long night fire

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this is just a temporary hut for some hunters.

"Do you want to go there?" Sandro asked in a deep voice.

Meeting colleagues in the north shore wasteland is not necessarily a good thing, it is the same for both parties.

Selma was about to answer, but she already saw the corresponding situation clearly.

The gate of the rusty iron fence of the house in front of it is wide open; the overgrown garden has been rolled over and over again into a relatively flat road; there is a stone roof outside the main building for shelter from the rain, and a gray-green Jeep and A deep black off-road vehicle; in the hallway, a fire was raised, and a portable stainless steel round pot was set up, cooking something; beside the fire, surrounded by six people, three men and three women.

Two of them were in charge of guarding, two of them looked after the fire, and the remaining two huddled on the brought chairs and single sofas, and took the time to sleep.

What Selma, Sandro and others are most concerned about is not the number of opponents, but what weapons they carry.

"Short neck"...Assault rifle..."United 202"... After quickly confirming the situation, Selma said after deliberation:

"It's not good to go directly like this. If they take advantage of us to go down and shoot a few cold shots and blow up our tires, it will be dangerous."

Such weather, such a road, once a tire blows out, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Well, it's not too late to say hello to Liangliang Muscle before leaving." Sandro agreed.

Denise continued:

"Perhaps we can exchange useful information."

Selma, who was supported by her companions, drove the vehicle towards the gate of the house, and stopped when the patrol of the relic hunter team on the opposite side raised their guns to aim.

"Where did you come from?" Selma pressed the window and asked loudly.

"The original city!" Shang Jianyao rushed ahead of his companion and responded with a louder voice than the other party, "What about you?"

It was the "Old Tune Group" and Han Wanghuo and Zeng Duo who successfully escaped from the original city while preparing dinner while hiding from the rain. At this time, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao were tending the fire and heating the cans. Chen patrolled the surrounding area, guarding against accidents, and Han Wanghuo and Zeng Duo, who were not in good health and had been traveling for more than a day, took the time to rest.

As for Gnava, he is still idle, exploring every floor and every room of this house to see what books, newspapers and materials he can find from the old world.

"North Anherford." Thelma's voice pierced through the wind and rain, and penetrated into the ears of Jiang Baimian and others.

North Amherford refers to an area of ​​this wasteland north of the Red River, derived from similar place names in the Old World.

This kind of regional division has no clear boundaries and is a product of pure empiricism.

Before Shang Jianyao and the others could respond, Selma shouted again:

"Can I have a chat?"

"You can park your car over there and come here." Shang Jianyao stood up and pointed to a place on the side of the house.

From there to the foyer, there is shelter from the rain along the way.

Seemingly stable, Selma carefully drove the car to the predetermined location. Then, they each took their weapons and pushed the door down.

One of them was using the "Tlonger" assault rifle produced in "The First City", the other was carrying the "Lime Orange" submachine gun, the other was carrying a portable light machine gun, and the other was carrying the "Eagle Eye" sniper rifle. The firepower was quite fierce.

This is one of the reasons they are always treated kindly.

Before approaching the hall, they smelled a strong food aroma at the same time, and felt that breath penetrated into the heart through the lungs.

"Canned beef with potatoes...the supplies are very rich..." Selma and the others cheered up and walked towards the hall.

With the light of the fire, they finally saw the faces of Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and others clearly.

Gray soil people... have been genetically modified?A bit of background... At the same time as her eyes lit up, several thoughts flashed through Selma's mind.

As an experienced relic hunter, he and his companions have dealt with members of the "White Knights" and know the various manifestations of genetic improvement, and Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian perfectly fit the corresponding characteristics.

This made Selma and the others even more dignified.

"You guys came from North Amherford?" Jiang Baimian, who was sitting cross-legged by the fire, raised his head and asked.

Zeng Duo's Chuchun Town is in that area.

"Yes, the pollution there is relatively not that serious, and you can stay for a longer time..." When Thelma replied, she felt the smell of goulash pouring into her mind one after another, almost disturbing her thoughts.

They have been taking risks in the wasteland on the north shore for nearly two weeks, and they have long been tired of eating dry food and wild game with very bad meat.

Jiang Baimian didn't get up to say hello, but glanced at them and said with a smile:

"If you don't mind, we can eat together.

"Of course, I can't distribute beef and potatoes to you, which belong to my companions, but you are allowed to use dry food to dip in soup."

Selma, Sandro and the others looked at each other, and felt that this was not a bad thing.

The other party also wants to eat these foods, as long as you and others don't relax your vigilance.

While Sandro and Denise each held their weapons, Selma and Toller sat by the fire to prepare for accidents.

"How's the situation in Bei'an Herford?" Jiang Baimian asked along the way.

Selma thought about it for a while and said:

"It's the same as before, except that a certain army in the 'Original City' seems to be doing a drill. Once they get close to certain places, they will encounter them and cannot go further."

That's it... Jiang Baimian turned his body sideways, and glanced at Zeng Duo who was on the sofa next to him.

The lady has opened her eyes.

Selma took the opportunity to ask:

"What's going on in town lately?"

Jiang Baimian pondered for a few seconds, then said with a "hmm":

"The 'Hand of Order' is after a gang, and it's storming the town."

Chapter 154 Reporting

"It's such a big mess... What did that group do?" Toller, another companion of Selma, asked in surprise.

They have stayed in the original city for so many years, and it is rare to see the "Hand of Order" make such a big movement in pursuit of the target.

Although the other party didn't go into too much detail, the description of the city full of wind and rain still allows Thelma and others to intuitively glimpse the rough situation.

Shang Jianyao, who was fiddling with the fire, answered instead of Jiang Baimian:

"Planning a big conspiracy against the 'Original City'."

