Chapter 754: Clues

Perhaps only the size of the mutated king squid can compete with this giant wild boar—but the king squid is originally a deep-sea creature, and before it mutates, it already belongs to that kind of monster. The results of the two different living environments.

In many cases, size does not represent strength... However, when the size is really large enough, even a harmless rabbit with a docile personality can easily cause extremely terrifying damage.

The tonnage of this wild boar has definitely reached more than five figures. Its running movement seems clumsy, but its speed is not slow at all. Every step will leave a deep pit-like hoofprint on the ground.

If it hit it head-on, Qi Lin estimated that the entire all-terrain off-road vehicle would be smashed to pieces!

"Tuigui...is really a 'big' guy..." Qi Lin couldn't help swallowing, "Have you...have you seen this thing before?"

"I've never seen it before..." Gao Hong's head shook like a rattle drum.

Not to mention Gao Hong, Qi Lin has never even heard of a wild boar that can grow to such a large size—whether it is in the real world or in the virtual game world.

"B-level... No... In terms of body shape alone, A-level shouldn't give in too much..." Qi Lin took a deep breath and said, "Let's wait for it to pass..."

Gao Hong nodded in agreement.

To provoke this kind of guy, it is no different from the mantis arm as a car, it is simply courting death.

The giant wild boar ran over two hundred meters away from the hiding place of the two of them. The dust raised by its running alone covered Qi Lin and Gao Hong in disgrace. dare not come out.

The shock gradually receded, and then Qi Lin and Gao Hong stood up from behind the boulder and slapped off the dust from their bodies.

"By the way, what is the scope of your hunting in general?" Qi Lin asked suddenly.

"Hunting range? I haven't paid attention to the details, but generally the time for a round trip will not exceed a day and night. This is still counting the time for setting traps and waiting for prey."

"Then it will be calculated on the basis of 15 hours of reentry, which should be about the same."

"Almost, the farthest place I have traveled is from morning to noon, almost seven hours."

"Stiff... Ah no, the walking speed of mutants is no different from that of ordinary people. Calculated at five kilometers per hour, that's less than forty kilometers away..."

Having said that, Qi Lin suddenly hesitated to speak, with a look of uneasiness on his face.

"What's the matter?" Gao Hong looked at Qi Lin's appearance, a little puzzled.

"This giant wild boar is something you have never seen before, that is to say, it is not a mutated creature living nearby."

"Yes, but so what?"

"If it wasn't for the mutated creatures living nearby, then this giant wild boar obviously didn't come for the territory of the piranha...I saw its movements as a little flustered...it seemed...to be fleeing..."

"...Escape?!" Gao Hong was a little shocked. Although he also felt that there was something wrong with this giant wild boar, but escape... What kind of existence would make a mutant creature of this level flee?

"You also said that this big wild boar has never been seen in the area around here, so further north... 80 kilometers... 100 kilometers... Or, a place of 150 kilometers !"

"You mean... the ruins of LS City?! You mean... this wild boar ran out of the ruins of LS City?!"

"Not necessarily..." Qi Lin shook his head slowly, "Even the ruins of the city may not be able to hide this guy who looks like a hill. Its shape is too obvious, and it can be seen at a distance of more than ten kilometers. See, at least as far as I have information, this big wild boar wasn't there a few months ago, or it wasn't that big then."

"That..." Gao Hong just spit out the word "that", and suddenly his eyes widened - the eye sockets of the living dead were cracked badly, and when he did this, the two cloudy eyeballs seemed to be going out of the eye sockets. Like falling out of the middle, it looks quite scary.

"Yes, you are right... Although I am not sure if this big wild boar ran out of the ruins of the city, but there must be something in that direction, it is that 'thing' that makes it panic I fled here, and according to my guess, the 'thing' that made this big wild boar afraid to be like this should be where I want to go now."

"Gudong——" Qi Lin wasn't sure if there was such a substance as saliva in the body of the living dead, but he clearly heard the sound of swallowing saliva from Gao Hong's throat.

After several seconds, the other party choked out a sentence in a somewhat difficult tone: "Then you...do you still want to go there?"

"Go." Qi Lin nodded without hesitation.

No matter what is there, Qi Lin must go.

We've come this far, and there's absolutely no reason to turn back.

"Isn't this going to die..." Gao Hong sighed, he has nothing to do with him, anyway, according to the original plan, he will be separated from Qi Lin one hundred kilometers ahead, and Qi Lin will go to the ruins of LS City alone. He intends to continue walking east.

Although Sichuan Province was one of the most populous provinces in China in the old days, the area where Gao Hong and the others were located also belonged to the kind of relatively backward and remote areas. Those densely populated cities were all in the east, and cities with more populations were often called The greater the chances of a nuke taking care of.

And what Gao Hong is looking for is the kind of radiation area that has been baptized by nuclear war-within a distance of tens of kilometers from the explosion point, the radiation concentration will remain at a relatively high level within ten years, which is completely An ideal living environment can be provided for him, and due to the existence of radiation, after the people in the shelter return to the ground, these radiation areas are often rarely set foot in, at least, before the radiation dissipates, most people will not settle down. Clicking on the radiation area or the edge of the radiation area provides a layer of protection in disguise for living dead like Gao Hong and the like.

In fact, when Qi Lin returned to the surface, why didn't he also want to find such a heavily radiated area to improve his strength... But the time is limited, and the task of finding clues to Cheng Yanqiu must be the top priority.

"It doesn't have to be death... Since the unknown existence can scare this big wild boar away, it can be seen that the strength should still be higher than this big wild boar, and these powerful existences often ignore us. 'Ant', if I don't take the initiative to disturb or get close to that existence, the other party shouldn't come out to trouble me..." Qi Lin said.

