MTL - How to Feed an Abyss!-Chapter 99 explore underground

As night fell, the Mole Man came alive.

Shi Yuan was in the "nest", watching the Mole Man running around.

The Mole Man is also human.

He can again carry out the human observation program.

Adjutant Ning returned to the aircraft to stay with Douglas, he contacted Lu Tinghan: "Admiral, are you going to stay in the 'nest' today?" He hesitated for a moment, lowered his voice, "Be safe when you come back."

Defenses can not do without.

They believe in Di Wen and others emotionally, but they must not lower their vigilance.

Lu Tinghan looked back.

Chi Yongge was squatting in front of a mole man, drawing blood for him. He worked all night and collected a lot of information, such as the blood, saliva, and hair of the Mole Man. On the one hand, he had never been in contact with the infected group in the Gamma Abyss, so he wanted to send the data back to the Alliance. I want to help this group of people, and I hope that the inhibitors will be useful. With limited time, he was in a hurry, wishing he could split into three people.

Dorothy, Di Wen's daughter, has been following Chi Yongge.

She asked a lot of questions, about alliances, about infections, about inhibitors...

She made up her mind to try inhibitors.

Lu Tinghan and Adjutant Ning said: "Doctor Chi probably wants to stay, let's go together. And," he looked to the side again, Shi Yuan was studying a dark tunnel with a question mark on his tail, "Want to stay?" He wasn't the only one who came down."

Adjutant Ning: "Got it."

Lu Tinghan hung up the communication, while Shi Yuan was still watching the tunnel.

He was very curious about the structure extending in all directions. Just now a large number of Molemen got into it—whether it was aberration or young age, they were extremely thin and thin.

Shi Yuan is working hard to study where this narrow tunnel leads to.

Lu Tinghan stood behind him and asked, "Do you want to sneak in and have a look?"

"No," Shi Yuan said, "I'll get stuck in it."

"No." Lu Tinghan urged him, "They all got in so nimbly, how could you get stuck?" He stretched out his hand, shaking in front of the tunnel, "There is wind, this tunnel is not long, You might know where it leads just by looking at it.”

Shi Yuan was confused.

He had obviously never heard the phrase "curiosity killed the cat", and he also forgot that when Lu Tinghan showed this expression, there was absolutely nothing good.

"Okay," he said, "then I'll try and just take a look."

He took Lu Tinghan's flashlight, leaned his upper body in, and looked around—

And got stuck.

Shi Yuan:?

Shi Yuan:? ? !

He heard Lu Tinghan's unqualified low laugh.

Shi Yuan struggled and twisted vigorously, flicking his tail, but still couldn't get out. After a long time, it was still Lu Tinghan who grabbed his tail and pulled him out with force.

Shi Yuan was dragged out, and was dazed for a few seconds: "You lied to me again! I said you would be stuck!"

Lu Tinghan: "No, I didn't expect that."

Shi Yuan: "Do you think I will believe it?"

Lu Tinghan's face remained unchanged: "It's true."

"I do not believe you."

"real."

Shi Yuan looked at Lu Tinghan suspiciously. As before, he didn't see anything, and believed his humans: "Well, you can't encourage me in the future, I'm not that flexible."

In the end, Shi Yuan still didn't know where the mole men went.

He also wants to find other Mole People to play with.

He's afraid of humans, but maybe the Mole Man is more of a monster than he is.

—He is not afraid anymore, the Mole Man is afraid.

Shi Yuan squatted in front of a group of mole men and asked, "Where are you going?"

Mole Man:!

They ran away at the speed of light.

Shi Yuan caught a little mole man who was alone, and slowly waved the tip of his tail to show his favor, and said, "Hi, my name is Shi Yuan, how about you?"

Little Mole Man:!

She was so frightened that her tears welled up, and she cried and crawled away.

Shi Yuan found another big mole man. The man was blocking the tunnel like a hill, grabbing a piece of bark and chewing on it.

