Sinmonger Chapter 14: Survival
Darkwater's body turned completely black, looking like solidified tar, its body did not return to the size of a pocket human, but maintained the height of a modern human like John. The head has begun to recover.
The head that was just blown up by the bullet should be empty above the neck, but now, the black mucus is creeping and growing, and the outline of a chin has been completed. For the whole head, it is about three points below the nose. One of the volumes has been substantially reconstituted and regenerated.
The gunsmith raised the bone gun, ready to give him a few more shots, but after thinking about it, he put the gun down again.
Previously, Dark Water pulled out objects from the esophagus. It can be seen that there are no important and deadly organs inside his body, and it has been proved from the side that he has the ability to heal himself, so the gunsmith chose to attack the head. But at this moment, his head was beaten to the ground, and it was still able to regenerate, which showed that his vital point was definitely not in the head.
The gunsmith's gaze went from top to bottom, left to right, front to back, and glanced at Darkwater's "corpse" five or six times. When he began to feel that he was a little perverted, he thought of changing his way of thinking.
Assuming that the dark water is similar to the liquid metal robot in a movie, then according to the law of conservation of mass, the black slime that is spilled should flow back, gather and form, and become the head of the dark water again. That way, the cargo should only take a minute to recover. Therefore, the self-healing of dark water obviously relies on other forms.
"According to what he said before, he should be a creature rather than a machine... He is not hungry, fatigued, not necessarily breathing, and 80% has no heartbeat." The gunsmith whispered, trying to figure out the self-healing principle of dark water.
Human wound healing generally relies on cell proliferation, differentiation, repair and shaping. In today's world, the Empire's top medical methods, even if there is a large area of physical trauma on the body, as long as it is combined with advanced equipment and stem cell-assisted treatment, it will take at least 70 hours to recover. However, the price of this method is very high, and it also needs to bear a certain amount of pain. Even nobles rarely try it easily.
But the self-healing ability of the dark water is far superior to any treatment method known to the gunsmith. He does not need any instruments or chemicals, only his own secretions can even blow his head off. Growing up, doesn't this thing have no brains? Impossible, the brain grows in the ass? Not so much, right?
The gunsmith fired another shot, this time in the heart, and as a result, Darkwater's chest cavity burst open, and two machetes wrapped in black mucus can be seen in his body. It left a very shallow bullet mark, the same mark that the bullet that pierced through the head of the dark water hit a distant wall. This shows that Dark Water's body has triggered the change in the power of the bone gun bullet, and the explosion did not occur because its hardness is not enough, but its toughness is very strong.
The rebirth of Dark Water's head was not affected by this gun at all, and his chest began to heal itself. The recovery speed was similar to that of the head. Although it was slow, the sun set and the moon went up the mountain without interruption.
The bone gun can hold up to ten bullets, and the gunsmith estimates that it would be futile to shoot the rest on Darkwater. Perhaps the life forms of the dark water are really far beyond human beings, just as the science in this ruin is beyond the comprehension of gunsmiths.
He still does not understand the reason why he will lose his physiological needs by staying here; the previous space transfer technology has also puzzled him. He has also made a space transfer device, but that kind of transfer requires a certain amount of preparation time, and only To be able to transmit all objects in a certain carrier indiscriminately, that's all, he completed it based on the mysterious technology provided by Tianyi. However, the transfer in the ruins can start at the moment of activation, selectively transferring the internal objects, so that the carrier itself is not affected.
Thinking about the space flips he encountered on the river earlier, the unknown magnetic field that could make mechanical instruments fail, and the eternal core in his pocket, the gunsmith felt more and more that the science of this civilization was too dangerous, dangerous to the point of To the point where it threatens the entire planet. This place should not be discovered by anyone, this fellow of the dark water should be buried underground for a long time.
The gunsmith turned around and stopped taking care of the dark water for the time being. At this speed, he might not be able to get up after half a day. The Gunsmith will continue to explore the ruins to see if there is any way to make this place stop functioning again.
Who knew he had just walked a few steps when the surrounding light suddenly dimmed, the most obvious being the sun and moon symbols on the dome mural. The gunsmith froze in place, licked his tongue, looked around, and then tried to take two steps forward. This time, the room was almost pitch-dark, and there were only a few cyan lights around him that persisted. This kind of scene feels like a singer is holding a concert in a venue that can accommodate 30,000 people. As a result, when the lights are turned off, it is found that the number of audience members with glow sticks is less than one, and the seats are very scattered.
The gunsmith turned his face forward, kept his posture, and took a few steps back, as if he wanted to pretend that he didn't do anything just now, but he didn't think that this would really restore the light in the giant room a little.
A thought flashed through his mind, he turned back and rushed towards the statue, the blue light around him was getting brighter and brighter. When the gunsmith ran up to the statue, took the Eternal Core out of his pocket, and stretched his hand forward, everything was back to normal.
The corner of the gunsmith's mouth twitched. He knew that the Eternal Core was the driving force behind the entire ruin. Originally, the dark water was hiding in the underground world in some form, but one day, the Eternal Core was for some reason. It was damaged and became what it is now, so the dark water was awakened by some device, or he was awake, who knows, anyway, in this place with no physiological needs, God knows if he cares about the flow of time , God knows why he didn't have a mental breakdown, God knows if he has a mental thing...
