Chapter 34 Next(1/2)
Half an hour later, in mid-air near the Envar Hills.
"It flies so slowly..." I sighed as I stood on this floating ship full of fantasy elements and looked at the ground outside the ship's side.
"Yes... it is indeed very slow, but even though it is slow, it is still the fastest means of transportation in the world." Aurora stood next to me and said, "Of course I am referring to the large-scale magic transportation.
tool."
"What are the others?"
"It's almost the same magical vehicle, but the difference is more or less in details. After all, the aerospace boat is originally a means of transportation for the elves. Whether it's our Algasburg or other forces' aerospace boats, they are all imitated by the elves.
Boat."
"Then...how many pieces does the original elf ship have?"
"Do you care about speed that much?"
"If the flying vehicle doesn't care about speed, what else can it care about??"
"Is this...for example, load capacity...flight stability...and appearance...etc.?" Aurora said with difficulty, clasping her fingers.
"Really... The load capacity is average, and the stability is pretty good... As for the appearance, I can't say anything about it, it's just that the speed is a bit slow."
"You're such a bastard..."
"Haha, don't say that, it sounds like it's true."
Aurora didn't respond, but poked my body angrily.
"Stop making trouble, it will be funny if it falls down in a while. By the way, what is the name of this ship?"
"What?"
"I mean the name of the ship."
"Oh, this ship is specially worn by the chief secretary of the library. The name of the ship is Wilhana."
"Sounds like a personal name, someone famous?"
"Well, a poet who lived more than 200 years ago and was also Hammer's favorite poet."
"Poet? It's really boring. I thought it would be a tougher name."
"There are names like this, but the name of the ship doesn't actually have any practical meaning." Avro pulled my clothes and said, "Let's go, go in, we'll be there soon."
I glanced at the construction site on the ground and nodded.
"Come right away."
I followed Aurora to the cargo area at the bottom of the floating ship. My Ford Raptor and the prepared weapons and equipment were all in the car. Since I came here today not for fighting but for a temporary and simple exploration, I
I didn’t prepare too many weapons. I still had my old partners from the early days, AK-74M and Glock 37. At the same time, after I put on the weapon accessories, I took out a backpack full of various instruments from the back seat of the car.
This backpack was prepared for me by Hex last night. I had not checked it at the time. I only opened it when I went out in the morning. It contained some small air detectors that were not very useful.
equipment, and these equipment are still starting up. It seems that Hex wants to remind us that the air down there may be a little abnormal. Anyway, just as a precaution, I still try to put the expensive-looking set inside
The air monitor moved away.
"What are these?" Aurora asked, pointing to the backpack behind me.
"Maybe it can be used as a life-saving tool."
"Really..." Aurora took out the homemade rifle from the portal and loaded it with a row of 7.62×54mm R magazines.
Of course, I provide these bullets for free. I really don’t understand how Aurora came up with a barrel that can use bullets of this caliber so early. Moreover, I have tried it several times in the forest before, and it feels pretty good.
"Aren't you going to give me a name?" I asked, looking at the rifle in her hand.
"Name? The name of the weapon?... How did it get the name on the other side of the earth?"
"There are many ways, including the name of the producer, the name of the production company, and the name of the company. Of course, it is also clearly marked with the year number or date, and there are even names given by the military themselves..."
"It sounds so complicated... Just give me a name. You are an expert."
"Well...for example, using your name, Av Model...which gun is this that you have made?"
"No. 11..."
"Well, how about Av M11?" I patted her shoulder and said.
"Can you please stop using my name? It sounds a bit shameful." Aurora said with some embarrassment.
"Then let's be more simple, Algasburg rifle, abbreviated as AR11."
"This sounds interesting... Well, let's call it AR11." Aurora loaded the rifle excitedly and planned to put the rifle back into the portal.
"I think... you can change the caliber of your next rifle."
"Why?"
I took out a spare magazine of the AK-74M, then squeezed a bullet out of it and handed it to Aurora.
"The limitations of rim bullets are too obvious. If you want to make a magazine to feed ammunition in the future, just change to rimless bullets. For example, this 5.45×39mm caliber is also very powerful. If you don't like it, you can try it.
7.62×51mm caliber bullet.”
Avrola looked at the bullet in her hand and asked: "What is the difference between rimmed bullets and rimless bullets?"
