Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

"In 1080, at that time Ursus suddenly announced that they had developed a new type of weapon based on the 'gun' used by the Sakota people. Although it was bulkier than the Lateran's gun, it also had a shorter range."

"But the penetrating power of this weapon is much stronger than that of the Lateran."

More than ten years have passed, and Adele still has a fresh memory of that time.

Suddenly possessing such a powerful new weapon, with the personality of the Ursas, it will definitely set off a new round of war against neighboring countries. Prepare for the war that takes place.

But in the end it turned out to be just a flashy weapon.

Maybe it's because there was not enough funding in the research and development process. This kind of imitation has fatal flaws. It can be used as a weapon for the police, but it is not qualified to be used in the army.

However, Ursas also managed to frighten the surrounding countries and bought them a period of peaceful development for a few years. At that time, the new emperor had just succeeded to the throne, and everyone thought that he would be the same as the previous emperor. The war eliminated domestic turmoil, and no one could have guessed that the new emperor was actually a pacifist that Ursus had once seen in a millennium.

Finding something like this means it wasn't completely abandoned 30 years ago, as marked on the map.

"That is to say, at least 14 years ago, was there still someone secretly using this place..."

The time difference of 16 years... I'm afraid it's more than that. With the addition of these miserable corpses, the answer is already coming out. These Ursus people must be doing some dangerous research here.

Then something happened and they had to abandon the place.

"Really..." Li Ang let out a sigh of relief, "Can't make people feel safe for a while..."

Is this the treatment of the protagonists in the novel?No matter where you go, you will be in trouble. If possible, Li Ang also wants to live a life of eating and waiting to die...

It's a pity that Li Ang knew very well in his heart, ever since he knew that he was the 'apostle' of Origin Stone's will, the word "peace" almost had nothing to do with him.

This is also one of the important reasons that prompted him to embark on this path, because he always felt that what happened to the Nauman family was likely to be inseparable from the 'Eternal Life'.

The immortal is the enemy of his agent.

"How is it? Did you see anything?" Li Ang asked.

When Li Ang and Adele speculated about the use time of the fortress, Magellan had already carefully moved to the side of the pile of corpses, carefully observing the condition of those corpses.

Because Li Ang can't see things, Adele is also very likely to be able to autopsy such a remote skill. This kind of thing can only be done by Magellan, who is an adventurer.

Magellan also lived up to expectations. In order to deal with various accidents encountered during the expedition, she did master a lot of messy skills.

After observing for a while, Magellan said with some uncertainty, "These people... seem to have been frozen to death?"

"Frozen to death?" Li Ang frowned and asked, "Are you sure?"

This is the interior of a military fortress, with a thick mountain as a barrier. Even if all the heating equipment in the fortress stops operating, it will not be as cold as the outside world.

The temperature here should be about minus 25 degrees now, and it will only be higher after the blizzard stops. Most people only need to wear one or two pieces of clothing to resist this level of cold, not to mention the Ursus soldiers who live in this environment all year round. .

It is almost impossible for the Doussian soldiers to freeze to death here at the same time.

"Don't worry, let me take a look again." Magellan replied.

She walked around the pile of corpses a few times, and even dared to touch the corpses on it. After repeated observations, she said with great certainty, "There is nothing wrong. Although I don't know why, these people really He was frozen to death here."

"... Where's the evidence?"

"Of course there is evidence."

Magellan controlled the drone, focused the light on one of the bodies, and said, "I didn't find any visible trauma on these people's bodies, and you look at these people, their clothes are a bit too thin. This is an abnormal undressing phenomenon that occurs when people are exposed to low temperature for a long time."

"Their skin exposed to the outside of the clothes is also purple-red, which is also the most prominent feature of frostbite. These two points alone can determine the cause of their death."

"The reason why they died here is that their posture...is still so strange," Magellan considered his words, and continued, "It should be that when they sensed something was wrong and wanted to leave here, they found that the door of the control room was closed anyway. They can't be opened."

As he spoke, Magellan carefully stepped over the corpses, and pushed hard at the door in front of the control room.

The door remained motionless.

"Unable to leave this fortress, these people should want to lean together to warm each other, so their death has become so strange."

As he spoke, Magellan's voice also weakened.

