Escape From the Library

【Deep Starry Sky-10】

The escape capsule fell rapidly in the universe, and the target destination was the planet α-176 set in advance by Jiang Pingce.

Yue Xingwen sat in the escape pod, looking out the window through the transparent protective cover——

Although the direction and speed of the 12 escape pods are the same when they pop up, there are sandstorms and magnetic fields nearby, and the escape pods will inevitably deviate at a certain angle during the flight.In the end, even if everyone successfully lands, they may not necessarily be able to land in the same area.

The channel of the research group is disabled, and other students cannot be contacted.The escape pod, which was originally clear in the field of vision, gradually turned into a dozen black spots, blending into the cosmic starry sky, completely invisible.

The stars flickering outside the porthole, in the vast starry sky, the tiny escape pod is like a solitary insignificant ant, abandoned by the whole world.

Time passed very slowly, Yue Xingwen kept staring at the pointer on the bracelet.

Until an hour later, the escape pod was suddenly attracted by a strong force, and it fell rapidly——

Yue Xingwen hurriedly grasped his seat belt and pressed down on the breathing mask to prevent the oxygen tube from falling off.

After falling rapidly for a few minutes, there was a loud "boom" in his ears. The violent vibration made Yue Xingwen almost vomit. I landed on a strange planet, surrounded by dusty and strangely shaped reddish-brown rocks, which looked like balls of flames from a distance.

There was not a single animal to be seen nearby, and no trace of vegetation.

The scorched earth is everywhere, and the surface of this planet is exactly the same as the picture in the data - it is the planet α-176 closest to the sandstorm.

It appears that the escape pod made a successful landing.This made Yue Xingwen heave a sigh of relief.

A prompt pops up on the smart screen: "It is detected that the outside temperature is 40 degrees Celsius and the oxygen content is 0. The oxygen cylinder in the escape cabin is 80% full and can be used for 12 hours."

Yue Xingwen hesitated for a moment, and decided to leave the escape pod to find his teammates.

At that time, he and Jiang Pingce's escape pod were the last to pop out, and the other teammates should have landed before the two.But there is no teammate in the 100-meter field of vision, so there is only one possibility-everyone is scattered everywhere when they land.Must meet up immediately.

Yue Xingwen opened the hatch of the escape cabin from the inside, and got out with the oxygen cylinder on his back.

The high temperature of 40 degrees made him sweat instantly.In August, the hottest summer in the south, it can occasionally reach 8 degrees, which is actually bearable.What makes people uncomfortable is that the outside air is extremely dry, and the surface temperature is much higher than the air temperature. When your feet touch the ground, it's like walking on hot coals.

As soon as Yue Xingwen's feet touched the ground, he heard the sound of smoke coming from his shoes.The ground of this planet is not suitable for walking on feet at all.If he continued walking without finding his teammates, his feet would probably be roasted.

Yue Xingwen evaluated the surrounding environment, took out the "Selected Works of Classical Works of Modern Writers" without hesitation, and read quickly: "There is no road in the world. If there are many people walking, it will become a road."

Mr. Lu Xun's skills can forcibly create a path in any environment.

Yue Xingwen is very grateful for this skill. The road he created is no different from ordinary roads in the city. Walking on it is extremely comfortable.He quickly walked along the road, and the road created by the skills after reaching the full level was also continuously extending forward in the direction of Yue Xingwen.

Yue Xingwen thought that if Pince encountered such an environment, it would be easy to handle. He could directly write a formula and fly in the air with sinusoidal motion, so that his feet would not be burned by the hot rocks on the ground.

If other students cannot withstand the high temperature on the surface, it is best to return to the escape cabin and wait.As long as you find Ke Shaobin, you can lock the coordinates of your teammates through Xiaotu's investigation.

At the same time, Liu Zhaoqing climbed out of the escape pod, looked at the surrounding environment, and cursed loudly: "Fuck! Is this the Flame Mountain?"

His feet were so burned that he couldn't stand up, so he immediately summoned two rolls of gauze with his right hand to wrap them on the shoes. Anyway, he couldn't run out of gauze, so if he burnt a roll and wrapped it again, it would last until he joined his teammates. when.

Liu Zhaoqing walked forward quickly while cursing, and before he walked very far, he saw a few familiar figures in front of him, jumping around like a cat whose foot had been stepped on sorely.

Liu Zhaoqing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved towards the distance: "Xu Yishen!"

Xu Yishen didn't have gauze to bind his feet, but he had a split body. When the body was burned unbearably, he immediately split into a new one. Moving forward in such continuous splits, the movements were of course not good-looking. In Liu Zhaoqing's view, it was like several Grasshoppers are jumping around.

Xu Yishen also saw Senior Brother Liu not far away, his originally frowning brows quickly relaxed, and Mitosis teleported to Liu Zhaoqing's side.Seeing that his brother's feet were wrapped in gauze, he narrowed his eyes and said bluntly: "Can you walk? Please take me for a ride!"

After finishing speaking, he threw the oxygen cylinder to Liu Zhaoqing, and then turned into a cell and climbed onto Liu Zhaoqing's shoulder.

