[Environmental Pollution-13]
Jiang Pingce used the coordinate system formula to fly his teammates through several streets in a row. When his skills were about to cool down, he let everyone fall to the ground.
The density of sand and dust in the air was higher than that on the ground, and the wind was strong at night, and everyone was freezing and sneezing. Liu Zhaoqing coughed a few times and resisted the dryness of his throat. He typed on the research group channel and asked, "Has our base location been exposed?"
Xu Yishen replied: "It shouldn't be. Everyone was arrested halfway, and it was still two kilometers away from the base at that time."
Yue Xingwen said: "I checked when I returned to the base with Ping Ce and Ke Shao, and there was no sign of the wooden board covering the entrance being moved, and no other people's footprints were found around. But I am worried that we are selling oranges today. The road has been back and forth many times, and if someone is followed, they may have found our hiding place."
Ke Shaobin said: "I also think that they may have been staring at us for a long time in secret."
Zhuo Feng frowned and said, "What is the origin of these people?"
Xu Yi sighed deeply and said, "You guys were anesthetized and locked up again. I don't know what these lunatics are doing. Right next to the cell where you are being held, there is a kitchen. I saw a lot of human amputations and a Cauldron."
Zhang Xiaonian looked terrified: "Senior brother, do you mean that they are eating human flesh?"
Xu Yishen nodded: "Yes. If we don't escape in time, I guess their next plan is to force us to ask us the origin of those oranges and ask us to hand over resources. If we don't listen, they will kill everyone and eat them."
The faces of the teammates who had just escaped from the prison became more ugly.
Fortunately, Xu Yishen changed his cells in advance because he was lazy and escaped the catastrophe; and the support speed of Xingwen, Pingce and Ke Shaobin was fast enough that they could escape without any danger.
Otherwise it is unimaginable.
Yue Xingwen said: "These issues will be discussed later. Where shall we go next? Return to the base first?"
Jiang Pingce said calmly: "The base is not necessarily safe. I think we have to live in another place."
With Zhang Xiaonian here, a base can be built at any time. It's easy to change places. It's just that the supplies left at the base...
Xu Yishen said: "Those quilts, beds, and tens of thousands of liters of water that have already been made, it would be a pity to just give up. As long as Qin Lu's plate movement skills are refreshed, they can be moved."
Ke Shaobin added: "There are also three large bags of vegetables we bought in the supermarket, which cost more than 500 yuan, and it is a pity to throw them away. We can no longer go out to make money as recklessly as we do today. Those vegetables are enough for us to eat for a week. ."
Yue Xingwen looked at the small picture leading the way: "Xiaotu, what time is it?"
Before, Xiaotu could only recognize Ke Shaobin's voice, but now it can recognize the voices of all the team members. Hearing this sentence, it immediately reported: "At 23:30 in the evening, it is very late, you should go to bed!"
In half an hour until 24:00, Qin Lu's skills can be refreshed.
Yue Xingwen said: "Well, I will go back to the base with Senior Brother Xu and Qin Lu to sort out the materials in the base and move them together at 24 o'clock. The others will hurry up and build another base."
Jiang Pingce asked, "Where is the place to choose?"
Yue Xingwen thought for a while and said, "The top of the mountain." He looked at his teammates and explained, "The residents of this city rarely go to the mountains. First, the air on the mountain is worse than the ground, and there is too much dust. It is easy to cause difficulty in breathing; secondly, the mountain is bare and no grass grows, and there is not much scenery to see when climbing up. It is the safest to choose where as the base.”
Lin Manluo said: "Xiao Nian can dig a big hole on the top of the mountain and build a new base, but the air quality on the top of the mountain is very poor. My green trees can only be purified for 1 hour a day. Can you bear it?"
Xin Yan suddenly said, "I have a way."
Lin Manluo looked back at him, and Xin Yan continued: "I can use a distillation bottle to collect fresh air and seal the bottle. As long as the alcohol lamp is not heated, the distillation bottle can be used as a temporary 'air reserve bottle'. When it cools, we can turn on the fresh air in the decanter to breathe.”
