The superpower team is prepared for landslides and earthquakes. The last six times were all disaster-type worlds, which means that among the causes of the end of the world, disasters are more common, and the zombie world and parasitic world are actually a minority.
But there was nothing in the world before their eyes. They were also in a bathhouse, but it was deserted and dusty.
Asan used instruments to collect dust on the floor and mold on the walls. The test showed that the two were consistent with the composition of the real world, and there was no possibility of dust contamination or mold change.
The three exchange students also collected and analyzed the data and came to the same conclusion as Ah San.
Without Tu Zishi, the sense of crisis was a little weaker. Ah San said, "The main building and facilities of the steam sauna era have no signs of damage. The ground is very dusty but there are no footprints, which means that no one has been here for a long time."
Qiu Qizheng: "There are two types of apocalypse that we know of. One is the catastrophic type, which is very common. In this type of world, buildings will not be preserved so intact. The other type is the invasion type world, where viruses or other organisms parasitize humans for the purpose of reproduction and infection. In this type of world, even if humans become extinct, there will be parasitic organisms moving around, and there will be footprints."
Ah San's face was solemn: "This is a world we have never experienced before."
The superpower team has matured a lot compared to their past appearance. At least they have learned to fear the unknown. This is a world that is enough to destroy mankind. It is difficult to survive with only a few people's superpowers. Don't think about being a hero who saves the world, and don't stay too long. Get to the teleportation point as soon as possible and go home. The real world is what they need to save.
The members of the special power team made the decision in just a few words: "Go to the teleportation point immediately."
Invisible dangers are actually more frightening than devastating disasters.
"What?" Dr. Lucas asked in surprise, "Aren't you curious about the other world? Why don't you collect more information and at least find out the cause of the apocalypse? Isn't it a common practice to enter the 'void' multiple times to summarize experience?"
Lucas's idea was also shared by the Special Ability Team. The three exchange students were just like the Special Ability Team in the past. Their approach was correct, but it was very dangerous.
"Experience is gained with blood," Asan, the nominal captain, replied in fluent English, "We don't want anyone else to be sacrificed."
After that, he said to everyone, "Go out, and try not to stay in buildings or crowded places. Aunt Yang, find an open space to pick up the car. We are more than 300 kilometers away from the teleportation point, so we need to speed up."
The special power team obeyed the order. Although the three exchange students had some objections, since this was the special power team's home court, they did not dare to say anything and quickly followed.
It’s just… what does Aunt Yang mean by picking up the car
Of course, it is impossible for the United States to send three people who know nothing. The three exchange students can speak Chinese and have some problems with their accents, but it does not affect communication.
They understood what Ah San said, but they didn't understand what the aunt could do.
Before coming, they also applied to the Chinese government to transfer a car from the US Embassy in China, but were rejected by Minister Yu, who said that this thing could sometimes be a burden.
So do we have to walk the distance of more than 300 kilometers
The three of them followed everyone out of the sauna era in confusion, and the streets were empty.
Everyone entered the "hole" at 19:43. This street is a commercial street, and today is International Women's Day. The commercial street should be at its peak, but now there is only the cold winter wind.
Without lights, it was difficult to see in the dark, but fortunately the special power team had prepared night vision goggles and roughly observed the environment. There was still no sign of any damage, and no fighting at all.
"The shelves in that supermarket are full," Yan Yongfeng looked up at the big supermarket not far away, "The Coke in the exhibition area was produced in October 2016. If we estimate that there is no time difference between the two worlds, it should be about two years after the apocalypse."
The exchange student, who was 211cm tall, stood on tiptoe to look at the supermarket on the second floor, but of course found nothing.
"Let's go," said Tan Yan, who had been silent the whole time, "I have a very bad feeling."
If Tan Yan says it is not good, then it is really not good. Everyone in the parasitic world has experienced this firsthand.
Aunt Yang rubbed her arms that were corroded by the cold, opened up the space, and a special vehicle that could carry 15 people appeared on the flat ground. The three exchange students almost popped their eyes out.
The superpower is so terrifying that it can give a middle-aged woman with no fighting ability the power of space!
The group got on the car one after another. Since the racing maniac Shi Tou was not there, the clairvoyant Yan Yongfeng had to be the driver.
These nicknames were given to the special ability team during training, corresponding to the characteristics of each person.
"Ms. Yang," Lucas asked politely, "Excuse me, is your ability a spatial ability?"
Aunt Yang looked at Ah San, and when she saw the captain nod, she said, "Yes."
"Then, how big is your space? In what form does space exist? Does it exist in our original world, or is it independent of the world, tearing open a space crack?" Dr. Lucas couldn't wait to ask a series of questions.
