"I have a big appetite … I have the last compressed biscuit left," Zorig said shyly. "But I still have two pieces of air-dried beef jerky, which are very hungry. It takes a short thumb to last for half a day … Do you want to try it?"
As he spoke, he took out two long objects with dark surface and metallic luster from his backpack and handed one of them to the hound.
"This thing … is beef? Why have I never seen this kind of beef jerky? " The hound looked at the long strip in his hand and said rather suspiciously, "The texture does look a bit like muscle tissue … but it’s too hard. Can this thing really be eaten? I always feel that I will lose my teeth. "
"In ancient times, there was a Mongolian name called’ Bullthorn’ when Genghis Khan led an army to attack the continent of Europa … but now only our Mongolian descendants can make this kind of food."
The hound tried to saw a small piece of steel teeth on the back of the dagger and put it in his mouth and bit it-"It seems to be really edible … just as hard as stone. How much supplies do you have left, Kelan?"
"Not much" Kelan pulled her shoulder bag and glanced at "a bag of self-heating rations, four compressed biscuits and a bottle of’ blue capsules’"
The "blue capsule" in Kelan’s mouth is a special medicine developed by Maya creatures, and it is called "No.663 emergency meal replacement agent". It takes a small capsule to make people not eat for four hours, and it will not cause hunger, and physical strength and energy will not be affected … But this substance can be regarded as a hormone, but it can not give human nutrition and energy.
It is said to be a "meal replacement agent", but it can’t really replace food.
It’s just an emergency measure. No one will eat it unless they have to.
Its main function is to block the brain’s perception of hunger and extract human energy. Once the drug is effective, hunger and fatigue will double, which is even worse than those powerful stimulants.
Moreover, because of the low blood sugar content, most people with blue capsules will faint directly within ten seconds after the drug effect is over. If they are not treated, these fainted people may never wake up again.
This is a card, a card that can be played when the ammunition is exhausted, but if it is not out of the corner in the last 40 hours, it will still lead to death.
"I still have two bags of self-heating rations and two compressed biscuits," Asano said.
"I have a lot here." valentina emerged from the cockpit of Valkyrie with one hand carrying a backpack. Two backpacks were bulging with things-just from the convex shape on the surface of the backpack, you can guess that they were filled with compressed biscuits and canned food.
These foods are Kelan, and they put them in the cockpit of Valkyrie before they set out for emergency supplies-for a person, these foods can last for nearly half a month, but if they are evenly distributed to everyone, it will be pitiful.
"Yeah … I’m afraid this thing will last for three days even if I save it." The hound looked back at the deep and dark tunnel in the distance. "I don’t know that we will be trapped here for a few days, so don’t starve to death."
"Starving to death is better than being killed by alpha man-machine, right?" Leighton murmured
"Bullshit, that’s because you’ve never been hungry!" The hound immediately stared at him and scolded him back. "Once, I chased the vanguard too deeply and plunged into the desert. I broke off with the big army and was cut off by those clever animals. We can use the terrain to build fortifications and stick to the aid … Do you know how many rations we brought at that time?"
"How much?" Leighton asked.
"Just one of the two meals was an emergency," said the hound. "It was a quick decision. It was scheduled to be from 9: 00 to 3: 00 in the war, and we could still catch a stew dinner when we got back to the base after work … It’s all the blame of the damn intelligence department … The number of indigenous creatures in that area was nearly three times more than what they told us. We kept moving and fighting after we dropped, and we had long since deviated from the original marching route when all the animals in sight were cleaned up."
"That you can’t call the support? Let the transport plane to pick you up and then throw some supplies. "Leighton wondered.
"We don’t want to you? Do you know what our goal was that time? " The hound gave him a dirty look. "It’s a stray dog!"
The stray dog is a gregarious indigenous creature with a body shape similar to that of a large dog on the earth. It was given such a strange name because their bones are extremely magnetic. When a large number of stray dogs get together, a large disturbing magnetic field will be formed, and the equipment and positioning devices will be disturbed by the magnetic field, which will make people who enter their territory lose their way.
"No wonder then?" Leighton couldn’t help asking-although he had been in the field army, he didn’t belong to the combat unit but to the logistics support department. He had heard the battle story from the soldiers who had retired from the first-line troops and had never experienced it himself.
"If you are hungry, you can pick up the carcasses of those animals to eat." The hound said as he chewed the mouth for a long time, but it was still not softened by saliva. "These animals are not only radioactive, but also fucking toxic, firewood and sour. Even if they are cooked, it is hard to swallow. Many soldiers vomit after eating them … but there is no way out. They can swallow their throats with their eyes closed."
