Dimensional Expedition

Chapter 22: 22. Smooth hair

Views:

Elena couldn't find words to describe the 'creature' she saw before her eyes.

It just lay there quietly. Under the sunlight, no luster could be seen on the steel-covered metal surface, and the various 'barbs' and 'sharp corners' on the surface were filled with a strange oppressive force.

“Is this the horse from your country?”

The last word "horse" was spoken by Elena in Chinese. Lu Cheng was thinking that the girl finally stopped stuttering when speaking Chinese, but when he came to his senses, he found that Elena only said one word.

"It's not a horse, it's a completely different kind of mount."

Lu Cheng walked around the military off-road vehicle and checked its condition. After receiving Lu Cheng's request, the Earth Base modified the vehicle.

Judging from the traces on the vehicle's interfaces, that group of lunatics spent an entire night dismantling the entire shell of the vehicle and rebuilding it in order to deal with the magic and monsters in this world.

"Another mount? Could it be a Jin...Jin...Dou..."

"Stop, please don't continue talking."

Lu Cheng interrupted Princess Elena's speculation, but soon after the interruption, Nuoyi ran to Lu Cheng's side and raised the notebook in his hand.

"Is this the somersault cloud?" Noy used their language to write the three words that Elena did not say.

"How many times have I told you that everything in last night's story is just a legend? This vehicle is called a car... or more complicatedly, a military off-road vehicle."

Lu Cheng didn't sleep the whole night last night. In addition to communicating with the Earth Research Base and measuring the data of this world.

It was probably about telling stories about Journey to the West to Noi, who woke up very early, and Princess Elena.

However, when he woke up this morning, Lu Cheng regretted that he should have chosen a topic that was more in line with reality.

Now, in the eyes of Elena and Noy, that distant and mysterious country is full of people who are able to destroy the world and the sky and travel thousands of miles at a time.

Even though Lu Cheng has emphasized that this is just a fantasy story, but... once the first impression is established, it is difficult to change.

"Car?" Elena repeated it again in Lu Cheng's tone.

The princess had no problem reading one Chinese character, and was okay if she read more than two, but she started to stutter if she read three, and don't expect to hear the fourth character if she read four.

"Iron ring."

Lu Cheng did not explain to the princess what a car was, but directly called out the member of his team who was the best at driving.

"arrive!"

Tiehuan quickly ran to Lucheng and stood in front of him. Lucheng threw a bunch of car keys to Tiehuan, which were given to Lucheng by the research base last night.

"You are responsible for driving this off-road vehicle. Check the condition of the vehicle and prepare to go on the road."

"receive."

Tiehuan took the car key and immediately opened the car door and began to check the condition inside the car.

Lu Cheng was not sure what modifications the people in the research base had made to the vehicle. When they first heard that the enemy from the alien world was a blood crystal beast that was more than two meters in size, they suggested to Lu Cheng whether he should add a 23mm vehicle-mounted chain gun and a grenade launch platform.

After Lu Cheng pondered for a few tenths of a second, he responded directly to them through the intercom, "This car is used to carry people, not to fight monsters. Thank you."

"Is it a living creature?"

Elena climbed down from the back of the walking beast and walked carefully to the side of the off-road vehicle.

The brave princess reached out her hand and gently touched the aluminum alloy surface of the off-road vehicle.

Just when Lu Cheng was about to tell her... that this car was not a living thing, Tiehuan started the engine of the SUV.

The moment the high-power supercharged diesel engine started running, the whole car made a roaring sound, which was no less than the low roar of a huge monster.

The moment the roar sounded, Elena instantly withdrew her hand and took a step back.

General Hubert, who had been watching nearby, immediately ran over to protect Elena.

In their eyes, this huge monster can kill people with one kick when it gets angry!

"It... is angry?" Elena didn't understand what the roar meant.

"Angry? No... Is this the sound you make because you're being caressed? Like this."

Lu Cheng answered Elena jokingly, and at the same time continued to rub the chin of the walking beast with his hand. The walking beast narrowed its eyes and made a "嘤嘤嘤" sound.

"Is that so..."

Elena naively believed Lu Cheng's words. She walked forward again and gently stroked the hood of the SUV with her hand.

Because the iron ring is testing the performance of the car, the roar of the engine will change from time to time.

In Elena's eyes, it seemed like the gurgling sound was caused by the rubbing being so comfortable.

"Can I touch it?" Nuoyi pulled the corner of Lu Cheng's clothes and showed him the four words.

"Of course..." Lu Cheng said.

So Noyi followed Princess Elena and started stroking the military off-road vehicle, as if he was stroking a giant cat.

"Captain, what are they doing?" Feng Kite walked over and asked.

In Feng Zheng's eyes, Elena and Noy's behavior was like that of a kindergarten kid seeing a car for the first time.

"Let's give this car a good massage so we can give it a name," said Lu Cheng.

"Smooth... smooth the fur? Where is the fur in our car that can be smoothed?"

Feng Kite glanced left and right at the military off-road vehicle, which was a specially modified version. It felt like the entire church would be knocked down if he stepped on the accelerator.

"Don't worry about this. Just call them pioneers, kites, and pictorials... You guide these natives to the car."

After Lu Cheng gave the off-road vehicle a name, he issued a new order.

"receive."

Feng Kite immediately ran to the back of the SUV and opened the rear door.

The task of communicating with the indigenous people was given to Lu Cheng.

There were a total of seven refugees in the church, including three men, three women and one child.

"We're going to sit inside it?"

Elena and Nuoyi followed Lu Cheng to the back door of the SUV.

The interior of the vehicle has been modified to have two rows of seats, so it is no problem for ten people to sit in it if they squeeze in a little.

The space opened by the back door looks like a monster opening its huge mouth.

However, this giant beast did not have the flesh and blood that Elena had imagined. Instead, it was still made of steel.

"Can I sit on it for a while?"

Elena looked at Lu Cheng and asked, her scarlet eyes filled with the words "I'm curious".

"Your Highness Elena." General Hubert was still a little worried about the princess riding on this... beast.

"No problem, but if you feel uncomfortable sitting on it, tell me." Lu Cheng was not sure whether these indigenous people who were riding in a car for the first time would get carsick.
