Garon briefly explained the function of the Distorted Seed. Everyone in the cabin felt a chill down their spines. Wasn't this another version of the Predator?
Moreover, Garen, who was able to research this type of cell, had also faintly put on the outer layer of a terrifying scientist's skin, causing the few of them to revere him even more.
"You guys have to be careful. Even I can't control him after the transformation," Garon reminded them solemnly.
Indeed, the Distorted Seed could extend one's life by consuming food. This method could also be used to save an individual who was in despair. After all, being parasitized by the Distorted Seed did not require one to turn into a monster. As long as Garon did not activate it and he did not activate it, he would be able to live a stable life like a normal person. The strong physique brought by the Distorted Seed would bring benefits to the person. Just like the girl from the Inner Courtyard who was parasitized and the mercenary leader Inari who had a special mission. As long as Garon did not activate it, they would still be Garon's spies and would not be discovered.
Unfortunately, Garon was attacked too quickly. He did not have the time to activate these hidden forces. Everything happened too quickly.
After solving Fanny's problem, Garon immediately realized that everyone looked at him differently. Although his image had become that of a mad scientist, this method was an absolute life-saving method when everyone was not severely injured! In a cruel environment like the radiation belt, no one would mind becoming a monster as long as they could survive. Moreover, they would have the opportunity to become stronger.
After seeing everyone's strange expression, Garon quickly returned to the cockpit. Malone and East Perrin were still piloting the Flying Ship, trying their best to move it towards the fixed direction.
"How is it?" East Perrin asked.
"It's settled," Garon sat down and exhaled. "How much longer do we have to go?"
"It might take a few more hours. But I don't know if we can still reach the place with this thing?" Malone continued from the side. "Leo City is destroyed. There are only a few of us left. In the future …"
"What's there to be afraid of? We can survive with just a few of us! As long as it's safe and we have food to eat, it's easy to recruit people, "East Perrin said nonchalantly.
"The Predator Wave is not a matter of one or two small places," Garon suddenly interrupted.
"What do you mean?" East Perrin was stunned and looked at Garon.
"I said, Predator Tide." Garon stared into her eyes and said word by word, "It's not just a matter of one or two regions. Now, the entire mother planet is full of predators. All the regions have shut off all contact with the outside world. Even trash is no longer transported outside. Do you understand?"
The news came so suddenly that East Perrin almost didn't realize that she was piloting a flying ship. He almost loosened his grip and let the flying ship crash to the ground.
"Not just now. The Predator Wave will continue for a long time," Garon said calmly. "In the future, there may be predators that can fly, and predators that can breathe underwater may appear in the sea. This is a disaster. It erupts once every hundred years. "
East Perrin stabilized the flying ship. She was stunned for a moment and looked at Malone.
"It's true." Malone nodded and sighed.
"Really?" East Perrin was stunned.
There were Predators everywhere in the world. Other than the Territories, there was no place that was absolutely safe. Then where should they go?
"Why do those Territories have such strong power but never expand? They could slowly purify the radiation zone but they didn't do so because of the Predator Wave that occurs once every hundred years," Malone explained. "I've experienced it once."
Experienced it once?
Garon looked at the old man in surprise. So this guy was actually over a hundred years old? It was not simple. The average lifespan in the radiation zone was only seventy to eighty years. This guy could actually live for over a hundred years. It was conceivable that he must have his own story.
"We must have a safe stronghold. If that mountain top doesn't work, we have to think of a new way!" Garon said affirmatively. "I don't want to die in the hands of those mentally retarded trash."
"Me too," Malone said in a low voice. "I've lived for more than a hundred years. I still want to live a little longer. I don't plan to die."
"You old man, you've lived for so long and yet you don't want to die. Us young people don't want to die either!" East Perrin immediately recovered. Anyway, she used to live a life of danger. It was just more dangerous now. It didn't matter.
"Now my only hope is that there are no Predators in the place we're going to …" Garon said lightly.
"No one lives there. No one is there. There shouldn't be any Predators …" East Perrin hesitated.
*****
On the grayish-black grassland, a strangely shaped black stone mountain stood quietly on the grassland.
The mountain was like a huge black stone that was inverted into the ground. It was trapezoidal. The surface was full of potholes like bomb craters. The strangest thing was that there was only a small canyon on the side of the mountain to go up the mountain. The rest of the place was full of cliffs and precipices. The surface of the potholes was full of all kinds of moss, making the stone wall very itchy and slippery. It was impossible to climb or hang a rope.
The entire mountain looked like a pyramid that was smashed down by a giant. Moreover, such a strange shape was still very stable on the ground.
