012
It is now the 126th year of the New Calendar. As the population increases, the four major bases are also slowly expanding outwards.
If you want to expand your base, you must first expand the safe zone around the base.
The standard for a safe zone is that there are no mutant creatures, including alien beasts, bugs, and mutant plants.
Grass roots, grass seeds and insect eggs need to be sprayed continuously by the authorities to kill them, which takes more than ten years. Building a full circle of isolation walls is also a major project, so the safety zones of major bases are still limited.
Outside the safe zone is the danger zone, and the further away from the base, the more dangerous it becomes.
Superpower users will take on tasks corresponding to dangerous areas according to their own levels to ensure maximum safety. However, alien beasts and insects are all active and will occasionally break through official monitoring and wander around. Once high-level alien beasts move into low-level dangerous areas, Safety incidents are bound to occur.
The aircraft was too large and heavy, and its speed slowed down relatively. After landing twice to let the E-class and D-class mercenaries leave, more than twenty minutes passed. At seven o'clock in the morning, the aircraft landed on time at the last place of this outing. Stop: Gold Market.
Jin City is the center of the C-level dangerous area in the south of the southeast base. C-level mercenaries will do tasks in this area. A-level and B-level mercenaries basically have their own transportation tools. After an hour's ride on the base, they will "take advantage of the wind" , he was about to drive away to a higher-level danger zone further away.
Just as Xu Qiao was about to unbuckle his seat belt, a familiar mechanical voice sounded above his head: "The aircraft will return at four in the afternoon. Please board the ship on time. It won't be too late."
"You can light a flare when you encounter a mutant creature above C level. Patrols We will go immediately, but we may not be able to arrive in time, please try your best to save yourself."
The announcement was repeated three times and the hatch was opened.
The four people's seats were relatively close to the cabin door, and they were also the first batch of C-class mercenaries to leave the aircraft.
Xu Qiao and Meng Li walked side by side in front.
The dust stirred up by the landing of the aircraft has not yet completely settled, blurring the bright morning light like a mist. The remains of huge and dilapidated buildings are scattered in the distance, and there are ruins everywhere as far as the field of vision can be seen.
Accompanied by a sudden roar, modified off-road vehicles or armored vehicles drove out of the hatches in areas A and B of the aircraft one after another, carrying away the dust along the way.
There are C-level mercenaries who are still watching with envy, and there are also experienced C-level mercenaries who remind their companions: "Leave quickly, otherwise the nearby alien beasts and insects will surround you later."
No matter what level of mutated creatures , it is extremely difficult to deal with them once they get together.
Sun Fushan winked at his teammates and took the lead to walk to the southwest.
In fact, Sun Fushan wanted Qin Chi, the oldest, to be responsible for conducting the mission, but this good-tempered teacher Qin was a lazy man and refused the job without negotiation. Meng Li was too cold, and Xu Qiao was easy to talk to. But Xu Qiao was a therapist, so how could he let the therapist rush to the front?
There was no other way, Sun Fushan could only continue to perform the duties of a captain.
There are various tasks in the C-level dangerous area, including digging abandoned buildings to collect usable resources and killing strange beasts.
The former is commonly known as the "garbage man". It takes too long and the harvest depends on luck, but it is relatively safe to stay in the abandoned city. The latter saves time and effort, and the risk of being killed by alien animals is also higher.
Meng Li didn't like digging up garbage, and Qin Chi didn't want to be a "garbage worker" at first glance. Sun Huashan's purpose of abandoning his bodyguards to form a team was to improve his combat effectiveness.
The healer completely follows his teammates in the combat department, but Xu Qiao also prefers the task of killing strange beasts, especially when his teammates are reliable.
There were more than a thousand C-level mercenaries, and everyone dispersed in different directions. After about half an hour, there were no other mercenaries behind the four of them.
Sun Fushan opened the map he carried with him, pointed to a mountainous area in the southwest of Jin City and asked, "Here?"
Meng Li said, "Run over there?"
Sun Fushan said, a little proud and a little embarrassed: "I have a car. Meng Li
: "..."
Sun Fushan turned around and released the off-road vehicle from the space crystal core. It was painted in dark green camouflage and had five seats in two rows.
Qin Chi smiled and said: "Not bad."
Xu Qiao teased Sun Fushan: "If you had listed this condition when recruiting team members, you would have been full."
