It was still morning, and the radiant clouds of the sky were beginning to take on layers of brilliant splendor.
After the cataclysm, billions of tons of radiation dust rushed to the sky along with the updraft, and then formed a radiation cloud covering the entire earth. Since then, neither humans nor other creatures can hardly see the real sky. Some people complain that the sky covered by radiation clouds is always bleak, but they don't know that it is because of them that life on earth can continue to survive.
The baptism of meteorite rain is almost equal to the random bombing of hundreds of bombs. The enormous energy of the explosion has allowed research on the destruction of the Earth's ozone layer. Ultraviolet rays and other cosmic rays rushed into the earth wantonly. If it were not for the radiation cloud acting as the second layer of ozone, reflecting most of these terrible sights back into space, the earth would have become a dead planet.
This may be a blessing in misfortune. Nature uses its own methods to survive, and life on the ground pays a price hundreds of times higher. The opening of a new era is based on countless dead bodies, and the lives that can survive are all walking on the blood of the same kind. In the cruel era, all life glows with more intense vitality.
Everything, just to survive.
The wind howled on the plain with fine dust of ice. It was almost spring, but the Central Continent ushered in the coldest time of the year. The surviving people are hiding in the base, and even the refugees living on the surface are unwilling to go out to work in this kind of weather. They will hide in simple shacks or abandoned buildings, and use wooden boards or other things to cover the gaps in the house, trying to prevent the invasion of cold.
Otherwise, it would be fatal.
But now, there is a modified heavy locomotive roaring and driving straight in the wilderness. The whole locomotive is pitch black, and the front and rear parts are sprayed with red paint in the shape of flames. From a distance, it looks like a raging fire coming from far to near.
The two tires of the heavy locomotive are equipped with anti-skid chains, which allows it to run freely on the ice field. Judging from its speed, it even reached a terrifying speed of 350 to 400 kilometers per hour. The engine of the locomotive was running at full capacity, and the roar of the piston movement was deafening.
The material of the car is super alloy, and the outer layer is protected by a layer of titanium coating, which makes the car not easy to be corroded by acidic substances and can work in most harsh environments. On both sides of the rear of the locomotive are built-in weapon racks, which can store several conventional hot and cold weapons. It adopts high-efficiency and energy-saving solid combustion. While providing huge power to the locomotive, it can also ensure that the embarrassing scene of liquid combustion and solidification will not occur in a low-temperature environment.
The figure of the knight on the locomotive is a bit thin and slender. He is wearing a one-piece black tactical suit, which clings to his body, outlining almost perfect muscle lines. The knight wears a black helmet on his head. The design of the helmet is simple and stylish. The streamlined design minimizes wind resistance when the knight gallops against the wind.
Behind the transparent resin goggle, there are strange eyes of two colors, one black and one gold.
The pupils with black on the left and gold on the right cast a mysterious light on the knight.
Driving through the almost endless wilderness, a road submerged in radiation snow finally appeared in front of the locomotive. Judging from the snow piled up on both sides of the road, the road was cleared by machinery not long ago, otherwise it would be impassable now. The knight drove onto the road, and after a while, he arrived at the end of the road, the former site of a town that no longer existed.
When the locomotive stopped, a faint white smoke floated from the hood of the front of the locomotive, and fine drops of water appeared, which were traces of ice chips in the wind being melted by the high temperature emitted by the locomotive engine.
After setting up the tripod, the rider got off the bike. He took off the helmet, and suddenly his black hair was blown wildly by the wind, like a burning black flame.
Ling Ban squinted, looking at the ruins in the distance. In his mind, Beyonce sent him a telegram with information about this town of Buford.
The resident population of Buford Town is between 300 and 500, and it has shown signs of decreasing year by year in recent years. That has something to do with the economy of the town. Residents in the town don't have many sources of income, and most of them make a living by picking up waste. The scavenging point is an abandoned military warehouse two hundred kilometers away. The military warehouse has been buried underground and has become a lair of violent giant rats.
Residents must go deep underground and live between the teeth of giant rats. But even if they are not killed by this mutated creature, it is usually difficult for them to survive the prime of life for picking up nuclear uranium for a living. Therefore, the number of men in the town keeps decreasing, and the rest are mostly old people, women and children.
But what Zero saw now was a dead town.