"A measure to extract cartridge cases. In the past, the bolts of some old-fashioned rifles would have extractor hooks, a design that facilitates extracting and grabbing cartridge cases. However, with the emergence and popularity of automatic weapons, people found that rim bullets
The magazine takes up too much space and is not as versatile as rimless ammunition. Moreover, with the advancement of technology, small-caliber ammunition and intermediate-power ammunition have gradually replaced these big guys..."
"Stop... I won't understand at all if you continue." Aurora stopped my explanation.
"Okay... Anyway, after I go back today, I can try the difference between these ammunition for you, so that you can come up with some new ideas for the research of the next rifle."
"Don't run away from reality. You have to go back and memorize vocabulary this afternoon." After finishing speaking, Aurora pointed at Diana who was talking to Hammer not far away.
I sighed helplessly and said, "It's really not fun for you to do this."
"Don't be discouraged. In fact, these words are easy to remember. I don't think it will take you too long."
"Kaka——"
"Buzz-"
At this moment, the float ship stopped and began to lower its altitude.
"Looks like we've arrived."
After putting on my backpack, I quickly checked the weapons on my body, and then followed Aurora and Diana to the cargo door. After a while, the aerospace ship completely stopped and turned off the magic power, and then the cargo
The door of the warehouse was also slowly opened.
A group of us followed Old Man Hammer off the Wilhana. There were currently a large number of workers busy in the open space outside. We saw them continuously pushing carts filled with soil from a large pit nearby.
Pouring in the distance, you can see how hard they worked from the surrounding piles of dirt as high as hills.
In addition, there are many soldiers standing guard outside the workers. Judging from their appearance, they don't look like Chris's personal armed forces, but more like city guards mobilized from nearby cities.
After looking around for a while, I continued to follow Hammer down the pit, and then we came to a tent at the bottom of the pit. This was a temporary working place for the library staff, and they would pick up materials from the tunnel entrance not far away.
Many masonry tiles and soil moss were returned for identification and research. Avrola said this was to determine the construction time of this mysterious tunnel as soon as possible.
The camp we entered was filled with the corpses of some humanoid monsters. I heard that they encountered many such corpses inside, and it was initially estimated that the number of monsters inside was quite large. I stood in front of what looked like a humanoid monster.
He looked at the frog's skeleton and thought that a girl about the same size as Liz was using a strange magic to examine the skeleton of the monster that Aurora had turned into a cave savage.
Although this kind of monster is called a savage, it actually has little to do with humans. The cave savages are a new group of monsters that have been gradually discovered in recent decades. They look like frogs that walk upright.
, they rely on a deep voice to communicate but they do not have any vision. They usually live in dark spaces such as underground caves, and rely on their sharp bodies and a certain degree of primitive tools to hunt. Although the cave savages appear to be
They look very different from humans, but they also have an ethnic civilization similar to the structure of primitive civilization, and some scholars in Algasburg privately believe that these monsters of unknown origin may have evolved from some of the refugees 200 years ago.
Species.
I don't agree with this view, because it took 200 years for humans to mutate like this. This would only exist in some science fiction stories.
I slowly retreated to the other side, where there was a dried goblin corpse. Although I had learned something about this little monster from Diana before, the sensory impact of listening and watching
But they are two different things. For example, right now, there is a rusty machete next to the body that looks like a 10-year-old child. It is obvious that this is the weapon used by this little monster during his lifetime. From the slight marks on the machete,
Ken could judge that this thing was not just a decoration, and besides the knife, the teeth and nails on the dried corpse also made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Dangerous little monster." This is the conclusion I came to after seeing this corpse.
I looked up at other areas in the big tent, and it seemed that the two monsters just now were not the only monsters we might encounter in the passage.
"Hey, there are big rats here too? And what kind of rat monster is this...Eve, what's that?" I patted Aurora on the shoulder and pointed to the one not far away that looked like it had some kind of mole head.
and the corpse of a monster that looked like bat wings asked.
"The bat monster... a bat-like monster... the head should look like a cave bat monster, but that thing has different habits from bats, and its teeth are highly poisonous."
"What about that one?" I asked, pointing to another strange wreckage.
"I don't know... I'll ask..." Aurora walked nearby and asked a staff member, and then came back and said to me: "That's a carrion, a very disgusting big meat insect... that
The remains are probably eaten by slime monsters, so they are so twisted. Let’s go quickly, the smell here is really not good.”
Avrola dragged me through the big tent quickly, and followed Diana in front. They entered another tent that was slightly smaller than before. What appeared in front of us at this moment was a human skeleton with only the upper body.
After Hammer came in, he pointed directly at the skeleton and talked to Diana, while Aurora also quietly told me some more critical content.
To be continued...
