Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 161: Borderline

In the unobstructed wilderness, the night wind seems to be more fierce than during the day. The bonfire, which was piled up with some broken branches and dead leaves, flickered and danced in the wind, and the smoke column slowly dissipated in the air before it even rose into the sky.

Besides this small fire, there is no other light source between the sky and the earth - even the stars that were dim in the past were completely obscured by thick clouds tonight.

In the darkness, six people and one rabbit sat around the fire, and the flickering light of the fire lit up the heavy expressions on everyone's faces. For a long while, no one spoke.

Six hours have passed since Bai Xiaoke and the other three disappeared.

Although no one said it explicitly, everyone knew that there was little hope of saving the person alive——

Finally the rabbit looked around and broke the silence. It asked a question that it had actually confirmed several times: "... Green Rougua, | excellent | excellent | small | said | updated | newest | fastest | fastest | | What were you really doing in the sky at that time? Don’t you see anything strange?”

"Really, boss," Lu Rougua said with a sad face, and his tone was depressed and numb: "I don't dare to let go of any trouble! But except for those mountains that seem to have no edges, , there is really nothing... let alone traces of human activity, not even a bug was seen."

——This afternoon, when the [Dog Frisbee] light came on and they stopped after seeing that they had left the dangerous area, Lin Sanjiu suddenly remembered that they could let Green Meatball wear his [Cloud Mimicry Raincoat] , rose into the sky to check the situation.

Although the [Cloud Mimicry Raincoat] can only make people rise straight from where they are standing and cannot move in the air, but if you can climb high and look far away, you may be able to discover something... Just this idea, soon It turned into disappointment.

Although they did not dare to step into that area rashly, everyone also tried their best: special items that could be released to detect the situation were released; after they all came back with nothing, they spent more time. After a lot of effort, I caught two bugs, tied them on a line, and threw them into that area.

In order to find out what happened, in addition to Lvrougua who was watching from the sky, Lin Sanjiu also called out the diary card. Ignoring the complaints it kept showing, such as "Oh, it's so disgusting," I tied the card and the bug together and released them together.

When the rope was pulled back, the other end was indeed empty without insects, leaving only a diary card shaking back and forth. Lin Sanjiu suppressed the excitement in her heart, took it off and took a look, and found that the diary card had Only one sentence was recorded: "At 5:04pm, the disgusting bugs suddenly disappeared."

When I called Lu Rougua down again and asked, his answer was not much better - "I only saw two small black figures tumbling for a moment and then disappeared... How did they disappear? I didn't see clearly at all. , it seems like it happened in the blink of an eye."

At this time, everyone was really in a helpless situation.

After a while, someone suddenly let out a long sigh.

"This matter is all my fault." The speaker was Lin Sanjiu. She lowered her head and stared at the small patch of ground in front of her: "...if I hadn't brought you here recklessly, they would have Not everyone...is missing."

One of the twins suddenly sniffed loudly.

"I can't blame you for this, Sister Lin!" Hui Chuyan immediately became a little anxious: "We all agreed to come here together. Before approaching this area, you told us to be on guard... It’s just that this thing is so unreasonable that no one could have predicted it!”

Lin Sanjiu patted her hand gently, as a sign of gratitude for her willingness to defend herself, but he didn't say anything, seemingly not agreeing with her statement.

There is another thing that has been buried in her heart and has not been spoken out.

...The place where the light turned on was no longer where they originally stopped, at least two to three hundred meters away. Lin Sanjiu thought about it, but she couldn't figure out the reason for this situation - and what was even more confusing was that the more she thought about it, the more unsure she was of remembering it wrong.

After all, this area has been deserted for a long time. There are weeds and ruins everywhere, all looking the same. There is nothing conspicuous that can be used as a mark. I was in a hurry at that time, so if I remembered the wrong place, it was very possible.

Others don't seem to notice this yet, which may be evidence.

"...Let's analyze it." Lin Sanjiu rubbed his face and said as if sighing. ——Now, no matter how much I regret, I still can’t bring the person back, so why not try harder.

"The bugs were released together with the diary card. The bugs disappeared, but the card is still there... This probably means that only living things will disappear?" Her eyes scanned everyone, with a hint of expectation.

"That's right." Rabbit responded immediately, "And only things on the ground will disappear..."

"But the strange thing is that the missing people and the insects are not in the same place, they are quite far away from each other..." Xue Gu hesitated and spoke: "If something attacked them If so, is there more than one of them?"

Lu Rougua immediately denied her guess: "Impossible, let alone several. Even if there is only one, I should have discovered it long ago."