Ke Shaobin's eyes lit up: "In this way, will we have a steady stream of fresh air?!"
Xin Yan nodded: "Theoretically yes. Because Senior Sister's air purification is range purification, there is no capacity limit, and the air will flow all the time. In one hour, I can store a large number of air bottles."
When the teammates heard this, they all sighed with emotion - the distillation bottle of the Chemistry Department is really a universal thing!
Not only can it make distilled water, cook porridge, and cook vegetables, but it can also be used as a container at any time. Using a distillation bottle as a temporary "air bottle" can indeed solve the current problem.
Yue Xingwen simply said: "Let's do it like this. Pingce, you lead the team up the mountain, I will go back to the base with Senior Brother Xu and Qin Lu. Make a navigation map on your way up the mountain, and then send the route to Qin Lu directly in the research team. ."
Jiang Pingce looked at Yue Xingwen and whispered, "Be careful."
Yue Xingwen nodded: "You are also careful, every five minutes, the research group channel will call 1 to confirm."
The crowd separated at the fork, and Yue Xingwen, Xu Yishen and Qin Lu returned to the base.
Just now, in order to find teammates as soon as possible, Ke Shaobin placed the three big bags of vegetables from the supermarket under the wooden board at the entrance of the base. Xu Yishen said, "I'll go down and explore the way first."
He quickly mitotically produced five copies, lifted the plank and entered the base. After a while, the words from Xu Yishen appeared on the research group channel: "No one has been underground, they probably haven't had time to attack our stronghold, hurry up."
Yue Xingwen and Qin Lu followed closely into the house. Qin Lu quickly collected the quilts and sheets from all the rooms and put them together with a few wooden piers in the living room. Packed vegetables are packed and placed on wooden table.
"The water over the warehouse must also be removed so that no one can find it."
Qin Lu nodded and said, "I can only use plate transposition 12 times. Can I finish moving so many things?"
Yue Xingwen said: "12 times is enough, and Pingce will give you accurate angles and data. It is less than one kilometer from here to the foot of the mountain. Change positions once to move things to the foot of the mountain, and then change positions again to reach the top of the mountain. ."
Plate transposition does not require things to be on the same horizontal plane, and it can also be transposed upwards.
At 24:00 in the morning, the news of Jiang Pingce appeared on the research group channel: "Are you ready? First straight ahead 400 meters, and then tilted at a 45-degree angle to go up 513 meters."
Qin Lu immediately typed: "Received."
The three began to move, and after changing positions twice in a row, they appeared on a flat field at the top of the mountain.
Judging from the level of the ground, it is obvious that Zhang Xiaonian used a bulldozer and then a road roller to level it. Not far from the side, Zhang Xiaonian has dug a large pit, and is in the process of laying a concrete floor and building an anti-vibration wall.
Xu Yishen smiled and jokingly said, "Little Junior Brother, this is one person supporting an engineering team!"
The excavator in Zhang Xiaonian's hands is like a Transformer. It can turn into a bulldozer in a moment, a road roller and a mixer in a moment. The construction speed of his one-man engineering team is more efficient than that of hundreds of workers.
In a blink of an eye, Zhang Xiaonian built a new base. He also remodeled the original design plan. The two bathrooms were twice as large as the original base, so that Xin Yan could be separated into several bathrooms.
Zhang Xiaonian ran over out of breath and said, "It's time to move things!"
Qin Lu immediately changed positions and quickly moved things into the "new home". The teammates also walked down the steps into the new basement and assigned their own bedrooms.
Yue Xingwen walked to Jiang Pingce and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to destroy the base at the foot of the mountain?"
Jiang Pingce agreed: "Well, if those people find out, there will be endless troubles."
Yuexing Wenchao Zhang Xiaonian beckoned: "Xiao Nian, work hard, let's go back to the foot of the mountain and level the previous base."
