City C.
The end of the world has been approaching for more than a few months, and the originally bustling city has become dilapidated, leaving only ruins, and unknown corpses are piled up in every corner of the city, emitting a disgusting rotten smell.
To the northwest of the city, a group of heavily fortified buildings can be vaguely seen, which is incompatible with the surrounding dilapidated environment.
"Qi Ge, what kind of 'oasis' are we really going to seek refuge in? This city doesn't look...it doesn't look good." Beside the off-road vehicle, a tall and long-legged man got out of the vehicle with a gun in his hand, and looked around Four weeks later, he frowned slightly dissatisfied.
After the end of the world, various cities were gradually invaded by zombies and mutant beasts, but there were also many capable people who gathered the surviving humans to form new survival bases. Roughly speaking, there are more than 30 large and small bases established in various cities, and about 13 bases have established contact with each other.
The base they were originally in was relatively small. Although the supplies were limited, the overall strength was good, and they could survive without any worries.
They were a group of 4, headed by Huang Tianqi, originally an independent team in the base, and they usually had more freedom in missions. I don't know what the captain was up to, but after hearing the news about "Oasis", he was determined to move his position, and that's why he came out today.
City C, where the "oasis" is located, was originally an international metropolis, but due to the dense population, the speed at which zombies spread in the early days of the end of the world is quite terrifying. To be able to build a large-scale survival base in such an environment, the leader still has some skills. only…
From the outside, the city seems to be covered with a layer of dark, gray, a completely fallen look, lifeless. You know, around their original base, when the patrol team goes out to hunt zombies, they will clean up the corpses together, so as not to rot and infested with insects, and the stench is unstoppable.
"You can't look at the surface in everything." The man called Qi Ge was a man with glasses, with straight eyebrows, looking a little gentle, "Have you seen the black holes under the broken walls? That is the territory of the corpse rat. "
Corpse rat is the nickname given to those mutated rats by people after the end of the world.
Hearing this, the man with the gun looked around again at the ground floor of the dilapidated building. There were indeed dense black gaps. When he looked closely, he could vaguely see bursts of red light in the hole. Those were the eyes of corpse-eating rats.
"Fuck, it's true." The man couldn't help but exclaimed, his scalp tingling slightly. The combat power of the Corpse Rats is not high, but there are so many of them, if they go crazy, even they may find it difficult to escape.
"To be able to coexist with so many corpse rats, this 'oasis' is more interesting than I imagined." Huang Tianqi said slowly with a smile on his lips.
The Corpse Rat's combat power is low, and it is difficult to develop such a large scale whether it is against humans or mutant beasts. If this situation happened to the ordinary base, they would probably clean up the corpse rats as soon as possible, lest they develop and become a threat. But this "oasis" seems to be a bit out of the ordinary.
If his guess is correct, the leader of "Oasis" is deliberately "breeding Gu", using these corpse rats as a tool to clean up the rot. After all, phagocytic rats dwell in dwellings during the day, are active at night, and feed on carrion. Those rotting corpses are their delicacies. If used properly, they are free "urban cleaners".
Those who dare to do this are either confident enough in their own strength that they are not afraid of the counterattack of those corpse-eating rats, or they are so stupid that they don't even consider this... Which kind of leader will this "Oasis" be
Huang Tianqi looked at the "Oasis" base not far away, and a light flashed under his lens. I hope the opponent is the former, after all, only in this way, it is more interesting to compete for territory...
He came all the way, not to seek refuge, but to... occupy.
…
The "Oasis" base doesn't seem to have anything special from the outside, but when he actually walked in here, Huang Tianqi had to sigh that he really chose the right place.
The structure of the entire base is similar to that of an ancient city pool. It is impregnable on the outside and has all the facilities inside. Grain production, food processing, water supply cycle, construction equipment, weapon arsenal... They are all condensed miniature cities, and the degree of perfection can be called terrifying.
Being in it will even make people feel a trance that the end of the world has never come.
