Five years have passed since the natural beast disaster in 2246. Humanity has shrunk to the frost, fog and rain, spring hibernation, Mingyu, Rongxia, Mangxia, Yanyu, Autumn, Autumn Dew, and Frost used as a logistics base.

Among the twelve space nodes of Luo, Frost Rain, and Frost Snow, the nodes are named to correspond to the original twelve months.

These nodes are large and small, and are used to maintain human survival. Of course, not all survivors can enter the space nodes, so there are still quite a few people struggling to survive in the post-apocalyptic environment, and finally slowly

Toward destruction.

"The nightmare has become a thing of the past, and what awaits us will be a better tomorrow..." Resa looked at the azure crystal card in his hand and shook his head noncommittally. With a flick of his finger, the briefing on the azure crystal was closed.

The surroundings became quiet again.

Is the nightmare really a thing of the past? Who can say clearly? Looking at the blue crystal card in his hand, Resa couldn't help but sigh.

Five years have passed since the last catastrophe, and Resa has become one of the explorers of human resources. Since the safest places are only these space nodes, the space jump device requires energy to maintain, and this has long been the case.

On a changed earth, some strange crystals or the crystal nuclei of heavenly beasts have become the best energy supply.

Every day, a large number of explorers travel between nodes and the outside world through jump devices. Of course, a large number of explorers die every day from various attacks. As for the resources obtained, explorers can and explore

Alliance with other players in exchange for necessities of life or...extremely scarce medicines.

Resa put the blue crystal card into the secret pocket on his chest. This is a high-tech product issued by the Explorer Alliance. It is divided into five colors. From low to high, they are white, green, blue, purple, gold, and white.

It can only be used to store contribution data and connections. As for the highest level of gold, it is said that space crossing technology is added to it, which allows the holder to perform spatial displacement in a short distance and even store certain items.

Of course, everything in the world is not absolute. It is said that there is an extremely rare crystal card on top of the golden crystal card. It is not correct. It is a bit unflattering to say that it is a crystal card. It is a dark golden crystal, which is everything to human beings.

There are only 12 crystals of technology in existence. As for its efficacy, no one knows. They only know that these mysterious dark gold crystals are in the hands of the controllers of the twelve nodes.

Reza touched his chest. There was a spar necklace that exuded a touch of warmth. It was one of the items left to him by his father, and now it has become his amulet. Every time he goes out to explore and is about to encounter danger,

This spar necklace will reveal a hint of coolness as a warning.

It seems that his father is also a powerful explorer. Every time he touches the necklace, Reza will think so.

At least, the luster and texture of this crystal are more like the crystal core of a heavenly beast.

Gently opening the door, Resa stood quietly outside Dibeca's room for a moment. He could vaguely hear the breathing coming from inside the room. It seemed that the girl was not awake yet. Resa shook his head and walked softly.

Get out of the house.

The morning light has not yet risen, but both sides of the street are still extremely lively. There is no way, after this apocalypse, the economic framework of the world has become a bubble. The real wealth is no longer knowledge and money, but the explorers who have been

The strange crystal mines and celestial beast crystal cores being explored.

Turning these resources over to the Explorer Alliance in exchange for contributions and rewards is one way. If you are strong enough, exchanging scarce luxuries with some big families is also a good choice. This proportion currently dominates. Sure enough, humans are happy

What about a comfortable species?

Resa was already accustomed to this kind of scene, so he just walked quietly towards the splendid tall building at the end of the street.

What he needs most now is the supplies and medicines provided by the Alliance of Explorers. During the celestial beast wave five years ago, both he and DiBecca were affected to a certain extent. Although the symptoms were not determined, if there is no medicine

Suppression will occur within a certain period of time.

The pain in her body was like a knife cutting her bones. As for Dibeca, her condition was slightly different. Without the intake of special elements, she would fall into a deep sleep. This situation made Ressa even more crazy.

He still remembered that two years ago, he went out to explore for a long time. When he came back, Debecca had fallen into a deep sleep, with a faint trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, and the breath of life was very weak.

In the end, the panicked Resa almost ran through the entire node and spent all the saved exploration points to wake Dibeca from her slumber.

It was also that time, after waking up, Debecca retreated a lot from his indifference.

This situation was always like a sharp sword hanging over Resa's head, making him somewhat breathless.

Genetic research has always been the main research direction of mankind, and he did not want himself and his sister to become experimental subjects dedicated to human genetic research for some special reasons.

