The unmanned reconnaissance aircraft quickly flew to the nuclear explosion area, but the sky was filled with smoke and dust, and the aircraft could not capture any useful images.
The reconnaissance plane flew for half an hour and finally returned to the flight base. Then a group of soldiers in protective suits took it away for isolation and removed the radiation.
"Wait until the mushroom cloud dissipates, then we'll go in and check the situation."
The impact of the nuclear explosion will last for about a day, and they will be able to go in by this time tomorrow.
After the explosion, the bombing area became completely quiet, and the monsters inside stopped moving.
"Those monsters should be dead."
Zhou Yaning took a telescope and climbed onto the temporary platform to look forward, but all he saw was a cloud of dust and no monster.
"If they could withstand nuclear bombs, our defenses would have been destroyed long ago."
Under a nuclear attack, even a level four monster would not be able to survive. Now that I haven’t seen any corpses coming out, they are probably all dead.
They waited from morning until dark, and the mushroom cloud gradually dissipated. They waited until morning again, and the mushroom cloud and dust finally dissipated, and the bombed area returned to normal.
But it only looks normal. It is now full of deadly radiation and an ordinary person will die if he goes in.
"Check your protective suit carefully. Don't lose your life because of a small problem."
In the morning, after the dust settled, the army sent people to check the situation. Zhou Yaning also wanted to take a few people with him. Now a group of people were wearing radiation protective clothing.
Lu Chengchuan also put on protective clothing. He was not sure whether the energy shield could protect against radiation.
In order to protect himself, Lu Chengchuan put on protective clothing honestly.
"Everyone's gathered, let's go!"
A group of people drove towards the nuclear explosion zone. This time they were more cautious and it took them more than two hours to reach the outskirts of the nuclear explosion zone.
As they approached the nuclear explosion zone, the Geiger counters placed on the car began to tick, and the sound became louder the closer they were to the center of the explosion.
After driving a few more kilometers, the car in front stopped.
"Get off the bus. We're still one kilometer away from the center of the nuclear explosion. Get off and walk!"
A dozen people got out of the car and walked. After twenty minutes, they arrived at the location where the nuclear bomb fell.
All the monsters and the poisonous gas in the air were purified by nuclear bombs. If it weren't for the Geiger counter ticking beside the ears, people who didn't know the truth would think it was just an ordinary desert.
After walking about a hundred meters forward, a deep pit appeared in front of everyone.
"Down there! There's a big door down there!"
As they approached the center, the soldiers discovered a sand pit several dozen meters deep in front of them, with a metal gate standing in the pit.
A dozen people behind trotted to the edge of the sand pit and saw the gate in the middle.
"How is it, was it successful?"
The gate in the bunker changed color. It used to be a dazzling brass color, but after the nuclear attack, the entire gate turned blue-black.
Zhou Yaning went to ask Lu Chengchuan. Among the dozen people present, he was the only one who had the ability to judge whether the gate was damaged.
Lu Chengchuan didn't say anything. His eyes were fixed on the half-finished gate, and they were shining.
After looking for a while, Lu Chengchuan withdrew his gaze: "I don't sense any power on the gate. Wait a minute, I'll find a monster to ask."
His words made Zhou Yaning stunned. She was wondering where Lu Chengchuan was going to find the monster when she saw Lu Chengchuan take out a crystal.
Lu Chengchuan pointed the crystal at the door and said, "Is this door still usable?"
Shi Hong's soul looked at the gate. It was a little surprised by the gate's current appearance. It didn't expect that humans really had the ability to destroy the gate.
"It can't be used now, but it can be repaired. It will take time and various materials to repair it." Shi Hong didn't dare to hide anything from him and answered honestly.
“How long will it take to fix it?”
"If we don't care about the cost, it will take four to five years at the earliest."
After talking with Shi Hong, Lu Chengchuan turned around and said, "For the next four to five years, no monsters will come out. This is considered a success."
The nuclear bomb did not completely destroy the gate, but the gate will be unusable for at least four to five years. The problem is solved, although monsters may come again in the future.
"Four or five years? That's not bad."
Zhou Yaning was naturally dissatisfied with this result, but the army even used nuclear bombs, so they could only accept this result.
"It's a good result. In four or five years, who knows what the situation will be like then."
It's been just over a year since the monsters appeared, and the world has changed so fast. Who knows what it will be like in four or five years? Let's just live in the present.
The troops went up to take pictures and took some sand and gravel back to test the radiation intensity. After doing this, they drove back to the temporary base.
After returning to the base, they were sent to the infirmary, took off their protective clothing, and after confirming that there was no residual radiation on their bodies, they gathered at the command headquarters for a meeting.
"Four or five years. What is that thing made of? Even a nuclear bomb can't destroy it?"
When they learned that the gate had not been destroyed, several senior military officials couldn't believe it. That was a nuclear bomb. The instantaneous temperature was astonishingly high, and the subsequent temperature was enough to destroy all metals. Could this gate be so powerful?
"This is the result. It buys us at least four or five years."
Zhou Yaning pointed at the photo on the screen. It seemed that only the color of the gate had changed, and the structure remained unchanged.
"What if we use another nuclear bomb? One with even greater power."
Looking at the gate, a general proposed the idea of launching another nuclear bomb.
"I don't know. It requires experts to calculate. If the plan works, that's the best outcome."
The best outcome, of course, is to destroy the gate, so that the danger to the Northern Desert can be eradicated, and they don't have to deploy a large number of troops and resources here.
"We can't think too much about it. In half a month, if everything is fine, we will leave."
The bombing ended, the gate was damaged, and the monsters in the sky died under the nuclear bomb. The war ended suddenly.
Of course this is a good thing. Most soldiers don't like fighting. They fight to protect their homes, not for the sake of fighting.
"Brother Lu, what do you think the world of corpse spirits is like?"
After the battle, Lu Chengchuan told them about the world of corpses. They were at least slightly surprised to know that there was a world outside the Earth.
Monsters have appeared, so it’s nonsense to say that there is no life other than Earth.
But they are still very curious, after all, the outside world is very mysterious to them.
"You can ask it."
Lu Chengchuan handed the crystal to Qian Xiaoling and told her to ask if she had any questions.
"Be careful not to break the crystal. I don't want to kill it yet."
This is just an ordinary crystal. It will easily break if it falls hard. Shi Hong is still of some use to him, so he doesn't want to turn it into life for the time being.
"If I ask it, will it tell me?"
Qian Xiaoling held the crystal carefully and looked at the monster soul wandering inside. She was not very confident.
"That depends on your own ability."
Lu Chengchuan waved his hand. She could ask whatever she wanted, as long as Shi Hong would answer.
"Hey...can you talk to me?" Qian Xiaoling picked up the crystal and said to the soul inside.
“…”