"But we are in a worse situation now," Ivan looked around. "At that time, you didn’t have stray dog corpses to pick up and eat, but this tunnel had metal and concrete … Oh, and those who don’t know what materials are made into photographic equipment, but I don’t think our stomachs can digest such things."
Chapter four hundred and fifty-six Seven and a half days
"There are three human corpses here, which will not be infected with prions if eaten properly …" Ivan laid his eyes on the corpses lying on the ground.
"This is absolutely impossible," the hound vetoed. "This is the bottom line. Even if I starve to death, I will never treat my own kind as food … that kind of behavior is only done by wild animals. This is the difference between people and animals."
"I’m talking about …" Ivan’s words haven’t finished yet, and his face suddenly changed dramatically, just like thinking of something horrible. He bent down and retched, and Leighton and Zhuoligetu hurriedly held him before.
"Doctor, what’s the matter with you? Are you okay? " Leighton hurriedly asked
"I’m sorry, I just … said I shouldn’t talk." Ivan nodded to the hound and then turned to look at Koran-Koran noticed that his eyes were a little more worried and a little less desperate.
"Koran, I seem to be getting a little … I’m worried about one thousand …" He said in a bass voice and quietly swept his prosthetic out of the corner of his eye.
"Rest assured" Kelan certainly knows what he is worried about. He stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. "If I really get there, I will help you handle things well … but don’t do anything stupid before that."
"Ahem … OK …" Ivan straightened up and held his prosthetic limb with his other hand. He always felt that the joint between the prosthetic limb and the body was dull and painful, as if tiny tentacles were coming out of the flesh-although he knew that all this was an illusion caused by fear, the illusion was too real to completely devour his reason at any time.
Although the invasive cells have been suppressed, the psychological shadow is hard to erase, and it is difficult to feel that despair without personal experience.
The hound stared straight at Ivan for five minutes before he turned his eyes and said to everyone, "I suggest that the leftover food be kept in a unified way and distributed regularly and quantitatively, so that we can last longer. Should no one have a problem?"
Except for valentina’s special situation, the hound himself is the person who holds the most food. It will not cause others to resent this proposal … What’s more, the hunting group has already reached the point where their lives can be trusted, and there is no possibility of unfair distribution.
Ke Lan immediately stuffed all his leftover food into the hands of the hound. "You are more experienced than me in this respect, and you manage these supplies."
"OK" The hound nodded and looked at Aya and her agents. "What about you?"
"…" Ayabuliya hesitated for a second and then gave the leftover food to the hound.
All kinds of canned food, compressed biscuits and energy bars piled up in front of the hounds into a hill half a meter high, while others kept records while counting the types and quantities of supplies with a tablet computer.
"It’s a total of 25 bags of self-heating rations for standard meals, six bags of large fast food meal replacement, 47 pieces of compressed biscuits, 60 energy bars and various cans, plus two beef jerky as hard as stone and a bottle of blue capsules." The hound said, "There are many things to look at, but the problem is that there are many mouths to eat … twelve people in total, and in order to ensure combat effectiveness, you can’t go hungry … My experience is to see us.
The hound stretched out five fingers and continued, "If we don’t get out of this hellhole in five days, there will be drugs, but even if you haven’t eaten this’ blue capsule’, you must have heard of it … It’s not a good thing, and it will only make us last for two more days, that is, there are still seven days left for me."
"By the way, doctor," the hound went to the rescue capsule and patted the hatch vigorously. "Does this guy not eat?"
"He can live on nutrient solution by eating in the present state … but injecting him with nutrient solution is mainly composed of glucose, which can also replace food if we run out of rations," Ivan replied.
"I almost forgot to say how much nutrient solution we brought?" The hound suddenly smiled at PiaoShangyou with malicious intent.
Ivan "if you give him someone, it will last almost seven days."
"Did you hear that? If we haven’t found a way out in the last two days, don’t blame me for drinking all your nutrient solution first," said the hound. "If we all starve to death, a person like you can’t go out. It’s better to leave us hope for life, right, Park … Dr. Park?"
"Wait … wait. I remember there should be some emergency supplies in the side compartment of my rescue capsule. You can rummage through it and maybe find something to eat …" Park Shangyou immediately said.
"Now just say? Don’t tell me you didn’t remember it before … "The hound said discontentedly." Do you still want to keep this supply for yourself? Do you have this picture for you? Can you eat? "
"I … I really didn’t think of it at the moment … I found those bodies had a great impact on me …" Park Shangyou tried to argue.
