Chapter 517 Hydrogen Energy
Fearing that the noise would attract Alpha, the players did not ride the Edge Vehicle or use high mobility skills, and instead ran on foot for several kilometers before finally breathing a sigh of relief.

"The spirit lingers on the altar, never to be forgotten."

Wanli Fengdao lowered his voice and complained, "What kind of grudge is this that led to you chasing me all the way here?"

"They may not have any grudge against us; they might simply want to kill us and acquire our player qualifications."

Li Sheng said in a low voice, took out a quadcopter fiber optic drone, wrapped its body with electromagnetic shielding cloth, and launched it into the air.

Fiber optic drones use fiber optic cables as the signal transmission medium, effectively resisting electromagnetic interference. Because fiber optics are light and thin, some fiber optic warfare drones can even achieve a range of 30 to 40 kilometers, and they are also very inexpensive to manufacture.

Capable of carrying several kilograms of bombs, enduring electromagnetic interference zones, and precisely destroying high-value targets on the battlefield.
The literal meaning is "The swallows that once graced the halls of noble families now fly into the homes of ordinary people."

In short, the drone flew high into the air, overlooking the distant valley. Large areas of exposed rock were scorched black, but the Alpha Python was nowhere to be seen.

Players watching this scene on their controller screens exchanged bewildered glances. Reyes took a deep breath. "Something's not right. The mechanical python is so big, it can't possibly hide in the valley, and the area of ​​the burn marks is too small."

"It's not just about the area,"

Rabbit Ranger Mianyue frowned in a human-like manner and said, "The shape and color of the burn marks are also wrong."

Granite, with its complex composition, cracks and flakes off due to the different coefficients of thermal expansion of its various minerals. Basalt, on the other hand, melts and breaks apart.

The overall destructive effect is far stronger than that of modern artillery, but it is not even in the same league as the destructive power of a single beam that flattened a mountain in the Land of Dreams.

"Plasma can be divided into low-temperature plasma and high-temperature plasma according to temperature. The former has a temperature between 1,000 and 10,000 Kelvin and is widely used in mold processing, welding, hazardous waste treatment and semiconductor industry."

The latter, with temperatures reaching millions or tens of millions of Kelvin, is commonly found at the center of the sun and thermonuclear fusion reactors.

Li Sheng pondered and said, "Just like the curse of knowledge, the characteristics of extraordinary power are also difficult to disguise."

There are two possibilities: First, the Alpha Python was significantly weakened by the Dreamland.

Second, he wasn't feeling well today; he drank too much alcohol, worked too much overtime, and took his medication too early.

Wanli Fengdao squinted and complained, "The first possibility is one thing, but what does the second one, taking the medicine too early, mean? Is this some excuse for middle-aged couples experiencing sexual dissatisfaction and feeling powerless?"

"Judging from your tone, you seem to know a lot."

Li Sheng squinted and retorted, taking out several large boxes of medicine from the automated warehouse. "Want to get some supplies from me? Zinc tablets, Andean maca, and compound Xuanju capsules."

"Your storage is really useful. You can pull out the corresponding gadget anytime, anywhere. Like Doraemon?"

Wanli Fengdao's eye twitched, and he waved his hand, saying, "No need for medicine. My married life is very harmonious. My wife is a catgirl, not... uh."

Brother Xiaodao originally wanted to talk about rabbit girls. Cats have their mating season twice a year, in spring and autumn, and each mating lasts three to seven days, while rabbits have it all year round.

But then he thought again, Rabbit Ranger was also a rabbit, so he decided to stop.

Mianyue, with her keen sense of smell, squinted and said, "Are you two thinking about something impolite?"

"How could that be? Hahaha."

"Stop joking, hahaha."

Li Shengxue fooled Xiao Dao Ge, then took out a fiber optic drone, launched it into the air, and placed the controller on the ground.

Both machines are set to hover mode, each monitoring a large area, with enough power to last for three hours. If Alpha is detected, they can immediately send a notification. They can also function as radio stations, continuously communicating with Gray Rain.

"Even though Alpha has been weakened by the Dreamland, the ability to spew out ultra-large-scale low-temperature plasma streams of thousands or tens of thousands of degrees Celsius without any cost or cooldown is still equivalent to that of a top-tier superhuman. We still need to be careful to avoid it."

As they spoke, the group arrived at the outskirts of the town, which was pitch black and devoid of light.

The town's houses are somewhat like those in European and American towns in the 1930s, with both high-rise reinforced concrete buildings and low-rise brick houses.

The roads are mostly paved with asphalt and stone bricks, and many severely rusted vehicles are parked along them, ranging in style from a Ford Model T similar to those of the early 20th century, to the 1915 Ford Boxster, and then to the classic 1933 Volkswagen Beetle. They are highly similar to early human vehicles.

What's even more similar is that there are clearly visible shops, hardware stores, bookstores, and even cinemas along the streets.

Unfortunately, the characters on it were all jagged and irregular, and I couldn't understand them at all.

"WTF"

Even Wanli Fengdao, who prided himself on being knowledgeable and experienced, was scratching his head in disbelief. "There shouldn't be any centenarians among us humans, right?"
Mushroom King, you come from another world, which means this place can only be an astronaut's dream.

But it's a native species; could a killing field really foster such an environment?

"The spirit world is vast and full of wonders."

Rabbit Ranger Mianyue said with a tense expression, "In our history of exploring the spirit world, we have also discovered a shapeshifting monster species that does not have the ability to raise offspring. Instead, it replaces its offspring with those of other intelligent, native species from the killing field."

Let others raise your offspring.

She walked into a bookstore, pulled a book from a dusty shelf, and as soon as she opened it, old scraps of paper fell to the ground.

Wanli Fengdao raised an eyebrow and said, "Isn't that a cuckoo?"

The mushroom king's face, marked by the lines representing eyes, revealed a puzzled expression. "What is a cuckoo?"

Wanli Fengdao said, "Uh, a kind of bird."

Mianyue said calmly, "There aren't many wild birds left in our world. All forests, farmlands, timber, and crops must be prioritized for the war against the Abyss Legion."

Claudia couldn't help but ask, "Huh? So what do you usually eat?"

"Earthworm powder, mealworm protein blocks, microalgae, mushrooms, potatoes. On holidays and before wars, we could eat bread, synthetic meat, and seafood."

Mianyue spoke calmly, which made the humans present feel inexplicably awkward.

The war in the other world is a brutal and bloody battle between the forces of order and chaos, from which no intelligent being can escape.

Compared to this, Earth's environment couldn't be more prosperous, abundant, and peaceful.

At this point, it's impossible to say things like whether a weight-loss meal should be eaten before or after a meal, or whether to choose Youlemei or Xiangpiaopiao protein powder.

Fortunately, the centipede broke the silence, "Um, these rusty vehicles don't seem to have exhaust pipes?"

"It really is."

Claudia strode forward. The absence of an exhaust pipe meant it most likely didn't use fossil fuels. She lifted the hood, and all the knowledgeable players took several steps back in unison. "Wow, a hydrogen fuel cell car!"