Shi Yuan ran up to him: "Hi, is there anything interesting here?"

Big Mole Man: "..."

With a shake of his hand, the bark came out and hit Shi Yuan on the head.

Shi Yuan: "Ah!"

He took a blow for nothing, and the devil's horn pierced the bark. Before he could answer, he looked up and saw the huge body slowly collapsed, with his mouth opened, and a white soul seemed to float out.

Lu Tinghan quickly took Shi Yuan away.

The other mole men were relieved and looked at Lu Tinghan with gratitude.

Shi Yuan was frustrated: "They don't like me, just like those monsters."

"They just don't understand you." Lu Tinghan said.

"Okay." Shi Yuan's tail drooped.

Lu Tinghan asked him: "Where do you want to go? I'll go with you."

Shi Yuan's eyes lit up immediately: "I heard from Morgan that there are still some interesting places in the 'nest'."

"Then let's go and have a look." Lu Tinghan said.

Shi Yuan became happy.

They walked through the wide tunnel, with the faint light of the flashlight.

They found Gerald's study room. Several self-made wooden bookshelves stood crookedly, filled with old books. On the small wooden table were pens and paper written in imperial characters they could not understand. moles; they found an underground plantation, in the damp and dark soil, there were white and brown mushrooms growing together, long and short, vibrant, like a small mushroom Kingdom; they found a few more "classrooms", where different books were piled up on tables made of tree roots, and a few mole men were working hard to practice their pronunciation. When they saw Shi Yuan, they rushed away.

They also saw a sentinel-like position, with the Mole Man standing guard and guarding.

Shi Yuan said: "They are amazing, there are so many different places, like cities."

"It's more like a small village than a city." Lu Tinghan said with his arms around him.

"What is the village like?"

"The residential area is smaller than the city, and there are not so many high-rise buildings, so it is much more spacious." Lu Tinghan replied.

"Have you seen the village?"

"No. People in the village left for the city early."

"Then how do you know?"

Lu Tinghan: "I saw it in the documentary."

"Well, I haven't seen it. There is a scene in "The Martyr" that took place in the village... However, we don't have such a good stage set." Shi Yuan thought for a while, "In the future, this 'nest' will appear in documentaries ?"

Lu Tinghan smiled: "Maybe."

"Where are the cities in the alliance?" Shi Yuan asked again, "Gleaner City, Fengyang City, the main city."

Lu Tinghan: "Maybe it will."

"That's good." Shi Yuan also smiled, "They will all see our story."

In the evening, the two of them had dinner with Di Wen.

While the other Molemen eat raw meat, Devin and the others prefer cooked food. The canned food brought back from the princess' warehouse significantly improved the dinner, and Adjutant Ning also sent some compressed food from the aircraft.

Before dinner, Gerald and Morgan hauled sacks of meat down each tunnel.

The mole people stretched out their sharp claws and took the meat away with a "swish". Their eyes gleamed in the darkness, and they walked through the tunnel, rustling, and soon there was the sound of gnawing bones.

DeWen and Dorothy were cooking soup over the fire. Long grass, ground bark and mushrooms of unknown species were placed in an old copper pot. The brown soup boiled and thick bubbles appeared one after another. Bubble, unique fragrance.

Shi Yuan continued to drink the root tea.

He likes the taste.

Lu Tinghan beside him asked, "Where did these monster meat come from?"

"We made some traps to trap monsters." Di Wen replied while stirring the soup, "Lambda Abyss is nearby, its infection characteristic is 'floating', and all infected groups have the ability to fly. Birds that are good at flying After being infected,

Travel around. Have you ever heard of the arctic tern? "

Shi Yuan looked at Lu Tinghan.

Lu Tinghan replied, "Is it the kind of bird that migrates a long way?"

"Yes." Di Wen nodded, "Before the end of the world, they were the animals with the longest migration distance. They would fly back and forth between the North and South Poles every year to look for food, breed, and survive the winter. Many years ago, there was a group of Arctic animals. The Terns were infected by Lambda Depths and have stayed around since."

