Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

This team carrying out a mission outside consists of about fifteen or sixteen people, all wearing the black uniforms of the base guards. They are holding rifles and submachine guns and are fighting fiercely with the mutants outside the base.

However, these mutants are slightly different from those seen before. Their bodies are larger and more muscular than before, and they are even more agile. They are also extremely powerful and can easily tear a human body in half with one claw.

The crystal core powder brought from the base didn't seem to have much effect on them. It could only slow down their movements slightly, but in less than ten minutes these mutants would be completely restored to their original state.

It seems that they have encountered a special mutant of evolution.

So far, three team members have died tragically at the claws of the mutants, and their broken bodies are scattered at the feet of other team members, but they still have to continue the mission, so they can only endure the psychological and physical discomfort and fight with tense nerves.

Because everyone knows very well that they cannot relax at this time, because there are family members waiting for them to return home in the base, and they must not die in the mouths of these monsters today!

But these mutants are too difficult to deal with. Not only are they too fast but they are also cunning and seem to have become intelligent. Their behavior patterns can even imitate humans, which makes the members of the guard team feel creepy. If they were just facing a group of monsters without the ability to think, it would be easy to deal with them. However, these mutants in front of them seem to be able to predict their next actions. Every time they use fire suppression, they are easily avoided by the opponent.

Only a few screams were heard, and two more team members had their limbs pulled out by the mutants and died.

The team leader gritted his teeth and shouted with red eyes: "Everyone retreat to the north!"

A team member nearby turned his head in horror and said, "Captain, the north is a restricted area!"

The so-called restricted area is the most mysterious and dangerous death zone on the blue planet, which was inferred by professionals from the post-apocalyptic base research institute after investigation. Not only humans cannot enter there, even mutant animals and mutants cannot enter easily. There seems to be something terrifying there, and several teams sent by the base have never returned.

That’s why the team members were shocked by the captain’s order.

The captain spoke in a hoarse voice: "This is the place where we can find a way to survive. If we fight hard, we may still have a chance of survival. If we continue to waste time with these beasts, we will all die here!"

When the remaining team members heard this, they felt a chill in their hearts. If they were not forced into no other choice, who would be willing to step into the restricted area? That was a place that even the first guard team in the base did not dare to set foot in easily.

The captain pulled out a smoke bomb and threw it forward. While the smell of the smoke prevented the mutants from escaping, several people quickly ran to the north.

This place is about two kilometers away from the restricted area. Originally, they were carrying out a mission ten kilometers away from the restricted area. Who would have thought that they would be chased by these special mutants all the way to the vicinity.

The closer you get to the restricted area, you will notice that the vegetation here is significantly different from that near the base.

At least ordinary Xanthium sibiricum cannot grow to two meters high. The most common willow tree can be more than two meters thick, and the rhizome can reach half a meter thick. The vertically falling willow catkins are slowly moving on the ground.

Plants did mutate after the apocalypse. After the earthquake, many unknown plants appeared on the blue planet, especially blood vines that could suck human blood and tulips that had evolved into sharp teeth. Some poisonous plants before the apocalypse could even release large areas of poisonous fog.

As for the occurrence of plant mutations, the Kyoto base research institute is still conducting research and continuously collecting samples for research, hoping to understand the difference between plant mutations and animal mutations.

The team ran all the way, and after passing through an unusually tall bush, they vaguely saw an entrance covered by vegetation in front of them.

They have reached the entrance to the restricted area.

The mutants following closely behind them made a hissing sound. The air flowing in this place was also different from other places. The air was even covered with a thick earthy smell.

Those mutants seemed to be a little afraid and stopped a few meters away from the team, staring at each other with bared teeth. Their bloodthirsty desire made them continue to want to kill the humans in front of them, but the air in front of them made them feel instinctively afraid.

But in the end, the fear was overshadowed by the bloodthirsty nature. One of the special mutants raised its head and screamed fiercely, then rushed towards the guard team.

"Keep retreating!" the team leader shouted.

So everyone had no time to care about anything else and could only bite the bullet and step into the restricted area.

Perhaps because the first mutant beast launched an attack, the other mutant beasts that were originally hesitant also let out shrill cries and flew towards the restricted area one by one.

When they first entered the restricted area, the members of the guard team felt a bone-chilling chill. This chill was different from the chill of ice and snow, but it was an instinctive fear of the unknown environment.

The environment here is like two different worlds from the outside. The lush vegetation and strangely twisted branches continue to grow upwards, as if they are about to break through the sky.