At the entrance of the original site of the town, a huge earth bump protruded from the wilderness, as big as a small hill. There is a stone tablet erected in the direction of the town, on which there is only a simple line "Bifford Town Cemetery" engraved on it.
Who would erect a monument to the victims of a small town in the middle of nowhere? Undoubtedly, if not survivors, then people who once came from the small town.
"I'm from Bufordtown!"
That day when he attacked him for no reason in Bides City, the voice of that young killer lingered in Zero's mind. It seems that the person who erected the monument is probably this person. At that time, Zero couldn't understand why he showed such great hatred towards himself, but now that he saw the ruined town, Zero could probably understand a thing or two. But a new problem arises again, what does it matter to him that the town is destroyed
At this time, Ling saw a bunch of dark yellow wild flowers in front of the stele. This is the most common mutated plant in the wilderness. Their vitality is barely as good as the ubiquitous weeds in the old days, or even worse. The wildflowers are held down by a rock, which keeps them from being blown away by the wind. Judging from the fact that the flowers and leaves are not yet withered, this bouquet of flowers was placed here not long ago.
There was an inaudible noise in his ears, Ling walked around the dirt bag, and saw an old corpse wolf digging the frozen dirt. This carrion-eating creature is exceptionally sensitive to the smell of death, and the corpse wolf was apparently attracted by the corpses of townspeople in the cemetery.
Zero grunted, walked back to the newly purchased heavy locomotive, and took out two Browning automatic pistols from the weapon bracket at the rear of the car. Although he can use energy to materialize most of the light firearms, but when he has physical equipment, how can Zero keep them and not use them. Anyway, these equipments were also presented by the owner of the car shop when he bought this locomotive. Based on the principle of using for nothing and not using it for nothing, Zero honestly accepted a bunch of gifts.
This pair of Browning pistols is one of them. Holding it in the hand, the precipitated metal texture makes Zero feel like returning to the past.
The gunshot rang out the next moment, and the corpse wolf was frightened the next moment, and fled away with its tail between its legs. Zero was about to put away the pistol, but saw the corpse wolf running back like a gust of wind. After zero, this guy was so frightened that he was dizzy, and even ran towards him with a gun. Unexpectedly, behind the dead wolf, there would be a wave of earth. Looking at the old wolf's eyes full of fear, it turned out that it was forced back by the wave of earth.
When the earth wave reached the ground at a distance of 000 meters, a black figure suddenly jumped out of the earth wave, but it was a giant wolf the size of a bull and its body was made of rocks. The stone wolf's four claws were flying like flying, and after a while, it had caught up with the wild wolf and trampled it into thin mud with one paw, and then rushed towards Zero for a while, its purpose is self-evident.
At the same time that the name of the ability "low-level elemental puppet" flashed through Zero's mind, he suddenly fell backwards, and he, who was attached to the ground, almost missed the giant wolf's pounce. The man was under the wolf's belly, Ling was not idle, and fired with two guns in his hands. All the bullets poured from the muzzles fell into the belly of the rock giant wolf, and the impact of the bullets easily passed through the loose rock cracks.
When the giant wolf landed on the ground, it had already crumbled into stones all over the ground, and it really lived up to its "low-level" name. No matter in terms of structural strength, intelligence and strength, it is far worse than the self-disciplined war puppet cast by the old dwarf in the dungeon.
But to break up such a big guy, it also consumes the ammunition of zero double guns. There was no way to do this. The Browning series of pistols were not weak, but they were still relatively powerful compared to ordinary people. Naturally, one or two bullets can't solve a thing like a rock giant wolf. And if it weren't for an ability user with a level like zero, it would be even more impossible to send the bullet to the gap in the puppet's body, so that it could be easily deconstructed.
When bouncing off the ground, Zero dropped the dual guns. He quickly looked forward, and two more earth waves roared towards him. In the dirt wave, the wolf-shaped puppet jumped out again. Zero looked at his beloved car, fearing that the newly purchased seat frame would be damaged in such a meaningless battle, so he turned around and ran away. Behind him, two wolf puppets kept chasing after him.
Zero suddenly accelerated, with the sixth level of agility fully activated, he turned into thousands of afterimages, and in the blink of an eye, the distance between him and the two wolf puppets was opened. When the distance between the two was a hundred meters, Zero suddenly froze again, and the two wolf puppets seemed to have received an order, and suddenly dispersed left and right. One speeded up and went around from the left, while the other headed straight towards Zero, forming a siege posture.
