Chapter 113 Dryad Granny
Compared with other oases, Auto City and Scavenger City are very close to each other. The straight-line distance is only 200km. If the armored fighting vehicle sets off at full speed, it will only take an hour''s drive.
?Gao Gong used to fight monsters in the urban area, leaving early and coming back late. He worked as hard as an urban white-collar worker, but the radiation beast didn''t care about his job.
Now, the empty and desolate road has long been covered by dark light. From time to time in the darkness, heavy footsteps can be heard, or the low roar of wild beasts, one beast roars, and all beasts roar together.
“Honestly, Captain, I’m a little scared,” a newcomer wiped his sweat and looked at a group of crawlers passing by not far away, and whispered.
"What''s there to be afraid of!" Saber Tailm snorted, firmly fixing the mechanical legs of the large-scale pseudo-sensory device, and then connected the wires to connect this ''high-tech projector''-like thing to the electrical box of an abandoned gasoline station. among.
Most of the electrical boxes at petrol stations have been damaged, but these are the few that are intact.
One gasoline station and four sets of large-scale pseudo-sensory equipment can cover a radius of approximately 10km.
“Of course I’m afraid that they will take action.”
"Cowards, the boss has implanted desert skin on us, and the signals in the body cannot be transmitted at all. They will not be interested in us. Hurry up and do your work. We have to go to the next stop."
“But we are humans, are they really not interested in us?”
? ?The new guy is grumbling and working at the same time.
This kind of large-scale sensory equipment is generally used in nightclubs in entertainment cities. Once it is turned on, thousands of ''ladies'' will appear to accompany you to the disco. Touch, hearing, including the smell of women''s perfume and sweat, can all be simulated. Full.
? ?If you give enough money, ‘they’ can even take you to a virtual party—as long as your kidney function is good enough.
?The only shortcoming is that its visual simulation is not good enough, it can only simulate 50%. If it were not for the dark environment and violent music, it would be easily confused.
Of course, in order to prevent confusion, the nightclub owner will mix enough companion robots or android maids into it to make it look fake.
"The tribe I was in before, the elders had rules. In order to increase the number of babies in the tribe, we were not allowed to go to the entertainment city. I haven''t used it myself, but it was used by wild beasts. What a waste!" The newcomer shook his head and sighed.
“Aren’t they all cloned babies now? They are cultivated in factories until they reach adulthood, and then distributed to various oases. My oasis has 10,000 places this year,” said another mechanical hunter.
“If this continues, I think the native people will become extinct in our generation.”
"It doesn''t matter what you do, as long as you can support yourself."
“Yes, as long as you have enough mechanical coins, you can book a wife, of any age.”
“How much does it cost to book a wife?”
Just as the other person was about to brag about what he had seen and heard, Tamir swung his knife sharply, and the bright red blade made a sharp sound as the high-pressure spring squeezed it.
?At some point, a creeper appeared in the corner, staring coldly at a few people.
"grass!"
“Beast!”
“Watch its tongue!”
However, Tamir, who was the first to notice, waved his hand, retracted his arm knife, and continued to work with his head down.
The crawler also began to deform, shrinking in size, growing skin, and finally turned into an old man with a gloomy face.
“You are too vigilant. Sure enough, the quality drops when there are more people?” The Creeper mocked.
Others, you look at me and I look at you, their expressions are a little ashamed.
“Sword boy, come with me.”
?Tamel shook off the engine oil on his hand and said without raising his head: "I still have work to do."
“Just leave it to these newcomers. The boss has a new mission, which is about hunting B-level radioactive beasts.”
?Tamil''s eyes lit up, and he followed the creeper out in three steps and then two steps.
The remaining people looked at me and I looked at you, and then they continued to work.
Tamil and Creeper went out and got into a heavy armored vehicle driven by iron. The surface of this armored vehicle was covered with a camouflage net made of ''inferior desert skin''. The engine was also modified, and it drove very quietly. in the dark.
“Didn’t you agree to do it tomorrow?”
"The situation has changed a bit," the creeper turned on the on-board virtual projection and saw dense green dots on the map around the Auto City and the Scavenger City, covering 80% of the area.
“The installation of the sensory equipment went much smoother than expected. For some reason, those annoying mechanical birds didn’t show up tonight.”
“The boss means that since they don’t come, we will do some activities.”
"It should have been like this a long time ago!" Tamil hammered his hands, his eyes full of fire. He was not interested in gossip, enjoyment, or inheritance of the family line. The only reason why he became a mechanical hunter was that there were enough prey here to kill. .
Whether humans or animals, they can be prey.
His temperament is quite suitable for this profession.
The Creeper looked at Tamir who was eager to take action now, and warned: "Don''t underestimate the B-level radiation beasts. Their power is completely beyond our imagination. Even the boss may not be able to reach the B-level beasts under normal circumstances." high."