For example, for example, the mutant king squid that attacked the destroyer was lurking on the bottom of a shallow sea. At this time, the big wild boar swam through the sea (assuming that the big wild boar can swim), and the two sides would probably meet each other. There is a fierce battle, but if Qi Lin swims over the head of the king squid, it is very likely that nothing will happen.

One is that Qi Lin's size cannot make the king squid feel threatened, and the other is that Qi Lin's target value is too small, so small that it can be ignored.

Even if the King Squid discovers Qi Lin's existence, it may not take the initiative to attack—this amount of meat on human body is not enough for the King Squid to plug its teeth, and it is not even enough to replenish the energy consumed in the hunting process. Unless Qi Lin took the initiative to bump into the mouth of the king squid, it would definitely swallow Qi Lin without hesitation.

And this law is completely applicable to those wasteland overlords who dominate one side. There are mice and bugs in the territory of most high-level mutant creatures, and those high-level mutant creatures don't even bother to dig. Digging for insects to feed their hunger.

For an existence that can scare away big wild boars, Qi Lin is basically no different from bugs.

"Since you are so persistent, I won't say much, but I don't want to get close there." Gao Hong said.

"Yes." Qi Lin nodded, and took out an old map of Sichuan Province.

Although the scene on the wasteland is very different from before the war, one thing will not change, that is the location of the city - even if the nuclear bomb destroys the entire city, the location of the city ruins on the map There will be no slight changes. Some small villages and towns may be "evaporated" directly from the ground, but big cities are not so easy to be erased, unless they are directly landed like the Kowloon Peninsula.

"We are almost at this location now." Qi Lin pointed to the coordinates of Yuexi Town on the map. Although there is no trace of this town, the wide road to the northwest of the town has not been covered by yellow sand. Buried, the name of this highway is the G5 National Highway, also known as the Beijing-Kunming Expressway. It is one of the largest traffic arteries in Sichuan Province and an important landmark on the wasteland.

And walking one hundred and sixty kilometers northeast from Yuexi Town is the final destination of Qi Lin's trip - the ruins of LS City.

"Then let's separate at this location. This distance shouldn't be too dangerous." Qi Lin pointed to a place about 50 kilometers away from the ruins of LS City. "There are quite a few villages and towns nearby. If they haven't been completely destroyed, maybe you can still find some useful supplies."

"No, no, no, I think this point is safer." Gao Hong himself chose a point on the map. This point is farther away from the ruins of LS City, about 80 kilometers away, and it happens to be in the middle.

But the only flaw is that this is a forest area...Of course, this was a forest area in the old days, but now it is estimated that it should have become a desert under the influence of the wasteland environment. There is no residential area, which means There are no supplies left over from the old days.

"It's fine, anyway, this is your own decision... Well, I think that big wild boar should have run away, and we should move on..."

...

...

Thirty minutes after being separated from Gao Hong, the outline of the ruins of LS City finally appeared on the distant horizon. Qi Lin lightly stepped on the brakes and slowly slowed down the car.

Finding a shoal full of rocks, Qi Lin hid the all-terrain off-road vehicle, and then walked along the dry river bed towards the ruins of the city.

Before he had gone far, Qi Lin caught sight of a reflection of a metal object under a cobblestone from the corner of his eye. He immediately stepped forward, knelt down and lifted the cobblestone.

It is a shell casing. Judging from the diameter of the shell casing, it should be the ammunition used by a large-caliber assault rifle. In the old days, there were no fully automatic weapons of this caliber. Obviously, this thing came from one of the underground shelters. middle.

Qi Lin pinched the cartridge case with his index finger and thumb, and turned it over, and saw that the number on the bottom edge of the cartridge case was 023-695223. As a member of the organization and the Thunder Falcon team, Qi Lin was too familiar with this string of numbers. The six digits at the end are the production line code, while the 023 in front refers to Vault No. 23.

Vault No. 23 is one of more than a dozen super-large shelters controlled by the organization, and this Vault No. 23 is also the largest arms production base of the organization. All weapons and equipment produced in this arms production base , its label will have a "023" prefix.

Even the ammunition on Qi Lin's body has a production number starting with "023" on almost half of it.

Qi Lin recalled the materials he had read before he came out. According to the report of the surviving ghost face, Cheng Yanqiu's team had an accident when they were investigating the Leshan Giant Buddha. Descending from the cliff to the top of the river beach, fighting and retreating, and at this time, Ghost Face and Cheng Yanqiu, who were in charge of breaking the rear, separated.

Qi Lin raised his head and saw that the magnificent Buddha statue was at eleven o'clock, about ten kilometers away.

"From this point of view... this should be the battlefield where Cheng Yanqiu's team fought fiercely with the snake group, and this bullet casing is also left by them..."

The seriously injured ghost face sent a distress signal after fleeing to a small town more than 30 kilometers south of the river beach. In order to buy time for Cheng Yanqiu, he chose the opposite direction of retreat to Cheng Yanqiu and the others, and the recovery troops were about to After he was rescued, he went directly to the ruins of LS City. They had never been to this river beach.

Logically speaking, as a battlefield that has not been cleaned, it should be full of corpses and bullet casings, but Qi Lin found nothing except this bullet casing that was crushed under the cobblestone.

"This battlefield...has been cleaned by someone?"

Thinking of this, he vaguely felt that there seemed to be a chilly wind blowing behind him... Due to time constraints, the organized troops had never been to the river beach, so there was only one person who would clean up the battlefield...

Mastermind!
