Chapter 515 Snow Country

Compared with ordinary humans, advanced abilities can be regarded as another race to a large extent, and time and space are no longer insurmountable obstacles.

North of the federal border in the old era, it was a vast country with sparsely populated land. Before the outbreak of the war, this country with a vast territory than the federal government had a population of no more than 40 million. Most of its territory was deserted mountain terrain, tundra and forest, and many places were covered with ice and snow all year round. The concentrated areas were mainly in the areas bordering the federal government in the south, as well as the warm western coast.

In a few days, Su had crossed the old border and entered the vast but even more desolate north. In the new era where the radiating clouds enveloped the world, the climate here was even colder. At least half of the year was in the cold winter, and the rest was cold spring and autumn, with summer only one or two short. There were forests everywhere, but unlike the desolate and deepness of the old era, these primeval forests had more strange and hideous towering ancient trees growing from time to time.

War has changed the whole world. Nearly a hundred years have passed, and even ancient trees have to adapt to a new era. All species that are not adapted to the environment have perished, and new species are growing and thriving on their bodies. If you look at it from a holistic perspective, the world is still full of vitality.

Su Wuxia sighed about these things. He actually didn't know much about the changes of the times. Most of his understanding of the old era came from some broken magazines and books left to this day. The tapes and discs that stored massive information in the old era showed fragility, and few could survive under strong radiation. After joining the Dark Dragon Knight, with the increase of military rank and authority, Su was exposed to more and more knowledge of the old era. But looking back at the Dark Dragon Knight, Su spent every minute and every second on making money and debt repayment and becoming stronger. In the later stage, he also needed to consider the needs of the three entourages. He hardly spent time on the historical knowledge of the old era, and any actions that had nothing to do with improving his strength were so luxurious.

The entanglement with the apostles has always been going on. Su's journey of transition is more than 500 kilometers every day, and time is no longer a decisive factor. Such a path of transition is not long for Su and Medilly, but it is limited by Sylvanas's physique. However, the almost constant transition and escape have also rapidly improved the young man's ability. In a week, he has developed all third-level abilities in the field of spells, and the special abilities of the third-level are also emerging from this: the primary anti-gravity force field. The primary anti-gravity force field can

To offset about 20% of gravity, it can be used every six hours for three minutes. This ability is amazing. If there are still high-level versions in the future, it is even more confusing. However, now, Sylvanas still has no help in the current battle. But it cannot be said that it is useless. The boy's body is very light, but Su and Medilly are actually very heavy. At the critical moment of searching for the Apostle consciousness, the anti-gravity force field can increase the speed of the three people accordingly, which is possible to save lives.

Although the apostle consciousness existing in the phantom world covers a vast range of hundreds of square kilometers, it obviously did not realize that Su, who has the ability to detect faults, could sense its existence. It searched piece by piece, but even with its terrifying consciousness, the range of the north was obviously too large, so large that it could not cover it all. In addition, the apostle's consciousness search was not completely weak. During the seven-day tracking and counter-tracking, Su had discovered that speed was the biggest weakness of the apostle's consciousness. Even when moving at full speed, the apostle consciousness swept through like a dark cloud could only reach a speed of about 200 kilometers per hour. This was much slower than the speed when Su and Medierli burst out with all their strength, and it also allowed Su to escape from the apostle's consciousness at critical moments.

The apostle is wise. He has discovered several signs of camping left by Su. Through calculations, he seems to have discovered some rules. The direction of consciousness search has become obviously strange and unpredictable. Several times, he is clearly moving in one direction, but suddenly turns around! This time, the change almost caught Su.

However, to the extent of cunning, Su and Medielli were obviously more clever than the apostles. After realizing the problem, Su took the countermeasure that he was following the apostle's consciousness and always kept a distance of about ten kilometers from the edge of the apostle's consciousness. This strategy was effective. The apostle obviously did not expect that the three ants he was looking for were following at his feet.

The game of hide and seek will continue like this.

As time passed, the apostle's anger also accumulated. As his consciousness roared past, Su had already felt the anger like a volcano exploding hidden in it more and more clearly. But this could not scare him, nor could it scare Medierli. The boys and little girls back then were no longer the objects of oppression and threat. The apostles could kill them, but they could not fear them.

And Pandora is like a lost elf wandering aimlessly on the snow field.

This country of ice and snow is also popular. At the foot of the mountain range, there is a small village. It is actually a more appropriate place to call it a fortress. The wall made of concrete is as high as two meters high, and a row of barbed wire mesh is on the top of the wall. This is not a power grid. In the cold area, electricity is a luxury item and cannot be wasted on it. However, there is a conspicuous skeleton logo hanging on the wire mesh. The pool of green water on the mark clearly indicates that chemical toxins are applied to the wire mesh. This is a thing that is more defensive than the power mesh.

The village is not big, and only residents' residences, warehouses, ammunition depots, power stations, water purification wells and other important facilities. The fields and most of the less important buildings are built outside the wall. On both sides of the village wall gate, there is a five-meter-high sentry tower, and two fully armed sentrymen stand on it at all times, aiming the muzzles of the dark anti-aircraft machine guns at the gloomy and virgin forest in the distance.

There are more than 30 families living in this village, with nearly one hundred people. Unlike ordinary villages, there are only seven or eight children among the villagers here, but there are no elderly people at all. The oldest village chief looks less than fifty years old, and his whole body exudes a strong aura. Except for children, almost everyone in the village is a capable person. The strong figure of the village chief even shows at a glance that he has at least the fourth-level fighting domain ability. Several important buildings in the village are engraved with cross badges, and below are crossed automatic rifles and long swords. The badges are based on light gold, which are the marks of the Holy Hui Crusaders, but they are slightly different from the Holy Hui Crusaders who fight against the dragon knights.