?Tamel glanced at the creeper and said disdainfully: "If that''s the case, why is there still this operation?"
“Because we are hunters and they are prey, we don’t need to surpass them in all aspects, we only need to surpass them in one aspect.”
“At this point, the old ones did just fine.”
??Although the creeper is not young anymore, even older than the youngest old hunters, he still calls them old things.
This is a very special compliment. On the way, Tiepi received a phone call. In this environment where electronic signals were seriously interfered with, even the phone call was informed by a third-party cyber hacker.
“Yeah? Yeah, I got it.”
?After Tiebi hung up the phone, he turned around and stepped on the accelerator to the limit. The camouflage hood made a sound, and the surrounding environment was spinning around like a horse.
Without waiting for the two to ask questions, Tiepi spoke directly.
“It’s too late. A Class B vomiting giant has been killed. Let’s change the scene now.”
“Killed!?” Both Creeper and Tailm were stunned.
?The Squirmer subconsciously looked out the window. In the darkness, there seemed to be a mountain of corpses standing at the end of his field of vision.
The giant vomiting thing, the radiation beast - the rot species, is known as the largest monster among B-level beasts. It can be imagined as a mountain of flesh with the height of a deformed giant.
Among the B-level radioactive beasts, it can be regarded as an existence that is hated by humans and dogs.
Each B-level beast has its own territory - except for the vomiting giant.
The reason why it does not have its own territory is because everything in its territory, whether it is mutated plants or low-level radiation beasts, will be quickly eaten by it, and its hungry instinct will drive it to go out for food.
In order to eat, it fought almost every B-level beast.
?Its methods are also lackluster. Apart from massive amounts of corrosive liquid, there is almost no second offensive method.
But it has almost never been defeated by beasts of the same level.
Without it, its instinct to devour everything gives it a terrifying amount of blood. In this regard, even the A-level radiation beast cannot compare to it.
In normal times, even A-level radiation beasts hate it. Once it appears in its own territory, it will not hesitate to use the power of "gene territory" to expel it.
But it has to be said that it is very useful in the beast tide. There is almost no targeted method for this kind of human shield with huge health volume.
Unless the security regiment no longer cares about the rising energy of the beast tide, they use the most powerful intercontinental missiles to blast.
“It’s really amazing, those old guys,” the Creeper exhaled and said.
As one of the few hunters with the ability to transform into creatures, he was invited to practice with this group of veteran hunters, so he was very aware of their strange and dangerous abilities.
In a sense, they can even be said to be normal people who possess some of the abilities of B-level radiation beasts.
“It’s time to go to the battlefield!”
?From a distance, you can see grotesque electronic buildings rising from the ground, with countless mechanical beasts running around among them.
The way to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy is very simple, that is, a special version of the "neural frequency amplifier" is hung on the ear of one''s own mechanical beast.
?This kind of equipment allows them to avoid being interfered by the "magic-opening artifact" and directly receive the driver''s orders.
Whenever a chaotic herd reaches a place outside the ''Electronic City'', they will block them back.
B-level radiation beasts can already use part of the power of the beast tide.
This means that in order to deal with them, you must first break through the boundless wave of beasts.
In the original ‘Operation Broken Arm’, we were able to deploy half of our troops, and even the mechanical defense line was almost breached.
But the ‘simulation device’ + ‘monster attracting artifact’ can trap the beasts in the maze.
?Of course, the biggest contributor to this is senior engineers.
?Although he has taken the path of ''carbon-based'' + ''mechanical'', in most cases, the knowledge and technology from his previous life cannot be used.
??But the creation of this kind of "virtual reality", even if it is limited to simple equipment and technology, senior engineers can still use the vision of the previous life to show off their skills.
To create a virtual environment with a range of more than 200km, in terms of drawing levels, this ‘large-scale virtual empathy drawing’ must be at least level five.
“Sit tight, I’m going to start racing.”
?Tiepi screamed excitedly and pressed a button on the armored vehicle.
“Look at my new custom-made liquid nitrogen injector!”
?The next moment, Tamir and the Creeper jerked back. It felt like sitting on a rocket launcher.
?After a furious advance, during which they knocked over two digits of beasts, the two finally reached the center of the battlefield.
?Contrary to their expectations, the person who took action was not the boss, but his strange army of bio-modifiers.
The unit that has proven to be a failure.
Their opponent is a tree root that can crack the ground and sprout countless tentacles.
Like the metal nest, this tree root monster is a ''nest type boss''. Its attack method is very strange. At the end of each tree root, there is a radiation beast or mechanical beast, and some are even mechanical hunters. These people Beasts live in a way that is neither human nor ghost.
At first glance, it looks like "a hundred ghosts walking at night".
In short, it’s quite a scene with Dryad Granny.
