Chapter 288: Wasteland Journey
Today is a rare sunny day in the wasteland.
Even though the sky is still full of strange lights and shadows caused by spatial anomalies, and although the surface of the earth is full of creatures and land contaminated by crystallized radiation, this does not prevent the survivors of the wasteland from getting up and working according to the habits handed down from ancient times. The scavengers carry their battered bags, the camp guards load their guns, and in this dangerous world, there is nothing happier than being able to see the sun the next morning.
The group marched through the ruined land and headed in the direction of the camp. The sentry of the survivors' camp rubbed his eyes and confirmed that it was not a hallucination caused by the radiation infection, and immediately spread the information to the camp, and it was not long before the head of the camp came to the camp gate to greet the dusty group of men and horses.
The teenage mercenary replaced the captain lying on the stretcher and reported at the front of the line.
"The terrain of the ruins of the city of Ayros has been preliminarily explored, and this is a brief map. In addition, on the way, we accidentally alarmed a wandering Crystal Fang, and during the retreat, five people were killed, and Captain Ain was seriously injured and endangered, and I would like to get medical support from the camp immediately. ”
"Mad Crystal Fang?!"
The soldiers in the camp exclaimed in surprise, the name of the Wasteland Tyrant was like thunder to them, but the number of Crazy Crystal Fang's group was too scarce, and most of the people who had seen it were not able to boast to others, and today they suddenly heard the news about Crazy Crystal Fang, and they all started talking.
"Send Captain Ain to the infirmary first, use all the medicines and equipment that can be used, go quickly!"
The middle-aged man, who was the leader of the camp, shouted at the soldiers, telling them to carry Captain Ain's stretcher to one of the tents in the camp. Seeing this, the people of the mercenary team breathed a sigh of relief, and the girl mercenary bowed his head.
"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Hérault, and the cost will be deducted from our employment fee. ”
"It should. The middle-aged man known as Hérault smiled broadly, but he always had doubts on his face.
"But did you really encounter Crystal Fang? It's not that I question your integrity and ability, to be honest, even a team of 'Crystal Knights' can't help that kind of monster."
"You're right. The girl mercenary showed a helpless wry smile on her face, and then moved her body out of the way, showing Mo Jun, who had been looking around, in front of Ero.
"Allow me to introduce you, the brave man who rescued us from the mouth of the Crystal Fang, who single-handedly subdued the beast, and"
"Not as exaggerated as you say, Miss Charlene. Mo Jun raised his head and said to the shocked Ero and the helpless girl mercenary, "It's just that I was lucky enough to cut through the weakly defended abdomen of the other party, and then Crazy Crystal Tooth ran away - thank God, I was just hot-headed and wanted to put on a heroic show to save the beauty from the beautiful Miss Charlene, in fact, when I actually faced Crazy Crystal Fang, my calves and stomach were trembling." ”
These words were naturally a lie made up by Mo Jun temporarily, but in the ears of Ero and Charlene, they had two completely different meanings, the former smiled knowingly, patted Mo Jun on the shoulder with the demeanor of an elder, and said earnestly: "I understand, if I were twenty years younger, maybe I would do the same thing as you." Charlene is a well-known flower in the neighborhood, boy, if you take a fancy to her, you must be prepared to be held to the head by other guys in the middle of the night. ”
And in the ears of the young mercenary, these words were not half ambiguous, but there was an urge to make her smile bitterly - this guy who was known as a trembling calf and stomach held a one-handed sword and Crazy Crystal Fang for more than ten minutes, and in the end he was still neatly dressed and unscathed, and the most important thing was what he did to Crazy Crystal Fang: Crazy Crystal Tooth ran away, but this guy was in trouble and directly released it into the surrounding wilderness - the sky is above! Radiation is above! He tamed Crazy Crystal Fang!
Charlene decided that she never wanted to see this man again after this mission, he was like a bottomless black hole, mysterious and dangerous, and exuded an aura that did not belong to this wasteland world, as if he was out of step with everything around him. Although he was powerful, Charlene had seen the tragic end of too many people who coveted the strength to take risks, and she secretly swore that she would not become such a fool.
But
"What if I also have that great power, the power to make the Mad Crystal Tooth surrender, the team will not be killed or injured, and the captain will not be injured. ”
Eventually, the mercenary team was assigned to their usual location at the camp, and Mojun was placed in a separate tent by Hérault as a guest of honor, in the latter's words, "a reward for the warrior for making the quest a success."
It's night.
