Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 659 Equipment
The strength of that hand is very strong, and every time it is clapped, it is a palm print,

I'm really going crazy, you know, that's bulletproof glass!
I stared at that hand, trembling all over. Thinking of Aba and Abiao, I felt for the first time that I was not worthy of being a soldier. How could I be so timid?How could I not even have the courage to resist?But I really didn't dare. When I thought about what would happen to Aba and Abiao after they left the car, I couldn't feel any resistance at all.

I thought, if I had to die, I'd rather commit suicide than be dragged out and eaten by this thing.

After a while, the hand retracted, and a human head appeared outside the car.

It was a human head the size of a basketball, bald and without eyeballs.

This human head is much smaller than the huge human head on the grid before. I don't understand where it came from, let alone why such a dead human head moves.After a moment, its face turned to me, and then it hit its head so hard that it made a dent in the glass.

I have a hunch that if this continues, the glass will definitely not be able to stop its attack.

"Bang, bang, bang!" It hit three times in a row, and the whole jeep was shaking. I couldn't help shrinking into the corner of the car. From this position, it couldn't see me, and I couldn't see it either. .I didn't expect this action to be useful. After hiding for a long time, it stopped hitting. After a long time, there was silence all around, and the thing seemed to be gone.

Since it was still dark, I dared not go out.When the sun came out at dawn, I had the courage to leave the car door, but when I walked to the car door and took a look, I realized that the thing hadn't left at all!
The surrounding grasslands are moving, as if there are many things drilling around inside, like big snakes crawling.Occasionally, I saw a hand emerge from the grass, grabbed a rabbit suddenly, and then retracted the hand.After a while, the hand poked out again, and at this time, there was no rabbit on it, only snow and a little bit of rabbit fur remained.

Isn't this thing not active during the day?
I remembered what A Biao said before, and I realized in my heart that maybe this 01 has completely changed.The bald man should be aware of this change, so they kept collecting samples, and then researched something that could deal with 01, preparing to annihilate it during the day.However, this plan has changed due to the disappearance of the delivery driver. Now that 01 is completely unafraid of the daytime, even if he finds that thing again, it will not help the matter.

I stared at the bloody hands, retreated back into the car, and continued to wait.

I don't know when it will leave, but right now there seems to be no other way but to wait.The passage of time every minute and every second is not an exaggeration to describe it as a year. I occasionally climbed to the car window to look at the outside environment, and I always found the traces left by those hands.

I know that it didn't go far, its huge flat body should be lying in ambush in the grass.

Soon, the torment of hunger and thirst followed. At first, I still had hope, hoping to escape, but until now, I knew that it was impossible for me to escape, and my eyes were filled with golden light. Tongue and stomach were already numb from extreme hunger and thirst.

Now I don't feel hungry or thirsty. During the day I'm still weak and can only crawl, but now I can sit up and write this partial record. I know that this is a flashback before I die, and I don't have much time. up.It's just that before I die, I'm not reconciled...why do we have to be sacrificed!
I can die on the battlefield, I can die on the front line of defending the people, but I shouldn't die in this place.

Should not!

Should not!
In the end, almost the whole film is full of these words.

Notes end here.

After everyone finished watching, they looked at each other, and finally Cyclops spoke first, saying: "Look at this word, there is so much resentment, I heard that resentful corpses are easy to turn into rice dumplings."

"Zongzi?" Dui Liu repeated in doubt, "What kind of Zongzi?"

I quickly changed the subject and said, "He probably wants to eat bacon dumplings. According to this notebook, there was a remarkable thing in this place, and that thing was a product left over from a certain civilization. , Do you think it has something to do with the ancient Shu Kingdom?"

The bald man with the hat clicked his tongue and said, "I don't know if it has anything to do with the ancient Shu Kingdom. I'm just concerned now. Is the 01 recorded in this note still in this area?" The team said: "Miss Liu, we are just an expedition team, not a death squad. If that thing is still here, we can't continue this mission." Obviously, the group of people hired by Team Liu in China should be all This bald head in a hat leads the line.

When he said this, the rest of the people also nodded, saying that it was too dangerous, and they would not go if they were going to die.

Team Liu got angry for a while, and snorted coldly: "It happened more than 30 years ago, what are you afraid of now? Besides, if that thing is really still active in this area, would those teenagers dare to come out to herd sheep?"

Ban Cun Tou touched the bearded Lazha's chin, and said: "Not necessarily, this area was originally the lair of that thing, maybe it has never been out. Didn't those young sheep shepherds set foot here? You Do you still remember the last shepherd we met, he said that winter snakes would be stepped on here, but we have been here all day and night, have you seen any traces of winter snakes?"