Zhang Xiaonian said: "Okay!"
Qin Lu came over and asked, "Do you need me to take you back?"
Yue Xingwen smiled and said, "No, you have a limited number of skills, so keep them for now. It's the same for Pingce to send us in the past with a parabola."
Jiang Pingce came here to do map navigation. He knew the specific coordinates of the base, and a parabola from the top of the mountain could directly send the three to the gate of the base.
Zhang Xiaonian summoned the bulldozer, and the underground base was instantly destroyed under the action of the construction bulldozer.
After cleaning up their tails, the three parabolically returned to the top of the mountain.
The teammates were still packing their things. Seeing the three of them coming back, Xu Yishen took the initiative to come over and ask, "Have they all been cleaned up?"
Yue Xingwen nodded: "Well, the bases built by the School of Architecture are all shock-proof walls, which can only be destroyed by the bulldozers of the School of Architecture. After the destruction, the ground will return to its original state. Even if they find it, they will not see any traces."
Everyone is relieved to hear this.
The mountain is not high. From the top of the mountain, the whole city is hazy, all buildings are shrouded in a layer of yellow sand, there is no light, and no starlight can be seen.
The lifeless city makes people feel depressing to stay for one more day.
The 12 people stood on the top of the mountain in silence for a moment. Zhang Xiaonian coughed a few times and said, "Everyone, go back to the house. Can Sister Manluo turn on the air purification? The wind and sand are too heavy, cough, cough... I can hardly breathe."
Lin Manluo said: "Okay, everyone go back to the house."
Everyone walked into the underground base along the steps, and Liu Zhaoqing blocked the entrance with the prepared wooden board.
Lin Manluo summoned the green trees, and the surrounding air instantly became extremely fresh and clean. Everyone took off their masks one after another and took a deep breath like the nectar of a long drought. After breathing in fresh air for half a minute, I finally recovered.
Xin Yan began to collect air with a distillation bottle, while the others sat on the wooden pier and chatted about the next plan.
Yue Xingwen looked at Jiang Pingce and asked, "What do you think about that bandit organization? Are we going to hide here and pass the 14-day customs clearance, or go to them to settle the account?"
Zhuo Feng said angrily: "That's all a bunch of mad thugs! If you just saw us selling oranges, greedy, grabbed us and wanted to grab resources, I can still understand, after all, the world's resources are scarce, it's our fault , being missed. But... they actually eat people! Fuck, it's disgusting!"
Jiang Pingce said coldly: "In this world, it is difficult for plants to survive, and the cost of raising animals is also very high. People can't eat several meals of meat all year round, and the most accessible meat food - isn't it human?"
Ke Shaobin shook the goose bumps on his back, resisted the urge to vomit, and said, "I would starve to death, and I wouldn't want to eat people. It's terrible. These people have lost their humanity..."
Lin Manluo's face was extremely serious.
This is the vicious circle caused by environmental pollution.
Water and soil are polluted and plants cannot grow.
Without sufficient plants, it is difficult to raise livestock and poultry. As a result, humans cannot afford fresh vegetables and fruits, let alone fresh meat products. They can only rely on tasteless compressed biscuits to satisfy their hunger day after day.
Struggling to survive in the environment of long-term air pollution, gradually, some people lose their humanity and begin to rely on shameful means such as robbery and murder to survive. Later, the murderers began to eat people, and the killed were powerless to resist...
People do not know how long to survive in such a harsh environment
Lin Manluo sighed and said, "With our strength, we can't change anything. The world-wide environmental deterioration does not happen overnight. The soil, water, and air pollution control here, let alone a few days, even a few days. It may not be completed in a few years or a dozen years, and it may require the efforts of several generations."
It takes a very long time for environmental problems to be improved. But it is very easy to destroy.
The environment of this world has become like this. It is their ancestors' own evil. No matter how many abilities the 183 research group has, they can't change the world into a blue sky and white clouds.
