In the swampy mud under the ruined bridge.

More than a dozen powered armors quickly interspersed in the river bed.

Relying on the cold nuclear power battery, the heat dissipation holes on the armor's feet have been opened to the maximum, and the heat is radiating out.

Rays of cold light danced in the air, causing waves of frightening screams.

A group of mutated monsters that were irradiated and originally lived in the water system.

They survive by hunting the creatures that pass by the shore and accidentally step into this area.

Now, the prey is delivered to your door.

But the caravan guard wearing a powered armor with a sharp knife about 1.5 meters long extending from his arm was not a target they could covet at all.

In less than five minutes, Darren and his men forcibly carved out a bloody road to the other side.

"Speed ​​up, we need to get to the other side before the radiation creatures from further away come over!"

There were blood stains on the ground.

The biological fragments scattered in the river bed were like a slaughterhouse, exuding a bloody smell.

Following the path opened by the guards, a group of scavengers covered their heads and hurried on.

Although we encountered several sudden dangers along the way, we finally successfully crossed the dangerous zone.

Arriving at the other side, Darren left two people behind to ensure safety at close range.

The remaining people roared out after him, scattering around like wild bees to clean up the surrounding threats.

"Pay attention to nearby dangers, quickly form a formation, and everyone should stop wandering around!"

This area, which can be called the outer edge of the Fifth Ring Road, obviously has many more big potholes on the road than in the western suburbs.

Because it had just rained, the lower half of the pit contained fishy stagnant water.

The wreckage of some vehicles that had not had time to drive away, eroded by time, were parked beside the large pit. Low trees full of strange fruits sprouted from the bottom of the pit, with branches emerging from the wreckage.

Similar to the isolated fifth-floor area in the territory, there are obviously more dangerous buildings above fifteen floors here.

Although it is not as good as the super-tall buildings in the center of the Fifth Ring Road that Darren warned about, it still does not lose half a point in terms of visual shock.

"Don't touch any plants you don't recognize, even a small piece of grass that looks harmless to humans and animals!"

Seeing a scavenger stupidly going to the green belt, one of Darren's previous guards quickly reminded him: "This is paralysis grass. Although its toxins will not put your life in danger, but

If his juice seeps into your skin, we will have to carry you back today."

The green grass looks as harmless to humans and animals as the clover that is planted in large quantities in cities to protect the environment.

In the pre-war era more than two hundred years ago, it once had a nice name, hollow grass.

Its interior can absorb various harmful substances scattered in the air, store them and digest them slowly to achieve the effect of protecting the environment.

Unfortunately, as the radiation intensifies, the genes of the hollow grass will inevitably mutate.

Its interior no longer stores harmful substances free in the air, but instead automatically produces a special liquid that protects itself.

Once an organism is infected, it will quickly enter a state of paralysis, similar to a high-dose anesthetic.

Of course, it would be better if you travel in a group.

But if a person is anesthetized by this thing inside the dangerous city ruins, even a passing radioactive creature will become a fatal threat.

"It can actually paralyze people for a whole day. Damn it, isn't this a natural anesthetic?"

"Don't mention it, the hospital in our village also announced the task of searching for raw materials for medicines, including natural paralytics."

"Can this paralyzing grass be regarded as a natural paralyzing substance? We haven't tested its specific efficacy?!"

"I don't know, but we can bring some back to try and see if it works. If it works, it will be a lot of money."

"You're right. There are paralysis grasses everywhere on the roadside. No one cares if you bring some."

Facts have proved that in the eyes of human beings, everything is marked with value.

As long as the value outweighs the risk, there will definitely be people who will take the risk and try it.

Seeing the scavengers lying on the grass with curious faces, pulling out a lot of paralysis grass through their clothes and putting them in cloth bags, the two guards opened their mouths, but in the end they did not choose to stop them.

Well, Darren had vaccinated everyone before he came.

This group of workers is different from the people we met before. They are not afraid of unfamiliar environments, but instead have extremely high, even terrifying enthusiasm.

As long as they are not bold enough to jump directly into the fire pit, especially obviously seeking death, the guards only need to watch quietly.

After collecting about half a kilogram of paralysis grass and putting it into bags, the scavenger team completed today's good start.

