Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 23 Humanoid Excavator

This place is a city. Judging from the wreckage of the collapsed buildings, the size of the city can be judged. It is not too big, but it is not small either.

Here, there is no road, and everyone can only hesitate to move forward in the barely passable place. The light of the fluorite lamp illuminates a part of the surrounding darkness. The tall and incomplete outlines of dilapidated buildings are like monsters lurking in the darkness.

In this darkness, it seems that there are still some pioneers wandering. The green light of the fluorite lamps held by the pioneers in the distance looks like a floating will-o’-the-wisp, which makes people feel inexplicably Chill.

Sensing the tense atmosphere of the people around him, Zhang Tie switched his vision between dark vision and normal vision, and found that under normal vision, this ruin is like an ancient tomb in the city, which will indeed bring a lot of pressure to people , and in the dark vision, what Zhang Tie saw was a bleak desolation.

In those large and incomplete tall buildings, Zhang Tie felt the development of human civilization before the catastrophe.

In Zhang Tie's field of vision, many of the collapsed buildings he saw were high-rise buildings with a height of hundreds of meters. At the places where those buildings were broken and toppled, Zhang Tie saw a barren strip exposed among those buildings. The steel bars and the huge and twisted steel structure, those steel bars and steel structures, like the fishbone on a fish or the skeleton of a monster, look extraordinarily intimidating.

At least in the field of architecture, the heights that humans could reach before the cataclysm are unmatched by humans today. Zhang Tie compared the cities he had seen with the city in front of him, and found that even the most prosperous city in his opinion The tallest buildings in Yiyang City seem to be dwarfed by the ruins and wreckage of the tall buildings in the city in front of them.

On the road that Zhang Tie and the others were passing by, there were large pieces of reinforced concrete fragments that had fallen from the buildings everywhere, blocking the way of everyone, so everyone had to detour.

Also on such a roadside, Zhang Tie also saw a lot of vehicles before the catastrophe that had turned into a rusty iron shell. A railroad train or something, with many long carriages.

There are also some weird wreckages that even Zhang Tie can't tell what they are.

Seeing these things, for some reason, what Zhang Tie thought of was the natural history teacher when he was studying in Heiyancheng No. 7 Middle School. The biggest dream of that teacher in his life was to visit such a relic. , but unfortunately, for an ordinary person, such a dream is indeed a bit far away.

"Ah..." On the road ahead, a soldier suddenly screamed and fell to the ground. Everyone took out their weapons at once and formed a defensive alert formation. They looked around vigilantly, thinking that they were being attacked Here comes the attack.

Zhang Tie hurried over and found that the soldier was hugging his feet, and a sharp object protruded from the soldier's instep, which seemed to be a nail.

The injured soldier was healed very quickly. It was indeed a nail that pierced the soldier's shoe and sole, a nail from before the cataclysm. One end of the nail was nailed to a piece of concrete that fell to the ground. , and the sharp side is facing upwards, the soldier stepped on it accidentally just now, and was injured all of a sudden.

After others took out the nail and wiped it clean, Zhang Tie took it over to have a look, even after so many years,

The surface of that nail is still black and bright, with only a little rust. There is no doubt that this is still the embodiment of human science level at the time of the cataclysm.

"Everyone pay attention to your feet!" Someone in the team shouted.

"I think it's almost time to find a place to settle down first!" Zhang Tie said looking at Aurora. When he came to the place where the ruins were, the team's first goal of entering the underground was almost achieved, even if Aurora What other ideas do you have with Nurdo? Unless the two of them know exactly the exact location of the super ruins that may exist, it would be a waste of time for such a large group of people to go on the road together. The range that can be searched in one day, if you take these people together, it will take about ten days to turn around.

Aurora and Nurdo glanced at each other.

"The team has been walking underground for so many days, and it is indeed time to take a rest here. The ruins are right in front of us. For these fighters, if they stop searching here and continue on the road, everyone's morale will be affected! If you're lucky, you can make some money here." Nurdo was the first to agree with Zhang Tie's idea.

Aurora glanced at the soldiers who were constantly looking around with mixed eyes of curiosity and excitement, and nodded, "Okay, everyone, let's find a place to camp first!"

"Finally I can find a place to take a good bath!" Sabrina also laughed. In the past few days, the women have been fine, and each of them likes to be clean, while the men already have a smell on their bodies. Yes, Zhang Tie has the best smell among men. Zhang Tie doesn't know if it's because of the fruits he ate or because he drank too much potion. Anyway, although his body is also dusty, he also He also sweated, but there was not much sour smell on his body. According to Sabrina, the smell on Zhang Tie's body was the fresh and masculine scent of grass that had been exposed to the summer sun.

Now that the four most important people in the team had made a unanimous decision, the team settled down next to a collapsed building after continuing on for a few kilometers.