In short, the dark water uses the remaining energy of the eternal core to make the relic rise, or let some parts of the relic rise, and operate, intervene in the outside world, and try to communicate with the world thousands of years later, see Is there a way to solve my own problem. But the dark water never imagined that back then, his hometown, a place where scientific and technological civilization was once prosperous, is now a barren land. The nearest civilized group may be a group of K-fans, and they have to meet this group. The drug lord would have to search for at least another tens of kilometers.
Now the gunsmith understands that taking the eternal core from the mouth of the statue is equivalent to taking away the dry batteries in the remote control, and the folding space, magnetic field interference, and protruding relic spires must all be scrapped. No wonder Dark Water wants to lead himself here before acting. If he chooses to take the core out, he needs to take a lot of risks. He has no idea whether the creatures on the ground are friendly or hostile, weak or powerful. In terms of the law of dark water, it would not make such a choice.
After he figured it out, he no longer hesitated. He raised the bone gun and shot at the high dome. The metal of the wall of this giant room is of the same type as the spire dug before, so the gas that exploded after the bullet hit the wall The waves are still very strong.
This layer of metal wall is very thick, but only one layer. After being broken, the outside is the mud under the swamp. The silt and soil poured down like a waterfall, and a mound was built in the giant room. The space is huge enough that it will take some time to fill up.
The hole on the dome is about half a meter in diameter, and its shape is relatively regular. The silt poured in did not expand the hole. Of course, this was also expected by the gunsmith. This metal is not stone or wood, and it will not deform due to this pressure.
Darkwater's body and statue were soon buried, and the gunsmith retreated to the wall, holding the Eternal Core to illuminate, the light of this thing was very weak, but fortunately the light symbols on the surrounding walls and high places were still there It wasn't all out, so the place wasn't completely dark yet. The gunsmith's eyesight is very good, and this light is enough. When the dirt poured out of a hill, no longer rising, but accelerating towards the surrounding area, the gunsmith rushed along the **** to the high point, he didn't care about the dirt, and endured the disgusting smell in his mouth and nose. , he struggled to stand as high as possible, and fired another shot into the top hole at a near-vertical angle.
Gunsmiths have done this kind of experiment before, that is, what are the effective defense methods for bone guns. One of the tests is to use objects with a density higher than water but lower than the trigger value to block the bullets of the bone gun. For example, the strength and toughness of soil cannot make the bullets fired by the bone gun change qualitatively. So as long as the soil reaches a sufficient thickness, it can stay in this medium after consuming the kinetic energy of the bone gun bullets?
Unfortunately, the experiment at that time ended in failure. The bullet continued to penetrate the material similar to the soil until its speed dropped to a low value, and the quality changed. count. So according to that data, the gun would still explode like a bazooka and penetrate the target, but not immediately, but after a certain distance.
The gunsmith estimates that the ruins will not be too deep, otherwise the ground heave he encountered before may evolve into crustal cracks and the like, and he speculates that these ruins are likely to be many separate individual buildings underground, otherwise There is no need to use any transfer technology, just build a door directly in the two adjacent places.
He shot four more vertical shots at the hole, separated by a few seconds each time. Even though the falling dirt continued to hit the gunsmith's body and flowed into his clothes, his hands remained motionless, as steady as a rock. All four bullets pierce upwards with exactly the same trajectory.
The gunsmith wasn't sure if he would be able to escape, but he had to try. After doing this, the ideal state should be that there is a large conical pit on the ground of the rainforest about the size of a swimming pool, the depth is about 30 meters, the bottom is sealed, and there are more than ten meters to a few meters below. The soil layer in the ten-meter interval, and further down is this hole.
Of course, these are all assumptions. If the ruins are really buried very deep, the gunsmith's bullets are just a hollow hole in the cheese, which will soon be filled with the surrounding soil, and he is located in In the solid hole tens of meters below this hollow hole ~IndoMTL.com~ it would be suffocating to climb up.
There was not much time left for him. The giant room was about to be filled. Just as he was about to take a deep breath in this dusty environment and take a long hold, the mud pouring down his head stopped.
When the gunsmith was stunned, a ray of light shot down. It was undoubtedly sunlight, a long-lost ultraviolet light.
He was overjoyed, jumped up from the top of the mound, grabbed the circular opening, and turned over to go out. The shape of the outside landscape was similar to his estimated shape, but the depth was more optimistic than he imagined. The soil layer of rice does not exist, because the space in the giant room has digested all the mud, and the gunsmith who climbed out is staying at the bottom of a cone-shaped soil hole similar to a cone, about twenty meters above the ground.
I just took a breath of the air outside, and my feet trembled like an earthquake. Seeing that the path to escape from the sky above my head was about to bury myself under this sudden change, the gunsmith was startled and rushed up like a monkey. , escaped the pit in a few seconds and returned to the ground.
Then, the ground below his feet subsided for several hundred meters, and the deep hole he just climbed out of was also filled and disappeared. Afterwards, the gunsmith was a little scared when he thought about it, but he soon understood that because the Eternal Core was brought out, the giant room completely lost its power, and it sank.
"Hahahaha!!" When everything calmed down, the gunsmith was lying on the ground in a big font, laughing up to the sky, breathing in the humid air in the rainforest to his heart's content, and now he could smell the unpleasant smell. So refreshing.
Two seconds later, his expression changed, but he heard his stomach growl a few times, and a feeling of extreme exhaustion rolled up like a tsunami, but he didn't fall asleep, but a carp kicked up, got up and ran wildly, Rush into the woods, unbuttoned his pants...
