Chapter 14 Exploring the Ruins (Part 1)

"Crack!" A tiny pine branch was shattered by a big foot wearing metal boots, and the green in the dark forest began to slowly spread from the canopy to the ground.

After accumulating the long vitality of a winter, the forest began to recover quickly, as if the bushes began to turn green overnight.

However, Chen Nuo and the others, who were in the forest, knew that all this did not appear overnight, but slowly grew day by day.

They have been walking along the railway for three days. If they had walked for one or two hours in the past, they would have basically not seen the house. But now they can indeed see the houses, but they are basically buried in the dense jungle, and such houses exuded strange aura.

At the same time, collapsed viaducts or broken auto parts will appear on both sides of the track from time to time. Under the cover of spreading weeds, all traces of once civilization are covered.

These things sleep in the ruins, and they are not disturbed even when the train passes by, until Chen Nuo and the others arrive. Generally, poor orphans who have nothing to do with the scale of justice are used as a place to collect garbage, and basically stuff everything into it.

Although most of the stuffed in are thrown out, only some of the metal will be recycled and exchanged for very little supplies, it is already good for the group who don’t even have a piece of bread.

At least in the past few days, Shen Rong calculated that the divine gold they retained increased by 0.001 units, which is much better than before, only going out but not entering. It is simply a gratifying congratulation.

As for why they changed from a state of escape to a scavenger, the reason is that there is no prey around, and the food taken from Lin'an Mansion has basically been eaten. After all, more than 100 people can eat dozens of kilograms of rice a day even if they only eat rice.

They escaped, not on an outing, and carrying food for a few days is already the limit. If the metal could not be exchanged for some supplies, Chen Nuo and the others would have to use the already scarce divine gold.

"By the way, where did this place come from before?" Chen Nuo pointed to the half-collapsed high-rise building in the distance and asked Shen Rong beside him. They were large cement boards pulled down from the ruins, and their purpose was to pull down the thick steel bars inside.

"I don't know! I can't tell whether this location is Yuxian or Cangxian, but there is probably a CBD there! Maybe there is a little good thing to find inside." Shen Rong looked at the huge building in the distance. In the stretch of forest, the building was almost completely covered with vegetation.

"c?cbd?" Chen Nuo didn't understand the meaning of this word.

"It's the commercial center! I've seen it in the school library that before the war began, there were many commodities in this place, including clothing and jewelry. However, some of them were looted by mobs after the disaster, but they just didn't know what was left in this building." Shen Rong knew very well why Chen Nuo didn't know the term for the commercial center, because he rarely went to the library to read those books.

However, this is normal at the time when civilization is broken, and some knowledge has actually become useless. After all, the current productiveness of goods is difficult to open even a small supermarket, and business centers are far-reaching terms for everyone.

"It's already so broken, probably nothing is there?" When Chen Nuo anxiously made everyone ready to explore this place, it was not that no one raised any objections.

"Yes! This place called c...c, what kind of cb is probably robbed at that time?" Fatty Li raised his hand and said.

"Not necessarily! Even if there is a little steel or something, it's good! The steel bars that can be removed in the house here have been demolished. Unless we dismantle the railway tracks, there will be nothing to change tomorrow." Luo Chong was talking about the reality that Chen Nuo and the others faced.

"Then go!" Chen Nuo wiped the sweat from his forehead. He had just pulled out a steel bar from the cement board. The hand that was supposed to hold the sword and chop the monster has now become a garbage guy who pulled the steel bar, but there was no way to survive.

"By the way! I'll bring the holy oil and the other side, and there's a full torch!" Chen Rong looked at the huge commercial center and thought about it and said.

"Will it be very dark inside?" Chen Nuo asked as Chen Rong said, of course he also frowned.

When they arrived at the edge of the commercial center, they were stunned for a while when they looked at the huge building. Because another building collapsed beside the commercial center, thick bones fell from the edge of the building, and occasionally a few stones fell from the wreckage of the building.

"Most of this was smashed!" Fatty Li looked at the lodged buildings and the broken buildings. He was very small in front of these buildings, but at least he was still standing while the huge building turned into garbage sank to the ground.

"Fatty! You and Yuanzi are guarding outside!" Chen Nuo said as he looked at the thick bones and the broken building, pressing Fatty Li who wanted to climb up the ruins and enter the commercial center.

"And Tang Sen, you are also staying outside for the time being and collect the steel that can be found on the ground!" Chen Nuo said to his younger brother and sister behind him. He thought this place was a bit weird, so it would be better not to let people without much combat effectiveness enter.

"Oh!" Fatty Li agreed without thinking too much, then watched Chen Nuo and the others carefully crawled up to the entrance of the ruins with torches.

Chen Nuo and the others did not bring holy oil, because the extraordinary power, that is, the Qi effect in the group, is not necessarily much worse than that in holy oil. If it is an ordinary strange creature, it is highly likely that Chen Nuo and the others can teach each other to be human with their fists.

Burning torches illuminate the dark ruins, and the collapsed building smashed the top of the commercial center. Fortunately, the commercial center below was built with good quality, so it was not completely crushed into a piece of waste brick.

However, this commercial center will definitely not be too solid, and it is a bit difficult for the group of people holding torches to climb in, but the space inside is still OK after entering completely. The crushed glass windows can occasionally penetrate some light, making it a little dim but not invisible, but it is only limited to places with glass windows.

The walkway without glass windows is basically pitch black, and even when the torch is lit, the light range is very small. Dripping water drips from above, and there is a large ball of black on the ground.

Chen Nuo was the first to enter, and as soon as he entered, he received a very enthusiastic greeting. A lonely shadow demon who had no idea where he ran out rushed towards him, and then Chen Nuo directly held it down and hammered it on the ground with his hand.

That's right! He directly wrapped his palms with Qi and grabbed the bodyless Shadow Demon. A sizzling sound kept coming from where both sides were in contact, and the Shadow Demon even roared in anger and horror.

"Is this the Shadow Demon?" Chen Rong and the others were a little stunned when they looked at the Shadow Demon who was grabbed by Chen Nuo and pressed on the ground, because the Shadow Demon looked too weak. Even if Qi had a negative effect on the Shadow Demon, it would not be pushed over in an instant.

"It should be! But it's a bit weak! Everyone should pay attention!" It was not a good sign to encounter the Shadow Demon just now, so Chen Nuo wanted to quit, but hesitated again when he saw the Shadow Demon disappearing in his palm.