When the wolf puppet from behind pounced, Ling jumped up in the air, and at the same time as a roll and the wolf puppet passed by, two microcomputers materialized with energy sprayed long flames from the muzzle of the gun. The fiery torrent of bullets was controlled with zero precision down to the millimetre, and with the terrifying criterion of bullet point distance not exceeding 0.5 cm, it directly blasted the wolf puppet into pieces like two thermal energy cutting waves.
But when Ling fell to the ground, the other wolf puppet circled to the front and passed directly through the debris of the same kind, condescendingly rushing towards Ling.
The shadow immediately enveloped Zero's whole body, but in the shadow, a thin golden flame spewed out from Zero's right eye.
The right hand hidden under the tactical suit was suddenly covered with a layer of gray cuticle, and at the same time, a black exoskeleton armor was instantly formed on the forearm. Zero used this mutated arm to grab upwards, and the gray cuticle all over the arm instantly tightened, instantly making Zero's arm tighten like thousands of loose steel cables, turning into a huge force.
The fingers stuck into the wolf puppet's neck without obstruction, and Zero swung it down suddenly, and just like that, he clasped the wolf puppet and hit the ground hard. The terrible impact directly shattered this low-level puppet into pieces. Amidst the splash of stone chips, Zero Mutation's right hand quickly returned to normal.
This is another method of using the Naga genome. During the few days waiting for the Black Rose family to send a command car to pick up Kodd, Zero Secret, who had nothing to do, tried various methods of using the independent genome. This kind of local mutation is one of them. Its advantage is that it can be switched freely, requires very little energy, and can maintain the Naga exoskeleton for a longer period of time than full-scale alienation.
As for the disadvantages, it is also obvious, that is, the way to use it is narrow, and it cannot provide comprehensive protection. But it is enough for short-term contact warfare.
After two waves of wolf puppets, no other attacks appeared. Zero straightened his body, and said to the vast world: "Come out. You can kill me, at least tell me the reason. It's just that I will protect myself. No matter what, I have a reason to live!"
"reason?"
A loud cry sounded from behind the cemetery, and Jin, the ability user who had attacked Zero, came calmly and said with a sneer, "Don't they in this town have a reason to live? That's right, I was ordered to attack you. If I give you revenge There is nothing wrong with that. But they are just ordinary people, but you don't even let ordinary people go. Zero, you are a devil!"
"You mean, this town was destroyed by me? Did I kill all these people with my own hands?" Zero said in surprise.
Jin stopped, and the distance from Zero was about 100 meters. This is a relatively safe distance, no matter what action Zero makes, he can react in time. Hearing Ling's words, Jin said angrily: "What? You suffer from amnesia? What did you forget to do? Zero, I thought you were a character, but it turned out to be nothing more than that."
Zero shook his head and said lightly: "Believe it or not, this is the first time for me to come to this town today. It is because I heard the name of this town from you that I am standing here now. As for you It's nonsense to say that I killed all the people here. If I did it, I'm not afraid to admit it. If you don't believe me, if you want to kill me, just target me. But if it's like last time, put If innocent people are dragged in, I swear that I will do whatever it takes to kill you and the person who wants to blame me behind your back, no matter who he is or where he is!"
"You shouldn't deny that the earthquake was caused by you, right?"
Throwing this question that Jin wasn't going to answer, Zero turned and walked back to the reloading locomotive. He jumped up, put on his helmet and said, "I think in this place, you shouldn't be in the mood to fight with me. Then before the next encounter, use your brain to think carefully, have I done the same thing?"
With that said, Zero starts the engine. The reloaded locomotive was like a roaring black dragon, after spouting two hot and huge white smoke from the exhaust pipe, it carried Ling away.
After a long time, a clear and cold voice sounded behind Jin: "You don't really believe what he said, do you?"
"I don't know." Jin turned his head, looked at the stunning and enchanting figure behind him indifferently and said, "I just know that what he said is right, I have studied him, Alice. As he said, since he appeared in the wilderness Since then, I have never done anything like Buford Town. Nothing, and. The guy used a gun, so I have never figured it out. Except for the burn marks on Uncle Pete that day, Why can't I find half a bullet hole?"
"Can you tell me why, Alice!"
In the wilderness, only Jin's screams echoed. The only response to him was the wind.
