The winter in the wasteland is extremely cold. Even in the early morning, when the darkness recedes, the sunlight is still blocked by the clouds, and the pale colors hang in the sky, making the whole world even colder.
The world seems to be covered with a veil, making it hard to see clearly.
On a piece of wasteland permafrost away from the mining town.
An ugly modified off-road vehicle was galloping across the ground with an abnormal roar.
Behind him, Mining Town has become a small black spot, and the sound of the explosion has long been inaudible.
In the driver's seat, Lin Tuo felt the cold wind blowing like a knife, and his tense heartstrings relaxed a little, and he couldn't help but want to complain.
This car is very similar to the one on Earth, but it has obviously been modified by magic.
Many places were awkward and extremely rough, and the front windshield was even missing. When the speed increased, the cold wind made his facial muscles stiff.
Moreover, the sound of this engine is not quite right, it is very noisy and loud, but the speed is not fast.
However, considering that this car is probably an antique left over from the "old times", I am afraid that many parts are patched together, so it is hard to say anything.
"Hey, where are you taking me?"
In the back seat of the car, Huaxi, whose face was flushed from the cold and whose nose was dripping, finally couldn't help asking.
"I don't know." Lin Tuo replied calmly, and before the little girl's eyes widened, he said, "I'm not familiar with this area, why don't you recommend me a place to go?"
He ran out in a hurry, he really didn't know where to go.
Fortunately, I brought a local, at least I didn't have to ask others for directions.
"No way, you..." Huaxi was stunned for a moment, but was suddenly interrupted by Lin Tuo when he opened his mouth, "Eh? We seem to have disturbed something by accident."
Holding the steering wheel, Lin Tuo glanced at the rearview mirror, frowning slightly.
Under the early morning light, black spots were reflected in the rearview mirror one after another, and they were chasing the vehicle in groups.
At first, I couldn't see clearly.
After a few breaths, Lin Tuo finally saw clearly what the group of "chasers" looked like.
It was a group of gray wolves with erect hair, strong body and ferocious expression.
"It's the Steppenwolf!" Huaxi also noticed the abnormality, tried to stand up, knocked open a small sunroof on the roof with his head, looked back, and then exclaimed.
"Is it those beasts that have been alienated by radiation? Are they strong?" Lin Tuo asked.
In this wasteland, the real masters are not human beings, but mutant beasts that are ubiquitous in the wilderness.
"Strong! The wild wolf's skin is tough. It is difficult to cut with ordinary knives. Its teeth can bite through steel. The key is to hunt in groups and have strong endurance.
They can be chased continuously for hours, and they are very difficult to provoke. Even a powerful wilderness hunter will usually choose to avoid them when they encounter them... Eh? what are you up to? "
Huaxi was introducing with a serious face.
Suddenly, he noticed that Lin Tuo was driving while pulling away the backpack full of weapons and ammunition on the co-pilot.
"Practice the gun." Lin Tuo said concisely.
Use the rope inside the car to fix the steering wheel, and use something to block the accelerator... Anyway, there is an endless wasteland ahead, and there is no need to obey the traffic rules.
At the same time, he quickly took out the rifle parts from his backpack and tried to assemble it.
Well, because when he was in college, his roommate was a fan of the military, and he had a general understanding of the structure of firearms. Although he had never touched the model of guns in the wasteland, the basic structure was the same.
After assembling a rifle with a little effort, Lin Tuo pressed another set of magazines, and immediately poked the reserved sunroof with the gun barrel.
This was obviously created to deal with similar situations, just enough to drill out a person.
Twisting back, holding the gun in both hands, Lin Tuo couldn't help feeling a little excited.
In the past, he had only shot guns in games, but now seeing a pack of wolves chasing him, he couldn't help feeling a little itchy.
Clumsily attempting to lasso a Steppenwolf with a reticle.
At this time, the wolves were getting closer to the car, and their fur, tongues, white mist, and the smelly saliva hanging from the corners of their mouths could already be seen clearly.
Seeing his movement, the wolves made adjustments immediately, trying to avoid the ballistic trajectory.
