The off-road vehicle approached at high speed, and the two explorers recovered from the initial shock. One explorer with sharp eyes shouted: "They are holding bows! Don't be afraid, we have guns!"
He knelt down on one knee and aimed at the off-road vehicle in the distance. At this moment, the off-road vehicle was still a thousand meters away, far beyond the range of the single-shot musket in his hand. He had to wait until the opponent was close to about 200 meters before he could fire. Moreover, the muskets in their hands have to be reloaded every time they fire, so hitting the first shot is very important.
The explorer held his breath for a moment and entered the state. Only the gap in the crosshair and the tightly trapped off-road vehicle were left in his field of vision.
A man on the off-road vehicle suddenly jumped out of the car, took out a long bow, pointed an arrow diagonally at the sky, and shot it in this direction. There seemed to be a flash of light on the bow, and the arrow disappeared.
The explorer felt that his eyes were a little blurred, and in an instant he could no longer find the trajectory of the arrow. However, he still locked onto the woman driving the car and didn't care about the arrow at all. . .
This is 1000 meters! What kind of arrow can shoot 1,000 meters? Even a weak sniper rifle is not easy to hit at this distance.
"careful……"
The cry of the companion next to him suddenly sounded, but before the explorer who was aiming intently figured out what to be careful about, a heavy arrow fell from the sky and penetrated his right shoulder!
The location where the heavy arrow hit was not fatal, but the terrifying kinetic energy instantly tore apart most of his body. Such injuries caused him to melt away in an instant, without even having time to scream!
The heavy arrow had not yet used up its remaining power and plunged diagonally into the ground. The ground was first sunken, and then suddenly erupted, spewing out a mud waterfall several meters long. Mud and gravel poured over the face of the explorer next to him.
The surviving explorers were stunned. Is this an arrow? ?
Seeing the man draw his bow again, he suddenly felt blessed and raised his hands high! Obviously, you can't escape by running away. You can't outrun an off-road vehicle with two legs. As for confrontation, the fate of your companions is an example. This is not a bow and arrow, a large-caliber sniper rifle is nothing more than that. Not to mention that he was just a flesh and blood man wearing leather armor, even if he was sitting in an infantry fighting vehicle, the armor would never be able to block such a terrifying arrow.
Seeing the explorer raising his hands in surrender, Chu Jungui filled his bow with arrows without hesitation. Fixed targets are much easier to hit.
"Wait a minute!" Lin Xi stopped Chu Jungui and said, "Confirm your identity first. Our follow-up plan requires additional manpower."
"We already have people!" Chu Jungui pointed at Hathaway, and the little princess straightened up immediately.
"There's only one!"
"Isn't this one more useful than all ten?" Chu Jun returned.
Lin Xi did not deny the little princess's ability, but said: "We still need workers and cannon fodder."
Chu Jun returned and said: "It's enough for me to do the work. I'm probably equivalent to 20 strong human laborers. As cannon fodder, Kaitian is very suitable."
Lin Xi covered her eyes and said, "As you wish, you can cum!"
However, Chu Jungui lowered his bow and arrow slightly, pointed the tip of the arrow to the ground, and said hesitantly: "He has already knelt down..."
Lin Xi sighed and said, "Go over and take a look. If you don't put down the arrow, he will probably lie down."
Chu Jun Gui sheathed his arrows as he was told, and the three of them climbed onto the small high ground. The man in front of them looked familiar. They had seen it in a directory. He was a senior explorer who had experienced death once.
The explorer looked to be in his 30s, his beard and hair were a little messy, and he looked dusty. When he saw Chu Jungui and Lin Xi, he suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "It's you guys. If I had known earlier, I might as well have resisted desperately. Although I know it's useless, at least I can die with some dignity."
Chu Jun returned and said, "Our reputation is so bad?"
"It's not just bad, uh, it's prestigious. Anyway, if you meet you, you will definitely die. There are still some people who don't know how they died, but they also know that they must have died in your hands."
Lin Xidao: "There's nothing we can do about it. Who made some of you greedy for bounty and want to attack us? If you want to blame, it should be them. It's these people who gave you, especially the people in the first department, a chance to survive. It’s ruined.”
The explorer sighed and said: "I have never thought about the bounty, because I know that I can't get it even if I risk my life. I just want to achieve more achievements here and make more money before retiring. , so to speak, can you leave a way for me to survive?"
Lin X said calmly: "I don't want anyone to shoot me in the back again."
The explorer smiled helplessly, closed his eyes, and said, "Let's do it! For the sake of being part of the same team, please give me a good time and don't torture me."
Lin Xi poked Chu Jungui and made a gesture to tell him to come out and be a good person.
Chu Jungui was a little confused, but he still took a step forward, pulled the explorer up from the ground, and said, "I just need a few people now, so don't let me down."
The explorer survived the catastrophe, so he was surprised and happy.
