Chapter 712 A Place Full of War

The short and dangerous ambush ended. The enemy was not completely wiped out. Instead, they took the initiative to retreat after realizing that they had lost the advantage of the ambush. Hao Ren returned to the mercenaries and happened to see Nolan jumping down from the weapons station platform on top of the truck. The girl who seemed to be only a teenager still had a dull look on her face, as if what had just happened It was just a phantom, and she didn't feel any panic or anger at all.

"Heaton rebelled and defected to the Rangers," Nolan explained to his team members what had just happened in the car with a calm expression. "It was my oversight."

Hao Ren recalled the scene where she fought back with a minigun on the roof of the truck despite the surrounding firepower. It could almost be said that she exposed herself to a hail of bullets. Although the tactics were brave, they were more reckless, but as an outsider, he could not What's the point of commenting? I can only smile and nod: "You were so powerful just now."

Ulanov said in a muffled voice: "The boss fights without risking his life, but she always survives to the end. This is the luck of the gray fox."

Nolan shook his head: "There were times when you were unlucky, but you won't remember it... Let's not talk about it. Are you really a civilian?"

Her last words were of course addressed to Hao Ren. As soon as she finished speaking, several other mercenaries around her also turned their doubtful gazes. Although Hao Ren didn't use any superhuman strength just now, for a civilian to be able to take down several firepower points with his bare hands under the eyes of professional soldiers is as surreal as if it had special effects added. Ulanov nodded to Nolan: "He knows how to fight, and his movements when finding bunkers and taking action are also very professional. This is by no means the first time he has been on the battlefield."

"If you really want me to explain... I can make up a few excuses," Hao Ren said. He is not afraid of boiling water. He only wanted to go it alone after breaking up the team, so he spoke very straightforwardly. "Anyway, I don't know how to tell you." Explain this phenomenon.”

"Forget it, I'm not interested in your skills." Nolan looked at Hao Ren for a while, shook his head indifferently, and handed something over casually, "Thank you for your help just now. This is your gold, you can take it." Back home, we pay attention to fair trade."

Hao Ren was not polite and took back his gold nugget, and then Nolan took out another gold nugget and handed it over: "Besides, this is the gold you just threw out... I am very curious about how rich you are. Do you usually hit people with gold?"

Hao Ren finally knew what the hidden weapon he just took out from his pocket was...

The surrounding mercenaries looked at Hao Ren as if they were looking at an alien creature: they were wandering around in a lawless zone unarmed, carrying half a pound of gold as travel expenses, without any sense of protecting themselves, and carelessly throwing gold at them. Man, when everyone thought he was a rich man with a bad brain, he killed several professional soldiers with his bare hands... Where did this weird thing come from? Is his main symptom the brain or the brain or the brain?

Hao Ren knew that the more he explained, the more trouble he would get, so he simply said nothing. He just smiled harmlessly, bent down and picked up the blond girl: the temporary body of the data terminal. "Let's leave quickly, it's not a good place to stay for a long time."

"Are you still taking her with you?" Ulanov asked in surprise.

Hao Ren nodded dumbfounded: "Of course, if you leave this guy alone, I will be annoyed to death by it."

Nolan opened his mouth and swallowed back the words "she is dead" that had reached his throat. Several other mercenaries also looked at each other and explained Hao Ren's abnormal behavior: This man may have gone crazy.

The mercenaries got on the truck and left this place of right and wrong, with Nolan driving the car himself. The interior of this car has been modified, and the entire carriage is a mobile military station. Since the weapons station platform has been raised to the top of the carriage, the space inside appears to be very spacious. Hao Ren saw a corpse lying on the ground in the middle of the carriage with its head blown off. That was the traitor "Headon" in Nolan's mouth. This soldier was originally responsible for driving to pick up the crowd, but somehow he got involved with the enemy.

It seems that in this place called the lawless zone, the situation is more chaotic than imagined.

"Both newcomers are dead," Nolan's voice came from the direction of the driver's seat. "Heaton is also dead. The other groups have also suffered heavy losses recently. We must find ways to replenish manpower after we return."

