Years later, when Joyner recalls that incident, she still has lingering fears.

Unexpectedly, he almost left this world and became a corpse completely.

tick tock...tick tock...

It's raining, the rain has a slight smell

Grey clouds swept across, and under the gloomy sky, all around was wilderness. Occasionally, you can see the remains of pre-civilization buildings on the abrupt surface under the hill, as well as sporadic plants, which make Joyna feel a little hope.

Three hours? Five hours?

she does not know.

In short, Joyna has climbed several kilometers in the wilderness, but still has not left this miserable area.

According to the vague memory of hundreds of years ago, this is a very huge military base. She even touched the broken asphalt pavement under the depression - it was originally part of the base's airport runway. I don't know why it became like this?

Joyna didn't know how many years she had slept before she became like this. With her memory and tenacious life, she knew that this place was definitely the military base.

The asphalt on the roadbed can prove it, and the surrounding openness can also prove it, and she can also identify the direction.

However, the tired Joyna wanted to take a break, but was stunned by a sudden acid rain. The acid rain only lasted for more than ten minutes, but it brought great fear.

"No...you have to find a safe place to shelter from the rain..."

"Keep going...don't stop...keep going, I don't want to be corroded by this strong acid rain...if it goes on like this...I will die." Joyna gasped, thinking to herself, trying hard Calm your emotions.

At this moment, she was naked, and the only numbered hospital gown on her body had been scratched by low thorns and rough gravel, and was almost torn to pieces.

"But... do I still have the strength to move on...?"

"Can I... still climb into that seemingly abandoned building?"

Can't handle so much, must speed up!

Joyna gritted her teeth and continued crawling.

"Hold on...I'm Joyna Faith...the last genetic modification, even if I only stick to that tree...and escape this acid rain!"

Her lips were chapped and had long been flaky.

The pale, fragile lips seemed to be covered with ravines, but she still pursed her lips tightly, preventing a drop of rain from flowing into her mouth.

Strangely, her originally smooth skin remained the same, with little change in sight except for the dirt.

At first, she thought it was the body's dehydration reaction caused by the drought, which started from the lips, but she soon realized that it was because of the acid rain.

This acid rain is terrible, and Joyner speculates that the composition of the rain may be composed of amine proteins, or contain toxic substances such as choline. Mixed together, these substances can strongly irritate the human skin, causing redness, pain and even ulceration.

When she first came into contact with it, she only felt itchy local skin, which caused a stinging and burning sensation. After a while, it caused her internal pain and external itching, which was extremely painful.

After dozens of minutes, the burning pain and tingling were much lessened, and to her shock, her physical strength slowly recovered after that.

She didn't know that this was because she was actively adapting to acid rain, and the cells in her body had changed the way they absorbed water. Her cells are frantically rejuvenating, gobbling up dreaded amine proteins.

In the darkness, she saw two trees on the desolate mound.

The two trees look very similar, one big and one small. The big tree, with its huge canopy extending below, is roughly enough to cover a small building with six or seven floors.

The smaller tree didn't look good, and all the nutrients seemed to be taken away by the big tree.

Finally got there.

When Joyna came closer, she discovered that this shorter tree was more than thirty meters high, with a radially spread out crown and good leaves, which can be said to be very huge. This tree is oddly shaped, twisted and crooked enough to be tall and straight, but the trunk is very thick.

According to her estimation, with such a thick diameter, I am afraid that three people may not be able to hug it.

Joyna couldn't recognize what kind of tree it was, and with the recovery of her physical strength, her consciousness became clearer. Under the thick and thick tree canopy, a large dry open space is covered, which can completely park several heavy armored vehicles without being exposed to wind and rain.

"Is it an illusion?"

Joyna consciously still looked a little dazed, squinted, raised her head, and watched for a while.

"A wilderness without any plants along the way, why can such a big tree grow here?"

Although this place should be familiar, she didn't remember seeing such a huge tree around the base. And it is very strange, no grass grows anywhere else, only these two trees grow alone on this mound.

The word "weird" appeared in her mind instantly.

"Maybe it's the nutrients in the ground?"

Joyna thought wildly, but gave up after a while. Because she was exhausted now, she had to curl up as much as she could, leaning against the tree trunk, trembling all over.

The rain had soaked her clothes, and a gust of wind blew through, and she didn't feel cold until now.

It feels so weird!

Joyner was dismayed to find that it was completely unfamiliar and nothing.

In other words, this is not the world she remembered.

Difficulty, hunger, thirst, cold - all kinds of uncomfortable feelings were mixed together, and they all hit her.

"call--"

She was really tired and tried to turn over and lay down on her back. Looking at the huge canopy, let the limbs be placed at will, without moving.

She needs to continue to regain her strength, then find something to satisfy her hunger, or see if she can find a source of water nearby. But all of this is based on the premise that she can walk, so for now, it's better for her to move less.

At this time, she suddenly faintly heard some voices coming from the ground. She trembled, propped herself up on her elbows, and looked around.

The night was the same as always~www.readwn.com~ but she tried to identify it for a while, but she couldn't hear any sound.

Still an illusion?

No matter how much it is, my mother has to sleep first!

A burst of extreme tiredness struck in an instant, Joyna relaxed and her eyelids began to tremble slightly. She looked at the swaying shadow of the tree, slowly closed her eyes, and the memory spread.

Since leaving the "Hibernation Barn", she has spent a long time in fear and despair. Then a strong desire to survive began to appear. Joyna resolutely decided to leave the abyss, and it took about five days to climb out of the deep well of death...

No, maybe five days? seven days? Who cares!

On the abandoned hanging ladder, Joyna raised her head several times and stared at the sky, but she couldn't tell the time by the brightness and angle of the sunlight.

The tentacles felt only metallic cold, but she persisted.

She had nothing left anyway, but she had time.
