"Wuji, you are great, but we are just a civil defense team and cannot apply for combat merit for you. This is everyone's wish."
Zhao Wuji looked at an assault rifle that looked a bit like an M1 and a gun license on the table.
"If you are willing to join us, we will give you the position of deputy captain immediately."
"Brother, I have an outstanding senior high school student who will go to college soon. I have already rejected him several times, so don't try to persuade me."
"Yes, that's right. Anyway, Wuji, as long as you are willing, our 80 City Guards will welcome you at any time."
"OK"
The city guards in Zhucheng are organized according to their respective floors, but the headquarters is uniformly stationed on the 50th floor.
The assault rifle was of little significance to Zhao Wuji, but the gun license was of comparative use.
"I want to register as a hunter"
"Young man, do you have a gun license? If not, you should take the test first."
The person at the window said a little arrogantly
"Here, gun permit"
"Not bad. He took the gun license test just after he turned 18. He's quite a talent."
The office quickly gave Zhao Wuji a registered hunter certificate.
"Young man, congratulations, but don't be brave. Although the outside world is wonderful, it is also very dangerous."
"Thanks"
"You are a 22nd-level talent, why do you need to make a living with those at the lower level?"
"Just find another way for yourself."
"Life is in a hurry,,, next one"
The clerk was a little emotional and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the work in front of him.
Zhao Wuji left the certificate processing hall and arrived at the hunter's exclusive exit passage.
This kind of exit channel is a one-way semi-automated channel, as long as the certificate inspection passes.
"Mount Everest has issued a level three warning, please hunters please pay attention to safety"
The electronically synthesized voice gives advice to each hunter who leaves the city through the dedicated channel.
According to Zhucheng regulations, after the level three warning, ordinary people are not allowed to leave the city for activities.
Although few ordinary people are willing to leave Zhucheng and be affected by radiation dust in the ice and snow outside even when it is safe.
After the second level warning, no one except the regular army can leave Zhucheng.
Except for angry young people, generally no one would risk their lives to challenge these rules that have been established for more than a hundred years.
Of course, Zhao Wuji didn't challenge him, but gained the confidence after rescuing the civil defense team member last night.
Although mutants are intelligent, their intelligence can sometimes mislead people. They think that ordinary people cannot see them, but when they encounter Zhao Wuji's water magic induction detection, it is a gift.
At least that's what Zhao Wuji thought.
Shortly after Zhao Wuji left Zhucheng, he rode a rented tram and quickly arrived at the place where he was attacked two days ago.
Zhao Wuji looked around and found that except for the broken armored armored vehicles at the bottom of the valley that were frozen in ice and snow, all other traces had been cleaned up.
As for whether it was done by monsters or mutants, that is unknown.
“The world is so cruel”
Zhao Wuji took out the system equipment M1 and fired at the mammoth beast.
“It’s better to use a gun that doesn’t lack bullets.”
"Boom, boom"
Two boulders fell
"Trouble, this is an IQ launch."
Zhao Wuji's water magic sensing range was not very large, and he could barely avoid the boulder's attack, but he was unable to sense mutants in the distance.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"
Ice arrows also started shooting over.
"Tap tap tap"
"The sound of horse hooves? Is the Iron Horse of Glacier dreaming?"
Zhao Wuji retreated towards Zhucheng in embarrassment while fighting.
The unlimited barrage of system equipment made the mutants afraid to move forward, but some unintelligent monsters bravely charged forward without fear. Of course, they eventually entered Zhao Wuji's void space.
"Boom boom boom"
Zhao Wuji was still within the city defense artillery fire range, and the city defense artillery fire began to cover and strike indiscriminately.
"The ground is washed away by artillery fire, and human life is taken lightly."
Zhao Wuji looked at the remote-controlled cannons hanging outside the mountain and kept firing. He cursed at himself and rushed into the security tunnel with all his strength.
"Haha, you want to sneak attack me into the city"
A transparent mutant was discovered by Zhao Wuji's water magic induction, and was directly killed and taken into the void space.
“The harvest is not bad”
After returning home after a series of security checks, Zhao Wuji began to search for various demon cores in the Mixu space.
"Sure enough, the bigger the creature is, the bigger the monster core is. This mammoth monster core is bigger than a fist."
Zhao Wuji sat down cross-legged and activated the Star Absorbing Technique. In less than half an hour, he had finished refining and absorbing all the demon cores. He glanced at the small screen provided by the system.
Qi and blood: 200+
Energy: 160
Superpower: Water Essence+
"Well, it turns out that the bigger the demon core is, the greater the upper limit of blood it can increase."
Zhao Wuji cut a piece of mutated mammoth meat and cooked it in the microwave, added some sesame oil, ate it and then revised the Nine Yin Manual.
