Him and their stars.

Chapter 812 Returning empty-handed
Summers was right.The group of them also left the factory area and entered the field. Soon they found the scratches left by the pulley rolling over the mud, and they chased after them by car.

The vehicle is the Iron Knight off-road vehicle prepared in advance by Mr. Engineer, one of the top off-road vehicles produced by the Alliance Propulsion Group. It has air cushion and gliding functions, and can even fly short distances.

The following week was a tracking battle spanning hundreds of miles.We chased all the way from Shuangfeng Town to the foot of Mount Qililuo. On the way, we also encountered attacks by sandmen and horse bandits and hungry herds.Of course, there was also a brief encounter with a larger Shamin group.

It was a sand group of more than [-] people, some of them had "horses", guns and a lot of heavy weapons, and everyone looked very capable.Of course, the chariots and cannons are gone.After the Battle of Turon, the Community Guard conducted a half-year sweep of the entire planet, confiscating nearly a hundred "unknown" heavy artillery and armored vehicles.Since then, the heaviest weapons in the hands of the Shamin tribe are phaser cannons and rockets carried on their shoulders.

However, placed on the wilderness south of the Kiliro Mountains, this is already considered a very effective team.It may even pose a certain threat to Shuangfeng Town.

After the Battle of Turon, most of the sand people who were unwilling to obey the community could only obediently obey, but a considerable number of tribes still fled to the wilderness and continued to resist rebelliously.Of course, over the past few years, these proud "names of freedom" have indeed gradually become bandits and caravans, which can be regarded as a very sad thing.

Obviously, the part they encountered was one of them.After discovering the "alone" off-road vehicle, it rushed up like a hyena seeing an isolated antelope.

Kelvin felt that if the entire refugee convoy was like the last Tulon war, although there were many people with cars and guns, the entire team, old and young, lacked clothing and food and would be frightened. The Shamin army must be in danger.

However, neither the ranger nor Mr. Summers the engineer, nor even the lady reporter, are all ordinary people.Summers drove the car and easily dodged several shelling attacks from the other side, while Yaxiu picked up a Gatling from the back seat of the car, and sprayed angry blue fire at the sandman cavalry who rushed over.

The firepower of the blue fire Gatling is naturally very fierce, and Yaxiu, even while maintaining the density of firepower, managed to shoot the barrage like a rifle.

Look at the lady reporter again, she looked unarmed, but she took out a folded rifle from nowhere.She was lying on the back seat of the constantly moving vehicle, her hands, feet and posture were very stable.She didn't shoot the Sandman cavalry rushing over, but the gunners farther away who were operating phasers and bazookas.Almost every time she fired, a Sandman gunner fell to the ground on the spot.When a magazine is finished, there will be no more enemies to show up.

As for the cavalry, they also fled after leaving behind more than [-] corpses of people and pack animals.

I know now, all of you have unique skills!Kelvin sat in the back seat with his own gun and didn't fire a single shot. He could only watch his companions' divine operations, feeling that the gap between mortals and superhumans was greater than that of mortals and dogs.

"The movements of these Sand People are not normal." Miss Moen said: "As far as I know, after the Battle of Tulong, the community's security control here is much stricter than before. A Sand People group with more than [-] people in the wild Anyone who flees for more than [-] hours will definitely bring in the guards."

"Probably because of the invasion of looters, most of the earth's army is shrinking towards Turon." Ashura said casually.

Kelvin was a little worried about the safety of Shuangfeng Town, but Summers reassured him that the sand people had been beaten and disabled, and they would never dare to attack Shuangfeng Town.You know, it is one of the largest towns in the wilderness south of Mount Kiliro, with a permanent population of less than [-] people. Almost all young and middle-aged people are armed with guns, and there is also a self-defense system.

In short, everyone escaped without any risk. After a brief repair, they found the direction of the robot through the electromagnetic signal residue when it moved, but it was heading towards the distant mountain.

"The appearance of the Hengduan Mountain Range is indeed abnormal." The reporter said.

"There are so many abnormalities." Ashura laughed.

