Dawn Infinity Chapter 8: : Human traces
At about 5:30 in the afternoon, all team members had returned to the square, and brought back a large amount of canvas, plastic sheeting, wood boards, aluminum alloy blocks and metal bars, etc., all piled high on the square. They were collected together, and after Chu Hao carefully selected among them, he selected some cloth and wood, as well as aluminum alloy blocks, and put them into his space fragments.

"Almost, let's rush to the edge of the city first, and then find a huge tree to live in. It's too late today, and we will start making hot air balloons tomorrow, preferably tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, and then we rush to New York."
After Chu Hao made a decision, he took everyone to find a few cars that could still be driven, and drove directly to the outside of the city.
The location of this city has basically been figured out. It is located in a certain city in Tennessee. It is still a long way from here to New York, and everyone only has 30 days. There is no delay.
Do not drive for too long. Everyone has come to the edge of the city. From here, the fields outside have been covered with green grass and trees, and the highway road can only be vaguely seen, and even the grass on both sides of the highway has almost grown to the road. , that feeling of wastefulness made everyone feel even stronger.
At this moment, it is already about six o'clock, the sun is about to set, and the whole sky is fiery red. After a while, the sky will darken. From then on, it will be extremely dangerous to be outside this wilderness, and everyone does not care about it. Knowing what Chu Hao exchanged, except for a few people, the rest began to get nervous, and Aoqi said directly: "Captain, do we have to travel overnight? But those zombies, no, I think they should be called mutants." People, those mutants hunt at night, you might meet them on the highway!"
"Of course it's impossible to hurry at night."
Chu Hao smiled slightly, and went straight to find the thickest tree, and after closing his eyes silently in front of this tree, he opened his eyes and began to make gestures, and then recited a spell, and then In everyone's eyes, a wooden gate emerged from the trunk of the tree.
Everyone saw that Chu Hao opened the door. Behind the door was not a tree trunk, but a wooden room, and there were wooden chairs, tables, beds and so on. The floors are all wooden, and there are even windows, which looks a bit like a vacation cabin in the countryside. [For more exciting novels, please visit]
Chu Hao walked directly into the wooden house, and the others hesitated for a while, and followed Chu Hao into it. After walking inside, everyone discovered that the room was not small, at least fifty More than one square meter, although there is only one room, it is not difficult for this room to accommodate the members of the entire Arctic continent team, but in fact, the diameter of the trunk of this big tree is definitely not more than ten meters, this room is bigger than Trees are much bigger.
"After the door is closed, it is directly the trunk of a big tree from the outside, and even if the trunk is broken, it is impossible to enter our room. To be precise, this room should be a shrunken The demiplane cannot enter this space without using special methods, or breaking through the magic limit with great energy. Of course, windows and other things will not be displayed from the outside. This tree is just a tree, so We are absolutely safe here. The only pity is that the size of this room is determined by the tree, and a tree smaller than the thickness of a door cannot use this magic, and it can only last for 24 hours. Two After fourteen hours, the tree will be dead."
Although Chu Hao said so, he is very satisfied with this magic. Perhaps this magic has a lot of restrictions under the dnd rule. For example, the druids in the dnd rule will prevent the spread of this magic. Use, use will use force, and there are gods in the forest system to prevent it, so this magic that consumes the life of a tree of a certain age does have restrictions under the dnd rule.
But for the real world, this magic is extremely useful. It is necessary for home travel, murder and arson. You only need a big tree to have a near-absolutely safe residence, and you don't have to worry about the dangers in the wild. , and it can also be regarded as a kind of magic that hides all signs. This kind of magic is simply too cost-effective. If you want to use technology or creation to achieve this, you must invest at least tens of thousands of reward points to do it, but Magic only needs a tree.
The rest of the team were obviously very excited about such a wooden house, not to mention safety, living in this way really saved the pain of traveling, especially the newcomer girl, who was even more excited to walk around in the wooden house.
Another thing to mention, since the return of reality, this new girl is obviously much better than before, and she can also talk and laugh, and she is no longer as lifeless as before. active.
