Chapter 352 The atmosphere is getting weird
Zhang Tuohai reviewed the situation mentally several times, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his plan had a high probability of success.
His advantage was obvious. Even if he failed to arrive in time when it got dark, the worst that could happen was that he could just turn on the headlights and travel some distance at night.
Even if he encounters certain difficulties, such as strong storms, rising sea levels, etc., he has enough means to deal with them.
You can even carry it with a car repair kit.
He doesn't even need as many supplies as the next safe house. As long as the supplies can match those of this safe house, he will a huge profit.
No matter what, as long as we reach the safe house, it's a profit. It's better than wasting an entire afternoon standing there.
The more Zhang Tuohai thought about it, the more determined he became.
He glanced at the weather outside. It was still cloudy and the sea was rough. It looked scary, but it seemed no different from the morning.
Zhang Tuohai stopped eating and put everything in the car: "Xiao Ai, let's go to the next safe house."
"I understand." Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai immediately changed direction and rushed back to the sea highway.
At this time, the frequency of waves washing over the road became more frequent. Before, it happened once every five or six minutes, but now, it happens about once every minute.
Moreover, the waves also brought a lot of garbage onto the roads.
For example, broken glass, rotten nails, plastic waste, seaweed, water plants, various shell fragments, Zhang Tuohai even found a half-cut human figure.
Each of these things does not cause much damage to the car, but when they appear in large numbers, they will cause continuous damage to the wheels. Some tiny things will fill the grooves of the tires and cause the tires to slip.
It looks insignificant, but the damage is significant.
If ordinary players encounter this situation, they will usually slow down or get off the car from time to time to clean up the dense garbage.
But Zhang Tuohai didn't even intend to stop, and directly asked Xiao Ai to rush over. If the tire was seriously damaged, he would just use the car repair kit to repair it with one click.
His schedule is already quite tight and he can't afford to waste time on these trivial matters.
He is simply spending money to buy time.
If the flying speed of a hot air balloon was not slower than that of a highway car, Zhang Tuohai would even consider flying at a low altitude to speed up his journey.
Moreover, he didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Zhang Tuohai always felt that the frequency and amplitude of earthquakes on the sea highway in the afternoon were much stronger than in the morning.
Moreover, the further you drive, the higher the frequency of the road vibrations, the more obvious the amplitude of the vibrations , and the more serious the damage to the road.
When Zhang Tuohai first set out, the cement road only had a lot of cracks, but now, it has turned into pieces of cracked fragments, just like land that has been dry for a long time.
Moreover, the gap is still expanding.
Zhang Tuohai even saw a crack on the road that was 20 to 30 centimeters wide, running across the highway and cutting the sea highway in half.
The cracks on the road are jagged and sharp steel bars stick out from the broken parts, making it look like a "semi-natural" roadblock.
If an ordinary tire were to press on it , it would probably be punctured on the spot. Even if it was a solid rubber tire, it would suffer a lot and its durability would be greatly reduced.
Zhang Tuohai guessed that this thing might have been created by the game system to discourage players from playing.
This thing might be able to stump ordinary players, but it is not enough to deal with him.
Zhang Tuohai directly activated the steam equipment, and six thick metal legs stretched out from both sides of the infantry fighting vehicle and stepped on the broken road surface.
Afterwards, he easily crossed the "chasm" that would take a lot of effort for ordinary players to cross.
After crossing the gap, Zhang Tuohai continued to rush forward.
The further he went, the worse the road conditions ahead became.
Various grooves of more than ten to twenty centimeters can be seen everywhere, and cracks of more than 30 centimeters can also be seen everywhere.
Zhang Tuohai even saw a crack more than one meter wide, filled with turbid sea water.
At one point, Zhang Tuohai wanted to take off and fly directly, but the sea breeze was getting stronger and stronger, with the wind speed reaching at least level seven.
This level of wind force can still have a controllable impact on infantry fighting vehicles on the ground, but if you want to use a hot air balloon to take off, you will be blown to an unknown destination by the strong wind.
Even if he had a propeller thruster, it would take a huge amount of power to fight against strong winds of this magnitude, and the speed might not be very fast. It would be better for him to stay on the ground.
Zhang Tuohai observed the situation and directly converted the solid rubber wheels into tracks. The heavy tracks modified by Lilith made it easy to deal with these garbage. As long as it was not a special anti-tank trench, Zhang Tuohai could easily cross it.
The only drawback is that the tracks designed by Lilith are too thick, which causes the car to consume a little more fuel.
However, this is nothing to Zhang Tuohai.
He is now able to mass-produce gasoline using charcoal trees and gasoline converters. Although the output is limited due to the planting area, it is not a problem to supply this kind of daily consumption.
The heavy tracks rolled over the broken concrete road, making a rumbling sound and completely clearing away all obstacles in front of it.
Zhang Tuohai was full of confidence and sped forward. The sky was getting darker and darker, the sea breeze was getting stronger and stronger , and the sea highway was getting more and more broken. In the end, it was difficult to see a whole piece of cement, and the ground was full of broken rubble and powder.
For a moment, Zhang Tuohai thought he had left the sea highway of the resort world and arrived in a war-torn country.
Zhang Tuohai felt that the atmosphere was becoming increasingly strange. He felt that the world should not have been like this, but something had happened that caused it to gradually change from a holiday world into this.
Zhang Tuohai felt itchy and wanted to know what this unexpected event was that actually changed the style of painting in the world.
Suddenly, Xiao Ai slowly stopped the car.
"Why did you stop? What happened?" Zhang Tuohai asked.
"There is a 6.5-meter-wide trench ahead, which makes it difficult for infantry fighting vehicles to pass through."
Xiao Ai said.
"Trench? Let me see."
Zhang Tuohai adjusted the camera, and a trench appeared in front of them on the monitor.
The ravine was more than six meters wide, and the broken part was filled with turbid sea water, making it impossible to see what was going on below.
Zhang Tuohai took out two hunting spears tied together and thrust them down. The hunting spears went in completely and hadn't yet touched the ground.
"We're in trouble." Zhang Tuohai sucked his teeth. Two hunting spears tied together, more than three meters long, still couldn't reach the bottom, which meant it was extremely deep down there. His idea of blasting down the edge of the pit and forcing his way through failed.
He wanted to go straight through, but he didn't have the right bridging equipment.
"Is the only way to get through it is by flying?"
Zhang Tuohai was troubled as he looked at the wide trench.
