Chapter 186

The woman looked Zhou Xiong up and down, put her right hand behind her back, pinched a few formulas, and asked him, "You said you are a retired military officer?"

"Yes!" Facing the woman's question, Zhou Xiong replied calmly, but at the same time, he was still thinking about how the other party would confirm whether his identity was true.

But before he could figure this out, the woman smiled and said: "Very good! What you said is true. Open the door and let them in!" The latter sentence was obviously directed at those people. Said by the survivor militia standing guard at the entrance.

When the survivors heard what the woman said, they didn't question the correctness of her judgment at all, and immediately removed the obstacle blocking the entrance of the town.

Zhou Xiong and a group of subordinates were also able to enter Xiaotang Town smoothly.While leading the way, the woman introduced herself to Zhou Xiong and the others: "Hello! My name is Wang Yan, and I am the leader of this survivor base. Please introduce yourself too!"

"My name is Zhou Xiong. I want to know that. How did you judge that what I said was true? Could it be that you are an expert in negotiating, and you can judge whether the other party's words are true or false by the state of other people's speech?" At this moment, Zhou Xiong couldn't bear the doubt in his heart anymore, so after reporting his name, he asked the woman the doubt in his heart.

Facing Zhou Xiong's inquiry, Wang Yan replied with a smile: "It's very simple. I specially learned a lie detection magic, which can be used to detect whether a person is lying. With this magic, I have been able to catch lies during this period." When it comes to spies sent by more than a dozen other survivor groups, it’s quite useful!”

Hearing the woman's explanation, Zhou Xiong couldn't help but suddenly realized. At this time, he realized that the world has changed now. In the past, they had been hiding on the battleships, and they all relied on those powerful naval guns to resist those demons. , so I didn't pay much attention to the system that suddenly appeared, I just vaguely remembered that some tourists who took refuge on the ship also learned some magic through this system.

After dispelling the doubt in his heart, Zhou Xiong finally had the time to look at the current situation of Xiaotang Town.

This town didn't have a large population before the end of the world, and now it has an even smaller population. It looks like there are only a few hundred people. What makes Zhou Xiong strange is that all the survivors in this town have weapons in their hands. Some cold weapons, some even wearing some homemade plate armor, looked like ancient knights.This can be said to be very strange. After all, there must be a police station in this small town. In order to protect themselves after the apocalypse, wouldn't those townspeople go to these places to search for some thermal weapons for self-defense?Compared with cold weapons, the power of this hot weapon can be said to be much stronger, and there is no need to take the risk of close combat with monsters. It can be said to be completely destroyed by those cold weapons.

As if seeing Zhou Xiong's incomprehension, Wang Yan, who was leading the way, asked Zhou Xiong, "Have you never met a demon?"

"Of course we have encountered it! We have killed at least a few hundred demons during this time! However, the shells on our battleship are almost exhausted, so we will go ashore to search for some materials and tools, and prepare to make some shells to supplement consumption. !"

After listening to Zhou Xiong's answer, Wang Yan finally understood the reason. She continued to ask Zhou Xiong: "Then you must have been far away when you killed those demons?"

"Do you even need to ask? The maximum effective range of our battleship's main guns is nearly [-] kilometers! Even those secondary guns have a range of seven or eight kilometers. How can we let those demons get close!" Zhou Xiong replied as a matter of course.

"That's right! You are so far away from those demons, so that those demons have no chance to interfere with the operation of weapons on your battleship with magical power! You must know that magic power exists in the bodies of those demons, and they are naturally close to the fire element." And, it can interfere with the operation of our thermal weapons, and some powerful ones can even directly detonate the ammunition of thermal weapons, so now we don’t use thermal weapons, but replace them with cold weapons, you’d better prepare yourself an extra set of cold weapons Weapons and equipment, so as not to encounter those demons on the way back and be caught off guard!" Wang Yan explained to Zhou Xiong tirelessly.This is also because the other party is a veteran officer. After all, the soldiers of the Great Xia Federation are still very trustworthy.

And Zhou Xiong also obviously felt the other party's kindness, turned around and thanked Wang Yan solemnly: "Thank you for reminding! We really didn't know this before!"

In the next chat with Wang Yan, Zhou Xiong also knew that besides those demons, there are two other forces on the land besides human survivors, among which the more threatening ones are those undead creatures.Because billions of humans and countless animals were killed by the devil's forbidden spell on the dark blue star, the death energy is extremely strong. Even if those undead creatures stay still every day, they can rely on absorbing the air Use the free death energy to quickly increase your strength.So in less than a month, the strength of those undead creatures has increased several times. Now it is almost impossible to see those undead creatures in the form of elementary arms, and the last ones are the undead in the form of intermediate arms.Moreover, the number of these undead creatures is extremely large. Once encountered, there will be at least dozens of them. Once ordinary human survivors encounter them alone, it will be difficult to compete.

As for the second force, it is those mutated creatures. Most of those mutated creatures were some wild animals native to the deep blue planet, and some of them ran from places like human farms. Under the dual influence of the leaked magic energy, most animals inevitably mutated to a certain extent. Fortunately, those mutated creatures that absorbed more spiritual energy had a more docile personality and generally would not actively attack humans, but those who absorbed more magic energy The mutated creatures with more energy will attack like crazy when they see a living person, which is even more terrifying than those demons.Fortunately, there are not as many demonized mutant beasts as there are undead creatures, so the threat is not as great as the undead.

