The sky was getting darker, and there seemed to be lightning gathering in the clouds, and there was an indistinct muffled sound from time to time.Werther searched for the next route as quickly as possible, but either the terrain was unknown, or he needed to go backwards and make a big circle, and it would even take an hour or two longer.

No matter which road is better than the current one, and it will rain soon, going back and detour will increase the danger.

Zhuang Jiu immediately made a decision, pulled out a protective suit from under the car seat, and put on a mask; Werther also put on a special full-body metal suit and gloves.

The two opened the car door, Werther quickly made sure that there were no other living beings nearby, and then cautiously approached the empty shell.

Even if it is dead, even if its body has been hollowed out, it cannot be determined whether there are active viruses, parasites, etc. on its body.In addition, there is such a large empty shell in front of it, and even its predecessor is a mutated cockroach, so you must take a full set of protection if you want to get close.

Werther has a heat sensing system on his body, and it can clearly sense that the outer shell is still emitting a slight heat, perhaps because he died not long ago, so the heat has not completely dissipated.

Just as he walked to the edge of the shell, Zhuang Jiu smelled a foul smell coming from the hollow interior.She frowned slightly, and pressed the mask tighter.

Although it seems that the shell is only a thin layer, it feels strangely soft to the touch under the hand, and it is hard to use it.Zhuang Jiu and Werther pushed for a long time before the shell moved slightly less than half a meter to the left.Witte is a robot and won’t feel tired, but Zhuangjiu’s current body is 7 years ago, not the body that has been trained 7 years later, so he is already exhausted at the moment, and he waved his hand, “Witt, wait, I’ll starttake a break."

After resting on the ground for a while, she roughly recovered some strength, and just when she was about to stand up and continue, suddenly Werther stood up and rammed Zhuang Jiu directly in the direction of the car!

Zhuang Jiu didn't notice its actions, and fell to the ground and rolled around, looking at Werther with dazed eyes.

At the same time, the layer of "fluff" on the shell trembled crazily, then fell off the shell suddenly, and rushed towards Werther, rolling Werther into the layers of fluff!

Zhuangjiu's eyes widened, and he shouted involuntarily: "Werther——!!"

When that layer of fluff opened, she could clearly see that the bottom of the fluff was densely packed with feet, almost all over the bottom of the fluff!

That's not fluff at all, it's simply a mutated parasite attached to the cockroach!

If Werther hadn't knocked her away just now, the person wrapped by this parasite should be Zhuang Jiu!

The situation was urgent, Zhuang Jiu quickly came to the side of the car, pressed a switch beside it, a small door slowly opened on the side of the car, and a star magnetic gun lay there quietly.

Zhuang Jiu calmly drew out the gun, and aimed at the group of parasites with a single shot!

In an instant, a strong magneto-optic shot out from the muzzle of the gun, hitting the parasite's body heavily.It groaned in pain, half of its body was raised high, revealing its madly waving feet, its mouthparts also opened and retracted, as if it was threatening the Zhuang Jiu who had just attacked it.

This is the time!

Zhuang Jiu fired again.

The powerful recoil almost made her wrist sore, but this time it was not just magneto-optic, the violently rising fireworks instantly burned all the black fluff, and the flames completely enveloped the parasite!

Within a few seconds, it couldn't bear the scorching flames, got off Werther's body, threw itself on the ground and began to roll wildly, trying to suppress the flames all over its body, but how could Zhuang Jiu let it go so easily?Papa fired two more shots, and finally the parasite screamed strangely, fell to the ground with a burning smell, and lost its life.

Werther also broke away from the self-defense system.When I threw down the metal clothing, I found that the metal seemed to have been corroded by liquid, leaving only a layer of rough bottom, and even a large hole was corroded in some places, and there was still a slight blue smoke.

If Zhuang Jiu didn't take out the magnetic star gun in time, or if the flames that could cause fatal damage to the parasites could not be erupted from the magnetic star gun, Werther's metal body might be lost!

Witte's most important chip is still in this body.If even the chip is corroded, although the code is still there, an AI can be recreated, but the AI that reappears will not be Werther after all!

Zhuang Jiu realized the fear after belatedly, and he was relieved only to find that his body was terribly stiff.She came to Werther's side, hugged its neck, and said happily: "Fortunately, fortunately, my reaction is fast enough. If you slow down, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your body."

"I can't lose you anymore!"

Werther patted her on the back: "It's okay, sister, Werther will be fine. Werther put my chip in a safe place before going on the road this time, in the interlayer of the trunk of the car. So, even if this body is lost, Werther is still there, but my sister cannot drive for the rest of the journey."

Zhuang Jiu finally felt relieved, "You still think more about it."

Werther smiled shyly: "Be prepared."

While the two were chatting, the flames beside them had gradually extinguished.The parasite was burned into a scorched black object curled up in a ball.

Werther took out a set of metal clothes and put them on again. Wearing gloves, he carried the parasite to the edge of a cliff not far away, and threw it down hard!

Looking at the falling thing, it let out a humane poo.

After doing these things, it goes back and pushes the shell again with the wine.The shell was much lighter, and it was pushed for a long distance in a short while. It seemed that the hard work just now was all due to the weight of the parasite.

Pushing the cockroach shells to the bottom of the cliff also made the way down a lot easier.Zhuang Jiu took off the protective clothing and set it on fire. Werther also disinfected the metal clothing, himself, and Zhuang Jiu before returning to the car.

