District 6.
Yellow sand fills the sky.
The ruins and broken walls are buried in the yellow-orange sand, and the weathered building surfaces are mottled, telling the world about the ruthlessness and vicissitudes of time.
Time is not only a butcher's knife, but also an excellent demolition worker, demolishing the city's former prosperity.
On the endless sandy plain, the undulating sand dunes in the hazy wind and sand look like women of different house types lying on their backs on the sand, which makes people think a lot.
A 400-meter-high iron tower stands proudly at the end of the desert, looming, whether it is a mirage or whether this famous iron tower has really withstood the ravages of time and remains standing to this day.
Straight railroad tracks run parallel to the desert highway.
Even though the dust clouds blocked most of the scorching sun, the temperature in the desert was still terribly hot, and the scenery in the distance became distorted and weird due to the high temperature.
"Uuuuuu——"
The whistle of the train named Orange Cat is like the bell that restarts human civilization, resounding in this lonely land where no other sound can be heard except the sound of wind.
High in the sky, above the dust cloud, a ferocious "devil" with wings was hovering in the dust cloud.
"Report! At three o'clock ahead, in the sky, flying aberration type 'demons' were spotted, about three kilometers away from us!"
The believers in charge of the lookout quickly spread the news throughout the Orange Cat through the public address system in the car.
Mia had a cool short haircut and wore a scarf to protect against sand and dust. After confirming the distance and location of the "Devil" with a telescope, she silently prepared the rifle and commanded in a low voice on the walkie-talkie.
"The second combat team is preparing to attack."
"Five in total."
"From left to right are Target 1, Target 2, Target 3, Target 4, and Target 5."
"Watch their tracks."
The arranged combat team lay silently and orderly by the window, setting up the barrels of their guns.
"'Freeze bombs' loaded."
Click.
In unison, everyone carefully took out a seemingly ordinary bullet from the magazine at their waist and loaded it into the chamber.
What looks like ordinary bullets are actually "magic bullets" specially made by their great humanoid boss, the being who calls himself the "God of Correction".
They had seen the power of this "magic bullet" with their own eyes, and now they were convinced of the power of the "freeze bomb". When loading the freeze bomb, they all seemed to have the word "invincible" written on their faces for their boss.
"Feili, Torre, Augustus, Han, and Juzi, you shoot at No. 1 to No. 5 respectively. I will be responsible for the aftermath."
Mia said solemnly, pressed her eyes on the mechanical sight, and pulled the bolt.
"The target is about to come into range."
"Into range."
"Prepare."
"shooting!"
boom!
The five named people shot at the same time, and only one gunshot was heard in the desert.
"Shit."
"Leaked."
Two annoyed voices came from the channel.
Two brothers shot wrong.
The three demons were hit by the freezing bomb, their flying figures were instantly frozen, and they fell from high altitude. After a moment of astonishment, the remaining two swooped down at high speed and rushed towards the speeding train.
Mia, who was already well prepared, quickly made up for the leak and fired.
boom!
The nearest demon was shot in the middle of his eyebrow.
Mia pursed her lips tightly, flicked her wrist, and pushed the bullet in. With a quick click, she used the force to push the bullet into the gun chamber.
As we all know, rifles have a slow rate of fire, and their usability varies from person to person. And Mia changed the bullet, loaded the bullet, pulled the bolt, and aimed. The set of movements was smooth and smooth. It can be seen that Mia had practiced hard in order to make good use of this gun.
boom!
The second demon that slipped through the net was frozen and landed in the desert.
"call!"
A crisis was finally resolved.
After she whispered to others to continue to be vigilant, she sneaked into the car at the back. The boss and Shirley were seen sitting in the middle of the carriage, with a book in front of them that they had searched for at a previous resource point.
There were a few pages of a strange game called "Sudoku" left on the book, and the boss and Shirley were playing it with gusto.
Shirley frowned, holding a charcoal pen with jerky movements, scribbling on the paper.
Yue Linglong held a cat in her arms, smiling, and quietly looking out the window at the yellow sand in the sky.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the boss's office was not disturbed, Mia breathed a long sigh of relief. A few aberrant creatures are not a crisis to the Orange Cat's combat effectiveness, but what is really a crisis is whether the peace of the boss and his wife will be disturbed. This is what Mia is worried about.
Through the crack in the door, Mia saw her younger sister Shirley sitting on Zheng Xiu's lap. The girl was coquettish and cute, and the man was calm and kind. This scene was like a father and daughter enjoying themselves, and Mia couldn't help but look at her with envy and admiration.
After a moment, Mia's eyes regained their composure, she pulled up her scarf to cover the slowly rising corners of her mouth, and turned around to leave. Well, hidden merit and fame.
The peace of the boss is guarded by me, Mia.
…
Finally finished two pages of Sudoku.
Zheng Xiu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
It’s a puzzle game where you can see the answer at a glance, so it’s too difficult to pretend to be thinking hard.
A month had passed since they drove out of the valley.
