The Dean Has Arrived

This is a barren land.

Only black or brown stones can be seen on the concave and convex ground, loess that can be raised by a gust of wind, and some yellow weeds that seem to have died. The so-called Gobi is probably such a sight.

A creature similar to a cross between a hare and a marmot poked its head out of a hole, and its triangular mouth filled with grass seeds that did not know where it was squirming was constantly squirming.

On the distant earth, weird vibrations kept coming.

If you look closely, you can see that the pebble around the groundhog is shaking slightly when there is no wind.

Finally, the groundhog, which seemed to be aware of something, stopped chewing. It stood up with its strong hind legs relative to its front legs, looking at the direction of the distant sound.

There was a misty and yellow scene.

Residents living in this area are well aware that it is a sandstorm.

It's just different from ordinary sandstorms. In the yellow mist that can't see anything, you can see pale thunder flashing by.

And only at the moment when the thunderbolt flashed could it be vaguely captured, it was an illusory and huge figure.

Although the dust storm was still far away, the groundhog was already a little panicked. It straightened its body and made a few sharp calls to remind itself of the dangers of its kind, and then slid into its own cave. Before the sandstorm passes, there will be no more heads.

This is a wise choice.

Even though it seems that there is still a distance of tens of kilometers, the speed of the sandstorm is surprisingly fast, and it will come in an instant.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the entire world was enveloped and flooded by a bewildered yellow mist. Even the light of the large white fireball above the head could not penetrate this layer of armor that surpassed the haze, and the visibility was reduced to a sudden A state close to reaching out of sight.

The rumbling sound became louder, but at this time it was able to make people understand that this rumbling was not the sound of lightning and thunder, and the source of the sound was other.

About five minutes after the sandstorm came to this area, the rumbling body finally appeared.

It is a weird building made up of two cast iron columns. Everywhere on the outside of the building, you can see patches of iron covered with rivets. The height of the column alone has reached about three hundred meters, and its width is quite large. Surprisingly, the radius of the cylinder below has exceeded two hundred meters, so in fact the shape of this building is not a cylinder, it looks more like a thick discus stacked together.

The eight directions of the lower column stretched out huge mechanical giant feet like octopus tentacles. Each step was accompanied by a heavy boom, leaving a deep hole in the Gobi land.

Even if you can’t see any weapons from the outside, the terrifying volume, the roar of the road, and the thunder flashing around all tell people who have witnessed all of this how dangerous this thing is—if anyone could To survive the terrifying sandstorm from the outside.

In fact, even if you enter this terrifying building like a mechanical octopus, it may not be much better.

A large number of black iron pipes are flooded like blood vessels. I don’t know if it’s because of disrepair or it should be. Many pipes are sprayed with water vapor, and occasionally they make a rapid and sharp sound like a whistle. Things shouldn't explode, right' illusion.

Many cumbersome mechanical parts accumulate static electricity when they are in action, and an electric arc flashes from the heavy metal casing of those mechanical parts every once in a while, bringing a strong smell of ozone.

And these lightning will eventually radiate out through the column on the top of the building, and finally form the pale thunder.

Deep in the body of this giant mechanical monster that is constantly wandering in the Gobi, there is actually a comfortable living space beyond ordinary people's imagination.

And in the deepest part of this living space, there is a secret research room.

The room is full of steampunk fans, with various types of copper yellow gears and bearings piled up everywhere, and communication tubes made of brass are almost all over half of the wall, and the other wall is full of or Beautiful or interesting machine keys.

A young man with a hedgehog head wearing a T-shirt and overalls, protective glasses on his head, and dirty khaki thick leather gloves on his hands, is under the warm light, holding a magnifying glass to study a shape intently Strange gears.

After a while, he suddenly raised his head and frowned.

"Which one is this time?"

As soon as his welcome fell, the space not far away was distorted, revealing the figure of a young man in a robe.

At first glance, the appearance of the two is almost the same, but the difference in clothing and hairstyle is too huge, so it doesn't feel like looking in a mirror.

"Hello," the visitor politely greeted the owner of this room: "My name is Sivi Adric, another form of your existence in the parallel world."

"I remember I should have said it before," the owner of the room carefully stored the gear in his hand in the valuable storage box, and then locked the storage box: "My war against you...no, it should be me I'm not interested in the'our' war, and I will definitely not take sides."

"On this point, I am not here to invite you to help me in the war."

Xi Wei said.

"What is that for? A day trip to Parallel World."

An ironic smile appeared on the other's face: "Although I am a little arrogant, I don't think there is anything good in my world."

Indeed, if it is in other worlds, there are at least a lot of beautiful scenery to see, but this world is not like this-it almost has only three terrains: desert, neighboring door and oasis. Besides, almost nothing else can be seen.

But the interesting thing is that even in such a world, humans have survived and are building cities better and better.

The reason why humans can do all this is the allotrope in front of Xiwei.

Unlike other Xiwei who rely on fighting and killing to save the world, this old iron directly raised the level of science and technology in this world to a notch through his own technology.

And he himself successfully completed a qualitative leap through an "infinite energy" technology. Under the almost medieval technology tree, he forcibly created something extraordinary like a mechanical fortress...

In a sense, the'Xiwei' in front of him should be the most complete of the main task of the system among all allotropes.
