On the first day of entering the fog forest, the pilot recorded five paragraphs in his notes, and then nothing was written.
The FMG folding submachine gun used as the pilot’s self-defense weapon is still folded and the magazine is full, which means that at least this pilot has never encountered a situation that requires aircraft combat.
However, valentina found that the shell powder of this "walker" mecha machine had been exhausted, and so did the rocket launching nest. The blade of the melee mecha fighting knife was also covered with gouges where whole pieces were missing. The front, side and back armor all showed claw marks and traces of acid corrosion. The legs were simply not original but were removed from another body.
All this says that this walker mecha has experienced a very fierce battle-but it is difficult to judge whether this battle happened before or after entering the forest because this armored unit was chased into the foggy forest by dozens of indigenous creatures.
Notes of Young Pilots Before entering the forest, their whole army had been fighting and fleeing into the forest, but there was no fighting on the first day after.
Then Kelan hit the ed emergency kit, where the tool bases were still stuffed with two unsealed energy bars in the interlayer, but they had melted into soft mud-less from the pilot’s personal point of view, he had not run out of ammunition.
In the fog, the cockpit of the walker mecha is escorted by a sealed structure gas filter and oxygen generator. When a walker mecha can last for at least one month in a toxic environment … What is the cause of death of the pilot?
"There are still crystals in the power furnace that have not run out of energy." valentina said to Koran, "The main body of the mecha is not damaged. Give me two hours and I can make this body move again."
"That’s strange … there was no ammunition, no oxygen, no guns in the cockpit, and no shell casings to rule out suicide … so how did the pilot die? Is it that the cockpit was secretly pried and strangled by vines while sleeping? It’s not right. People need to sleep. Machines don’t need walkers. The mecha’s energy is not exhausted. If the cockpit is pried by external forces, an alarm will definitely wake up the sleeping pilot … "Kelan ruled out the death of this pilot one by one, but in the end he found that there was nothing left-except for the unreliable death like sudden illness, he could not find a reasonable explanation.
Ivan’s autopsy also found no clues-there is no residual toxin and radiation in the bones, and there are many fractures in the bones like the golden hair remains, but the method can determine whether the fractures occurred before or after death.
On the other side, 33 and Mo Jue checked the "96" light tank together-from this tank model, we can know that this is a light tank that was officially installed in the new era in 96, and it has already been retired. Except for the military museum and some powerful collectors’ warehouses, there are still a small number of people born in this era who can see it in pictures and videos.
There are two smoke bombs left in the tank shell margin, and almost all of them hit the machine gun at the top of the turret, leaving a severely distorted metal base.
Due to the adoption of a large number of automation and intelligent equipment, the standard crew of the 96-type light tank needs two people, one driver, one commander and gunner on the roof, and the machine gun is usually operated by cooperative warfare or by tank infantry.
But this 96 tank department 33 actually found 15 remains!
According to the body system of these remains, we can determine the identity of the deceased before his death. Except for the driver and the conductor, he was an infantryman of this unit. The remains of these people were huddled up in narrow and crowded cars, which were closely attached to each other …
"It’s stuffed like a sardine can," said Mo Jue.
Koran shook his head and said, "I think it’s more like the black slaves in the cabin of the slave ship in the fifteenth century of the old era."
The height of the 96-type light tank car is a little bit small, with a height of 1.4 meters. People can touch their heads when sitting, and the area can accommodate up to four to five people … These fifteen remains are curled up and stacked, just like a frame …
"It is possible that these people were already dead when they were moved in," Ivan thought for a moment and said.
"It’s also possible that this posture can’t even move. It won’t be long before the people in the carriage will die of suffocation. This tank should be specially designed to put the bodies," said Ke Lan. "But … there is a problem that I can’t understand."
"What’s the problem?" Ivan asked, looking at Kelan.
"According to the diary of the walker’s mechanic in the Ark archives, this unit was chased desperately before crashing into the fog forest. Fortunately, it is impossible for soldiers to collect the bodies of their comrades-in-arms who died in battle sometimes, and it is estimated that it is too much to abandon the bodies of their comrades-in-arms and the seriously injured, but in order to make more people alive, the commander can be forced to make that decision." Kelan frowned.
"This … what’s wrong with this?" Mo Jue at that time some didn’t react.
"When this army entered the fog forest, it should not have taken the bodies and seriously injured people, which means that these people all died in the fog forest." Ivan said with a dignified face-it is obvious that he has read the implied meaning of Koran’s words.
"What do you mean?" Mo Jue still didn’t respond.
"Your team has lost so many people in the foggy forest, whether they are dead or alive now … but they are all" missing "from the definition of state, aren’t they? Have you ever seen a companion die in your sight-I mean, in this forest, "seeing Mo Jue still didn’t understand Kelan and explained it to her in detail with a sigh."
"This ….." Mo Jue paused. "It seems … it doesn’t seem to be true. Although we all say that this is a’ man-eating forest’, although bodies can be seen everywhere in this forest … but it has never really shown its fangs in front of us …"
"Could it be that the bodies of these soldiers were found by lucky people after they disappeared and died and then collected?" Thirty-three said, "After all, there are 1,500 people in this army, and the possibility of finding the bodies of missing persons will be much greater."
"It’s more likely, but it won’t be much bigger." Ivan shook his head. "Let alone 1,500 people in terms of the total area of the foggy forest. Even 15,000 people are just a drop in the ocean. 1,500 people line up normally and even a football field is not satisfied … And judging from the found remains, they are obviously very scattered. If one or two bodies can be found, it makes sense … I don’t think it’s possible."
But before Ivan could conduct an autopsy on these fifteen remains one by one, Zeluo suddenly came forward and pulled the sleeve of Kelan and said, "There is still one body you haven’t found."
"There’s another one … you mean counting the walker pilot. Is there a seventeenth skeleton here?" Koran slightly zheng consciousness will focus on the piles of bones moved out of the tank car-don’t have a bone was scattered and mixed into his dead bones?
Ivan thought the same way as Koran. He carefully counted the piles of bones and shook his head. "It’s fifteen bones. Yes, I counted the skull, pelvis and thigh bones. Each kind of bones is fifteen people."
"Under the car" Zeluo added
"Under the car?" Kelan and 33 glances, the latter immediately turned into a mini excavator with a wave of his hand, and frantically dug up the soil buried in the tank chassis.
Fifteen minutes later, Ivan picked up the seventeenth bone from the square and two tracks of the tank, accompanied by a pile of clothes and belongings that had been badly rotted.
However, Mo Jue let out a surprised low shout when he saw the messenger bag that had even broken its suspenders.
"What’s the matter? Is this skeleton someone you know? " 33 asked
