Well, maybe those big companies and high-level powers have the ability to pursue gourmet food.
For the vast majority of people living on this wasteland, food has never been a necessary material to sustain life, nothing more.
For the refugees, it is already satisfying to be able to eat every day and not to die from starvation, and it is even more rare to "eat".
"Wild Hunter" as an evolutionary is much better than the refugees, but it is also limited.
In this crisis-ridden world, you must also spare your life and risk your life in the wilderness.
In many cases, in order to avoid being caught, I dare not start a fire, so I can only eat frozen meat, pancakes, and snow water to fill my stomach.
Therefore, in Huaxi's dictionary, there is never the concept of "food".
Until this moment, when she was ignorant, her hands and feet were almost awkward, she stiffly grabbed a ball of food and stuffed it into her mouth, feeling the warmth, and the aroma of the food sprinkled with spices exploded on the taste buds.
There was a momentary blank in her brain.
"Is this... food? Can the food... be so delicious?"
This idea emerged in my mind irresistibly.
Huaxi suddenly realized that he couldn't control his hands.
She didn't have the habit of using chopsticks. She simply held a box of lunch and swallowed it fiercely. It looked like she was worried that she would be taken away if she was eating slowly.
Lin Tuo specially ordered a large box lunch. He had just eaten a few mouthfuls, and Huaxi started to lick the lunch box under the low temperature of minus 20 degrees.
"Hiccup!" After licking a few mouthfuls, he rolled his eyes while choking.
"You eat slowly..." Lin Tuo was taken aback, but his tone of voice became much more relaxed. He reached out for a bottle of mineral water, handed it to her, and said, "Drink, smooth."
"Thanks... hiccup!" Huaxi said halfway, she couldn't go on. She just looked at the bottle in her hand in admiration, hesitated, unscrewed it, and took a sip.
The sweet taste contrasted with the dust-covered snow water, and the contrast was so strong that she didn't even dare to drink it.
He just took a few sips carefully, then twisted it up again, subconsciously trying to stuff it into his pocket.
"Why do you hide a bottle of water? What about this box..." Lin Tuo said helplessly.
Then he pointed to the big bag of skewers and snacks: "I'm not full, there are still these."
As a result, Huaxi's shriveled stomach began to have a lot of new things, a handful of meat skewers, after a few bites by the little girl, almost swallowed the signature.
As for the snacks, she only took a few bites and put them away.
Well, since the stomach is no longer hungry, it's worth keeping these on the road to eat.
Lin Tuo looked at it and didn't say anything.
But Huaxi, the whole person's eyes are not right, just staring at Lin Tuo after eating the lunch box, then suddenly said:
"Who are you?"
The origins of these foods are incredible. Those snacks with exquisite packaging, although the words on them are hard to understand, are obviously very similar to the creations of the old age.
But after thirty years, except for a few foods, all that is left is the packaging...but these are fresh.
Also, those hot meals are even more difficult to explain, the source is extremely suspicious, logically, it can't be explained anyway, unless...
"Could it be that your ability is to make food out of thin air?" Huaxi suddenly asked seriously.
In her opinion, this may be the only possibility.
"Puff." Lin Tuo was drinking water, almost squirting out, but after thinking about it carefully, let alone really seem to be his "ability".
Screwing on the bottle cap, Lin Tuo raised his face and said:
"You shouldn't know, don't ask. Okay, I've eaten things, now, it's up to you to continue answering my questions, well, if you don't want to say, then I can only..."
"Ask, I'll say everything." Before he could finish, Huaxi sighed and said.
I can't resist it anyway, let alone eat people's mouth short.
Lin Tuo was stunned, then burst into laughter, thought about it, and said:
"You should have seen it too. I am not a local, but come from a far away place. I don't know the local climate. So... I want to get in touch with the three forces you mentioned, and where can I find them quickly? ?"
"Are you looking for them?" Huaxi stunned, suppressing the urge to inquire, and said seriously, "If it is the usual, go to their respective main cities, but now... you can only go to Daxizhou."
Daxizhou...
Hearing this term, Lin Tuo's eyes moved, and he said quietly, "Why?"
"Because not long ago, the radiation intensity of Daxizhou began to decay, the burning fire, the gray mountains, and the main forces that have been floating in the doomsday swarmed the mountains of Daxizhou.
Explore that area and find the legendary secret seal. "
Huaxi explained.
"Secret Seal? Tell me carefully about Daxizhou." Lin Tuo asked with a serious expression.
...
Soon, with the help of Huaxi's account, he probably sorted out what happened.
Among the survivors of the wasteland, a legend has been circulating.
