Chapter 67 Night City (recommendation ticket required)

After taking the remaining food, a group of five people left Room 605 and went down the stairs to the first floor.

“Driving there?” Jiang Baiman glanced at the Jeep Road parked on the side.

The black marsh iron snake skin tied to the roof is so conspicuous that no one pays attention to the solar charging panel.

“The movement is too loud.” Qiao Chu shook his head.

Jiang Baiman wanted to say that this is an electric car. As long as the simulated sound waves are turned off, there will be almost no much movement. Unexpectedly, Qiao Chu, wearing an external skeleton device, suddenly trot and left a sentence Words:

“Keep up!”

Jiang Baiman said nothing, and together with Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen, holding their weapons, they ran towards the exit in small steps.

At this time, there are many clouds in the high altitude, only a few sparse stars can be seen, and the moon occasionally shows a little face, sprinkling a faint glow.

Darkness is the main color of the ruins of this city.

In the extremely quiet and dead environment, Shang Jianyao and others did not turn on their flashlights, trotting through the main road and into the opposite street.

During this process, they always feel like they are being swallowed up by the dark night, and the surrounding abandoned cars and trees along the road are shadowy, like a monster hidden in the dark.

Faced with such a situation, the “old tune group” naturally spread out in accordance with the usual training and pulled a certain distance.

Among them, Jiang Baiman is closely behind Qiao Chu, Long Yuehong is on the right, Bai Chen is on the left, and Shang Jianyao is at the end.

Their speed has always been kept within a certain range, so that they will not ignore the observation and vigilance of the all around environment because of running.

Running, Shang Jianyao suddenly changed direction and rushed into an open room on the left side of the street.

Jiang Baiman and others reacted to the stress, rolled on the spot, and each found an abandoned car for defense.

Qiao Chu also stopped and turned to look at Shang Jianyao.

The “comprehensive early warning system” of the external skeleton device told him that there was no abnormality around him.

However, he still raised the rather peculiar silver rifle to prevent accidents.

He immediately used the “comprehensive early warning system” to observe Shang Jianyao’s destination.

Although it is a very bleak night in rays of light, Qiao Chu has auxiliary equipment, and he can easily see the situation on the left side of the street from a long distance.

Like other streets, the side-by-side, outward-facing rooms are almost all open. Inside, they are either dilapidated or very old. The only thing in common is that no life can be seen.

Some of their signboards fell to the ground and shattered into several pieces, some were mottled and faded, the handwriting was blurred, some words were missing, and only parts were left, and some were hanging diagonally and would not fall.

As for the room that Shang Jianyao rushed into, the sign was still hanging on the top, with blue as the bottom, and only two white characters left:

“…Maintenance…”

At this time, Shang Jianyao took off the flashlight and took photos in the narrow room.

He quickly opened various cabinets and found some small instruments and tools, as well as various components and circuits with and without packaging, and stuffed them into the camouflage backpack.

Putting on the backpack again and hanging up the flashlight, Shang Jianyao trot back to the street with the “Berserker” assault rifle.

At first sight of Qiao wearing a helmet, he rushed over in several strides.

Based on his experience, once he “follows” him, unless he shows the intention to attack actively, no one will make his own way, and will inevitably follow his instructions. Even if there are doubts and doubts, he should always ask and Give suggestion.

At this point, Jiang Baiman, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen behaved sufficiently “normal”.

In front of Shang Jianyao, Qiao Chu solemnly asked:

“Why leave the team without authorization?”

Shang Jianyao replied calmly:

“Brain pumping.”

“…” Qiao Chu’s eyes narrowed, and Shang Jianyao’s silhouette appeared on the goggles in a relatively abstract state, approaching the target.

This is the “precision aiming system” that was naturally initiated by him raising the silver rifle.

After a few seconds of silence, Qiao Chu breathed out slowly and lowered his muzzle:
“Continue to the destination.”

Although his voice is not loud, Jiang Baiman and others have been paying attention to the situation here, and quickly left the hiding place and returned to the team.

The five people once again ran toward the three-way intersection at the end of the street in accordance with the formation and posture just now.

In the ruins of this city, the wind at night was a little bit cold, making Long Yuehong seem to have returned to the “Pangu Creatures”, after turning off the lights.

As he quickly turned to the left road, he couldn’t help but look up and glance at the sky.

Since coming to the surface, his first wish is to see the real sky, his second wish is to see the sun shining on everything, and his third wish is to see the starry sky shown in the textbook.

Now, he has fulfilled his first and second biggest wishes, and only the third one has been delayed.

——The weather has been abnormal for a long time recently, the night is always cloudy, only a few stars and part of the moon can be seen occasionally, and this completely can’t be called the starry sky.

I don’t know when I can see the real stars…Long Yuehong just retracted his gaze, he saw Qiao Chu and Jiang Baiman almost simultaneously raising their hands, aiming at a place, and pulling the trigger.