Listening to Wang Yan's story, Zhou Xiong also frowned. He did not expect that the situation on land would become so complicated, if not for meeting Wang Yan, the leader of the survivors who had good intentions towards them. , After learning this news, if they rush around on the land, they might be trapped to death at some point!

At this time, they were also brought to the entrance of the former town government office building by Wang Yan. This place had been transformed by Wang Yan into his leader's residence. Two fully armed guards with halberds were guarding the door.

After asking the soldiers brought by his men to Zhou Xiong to find some rooms nearby to settle down, Wang Yan took Zhou Xiong into Wang Yan's mansion, where Zhou Xiong also ate the first fresh vegetarian meal after the apocalypse.On the battleship, they could only rely on some compressed dry rations stored in the past to fill their stomachs. Even if he was a boss before, Zhou Xiong was about to vomit. Looking at the green pot of stir-fried vegetables in front of him With bright red tomato scrambled eggs, Zhou Xiong couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

"Okay! Eat it quickly! This is specially prepared for you! There is no one else here except me!" Seeing the other party's appearance, Wang Yan joked with a smile.

Zhou Xiong thought about it too, so he no longer had any scruples, picked up the chopsticks and picked up a large chopsticks of vegetables and stuffed them into his mouth.

Tasting the familiar taste, Zhou Xiong was so moved that tears almost came out. He never thought that one day he would be so happy because he ate a bite of green vegetables.

Wang Yan at the side opened a bottle of red wine at this time, first poured a full glass for Zhou Xiong, then poured a glass for herself, and began to taste it without haste.

After they were almost done eating, Wang Yan asked Zhou Xiong: "Vice Captain Zhou, can you tell me about the situation of your battleship?"

Before Wang Yan told him so much useful information, Zhou Xiong didn't hide anything from the other party. He told the other party most of the things that could be said, and finally even assured Wang Yan: "If the leader Wang Yan If you want to take our battleship with you, I can also decide to agree, after all, our battleship is a battleship, it is very big, even if it can accommodate thousands of people, it will not be a problem."

Hearing what Zhou Xiong said, Wang Yan naturally felt the other party's kindness, she thought for a while and replied: "This is indeed a good proposal, after all, there are too many dangers on this land, even if our townspeople have already All the people are soldiers, but there are still casualties during this period of time. Now there are only more than 800 people left. If a group of stronger demons attack again, the entire army may be wiped out. If you are on a battleship, you can avoid most of the dangers, and with powerful naval guns as protection, presumably even those high-ranking demons would not dare to attack easily!"

"It's just! If you keep hiding on the battleship, you will lose the opportunity to exercise, and your strength will always stagnate!"

Hearing this hidden worry from Wang Yan, Zhou Xiong couldn't help but be silent. If it was before, he would think that this is not a hidden danger. After all, in his opinion, no matter how powerful demons and monsters are, they can't stand up to their battleship masters. What a shot!But after listening to Wang Yan's introduction of the current situation on land, he also knew that those monsters and demons will continue to improve their strength over time, especially those demons, which feed on human souls , as long as the human souls are devoured, then the strength will become stronger and stronger. In this way, one day, those demons will be so powerful that even naval guns can't fight them.

Thinking about it this way, blindly hiding on the battleship is really not a good idea. Zhou Xiong feels that he will have to move on land frequently in the future to practice a level, so as not to be pulled too far away by those monsters and demons.

While Zhou Xiong was thinking about his future plans, a guard suddenly rushed into the room and reported to the leader Wang Yan with a panicked expression: "Boss, it's not good! That big rooster is here again. And this time with hundreds of mutated chickens!"

Hearing the guard's report, Wang Yan's complexion also changed. She knew the big rooster from a chicken farm in the small town. It mutated shortly after the end of the world, and wanted to take it with him. A group of hens escaped from the chicken farm.

But how could Wang Yan and the others agree? These chickens can be said to be their few meat reserves, so they immediately dispatched people to kill the mutant rooster, and then locked up the hens.

But the strength of that mutated rooster exceeded Wang Yan's expectations. It actually broke out after killing three survivor militiamen. Presumably the other party came back this time for revenge, but I don't know what this guy is. Where did they gather hundreds of mutated chickens all at once, this is quite a force!As far as Wang Yan knows, the mutant beasts with the lowest strength have all reached the level of high-level swordsmen.

Zhou Xiong also saw that Wang Yan's expression was wrong, and asked him, "What's the matter? Are you in any trouble? If so, we might be able to help. Our battleship is docked not far away on the sea surface. In fact, the nearby dozens of kilometers are all within the range of our battleship's main guns!"

Hearing what Zhou Xiong said, Wang Yan finally calmed down. At this stage, this battleship is indeed a strategic super weapon, and it can be said to be more than enough to deal with mere mutant beasts.

"I'll go out and check the situation first, and I'll let you know if I need help!" After leaving these words, Wang Yan and the guard left the room.

At this time, in an open space outside the small town, a mutated rooster over two meters tall and three meters long was pacing proudly, making a few noises in the direction of the town from time to time. The provocative tweet seemed to want to provoke the human survivors in the town to come out and fight it.

Behind it, there are hundreds of mutated chickens, large and small. The smallest of these mutated chickens is more than one meter tall, and the tallest is about the same as the headed mutated rooster. The mutation has become longer and sharper, and it looks like a ferocious eagle, which is very intimidating.

Facing such a group of ferocious mutated beasts, the human survivors in the town would naturally not attack without authorization. They all obediently hid behind the fortifications, holding various homemade hunting crossbows, bows and arrows, and were vigilant. Staring at the group of mutant beasts, waiting for their leader to come and preside over the overall situation.
