Chapter 71 Weird Scene
I don’t know what Zhou Zixi and his other subordinates said, but they were very happy on the way out of the town.
After coming out, the people who stayed outside seemed to realize that this trip had yielded a lot of rewards and repeatedly asked for details. However, there were many things that even the people in the town didn't know, so how could they tell?
But no matter how many questions others had, the group was very lucky and no one was lost. They finally completed the mission and embarked on the journey home.
If it can be called home.
However, compared to the calm situation when we came, an accident happened when we were still dozens of minutes away from reaching the base.
"What's going on?"
Gu Chao pressed the intercom and asked about the military off-road vehicle that suddenly stopped in front.
"The tire is flat. Something might be wrong. Be careful."
Gu Chao frowned. Military off-road vehicle tires can also leak air?
I'm afraid it's not an accident.
He pressed the headset, "Old Cheng, what's going on?"
Cheng Ming, who was in the car behind, looked puzzled and replied, "What's going on? Something happened? Why did you brake so suddenly?"
"No one around?"
"No. I've been watching. What's wrong?"
Gu Chao narrowed his eyes slightly and did not rush to get off the car. This trick was very familiar to him, but the situation was a little unexpected.
The group waited for a while, but nothing happened.
strangeness.
Zhou Zixi stuck his head out, glanced at the ground in confusion, opened the door and walked down.
Gu Chao saw it, opened the door and got out of the car. He walked forward and saw Zhou Zixi squatting down.
"Exploding nails."
Gu Chao looked at what Zhou Zixi was holding in his hand and said something in understanding.
This kind of nail inserted into the tire can cause the tire to explode instantly and leak all the air in a short period of time.
There are quite a few of them on the ground, and they appear right in the middle of the road. It is definitely not a coincidence.
It seems that someone is blocking the road here.
However, there was no one around, and Gu Chao trusted Cheng Ming's judgment.
He tilted his head to look at both sides of the road.
This road is a two-lane Class IV highway with rolling low hills on the left and dense forests on the right.
If someone had been lying in wait here... then...
Gu Chao opened his eyes, took a few steps back, exerted force with his legs, and jumped high after a running start. His black boots tapped a few times on the protruding soil, and with a leap he climbed up the hillside on the left which was more than four meters high.
Many people habitually think that the woods are the best places for ambush. In fact, the terrain in the woods is low, making it difficult to hide. There are many snakes, insects, rats and ants, and it is easy to arouse the vigilance of passing drivers. If the people in the car are armed, it is even more dangerous. Only novices or people without weapons will do this.
The situation is different on the hillside. The view is wide and the driver is in a high position, which is very safe. In addition, with weapons such as guns and arrows, he can easily get rid of the driver who gets out of the car to check.
Sure enough, as soon as he came up, he saw messy footprints, guns and bloodstains on the ground of the slope.
The scene was in a mess, and it seemed that there had been a fierce battle.
"Old Cheng, come up."
When Cheng Ming heard this, he climbed up easily and knew what he was needed to do at a glance.
He squatted down, picked up a little of the bright red blood on the ground with his fingers, sniffed it, and said, "Human blood, medium-speed, splattering, arterial blood. Judging by the shape, it seems to have been caused by a long, sharp cut. There are traces of wiping or dragging. There are approximately two casualties, and the time of death was approximately two hours."
Only two people in ambush?
Or were the remaining people captured along with the injured?
Black eating black?
Was there another gang that was intercepted and then killed these robbers?
Gu Chao looked around and found three types of bullet casings of different calibers.
It matched the type of gun that was discarded at the site.
If he was captured, why did those people leave behind guns with ammunition?
There are many doubts.
The two men came down and told Zhou Zixi this information.
Zhou Zixi pondered for a moment. The situation was unclear. He didn't know whether the group was good or bad, or whether they were nearby. Gu Chao and the others clearly didn't want to get involved in this matter. The soldiers under his command were also in poor condition. It was not a good time to meddle in other people's business.
But in a moment, he made a decision.
"Change the tire and we'll set off immediately."
The other two nodded and returned to the car to wait.
Lu Ming, who had taken the opportunity to walk his dog, came back and asked, "What happened?"
Gu Chao told the people in the car the information he had just checked. Lu Ming felt a sense of familiarity after hearing it. He was just trying to figure out the reason when he heard Yan Wei say, "Isn't that good? The other group might be righteous men like us, here to eliminate harm for the people."
is that so?
Although Lu Ming felt it was a little strange, he didn't think about it anymore and put it behind him.
----------------
A few days later.
The Chaoyang team sat around in the living room, looking at a box of crystals on the table in amazement.
“There are so many of them!”
This number probably means that the zombies discovered the existence of crystals as early as when they first evolved, and have been saving them ever since.
Although the zombies have been strengthened twice now, and there are many more first- and second-level evolved zombies, except for the special-powered zombies that are 100% likely to produce crystals, the crystallization rate of ordinary evolved zombies is still very low. It takes about 10 to dig out 100 of them. Here is a box of crystals of various sizes, and it is definitely not all they have, which means they have killed at least tens of thousands of evolved zombies in the past three months.
No wonder Zhou Zixi's ability could be upgraded to the late second stage without them knowing how to use the crystal, and the levels of others were not low either. It seemed that this was the result of hard combat.
Lu Ming snorted softly, "They are quite clever."
Most of the crystals delivered were transparent crystals for the strength and speed systems, while the rare ones such as the dark blue lightning system, the purple spirit system, and the light blue ice system were pitifully rare. Moreover, they were all below the third level, with only dozens of the second level, and the rest were all first-level crystals.
As for their team, there is no need to mention Lin Cong and Lu Ming. The others are not even at the second level, let alone the first level, and their role is almost useless.
Fortunately, she cheated him out of some money when exchanging supplies with him, otherwise they would have suffered a loss.
After the crystals were divided, the transparent ones all went into Lu Ming's pocket, and the others were divided according to color. Poor Cheng Ming only got three small crystals, and Gu Chao... was still the only ordinary person in the team.
But he was not in a hurry at all, because he could feel that some changes were taking place in his body, and he might be just a little bit away from awakening his superpowers.
Lu Ming was happy. She fed most of the crystals into the space. Seeing that the land in the space expanded from twelve pieces to twenty pieces, she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
However, the space still has not been upgraded. She wants to know how much more crystal space she needs to contribute to have the healing function. After all, as the zombie level becomes higher and higher, the frequency of injuries has suddenly increased recently. She really doesn't want to feel the fear of being dominated by alcohol and iodine again.
What’s annoying is the rule of independent killing. She didn’t get any gold coins when the eyeless zombie died before, otherwise she would have enough money to buy a set of nano protective suit.
pit!
