Chapter 1183 Contract Release, Blue Star People's City!
April 12, Year 2 of Wasteland, cloudy.
Five o'clock in the morning.
There is still more than a month before the end of winter, and the air is full of coldness.
The moon hanging in the sky is still bright, and the moonlight falls on the ground and condenses into wisps of white frost.
A thin mist lingers.
The heavy labor intensity day after day has almost cured any survivor's insomnia and dreaminess.
In the Taihu Territory, this point is naturally as quiet as a dead place.
Except for the occasional rustling of patrolling guards on the street, there is no sound of insects or birds.
Hearing footsteps passing by the door again, Fan Fuzheng opened his eyes, or he didn't sleep at all last night.
All night, his mind was full of all kinds of unrealistic fantasies.
He thought of the various good treatments promised by Su Mo in the Wanjing Arena.
How happy it would be for a family to live safely, no longer worrying about the threats that may come at any time, and worrying about how to develop next.
But then I thought about what to do if the competition is too fierce and I am left behind and become a backward force.
The treatment I got with great difficulty may be taken back immediately, and I will return to the current living standard or even worse.
In summary, the first half of the night is mostly excitement, and the second half of the night is mostly worry.
The brain is not idle at all, and it is always in a tense state.
Of course.
Not only Fan Fuzheng.
In fact, the family didn't sleep much, all of them closed their eyes and waited for dawn.
"Get up?"
"Get up, and get ready."
Seeing Fan Fuzheng get up from the bed, the three of them also got up quickly to wash up, and went back and forth to check if there were any other places missed in the house.
During this period, just after six o'clock, the lord Lao Zhan came with people.
The polite words said yesterday were not repeated today, but Fan Fuzheng's excuse for sneaking around was pulled into the yard.
After groping for a while, Lao Zhan took out a black and cold object from his arms and handed it over.
"Take it, just in case on the road."
"Ah, this"
Feeling the shape of the object in his arms, Fan Fuzheng was slightly stunned.
Now that 90% of the survivors are still using cold weapons, the cold pistol is undoubtedly one of the most powerful weapons.
Even when facing powerful aliens, they can still fight.
"I exchanged iron spears with Lao Wang yesterday. There are not many pistols in the territory. You should keep it."
Fan Fuzheng was a little tempted, but finally rejected Lao Zhan's kindness.
No way.
Even if Taihu Territory has a certain scale now, it does not have the ability to make pistols by itself.
These only more than ten guns were bought from the post station at a high price after arriving in the New World.
Taking one away will undoubtedly weaken the armed forces of the territory.
"It's okay, don't worry. I'm investing here. Otherwise, you and your family might get into trouble."
"If our territory gets in touch with Su Shen, won't it be cut off?"
Old Zhan smiled and forcibly put the pistol handed over back into Fan Fuzheng's arms.
Then, he took out two small paper bags from his pocket.
There were fifteen rounds of yellow-orange bullets with obvious traces of manual hammering on them.
"Be frugal, aim well before shooting."
"Thank you!"
Fan Fuzheng has a high EQ, and he doesn't understand Old Zhan's thoughts at this time.
Although it was Old Zhan who led people to block in front and protect the Fan family in the past, he also made great contributions to the planning of Taihu Territory.
It can be said that it is these buildings and the location of the territory that allow the entire Taihu Territory to gain a firm foothold in the New World.
If you really count the two, they don't owe each other anything.
And now, Old Zhan clearly wants to deepen the relationship between the two and let him owe some.
This is a win-win situation.
After gently taking it, Fan Fuzheng nodded heavily: "Thanks to you for taking care of our family in all aspects this year, don't worry, after going to Sushen Territory, I will never forget our Taihu Territory!"
"Okay, with your words, I am completely relieved."
Hearing this solemn promise, Lao Zhan nodded, and his eyes softened a lot.
Although he did not expect Fan Fuzheng to bring back anything in the end.
But in the wasteland.
Sometimes it is such a vague thought that can support people to fall again and again, and get up again and again.
"Let's go, I won't watch you leave, otherwise I'm afraid of envy."
Waving his hand, Lao Zhan took people away on his own.
Watching several backs disappear in the morning mist, Fan Fuzheng pinched the pistol in his arms, and couldn't help but feel relieved.
Relying only on two iron spears, the family is not good at fighting.
Even with the attribute point bonus given by the route, there may still be dangers that cannot be handled.
But with this pistol, everything is different!
"As long as I have this pistol."
"Even if aliens come, I have the ability to make them afraid."
Fan Fuzheng murmured, and his heart was relieved, and some fear disappeared.
When he returned home to show his wife and children this light, the family also felt at ease.
It was close to eight o'clock.
As more and more people got up, the streets of Fan's courtyard were soon crowded with people.
For such a magical teleportation, although most people said they didn't envy it, they were still looking forward to it in their hearts.
There were even many people who wanted to teleport themselves away and tried their best to get closer to the front row.
