[Thanks to the two big monthly tickets of "Little Pig" and "This Set Again". I went to see the dragon boat the day before yesterday, got caught in the rain, got a little cold, and felt really uncomfortable with my runny nose... .]
A ball of grass the size of a blue ball rolled on the ground and was finally stopped by the barbed wire. Black and heavy military boots stepped on this grass ball, Zero kicked it away, and easily tore off a corner of the barbed wire with his hands, ignoring a sign that said "Dangerous Do Not Touch" hanging on the barbed wire. After years of neglect in the city, it has long since lost any power supply, so the high voltage current that the barbed wire should have is completely absent.
And even if it exists, there are plenty of solutions for zero. After all, the high-voltage electricity of the old era was not difficult for a person with this level of ability.
Behind the barbed wire fence is a wasteland overgrown with weeds. The night wind howls past, making the weeds sway endlessly. From a distance, it looks like the swaying arms of a ghost rising from hell.
Zero walked quietly through the grass, and it didn't take long before he saw a broken rail. The rails stretched forward, and Zero knew that there should be an EMU platform not far away. The map I have seen before shows that through a sewer near the platform, I can secretly enter the edge of the city, which is where Zero's destination is. So he walked along the tracks, and five minutes later, he saw the outline of the station. With the low-light vision of his right eye, Zero happened to catch a shadow wandering on the platform.
This is a humanoid creature.
It walks upright like a human being, but on its crocodile-like head, there is a bony spur extending from the center of the brow to the spine of the back. Its arms are so long that they almost touch the ground. It can't see any visual organs on its head, but there are eyeballs rolling on its shoulders and chest, providing the creature with almost no blind spots. Although it is a humanoid life form, its legs are anti-joint tissues. As you can imagine, this will make it go fast.
The monster that didn't appear in any data on the Golden Tomahawk is still hovering around the platform at this profound moment, like a sentinel
In no hurry to get onto the platform, Zero burrowed into the grass and stalked through the grass like some kind of reptile. He didn't act recklessly, Zero's movements were quiet and gentle. And when the wind blows, when the weeds shake, he will suddenly accelerate. Under the cover of grass, Zero came near the platform. He was as still as a patient hunter. After making sure there was no second creature on the platform station, Zero waited.
Another gust of wind blew by, and the grass rustled. With strength in his hands and feet, he rushed out like a human-shaped lizard. The sound of the wind covered up the rumble of the air when Zero charged in, and when the sentinel reacted, a gun appeared out of thin air in Zero's hand and plunged into the monster's forehead. Zero took advantage of the trend and landed behind the sentry with a somersault, and quickly turned around its head with both hands.
The sound of a broken neck sounded softly, but the sentinel seemed to be still alive.
Terrible vitality.
While sighing, he swept his legs and put the sentinel down on the ground. Support its neck with both hands and pull it up, while the knee of the right leg presses hard against its back spine. Another sound of bone fracture came from Sentinel's body, around the vertebrae, making it stop any activity at last.
After confirming that the sentinel was dead, Zero dragged it into the grass, so as not to throw it on the platform and be discovered by its kind, so as to know that someone had invaded.
After doing all this, Zero found the sewer indicated on the map. Open the well cover and go down the stairs along the side of the well. The sewer is very dry and there is no water in the sewer. But there was a strange smell floating in the air, which was very unpleasant. Zero took out the tactical helmet from his backpack and put it on, and turned on the two functions of air purification and night vision mode. After that, his breathing became smoother, and the things in the sewer were clear at a glance.
On the ground not far away, a dead violent gopher was lying quietly on the ground. This is the most common mutant beast seen in the underground space. The violent gopher is as big as a puppy, with sharp claws and jagged teeth that can scratch through metal plates. These guys are very irritable, and their prey usually die badly.
And now, the dead gopher's body has decomposed. Zero saw fat maggots moving on its corpse, and the weird and disgusting smell probably came from the corpse of this gopher.
Violent gophers live in groups. Since there is a gopher corpse on the ground, it means that there will be at least one gopher nest in the sewer. This made Zero very unhappy. Although he was not afraid of Violent Gopher, he didn't want to spoil his plan because of these little things.
