After inspecting the camp, Xu Hua walked to the camp wall, first looked up into the distance, then looked at the terrain around the camp, and finally looked at several defensive positions around it, and said, "The defense circle can be expanded a little more."
Chu Jungui actually had this intention. The fourth machine crossbow was about to be installed on the wall. With the firepower of the four machine crossbows covering it, the defense circle could indeed be pushed out another 100 meters. Xu Hua saw the crossbow being assembled and tried firing it again. He immediately saw the problem with the defense system. He was indeed very discerning.
Chu Jungui had already calculated the best position for the new defensive position and set it up. In the past two days, five or six explorers have defected one after another, so the defense force has been further strengthened.
While patrolling, the little princess returned, found Chu Jungui, sent him the coordinates, and then said: "The person the Federation wants to come is at this location, and the remuneration is 5 billion in advance, which will turn into an order for the Lightyear Starship . He will come in three hours."
Chu Jun returned to the command room, opened the holographic projection map on the table, entered the coordinates brought by the little princess, and an optimal route was automatically generated on the map. The coordinate point is not far or close to the camp, about 200 kilometers. 3 hours is enough, but not sufficient.
Xu Hua stood aside and looked at the holographic map silently. This thing is not uncommon in the real world, but it is rare in real dreams. This is equivalent to rebuilding an industrial system. His eyes scanned the projected map, not missing every detail.
There is an unexplored area between the camp and the target location. According to previous standards, it should be a level three area, which means that there is a fatal danger to ordinary explorers. Chu Jungui thought for a while and asked Kaitian to prepare the 8-wheel drive off-road vehicle. This off-road vehicle is now surrounded by a layer of armor, and there is a crossbow and an electromagnetic rifle on the roof, which can be said to be armed to the teeth.
Chu Jungui only took Hathaway with him, leaving Lin Xi to guard the camp and protect Xu Hua.
The off-road vehicle drove out of the camp gate and drove away at high speed. Chu Jungui drove the car, Hathaway controlled the weapon, and her blond hair was flying in the wind.
After driving for nearly a hundred kilometers, we officially entered the third-level area. The surrounding terrain began to become complicated. From time to time, various beasts rushed out of the forest and pounced on the off-road vehicle. They are extremely ferocious, and regardless of the huge size gap between them and 8-wheel drive off-road vehicles, they attack bravely. However, they are still flesh and blood after all, and they are completely helpless against the thickened armor plate of the off-road vehicle. The impact on the armor plate bounced back, and Hathaway took the opportunity to kill them with a crossbow.
After rushing through the scattered herd of beasts, a giant mountain-like beast suddenly rushed out from the front, lowering its head and rushing towards the off-road vehicle. The huge body, which was ten meters high, carried a terrifying pressure, making the earth shake every time it took a step.
Chu Jungui made a sharp turn and the entire car turned sideways. The little princess on the carriage didn't need to aim, the muzzle of the electromagnetic rifle was naturally pointed at the giant beast. She pulled the trigger hard, and the entire body of the electromagnetic rifle shone with blue light. The entire gun body jerked back, shaking the heavy 8-wheel drive. As the muzzle of the gun sprayed out a faint blue-white fire, a ball of dazzling light shot out, hitting the giant beast at a speed exceeding the limit of human vision!
Chu Jungui had already stepped on the acceleration to the bottom. The off-road vehicle roared and accelerated. Kankan avoided the impact of the giant beast when he was hit.
The giant beast did not stop, but kept moving forward. It rushed several hundred meters before it collapsed to the ground, twitched a few times and then stopped moving. A terrifyingly large hole with a diameter of one meter appeared on its body, almost penetrating its entire body.
The 8-wheel-drive off-road vehicle moved forward, and after passing through two more waves of attacks from the beasts, it finally passed through the third-level area and returned to the second-level area again. The level of danger in the level three area is only for ordinary explorers. People like Chu Jungui, who drives an off-road vehicle with thick armor and wild horsepower, and carries an electromagnetic rifle, are simply destroying everything along the way. He just leaves the level three area. Push it across!
Entering the second-level area, the level of danger dropped significantly. Many beasts hid far away when they heard the roar of the off-road vehicles. Some ferocious beasts compared the size difference between themselves and the off-road vehicles, and then quietly retreated behind the trees.
At this time, the progress was much faster, and the off-road vehicle reached the target area unimpeded.
There was a bonfire burning on the grass beside the forest. The old man Hathaway had seen was sitting by the bonfire, roasting a wild bird with all his heart. There were actually two explorers guarding him.
The two explorers were covered in leather armor, with steel plate protection on their chests, backs and legs. They wore steel helmets on their heads and carried submachine guns in their hands. They were well equipped. They stood ten meters away, chatting while on guard, but in a seemingly casual manner, the topic of conversation was not easy.
"I heard it was that guy who came to pick up the old man."
"Is that the guy who killed many of us? His surname is Chu?"
"Keep your voice down, it's him."
"Is there a high bounty on his head?"
"I heard that someone offered a bounty of tens of billions just to kill him here once."
"Is it credible?"