In the valley, the experience of facing a rat tide and running a drug ring is still vivid in my mind like it was yesterday.
No one can forget the shock and fear caused by the terrible rat tide.
Zheng Xiu slashed open the dam with one sword, and the flood flooded the valley, barely blocking the tide of rats.
They didn't stop for a month, heading north, gradually gaining a certain distance from the rat tide behind them.
At the very least, Shirley cannot hear the so-called "voice of evolution" now.
"The shrinkage of the poisonous circle and the reproduction of the rat tide proceed in a certain sequence."
Lady Anne used her experience to explain: "If I were Him, I would definitely not do it myself, set up the 'program' in advance, and let the 'program' turn on its own."
What Anne said makes sense.
But Zheng Xiu had a vague feeling that Anne's "program poison circle theory" could not explain the "eyes" and "emotions" that Zheng Xiu felt when he faced the rat tide at close range, as if he was having a face-to-face conversation with a false god.
A lot of things happened after leaving the valley.
After escaping the threat of the rat tide, Qing Shisan fished for supplies in the river on the Bund for several days.
Finally, we picked up most of the supplies.
As expected of a "ferryman", it is no problem to carve a boat in search of a sword.
They passed by a raider camp on the way.
A train rolled in, certainly an eye-catcher, and the predators attacked the train without hesitation.
Zheng Xiu also became the hands-off shopkeeper this time.
It was said that he was dumping the shopkeeper, but Zheng Xiu was not completely dumped. He injected the "freezing" power into the bullet in advance, temporarily creating a "magic bullet" that was called a "miracle" in the eyes of believers, but was equivalent to a "toy" in the eyes of gods.
With the blessing of "freeze bombs", Mia and other ordinary people are like children holding a magical weapon. One shot kills a child. Even a humanoid leader in the predator camp died of "freeze bombs" with regret because of his carelessness. "under.
Zheng Xiu pulled out a worn leather notebook.
Zheng Xiu recorded many human-like abilities he had encountered on it.
He speculated that the source of the "humanoid" abilities was due to the broken "reason" in this world ship.
Then, understanding the abilities of humanoids and the artifacts of the "Chosen One" might allow Zheng Xiu to better understand the world and the deep logic and ultimate purpose of an old god hidden behind this battle royale.
In addition to "turning the wires of coins into arc cannons";
“Turning a trench coat into a leather suit”;
In addition to "turning hair into drills,"
Zheng Xiu also met seven humanoids this month. Their novel abilities made Zheng Xiu eye-opening and extremely enjoyable.
"Turning towels into iron";
"Turn BB bombs into lava";
"Turn the person you touch with your palm into a lolicon";
“turn your eyes into yo-yos”;
"Transform a well-shaped ring into a hula hoop that can be resized at will";
"Turning all cakes into bombs" (eventually died tragically because no cakes could be found in the apocalypse);
"Turning playing cards into circular saws."
Encountering these weird abilities, Zheng Xiu was sure that the "reason" of this world had collapsed and was shattered into pieces.
"uncle!"
After finishing Sudoku, Shirley was sitting idle on Zheng Xiu's lap, staring longingly at the endless desert outside the window. Suddenly her eyes lit up and she pointed outside: "Uncle, Shirley wants to go skating!"
Yue Linglong, who was holding her chin in deep thought at the side, stumbled when she heard this. She didn't hold her delicate chin, and turned to look at Shirley with a dumbfounded expression.
Ice skating in the desert?
I bet you can figure it out.
"good."
Zheng Xiu jumped out of the train with Shirley in his arms and pressed his palms against the desert. In an instant, with Zheng Xiu as the starting point, the ten kilometers ahead were frozen into a straight skating track.
Although the desert is dry, there is still a very small amount of water vapor remaining in the air. Zheng Xiu dared not say that he could freeze the entire desert with this tiny amount of water vapor, but it would not be a problem to freeze a road for skating.
Wuwuwu——
The train drove hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye, leaving Zheng Xiu and Shirley behind.
Yue Linglong stuck her head out of the window, looked at the big and small, and thought to herself, "Just pamper her." She smiled helplessly and sighed in the wind, "Husband, don't be too far away from the train."
"I know, catch up right away."
Zheng Xiu waved his hand towards Yue Linglong.
Shirley happily took off her shoes and threw them behind her.
"Don't throw your shoes around! It's unbecoming to leave them carelessly!"
Zheng Xiu pretended to be angry, caught Shirley's shoes, and shouted in a low voice.
"Shirley realizes her mistake, uncle."
Shirley stuck out her tongue to show that she knew she was wrong.
"Uncle, can we compete?"
"OK."
"Then...Shirley wants uncle's reward if she wins!"
"award?"
"If Shirley wins, uncle can't sleep with Aunt Yue'er tonight. He has to sleep with Shirley in his arms."
"Uh... why don't you ask your Aunt Yue'er first if she is willing?"
"Hehe! Shirley doesn't ask, uncle agrees!"
Shirley made a face at Zheng Xiu.
