Chapter 99: Scavengers on the Second Ring Line (Part 1)
It is indeed impossible.
The diameter of the star ring is extremely astonishing. How could such a huge scene not see any shadow in the sea of debris? What is covering my eyes?
When the star ring reaches a certain height, a fairly neat horizontal "dividing line" can be seen, and the part above this line suddenly turns silvery white.
Snow line?
Lao Wang said with a confused look,
"No matter how awkward I look, I always feel like something is wrong."
Li Cang pointed to the "center" of the nine star rings and said,
"Empty."
"That's right!" Lao Wang suddenly realized, "This thing looks like the trajectory diagram of electrons orbiting the nucleus in physics class. What about the thing in the middle?"
All the star rings are rotating in the same center at a speed that is so slow that it is almost imperceptible to the naked eye. Although they are crisscrossed and cut into each other, there is no scatter in each ring, which gives people a very fantasy and unscientific feeling.
According to normal thinking, since there is such a structure similar to a star ring, there should be a gravitational center composed of mass accumulation, right?
"hetui"
"The star ring ignores the earth and ignores the output. I am still thinking about the mass of the central point. After living on an empty island for so many days, I can still magically think of the word science in my mind. It should not be mentioned whether it is size or not. a miracle”
Now is obviously not the time to care about such macro events.
Because, according to the current trajectories of the two floating islands, they will soon enter the second ring of the horizontal star ring.
It is said to be a "circular line", but actually viewed from the perspective of the floating island, this so-called "line" is almost a "wall" with a height measured in kilometers.
This is completely different from the debris sea that we passed through before. The debris there was almost all on the same plane, in a thin layer.
Lao Wang couldn't help but imagine the scene after entering the floating island, and he tried hard to come up with an "adjective" that suited the situation:
Grind.
He expressed his simple and unpretentious response plan sonorously and forcefully.
"Teacher Cang, how about we have a good meal first?!"
Li Cang suddenly had the urge to shoot this guy from the chain crossbow.
The 6 coins of the sky driving function were not in vain. Li Cang and Lao Wang quickly formulated a response plan and solemnly named it "brake".
As a last resort, Lao Wang and Li Cang would choose to evade by "manual driving".
After all, once you come into contact with the fragments that are determined by the prayer coin to meet the definition of an empty island, parking on the empty island is mandatory, regardless of whether the subordinate is willing to stay on this island and at this time.
Derailment sanctions are calculated in proportion to the derailment or parking time, and parking time currently starts at least 24 hours.
It is obviously not difficult to choose between autonomous driving and derailment or being forced to park and enter a long derailment sanction time.
"Wangshan is a dead horse."
While Lao Wang threw the long cylindrical cage into the pond, he sighed at the dark "wall" that was unknown how far ahead.
The situation was unknown, and the density and distribution of the fragments in the second loop could not be seen for the time being. He always felt uneasy.
Li Cang took a glass of water from the pond and smelled it, but there was no obvious smell.
The water in the pond was crystal clear about half a month ago, but now it is light green.
The water storage pit over there has no longer been used for drinking water after the heavy rain. After all, before the rain, the island was covered with the flesh and blood of zombies on a large scale. This kind of rain is enough to cause double psychological and physical effects on people. conflict.
The pond on Lao Wang's side is all the water source on the two islands.
Li Cang coughed and said,
"What about that? Let's save some water hyacinth first."
This thing usually gives people the impression of being overbearing and growing wildly, but it is indeed a good hand at purifying water quality. Until the number is established, it will not squeeze the living space of other aquatic animals and plants.
There are only a few trees in total, and most of the pots were made in one meal. I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand a few twists and turns.
Lao Wang said,
“Actually, this thing has a light and astringent taste, which is quite delicious.”
The seeds in the newly opened vegetable plot have not grown yet. Now the two islands combined only have a few green leafy vegetables. I can't eat anything decent, but I think even water hyacinth is delicious.
The sun's light was gradually obscured by the star ring, and the sky darkened early.
Dark yellow winds like sandstorms blew around the floating island, and the granular dust in the wind was so large that it was visible to the naked eye.
Floating Island is about to enter the second loop.
Floating debris of varying sizes began to appear all around, and the biting wind mixed with a huge amount of dust that hit the body and caused pain came from the front. The sight distance was at most a hundred meters away.
The good news is that the debris density on the second loop is much lower than imagined.
But they are all extremely large in size. Perhaps due to their geological composition, these fragments are constantly being scattered by strong winds, scattering yellow-brown dust, and soon a thin layer of dust accumulates on the island.
A few minutes later, there were large floating debris in all directions.
There are floating islands that are larger than sky islands everywhere. The diameter and height of larger ones often need to be calculated in kilometers. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are mountain peaks. This makes the two floating islands seem to be driving in a canyon with numerous cliffs and complex terrain.
"hiss"
Lao Wang looked up at the floating "mountains" above his head.
"Mom, mom, I'm starting to have a phobia of giant objects now. I always feel like they will fall down at any time and crush us into mud."
The two of them did not dare to relax at all and were ready to switch to manual driving mode at any time.
Lao Wang suddenly whistled, turned his head and looked around, and finally selected a nearly standard spherical fragment for in-depth analysis, but he was serious.
Li Laixi appeared staggeringly with a head full of fluffy messy hair and swollen red eyes.
She gave herself a headbutt and leaned on Li Cang's shoulder.
"How long have I been sleeping? Give me a glass of water."
Li Cang tilted his head, and his eyes suddenly became a little heavy.
What, save the child?
The child now also has a phobia of giant objects!
"Why are you wearing my shirt?"
"嘁~"
Li Laixi fully demonstrated what is the most basic trust between people. She tugged at the corner of her clothes nonchalantly.
"Why are you so thin? I can't even button a few buttons."
Be more conscious! Hey!
Even if you wear Lao Wang's clothes, you may not be able to button them!
But my mouth will definitely not admit defeat.
"Isn't someone's weight of 138 pounds too shocking?"
In fact, she was much thinner than the last time she met Li Cang.
Even though he is still overweight, the hardships in the building have obviously reconverted a large portion of the volume into density——
No matter how you say it, Dalei Zi has a solid foundation of family martial arts and Kung Fu that he has been practicing since he was a child. He has done all the necessary moves and basic hard work. His frame is straight and muscular, and he is heavier than the average person even if he has a similar body shape. Ten or eight pounds.
