The drifting city of the last days

The two tossed about in the bathroom for nearly an hour before they managed to vent the evil fire in their bodies.It was almost two o'clock in the morning when Shao Yunfan crawled back into bed.

Getting into the quilt that had been getting cold for a long time, and lying down facing the wall, Shao Yunfan silently pulled the quilt to the top of his head and covered himself completely, it was nothing, just helping each other to shoot a pistol?What's more, Luo Zhen's technique is better than his own, and he is the one who suffers!Shao Yunfan hid in the quilt and tried hard to brainwash himself.

Luo Zhen couldn't help laughing at the person who was wrapped up like a silkworm baby on the opposite bed, and fell asleep happily.

In the morning of the next day, everyone drove forward with bumps and bumps, and finally arrived at the Jinghua base near eleven o'clock.They parked the car on the side of the road and got out of the car with all their luggage.

The walls of the Jinghua base are seven or eight meters high. The black brick and white gray walls are covered with concave crenels. There is a gun muzzle for every ten steps, and a cannon is placed at intervals between the five guns.The gate of the base is very similar to the ancient city gate of City B. It is in the shape of a vault, majestic and majestic, and has the dominance of the largest base.There are two iron gates with black lacquered iron rings inside and outside the gate, which look extremely solid. There are two tall lookout posts on both sides of the gate tower, and the dark muzzles of two heavy machine guns protrude nearly halfway.Along the wall is a deep ditch with a width of more than five meters and a depth of nearly ten meters. A thick wooden suspension bridge spans the deep ditch to connect to the outside world.The bottom of the ditch is densely covered with spikes more than one meter long, which is probably due to insufficient supplies. The spikes are made of various materials, such as wood, bamboo, and iron, and some of them have solidified dark brown on them. of blood.

Is this an improved version of the moat?Shao Yunfan thought of the river outside the ancient city wall of City B.When they were young, Luo Zhen's mother told them many stories about the past of City B, and the moat was also a character that was often mentioned.

Luo Zhen looked at the base in front of him. In terms of weapons and equipment, the Jinghua base has far surpassed the Donghua base, which seems to be rich and powerful.

According to Lin Lie, there are three gates in Jinghua base, the east gate is the largest and the closest to the coastline, less than two kilometers away.There is a small gate on the west and north respectively, which are controlled by the military and the No. [-] team of the base respectively.The rest cannot enter or exit without the appropriate permits.

In the scorching sun, a barricade made of logs and twisted wires was erected five meters away from the entrance of the suspension bridge, leaving only one-meter-wide entrances and exits on the left and right sides.Before the entrance and exit, there is a queue of about ten people, full of travel and dust, and it seems that they have come here to seek fame.Two groups of people with red armbands sat behind the table, holding a funny red umbrella with the words xxx iced tea on their heads, apparently in charge of reviewing.

"Uncle, please, let us go in. Please." A ragged child knelt in the middle of the gravel-strewn ground, "Bang bang bang!" kowtowing to the person behind the review desk on the right.Not far behind him, there is a metal tricycle with a back bucket that can only accommodate one person. A person is curled up in it under a quilt, and it is not known whether he is asleep or sick.Some of the people queuing up were numb and silent, while others couldn't bear to turn their heads away.

The child's forehead was red and swollen, and a middle-aged woman sitting behind the table waved her hand, half persuading and half hurriedly saying, "Stop knocking, it's useless, you'd better leave quickly."

"Is there any condition to enter the base?" Qi Liang turned to look at Lin Lie.

"Mutants are naturally welcome. You can get in after registering with a badge, and then you need to go to the ability testing area next to the city gate to confirm. After entering the city, you can pick a pleasing mutant team to join." Lin Lie pulled out a silver metal piece from his neck. There was an Arabic numeral "10" in the middle of the geometric pattern on the front of the metal piece. "Then you can get an identity card like this."

"What about ordinary people?"

"For ordinary people..." Lin Lie pursed his lips, "Ordinary people need to pay ten days of food rations as an entry fee, and if they are technical talents needed by the base, it can be relaxed to five days."

"Can't you hand it over?" Wu Fei frowned and looked at the child who was still kowtowing, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"If you can't hand it over, you can only stay outside." Lin Lie spread his hands helplessly.

It seems that the Donghua base is better, although you may have to sleep in the open air for a while, you can still live inside the wall.Shao Yunfan sighed, and began to rummage through his backpack, intending to take out all the rations.

