Luke did not land directly on the ground. Instead, he used his armor and drone to quickly scan the environment with the missing location as the center.
Soon, Victoria, the intelligent program of the V-shaped combat suit, summarized the information: there was nothing abnormal.
Everything was just as Claire and Nugget had said. There was no sign of human activity on either side of the narrow, deserted path, or on the cliffs or deep ravines.
He frowned as he looked at the images of the abandoned town transmitted back by the drone.
A vague white fog shrouded the abandoned town, and the drone footage showed the town looking like an illusory ghost town.
Luke slowly floated down to the turning point of the intersection, and the system prompt sounded: Entering the unknown spiritual energy field, the unknown spiritual energy is connecting, do you accept
He did not make a choice immediately, and his figure floated lightly into the town.
After walking more than 200 meters, a gray road sign appeared on the side of the road.
Luke glanced casually: Silent Hill-South Vale.
After marking the location on the map, he continued to fly forward along the path, and couldn't help but complain in his heart about the director's artistic illness.
There is a road on the other side, but I chose to walk around from this small road just to take pictures along the way, and ended up encountering this inexplicable thing.
However, this thought only flashed through my mind.
The system prompt just now indicated that this is an area shrouded in unknown spiritual energy.
The crew has to enter this area anyway, so it doesn't really matter where they come up from, and what happens just depends on luck.
Stacey was clearly the unlucky one.
While thinking, he had already entered the abandoned town.
Primary sound waves are activated, sensitive sense of smell is activated, and drones lock onto the area in segments.
No one.
This is a completely empty city.
The last bit of dark red light in the sky passed through the light white mist, staining the dilapidated old buildings with a layer of dull red, like a chopping board that had been soaked in blood and then rinsed clean.
Not to mention people, there is not even any trace of human movement here.
There was a slight smell of burning coal in the air, and a faint white ash everywhere, slowly falling on his battle suit and cloak.
Luke quietly floated in the air, deep in thought.
After a moment, he had an idea and selected "Yes" on the prompt in the system panel.
In an instant, the smell of burning coal in the air became more than ten times stronger, and the air that was originally harmless to humans was already making people feel noticeably uncomfortable.
At the same time, the mist-like white dust in the air was also increasing rapidly. It was originally as small as sand, but now it can be seen in obvious flakes, like falling snowflakes.
Luke reached out and caught a piece and took a look: this was not snow, but coal ash.
He closed his eyes and felt the moment quietly.
When he opened his eyes again, he raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Interesting, it's not an illusion."
After feeling it for a moment, he shook his head slightly: "But it's not reality either."
As a compound fertilizer with multiple superpowers, a compound talent, Luke's various senses are extremely sharp.
In addition, Tony's knowledge reserves allowed him to analyze various things scientifically and immediately detect the abnormality of this place - the young master's inventions were not scientific, but the knowledge Luke had learned must be shared.
Like now, the propagation of sound waves in the air attenuates extremely quickly and almost disappears in less than ten meters.
Forget about the light, the thick white ash makes it impossible to see anything five meters away.
The air was filled with the smell of burning coal, which greatly interfered with the sensitivity of the sense of smell.
What’s even more strange is that all the drones lost contact and no signals were sent back.
He casually released a drone, and it disappeared after flying five meters away, without any sound or signal.
Luke shook his head, released another drone, and set a simple return command.
The drone rushed into the white ash, disappeared for a moment, and reappeared.
He sighed: "Okay, now I have a full map perspective."
While the drones are functional, real-time signal transmission is limited to a range of five meters, just like sound waves and light.
He can also see and hear within five meters, and it takes less than 0.01 seconds for him to move over. The early warning and reconnaissance functions of the drone are basically useless.
"Interesting point." He murmured, "It actually uses spiritual energy to distort space and even change the laws of physics."
With a complicated expression, he sighed again: "Stacy, you've really gone too far this time!"
In theory, this is Claire's fault.
However, as long as the crew enters the range shrouded by unknown spiritual energy, whether they disappear or not depends on the mood of the owner of this half-true and half-false "world".
If we really have to count the responsibility, we probably have to put it on the director who chose this damn place.
What kind of brain circuit is this? The first choice is a super scary place. Is this director an African-American prince
Complaining in his mind, Luke's body rose rapidly.
The thrusters allowed him to rise nearly a hundred meters into the air in a few seconds, and then he stopped.
Can't fly up anymore!
There is a boundary here. When Luke approaches it, he feels a huge force pressing him back into this world.
Obviously, this is a special cage.
It's easy to get in, but to get out you have to fight with the owner of this place.
It’s possible that Luke could break out by force, but what if his master doesn’t let him in
Stacey was still here, so he didn't have much time to test the waters.
After completing several tests, he did not delay any longer, turned on the thrusters, and flew quickly over the town along the streets.
In just ten seconds, he discovered that the energy consumption of high-speed flight was completely disproportionate to the speed.
Just like rising to a high altitude, when the speed approaches a certain limit, the space will suppress him from continuing to accelerate, and at the same time the energy consumption of the Ark reactor will increase rapidly.
A lot of energy was spent but the speed could not be increased. It was obvious that the owner of this place had distorted some rules.
Although he had a lot of spare Ark reactors, there was no need to start a confrontation now as he hadn't even met the opponent yet.
Thinking of this, he unfolded his cloak behind him and glided silently through the town, with the thrusters only serving as an auxiliary, erupting intermittently.
The town was not big. Luke searched along the grid-like streets and soon made a discovery.
This is the main road leading into the town from the outside, but there is a break in the road leading out of the town.
Standing at the gap, you can’t see anything on the other side, and there is a bottomless abyss under your feet.
Luke casually threw a piece of metal debris from the storage space down. There was no echo, and it seemed to be swallowed by the abyss.
In fact, he could still feel that the abyss of the fracture was the same as the limitation of a hundred meters in the air.
Once you try to fly over here, you will be pressed down by a huge force and eventually fall into the abyss.
After briefly testing the fracture, he no longer paid attention to it and looked at the ground not far away.
On the ground covered with thick white ash, there were a few barely visible traces.
These are footprints.
Luke quickly locked onto a pair that was close to the size of Stacey's feet.
He immediately turned and followed the three sets of footprints.
A few seconds later, a strange corpse, a severely corroded police helmet and a police jacket appeared on the ground more than a hundred meters away.
At this point, the three sets of footprints separated.
Stacey is with the woman in boots, probably the policewoman.
And another set of footprints left directly from the other side.