"Well, let alone, this place is indeed much better than our original base." After entering the base, the man who was still questioning Huang Tianqi's judgment looked around and couldn't help but exclaim.
Compared with the original base, the living environment here is much stronger, and coming here is undoubtedly the right choice. Presumably with their strength, they can get enough superior survival resources here.
"You guys, please come with me and go through the check-in procedures." After entering the "oasis", they were greeted by a hot woman dressed in cool clothes, which made people unable to take their eyes off her. Her name was Wutong, and she lived in the oasis. Specially responsible for personnel access and welfare distribution.
"Beauty, come back and finish the formalities, why don't you come and sit in our room?" Among the four people traveling together was a fat man with big ears, who had been staring at her chest and buttocks since he came in. Didn't get started.
In this world, the strong are respected, and an incompetent vase can only sell its appearance. This has almost become the consensus of the survivors. There are also quite a few beautiful women in their original base, but such high-quality women are quite rare.
Wu Tong glanced at them contemptuously, and said with a sneer: "That's really embarrassing, with your current contribution, you still can't live in a private room, so I can only trouble you to make do with it at the Chase Shop."
"What?" Hearing this, the fat man suddenly felt embarrassed, and couldn't help but increase the volume, "Hey, did you make a mistake? Our brothers are all supernatural beings above the third level. Which survival base is it right? The top allocation resources? Don't be shameless!"
Since the end of the day, several months have passed. Survivors have appeared one after another with supernatural powers. Later, everyone discovered that absorbing the crystals in the skulls of advanced zombies can evolve. An instrument for measuring the strength of evolution.
At present, there are still a small number of high-level supernatural beings, and supernatural beings above the third level are even more scarce, and they are the meat and potatoes that the major bases are vying for. As for Huang Tianqi and his group of four, three of them reached the third level, and Huang Tianqi even reached the fourth level. No matter which base they are in, they are all strong players.
"Oh? Who is shameless?" Wutong turned cold, and didn't even bother to fake a smile. "Other bases are willing to allocate resources to the top, so you go to other bases. When you arrive at the 'oasis', you have to press Oasis rules! All benefits here need to be exchanged with contribution points, as newcomers, your current contribution points are - zero."
"You!" The fat man was so annoyed by Wutong's attitude that he wanted to make a move as soon as he rolled up his sleeves.
"Why? Want to make gestures?" Wutong showed no timidity at all, the contempt in his eyes grew stronger, his long legs walked forward slowly, and snowflakes floated around in a blink of an eye, and the temperature dropped sharply.
As the gatekeeper of the oasis, what can I do without any strength. Although her strength is incomparable to that of the boss, she is also a veritable fourth-level supernatural being. To deal with this disgusting fat man, she can easily be crushed to death.
The fat man's face changed suddenly, and he lost all intention of confronting him in an instant, and shrank behind Huang Tianqi.
"Everywhere, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding..." Huang Tianqi waved his hand, a golden light flashed, and the snowflakes all over the sky were reduced to nothingness. I'm not used to being restrained, and I don't have a good mouth, and please ask the lady to be more generous, so don't be as knowledgeable as him."
At first, when he saw the fat man wanted to do something but didn't stop him, he also wanted to give the opponent a bad blow, but he really didn't expect that even the gatekeeper of "Oasis" was a fourth-level ability user.
Indus snorted lightly, without denying it. Presumably, he saw that Huang Tianqi was difficult to deal with. Out of various considerations, he finally chose not to do anything.
"Okay, I'll sell you this time to save face, and next time, I don't mind freezing him into a popsicle." Wu Tong said lightly, his eyes swept across the fat man coolly, as if looking at a dying man people.
"Yes, yes, yes." Huang Tianqi's smile remained undiminished, but he was quite annoyed in his heart. After all, he is a newcomer, so he should not be too arrogant in dealing with others, but he quietly wrote down the comparison.
"However, girl, I wonder if we can be more flexible about the contribution rate mentioned earlier?" Huang Tianqi asked with a smile.