At this moment, only the roar of the engine was heard, and a jeep with green camouflage was driving fast from the north from far to near, with yellowish smoke rising from under the tires, and a huge "2" was painted on the body with white paint. Character.

"Get out of the way, those in front! I'm not responsible for hitting you!" A big shirtless man stood in the car and yelled at the people queuing up on the right. He was carrying a bazooka-like thick barrel behind him, and had two rows of magazines crossed on his body.

"The cars of the No. 2 team, move away quickly." The security personnel on both sides of the isolation zone immediately moved away from the roadblocks. Seeing their panicked expressions, it was obvious that they were also very afraid of these people.

No. 2 team?Does it refer to the No. 2 team of mutants?Luo Zhen frowned slightly.

The people who were queuing up on the right dispersed in a rush, and even the review team moved the tables inward for fear of blocking the way.The boy who kowtowed raised his head and saw the jeep rushing towards him like lightning, so he also panicked and wanted to get up to avoid it.It's a pity that he knelt on the gravel road for too long, his legs were numb, and he fell down again after taking half a step, lying in the middle of the road.

The driver of the jeep flicked the cigarette out of the window, stepped on the accelerator hard, and the off-road jeep suddenly accelerated, roaring and rushing towards the boy lying on the ground.

Luo Zhen hurried over, grabbed the boy by the waistband and led him away.Xia An ran towards the shabby iron tricycle and took the people on it to mid-air.The off-road jeep roared, brushed the boy's toes and drove past, knocking the tricycle into the air with a "bang". The "Kara" tricycle fell to the ground a few meters away and was deformed.The big man sitting in the back seat turned his head around, and viciously gestured his middle finger in the direction of Xia An and Luo Zhen.In a blink of an eye, the jeep drove onto the wooden suspension bridge and entered the gate of the base.

The person in the car was an unconscious woman in her 30s, her cheeks were flushed as if she had a fever. Xia An put her back on the ground and retracted her wings.The people queuing up on both sides and the base inspection team all stared at Luo Zhen and the others, their eyes couldn't stop being shocked.The members on the Haihou all surrounded them.

"Oops, you may have offended them." Lin Lie squeezed his fingers nervously and looked at Luo Zhen.

"I've offended you a long time ago, haven't you?" Luo Zhen raised his eyebrows calmly, with a swarm of snakes and rats, and his arrogance was exactly the same as that of the people on that boat back then.

Shao Yunfan scratched the back of his neck, is it because he has a lot of debts?

Lin Lie: ……………

The child's entire face was ashen, he was still in shock, his forehead was red and swollen, and he was about eleven or twelve years old.After he regained his senses, he rushed towards Xia An in a panic, "Mom." Seeing that the woman was unscathed, he pursed his lips and blushed his eyes, and walked up to Luo Zhen, ready to kneel down to kowtow to him and Xia An. Luo Zhen grabbed it.

Luo Zhen rubbed the child's hair, "A man has gold under his knees." A man must always maintain a trace of pride in order to face any difficulties.At a similar age, he also desperately wanted to stand in front of his mother to support him, but unfortunately he was alone and lonely, with weak shoulders, unable to do what he wanted.From then on, no matter what kind of situation he encountered, he never lowered his head, because he always remembered that he was the only man in his family.The child seemed to understand but half understood, blinking his bright black eyes and trying to look up at him,

"Let's see how much rations we have left." Qi Liang looked at the expressions of Luo Zhen, Wu Fei and Shao Yunfan, and knew what they were going to do next.They can't help everyone, at least for the mother and child in front of them, they can't just ignore death.

Because they could hunt, they didn't bring much food, and the nine of them barely had enough food for ten days.Still less than half.

"Can mutated animals be used as rations?" Wu looked at Lin Lie.If you can, it's a big deal to spend some time looking around.

Lin Lie nodded.

"I can borrow you." A lazy strange voice interrupted suddenly.Everyone turned around, and at some point, a young man who was about the same age as Wu Fei appeared on the roof of their car without a sound.He sat cross-legged on the roof of the car, resting his chin on his left hand, as if he had been watching for a long time.The hair dyed reddish brown is slightly curly, tied into a ponytail dangling behind the head, and there is a silver-blue machete with a knife strap at the foot.

when did he comeLuo Zhen's pupils moved slightly. If this person had attacked them just now, he would have succeeded in all likelihood.This boy must be a supernatural being.

