'Xia Zuo', who was nervously walking to the open space in front of the lightning wall, finally breathed a sigh of relief with the rifle in his hand.

Among tens of thousands of wanderers, he is the more conspicuous one, with his distinctive black hair and oriental face.

But on the battlefield, he was just one of the inconspicuous victims.

After being dispatched from Sunny Harbor Shelter, he was unfortunately assigned to the western suburbs where he participated in the battle.

Although the opponent was not the Pingtan Sanctuary with terrifying combat power, nor was it the weakest Tianyuan Sanctuary.

But even this seemingly mediocre giant city shelter also erupted with fighting power that left the Rangers Defense Force unable to resist.

Six thousand people.

Thirty-five hundred people died, and more than 50% of the battle losses were suffered.

In fact, so many people should not have died, but a sudden counterattack by the opponent disrupted the rhythm of the defense team.

Everyone fled in all directions, which led to a significant increase in the number of casualties.

Even the captain and deputy captain who led their team "died gloriously" in the battle.

Xia Zuo thought he was lucky to be able to survive.

Not long after he entered the battlefield, he found that the gun in his hand had jammed.

The unlucky guy who couldn't shoot the bullet could only keep retreating, but unexpectedly he avoided the counterattack.

Now, I even survived and successfully returned to the Lightning Wall, and could breathe fresh air for another day.

"Captain Xia, are we going to report everything that happened in the battle truthfully?"

Following Xia Zuo were five or six injured homeless people.

Like him, everyone has an oriental appearance and had been ostracized in the team before.

Unexpectedly, they all survived now. It was really a fate.

Several people simply worked together and promoted Xia Zuo, who was completely uninjured, as the new captain, in an attempt to preserve the name of their team and prevent them from being dispersed and assigned to other teams.

"Of course, we must tell the extremely stupid weapons maintenance department that they actually sent us 'matchsticks' with rusty barrels and asked us to take them to the battlefield to fight the enemy."

"This is simply murder, yes, murder!"

"But when we were training before departure, the barrel of the gun was clearly in good condition, right?"

A team member warned in a weak voice: "Is it our own problem that caused the barrel to rust?"

"Our own problem?"

Xia Zuo laughed angrily: "Do you know how long it takes to make a stainless steel gun barrel rust to the point where it can no longer fire?"

"645 days, nearly three years!"

"How long did it take to get this gun into our hands?"

All the team members looked at each other and shook their heads like a rattle.

"That's right, we should throw the fire stick in their faces and tell them!"

"If you send garbage like this again, you might as well give us a machete. At least you won't be punished if you throw it away."

After receiving the inspection from the guards with his head held high, Xia Zuo turned around and led people directly to the weapons maintenance department.

Surprisingly, there were not many people going there, and it even became crowded along the way.

"See, these guys just want to murder us!"

As the number of people increased, the yelling and cursing became louder and louder.

After looking around for a while, Xia Zuo gradually felt relieved.

After this weapons maintenance accident occurred, we finally had a suitable excuse to prevaricate the defeat.

This is so timely.

Damn Arms Maintenance Department?

No. We should really thank them!

The next day.

On the second day of the New Year, the mist in the sky became thinner and thinner, and the visual distance skyrocketed again.

Take the sun in the sky as an example.

In the past, when there was thick fog, you could only vaguely see a ball of light floating above your head at noon.

It's early morning now, and the light group has already appeared, and a circular scattering outline can be roughly seen.

Level B2 of Tianyuan Dungeon, manager’s office.

Sumo, who was sitting at his desk, was dealing with the backlog of government affairs from yesterday, and Number Zero next to him gave reference data from time to time.

But it was obvious that his attention was not focused, and even the artificial intelligence couldn't help but care:

"Master, do you want to rest no longer?"

"Your current state is very similar to those residents who stay up late in the village. They always say that they need to replenish their oil. They also say that their diesel engines are out of oil and they need to find a man's gas station to restore it."

"Do you need No. 0 to call Village Chief Chen Shen to come and bring you some 'fuel'?"

"Um?"

Sumo came back to his senses. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at the small square on the table with both laughter and tears.

He was 100% sure that this guy definitely did it on purpose.

After recently letting go of his learning ability without any restrictions, although No. 0 has not actively expressed his progress, the data presented in the system panel cannot be faked.

His level of intelligence has reached a peak, and he needs to either be taken to a more complex and unfamiliar environment to continue training, or he can break through with better hardware and a suitable opportunity.

"I'm not tired, forget it, go away and play by yourself."

Looking at the surface of the small square, an emoticon of "Subway Old Man Mobile Phone" suddenly appeared, looking completely incomprehensible and arrogant.

Somo stood up and went to the first floor, threw the Zero toward the charging port on the ceiling, and walked out of the dungeon.

call.

Fresh and moist air enters the nasal cavity, circulates back and forth and is discharged with stale air.

In a dimension invisible to others, including the game, the system panel showing the update countdown time is slowly flashing.

There are only a few minutes left, and the V1.1 version is about to be officially launched.

As the first official version update, even though Sumo was extremely calm, he still had trouble sleeping all night last night.

[System update countdown:00:00:59]

[System update countdown:00:00:58]

[System update countdown:00:00:09]

In the last ten seconds, the black-gray panel has relit with a light blue light with a breathing effect.

Concentrating, Soma widened his eyes and waited for the end of time.

As the countdown passed by in a blink of an eye.

Wow.

A blue ripple flashed before my eyes, like an eggshell cracking, or like the creation of the world.

Sumo originally thought that this was only limited to a small range as usual, but this time it was obviously different.

The blue ripples penetrated the system panel and continued to extend to the periphery, covering the entire field of vision in the blink of an eye.

About three seconds later, the entire wasteland shook, as if a major earthquake had erupted.

"this"

He had never seen such an exaggerated scene before, and Sumo couldn't help but open his mouth.
Chapter completed!