Yang Shumei: “…”
So many questions, and she could hear the first one.
"It's the size of the three-story villa, I can't tell you anything else." This was the only answer Ms. Yang Shumei could give.
She is also a woman with a strong sense of confidentiality.
Lucas winked at 203.
The exchange student, who was 203cm tall, was named Bob Grantham. Although he was tall, he was very fair-skinned and had a face that women, especially middle-aged women, would find attractive. He came over to chat with Aunt Yang, but they didn't say anything special, just chatted about family matters.
He probably wanted to bring up some sensitive issues during the conversation so as to dispel Aunt Yang's vigilance. This is a common method.
Unfortunately, Aunt Yang usually does nothing but cook for the special-powered team and exercise in the gym to avoid being a hindrance during the escape. Aunt Yang is not aware of some of the confidential events at the base.
But this time, Aunt Yang also had a mission, which was to use her excellent language skills to describe the end of the world as extremely terrifying.
It is most appropriate to entrust this task to the Chinese aunties.
Aunt Yang took Minister Yu's (Oh my God, this was probably the most important official she had ever seen, a chief-level figure. Every time she saw him, Aunt Yang couldn't help but want his autograph. She was more excited than seeing a star) instructions to heart, and totally ignored Brother Bob's words. In less than three sentences, she changed the subject to the other world.
"What's your main job? Well, I'm just a housewife. I cook for the guys every day. I have lunch boxes in my space. I made them at noon. The space has a better ability to keep food fresh than the outside. After all, bacteria can't get in. It's still warm now. Do you want to try it? It's delicious.
Come on, one portion for each person, here are the chopsticks... Oh, you don’t know how to use chopsticks, it’s okay, Auntie has prepared disposable spoons.
It's still hot, eat it quickly, otherwise if you encounter danger later you won't be able to eat it.
You don’t know the first apocalypse my aunt experienced. There were zombies everywhere. They killed for a whole day and night. The corpses were piled up more than ten meters high. It was a tragic scene... Tsk tsk.
My aunt hadn't awakened her special powers at that time, and she didn't have a space. The dry food that Liang Xian snatched from the people in the other world was hard and dry. In the winter, she had to drink cold water and ride an electric bike. My old bones are not a problem, but the girls around me, hey, it will affect their fertility in the future.
After that, every time I went to another world, I would bring a lot of food, definitely hot food, and cotton clothes with me, so that I would never suffer that kind of suffering again.
Eat quickly! Eat well so you can start your journey... No, this doesn't sound very auspicious."
Three exchange students: “…”
The chatting ability of Chinese aunties is really amazing.
The three of them were very polite. They would not interrupt others when they were talking, and would wait until the other person finished speaking before expressing their opinions. But the auntie was really talkative, and she did not stop for half an hour. These days, auntie Yang has been exercising, and her lung capacity has greatly improved. In the past, she had to drink water after talking for more than ten minutes, otherwise she would be dizzy due to lack of oxygen. Now, she can talk for a whole day without feeling tired!
Lucas couldn't stand it any longer and said, "Ms. Yang, your space is so big, why don't you consider bringing a fighter plane in? Wouldn't it be more efficient than a vehicle?"
This question was answered by Ah San: "Dr. Lucas, navigation in another world is different from our world. Besides, we don't know what dangers we will encounter in the air. It is safer on land than in the unfamiliar air. After all, humans can't fly."
After Ah San finished answering, Aunt Yang interrupted again. She could talk about the dangers of flying for a whole day.
Three exchange students: “…”
The people in the back seat were chatting animatedly when suddenly there was an emergency brake in front of them. Everyone quickly steadied themselves. Ah San asked, "What happened?"
Yan Yongfeng's palms were covered in cold sweat, he simply couldn't believe what he saw.
Qiu Qizheng looked forward and said, "The pavilion for patrolling out of the city is right in front of us. Why don't you leave?"
"Assistant Instructor Chai, squad leader... We might not be able to get out." Yan Yongfeng touched his chest. His heart was pounding so hard that he didn't dare to look forward.
"What did you see?" Asan put his hand on Yan Yongfeng's shoulder to give him strength.
Yan Yongfeng swallowed his saliva and jumped out of the car. The others followed closely. He looked up at the sky, his face becoming increasingly worse.
"What happened?" Qiu Qizhen knew that Yan Yongfeng was not a timid person. He had such a cowardly expression. He must have seen something terrible.
