Act 154: Fungi(1/2)

Standing on the deck, you can see the golden beach extending into the distance.

It was a vast sea of ​​sand, with puddles dotted in it.

Several scrapped cruise ships and cargo ships were docked on the beach, some of which were still intact. It seemed as if the crazy captains had their scalp heated and drove the thousand-meter-long ship into the beach, and then patted their butts and left.

Other ships were not so lucky, their shells were peeling off and the rusty skeleton of the ship was exposed.

They were like pieces of cut fish, placing there. It was like the god of scavengers descending to these giant wheels, waving the sickle in their hands, slashing and cutting these huge iron guys into pieces, and then throwing the "corpses" everywhere indifferently.

Of course, no matter where these ships are parked, shipbreakers like Neller will disguise themselves like flies, peel them up and cramp them, and then drag the removed waste to the beach, weigh them, and pack them. Wait for the bright white fleet to quickly capsize the ship to transport these things away.

"That guy is here again. I don't know what good things he has brought this time. Look at that old guy, you're so happy to talk to him." Neller said to Sloth. While he was talking, he handed over the small metal piece collected in the pipe to Sloth.

"I really never want to enter the pipe again. You don't know how scary it is. Not only are there tiny cat bones and bird hairs on the ground, but dust and animal hairs are also floating in the air. I feel like my lungs are blocked now."

Sloth didn't continue Nelle's words. She stared at Bapi and Lin in the distance with one eye and paid attention to the supervisor's movements with the other. She said.

"Don't complain. I heard that many children have come to ask for Bapi recently and want a job of destroying ships. The competition is getting more and more intense now. If you complain again, you may not be sure to hear it. You will really not be able to do it anymore. Then you will have no place to cry."

"If you don't do it, don't do it! As long as we can get those treasures, even without the favor of the God of Scavengers, we can still survive and live better."

Although the two of them were not talking loudly, Nick from the distance from the deck still heard it coming over.

He also whispered, "I really want to dig a grave? That's a tomb robber, and it's very disrespectful to the dead. If the god of scavenging blames it, what should we do?"

"That's not a real tomb robber," Neller explained, "It's just digging out the coffin and taking out the silver. You don't open the coffin at all. You have to bury it again - what's the problem? Anyway, burying those silver coffins in the ground is a waste. Why don't we change it to a bottle cap and let us live a good life.

Moreover, do you really believe that there are really gods of scavengers in this world? That is just those charlatans who deceived people. Bapi brought them to preach to the gods of scavengers, just to let us break the ships obediently."

The dazzling sunset enveloped these three thin bodies, and the breeze rich in the smell of sea salt blew slightly.

The sound of sledgehammers and iron sheets hitting each other far away. They were heavy industry. Their work was different from that of Neller entering the pipeline to collect copper wire, which was to remove the iron plate from the hull.

The sea surface, which was originally polluted by oil, became blue, and pieces of iron plates floated on the sea like palm leaves, and landed on the beach with the power of the tide.

Nico was not convinced by Neller, and he was still a little scared, "Why isn't this considered a tomb robber?"

"To be precise, blaspheming corpses is tomb robbers. We do not do such things, we do not take rings, we do not snatch gold teeth, and we do not do such things."

Neller said seriously. As if he was talking about the facts, he said it as if he really wouldn't desecrate the corpse. In fact, this was just his argument to convince Nico. If he really acted, it was not Nico who had the final say.

As the three of them said, Joel, who was farther away, came over and joined the discussion.

For this plan to get rich, they have discussed and formulated it for two months. The plan has been completed to dig the shovels needed for lighting and the luminescent bacteria needed for lighting.

Everything is ready, just take action tonight.

"How come you say that there will be silver on the coffin that you have worked hard to dig out?" Nico asked with a look back.

"Have you ever heard of the sacrifice of the God of Scavengers, describing the funeral of the old era?" Neller blamed.

"You just said that there is no god of scavenging." Nico lowered his head and retorted weakly.

Neller ignored Riniko's words and continued, "As long as we get these treasures buried underground, we can replace them with bottle caps and go all the way to the city of Angels to pursue the happy life we ​​want."

Sloth is not as negative as Nico, but she thought a lot, and she said, "Is he going to tell Bapi about the things I have dug up with that guy?"

Neller said confidently, "Don't be afraid, that guy is a runner. When the fast sailing ship came last year, I specifically asked their crew members. They said that these runners only value money. As long as they can make money, they will even put nooses that can hang people around their necks and sell them to you."

"But, is there really going to be silver?" Nico said weakly again.

"How could it be? Eibo's priest talked about more than once. He said that people in the old era had fear of death beyond our imagination. Their grand funeral costs were calculated based on bottle caps, and they all cost nearly 10,000 bottle caps."

Joel nodded in agreement and said, "Abre said personally that every coffin buried is wrapped in silver shells."

Nico retorted, "He also said that humans have walked on the moon. Do we still have to go to the moon to find human footprints?"

