I became a witch, but I started the industrial revolution

After several days of sorting and exploration, there is still no sign of deciphering the text. The destruction was too thorough. However, a few mechanical engineers did give them a little surprise.

Through speculation and experimentation, they successfully started a vehicle that had long been scrapped in another world after replacing it with the spare parts they brought with them.

The engineers' eyes widened when the car screen lit up.

It's in color, and you can slide and click by touching it. Although the alliance can project the live images through magic, the televisions and other equipment they have developed are still in black and white, not to mention touch screens.

By disassembling the scrapped engine that was replaced, it was found that many of the precision parts inside were at a level that the Alliance is currently unable to make or is extremely difficult to process.

Based on batch screening and comparison of surrounding vehicles, it is preliminarily estimated that the technological gap between the two sides is around 50-70 years.

The comparison of components between the two sides in the testing of corpse component samples was also similar. If there was one most obvious difference, it was that the physical fitness of humans in the other world was much stronger, about 20% stronger on average.

Deep genetic comparison cannot be done with existing equipment. On the surface, they are roughly the same, and since they are all carbon-based organisms, there will not be much difference.

There is no distinction between day and night in this world. They all set their own time to plan their daily routines. Betty took off her outer armor and sat in the tent to record various data.

The commander, expert, and soldier captain each write a copy, and then add the data to the archive for cross-review, which can also avoid the loss of data and information.

Betty stopped when she wrote about scientific sampling and the specific sample material analysis and manufacturing time was about 40 years.

She always felt something was wrong, so she pulled up Fenica, who was resting to recover her energy, and asked her in detail.

First of all, it has been more than 20 years since the last time they came in, but the corpses now look as if they have not been dead for long. The overall freshness is enough for the aliens to parasitize and hatch new aliens.

Obviously, judging the time by the corpse is definitely wrong, so they did not use the data of the corpse as an anchor point. The materials of dead things will not lie, but are they really only produced a few decades ago? Is it possible that they were hundreds of years ago or even longer?

There is a special energy that preserves these things like 'specimens', they knew it from the beginning, but there was one thing they missed.

That is, the condition of these vehicles does not match the "scrap" time of these corpses.

If both sides were maintained by the same energy, these cars should remain in a usable condition. Even if they were smashed or destroyed, they should be relatively new, rather than the rusty scrap metal that should be sold as they are now.

It’s impossible that the people from other worlds used to drive scrapped cars on a daily basis?

The human body is obviously in a fresher state than steel, and the degree of damage of the material can also be seen from the difference of about 20 years between the two.

That is to say, there was a time when the world was normal and the oxidation of materials occurred naturally.

The humans from the other world completely broke away from these technological creations and reappeared about twenty years later. Then both sides were specimenized by special energy, so that the passage of time on both sides just matched.

So where can they hide during this time?

The next moment, an idea popped into Betty's mind.

'underground'

Most of the warning and prohibitory signs on the streets seemed to be derived downwards, and were somewhat similar to the subway lines opened after the Alliance. The only difference was that theirs seemed to be more convenient, and there were many such downward entrances.

Betty called her adjutant and other team leaders to hold a brief meeting to discuss whether to go underground. After listening to Betty's analysis, everyone felt that there was no problem and voted in favor.

There is no danger on the ground at the moment. Most of the things they carry are useless, and there is nothing to explore. Almost everything around has lost its original appearance under the baptism of time, just like archaeology.

No, archaeology at least has some fragments of recorded text or something, but there is nothing here. We can only roughly determine what this place was used for before, so it is inevitable to continue exploring.

Soon they moved the base to an underground passage that had been confirmed by a geological monitoring device. After re-checking their equipment, they used TNT to blast open the tightly blocked passage.

‘Ouch~! ! ! ’

As soon as the passage was blown open, a creepy howl came from the depths of the dark passage, and everyone looked at each other immediately.

"Put on your breathing filter valve, and you are authorized to fire at will. Nia, it's your turn."

'Okay, wait a moment.'

Nia put her hand on the guard alien and closed her eyes. She let go of her hand after her mental power slowly synchronized with its frequency. An invisible wave passed through the new aliens around her. After receiving the order, the two aliens rushed into the depths of the passage.

A fierce fighting and roaring sounded in the darkness, and more and more howling sounds came from far away.

