The flat concrete pavement has cracked everywhere, and clusters of vigorous weeds have risen. Thick radiant clouds block the sunlight that shone directly from the head. Under this gloomy and hot sky, countless flying insects "buzz" around the things they are interested in. It may be a fresh skeleton eaten by wild beasts, or it may be a carnivorous plant deliberately emitted, with a strong tempting fragrance of branches and stems. In the shadow of the rocks blocked by shrubs in the wilderness in the distance, there are also rotten wolf and hyenas lurking in the dark, staring at their prey. At first glance, it seems full of vitality, but there is no trace of human existence.

The carriage carriage carries small batteries that can ensure energy consumption of 5,000 kilometers, and food and water can last for nearly half a month. In the large and renovated cargo hold, there are tens of thousands of general-purpose bullets. Even in the worst case, people who go out can rely on these things to survive in the wilderness for a long time.

Along with Lin Xiang, the entire convoy had only six members. Except for a three-star parasite who served as the deputy leader in the second car, the other four were temporarily selected from the "Extreme Warriors" legion, with soldiers with an evolutionary level of eight or nine.

Humans cannot survive in severe radiation areas. The main purpose of this mission is to explore unknown terrain. Therefore, Lin Xiang does not need to carry a large number of guards. If he really encounters some irresistible variable Nine-Star Parasites, the only super strong people in the world, without spies peeping, Lin Xiang is willing to try the power of his fists on those mutant creatures.

The crazy roar of the engine spread far away in the open wilderness, and even faintly echoed in a blurry manner. The towering high-voltage electric towers on the horizon have lost their function, and these metals covered with rust on the surface may collapse at any time. In contrast, the cement poles standing on the plains are still well preserved. Although most of the wires on the poles have fallen off, they are still firmly stuck in the middle of the soil. It seems that guards with time marks silently guarding their own necessities, which is also an eternal responsibility.

The time on the watch was already past five o'clock in the afternoon. The wilderness was still stuffy. The people in the car had already taken off their combat uniforms that were tightly clasped and replaced them with summer short-sleeved uniforms that were handed over by Yinyue City Logistics Headquarters and were delegated and handed over by the black group dragon badge.

"You, and those behind, get another shot of anti-radiation agent."

The off-road vehicle was parked in the middle of the road. Lin Xiang pulled up the handbrake, took off the radiation mirror, turned around, and pointed to the two other evolutionary soldiers on the back seat of the car, pointing to a small suitcase with a white round bottom and red cross pattern next to it.

Mutant humans can withstand a certain degree of radiation. The specific intensity depends on each person's evolutionary class and strength. Lin Xiang and another parasitic dependent can be safe in the heavy radiation area, which does not mean that soldiers who only have high-level evolutionary abilities can also fight against harsh environments. As long as it takes a certain period of time, they still need the effect of potions to survive.

After taking a look at the four white numbers "7529" on the road meter, Lin Xiang pulled open the partition in front of the passenger seat, took out a tactical telescope, pushed open the car door and jumped off, stood more than three meters away from the front of the car, and looked towards the dizzy and dark horizon.

It has penetrated more than 600 kilometers deep into the severe radiation area. There is no people, no water, and no edible plants growing in the mild radiation area are found.

Desolate and empty, with ruins after reinforced concrete collapsed everywhere. Occasionally, human remains of bones can be seen between rotten wood and bricks. A rusty and broken road marking is erected next to the highway. On one side, a few steel bars are supported by a huge billboard that is more than ten meters above the ground. The banner made of polyester plastic film has been torn to pieces. The wind blows the ragged but extremely tough threads.

"Hunting" sounds. From the perspective where Lin Xiang is, he can occasionally barely identify the familiar face of Fan Bingbing, a famous actress of the old era, from the banners flying up and down. She no longer has beauty—two cracks torn from the center of her face, making the woman on the picture look extremely ferocious. The color of the picture is washed away by countless rain, and the color of the picture also makes the face that should have been pink and white, filled with piles of dark yellow patches similar to urine dirt.

The only gain is that the road under my feet is well preserved and can carry heavy vehicles. Longtengling has been able to produce its own radiation-resistant agents. As long as you carry enough high-energy batteries, you can travel through this area of ​​death that ordinary people cannot overcome.

"Your Excellency, I think you should take a look at this----"

The parasitic entourage who walked off the second car was a middle-aged officer with a middle-aged figure and a major class badge. He held a radiation detector that had just completed soil sampling and analysis in his hand and walked quickly to Lin Xiang. His tone was full of excitement and even his voice was trembling slightly.