After leaving the base, the communication bracelet only has the function of displaying the time. Sun Fushan expressed his meaning as concisely as possible: "For, for equipment, and as a person, it is different."
What he wants is teammates who appreciate his personal strength and don't mind his stuttering.
Sun Fushan was the driver, and when Xu Qiao walked to the back seat, Meng Li took the initiative to follow him. When Qin Chi saw him, he sat in the passenger seat so that Sun Fushan could concentrate on driving and he was alert to the road ahead.
Under normal circumstances, there are basically no high-level mutant organisms in the C-level dangerous areas that have been cleared and inspected by the authorities, so the noise reduction of off-road vehicles will not attract powerful opponents, but the smooth cement roads of the old era have long It was completely destroyed, leaving only the dirt road trampled by supernatural beings or beasts, so the off-road vehicle drove bumpily for almost an hour before reaching the foot of a mountain.
The vegetation at the foot of the mountain was not dense. Sun Fushan put away the car and took the lead as usual. Xu Qiao followed him. Meng Li and Qin Chi were two steps behind. They followed Sun Fushan on the left and right in a triangular formation. Protect the therapist Xu Qiao in the middle.
Due to his personality and the environment, no one in the team spoke, and it became a veritable "silence is golden".
This place was originally a scenic spot. There was a towering boulder standing outside the gate of the scenic spot. The colorful name of the scenic spot that was once engraved on it had been washed away by more than a hundred years of rain, leaving only the letters with the same color as the boulder.
There is a large deep pit on both sides of the boulder that can bury four people. There should be two mutant trees growing there, which have been taken care of by the guards.
Sun Fushan walked to the pit and looked inside. At this moment, a gray beast as big as a basketball jumped out and went straight to Sun Fushan's face.
Xu Qiao's heart shrank, and the next second, a brown earthen slab slightly larger than the gray beast appeared out of thin air and stood in front of Sun Fushan, accompanied by the sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh and blood.
It turned out that the back side of the soil slab was flat, but the other side was covered with sharp soil thorns, and the gray mutant rat directly hit the thorns.
The earthen slab disappeared, and Sun Fushan quickly dug out the D-class crystal core of the mutated rat. At least he could sell some points.
Xu Qiao looked at Meng Li. Sun Fushan might not have noticed that she just caught a glimpse of a fiery red light shooting towards the mutant rat, and then quickly disappeared halfway.
Meng Li pursed her lips, as if she was annoyed that she had done something unnecessary.
The newly formed team naturally needs time to get familiar with each other and get used to each other. Xu Qiao suggested: "Next time a strange beast appears, let Meng Li take action. Next time it's Qin Chi's turn, you three should first familiarize yourself with each other's attack speed and strength?" "
Sun Fushan nodded repeatedly.
The four of them continued walking inside.
The second attack encountered came from a Trachelospermia vine growing up the mountain wall. The vines were only as thick as chopsticks, and they looked like unmutated Traspermia vines. But just as the four of them walked past the mountain wall seemingly unprepared, one of the vines suddenly flew up in the air, revealing that it had become a vine that had been clinging to the wall before. The other side of blood red.
Three tentacles branched out from the top of the vine, heading straight for the nearest Meng Li.
This sneak attack was sudden and silent. Sun Fushan and Xu Qiao were not aware of it. Only Qin Chi turned his head slightly and glanced.
Meng Li, who was under attack, noticed the sound of breaking wind, and three lines of fire as thick as his thumb quickly wrapped around the three tentacles of the vine.
Trachelospermum was in pain and shrank back suddenly, but the three lines of fire were still wrapped around the vines and burning quietly.
The Trastellite Vine urged other vines to extinguish the line of fire, but the line of fire suddenly grew in size and burned the mountain wall into a sea of flames.
At this time, the four-person team had all turned around to watch the battle.
Sun Fushan's eyes lit up: "C-level Trachelospermum!"
He has gained something just after coming here. It seems that he has chosen a good place!
After the Trachelospermum vine completely lost its vitality, Meng Li held the main vine with one hand and pulled hard, grabbing the main root, which was as thick as an arm and more than two meters long. Although this taproot was buried in the mountain soil, it was burned to gray at this time. Meng Li raised his dagger and slashed it. The root was like a cooked yam split in two, revealing the light green crystal core that had nowhere to hide. .
