Looking around, all that could be seen was endless ruins and yellow sand, and Yang Cheng couldn't help but frown.
The mission was to destroy the heart of the tower, and putting aside the difficulty, the real problem was where the tower was. The system had even sent him to a deserted area.
At this point, Yang Cheng finally realized the importance of improving his status in the cycle of reincarnation.
Back in the Great Zhou Dynasty, if he had been just an ordinary江湖人 (jianghu person, a person who travels the martial arts world), he would have had to first infiltrate the imperial court and then climb the ranks step by step.
However, by elevating his status, he became a constable of the imperial court, which made things much easier.
In this world, he was just a wandering vagabond, unable to even find the tower, essentially lost from the very beginning.
However, Yang Cheng wasn't too flustered.
This mission was very lenient, with no deadline, and Yang Cheng was well prepared.
The water and food in his storage space were enough for him to live on for several months.
The location indicated that this place was east of the Dark Desert, so the western side should be the Dark Desert as well. Therefore, Yang Cheng randomly chose to head north.
Along the way, there were countless ruins and buildings, but apart from some sand scorpions and lizards, Yang Cheng did not see any living creatures.
Just then, a whooshing sound suddenly came.
Yang Chengmeng tilted his head slightly, and a sniper bullet struck an abandoned car behind him, exploding instantly and blasting the car away.
Feeling the aftershocks of the explosion, Yang Cheng frowned slightly.
This sniper rifle is abnormally powerful; not only is it highly penetrating, but it can even explode, making it almost like a small cannonball.
The roar of engines could be heard from ahead, accompanied by the deafening sound of exploding gunfire.
A multi-purpose armored off-road vehicle sped across the desert, pursued closely by three armored vehicles.
Compared to the high-tech multi-functional armored vehicle in front, the three vehicles behind look rather odd.
They used to be ordinary off-road vehicles, but now they have spiked blades on the sides of the rims. You can imagine that being slid over by those things must be like being in a meat grinder.
Submachine guns and rocket launchers were mounted on the roof of the vehicle, and a group of strange-looking guys were excitedly roaring and pouring firepower at the armored vehicle.
Yang Cheng's statement that these people were strangely shaped was not meant to slander them, but rather that these guys did indeed look somewhat inhuman.
The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty
Some were completely pale and hairless, resembling vengeful ghosts.
Some of them have rows of eyes on their heads, resembling humanoid spiders.
Some even have four hands, allowing them to simultaneously control two heavy machine guns with an extremely high rate of fire.
Yang Cheng roughly guessed who they were.
Mutants in the apocalypse.
After the apocalypse, the sun emitted abnormal rays, and the genes of people exposed to these rays underwent some degree of mutation.
Some people gained extremely powerful abilities after the mutation, but others were transformed into half-monsters, ugly and twisted.
Although these mutants are terrifying and ugly in appearance, they are very strong and have even greater firepower.
In particular, the pale-faced, hairless guy had a mental strength that was clearly different from ordinary people. His sniper rifle almost never missed, and after a few shots, he destroyed the energy system of the armored vehicle, forcing it to stop.
Five soldiers climbed out of the armored vehicle and continued to fight back, relying on the vehicle for cover.
But they were all shot in the head and killed one by one by the sniper, until only one woman with blonde hair and wearing a camouflage uniform remained.
The woman appeared to be of mixed Asian and European descent, with a high nose bridge, beautiful features, and a combination of the charm unique to Europeans and the subtle refinement of Asians.
"Tony, stop! Don't kill her!"
Look at how big her butt is, how delicate her skin is, she definitely hasn't been exposed to radiation, and she's still fertile!
Capture her and hand her over to Black Jack; we could at least get ten liters of pure water and ten kilograms of ammunition in return!
The mutant with four arms quickly stopped the pale-faced sniper.
The woman held only a pitiful little pistol in her hand. Her face was pale as she pulled out a grenade the size of an egg, gleaming with a silvery-white metallic sheen, and shouted:
"Don't come any closer! I'm not with the mercenary squad, I'm a captain in the Tower Guardians!"
"If you dare touch me, the Guardian Legion will wipe you out!"
The four-armed mutant suddenly burst into maniacal laughter.
"They're actually natives of the tower! That means we can get an extra ten kilograms of ammunition!"
"Tony, switch to a jamming grenade and shoot the toy out of that girl's hand!"
Sniper Tony's voice was hoarse: "Boss, there's a savage roaming around 500 yards away watching us."
"That nasty hyena! Kill him!"