The surface of the instrument represents the three radiant states of heavy, medium and light, and is occupied by three colors: red, yellow and green. The slender pointer that sways left and right with the strength of radiation energy is as if affected by an agitated mood state, flashing back and forth between yellow and green. After a few seconds, it finally stayed firmly in the middle of the reading of zero to one hundred in the green area, and was engraved on a black number frame with "seventy-one".

"It's actually a light radiation area. As expected, this guy Liu Yuchen is right———"

Looking at the stable reading on the instrument, Lin Xiang's face, which was stiff and cold due to the stuffiness and fatigue, finally showed a gentle smile.

The specific level of understanding of the wasteland world is probably the most detailed of the Skeleton Knights, which was prepared before the outbreak of the war. Relying on the good cooperative relationship that continued from the old era and the deacon who was valued by President Josephine, Liu Yuchen did not know the detailed topographic distribution map stored in each association computer, but analyzed from the trade structure and routes of the surrounding people and the large and small forces. Even in the vast medium and heavy radiation areas, there are also light radiation areas scattered. Moreover, as time goes by, and no one dares to explore in depth, the scope of these areas is likely to be still expanding.

The desolate brain entered a short period of excitement stimulated by unexpected news. This short-lived thinking could not become the dominant ruler of Lin Xiang's brain, and soon he returned to silence.

Radiation is just a criterion for judging whether humans can enter.

The most important thing is whether there is water in this area? Can necessary agricultural farming be carried out?

The sunset was setting, and the gray twilight had gradually descended to the wilderness. Guided by several sharp and high-power lights at the front, two off-road vehicles roared and cut through the deep darkness and rushed forward at fearless speed.

The yellow afterglow of the sunset slowly disappeared from the edge of the horizon, which remained in the sky, reflecting a fuzzy outline composed of countless buildings.

There was once a densely populated city. Now it has long become a terrifying ruin filled with death rays.

Lin Xiang held the steering wheel tightly and stepped on the accelerator's feet without any intention of relaxing. The uneven road surface caused the rapidly incoming car body to produce strong shocks. Whenever this happened, he would subconsciously turn his head and look at the radiation detector held by the soldier in the passenger seat.

The vibration of the car body also affects the accuracy of the pointer. It has been shaking from side to side. Although the swing amplitude varies with the bumps and fluctuations of the road, the range representing the exact index has completely shifted the green square and rushed into the yellow area. The moving pointer, like a violent mental patient, also jumped wildly, and between the two readings "140" and "190", it was like hormones, twitching, and trembling.

Visually, the blurred outline of the city ruins in the distance is about nine kilometers.

The convoy had completely left the light radiation zone and entered a moderate range filled with a large number of death rays.

"Your Excellency, isn't that our judgment wrong?" The soldier holding the detector turned his head and asked nervously.

Lin Xiang, with a gloomy face, stared at the white lines that were constantly retreating on the road in front of him, shook his head, his soft lips slightly opened, and he spit out three firm and unquestionable words.

"impossible----"

At 6:34 pm, a soldier was urinating next to the collapsed highway pedal, and by chance, he found two clear footprints.

It was the exit of an abandoned old drainage pipe. Due to the low and concave terrain, there were dense shrubs above the surface. A shallow pit with an area of ​​five to six square meters next to the pipe mouth was still a thin layer of mud. Nearby, there could be seen rags of original colors, dirty and smelly red plastic films, and floating oil stains with bright green and dark light on the surface. Next to all these relics of the old civilization era, there were more than a dozen chaotic footprints alternately. Most of them overlapped together, making it difficult to tell whether it was a human or a beast. There were only two clear footprints near the periphery of the pool, one with neat grid-like patterns, and the other with a wavy rough hard line.

Among all living things on earth, only humans have the habit of wearing shoes.

The footprints should not be left for a long time, and the most concave part of the bottom layer even contains a little water accumulation caused by squeezing. According to the strong evaporation effect of sunlight and hot climate, they will not last more than two hours at most.

Starting from the city of New Alessandro until now, the convoy has been following the old highway. Along the way, the soldiers in the back seat of the car were using tactical telescopes to observe all doubtful targets. Apart from the visual error caused by terrain obstacles, the naked eye observation radius is about three to five kilometers. In some areas with gentle terrain, the observation radius can even reach about ten kilometers. In other words, if there are really human habitation in the travel area, the traces of activity will not be hidden from their eyes.

Lin Xiang did not release the energy of consciousness for the most careful detection. It would take a considerable amount of physical strength and energy. The farthest distance of consciousness detection should not last more than two hours at most. Otherwise, the nerve center that exceeds the load will cause a series of direct physiological reactions such as vertigo, nausea, vomiting, and mental distress.

"So it's not a mob?"

After a moment of silence, the soldiers raised another possibility again.