"They fly so well!" said Dorothy briskly.

She took a sip of the soup with a wooden spoon, blew on it, and tasted the saltiness.

She continued: "Arctic terns fly around and don't stop at all, infecting a lot of other creatures. They seem to be attached to Lambda Depths and don't want to fly too far, so there are a lot of infected creatures in the air here. They Like cannibalism, we soak the bird meat in the juice of poisonous weeds, put it on the ground, and they will be poisoned to death after they finish eating."

Chi Yongge said, "Won't their meat be poisonous?"

Dorothy laughed. "Toxic. But we're not normal people—"

She bared her sharp teeth.

Shi Yuan thought of something and asked, "Is it the same with the fish schools in the city?"

"Yes," replied Dorothy, "they were the princess's pets, and they escaped from the underground aquarium, and have been flying in the air." She put down the spoon, put her hands on her knees, and cupped her face. Love those dolphins and whales."

She looks ugly, with a small yellow flower pinned on her head, and when she does this gesture, it reminds people of a delicate girl.

In other words, if she hadn't been infected, she must be very charming.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Di Wen scolded her hoarsely, "Those are monsters!"

"Mum, you always say that—" Dorothy drew out her voice, "we can't get rid of them anyway, so let's enjoy them—"

"Nonsense!" Di Wen knocked the spatula on the side of the pot with a "bang", "Go, go eat."

Each got a piping hot bowl of unknown bark mushroom soup. Shi Yuan tasted it, and it was neither good nor bad.

Di Wen also opened several cans, including soybeans in tomato sauce and tomato macaroni. The sealing technology of the empire is mature, and these foods have not deteriorated. When served with hot soup and compressed biscuits from the Alliance, they are actually a bit hearty.

"Ah—" Gerald sighed deeply, "It's so delicious, I almost forgot what tomato tastes like. Ms. Di Wen, have you brought back all the cans?"

"Well." Di Wen replied, "There are not many canned food. How can the princess eat canned food? Those are reserved for emergencies." She laughed dryly, "It can be considered useful."

Chi Yongge was browsing the data on the terminal while eating.

He's still racing against the clock to research the Mole Man and Fusions and Inhibitors. Sharpen your guns before the battle, this is a war that you have to bite the bullet.

At night, Chi Yongge was still burning the lights to fight at night, and Dorothy accompanied him, watching with a suppressant, full of anticipation.

Shi Yuan and Lu Tinghan slept in the "nest".

Morgan took them to a slightly larger cave, with a lot of hay, leaves, bird feathers and animal skins on the ground. "This is our bed," he said.

This natural bed is very soft and has the fragrance of leaves, Shi Yuan rolled on it with his tail in his arms.

Lu Tinghan spent a little more time observing the Mole Man outside.

His observations are different from Shi Yuan's, they are rigorous and meticulous, with a research nature. Shi Yuan knew that he was getting to know this group of people, so he didn't bother him, and continued to roll until Lu Tinghan came back to lie down beside him.

When the flashlight was turned off, the fragrance of the leaves became more obvious. It was clearly underground, as if in the vast wilderness.

Shi Yuan said: "Lu Tinghan! Is this the feeling of camping!"

Lu Tinghan replied: "Everyone usually lives in a tent. But it's a bit like that."

Shi Yuan rolled a few times and rolled into his arms: "Then what shall we do tomorrow?"

"I just discussed with Di Wen about going to a small nearby city to see the situation. She is afraid of light, we have to leave before dawn." Lu Tinghan rubbed Shi Yuan's head, "So go to sleep."

Shi Yuan: "Hurr, snort, snort..."

He fell asleep satisfied.

There is the sound of the Mole Man crawling outside, and the night is the peak time of activities, collecting mushrooms, cutting down tree roots, organizing supplies, learning characters and standing guard...

What they did made this place look like a small village.

This is indeed a place that belongs to human beings.

The next day, Shi Yuan was woken up very early by Lu Tinghan.

