withering day

Chapter 23

Han Mo, Shui Hanjiang, Xiang Xin, Jiang Xiaoxue, and Yan Wei waited for the people in the secret room on the ground. Han Mo played with the strange spar in his hand. He always felt that there was something wrong with this spar. Every time it touches the skin, there is always an inexplicable feeling, like a weak electric current passing through the body.

Jiang Xiaoxue's health is still poor, and no matter how much rest she can't recover to her original state, it is foreseeable how serious the withering outside is.Xiang Xin could only worry on the sidelines, there was nothing she could do.

"I saw it..." Jiang Xiaoxue, who was weak, seemed to be a little dazed, and said dully.

Han Mo squatted down and asked softly, "What did you see?"

"I saw...the whole world is withering, it has... spread to the Xia Kingdom, all the plants are dying, and the animals are also rapidly becoming extinct..."

The other four were silent. As the executor of the first day, Jiang Xiaoxue was really pitiful. She was only 19 years old.

Suddenly, Han Mo saw the spar in his hand flicker. Although it was only a sporadic spot of light, he still noticed it.He squatted down and hesitantly put the spar on Jiang Xiaoxue's hand. A strange thing happened. Jiang Xiaoxue's black fingers slowly faded in the light blue light, but they still couldn't completely disappear. There is a trace of black blood thread tenaciously sticking to the fingertips like the roots of a plant.

effective!Both Shui Hanjiang and Xiang Xin were shocked. Jiang Xiaoxue's dazed expression gradually eased. She looked at her hands and said excitedly, "I feel strong again! It seems that my illness is cured!"

The five of them were a little excited, and no one expected that this strange spar would have such an effect.But when Han Mo frowned and took back the spar, the blackness on Jiang Xiaoxue's fingertips immediately began to spread, he sighed, and said, "It seems that this spar can only be placed on your body." It works... see if they can find something down there, maybe there is a solution."

After what Han Mo said, Jiang Xiaoxue's gloomy eyes instantly brightened up, and she had a glimmer of new hope!

Below the laboratory, the scientific research team led by Luo Zhan and six other executors were nervously searching for useful information, but after the weightless force field disappeared, the falling stones seriously damaged the secret room, and many instruments were broken , only some placed in the corners are still intact.

Shen Mingxi rummaged through the ruins, and finally found something among the rubble: "Look, I found a strange thing!" He pulled a rectangular thing out of the rocks.

This is a rectangular pillar, the material is unknown, it looks like glass, but why it was still intact when the rocks fell down really surprised everyone.If Han Mo and Shui Hanjiang were here, they would recognize that this pillar was the one where the spar was stored before. Their eyes were all on the spar, and they didn't find anything strange about this pillar at all.

"This doesn't seem to be glass, glass is not so hard!" Luo Zhan tapped the pillar with a small hammer, and immediately there was a crisp sound echoing in the secret room.

"There seems to be words inside..." Gu Changxi pointed to the transparent pillar and said.

Luo Zhan took out a magnifying glass and observed carefully on the pillar. Sure enough, as Gu Changxi said, there were many small characters engraved on the transparent pillar, densely packed. The texture is directly ignored.

"Ke Teng, give me the pen and paper!" As Luo Zhan called out, a scientific researcher immediately took out the pen and paper from the backpack, and then found a metal plate for Luo Zhan to lay on.

There are a lot of characters in the pillars, and they are very unfamiliar to Luo Zhan, so he can only copy them slowly one by one.As time passed, more and more words were written on the paper, and sweat dripped from Luo Zhan's forehead. He wanted to take a break, but once he rested, he might not be able to remember where he copied it.

After more than an hour, Luo Zhan finally stood up, stretched his stiff body, and sighed: "It's finally over, Mr. Lin, see if you can briefly interpret the content above."

An older scientific researcher took the paper, put on his glasses and began to interpret it himself.

"Hey, what's going on down here?" Yan Wei's voice came from the ground, they waited for a long time above but there was no movement, they were a little anxious.

"Some discoveries are being interpreted, and others are still being searched!" Li Siran replied.

Outside, Jiang Xiaoxue had completely regained her vitality. Han Mo tied the spar with a rope and hung it around her neck to suppress the withering in her body.The longer the time, the more Han Mo felt that something was wrong. It was really quiet, and none of the monsters appeared. It is impossible to say that it was the effect of the spar, or the group of monsters before would not have gathered here place.

Approaching the Shuihan River, Han Mo said worriedly: "I always feel that something is wrong, should I leave here?"

Shui Hanjiang was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent for a while. Han Mo's intuition has not been missed so far, and he immediately shouted to the people in the secret room: "Come up quickly, the situation seems to have changed!"

The people in the secret room were startled, and they didn't care about deciphering the words in the pillars, and began to climb out of the secret room along the rope.Luo Zhan, who was at the end of the queue, looked at the pillar and tied it to a rope. After he climbed out of the secret room, he pulled his team members up to the pillar as well.

