Crane's Ark of Tomorrow Daily

Listening to other people's conversations, Li Ke took a few steps forward, came to the edge of the cliff ahead, and looked down with the searchlight on his helmet.

No matter how he adjusts the focus of the searchlight, he can't see where the ground below is. They are at least 1000 meters above the sky. If they fall directly from this height, the protective clothing on them will not be able to protect them at all. .

It is true that Li Ke can use anti-gravity spells through Sea of ​​Stars, but he did not tell the people in Rhodes Island about this, so they will definitely not include anti-gravity spells in the mission plan.

So here comes the question... how do they get down from such a high place?Since Rhode Island has been here before, they should have a corresponding plan.

After discussing the issue of the Durin people with Huang, Amiya came to the edge of the broken wall, pointed to a well-preserved building in the center of the city below and said, "Our next goal... is to enter there."

"The previous research materials on ore disease were discovered there."

A research institute built in the heart of the city... There is no more conspicuous target than this.

With that said, Amiya walked to one side of the stone wall and bent down, stretched out her hands and groped back and forth on it.

After a while, Amiya's hand stopped at a certain position on the wall, and then pressed down hard, and a palm-shaped groove was immediately pressed out on the hard wall.

Quietly, a huge floating platform rose from the darkness below.

"Let's take this down."

"However, I don't know what the maximum load capacity of this platform is. For safety's sake, we'd better go down in batches."

-------------------------------------

In the end they decided to go down three times. The first one to go down was the heaviest ACE, and then everyone except Huang, and Huang was the last.

As the platform slowly descended, the distance between them and the city below was getting closer and closer, and everything in the city was more clearly displayed in front of their eyes.

It is not difficult to deduce from the few ruins of the city that it was magnificent when it was intact.

Even so, no matter how magnificent the city was, it was hard to resist the erosion of time. After thousands of years passed, all that remained were the ruins before their eyes.

But even if the city has become a ruin, it still hasn't returned to silence. The owners here are all dead, but their creations have survived in another way.

As soon as he stepped off the suspended platform, ACE saw this strange scene in front of him.

In front of him was an extremely spacious road. The houses on both sides of the road had all collapsed, but there didn't seem to be any traces of man-made damage.

Judging from ACE's shallow knowledge, the nearby buildings should be used for civilian purposes. As time passed, the materials deteriorated, the structural strength decreased, and the buildings could not support their own weight, which led to the collapse.

And those non-civilian buildings, such as the research institute that Amiya referred to at the beginning, still maintain a sound structure.

It's just...somewhat strangely that ACE didn't see even a speck of dust on the ground nearby.

The ground paved with an unknown matte metal material was cleaned so brightly that ACE could even see his own blurry reflection on it.

Just when ACE was feeling suspicious, there was a strange noise from an alley not far ahead.

A bloody head protruded from the alley.

Amid the "creaking" sound from the cervical spine, the head turned 180 degrees straight, and the only remaining electronic eye on the cheek suddenly glowed red, and locked on the direction of ACE.

"!!"

Oops!been discovered!

Like a thunderbolt exploding in ACE's mind, ACE lowered his center of gravity without any thought, put on a defensive posture, and prepared to meet the opponent's attack.

Facing this kind of enemy for the first time, ACE did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

But... nothing happened.

The red light in the mechanical one-eye dimmed in the next second, and the infected prosthetic body seemed to have not seen ACE, crawled past ACE as if nothing had happened, and disappeared into the alley at the other end.

"..." The corner of ACE's mouth twitched, and he didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry, the area we are in now is a 'safe zone'." Amiya's voice came from behind.

ACE turned around and saw that the second group of people had also successfully reached the ground, and they also saw the thrilling scene that ACE encountered just now.

"...Safe zone? Can there be a safe zone??"

Just as Amiya was thinking about how to explain it, another infected prosthetic body appeared not far ahead.

Except for the different infected parts, these prosthetic bodies are surprisingly identical in appearance, just like those mannequins placed in the mall, they are completely carved out of the same mold.

The lower body of the prosthetic body that appeared in front of them was distorted. Where there should have been two legs, it turned into gastropods that only molluscs have. While it was wriggling forward, it also dragged out behind it. There was a long string of dark red blood.

Amiya took a few steps forward, crossed an invisible boundary, then casually condensed a red and black energy bullet, aimed at the deformed prosthetic body and threw it, hitting its head impartially .

The red and black energy bomb hit the deformed prosthetic body's head, but it was like a drop of water falling into the sea, without a single ripple.

Amiya's attack didn't work, but her behavior still managed to attract the attention of the deformed prosthetic body. After letting out a shrill scream, she wriggled on the ground and rushed towards this side.

Although it can only crawl forward on the ground, its crawling speed is not slow at all, just like a truck driving at high speed, surrounded by the sound of howling wind, the distance of more than 100 meters is covered in just a few seconds. was crossed.

ACE didn't have time to blame Amiya for his reckless behavior just now. When he just raised his shield and wanted to stand in front of Amiya and take the attack instead of her, Amiya moved a step faster than her.

"do not go!"

Amiya jumped back slightly, returned to the position where she was standing before, and stopped ACE's movement by the way.

At this time, the deformed prosthetic body has rushed to a close distance, and no matter what you do at this time, it is too late to stop its sprinting trend.

Very abruptly, as if there was an invisible barrier between Amiya and the deformed prosthetic body, its collision stopped instantly.

Now the distance between it and Amiya is less than half a meter, as long as it moves forward a little, it can crush Amiya's petite body into pieces.