"Tsk, I quite like those two new recruits," the only female mercenary in the team except Nolan spat on the ground, "They are both good men... I still think about it after I go back today. Use them to eat meat."

Hao Ren suddenly choked and coughed. This sister seemed to have a very unrestrained lifestyle.

Except for Nolan, who was driving in front, there were only four mercenaries left in the carriage. The two young soldiers who were called "newcomers" and were responsible for recovering equipment on the battlefield were dead, and because they were He was directly hit by the enemy's large-caliber weapon, and even the body was difficult to recover. In the end, only the nameplate was pulled off as a souvenir. The mercenaries talked about their comrades who had just died in the battle, and their voices were somewhat sad and lonely, but other than that, they had no other feelings. These were people who were used to seeing life and death, dying on the battlefield, especially in this chaotic world. The lawless zone... has become commonplace.

Hao Ren looked at Nolan who was concentrating on driving through the bulletproof window in front of the carriage. He suddenly remembered something and kicked Heaton's body that fell in the carriage with his toes: "Speaking of which, since the car has a cannon, why is this traitor... Didn't that guy just use the machine cannon to deal with us? If he had that thing, he would have done it long ago."

Nolan raised a hand to brush the hair on the back of his head and replied without looking back: "All the heavy weapons on this car require my physical connection to activate."

The long gray hair was lifted up, revealing a piece of silver light on the back of his neck. Hao Ren saw that a mirror-like metal object was embedded on the back of Nolan's neck, and there were grooves on the edge of the metal object, which seemed to be able to opened.

He remembered some of the knowledge he had heard about this world before, and asked hesitantly: "Are you a second-generation evolver?"

"Do the current extreme naturalist schools not even teach this anymore?" Nolan's voice sounded a little helpless, "Only the first generation of evolvers will have such visible modifications, and the second generation of electronic parts It's implanted in the body right after birth, and it can't be seen from the outside at all."

Ulanov pointed to the blond girl (corpse) next to Hao Ren: "Isn't your girlfriend the second generation? She never told you about this?"

"This is really not my girlfriend..." Hao Ren couldn't laugh or cry, "This is actually... forget it, you can think whatever you want, I'm still confused."

The car gradually drove away from the dilapidated urban area and entered the even more dilapidated suburbs. Through the narrow bulletproof side window, Hao Ren saw a barren land outside, with almost no plants visible. The ground looked like it had been soaked in concentrated acid, showing strange pits and dissolution. Looking at this miserable situation, he couldn't help but wonder to what extent the war in this world had spread - according to the few words leaked from the previous conversations between the mercenaries, it seemed that there was no peaceful paradise on the entire planet, and battles of all sizes had already begun. It has penetrated the entire world, and even those "peaceful city-states" where civilians live together are actually just surviving under the protection of the army as a feeding ground for a certain legion.

Hao Ren felt the shoulders next to him sink. He turned around and saw that the blonde girl had fallen on top of him. Her completely lifeless body was shaking with the bumps of the vehicle. He stretched out his hand to steady this girl, whom he had never met before but was mistaken for his lover. He felt a little emotional in his heart. At the same time, he began to guess what kind of person this girl "parasitized" by the data terminal was, where she came from, and why. Will appear in this chaotic war and eventually die tragically.

These are just boring thoughts.

"How long have we been 'dreaming'?" Hao Ren asked casually in his mind, "Does your family know what's going on here?"

"It has been more than four hours. Vivian just tried to wake you up, but the machine blocked it," the data terminal replied lazily. It seemed that it was very boring to be trapped in an unfamiliar body, "Let's It’s better to explore here more. And to be honest, you don’t want to disappear suddenly in front of others.”

The data terminal can still control its own body in the surface world when its consciousness enters the dream plane, so in this case it acts as a mouthpiece between the dream plane and the surface world.

"What are your plans next?" Ulanov's voice suddenly came, interrupting Hao Ren's thinking.