The building covers an area of ​​more than 6,000 square meters. Of course, it is impossible for the collapsed building to collapse again. Zhang Tie's camp is located at the angle between the collapsed part and the uncollapsed part of the building. A relatively open place. There are barriers on both sides of this place, which is relatively hidden and safe.

Just after setting up his tent, Zhang Tie saw Holm and Gerry walking towards him, gave him a wink, and the three left the camp, and found a place hundreds of meters away from the camp. Hidden place stopped.

"The place where Holm and I found the wrapping paper of that ham sausage is not far from here!" Gerry looked around and said in a low voice.

"Oh, is it nearby?" Zhang Tie asked.

"Yes, it's in a cave on the eastern edge of the city, less than forty kilometers away!" Home added from the side, pointing in that direction while talking.

"Judging from the tribal alliance's determination to enter the underground ruins and the signs that Jinpeng Bank has stepped in the middle, I think they already know that there are super ruins here. The tribe, it can be said that they all came for the super ruins. The information you two discovered is very important to them. At least it can greatly shorten the time they spend searching for the super ruins underground. You discovered this information, so you The two have full discretion! If you two decide to use this information to make a deal with them, I can guarantee the safety of both of you, and if you don't intend to do so, I will not find you to tell others!"

Zhang Tie looked at Sam and Gerry with sincere eyes. Neither Sam nor Gerry thought that Zhang Tie could say such a thing, and they were a little moved. At this time, they can restrain themselves under the temptation of the super relic He is greedy and always considers the two of them. Both Sam and Gerry feel that they have read Zhang Tie right.

"I understand what you mean, but Sam and I are very well prepared this time. The two of us plan to find a chance to go deep into the cave and have a look. If it doesn't work, we will consider making a deal with them!"

Zhang Tie nodded. It’s understandable that Sam and Gerry’s purpose is to seek money. If you give up without trying it yourself, this is really not in line with the character of the pioneers. “Then when are you going to go?”

"Two days!" Gerry replied, "we'll go together then!"

Zhang Tie nodded. Gerry is really cunning. Today is about seven or eight hours before going to bed at night. If it is conspicuous and you wander here for two days before going, then it will not arouse suspicion.

"Actually, there is still a huge room for excavation in this city. If it weren't for the super ruins that may exist, it would already be a perfect treasure trove of ruins for the pioneers!" Gerry continued.

"Oh is there anything else here?"

"Of course, at least the city's bank vaults have not been discovered. Apart from the bank vaults, the valuable things in this city, such as the jewelry in the jewelry stores buried in the ruins, The things in the safes of the rich people, even those top-quality crystals that were used as ordinary decorations and directly used as chandeliers before the cataclysm, are all valuable things compared to the handicrafts and artworks before the cataclysm Ah!" exclaimed Sam.

"If there are a few museums in this city, the things that can be preserved in the museums are also very valuable!" Gerry added, "The well-preserved books and materials in the library can be sold at a high price outside! "

Zhang Tie did not expect that so many tricks could be found in this ruins. Looking at the city ruins with an area of ​​more than one hundred square kilometers, it is estimated that the things that the two guys, Home and Gerry, still have. Really a lot. However, looking at the large pieces of building wreckage among the collapsed ruins, one can see that in order to make a fortune here, in addition to luck, strength also seems to be essential.

"The two of you have said so much, so do you have any goals now, and where is the most valuable place in this city?"

"Generally speaking, according to the habits of human beings before the cataclysm, the place with the most high-rise buildings is the golden zone of the city. In this kind of place, the possibility of high-end stores and banks is much higher than in other places. Even ordinary banks There is no vault, but there is also a rental business of safes, where there is also a lot of money, and the rich usually live in villas with better scenery in the suburbs of the city, of course, not absolutely!"

Following Gerry's words, Zhang Tie couldn't help looking at the place in the distance with the most fluorite lamps wandering around. There, it should be the place where the city has the most ruins of high-rise buildings. Several buildings have collapsed but The incomplete part still has a building more than 100 meters high, which is very conspicuous. It seems that other pioneers are not stupid.

"Is that where you are talking about? Which area seems to have more fluorite lamps?" Zhang Tie pointed in that direction. The distance from here is about ten kilometers, and it doesn't look too far away.

"If we remember correctly, the busiest business district in this city should be there when we came last time!" Sam thought about it and nodded affirmatively.

"Why don't we go and have a look now, anyway, it's still early today and it won't take much time to go back and forth!" Thinking of the things hidden in the ruins mentioned by Gerry and Sam just now, Zhang Tie suddenly When the interest comes, I don't say whether I can get rich immediately, but this is a very interesting treasure hunting experience.

Gerry and Sam looked at each other and nodded.

At that moment, the three of them didn't delay, and Zhang Tie took the lead directly, and the three of them trotted over there.

