Bring Interstellar to the end of the world

Chapter 246 Broom Star

"Tomorrow morning, I will take Zang Feng, General Wang, and Wei Qianshou to the settlement of Langya. You can use the power armor here as you like."

After saying this, he added: "Before I officially leave, I will leave a Goliath armed robot in the sea fish canned warehouse... Tokuko, I want you to spend a day today to familiarize yourself with its basic operations."

Dezi, Jifengtou, Zhang Chengzhao, Huang Ren and others looked at each other...

I haven't seen you for a few days, and deputy head Tang has more equipment at his disposal...and this time they can play big guys.

Gloria Armed Robot!

Although many people haven't seen it, the three young masters, Aircraft Head and others who experienced that encounter came back and told the story about Gloria's armed robot.

That is a combat mecha that can shoot down military transport aircraft, not an engineering mecha like an SCV, or an individual power armor like a 5-4 armored combat suit.

They looked at Tokuko with envy and jealousy.

Dezi smiled silently, grinning to the sky, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud, fearing that his performance would be too exaggerated to annoy Deputy Head Tang and leave this beautiful job to others.

After dealing with the equipment distribution, Tang Yan went to the cold storage facility at the entrance and asked someone to transfer the body of the mud crab king to the storage box, and then left shelter 1017 to watch the panda equipped with P-43 power armor Soldiers of the People's Legion were conducting drills in the wasteland north of the factory.

He hopes that the first batch of nuclear fusion cores will arrive at Maxim's Cannery, and the 50 sets of P-43 power armor can be put into use directly.

The day goes by quickly.

The second day also passed quickly. It is worth mentioning that Amoi swept away all the nuclear fusion cores on sale in the Gemstone City market and sent them all to Maxim's Cannery.

In addition, there are a number of weapons suitable for soldiers equipped with power armor, such as Type 89 machine gun, Gatling machine gun, RPG-7, automatic grenade launcher, anti-tank mines, etc., and a laser Gatling.

Tang Yan did not worry about the distribution of weapons, leaving it all to Zeng Hua. He put all his thoughts on tomorrow's deal with the Yanhuang Brotherhood.

………………

Before the sun jumped out of the horizon, the first ray of morning light tore a thin crack in the night, the gate of Maxim's Cannery slowly opened, and a vulture chariot and a modified pickup truck rushed out of the factory area and headed west.

The driver of the vulture chariot was Tang Yan, Zang Feng and General Wang sat in the cab of the modified pickup truck, and Wei Qianshou was wearing a set of CMC-300 power armor sitting in the cargo compartment of the modified pickup truck guarding the body of the mud crab king.

The total journey from Gem City to Qingcheng Town is about 270 kilometers. Considering the speed of the modified pickup truck, even if there are no obstacles all the way, it will take more than five hours.

On the way, General Wang kept complaining, complaining that Tang Yan only cared about his own pleasure and ignored their lives.

The speed of the Vulture Chariot was very fast, and the modified pickup truck chased after it with all its strength, but it barely hung behind the Vulture Chariot.

The road is not smooth, the ground is full of cracks and potholes, and sometimes there are detours, the riding experience of the modified pickup truck is naturally extremely poor.The Vulture Chariot is different. As a suspension vehicle, there is basically no bumps, and the ride is very smooth. The ride experience... It should be said to be a joyride.

Of course the cook had reason to be unhappy, of course he had reason to be jealous.

Tang Yan didn't know what the cook was thinking, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

The cost of the vulture chariot is nothing compared to the current balance of reward points in the system. He has enough resources to prepare one for everyone, but the vulture chariot is a single-person vehicle. If one person has one, who will carry the corpse of the mud crab king What about the safe deposit box?

Leaving Qindao City and almost entering Langya City before the nuclear war, the speed of the Vulture Chariot slowed down.

It wasn't that there was an obstacle blocking the road ahead, but that Tang Yan saw a familiar person.

This is the third time seeing that person.

The first time was in the bed of a converted pickup truck headed to the base of the Black Saints.

The second time was on the way to Jiashan Reservoir.

The third time was at the junction of Qindao City and Langya City.

He said his name was nameless.

Tang Yan didn't know if the man really didn't have a name, or he just casually gave him a code name of Hu Zou.

The last time I saw him was in the wilderness to bury a family of four who had been attacked by looters. This time I saw him not in the wilderness. There was a collapsed and dilapidated viaduct on the left side of the road, and there was a small village on the other side of the viaduct.