The only difference is that Jiang Baiman first drew out the “United 202” and didn’t use a grenade gun.

pa! Bang!
Two slightly different voices sounded one after another.

With the silver lightning flashed, on a street tree in the middle of the street on the right, a silhouette of torn clothes and partially exposed parts fell straight down and crashed on the top of the abandoned car.

His blood quickly spread.

The crude shotgun in his hand flew out and fell on the road.

“A ‘unintentional’.” Jiang Baiman held the grenade gun firmly with his left arm.

Her night vision ability is obviously better than that of an ordinary person.

Bai Chen subconsciously asked:
“Do you want to pick up that gun?”

“The gun is no longer needed. It seems that the gun was made by some wilderness wanderers settlement. It is unnecessary.” Jiang Baiman shook his head.

The old world annihilation has been around for many years, many guns have been useless, many size bullets have been exhausted, and the major forces with a certain production capacity imitated the old world weapons at the beginning to facilitate the maximum use of materials Later, in the past several decades, internal standardization has gradually started-although this is definitely a reference to the weapons of the past, many types have been reduced.

As a result, many relic hunters and wilderness wanderers have obtained guns that are either broken and cannot be repaired, or they are slowly unable to find suitable bullets. They have to increase their efforts to search for the ruins or buy power The smuggled arms, on the one hand, try to make homemade weapons and bullets.

Among the latter, the shotgun is undoubtedly a good choice. The equipment required is quite simple, and many settlements are available for the wilderness wanderers.

Such a shotgun fell on the hands of the “unintentional”, indicating that it is likely that relic hunters or wilderness wanderers have been hunted.

“Do you want to search?” Bai Chen asked again.

“No.” Qiao Chu, who had just used an external skeleton device electromagnetic weapon, replied while turning his body.

Bai Chen stopped insisting, and a group of five people continued to trot towards the predetermined destination.

After turning another street, Qiao Chu suddenly slowed down.

Jiang Baiman also raised his hand and pressed down, signalling Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong to stop.

With a brighter moonlight than before, Shang Jianyao saw a gray and black abandoned car ahead.

Next to the car, there is a person sitting on the ground.

This person has a square-faced face and is wearing the so-called old world suit. His upper body is leaning against the door of the car, his eyes are closed, whether he is alive or dead.

“Wu Shoushi…” Jiang Baiman recognized the man.

This is the relic hunter they met in the wilderness before.

——The other party and his companions told the “Old Tune Team” about the new ruins found north of Yuelu Station.

At this moment, Wu Shoushi is alone, and his life and death are unknown.

“There are still signs of life.” Jiang Baiman made a judgment based on the electrical signals sensed.

Qiao Chu observed for a while, and then said:

“He is sleeping.”

Hearing the word “sleep”, Jiang Baiman’s pupils dilated slightly, and he quickly raised his right hand to shoot Wu Shoushi where he was.

However, she is not targeting people, but car glass.

At this moment, Shang Jianyao had taken the lead and shot Wu Shoushi’s car with his back.

In the sound of Da, one glass window broke directly.

Wu Shoushi’s eyes moved slightly, as if he was about to wake up, but at this time, his expression was suddenly distorted, and his whole body twitched twice, completely losing his movement.

“He died?” Long Yuehong asked in amazement.

“In theory, there is still a chance of rescue…” Jiang Baiman said so, but she had no idea of ​​going forward. At the same time, she guarded all around and moved to an abandoned car.

The same is true for Bai Chen, and he reminded:

“The terrible nightmare horse may have returned.”

Long Yuehong was taken aback, and tried to keep his eyes wide open and not let himself fall asleep.

Qiao Chu did not speak, but used the “comprehensive early warning system” to focus on finding possible “enemies” around him.

Shang Jianyao looked at Wu Shoushi ahead, suddenly opened the mouth and said:

“Will you sleep on the street? Although I will…”

“Can that nightmare horse force people to fall asleep?” Jiang Baiman instantly understood what Shang Jianyao wanted to express, “However, when we encountered it before, it did not show this.”

After she and Shang Jianyao woke up from a real nightmare, they no longer fell asleep with unfathomable mystery.

“Either it can only sleep one person at a time, and will choose to give up when facing a large number of goals, or…” Shang Jianyao raised his head and looked at Qiao Chu who was wearing an outer skeleton device.

Before Qiao Chu faced the nightmare horse alone, he has lived to the present.

Shang Jianyao paused and said:
“Either there are other monsters here that can force people to sleep.”

Hearing this sentence, Long Yuehong’s body felt cold, but he felt that there were a lot of things hidden in the darkness around him.

“I’ll see if I can save it, you pay attention to my situation.” Then, Shang Jianyao walked towards Wu Shoushi in a just and honorable decoy posture.

He had just moved forward two steps, and suddenly there was a desolate roar somewhere in the ruins of the city:

“ao wu!”

This voice resounded through the sky, making people tremble.
