Chapter 1085 Biologist, the Gears of Fate Begin to Turn!

Boom!

Boom!

Thunder and lightning flashed in the dark sky, and raindrops fell from high above, hitting the dry soil and splashing some small pits.

A slightly cold wind blew from afar, bringing a hint of winter cold to the empty land.

According to the solar terms of the wasteland and the arrangement of the game, January is the last solar term of autumn.

In February, it is the beginning of winter.

Under the long-awaited rainstorm, the temperature began to drop gradually.

Squatting in a temporary crenel on the wall of the Pumpkin Bunker, several guards tightened their clothes by the burning fire, looking forward with a sullen face.

Indistinctly, the sky above Sunny Harbor seemed to be shrouded in a black shadow, which was so thick that it was scary.

In the distance, countless black clouds were gathering, and it was unknown how much rain would be brewing.

In the temporary camp of the Allied Forces.

There were already flashing figures, checking whether there were any debris piled up in the drain.

"Huh, it's really cold."

The old guard shuddered, and immediately the other new guards nodded.

There was no way. Qinggang City was located on the edge of the tropics on Blue Star, and the coldest time of the year was only about 10 degrees.

The temperature under normal circumstances basically hovered between 25 and 32 degrees.

And now the winter of the wasteland has just arrived, and the temperature at night has dropped to the edge of zero degrees.

Coupled with the increasing humidity, it was as uncomfortable as a steel knife scraping the bone.

Boom.

Suddenly, another dull sound broke out, mixed with some vibrations.

If it were usual, this sound might make the guards alert instantly.

But now the thunder was rumbling, and the guards on the city wall didn't care, but retracted their heads.

Some residents in the bunker who had not fallen asleep in the bunker also tightened their quilts to resist the cold.

No one noticed that the ground in the southeast of the bunker collapsed at this time.

From the collapsed place.

Catalina crawled out in a panic, her whole body soaked by the rain.

Although she had read the escape tutorial many times, she was still in danger after the explosion.

Fortunately, everything was as planned.

Feeling the cold wind blowing across her face and the cold rain under her body.

Catalina greedily sucked the smell of soil that was completely absent underground, and suddenly felt like she was back in the world.

During the days she stayed in the shelter, the loneliness had increased several times from the beginning, which was simply crazy.

Now, as long as she could return to the academy alive.

Even if she died in the laboratory or on the operating table, she would be willing.

Of course, before that, Catalina shuddered and did not forget the reward she needed to pay.

She carefully glanced at the surrounding blocks and dodged into the alley.

An inconspicuous residential building.

The door was pushed open from the outside.

Seeing Katharina, who was wet and covered in mud, come in, Feng Long, who was still warming himself by the fire, couldn't help but be a little stunned.

"Didn't you come out from under this house?"

"Something happened. The exit here collapsed when it was detonated for the first time."

I was embarrassed to say that I lied about a false location to prevent accidents.

Katharina was embarrassed, but she hurriedly said, "Let's go. I'm worried that someone will find out if we stay any longer."

"Okay, we have prepared the airship. You should change your raincoat before leaving."

As an enclave in hand, Katharina still underestimated the alliance's infiltration ability.

In fact, Feng Long in the house had received the news as early as when the ground collapsed.

Now when she came over, the airship was already ready in the backyard.

Soon.

After changing into a raincoat, accompanied by Feng Long, the motor airship took off from the backyard.

"Hold on to me, the weather is a bit bad today."

"Okay."

Go to the territory of a strange ally and become an employee of the other party from then on.

Although she didn't feel anything underground, she felt a little flustered after coming out.

Just like this dark rainy night.

The falling raindrops were her mood, sometimes dense, sometimes flying.

Boom!

A flash of lightning cut through the night sky, reflecting the airship flying out of the bunker.

The guards standing on the city wall were not surprised, but stood up spontaneously and watched the airship go away.

Maybe even if they knew it was her on the airship, they would not come to rescue her, right?

Catalina turned her head and took a look with a confused heart, and finally put all her thoughts in her heart.

She knew.

From now on, her stopped life will set sail again.

Maybe it will sail to the sea of ​​stars and explore a new world.

Maybe it will sail to the endless abyss and be swallowed by darkness if she is not careful.