If her speculation just now is correct, what kind of power actually froze these Ursus soldiers to death here?

Magellan couldn't help shivering, it seemed that the surrounding cold had penetrated through the protective clothing on her body and directly soaked into the bone marrow of her body.

How did these people... die?

The three looked at the pile of corpses in front of them silently, no one spoke, and the surroundings were dead silent.

After a long time, Li Ang broke the silent atmosphere.

"Adele, is there something wrong with what she just said?"

Cancer of Immortality: Chapter 31 Ice

"I don't really understand the details, but the appearance of these people... is no different from what Miss Magellan said." Adele replied.

Is this not trusting her judgment?

After hearing Li Ang's question, Magellan's mood was a little complicated.

Magellan also knew that they got together temporarily for various complicated reasons, and it was not easy to win each other's trust.

But... There's no need for her to lie about this kind of thing, right?Would it be of any benefit to her to conceal the cause of death of these people?

Li Ang sensed the emotion in Magellan's heart in time, and in order to avoid deepening the misunderstanding, he explained, "Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't believe your judgment."

"It's just... my eyes can't actually see anything. I use a special way to observe the surrounding situation. The things I see in this way are very different from the world in the eyes of ordinary people, so I I can't see the features on those corpses, so Adele must confirm the situation on my behalf."

It's not that I don't believe her judgment...

Magellan complained in her heart, but after putting it another way, she did feel a lot more comfortable in her heart.

After listening to Li Ang's explanation, some doubts in Magellan's mind were also answered. No wonder the other party walked so fast in the dark, no wonder it was the first time here, but he was already familiar with the terrain here.

At this time, Magellan suddenly heard the angry roar of Li Ang not long ago.

At that time, Magellan thought it was Li Ang's angry words, but he didn't expect that he really didn't lie. In a sense, Li Ang was really 'blind', which somewhat embarrassed Magellan.

But at this moment, Li Ang didn't care about the messy thoughts in Magellan's mind at all. His attention had passed over the corpses and placed them on the control room behind them.

"Okay, let's find a way to open this door and let the outside cars come in first," Li Ang said, "I'm worried that if we leave it outside for a while, the car's engine will be damaged by the snowstorm."

If that was the case, they would have to hike to Sami...that would be a real disaster.

Avoiding the corpse on the ground, Li Ang also tried to push the door of the control room.

There seemed to be something attached to the back of the door, which completely stuck the whole door. Li Ang tried a lot of strength, but couldn't push the door open.

Faced with this situation, no matter how many tricks Magellan knew, it would be of no avail. The door in front of him could only be opened by confrontation. These dead Ursus soldiers fell down on this point.

"Get out of the way, I'll open this door."

After Adele and Magellan backed away for a distance, Li Ang took out the dagger, attached the evil light to the sword and condensed it so as to enhance the power of the next cut.

I saw a few hazy iridescent lights flashing in the darkness, together with the substance attached to the door, the door of the control room silently shattered into several pieces and fell to the ground.

After dispelling the light from the dagger, Li Ang said, "Okay, you can go in now."

Following Li Ang into the control room, Adele casually glanced at the fragments of the gates on the ground, but when she saw clearly the substance behind the gates, she couldn't help but exclaimed.

"ice?!"

Yes, about two inches of ice covered the back of the door. It was because of this layer of ice that they couldn't open the door of the control room smoothly.

There is no trace of anyone in the entire control room, and all the equipment is covered with a thin layer of frost. Even after 30 years, the energy supply of these equipment is still normal.

Li Ang just pulled down the main switch, and after the light bulbs above their heads flickered twice, they emitted a somewhat dim light.

The entire military fortress is like a monster that has been sleeping for countless years, finally awakened by Li Ang from the long hibernation. With the activation of various instruments and equipment in the base one by one, the world in Li Ang's perception suddenly becomes colorful up.

This military fortress looks like it has just been built, and there are no problems.

"So, these people were blocked outside the control room by a door, and finally froze to death outside?" Li Ang felt a little inconceivable.

If the energy system of this fortress was destroyed, then these people's deaths could be forgiven, but in this situation...

The layer of ice behind the door that Adele just discovered also cast a veil of mystery over the deaths of those Ursus soldiers... shit.

"Someone killed them." Li Ang said with great certainty.

