(I feel refreshed every day, every vote counts during the critical period of the leaderboards!)
A gigantic Zerg.
Wang Tong didn't run away immediately, even though he really wanted to. Old Fart always said that impulsiveness was the devil, and Wang Tong was always impulsive, which was why he ended up like this. Wang Tong gritted his teeth and suppressed the urge to run back, because he was sure that the Zerg would tear him apart before he could reach the mining pit.
Wang Tong felt like he was sitting on pins and needles for the next five minutes. Fortunately, the Zerg left in a hurry.
Wang Tong sat on the ground as the mining pit door slowly closed behind him. He had never been so excited in his life.
He was faced with a difficult problem. Even if he were to live frugally with all the food here, he would still have to wait for death if the rescue didn't arrive within a week.
No matter how talented Wang Tong was, he was still a student who had just graduated from middle school. All he had was a C-type non-combat robot, a week's worth of food, and a pitch-black mining pit.
Most people would be depressed even if they weren't crazy. Wang Tong, on the other hand, started to eat calmly after he sighed at his own fate.
Anyway, happiness or sadness wouldn't change the outcome, so he decided to be happy. There was still one week left, and God had spent seven days to create mankind, which meant that many things would happen in seven days. Maybe a transport plane would land in front of the mining pit, and a beautiful stewardess would invite him to board.
Wang Tong fell asleep again after eating a few mouthfuls. His body was still weak, and he was extremely nervous just now, so he couldn't control himself anymore.
Charcoal was the only one guarding Wang Tong diligently in the dark.
Failure always happened after one gave up completely.
Old Fart always said some very philosophical things, even though he didn't do any of them.
Wang Tong was still young, so he didn't want to give up. Perhaps it was because of his youth that he had gotten used to it after being scared at first. Wang Tong spent a week in the pitch-black pit, and with Charcoal's help, he was able to gradually expand his range of movement. Apparently, the Zergs had left the base after destroying it, leaving only a few low-level Zergs in the vicinity. Although Wang Tong still couldn't fight against them, at least he didn't have to sit around and wait for his death. There weren't many usable items in the base, but Wang Tong was overjoyed to find a Nutrient Converter that was still intact.
Since the environment here was poor, and Charcoal's level was low, Wang Tong didn't expect to find a nutritious meal. To prevent malnutrition, every base would be equipped with such a device, which could convert organic matter into pills. Although the taste would make you want to kill the inventor, the effect was very good.
The tall plants on Norton were indeed organic matter, so Wang Tong had solved his food problem and searched the base thoroughly. He was surprised to find a well-preserved crate of cheap liquor and some broken biscuits. These were all treasures to Wang Tong, so he had to eat them sparingly. During this period of time, Wang Tong had been hearing explosions and sparks from time to time. It seemed like the war wouldn't end as quickly as he had hoped. The human army was facing a strong resistance from the Zergs. Wang Tong was not an idiot, he knew that it was better to rely on himself than on others. As long as he survived, there would always be a chance.
He was prepared to fight a protracted war.
Perhaps it was because he was born with an optimistic and adventurous gene, he felt that this exciting life was much more exciting than staring at a bunch of clumsy robots mining on a monitor. Of course, one of the main reasons was the awakening of his eighth brain region. Although he still didn't know how to activate his GN Force, his enhanced Soul Energy had made him more sensitive to his surroundings, which had increased his alertness to his surroundings.
Humans were afraid of the unknown. Once he had mastered the control of his surroundings, even though the Zergs were scary, they would still be useless if they couldn't bite him. The mining pit had become Wang Tong's new home.
"Charcoal, store the food deep inside … Wait, leave a bottle of liquor for me."
"Yes, Master." Charcoal was Wang Tong's most loyal companion, and Wang Tong couldn't imagine how Charcoal would be able to survive if he were to be alone.
Other than a pile of scrap metal, there was nothing valuable inside the mining pit. Moreover, it was too deep inside, and the air quality was worse and worse, which made it unsuitable for humans. However, food was the most important thing, so it had to be hidden properly.
Wang Tong spent most of his time practicing his Tactics of the Blade every day. He wasn't sure if it was because of the awakening of his eighth brain region, or because Old Fart's Tactics of the Blade was really powerful. Wang Tong felt better every day, and he was able to adapt to the gravity better. His instincts told him that this was the only way for him to survive in this place.
Wang Tong had also found a meter-long iron rod as a weapon. It might have been torn apart by the Zergs, as it was extremely sharp. Although Wang Tong wasn't sure if it would be able to deal any damage, the iron rod gave him a sense of security.
The reason why people are in pain is because they always pursue the wrong things.
Wang Tong was only a fifteen-year-old young man, and it was already impressive for him to be able to stay here for a long time. Therefore, Wang Tong decided to explore the outside of the ruins. Maybe he would find a way out, or maybe he would bump into some human troops. Anyway, the chances of him staying here were even slimmer.
Perhaps Wang Tong had grown bolder because he hadn't been discovered by the Zergs for a long time, but he had to pay the price for being young. He was discovered by a lurking Zerg, and when the gigantic Zerg leaped in front of him, Wang Tong was able to keep himself from collapsing. Instead, he sprinted as fast as the wind. Meanwhile, the gigantic Spider Zerg that was about three meters long and one meter tall was charging towards Wang Tong like a mini tank while waving its eight razor-sharp claws.
Humans had a deep hatred for the Zergs, and the Zergs had the best way of evolution known to all. They could even pass on their emotions. The Zergs had dominated the space, and this was the first time they had suffered such an inexplicable defeat against the humans. A race that was originally not very strong had suddenly become so strong, and their speed of evolution was also unimaginable. Therefore, the Zergs were very excited when they saw humans.
"Charcoal, Charcoal, open the door!"
Wang Tong shouted from afar, and fortunately, Charcoal heard him and opened the door in time. Wang Tong and Charcoal had promised each other that the door would only be opened fifty centimeters away.
Wang Tong rolled into the door, and he didn't dare to look back as he sensed that the Zerg was just behind him.
Bang …
The Zerg's forehead hit the door like an axe, and Wang Tong was shaken by the impact. However, the door was at least eighty centimeters wide, and it seemed to be made of high-quality materials. The Zerg only managed to leave a few scratches on the door, and then it disappeared. Of course, it might also be because the Zerg was weak.
Wang Tong lay on the ground, gasping for air. For the first time in his life, he realized that he had the potential to become a flying man.
"Ah, where's my stick?" Wang Tong stared at his empty hands, it seemed like he had forgotten to fight back when he saw the Zergs, and was too focused on running away.
"Master, let me get it back for you."
"Nah, you think your body is tougher than mine?"
Charcoal would be torn apart by the Zerg in less than ten meters. Wang Tong didn't want to see the only person he could talk to turn into a pile of scrap metal.
