Chapter 841 Earth Dragon
The gap in the passage, the transformed corpse demon and the sudden anonymous email, these series of events were completely connected. Qi Lin vaguely felt that the 1029 refuge, which was in full swing, seemed to have become a star captured by a black hole, slowly falling towards the dark and light-free abyss.
No one knows what will happen next, but in short, most of the things that are about to happen are definitely bad things.
It seems not a wise decision to stay in Sanctuary No. 1029. This anonymous email is right. Qi Lin would better find an excuse to leave here and wait until the conspiracy hidden behind the scenes surfaced before making another decision.
Qi Lin needs to help the organization win this war, but this does not mean that he will jump into the bottomless muddy waters and win the No. 1029 refuge. It does not necessarily mean that the organization has won the victory. Although it will be more uncomfortable for the organization to lose this place, it is just a discomfort. In fact, both sides are still in a balanced position.
The only one who was most affected was "pawns" like Qi Lin and Zhao Weiju. After all, they were the ones fighting on the front line.
Qi Lin's heart had already developed a desire to retreat... If the master brain had intervened in the battle situation of the 1029th refuge as stated in the anonymous letter, this war would probably turn from a civil war between two human groups into a direct war between humans and the master brain at any time. At that time, it would be difficult to get out again.
No matter how strong Qi Lin is, his role in the frontal battlefield in a war of this scale is very limited - he can kill a thousand enemies, or even more, but this thousand people are completely unpalatable to the total number of enemies, and the price Qi Lin needs to pay for this may be all, including life.
However, before leaving here, Qi Lin had another thing that must be solved.
That is to block the gap in this external channel - at least he and Zhao Weiju had some friendship, and threw this mess here and patted their butts and left. That was really not something Qi Lin could do.
After Qi Lin returned to the alliance defense zone, he organized all the extra troops in the defense zone. He divided dozens of people into a group of power armor and about fifteen infantrymen, and asked them to conduct a dragnet-style search within the occupied area to find those mutated creatures that might sneak into the shelter.
As for Qi Lin himself, he took another group of people to the external passage that should have been blocked.
...
...
This outer passage is located in an uninhabited area at the edge of the middle area. There is no residential area here. A barbed wire mesh more than three meters high surrounded the entire area. However, at this time, many large and small holes had been torn open on the barbed wire mesh, and many fresh blood stains were stained at the edge of the hole.
When Qi Lin brought his men here, he happened to run into an e-level "Earth Dragon". This is a reptile mutant creature with lizard genes and is close relatives with the King Blood Dragon Lizard. It has no wings and cannot fly like the King Blood Dragon Lizard, so it was named "Earth Dragon".
Earth Dragon is a very cruel mutant creature. Some biologists believe that they may be a mutated Komodo dragon. However, the Komodo dragon, which was once one of the endangered species, is only two to three meters, and the length of an adult Earth Dragon can easily exceed twenty meters without considering its tail length.
This is a ground dragon that is nearly 30 meters long. Judging from the color depth of the scales on the surface, the ground dragon is about three years old.
Don’t think that three years old is a juvenile body. In the radiation environment of the wasteland, the growth rate of organisms cannot be calculated in conventional ways. Three-year-old earth dragons can be considered the oldest and earliest batch to complete mutation.
"The non-combatants retreated a hundred meters, and the others were on standby."
After Qi Lin finished speaking, he controlled the Thunder Hammer to fly directly above the Earth Dragon. As soon as he entered the hovering state, he turned off the Thunder Hammer's jet thruster.
The Thor's hammer weighing several tons fell straight down, and then hit the back of the earth dragon heavily. The beam saber held in Qi Lin's hands also penetrated from the earth dragon's head.
The earth dragon struggled violently, but several steel nails suddenly shot out from the legs of the Thunder God Hammer, and deeply nailed into the cuticle layer of the earth dragon's back, firmly fixing Qi Lin on the earth dragon's body. Then, Qi Lin began to stir the beam saber in his hand vigorously-
The earth dragon is very large, but its brain capacity is only about 0.5 times that of a normal human. In its huge head, the brain only accounts for a very small part of the volume.
Qi Lin could not determine whether this knife hit the earth dragon's head, but it didn't matter if it didn't. With his subsequent stirring, the high-temperature light blade directly burned everything in the earth dragon's head. In Qi Lin's memory, there was a dish called "Monkey Brain" in the old era. People used utensils to fix the living monkey under the table, and then exposed the monkey's head from the round hole on the table. The skilled chef used an axe to cut off the monkey's skull, and then poured boiling water into the monkey's brain...
This way of eating is extremely bloody, but it is not much different from what Qi Lin is doing now.
The earth dragon's brain is also a rare delicacy in the "Wasteland Survival Code", and after consumption, it can also allow players to gain radiation resistance for a period of time.
Unfortunately, the temperature of the lightsaber is much higher than that of boiling water. After splitting the head of the Earth Dragon, it is estimated that the only thing left in it is charred carbides.
The earth dragon struggled gradually weakened, and the big guy's vitality was very tenacious. After his brain was destroyed, it took several minutes before he died completely, and turned into a gradually stiff corpse.
“Dangerous contact.”
Qi Lin waved to the people behind and shouted: "Let the second team go back and bring more cement. MD, Earth Dragon and other guys can come in. This gap must be small!"
...
As Qi Lin said, at the passage about fifty meters away from the surface, a cave with a diameter of ten meters appeared on the passage wall. The edge of the cave was also covered with many sticky secretions unique to the earth dragon, which seemed particularly disgusting.
The entire cave is about 300 meters long and has a vertical depth of 25 meters. The exit is about 100 meters west of the original passageway...