That is, more than 30 years ago, the reason why the Crazy Emperor was able to control the scientific researchers so smoothly and carried out the experiment that destroyed the world was with the help of an extraordinary artifact called the "Secret Seal".
According to the legend, the artifact was produced by the emergence of "spiritual tides" every few years, and possessed the power to influence the spirit of others.
There are even more rumors that the reason why the mad emperor succeeded in usurping the throne, establishing a new dynasty, and controlling the government for decades is also relying on this mysterious treasure.
Of course, this statement has no empirical evidence, but it is probably not groundless.
When the "catastrophe" occurred, the secret seal was also buried in the western mountains along with the mad emperor and the entire Daxizhou laboratory.
And because that area is the closest to the explosion, radiation pollution is also the most serious.
For thirty years, many people have tried to enter Daxizhou, but they have not returned alive.
Therefore, there has also become a dead zone on the wasteland.
It is not until recent years that as the radiation pollution has decreased, the various forces have regained their sights.
Especially, not long ago, pollution entered a period of rapid decline.
The entire Daxizhou is no longer so dangerous, so the three major forces all mobilized the main force and rushed to Daxizhou with the intention of digging the restricted area and looking for the secret seal.
...
"The three major forces are worried that the other side will find the secret seal. After all, if it has such a magical power, once anyone obtains it, it will change the wasteland pattern.
Even many evolutionaries have gone... and, taking a step back, even if you can't find the secret seal, it is said that Daxizhou Lab has many good things.
The largest weapons production site in the old age was there.
So... whether it is for the secret seal or the resources there, the three major forces cannot give up..."
"So, about a month or two ago, their main force has already entered Daxi Continent, and they should still be exploring deeper. If you want to find them, it's easiest to go there, and you can meet... "
Huaxi said, suddenly sighed, and muttered:
"Originally, I got that batch of weapons before, so I thought about it and took a look."
Lin Tuo smiled, then fell into thought.
The news that Huaxi had brought had indeed made up part of his knowledge blind spots and learned the specifics of the incident.
The "Ling Tide" should be related to his act of collecting ether... This made Lin Tuo a little bit dumbfounded and a little surprised.
After all, even the earth civilization outside the sandbox has not ascertained the ether...
Well, that can't be said, after all, Lin Tuo did not conduct global collections outside the sandbox, nor did he disturb the earth's etheric environment on a large scale.
If one day he has the ability to collect globally, he will naturally be found anomalous by geoscientists.
In contrast, what made him even more concerned was the "Secret Seal" item.
"Extraordinary power... is related to the spiritual tide... what the is that?"
Lin Tuo was curious, and even had the idea of sending it to Daxizhou immediately, but after thinking about it, he pressed it down again.
Anyway, the entire sand table is under his control, and the secret seal can't escape his hand anyway, there is no need to be in such a hurry.
However, Daxizhou still had to go. It happened that he had been walking westward, just using this distance to hunt down mutant beasts, speed up the body tempering process, and kill two birds with one stone.
After making up his mind, Lin Tuo said again:
"The last question, what is your ability?"
He vaguely felt that the extraordinary abilities of the "Secret Seal" might have some similarities with the "superior abilities" of these evolvers themselves.
This was also the second time he raised this question, but this time, Huaxi struggled briefly, sighed, and confessed:
"My ability... is actually self-healing from pain...that is, once my body is injured, it can be repaired quickly, but the cost is the consumption of nutrients in the body.
Therefore, every time I get hurt, I feel very hungry..."
"I was injured when I was fighting with the people from Burning Fire Company. I repaired myself on the road, but I was starving to death. Then I went to Mine Town to find food."
That's it.
Lin Tuo's eyes were clear, no wonder he was still wondering in front of him. He was clearly chased and killed, how could he still have the time to steal food? It turned out to be the price of self-healing.
Earlier, after he injured Huaxi, the reason why the opponent's recovery speed was so fast was also a manifestation of this ability.
"Well, it sounds like a kind of rapid cell proliferation... I don't know if it can be copied, if I can study it..."
Lin Tuo was a little moved and couldn't help but think.
...
The two sat for a while and learned more details.
When the rest was almost done, Lin Tuo took Huaxi and got on the car again: "After eating, it's time to go on the road."
"Where are we going?" Huaxi, who was unbound, hurriedly climbed into the car and asked.
"Click... rumbling..." Turning the driving key, the engine turned, and the entire modified car trembles. In the rumbling sound, Lin Tuo kicked the accelerator and responded faintly:
"Daxizhou, we, all the way to the west!"
...
ps: Thanks to the old book friend "Mom, I'm so handsome" for a great reward! !
