Chapter 510

"What about the second choice?" Starley asked.

Adimili replied, "the second way is to climb Mount turash and pass storm fortress. Down the mountain is the emerald field. It's a natural ice tundra, and our green capital is on the west side of the ice tundra. "

"What's the difference between the two roads?" Zero asked the point directly, there must be a huge difference between the two roads, otherwise adimili would not ask what she and starry meant.

"Passing through the hall of the dead from the old tunnel will greatly save time, and it will not be affected by the cold climate brought by the high altitude, so it is better to walk. But the problem is the hall of the dead, which we used to sweep. But in a team of 300 people, no more than ten people came back in the end. The hall of the dead has been occupied by the cold ice corpse devil. Even if you two captains and other powerful subordinates want to pass, we have to pay a certain price. " Adimili said.

"Cold ice corpse devil?" Obviously, neither zero nor Stanley has ever heard of such a monster.

Adimili explained: "these monsters evolved from the corpses of the base staff. In the beginning, they were just living corpses. A small number of the living dead left the base and wandered in the emerald field. They were all annihilated after we found them. Thus we found the existence of the hall of the dead. According to the traces of the living dead, we found the hall of the dead and fought with the living dead inside. However, there were only about 15 people in the reconnaissance team at that time, which was soon drowned by the living dead. "

"After confirming that the reconnaissance team was completely destroyed, we sent another team to the hall of the dead. There, our soldiers found that the living dead had eaten up the bodies of the former scouts. And in the absence of food, people who live or die start killing each other. The team did not dare to stay and quickly withdrew. When we organized a team of 300 people to exterminate the living dead, we found that they had changed in the hall of the dead. " "According to the description of the survivors at that time, we know that the living dead have evolved," adimili said. I don't know whether it's the reason that devoured the corpses of our scouts or the reason that the living dead killed each other and mutated their genes. In short, they have evolved into another kind of monster. They become more agile, fast enough to avoid high-energy beams. They become stronger, and their strength and defense are greatly improved. The most significant change is that they are actually sensitive to ice and dark elements, so they can release a kind of shadow ice fog. In the shadow ice fog, the vision will be greatly limited, not only that, but also the spiritual perception and exploration instruments will be greatly affected. In addition, the ultra-low temperature ice fog particles will have an impact on the speed, and will continuously consume the energy of the organisms in the ice fog. This is a kind of existence similar to the home court, but this home court is supported by the cold ice corpse demons

"In addition, there is a deep cold Lord in the cold ice corpse demon. This king of corpse demon has a halo of deep cold. Its function is similar to that of shadow ice fog, but its negative effects are far greater than that of shadow ice fog. In addition, we only know that it can also release cold flame and ice sting hell, which are high-level ice system capabilities. As for whether the Lord of deep cold has other abilities, we don't know Adimili stressed: "so if we want to go through the hall of the dead, we can save time on the journey, but we have to face a monster army composed of a deep cold Lord and more than 300 corpse demons. At that time, even if we can get through, I'm afraid there will be only a few people who can get out. "

"What about the other way? Then what storm fortress is another old era base? " Starley asked.

Adimili shook her head and said, "no, storm fortress is a defensive fortress built by us in Georgia."

Because mount turash is followed by the emerald field, which is already within the scope of gdugnia. Therefore, gdugnia will build a defensive fortress on Mount turash. Storm fortress is located on the only way to the downhill of tulash mountain, which can be said to guard the traffic arteries. If you don't get permission from Georgia, then unless the North has two wings, any creature that tries to force through will be tested by storm fortress.

At the beginning of the design, storm fortress was a steel fortress with both attack and defense. In the fortress defense plan passed by Lvdu, the storm fortress will garrison 200 Fishman swordsmen, 100 Fishman spears, 10 team leaders, two deputy commanders and one commander for many years. In addition to individual equipment, it is also equipped with a heavy artillery weapon "pneumatic gun" independently developed by Lvdu.

