Global Famine: My items can be automatically upgraded.

Chapter 189 How many people are there?

The seabed was originally calm, and everyone thought there was nothing to gain.

Finally, someone suddenly roared, breaking the silence.

Chen Anzhi was startled.

This submarine does not have combat capabilities, and it would be attacked by a sea monster.

There is only one consequence...

Shelter 36's mechanical technology has regressed 36 years.

After all, the submarine is full of the institute's main force.

Shen Bei walked over a few steps, leaned on the window, and looked in the direction of the searchlight.

At this time, the searchlight illuminates the seabed fifty meters away.

There are no sea monsters.

It made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

But a scene even more terrifying than the sea monster appeared before everyone.

That was a... very big footprint!

The three toes at the front of the footprint are clearly visible.

A huge footprint about 80 meters long!

In fact, the length of this footprint is longer than the submarine.

When everyone saw this shocking and incredible footprint, a chill ran from the heel along the spine to the back of the head.

numb!

Everyone's eyes exploded and their scalps tingled!

On land, we have seen many strange and ferocious beasts.

But this is the first time I’ve seen a monster that can leave such huge footprints!

"What is this stuff!"

"Is there such a huge monster under the ocean?"

"It's so scary! This kick can blow up our submarine."

"They say the ocean breeds giants, and it's true!"

"Go up quickly, don't touch this thing."

"Wait, let me convert it. Based on the average ratio of human height to foot size of 7:1, this monster should be... over 500 meters tall!"

……

After everyone came up with this data, they were shocked and gasped.

Chen Anzhi put down his hand to stop the noise, but he disagreed: "Monsters are not human, this method of deduction is unreasonable."

Shen Bei nodded.

Can sea monsters grow into human form?

That's not very ocean-like.

Covered with tentacles, numerous eyeballs, as weird as it can be, this is the main theme of sea monsters.

Or rather... it is the main theme of the Immortal Shadow.

"Is this the monster in the prison that you guessed?" Chen Anzhi asked Shen Bei in a low voice.

Shen Bei shook his head: "Obviously not. Even if it is 500 meters tall, it has already turned out from under the air wall. It is probably a giant beast wandering in the sea."

Chen Anzhi nodded thoughtfully, and gained a new understanding of the dangers of the sea.

But there is no need to worry about the Titans being attacked by this behemoth. So far, there has been no news of any Titan in the shelter being attacked.

soon.

After the confusion, everyone returned to their posts and operated the submarine to surface.

More than ten minutes later.

The submarine surfaced.

Hu Yang and others cheered and boarded the submarine one by one.

Everyone else moved very quickly.

Only Bermuda was a little slower, as if afraid of falling into the water.

Chen Anzhi stood on the speedboat and stroked the air wall.

"There is no detection equipment, otherwise we could find out what it is." Chen Anzhi said with some regret.

Shen Bei looked up at the dome: "What do you think it could be?"

"Optical isolation membrane, photon confinement barrier, invisible partition curtain, or spiritual realm boundary..."

Chen Anzhi knocked on the air wall and continued, "I think the possibility of invisible partition curtains is greater. This is a technology that can divide space."

"You can do it?"

"What a joke." Chen Anzhi sighed. "I only heard these terms from the lunatics of the Church of Almighty God. Even they don't know how to do it specifically."

"That's right." Chen Anzhi added, "It could also be the boundary of the spiritual realm. I saw this in a book in You Wuchang's official residence. It's similar to a very metaphysical method."

Shen Bei said, "Metaphysics is energy."

"From my perspective, I only believe in machinery. If superpowers are involved, my foundation will collapse."

Shen Bei shrugged his shoulders and was not interested in this. It’s up to him to love whatever he wants. It’s not worth studying.

Shen Bei jumped onto the submarine and prepared to return.

Chen Anzhi asked, "Aren't you going to explore the island? Aren't there still unknown monsters?"

Shen Bei smiled and said, "Not every mystery is worth exploring and solving. That's something even God is unwilling to do."

Chen Anzhi spread his hands: "Okay."

After picking up the team members and prisoners, the submarine began to dive and return.

……

The sky was already dark, and a few stars appeared in the night sky.

The bright full moon emits endless silver-gray light, and its cycle of waxing and waning is cold and unpredictable.

When the sea was almost pitch dark, I finally saw the huge figure of the Titan and the RV floating behind it in the periscope, and I felt relieved.

When the submarine landed steadily in the shelter.

Shen Bei and others jumped into the RV.

Rock was waiting on the shore early.

There was some surprise in his eyes at this moment.

Except for the people from the research institute, everyone has returned.

But why are there still two prisoners?

What the hell is going on!

I told you to go to the island, but you went back to the land to arrest people?

Rock was a little crazy.

Hu Yang was about to explain, but Rock waved his hand and said, "Shen Bei is higher in rank than you, get out of the way."

Populus euphratica:……

Rock didn't ask any more questions for the time being. He counted the number of people and found that all eleven had returned.

"Not bad." Rock patted Shen Bei's shoulder: "You didn't abandon anyone this time."

"One died." Shen Bei corrected.

Rock tilted his head: "Aren't these eleven people?"

At this time, Bermula interrupted and said, "It's twelve people."

Rock was dazed for a moment, then said, "Look at my memory. Yes, there were twelve of them when we set out."

