Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 209 The Edge of the Battlefield
The worm master had left, but Qi Lin couldn't guarantee whether this guy would bring his worm swarm to fight back after he let down his vigilance.

After hastily destroying the food, this place obviously cannot stay overnight. After putting out the bonfire with both feet, Qi Lin tidied up his equipment, put his backpack back on his shoulders, and prepared to drive overnight.

Qi Lin first walked to the previous hill. The insect master and his "pets" had disappeared, leaving only a dense pile of holes dug out by insects on the hill.

The entire hill was almost hollowed out. If Qi Lin had stayed on it for a while longer, the bug master might have directly driven the bug swarm to attack him.

I don't know what kind of adventure this guy has. A special third-level evolutionary like an insect master has real combat power enough to be worth a small army... If he can capture one or two D-level mutant insects If so, it will be even more difficult to deal with.

"What a troublesome enemy..." Qi Lin frowned and sighed as he smashed the hollowed out ground with the handle of his gun.

Although the insect master kept saying that he hoped not to meet him again, as long as he had a chance, he probably wanted to kill him.

Qi Lin looked around on the top of the mountain, and after confirming the direction of Thunder City, he trotted with a SCAR rifle in his hand.

The night on the wasteland is very cold. According to the thermometer on the brain, the surface temperature is now minus three degrees Celsius. Only by running can the chill that penetrates the bone marrow be dispelled.

There are still about ten kilometers away from the southern suburbs of Thunder City, and what awaits Qi Lin after the ten kilometers will be the most dangerous and difficult part of this operation - close to the original player and mutant On the edge of the biological frontal battlefield, he had to avoid the eyes of the King Blood Dragon Lizard in the sky, and sneak into Thunder City from under the noses of thousands of mutated creatures.

……

Under the coercion and control of the king blood dragon lizard whose IQ suddenly increased, the originally chaotic beast horde has been transformed into a terrifying and powerful army.

The main force of this "army" is deployed in the blank area south of Thunder City, facing the players in Thunder City across the rift. The old abandoned urban area on the north side of the city seeped in.

As for the food of so many mutated creatures, according to Song Xiaodie, the King Blood Dragon Lizard will drive a batch of mutated creatures from other places every day as food for the "big army", and the weaker ones in the whole "army" The mutated creatures will also be eaten by stronger individuals—so, although the number of mutated creatures has decreased by nearly one-third compared to when the beast horde first broke out, the overall strength has not decreased significantly. Even, after streamlining the "team structure", the combat power of those advanced mutant creatures was even stronger.

It is not that Thunder City has not organized a counterattack. Just in the middle of the night a few days ago, the players in the city managed to organize a group of elite fighters. The mutated creatures launched a "clearance operation".

Unfortunately, as soon as the player set foot on the ground at the other end of the abyssal rift, he was besieged by mutated creatures that had been prepared for a long time. He couldn't even advance the distance of 20 meters, and all of them hung on the edge of the abyssal rift .

In order to prevent the mutated creatures from invading Thunder City, the temporary pontoon bridge on the Rift Valley was also blown up. None of the players who participated in the suppression operation managed to escape back.

Besieged by such mutated creatures, the situation in Thunder City is getting worse day by day. The prices of food, drinking water, medicine and ammunition are rising. Many players who cannot maintain their lives in the city even commit suicide and resurrect to leave this city. A city isolated from the outside world.

As one of the talkers of the Consortium Alliance, the Consortium Alliance will naturally not watch Thunder City be trapped to death, but several successive battles against mutant creatures have failed—the King Blood Dragon Lizard seems to have mastered the players. Every time the consortium's private army has just assembled outside, it will fly over, and it will fly down with a dragon's breath, leaving nothing behind.

As for the heavy weapons that can deal with the King Blood Dragon Lizard, with the player's abilities at this stage, they are either unusable or uncarryable.

This situation is also one of the prerequisites for Qi Lin to think that he can trade with Thunder. As a businessman, it is impossible for Lei Ting to not know the value represented by the city of steel.

This move is very dangerous. If one is not careful, the entire city of steel, including Qi Lin and the others, may be swallowed by a monster like Thunder, but if the bait is not attractive enough, what about these big bosses? Will it be easy to take the bait?

Qi Lin is gambling, and the reliance he relies on is very unreliable to be honest.But Qi Lin still clearly remembers that when he asked for the position of "Thunder City Lord" as a joke, Bryce said: as long as he is willing to join that "organization", the position of City Lord can be given to him. he.

Bryce's tone was not joking.

And the energy of that mysterious "organization" is probably still higher than that of the consortium alliance.

Although Qi Lin is not interested in joining the "organization", it can be seen from this point that what Thunder wants is definitely not just money.

This provides a possibility for the cooperation between the two parties, and at the other end of the balance, Qi Lin is not alone. Ling Kui, Fog Eye, Iron Cross, Song Xiaodie... and even Base 404 are all controlled by him. As a bargaining chip in hand.

In the old days, there was a very popular card game called "Happy Landlords", which was divided into several fields. To play against the richest players at the high-end tables, you must have enough virtual game coins in your hand.

This is the rule of the game.

In addition, although Qi Lin does not want to join that "organization", it is absolutely impossible to say that he is not curious about the true face of that "organization"... What kind of existence does Bryce tell? What about the words "Join the organization, and I will give you Thunder City"?
But... the most critical question right now is - how can he safely enter Thunder City without disturbing the mutant creatures.

At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, Qi Lin is squatting on the roof of an old cafe. Looking in the direction he is facing, the front is the blank area south of Thunder City and the two buildings that have been destroyed by the beast tide. The ruins of the battle fort.

Countless mutated creatures gathered in twos and threes in the open space, either eating or resting. There were also a few aggressive mutated creatures fighting with each other... In the high sky, accompanied by the sound of huge wings flapping the air, Wang The black figure of the blood dragon lizard was hovering above the blank area, did it let out a roar that resounded throughout the world.

And whenever the King Blood Dragon Lizard roared, no matter what the mutated creatures on the ground were doing, their movements would freeze for a while.

According to the information collected by the players, this is a passive skill of the King Blood Dragon Lizard called [Dragon Power]. It has absolute suppression and control over low-level mutant creatures. The description of the characteristics of giant dragons in fantasy novels coincides with each other.

Qi Lin observed for a while, not all mutant creatures stayed in place, and there were also many mutant creatures with strong perception ability acting as "patrol soldiers" on the periphery. Not far from Qi Lin, three "thorns" The "patrol team" composed of "hair wolves" is climbing over a metal guardrail with their tails between their legs, and patrolling along an old-fashioned road.
