Early the next morning, before dawn, Lin Jingfeng urged Ye Ning and his party to get up before dawn to pack their things and prepare to go to the battlefield again.
It was still as early as ever, but this also allowed them to rush through the news of the change of city owner in Night City.
But this time, Lin Jingfeng learned a lesson. Huaicheng, which has been occupied by monsters for decades, is really too dangerous. Those monster beasts were too difficult for him to deal with, let alone Ye Ning and the others?
So this time Lin Jingfeng learned a lesson and took Ye Ning and others to the largest deserted city on the Eastern Continent, which had been invaded by monsters for more than ten years and was still competing with each other. There were also many bounty hunters entrenched here.
Before setting off, Lin Jingfeng solemnly took out several golden badges with the five characters LT743 written on them, shining brightly. The patterns surrounding it also show the posture of a dragon.
Lin Jingfeng explained solemnly: "This is your badge. It has been a long time coming. The main reason is that Dragon City has fallen and other cities have to make Dragon City-style badges. They need to use the badges of Han Fengze and Gu Xinxiao. Let’s make comparisons and delve into style details.”
"That's why it took so long. Of course, you can also think that this badge style is difficult for others to get. It is rare and out of print to some extent." As he spoke, Lin Jingfeng's words unconsciously revealed a sense of sadness. .
"This style is made according to the badges of A-level superpowers. Because there is no template for B-level superpowers." After Lin Jingfeng said this, he paused sadly and continued, "Anyway, with your talents, Becoming an A-level superpower will only take a few years, so let’s treat it as giving it to you in advance.”
Ye Ning and others took the badge and pinned it on their chests. A sense of pride instantly arose. It was a symbol of glory and honor.
Looking carefully, the dragon tattooed on the medal on Yang Ling's chest is slightly gentler than that of Ye Ning and others. The styles for men and women are different. This is also the reason why the medals of Han Fengze and Gu Xinxiao are used. It also explains why neither of them wore medals along the way.
Lin Jingfeng continued to warn: "On this mission, we are going to a deserted city, a city occupied by various bounty hunters. In this city, it is very common for bounty hunters to fight against each other. The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole stalks the cicada. Things like that happen all the time.”
"That's why you must wear this badge. Wear it the whole time and never lose it. This is the symbol of a soldier. After bounty hunters see this badge, they won't cause trouble for you!"
"Similarly, if they don't provoke us, we shouldn't provoke them. In the end, they will still sell the corpses of the monsters to the research institute. They have different paths, and they can be considered colleagues."
"It's just that this colleague is not trustworthy. There are too many intrigues between them. They are only interested in profit and will do anything for money. You don't know what they will do. So try not to deal with them if you can. .”
After hearing this, Ye Ning and others also nodded. When they learned that a mother would torture her daughter to death for money, they already believed that some people would do anything for money.
You can only believe it if you see it with your own eyes. Fortunately, they had already met him in advance, so they would have a good idea if they met him in the future.
Lin Jingfeng continued to introduce: "Huangcheng is the largest city on our Eastern Continent. It has a vast area and a vast territory. It fell just over ten years ago. It is currently competing with monsters and monsters, and the battle is very fierce."
"Because of this, Huangcheng will encounter many armies and bounty hunters. In short, you must remember that those with badges on their chests can cooperate with them. Those without badges must stay away!"
Lin Jingfeng repeatedly emphasized the importance of badges and the dangers of bounty hunters, which indeed made Ye Ning and others remember it.
But this also relates to what Li Yingang said to Ye Ning yesterday: "Perhaps everyone has different feelings about everything. I have been restraining your thoughts and letting you go in the direction I guide, then It's wrong, it will just create another me in the world."
"I have also learned a lesson, and I also hope you can understand this truth. What you firmly believe may not be right."
This made Ye Ning start to wonder again whether what Lin Jingfeng said was just his personal opinion. There are good guys and bad guys. Are there a few good guys among the bounty hunters?
Of course, Ye Ning doesn't have Zhou Chen's mother-like heart. He always just thinks about this kind of thing. In real situations, he still trusts his own judgment and tries to stay away from those people. Everything is about stability. Use the safest method to do things.
Soon, Lin Jingfeng gave a general introduction to Huangcheng. This city also borders Night City, so the distance is not very far. But Lin Jingfeng still let them go so early, which really made Ye Ning very angry.