……………………

Walking into the hall, a series of cryptic glances came together. Most of the owners of the gaze were golden fingers who were active in the city, and a few were explorers who had been frightened by the wilderness.

They gather here, and their tricky eyes allow them to discover many interesting things, and get some benefits by the way. Selling the explorer's exchange information to other forces is their main source of income. Of course, if the target is a soft persimmon, they will also

I don’t mind doing it myself. After all, the most trustworthy person is yourself.

Resa ignored those hidden glances and just tightened the hood on his head to cover most of his face. He didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

He walked straight to the reception area of ​​the hall, his throat slid slightly, and a hoarse voice came from under the hood: "In exchange for two purple snake fruits." As he said that, he handed over the blue crystal card.

And the cryptic eyes around them brightened. This purple snake fruit is actually a high-grade apple cultivated by snake fruit using some special techniques. However, in this apocalyptic world, these are luxuries that only big powers will come into contact with.

Even master explorers who hold amethyst cards will not be so luxurious as to exchange exploration points for these things. In this apocalyptic environment, using a large amount of extremely precious exploration points to satisfy the appetite is a must for every swordsman.

The explorer who licks blood from his head is disdainful.

As for the exploration value, it is a digital currency issued by the Explorer Alliance based on the materials or resources turned in by the explorers. It is also the only currency that exists in this apocalyptic world.

Without exception, the reception area of ​​the Explorer Alliance is full of young and beautiful women. According to the divisions before the earth's great changes, beauties from all countries and regions are included.

These young women are not receptionists hired by the Explorer Alliance. They are trained by the Explorer Alliance. As long as you can afford the price, you can choose these women.

You don't have to worry about loyalty issues. These women have been professionally trained and have absolute obedience to their masters. They even have smart chips implanted in their brains by the Explorer Alliance, which can influence their thinking.

As long as the owner is bound, the smart chip will subtly make it completely obey the chip holder. This will not affect the self-thinking and personality of these girls.

Having said all that, the prices of these girls are quite high. Even some explorers with strong financial resources will not consider buying a partner who is only loyal to themselves. With a full 10,000 exploration points, as long as they are willing to reveal it, they will naturally have it.

A large number of girls flocked to him. Therefore, these girls became "luxury goods" that only those with strong backgrounds could enjoy.

The person who received Resa was a girl with a wheat-colored complexion. Her faint smile gave people a feeling of spring breeze.

She took the blue crystal card handed over by Resa with a smile. The two looming dimples made the girl's smile even more charming. Resa couldn't help but take a second look.

The long pink-maroon ponytail hangs down to her waist, and its soft luster reveals a sense of delicacy. The girl's eyes are very beautiful, with a touch of pink-purple in the sky-blue pupils, and the pupils are slightly vertical. If you look carefully, you can see

, there are two small cat ears hidden under the girl's hair, she is actually a genetically modified person.

In a hurry, Resa didn't notice the girl's pair of small cat ears. He just waited silently for the girl to help him complete the exchange.

The girl placed the blue crystal card on the crystal holder in front of her and lightly swiped it. The dazzling red words were displayed on the transparent screen in front of Resa. The girl looked at Resa apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir, for your exploration."

It’s not worth enough to exchange for two purple snake fruits, is there anything else I can help you with?”

"That's it!" A hoarse voice said: "Then is there a separate reception room? I have some things that I want to exchange with the alliance, and it's not convenient to take them out here."

The girl watched Resa's Adam's apple trembling, and inexplicably, her heart also trembled. Suddenly, she remembered an incident that happened about a year ago. At that time, there was also an explorer.

He came to exchange items, but he didn't have enough exploration points, so he proposed to exchange some things in a separate living room. The girl who received him took him to a separate living room.

But after entering a separate reception room, he went out of his way, locked the reception room, and then raped the girl. Although the guardian broke through the door at an extremely fast speed, the girl's life was over, and no one could

Will spend a lot of money to buy a second-hand one.

I heard Sister Sha talk about it some time ago. I saw her in the market on Gray Street a few days ago, but her body was covered with filth, her eyes were dull, and she was staggering unconsciously on the street corner with a big belly. Thinking of this, this

Not only did the girl feel a little creepy, could this happen to her too?

The girl raised her head with some fear, her Adam's apple sliding in front of her eyes was very dazzling.

With a stiff smile on her face, the girl said apologetically: "I'm sorry.

Sir, our private reception room has not yet opened. If you are not particularly anxious, please wait a moment longer."

