Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Dots of light spots lit up in the darkness. People from the 10th Department were wearing special protective clothing. There were pieces of bright white crystals on the translucent protective clothing.

This latest type of protective clothing can be used in various environments and is covered in liquid. It can quickly wrap around the body even in the universe and has an oxygen supply function of more than 2 hours.

The oxygen content in the air is now extremely scarce. When Tamai first came down and before activating the protective suit, he felt difficulty breathing. They were already 400 kilometers away from the Brilliant City.

This city was once the largest city on this plateau. Gene took out a cigarette and lit it, and said with a smile.

"Everyone, feel free to walk around and take a look. Be careful not to stray too far away."

The city is not dead, but there are noises everywhere. Those humanoid creatures are moving in the darkness. They have the same characteristics as plantoids and are afraid of light, but they are not as fragile as plantoids. Although their bodies will be burned without fire. Phenomenon, but it cannot be eliminated in a short time by relying on light.

Suddenly, a beast jumped out of the room next to it. It was very fast. Before anyone could see clearly, it was already in front of them. Gene had already stepped over and held down the monster with one hand.

It has a head like a bat, but with huge fangs. Its body is like a leaf, very thin, but its limbs are extremely strong.

People from Section 10 quickly gathered around, and blue particles instantly covered the monster, and the surface of its body began to turn red due to the light.

"It's really scary. Although I've seen it many times before, such a monster is really scary."

Tamai squatted next to the monster. The people from Section 10 quickly extracted this structure similar to biological cells. It was basically the same as what was extracted in the past. Gene exhaled a puff of smoke and smiled helplessly.

"If one day these things gather in large numbers outside of Brilliant City, they will be our biggest threat."

As soon as he finished speaking, the monster had been dismembered into pieces before it could make a sound. Jean scratched his head. Several people from Section 10 took some pieces and put them into the storage box. After that, everyone continued walking.

"Lord Jean, haven't you been to this city before?"

Gene said with a hum.

"At that time, human beings were struggling for survival. The reason why we successfully reached the plateau was because we bypassed the big cities. The situation in the big cities was quite tragic."

Tamai had heard Tang Rao talk about the tragedy when the disaster occurred. Tamai looked at the human buildings nearby. Many of them were already decayed. He walked over and pressed against the wall. With a slight push, the wall was destroyed. Cracks appeared.

"What are you doing Tamai."

shouted a person from Section 10.

Tamai smiled and stepped aside. The ten-story building began to rumble, and then with a huge roar, the building collapsed.

The group of people started running quickly, Jean's face was solemn, and in an instant, Tamai and Jean used telekinesis to drag down several Section 10 members who were not mutants.

A large amount of dust was raised, there was a continuous rumbling sound, and the falling stones shattered into slag. It took more than ten minutes for the commotion to calm down.

"Sorry."

Looking at the disgraced people, Tamai smiled awkwardly. Gene threw away the cigarette in his hand and dusted himself off. He walked to the ruins of the building and everyone walked over.

Numerous small holes appeared on some of the walls that had not yet been broken, which made everyone a little confused. Gene walked over and as soon as he stepped on it, the stone cracked.

These densely packed holes are reminiscent of plant-like, but they are obviously not caused by plant-like, because plant-like will not pass through the wall. It may swallow the wall, but it will never pass through it in this physical form.

People from Section 10 started testing. There were some strange unknown substances in these small holes. They couldn't tell what they were for the time being. They could only take samples back and continue to study them.

Then Tamai went directly and knocked down a house. Sure enough, there was a small hole in the wall of the house. The diameter of this small hole was about 0.5 centimeters.

Jean squatted next to a stone and picked it up carefully. The small holes in the stone made Jean feel strange.

Then everyone started to walk all the way and entered some low houses, and they all discovered that there were small holes on the inside of the walls.

"Could it be left behind by some kind of monster?"

Tamai asked.

"Most likely."

A person from Section 10 answered. Jean took out a cigarette and lit it, then exhaled the smoke. With a click, the stone in Jean's hand cracked and turned into dust. It was very strange.

"what happened?"

Jean also felt confused. They had not been to such a far away place for probably half a century because they were all dealing with the increasingly complex problems in the city.

Gene felt strange. He took a puff of cigarette, then picked up a stone and blew out the smoke. As expected, the stone shattered and turned into dust.

The people in Section 10 also noticed it, and Tamai also found it strange. They quickly took a video, because this situation was a bit difficult to understand, and then the people in Section 10 began to study it.

"I understand, Sir Jean, it's caused by heat energy."

A person from Section 10 said and took the video on the image viewer that was just taken. The temperature had changed very obviously. The smoke that Jean exhaled just now was higher than the stone, so the stone directly shattered. Ruined.

This was the first time they had seen such a situation, and at this time there was also a violent roar in the distance. Everyone probably knew what was going on, because the monsters in this city were all gathered in the north.

To the north was the place where Tang Rao and the others had passed. Everyone moved towards that direction, and soon everyone gathered together and told each other what they had just discovered.

Basically, everyone discovered the small holes in the walls of these buildings. The depth was about 5 centimeters and the width was about 0.5 centimeters. After Gene revealed his discovery, everyone looked at Witte.

Witt is a senior biologist on the scene, Witt said.

"These dusts have the characteristics of cells."

As soon as these words came out, all the 10 biology professionals present nodded.

"Lord Witte, we have the same opinion."

Tang Rao squatted on the ground, grabbed a handful of sand, and then said.

"Are you kidding? These sands look like cells?"

Werther nodded.

"Because I just observed with instruments, these sands are converging, and the form of converging is the same as the behavior pattern of single cells."