On the route progress bar on the game panel, this thing gives a lot of experience points, which is about the same as finding the gun yesterday.

But the slight difference is that the game is probably trying to prevent someone from cheating on points.

Each person can only gain experience for a single type of item once per day, and if you pick it later, you will be prompted to get it tomorrow.

"I've given you seven points of experience, which is pretty good. If you can come here and collect this thing every day from now on, you'll be one step closer to collecting the 1,000 needed to upgrade to the second level!"

Seven days, close to fifty points of experience, is not a small amount.

As expected, there are treasures everywhere in Qinggang City. It is simply a paradise for scavengers!

The old Taoist looked at the panel happily, and then glanced at the trees growing in the big pit.

But this time, before he could take action, guard Gaspar rushed up and stopped him.

"These are explosive fruits. If you think your body can withstand the explosion of 200gTnT, then you can go up and try to see if you can pull this thing off the branch."

200gTnT?

Isn't that almost equivalent to a tactical grenade?

Feng Long, who was watching the excitement from the side, was startled and quickly stopped everyone's rash ideas.

Qinggang City is indeed full of treasures, but on the other hand, dangers are also hidden in various seemingly inconspicuous corners.

If there were no Red Spider caravan guards to guide the way and explain, everyone might have accidentally arrived here by themselves.

If you are not careful, you will be in danger.

"Everyone, please be careful not to touch any plants. Our task today is to investigate the situation of those two hospitals. We can wait until we are familiar with the terrain before we collect anything."

"Okay~"

The male gunman nodded and immediately led others to the front of the team.

More than fifty people lined up in sharp arrow formation and headed east along the only remaining path on the road.

With the protection of the guards and Darren's sweep, it seems extremely safe here.

However, in a corner of a ruined building that no one noticed, a black probe the size of a baby's fist followed the team closely until the last person disappeared in the thick fog.

"The people who fought against Yehu a few days ago were actually people from the Foundation's caravan?"

Under the ground just after entering the Fourth Ring Road from the Fifth Ring Road, a man wearing light pajamas frowned and looked at the video screen.

A powered armor that rises from the ground and reaches high altitude, swooping down like a kite to kill radioactive creatures.

Wake up the predators from the gathering point, and use powerful force to force the power armor to temporarily leave the vicinity.

A powered suit with followers sneaking all the way to Triumph Hospital near a dozen humans.

The power armor in the picture is not difficult to identify, and the Foundation caravan logo on it is clearly visible.

The other party did not hide his identity, and the meaning revealed was somewhat intriguing.

"They should be looking for calm fans, but the strange thing is, why didn't he choose to trade with us?"

Next to the man in pajamas, a short man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks and eyes like a vulture asked doubtfully.

As a gopher man who is rooted in the Fourth Ring Road of Qinggang City, the distance between the Giant City Shelter and the Flat Shelter is very close, so it is not surprising that most of the details of the battle that night were obtained.

Everyone was still speculating on where the mysterious power armor that fought against Yehu came from.

Now it seems that it is actually the foundation's caravan.

The only difference is that in the past, when the Foundation's caravan arrived, they would go to the Clear Harbor Sanctuary, and then the Clear Harbor Sanctuary would convey their needs to all the gophers' sanctuaries and agree on a location for the transaction.

This time, not only did they not go to Qinggang, but they secretly led people around the city.

"Who knows, anyway, this group of people behaved quite arrogantly, and they clearly felt that there was no one in this city that could threaten them."

As the manager of the giant city shelter, Yerkes Aldrich shrugged indifferently, lifted his feet under the table and stretched them out on the table.

As the eighth-ranked shelter in Qinggang City, Giant City Shelter is not good at fighting.

Let alone more than a dozen powered armors dispatched at the same time, even if there were only one or two, they had no confidence in defeating the opponent.

In fact, the power armor is indeed considered the ceiling of individual combat in the entire Blue Star.

Human technology will not continue to grow explosively as time goes by.

The old capital left over from the pre-war era has been used up, and the talents trained by the big forces have not iterated enough innovation capabilities, and technology will slowly stagnate.

Over the past two hundred years, power armor has been updated with dozens of defense models for different purposes, but none has ever been so powerful that it can defeat other armors.
To be continued...
