Chapter 759 Dead Lake (Nine)
After walking around the ruins of the town for most of the time, Cassia returned on the same route. On the edge of the open space, Cassia sorted out a small area to accommodate among the collapsed houses as a temporary resting place. Then she returned to the merchandise, and he moved everything over and found a dry place to pile it together.
It was only about 5:00 pm, and the sky was getting dark, but it would take about two hours to wait until it was completely dark. Cassia took the musket and moved along the edge of the town.
The plants became more and more lush, and there were weeds on the ground, which quickly covered Cassia's knees. Soon, the air around him became colder, and the mountains covered by thin clouds had a sense of oppression. Several clear rivers appeared in the green woods on the hillside. In front, the calm light blue lake maintained its annual silence, and printed all the not-so-beautiful clouds in the sky.
The touch on the skin became much stronger. After opening the cross pupil, Cassia obviously felt that the things hitting the exposed skin were more lively.
The area of the lake became larger after such a long time through the infusion of snow water. The water was extremely cool, and you could see the submerged stone roads and some low buildings at the edge of the lake. There were many aquatic plants, and a group of huge birds returning to the nest flew across the lake. On their hanging claws, Cassia saw fish covered with silver scales.
It was not a dead lake, which not only contained lush aquatic plants, but also abundant fish. Under the flooded buildings, Cassia was sure that she saw flocks of fish swimming.
"The information is biased? But it is more likely that when the strange disease spreads here, a very small number of species survived and completed their own resistance evolution. Just like those snakes and birds, they survived, and such a small-scale ecological circle was formed in decades."
Cut a sharp wooden stick, Cassia carefully inserted a fish as an experiment.
It seems that fish at the lowest end of the food chain make a living by eating water plants. The scales seem to have become more tougher, and the strength of the body swings also makes Cassia amazing. Its power is so great that when these fish were alarmed by Cassia, the shadows that flee in the water were like sharp swords stabbed out.
And Cassia found several rows of sharp teeth in its mouth, which could barely cut its skin under test. Although it was a herbivorous carp, the blood in its body still made Cassia shed a layer of skin. The idea of eating fish at night was forced to give up halfway.
"Everything here carries bacteria?" Cassia looked at the lake in front of her and the continuous mountains behind the lake, and for a moment she didn't know where she should start. Grote only told him a place name, and the place where the Holy Sword was placed was on the highest mountain there.
"In a cave, it is a bit hidden, but it is still easy to be discovered as long as you search carefully. After entering, you should be able to see some symbols engraved in the cave, and those are signposts. Following it, you won't get lost in the cave. After all, there is a cumbersome cave network. In order to prevent other people who accidentally break in, I still spent some time on it." Grote said this at that time.
After the volcano erupted here, Cassia still didn't know if the cave networks were affected. However, the number of explorations was a bit large and he would stay here for a long time.
Using solid fuel and picked up wood, Cassia continued to look at the notes, trying to get more information from it. The light darkened unconsciously, but Cassia, surrounded by the flames, did not notice this. She baked the diary again, and near the limit, Cassia opened a few pages of blurred paper.
"I found twenty-six diamonds today, which are of high quality. After processing, I guess I can sell more than one million sanctuary coins. The team leader heard from him that some team members were sick, seemed to have a cold, had weak body, had mild allergic symptoms, and were slightly red. I will come back to the town to rest for a few days,,,"
"The fossils of the organism were found in the condensed lava. After the carving was dug, it was initially determined that it was the ribs of some kind of huge paleontology. It was about four meters long, and the guns we carried could not leave traces on them. They were very hard. The boss thought it was very valuable and decided to move them back and carve them into artworks and sell them."
These are diaries written by the team looking for minerals not long after coming here. From this, it can be seen that the disease did not spread very quickly, and those who showed symptoms in advance were also people with weak constitutions. And those who stayed in the town for a long time were relatively safe. The address of the diary that the surveyor wrote this diary said that most of the people who did not enter the mountains were finally "infected".
Cassia was more interested in the huge bone, but she was not surprised. Such fossils of bone would be buried underground in any location. Before seeing the real object, he could not tell whether it was a dragon bone or a larger second-class creature.
Cassia carefully closed the diary, put it aside and murmured to himself: "By the way, according to the old people, these people have never gone out after they came here, and most of them have died here. Not only has a car gone back, but they are also people holding a cart. It seems that the minerals found by these people did not appear in their words?"
"Where will it be hidden?" Cassia raised her head at this time, stunned for a moment, and a hazy green glow appeared in the fire in her pupils.
I don’t know when night came, a layer of mist evaporated from the lake, covering the calm water, emitting a dim green light.
There is also a certain material existence above the lake, and the light there is very dim, but Cassia can see clearly that it is indeed the same as what is written in the diary. Under the sky covered with clouds, the dark colorful light is like the water grass slowly floating in the water, rippling in the air.
Cassia stood up and left the range where the fire was stretched out, only to realize that she had really entered a strange world.
"Are these bacteria?" He couldn't understand the reason for this phenomenon. In the cross pupils after opening, the lake water also had an extremely dim green. The dense forest on the hillside, and behind him, all the objects here seemed to be coated with more or less fluorescent powder. The dim light made the place no longer have substantial darkness.
Deep in the hillside woods, the rivers formed by snow water become obvious, and they are brighter, as if they are light belts that penetrate this area, connecting the top of the mountain covered by clouds with the lake at the foot of the mountain.
