Chapter 480: Liu Rui Goes Alone
"Each vehicle is equipped with weapons for you. Each person is equipped with two crystal core guns and a crystal core rocket launcher with ten crystal cores. This will ensure that you will have backup when you encounter danger on the road. Check yourselves and replace any damaged ones in advance."
"It is estimated that the journey will take a day. The restaurant will prepare fast food tomorrow morning. Everyone will take turns to eat at that time. There will be no parking."
Zhuang Mingxu said as he took them to the yard to check where the guns were stored in the cars. The few cars he saw immediately shocked him and he was unable to utter a word for a long time.
The two vehicles that came with them have now become six, three of which are five-meter-long trucks. These were left behind by Lu Weiyi when he discovered that they had purchased a lot of supplies. Even so, the nearly four-meter-high bindings on the trucks still made Zhuang Mingxu speechless.
"Brothers, do you think the tire will burst if we keep going this way?"
Several grown men touched their foreheads and felt a little embarrassed. They all had their own teams under them, and buying things was naturally a need for the team.
"Unload some of it. Our underground passage is now open. Most of this time it's for testing. If it explodes in the middle, it will cause trouble for everyone."
“…”
“…”
A few people looked at each other quietly, no one said anything, and no one took the initiative to unload their team's things.
When they go out together, they are in a cooperative relationship. After returning to their respective teams, there is a competitive relationship between them. No one wants their equipment to lag behind others.
"Unload half of it, and each team will divide it equally according to the weight of the people. Lin Mo will supervise and complete it within half an hour," Zhuang Mingxu ordered.
"yes!"
Seeing that there was no room for change in this strong attitude, Ye Jia stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Base Commander, you see, we have already bought it, we can't just throw it away? This crystal core is really not cheap."
He showed a painful expression, but with his baby face, he looked cute and funny.
"Keep it here, and your base commander will try to bring it with you when he returns to pick up the children." Zhuang Mingxu knew that they had bought large items, and Lu Weiyi had already agreed to help with the items, so he would naturally not go back on his word just because he was on a mission.
"Long live the base commander!" Ye Jia said exaggeratedly, and gave Yu Mengchu a wink, and the two of them immediately stepped forward to dismantle the things.
The members of the other teams thanked the base commander and stopped insisting.
Zhuang Mingxu informed the location of the weapons and set the departure time for the next day. Zhuang Mingxu took the two children to spend a warm night together before the separation between father and son.
**
At four o'clock the next day, Lu Weiyi's alarm clock rang on time.
There is no distinction between day and night in this space, and the temperature is constant. Lu Weiyi was stunned for a second when he was woken up, and then he quickly washed up.
The clothes that had been washed last night were not dry yet, so Lu Weiyi changed into a new set of field combat uniforms, and his half-calf-high boots tightly wrapped up his trouser legs.
He took his combat backpack again, stuffed bread into his mouth while stuffing equipment more suitable for the environment into the backpack.
After equipping his weapons in a convenient position on his body, Lu Weiyi moved decisively to get out of the space.
Covering his whole body with divine spirit, Lu Weiyi quickly observed the surrounding environment the moment he landed. The ferocious mutant snake from yesterday was gone. Fist-sized insects were disturbed by him and observed him vigilantly. Some of them left, while others jumped towards him to attack.
The black carapace, the arm-long tentacles, and even the steel hairs on the legs can be seen clearly; the emerald green body as thick as an arm wriggles flexibly, and the feet under the body are segmented like crab feet; the money-grabbing insect waving its claws is nearly half a meter long, and it moves quickly between the branches and appears in front of you in an instant.
The hairs on his body stood up, and his mental power unconsciously formed a ball of air around him, sweeping away everything around him, immediately forming a circle of vacuum.
The dim environment, which seemed to be filled with fog, restricted the surrounding vision. If it were not for the fact that it was already dawn, one would have thought it was still the middle of the night. This made the surrounding area hazy and provided natural protection for the insects to approach.
Lu Weiyi clearly saw that after his mental power swept around, several emerald green, black and white worms fell from above his head. Although they were isolated by his mental power and fell to the ground, the limp feeling of his mental power after being touched seemed to be stimulated invisibly. He felt unwell all over and began to regret taking on this mission.
I want to go back to base...
Lu Weiyi pursed his lips and looked up at the blocked sky.
He wanted to ask Zhuang Mingxu for help. He turned the notebook he took out from the space around in his hands and put it back - Zhuang Mingxu could not help him now.
Even if he brought people to rescue, the unidentified SS-level mutant plant nearby was a time bomb that could cause the other party to follow in his footsteps at any time.
What's more, it is not so easy to avoid the mutated birds along the way. The most likely possibility is that something will happen to them halfway before they arrive.
After Lu Weiyi counted the means of transportation in his space, he had a plan in mind, but only after he found everyone and left the jungle.