But what she didn't know was that many years later when she recalled this cold rainy night again.

Only one sentence always lingered in her mind.

It was from this moment that the gears of fate finally began to turn!

February 1, Year 2 of Wasteland, Doomsday Calendar.

Three o'clock in the night.

As the excitement of escaping death passed, the fatigue of traveling on a rainy night gradually surged up.

Even though the airship had been designed for high-speed cruising, the temperature was still cold enough to make people stiff.

But as the dazzling warm yellow light penetrated through the gaps in her eyes, Catalina, who was cold and hungry and huddled behind the airship, frowned.

Just opened her mouth.

"Ugh! Cough cough cough"

A large gust of cold wind mixed with raindrops poured into her mouth, irritating her to retching continuously.

Fortunately, I didn't eat anything when I left the shelter yesterday, otherwise I might have had to spit it out in the air now.

"Well, we're here."

Feng Long slowed down, controlled the airship with one hand, and picked up the communicator with the other hand to start communication.

"Food has been prepared below, as well as ginger soup to ward off the cold."

"are you OK?"

"It's not bad!" Catalina's lips had been frozen purple, and her entire face was extremely pale.

But when she heard about the food and ginger soup, she couldn't help but swallow.

I have heard Nat say many times that the food in the Alliance is very delicious, and it is not inferior to the food in the Holy City.

Catalina didn't believe it at first, but after more times, she became more expectant.

Right now, as the airship landed in a camp that was obviously not yet completed.

As soon as it came to a stop, the surrounding guards rushed over.

"Thank you for your hard work. It's not easy at night."

Lu Zhou was wearing a raincoat and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming his identity again.

"It's okay. Apart from the cold spots, you don't have to worry about enemy sneak attacks in this environment."

After completing the handover procedures, Feng Long himself breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he was quite cold after driving for two hours in this horrible weather.

Being able to hold on to the warning wall is already a strong will, but continuing to the Hope Village will definitely not be able to hold on.

Although the various scheduled disasters in the wasteland are very scary, this sudden change of weather may also cause small disasters.

For example, if the players who are landing in the New World are hit by the rain, they may catch colds and fevers.

Moreover, these people do not have medicine and ginger soup to dispel cold. If the rain continues for a few more days, I am afraid there will be heavy casualties!

At this time, a group of people were talking, and a group of people came towards the camp.

They saw Somo holding a black umbrella and walking towards them, surrounded by several guards.

Seeing the lord, Feng Long's eyes lit up and he quickly stood up straight and walked up.

"Lord, Catalina has been brought!"

"Thank you for your hard work, let's go and rest."

Patting Feng Long on the shoulder, Su Mo nodded with a smile, and his eyes fell through the gap on the woman behind who was looking at the nearby woman curiously.

It is a little different from what is seen on the screen. Although Catalina is already over a hundred years old, her figure is like that of a young girl. There are almost no wrinkles on her face, and she is very well-maintained.

In a sense, his compliment for the first time really wasn't an offense.

On the other side, as Somo appeared, Catalina also secretly looked at the man who had appeared on the screen many times.

Well.

He is indeed handsome, except that he is a little darker, and he is more handsome than those male models in the Holy City who are kept by noble ladies.

And compared to the male model, the manager of the Tianyuan Refuge has a very obvious and profound majesty.

She judged this when she looked at the respectful eyes of the guards around her.

As the master of thousands of slaves, she knew very well the difference between flattery and true respect.

Only true strength can make people spontaneously show this kind of gaze.

"How does it feel, to be free again, to be back on the ground breathing fresh air?"

Just when Katarina was trying to determine more information, Sumo had already walked closer and whispered softly.

"It's not bad. It would be better if it wasn't so cold."

"Then you have to get used to it quickly. It will definitely get colder and colder in the next few months."

Sumo laughed.

"Don't be so nervous, we are different from the humans on Blue Star."

As he spoke, he stopped his joking expression and stretched out his right hand from under his black raincoat.

"Let me introduce you again. My name is Sumo. I am the lord of Tianyuan Territory and the manager of Tianyuan Sanctuary. You can call me by my name directly without being so specific."

Looking at the big calloused hands in front of her, Catalina was stunned for a moment, and then stretched out her hands to hold them together in surprise.

Rough touch, with a little body temperature.