Shen Bei called out to the others: "Bermula, take the wounded to the medical center."

Bermula carried the wounded, was confused for a moment, and stood still.

It seems that I don't know where the medical center is.

Until Huyang took the lead and walked away with the wounded, and the other teammates followed closely, carrying the things they had harvested from the island.

Bermuda then followed.

……

Rock watched the team members leave and pointed at the two prisoners being escorted and asked, "What's going on?"

"Shelter No. 5 is also near the island." Shen Bei said only one sentence.

Rock understood when he heard it.

It must be that Babatu also sent people to the island, and the two sides just happened to meet.

Because Shen Bei is a powder keg, they will definitely fight if they disagree.

result……

The other party will definitely be wiped out.

Finally, two prisoners were captured.

Rock touched his nose and said, "We shouldn't have taken any prisoners."

"You can ask for a ransom." Shen Bei lit a cigarette, exhaled and said.

"Grass."

Rock was a little angry: "You still want a ransom? Babatu will definitely take your life!"

"My life is worthless." Shen Bei said jokingly.

Rock was so angry that he laughed, his face twisted a little: "Whatever, it's the same old saying, when the Titans are in the breeding area, don't show up if you can."

Luo Ke patted Shen Bei's shoulder and said, "That's it. Go to the mission office tomorrow to collect the mission reward."

"Why not now?"

"Damn it, I'm off work, you know!"

After saying that, Rock turned and left.

Shen Bei yawned.

It was a very busy day. If I had a circle of friends, my step count would have been off the charts.

After returning to the RV, I quickly ate something to fill my stomach with the help of Xiao K.

"Brother, your forehead..." Little K pointed and asked, "Was it shot?"

Shen Bei gently stroked Xiao K's face: "Actually, I am now a person with special abilities, and I also study mysticism. I am luckier than you."

Little K's eyebrows drooped. "You might as well say you're an alien, that would be more believable."

Shen Bei laughed a few times, rubbed the wound on his forehead, and asked, "Do you believe in aliens?"

Little K was full of thoughts, and after a long while he managed to speak, he said, "Are the people living on Mars considered aliens?"

"what?"

Shen Bei was stunned: "Mars?"

Little K nodded. "Zero said that according to old information, there was once a company founded by a guy named Musk that established a living area on Mars."

Shen Bei: ...

At this moment, there was nothing on Shen Bei's face, only calmness and numbness.

Shen Bei already had a guess as to who Ling was.

Almost the same existence as Dr. Batu.

If Zero said there were people on Mars, the credibility would be extremely high.

It is possible that two spacecraft were in combat and passed by Mars.

This reminded Shen Bei of a folk song mentioned by Chen Anzhi:

"...they ascended a long stairway, a stairway that took more than ninety sunrises to reach the sky, with six hundred and ninety thousand steps. When they reached the moon, it was full, and looking upwards, they saw only the vast earth, completely submerged in the silver light..."

In the past, Shen Bei thought it referred to the moon.

Judging from this, it should be referring to Mars.

Is it possible that there are really people living on Mars?

Shen Bei asked curiously: "Why does Ling say that? Where is the evidence?"

Little K shrugged. "What kind of evidence do you need for idle chat? This isn't a graduate school exam."

Shen Bei was silent for a moment, didn't ask any more questions, and went back to his room.

It is entirely possible to verify whether there are people on Mars.

Let Chen Anzhi get an astronomical telescope and he will know the answer immediately.

Even by looking through materials from old times, you can find news.

Such a big thing cannot possibly be left unrecorded.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you can find the information left over from the old times.

Moreover, whether there are people on Mars or not doesn’t mean much to Shen Bei.

More advanced "aliens" have appeared, such as Dr. Batu, whose existence has long raised Shen Bei's threshold.

If Shen Bei were the only one left on Earth, it would be possible for him to upgrade the cluster fire disc and fly it out of the Earth.

But it's just possible.

Shen Bei prefers quietness.

Although wishes are a luxury.

He took out the small ball of divine punishment miasma, took a look at it, and threw it into the folding space.

Shen Bei's small shoulder bag was made of nothing but tough cloth, and it was not safe enough to store such important things in it.

Open your hands and prepare to automatically remove your armor.

The visual panel flashed a series of self-test data.

Make sure that no part of the armor is damaged before you can remove it smoothly.

At the same time, while self-checking, the data stream is also being refreshed.

Various battle records flashed by quickly.

suddenly.

Shen Bei's consciousness moved, and he immediately stopped the self-inspection process.

And call the data back.

A photo appeared before my eyes.

That was the only photo taken on the island beach, on a boat that was otherwise deserted.

The photo only has messy text:

"Be careful! Don't go to the island, our own people!! They are not human!! They want to eat us! I don't want to be! I want to go back to the shelter, safe! On the island!"

If he hadn't seen it suddenly, Shen Bei wouldn't have remembered that he had taken this photo.

Shen Bei tilted his head and pondered the words carefully.

Shen Bei could be sure that these words were written by someone with extreme mental disorder.

Some are useless, some are useful.

Shen Bei only extracted one important piece of information: they are not human...

"Who are they referring to?"

Shen Bei thought carefully and realized that 12 people went to the island and 11 came back.

One was shot dead by Riemann.

This part of the memory is absolutely correct.

Are “they” in the team?

captive?

"No, no, the prisoners are from Shelter 5."
