The vehicle left the Yunxiang base and drove on a man-made road. On both sides of the road were those twisted and strange trees from the Reverse World. The strange vitality made their roots spread to the road, so the base had to clean the road regularly to allow vehicles to pass.
Sitting in one of the Falcon chariots, Tianyang stared out the window at the world shrouded in black fog. As far as the eye could see, there was only a dark forest with no end in sight by the roadside.
"You have a special mission. In principle, I will not interfere with your actions." Adam's voice drew Tianyang's attention away from the window.
"But I am the team leader and the person in charge of security for this expedition. So, if I judge that your actions will cause danger or even harm to us, I will forcibly interfere with your actions."
Tianyang nodded in agreement: "This is what should be done, I have no objection."
Adam smiled. "I'm glad we can come to an agreement."
At this time, Tianyang received a text message on his communicator.
'You received a mission reward distribution notification.'
'Reward item: Huanggu Town Exploration Mission.'
'Reward content: Contribution point reward.'
'Contribution points: 500 basic rewards, 300 points for assisting in killing wizards, 500 points for destroying large dark tree spirits, 100 points for recovering wizard pupil crystal materials (team), 162 points for miscellaneous items, a total of 2462 contribution points.'
'All rewards have been issued, please check.'
Tianyang checked his current total contribution points again. After lending 2,000 points to Yanbing, he currently had 5,620 contribution points left.
So far, the total contribution points he has obtained have reached nearly 10,000. However, he still has a long way to go before he can obtain the right to establish a clan with 100,000 contribution points.
At noon, the convoy came out of the forest, and Tianyang spent the rest of the journey in bumpy weather.
Obviously, there is no Reverse Boundary Highway in this area, and the base’s resources are unable to extend the highway to this point, so the convoy can only travel on the rugged road, testing everyone’s physical strength.
This is a mountainous area, with rolling mountains that seem to have no end. Of course, under the black fog, it is difficult for humans to see far away without auxiliary equipment.
Adam acted as a guide and introduced Tianyang to the situation in this mountainous area.
There are several mines. One of them belongs to Yun's private property, and the rest are controlled by the fortress.
There were smooth roads between the mines and the bases, but unfortunately the place they wanted to go was completely different from the location of the mines, so they could not use those roads.
Tianyang didn't care. With his strengthened body, this little bump was nothing. If he really wanted to worry, he might as well worry about Mr. Kong.
I'm afraid that no matter how comfortable the Yun family's vehicle is, the old man can't withstand such bumps.
Then again, what kind of luminous bacteria would attract a botanist like Kong Zhang? And what benefits would the fortress gain from studying those bacteria
I guess only the old gentleman knows the answer to this question.
After a day, the team finally got out of the mountains, and the Nijie Highway became everyone's savior. They finally didn't have to spend their days bumping through the mountains. Even though the road was occasionally broken and undulating, it was generally flat.
Occasionally, you will find some wanderers on the road.
These things have a sense of group awareness. Unless necessary, the convoy will not stop to clean them up, so as not to attract a large number of illegal citizens.
At sunset in fortress time, the convoy finally arrived at its destination, Gem Town!
The convoy did not enter the town directly. Instead, the vehicles formed a defensive formation and temporarily rested in an open space near the highway.
Adam got out of the car and met Yunze: "We are all tired after running around for the past two days. Let's rest here. We will go into the town in eight hours."
Yunze had no objection.
The soldiers then began to set up a cordon, using some borrowed tools as cover and also to block the firelight in the camp.
Seven or eight Frost Cloud Guards began to cook in the camp. Instead of making a bonfire, they took out some foldable camp stoves and placed them on the flat ground.
After starting the ignition device in the stove, a blue flame will light up on the stove. Then put the camp pot on the stove, pour simple food into the pot, heat it up, and it is ready to eat.
The Frost Cloud Guards also set up two tents and took some simple supplies from the car so that they could spend the night comfortably in the tents.
Of course, these two tents were prepared for Yunze and Kong Zhang.
Others had to spend the night in their cars.
Tianyang withdrew his gaze from the tent and took out a box of high-energy food from his waist bag.
, put the compressed food stick in your mouth and chew it.
Adam, who was also chewing a food stick next to him, sighed, "Sometimes I really envy the treatment of the Yun family guards. At least they can eat hot food. Unlike us, we can only chew cold food sticks."
"Such a team may have good combat effectiveness, but lacks resilience. Once the battle situation turns unfavorable, I don't think they can hold on for too long." Tianyang analyzed and took a bite of a food bar.
Adam looked at the boy in surprise. "You have a unique vision. I think so too. Look at the equipment they use, the clothes they wear, and even the marching tools they use. These things are so shiny and convenient."
"If they enjoy this kind of convenient life for a long time, this place will become fragile." The strong man tapped his chest. "Once the environment becomes bad and they have to deal with dirt, I guarantee that they will collapse quickly. In this regard, they are far inferior to us."
Adam looked proud when he said this.
Tianyang deeply agrees that the world of adversity is full of unknown dangers, and only those with strong wills can survive. This world is not a stage for some people to perform.
Eight hours later, the team moved camp.
There is no obvious entrance to Gem Town, such as a checkpoint like in Desert Valley Town. An anti-world highway extends unimpeded into the town.
As we got closer to Gem Town, we began to see more things on the ground, rocks, lamp posts, road signs, and all kinds of objects.
Reverse Bacteria.
These bacterial colonies are not like the enlarged, sickly, pale bacteria commonly seen in metropolitan areas. The bacterial colonies in Gem Town are delicate and tightly arranged.
The color is not white or dark black, but dark blue.
From a distance, it looks like dark blue blankets spread over everything in the town.
“They have grown particularly vigorously in recent years.”
Sitting by the window, Adam watched the fungi passing by the car: "The Botanical Research Institute over at the fortress has recorded them. In the past five years, their growth rate has been ten times faster than before, or even more."
"It's as if there is some force giving birth to these things."
Tianyang looked at the things outside the window and began to understand why a botanist suddenly came to Baoshi Town.
