Heavy Armoured Truck In Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 24: Disguised as an ant

Views:

Changing the active radiation frequency of the King Kong, even if it is only on the surface, is still quite difficult.

But Shen Cong felt that this could be done. The biggest inspiration was of course that the King Kong swallowed up the activity of the motorcycle and synchronized it. When Shen Cong usually eats mutated meat, he also directly ingests the activity, thus naturally completing the frequency synchronization.

Another huge inspiration is that when I first saw the motorcycle skeleton, the active metal surface was covered by a layer of rust, and the radiation was completely blocked. It was not until Shen Cong wiped away the rust that the activity was felt. This is of course because Shen Cong's own ability to perceive the outside world is relatively weak, but it also shows that the radiation frequency can be masked and changed.

The 66 powder outside had begun to evaporate under the sunlight, and the irritating dust prevented some mutant ants from approaching.

However, there are still a large number of mutated ants that continue to secrete formic acid in the parts of the car body that have not been sprinkled with 66 powder.

Willpower communicates with the King Kong, and it can be clearly felt that the activity level of the car body is decreasing little by little. In just a short while, it has dropped to 43.1%.

He was holding a mutant ant alive in his hand, and he was slowly feeling the frequency emitted by the mutant ant.

"Change the activity frequency... It should be like breathing... I can control the activity, I should be able to change the frequency!" Shen Cong's willpower kept trying to master the activity at a deeper level.

This was a risky attempt without sufficient theoretical preparation. Shen Cong's research had not reached this stage yet, and the feasibility was not high. However, under the threat of the ant colony, he had to try.

If you succeed, you can escape disaster.

If you fail, the consequences are unpredictable.

What does it mean to be alive

For a person, it means heartbeat, breathing, and metabolism. These signs of life can be controlled artificially. When excited, the heartbeat speeds up and breathing becomes rapid. When calm, the heartbeat slows down and breathing is long. Appetite can be controlled and excretion can be delayed.

For King Kong, which has been endowed with the nature of "living", metabolism means absorbing activity and emitting radiation.

Shen Cong now wants to reduce the radiation emitted by the activity to the frequency of mutated ants.

To his surprise, after trying once, he found that the frequency could be changed. He successfully interfered with the frequency of King Kong's active radiation, and there was a slight change. Of course, this is very difficult. With just a slight interference, the radiation frequency will bounce back, not yielding to Shen Cong's willpower.

It's like holding your breath. If you hold it too hard, it will rebound.

"As long as it works."

Shen Cong raised his hand to wipe away the dense sweat on his face and forehead, continued to concentrate, used his willpower to forcibly interfere with the active frequency, and worked hard to guide the frequency of the mutated ants.

Activity is like the nerves that carry the connection between Shen Cong and King Kong. The brain can control the nerves, and willpower can control the activity.

As time passes by, the activity of the King Kong is depleted every minute.

42.5%…

41.7%…

39.8%…

36.2%…

34.4%…

32.1%…

When the activity dropped by 30%, Shen Cong, who tried more than twenty times, finally reduced the radiation frequency of the King Kong to the same frequency as the mutated ants through interference.

At this moment, the mutated ants that were secreting formic acid and eating the external armor of the King Kong were collectively shocked.

They all stopped biting in a daze.

Sensing such a result, Shen Cong felt happy.

The effect is perfect!

It's just that extreme joy can lead to sadness. Once the mentality is confused, the interference will be rebounded, and the frequency of the King Kong will instantly return to the normal frequency. In an instant, the confused mutant ant went from being at a loss to eating.

Shen Cong quickly stabilized his mood and started to interfere again.

Because he knew the effect, his heart became more stable and his performance was very stable. After several attempts, he once again lowered the radiation frequency of the King Kong.

The mutated ants crawling all over the car were all shocked and fell into confusion again.

Their IQ is not enough to distinguish why the active radiation emitted by this iron lump is consistent with their own. When the smell was interfered with by 66 powder, active radiation became the main method of communication, and King Kong successfully blended into the mutant ant team.

The chaotic state of confusion lasted less than ten seconds.

Having lost their target to eat, this group of mutated ants quickly left the King Kong. To them, although the King Kong was of the same species, the surrounding environment was filled with unpleasant odors, prompting them to flee here. Instead, it swarmed towards the surrounding car wrecks and continued to eat the metal.

Sensing the departure of the mutated ants.

In the King Kong car, Shen Cong let out a long sigh of relief.

His heart felt even more relaxed. A crisis was solved smoothly with his genius' quick wit. King Kong's activity level stayed at 28.4%. Although it lost nearly half of its activity, at least the external armor was intact, and it could still be made up for after spending time.

After becoming familiar with the method of interfering with active frequencies, Shen Cong could relax and only need to maintain a little distraction to ensure the effect of interference.

He opened the side skylight again and looked at the situation outside.

It was not advisable to stay here for a long time. When the mutated ants were gone, he was ready to drive away immediately. However, there are a lot of car wrecks here, and the mutated ants won't be able to eat them all in a while, so they still have to wait.

With the danger gone, Shen Cong thought of the motorcycle at the back of the car.

The King Kong was protected by his guidance activity, but the motorcycle had no protection at all. He seemed to have heard the cooing sound of a plastic rabbit before.

He frowned.

Walking to the compartment at the rear of the car, Shen Cong saw at a glance that the plastic rabbit, which had regained some of its strength, was bleeding from the mouth and nose, lying motionless in the cage.

I grabbed the cage and felt the plastic rabbit. It had no breathing, no heartbeat, and its activity was slowly losing.

died.

Shen Cong opened the sunroof again and looked at the motorcycle hanging at the rear. Because motorcycles take up more space, Shen Cong always puts them outside to let them absorb free activity on their own.

However, the motorcycle has disappeared, eaten away by mutated ants.

Shen Cong's face turned livid in an instant, and all the joy of the rest of his life disappeared.

He is not sad because of the death of a little life. Plastic rabbits are raised just to study and devour activity. As long as it is no longer useful, Shen Cong will burn it and eat it at any time; nor is he because the source of activity in his captivity is gone. And when you feel angry, you can still grab it when it's gone, it's just something external to you.

But because - the motorcycle was eaten, and the plastic rabbit also died.

This means that if King Kong "dies" one day, then Shen Cong will not be able to survive, and his and King Kong's lives are tied together.

Life-threatening options have been added again!

He has always regarded the King Kong as a mobile fortress, a tool to protect himself. When necessary, this tool can be sacrificed at any time in exchange for his own life. But now, King Kong is no longer a tool, but a part of life integrated with him.

Shen Cong didn't like this feeling.

The King Kong was almost killed by a monster suspected to be a prehistoric giant crocodile. In other words, Shen Cong was almost killed as well.

Take a deep breath.

Take a deep breath.

After Shen Cong was briefly shocked and angry, he quickly adjusted his mentality. It was a fait accompli and there was no point in complaining. Instead of being bitter about it, it’s better to think more about the good aspects.

"If it weren't for the King Kong, I would have died long ago... Life is one, life is one. As long as I continue to help the King Kong evolve, the danger is nothing!"

Shen Cong's eyes regained their determination: "Evolve!"