No choice, don't hit a smiling person.
It was almost time to leave, and Fan Fuzheng was embarrassed to turn everyone away.
He could only explain again and again that the game's teleportation quota had been selected long ago, and there was no way to bring anyone with him.
"Don't worry, when I settle down there, I will definitely talk to Lord Su about our Taihu territory. Maybe Lord Su will send troops to collect you at that time."
"Army, yes, Lord Su told me that his territory has a regular army!"
"Specific location? I really don't know. Lord Su didn't say it, and I don't even know the name of the territory."
"My yard, the supplies I left behind will be distributed by Lao Zhan, and I won't take them away."
There are familiar faces and unfamiliar faces in the territory of more than 3,000 people.
After answering a few high-frequency questions, the turbulent crowd finally calmed down.
At this time, there were only a few minutes left before the teleportation.
"Sister Hong, I'm leaving. Take care of yourself."
"Brother Liu, thanks to your care in the past, we will remember you forever!"
"Baolin, you won't feel cold wearing so little. Go get the flowered cloth in my room later and I'll pull a single layer of clothes for you."
"Live well, live well!"
Zheng Yali smiled and said goodbye to her familiar neighbors again.
At this time, not only Fan Fuzheng, but also Zheng Yali and the two children were no longer as reluctant as they were yesterday.
Compared to staying in this familiar land and continuing to live, it is obviously more exciting to go to another strange but desirable place.
There was only one minute left.
After carrying the package on his back, Fan Fuzheng and Zheng Yali stood by, and Fan Han and Fan Jing stood in the middle.
Just like when they entered the Wanjing Arena.
The four held hands, and their figures gradually faded slowly under the gaze of thousands of people until
they disappeared completely!
"Gone?"
Some people suddenly realized, some were disappointed, and some sighed.
Entering the New World from the deep sea, most of them were looking for opportunities and wanted to change their fate.
However, how many people are really like Fan Fuzheng who not only took action but also risked everything?
I couldn't figure this out, nor did I want to figure it out.
The crowded crowd gradually dispersed, and the streets soon returned to their usual deserted appearance.
Central New World.
Qinggang City.
Unlike the south where only dark clouds gathered, the central part began to drizzle at night because of the lower terrain.
Compared with the past, since the Qinggang Shelter took in most of the wanderers in the city, some of the remaining wanderers were abducted by the Tianyuan Territory and major shelters.
Without these people, the various underground infrastructures left over from the city naturally had problems of varying sizes.
Like now.
Most of the large and small sewers have been blocked by the feces of radioactive beasts or the ruins of collapsed buildings because no one has cleaned them for a long time.
As countless raindrops fell wantonly on the ground, washing away the dilapidated and uninhabited buildings in the city, bringing out streams of muddy water that could only accumulate on the ground.
And once the accumulated water is too much, it will form a flood that cannot be drained for several days.
The flood will continue to breed bacteria, and over time, it will form a highly threatening plague.
Under such a chain reaction, it is no exaggeration to say.
Today's Qinggang City has become more and more dilapidated, like a ghost town that has not been visited for decades.
Even the small radioactive beasts that appear sporadically will be worried about the existing living environment.
And just at this time.
In an area near the southern suburbs of the city, a faint sound suddenly appeared on the empty waterlogged street.
Several radioactive lizards that were originally nesting in the corners of the ruins of the building were immediately attracted.
I saw that there was only a faint space distortion at the beginning of the sound.
But as the distortion suddenly swung to the surrounding ground, four figures suddenly appeared in the middle of the street.
Click.
The sound of stagnant water being trampled was heard.
Realizing that the transmission was over, Fan Fuzheng subconsciously raised his head and was suddenly stunned.
"This is"
As far as the eye could see, there were several high-rise buildings of at least 40 floors around the street.
Most of the windows of the high-rise buildings were broken, and the inside was dark, like the open mouth of a devil.
On the surface of the building, some algae that had dried up due to the cooling had lost their original color and turned mainly into pale yellow and black.
At first glance, it looked like it was bombed by artillery shells, which made people feel sad and inexplicably afraid.
"Is this the territory of Su Shen?"
Fan Jing, who was in his early twenties, was at his most courageous. Seeing this scene in front of him, although he was also frightened, he was more curious.
It must be said that the dilapidated city in front of him did look like an earth city after a disaster at the first glance.
Almost all the high-rise buildings were abandoned, and even the shops on both sides of the street seemed to have been looted.
Wait
Noticed that there seemed to be a lot of words engraved on the pillars inside the open shop.
Although it looks very different from Chinese characters, the structure of the characters is similar.
Fan Jing was stunned and quickly patted Fan Fuzheng.
"Dad, there seems to be words engraved on that pillar?"
"Huh?"
Fan Fuzheng turned his head and found traces of words on the pillar following the direction of the finger.
It looks familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere before?
"No, this is Blue Star text!"