The raindrops began to hit the dirt and the roof of the car, beating out a rhythmic rhythm.Werther hurriedly set off, and finally, before the rainstorm completely fell, the two saw the shadow of the base from a distance.

After they left, the parasites and cockroach shells that Werther threw down the mountain were also washed by the rain, gradually washing away their stench and burnt smell.

Under the heavy rain, a passing bee hastily hid in the temporary shelter alley built by the shell.Standing on a slightly protruding hard shell, it looked curiously at the dead, scorched and blackened object that fell beside it and was still washed by the rain.

It likes to eat honey, and has little interest in this foul-smelling thing.After being washed by the heavy rain, there is not much pollen left on its body. It smells the smell of the side in distress, but it still can't find the smell of returning home.

What it didn't see was that under the cover of the torrential rain, a black mollusc creature as thin as a fishing line squirmed down from the charred corpse of the parasite and slowly approached the bee.

It didn't know that the danger was approaching. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, but the rainstorm showed no signs of stopping, its wings vibrated slightly, and it flew out of its shell to find its way home, but it didn't notice that its tail needle was caught by a tinyentangled with the creature, and followed it away.

After flying for a long time, the bee was attracted by the tiger lying under the tree next to it, and landed on it silently. At this time, the mollusc creature also got into the tiger's hair in an instant, gently tore open its flesh, and along the wayDrilled under the skin into its brain.

The torrential rain finally fell completely, and the Zhuang Jiu finally arrived at the gate of the base.

The time had already pointed to 8:30 in the evening, and they arrived at the gate of the base more than two hours later than originally planned.After finishing their tasks, the transport robots left the base and flew back to return to their mission. At this time, the base was not turned on, and it looked empty.

This is a base built in the depths of mountain Qin on a flat land with few green plants. It seems to be far more than the one kilometer Zhuang Jiu requested at the beginning, with a radius of about three kilometers.

All the fences were installed with power grids, and a very deep ditch was dug on the outside, which was three meters wide and more than ten meters deep.Even about 15 meters away from the ditch, there is not a single piece of grass.

It perfectly met the requirements Zhuang Jiu mentioned at the time, and even added a lot more.

But the problem now is that this deep ditch surrounds the entire base, separating the gate of the base from the outside world.

In front of Zhuang Jiu was a huge pit.

How would she and her car get in?

While thinking, the gate detected the appearance of Zhuang Jiu's car. Didi scanned it from top to bottom with infrared rays, and then issued a cold metallic sound: "Visitor detected: Star River 239. The identity matches, confirm entry."

The gate opened, and a metal plate extended from the metal bottom, spread out like a red carpet, just above the ditch, connecting a metal road that communicates between the base and the outside.

Star River 239 drove into the base, and the metal road was retracted, and the gate slammed shut, turning the base into an isolated island.

Relict and independent.

Zhuang Jiu suddenly thought of this sentence.

After driving inside for several minutes, Zhuang Jiu saw a familiar villa appearing in front of her eyes.

The layout and construction of the villa she used to live in are very similar, but the color has changed from the original dark gray to...

Uh...grass green?

Werther made a proud voice as if asking for credit: "Although it was only three days, Werther ordered these decoration robots to try to restore the villa we lived in as perfectly as possible. Werther also checked it on the encyclopedia, greenIt seems to be refreshing, and in order to cover up the traces of such a large base here, I took it upon myself to paint the villa green."

Zhuang Jiu praised it violently, until it was fluttering, and then asked weakly: "But there is no grass on the land in this base, and suddenly there is such a large piece of green in the middle.Will it look a little more abrupt when you see it with a star probe?"

Werther thought for a while in silence, "Then why not paint the land green?"

Zhuang Jiu was joking, but Werther was seriously thinking about this issue.She was taken aback, and quickly stopped, "No need! Werther did a great job this time! Anyway, no aircraft can reach here after a while, and the possibility of us being discovered should be relatively small."

It is raining heavily now, and Zhuang Jiu can't look at other things in the base. In addition, she has been on the road for several days and has not had a good rest. At this time, she is not in the mood to observe the things she has stockpiled these days.Where is it.

The Star River 239 was parked in the basement of the house, and the whole body was disinfected again in a small compartment in the basement—cleaning—and then disinfected, and the two took the elevator directly to the first floor of the villa.

It looks similar to the home, with sofas, refrigerators and other furniture, all placed in their respective places according to familiar positions.

Knowing that Zhuangjiu was starving, Werther hurriedly started the kitchen to make a fire as soon as he came in.Finally relaxed, Zhuang Jiu was lying on the sofa, and when he was about to fall asleep, he heard Xingwang's voice suddenly.

Werther was working, Zhuang Jiu struggled for a while and got up to open the star network, only to find that the message was sent by an unfamiliar account.

After clicking in, found that Qian Xieyi had changed another account, and the message sent to Zhuang Jiu was urgent and anxious.

[Zhuang Zhuang!Where exactly are you now?Be careful and hide quickly, there seem to be strange people wandering in the street!〕

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Werther (throwing something off a cliff): "Bah! You #@￥%…&* parasite, #@…%￥*&"

Werther (when facing Zhuang Jiu): "Hey, sister, this thing is so scary QwQ!"

The thrilling journey (?) has passed, and the leisurely life of salted fish will start soon!

I overslept during afternoon nap... so didn't send it until 6 o'clock, sorry...
