Chapter 2246 Dinner Storm
It comes like a tide and recedes like a tide.
The behavior of mechanical creatures is really weird and unpredictable.
But then again, why did they leave in such a hurry?
Could it be that the old nest was taken away?
Ugh, it’s really confusing.
The sudden departure of the mechanical creature is a good result for me.
After all, if I continue to spend like this, I will almost despair - I can't keep fighting without eating, drinking or urinating.
Kailan and I, together with a group of expellers, found a relatively spacious open space in the jungle as a temporary place to camp.
After eating some snacks and taking a sip of water, I signaled the expulsor to report the situation on the other side of the island.
The Expeller roughly described the situation on the island from an objective perspective, first the scenery, then the geographical structure, then the types of creatures living in the jungle, and finally the possible location of the research institute.
After listening to the deporters' descriptions, I had a general understanding of the island.
Overall, this island is almost a desolate island, because apart from the lush vegetation, there are no signs of any living things on the island.
This is a paradise for mechanical creatures.
When I asked them if they had been attacked by mechanical creatures, the Destroyer said frankly that the uprising of mechanical creatures was probably related to them.
"Why do you say this?" I asked puzzled.
"Reporting to my lord, there is a suspicious building at the other end of the island. No mechanical creature can be found within a few hundred meters of it."
"Is there no suspicious building with mechanical creatures?" I rubbed my chin and said to myself. I raised my head and exchanged glances with Kailan. The latter nodded slightly. The meaning couldn't be clearer. This building that can be built is very It may be the ruins of the research institute.
"If it were up to you, what's the likelihood that that building is a research institute?"
I looked straight at the two everlasting light spots hidden inside the Destroyer's helmet.
"Thirty percent."
"Okay, let's take a gamble." I stood up, patted the grass clippings on my butt, waved my hand, and said, "Let's go to the other end of the island and move towards the suspicious building."
Following my order, the Ousters automatically divided into two columns, protecting Kailan and me in the middle, and strode toward the other end of the island.
Along the way, I chatted with Kailan from time to time to kill the boring schedule.
The island may not be big, but it's not small either. Its land area is probably as large as the capital of Airui City.
If you want to cross the island, you have to walk for at least half a day - and this is still under the premise of a rapid march.
If we are traveling at neither fast nor slow speed, we will probably arrive at the suspicious building tomorrow.
Although it may be delayed for one day, I don't feel it is a pity at all. On the contrary, I think that delaying one day is the most normal situation.
After all, we had participated in a big battle, and Kailan and I had exhausted a lot of energy. If we were to have another forced march, we would definitely collapse from exhaustion.
Furthermore, even though the Destroyer seems to have no damage, long-term, uninterrupted movement will not only accelerate the consumption of the magic value contained in the core, but also cause wear and tear on the strong parts.
Once the wear and tear is obvious and affects the movement, I have to find Tyrannosaurus King Bakar for after-sales maintenance.
I doubt if Bakar will agree to this request. After all, to him, the Destroyers are just a group of failed technological products. Since they can be given to me without hesitation, it is enough to prove their importance in Bakar's mind. The position is - probably slightly better than garbage.
If there is wear and tear, but I can't find a repair point, this situation is not too bad for me. In order to prevent this situation from happening early, I have to be very careful and try not to go to the expulsion place. Use it, it's not hiding, it's another kind of protection.
The sky was getting dark, and the creepy sound of metal hitting the ground was heard from deep in the jungle.
But the current location was surrounded by vegetation and was not suitable for camping, so I made a gesture and continued moving forward.
After walking for nearly a hundred meters, we finally found an open space.
We set up the tent, boiled the water, threw all the dried vegetables and dried meat into a small pot, and simmered for more than half an hour. The tangy aroma overflowed uncontrollably and got into the nostrils of Kailan and me. It irritates both of us.
"Can it be eaten?" Kailan drooled and looked at the small pot eagerly. His eyes were filled with blue light, like a hungry wolf.
Apparently, she was really hungry.
"Wait a minute." I stretched out my hand to block her hand that wanted to lift the lid of the pot, and I said calmly: "It doesn't taste the best now."
"It doesn't matter if it tastes a little bit different." Kailan sipped his saliva and said impatiently: "The main thing is that I can eat enough. I feel like I can eat a cow now!"
After a few more minutes of boredom, just when Kailan was so crazy that he wanted to chew the bark, I finally opened the lid of the pot.
The fragrant aroma enveloped Kailan and me. The emerald green vegetables and slightly dark red dried meat kept rolling up and down, like a peerless beauty, touching Kailan's heartstrings and attracting her eyes.
Gulu.
This was the sound of Kailan swallowing. She threw away the small bowl in her hand, couldn't wait to find a basin, and handed it over.
I hit the back of her hand with a spoon and scolded her with a smile: "What are you doing holding up a basin? You don't even know that the pot is not as big as it is. Even if you pour it all in, it may not be full. Besides, Can you eat such a big bowl? Hurry up and bring the bowl over, or I won’t let you eat it!”
Kailan had no choice but to throw away the basin and get his job again.
Kailan, who was starving, seemed to have lost his mind. He took just one sip of the steaming vegetable broth, but it was so hot that he squeaked loudly. However, he still couldn't bear to throw away the bowl in his hand and spit out the soup in his mouth.
I wanted to blame her, but I was moved by her embarrassed and pitiful appearance.
It was hard for this girl to have a decent meal since she was a child. It was not until she established a relationship with me and got my financial support that she finally lived a life where she could eat, drink, and enjoy all the delicacies of the mountains and seas. .
It's just that she can't get rid of some seemingly unruly habits she has developed since she was a child.
But even if everyone hates these habits, as long as I like them, that's fine. After all, these habits are not only proof of Kailan's tragic childhood, but also a symbol of her true temperament.
After the meal, Kailan touched his swollen stomach and hummed a ditty with satisfaction.
After washing the small pot, cleaning up the dishes, and putting them away one by one, I entered the tent and glanced at Kailan, who had a satisfied expression on his face. I felt a little want to laugh, but also a little helpless.
"Why are you acting like a child?"
"What's wrong with children?" Kailan retorted: "Cry if you want, laugh if you want. You don't have to worry about other people's eyes or what others say. As long as you are happy, that's enough."
Yes, as long as you are happy, that is enough.
Unknowingly, I thought of Lizzy.