Now that they have a safe place to live, everyone is finally relieved, and immediately started preparing dinner. Because of Chu Hao's space fragments, there is no shortage of ingredients. Although there is no chef, many people present They all have cooking experience, so they won't eat half-baked food. Although the taste cannot be guaranteed to be delicious, it can be full anyway, right? And you can eat very full...for example, Nian Xikong...
After dinner, everyone was chatting with each other, and Zhang Heng turned over a deck of cards from nowhere, pulled Tom and Aoqi and started Fighting the Landlord. After a few strokes, the newcomer girl Billis suddenly exclaimed and focused everyone's attention, and Billis suddenly pointed to the distance and said: "There, there is a fire!"
Everyone stood up quickly and gathered in front of the window. Sure enough, looking out from the window, there seemed to be a faint light of fire far away from the horizon, but it was not obvious. Looking at it from a distance, it's just a little bit of red dot. If it wasn't for the so-called light source pollution in this era, or if it were placed in the normal world, even in the wild, it would be impossible to see such a little bit of light.
Everyone saw the fire, and they all stared at Chu Hao at the same time, Chu Hao was silent for a moment, then shook his head firmly and said: "No, one is that the distance is too far, even if it is Nian Xikong, you go , It will also take a long time. When rushing over, there is no one there, and it is too dangerous at night. When the door is opened, creatures outside can rush in. I can’t make fun of your lives , so I will not promise you to leave this room, at most record the direction, we will search tomorrow, and people who can live from the end to the present generally have a way to deal with these mutants, maybe this flame is them One of the best ways, if we rush over, maybe it will hurt them instead, so that's it, we won't go out."
There was nothing to say that night, the next day when it was bright and the sun came out, everyone left the tree house. Outside the tree house, the vehicles that everyone drove yesterday obviously showed traces of being rummaged and pushed, and the ground on the ground There are also many footprints. Obviously, outside the tree house, I don’t know how many mutants have been here yesterday. Immediately, the newcomer girl and Tom murmured that it was fortunate that they didn’t leave the tree house yesterday, otherwise they would definitely be hit. and so on.
Chu Hao has already speculated about these mutants. First, their metabolism is extremely fast. This can be seen from the plot of the movie, so their body temperature rises and they are very sensitive to cold , Second, because of the accelerated metabolism, their strength is extremely high and their speed is extremely fast, and it is likely to increase the strength of muscles and bones at the same time. Almost every mutant is about ten times stronger than ordinary people.
The above are the two characteristics that are directly reflected in the plot. Secondly, Chu Hao guessed that their sense of smell should be sensitive, otherwise the protagonist would not spray disinfectant to remove the smell every time he returns, and the last woman in the plot The failure to spray disinfectant immediately caused these mutants to find the room where the male protagonist was, and this sense of smell allowed them to hunt prey better.
That's right, the speeding up of metabolism not only brings physical improvement, but also increases their food consumption, and their lifespan should also be reduced, and it is naturally impossible for these mutants to grow anything. Then they can only hunt various creatures. Of course, they may also dig plant tubers and fruits. After all, they are also mutated by humans, so they should still be omnivorous, because they are not real zombies after all, not those dead people.
Not to mention these~IndoMTL.com~ When everyone left the tree house, Chu Hao immediately ordered Nian Xikong to rush to the place where the fire was shining last night. Returning there, but the information she brought back made Chu Hao think for a while, because she found an overturned cargo truck there, and there were a lot of food and various human supplies in the truck, such as paper, such as clothes , and even toothpaste, and the large truck had exploded, and it was burnt to a mess. Blood was also found at the scene, but no corpse was found. In addition, according to Nian Xikong, there were also found There are many traces of vehicles running, and if traces can be left, it means that vehicles have driven past at least recently.
"In other words, there should be human gathering places in the nearby mountains or plateaus?"
Chu Hao murmured with interest, and beside him, Zhang Heng immediately asked: "You seem to be very interested? Are you planning to find a gathering place for surviving humans?"
Chu Hao suddenly laughed, and he smiled and said, "Yes, if you can find a gathering place of surviving human beings along the way, then why not? Right, Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Heng, we came out of Area 51 in the United States The last survivor of the secret laboratory of the human government, if you don’t find the place where the survivors gather, how can you do it?”
"We are...the saviors of this world."
