Resa stretched his arms and looked at the time on the display. More than three hours had passed. Unexpectedly, he was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't even notice the passage of time.

There was a chaotic sound in the square, including the sound of bullets being loaded, and some strange clicking sounds, which were the sounds caused by the rapid deformation of the guidance device.

Resa silently tied up the cloak and clicked on the operating panel of the personal terminal on his left wrist. The cloak began to slowly become transparent, and a protective mask covered his cheeks, completely wrapping his face for protection and anti-virus.

As a result, after a moment, his figure disappeared from the spot, as if completely integrated with the surroundings.

He didn't make any noise, he just stood quietly inside the folding device in the square. Maybe ordinary people wouldn't be able to detect his invisibility, but the scanning device would definitely detect it.

As the crowds around them continued to gather, the small square was finally completely filled with people. A countdown began to flash on the huge screen in the square. This was the waiting time for the jump device to start. As the time continued to decrease, the crowds

It gradually became quiet, Resa remained invisible, and stood quietly among the crowd. When time returned to zero, purple space ripples appeared around the entire small square. With a flash of light, the square was filled with light again.

Silence was restored.

Resa opened his eyes. It was still daytime in the wilderness, but there was a hazy gray mist in the sky, blocking most of the sunlight. This was a deserted land, and green vegetation was simply a luxury. Resa conveyed it through the mask.

He did not stop moving to understand the surrounding environment. He recorded the current position on the operating panel on his wrist so that he could summon the jump gate to return to the jump fortress.

At this time, the scanning information was also transmitted back. Resa's location was not very good, and this area was obviously different from the areas he had explored before (although the entire earth was considered a wilderness, human explorers could set foot in

The area is not very big, so there will be situations where you go to repeated areas).

Obviously this is an unknown area for Resa. According to the data sensed by the mask, the air quality in this area is temporarily within the safety standard. Resa installed the anti-venom serum and neuroactive reagent into the reagent recess of the wrist armor.

In the slot, this is also a major advantage of the auxiliary equipment developed by the Explorer Alliance.

When the external sensor senses that the surrounding environment poses a threat to the user or the built-in sensor senses that the user's status is not right, it will screen the reagent model in the reagent tank and automatically use the reagent, thereby avoiding the need for emergency response.

This is an embarrassing situation where the user cannot use medicine. The number of reagent tanks varies depending on the level of the wrist armor, ranging from 10 to 2.

With a thought in Resa's mind, the nerve center command was issued, and the mask on the face was opened. When the air quality in the area is within the safety standard, explorers will generally remove the tactical mask. After all, although the mask can filter the air, it does not provide emergency oxygen inside.

The amount of oxygen remains unchanged. When you can breathe, it is a safer choice to reserve emergency oxygen supply.

Reza did not remove the cloak's invisibility function, but installed three energy rods on its energy tank. In this way, the energy supply of the invisibility cloak could be maintained in a short period of time without extracting power from itself. This time, Lei Sa came out.

Sa does not intend to stay in the wilderness for too long. If he does not achieve his desired goal within two days, he will choose to leave, regardless of the harvest.

Surrounded by desolation, forests, mountains, rivers, none of these, here

It looks more like a desert, but the soil here is obviously different from the desert.

It can't be so unlucky! Resa thought to himself. He looked around and saw the outline of a city in the distance.

There are three forbidden areas spread among explorers:

The first forbidden area is the sea or the seaside. There are often beasts in the sea that are too powerful to deal with, and some methods such as mechanics will be greatly reduced in water battles. Only explorers with guidance devices can take advantage.

Therefore, the Explorer Alliance's jump nodes try to avoid being close to the seaside, even though there are far more resources in the sea than on land.

The second forbidden area is the forest. Forests, especially large forests. These resources have been cut down by humans long ago, but they quickly spread across the earth after the beginning of the Celestial Beast Era. Forests are often owned by the Celestial Beasts.

In paradise, they can lurk silently and hunt when you are not careful. The complex environment makes explorers tired of dealing with it. Even mechanics with powerful firepower cannot gain any benefit from fighting in the jungle.

As for the third forbidden area, they are urban ruins. The high-tech products in cities before the end of the world are undoubtedly outdated compared to now, and they often do not have the resources that are urgently needed at this stage. As a place for human survival, cities have a population.

The density is generally very high, so urban ruins have basically become a paradise for humans and beasts. Whether they are mutated humanoid creatures or dead apostles transformed by viruses or drugs, they are the main colors of urban ruins.

These humans and beasts often have little value, but their huge base will consume a lot of ammunition or abilities of the explorers.

