftops of nearby residential buildings. This thing is certainly very useful, but for us, the most important thing is actually the power storage device that comes with it. If we can find it, we will have no shortage of electricity in the future. At least we don't have to worry about lighting for daily life."

The three of them temporarily put the solar panels behind their heads, stood on the platform and began to look around.

Soon, a slender and tall giant structure was discovered on the west side of the office building.

Although it is not very clear, it still looks somewhat similar to the shape of the chimney described by Zhang Song.

After confirming the target, the next thing was a bit troublesome. The chimney seemed to be some distance away. It was daytime now, and flying directly in the sky was dangerous no matter how you looked at it.