The small green branch was entangled on the tree. Lu Weiyi tightened it and jumped up at the same time. By swinging, he could climb up more easily and determine the direction first.
Unexpectedly, the small green branch that was originally tightly wrapped around him suddenly slid down a section, and the tree trunk that he was originally stepping on for leverage also slipped. Lu Weiyi slammed into the tree trunk, breaking something and splashing out thick green mucus.
Lu Weiyi hissed softly and checked the small green branch he had retrieved. He found that the branch was covered with yellow-green moss, and there was an obvious concave mark where he had bumped into it before. In the middle of the mark was the corpse of an unknown fleshworm, which had turned into a piece of skin, and was surrounded by mucus that had been crushed and exploded. It was extremely disgusting.
The stomach that had just been full began to churn, and Lu Weiyi's body reflexively retched, but his mind reminded him to hold it in.
The completely opposite command made his eyes misty in a short while. He quickly returned to the space, wandered for two steps, then wrapped himself in a new set of clothes and put on a heavy mask and left the space.
With the thick moss as a burden and trees dozens of meters high, it took him a long time to climb.
When you stand on a high place and look around, you can only see lush jungle.
The rainstorm had stopped at some point, and the air was refreshing after the rain. He was in the southwest of the direction they expected to land. Going northeast, he could see the empty mountain ridge, which seemed to have been forgotten by the surrounding vegetation, forming a bald spot-like landform that appeared abruptly there, which was indescribably strange.
If he saw this scene with his own eyes, Lu Weiyi felt that Lu Xiao would definitely not agree to them setting the landing site there.
He took out the space compass, and the needle on it kept spinning in circles and couldn't stop for a long time.
Thinking of the method Xu Sa used to find the direction on the sea, Lu Weiyi looked around, but couldn't even see the stream, let alone the sea. He sighed and had to give up.
There was no sign of anyone else around, so Lu Weiyi could only walk in the agreed direction.
With the help of the small green plants, he killed the slightly larger mutant animals with a machete. With the mental power protecting him, he didn't have to worry about the flesh worms approaching. Except that the road under his feet was difficult to walk on and the trees were a little strange in shape, the danger was not that great.
Of course, this was also because he had little experience in outdoor jungle combat and did not know how to choose a better route. He stumbled while driving in a straight line, which consumed a lot of physical energy, and this also avoided the appearance of large predators.
Liu Rui, who had also been traveling all night, was not so lucky. In order to reach Xu Sa before the thunder and lightning stopped, he started fighting as soon as he landed.
Fire-based abilities were not very friendly in the rain, and since there was a jungle surrounding him, he could not use his abilities on a large scale. Most of the time he had to rely on cold weapons, hacking and slashing his way through. The machete in his hand, which had been reinforced by a metal-based ability user, became curled at the edges, and his arms began to tremble unconsciously due to overuse.
But he couldn't stop at this moment. The thunderstorm had stopped for a long time. He didn't know whether Xu Sa was still there. He was worried about missing him, so he could only force himself to speed up.
His body was covered with blood from being whipped by branches, and even his face was covered with scars. His clothes were wet from the rain and stained by sweat, which kept rubbing against the wounds. After being stung for so long, he could no longer feel where the pain was specifically. His legs felt as if they were filled with lead, and only the belief in finding Xu Sa kept him moving forward.
Suddenly, an animal roar was heard not far away, followed by a tremor in the ground. Trees were hit violently, and a huge tree like an embrace fell in his direction. Liu Rui dodged in a hurry, and faced with countless mutant animals that were more than one meter tall.
The beautiful peacock flapped its wings, and from time to time it was caught on a branch, with one or two feathers falling off. Its sharp beak was as long as its arm and opened like a hook. It is conceivable that if it was pecked, half of its arm would disappear.
Liu Rui held the machete tightly in front of him. Before he could be alert, he saw it look at him sharply and quickly ran past him. The wind blowing past him made him stagger two steps. Before he could stand firmly, the mutant crane hidden behind its wings was revealed. Its long legs were as tall as a person, its steps were incredibly large, and the feathers on its wings were half a person's length.
Soon after, there were noises of mutant animals running through the trees. Liu Rui dodged the feet of several mutant cranes and looked up. He could see a figure like a small car flashing by nimbly, and the squeaking sounds sounded particularly anxious.
No matter how short-sighted Liu Rui was, he could tell that the other party was trying to escape.
He pursed his lips and hid behind a tree as thick as his arms, looking in the direction where the noise came from. There he could only see a black bear the size of a truck confronting a monkey not much smaller than King Kong. Blood and flesh were flying everywhere, and the howls and roars were deafening. From time to time, trees appeared and tried to entangle the monkey, but were blocked by a sudden waterfall.
These are two mutant animals with super powers. Liu Rui touched his backpack and found that there were only blockers in the bag to prevent the various bases from using super power jammers. He did not bring any special super power blockers with him.
What's more, given the opponent's size, even with a shield, Liu Rui would have no chance of winning against him.