Nuerdo in the camp had been secretly watching Zhang Tie's whereabouts and performance. Seeing Zhang Tie and his two pioneer friends running towards the distance together, Nuerdo beckoned to one of his friends. Ji Ling's subordinates ran over at once, and Nurdo didn't even say anything.

He just lifted his chin to indicate Zhang Tie's leaving direction, and his jittery subordinate quietly disappeared into the darkness.

After putting down the 70 to 80 kilograms of luggage and supplies on their backs, Gerry and Sam ran at a fast speed, with a distance of more than ten kilometers, even if they had to bypass many ruins and obstacles in the middle , but for three people, it took about half an hour to get there.

When he arrived in that area, Zhang Tie found that many pioneers were wandering there, and many pioneers were using tools to rummage through the ruins and damaged buildings to find something.

"Why don't these people look for it somewhere? I think there should be something there?" Zhang Tie said as soon as he arrived here, pointing to a piece of ruins. The ruins were a relatively low building in the middle of the two buildings. , only as high as a five or six-story building, because the upper part of the building collapsed, and some debris such as ruins and concrete blocks that fell from the two buildings directly buried most of the low building.

"Things may or may not be everywhere. But it takes too much time and energy to clean up the ruins around that building. Ten people may not be able to clean them out after working here for a week, and no one knows what's there. Things, if the things inside are worthless, the time, energy, and supplies lost will be too great. For such uncertain places, it is not worthwhile to waste time here." Gerry explained.

Zhang Tie looked at the location of the pile of ruins, and felt that the location should be the location of the "belt water" that Tang De said. The so-called "belt water" is a term in the Eastern Continent. Sometimes, people like to open the shop at the obtuse angle of the intersection or the inner circle of the arc. This position is the "belt water". It's easier to do. The grocery store that Zhang Tie used to be in is a store at the "belt water" next to the train station.

In fact, Zhang Tie didn't know the basis or particularity of the so-called "belt water", but looking at the ruins in front of him, he instinctively thought that the location seemed to be "belt water", so he was eager to try it. The logic here is——a building that can be in the waistline water level of this kind of bustling business district can never be a steamed bun seller or a public toilet. The principle of value maximization.

"If you want to go to other places to see, you can go, but don't go too far from here. If you need it, call me. I plan to clean up the ruins and take a look. Just treat it as fun, even if there is nothing It’s nothing.” Zhang Tie said with an indifferent attitude, instead of trying his luck everywhere without purpose, it’s better to try it here, Zhang Tie rolled up his sleeves as he said, ready to do a big job.

"Ah, Peter, are you crazy? Even if you work here for half a month..." Gerry was about to persuade him, but when he saw Zhang Tie's movements, his eyelids jumped involuntarily.

Zhang Tie, who ran to the ruins, grabbed a concrete block weighing 500-600 kilograms with only one hand, and then threw the concrete block 30 meters away like throwing a banana peel. There was a loud bang.

Both Home and Gerry were dumbfounded.

"Pinch me, I'm not dreaming, I just saw..."

In the blink of an eye, another broken cement formwork of almost the same weight was roughly pulled out from the pile of ruins by Zhang Tie, and then thrown aside at will.

Then, in just a short while, large pieces of building ruins were thrown out by Zhang Tie.

Home and Gerry were already stunned. They glanced at each other, and they both saw the same question in each other's eyes—this guy couldn't be a steam excavator disguised as a human. The machine is even higher.

Twenty-seven seven-power fruits, together with the powerful strength of the seventh-level fighters and the highly flexible limbs of human beings, Zhang Tie's efficiency at the moment is simply terrifying.

The huge movement here also attracted many pioneers who wandered in this place in the distance. When those pioneers saw Zhang Tie's terrifying power and even threw away more than a ton of ruins and rubbish, one by one Completely petrified.

Zhang Tie put on the Gloves of the Dark Ripper. With the cooperation of Iron Blood Battle Qi, his hands could even be inserted into stones, and he could easily shatter many things, lift them up, and throw them away.

In just half an hour, Zhang Tie had cleared out a small piece of the ruins and concrete blocks that buried the building.

Finally, a heavyweight concrete block weighing more than seven or eight tons appeared in front of Zhang Tie, blocking Zhang Tie's way forward.

Zhang Tie ran away...

Many people breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they could rest their hearts, Zhang Tie ran back again, holding a three-meter-long I-beam picked up from other ruins in his hand. Tie used the I-beam as a lever, found a stone and put it under the overweight concrete ruins to pry it, and the blocker weighing more than seven or eight tons was also removed by Zhang Tie.

In the following five hours, Zhang Tie was digging tirelessly. With the help of the pair of Dark Ripper gloves and the super-powerful lever, and under the incredible eyes of a lot of pioneers, Among the ruins, a passage was opened that could just allow a person to enter and exit.

Finally, a wall of that low building was exposed...

Without even thinking about it, Zhang Tie picked up the I-beam and smashed it against the wall...

In a puff of dusty smoke, a hole appeared...