At the moment of contact, a clear sense of power came from the palm prints.

Isn't this manager engaged in scientific research? Why does he look more like a well-trained warrior?

However, while feeling doubtful, she did not forget to introduce herself again.

"Katrina, a second-level researcher in the college, belongs to the discipline of biogenetics. She has won three Genetic Progress Awards. She is good at biological sciences and has done some research on medicine, but she doesn't have much practical experience."

"medicine?"

After hearing Catalina's self-introduction, Sumo's eyes suddenly lit up.

"So, have you read the body modification information I sent you before?"

"Of course I did."

Catalina smiled.

"The underground is so boring. Not only those materials, but I also took the time to read all the expansion materials you distributed to me. It's very strong. The person who designed this transformation concept must be an out-and-out genius. I dare Guaranteed, if she is in the academy, she will definitely become a full professor."

"Especially in the direction of transforming mechanical bodies with different attributes for disabled people, our previous idea was to use separate designs to minimize the occurrence of rejection. But this data uses a gene fusion method to create something unique for each person. If it can really succeed as an independent mechanical body, it would be incredible.”

As soon as she talked about her area of ​​expertise, Catalina suddenly became energetic, and the fatigue from traveling disappeared.

Seeing that she was going to continue talking, Su Mo coughed lightly when he noticed the strange looks from the guards around her.

"We can talk about this tomorrow. You are tired from traveling tonight, so you should have a late-night snack and rest."

"Tomorrow, tomorrow I will introduce you to the person who invented this technology, and you can have a good exchange then."

"Really? The person who invented this technology turned out to be yours?"

Catalina was stunned, and then an irrepressible joy surged on her face.

Speaking of which, this is also one of the main reasons why she was willing to come out of the underground shelter.

The information sent by Su Mo was like opening up a new world for her, and her mind was full of ideas.

Especially every night when she lay down, the inspiration that came to her was like a gift from heaven, and it was endless.

She originally guessed that this information was just Su Mo's good luck.

But she never thought that the person who invented this technology was in this Tianyuan territory?

"Otherwise, Blue Star doesn't have this kind of technology for ordinary people." Su Mo answered in a gentle tone.

This is the truth.

Blue Star's scientific research in the direction of biological transformation is not slow.

On the contrary, if you can afford the expensive fees, even disabled people can achieve the regeneration of broken limbs through the culture dish.

But for the transformation research of ordinary people, because there is no demand and no market, it is basically a matter of asking for help.

"You are right, Blue Star's technology is only for the upper class."

Catalina nodded thoughtfully, and then said excitedly and nonchalantly: "I heard that the food here is comparable to the Holy City. Is it true? I am almost calloused by Nat's ears every day!"

"Haha, then you have to try it to know."

Pointing to the kitchen, Su Mo seemed to have seen the chef apprentices who were looking forward to it.

In their eyes, Catalina is like a large experience baby.

As long as she can get a satisfactory nod, the added experience may bring a big surprise.

As for whether Catalina will be picky?

Su Mo is not worried, because the powerful route talent has been proved more than once.

Wonderful tastes must be shared by all humans!

After a moment.

Looking at the empty plates on the table, Su Mo's eyes widened.

Even though he had guessed that Katarina, who had been trapped underground for half a year, would eat ordinary food with great sweetness.

But he still didn't expect that this guy could eat so much.

"Hehe, I have a regular injection of active potion, so you don't have to worry about me eating too much."

"Woo woo, this..."

"This is called fried dumplings." The cook standing next to him, 'Xiao Caibi', reminded hurriedly.

"Fried dumplings, so delicious!"

Huh.

The moment the voice fell, in the game panel that Katarina couldn't see, the experience bar actually soared by nearly 50%.

The cook next to him, who was still nervously holding his apron, instantly relaxed and showed a satisfied smile.

Perhaps it was to prevent players from brushing experience against their will.

Compared with the meager experience provided by those people in the territory, the aborigines who suddenly appeared gave too much.

Of course, Xiao Caibi didn't know that.

There are only a few people with the same status as Katarina in the whole city.

According to the algorithm of the game, the status of the researchers in the academy is much higher than that of the managers of the shelter in Qinggang City.

In the whole city, I am afraid that only Hades can be on par with them!