"It's quite credible. It is said that the second division of the Dynasty has been involved in the deaths of more than a dozen people."
"Then if we suddenly..."
"...It's almost time, he should arrive. What is this sound??"
There was a roar in the distance, quickly getting closer and closer. The two explorers quickly separated as if they were faced with a formidable enemy, and pointed their guns in the direction of the roar.
There was a slope of dirt there, blocking the view. As the roar approached, the two became more and more nervous. The sound was too loud and fast!
When the roar reached a critical point, a steel chariot suddenly jumped out from the top of the slope!
The two explorers were stunned. They never expected to see such a thing in a real dream. Just looking at the huge body and powerful appearance is enough to make them give up all their inappropriate thoughts. Just by looking at it, you can tell that the submachine guns in their hands are completely useless against the thick external armor. Although they don't recognize the crossbows and electromagnetic cannons on the roof, they can tell just by looking at the shape that they are definitely not easy to mess with.
They stood there blankly, their guns unconsciously lowered.
The 8-wheel-drive armored off-road vehicle rushed straight towards the two explorers, and then it suddenly swung its tail and rolled down on the two explorers!
Amid the violent coughs, the two explorers looked dusty. They wiped their faces several times to wipe away the dust before they could barely see.
When they opened their eyes, they saw a metal monster lying in front of them. The crossbow on the tank was aimed at them. The arrow was so thick that it made people tremble.
The explorer who was pointed at by the crossbow subconsciously dropped his weapon and raised his hands. Another Federation explorer hesitated, then also put down his weapon and raised his hand.
They didn't know that at that moment, Chu Jungui had already considered sending the two Federation explorers back to their hometown. However, after considering all aspects, Chu Jungui felt that the Federation had already placed a large order worth 5 billion. It would be a bit unethical to kill the federal explorers again, at least I would be embarrassed to do it in front of a big customer.
Chu Jungui parked the off-road vehicle, patted the shoulders of the two federal explorers, and smiled like an old man seeing a steak. After the smile made the two of them shiver, he walked towards the old man and asked: " Are you Sal?"
The old man pointed to the half-cooked bird and said, "Wait for me for ten minutes. This is the first time in ten years that I can eat as much as I want. Just for this reason, this time is worth it."
Chu Jungui nodded, took two steps away, and began to check the surrounding environment. Hathaway also came over to accompany the old man. After a while, the bird was cooked, and the old man finished eating it slowly. Then he sighed with satisfaction, stood up, and said, "Let's go."
He looks like an ordinary old man, but there is an irresistible power in his words and deeds.
Chu Jungui led Saler onto the off-road vehicle and asked him to sit in the passenger seat. The little princess still operated the weapon and drove back to the camp.
The car drove much slower on the return trip. Saler's physical condition was even worse than that of Xu Hua, and he could not withstand the violent ups and downs at all. Fortunately, this route has been cleared once and we did not encounter too many ferocious beasts along the way. A few hours later, the off-road vehicle passed the corpse of the giant beast again, but now the corpse turned black and red. As the off-road vehicle approached, countless black and red birds the size of fingers suddenly flew up from the corpse, rising into the sky like a black cloud. When the birds flew away, the giant beast's corpse suddenly shrank in size, and its surface was riddled with holes.
It didn't take long before a small half of this small mountain-like beast was chewed off, which shows how ferocious these black and red birds are. The black clouds formed by them lingered in the sky, obviously obsessed with the corpse of the giant beast, and a group of black birds kept swooping towards the off-road vehicle, and then suddenly turned upwards, getting closer and closer. Obviously, they also began to covet several prey in the off-road vehicle.
The little princess controlling the weapon on the roof of the car was a little uneasy. The weapon in her hand was very powerful, but it had a slow rate of fire and no range of damage. It was obviously unable to deal with these black birds that were only the size of a finger. The electromagnetic rifle can barely produce some range effect, but it can kill hundreds or thousands of blackbirds. For these blackbirds, which number in the hundreds of thousands, it will not hurt their muscles and bones, but may completely anger them. However, if they don't take action, their temptations will become more and more exaggerated, and sooner or later they will attack. The trouble is, you can't escape when dealing with such hordes of ferocious beasts that can also fly. Escape will definitely trigger their attacks.
The dangers in the Level 3 area are indeed well-deserved. Ordinary explorers who encounter such a flock of black birds will definitely die without burial.
The raids of the blackbird flocks are getting lower and closer, and their chirps are getting louder and shriller!
Chu Jungui continued to drive, but put his hands on the roof of the cab.
The new attack of the blackbirds was extremely low, almost reaching the roof of the car. The little princess was forced to retract into the car and close the roof.
The temperature in the cab suddenly rose, as if it had been exposed to the sun all day in the desert, and the area where Chu Jungui's palm was pressed was even slightly red!
The flock of attacking black birds suddenly let out a shrill cry, falling like rain, and the spear tips protruding from the black clouds were all broken off!
The black cloud was frightened and jumped several hundred meters. It did not dare to approach the off-road vehicle again. It watched it go away and did not dare to lower its height for a long time.