Due to the special space of the sewer, if a gun is used, the echo is so loud that even the deaf can hear it. Although the battleship artillery is quiet, its power is too great. Especially if a shot is fired in a complex environment like the sewer, I'm afraid the commotion will be enough to attract the attention of those strange beings in the city.
So Zero could only flip through the backpack again to see what tools Brown had prepared for him.
There are quite a few tools in the backpack, everything from safety wires to alloy shears, and even a pocket-sized jack, which made Zero smile wryly. Brown was careful, and too careful to befit his rough exterior. After searching for a while, Zero found a label on the side pocket of the backpack with the words "special props" written on it.
Zero open the side pockets, there are mostly small tools inside. There is also a wrench finger, and a circle of alloy wire is hidden in the wrench finger. The alloy wire is as thin as a hair, but extremely sharp. Moreover, there is a pocket shaft wheel in the finger, which can automatically retract the drawn alloy wire, which is also convenient to use. So Zero put this special wrench on his hand and continued to move forward.
Turning a corner, Zero stopped suddenly. Not far ahead, a huge gopher was facing Zero, as if sensing someone behind it, the gopher turned around. So in the night vision mode of the helmet, Zero saw a few blue lights, which were the eyes of the violent gopher.
Zero calmly pulled the alloy wire on the trigger finger, at this time the gopher sniffed in the direction of Zero, and then rushed towards Zero as if he had been injected with chicken blood. These things have a very sensitive sense of smell, even if they don't wear one-piece tactical suits, they don't want to be fooled by the body odor recognition system of Rabid Gopher.
The gopher rushed to it and swooped up. It opened its mouth wide, revealing a row of massive teeth. The blood plate bites towards Zero's neck. This is the most common attack method of the rabid gopher. It bites the main artery of the prey in one fell swoop, then bites with its mouth and tears with its claws, and will soon turn the prey into a corpse. But Zero is not a prey, but a hunter.
At the same time as the gopher swooped, Zero suddenly lowered his body, but raised his hands. Between his two hands lay an alloy wire, and the position of the alloy wire was exactly the height of his neck just now.
So the gopher bit the air, and the castration continued, it grazed the alloy wire abruptly, allowing the deadly metal wire to dissect itself from the middle. When the ground mouse fell to the ground, it had turned into two corpses, blood and intestines flowed all over the ground, but its strong vitality still made it lick its claws like a nerve reflex, and it died immediately!
No time to care about it, just move forward quietly. He knew that the smell of blood of the same kind would soon attract other rabid gophers, and as expected, a series of "rustling" sounds came from the sewer after a while. Not long after, a dozen gophers appeared around the corner of the sewer. They have never been picky about food, so some of them have buried their heads in biting the corpses of their own kind, while the others smelled Zero and ran after them.
In the dark sewer, the alloy wire lashed at a gopher like a whip, instantly cutting the big mouse in half. The silk thread bounced back, and Zero took one end, turned around and took a wrong step. The silk thread was wound around and wrapped tightly around the second mouse that passed by his waist. Zero pulled hard in the opposite direction with both hands, and the silk thread was straightened immediately, cutting off the gopher's head.
After the head fell to the ground, the guy's big mouth was still opening and closing, as if trying to bite something.
After killing the two gophers, Zero put away the alloy wire, then climbed up the iron ladder on the wall, and gently pushed the manhole cover on the head. After confirming that there were no traces of biological activity nearby, he left the sewer. And if someone appears in the sewer at this time, they will find that the sewer is full of violent gopher corpses.
Zero almost came all the way. On the short road from the station platform of the EMU to the subway station, there were at least thirty corpses of gophers lying in different shapes. These short-sighted things regard Zero as their prey, but they don't know that what they are chasing is actually a hunter, and it is a highly skilled one. After all, they learned their lesson, but the price they paid was death.
The subway station was surprisingly quiet. A defunct subway train tilted and overturned, and half of the car body was pressed against the edge of the platform. The platform was severely damaged, and even the passage on the west side had collapsed and became impassable. The gravel and steel bars lay silently on the ground, quietly recounting the tragedy that happened at a certain time in the past.
The few human remains that can still be seen are exposed in the stone pile, and they should be the poor people who were crushed by the rubble of the landslide when the disaster happened. They died at that time or at the end of the day, but without any rescue, they could only slowly die in hunger, pain and despair.
