Xu Huo walked a short distance in the city. Most of the televisions in the store, the mobile phones discarded on the roadside, or the laptops in the houses that had not been powered off, except for the forced pop-up warnings, stayed there. From the time point of view of the news broadcast, it was estimated that it would only take half a day for the city to fall completely.
Although traces of alien activities can be seen in many places, so far, he has not seen any living aliens. There are occasionally two or three bodies of aliens, which were also killed by collapsed buildings. There are not many traces of fighting. .
If Area 017 has not started evolving for a long time, it is not surprising that there are no capable players who can fight against the alien species. However, there should be armed forces in a city. If there are no guns, there are always two, so that there will not be no resistance at all.
Xu Huo went to the nearby police station and fire station to check. Cars, firearms, axes and other items had all been taken away. Perhaps they had evacuated in advance after receiving the news. The blood stains and remnants that could be seen everywhere were also consistent with the scale of the city. No, this is good news, at least it means that most people have left early.
After walking for a while, he saw relatively complete human limbs from the belly of a mutant whose chest and abdomen were pierced by construction steel bars. The other mutants still maintained more or less human shapes, but this mutant had some strange mutations. The head expanded to more than twice the size of a normal person, and the section from the mouth to the neck seemed to have evolved in particular. The small piece of iron rod inserted into its mouth did not burst its throat, but stabbed out at least one palm along with its skin. Long ups and downs.
This seemingly top-heavy alien has particularly thick upper limbs, while its legs appear slender in comparison - it is on the verge of breaking away from the human form and moving towards a completely animal form, which is considered an anomaly among alien species.
After checking the alien corpse, Xu Huocai cut a hole in the collapsed steel plate next to him, and jumped in after the smoke and dust dissipated.
This building collapsed quite completely, and the doorways on the lower floors were completely blocked. It was easier and safer to open from above.
Cutting down layer by layer, Xu Huo melted away a twisted door on the third floor and found a disabled old man lying on the ground.
After bringing the people out, they found two children who had lost their parents further down.
For more than ten minutes, he took out six people from the collapsed building, some old and some young. They all failed to evacuate in time. In the end, they couldn't run away and had to hide at home. They originally thought they would wait for the alien group to cross the city. It's safe. I didn't expect that the destructive power of those alien species is astonishing. There will even be more than a dozen of them chasing a target. They will penetrate the wall when hiding in a building, and dig through the ground when hiding in an underground shopping mall, let alone those hiding in... People in cars or lockers.
If the building hadn't collapsed, these six people wouldn't have survived.
One of the younger children was in poor condition and died within a few minutes of coming out.
"Where's the rescue...is there no rescue?" The disabled old man looked at the devastated city and murmured desperately and helplessly: "Didn't you say there is rescue?"
The communication equipment can still be used. The two teenage children have become proficient in finding news through online channels, but the news on the Internet is not good. Except for some fragmentary scenes of alien species appearing, others are calling on survivors to save themselves. Yes, because the country is almost paralyzed, facilities have been extensively destroyed, and communications are unknown when they will be interrupted, so at this time not many people are paying attention to what the aliens look like and how to deal with them, and what is the situation of the country and players. They just want to Know where the safe zones are.
The safe zone in Area 017 is a temporarily requisitioned military base or armed concentration area. The location of the safe zone is broadcast on the Internet 24 hours a day, allowing living people to go there on their own.
But the list of safe zones was announced a few days ago.
Xu Huo found the nearest place and said to the five survivors: "I'll send you there."
"Are you a player?" The disabled old man looked at him, "Where are you from?"
"I'm not a player from District 017." Xu Huo said. The city's communications have not been completely interrupted. They should have learned about the arrival of players from other districts from the Internet.
Sure enough, after hearing that he was a player from outside the area, several people's expressions changed a little. It was not a deep hatred, but there was obvious anger and resistance in their expressions.
This is not surprising. Xu Huo saw the report of the nuclear massacre on the mobile phone he picked up.
In order to fight against the alien tide and the war between countries, Area 017 has begun to use nuclear weapons on a large scale. However, the nuclear weapons used to fight against the alien tide are mostly dropped in sparsely populated places. The nuclear war between the major powers has not yet officially started. Those affected are small countries that are war zones.
Two attacks by players from outside areas shattered the situation in Area 017. They first controlled the weapons and coerced the local government to call out super props or people suspected of obtaining super props.
The possibility of this method working is very small. Firstly, the whereabouts of the super props are unknown. Secondly, even if the super props are in this area, players can still take the props and leave. On the contrary, once they nod in agreement or directly hand it over, players in other areas will be Unscrupulous.
The process is unclear, but the two openly threatened cities were nuked one hour and three hours later respectively.
These two extreme examples also caused a wave of public opinion to destroy weapons, but they were quickly overwhelmed by the bad news that followed. As of today, the countries in Area 017 have been completely unable to come up with any effective measures to save the situation under multiple disasters. measures.
Players in the outer area will not leave Area 017 until the destination of the super props is clear, and the countries in Area 017 themselves have reduced their scope of activities due to the alien tide and previous wars. In addition, only some special cities can establish safe zones. The scope of player search is greatly reduced - if the people or forces holding super props are still in Area 017, there is a high probability that they will also enter the safe area.
Of course, all this is based on the premise that the super props have not left Area 017. If the super items have been taken away, then Area 017 can only fully bear any consequences caused by players from outside the area.
Xu Huo respected their decision, looked at the time and said, "You have five minutes to think about it."
After saying that, he left the street and went to inspect another alien corpse a few hundred meters away.
After confirming that there was no difference in appearance between the two large-headed alien species, he used a knife to cut open the body of the alien species, carefully looked through its mouth to throat, and after rubbing it, he pinched a very small hard piece.
Taking out the hard chip, Xu Huo looked at the chip, which was less than one-fifth the size of a fingernail but full of lines, then put it in his pocket, stood up and faced back:
Only a hundred meters away stood a pair of similar-looking men and women, looking down at him.
