Devil Fruit: Invincible from the Tremor-Tremor Fruit
Chapter 1172
The pocket watch kept turning. The little girl driving the twisted creature glanced at Mu Bai with her empty eyes and immediately left the scene. Other mutant creatures swarmed in to cover their retreat.
"Interesting, it seems that the mutant creatures have their own forces behind them."
In less than two minutes, the surroundings were full of sulfur smell, and the red remains were spread in the desert.
While the people in the moving convoy were still discussing the suddenly appeared mutant, Mu Bai had already caught up with them.
"Hello, sir, are you a mutant sent by the underground city?" The captain of the second team got out of the car and asked calmly.
"You can think so. I was also entrusted to help you escort."
Mu Bai, who spoke lightly, looked at everyone carefully. The mutants in the other party's mouth may refer to people with extraordinary abilities, but it is obvious that there are no mutants among these soldiers. This is interesting.
You know, there are more than 100,000 people living in such a huge underground city. How could such important equipment for purifying water resources be escorted by ordinary soldiers? That can only mean that there is a serious internal struggle among the upper echelons of the underground city to which they belong.
Otherwise, the defense force would not be so weak.
After noticing Mu Bai's gaze, the captain of the second team looked a little hesitant. It seemed that there was no one else he could ask for help at this moment.
"Sir, I have an important matter to trouble you."
After leaving the convoy for a short rest, the two came to the back of the cool boulder.
After looking back in the north, the captain said in a deep voice: "Sir, which faction in the underground city are you from?"
Which faction? Mu Bai didn't even know which dungeon the other party was talking about, let alone such specific information, but there was no need for a team at the moment, so Mu Bai spread his hands and said indifferently: "Central faction, I don't participate in any faction battles and I have no interest in it. My only mission here is to escort you back to the dungeon."
The captain of the second team looked a little surprised. He had never heard of any centrists, but seeing that the other party didn't look like they would harm them, he simply told them all about the subsequent route and dangers.
"Ant nest?"
In the other party's mouth, they were going to pass through an ant nest in the doomsday wasteland era.
Although this seemed a little funny, this ant nest was not an ordinary ant nest but a nest of mutant creatures.
In the mouth of the captain of the second team, the steel giant ant was a tank-sized ant covered with thick carapace.
They had a huge head, two huge pincers that could easily cut steel bars, and a sharp stinger was hidden under the abdomen. Once the target was stabbed, a strong corrosive liquid would be injected.
"The steel giant ants are social creatures. Basically, the place where they live is a forbidden zone for life. Ordinary steel giant ants are above the third-level superpowers. If they go out in groups, even a fifth-level legendary superpower cannot guarantee that they can break out alive."
When talking about the legendary superpowers, the captain also deliberately observed Mu Bai's face. He actually suspected that the other party was a fifth-level legendary superpower.
After listening to the other party's explanation calmly, Mu Bai picked up the other party's map and asked curiously: "Why don't you change a route? The city route marked here should be safer."
"It's...more dangerous there."
The captain with a stubble on his face raised his head silently and said in a fearful tone.
"It was a modern city with tens of millions of people. In the early days of the end of the world, most of the population were infected by radiation and mutated into various creatures, and most of the bottom became zombies, and a few evolved into zombie kings..."
In the narration of the captain of the second team, these zombies seemed to have developed wisdom, so the route through the abandoned big city to enter the underground city was even more dangerous. After all, the overwhelming group of intelligent zombies is far more terrifying than the steel giant ants.
"Choose the city route."
Finally, Mu Bai made the final decision.
"Even abandoned city roads are mostly passable, which is faster than the ant nest route. As long as we break through quickly along the edge of the city, we can also reduce the travel time. When necessary, I can use my ability to attract the attention of zombies."
Compared with the ant nest and the zombie city, Mu Bai's eyes are more dangerous for the team. After all, according to the biological characteristics of ants, it is almost impossible for the entire team to pass safely, not to mention the bumpy terrain of the ant nest.
It seems that Mu Bai was willing to fight so hard for this escort. The captain of the second team, Yang Qi, was also deeply moved. The other party's appearance at this critical moment was a timely help.
After the team rested, they set off immediately.
Along the way, Mu Bai also learned from Yang Qi that the person who controlled the mutant creaturesThe origin of the little girl who attacked the convoy was actually a mutant human, but this kind of mutant human is different from the zombies in that they are often mental mutations.
Zombies are more likely to have physical mutations.
The metropolis with a population of tens of millions, once prosperous and noisy, is now in doomsday despair.
The high-rise buildings look particularly desolate in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the broken windows and walls bear witness to the tragedy of the disaster. On the streets, abandoned cars are scattered in all directions, some are still emitting thick smoke, and the air is filled with the smell of burning.
Zombies wander aimlessly on the streets, and their figures look particularly strange in the afterglow of the setting sun. Their eyes are empty and their faces are hideous, their bodies are covered with blood and dirt, and they make hoarse roars as if they are looking for the next prey.
In the corners of the city, you can occasionally hear the cries for help from survivors, who hide in dark corners or in the ruins of high-rise buildings and try their best to resist the attacks of zombies.
These people are often those who cannot enter the underground city because they have high radiation in their bodies. It is somewhat ironic that most of these people are high-level people who used their status and power to hoard supplies before the doomsday, because after the doomsday, those fresh foods have become the most radioactive products.
As night fell, the city gradually went out.
Only sporadic fire flickered in the distance, which was the survivors trying to make a living. The zombies became more active in the dark, and their roars echoed in the silent night, making people feel waves of fear.
This once prosperous city has now become a ruin, as if it also symbolizes the collapse of human civilization here, and the hope of survival has become slim.
And all this is only eight months away from the doomsday.
The convoy appeared cautious after entering the abandoned city, and Mu Bai, who was jumping in the steel forest, kept directing the direction of the convoy with a walkie-talkie.
