Chapter 2: Out of the City

"This is a small purifier, and when it is turned on, all the air within three meters in diameter is filtered out, and it can only last for three hours. Remember that no matter where you want to go after leaving the city, you must make sure that you can come back within three hours! Although there will be a special purifier in the team, if there is an accident and the team gets separated, you still have a chance to come back! In addition, this green is a polyp powder, and applying this to your body will make you produce the same aura as mutated creatures, so that they will not attack you. Remember, the duration of the polyphobic powder is only three hours! So, don't run too far, and don't get separated by yourself if you follow the team! Don't let the white-haired people send the black-haired people!" The mayor held a blue diamond-shaped square in his left hand and a transparent vial of green powder in his right hand, and instructed Wu Yu as he handed it to him.

“...... Don't say that, old man...... The more you talk, the easier it is to have an accident......" Wu Yu was a little helpless

The mayor slapped Wu Yu's head with a huff

"Damn, if it weren't for your kid rigidly going out of the city to do this task, wouldn't I be here with your family and the west?"

Wu Yu smiled wryly and stopped talking.

"You must follow the team when you go out this time, you better grow on the arbiter's lap! Don't run around alone, any cat or dog outside can kill you." Don't wander around alone, come back early after going out to do the mission! As long as you follow the team and obey the arrangement, you will be fine!"

"The more you say that, the more I feel like something is going to happen!"

Unable to hear the mayor's continued nagging, Wu Yu quickly took the purifier and the breath powder in the mayor's hand and put them in his bag, and then went to the town's mission hall to meet with the team.

There are not many people in the mission hall, and there are generally no arbiters in a town like this, and there are only a few bustling with them, after all, the resources and technology in the town are too scarce to cultivate excellent arbiters. Generally speaking, if there is a talent with a high heterogeneous content in a small town like this, they will be sent to a high-level urban area to study and cultivate. The mission center in the town is only set up to replenish the materials of the arbiters who have missions nearby. It is rare for someone to pick up tasks in such a small town, and they generally come to the designated mission center for material allocation or material replenishment after receiving them at the mission center in the city.

According to the information provided by the mayor, Wu Yu walked to the corresponding reception room.

There were already seven people in the reception room who had arrived early.

"Are you Wu Yu?" asked a middle-aged man with a frown.

"Well, you're Captain Zhou, aren't you? Wu Yu asked, because only the captain, the only C-level arbiter, had everyone's information.

The middle-aged man snorted coldly, and the strong muscles on his body also tensed with this.

Zhou Qi was actually very unhappy that he forcibly arranged an ordinary person to join the exploration team, although the exploration mission was the least dangerous, but that was only for the arbiters, for ordinary people, outside the city was almost a hell, and anything, even if it was just a grain of sand, could take their lives. Letting an ordinary person join the team means being distracted to protect him. Outside the city full of dangers, even if the arbiter himself is in danger, how can he have any intention to protect ordinary people! In short, it is a burden!

Wu Yu was also helpless, he also knew what it meant to be an ordinary person to an arbiter team. He didn't say anything, and walked straight to a position and sat down.

There were eleven people in this operation, and according to the mayor, except for the captain, the others were all D-class arbiters, except for himself, of course.

Wu Yu looked at the rest of the people, the five of them were quite normal, they were all a group of strong men with strong muscles to the point of drawing, only one of them looked thinner, and even looked smaller than Wu Yu.

However, the whole body of the man was wrapped in a black robe, and the hat almost covered half of his face, and he also wore a mask. I can't tell if it's a man or a woman. It seems a little strange in such a group of strong men.

What the hell? It's wrapped like a mummy, isn't it invisible? Or is it the non-mainstream of the new era?

As if feeling Wu Yu's gaze, the black-robed man looked up at Wu Yu, and a pair of light blue eyes under the mask met Wu Yu, and Wu Yu quickly withdrew his gaze.

The three people who came after that, who looked relatively young, should have just become arbiters, and according to them, this was their first time doing a mission.

After everyone arrived, Zhou Qi each handed out a bottle of breath powder, which can only last for an hour, if there is any situation to leave the team, it is best to come back within an hour. If you don't come back, you'll have to go to the side of the road as a picnic for mutated creatures.

"Remember, the main purpose of this trip is to find out if there are a large number of new species that are about to migrate to City 13. Don't clash with mutated creatures, although our existing breath-collecting device can avoid the sense of smell of mutated creatures, but once we fight them and produce blood, we will attract a large number of mutated creatures, and then neither the breath-collecting device nor the breath-collecting powder will be effective! I repeat, don't conflict with any mutated creatures! Do you understand?"

"Understood!" a few strong men carved out of a mold with Zhou Qi responded loudly. The young people who had just arrived also agreed, and Wu Yu also nodded.

After saying a few other rules, everyone checked their luggage and set off.

Outside the hall, there were two dark green military old-fashioned pickup trucks, and the engines turned to make a humming and shaking sound. Most of the current squads use this old-fashioned military pickup as a means of transportation, after all, it is relatively stable and can carry many people at a time.