Shao Yunfan beat himself on the head with self-blame, he was unqualified as a watchman, and he didn't remember to observe the movement around him all the time.

Luo Zhen pulled his wrist off, it was not Xiaobu's fault.All of them are careless.

"I can lend you the rations for ten days." Seeing that no one spoke, the young man stretched himself, grabbed the knife and jumped off the roof of the car, repeating his words. The knife ring made a ringing sound with his movements.He was wearing a pair of ripped blue jeans and a fiery red jacket. His whole body was clean and fresh, and he clearly belonged to the type of person who still lives well.

"What's the price?" Qi Liang looked at the boy who was about the same height as him.

"Hmm..." The young man's brows frowned into Sichuan characters, his almond-shaped eyes looked up at the sky, then he waved his hands and said casually, "Double it, before the base closes tomorrow, in the ability testing area at the gate, You have to pay me back my 20 days’ rations.”

Usury is not so ruthless!Wu Shi glanced at the boy dissatisfied.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, today is Tuesday the 14th, the day of the guard reorganization, and the city gate will be closed at 01:30 pm. Although this place is very close to the sea, it is almost impossible to rent a boat to go out to sea at this time. Go hunt land animals In other words, the one-way drive to the nearest hunting area here will take more than three hours." The young man looked at Qi Liang confidently, implying that when they came back, the time would have passed long ago, and they could only spend the night outside.

Qi Liang turned to Lin Lie for confirmation, Lin Lie nodded.

"Deal." Luo Zhen walked to Qi Liang and said to the boy.

"Does it count?" The boy crossed his arms and looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"Don't worry, I can pay you back the 20 days' rations by myself." Luo Zhen said calmly.

"Okay, just now I saw that your skills should be pretty good, so I'll trust you just once." The young man casually took out one large and one small two thin iron coins from his pocket and handed them to Luo Zhen.

Luo Zhen frowned and looked at the two rough round iron coins in his hand, the smaller one had 10 printed on it, and the larger one had 50 printed on it.On the back of the iron coin are the words "Jinghua Base".

"My name is Li Ji. Remember to pay me back 120 yuan tomorrow." The boy carried the machete that was nearly two-thirds of his height on his shoulder and walked away.

"What's the use of just saying your name, who knows where you are from?" Wu Fei scratched the back of his neck, this person was very strange, as if just saying his name should make others know who he is.Although he walked over, the inspection team and guards on both sides all looked respectful.

Lin Lie's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Li Ji's back in astonishment.

"Why, is he really famous?" Wu Fei turned his head and looked at Lin Lie who seemed to have been struck by lightning.

Lin Lie was stunned for a few seconds before he nodded vigorously, "Li Ji, one of the Four King Kongs of Team No. [-], ranks only under the captain. Among the mutants in the entire Jinghua Base, he can definitely rank among the top [-]. name."

"Don't worry about that, anyway, the debt is owed, hurry up and go in." Shao Yunfan said anxiously.Wu Fei and Shao Yunfan accompanied the child to the end of the queue.Qi Liang and Lan Shan seized the time to treat the fainted woman.Qi Liang's healing ability doesn't work for ordinary people, so Lan Shan had to find antipyretics in the medicine box and feed the woman down.

After handing over the rations for the mother and child, they realized that one energy coin can buy one day's rations in the base.What Li Ji gave them was 60 yuan!

"If that child lived before the end of the world, he might be a business genius." Wu Shi shook his head, and they were "robbed" in a grandiose way.

When passing through the ability testing area, Luo Zhen was still a little worried. If Shao Yunfan's special identity was tested, they would definitely attract attention, and it would be difficult to keep a low profile.

Fortunately, the ability testing area at the entrance of the Jinghua base is only a rough test, to avoid people lying about mutants mixing into the base for free, and it cannot detect Shao Yunfan's identity as a person with special abilities.Of course, in the eyes of the people at the Jinghua base, there are often people pretending to be people with special abilities, but they obviously don't admit it, it's impossible.

You must know that people with special abilities enjoy the highest level of treatment in the base. Currently, there are only two of them, all of whom are strictly protected by the military. This is also their most powerful bargaining chip to check and balance the mutant organization and achieve mutual benefit between the two parties. .
