The End of the Earth

"Be careful! Girls, these are energy tubes. They will become unstable if hit. If you are blown to pieces, even our great commander won't be able to save you."

Boris scolded and laughed as he directed his subordinates to carry out the moving work. The people he sent this time were very useful, especially those who were very skilled in dismantling the energy supply station. I don't know where he got so many talents from.

However, Xiang San did not intend to dig into the matter. After all, they were all serving him, and he would never have too many talented people.

He looked at the energy tubes wrapped in special materials with great interest. Each one was about one meter long and as thick as a thigh.

Several people lifted one tube and took turns to load it onto the cart. The porters who did not have the power of magic even had to use the vehicle's tow rope to drag the cart.

The quality of these energy tubes is far beyond imagination.

The radiation detection index displayed on his terminal has also begun to rise. There is no doubt that these are nuclear element carriers that can release radiation, the core of the energy supply station.

"The radiation isn't that high. It seems the outer shells of those energy tubes are made of special materials to prevent radiation leakage."

These will be used within the base later. If the radiation is too high, we will need to make other plans.

Amid the crowd's exclamations, Typhoon-type four-legged robots lined up and drove out of the sinkhole and came into people's sight.

After Xiang San obtained the authority granted by the 19th artificial intelligence, he also obtained the right to use them. Although they were obsolete models from the late old era, their use value is still not inferior to current unmanned equipment.

What's more, these unmanned machines have been used to serve combat troops and are more functional.

More and more scavengers gathered around, having never seen such a scene before.

The supplies obtained this time were not much. The entire convoy was almost entirely loaded with various modular equipment and lines for the energy supply station. The Typhoon robots can follow the convoy. These robots can reach a speed of 130 kilometers per hour, and the batteries they are equipped with do not consume much power even when driving to the base.

Late at night, the convoy was ready to set off after counting the number of people.

"Karu~"

"commander!"

"Those guys have been watching us from up there all day. Bring everyone up there and capture them all. Let's see what kind of crap they are."

Kalu drew ten Garo demons and quickly approached a broken high-rise building. As if sensing the intention of Kalu and others, a slight sound was heard from the wreckage of the building.

In the dark night, Garo Demon saw everything as clearly as in the daytime. Ten minutes later, he brought seven or eight little brats and appeared in front of Xiang San.

Now, Xiang San was confused. Child?

They looked like boys in their teens, the oldest no more than twelve or thirteen years old.

"Children? Who's the boss among you?"

The group of children looked at each other without saying a word, and looked at Xiang San and the Garo demons around them in confusion. The high-powered searchlights shining on them allowed everyone to see every detail of these children.

"Boris, get some of those interpreter earpieces your men wear and put them on these kids."

After Xiang San said this, everyone realized that these kids didn't wear ear stickers for translation. This thing, which is considered to be the most practical thing in the early stage of Bai Flash, actually didn't have it?

"Oh! I'll get it done right away."

Soon the children reluctantly put on these new and strange things they had never seen before.

Xiang San took a deep breath, tried to appear amiable, and squatted down to look at them.

"Uncle asks again, who is the boss among you? Or who leads you? Uncle wants to ask you something."

An eight-year-old child stood up and the other children looked at him nervously, seeming to be very nervous.

"Is that you? What's your name?"

"Sumaya, please don't hurt my companions."

What Xiang San saw on this child's face was not the childishness of an eight-year-old, but a maturity that came from having experienced many hardships in the world.

More importantly, the child is a girl. If you don't look closely, you can't tell. She is covered in dust and has short golden hair.

The ears that were not covered by the hair were exposed because Sumayya had pierced ears.

Ear piercing in the old times? He's still a child. At least Xiang San hasn't seen any child with pierced ears in such a long time. This is something that only happened in the old times. And judging from the closed state of the child's ear holes, it means he hasn't worn ear ornaments recently.

"You ask your friends to listen to the other uncles, and we'll leave here and go to a safe place, okay?"

Sumaya nodded, and she turned around and told her friends in an imperative tone to follow the arrangements of Boris and others.

It was just as Xiang San guessed, these kids were not ordinary people.

When facing people like Xiang San, his expression was not as calm as that of an ordinary child.

Xiang San took Sumaya into his car and the convoy began to drive towards the base.

Boris, who was sitting in the passenger seat, handed Xiang San a towel and two bottles of water. Xiang San smiled and took the things. Boris was a smart guy and he understood things more and more clearly.

Xiang San poured water on a towel and handed it to Sumayya, asking her to wipe her face.

Soumaya hesitated, not sure whether to take the towel.

"I know you are a girl, don't be afraid, uncle is not a bad person."

Sumaya's heart skipped a beat and she looked nervously at Xiang San and the other two people in the car.

"How did you know?"

"That's not important. Clean your face and hands first. I'll ask you questions, and you answer them.

In addition to radiation, the dust in the wild is likely to contain other incomprehensible bacteria and viruses that children cannot resist."

Sumayya abandoned all other thoughts and began to wipe her face, ears and hair with the towel, then wiped her hands.

"You ask."

"Do you have the habit of wearing earrings? Where are your things?

Put it on.

Sumayya took out an intricately carved earring from her coat pocket. It was an ornament carved with strange flowers.

"what is this flower?"

"The moonflower, a flower that glows in the moonlight. My father said..."

Sumayya was a little distracted when she talked about her father.

Xiang San looked at Boris and asked, "Is there such a flower?"

"Commander, I'm not very familiar with flowers."

Xiang San smiled, touched the earrings on Sumaya's ears, and his expression changed slightly.

"Sumaya, can you tell me why you were staring at us from that half of the building? Don't lie, I can tell if you're lying."

Sumayya grabbed the corner of her clothes and looked out the window at the four-legged robots following the convoy and gave up the idea of ​​escaping. Even if she could run away, it would be impossible for her to survive alone in this wilderness, especially as a child.

"We are waiting for those who went down earlier than you. We want to fight them to the last hurdle."

The child's words revealed a strong murderous intent, the sincerity of which surprised Xiang San, and even Boris beside him felt that it was not simple.

"Those people are dead. There's something very dangerous down there."

Hearing Xiang San's words, tears flashed in Sumaya's eyes, and suddenly the tears burst out and she burst into tears.

"I want to kill them myself! Why not me?

Why? "

She looked at Xiang San in despair, her tender face full of tears. She looked at him helplessly, which made him feel a little pity.

Xiang San held her in his arms and patted her back gently. Sumayya, who was crying inconsolably, gradually became tired of crying and fell asleep.

He knew that this matter needed to be questioned slowly, to find out how much hatred could drive a group of children so crazy that they were willing to risk their lives.

After returning to the base, he asked Shan Qiao and others to settle these children who had not eaten or slept for who knows how long. The comfortable environment of the base was like a huge cradle, and they soon fell into a deep sleep.
