There is a huge subway network underground in Fu District, and the official base only occupies a small part of it. Most of them are survivors who still survive in large numbers. They do not want to join the official base, nor do they want to join those private bases. , a dozen or dozens of them form a small survival team to survive in the doomsday world. For them, this way they do not have to be restricted by others.
Wang Bing is the leader of a small team of more than a dozen people. He leads half of the team members out every day to hunt for weaker mutant beasts, such as mutant mice and mutant spiders. In addition to being edible meat, these mutant beasts are, at last, The most important thing is the crystal core in their body. The crystal core can not only provide humans with stronger energy, but can also be used as the currency of doomsday transactions. Yes, traditional currency is completely useless. The crystal core is the universal currency now. Currency, or simply the barter model.
On this day, Wang Bing left his base with a few people as usual. His base was also formed by digging a cave directly from the wall. It was similar to the cave dwellings in the Northwest Province, except that the area was larger and there were several separated There are bedrooms for people to sleep, a restaurant for cooking and eating, storage rooms and a planting room. All the things grown in the planting room are mushrooms, and some mutated mice are also bred.
Yes, mutant rats are not only a main source of food and crystal nuclei for ordinary survivors, they are also livestock that they can raise, but they cannot raise too many. After all, these mutant rats are quite bloodthirsty. Breeding survivors also need to pay great attention to protection, otherwise a mistake will cause a disaster, and the entire base may be destroyed.
Wang Bing arranged for special people to keep an eye on the mutated rats that he had bred every day. Even when they were sleeping and resting, they had to arrange for people to keep an eye on them in shifts, just in case something unexpected happened. In the apocalyptic era, it was better to be cautious.
Every time he goes out, Wang Bing will arrange special reconnaissance personnel to go to the front to detect the situation. If there is danger, he will use the walkie-talkie to notify them. Wang Bing exchanged the walkie-talkie for crystal cores from the official base market. It can be said that the walkie-talkie is also a kind of A relatively expensive item.
The apocalypse has destroyed all human industrial production. Although several factories have been opened in the official base of Fu District, they cannot be used to produce things like walkie-talkies. Most of them are arsenals, used to produce bullets and firearms. As far as the officials are concerned, now The first thing on the list is security. A large number of mutant beasts attack the base every day. Most of the official power is used to defend against those mutant beasts. Things like collecting supplies are left to adventure teams formed by civilians, or to Survivors who have not joined an official base do it.
Of course Wang Bing doesn't care about these things in the official base. Since the apocalypse broke out and his whole family died, only he and his daughter were left. His biggest hope now is to lead his daughter to survive in this cruel apocalyptic world and make his daughter go smoothly. The land grows up.
After leaving his base, Wang Bing led his men to a corner. At the end of the corner was a dead end. The scouts he arranged had already arrived here first. When Wang Bing and the others arrived, the scouts made a gesture. , after indicating that there was no unexpected situation inside, Wang Bing and the others turned into the dead end of the corner.
Inside is the trap device that Wang Bing and his friends put down yesterday. There is already a captured mutated mouse in the trap. This mutated mouse did not die, but was captured alive. It may be that humans appeared and squeaked in the cage. Chattering non-stop, Wang Bing skillfully stabbed the mutated mouse to death with a dagger, and then asked someone to put it in a bag. They quickly left the place and restored the trap device to its original state.
This is their daily work. With their base as the center, they have placed many trap devices within a few hundred meters of the surrounding area. This kind of hunting should be called hunter trap hunting. It is much safer than going head-on with mutant beasts. , but sometimes they also attract a large number of mutant beasts. At that time, they can only hide in the base and tremble, praying that the mutant beasts cannot find them.
Of course, being able to survive for so many days in the apocalypse, Wang Bing and the others have very good survivability. They have placed a lot of mutant beast feces and some body residues around their base, so that they can reduce those mutations. The beast discovers the scent of man.
It can be said that this method is the most widely circulated and most effective protection method among survivors. Under normal circumstances, as long as they do not encounter too many mutant beasts and the survivors do not commit suicide, they can still be very safe.
As for why we don’t use ultraviolet lights to drive away those animals that are susceptible to moisture, we can only say that using ultraviolet lights can temporarily drive away those mutated beasts, but it is equivalent to exposing the location of our base. When the ultraviolet lights have no energy supply, what will happen to the base in the end? It's definitely not going to be good.
Wang Bing led several people to several more trap locations. Some yielded results and some did not, but he was already very happy. Although mutant rats were bred and the reproductive capacity of mutant rats was several times more terrifying than before the apocalypse, but This does not mean that there is no need to hunt mutant beasts. This is because the mutated rats raised cannot grow up to the point where they can eat meat and dig crystal nuclei all at once. This takes time.
After seeing all the traps, one of his subordinates asked Wang Bing: "Chief, should we go back or go to the official base to exchange supplies?"
Regarding the problem of his men, Wang Bing thought for a while and decided that it would be better to go to the official base to exchange some supplies, and he also wanted to ask some acquaintances for the latest news. After all, many of the latest news can only be found at the official base. They are like If a small private survival team wants to live longer, they need to keep abreast of the latest intelligence information.
"Let's go, let's go to the official base to exchange supplies."
"OK."
Now that the leader Wang Bing has decided, they naturally obey the leader's words. For them, the leader Wang Bing who leads them to survive and gets a good reputation is very prestigious.
Dong dong dong——
After carefully walking a few hundred meters in the subway passage, Wang Bing and others heard the sound of knocking on the wall. Wang Bing waved to everyone to stop. He put his ear close to the wall and listened carefully. Sure enough, it was right. , he still heard a "dong dong dong" sound, but the wall was not a real wall, but a tunnel that was dug through the subway and installed directly by the shield machine. It was not hollow inside. But there is an unknown number of kilometers of soil layer. Logically speaking, it is impossible to hear such a knocking sound on the wall.
But even if he didn't know what was knocking on the wall, Wang Bing still felt uneasy. He immediately said to everyone: "Let's go back, there is danger!"
When Wang Bing's men heard his words, they immediately panicked, but everyone quickly followed Wang Bing and left there.
It's a pity that when they were less than ten meters away, all the walls around them collapsed, and a large amount of sea water poured directly in, but they couldn't feel it. They were buried in the earth and rocks the moment the wall collapsed. Down below, by the time the sea water came in, they had already died first.
What followed the large amount of sea water came in was a sea snake more than thirty meters long. This sea snake was as big as a millstone, no less than the ancient ocean giants, and soon dozens of such mutated sea snakes appeared one after another. They swam in the direction of the sea water, which was exactly the direction of Fu District's official base.