Everyone was silent for a moment, and Yue Xingwen said: "We have unfinished oranges, vegetables, water, fresh air and compressed biscuits. It is no problem to hide here and survive until customs clearance. As for whether or not the organization should deal with it, everyone decides."
Jiang Pingce glanced at Yue Xingwen.
Under the light of the alcohol lamp, Xingwen's face turned pale. He was busy all day today and went to rescue his teammates against the cold wind at night. His physical condition is obviously not very good.
Jiang Pingce touched Xingwen's hand lightly in the dark, and found that his fingers were cold, he immediately said, "It's too cold here, why don't you make a fire to keep warm."
Before Lin Manluo's tree was put away, Liu Zhaoqing sawed some branches as materials, and Xin Yan lit a fire with an alcohol lamp.
Everyone gathered around the fire, chatting while heating the fire, and suddenly felt much more comfortable.
Yue Xingwen said: "Sister Manluo is right, the environment here is hopeless, unless they are willing to spend several generations to slowly manage it. We passers-by can't help much at all, there are still 12 days. , we'll go back to the library."
He paused and said word by word, "But, knowing that this organization robs, kills, and even cannibalizes people, if we sit back and watch, even if we go back through customs, I believe everyone will have regrets in their hearts."
Zhuo Feng was the first to agree: "That's right! We can't help a big one, but it's not difficult to clean up this organization."
Xu Yishen also said: "To be honest, when I saw the picture of them eating human flesh, I really... sigh, there are also children's arms in it, so small children are killed, it's a bunch of lunatics."
Liu Zhaoqing patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, just watch a horror movie."
Xu Yi smiled bitterly: "It's really a horror movie."
Yue Xingwen glanced at his teammates: "Look for an opportunity to clean up these guys, do you agree?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Thinking of being caught in prison at that time and almost becoming food for those people, a chill goes down everyone's back!
The environment in this world is already very difficult, and these things that do not deserve to be called "people" should not waste resources.
******
[Environmental Pollution-14-End]
In the next few days, everyone recharged their energy at the base while conducting a detailed investigation of this organization.
The small map was monitoring the radar all the way to find teammates, and drew a detailed navigation route along the way. With this navigation map, everyone quickly found the nest of the organization. Xu Yishen turned into a cell, and it was very easy to infiltrate their nest.
After Xu Yishen's cell skills are upgraded, he can also turn his teammates into cells.
He became a cell together with Liu Zhaoqing, Yue Xingwen, and Jiang Pingce. As an investigation team, he infiltrated the organization's base camp, and had a clear understanding of the entire organization's personnel structure and camp layout.
There are 33 members of this group, and the leader is a middle-aged man with a beard.
When his family was so poor that he was about to starve to death, he cruelly ate his wife, fled everywhere, came to this city, and gathered a group of "like-minded" lunatics. They hid in the dark, ran around to commit crimes, and with narcotic bombs in their hands, almost none of the people they captured escaped, and the official could not grasp their specific whereabouts.
Yesterday, Liu Zhaoqing and his party were arrested out of greed. It was the first time they had kicked the iron plate.
When the four of Yue Xingwen were investigating, they heard that these people were still discussing the events of that day: "Are the few caught that day really aliens? Why do they fly?" "It's definitely not aliens, they should have some special abilities Bar!"
Yue Xingwen: "… "
We are a group of devils, and when you meet us, your days will come to an end.
After the investigation was over, the four returned to the base to sort out the information.
They can't do it directly with the ability to kill people. Although these people were mad, they were still human after all, and Yue Xingwen didn't want to make the hands of the classmates bloody.
There is still order in this world. It is not a chaotic city that is completely unmanaged. The government controls water resources and distributes drinking water to people. Naturally, there are official police to maintain the order of human society.
Ke Shaobin asked Xiaotu to print the photos of the members of the organization, Jiang Pingce drew the road map and topographic map of the organization's base camp, Liu Zhaoqing sorted out the storage location and quantity of their anesthetic bombs, and Yue Xingwen also wrote clearly about the living habits of these people.