When Han Mo and Shui Hanjiang saw the pillar, they were taken aback for a moment, a little weird: "Isn't this the pillar where the spar was stored before? How did you get it up? And...why wasn't it smashed? Isn't this glass?" ?”

"We found a lot of words in the pillars..." Old General Lin handed the paper full of words to Han Mo for a look.

Han Mo and Shui Hanjiang looked at each other, and smiled wryly: "It turns out that we have been ignoring it all the time, and almost missed it. Have you deciphered the above content?"

Mr. Lin shook his head and sighed: "It's difficult, very difficult. It took us ten years to decipher the content of the text found in the last ruins. I don't know what to analyze for this large content. when."

"Let's not talk about that, let's leave this place first, I always feel that there is an unknown danger that is about to come, which is completely different from the feeling given by those monsters before!" Han Mo said seriously to everyone.

Everyone had to believe in Han Mo's perception, because it was his perception that saved them from the bad luck of being attacked and killed by monsters.Without saying anything, Yan Wei, who was physically strong, was responsible for carrying the pillar, and the rest of the luggage was distributed to other people, and Jiang Xiaoxue, who had recovered temporarily, also shared part of it.

"Xiaoxue, are you alright?" Lu Liang Qianqian was a little surprised when she saw Jiang Xiaoxue who was alive and kicking.

"It's the function of that spar. That spar seems to be able to suppress the power of withering, but it still can't completely solve the problem... Maybe there is an answer in these words, I hope it can be deciphered soon."

After leaving the ruins, everyone explored in another direction. Now they have no guidance at all, so they can only slowly explore this underground space by themselves.Luo Zhan and other scientific researchers sighed a little. The excavation of this ruin is only a little bit, which is a great pity for their archaeologists, because no one knows whether this place will be found again in the future.

When he was about to leave the city gate, the danger Han Mo felt became more and more intense. He urged everyone to stay away from this area, but just as they stepped out of the ruins, the entire underground space trembled. Starting from the center of the ruins, the ground collapsed, and a black abyss spread rapidly. Every time it passed a place, the entire area there would sink into the abyss and disappear.In less than a few minutes, the dilapidated city wall completely collapsed, and the entire ruins have been completely lost. There is only a huge hole left in the space in front of everyone, which is bottomless.

Han Mo and his party were afraid for a while. If Han Mo hadn't reminded them, they might have been wiped out and buried in the abyss just now.

The ruins have disappeared, and everyone has no reason to stay. After reorganizing their luggage, they start to stay away from this area, because no one knows whether the abyss will expand again.What they don't know is that the surface of the planet has completely turned into gray and dark, all plants are completely withered, animals are extinct, and human beings are also beginning to face a new crisis, food supply is insufficient!For food, all countries in the world that had been at peace for a long time have started wars. Although the flames of war have not yet spread to the Xia Kingdom, the people of the Xia Kingdom have already begun to feel insecure.

God's Right Hand Research Institute, the high-level meeting has begun, all the personnel are concentrated in the conference center, the atmosphere is a bit heavy, they have received the news that the scientific research camp in the Chiyan Basin of the Weiling Plateau has disappeared inexplicably, and the border guards have received a distress signal and rushed to When I was there, the entire Chiyan Basin had turned into ruins, and what was strange was that no one was found in the ruins, no corpses, not even bloodstains, and it was impossible to understand what happened.

The border guards called up the camp's camera, and could only vaguely see a flash of light, followed by various screams and cries. At the end, the entire camp had been turned into ruins.And from the previous video data, we can learn that two elite teams went down into the underground ruins and never came out again.

"The cause of the video recording problem has been found out. It is a strong electromagnetic interference. During that period of time, almost all electronic equipment failed. Because the surveillance camera is an independent system and is far away from the interference center, it can record some blurred images. picture and sound."

"Could it be an attack from a neighboring country?"

"Probably not. Although there are several countries bordering on the Weiling Plateau, none of them can sneak into the Weiling Plateau without anyone noticing it.

"It's strange why no body was found at the scene. Where did they all go?"

These high-level leaders were discussing, and the dean suddenly frowned and interrupted them: "I am more concerned about the situation of those who entered the underground ruins. I wonder if they have been affected?"

"The electromagnetic interference at the scene has disappeared. We have used the most advanced instruments to detect a range of several kilometers, and indeed found some signs of life, but...they are already very far away from the elevator that goes straight to the ground, and they seem to be heading towards the snow mountain. Direction forward!"

"Can you get in touch with them?"

"No, compared to the ground, the electromagnetic interference in the underground space is several times stronger. If they were directly facing our feet, they might still be able to connect with us, but now they are so far away..."

"We still have to find a way to save them!"

"The country has arranged for more than a dozen special forces to carry out rescue work, but the elevator has not been repaired, so we can only wait and see."

The dean sighed. In just a few months, too many incredible things happened in the world. On the first day of the Apocalypse called Withering, the camp in the Chiyan Basin was attacked for no reason, and the scientific expedition team in the underground space got lost. Direction... These are really a bit unprepared for them, but they can't do anything about it.Perhaps this world is really terminally ill, and is about to enter the final destruction.
