Chapter 282: A New Beginning - The Era (4)

The cold night that has been venting for a long time finally put away its emotions, as if it suddenly changed from a child to an adult who is not alarmed, and the full moon that has been hidden is also hanging on the branches, but the flying hexagonal snowflakes have not stopped dancing, and the layers of snow curtains are still tirelessly trying to block the entire earth.

After the heavy snowfall in the middle of the night, the entire undulating mountain seems to have risen a few points, and the factory building covering an extremely large area has also turned into a black shadow and crawled at the foot of the mountain.

"Whew"

With a few wolf howls, more than a dozen black shadows in the distance were rapidly approaching the woods at the foot of the mountain, as if they were physically exhausted in the cold air, and as if they were seriously injured, the wolves' pace became slower and slower, and the howls became deeper and lower.

There was a rustling sound in the town not far away, and several houses on the edge of the town at the foot of the hill seemed to hear the sound, and some people came out of the ruins one after another with torches and flashlights, and appeared in the snow-covered winter night.

They were dressed in layers of clothing, tightly wrapped, the dirty clothes on their coats were covered with cotton wool, and the hands holding knives, clubs, and weapons were full of calluses and tears, and they looked at each other, and there may have been people in the middle, but they were full of vigilance.

"It was a supported wolf, it should be a wolf, it was quite injured and exhausted, and it stopped while directing the wolves" An experienced old scavenger stepped out, his dark cheeks full of longing, perhaps wanting to provide information so that he could get a piece of the pie, and was agitating the crowd to form a team to hunt the wolves.

Fresh beast meat was the food of the scavengers who could only eat shriveled bacon with wild vegetables in soup for an unknown amount of time.

But they are not those high-flying evolutionaries, nor are they those brave lone warriors and strong mercenary teams in the wilderness, and they can only avoid those ferocious beasts, huddle in the wilderness and eat some leftovers, barely surviving.

After the old man finished speaking, there was some commotion in the crowd, this winter was too cruel and long, fresh beast meat was their best capital to survive, but no one acted rashly, although things were good, they also had to be enjoyed by life, and the two contradictory characters of greed and prudence were skillfully softened on their group.

"No, it's a mutant beast, it's a first-level mutant beast evolved from a beast, it's extremely seriously injured, it needs to stop and recuperate, it's scolding the rest of the wolves, the wolves are a little restless" The old man said excitedly when he heard the wolf howls coming one after another, and his originally dark cheeks also produced a touch of red at this time.

"Are you sure it's a mutant beast?" a tall man squeezed beside him, grabbed the old man by the collar and asked sharply.

"Is it really a mutant beast?"

"Can we kill the mutants!"

The voices in the crowd suddenly became noisy, apparently startled by the news of the mutant beast.

The mutant beast is the embodiment of ferocity in their eyes, and every time it appears, it is accompanied by the news that some gathering points have been destroyed, and the place where the mutant beast appears is the place where countless people's nightmares begin.

"I'm sure it's a mutant beast, it's different from the voice of an ordinary head wolf, even if it's injured, its voice is still strong, and its flesh and blood have also undergone a qualitative change" The old man's voice trembled a little because of excitement, and his cloudy eyes burst out.

No one will doubt his words, and a few scavengers in the crowd who are also amazing and rich can also judge one or two, mutant beasts are already two species from a certain level, and ordinary beasts are two species, some physiological characteristics have been revealed, all races are, and even after a certain level of evolution, their wisdom is no less than that of humans, especially after a hundred years of turmoil, some kings of powerful races have also learned that humans have begun to hibern, and a large area of death forbidden areas are all countries of new species.

"That guy, it must be worth ten golden heads" The old man continued to agitate, even if the mutant beast was seriously injured, it was not something that his aging body could compete with, but if this group of people were tempted, he would have a chance, if he was lucky enough to pick up the demon crystal of the mutant beast, he might be able to go to the black-hearted business in exchange for an evolution potion, if he could become an evolutionary, he would at least live another seven or eight more years, and his life would have a second spring.

The old man fell into a delusion, and his face turned red.

Not only him, but other relatively weak scavengers were also tempted, Jin Datou was not the meaningless paper money of the civilized era, and those things were reduced to a piece of waste paper at the first time of the turmoil.

However, this kind of coin made of precious metals is hard currency in various places, and the precious metals it contains are the things that are extremely needed by the fortresses and forces of various civilizations, and belong to strategic materials, because in addition to being curtained into currency, it is also the main ingredient on various weapons and armor, and even various energy chariots and airships.