At this time, on the grassland near the mountain, a broken shuttle-shaped flying ship full of patches was flying crookedly towards the only canyon road on the top of the mountain. Compared to the mountain that was hundreds of meters tall, the flying ship of more than ten meters was like a small earthworm. It was not worth mentioning.
If it wasn't for the black smoke that was constantly emitting from the back of the flying ship, it was estimated that no one would easily notice this broken flying ship that could die at any time.
"It's here."
In the flying ship's cockpit, behind the three of them who were sitting, Sinno pointed at the mountain in front and said happily.
"This is the place that I came to last time! It's very strange here. There's no grass on the mountain. There's only a very slippery moss. If it wasn't for my good luck that time, I don't know how to climb up and I probably wouldn't be alive now. "She was slightly relieved.
"Is there any other valuable information?" Garon asked softly. "About the dangers of this mountain? Or the places that we need to pay attention to. "
"I don't know. I only know that this mountain is very slippery. However, it's not slippery when we reach the flat ground on the mountain. That kind of moss only grows on the slopes and cliffs. It's completely an excellent stronghold." Sinno shook her head.
"Then let's go." Garon nodded and gestured for East Perrin and Malone to speed up and fly towards the only path on the mountain.
The flying ship shook slightly and tilted quickly. It started to climb up along the black mountain. The strange canyon was the only path that led to the top of the mountain. There were tall and straight cliffs on both sides, leaving only a small canyon road that was less than ten meters wide in the middle. It seemed like it was man-made for people to go up and down.
The flying ship climbed up in the canyon and got closer to the central part of the mountain.
Soon, a meandering stream appeared from the right side and flowed slowly down the mountain. The stream was very small, only as thick as a palm. However, it was enough to satisfy the needs of such a small number of people. It should not be a problem as long as they used a water purifier to filter it.
Seeing that there was water, the villains in the flying ship immediately relaxed. In the radiation belt, they were most afraid of not having water.
"There's a small lake that accumulates water all year round. There's no problem with the water source." Sinno added. "This is also the key reason why I said that this place is suitable to be a stronghold. However, the water quality here is not very good. Even after filtering, the radiation level may still be very high. "
"We might not even be able to keep our lives now. As long as we can survive after drinking some high-radiation water, it's better than dying!" Malone sighed. "How's Fanny's condition?"
"He's already quietened down. His condition is improving. He should be fine in a few days." Speaking up to this point, Sinno looked at Garen with sparkling eyes. There was not only gratitude in her eyes, but also a desire for this terrifying self-healing ability. In the radiation belt, having this kind of self-healing ability could increase the survival rate by more than half!
"Don't look at me like that. You'll know how troublesome it is in the future." Garon shook his head.
When the distorted seed went berserk, even he could not control it. It killed every living thing it saw. When it went berserk, even he was afraid of himself.
Garon shook his head even more as he thought about this.
The Flying Ship was gradually approaching the top of the mountain. As the high-strength glass in front of them turned from dark to bright, the entire Flying Ship rushed out of the canyon path and directly arrived at the top of the mountain.
The top of the mountain was a large empty black flatland. There were some potholes and puddles in some places. There was also a very large lake on the right side. Two very small streams flowed down from the two sides of the lake. One of them was the one they saw earlier. The other one fell from the cliff of the mountain. It looked like a white ribbon that was hanging on the cliff. It swayed in the wind from time to time.
The most beautiful lake was at least a hundred meters in diameter. It was completely blue and the high-radiation lake water was as pure as the sky. There were no plants in it, only a large amount of moss. It was all blue moss. It seemed that they were the real reason for the lake water's blue color.
Looking at the lake from afar, one could see schools of very small black fishes swimming back and forth, playing to their heart's content.
"Good place!"
Garon could not help but praise.
"The radiation level is twice as high as the flatland. Staying here for more than three days will cause the radiation sickness to worsen. "Malone looked at the radiation detector on the Flying Ship and frowned. "No wonder there are no radioactive people living here. This place looks beautiful, but it's simply a land of death!"
The tilted Flying Ship gradually slowed down and finally stopped at the edge of the lake.
"I'll go down and take a look." At this moment, Garon released the cold radiation on his body and walked out of the cockpit under the surprised gazes of the two people.
"Mr. Garon, you're indeed a mad scientist. To be able to transform yourself into this … You're really … amazing!" Malone's gaze was strange. He never thought that he would be safe and sound after staying beside a terrifying high-radiation person for so long. Moreover, this high-radiation person was not seriously ill or weak. He also did not lose his mind and become a predator. This was the most strange thing.
"Mr. Garon is our hope now." East Perrin nodded. She was not surprised at all. She had seen this scene before.
