Global Exploration: Starting from Decrypting Chernobyl

12: The green double pupils in the darkness!”That’s terrifying!”

”I never knew before that radiation was like this, a physical damage, not a magical one?”

”What physical or magical?”

”Is the person upstairs watching too many magical girl shows?”

”Speaking of which...”

”These leopards and mutated creatures survived by adapting to radiation, so how can they be harmed by it again?”

”Host, can you explain?”

”Yeah!”

”I’m a bit confused too!”

”...”

The bullet comments immediately erupted as they watched the live broadcast, seeing nuclear radiation, which was incredibly distant from them, now appearing vividly before their eyes.

And it was so terrifying!

While somewhat morbidly curious, they also felt a little scared.

Afraid that the black bones would crawl out of the screen and bring them fatal radiation too!

”...”

”This is simple.”

Wu Tian pulled out the radiation detector, held it in front of him, and pressed the detection switch.

”200 Roentgens!”

An urgent alarm sounded.

Wu Tian pointed at the numbers on the screen and explained to everyone.

”The current environmental exposure is 200, but as everyone just saw, the black bones have an exposure of a full 300. So even if these mutated creatures can resist radiation, it’s only to the environmental standard!”

”They still can’t resist the black bones!”

”Therefore, I’ve thought of a good way to deal with these mutated creatures!”

Saying that, Wu Tian, under the watchful eyes of the Host’s audience, reached out and picked up a small finger bone, holding it in front of him.

He smiled slightly.

”Since these bones are precisely what those mutated creatures fear, I will use these finger bones to fight against these abominations!”

...”No way?”

”Is the Host actually going to carry this finger bone with him?”

”What else can he do? Should the Host hide in the train car and be suffocated to death by the mutated creatures?”

”That’s true, but the radiation from these finger bones is too high. Can the Host handle it?”

”I don’t know, but looking at that leopard... it feels a bit risky!”

”Host, don’t take risks!”

”...”

While the bullet comments were discussing animatedly, Wu Tian carefully broke off another finger bone from a different black skeleton and carried it with him.

Then, he dug a large pit on the spot with an entrenching tool.

He buried the eight black skeletons inside.

Immediately, Wu Tian sighed towards the Host.

”There’s no other way. If I want to continue, these two finger bones are essential.”

”I can only borrow them temporarily.”

”Once I’m done exploring here, I’ll return these two finger bones!”

After saying that, Wu Tian took the finger bones and returned to the train car, preparing to continue exploring deeper with Rice.

At this moment, some professionals in the Host began to analyze.

”The Host’s previous actions were all correct, so why did he lose his head this time?”

”I’m an American nuclear physicist. I can guarantee that if he carries such a highly radioactive item with him, within two hours, this arrogant Host will be covered in ulcers!”

”American?”

”Is that the kind of nation that only dares to type on keyboards at home and shits themselves when danger arises?”

”The person upstairs, don’t be so harsh.”

”They just haven’t seen it, don’t dare to do it, and are jealous of others!”

”Heh heh...”

The person who just claimed to be an American nuclear physicist continued.

”Say whatever you want with your sarcastic remarks.”

”I can tell you, he’s wearing a JC_2018 model anti-nuclear radiation suit, which can only resist a maximum exposure of 200 Roentgens, which is just environmental radiation.”

”That black bone has a full 300 Roentgens. Don’t you know in your hearts if he’ll die or not?”

”...”

As the American’s words fell, the entire Host fell into a silence.

After a long while.

A bullet comment appeared on the public screen.

”I believe in the Host, I believe in the miracles of the Dragon Country. The Host will definitely survive!”

”Right!”

”I also believe in the Host. Our Ulan Country people admire heroes, and heroes will be blessed by God!”

”That’s truly ridiculous, God?”

”Do you think radiation is a child’s game?”

”I’m putting it out there: if this kid isn’t dead in two hours, I’ll do a live broadcast and eat shit in front of everyone!”

...”Boss!”

”Are we really going out?”

Rice asked somewhat uncertainly, looking at the finger bone in Wu Tian’s hand.

”Of course, we have no water source; we can’t be trapped here to die!”

”We must keep moving forward.”

”But...”

Rice glanced at the finger bone in Wu Tian’s hand.

”Can this thing really keep those mutated creatures from approaching us, like you said?”

Wu Tian smiled slightly and stood up.

Holding the pitch-black finger bone in his left hand and the colt in his right, he stepped out of the train car.

”Let’s try!”

”We’ll know if we try!”

”Holy crap...”

During the days he spent with Wu Tian, Rice learned all the Chinese interjections.

This was also the time in his life he had used so many interjections.

”Boss!”

”You’re really bold. Why aren’t you afraid of anything you do?”

”Afraid?”

Wu Tian turned his head and looked at Rice.

”We have an old saying in our Dragon Country: hesitation leads to defeat, decisiveness leads to giving up for nothing. Only recklessness has a chance to win!”

”I already have cancer, what am I afraid of?”

”Hiss...”

Rice sighed.

”Your Dragon Country’s culture is truly profound. I want to learn more when I have the chance!”

”There will be plenty of opportunities!”

Wu Tian chuckled.

”Hurry up and follow!”

...The figures of the two were gradually stretched in the twilight, as they passed the dead leopard’s body, advancing step by step towards the distant animals.

Upon nearing these animals, Wu Tian took out the black finger bone.

He held it in front of him.

Indeed!

”Woof woof...”

”Roar!”

The nearest wild dogs and elk roared uneasily.

As Wu Tian and Rice approached, these animals were retreating step by step.

Even though saliva was still dripping from their mouths!

Even though their ferocious faces were filled with unwillingness!

They were still, step by step... being driven back by Wu Tian and Rice!

”It’s working!”

Rice was excited, his grip on the AK47 loosened, and his palms were covered in sweat.

”Mm!”

Wu Tian also felt a surge of excitement.

”Come on, let’s go get our lost water back first!”

”Then we’ll go into town to find some food!”

Wu Tian led Rice step by step back along the path they had come.

And at this moment!

Two dim, lantern-like green lights glowed in the darkness!

A much larger leopard, its eyes filled with angry, bloodthirsty killing intent... was staring intently at the two of them!