Summers said, "Indeed, the south of the mountain is a desert with sparse vegetation. Only the oases on the river basins are suitable for civilization to multiply. Ten all hit there. However, both sides of the mountains are vast plains, and there is no natural change in elevation."

"There is indeed something in that mountain." Taina Moen pondered for a moment: "I heard that during the Battle of Turon, Colonel Yu Lian also found the remains of the Enlightened One in that mountain?"

Hearing the name of the savior, Kelvin immediately became interested.He didn't notice that although Ashura next to him didn't turn his head, his ears were obviously raised.

Summers didn't respond. He just smiled and said, "I'm just a civilian. How can I know about senior officers? What's more, I'm a big shot like Colonel Yu Lian."

The lady reporter seemed to agree with the other party's explanation, so she didn't speak any more.

Everyone continued on the road. Although there were many twists and turns in the process, they finally followed the traces left by the escaped robot and found hidden canyons and caves in the south of the mountain. The underground space is unknown.

Kelvin asked himself, although he was a fan of treasure hunting adventure films and one of Professor Jones' fans, but when it was his turn, he would never go inside such a dark and bottomless cave.

However, his little friends all walked in one after another without even the slightest hesitation.

Fortunately, apart from encountering two poisonous snakes and a fire rock lizard the size of a calf in the cave, there is no other danger.

They found the completely scrapped security robot at the bottom of the cave. As for the group of nanomachines that "possessed" it, they had naturally disappeared without a trace.Needless to say, if those nanomachines really existed, they would have probably drilled into the strange wall at the end of the cave.

Of course, he, Kelvin, an ordinary cowboy, after going through this adventure experience that would not show his timidity even in the big movie "League of the Lost Treasures", has the opportunity to stand here and eat bread, which is really something he never imagined out of the way.

While he was nibbling on the bread in the self-heating dry food, Yaxiu said to the other two: "How about it, two professors, should you have seen enough? Let me say that it's not time yet, right?"

"The ancient scriptures I saw last time said that the period of red mist is the time of opening. As far as I know, Xinyumen only has red mist during this period. This is the desert climate and the red color of Mount Kiriro The mirage phenomenon formed by the mountains cannot be seen in other places."

"That's very interesting. In fact, I have a similar saying here." Ya Xiu said with a smile: "I have also heard the emerald stage, the purple curtain, and the fanatical symphony. Similar to this kind of riddle, every year Tens of thousands of them have been dug up from ruins all over the world. And it is not sure whether the interpretation is correct."

The reporter lady nodded, a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

It was Summers who thought for a while, but then said: "Where did you hear these riddles from Mr. Ash?"

Yaxiu looked at Miss Reporter, saw that the other party nodded insignificantly, and said with a smile: "Of course the senior who gave me the puzzle. He is an archaeologist at Hongshan University and a veteran hunter of relics! But he is not famous. I didn’t make much money and I was probably bewildered by my own messy research. I was still talking about these things before I died.”

"Your adoptive father is very well-known in the outside world." Miss Moen said, "His experience is one of the main sources of materials for Professor Jones!"

"Really, really?" Mr. Kelvin was taken aback.

"Of course it's fake. There are thousands of sources for Professor Jones' material." Ashura said angrily.

The reporter turned her head noncommittally, and said to Summers: "I have indeed received such news that Colonel Yu Lian found a relic of an enlightened person here. Well, it's just that later, the community military The original site was re-explored, but found nothing."

"You are well informed," Summers said.

"Then where did your news come from?"

Summers seemed to answer the question out of place: "We are quite special. As well-informed as you are, you should probably have the answer."

The lady reporter looked directly into each other's eyes, looked at each other for a few seconds, and then nodded.

Kelvin was growing restless.Although he is just a cowboy born in an ordinary family and cannot understand the riddles of these people, he often watches and plays "League of the Lost Treasure" and "Mysterious Starry Sky", but he also knows that these are the decryption of ancient ruins process, and also vaguely involved some more secret information.

As an ordinary person who entered the scene indiscriminately, is it really okay to just listen to it casually?Wouldn't it just be silenced like this?
He didn't notice that Yaxiu had already moved a few steps to the side, as if he wanted to get away from here and was ready to run away at any time.