The detailed information was secretly sent by Xu Yishen to the police force's mailbox.
It will then be handed over to the authorities. Those thugs don't have particularly powerful weapons. As long as the official has mastered their whereabouts and their hometown, they will definitely be defeated.
The affairs of this world should be handled by the humans here.
Their 183 research group has done their due responsibilities.
After returning to the base, a stone in the heart fell to the ground, and everyone was relieved. Ke Shaobin joked: "Xingwen, I didn't expect you to send the information to the police station, I thought you were going to take us to a big fight!"
Yue Xingwen smiled and said, "Take you to kill? I don't want to set a precedent."
They have used their abilities to solve spiders, wolves, and mutant creatures of the Academy of Biological Sciences, but they have never killed anyone.
Even if those are bad people, if their 12 students shot and killed them without any hesitation, although they might have felt that they had the spirit to "see injustice on the road" and "eliminate evil by righteousness", Yue Xingwen didn't know, and waited for all the dust to fall. After returning to reality, will they remember these experiences and have nightmares
Yue Xingwen hopes that everyone can come to the library cleanly and walk out of the library with a clear conscience.
After all, they still have to return to their normal lives. Exams, essay writing, graduation, job hunting…
Can't be lost here, leaving behind the stain of killing people.
Jiang Pingce looked at Yue Xingwen and said seriously: "Your decision is right. We are just passing by. Let the people of this world solve the problems of this world themselves."
Ke Shaobin said with a smile, "I'm just joking! I really don't dare to kill someone... If there is really no way to kill someone in the future, I'll let Xiaotu go!"
Thumbnail: "Master??"
Liu Zhaoqing smiled and patted Xiaotu's head: "You are the one to blame for your master."
Thumbnail: "Thutu has crashed, don't call Thumbnail."
Ke Shaobin: "...Are you going to become a sperm?"
Everyone returned to the base and sorted out the supplies. Yue Xingwen used the rainstorm and back skills to copy a batch of oranges. Thousands of oranges were enough for them to eat for a long time.
The vegetables he bought before were made into vegetable soup by Xin Yan as a daily snack.
Ke Shaobin couldn't help but complain: "Why do you cook cabbage, potatoes, eggplant, radishes and tomatoes together? Xin Yan, you are a cook, can't you cook them separately?"
Xin Yan said lightly, "You didn't say you wanted to separate."
Ke Shaobin: "..."
Everyone was eating the strange-smelling "potassium vegetable soup" with complicated expressions on their faces. In retrospect, the five-grain porridge eaten by the Academy of Biological Sciences is simply a delicacy in the world! This vegetable soup smells like "shabu-shabu water" and it's horrible...
Fortunately, from that day on, Ke Shaobin snatched the position of "Chef" from Xin Yan, and the tomato soup he made was quite delicious.
time flies.
The days that followed were very boring. Although they hid in the basement with limited conditions, compared with people in this world, the environment they lived in was like a paradise.
On the 14th day of the exam, everyone stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the city for the last time.
The environment was still the same as when they first arrived. The wind and sand covered the sky and the sun, and the entire city was shrouded in a layer of haze. People here were struggling to survive every day, and an occasional diarrhea could kill people.
12 of them have no ability to change anything.
But everyone unexpectedly discovered that in the evening when the weather was not too hot, a car drove slowly to the suburbs and stopped at the foot of the mountain. There were also some people in white clothes collecting soil samples here.
Lin Manluo's eyes lit up: "It should be the researchers in this world, they didn't give up!"
Yue Xingwen said: "It seems that they have been trying to solve the problem of soil pollution. As long as they persist, after several years or even decades of hard work, the environment may be improved?"
Just maybe.
But if you do nothing, not even "maybe".
The cause of the former race, the latter bear the consequences. Their ancestors destroyed their homeland, but they can work hard to rebuild a beautiful homeland for their descendants.