I immediately understood in my heart, is the so-called winter snake not a real snake, but... those hands hidden in the grass?
At this moment, everyone was in the grass at half a person's height, and the crushed snow pressed the decayed grass, making them bend their waists, otherwise they would have been even taller.We stood around the car, the weeds here were cleared by the photographer and the cyclops, so we could barely see the situation under our feet, which was a piece of wet black soil.

If we leave here, our entire lower body will be completely in the meadow, and no one knows what is hidden in the meadow.

This kind of fear of the unknown enveloped everyone's hearts in an instant.

Wearing a hat and bald head, he stared at the suicide corpse by the car, his eyes flickered a few times, and said, "Captain Liu, didn't you check the information here before you came?"

Team Liu was a little annoyed when he saw that everyone backed off temporarily, and said, "Of course I checked, I knew that I would pass the meadow, so there are waterproof boots in the equipment, but I didn't expect the meadow here to be so special. After a pause, she frowned and said, "This is my mistake. I'll give each of you an extra 3 yuan and keep going."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally wearing a hat and bald head said that they wanted to discuss it, and a group of people gathered a few meters away, whispering together.

Only me, Wen Min, Cyclops and the female doctor stayed.The female doctor is Liu Dui's friend in China. Although Wen Min and Liu Dui are not friends, they trust each other because of the introduction of their elders.The calmness of Cyclops and I made Team Liu a little strange. She said, "Why, don't you hesitate? After reading this notebook, you still dare to move forward?"

For an ordinary person, the reaction of Cyclops and I is indeed very strange. Just as I was organizing my speech, Cyclops laughed and said: "I'm afraid of the ball, we two brothers didn't come here for your labor fee , there must be a lot of treasures in the ancient Shu Kingdom, when the time comes, you will take your sky eye, and we two brothers will also pick a few things, and everyone will get what they need, so just don’t stop us." I didn’t interrupt the one-eyed dragon’s rhetoric, after all No one would risk their life simply because of a person they met not long ago.

On the contrary, Cyclops directly said that we are for the treasure of the ancient Shu Kingdom, which is more credible.

Sure enough, Team Liu felt relieved, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the drunkard's intention is not to drink." She glanced at Wen Min with a smile, and said, "Sister Minmin, in front of you, a cultural relics anti-smuggling police officer, you said that you want to steal ancient Shu. You don't care about the country's baby?"

Wen Min pretended to be confused, and said, "What did you say? What baby?" It was tacit understanding among the group, except for the female doctor who seemed to be a bit ignorant.

After a while, the group of people seemed to have discussed it, and came back and said: "We have thought about it, everyone wants to earn this money, but we can't die for the money. We have an idea, if Team Liu is willing to accept it, we will accept it." Just continue to cooperate, if you don’t want to, we will part ways.”

"What's your idea, tell me." Team Liu said.

Wearing a hat and bald head, he pointed to the notebook in my hand, and said, "We must guard against that thing. It is not afraid of guns or electricity, so we must have means to deal with it just in case. But look, What do we have? Just a few guns, I think we might as well give up this time, go back and prepare some heavy equipment, and start over."

The so-called heavy equipment naturally refers to things like explosives, grenades, and muskets. These things are not easy for people who have no way to get them. It is easy for people like Zhuanrui to get them, as long as they give money.But Team Liu is a righteous man after all. The few guns in the equipment must have taken a lot of effort, so how can he go to heavy equipment?
Team Liu frowned.

Wearing a hat and bald head, he said again: "Our brothers have been with many expeditions. There are still ways. As long as you pay for it, you can get the equipment. The general does not fight unprepared battles. Let's go in so rashly. Don't you want to make fun of your life? Think about it yourself, Miss Liu."

Team Liu thought for a moment, then asked how long it would take to get the heavy equipment, and said with a hat and bald head, "It will take at least two months, and you have to order it in advance."

I was a little surprised when I heard this. Before Zhuan Rui and others went to fight, getting equipment was just like playing. At that time, I didn’t think much of it. Now, when I compared it, I immediately knew how deep the water was for Zhuan Rui and his group. up.

Upon hearing this, Team Liu immediately refused, saying no.The reason is that it is already October, and in two months, it will already be winter, and this place will be even more difficult to enter. By then, you will be stuck in the snow, and you will not be able to pull it out. If you are in danger, you will have no time to run .

In this way, we have to wait until the beginning of spring, which lasted for more than five months. Team Liu said that he didn't have that much time.
