Fantasy Game: Infinite City

"Bang~Bang~Bang~~~"

“Heh~~!”

The indistinct sound coming from afar startled Gloria. She sat up suddenly from the ground and looked around in confusion.

"What is this place?"

After waking up completely, Gloria determined the surrounding environment. This seemed to be an alley in a city. There was nothing in the alley, but she seemed to be in a small partition separated by barbed wire and wire gates.

The wire gate was locked with a large padlock for some unknown reason. Moreover, the padlock was not locked from the outside, but locked on this side. On top of this small partition was a concrete rain shelter, and there was no exit to other locations, so the padlock locked on this side made Gloria very confused.

But this is not important now. Gloria must find a way to figure out where she is and also find Han Zu. After all, he is not nearby.

"I clearly remember that we fell for a long time, hit the ground, and then fell again. There are no signs of damage around here. We should have separated a long time ago. Did we get separated during the fall?"

Since Gloria fainted when she was hit by the second fall, she didn't know what happened afterwards. That's why she thought that she and Han Zu separated for some reason when they hit the ground for the second time.

Gloria stood up from the ground. Strangely, the discomfort she had felt had disappeared. But Gloria always felt that something was missing, so after checking herself, she found that her connection with the energy in her body seemed to have disappeared. She had now become an ordinary person.

But in fact, she was not very ordinary. Gloria, whose body had been evolved by Han Zu, still retained her strong physical fitness. This gave Gloria some confidence. In this unknown position, with a strong physical fitness, she would not be completely without countermeasures when facing unknown emergencies.

"Bang~bang bang~~"

The vague sound in the distance appeared again, and this time Gloria distinguished it carefully.

"Gunshots?"

The enhanced hearing didn't seem to rely on energy, so Gloria quickly distinguished what those unclear sounds coming from afar were. Gloria thought that tracing the source of the gunshots might give her some information. So she moved her body and confirmed that she could move normally. Gloria was ready to leave here and go to the direction where the gunshots came from.

The padlock was nothing special, just an ordinary lock. Gloria grabbed the padlock and crushed it into scrap metal without much effort. After leaving the small partition separated by the wire mesh, Gloria observed the surroundings of the alley again. But this time, she realized that something might be wrong here.

“Why don’t these surrounding buildings have any windows?”

The surrounding buildings had no light at all. And for some reason, all the buildings here were basically rough concrete houses, as if the developer had run away. No decoration, no renovation, just concrete. But Gloria knocked on it and found that the concrete was very solid.

Gloria remembered that she had used the power of fire when she was falling. That time, she burned all her clothes, and now she was naked. But as a former combat unit commander, Gloria didn't care much about it. But the obviously abnormal environment around her made Gloria instinctively want to find something to wear, not because of shame, but because Gloria wanted to find something that could be used as armor.

Soon, Gloria came to the end of the alley. Outside was an empty road. But strangely, Gloria heard the sound of running water. Leaning her head out slightly, Gloria saw that there seemed to be a river that was not very deep but very wide, running through the buildings across the road.

At the same time, Gloria also discovered that it was not just the windows. All the buildings she could see also had no doors. In other words, all the buildings had no entrances or exits, and there was no other material except concrete. So far, the only difference between them was the barbed wire and the wire gate where she woke up.

"Maybe I should go back and take a look."

Gloria didn't rush to leave the alley. She thought about the difference between that place and the surrounding environment. So she went back the same way to see if she had missed any information. But when she reached the corner close to that location, she heard footsteps. The footsteps sounded mixed, and it seemed that they were not from one person. And judging from the weight of the footsteps, Han Zu was not among them.

There was a shadow at the corner that was big enough for Gloria to hide in. So Gloria lowered her steps and hid in the shadow. She quietly exposed one eye and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.

When Gloria saw those people clearly, she felt a little confused. In what Gloria saw, there were four people lined up and walked over from the other side of the alley. They were wearing strange things, all kinds of things.