"Nonsense, of course it's impossible. Except for the boss who can enjoy special treatment, everyone else has to start from scratch." After speaking, Wu Tong returned to his seat and urged impatiently: "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Come and register."
"Oh, that's it. My name is Huang Tianqi, a fourth-level earth-type supernatural being from Fengdu base. I heard the news from the wireless telegram that you are urgently recruiting soil-type supernatural powers, so I came here on purpose." Huang Tianqi looked at the other party and explained in a deep voice.
He was looking forward to seeing the other party's surprised expression. After all, the boss of Oasis himself was the one who released the news, and that was a very high salary. The doorkeeper, I'm afraid she will slap herself in the face.
Sure enough, the other party had a rather surprised expression on his face, and even raised his voice a little, "What? You are Huang Tianqi?"
"Yes." Huang Tianqi replied calmly.
He was very satisfied with the other party's expression. He was used to self-confidence, so that he didn't think deeply why the other party was amazed at the name Huang Tianqi instead of his supernatural attribute level.
"Ah..." Indus was stunned for a rare moment, his usually indifferent face burst into a smile at this moment, and a little excitement flashed in his eyes, "It turned out to be Mr. Huang, I'm really sorry for being negligent before."
"Come on, sit down, our boss has specially ordered that if you meet Mr. Huang... such a capable person, you must treat him well." Wu Tong stood up, respectfully gave up his seat, and said with a smile.
It's no wonder that her attitude changed so quickly. It's because the boss made a special statement before leaving. If you encounter this guy, you must leave him at the base and wait for him to come back to deal with it. That was the first time she saw the boss showing such obvious hostility, as if there was some deep hatred.
She was still very nervous what to do if the other party came and was beyond her ability. As a result... just level four
Is this worth the boss's going all out to find someone? That's it? That's it
Indus complained frantically in his heart, but on the surface he worked hard, and said hypocritically: "Our boss is not at the base recently, and when he comes back, we will definitely arrange for you to meet as soon as possible."
"Thank you." Wu Tong's attitude made Huang Tianqi very helpful, even though he felt that something was wrong, he didn't realize it for a while.
In this way, he stayed at the oasis base and spent the last period of his life comfortably.
…
Coming out of Manzhushahua's territory, Li Yuan rushed to the base without stopping.
That is the comfort zone he specially created for Ning Xingzhou. The base accommodates half and half of the supernatural beings and ordinary people. The members obtain resources according to their contribution, hunting corpses, building houses, technological restoration, medical technology, and coolie labor. And so on, you can get the corresponding contribution value, which is a rare base where people without abilities will not be discriminated against.
He didn't want Ning Xingzhou to develop in the direction of his previous life, and he didn't even hesitate to build a utopia for him.
Now that the base has stabilized, once he gets rid of future troubles, Ning Xingzhou can be brought out to give him a small surprise.
Just now, he received the news from the base that Huang Tianqi had arrived.
This guy was the opportunity for Ning Xingzhou to betray him in the previous life, and he was also one of the lords who later led the human forces to encircle him. Once again, he wants to kill the threat in the bud, so that the opponent doesn't even have the qualifications to fight with him.
He didn't know the specific address and information of the other party in the early days of the end of the world, so he took advantage of the base to release the news to absorb the earth-type supernatural beings with the highest treatment. Presumably, the other party's greed and ambition would definitely come.
Now the bait has just been released for more than half a month, and the fish have taken the bait.
…
"Boss!" As soon as Li Yuan returned to the base, Wu Tong excitedly greeted him, "I've arranged him in Tongxing North Campus, I'll be honest and waiting."
Li Yuan nodded, as if he remembered something, paused slightly, "Give me the sword."
"Eh? Oh oh oh!" Wu Tong was puzzled for a moment, she had never seen the boss use a sword before, why did she suddenly want a sword? But she didn't ask anything, just took the sword and went.
After receiving the long sword, Li Yuan walked straight to the north courtyard without delaying a moment.