Meng Li didn't take a second look and handed it directly to captain Sun Fushan.
Sun Fushan smiled and said: "Continue, there are still nineteen more to go!".
It is difficult for carnivorous mutated creatures to resist the temptation of prey. When Xu Qiao and the others walked into the forest, their breath spread in the wind, and nearby The alien beasts and insects with a keen sense of smell took the initiative to come closer.
A sad cry came from mid-air. Xu Qiao raised his head and saw a shadow like a small airplane coming quickly towards this side.
Sun Fushan said nervously: "Snake eagle!"
Snake eagles are common birds of prey in the mountains and forests of the southeastern base. The mutated C-class snake eagle can spread its wings up to three meters, and a pair of sharp claws can catch Sun Fushan high in the air.
Most of the flying alien beasts are good at speed, and they are a difficult type that can escape even though they can't defeat the supernatural beings.
Fire defeats wood. It is relatively easy for Meng Li to deal with C-level mutant plants. However, C-level alien beasts have strong body defenses, and it takes several precise attacks to break through the defense. The snake eagle can hide so fast, and it may be difficult to kill it with Meng Li alone. .
It was even more difficult for Sun Fushan's earth power to kill the snake eagle, so Sun Fushan turned his hopeful eyes to Qin Chi.
Meng Li was also very aware of how difficult the snake eagle was to deal with, and asked Qin Chi: "Will you and I join forces?"
The advantage of the wind power lies in control, which is slightly inferior to the fire power in terms of attack strength.
Qin Chi nodded.
Xu Qiao watched silently.
The snake eagle jumped into the air and liked to eat meat. Sun Huashan, who was not wearing a helmet and had a chubby face, became its first prey.
The long and sharp eagle eyes ignored the other three people, and the snake eagle pounced on Sun Fushan at a faster speed.
When the distance was only one meter, the sudden wind blew the huge snake sculpture three meters away.
The snake eagle, which has never failed to fly in the wind: "..."
Before the stunned snake eagle could react, three fist-sized fireballs hit the snake eagle's neck one after another. After three consecutive explosions, the snake eagle split into two. After falling from a high place, the aroma of barbecue suddenly appeared around him.
Sun Fushan's eyes were as bright as fire, and he resisted not to jump up!
The family didn't dare to let him go out by himself. Look, his teammates were hunting C-level beasts for fun!
He happily went to dispose of the body of the snake eagle. Meng Li looked at Qin Chi and praised: "You have a strong ability to control wind."
Her previous team also had a wind power user, but he could only control small supernatural powers at most. The beast's movements simply cannot blow such a large snake eagle that far.
Qin Chi said modestly: "I have used it for ten years and I have become proficient."
Sun Fushan, who was about to cut the head of the snake eagle, suddenly turned around and asked: "How about your wind and wind blade?"
Qin Chi understood what he meant and controlled the wind. Move the snake eagle's head over, and then control another wind blade to cut out the crystal core three times.
Sun Fushan was so impressed that he said, "It's so fast!" So strong!
Meng Li was equally impressed, but his mood was not as outgoing as Sun Fushan's.
Qin Chi smiled lightly and looked at the team of therapists who were fully armed and even their heads were well protected.
Both teammates had expressed their appreciation, so of course Xu Qiao had to praise her, just like Qin Chi followed Sun Fushan and Meng Li in praising her cute spirit and body.
"It's very powerful, and I've never seen anyone who can cut the core as elegantly as you."
The core is equal to the task and points. The higher the level, the more valuable it is. The mercenaries dig the core with one hand on the alien beast. He held a knife in one hand and it was covered in blood.
Qin Chi was different. His wind blade was invisible. The moment he dug out the crystal core, the wind wiped away the blood on it.
The unusual compliment surprised Qin Chi. After thinking about it, he explained with a smile: "Maybe I'm not used to scenes that are too brutal and bloody."
At least in front of the three young people, Qin Chi didn't want to show any bloodthirsty, Signs of brutality.
Xu Qiao nodded, which was in line with his usual style.
Meng Li heard it, but seemed not to hear it, mainly because he didn't care about these details.
But Sun Fushan thought of the mutated rat that had been turned into a blood hedgehog by his soil nail board. Wouldn't Qin's teammate not like that it was so bloody?