After seeing that it worked, two lightly-armored female soldiers dressed similarly walked up to Nia. A moment later, more than a dozen aliens were controlled to rush in. Two of them had an imaging device powered by magic crystals hanging around their necks.

As the aliens broke into the interior, specific scenes began to appear, but it was impossible to see what they were. All that could be seen in the darkness were densely packed and terrifying white pupils.

The combat power of these aliens is very strong, and is basically stuck at the limit of level 9 that the team can handle.

The darkness could not weaken their strength. Instead, they seemed to thrive in it. Wherever their sharp limbs swept past, black unknown limbs flew everywhere.

However, such damage did not seem to be fatal to the monsters hiding in the darkness. They continued to charge towards the aliens. The more Betty looked at them, the deeper her frown deepened. "How much explosive bombs do we have in stock?"

'35% of the material reserves, the remaining 40% are ordinary copper bullets, and 25% are other special ammunition.'

"Each team selects 5 people to change to explosive bombs, and the rest are free to choose. Retreat and make room for heavy weapons. After 15 seconds, Nia will let the aliens retreat."

Following Nia's mental fluctuations, the aliens that were blocking the monsters and killing them retreated, leaving behind two skeletons.

Almost all of them were injured. In the Medea experiment, they did not find the same amazing blood components as the aliens in the previous life. Their blood was just blood and nothing else. It could be said that it was just a semi-finished product.

As two anti-aircraft vehicles modified into quadruple machine gun mobile platforms were driven to the entrance of the passage, others also prepared their weapons.

The demolitionist quickly attached C4 bombs on both sides of the passage, the heavy armored firepower operator carefully loaded the large shotgun with thermite dragon's breath bullets, and the others either raised the PKDM in their hands or carried the portable Iron Fist rocket launcher and aimed vaguely.

"Let's try the quality of these things."

Chapter 376 Nothing more than that

'Tap tap...'

As the extremely fast aliens passed through the formation, the dark passage shook violently and the mirrors of all the mecha soldiers' helmets glowed red.

With a roar like that of thousands of troops, countless strange human figures were twisted and squeezed at the corner like a tide, sweeping across the entire passage, reflected by the infrared night vision goggles.

"Da Da Bang Bang..."

When the enemy appeared at the corner, there was a sudden sound of gunfire outside the passage. High-explosive rockets, dragon-breath bombs, and heavy machine guns together formed a death metal storm, and countless monsters were smashed into pieces.

Break out? You think you're shooting a movie? That doesn't exist.

The powerful kinetic energy of the metal bullets can often penetrate multiple monsters, blasting bloody holes in the bodies of several monsters. Basically, whatever they touch will be torn apart, and it is common for them to be broken in half.

With an ample supply of bullets, the vehicle-mounted parallel MG34 fully demonstrated its terrifying power with a loss of more than a thousand rounds per minute.

The attack from the two vehicle-mounted machine guns was enough to overwhelm the monster, not to mention the large-caliber heavy machine guns carried by other mecha soldiers.

The monsters' numerical advantage could not be fully utilized in the narrow passage. They could only charge in waves and then be eliminated in clusters. The dense metal bullets were enough to overwhelm the monsters by their sheer number.

The dragon breath bombs also ignited many corpses, and the entire passage was engulfed in a sea of ​​fire. From time to time, the charming smell of barbecue could be smelled.

This impact lasted for more than five minutes before the gushing momentum was gradually suppressed, until the last monster twitched and fell at Betty's feet.

Letting go of the PKDM with a red-hot gun barrel, Betty stretched out her mecha's big hand and lifted up the monster's head. Its pair of all-white eyes on its body that was proliferating with tumors were eye-catching. At this moment, its eyes were full of madness, and it kept trying to bite and tear apart the mecha's arms.

Betty squeezed its head and crushed it. The body fell to the ground and crawled around, trying to merge with other of its kind. This scene made Betty frown: "Let's get a Pyro to send them off for the last time."

"Yes, Commander!"

A fully armed and heavily armored pyro soldier raised his thrower and sprayed napalm at the entire passage. The high temperature, accompanied by a strong smell of burning fat and black smoke, lingered in the sky above the area for a long time.

As the burning objects disappeared, the flames gradually died out. The team, which had completed the supply of ammunition, oxygen and magic crystals, carried heavy baggage backpacks and began to move towards the interior of the passage.