If he still can't come to a conclusion with so many clues, it would be in vain for him to watch so many episodes of Conan.

"After so many years, the murderer should have left, right?"

Hearing what Li Ang said, Adele immediately looked around nervously, as if the unknown murderer would jump out of the corner at any time and give the three of them a hard blow.

"Who knows, maybe the murderer has been hiding in this place for 30 years." Li Ang said lightly, "If the murderer is still in this fortress, he already knows we are here."

The news of restarting the fortress cannot be concealed from the people inside the fortress.

Of course, if the murderer had no problem with his mind, he wouldn't have been hiding in such a ghostly place for more than ten years.

Hearing Li Ang say that the murderer might still be here, Adele shrank her neck in fear, but she soon realized that Li Ang was deliberately scaring her just now.

Adele stood on tiptoe and tapped on Li Ang's helmet angrily, "Don't scare me on purpose! I really thought the murderer was still here just now!"

"How could someone stay here for more than ten years!"

"Indeed, the murderer is likely to have left, but... all these inferences are based on the fact that the murderer is a 'human being'."

"What if the murderer is not human?"

It was as if a gust of cold wind had blown into the control room. Both Adele and Magellan didn't know what to say. They had just dealt with alien species not long ago. Nothing is more convincing than this up.

So, were monsters really killing these people?That monster still stays in this fortress and hasn't left?

Such doubts arose in the hearts of both of them.

Seeing that both of them reacted like this, Li Ang also knew that it's not a good thing to joke too much when it's time to accept it.

"Okay, I'm just joking, how can monsters be encountered so easily?"

"I've searched almost the entire fort just now, and within the range of my perception, there are no living creatures."

Of course, it is only a 'living' creature.

Cancer of Immortality: Chapter 32 Supplies

After the power supply of the entire fortress is restored, it is very simple to open the main entrance of the fortress.

Li Ang just pressed a few buttons, and opened the door that was strong enough to resist an army's attack.

However, during this process, neither Adele nor Magellan said a word to Li Ang. It seemed that the joke he made just now made them a little angry.

Well...Actually, Adele got angry and pulled Magellan to ignore Li Ang.

The relationship between the two girls quickly became acquainted because of this incident.

What can Li Ang say?After all, this was the trouble he caused himself, so he could only run out in despair alone, and drive the snowmobile parked at the gate into the inside of the fortress.

Finally, they temporarily settled down in a room that looked like a utility room not far from the control room.

When they thought of a pile of unexplained dead bodies not far away, they felt a little shivering in their hearts, but they didn't come here for vacation after all, so there was no need to take the possible risks to go deep into this fortress.

Of course, searching for supplies is another matter.

After going back and forth like this, Adele's anger had almost dissipated, and Li Ang discussed the next plan with them.

There are two main tasks.

One was to overhaul the snowmobile, and the three of them were capable of doing this job, so Li Ang handed over this relatively simple job to Adele and Magellan, and he handled another more dangerous job by himself.

Go explore the stronghold for anything they can use.

The murderer is still hiding in this fortress and has not left... What Li Ang said just now was not entirely a joke.

Although he has already checked the entire fortress, there are no other living creatures except the three of them, but with the lessons learned from the alien species, Li Ang cannot fully guarantee that there are no creatures here that can hide from his perception.

The xenomorph can perfectly integrate its own existence into the blizzard, and there may be other creatures that can do similar things.

Judging from the current stage, Li Ang's perception still has many flaws. Maybe when Li Ang can do the same thing as entering the will of the origin stone, his perception will reach a perfect level.

But Li Ang had no clue about how to increase the strength of his soul.

Body functions can be strengthened through continuous training. Now Li Ang's body is much stronger than when he just woke up, but the soul... how to exercise this invisible and intangible thing?

Until now, Li Ang couldn't think of a feasible solution.

Li Ang suspected that there were uncertain risks hidden in this fortress, so he didn't let Adele and Magellan explore the fortress, especially Magellan.

Magellan was worried about Li Ang being alone, and coincidentally, Li Ang was also worried about her.

He had already seen through Magellan's performance in the past two days, and saw through her restless nature in disguise. Now it's just because of a sudden drastic change, he dared not act recklessly in an unfamiliar environment. This situation can't last for too long time.