Di Wenwen and the others returned to the ground. It was still dark, and the aircraft headed west in a thick darkness.

Thirty minutes later, the ruins of a small city appeared in front of me, the broken walls were swallowed up by the night, like the body of a dead beast.

Di Wen said that this used to be a very important gateway city, guarded by heavy troops.

Di Wen: "The last time I came here, it was still intact, but it was occupied by a group of moles." She smiled sharply, "Now that the moles are gone, this place is also destroyed. Those monsters are bigger than I thought. Also disgusting."

"Go down and have a look at the situation." Lu Tinghan said, "Maybe the underground is not damaged."

The aircraft landed slowly, and several infected birds looked at them with gray eyes, and flew away again.

When they reached the underground of the city, it was also a mess.

Some creature came and knocked the building apart.

Di Wen: "It's that group of fish again. They are always looking for food everywhere, and they are reincarnated from starvation." She sat on a piece of gravel tiredly, "Look slowly."

Shi Yuan and Lu Tinghan each took a flashlight and walked through the ruins. The school of fish swam through here aggressively, and the walls were smashed through. The tall city hall collapsed into ruins, and the whale must be responsible.

However, even with the collapse of the town like this, traces of past battles can still be seen.

Bullet holes, guns, shell casings and grenade fragments, black marks from flames...

There was a fierce battle here.

Lu Tinghan was thoughtful. He took Shi Yuan to the ruins of the outpost.

"What are you looking for?" Shi Yuan asked him.

"See if you can find combat records." Lu Tinghan said, "Most soldiers' helmets have their own recorders."

Shi Yuan also helped him find it.

After searching for a long time, there is nothing, the fragments of the helmet and the terminal are everywhere, it is useless at all.

Until his tail lifts a slate and sees a small... walkie-talkie?

He rolled up the walkie-talkie with his tail, waving to Lu Tinghan: "Look!"

Lu Tinghan took it, asked Douglas for a screwdriver and battery, pried off the deformed rear cover, cleaned off the dust and debris, and replaced the battery.

Everyone gathered around, and he turned on the walkie-talkie.

Its wiring was miraculously intact, and it made a "cheep blah blah—" sound. Soon, a recorded conversation came:

【... The first team received it! A team received! 】

[The second team received! 】

[Three teams received! 】

The team seemed to have received some orders.

Lu Tinghan stepped back for tens of seconds and started to replay.

【...Squeak, blah, blah! Zizi—I'm Admiral Liszt. Attention all teams, we will retreat to Dunton! 】

After decades, there were constant explosions, and the man almost roared.

[Repeat, we will retreat to Leon! 】

[One team received! A team received! 】

[The second team received! 】

[Three teams received! 】

【…】

Di Wen's expression changed instantly.

She murmured: "Admiral Liszt... I, I thought he was dead long ago!"

"It looks like they're retreating to Dunton." Lu Tinghan looked at her, "Do you have any impression?"

"No, no, not at all." Di Wen replied hoarsely, "I don't know about it. At that time, the king ordered to kill the Mole Man to prevent the panic from spreading... We were too busy trying to survive to pay attention to the war." Her hands trembled, "I really thought that Admiral Liszt was dead! He's already dead!"

She stared blankly for a few seconds and asked eagerly.

: "When's the next—when's the next Leon newsletter?! I want to hear it! Let me hear their voices!"

Before, Devin never believed that there were any survivors in Dunton.

This was the first time she had asked to listen to the "Echo" channel.

Lu Tinghan replied: "In 3 days."

Di Wen was so excited that his entire face was twitching. She whispered: "Liszt is the greatest general in the empire," she rubbed her hands vigorously, "Is there really someone in Dunton...? There..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the communication.

Chi Yongge stayed in the "nest" alone, staying with the Mole Man. At this time, his voice came, echoing in the ruins of the city.

He yelled, "Can you hear that?! The Nest needs backup!"

"The monster is coming! We need backup!"
