North Outer Ring Road.
Driving northeast from the foot of Fenghuang Mountain, you will soon encounter the second mountain, Baizhang Mountain. The former Chaohu City was a city surrounded by mountains.
At the foot of Chizhang Mountain, Shen Cong raised the DJI 8 and overlooked the earth from an altitude of 200m.
The grape forest camp in Phoenix Mountain is also in sight.
Shen Cong mainly checked the Hechaowu Expressway. From the intersection of Jinshan Road and the North Outer Ring Road, walk directly north for a section of Ye Tiantian, which can directly branch off to the Hechaowu Expressway.
There are wilderness and ruins nearby, no survivors, no evolved beasts.
"It's a pity that the chassis of the fire truck is too low to walk in the wild fields. We still have to go back to Bantang Town and take the highway." Shen Cong carefully checked the footage taken by the drone and saw many large fields in the wild fields to the north of the intersection. pieces of gravel.
These gravels are nothing more than a waste of time and diesel for the King Kong, which has a bulldozer, a high chassis, and large tires. But fire trucks can only drive on relatively smooth roads.
The fire truck was carrying a lot of scrap metal products and 2,500 liters of diesel fuel exchanged from the camp. Shen Cong was reluctant to throw away these things.
On the way to Hefei, I didn’t know what unexpected situations I would encounter on the way, and I felt uneasy if I didn’t bring more supplies.
Shen Cong also saw the current appearance of the King Kong from the drone's aerial footage.
The dog-crocodile war flag on the head looks like a roaring skeleton crocodile, which is very vivid and lifelike - and quite showy.
After determining the safe driving distance, the King Kong started again.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, we returned to Bantang Town, where we first stayed, and went straight onto the highway without any delay. There is not much gravel on the highway. It may have been cleared when the military region first came. There is only a little yellow sand and debris on the highway road surface now.
The King Kong can be simply ignored and increased to a relatively high speed of 40 kilometers per hour. This is still concerned about the actions of the fire trucks. The speed is too high and the road surface is uneven, and the fire trucks cannot withstand it.
However, this speed was maintained for less than ten minutes, and the driving distance was just over seven kilometers. We had just arrived at Xinzhuang, not far from Xiage Town.
Shen Cong had to step on the brakes.
The road ahead looked like it had been plowed over, with bumps and bumps. Judging from the camera footage, this place should have been bombed. Only the firepower of the military district could blow up the ground like this. After some investigation and finding that there was no danger, Shen Cong put on his semi-activated armor and got out of the car.
He walked to the plowed ground and examined it carefully for a moment.
I have never studied geology, so I don’t know when it was exploded, but judging from the surface conditions, it was at least bombed before the second heavy rain. Many traces of the bomb were washed away by the rain, leaving only craters.
"The troops of the Provincial Military Region have fought here, does it mean that there are already high-risk mutated animals that need bombs to deal with? From the longitude point of view, this place is at the same longitude as the nesting area, and the activity content is also poor. bring… "
The level of vigilance in my mind increased.
Shen Cong used a telescope to observe and found that the ground that had been blasted by the bomb was in the form of a fan-shaped surface. The fastest way to pass through it was to fill this section with a bulldozer and then go directly through it. Because a fire brigade carriage was hung behind the vehicle, it was very inconvenient for the King Kong to reverse, so the quality of the filling work was not high.
After barely driving up, the King Kong was fine, but the fire truck was completely stuck on the chassis.
"No matter what, just drag it away!"
Shen Cong became ruthless and no longer cared about whether the chassis of the fire truck would be worn out. Anyway, the fire truck was a temporary transportation substitute, and if it broke, it would be broken.
Boom boom boom!
King Kong stepped on the accelerator to the maximum, pulled hard, and dragged the fire truck away from the bombed road and back to the normal highway.
But before Shen Cong could adjust the gear, he was ready to accelerate.
I saw the remains of several cars on the roadside ahead, stuck in the mud. These car wrecks look very much like large military trucks, with some parts covered in green paint. There were even bones in the wreckage of a truck, which were human skeletons.
This discovery sent a chill down Shen Cong's back.
The situation was very much like a military truck pulling a car of people to death on the roadside. As for the use of military trucks, I am afraid that people from the military region will only come before the first heavy rain and flood. That time, the military region brought many vehicles and took away many evolvers and their families in the nest area.
The survivors who could not follow were very envious.
Unexpectedly, Shen Cong found truck wreckage and human skeletons here. Thinking of the road that had been bombed before, it was obvious that the troops of the Provincial Military Region encountered an attack here and several vehicles of people were killed. It is said that a total of ten large trucks came at that time, and three of them were here, killing one third of them.
"Danger, the road ahead is dangerous."
Shen Cong calmed down, checked for danger, and got out of the car again. He wanted to carefully check the reasons for the possible danger here.
The skeletons of the dead were not scary, at least Shen Cong would not be afraid. He tore apart the rusty carriage of the big truck. There were rows of skeletons inside, and there were at least forty people in one truck. The skeletons showed obvious signs of being gnawed, with many of them missing arms and legs, and there were gnawed marks on the bones.
Using the oscillation locator, I simply scanned the surface of the imprint and constructed the three-dimensional model. I quickly saw on the screen what kind of thing had bitten it.
"It's probably not teeth. This kind of scratch looks a bit like an insect. It's very similar to the mouthparts of a digger, but slightly different... It's probably a mutated beetle. The marks are so big and deep. The beetle's body shape shouldn't be the same." Small."
Shen Cong went to two other large trucks and checked the human skeletons in the carriages. Basically, they all had the same gnawing marks, suspected to be beetle bite marks.
Occasionally there are traces left by the molars of cats and dogs.
Based on this, Shen Cong deduced that the troops of the Provincial Military Region should have encountered a swarm of mutated beetles, lost three large trucks, and finally used bomb cover to escape the battlefield. Later, the humans in the truck were devoured by mutated beetles, leaving some scraps of meat that had not been cleaned up, attracting some dogs and cats.
The wreckage of the three large trucks was very badly rusted, and there were no intact parts, not even parts that could be recycled as scrap metal.
After struggling for a while and unable to pick up anything good, Shen Cong prepared to return to the King Kong.
Don't stay any longer and leave this somewhat crowded place as soon as possible. What surprised Shen Cong was that just as he was about to get in the car, he heard a rustling sound coming from behind.
Shen Cong didn't look back, jumped directly into the King Kong and closed the outer armor.
Then he looked at the monitor screen.
I saw a ruin not far away from the side of the King Kong. The rubble covered on it had been lifted off, and large black beetles poured out one after another.
Rush straight towards the King Kong. (To be continued.)