In fact, Lin Jingfeng also wanted to wake up so early to remind them of the days of survival training. Don't forget the abilities they trained after a few days, otherwise they would suffer a big loss on the battlefield.
After stressing everything, Lin Jingfeng drove Ye Ning and the others to Huangcheng in less than an hour's drive.
The deserted city is even more crumbling. The cold gray stone bricks have long lost their original rustic color. Colorful shards of glass bottles and the remnants of broken screens are scattered on the ground. The wind was still howling, making sounds like complaints and cries among the ruins of the last few buildings.
This place has not only experienced the beast tide, but also experienced the continuous wars between superpowers and monsters. It has experienced many more wars than Huaicheng. Although it was only conquered by monsters for sixteen years, it was even more dilapidated than Huaicheng.
As the car gradually moved away from Night City, the scenes on the road were constantly changing, becoming more and more miserable and desolate. Every building was crumbling, and it seemed that it would fall down if the wind blew.
But judging from the general appearance of the numerous buildings, it also confirms the prosperity and luxury of the deserted city. It is only because of the beast tide that such a prosperous city has been reduced to what it is today, which is very sad.
In war, there are no winners. The former home of mankind has been reduced to ruins, ruins, and devastation. Its appearance of being riddled with holes makes people feel distressed.
The same is true for monsters. During the war, they constantly move their homes. Whether their descendants can live safely is a very serious problem. They had no choice but to join forces to fight, but it was not a union of the same kind, and it was also full of hidden dangers.
This war has been going on for too long. The battles, constant battles, and life and death over the past hundred years have left the entire continent riddled with holes.
The war was too cruel, both sides continued to sacrifice their lives, but they were still evenly matched and there was no good outcome.
Humanity has also invested too much money, and has to make the people at the bottom pay more taxes in order to ensure expenditures on research and development and military expenditures.
It's even worse for monsters. Their lower-level beasts are constantly giving their lives or being kidnapped by humans for research.
This has also led to constant grievances between the two sides, irreconcilable battles, and constant stalemates.
Where is the road? Completely eliminate or dominate one party and eliminate the other party from this planet? Or should we seek reconciliation within the scope of appropriate rights and interests and take a step back?
It's a difficult decision to make, and there won't be any results in a short period of time. This smoke-filled, worthless battle may continue for a long time.
Soon, the car stopped. The road ahead has been blocked by collapsed buildings. The damaged ground is no longer suitable for vehicles to move forward.
The bus has arrived at the station, it's the battlefield, it's time to get off.
At this time, the genius had just dimly lit up, and the morning sun was shining with blazing light, illuminating the dilapidated and devastated city. How ironic that the sunshine of hope shines on this dilapidated city.
As soon as you get out of the car, you can smell the smell of blood, which is quite strong. Looking around, next to the nearest collapsed building, under the pressure of the ruins, there was a corpse that still smelled of decay. His blood had dried up, but the smell was still strong.
"Everyone, be careful. There might have been a battle here yesterday, and there might be monsters nearby." Lin Jingfeng's eyes widened and he became more vigilant, accumulating superpowers in his hands and ready to fight at any time.
But the surroundings were quiet, with no movement at all, which made Lin Jingfeng feel that he was a little nervous. There were no traces of monsters around.
"If nothing else, this person's teammates may have eliminated the monster and taken it away. Only the corpse of his companion was left here." Han Fengze looked at the corpse and stood in a stalemate with Lin Jingfeng. Five minutes later, a possible hypothesis was raised.
"It's possible, but don't let down your guard. Let's slowly move closer to the deserted city." Lin Jingfeng said slowly. Then he took the vanguard, found a barely walkable road among the ruins, and led everyone towards the interior of the deserted city.
Because Ye Ning and the others were relatively weak, they followed at the back of the entire team and were protected behind them.
Although Lin Jingfeng is cautious, he doesn't think anything will go wrong this time. Huangcheng currently seems to be the safest among all battlefields. Because the base of both combatants is so large, humans will use technology to ask for help when they encounter monsters.
Reinforcements will soon be felt, and the number of people lost in the deserted city will therefore be relatively small. It is theoretically the most suitable place for experience.
Ye Ning and the others walked behind, but out of curiosity, Ye Ning looked at the body lying on the ground before leaving.
One of his arms was sawed off and blood came from somewhere. The entire lower body was pressed by a boulder and looked bloody.
On his chest, he wore a white plum blossom-shaped medal with only A written on it.
