Act I: The Broken Heart Chapter 68: The Darkest Day in the Wilderness

As of 2 hours after the Guardians went to the Wilderness, the number of remaining Guardians in the Wilderness shrank from 3,915 to 867, of course, there are many Guardians who used coins to return to the node, these Guardians have lost their former high-minded appearance after returning to the node, they are lost and their eyes are dull, and those Guardians who usually dislike and despise explorers in all kinds only to find out that they are nothing compared to the explorers they despise.

The number of people who have descended is 13,612, excluding the remaining 867 in the wilderness and the 562 who have returned, and it is only two hours now, and more than 12,100 guardians have been sleeping in the wilderness.

Looking at the data in front of him, Long Lao's face showed a sad look, this more than 12,000 people can be said to have exposed the corpses in the wilderness because of his decision, every time he saw the confirmed death toll flashing on the screen, Long Lao's heart would throb.

"I don't know if this move is right or not, alas~~~~, but since it has reached this point, I can only continue to walk!" Long Lao looked at the remaining sparse light spots on the screen and couldn't help but sigh.

……………………

On an open field, more than a dozen figures were sitting on the edge of a boulder, looking embarrassed, and the external skeleton armor was covered with fine scratches, which showed that these people had experienced an unusually vicious battle before.

"Phew~~~~, this is really not a place for people to stay, but this time we didn't come in vain, boss, how much exploration value do you say these crystal nuclei can be worth!" A swarthy explorer looked at the few crystal nuclei in the bag in front of him, and swallowed his saliva, this was the first time he had killed an earth beast to obtain a crystal nucleus, he heard those explorers say that the crystal nucleus of an earth beast is generally worth thousands of exploration values, which is equivalent to his salary for a month or two.

"It would be nice to have 5,000 together." Morpheus glanced at the dim crystal nuclei in the bag, they had been besieged by several earth beasts, and although no one died, a few unlucky ones were slightly injured.

This annoyed Morpheus a little, and he preferred that his squad could maintain its full combat strength rather than obtaining these crystal nuclei.

"Isn't it! The brothers worked hard to get such a little thing in the end? The thin black man's face was bitter, 5,000 exploration points is a lot, but there are 14 people here and there, and the average point is more than 300 exploration points per person, which is not enough for what they consumed before.

"Put away your thoughts! It's not a paradise for you to brush up. Morpheus poured out a grain of compressed food and solid fresh water, threw it into his mouth, and after a few gulps, he said, "Here, it's a hell that eats people and doesn't spit out bones." ”

………………………

Ressa's group of ten people didn't know whether it was good or bad, their jumping place was at the edge of the forest, a few hundred meters behind them was a dense forest, and in front of them, there was an abandoned town, the walls of the town had collapsed, and the situation on the periphery could basically be seen.

"What are we going to do next? Captain? Lisi looked around curiously, although there had been a simulated battle before, but when she really went to the wilderness, all this still made her very curious.

"Be careful, let's get out of here first!" Resa looked at the surrounding environment, and said that the position of the jump this time was not bad, and it was not bad, at least it was not thrown directly into the forest.

The group cautiously walked towards the ruins of the town, they were in the pocket of the U, and if they didn't want to enter the forest, they had to go through the ruins of the town at the seal.

This town doesn't look big, and it covers an area of nearly a kilometer. Tongxiang Zero and Mo Qianyan can even see the end of the town on the other side through the telescope.

"There is no danger on visual inspection, but a potential threat cannot be ruled out." Mo Qianyan put down the telescope in his hand and looked back at Ressa: "Do you need to arrange a tactical perspective, this time I carried three quantities of detection perspective bombs." ”

"There's nothing wrong with being careful, let's set it up!" Ressa turned off the long-range function of the tactical lens, and the town was eerily quiet, making him feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Mo Qianyan nodded, he quickly clicked a few times on the sniper rifle in his hand, replaced it with a special magazine, and then he turned on the silent mode of the sniper rifle, and fired more than ten shots in the direction of the town, until there was a sound of clicking empty chambers, he clicked a few times on the side of the sniper rifle, and then quickly replaced a gray magazine.

Mo Qianxian received the sniper rifle behind him, and then he clicked on the personal terminal, and then the images were reflected from the personal terminal.

The dilapidated streets, the roads are cracked and broken, some buildings are toppling and breaking, all kinds of weeds and some fungi are growing, and there is no trace of ash on the pavement, which means that no creatures have been here recently.

"......" Resa frowned, there were no creatures in the town, could it be that they were hunted by the presence of the forest? Resa looked at the dense forest behind her, confused. This kind of thing has not happened before, just like when he was unlucky enough to jump into Arachne's lair, and the deviants and other creatures within more than ten kilometers of the abandoned subway station were eaten by Arachne.

"What should I do?" Icarus shifted his gaze from the screen to Ressa, who was already equipped with the Battle Angel's external armor, which allowed him to turn on fire in an instant even if there was an emergency.

"Is there a Scout Robot?" Ressa looked at Simon and asked, even though everything was quiet on the screen, but in the wilderness, silence was the biggest anomaly.

"I'll do it!" Without waiting for Simon to answer, Feiqi on the side took out a ten-centimeter-long cylinder from his back waist, clicked on it a few times, and placed the cylinder on the ground.

A steady stream of very small mechanical beetles crawled out of the cylinder, roughly estimated to be about one or two hundred.

Feige stared at the dense green dots on his personal terminal, which represented the location of the mechanical beetles, in an inverted triangular array. If a potential threat is detected, the beetle's display on the personal terminal will change color, the low-threat light spot will turn yellow, and the high-threat spot will turn red.

Except for the two who were staring at the screen, the others were cautiously guarding their surroundings, after all, they were not a safe place.

"What is this?" Mo Qianxian's voice attracted Ressa's attention, Resa looked at the screen he was staring at, at first he didn't see any clues, as Mo Qianxian adjusted the perspective of the screen, little by little to enlarge, Ressa's brows furrowed, because he saw clearly, just behind a broken wall, revealing an arm, an arm that belonged to a human.