Pneumatic gun is a kind of heavy gun which uses air compression technology combined with physical shells to achieve long-range attack. The firing distance can reach 2000 meters and the firing frequency is 10 shots per minute; The air gun has two shooting modes: direct firing mode and projectile firing mode. The projectile speed in direct firing mode can reach 2500 meters per second, and one shot can level the whole mountain; The projectile mode can accurately control the impact point of the bombardment, and the explosive coverage of the shell can be increased by about 20%. It is a sharp weapon for positional attack.

It can be said that the whole storm fortress is well equipped. As long as it exists, it is an insurmountable barrier in the new era of lack of aerial flying tools.However, during the construction of the storm fortress, something happened, which made the fortress unable to complete as planned, let alone garrison.

"In the middle of the construction of the fortress, an abyss level mutant beast attacked us. It's the ice wing malrog. Although we tried our best to stop it, the abyss level mutant beast could not be defeated by a regular army at that time. After being attacked by the ice wings, all the workers and soldiers who participated in the construction died, and even the storm fortress, which has not yet been completed, suffered huge damage. In the end, our storm fortress became the monster's lair Adimili's tone showed a touch of helplessness.

How difficult is the abyss level mutant beast? Zero has personally experienced it. Just under the base of his own company, once there was an abyss Lord Angie gulit. On that day, in order to eradicate this mutant beast, zero can be said to have wasted nine oxen and two tigers. At that time, Angie gulit was still in the weak stage before he got what he wanted. If it was in his heyday, it was still a question whether all the people at that time could retreat completely.

Abyss level mutants often have evolved intelligence. They are smart, cunning and cruel. When a place is occupied as a nest, the neighborhood of the nest will be demarcated as its own territory. Other creatures can't live in its territory without its permission. At that time, Angie gulit allowed a variety of creatures above the base to exist, but he planned to use these creatures as food for his baby after birth.

It's not easy to compete with each abyss mutant beast. Even if there is only one, it is comparable to an army. After hearing that storm fortress was used as a nest by an abyss mutant, zero could not understand why adimili chose this route. Compared with the ice wing malrog, the deep cold Lord and the ice corpse demon in the hall of the dead are much more lovely. Obviously, the pressure passing through the hall of the dead is less than that passing through the storm fortress, even though that place is equally dangerous.

As if seeing the doubt of zero, adimili explained: "although storm fortress is occupied by ice wings, it is only in summer that malrog wakes up in deep sleep and haunts the nest. Now it's a month before it wakes up, and we can safely pass through storm fortress. But the hall of the dead is different. The cold ice corpse devil will never close his eyes. The dead will wander in the hall forever and attack all the life entering the base. "

"I see. There seems to be no need to choose. As long as you are not a fool, you will choose storm fortress instead of the hall of the dead. " Starley laughs.

For this point, zero naturally will not give up easy to find difficult. Although he was very interested in the hall of the dead, he knew that it was not a good time, and he had no right to pull people into danger for his own sake. So the route to storm fortress was determined tomorrow. Seeing that it was getting late, adimili left and went back to her camp to have a rest.

Zero also went back to his tent, which was very warm, thanks to the constant temperature system of the marching tent. The camp, developed by asgart, has a temperature self-regulation function, which can not only insulate the field from radiation, but also keep the temperature in the tent moderate.

The skin of the newly hunted bear is flat on the ground. Leah sleeps on her side. She was covered with a marching carpet and seemed to be asleep. Zero knew she wasn't asleep, because when he came in, Leah's breathing increased a little, and it was obvious that she was still awake.

Linglai lay down beside her, stroked Leia's hair and said, "can't you sleep?"

Leah turned and got into zero's arms. She put her hands around zero's waist and said with a smile, "I can't sleep without seeing you back."

"In fact, you don't have to accompany me to suffer in such a place." Zero lightly kisses girl's forehead, light way.