The discussion reached this point and soon reached a dead end - Lin Sanjiu scratched his hair anxiously, and many thoughts rolled through his mind: Is it a mutated creature? Fallen species? Special items? Copy?

As soon as the word "copy" came into her mind, she immediately raised her head, attracting everyone's attention.

"This...could it be a dungeon?" Lin Sanjiu said slowly, her heart pounding because of this small breakthrough.

"I x, it's possible!" Rabbit suddenly jumped up, "Don't some copies just disappear silently, and you don't even know they were introduced to you!"

Except for Xue Jin, who had just evolved and didn't quite understand the meaning of "dungeon", the others also cheered up and swept away their previous dejection. Regarding the possibility of a dungeon, you and I spoke. We discussed it eloquently for a long time.

"If this is the case, then they may not die for the time being -" Probably because everyone's confusion has been relieved a lot, Rabbit expressed his worries in one breath: "The dungeon cannot be done according to the normal routine. ! We still have time!"

Lin Sanjiu also felt that the heaviness that had been pressing on his internal organs was relieved a lot. The guilt eased and her thoughts became more active. She immediately answered: "Although I don't know what form this copy is, there must be a next step. We must be prepared... Well, let's do this. I will start from the Garden of Eden." There are a lot of things brought out in the laboratory. Let's divide them tonight and try to increase our maximum combat power in a short time."

Before escaping from the Garden of Eden, she ordered the girls who were following her each to carry a large backpack. If they couldn't find the backpack, they tied it with a bed sheet and made a big cloth bag on their back. After all, there were only 8 items that she could transform herself, so she only picked out large items that were difficult to hold. The small items that she carried out were all slowly turned into cards on the road.

Lin Sanjiu lined up everything that might be useful in the form of cards on the ground.

Xue Ku's eyes moved and he was the first to pick up a card. It was the [Girl Blowing Bubbles] who had caused them so much trouble at that time.

"This can be used as a night guard!" She said a little excitedly.

[Girl blowing bubbles]:

Produced by the Machine Technology Department of Eden Laboratory, it looks like a sturdy kindergarten girl with a height of 1.8 meters, holding a bottle of soapy water to blow bubbles. In the bottle of soapy water, there is an extreme energy compression device, and the bubbles blown out can achieve small explosions. But the most powerful thing is the "enemy tracking ability" of the bubbles - they track all the way, and only after confirming the enemy's figure, the bubbles will explode at the enemy.

Lin Sanjiu nodded and eliminated the robot from being stuck. Suddenly, a brightly colored plastic-like doll with a stiff smile on its face appeared in the night, and its tall shadow seemed to give everyone a It brings some sense of security. While Xue Qui was studying how to operate it, everyone also looked at the remaining cards and divided some as needed.

After having a clue, everyone's mental state was much better. After experimenting with things for a while, the elder sister of the twins spoke metaphysically: "...Boss, it's still early before dawn. Wouldn't it be better to rest for a while? ”

Because no one knows what the next step of the copy will be, waiting in fear is not an option. Rabbit thought for a while, and arranged the people who took turns to watch the night very grandly: "I think so, everyone should recharge their batteries this morning... Green Rougua, you are worth two hours of the night, and then change, uh, What's your name? Back to Chu Yan, right..."

Seeing that Rabbit had arranged things in an orderly manner, Lin Sanjiu took out a backpack and used it as a pillow, and lay down next to the fire. Rabbit gave the final instruction, "Please count the number of people every thirty minutes so that no one is missing again!" Then he found a comfortable place to lie down and huddle together.

He really looks like a boss.

Except for Lvrougua who was on duty at night, everyone else was lying on the ground in twos and threes. Although no one fell asleep for a while, it still quickly became quiet, and soon even each other's breathing could be heard clearly.

I don’t know how much time passed while staring at the night sky. Although Lin Sanjiu had been half-hearted, he actually fell asleep.

Unexpectedly, I slept peacefully this time—quietly, nothing strange happened. ~IndoMTL.com~ When she slowly opened her eyes naturally from her dream, it was not yet dawn, the fire had been extinguished, and everything was dark. She could only vaguely see a few shadows not far away, as well as those around her. Tall [girl blowing bubbles].

It seemed like nothing happened... Lin Sanjiu rubbed his eyes, sat up, and asked in a low voice: "...Who is on night watch now?"

The sound of wind passed by in the distance, and the only response to her was silence.

Lin Sanjiu’s palms suddenly became sweaty.

Looking carefully, those shadows seemed to be backpacks that everyone used to sleep on... However, the backpacks were empty, and there were still traces of being pressed down.

Where are people, people?

Somehow, the first thing she did was to call out [Dog Frisbee] - and then she took it into her mouth.

The lights didn't turn on as she expected. r1152