A familiar voice came to my ears: "There are many ways of cellular respiration. I have now enabled the 'anaerobic respiration' mode, which has a relatively low production capacity but can preserve energy. Brother, please bring me the oxygen cylinder first."

Liu Zhaoqing said helplessly, "Okay."

Anyway, it was not the first time that Xu Yishen served as a "mount" for classmate Xu Yishen. The weight of Xu Yishen who has become a cell is negligible, and it is not a burden for Liu Zhaoqing at all.On the contrary, if Xu Yishen followed him in human form, it would be troublesome for him to keep changing the gauze to bind Xu Yishen's feet.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhaoqing joked, "Hold on firmly, it's none of my business to fall and get burnt."

"Then it's safer for me to stay in your pocket." Xu Yishen rolled into Liu Zhaoqing's coat pocket and said, "Which direction should we go?"

Liu Zhaoqing looked around: "There is no reference here, and we can't tell the difference between east, west, and north. Let's go ahead and see. Before I landed just now, I seemed to see an escape pod landing in that direction."

After Ke Shaobin climbed out of the escape pod, he immediately activated Xiaotu, asked Xiaotu to turn on the scouting mode, and used the "Find Friends" skill to find teammates within range.

The surrounding temperature was very high. After standing on the ground for a while, he felt his feet were hot, and he couldn't stand up at all, but Xiaotu did not have any abnormalities.It seems that Xiaotu's special metal material can withstand high temperatures.

With an idea, Ke Shaobin simply jumped up, straddled Xiaotu's neck with his legs apart, patted Xiaotu's head and said, "You carry me forward."

Xiaotu: "Master, you should shout again: drive!"

Ke Shaobin: "..."

This talking "smart mount" is very easy to use, and Ke Shaobin suddenly opened up a new way of thinking.

Xiaotu is 1.6 meters tall, and the rollers under his feet are also very flexible. His movement speed is almost comparable to that of a 60-horsepower car.Walking on a small map is not only fast, time-saving and labor-saving, but also has a very wide field of vision!

Ke Shaobin rode Xiaotu all the way to investigate, and soon, a small blue dot appeared on the screen: "Found the coordinates of teammates within 500 meters nearby."

Ke Shaobin's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked Xiaotu to walk towards the coordinates.Within a few seconds, he saw an escape pod not far ahead, the hatch just opened, and a tall boy got out of the escape pod.The two looked at each other from a distance, followed by a familiar indifferent voice: "You use the robot as a mount?"

"The rocks on the ground are too hot to walk on." Ke Shaobin pushed his glasses and looked at Xin Yan: "How much do you weigh? The two of us are sitting on Xiaotu's shoulders, should we be able to sit?"

"No, I have another way."

I saw Xin Yan took out a "Periodic Table of Elements", quickly selected a few times with his right hand, and then, a silver metal powder appeared in his palm, he quickly turned the powder into a thin layer, bent down The body was fixed on the sole of the shoe, and then he stood on the red rock with a calm expression.

Ke Shaobin finally came to his senses: "Are you a high-temperature-resistant metal?"

Xin Yan explained in a low voice: "There are many metal elements that can withstand high temperatures. I just used 'tungsten'. This chemical element is very stable and has a melting point of more than 400 degrees. High temperatures of tens of degrees are not a problem for it."

The metal that can only be melted at more than 400 degrees is inlaid on the sole of the shoe, which is equivalent to coating the shoe with a metal protective film, and the feet will of course not be affected by the high temperature.

Ke Shaobin couldn't help giving a thumbs up: "Your "Periodic Table of Elements" is really easy to use, and you can find any element you want! Later, you can make a pair of high-temperature-resistant metal soles for everyone, so that , we can walk on the hot rock face as if on the ground."

Xin Yan nodded and said, "Hurry up and find other students. When the oxygen tank is exhausted, human beings can't survive for a minute on this planet."

Ke Shaobin also realized the seriousness of the problem, and quickly let Xiaotu continue to investigate.

After a while, Xiaotu found three more coordinates, two of which were together and one in the opposite direction.The two people who were together were relatively close to here, and Ke Shaobin asked Xin Yan to meet them, while he rode Xiaotu and slid towards the lonely coordinate at a faster speed.

After half a minute, Ke Shaobin saw a person appearing in his vision.

There was red magma everywhere, like a sea of ​​fire, but the road under the man's feet was a wide and flat asphalt road.As he walked forward, the road under his feet also continued to move forward.

It is really "there is no road on the planet, but Yue Xingwen has blazed a road."

Yue Xingwen was overjoyed when he saw Ke Shaobin riding Xiaotu, and the two met quickly.Before Ke Shaobin had time to speak, Yue Xingwen asked first, "Did you see any other teammates?"

Ke Shaobin replied: "I just met Xin Yan. There are still 2 coordinates over there, so I asked Xin Yan to find them. At present, including you, only 5 people have been found nearby."

Yue Xingwen looked at the time on the wristband and said, "According to the time calculation, everyone should have landed, and the others may be in other areas." He paused, and said decisively: "It's 8:8 in the morning. We must find all our teammates before [-] o'clock tonight! Let's go, hurry up and do a carpet search."