It is said to be a small village, but judging from the number of buildings, there are at most four or five households.

When he looked over, Wuming was sitting on the field full of weeds in front of the crop field, holding a long tobacco rod in his hand, sucking one bite at a time.

Opposite him were two wooden beds that were joined together. A circle of dry firewood was piled up around the wooden bed. Blazing flames spread above the bed boards, and black smoke billowed up.

Tang Yan noticed what was sinking at the bottom of the flames...it seemed to be human corpses, there were seven or eight of them.

In front of the wooden bed was a black incense burner with one ear broken, and three sticks of incense were inserted in it, and gray-white smoke curled up into the air.

Tang Yan didn't go over to talk like last time, but just slowed down and looked at him from a distance.

Wuming didn't come over either, and with drooping eyelids, he was smoking dry tobacco.

As time moves forward, so does the vulture chariot. The collapsed viaduct blocks the line of sight, and the nameless face is no longer visible.

Tang Yan's facial expression was a little weird, thinking what's going on with this person?Broom star?Why is it bad every time I see him.

The first time I saw Wuming, the combined forces of the Pandaren Legion, the Black Hand Mercenary Group, and the Gem City Guard invaded the Black Saints base, killing some people.

The second time I saw Wuming, he was burying a family of four killed by looters in the wilderness.

The third time I saw Wuming, he was cremating the corpses of the villagers, but he didn't know whether those people were killed by looters, fierce beasts or living corpses.

In short, it is unlikely to be killed by an unknown person.

The wasteland has always been a world where killing is not burial, and the nameless act looks like an embalmer, giving the dead the last dignity and care.

"Tang Yan... did you see that man just now?" General Wang's voice came from the communicator at this moment.

Tang Yan didn't speak.

"That person... We've met him before, he seems to be named Wuming... or something? This person is really evil, and he's so sinister that it makes people feel horrible."

Wei Qianshou sneered from behind: "Hey, you're still so sinister? Cook, have you opened your eyes?"

"..."

Tang Yan ignored the quarrel between the two men, put the unknown matter behind him, and continued on his way in the vulture chariot.

When the sun was westward, everyone arrived at the destination of the trip, Qingcheng Town.

Qingcheng Town is a coastal village, located a little north of the ruins of the port city, with a population of only 200 people.

In the past, Qingcheng Town was a subsidiary of Langya Settlement, but as Langya Settlement surrendered to Jicheng, Qingcheng Town announced that it would be independent from Langya Settlement.

It sounds absurd for a small town with a population of less than 200 to implement self-government, but the result of the incident is that the people in the Langya settlement finally compromised.

The reason for this result is, on the one hand, that the relationship between the people in Qingcheng Town and Jicheng is very bad.

Before Jicheng used political means to support puppets in the Langya settlement, it sent military planes and armored troops into the Langya settlement many times to exert pressure by means of force and intimidation.

Because Qingcheng Town is close to the sea, there are occasional monsters such as mud crabs, Ankang monsters, and fog shrimps that land ashore, posing a great threat to the residents of Qingcheng Town.

Once when fierce beasts were raging on the coast, residents of Qingcheng Town came across the Jicheng Armored Squad when they went to the settlement of Langya to seek military support, and immediately asked for help to protect the safety of the town.

Who knew that the people of Jicheng not only failed to agree to their request, but also beat the residents who were sent to the Langya settlement to ask for support half to death, and the two sides formed a hatred.

If Jicheng is described as an elephant, then Qingcheng Town is like a praying mantis. Of course, Jicheng will not care about the hatred of a small town.

However, in the days that followed, this small town became an iron nail on the bedside of the big boss of Jicheng.

On the other hand, Jiankang City was very unhappy with Jicheng's interference in the internal affairs of the Langya settlement. After Qingcheng Town announced its autonomy, it issued a statement to show its support. Coupled with the relatively weak but real opposition voices in the Langya settlement, so Qingcheng Town has been in a state of autonomy for many years.

Tang Yan was ready to talk to the guards of the town, and prepared two bottles of Lao Lang wine as a meeting gift. Who knew that when he approached the village, he found an abnormal situation.

There was no one on the sentry tower that surrounded the village entrance, and there were no guards behind the roadblocks and bunkers.

He ordered Zangfeng and the others to stop, get off from the vulture chariot, put on the son of Keha power armor, and walk towards the half-opened gate step by step.

