Chapter 779 The ending of Pumas?

But at this time, the sandworm in Lubes's mouth looks very different from the outside:

It was thin, small, dry, and the pattern on the outer skin was different. After being held in its mouth, it drooped down like noodles, and it looked like it was dead.

Then Fang Linyan continued to walk forward, and found that almost all the sandworms below were like this, they were extremely thin, and some were even only the length of chopsticks, and their temperament was very violent.

But after being bitten to death by Rubes, the ones behind simply shrank into the sand and did not dare to come out.

Obviously, the sandworms here should be wild species, a semi-mutated creature that appeared after being irradiated by the previous Pumas, and then the Blood Umbrella Company discovered them and transformed them to protect the desert outside.

"Huh? Why is the smell of blood so strong over there?"

It turned out that in order not to be attacked by sandworms at this time, Lubos had already turned on the smell visualization effect. Fang Linyan looked over through the night vision goggles, and he could see a large black and red fog in the distance. , which shows that the smell of blood over there is extremely strong, even covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters.

After careful identification, it should be the location of the pier when the underground lake was still there in the past, and the submersible was also docked in that area, so Fang Linyan asked Ao's Ember to take a look. Of course, he must be very careful this time. Didn't get close to the ground, and found that there were actually a lot of bones and incomplete corpses piled up there! !
Just when Ao's embers flew over, a truck drove over. This thing was similar in shape to a garbage truck.

Then it drove to the former underground lake and today's underground basin, and then the carriage rose automatically, the trunk door opened directly, and the corpses inside fell down like rain.

If you look carefully, only a small part of the corpses inside are human-like, and most of them have sharp teeth and claws, twisted and mutated, hideous and fearful. They should be the experimental products that Veronica's laboratory failed to concoct, and they fell directly on the ground. In the dry underground lake.

At this time, several obviously fatter sandworms pounced on it, feasting on these fresh corpses.

Some wild sandworms on the periphery wanted to approach, but they were chased away by their much stronger and thicker companions. Obviously, these wild sandworms were not united and had a strong sense of class. Only the larger wild sandworms were full. Afterwards, the rest dared to step forward.

These wild sandworm swarms play the role of cleaners here, and they play the role of scavengers biome, disposing of corpses for Veronica's laboratory.

As the laboratory that provides food, it will regularly hunt and kill the big guys in the sandworm swarm. After all, their spines can also refine expensive metals such as "Basher Steel". Mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. what.

For Veronica's lab, these wild sandworms can not only help clean up corpses, but also use waste to refine metals, which is a very cost-effective arrangement.

After figuring out the layout, Fang Linyan became more daring when he acted. After all, this place has become a corpse dumping ground, and no one would come here at ordinary times, so he continued to descend to the bottom of the lake and came to the The place where the huge body of Pumas stayed in the past.

Of course, there is only one huge pit left in this place at this time!However, some large parts and the like can be vaguely seen scattered in the giant pit.

After Fang Linyan half-kneeled on the ground to examine it carefully, he was shocked.

It turns out that on the dirt here, what remains are a large number of crawler ruts!This kind of rutting seems to be caused by a large number of construction machinery.

According to Fang Linyan's knowledge, although Desini, an artificial intelligence affiliated to Pumas, has the ability to build large-scale projects, it cannot get so many construction machinery, otherwise its excavation progress would not be so slow.

Not only that, when Pumas came to the earth, in order to avoid the pursuit of the enemy in the rear, before falling into the atmosphere, he also absorbed the space stations of the United States and Russia in the low-earth orbit, and the satellites were used as their own armor for defensive buffer .

Therefore, when it landed, it seemed to be huge in size. In fact, most of it was just shells made up of space stations or satellites. At this time, these "shells" were scattered and piled up on the bottom of the lake.

Combining all these situations, Fang Linyan can basically deduce that the tragic experience of Pumas in this world is probably because no contractor can trigger the hidden task to clean up the rust poison in his body and relieve his symptoms. Then Pumas Si's vitality will continue to dissipate, and he should die in the end.

After it died, the two artificial intelligence life forms attached to Pumas: Light Wheel and Desini were probably trees without roots and water without sources, and they couldn't organize much resistance.

Therefore, under the exploration of the Blood Umbrella Organization at all costs, this place was finally captured by them. Valuable things such as the wreckage of Pumas were directly transported away, such as space stations that make up the outer shell, and products of backward technology such as satellites. It was worthless to the Blood Umbrella Organization, so it was directly abandoned here.

Fang Linyan even further deduced that the rapid development of artificial intelligence in this world may be due to the research results obtained after the capture of two artificial intelligence beings: Light Wheel and Desini.

Fang Linyan searched inside these shells, but found nothing valuable. He wanted to see if he could pick up some leaks, to see if things like the Quintesque Box would remain, but it was a pity. However, the shrewd Blood Umbrella Organization did not give itself a chance.

After sighing in disappointment, Fang Linyan thought about it, and felt that he was probably going to return empty-handed, a waste of time.But if you think about it carefully, the advantage of coming here is that Pumas does exist, or once existed in this world.

In other words, it is basically certain that the fire source on the moon exists!According to the news sent by Omi before, that side mission can buy me two or three days. If you are lucky, then it is not difficult to prepare for the moon landing in two or three days. After all, the benefits of the contractor , that is, there is no need to consider how to return from the moon.

Just when Fang Linyan was about to leave, he always felt that something was wrong, or that he had been ignored by him!When he saw the "Ao's Ember" next to him, he suddenly woke up to something.

How did he summon "Ao's Ember"?

It was because the previous mechanical gyrfalcon was destroyed by the erupting pulse wave.

But the source of this pulse wave comes from the instinctive twitch of Pumas' mechanically activated heart!That means one thing!Although Pumas was salvaged from the bottom of the lake, he is still alive?
Thinking of this, Fang Linyan's heart skipped a beat, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt.

The pulse waves emitted by Pumas' activated heart are extremely powerful, and the coverage area even reaches hundreds of square kilometers, and a small Bermuda area is abruptly created here.

The military value of this thing is unimaginable. If he is in charge of the research project, he will definitely not let go of the research on this thing.

Since this is the case, if it is confirmed that Pumas is in this base, it is still worth exploring!

Obviously, if Pumas is still alive, he will definitely be very dissatisfied with his current state. After all, no matter who it falls on, being studied is not a pleasant thing.

So saving him must be a hidden side mission. Not only that, Fang Linyan felt that he could get more details about the moon base and the ultimate secret of the world from him.

After thinking about it carefully, Fang Linyan took a deep breath, and he already had a plan in his mind. After all, Veronica Lab was familiar to him, even though he experienced all this in another plane. of.

So Fang Linyan identified the direction and walked directly towards the underground lake --- the east side of the current underground basin. According to his previous experience, it should be the energy supply area of ​​the entire Veronica Laboratory, a nuclear power plant!

Although it is a different world at this time, the ones occupying this place are all huge and mysterious Blood Umbrella Organizations, and the choices they make should be indistinguishable.

Moreover, the terrain here is extremely remote, and it does not have the strength to transport bulk fuel in and out, and the underground water source cannot support the operation of the hydropower station, so it is obvious that the nuclear power station is the best solution.

Sure enough, Fang Linyan quickly discovered through the embers of Ao that flew in the air that the place that was lifeless in his impression had become brightly lit. It seemed that although there was a sentry at the gate, he seemed absent-minded.