Although it was the VIP of the camp leader, the tent where Mo Jun was located was not very luxurious, and could even be described as shabby. The only good thing about this is that there are no holes in the tents and the environment is relatively clean. The furnishings are also very simple, with a sleeping mat, an old oil lamp, and a table with paint off. On the table was the freshly delivered dinner, a mushy substance made from mutant rat meat, potatoes, and unknown leaves.
In short, Mo Jun was not in the mood or had an appetite to enjoy this dinner, which could be called a "big meal" in the eyes of the scavengers. He casually placed the bowl of eerie smell of mush in a corner, and summoned his little maid.
In life, you can't treat yourself badly.
Taking advantage of Sakura's cooking skills (can you believe she brought a whole set of magic-powered stove cooking utensils?), Mojun took out a card from his pocket and observed it carefully.
"It's a little different from the original choice card, and there's an extra 'blank' prefix and so on, and the prefix may be related to the prefix card. It's a pity that the number of card types in my hand at this stage is too small, and I can't summarize the rules of use, so I can only look at it step by step. Anyway, Senior Sister's bonus doesn't seem to be useful.,Why is it a useless extra option to change crystals every time.,I'm afraid it's not because it's too pitiful, so no one chooses her power.,That's why I was forced to join the gang"
"Boom !!"
Mo Jun's self-talk was immediately interrupted by a thunderbolt outside, and the deafening sound made Mo Jun shudder violently, while the people in the survivor camp continued to be busy with their work, because for them this strange thing happened every day, as long as it didn't fall on their heads.
"Damn, that's what Rule Ten means. Mo Jun swallowed his saliva and laughed dryly.
Rosa retracted her hand back into her sleeve, a soft grunt coming from her small nose. On the table in front of her lay a map, a map made up of many cards. It's just that each card on this map represents a game area, not a map that only represents a game event as Mo Jun sees.
At this time, the trialists of the tea restaurant have all entered the game world created by the four witches, and the witches came to the tea restaurant with their servants from the portal half an hour after the game started, and they took their seats on the sofa, enjoying the tea brewed by Rosa (with low-quality tea bags), and then looked at the game map in front of them and laughed happily from time to time.
Although 50% of this laughter was provided by Alice, the other 50% was provided by the white-haired witch of the Twins. Among the remaining two, Rosa was lying on the armrest of the sofa as lazily as always, as if she was indifferent to the game in front of her, but she always paid attention to her junior brother's actions. The other was the dark-haired witch of the twin witches, who seemed to have always been this taciturn, staring at the map quietly with unwavering eyes, not saying a word, the opposite of her lively sister.
"Cut, it's always this boring expression, be careful of long wrinkles. ”
Seeing Rosa's expression, the blonde witch Alice couldn't help but encourage: "The participants selected by the concubine have already ended the first game scene and got the double-digit cards!
"It doesn't matter. Rosa blinked, her slender eyelashes fluttering slightly, "Ye Mad is the best in the same rank, it is normal to be able to lead, even if the final winner is him, I will not hesitate to give away the control of the world, in this case, I can only blame my junior brother for not having this ability." ”
"Hey, you two don't decide the winner of the game on your own!" the white-haired witch named Elvira patted the table dissatisfiedly, "Miss Ben's chosen participants are also very strong! She has just finished the first game scene! Don't underestimate me!"
Alvina raised her head slightly, glanced at her elated sister, and then sighed imperceptibly, and fell into silence again.
"Venna, what kind of expression do you have, hey, shouldn't you stand by my sister!"
"By the way, who is the participant selected by Sister Wen Na?" Alice said suddenly, "The person she chose last time almost ruined the good thing of the concubine, and it seems that the silent Sister Wen Na is the most powerful competitor." ”
"Confidentiality. Alvina brushed her slender hair with her small hand, and then looked up at Rosa, "This game, although fair, is very beneficial to Rosa. ”
"Oh, why is that?" Alice was surprised.
The witch's game is absolutely fair.
Elvila, the witch of perpetual motion and destruction, collects world fragments, the witch Alvina who is still and composed builds the world, Alice, the witch of cause and effect and probability, sets the rules, and the witch Rosalind of mystery and knowledge runs the world. Each of the Supreme Witches participated in the formation of the game world and maintained it to this day, so no one can interfere with it, and the rules of the game have been negotiated by the four witches from hundreds of thousands of years ago to the present day.
But as Alvina said, this game, as always, is fair, but for Rosa, it is very advantageous, because Mojun, like Rosa, has the identity of a mysterious envoy.
"Senior brother. Rosa didn't answer Alice's question, but said silently in her heart: "Take advantage of this game to cultivate your ability as a mysterious envoy, and when the teacher comes, I will be able to give them an errand." ”