This process was slow and clear. Zero believed that they at that time might have hoped that they would die when the disaster happened, so that they would not have to endure the long suffering that followed.
And under the stone pile, there may be more corpses. And this subway station is the grave of these corpses!
Zero didn't want to stay in the tomb, so leaning on the half signboard that could still be seen at the station, he walked towards the passage on the east side. The entrance and exit there have several branches, one of which leads to a nearby supermarket. And what's outside the supermarket, Zero doesn't know. On the map provided by the Golden Tomahawk, there is nothing outside the subway station.
It seems that there is an invisible boundary separating the two worlds inside and outside the subway station.
Ten minutes later, Zero had already found the branch exit leading to the supermarket. He can observe the entire city from the high-level of the shopping mall, and then decide the route to continue sneaking into the city center. But just as the exit was in sight, he heard some subtle sounds and several figures of different shapes. Zero sighed, and pulled out the alloy wire again. After killing dozens of gophers, this thing doesn't seem too sharp anymore. Zero hopes that there won't be too many sentinels at the exit of the mall.
When Zero walked out of the subway exit, there were already three corpses of other races at the corner below the passage. And beside the corpse, there was a wrench. The finger has completed its mission. After killing the three aliens, the alloy wire has broken. One of them looks like a strange shape, and it can't be seen at all that the alien skeleton that evolved from any creature is surprisingly strong.
The alloy wire easily tore apart its flesh, but it got stuck in its bones, so that under zero excessive force, the alloy wire was torn off instead. In the end, a dagger was formed from zero matter, and several arteries and vessels of the alien creature were cut off, and the monster was truly killed. But the surface of the materialized dagger also had bubbles, which were caused by the corrosiveness of the alien blood.
Looking at the alien-like creature, Zero felt more and more heavy. This creature has already shown basic abilities such as strength, defense, and speed around the fourth level, and it is already a pretty good fighter in terms of humans. But even such creatures were only sent to serve as sentries, so it can be inferred that the rank of regular soldiers of other races is even higher.
As long as there are about five or six levels, it is enough to see. You must know that those intelligent races near the Silver Frost Forest have more than four levels, which is already very remarkable. And like Bides City, it is already a top existence among the alien races near the Silver Frost Forest. But the most powerful fighter among them is only at the sixth or seventh rank. In other words, on the western battlefield, such a role is nothing more than a regular soldier, at most a soldier of the rank of non-commissioned officer.
In this way, with the Shadow Canyon as the boundary, the power of the alien races on the east and west sides has become extremely different. This reminded Zero of what Cascilio said. Although he remembered it in his heart at the time, it was not until this moment that he really understood the position of the word "difficult" in Cascilio's words.
The previous waves of attacks, including those of the Pelidon tribe, might not be the real strength of the alien coalition forces. And the so-called noteworthy three alien races in the Golden Tomahawk data should be only marginal combat power. In other words, since the start of the war, the alien allied forces in this city have not yet used their real strength. This made Zero start to feel that maybe this time, even the god of war Tire took these alien races lightly.
After more than half a year of fighting, they still retain their strength. These alien races seem to be brewing in the city. And whatever it was, it was definitely going to be a storm.
Deadly storm!
In a calm mood, he continued to walk upwards through the emergency passage of the mall. However, it was impossible to continue to pass only after reaching the fifth floor, because the floors above the fifth floor had collapsed, and the gravel blocked the way. Zero had no choice but to retreat to the fifth floor and enter the mall through the safety door of the escape passage.
The fifth floor of the shopping mall is a clothing store, large and small clothing stores present the prosperity of the past in the dark. And the wardrobes, models and clothes that fell on the floor make it easy to imagine the chaos at the moment of disaster. But no matter what, the shopping mall is very quiet now, and the foreign coalition forces have not arranged for sentries to haunt the shopping mall on the fifth floor.
After all, for them, they probably never imagined that there would be humans sneaking in and arriving here. So Ling safely came to the window of the shopping mall facing the city, looked down, and what Ling saw was a city full of vitality.
It's just that the vitality of the city no longer comes from human beings, but the life of a different race that evolved from various creatures!