The next second, she closed her eyes, and the bulging blood vessels near her eyes pulsed rhythmically. Her feet squirmed with flesh, and with a flash of red light, "pulleys" grew on Shirley's feet, which looked like a pair of "flesh roller skates."
"Artifact·Electric Light!"
Whoosh!
Shirley sprouted roller skates on her feet and sprinted forward along the slide, dragging numerous afterimages behind her. She caught up with the train in the blink of an eye and followed it happily. Her face flushed and she shouted excitedly to Yue Linglong. : "Aunt Yue'er! Look at Shirley! Shirley runs faster than the train!"
"Shelly is so awesome!"
Yue Linglong clapped her hands in unison, looking at Shirley who was still chasing the train with ease, a hint of worry faintly flashed across her peaceful and smiling face.
"Ten kinds of artifacts."
Zheng Xiu walked slowly, taking a step forward, his figure flickering strangely. He seemed to be walking very slowly, but he was able to follow Shirley closely.
As Zheng Xiu walked, he clutched the black leather notebook, biting the tip of the pen, and looked at Shirley's figure flying as fast as lightning, thinking deeply.
In addition to recording the abilities of "humanoids", his little notebook also recorded the "ten artifacts" of the "Chosen One".
Those who possess "artifacts" call themselves "people chosen by God", or "Chosen Ones" for short, and belong to the upper-level human race.
Among the humanoids Zheng Xiu met this month, two of them were the "Chosen Ones".
They each unlocked two of the ten artifacts.
"Iron cannon" and "prestige".
"Iron Cannon" is an "artifact" that turns the palm of your hand into a cannon barrel. It can release cannonballs that are slightly more powerful than the thermal weapons of individual combat in old civilizations.
"Awesome" means that the flesh and blood of the forearm will turn into a shield, which has strong defensive power.
"The long-distance output artifact 'Iron Cannon', the defensive artifact 'Awe', the slashing artifact 'Quick Knife', the speed artifact 'Electric Light', the capturing artifact 'Traveler'..."
Zheng Xiu's notebook recorded five kinds of artifacts.
That's half the story.
Shirley's talent is very high.
She only saw it once, and it didn't take long for her to learn the "Iron Cannon", "Awesomeness", and "Electric Light". Together with the "Quick Knife" that was the first to be unlocked, Shirley has now learned four kinds of magical weapons.
In addition, she has a bug-level causality ability hidden in her body that even she herself doesn't know about, "turning ideals into reality."
Zheng Xiu reasonably suspected that if Lady Anne's "various systems" existed in this world, Shirley would be the "protagonist" or "saint" in this apocalyptic world.
That's why Zheng Xiu placed Shirley next to him and raised her like a niece. The first is to observe Shirley's growth, and the second is to properly guide Shirley's emotions and thoughts. This BUG-level ability of "turning ideals into reality" will cause big trouble if not done well.
After a month of getting along, Zheng Xiu gradually figured out the rules of "turning ideals into reality". The "ideal" in this ability must be the "ideal" recognized by Shirley from the bottom of her heart, or the "desire" or "wishes", so that it can be realized. If Shirley is unhappy with something, or doesn't like it, and she insists on doing it, the final result may be counterproductive.
"yeah!"
The distance of ten kilometers was reached in an instant under the footsteps of a god and a super humanoid.
Shirley was even faster than the train.
She was the first to reach the finish line, raised her arms and shouted loudly: "Uncle is Shirley's tonight!"
"Um?"
In the carriage, Yue Linglong heard these words and felt alert.
The train is getting closer to the tower.
It turns out that this "iron tower", which was once a splendid cultural symbol of the ancient civilization, is not a mirage, but a real building standing in the desert.
boom!
In the center of the 400-meter-high iron tower, on the first-floor observation deck, a gunshot rang out without warning.
The bullet spanned a terrifying distance of nearly a kilometer, a super-long-range sniper shot, and hit Zheng Xiu's head like a cannonball.
On the tower.
Behind the heavy sniper rifle set up in advance, a young man with a delicate face looked up in shock.
"Report to the boss, there is a train approaching in the distance, it may be the train gang that has been making a lot of noise outside recently!"
"What? The Train Gang is here?"
"Yes, there is a muscular man skating on the desert... I suspect he is humanoid."
"Quick! Don't let the humanoids get close!"
"I shot, shot, shot him in the head."
"Fuck! Great job!"
The young man put his eyes on the infrared sight again and said over the intercom with some uncertainty:
"But...his head shook a little,"
"It looks like he blocked it with his head..."
"Fart! That's a special-purpose heavy-duty sniper rifle! Even a military tank has to shake! Can a humanoid be tougher than a military tank without any defense???"
Gudong.
The young man wanted to say that the muscular man looked very hard.
But he didn't have time to say these words.
The muscular man whose head was shot in the scope touched his head, raised his head in his direction, and grinned.
In an instant, the young man's hands were filled with sweat.
Please give me a monthly ticket and subscribe! It’s time to eat dirt, brothers!
