Chapter 36 Three-phase bombs build radiation hell
The reverse bending of the knees allows the fugitive to reach a faster speed, even comparable to that of a galloping horse.
It's just that although his speed is fast, he does not have the endurance of a horse and cannot maintain high speed for a long time.
Soon, he was overtaken by a pursuer from behind. He swung his sword and slashed across the back of the kneeler, who immediately fell down in the desert.
The two pursuers reined in their horses and ran towards the kneeling one with great joy. It was obvious that the other person had something important on him.
Just when the pursuers were approaching the fugitive's body, the corpse suddenly turned around, with two short knives in its hands. It bent its knees and suddenly shot up, stabbing the two pursuers into the chests!
The pursuer didn't expect that the opponent would fight back, so he immediately let out several screams, clutched his chest and fell down, losing his voice.
The man who bent his knees staggered towards the two horses, but before he could reach them, he fell to the ground and made no sound.
There was blood pouring from his back.
Shen Feng hid on the top floor of the ruins of the building and observed with a telescope for a while to make sure that no one else appeared. The three people had indeed been lying in the hot desert for a long time without moving. Then he walked out of the ruins of the ruined town and walked towards the three people. Run quickly.
Soon, he had arrived at the scene of a fierce battle.
The sand soaked with blood has turned brown, and the three strangers are too dead to die.
And their appearance made Shen Feng frown.
The fugitive looked normal, but the two dead pursuers were much stranger.
He was hunched over, showing an obvious spinal deformity, and there was a huge tumor on his shoulder, like a second head.
The other hand turned out to be like a foot, with a long furry tail trailing behind it.
These three people all had congenital mutations due to radiation.
The clothes on their bodies looked tattered, as if they were woven together with a lot of rags and broken plastic.
Shen Feng searched the bodies of the two pursuers and found only a small bag with a dozen bottle caps and a bottle of green water in a broken plastic bottle.
The man who bent his knees also had only three or four bottle caps on his body, and the other thing was something familiar to Shen Feng.
A small plastic bottle that has turned yellow. Inside is five small pills that have expired for an unknown number of years. Half of them have turned into powder. From the faint traces of PPA on it, it can be seen that it seems to be Piperic acid used to treat diarrhea. piece.
Could it be that this little medicine bottle was what made them fight each other?
Shen Feng put away the small medicine bottle and walked towards the two horses.
Only then did he realize that the two horses were also different from the horses in his impression.
One of the horses had an eye-like slit on its forehead, with an underdeveloped eyeball growing inside!
The other horse had a shrunken leg hanging from its belly, and half of its body was hairless, which looked very scary.
Apparently these two horses are also products of radiation.
Fortunately, the Geiger counter did not beep.
Shen Feng took the two horses, got on them, and headed in the direction the three of them came from.
Fortunately, I learned to ride a horse during the apocalypse of stone statues, otherwise it would have been troublesome.
With these two horses, the speed is much faster.
The key is, with these two horses, it means that we are not far out of this desert!
Otherwise, without fodder, the horse would not be able to come to such a place.
Sure enough, after riding forward for almost an hour, I was finally able to see some sparse trees from a distance, and they were trees that looked relatively normal in shape, completely different from the twisted trees in the nuclear blast zone.
There are not only trees but also sparse wormwood growing in clumps on the ground.
The two horses also became much more excited, quickly left the desert, and began to eat grass.
Shen Feng climbed up a tree seven or eight meters high and looked into the distance.
What disappointed him was that there were no traces of human activity as far as he could see.
It is still wilderness, with sparse trees and sparse wormwood.
At this moment, a piece of silver light flashed through, and Shen Feng's eyes lit up. There was a small river not far ahead!
He immediately got on his horse and headed towards the river.
Soon he had arrived at the river. The water was so clear that it seemed to be a tributary of a river in the distance, gurgling by.
Shen Feng's expression darkened.
This river is so clean...
There are no aquatic animals inside, not even a few aquatic plants.
The shrubs and wormwood on the surrounding river banks were extremely distorted, and even made Shen Feng feel a kind of madness.
The two horses refused to come this way.
Moreover, there are some beautiful colored light spots at the bottom of the river, like glass fragments.
Shen Feng took out the Geiger counter and inserted it into the water. The buzzer immediately sounded an alarm and the number on the screen changed to 425.
Sure enough, this is a river of radiation.
The upper reaches of the river should flow through a strong radiation area.
Shen Feng mounted his horse again, rode away from here, and continued walking forward.
This time, just half an hour after walking out, the buzzer of the Geiger counter immediately sounded. The further forward, the louder the sound, and the vegetation became sparser.
Obviously, there is another high-intensity radiation area ahead.
Without any hesitation, Shen Feng immediately changed direction and headed south.
But after walking all day, at night, there was still no trace of human beings!
It was as if the three people he met were already the last of humanity!
During this period, he even saw a town that was completely destroyed by a nuclear bomb from a distance, and even used his telescope to see the black shadows of humans that were vaporized on the walls when the nuclear bomb exploded.
At night, he found a dilapidated building wreckage as a temporary shelter. Shen Feng had a good sleep and continued on his way the next day.
For the next three full days, he did not encounter any towns where humans lived.
Along the way, the sound of the Geiger counter sounded from time to time, reminding him that a certain direction was about to enter the radiation zone.
He kept changing his direction and moved along the gaps in various radiation areas. The further he walked, the heavier his mood became.
I originally thought that there were relatively few high-intensity radiation areas, but now it seems that there are only a few areas that are not exposed to radiation.
The density of the nuclear explosion zone is really too high!
And judging from the Geiger counter detection values, they are all three-phase bombs wrapped with a layer of uranium-238 shell on the thermonuclear shell!
The so-called three-phase bomb, to put it simply, an atomic bomb is wrapped with a layer of thermonuclear material, which is a hydrogen bomb, and a hydrogen bomb is wrapped with a layer of depleted uranium material, which is a three-phase bomb!
Once a three-phase bomb explodes, it will produce high-intensity radiation pollution over a large area and for a long time.
Basically, the strategic nuclear weapons of all major nuclear powers are three-phase bombs, which can be said to be the most lethal nuclear weapons.
After walking for five days, Shen Feng still saw no trace of human activity, and half of the food he carried had been eaten.
Fortunately, he came across an extremely deep motor-driven well that allowed him to replenish the source of clean water. Otherwise, he might have died of thirst before finding any humans.
Finally, on the fifth day, the Geiger counter had not sounded an alarm for two days, and it seemed that he had arrived at a clean land.
Moreover, he even saw a lizard climbing rapidly on the ground.
At night, when darkness fell, Shen Feng suddenly discovered that a fire appeared in the distance.
Someone!
He immediately led the horse and hurried over, and heard a loud conversation in the distance. It was obvious that the other party was very happy.
Five people were sitting around a bonfire, building a simple grill. Next to it, on a long piece of wood, there was a large pile of food they were about to grill.
one person.