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xiang had already raised his foot and stepped on the brakes hard. With the sharp rubber tires, a huge inertia pushed the vehicle body forward for more than ten meters before he stopped steadily in the middle of the road with the shocking black drag marks on the ground.

The second car stopped immediately afterwards. The major and two fully armed soldiers, with a surprised expression, pushed open the door, jumped out of the off-road vehicle, and strode towards Lin Xiang, who had already left the cab and stood on the side of the road.

The sky was completely dark and there was no light. Even the blurred city contour line on the edge of the horizon completely disappeared. Only waves of roars from the ruins in the distance meant hunger or anger.

"It's not a mob. They can't live in such a close place to the ruins."

Looking at the dark wilderness that was as dark as ink, Lin Xiang thoughtfully twisted his hair that had just grown to the ears, frowned, and said to himself: "It has entered the moderate radiation area, or even approached the severe area. Without radiation-resistant agents, ordinary people cannot survive, let alone live. Could it be an exploration team sent by other forces?"

"No, it's not right————"

In less than three seconds, Lin Xiang had completely overturned the conclusion he had just made: "Since he was an explorer, he should carry enough supplies. If he was not thirsty and desperate, even a mob would not drink the dirty contaminated liquid or, I was wrong? They did not take water for water, but they appeared there by chance for some other reason. But who would it be in such a place?"

No one answered——There are too few clues available, and there is no definite answer to this question.

However, the reality is very clear, and everyone clearly sees the two footprints.

Only humans will leave such traces

"Bang----"

Suddenly, the dark wilderness was filled with shocking gunfire. Then, two dazzling flames suddenly lit up at the northeast of the highway. They only existed for a few seconds, and were forcibly concealed by some force. After a moment, they were ignited again. In this short period of time, no more than five seconds, the air still contained dull heat, mixed with crazy and hysterical shouts, unique screams and crying of women, and the crisp sound of hard objects like bones being bitten.

"Get on the bus quickly————”

Lin Xiang's rapid command was instantly covered by the violent and arrogant roar of the car engine. His body suddenly retreated a few meters in the direction of turning. The transmission bearing pulled the four wheels to rotate rapidly, making a squeaky "squeak" twist sound on the hard road surface, roaring down the roadbed, and running towards the source of wail and furious sound that erupted at the same time.

The strong smell of blood can already be smelled in the air.

The endless night was immediately cut by the sharp white light at the front of the car body. Under the light that was even brighter than the sun, more than ten giant rats with a length of more than two meters appeared at the end of the darkness. These mutant creatures with short pointed feet and sharp fangs extending from the outside of their lips were roaring at the three men and women surrounded by clusters, and roaring in a low voice. The tips of the toes and the sharp curved hook claws pulled the sand on the ground hard, marking out a series of chaos, deep and shocking traces.

The consciousness energy released by Lin Xiang detected a total of five people. Together with the backs of the rat group, three men and women formed a battle formation with the character "全" lie on the ground. Their weapons were very simple, and the woman and one of the men held torches, as well as a pitcher made of threaded steel bars everywhere in the ruins, and a hammer-shaped nail rod transformed with a baseball bat. As for the man standing in the middle, he held a machete in his left trunk that could be pulled out at any time, held a simple gunpowder gun in his left hand, and was shaking a rope from the muzzle and stuffing a gunpowder and sand bullet into it with his right hand.

"kill----"

Lin Xiang's face showed a hideous smile. The cold and cruel command was quickly transmitted to every soldier's ears by the individual combo. Blue veins floated on his hands, holding the steering wheel, and stomped on the accelerator hard. The huge mechanical energy made the people sitting in the car suddenly feel like pushing their backs. The off-road vehicle was like an ancient tyrannosaurus who woke up from the sleep. In an extremely arrogant and fierce posture, it rushed into the group of rats that were retracted by the light, and knocked down more than ten meters away from the closest distance, and drew a long parabola in the light and shadow, with the smelly dirty blood flying all over the sky.

"Dadadadada————"

The heavy machine gun mounted on the roof of the car ejected a bunch of bullets of amazing speed. Behind the bullet marks dragging the eye-catching light in the night sky was a tongue of flame extending one meter outward. The powerful bullet easily tear open the fragile body of the giant rat and flew out with large pieces of flesh or internal organs. In an instant, a spacious enough passage was already between the front of the front of the car and the trapped person.

The two off-road vehicles were bypassed from left and right, and drove away the gathering giant rats. These ferocious mutant creatures seemed to have no idea what fear was. They might be because they were unwilling to give up the fresh meat that was about to come. They jumped over the ragged corpses of their companions, opened their fangs of amazing length, and rushed towards the sudden appearance of the siege and killer.

I still have a lot of feelings, so let’s take a look at the other popular chapters!
