Shen Cong prepared a glass of water for the plastic rabbit, a piece of good tumor pork, and a pot of pig blood.
Of course, this was not compensation given by Shen Cong after his conscience discovered that he had swallowed up the vitality of the plastic rabbit and the motorcycle. In an apocalyptic environment, Shen Cong would not be unkind to anything except himself. The reason why he feeds the plastic rabbit so much food and drink is simply for the sake of activity.
The King Kong is still too slow to absorb free activity from the outside world, and Shen Cong can't eat much meat, so he might as well keep plastic rabbits and motorcycles in captivity as a source of activity.
He hung the motorcycle directly on the tail of the King Kong and let it absorb the activity on its own.
Then it took ten minutes to experience the benefits of swallowing. The original activity of the King Kong has barely been restored to 42% of the body area. Many electronic equipment and spare parts have not yet been alloyed, which is far from the peak of 85%. But once swallowed, the activity directly increased to 48.5%.
A full 6.5% increase in activity was achieved, which was almost his total activity intake for four to five days.
The King Kong has been rapidly improved, and the benefits of the exchange to Shen Cong are also huge. The activity in Shen Cong's body has also increased, and he feels that his strength has increased from one and a half oxen to two oxen.
Of course, the low adjective for the strength of two cows is Shen Cong's simple summary. It does not really use the strength of one cow as the standard unit. In fact, Shen Cong doesn't know how strong a cow is. However, without professional testing equipment around him, Shen Cong was not sure how much his physical fitness had increased. It was difficult to accurately record strength, agility, speed, endurance, and resistance.
Let's use the power of an ox as a simple unit of measurement.
Swallowing has brought full benefits to King Kong and Shen Cong, but it is not without its drawbacks. Shen Cong almost spontaneously combusted, which was one of the disadvantages. The activity swallowed was not as mild as the normal intake.
And after Shen Cong carefully felt the activity distribution of the King Kong, he noticed something strange.
The frequency of King Kong's own active external radiation is slightly different from the frequency of the active external radiation swallowed by the motorcycle, and they are not in the same band. Shen Cong's willpower is not that easy to deal with this kind of activity of different frequencies.
Fortunately, as time goes by, the different frequency activities from the motorcycle are approaching the frequency of King Kong.
This gradual change is a bit like "digestion" or "synchronization". However, the activity absorbed directly from the outside world, or eaten through meat, does not require this process.
Slight flaws are insignificant, and overall the benefits of devouring them outweigh the disadvantages, and keeping plastic rabbits in captivity has become an established fact.
…
Shen Cong slept very comfortably that night.
The next day, I got up before dawn, climbed on the roof of the King Kong, did a set of morning exercises, and practiced fists, feet, and sticks. When the sky in the east turned white, a red sun jumped out of it, and the earth glowed with light, Shen Cong had already finished his morning exercises.
After simply eating two pieces of fried pork ribs with tumor, Shen Cong went to check out the plastic rabbits and blowflies.
After a night of training, the plastic rabbit has regained some of its vitality, and all the meat in the cage has been eaten away. If this continues, the plastic rabbit will return to normal in a few days. The motorcycle frame hanging at the rear of the car was recovering much slower. After checking it, Shen Cong came to a conclusion.
It will take about another half a month for the motorcycle skeleton to return to its previous activity level - the plastic rabbit does not have the IQ to guide the activity and relies on self-absorption, which is a very slow process.
"It is swallowed once every half a month. One swallow is equivalent to four or five days of normal absorption by the King Kong. The progress is not bad and we can continue to keep it in captivity."
Then Shen Cong checked the blowfly again.
One of the five blowflies in the screen died, indicating that its 15-day lifespan has expired. After more than a week of feeding active meat, the remaining four flies still showed no changes and were unable to maintain activity in their bodies. It seemed that after the meat was eaten by the flies, the activity disappeared.
This made Shen Cong a little disappointed.
However, in a corner of the meat ball, Shen Cong found a circle of white dots - eggs laid by flies, which refreshed Shen Cong's spirits. After all, flies are too small creatures. The life cycle from maggot to fly is only one month. It is difficult to mutate it in such a short period of time.
But the offspring of flies may be a breakthrough for mutation.
"At 6:45 a.m. on July 26, a blowfly was found dead..." After recording the observation information on the computer, Shen Cong terminated the research.
He walked into the cab and opened the sunroof to let in the sunlight.
Then use a laptop to replace the broken display frequency as a map guide to study the route. Judging from the previous path, the current geographical location of the King Kong is probably between Wuwei County and Chaohu City.
Chaohu City was originally a prefecture-level city. After its administrative disbandment, it became a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Hefei. It surrounds Chaohu Lake, one of the five largest freshwater lakes. Chaohu urban area is a transit station for Shen Cong's plan to go to the provincial capital Hefei.
Shen Cong's starting point is Wuwei County, which is a county under the jurisdiction of Wuhu City, but Wuwei County is closer to Tongling City next door.
Before the end came, Shen Cong planned three routes, one going east to Wuhu City, one going south to Tongling City, and the current one going north to Hefei, the provincial capital. After the end, Shen Cong decisively gave up Wuhu and Tongling cities because going to these two cities required crossing the river.
Based on the devastating disaster of the Doomsday Storm, Shen Cong speculated that the Yangtze River Bridge should have been almost destroyed.
The road has been blocked.
"If we can find Provincial Road 208, it will be easy to go to Chaohu City." Shen Cong studied the map and sighed.
Provincial Highway 208 connects Wuwei and Chaohu. If you find Provincial Highway 208, you won’t get lost, and the highway is much easier to travel. The current surface environment has too many potholes. Even though the King Kong is equipped with special tires with a diameter of 1.5 meters, it can still only drive stumblingly and cannot get up fast.
Once you encounter mountain roads, waterways, or hilly areas, the King Kong's driving will become more difficult.
But after thinking about it, Shen Cong sighed again: "Even if we find Provincial Road 208, I'm afraid it will be mostly covered by gravel, making it difficult to walk... Moreover, the King Kong is almost out of fuel."
When encountering a prehistoric crocodile, the two fuel tanks on the side cracked and a large amount of diesel was lost.
There are currently about 200 liters of diesel left in the reserve. Based on the current low-speed operation of the King Kong, it will consume at least 60 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers and can only run about 300 kilometers. If bulldozing is required, the distance will be even shorter.
Fortunately, Wuwei is only more than 40 kilometers away from Chaohu, and Chaohu is only more than 70 kilometers away from Hefei. Even if diesel cannot be replenished in Chaohu, the King Kong can still reach Hefei without serious problems.
At worst, I can charge it with solar panels and run for half an hour every day, and I can make it to Hefei.
He raised his wrist and looked at his mechanical watch. The time was 7:27 am.
Shen Cong put aside his worries and turned on the car radio.
The car radio was repaired along with the power system two days ago. In fact, it didn't matter if it was repaired later. Anyway, Shen Cong had no hope of finding a signal. Satellites cannot be searched, ground base stations are estimated to be completely destroyed, and radiation interferes with signals, all of which restrict the radio signal.
"Zizzi...zizi...zizi..."
Sure enough, Shen Cong searched all the frequency bands and found that they were all noise. Since there was no hope, there was no need to be disappointed. Shen Cong turned the FM to the maximum and prepared to turn off the radio station.
Just at this moment, a few vague Mandarin words suddenly came from the sizzling sound: "... sizzling... Eastern War... sizzling... Nanjing... Invitation received... sizzling..."