According to the proportion of the metal mixed in it, it is divided into gold, silver and copper, one silver coin is equal to one hundred copper, and one gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins. And every thing they ate was worth a few coppers.

The old man actually didn't know how much the mutant beast was worth, they didn't even dare to look at the mutant beast, how could they know how much the mutant beast was worth in the villages and towns where they were cowering, he just reported a huge wealth value that was the largest within the scope of his cognition.

Ten gold heads, 100,000 copper, he probably can't take it.

However, the mutant beast's sharp claws, tough fur, fresh flesh and blood, hard skeleton and precious demon crystals, the mutant beast full of treasures is at least worth dozens of gold heads, of course, these have nothing to do with them at present.

After the old man's words were finished for a while, the tall and fierce scavenger in the crowd with a burly figure took the lead in stepping out with a wide knife in his hand, and the people who were still watching behind him also became excited after hearing the ten gold heads, and those who originally pretended to be slippery and weak followed at the end also strode to follow at this time, and couldn't wait to get a piece of the pie.

There was a scholar in the civilized era who said that for the capitalist, "if there is 10 percent profit, he will be used everywhere, if there is 20 percent profit, he will be active, if there is 50 percent profit, he will take risks, for 100 percent of the profit, he will dare to trample on all human laws, and if there is 300 percent profit, he will dare to commit any crime, even to the risk of hanging." ”

They are not those greedy capitalists, but even more greedy scavengers who pin their heads to their belts, they have no interests in their eyes, only survival, and their lives are at stake.

......

In the dark night, Du Chen opened his eyes, and his face, which was still a little sleepy, was quickly filled with vigilance after he heard the intermittent wolf howls outside and the voices of some scavengers.

There are people out there and there are quite a few of them, and there are also wild beasts......

No, it's a mutant.

The mutant beast that was extremely injured was surrounded by people!

It shouldn't be a mercenary, and the mercenary's movements won't be so noisy!

There were also a few people pointing at each other by name, and it was supposed to be a group of scavengers who worked together for a short time to drag a badly injured mutant beast.

After nearly ten years of experience in surviving and struggling on the life and death line in the wilderness, he immediately judged the situation outside through the voices that came one after another.

But no matter which side wins, this is the nearest housing area nearby, where scavengers need to take shelter from the wind and snow, and recuperate their injuries, and mutant beasts with extremely high intelligence will also find this place according to the human taste, especially the mutant beasts that are supported, and the flesh and blood of humans are also a tonic for them.

At that time, the fight could not be avoided, and he could protect himself, but Jiang, who was weak and sickly, was not good early.

Besides, the mutant beast is full of treasures, flesh, bones, tendons, fur, and especially the source of its strength, the demon crystal, is even more valuable, and he couldn't avoid the powerful mutant beast before, but now this mutant beast that is extremely seriously injured, coupled with the fact that there are scavengers entangled in it, even Du Chen, who has always been calm, is hot in his heart when he thinks about it, and he can't help the greed in his heart.

In the dark night, he shook his wake and leaned on his shoulder, Jiang Zaozao, who looked at Du Chen in a half-confused state.

"There are people outside, I'll go out and have a look, if I don't come back, you can take food and water and hide in another place" Du Chen frowned, signaled Jiang Zao, and pointed to the constant wolf howls and scavenging scavengers outside.

"You'll be back, will you?" The strange thing is that Jiang Zao, who has always been bold and slammed, did not stop him this time, but took a deep breath and asked.

She vaguely guessed in her heart that the situation outside was dangerous, the wails of the scavengers were getting louder and louder, it was estimated that the beasts were eating their bodies, and the remaining survivors were still fighting with the beasts, which were very close to here, and it was not a wise choice to hide.

And blindly dodging is not Du Chen's character, rather than waiting for their side to win and free up their hands to clean them up, it is better to take the initiative.

But she didn't know that what was outside was not an ordinary beast, but a mutant beast that was more than ten times more powerful.

Du Chen got up and took out the weapon wrapped in layers of torn oilcloth from the side, and turned his head to Jiang Zao at the moment he pushed open the door.

"There is still a flowery girl at home who has not eaten it, and she will definitely come back"

In an instant, a large number of six-sided snowflakes poured in from outside, and the bloated young man who was not tall, holding a weapon wrapped in a torn tarpaulin that was different from his size, closed the door, and disappeared into the snow without looking back
