Steel Steam and Flame

Chapter 14: sound

   Cassia had no time to measure. When he woke up, he found that he was no longer lying on the metal table in the laboratory. Around him is now a piece of scorched earth swept by flames. The extremely high temperature of the flame has turned all the gravel on the ground into glass-like glazed objects. Only the foundation and charred tree stumps covered by black ash on the ground can show that this place was once There have been traces of human habitation.

   The wind is still blowing around, cool but without losing its warmth, and occasionally a soft and delicate rain floats in the air.

   It is clearly the spring climate, but there is no trace of life throbbing on the surrounding black ground. Even the most tenacious seeds of vitality were completely turned into ashes under the sweep of the flames, and then they were taken by the wind.

   He didn't know where it was, so he could only go a long way in one direction with his head stuffed. The surrounding pitch-black scorched earth was disappearing little by little, and the bare upper body was completely wet by the drizzle. Leaning on the water droplets that condensed on the sucking arm, the desert-like thirsty throat finally lost some heat.

   "Where is this place?" The voice kept echoing around. The surrounding area is obviously a very wide plain-like venue, so vast that you can't even see the edge, you can only see the black and blue lines that gradually intersect the sky, but the sound can echo here.

   still did not answer. Why are there no answers to my own questions. Cassia was a little irritable, her throat was even more thirsty, and the water droplets that gradually gathered on her arm were not enough for her needs.

   I need to find a water source, on this scorched earth that seems to have no possibility. Cassia wanted to find a commanding height to increase his vision. When he woke up, he saw a black vague shadow far away, but after walking for a long time, the distance between the two still seemed to be parallel.

   "Should I be lying on a metal table?" The boy's lips were dry and cracked, and there were bright red flesh inside, but it seemed difficult to tell whether there was blood in the desert-like body.

   "Should I have some surgery?"

   "Should I be in the underground laboratory of the Biology Building of the Military School?"

   "Why am I here?"

   Cassia has many questions in his heart, but there is not even a living thing around to answer him. Only the wind that blows all the time, and the occasional drizzle.

   The rain is sweet. He did not forget to comment that the spring rain does have a different taste, that is the taste of life.

   It seems that there is no night and day here. The sky is always like a flame that is burning, and there is dark red covered by black smoke. They are drawn into a long ribbon and covered on it.

   The red of the sky is really too bright, as if their fuel is scarlet blood, with a steady flow and constant supply, otherwise how could it ignite such infinite things as the sky and burn them raging.

   The ground turned back to black scorched earth, and it was impossible for life to exist in this area. Cassia looked at the moist black ashes under her feet, her white shoes had been dyed with another layer of new clothes. He walked across a broken glass-like scorch mark on the ground that was burnt by a flame jet. This was a shocking mark, and he could even truly feel the temperature of the flame at that time.

   I don’t know how long I have been walking, and gradually, Cassia felt that there was no power in her body. His footsteps began to tremble, so he fell to the ground in the next step, his body was immediately stained with the black of thirst and blood, and a huge shadow enveloped him the moment he fell.

   When he raised his head, the vague shadow in the distance was already standing in front of him.

   This is a battleship broken in the middle. Its wreckage is too huge, and the bright red light of the sky is temporarily blocked by it. This is a mountain made of steel. The black shell has undergone natural erosion for many years. The huge gears, axles, complete projectiles, and broken machine bodies scattered around are already covered with red rust.

   They are just standing quietly on the black scorched earth, without the language of life, only the scream of wind blowing on it.

   Cassia struggled to stand up, walking around the wreckage step by step. He saw the shocking wound in the center of the battleship. Most of the alloy on the wound showed the shape of lava that had lost its temperature and condensed. Because of the scorching temperature, most of the battleship's main body was melted into liquid metal, and then the part that was barely connected below could not withstand the huge pressure, slammed, and finally fell on the scorched earth. What kind of flame should it be to have the power to melt such a huge battleship into molten iron?

   No one around to answer.

   Continue to move forward, not far away is a cannon barrel that was scattered because of the huge impact. The caliber exceeds Cassia's height, and the rusty death spiral inside has no sharp taste, but the invisible darkness in the depths still seems to show that it is still a steel dragon that can breathe flames.

   Bypassing the ten-meter-long gun tube, there was a unique sound of steam in front of it, which was the hissing of broken air valves.

   Cassia's face was surprised, it turns out that there are other sounds in this world.

   The familiar white steam column appeared in his pupils, and Cassia rarely smiled, crying for joy, but there was no water needed for tears. The chapped lips were pulling painfully because of the muscle movement of the smile on his face.

   The steam column is also lingering, but this does not prevent the large amount of water vapor inside.

   This is an arm-thick rubber tube. The air valve at the bottom has been eroded into a gap due to rust, and steam is gushing out of it. And the other end of the hose is connected to a complicated machine. The gears and shafts are scattered all over the place. However, under the sound of steam surging, you can still hear the slight gear turning. This machine is like steam, and it is still doing the final Moaning and groaning~www.ltnovel.com~ Cassia took off her wet pants and used it to cover the gap in the air valve to collect the moisture in the steam. After repeating it several times, I finally felt the traces of fluid flow in the body, and the thirsty throat no longer burned.

   He finally has the energy to look at the sounding machine around him again. The gear pile was naturally eroded, and the red rust stained the surrounding land. Inside there is a dark card showing a corner. It is a password card, and the style is not much different from the current password card.

   Cassia picked up the code card, but naturally he could not leave their traces on it. Although the card has lost its original luster, the gears that are still intact inside show that its function is still there. There was a card slot next to it, and Cassia judged that the steam hose connected should be a member of the battleship analysis machine.

   The password card was easily swallowed by the incomplete analyzer, and the noise of the gears inside increased a little, but after a while, nothing changed. It was originally a boring act, and Cassia would not expect this warship that had become a wreck to fly again miraculously, and no changes around it was the most normal result. The rest is enough, and he feels that he has some strength in his body. He is going to observe the wreckage of the battleship again to find a suitable path for the next climb.

   Then he just got up, there was an electronic sound peculiar to radio machinery around him.

"Hello, human friend." A few words came from the analyzer, and the voice was like this world with a flame sky, lifeless and powerless, just like Cassia, breathing like a steam valve~www.mtlnovel .com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read.