Looking at the slightly stiff face of the girl opposite and the hint of fear hidden under the smile, Resa was slightly silent. Soon, he thought of the minor incident a year ago, and then...

He smiled bitterly at himself: "Do I look like a bad guy in this costume?"

If there was a mirror in front of him, maybe after he looked in the mirror, he might not have such doubts.

The man's silence made the girls a little uneasy. It was their taboo to refuse reasonable requests from customers. Even an ordinary explorer was not something they could afford to offend.

"Then, please help me exchange this for adventure value!" Resa shook his head helplessly, and a pale pink crystal the size of a pigeon egg, emitting a strange light, appeared in Resa's hand.

With the appearance of the crystal, the hall suddenly became quiet. Those who were huddled in the corner of the hall, whether they were playing cards or wiping their firearms, all made sudden movements in their hands. If it weren't for the Explorer League hall,

You can take action, I'm afraid someone is already going to hand Resa a knife.

"This is?" The girl was slightly stunned. With the appearance of this crystal, all the previous thoughts in her mind had disappeared.

Having received professional training, she can naturally recognize that this is a valuable piece of celestial beast crystal core. However, without identification, she still doesn’t know whether it belongs to a celestial beast or an earth beast, but it can emit such a luster.

At least it must be the crystal core of the earth beast.

"I'm sorry, sir, for bringing you unnecessary trouble." The girl is a perceptive person. She knows how much unnecessary trouble this will bring to the man in front of her. So she told Resa very sincerely.

apologized.

"It's okay, please help me exchange it. By the way, this is the crystal core obtained from the second-level earth beast Dragon Fox." Resa put the crystal that exuded light pink light into the girl's hand.

He could see the girl's nervousness and uneasiness, so he pretended not to care.

Resa's nonchalant attitude made the girl feel slightly at ease, but her hand that took the crystal core was still trembling slightly.

Countless cryptic glances turned from Resa's hand to the crystal core in the girl's hand. Chi Guoguo's greed was undisguised, but they didn't have the guts to cause trouble in the hall of the Explorer Alliance. It seemed that

, we can only wait for this thin guy to go out and make a small profit.

The girl put the crystal core into the sealed cabinet with trembling hands. The dense and fiery gaze made her a little nervous. It was not until the sealing of the crystal core was completed that she breathed a sigh of relief, and then said respectfully: "Mr. Explorer

, I have kept you waiting for a long time, my name is Nuan Xin, and it is my honor to serve you. According to the regulations of the Explorer Alliance, the fourth-level earth beast crystal core can exchange you for 2200 points of exploration value, plus your crystal core.

The remaining amount in the card is a total of 2430 exploration points. Is there anything else I can help you with?"

"Just two purple snake fruits! Nothing else is needed for now." Resa waved her hand. The girl's fingers jumped flexibly on the crystal screen. After a few seconds, a translucent box slowly flew to Resa.

In front of Sa, the box was opened, containing two crystal clear purple-red snake fruits.

"Sir, after deducting the exploration points of two purple snake fruits, your crystal card now has a balance of 1930 points." Nuan Xin respectfully handed the crystal card in her hand to Resa. Now, in Nuan Xin's eyes, Resa He has become the kind of explorer with outstanding strength. After all, earth beasts cannot be killed simply.

"Okay, thank you." Reza lightly swiped the blue crystal card on the crystal table in front of him: "These 30 points will be regarded as the service fee for you."

Nuan Xin was very pleasantly surprised. It seemed that she had good luck today! She carefully took out a pink crystal card (the actual level of the pink crystal card is only equivalent to the green crystal card. The reason why it is made pink is for convenience. To identify their identities, they will turn into green crystal cards only after they are bought.) Gently swiping on the crystal table, the number on it changed from 618 points to 648 points. Covering up the little excitement in my heart , Nuan Xin asked respectfully: "May good luck always favor you. Dear sir, is there anything else Nuan Xin can do to help you?"

"That's it! Thank you." Resa waved his hand. The goal was achieved, so let's go home as soon as possible! Thinking of this, Resa waved his hand and walked out of the hall.

Looking at the people who were about to move in a corner, Nuan Xin's heart trembled, and she quickly shouted softly: "Dear sir, why don't we let our guardians take you back!" Several figures in the crowd had already stood up, Nuan Xin Xin felt even worse in her heart and couldn't help but speak faster.

"No, thank you." Resa waved her hand, with no intention of stopping. A lovely and kind girl, but unfortunately, her fate is...
Chapter completed!