It's like a man wearing a motorcycle helmet, but wearing ancient armor and hiking shoes that have only been available in recent years. In his hand, he holds a Gauss rifle.

There was another woman, she was wearing a very ordinary sportswear, but she was wearing a tactical chest mount from more than 20 years ago, and in the ammunition storage bag of the chest mount were some miniature energy cores used in energy weapons. On her head was a headband from the Immortal Army during the Persian Empire. On her waist was a messenger bag, which also looked like it was made decades ago. But in her hand was an energy pistol that should have appeared in recent months.

The remaining two people were also a man and a woman. The woman was sturdy, wearing an exaggerated explosion-proof suit and holding a sledgehammer. The man had no other clothes except a pair of dirty sneakers and an equally dirty pair of shorts. He had an activated remote-controlled bomb tied to his chest and an old-fashioned mobile phone with only one button in his hand. It looked like a homemade detonator.

The four walked slowly and soon reached the partition where Gloria woke up. The woman with the energy pistol walked into the partition and seemed to be looking for something, while the other three stood guard nearby. Their behavior looked like a scavenging team in a desolate wasteland.

The guy with the remote-controlled bomb was walking around slowly, getting closer and closer to the shadow where Gloria was hiding. Just as Gloria was struggling whether to take the initiative, the man with the Gauss rifle in the scavenging team suddenly turned his head and shouted a few words to the others. Gloria couldn't understand what he said because of the language barrier. But after the others heard it, they immediately ran in the direction of the man.

"@!￥@￥%!!!!!"

"Buzz~~!!!"

“Aa ...

Suddenly, another group of people appeared in the direction the man was facing. After seeing the four people, they immediately started shouting. Although Gloria couldn't understand them either, she was sure that the two groups were speaking completely two different languages.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

“Woo hum~~!!!”

"boom!!!!!"

Soon, a fierce battle broke out between the two sides. The sounds of energy weapons and live ammunition weapons firing, their shouts, and the shouts of the guy with the remote-controlled bomb as he charged mixed together for a while. However, after a violent explosion, everything returned to calm.

Gloria looked out and found that there were originally eight or nine people on both sides, but after the bomb exploded, only two people were left. One was the sturdy woman in explosion-proof clothing and holding a sledgehammer that she saw at the beginning. The other was one of the other gang members, a guy wearing a hooded sweatshirt, shorts and basketball leggings. That guy was holding a compound bow and standing farther away. The others were squeezed into the narrow alley and were taken up into the sky by the guy who blew himself up.

But strangely, there was no bloodstain on the surrounding walls.

Of the remaining two people, although neither was injured, the sturdy woman was not at an advantage. First, she was a close combatant, and second, although the explosion did not injure her, it blew up the top of her explosion-proof vest, revealing her body wearing only a vest. Moreover, the narrow alley was not suitable for her to charge, and because of the explosion-proof vest, even if she could charge, she would not be very fast.

The guy with the compound bow was different. He was standing far away and was not actually standing in the alley. He was hiding outside the alley. The alley was a straight line, so for an archer, even a half-baked one, he could kill the woman in the explosion-proof clothing before she rushed to him.

“Swoosh! Swoosh!”

"DiDi! DiDi!"

"boom!!"

Not to mention, the archer was using explosive arrows.

Two explosive arrows knocked down the strong woman without protection on her chest. The alley finally fell into silence. The archer waited outside for a while, then put away his bow and arrow, took out a knife, and walked into the alley cautiously. After checking around and finding no one, he squatted down and searched the dead guys.

"tread."

The sound of footsteps immediately caught the archer's attention. He turned back alertly, but found nothing. Holding a knife, he walked cautiously in the direction of the sound. It was the corner of the alley, and there was a shadow big enough to hide someone.

"despair!"

The archer walked around the corner and swung his knife into the shadows, but all that was heard was the sound of the blade hitting the concrete wall.

“@￥%....”

The archer muttered something, perhaps thinking he had misheard, put away his knife, and prepared to go back to scavenging.

"Hey."