Suddenly, Fan Fuzheng tensed up, remembering where he had seen such strange glyphs.
At the inn, when I went to buy a gun with Lao Zhan.
When merchants in the black market offer rewards for information about Blue Star people, they use this kind of strange text.
Although the style of the characters on the pillars is different from the current ones, the general structure is exactly the same.
"No, I'm afraid we made a transmission error. This is the city of Blue Star people!"
Fan Fuzheng shouted loudly and quickly tightened his grip on the pistol in his arms.
The family was still shocked by the surrounding environment just now, but now after reacting, they realized the seriousness of the problem.
After the game was transferred, they were not dropped directly into Somo's territory, but into a strange Blue Star city.
These ruins, this water, this
Looking around, he suddenly saw four radioactive lizards slowly lurking in the corner.
Fan Fuzheng suddenly tensed up and pulled his wife Zheng Yali and daughter Fan Han behind him.
"Fan Jing, take the iron spear, there is a radioactive beast!"
If there is a possibility that the Blue Star text is a misjudgment, then the radiation lizard appearing in the Radiation Beast Illustrated Book is irrefutable proof.
In the past, I always heard players discussing this kind of creature on the world channel. Now after seeing it with my own eyes, Fan Fuzheng understood how bad the living environment of humans in the New World is.
These four lizards were comparable in size to crocodiles. Each one was more than one meter long. The raised sarcoma on their bodies stood out like spikes, leaving no one in doubt about what would happen if they were stabbed.
It's hard to imagine if I hadn't noticed these beasts being attacked by surprise just now.
I'm afraid that before there is time to celebrate the arrival of a new life, the family will have to prepare for a funeral, or even die in a foreign country.
"Ah, it's the Radiant Beast."
"There's one from behind, there's one coming from behind too!"
In the past, it was okay when I had no brains and no ability to think. I was so hungry that the radiation beasts dared to swarm up and attack the homeless people passing by, even when faced with the shelter guards who were armed with live ammunition.
But now I have some thinking ability and know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Facing humans with thermal weapons, how dare the radiation beasts dare to challenge them?
It's been a long time since meat was eaten in this neighborhood, and even if a few people appeared a bit strange, the hungry radioactive beasts couldn't care less.
On the streets filled with water, more and more radiation beasts, large and small, began to emerge.
In the blink of an eye, an internal and external siege was formed, leaving no way to escape.
"These beasts, these beasts are intelligent, they are surrounding us!"
"Quick, get your spears too, we're going to rush out!"
I have never experienced such a scene surrounded by hundreds of radioactive beasts.
The four members of the Fan family, including Fan Fu, were immediately frightened and their brains almost shut down on the spot.
Fortunately, the bonus brought by the attribute points at this moment is not fake, and it gives people enough reaction ability in dangerous situations.
Subconsciously, Fan Fuzheng pulled out his pistol and pulled the trigger on several lizards that were about to charge forward.
boom!
There are only a few meters left, where is the need to aim.
As a violent roar sounded, the lizard that rushed the fastest was head-exploded, and the blood and flesh spurted out splashed all over the ground.
efficient!
Radiant Beast just looks scary!
The sense of security that a pistol brings to people is undoubtedly sufficient, even if there are only fifteen errors and only fourteen bullets left.
Fan Fu was looking around at the suddenly stopped offensive, and continued to calmly pull the trigger.
A radioactive spider was hit by a bullet, and a large stream of black-green blood spattered from its abdomen.
Although it was not fatal, it frightened the radiation beasts around who were still trying to charge forward and immediately stepped back.
Damn it, these people have weapons after all.
The radiation beast's small head couldn't figure out much, and could only vaguely connect Fan Fuzheng with the southern suburbs shelter guards who cleaned up the neighborhood from time to time.
Experience tells them that as long as those terrifying weapons are there, no matter how many there are, they will only die.
withdraw!
The siege was dispersed as quickly as it came.
Seeing the radiation beasts coming in like a tide, they completely disappeared in just a few minutes.
If it weren't for the lizard corpse on the ground still twitching slightly, several people would have thought they were hallucinating.
"Quick, retreat into that shop."
A strong sense of uneasiness brewed in Fan Fuzheng's heart.
Although he didn't know why this teleportation brought them here, all he could do at this moment was to place his hope on the available contact frequency band reported by Soma.
Otherwise, living in such a chaotic and dangerous Blue Star city, at night, I’m afraid
My mind is confused, and my eyes are also confused.
Keenly aware that there seemed to be a figure flickering at the end of the street, Fan Fuzheng subconsciously picked up his pistol and took aim.
However, as the figure became clearer, he noticed the opponent's iconic Blue Star facial features, as well as the sophisticated standard equipment he was wearing and the cold black rifle in his hand.
Fan Fuzheng could only smile bitterly, and his whole body was leaning on the spot like a sculpture.
Maybe you don’t have to wait for the night anymore!
