"Report to Captain An, they are all still alive."
All five team members reported safely, which made An Yi breathe a sigh of relief. In the past, it would have been difficult to deal with team members who had been injured by dire wolves in critical parts such as legs, abdomen, eyes, etc. Those team members either died on the spot or died of injuries. In short, they disappeared one by one.
At this time, Zhou Qing said nervously: "Captain An, your arm is seriously injured and needs emergency treatment immediately."
An Yi looked at the thin Zhou Qing and smiled roughly: "Don't worry, Xiao Zhou, we pure humans have no other advantages, even if we are not afraid of viruses, it's all because of this damn immunity that we can't evolve and become stronger."
Lao Kang patted An Yi's shoulder from behind and said seriously: "Xiao Zhou is really worried about you. Lao An, please stop joking. Everyone knows that what we are afraid of is not viruses, but mutated bacteria."
The other team members also nodded. Their injuries were not serious. Instead, they relied on their physical strength to fight at the front line. Captain An, who was protecting the team members, was the most seriously injured.
An Yi still smiled, he was in pain, but as a manly man and the leader of the team, he needed to reassure everyone. He believed that he would deal with it immediately after returning, and with his luck, he would not be infected by the mutated bacteria.
When it was time to clean up the mess, An Yi was strongly asked by Zhou Qing to help him back. He hadn't gone ten meters when suddenly the mercenary team members who were dragging the corpse of the dire wolf outside the iron gate let out a shocked shout.
"Who are you and why are you here?"
An Yi frowned when he heard this, human? Out in the wilderness? Immediately he heard the young and clear voice of the stranger outside the door.
"Can I come in?"
Is it a child? An Yi could hear the tenderness behind her voice. This tenderness seemed to have gone through wind and rain, and had some roughness that age could not bring. An Yi gently pushed Zhou Qing away and walked to the iron gate.
"Who?" he said, and then he saw a 1.8-meter-tall young man.
The young man was wearing a woven rattan cloak, carrying a bulging luggage, and a long object wrapped in animal skin. Even though his face was stained with dust, it could not hide his overall whiteness. His facial features were straight and three-dimensional, with a full charm. His big eyes were like deep and beautiful obsidian, reflecting himself in the eyes.
The boy was so incredibly handsome that even a vase couldn't match him, because his broad and powerful shoulders visibly held up the clothes on his shoulders, and the palms exposed outside the cloak were full of rough marks; the boy stood there without swaying, standing still. Ruzhong has a lot of momentum, which is completely different from those weak and weak guys in the safe zone.
What's even more strange about An Yi is that this boy came from the wilderness. A few minutes ago, there were 15 dire wolves in the wilderness outside the safe zone, but he was safe and sound. And at this moment, near a pile of bloody dire wolf corpses, this boy who looked like he was only 16 years old had no fear at all in his eyes
The cold north wind blew from outside the iron gate of the safety zone. It was getting late, and the gradually lowering temperature eroded the remaining heat of the human body. Outside the iron gate was obviously not a good place to talk. An Yi looked at the young man from the wilderness and let him enter the safe zone.
"The safe area is not something you can just enter if you want. To ensure public security, we need to check your belongings." An Yi stretched out his palm and said to Wu Qi.
Wu Qi looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of him from the beginning to the end, who seemed to be the leader, standing in the center of a group of gunmen. Strictly speaking, this was the first time he had seen a human being except Ruorong in nine years. The similar appearance and similar smell to himself allowed Wu Qi, who had a keen sense of smell, to smell a smell that did not belong to the mountains and wilderness.
Wu Qi nodded, took the bag off his back and placed it on the ground. He opened the bag's opening, and a gentle whimper came from the bag. It was obviously the sound of some kind of animal, and all the mercenaries immediately became alert.
Wu Qi rubbed his cold hands, and after generating some heat, he reached into his bag and took out a small red fox that was as wide as an arm. The red fox's limbs were obediently hugged on Wu Qi's solid arms, and its bright red and soft fur rhymed slightly in the breeze. It licked Wu Qi's chin with its tongue like a little cub attached to its mother, and rubbed it with its furry tail. On the back of his hand, his two small, round eyes blinked. After showing an affectionate look to Wu Qi, he turned his head to observe the surroundings.
The smell of the humans around him was different from Wu Qi's. It was a strange and dangerous smell. The external environment was not as warm as the inside of the suitcase, and the strong smell of blood and gunpowder smoke made its nose very uncomfortable. Red Fox Qiyue bared his teeth at An Yi and others, and his unfriendly warning was particularly obvious.
"Is this a red fox?" An Yi and others were surprised. They felt more and more mysterious about this young man from the wilderness. In this day and age, it is difficult for humans to protect themselves, and there is no room left to raise pets. Moreover, mutated animals are powerful and wild, and the possibility of being domesticated is extremely low.
"It's called Qiyue, and it's my pet. You don't have to worry about it hurting you." Wu Qi stroked Qiyue's soft back. His steady breathing and constant temperature gave Qiyue a signal of safety. As if he understood what Wu Qi meant, he put away his exposed teeth, calmed down, and climbed onto Wu Qi's shoulder to stay.
In such a scene, Rao Anyi's thirty-two-year-old experience was also shocked. At this time Lao Kang shouted for An Yi.
"Captain, look, this boy's luggage is full of fine animal skins and mutated animal body materials!"
This statement alarmed the others, and everyone's curiosity was ignited, and they all looked into the luggage. It contained valuable materials such as the animal skins that Wu Qigang had stripped off the Crocodile Tiger Dragon, as well as animal skin carpets that had been stepped on for several years. Wu Qi probably knew that these things had value, but he never expected that these people would be so surprised.
An Yi rubbed the warm and tough surface of the animal skin, and was convinced that it was definitely the fur of a ferocious carnivorous mutated animal, and it was definitely not ripped off from a beast the size of a dire wolf. He just wanted to continue exploring the true identity of the animal skin, A white and rough palm inserted from outside the field of vision, grabbed the strap of the luggage, and pulled the entire luggage back.
Wu Qi put on a cold face of resistance, and his voice was like the beating of beautiful jade covered with a layer of frost: "I only asked you to check whether it is safe, but I don't allow you to check so carefully."
An Yi retracted his hand angrily, becoming even more curious about Wu Qi's origins. He pointed at the long object wrapped in animal skin behind Wu Qi and asked, "What is that?"
"It's a knife."
A mercenary team member went around Wu Qi's back, knocked and touched the long object, and then said to An Yi: "It is indeed a knife."
Peace of mind, since it is a knife, there is nothing to worry about. In this world, can a cold weapon be stronger than a gun? As long as this person does not shake the prestige of their mercenary team in the safe zone, letting him join can also expand the workforce.
"Welcome to the sw0304 safe zone, what's your name?" An Yi took the initiative to shake hands with Wu Qi. In just a few dozen seconds, the other party's mystery and the sense of surprise it brought to him deserved to be treated with such respect, and he treated Wu Qi with such respect. The animal skins in the strange luggage are of great interest.
Wu Qi thought for a second and then replied: "Wu Qi."