Walking through the dark passage full of ashes and reaching the interior, you can see in the faint fluorescent light that the space is full of weeds and moss covering the walls, which is somewhat out of tune with the style of the walls made of high-tech synthetic materials.

However, one thing that is certain is that this place, at least at the beginning, was not a monster's lair, but an area where humans in this world live.

Although it is unknown how many years this place has been occupied by monsters and sealed off, the light source above the wall can confirm that the infrastructure in this area is still functioning normally. It is also unknown whether the situation is the same as on the surface or what.

Perhaps the monsters in this area had been cleared out in the previous round of monster tide. No other monsters appeared during the exploration, which made everyone feel a little relieved.

The engineers in the team conducted a carpet search and exploration of each area, and the further they went, the more infrastructure they encountered surprised them.

They have come across several 3D holographic devices that can be touched. Although they cannot understand the text on them, just looking at the appearance of these devices can show that there is a considerable generation gap with the surface technology.

If the hypothesis that they escaped from the surface to underground is true, then after they retreated underground, technology actually made a leap forward?

They dug up some relics of the monster's 'previous life' in the surrounding garbage debris, such as an identity card that could display a person's detailed information by touching and sliding with a finger, with a clear face photo on it, which looked exactly like ordinary humans in their world, and did not look weird.

However, the most urgent task is to analyze the writing of the other civilization. Previously, due to the lack of reference objects on the surface, the progress of deciphering the writing was very slow. Now there are several devices that can speed up the progress.

At the same time, Fanica also gave a lot of useful suggestions. Although she was warned after entering the other world with Medea, she simply gave up in-depth exploration and did not stop her research on the other party's civilization carrier text.

After comparing the two and verifying each other, it took about half a month to record and summarize, and the language expert who accompanied the group was able to barely interpret the literal translation meaning of this civilization.

Just as they had guessed before, this was an underground transportation hub. The three-dimensional holographic projection devices placed everywhere were used by reception staff to answer passengers' questions and had no other functions.

At this time, more than a month had passed since they arrived in the other world, and they only had half of their mission time left, so they needed to speed up their progress a little.

As they continued to go deeper, the frequency of monster attacks began to increase. These monsters were very sensitive to sound, and often a large group of them would appear right after they fired a shot, forming a monster tide. Fortunately, the team had enough martial virtue and it didn't take much effort to deal with them.

The monsters' strength did not increase at all, it seemed that there were simply more of them. Overall, it was always within the acceptable range for the team.

"To be honest, if it's only this level, it shouldn't be enough to destroy this civilization, right?"

A soldier from the team took a special giant sword and chopped the monsters that rushed up into two pieces with one stroke, then raised his big feet and stomped on them one by one like cockroaches.

Even without the weapons in their hands, the physical strength of these monsters would not be able to break through the defense line until the barrels of the two Maxim guns were destroyed. They did not believe that this civilization's level of technology could not do this.

"Aren't we here to solve this mystery?"

'Too. '

Betty led the team and walked at the front. She was the first to find a rail train that looked relatively intact and should be able to run.

The card of the former train captain was found among the cloth remnants on the ground. Apart from dust and cloth remnants, there were no marks or growths like blood and flesh tissue residues, and the entire carriage showed no signs of damage.

This indirectly confirms that the outbreak of the disaster must have been very sudden and the speed of infection was very fast, leaving the train conductor with no room for resistance and consciousness before he was infected and turned into one of the monsters outside.

I tried to start the train by sticking the card together, and it actually made the train run normally.

This was also the idea that Betty came up with after seeing that the energy supply in other areas was normal. Since they couldn't find the power devices of these trains, there was a possibility that they were using external energy supply.

After the train was activated, a detailed flat holographic image of road information was displayed on the dusty train window. There were no densely packed route markings as they had expected, but only two circular routes.

The lengths of the two routes are extremely astonishing, and there are a large number of information icons of suspected stations marked along the way, but all of the icons are marked with red Xs.

"It looks like this line goes around the entire country? Send a translation expert to the conductor's room."

...

Chapter 377 Is there a mole?

'According to the text and the pattern, our next stop should be called Agricultural Zone 4, um, the fourth agricultural planting zone. This is the industrial zone, and this is the base. The symbols in front have the same function as the numbers we use, which is used to classify.'

"Agricultural area? I just don't know how big this area is."

Betty stroked her chin in thought.