"What?" Sandro and Denise, who were in charge of security, blurted out.

Simply speaking, they may only take it as a joke, but with the reaction of the "Hand of Order", this problem becomes quite serious.

Shang Jianyao kindly explained:

"This is the content of the mission description. It belongs to the unilateral accusation of 'Hand of Order'. It may not be true."

Why does this sound strange... Selma thought for a few seconds and said:

"'Hand of Order' came to the guild to issue a mission? How much is the reward?"

He feels that the seriousness and urgency of a matter cannot be based on a subjective description. In comparison, the amount of the reward may be more telling.

"If you catch one member of the target group, you can get [-] Ore." Jiang Baimian said with a smile, "Of course, this is the price before we left the city. I don't know if it has changed now."

"[-] Ore for each target?" Selma, Toller and the others felt a toothache for a moment.

This level of bounty puts them off, and they don't think they can hope to complete it, and the corresponding risks must be too great to bear.

I can only see if there is a chance to get some clues to exchange for money... Such a thought flashed through their minds at the same time.

"I think it's too low." Shang Jianyao responded sincerely to the relic hunters' rhetorical question.

"It's not low, it's not low." Selma shook her head repeatedly, "There are not many such tasks in a year."

Jiang Baimian did not continue this topic, but asked calmly:

"This wasteland has been explored for decades, so there shouldn't be any valuable gains, right?"

The members of the "Old Tune Group" are all gray earth people. It is normal to be unfamiliar with the wasteland on the north bank of the Red River, so there is no need to hide it.

Hearing this sentence, Selma immediately made a judgment:

This is a team of relic hunters who have just come to adventure in the surrounding area.

The other party's appearance and kindness, as well as the simplicity and ordinaryness of the question, made him not hide anything, smiled and said:

"It's not what you think.

"Many places here are very polluted, and it was not until the last few years that it was restored to a minimum level. You can explore, er, there are still some areas that are not recommended to enter now, unless you can wear chemical protective suits and radiation protective suits all the time.

"In addition to exploring the ruins, hunting deformed creatures is also a way. They have high research value. The 'Primary City' officials are buying them. Some private researchers will even offer a price that is enough to make your heart beat, or directly hang a reward task. .”

At least two-thirds of those private researchers are white gloves, black gloves, and intelligence agents of major forces, who specialize in collecting biological materials for the organization... Jiang Baimian muttered in his heart, and asked deliberately:

"Are there any urban ruins that have only been accessible in recent years in the North Amherford area where you came from?"

"Of course." Selma nodded, "It's not a secret."

During the communication between the two parties, the pot of roast beef with potatoes was already hot. Shang Jianyao and the others took out oat bread and ate it.

Selma, Sandro and the others looked enviously, but they could only swallow their saliva, take out the biscuits that were about to get wet, dip some soup, and fill their stomachs.

Even so, they were still quite moved by the rich aroma and the taste that reverberated in their mouths.

Taking turns to have a good dinner, Thelma offered to leave.

Although this gray-earth team looked friendly and harmless, they still felt that they should keep a sufficient distance.

That way, the person in charge of the night watch will not be under too much pressure.

After showing off her muscles, Selma felt that if there was no serious conflict of interest, the other party would not take the risk of attacking herself and others.

Sandro, Denise, and Toller were on high alert, and Thelma drove slowly to another place with higher terrain.

The heavy rain quickly covered their tracks.

Jiang Baimian withdrew his gaze, covered his mouth and yawned:

"Let's hurry up and rest, and then we have to hurry."

After arriving at the north bank of the Red River, the "Old Tune Team", Han Wanghuo and Zeng Duo chose to go against the rules and go at night in order to avoid the drone search of the "Ultimate City".

Although compared with other teams, they have Gnava, an intelligent person who does not affect the "vision" range due to too much dark environment, so they don't need to worry about some hidden dangers, but they still dare not drive too fast and focus on stability.

In the daytime, taking advantage of the gloomy weather and poor visibility today, they continued on their way, and finally escaped from the search range of the "Original City" drone before the heavy rain. Point, there are also drones and other equipment.

As soon as Jiang Baimian finished speaking, Gnava had already walked down from the second floor of the main building.

With a red light in his eyes, he asked:

"Why did you let me stay up there for a while?"

Jiang Baimian turned his eyes slightly, and replied with a smile:

"Don't scare the guests..."

……

The torrential rain subsided in the middle of the night, and Selma and the others waited until dawn before embarking on their return journey again.

They traveled smoothly, arrived at the bank of the Red River, and returned to the original city through the bridge.

Since they had several tasks on their backs, they went directly to the Hunter's Guild without taking a rest.

While waiting for the handover of companions, Denise habitually looked at the big screen, looking for tasks that could be taken on later.

"Selma, look, the mission 'Hand of Order'." Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she patted the team leader on the shoulder.

Selma followed her reputation, and as expected, she found what the gray-earth team described before.

"Planning a big conspiracy against the 'First City'... The amount of the reward is [-] Ore per person? It has risen so fast, what have they done?" Selma became more and more frightened as she watched.

In just a few days, the amount of the reward has doubled, which inevitably makes people suspect that the seriousness of the matter is still increasing!

For Selma and others, the stability of the original city is the foundation of everything.

They don't want to go back to the original city and not be able to relax a little after going through dangers in the wasteland on the north shore and being physically and mentally exhausted.

Sandro and others also looked at this task, and soon, the name and photo of the target came into their eyes.

"Xue Shiyue... Zhang Qubing..." Selma's eyes suddenly froze.

His companions were no exception, all with dull expressions.

They have seen this group of people!

It was the gray-earth team that had described the mission to them!