However, the next second.
With the sound of "Bang!", a bullet drew a strange arc and went straight to the sky, without even touching a wolf fur.
"What kind of accuracy are you? Can you do it?" In the back seat, Huaxi poked his head out of the skylight, and couldn't help asking.
"Shut up." Lin Tuo ignored her. Isn't it normal for a novice to be inaccurate when shooting for the first time
Find the feel, and squeeze the trigger again.
"boom!"
Well, it was a little better this time, the bullet hit the snow, and there was a puff of snow foam.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
…
Lin Tuo fired all the magazines in a row, but none of them hit the target.
No way, the first time I touched a gun, I was still shooting a moving target. I was still moving, and the opponent was also dodging. This difficulty factor was too high.
"So you don't know how to shoot at all, right? You don't know how to shoot, let me do it, these bullets are all wasted, they are all money!"
Huaxi watched a magazine empty, the corners of his mouth twitched in distress.
You know, all the bullets she picks up are general-purpose bullets. In the wasteland era, there is no ability to mass-produce bullets.
All forces are consuming the ammunition and firearms left over from the old era.
The latter is fine, it is carefully maintained, and it is not so easy to break, but the bullets are different. They are consumables. One is used, one is missing. In the wasteland, it is worth more than food, and it belongs to hard currency.
Lin Tuo wasted so much that it made her heart tremble with pain.
"Say it, shut up, my kd is very high in the game." Lin Tuo ignored her, just changed the magazine silently, looking for the feel.
The few shots just now were indeed missed, but if you look carefully, you will find that each shot is more accurate.
Shooting, to put it bluntly, is nothing more than "steady hand" and "calm mind".
Lin Tuo's physical fitness far exceeds that of ordinary people, his balance and grip stability are extremely strong, and his mentality is also good. It's not like shooting any precise target. What's missing is a familiar process for such a large area.
"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"...
With another round of gunshots, the wolves finally gradually felt the threat, and the flying bullets no longer flew around, but became more stable and more precise.
"boom!"
Finally, when he initially mastered the shooting method, a bullet hit a gray wolf in the eye by some coincidence.
"puff!"
The giant wolf didn't even have time to scream, it was completely overturned, and fell hard into the snow.
"one."
Lin Tuo counted silently and continued to shoot steadily, consuming ammunition.
From time to time, gray wolves were wounded or killed.
When he knocked down the fifth head, the wolf king finally roared, stopped the pursuit, and led the tribe to disappear behind the hillside.
"Give up now?" Lin Tuo was still a little unsatisfied, feeling a little unsatisfactory.
"It's not that we gave up... it's that we got worse."
Next to him, Huaxi said with a solemn expression and a bit of bitterness.
Lin Tuo was puzzled, and looked along her line of sight, and saw a giant bear jumping out of a jungle on the right.
It was huge in size, comparable to a buffalo, with white hair, but it seemed transparent under the sun, its eyes were scarlet, and its teeth protruded, shining with the luster of steel.
"This is a wasteland bear! If the rifle bullets can't hit its vitals, it may not even be able to break through its skin! Run! Hurry up! Speed up and throw it away!" Huaxi's face turned pale.
I complained in my heart.
I don't know why the luck is so bad, there are not many violent bears in the wasteland, and they may not be able to meet them when they usually look for them, but they randomly bumped into one of them.
The destructive power of this thing is really terrifying, the bullet can only pierce the skin at most, it can't kill at all, it's unnatural and extremely cruel.
The only ones Huaxi had heard of happened nearby.
Once, a violent bear entered a temporary resident of the Burning Fire Company in the night, swept the entire team, killed an executive director of the Burning Fire Company who was an evolutionary, ate the internal organs and left safely .
If caught by this thing, where is life left
"Wasteland Violent Bear? Is it strong?" Lin Tuo's eyes moved slightly, and he tried to shoot, but it didn't work, and instead angered the opponent.
"It's interesting." Lin Tuo didn't panic.