There was no blood or corpses, but the ground was very messy.

When Wei Qianshou, who was worried about him entering the town alone, caught up from behind, Tang Yan stopped in front of a wooden house at the entrance of the village, and picked up a dark green scale from the ground.

"If my guess is correct... this seems to be the nail of a mud crab."

"Well, I think so too." Wei Qianshou glanced at the empty town: "Could it be that the town has encountered a beast horde?"

Tang Yan didn't speak, and took a few steps forward, rubbing the empty bullet casings on the ground with his feet.

Next to the cartridge case was a green speck, much like bodily fluids from a glowing corpse being attacked.

Wei Qianshou also noticed the cracked carapace with seaweed not far away, like a part of the mud crab's razor claw body.

"It seems that we really encountered a tide of beasts..."

The two walked forward for a while, and found that red spots began to appear on the ground, which should be human body fluids, but fortunately, no corpse was found.

It may be because of the frequent visits of fierce beasts. The outside of the houses in Qingcheng Town are connected with thick wooden boards and masonry structures to form a small cottage.

The further they walked, the scales, carapaces, and spots on the ground also increased, and the bullet casings fell everywhere.

Judging from the layout of the bunker and the footprints on the scene, the people in Qingcheng Town seem to be very familiar with the rhythm of the beast's attack. There is no confusion or haste. The whole process from counterattack to retreat seems to be very standardized. I think it has been practiced many times in the past.

"Everyone here seems to have left..."

Tang Yan nodded and agreed with Wei Qianshou's idea.Facilities like Maxim's Cannery also have two underground passages for evacuating employees in dangerous situations. Qingcheng Town must have similar escape facilities, but I don't know where they are located.

Of course, even if he finds a secret path, he is not willing to force his way in. It would be bad if he is treated as an enemy.

"Tang Yan? What's the situation inside?" At this moment, General Wang's question came from the communicator.

"It seems to be attacked by a wave of beasts. Everyone in the town has taken refuge. Wei Qianshou and I are... ah..."

Tang Yan suddenly stopped halfway through his words.

"What's the matter? Hey, hey, what's going on?"

Wei Qianshou took a step forward, and suddenly realized that Tang Yan had not followed. When he looked back, he saw the man squatting down with his hands on his head, panting heavily, as if enduring endless pain.

"Tang Yan...Tang Yan...what's the matter with you?"

At this moment, Tang Yan was unable to respond to their questions at all. He only felt that the objects in the foreground were blurred, and the whole world was swaying, distorting, and becoming blurred.

There is a small wooden house ten meters away on the right, and in the corner behind it is piled firewood for making a fire. There is an ax embedded in the firewood, and the edge of the ax blade has a little rust.

The windows of the cabin facing the street were crucified with cross planks, and the walls were a little dirty, and naughty children used chalk to paint a small animal that looked like a dog, not a dog, or a pig, not a pig.

It was when he saw that house that he felt like he was hit hard. He had an unbearable headache, and many fragmented pictures flashed in his mind.

He wanted to keep a complete picture, and he even wanted to draw out a timeline, but none of these could be done. He just felt familiar with that house, as if... as if he had lived there before, used that ax to chop After passing those firewood, he would use vague words to scold the disobedient kid while playing.

I don't know how long it has passed, the pictures in my mind no longer flicker, the headache gradually subsides, and the scene in front of me begins to become clear and gentle.

He saw the worried faces of Wei Qianshou and Zang Feng, and heard General Wang calling his name.

"It's...it's okay." He struggled to get up from the ground: "Just remembering some Dong XZ Feng frowned.

Wei Qianshou didn't know that Tang Yan lost his past memory, but he knew.

After Tang Yan came here, he recalled the past, what does this mean?
"I seem to have been here for a while."

"Have you spent some time in Qingcheng Town?" The three of them were stunned.

Tang Yan nodded, signaled to General Wang that he was fine, and walked towards the wooden house on the right.

The house has not been lived in for a while, there is a lot of dust between the windows and the wooden boards, and the dirty rainwater is also accumulated in the urn in front of the door. If you get close, you can smell the pungent sour smell.

The door was closed tightly, and there was a lock on the outside.

Seeing him staring at the lock in a daze, General Wang was about to go over and smash it open with the butt of his gun.

At this time Tang Yan made a movement.

He groped in the small cabinet next to him for enshrining the statue, and when he pulled out his hand, there was an extra key in his palm.