Time passed by, and everyone discussed it and decided to continue sailing, because there was no way to figure it out now, so they could only wait for the spacecraft to come back, and the people in Section 10 went back to continue their research.

Just when everyone was about to return to the spacecraft, there was a huge roar not far away. In an instant, a large number of buildings collapsed, violent dust surged over, and the whole city was shaking. Buildings collapsed.

The people from Section 10 quickly boarded the aircraft. Jean and Tang Rao did not go back, but stayed. Witte and Guyi followed the others back.

"Let's go over and have a look later. I can feel what's going on in this city."

As soon as Tang Rao finished speaking, the dust instantly enveloped the two of them, swallowing their bodies.

Everyone who returned to the spaceship looked at the light and shadow screen. It was like a city hit by floods. High-rise buildings collapsed one after another, and everything below looked like a catastrophe.

It took half an hour for everything to calm down, but there was still a lot of dust floating in the air and falling slowly. Witte scratched his head and said.

"It shouldn't be anything."

Apart from those kinds of creatures, there shouldn't be anything else. Gu Yi put his hands on his chin and looked at the situation below. Soon, the screen captured the two people standing on a sand dune, and in front of him It's a red light.

"what is that?"

As soon as Witte finished speaking, what he saw in front of him shocked everyone present. A humanoid monster with a red body, a gray-black body, a round head, and a height of 3 meters. His body had cracked skin and red It just comes from inside.

These red colors, like flowing magma, made people feel very uncomfortable. Gene smoked quietly, and Tang Rao smiled.

"What is this thing?"

Gene shook his head.

"coming soon."

With a swish sound, the monster rushed over and smashed down its huge fist, not slow but with great force.

There was a loud bang, and the ground sank directly. Tang Rao jumped away. Gene did not respond to the enemy head-on, but planned to see how this weird monster attacked.

At this time, an aircraft came over, and Witte and Gu Yi came over with equipment. They had to capture this guy for research.

The monster was still chasing Jean. His strength was probably the same as that of a low-level mutant, his speed was very slow, and his body surface temperature was very high. This was what surprised the four of them.

The surface temperature of this monster's body is as high as over 1,000 degrees. This is what shocked the four people the most. It is the same temperature as magma.

Gradually, the monster began to lose strength and began to slow down. Gene scratched his head and asked.

"How to capture it? It's such a high temperature."

cried Werther.

"The temperature on its body surface is only over 400 degrees."

Gene was a little surprised. At this time, the monster in front of him suddenly rushed over. Gene held it with one hand, making a sizzling sound. Gene's palm was scorched black. He kicked the monster's body and the monster flew out.

"It doesn't feel good."

As soon as Gu Yi finished speaking, the monster stood up after landing, and began to howl with its mouth wide open. Gradually, the temperature on the surface of the monster's body dropped below 100 degrees, and its body began to return to black, and then turned into stones and shattered. .

After everyone passed by, the components of these monsters' bodies were still warm, but the temperature had completely dissipated. Everyone rummaged through the monsters' rubble-like bodies, but found nothing.

"It's unbelievable. This monster is the same as these sands, but why does such a monster appear?"

Gu Yi looked at the situation on the instrument incomprehensibly, and the four of them were puzzled because this situation was too weird.

"We can't leave right away. It's too close to the city. We have to find out before we can leave."

After Gu Yi finished speaking, Gene nodded, but Tang Rao was not very happy.

"Anyway, there's no problem for now. Let's get on the road quickly."

Gene said.

"We must at least be smart about whether the number of such monsters will be very large. Although the monster just now is not strong, the high temperature of its body is very threatening."

Then the four people returned to the spacecraft, and the people in Section 10 began to get busy, making more specific and detailed comparisons between the monster's remains and the sand.

"The world outside has changed."

Gene said, with worry in his eyes, Tang Rao said.

"Definitely, we still know nothing about what is going on in this world. Our current technological capabilities are not enough to allow us to understand the whole world."

Gu Yi laughed helplessly.

"There is no other way. We can only take one step at a time. At least we need to understand what else is in the world further away."

The test results soon came out. Although the monster's body parts were similar to the nearby sand, they were a little different. The tissue parts of his body carried energy, which was unimaginable to everyone.

Soon a new material remnant was extracted, which could carry extremely weak energy. It was about the same as the energy carried by single-celled organisms, or even lower than the energy carried by single-celled organisms. But what amazed everyone the most was that this The size of this substance is 1,000 times smaller than normal atoms.

"During the years when we were cooped up in the city, the world outside may have been turned upside down."

Werther was a little helpless, but he said at this time.

"This thing is a little bit similar to what I used to make."

Gene looked at Werther and then asked.

"Is it a biological weapon you developed to destroy that harmful plant?"

"right."

Tamayi didn't quite understand, so Tang Rao explained it to him, and a group of people gathered over.

"There used to be a highly profitable and addictive plant on this planet that brought too much suffering to the world. Witte's students died from this plant, so he vowed to eliminate it. Plants, and finally he finished his research and brought disaster to the world with insects.”

Everyone couldn't help but look at Werther, and he said helplessly.

"Let me talk about my previous design ideas first. Please note it down carefully. It may be similar to this structure."

Jean looked at the dark world outside with worried eyes, because he always felt that this world was completely different from the world they knew.

At this time, sand was raised again in the distance. This time, the sand was raised to the height of the transport ship.

"Everyone, be careful and be on alert."

After Jean finished speaking, everyone started to rush around. Tang Rao and Gu Yi had already left the room and headed to the outside of the carrier ship.

The cyan light lit up, Tang Rao stood at the rear of the battleship, and Gu Yi beside him looked solemn.

"The situation is not good."