The leaves, which were larger than humans, blocked the sunlight above their heads, and scattered spots of light under their feet. Their feet were stepping on fallen leaves that they had never seen before the end of the world, making a rustling sound.

The strange thing is that in the restricted area, apart from the sound of leaves rubbing against each other in the wind, no insects or birds can be heard, and no animals can be seen.

It seems that these strange plants are the only ones that can survive in the restricted area.

Suddenly, a shrill scream sounded behind them. The guards turned around and saw several mutants being rolled up by thick vines that appeared from nowhere, while another mutant was clinging to a thick tree trunk. A distorted face suddenly appeared behind the trunk. In just a moment, the mutant's trunk quickly shriveled up.

The mutant that was wrapped up in the vines made a "crackling" sound of broken bones, and its head immediately drooped limply.

"Ah, captain, save me!"

Just as the other team members were horrified by what they saw, someone suddenly shouted in fear.

One team member was rolled up high by the vines, and everyone immediately scattered in panic. Those who came to their senses kept shooting at the vines in front of them, but the vines not only dodged, but would even instantly sink into the soil.

The team leader gritted his teeth and looked down at the last grenade left on his waist. While he was hesitating, another team member was strangled by the ankle by vines that suddenly emerged from the soil and was quickly dragged back.

There was a hail of bullets in the forest, but everyone knew that they only had a few bullets left and would not be able to hold out for long.

I didn't expect that even if they didn't die in the mouths of mutants today, they would be buried in this damn place!

Just when everyone was in despair, they suddenly saw a flash of white light before their eyes, as if a tall black shadow descended from the sky and had a flash of white light in his hand.

"Pfft"

A half-meter-thick vine broke off and fell at the feet of a team member.

Red juice flowed out from the place where the vines were cut, and it was accompanied by a strong smell of blood, which scared the team member so much that he quickly took a few steps back.

When everyone gradually saw clearly that it was actually a person passing by, they couldn't help but be shocked. Although they couldn't see his face clearly, his body was extremely agile, and his killing movements were fierce and decisive. The Tang sword in his hand could easily cut off the vines wherever it touched.

He even cut off the neck of a mutant who had escaped in the chaos with one stroke.

Liu Hun, who was standing on one of the trees, said with a "tsk tsk" sound: "Hey, in the entire guard team, except for our boss, no one can chop off the head of this thing with one knife, right?"

Even for an elite squad in the guard team, it would take at least two people to kill this special mutant alone, let alone kill it with just a single cut as easy as cutting tofu.

The tall guy with his arms folded across his chest grinned, but there was no smile in his eyes. Before he was "recruited", he always thought he was the best in the world, but he didn't expect to be defeated by the captain with just one move.

The "Hunter" is very clear about the captain's strength. He is a perverted existence that is even more terrifying than mutants.

In less than five minutes, the ground was covered with limbs of special mutants mixed with mutant plants.

The man standing in the middle lowered his eyes slightly, his eyes were dark and unclear, and he said in a calm voice: "Fang Tang, escort them out."

Fang Tang nodded immediately: "Yes, Captain."

At this moment, a slight sound of breaking air was heard in the air, and Ye Ziqiu on another tree suddenly frowned and shouted, "Captain, be careful", and at the same time pulled out the pistol from his waist.

Before everyone could react, they saw a vine that was thicker than the previous one suddenly emerge from midair, wrapping around them like a nimble snake and heading straight for the man's face.

Killing intent suddenly rose in the man's eyes, and something was flowing faintly in his dark pupils. His body was as still as a mountain, but the Tang sword in his hand flashed with a cold white light. He blocked the whip of the vines with all his strength. Not only that, some abnormal airflow that suddenly appeared on his body caused the space to distort for a moment.

The vines suddenly grew larger due to the strange force. After a loud "boom", the originally rampant vines had grown into more than a dozen sections.

Liu Hun had watched his captain's incredible performances many times, but he was shocked every time he watched it.

So he smiled bitterly and said to his teammates: "Even the Light Chaser Shen Lian's people can't do this, right?"

Several people remained silent, probably having the same thought in their minds.

This kind of vine can be dealt with just like cutting vegetables. If there really is a second person, then... then he is the most perverted of perverts!

Empty City Ruins

Gu Tongwan squinted his eyes and watched the blood vines overflowing from the back of his left hand. In just a short moment, he sucked the blood out of a mutant vine several dozen meters long in front of him and made it shriveled.

She still held a Tang sword in her right hand, which had several cuts on it. Beside her was another shattered mutant vine.

He nonchalantly wiped off the juice that had just splashed on his face, raised his head and squinted his eyes to see an aurora suddenly appearing in the sky not far away.