"Pack up the useful things and then follow us. We have to inspect the next place. What's your name?"
"Fang Ren, a senior explorer of the First Division." He came to the equipment scattered on the ground by his companions, his eyes were a little sad, and he silently picked up his backpack and armor, leaving the armor in place. This is a ritual in the real dream. Unless there is an urgent need, the armor of a fallen teammate will be left in place, hoping that he can enter the real dream again.
It was a bit crowded for four people to sit on the off-road vehicle. Fang Ren consciously sat in the corner with half of his butt outside. He had to firmly hold on to the steel frame to avoid being knocked off. Lin Xi and the other three were as if they were nailed to the car. No matter how the car undulated, they remained calm and unaffected.
The off-road vehicle drove for half an hour. During the journey, Fang Ren told about his background and story, which could be regarded as acquaintance with the three of them. He was a mercenary. After fighting for several years, he came across the dynasty recruiting reserve explorers. Of course, the external name of the recruitment was not this. It was only after he successfully applied that he learned that he wanted to enter the real dreamland and become an explorer.
The explorer who was shot dead by Chu Jungui's arrow was named Xu. Fang Ren had cooperated with him before, and they both felt lucky to meet him this time. It's just that Lao Xu was really unlucky. He aimed his gun at Chu Jungui, but the actual gun pointed at Lin Xi. Chu Jungui and Lin Xi were still sitting next to each other a thousand meters away. This error was normal. However, Chu Jungui didn't know the range of his gun, and the test subjects were most afraid of random shooting, so he simply killed it with one arrow.
The four people quickly arrived at the reserved area and everyone got out of the car. Chu Jungui asked Fang Ren to follow him and began to search in a fan shape.
Chu Jungui also trotted all the way during the search. For a full hour, the straight-line search distance was 15 kilometers, and then he met Lin Xi and the little princess. After confirming that there were no traces of ape monsters or explorers in their respective search areas, the three of them ended their day's patrol and began to return to the camp.
Fang Ren remained silent throughout the entire journey back. But he finally understood how those explorers died.
Back at the camp, Chu Jungui had found a position next to the camp and asked Fang Ren to set up camp here. There are still many secrets in the camp, and he cannot be allowed in yet.
Fang Ren originally thought that he had become numb after seeing the off-road vehicle, but now that he saw the 20-meter-square fortress with a 4-meter-high wall, his mouth still opened slowly and uncontrollably, and he simply couldn't close it. Then he saw a row of blast furnaces erected against the river outside the camp. There were hundreds of tons of ore piled in the open space next to it. On the other side were hundreds of logs and a six-car cargo truck. Cart.
This is not an explorer camp, it is clearly an industrial base!
However, it was not over yet. He suddenly shuddered. When he looked up, he saw an unmanned crossbow on the camp wall automatically turned around and pointed it at him. Then it actually fired a green laser. Fall on your forehead!
Without even looking in the mirror, Fang Ren knew that there must be a green light spot between his eyebrows at this moment. He had seen this scene many times when he was a mercenary. But that is the real world, but this is a real dream. In the real dream, didn't everyone agree that they would rely on muskets and sabers to conquer the world? Why is there even a calibration laser?
Just with a soft click, the crossbow wound up automatically! Fang Ren felt cold all over his body and did not dare to move. Even the thought of evading disappeared. He was an experienced mercenary. As soon as he saw the huge arrow box hanging under the crossbow, he knew that this thing must be firing continuously. He could not dodge the first arrow but could not dodge the second one. Besides, the power of crossbow arrows is not the same as that of bullets. It is possible to survive the shot, but one arrow from this kind of machine crossbow will definitely kill you.
Fortunately, after the crossbow was cocked, there was no follow-up action. But Fang Ren always felt that the crossbow seemed to be alive and looking at him. After a while, the crossbow seemed to lose interest in him, turned off the laser, and turned to another direction. After a while, the crossbow began to move along the city wall and ran to the other side of the camp.
Although this is a common operation of the intelligent automatic defense system, Fang Ren always had a creepy feeling when he looked at it. The crossbow seemed to have its own consciousness. It looked around, and if something didn't suit your eyes, you might shoot it.
At this time, Chu Jungui came over with a huge backpack and put it on the ground. The ground suddenly sank a few centimeters, which showed how heavy the backpack was. Then Chu Jungui placed the wooden box he was carrying in his left hand on the ground, and the ground also settled.
But carrying two such heavy things, Chu Jungui did not leave any footprints on the ground. Fang Ren was shocked. Just when he was about to think about the scientific principles, Chu Jungui had already stuffed him with a manual and said, "In the backpack are your equipment and parts, in the box are building materials. Build yourself a room." Survival house. Here are the instructions, just follow them.”
Fang Ren silently took it and flipped through it. He saw that the manual was richly illustrated and well-printed, and the paper felt particularly good.