Qi and blood: 200+
Energy: 200
Superpower: Water Essence+
"It turns out that's the case. As long as I have enough demon core and demon beast meat, I can improve relatively quickly."
Zhao Wuji had a good sleep and woke up to see the message that Ji Ruchun was going shopping.
"Just in time, let's take a look at the price of monster meat."
Ji Ruchun took Zhao Wuji around aimlessly.
"I always feel like you have changed"
Zhao Xiaoji used the memory reset skill. It turned out that Zhao Xiaoji was a bit unable to let go in front of Ji Ruchun, but now he was free and easy, which aroused Ji Ruchun's emotion.
"As people grow up, they change somewhat."
"It makes sense. Your upper limit of energy and blood is over 80, so naturally you are not the same guy who failed in energy and blood before."
"I guess it's almost 100."
"Ah, so fast?"
"I bought some demon cores to absorb"
"Rich people are different"
Ji Ruchun thought that Zhao Wuji had the same absorption efficiency as ordinary people, and he had to spend a lot of money to achieve it.
"Well, all the money to marry you is spent."
"Hurry up and save money"
"Um"
The two strolled into a large supermarket
"Young man, buy some monster meat. I have mutated tiger meat, which costs 1,000 yuan per pound."
"This is ordinary pork. It only costs 100 yuan per catty. Be careful, I will go to the mall to file a complaint against you."
"Good taste, but this is not an ordinary pig. It belongs to a wild boar. Although it is not as valuable as a mutated pig, it is still valuable. Since you are serious, how about a deal of 100?"
The market on the 22nd floor is a bit like a Carrefour shopping mall on Earth. It operates on a large scale, with options and orders.
"Come to my house for dinner?"
"Farewell, I'll talk to my parents when they get home."
"Well, I heard from my dad that they were not injured, but their trip was delayed indefinitely."
"Um"
Zhao Wuji and Ji Ruchun walked separately.
"Didi didi"
Zhao Wuji glanced at the message on his phone. It was a message from the captain of the 80th Squadron of the City Defense Brigade.
"We are going out of town for training again, will you come to join us?"
Zhao Wuji now understands that the essence of this kind of training is to serve as bait for city defense artillery fire, and ordinary people are the bait in the bait.
"Thank you, maybe next time"
When Zhao Wuji registered as a hunter, he knew that there were many opportunities like this in the city guard squadron on the 22nd floor.
So I simply replied to the message and went home to continue practicing and consolidate my realm.
"Didi didi"
"Temporary recruitment notice,,,,,,,, City Defense Brigade 22 Squadron"
Zhao Wuji glanced at the screen display under his eyelids. Three + signs were displayed. Knowing that the realm was fixed, he followed the temporary recruitment notice and went to the reporting office of the 22nd Squadron.
"Due to the need for city defense, according to the hunter registration record, you have been temporarily recruited for a week, and your task is to cooperate with the Guards' operations,,,"
“The official information is really well-informed.”
Zhao Wuji looked around and saw a familiar classmate from the quarantine class, so he leaned over.
"Are you from Class 3?"
"Are you from Class 1?"
"Yes, my name is Zhao Wuji"
"Yes, my name is Dawn"
"Is there no one else?"
"Probably not. They may not have a hunter's license yet and can only participate in the training organized by the school. Now under the level three alert, they are not allowed to leave the city."
"Ah, you are a senior hunter"
"It's fate. Both my parents are hunters. It's passed down from our ancestors."
"Ling Ming, your Gehrig gun is better than mine."
"Wuji, your M-series assault rifle is also very good."
The two exchanged a few business words and formed a small group.
"Everyone, please stop talking and let me introduce the situation."
"The City Management Bureau received reports of mutants found outside the city, which affected normal hunting, affected normal production, and required us to solve it as soon as possible."
"Our troops will charge forward, you must ensure that we can retreat safely,,,,,"
After listening to a round of mobilization, the two finally understood that the core of the mission was the "urban migrant workers" who came to work as logistics.
"Wuji, follow me closely after you leave the city. I am more experienced than you."
"Okay, Dawn."
Zhao Wuji believed that his abilities were no worse than Liming's, but he didn't tell the truth.
The ideals of the City Guards were very full, but the reality was more broken. The two sides were fighting hand to hand, and they were attacked by Kunpeng. They retreated with the loss of troops.
The severe situation spread rapidly and prices rose rapidly. In just a few days, except for rice and flour, the prices of everything else doubled.
Especially after knowing that other levels of city guards have also suffered serious setbacks, even rice, flour, etc. can only be supplied in limited quantities based on certificates.
Zhucheng also immediately upgraded to a level two warning and issued a notice of the start of the beast tide.
Through the thick bulletproof glass windows of his home, Zhao Wuji could see the birds and animals outside the city that blocked the sky.
The city defense cannons were gradually destroyed by the monsters who feared no death.