Leah shook her head: "no, if I have to stay at home and wait for you to come back, I'd rather go to war with you, so that I can be with you all the time. Don't worry, I won't be a burden to you. Although I'm not as capable as sister BISS, I'm sure I can do something for you

Zero sighed: "you have done well enough. Don't force yourself too much. Besides, there's nothing to worry about, you and Bess. You are all important people to me. It's my duty to protect you. "

Leah was very happy to hear that. She pushed hard to zero's warm chest and said softly, "zero, after this western expedition. I want to have a baby for you. Do you think so? "

"Child?" It's a big surprise.

"Yes, don't you like it?" Leah looked up, looking forward.

"No, that's not what I mean. What I want to say is that one is too few. How can we have ten or eight? " Zero laughs.

Leah blushed and pretended to have a baby. "You think I'm a sow. How can I have so many babies?"

"Well, well, give birth to two. A boy, a girl. Men are like me and women are like you. That's OK. " Zero pats the pink back of the person in the arms to coax the way.Leah nodded. "That's about the same."

Xuan said in a low voice, "if you like many children, I'll work harder at most."

Zero pinched the tip of Leah's nose and said, "don't think about it in advance. Go to bed. We have to climb the mountain tomorrow."

"Well, I'll listen to you." Leah said cleverly. She just nestled up to zero and closed her eyes. After a while, there was a sound of even breathing, but he had fallen asleep.

Then the smile on his face faded away. He looked at Leah and sighed.

Having children is a top priority in the new era. The cruel living environment forces human beings to fight against the threat of death by accelerating the birth cycle and increasing the number of babies. As long as future generations continue to grow, even if the reality is cruel, there will always be hope.

In fact, as we all know, some influential men in the wilderness usually have wives and concubines at home. The only task of wives is to have as many children as possible. Although they have become tools of production, they have no complaints about it. That's because of the cruelty of this era.

The emergence of capable people distinguishes them from ordinary human beings. But the capable are evolving, and ordinary people in the wilderness are not stagnant. The mutated tissue that can resist strong radiation is actually a kind of evolution, but it tends to be morbid evolution. Perhaps after several or even dozens of generations of evolution, the genes of the mutated tissues will tend to stabilize, and even be optimized into something like skin tissue and attached to ordinary people, so that they can survive even when exposed to radiation.

As for another kind of evolution, it is shown in women.

Perhaps because of the strong demand for reproduction, women's genes are quietly changing. Their body tissues are constantly adapting to the needs of the times. Now a 13-year-old girl has the basic requirements of producing offspring. In addition, the fertility period has been reduced from 300 days to 150 days in the old era, and the fertility period has been reduced by half, which means that more offspring can be born.

However, this also brings about a serious problem, that is, the probability of premature death is very high. Of almost ten babies born at the same time, only two or three survived.

Hearing that Leah wanted to have a baby for herself, she was filled with emotion. Leah's physical fitness is perfect for childbearing, and with her strengthened constitution, the baby she will give birth to will be very healthy. No matter from which point of view, this is a woman's very reasonable and physiological demands. The problem is that zero, as a clone of super life, knows that it has the possibility of infinite evolution.

Because of this, he also knew that evolution must be ahead of fertility in terms of gene priority. That is to say, all the energy of his body is always ready for the needs of evolution, which is a kind of strong and irreversible instinct. Zero can leave sperm in Leah's body like other normal men. However, it is not known whether the sperm has the material that combines with the egg to produce an embryo.

Because, judging by the priority of instinct, I am afraid that the substance that should have existed in the essence will also be eliminated early in the morning and converted into pure energy for zero.

Therefore, zero is not sure whether she can make Leia or Beyonce pregnant with her own child. It's just that everything is always relative. Although instinct will give evolution the first priority, zero still has 100000 DNA memories. In theory, if zero can master these 100000 memory groups freely, then he can make up for the defect brought by instinct.

But for him now, although he has a huge gold mine, he still lacks a key to open it.
