Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 203 Nuclear warheads and glowing "tumors"

After determining the target, Qi Lin immediately got up and ran towards the deep pit, but at this moment, a wrist-thick vine suddenly shot out from the depths of the forest, entwined around his ankle, Pull him to the ground!
"NMB!"

Qi Lin couldn't help yelling, and looked back, just in time to see where the alienated tree demon appeared, and the other end of the vine was also connected to the alienated tree demon.

Qi Lin quickly swung the bone blade to chop off the vine on his feet, but before the bone blade touched the vine, the vine became extremely hard in an instant like the blood-filled sponge under the man. Going up, it only cut less than a third of it, and even made a small cut with the bone blade!
Moreover, a large amount of bluish-black juice gushed out from the incision, completely covering the incision.

As the vines became stiff, the poisonous barbs on them were deeply embedded in Qi Lin's flesh and blood. For a while, various painful sensations came from the ankles, and as for the toes, they were completely Lost consciousness, as if it didn't exist at all.

"hiss……"

Taking a breath, Qi Lin reached out to touch the backpack, only to find that there was no antidote left in the backpack.

At this time, the alienated tree demon had already held the pair of sharp tree claws on the vine, and was about to drag it back——

"Boiling blood, turn it on!"

"Injury immunity, open!"

The consciousness from the calf to the foot recovered again, and the control of the body returned to Qi Lin. With a struggle, Qi Lin broke the vine on the ankle abruptly—as the hardness increased, the toughness would inevitably decrease. .

Putting one hand on the ground, he jumped up suddenly, and ran to the deep pit in the middle of the open space recklessly!
Boiling blood only lasts ten seconds, and injury immunity only lasts five seconds. During this short period of time, Qi Lin must kill that - "heart"!
Climbing over the criss-crossing roots and ravines on the ground, Qi Lin rushed to the edge of the deep pit in three steps and two steps. At this time, just as the duration of injury immunity ended, Qi Lin's injured and poisoned right leg softened, and Qi Lin's center of gravity fell instantly. To one side, fell uncontrollably into that deep pit.

"Oh!"

Qi Lin felt his body hit hard on something hard. After the short-term dizziness passed, he took a closer look, only to find that under him was a nuclear warhead that was mostly buried in the soil. Abnormally developed rhizomes, and on these rhizomes, there are many branches with thick and thin hairs, which drilled into the interior of the warhead along the gaps on the surface of the nuclear warhead.

Looking up, the deep pit is about a five or six meter deep shaft, and the surrounding walls are covered with dense roots.

There are faint phosphorescent flashes inside these roots, and the faint blue-green color shows that the substances in them have extremely terrifying radiation concentrations. At this time, the alarm sound of the miniature brain on the wrist can already be described as piercing screams Yes, Qi Lin looked down—the ambient radiation concentration: 894.

"Fortunately, it didn't exceed the upper limit of 1000..."

Qi Lin limped around the warhead, and there was nothing called a "heart" on the outside of the warhead except for the rhizome.

Faced with this situation, Qi Lin suddenly felt helpless.

"Could it be... this warhead is the heart of the Black Forest? Or is the heart inside the warhead? Cooper, have you detected what's inside the warhead?" Qi Lin asked.

"It should be inside the warhead... I can feel a slight sound inside the warhead. The nuclear bomb is a dead object, and it is impossible to make any movement."

"That's okay, it seems that I have to be a bomb disposal expert." I don't know why, the alienated tree demon didn't chase after Qi Lin fell into the deep pit, but that's good, at least it gave Qi Lin a relative A safe and stable environment.

After cleaning a part of the roots above the warhead, Qi Lin inserted the dagger into a gap opened by the roots, pried hard, and pried off a metal shell the size of a palm.

"I hope it doesn't explode suddenly at this time, that would be interesting." Qi Lin muttered.

"Master, you can rest assured that this warhead can no longer detonate."

"That's the best."

Qi Lin did the same, and pried off the surrounding metal shells. These shells were already seriously damaged and deformed, and then they were eroded by the roots of the Black Forest. Removing these metal shells is almost as simple as peeling egg shells. .

After removing two layers of metal casings, Qi Lin removed a bunch of electronic devices that had lost their functions. Finally, a layer of neutron shielding plate made of high-concentration graphite appeared in front of his eyes.

"It should be inside..."

Qi Lin struggled to remove the heavy graphite plate from the metal frame. When the graphite plate was completely removed, the surrounding radiation concentration rose again by dozens of points, and it was already close to the limit that Qi Lin could bear.

Even so, his body also began to feel some discomfort, the skin exposed to the air felt tingling from time to time, and two lines of dark red viscous blood began to slowly flow out from under his nose.

"This...is...the heart?"

This is a less powerful uranium bomb, which belongs to the first generation of nuclear weapons produced in the last century. On the highly enriched uranium block inside, it is covered with roots like capillaries, and at the end of the roots In dense places, there is a translucent "tumor" growing.

This "tumor" is the size of a watermelon, with a very smooth surface, filled with a dark green luminous liquid, and as the internal light source dims or brightens, the "tumor" shrinks and expands accordingly—really like a pulsating tumor. same heart.

"This is the 'heart' of the Black Forest," Cooper said.

"Then how to kill it?" Qi Lin asked.

"It looks...it's very fragile, just try to stab the dagger in it?" Even Cooper, facing this kind of thing he had never seen before, had a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

"Won't it just blow up?" Qi Lin looked at the light bulb-like heart. This thing is a bit like a balloon filled with water. If he stabbed it directly with a dagger, it might burst straight away. , Splash the luminescent liquid inside all over Qi Lin.

"It should explode, but the radiation concentration of the liquid inside will not be higher than the concentration in the current environment, that is to say, it should not hurt the owner."

"Forget it, I'd better be on the safe side..."

Qi Lin took two steps back, pulled out the pistol, opened the safety, and aimed the front sight at the "glowing tumor" - the "heart" of the Black Forest.

Taking a deep breath, Qi Lin tried his best to stabilize his wrist, and then gently pulled the trigger.

"Bah!"