Life in the small village is peaceful and rich. The sparse population in the north brings at least one advantage, that is, the number of nuclear bombs landed in this area during the war is much smaller. Most of the radiation here is caused by radiation dust floating after the formation of radiation clouds covering the world. Outside the village is a gentle slope, and a small river passes around the village. The river has frozen, but in summer, it can provide sufficient water for the farmland outside the village. There is also a large semi-open livestock shed, which houses hundreds of large livestock. In terms of quantity, they can definitely provide food far beyond the times to the residents of the village.

The village chief, or more accurately, should be Captain El, who has been stationed here for more than ten years and has managed the village in an orderly manner with the limited supply of materials at the headquarters. It is far away from the headquarters of the Holy Crusade, and the straight-line distance is more than 1,000 kilometers. Both communication and supply are very difficult. The most important reason why the Holy Crusade established such a fortress here is that among the mountains not far away, it was one of the largest uranium mines in the world before the war. Decades have passed, and the mining area of ​​the past has long become a forest, but in the new era when nuclear energy is increasingly becoming the main energy source, there is no need to say much about the significance of a large uranium mine. The Holy Crusade was unable to develop this uranium mine, but it did not prevent them from deploying some troops here to guard it first.

The north is very quiet, and the cold climate makes this area unsuitable for most living organisms, so the village exists quietly and has been around for more than ten years.

The captain El, who was stationed here, was actually semi-exile. Not only him, but all the villagers in this village were exiled prisoners of the Holy Crusader. El, was not dissatisfied with this quiet life. Although it was a bit boring, it was at least longer than fighting on the front line. The long and peaceful life almost made him forget his fighting skills and his keen instincts he had.

But El felt a little restless these days, as if something was about to happen, and it was like something lurking nearby, peeping at his every move. He had strengthened his patrol and personally inspected all the important facilities in the village, but found nothing. El wanted to enter a state of emergency, but knew that this was not realistic, because he had no evidence that the danger was approaching, and all he had was intuition.

In winter, the sky will gradually become brighter by 10 o'clock in the morning. El left the door at half past nine o'clock, patrolled the village with an automatic rifle and flashlight, and then walked into the livestock feeding ground. The feeding ground was very warm, and the heating was constantly gushing out from the vents, and the soft light was necessary for the growth of these large livestock. Clean water flowed through the sink, and more than a dozen livestock were drinking water leisurely.

With a satisfied expression, El looked over one by one, and according to the habits of more than ten years, he silently counted the number of livestock in his heart.

Everything was normal, El thought and walked out of the breeding shed. When he held his hand up the door, his whole body suddenly shook, remembering what was wrong. One missing livestock in the breeding shed! He had just patrolled here yesterday!

"Maybe it was stolen by some greedy guy, such as the naughty boy from Richard's house..." El kept comforting himself in his heart, but his body felt colder and colder. He slowly lowered his body, gently pulled the bolt, made a fighting posture, and moved carefully between the corrals, his sharp eyes refused to let go of any clues.

The breeding shed was so quiet that El could hear his breathing. With a bang, a round bead of sweat rolled down from his forehead and smashed to pieces on the ground. This insignificant sound made him almost jump up, without the calmness of the veteran who had been struggling on the battlefield for nearly ten years!

The strong and powerful legs in the past were as heavy as lead. El gritted his teeth, forcibly controlling the trembling of his legs, and slowly moved his body. His hands couldn't help but tremble, and his index finger kept tapping the trigger, and there were almost fires several times. Finally, he came to a corral.

The corral was empty, with only a messy straw all over the ground. But El clearly remembered that yesterday morning there was a mutated meat bull here. It had been raised for two years and weighed more than 600 kilograms. But now, there is nothing in the corral.

El first carefully looked at every corner of the corral, but found nothing. Then he stretched out his hand, stroked the railing of the corral, and then looked at his fingers under the light, but still didn't find anything. If a big beef cattle had evaporated out of thin air.

El sniffed hard, and it was indeed a strong smell, and he could tell a trace of bloody smell that was almost impossible to smell!

He took a deep breath, held the automatic rifle tightly in his right hand, walked into the beast fence, used his left hand to cut the straw on the ground, and carefully checked all suspicious traces. After careful investigation, he found some traces. There were several inconspicuous small holes on the ground, and some fine scratches could be found on the fence.

This should be left behind by the paws of some kind of animal. Evan judged that, judging from the marks, this thing doesn't seem to be big, at most it is equivalent to the size of a wild cat. Will a wild cat be related to the disappearance of a bull? Evan thought this idea was funny, but he couldn't laugh at all.

In addition, Evan also found that the livestock in the corral were particularly quiet today. They were all tightly attached to the railings or walls, crowded together, trying to stay away from the beast fence.

Evan has rich experience. He first carefully observed the hole left by the claws, then stood up, and slowly outlined a route to the wall of the beast fence through the direction the livestock avoided. But at the end of the route was a wall, without a door, only a high ventilation window, and the size of the window could never pass through a beef cattle that was about to grow.

Evan walked under the wall and finally found a few more claw marks on the wall. He found that the ventilation window had been opened, and now it was just a blank space, and there were still a few drops of blood on the lower edge of the window. The blood was very new, and it should be less than a day. In this way, the time would be right. But Evan always had a question in his heart, that is, how a bull passed through the small window. As long as he could not find the answer to this question, it would be like a huge shadow, always wandering in his heart.