Summers reached out and tapped the wall lightly, listened to the sound, and finally shook his head
The reporter lady has already taken out the high-definition shooting equipment, and while taking pictures of the wall and all the surrounding environment, she said: "Our information is still insufficient, and it may also be that some unknown conditions are needed to activate the ruins here.".

"In any case, we have at least determined the location here, and it's not nothing. So, can we slip away? I always have a very ominous premonition."

The reporter pretended not to hear, and continued to operate the two shooting drones floating in the air, scanning all the details of the scene. By this time, she was not like a well-trained reporter, but more like a trained reporter. Well-trained forensic police officers are investigating the scene of the case.

As for Mr. Summers, he kept taking out various equipment from his backpack and tirelessly installed them around the cave.

Kelvin was dazzled by the sight, not knowing what was going on.He suspected that Mr. Engineer's backpack might be four-dimensional, and there might be a factory hidden in it.

"These devices will transmit signals to us [-] hours a day. And collect all the environmental information here. The oxygen content and air content here, the types and divisions of microorganisms, the changes in humidity and temperature, and even more Subtle changes in energy radiation are all useful information. It will be very helpful for our next exploration."

"Is it possible to find out how this thing works in this way?" Yaxiu patted the wall.

"You can try it anyway. It doesn't cost money anyway." The engineer smiled and explained to Kelvin: "Also, if this relic disappears like last time, we can at least leave some clues."

Kelvin said with a wry smile, even if you explain it, I still can't understand it.Still, he was grateful that Mr. Summers was willing to explain this to his illiterate self.

After completing these tasks, the group of four returned the same way, and finally found the Iron Knight off-road vehicle that was still intact outside the cave.However, when they drove out of the canyon, Mr. Summers first received an urgent communication from his colleagues in the Engineers' Guild.

"The predator's battleship has arrived at Xinyumen?"

"It's not a battleship, according to the Garrison Command, it's just an armed transport ship, without the ability to orbital bombing. It's just that they also issued an evacuation notice and opened the city shield. And all citizens who can't get to Tulong are required to arrive as soon as possible Take refuge in the nearest town." The communication on the opposite side said: "Where are you now?"

Here, Ash has opened the map and clicked on a place in Mount Kiriro: "We are here now, and we are rushing from the Ash Dew Valley Tunnel to Tulong. The distance is about 800 kilometers. If there is no accident, Be there in twelve hours."

Kelvin hurriedly said, "Then, what about Shuangfeng Town?"

Yaxiu glanced at the other party: "Shuangfeng Town is less than 300 kilometers away from here... However, the road is not safe."

Indeed, since more than [-]% of the residents of Xinyumen live on this fairly fertile plain between the mountains to the north and the inland sea, the garrison command naturally gathered most of its troops here, and the life The sand people groups and city-states in this area are also relatively more submissive.

However, if it is in the wilderness in the south of the mountain, it is another matter.The area close to the town is considered safe, and 100 kilometers outside the city is an absolute lawless place.

The wild animals and sand gangs you encountered along the way can already explain a lot of problems.

"But..." Kelvin opened his mouth slightly.He was worried about his pregnant wife and daughter, the uncle Wang on the farm, and his colleagues and friends in the factory.However, he had no reason to let the three of them accompany him on the adventure.

At this time, Summers said: "I am not at ease about the safety of Twin Peaks Town. So, let's divide into two groups. Miss Moen and Mr. Fashbitt, take my car and return to Tulong as soon as possible. Call for reinforcements. Kelvin and I head back to Twin Peaks."

Seeing that everyone was silent, he smiled and said: "You all know my skills. It is not a problem to meet a few wild beasts, or a gang of one or two hundred desert people."

"But, transportation..."

Ash just opened his mouth.Summers had already jumped out of the car, pulled out a bunch of parts from the trunk in the back seat, dazzled for a while and performed splicing and reorganization operations like a magic trick, and then insisted on putting together a two-seater hoverbike.

"No matter how I say it, I'm still an engineer. Isn't it reasonable to carry two vehicles with me?"

Miss Tyna Moon took a deep look at the other party, but said straightforwardly: "Then do as you wish!"
