The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World
Chapter 32 Human Traces
Luluye is located in the southern hemisphere, and April is when autumn is in full swing.
The wind passed through the streets, blowing the fine stones all over the ground, and also blew the yellow leaves swirling all over the ground.
The fluffy grass was rolling and flying wantonly, and the dust raised blurred the light, making everything in front of him look even more desolate.
Mikael frowned, feeling like he was being watched. He raised his head and glared at the drone above his head - it must be Mi... it must be Ymer!
The three of them walked aimlessly through the neighborhood. Suddenly, Mikael stopped and looked at the shop on the right.
"What's wrong?" Ellie asked softly.
The situation inside the store was hidden under the heavy rolling shutter door, and the Honkai energy detection equipment showed no abnormalities, but when she followed Mikael's line of sight and saw the sign of the convenience store, she immediately understood.
Without saying much nonsense, Mikael tapped his toes and grabbed the roller shutter under the sign. With a slight exertion, the veins on his arm popped out. He only heard a "click", and the roller shutter and the sign were connected. A large piece of wall rustled down, revealing the convenience store behind it.
The air has been stagnant for too long. The moment the rolling shutter door was opened, a cool breeze escaped with a faint musty smell. The power supply was lost, and the store was dark. However, the wind chimes hanging beside the cashier felt the call of the wind, and the sound of the bells echoed for a while.
"Ellie, go to the back and second floor and check to see if there are any humans. Sakura, scan the shelves."
Ai Li happily accepted the order and left. Sakura was a little dazed, as if she didn't quite understand the specific meaning of "scanning the shelves". But how smart is she? Immediately he understood what Mikael meant.
Mikael himself was not idle either. He turned on the flashlight on his multi-function watch and scanned the shelves as well.
After a while, Aili came down from upstairs and said, "No humans found."
Sakura fumbled around and scanned the last row of shelves. "The food was almost gone. All that was left were daily necessities. There were rotten fruits on the shelves. All the ice cream in the freezer was melted, but the freezer was open. Someone should take it." But...and all the batteries, big and small, have been taken away."
Ellie was not slow. She immediately exclaimed: "There are really people left in the neighborhood... Calculating the time, it's almost a month. It's hard to imagine that ordinary humans can survive a month without electricity and internet. There was still a shortage of food... But how did they collect supplies? Ymer's drone found no trace of people? "
"It's very simple, they stay day and night." Mikael said: "But it's even weirder. They would rather live such a life hiding in the neighborhood, collecting supplies at night, and even risk encountering Honkai Beasts... What is it for?"
"Generally speaking, what makes humans willing to take a risk is probably that if they don't do so, they will encounter greater risks." Sakura said quietly.
Mikael was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "That makes sense."
"Buzz buzz... buzz buzz..." The noise made by the walkie-talkie was like a fly staring at a corpse, which made Aldemir feel inexplicably irritated and ironic. He deliberately wanted to smash it against the wall to let it go. It was a little more awake, but after thinking about it, there were only 8 walkie-talkies in the entire tower, and it was really reluctant to part with it.
He opened the back cover, replaced a battery, and patted it hard. The "buzzing" sound finally disappeared.
"Boss, boss! I just saw someone entering the block." Aldemir said with one hand holding a telescope and observing the street not far away, and the other hand holding a walkie-talkie.
"Zizzi..." After the brief sound of electricity, a low male voice came from the intercom, as if suppressing great pain: "Official person?"
"It looks like they are. They are wearing official multi-function watches on their wrists, and there are drones in the sky. They are just a little younger, and there is a little girl. There are minors in the official organization? But the little girl has a chest Holding a knife..."
"Hiss... what are they doing?" The man called the boss took a breath, and then continued to ask.
"What does it look like you are looking for? Let me go, boss, are you here to find us?"
"It should... hiss... no, we only have a few dozen people left. What they need is a unit of three thousand people. As long as we hide well enough, they have no reason to spend time and cost. Looking for us... Hey! You continue to monitor Baochi to see what they want to do?"
"I...I, I, I, I!"
"What's the matter, Aldemir?"
"That boy ripped off half of the wall along with the roller shutter! This must be a humanoid monster!"
"Rolling shutter? What store did they enter?"
Aldemir raised his binoculars and stared for a while, "It seems like a convenience store? Yes, it was one of the first convenience stores we scanned. In order to cover up the traces, we even pulled down the rolling shutter door!"
"Oops!"
Aldemir heard the sound of something hitting the ground on the other end of the intercom.
"Imer, raise the height of the drone and double-check whether there are humans in the neighborhood."
As I walked out of the convenience store, the feeling of being watched became even stronger.
Mikael squinted and looked at the tall buildings around him. Suddenly, a reflection flashed into his eyes, and it disappeared in an instant.
He was stunned at first, and then he was ecstatic: in the abandoned neighborhoods, polished metal and abandoned mirrors would produce reflections.
But as the First Herrscher who can analyze everything, Mikael can say with certainty that the reflection just now was a convex lens!
Someone is spying on them through binoculars!
"Imer! The building 300 meters in front of me seems to have human traces!"
"clear!"
The drone's motor suddenly exerted force and instantly flew above the position reported by Mikael.
"Squad leader, do you want to investigate layer by layer? Or monitor from high altitude?"
"Baochi conducts high-altitude surveillance and leaves the investigation and arrests to us!"
"Understood... Captain, someone has appeared on the top floor!" Yimer was excited for a moment and accidentally touched the joystick. The drone immediately rolled to one side. When he finally controlled the aircraft, he only saw a man wearing a red T-shirt. The figure in a T-shirt climbed up to the crane on the roof as nimbly as an ape and flew on the hollow boom.
Although he was just a bystander, Yimer already had his heart in his throat. Although the crane arm was long and thick, it was tens of meters high in the air!
With every step, the crane arm would tremble. If he missed a step, he would be doomed. However, the figure showed no intention of slowing down and even ran at the speed of a hundred-meter sprint.
The crane arm connected the two buildings, but it was not a perfect connection. The end of the crane arm was more than two meters away from the building. But Aldemir jumped up suddenly when he sprinted to the end, successfully jumped over the gap and entered the other side. one building.
"Squad leader, the other party has rushed to another building!"
"So fast!"
Mikael couldn't help but clicked his tongue. He quickly gave up his plan to enter the building and turned into the avenue on the side.
"Ymer, continue to follow the other party and provide me with directions."
"Wait, Mikael!" Himihu suddenly connected to the communication, "It's dark!"
The silhouette of the setting sun had long since fallen into the horizon.
And now, the last trace of light and shadow has dissipated in the world.
"Retreat first. Ymer will continue tracking using the thermal imaging on the drone. We should be able to find the opponent's hiding place."
Mikael exhaled, feeling a little unwilling.
He looked back at Ellie and Sakura, who still had plenty of energy.
"Is it to carry out the order? Or to find the hiding place of the human beings regardless of all costs?"
Mikael was hesitating.
Just at this moment, a gust of cold wind blew by, and more and more footsteps and roars sounded in my ears.
"Has Honkaimon started to move... Damn it!"
"retreat!"
This feeling of not being able to use up your energy and being cautious all the time for fear of exposing your abilities is really uncomfortable!