Zhao Wuji has experimented with using the water spirit's supernatural power to attack the outside world. It cannot be said that it is ineffective, but the efficiency is limited and can only ensure that the bulletproof glass windows are not blocked.
"The official is recruiting supernatural combat forces. Do you think I am suitable to participate?"
“Inappropriate”
Ji Ruchun pouted her little mouth and said
"You've asked me three times. As long as you still care about me, don't go. I don't want to be a widow."
"It seems you and I haven't obtained the certificate yet."
Ji Ruchun was so angry that she wanted to go home
"Take this piece of meat"
On the first day of the second-level lockdown, Zhao Wuji filled the refrigerator at home with monster meat taken from the Mixu space.
"You don't even have anything to eat? Why are you so embarrassed to take yours every day?"
"Compared to your high-tech soft armor, what does this mean?"
"Well, you should stop running to the black market. I heard my parents say that black market transactions are just the official relaxation of management. As long as the crisis is over, some people will still be settled."
"Don't worry, I only buy and not sell, it's no problem."
"You look like you are rich. Where did you get it from?"
"Given by parents"
"Your parents are just scientists, not bankers."
"Go home. The money they have for both of them is enough for me to spend alone."
"All right"
Zhao Wuji sent Ji Ruchun home. Looking at the large amount of monster meat in the Mi Xu space, he shook his head helplessly.
"I don't dare to sell it for money, otherwise I can become a little rich man."
"Didi didi"
"Due to city defense needs, according to the hunter registration record, you are temporarily recruited into the Guards. Please come immediately,,,, otherwise,,,"
"You are in a hurry and seek medical treatment?"
With his head full of questions, Zhao Wuji followed the address on his cell phone to the Guards reporting point on the 20th floor.
"Name, age, address"
"Regardless of gender?"
"Don't be kidding, this is a regular recruitment notice for the army."
"Can you explain the rules?"
"I don't know. The temporary recruitment notice above never states the reason."
Zhao Wuji looked at the empty hall
"Only me?"
"I don't know, this is your notice, Second Lieutenant Zhao"
The beautiful woman who printed the notice suddenly stood up and saluted Zhao Wuji.
"Second Lieutenant Zhao, I am Sergeant Qian Wumei"
"Can you tell me the reason now?"
"It's not possible according to discipline, but your military rank is higher than mine, and I obey your orders. Please see."
Zhao Wuji looked at the computer screen where the beauty turned
Except for the name, photo, and military rank displayed on the screen, the rest of the screen is covered in mosaics.
"How do you understand this? I just graduated from high school and haven't gone to college yet. Why is it so mysterious? Could it be a mistake?"
"Probably not"
Qian Wumei saw that Zhao Wuji didn't look like the kind of person who would be playful and cheerful just to pursue himself, so she used the privileges of the military department to enter the civilian system.
"Your general file has also been sealed."
Qian Wumei turned the computer screen to Zhao Wuji again.
Zhao Wuji's own file that he had seen a few days ago clearly showed various values, but now it is indeed blocked and cannot be seen.
"Could it be that I got first place in the college entrance examination?"
Qian Wumei finally couldn't help but smile charmingly
"Don't think about it. Just follow this notice and it will be clear."
"All right"
Zhao Wuji was a little confused and went to the military headquarters on the 19th floor according to the notification, and saw an acquaintance.
"Brother Hui? Why are you here?"
"Haha, Zhao Wuji, come with me."
Zhao Wuji was taken into an office
"Rong Hui recommended you to us, we also checked your information, and now you are recruited to join the special force team for a period of two years. You cannot refuse. This is the obligation of all Zhucheng residents."
"Can't refuse?"
"Well, you can't refuse, otherwise it will have a negative impact on your future, your parents' future, and the future of everyone around you. This is your certificate."
Zhao Wuji took it and saw that it was indeed the military's mysterious special service team.
"Rong Hui, take him to see his comrades, next one"
"Brother Hui, are you betraying me?"
"Don't say that. You exposed yourself. You used hypnosis on me on the 80th floor and your superiors discovered it."
"Ah, do you have listening equipment on you?"
"Yes, every member of the special force team will carry this kind of equipment when they go on a mission."
"Why did you go to the 80th floor?"
"It's simple, secretly test the Civil Defense Team"
"Why did you attack me today?"
"You are a student with a clean background. Originally, the special service team was prepared to let you go, but now there are few people with special abilities, so even people like you who don't have much combat power have been recruited according to the law. It's better than putting you in jail, right?"
"It's not that serious, is it?"
"Haha, you have to thank me for this. I was performing military duties at the time. If I didn't let you go, you would be hindering military operations. But I let you go. Now the higher-ups have recruited you, which is a very ideal result."
"Thank you Lieutenant Rong"
"Thank you, we will be comrades with the same military rank from now on."
"What is your power?"