This is undoubtedly a thankless job, so few explorers like to get close to the city. Another point is that no one dares to lose the city’s defense system. It is very likely that during your careful search, someone in front of you will

A sentry machine gun or turret will flip out of the corner. If you are not careful, it is very possible to lose your life.

Reza looked around, but there seemed to be little value for exploration. Except for the outline of the city, it was surrounded by desolate Gobi.

Could it be that he really had no choice but to try his luck in that city ruins? Reza thought with some annoyance. It was really a bad start.

This time his target is the fifth-level earth beast crystal core, but if he goes to the ruins of the city, he doesn't know if there are any earth beasts, but there are definitely a lot of mutated human beasts and dead disciples. After all, nearly 10 billion humans have truly survived.

Only less than 10% of the population came down. Although there are 12 space nodes for human beings to reproduce and live, this is the real home after all, so the number of humans and beasts here makes me feel chilly just thinking about it.

Resa cautiously moved towards the ruins of the city. In this scene, it seemed that only this ruin was worth exploring. Since the outline of the city could be seen, it meant that the distance was not far away.

Wangshan Run is talking about the current situation. After Resa traveled for 2 hours, the outline of the city only looked a little clearer. It seems that the ruins have begun to take shape, but I don’t know if it will.

There will be high-level beasts.

Resa gently clicked the personal terminal operation panel on his wrist, and covered his eyes with a pair of combat goggles, so that he could detect some subtle dangers in advance, such as some mechanics' traps or landmines.

They will be identified and marked to avoid stepping on traps set by other explorers or city defenses that have not lost their effectiveness.

After three hours of continuous march, Reza finally approached the edge of the city. During this period, he replaced the energy rod in the invisibility cloak twice.

As he moved forward, the surrounding scene changed. At the beginning, some scattered vehicle wreckage and some decayed bones could be seen. These bones had obviously been there for a long time, even if they were lightly

If you step on it, it will turn into bone residue all over the ground with a clicking sound.

As we get closer and closer to the ruins of the city, more and more vehicle wreckage are crowded together, and the rotten bones cover the ground. When you step on them, they make bursts of heart-wrenching creaking sounds and some creepy clicking sounds.

.

Resa's movements gradually slowed down. He did not expect that what he saw in the ruins of the city was not a sea of ​​humans and beasts, but a sea of ​​bones. Various vehicles were crowded, colliding, or deformed.

Either overturned or crushed into a discus, the breeze blew, and a whirlwind of bone powder rolled up on the ground, making Resa's heart tremble.

Resa didn't know what happened to this city, but judging from the scene in front of him, it was tantamount to experiencing a real purgatory on earth. As he came to the edge of the city, some huge beast-shaped skeletons were lying around,

Or turn to, judging from the size of these skeletons, these can basically be very powerful earth beast-level existences, but here, they are shot one by one, and then think about the direction of travel of those vehicles and bones.

, Resa probably guessed 7788.

The natural beast disaster broke out, and people rushed to gather in the surrounding cities. However, this move attracted a large number of earth beasts to chase and kill. After killing a large number of humans, these earth beasts were captured by the city defenses of large cities.

The artillery fired one by one, and the crooked forts on the city wall are the best proof.

But it was obvious that these forts alone could not stop the beast tide, so after shooting some earth beasts, the city still fell.

Resa searched among the corpses of these earth beasts. Unfortunately, the energy cores of these earth beasts had long since disappeared. In all likelihood, they had been devoured by the same kind.

Resa checked it out, and after confirming that there was nothing valuable here, he began to lean towards the city wall. As for some gold, silver, jewelry and other pre-apocalyptic luxuries mixed in the bones, Resa couldn't even see it.

I haven’t even looked at it. These things can at most please girls. As for exchanging exploration points, these things have basically no value.

Instead of paying attention to these yellow and white things, it is better to see if there is any possibility of recycling the homing turret beside the city wall.

Resa carefully touched the homing turret under the city wall. These things are rarely sold even by the Explorer Alliance. After the programmer writes the program, the homing cannon will run according to the established program and can even be replaced independently.

Drum ammunition, and a self-guided turret like this is often more powerful than a self-propelled sentry cannon, but the rate of fire of a self-guided turret is much slower.

Reza has never seen these mechanical equipment before the end of the world, so he has relatively little knowledge about it. The main reason is that he believes that nothing valuable can be found in the ruins of the city, but these forts are explorers.

One of the items the Alliance may recycle.

Resa slowly approached a relatively complete fort. Just when he was within ten meters of the fort, several red box marks suddenly appeared on his combat goggles, followed by a slight clicking sound.
Chapter completed!