At this moment, someone patted the archer on the shoulder from behind. The archer's hair stood on end, and he turned around abruptly, reaching for the knife at his waist. But when he turned around, he found that there was a naked woman in front of him, which made the archer stunned. It was this daze that caused the archer to lose the opportunity to draw the knife.

This person was Gloria, who had just used the walls on both sides to hide in the shadows. After the archer turned around, she came down from above and stood behind the archer. After the archer turned around again, Gloria approached closely, holding down the archer's left hand that was about to draw the sword with one hand, and with the other hand, with the palm of the hand facing up, she hit the archer's throat fiercely.

"Crack."

The archer's bones were dislocated, and he had difficulty breathing. He subconsciously pressed his throat with the hand that was not controlled by Gloria. Gloria immediately released the hand that was holding the archer, pulled out the knife, and stabbed it vertically into the archer's chin. With her other hand, the palm of her hand was facing up, and she quickly hit the bottom of the knife handle, pushing the knife completely into the archer's head.

"Boom."

In a flash, the archer was dealt with by Gloria before he could even make a sound and fell to the ground.

Gloria quickly stripped off the archer's clothes and all his equipment and put them on herself.

"What a pity. She's a beauty."

After changing her equipment, Gloria looked at the female archer's body. There was blood on the wound, but for some reason, it was disappearing quickly. The same was true for the other bodies. It was not a good place to stay for long, and Gloria was not going to leave from the exit of the alley. So she used the walls on both sides of the alley to quickly climb up and climb onto the roof of a building. Leaning against the corner of the roof, she checked the equipment she had obtained and began to observe the surroundings.

The archer's clothes were nothing special, just a normal hooded sweatshirt, a pair of sports shorts, and a pair of basketball leggings. It didn't matter. The compound bow seemed normal, and it was estimated to have a range of about 100 to 200 meters. But this quiver and the bow and arrow inside were not simple.

There are six cylindrical storage slots in the quiver, each of which holds five arrows, for a total of 30 arrows. Twenty of them are ordinary bow arrows, as can be seen by the color of the arrow shafts, nothing special.

Among the remaining ten arrows, five have explosive arrowheads, and the arrowheads of the remaining five are not made of ordinary metal, but more like some special chips. Their functions are currently unknown.

Although the storage slots inside the quiver were made of metal, the outside was a high-grade leather jacket. Although there was nothing special about the leather jacket, Gloria discovered through observation that the six storage slots inside seemed to have a special device at the bottom.

Gloria seemed to have an idea. She took out an arrow and put it aside.

"Buzz~"

"really!"

However, another arrow suddenly appeared in the empty storage slot. This time, Gloria saw clearly that the new arrow was made by the special device at the bottom of the storage slot.

Opening the leather jacket outside the quiver, Gloria discovered that under each of these storage slots, there was a piece of identical manufacturing equipment, and these devices were all connected to a rectangular metal box. Gloria could recognize the words on the box. It said "Compressed Material Package".

The metal box contained specially treated manufacturing materials. They were compressed several hundred times to make them easier to carry. They could be restored to their original state with the help of specific equipment, so that the required materials could be remade. Based on the capacity of the metal box and the advanced level of the equipment, Gloria could be sure that before these specially treated manufacturing materials were consumed, a thousand bows and arrows could be made. However, the manufacturing materials inside were not complete, and they were probably used by the previous archer for a while. However, there were still a few hundred bows left. It was enough.

"It's better to have something in hand, even if it's just a bow."

After checking the equipment she had on her, Gloria also conducted a general survey of the surrounding environment.

"Bang~ Bang~ Bang~"

Gloria saw that there seemed to be a skyscraper in the distance, and the gunshots seemed to come from the skyscraper.

"boom!!!"

A huge explosion once again attracted Gloria's attention. A certain floor in the middle of the skyscraper suddenly exploded, creating a gap and thick smoke coming out of it. But soon, the gap in the building suddenly recovered, as if nothing had happened.

"It seems I have to go over and take a look."

Gloria began to move across the rooftop of the building, moving towards the skyscraper.