He just put away the rifle, turned back into the car, turned the steering wheel, found a random direction, stepped on the accelerator hard, and fled with a puff of black smoke.
The violent bear was relentless and pursued at a terrifying speed. Although it also opened a distance, it didn't get away.
Inside the car, Huaxi's expression became more and more anxious, Lin Tuo's face flashed a momentary hesitation, and then began to slow down, and parked the car in a mountain depression.
"Why stop? Are you out of gas?" Huaxi asked in horror.
Lin Tuo just said lightly: "You wait here honestly, I'll meet it."
After speaking, he pushed the door and walked out. At the same time, he took off his down jacket, revealing his well-proportioned body, and walked straight back.
"Are you crazy? It's impossible to beat this thing!" Huaxi was stunned, and quickly poked her head out of the skylight again, and shouted loudly.
However, Lin Tuo just turned a deaf ear.
"Crunch, crunch."
Stepping on the hard snow with both feet, the icy cold wind blows head-on, and the fine snow foam dances.
Lin Tuo walked at a constant speed and began to adjust his breathing rhythm at the same time.
The spirit is highly concentrated, the ether accumulated in the body is slightly restless, and every cell in the body is active.
The heartbeat began to speed up, the blood circulation in the whole body accelerated, and the limbs, muscles, bones, and flesh began to shake at an extremely frequent speed. This is the warm-up method of Huabingquan.
In a very short period of time, the body can be activated by shaking, and it can quickly enter the fighting state.
Lin Tuo still remembered that when he was a child, his grandfather proudly said that although his ancient martial arts were not as famous as gossip, Xingyi, Arhat... and the like.
But in terms of lethality, it is by no means inferior to any martial arts in the world.
It is said that this set of Huabing Fist is originally a martial arts method honed by ancient generals in countless battles with thousands of troops.
Later generations have organized and perfected it, and it can be as gentle as wind and heroic as forest when it is practiced in ordinary times.
It can even open mountains and crack rocks, and kill enemies within an inch!
Lin Tuo has never encountered an opponent who can let go of his hands and feet since his small success in martial arts.
Now, I encountered one.
…
The cold wind howled.
The daunting wasteland bear also noticed the human figure ahead.
A momentary doubt flashed in its scarlet eyes, but soon, it was filled with tyranny.
Just like its name, as one of the creatures at the top of the food chain in the wasteland, while possessing great power, it also loses its wisdom.
"Roar~~"
Amidst the roar, the giant bear full of oppression rolled up a large amount of snow, and its two front paws pierced out its sharp claws that were stronger than steel, strangling towards Lin Tuo's thin figure!
"Get away!!" Behind, Huaxi's voice appeared intermittent in the cold wind.
In the next second, the figure of Lin Tuo who was standing in place flickered, and unexpectedly pulled out an afterimage, avoiding two sharp claws between the limits, and intruding into the back of the violent bear.
Then he took a few vertical leaps, climbed into the air, firmly grasped the hair like a steel needle with his left hand, raised his right hand, and held it empty.
Wisps of green and white breath emerged out of thin air, and condensed into an illusory short spear in his palm!
"prick!"
Lin Tuo let out a low cry in his heart, and stabbed down fiercely with the spear of ether in his hand!
Tear off the fur, embed it in the muscle, and under the blessing of the whole body, forcefully penetrate it! !
"puff!"
In the next second, the illusory spear precisely pierced from the heart of the wasteland bear's chest, along with hot blood.
"burst!"
At the same time, Lin Tuo let go, stomped hard, and fled backwards, uttering words softly in his heart.
"boom!!"
The Spear of Aether disintegrated and exploded, shattering the heart of the Wasteland Bear. Its blood-filled, unbelievable eyes quickly dimmed.
…
"Plop!"
Time seemed to stand still for a brief moment, and then, the wasteland creature finally fell down unwillingly, and the sound of the wind became clear again.
Not far away, Lin Tuo let out a deep breath, then raised his head.
His eyes glanced over the dead bear's body, and he saw the dumbfounded expression on Huaxi's face on the roof of the car in front of him.