Zhou Qi took four muscular men and got on the first pickup truck, leaving one and Wu Yu and his party to sit in the back of a pickup truck.

Because outside the city, only people like Zhou Qi, who often enter and leave the city and often do tasks, can have a high enough vigilance and sensitivity outside the city, and once something happens, they can immediately know and avoid it, if they let ordinary people like Wu Yu or those newcomers come to open the road, they may have driven to the lair of mutant creatures, and they may not be able to react.

Moreover, the first car is much more likely to encounter danger than the second car, and Zhou Qi is the strongest here, and he must take the biggest risk.

at the gates of the city

The two soldiers stood straight in front of the door, not squinting, standing still. The new spear in his hand retains the gun structure and shape of the original heat weapon, but Zi** has replaced it with a bullet bag flowing with dark green liquid.

The soldiers stationed in every city are all soldiers, and they are also the arbiters among the soldiers! All of them have experienced a hundred battles, and at least they must be C-level comprehensive strength assessments! Once a mutant creature breaks through the defense and intends to break through the city gate, then these garrison soldiers will become the second line of defense and defend the city with flesh and blood!

Wu Yu looked at these warriors with some longing, maybe Shen Heng also wanted to be such a warrior. Defend the family and the country, and live to die, there is a young man who does not have such a passionate heart.

Zhou Qi got out of the car and explained the reason for leaving the city with the garrison soldiers, and showed the mission certificate.

Subsequently, the pitch-black steel gate was opened.

Outside the city is more desolate than expected

There is almost no green to be seen, either cracked ground or weathered flying sand. Large areas of dark red marks were soaked on the ground, and in some places they were almost soaked black. A strong smell of blood could be smelled from afar, and these marks were none other than those left by those mutated creatures after they were killed, or by those humans who were buried in the mouths of mutated creatures.

"Gross!" Wu Yu and a few other young people had vomited several times in the back seat, after all, people who had lived in the city for a long time, had experienced this, and just now they also saw that a creature that looked like a cow had its head bitten by a snake-like creature, and a bloody strip was pulled out of its stomach. Wu Yu and the others couldn't tell whether it was intestines or something, they only felt a tumbling in their stomachs, and they kept gushing out of their throats.

The people who stayed in the car and talked to Zhou Qi's team laughed

"It's just a bunch of calves!"

Said so, but when he first arrived, he was not much better than them, and I remember that after he went out of the city for the first time and went back, he didn't eat anything for three days, and he really couldn't put his mouth shut.

However, there was one person who didn't react much, that is, the mysterious black-robed man who had been silent, and it seemed that it was not the first time he had gone out of the city. I don't know what kind of person he is, and there is very little introduction to him on the captain's profile, and even the photos are with masks. I only know that he is a D-class arbiter, from City 4, and is gone.

However, Liu Chong didn't ask much, anyway, if people are willing to come, let him be, as long as the mission is not delayed, there is nothing to do.

Along the way, the fight between mutant creatures has not stopped, as if in the most primitive world, killing is being killed, except for predation is predation.

Wu Yu and the others gradually got used to such a scene, and they didn't vomit anymore, but their stomachs were still very uncomfortable. Although there were many scenes of fighting along the way, Wu Yu noticed that after the car had been traveling for so long, there seemed to be only a few mutated creatures around.

"This giant rat with fangs longer than its forefeet is called a sawtooth mouse, and its teeth can pierce through a 30-centimeter-thick iron plate. A person of about 1.8 meters can be eaten by it in about a minute. “

Wu Yu looked at a rat-type creature more than half a meter long not far away that was eating a cow-type mutant creature, probably the same kind of cow-type creature that was bitten by a bite in the head.

Good guy, this mutant cow that looks like it's three adult sizes, is still at the bottom of the food chain.

Liu Chong continued: "The cattle-type mutant creature that is being eaten now is called, the Iron Horn Ox, and only one pair of horns is very hard all over the body, and the density even exceeds that of titanium alloy. Don't look at him every time he is the object of eating, if he really encounters a human, the D-class arbiter encounters him, and if he doesn't pay attention, he will be served. Only a C-class arbiter can be said to be sure to kill him, or a D-class team can be dispatched together. “

"The reason why he keeps being eaten is only because his skin is so thin, compared to other mutant creatures, his thick skin is like paper, it can be broken at the touch of a button, and with this skin all over his body, this is a living target. So it's easy to be preyed upon by other predators. “

Wu Yu has seen the introduction of these mutated creatures in the book, these mutated creatures will also be strong and weak because of the heterogeneous content in the body, and the ironhorn cow with a very high heteroblood content may even be able to break a city with one piece! These ironhorns in front of him may just be some creatures with a low concentration of alien blood to a certain realm, so they will look so weak, but it is more than enough to eat him.

By this time, the team had been marching for more than five hours.

It is dozens of miles away from the convoy of Wu Yu and others

Hundreds of cow-like creatures with silver light were rushing in the direction of Wu Yu and the others at an extremely fast speed.