"I'm not sure," Yan Yongfeng said, "There was fog not far ahead, and the headlights couldn't penetrate. I used my consciousness to look, and I saw a group of people, but they were very blurry and unclear.
Also, look up, can you see the stars? "
Everyone looked up and saw that the sky was covered with dark clouds and there was not a single ray of light.
"The fog in front and the clouds in the sky are not naturally formed. I don't know what they are." Yan Yongfeng trembled slightly, "But my intuition tells me that I can't go in."
"Then how do we get out? Change direction?" asked Asan.
"It's not easy," Tan Yan suddenly said, "I can feel that the city is surrounded. The fog can't be easily entered. This is the first time I've encountered something like this."
Even the experienced Tan Yan had never seen this before, so they hit the jackpot this time.
"What is that?" 211 shone a high-intensity flashlight for a long time but couldn't see what it was, so he just picked up his submachine gun and fired at the fog. After a magazine of bullets was used up, there was not even a trace of fire in the fog. The bullets sank into the sea without even a splash of water.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. It was the first time they felt helpless.
"It's so cold!" Aunt Yang kept rubbing her arms. "I wanted to ask you just now, Xiao Yan, did you turn on the heater? Why is it so cold?"
"I turned it on," Yan Yongfeng said, "I feel warm too."
The members of the special power team checked with each other and all said that they did not feel cold. It might be cold outside, but it was warm in the car.
Dr. Lucas asked 211 and 203: "We feel a little cold, but not as cold as Ms. Yang."
Tan Yan walked over to Aunt Yang, stared at her arm for a while, and rolled up her sleeves. Aunt Yang wore loose clothes to make it easier to move, and her sleeves were rolled up to her shoulders.
With the help of the flashlight, everyone saw her arm clearly and gasped.
Both of Aunt Yang's arms were covered with blue and purple finger marks. Judging from the size, there were both adults' and children's finger marks, as if they had been pinched by countless people.
"Ah! What happened?" Aunt Yang looked confused, "I didn't go to crowded places during the day..."
Without saying a word, Tan Yan put his hand on Aunt Yang's arm and rubbed it hard. After rubbing back and forth several times, the handprints gradually disappeared.
The same method was repeated on both arms. After all the handprints disappeared, Aunt Yang said, "No, I'm not cold anymore!"
She was no longer cold, but everyone felt chilled.
"There is something, but we can't see it." Qiu Qizheng raised his gun and said, "Yan Yongfeng can see a little bit, but he didn't notice it when Auntie was arrested. Maybe things can only be seen when they gather together to form fog or dark clouds, or maybe they have the ability to become invisible."
"Why does it sound so much like a ghost..." asked Aunt Yang, who has a rich collection of supernatural stories.
"Everything is possible," Qiu Qizheng said, "What should we do now? We can't even leave quickly. Those things want to trap us here. Why?"
"Why was Aunt Yang arrested but not us?" Asan rolled up his sleeves, and there were no marks on his arms.
"I am a woman, so I have a strong yin energy?" The representative of feudal superstition guessed, "You are virgins, so you have a strong yang energy, so ghosts dare not approach you?"
The superpower team: "..."
"Those three exchange students are foreigners who are more open-minded and definitely not virgins, so they also felt cold." Aunt Yang said reasonably.
Three exchange students: “…”
"Look at your limbs." said Tan Yan.
The three of them didn't want to agree with the aunt's statement, but when they opened their clothes, they saw a lot of handprints, much less than Aunt Yang's purple state, but also very scary. Lucas was the weakest, even on his chest.
"Oh my God, is it really like what Ms. Yang said, that this is a world of ghosts? And ghosts are also gender discriminatory?" Dr. Lucas analyzed.
While removing the handprints for the three people, Tan Yan said expressionlessly: "Stop it, there are no ghosts in this world."
The superpower team: "..."
I almost forgot that although Tan Yan lived in a similar era to Aunt Yang, he was a staunch materialist and did not believe in any unnatural phenomena.
"Why is that?"
"We are all people with special abilities and our resistance is stronger than that of the three of you. Although Aunt Yang is a person with special abilities, she is an ordinary person. She has not received any special training and has weak willpower, so she is the most vulnerable to attack among everyone." Tan Yan gave a reasonable answer.
The author has something to say: Tan Yan said: There are no ghosts in the world. Even if a ghost floats in front of me, I will not acknowledge it!
Author: No problem, let me give you a scientific (xia) reasonable (ji) explanation (bo)).
La la la, I have completed the double update today. Sorry for being a few minutes late because I wanted to finish writing the last paragraph.
See you tomorrow at 14:00~
Love everyone (づ￣3￣)づ╭?～