Huang Tianqi and several people in his company were discussing the next step in the courtyard arranged by Wutong, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside, he followed the sound, and saw an imposing man walking towards him surrounded by everyone, his eyes fixed Lock him firmly.
This person is... strong.
Huang Tianqi realized this the first time he saw the other party. The other party's appearance was very handsome, but what was even worse was that terrifying aura and those extremely indifferent eyes.
Huang Tianqi's heart skipped a beat, he realized how absurd his previous calculations were. He actually wanted to replace such a terrifying existence
He forced a smile, stretched out his hand against the pressure, "This is the boss of 'Oasis', right? I'm a new supernatural user, level 4 soil, please give me your advice."
Unexpectedly, Li Yuan just glanced at him coldly, then instantly drew his sword, and slashed at his outstretched hand.
All of a sudden, blood splattered and howls shook the sky.
Huang Tianqi wailed in pain, picked up his severed right hand from the ground, and used his earth-type ability to forcefully stick it together. He raised his voice and asked, "You... what do you mean?"
The coldness in Li Yuan's eyes remained undiminished, and he said sarcastically, "I'll teach you what you mean."
Before he finished speaking, the long sword was raised again, Huang Tianqi frightened and angrily defended with supernatural powers, but the difference in strength was too great, the opponent's speed was too fast, and his strength was too fierce, he couldn't defend against it at all!
In a few ups and downs, there were countless bloody holes on his body. The opponent's sword seemed to have a defense-breaking effect. No matter how he repaired it with supernatural powers, he couldn't stop the blood from splattering. It didn't take long for the ground to be stained red with blood. If this continued, he would really die.
This was completely a unilateral killing, and he didn't even know where he had offended the other party.
He tried to beg for mercy, but his throat was cut, preventing him from speaking fully.
The fear of dying made him lose the will to fight, and he only wanted to escape, but found that the attack suddenly stopped.
"It seems that you don't like this way." Li Yuan looked down at the other party, seeing the other party's ashes, eyes full of fear, he suddenly felt very boring.
Even he himself was a little unclear why he chose to attack in this way. Perhaps it was because, when he was on the verge of death in his previous life, the other party had cut off his flesh piece by piece, and made a bet with his companions on how many pieces he could last without dying.
It just seems that it is not necessary now.
Li Yuan raised his hand with an indifferent expression. Flame is the ability bestowed on him by the new world, and using new abilities to end old grievances seems to be a good choice.
Black flames rose up all over the sky in an instant, engulfing Huang Tianqi within, and there was no time to escape. In just a few seconds, Huang Tianqi was completely swallowed by the flames, not even a scum was left.
"Boss, what about the remaining three people?" Seeing Li Yuan's sudden killing, Wu Tong didn't get to the bottom of it, but asked in a calm tone.
Her biggest advantage is her understanding of people, she knows what to ask and what not to ask.
Li Yuan did not answer, but expressed his attitude with actions. Three groups of terrifying black flames rose up, like the flames of hell, instantly devouring the lives of Huang Tianqi's three companions.
He is not a kind person in the first place, and he can't do the thing of letting the tiger go back to the mountain. In dealing with the enemy's attitude, he has always preferred to kill 10,000 by mistake, rather than letting one go.
"Clean up here, we can add some entertainment items in the base, and I'll bring someone back after a while." Li Yuan's mood eased a lot after he solved a thorn in his heart.
Wutong had a vague premonition, but felt that it should be impossible given their boss' temperament.
"Boss, is he leaving again?" Wu Tong asked softly, with a helpless tone. Although this base was created by Li Yuan, the other party stayed in the base for very little time, and she and a few other veterans were basically in charge of major and minor matters in the base.
"Well, but next time I come back, I should be a resident." Thinking of Ning Xingzhou who was waiting for him in the jungle, Li Yuan couldn't help but smile.
He imagined it quite beautifully, but what he didn't know was that Ning Xingzhou could clearly see the scene he did earlier through Manman's image.
