Scavenging Notes: I am the Lucky Star of the End Times

This chameleon's IQ is obviously not low, as it was not lured away by Xie Yuan's strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain!

Xu Sansan frowned slightly, her eyes fixed on the giant chameleon in front of her that was rolling its eyes towards her and Qin Ergou.

The two sides were in a stalemate for one second, and the giant chameleon on the opposite side turned its left eye forward 180 degrees, while its right eye turned backward less than 90 degrees.

Xu Sansan stared at the giant chameleon that was only concerned with rolling its eyes, and was stunned for a moment. What's going on? Why don't you move?

Wouldn't it be a waste of both sides' time if the stalemate continued like this? !

Now is the rush to harvest stage, time is money!

Xu Sansan gave Qin Ergou a look and handed him the high-energy knife, meaning, you are responsible for watching this monster, and I will go to pick the fruit.

Qin Ergou took the high-energy knife and nodded. Then he raised the plunger with one hand and gestured with the high-energy knife with the other, threatening the giant chameleon in front of him:

"Come on! Let me show you how powerful I, the Plunger, am!"

The giant chameleon standing not far away and not taking any further action also had a lot of question marks on its forehead. It had already changed its skin color to pure sand color. It should have completely blended in with the sand dunes behind it, but how come these two bipeds seemed to be able to see it?

It kept rolling its eyes, puzzled.

Of course, this giant chameleon didn't know that the reason Xu Sansan and Qin Ergou could distinguish its shape so easily was entirely because of the night vision goggles they were wearing!

One of the principles of night vision goggles:

In the absence of sufficient light source, it will automatically capture the infrared heat energy emitted by surrounding objects and create images through thermal energy.

So at the beginning, when the giant chameleon appeared imitating the red light of the dragon fruit, Xu Sansan and Qin Ergou could clearly distinguish the color on it. But when the red light faded and the chameleon matched its color with that of the sand dunes, Xu Sansan and Qin Ergou watched it disappear on the spot and merge with the sand dunes behind it.

But the next second, the thermal imaging function of the night vision goggles was automatically turned on, and the shape of the giant chameleon naturally appeared again.

And this makes us have to look back and sigh at the power of those mutant poisonous scorpions that flicker in and out of focus!

Not only can they create false light illusions, but they can also use flickering light effects to disrupt the thermal imaging self-starting function of night vision goggles.

Xu Sansan has taken out the third sack and started picking the mutant dragon fruits.

Meanwhile, Qin Ergou was still in a stalemate with the giant chameleon staring at each other...

One minute later, suddenly, there was another "whoosh" sound, and the giant chameleon's long tongue suddenly stretched out, and Qin Ergou immediately drew his knife!

But just as he drew his sword, the giant chameleon's eyes moved, and the two-legged beast could really see him!

It turns out that the long tongue just now was just a test!

Seeing that he had missed the opportunity, the giant chameleon immediately stretched out its hind legs to the left and right. With a "rustle" sound, its body quickly turned, and its long tail swept up the dust on the ground and swung it towards Qin Ergou!

Qin Ergou bent his legs slightly, and at the moment the long tail flew towards him, he contracted his waist and abdomen and quickly jumped into the air. The soles of his shoes rubbed against the scales on the giant chameleon's tail, and he barely avoided the attack.

The giant chameleon failed to hit the target with its tail sweep, and did not dare to fight, so it quickly dug the sand with its four legs alternately, and started running away with a "ho ho ho" sound!

"Where to escape!"

Qin Ergou's two short legs also moved quickly, following the giant chameleon, waving a leather plunger and breaking through the sand in the sand mist.

Xu Sansan is still working as a fruit harvester in the "mutated dragon fruit planting base" and is not complaining.

When the sixth sack was half full, the detection data from the optical computer suddenly came out:

"Ding! Moderate pollution, can be used!"

what happened?

Xu Sansan immediately took out another sack and packed the moderately contaminated dragon fruits that had just been discovered separately.

And a strange thing happened. In the next 5 minutes, all that were detected in the optical brain were mutated dragon fruits with moderate contamination. There was not even a single slightly contaminated one!

Could it be... that after maturity, it will be immediately polluted by the Lost Desert, causing the mild pollution to gradually turn into moderate pollution, and then into...

Xu Sansan was making a bold guess when a warning sound suddenly came from his brain: "Ding! Severe pollution!"

The mechanical sound immediately confirmed her inference!

really!

Has it become heavily polluted? !

She was still a little unwilling, so she continued to test the center of the dragon fruit base.

Unfortunately, tonight's quota of miracles has been used up.

The mutated pitayas tested next were all, without exception, heavily contaminated.

Well, Xu Sansan looked at the five and a half bags of lightly contaminated mutant dragon fruits tied up on the cart and quickly estimated the number. There were about 5-6 fruits in one bag on average, which meant more than 7 in total. Excluding the five that needed to be handed in for the mission, there should be about 30 left.

Well, although there are not many of them, they are big enough!

Xu Sansan nodded, quite satisfied with the harvest.

At this moment, suddenly, her breathing stagnated and her heart suddenly tightened——

"Dong-dong-dong-!"

My heartbeat started to slow down again!

Her pupils were dilated, and a faint voice in her mind called out softly:

"Come on! I'm here!

Come quickly! "

Xu Sansan blinked and refocused her eyes. She frowned and stared at the center of the "Dragon Fruit Planting Base" in front of her. A strong curiosity rose in her heart:

Who is calling me?

What's inside?

She followed the powerful attraction, pulling the cart, and quickly walked through the dense dragon fruit forest.

The thick leaves of the pitaya have sharp thorns and overlap densely from the 3-meter-high root column.

The dense dragon fruit forest, which was originally surrounded by thick leaves and was impenetrable, should have been impossible for a cart to pass through easily.

But the magical thing is that when Xu Sansan walked deeper alone, a very faint colorful light suddenly appeared around her.

The moment the colorful light came on, the pitaya leaves piled up around them, as if under a spell and hypnotized, began to roll up on their own with a rustling sound, leaving a path more than one meter wide for Xu Sansan and the cart behind her.

Xu Sansan pursed his lips tightly, looking at the strange scenes around him, his mind racing, becoming more and more uneasy but excited:

God!

This is the treatment a time-traveling woman deserves, okay!

When she took small, anxious steps and finally came to the center point, she looked at the still curled leaves and the tightly gathered thorns around her, and the evil-sounding words "Stand up" were about to come out of her mouth.

Suddenly, a golden light appeared!

She stared at the ground below, where wisps of golden light were overflowing, as if the sand was burying priceless treasures. She couldn't help but widen her eyes.

At the same time, far above the oasis that the Quartet team first encountered, a large rock that was covered by Xie Yuan and Hu Ba together had been overturned to the side.

There was a rustling sound under the sand. A huge black and red figure was quickly crossing the sand dune and rushing towards Xu Sansan, who was still standing in a daze in the center of the dragon fruit!