Neller smiled and said, "This is different. Humans are on the moon, and expensive burials are real. If you are afraid, you can not go. Then we will all become rich and set out to the city of Angels. Only you are still alone, working hard to break the ship and pick up garbage. Maybe you will grow bigger, unable to get into the pipes, and have no strength to remove the deck. You will be kicked away by Bapi and fend for yourself."

Nico calmed down. He was indeed opposed to the fear of the cemetery. However, compared to the tragic fate of destroying ships and picking up garbage throughout his life, he might be abandoned, this little fear of the cemetery is nothing.

"I'll go!" he said.

"Let's go when it's dark, remember not to let others know." Seeing that he convinced Nico, Neller immediately said that he would start to attack tonight.

"Look, they are getting together again, I don't know what they are planning." Bapi, who looked much more energetic after eating Fordning.

"Maybe nothing," Lin said, "I need a hundred liters of pure water to take a shower. Is there enough water here?"

"Enough! There are 200 bottle caps in total, so it's cheap." Bapi said.

Lin took out two hundred bottle caps from the pocket that Bapi gave him, saying, "It's really cheap."

One hundred liters of seven-level pure water require two hundred bottle caps. Bapi hired Lin to protect four children, and there were only 45 bottle caps in total.

Water in the new era is divided into nine levels according to the degree of cleanliness and the amount of radiation.

Water from level one to third level is collectively called sewage. Ordinary people will get radiation diseases after taking a sip of first level sewage. Sewage from level two and third level should be slightly better, but the degree of goodness is limited.

Water from level 4 to level 6 is called water purification. It is the kind of water that ordinary people drink for a short time and will not have any problems.

Water of level 7 to ninth grade is called pure water. It is water that has no adverse effects for a long time.

Even in the City of Angels, high-level pure water is a relatively precious existence. Those ordinary humans who are responsible for farming and transporting can drink the best water, but it is just purified water.

The reason why Bapi has so much pure water is because he found a complete and available water purification system from a giant ship.

When he got this water purification system, he was so happy that he even claimed that it was a gift from the God of Scavengers. He even gave all the shipbreakers a bottle cap as a reward, so that they could also bathe in the favor of the God of Scavengers.

Lin closed his eyes and lay in the bathtub. He could feel the rare silence in the water. He no longer had to be vigilant at all times, just like in his mother's arms.

However, he had never seen his mother. He didn't even know who his mother was. He woke up in a jar filled with green solution. There was no one else there, only him, and his name was also called by himself as he looked at the nameplate on the jar.

Close your eyes does not mean that the world is dark. You can still feel the light outside through your eyelids. Not only that, Lin can also "see" a few red dots near him.

This is the mark he gave to those children, and he can know where these children are, when to go out, and then protect them.

This is the first ability he has, which belongs to the first-order ability in the perception domain. I don’t know what it is called. I have never heard of anyone having similar abilities.

He gave it a name called Mark Prey. This ability provided great help for him to be able to come out of the jar and survive.

Almost done soaking.

Lin came out of the bathtub and put on his tactical black clothes.

If others know that he has used so much level 7 pure water just to take a bath, I'm afraid those people will be crazy.

In some places where there is a lack of safe and reliable water source, this 100 liters of water means great wealth.

Lin also thought about whether he could transport water from the wild coast to get it elsewhere to sell it.

However, after thinking about the fact that there was no decent city around the wild coast for nearly a hundred kilometers, he gave up.

The night sky is clear, and a silver-white moon hangs high in the air.

The red dots representing a few little guys began to become active after a period of silence. It seemed that they were about to take action.

It shouldn't be difficult to protect these little guys.

Lin followed them two hundred meters behind the group of little guys, while recording the surrounding terrain and confirming whether there are dangerous factors lurking.

After his careful observation, there was no other dangerous factor except seeing some mutant animals that like to move at night, people and animals are harmless and cannot call them.

"...it's here...it's excavation..." With the night wind, Lin Yan vaguely distinguished the voices of the children two hundred meters away.

Lin poked his head out to look over. His vision was switched to grayscale vision that could only see black and white in the dark.

This is a relatively popular first-order grayscale vision of the perception domain. Many people have it.

Although you can no longer see colors with this ability, it is already rare to see things clearly at night.

Through the redwood forest, Lin saw the little guys digging hard under the moonlight without any slack. At the same time, he also analyzed in his mind what these little guys were digging. He judged whether there was a danger. If so, how big is the danger, whether he could solve it himself, and whether he needed to stop them.

"...I worked harder... I dug it right away..."

“…Come on… Happiness is at your feet…”

Lin heard one encouraging sentence after another.

“…digged…”

Thirty minutes later, Lin heard an excited voice.

In grayscale vision, Lin saw the bright white box and was lifted out of the ground by them.

More than one box was found, and they dug out ten boxes from the ground one after another.

The size of these boxes is about the same size as an adult.

Are they digging a grave?

Lin figured out their purpose.

“…Is all these money outside?”

“…It should be…peel them all…”

"...Not...this is not wrapped..."

"...Is it Quanyin's coffin... Then we sent it..."

"...Don't be too excited... Let's open it and see what it looks like..."

“…Isn’t it said…not to blaspheme the corpse…”
To be continued...
