Chapter 197: The Black Forest
Qi Lin drove the pickup truck for hundreds of kilometers in one go before stopping at a gas station on the edge of the road.
Qi Lin is not short of gas, and food and water are quite sufficient, but as a qualified player who is crawling around in the wasteland world, it is only right to go in and have a look at such a gas station that has obviously not been searched by others.
Many high-level props are often hidden in some inconspicuous corners, such as the fragment of the activation core in Qi Lin's backpack.
Although he didn't expect to find one of the debris here, Qi Lin still jumped out of the car and ran quickly to the gas station with the SCAR-H in his arms.
Gas stations are the kind of buildings that have always been fiercely contested by players in the wasteland, not only because of the gasoline in the underground oil storage tanks, but also in the rest areas and supermarkets attached to the gas stations, there are often a lot of old life supplies left behind - if the gas station was once garrisoned by troops, it is very likely that some weapons were not taken away.
The gas station in front of him was clearly used for military purposes, and there was a ring of defensive sandbags that were almost the same color as sand, and the gas station building itself had been reinforced with wood and metal.
Gas stations like this were not uncommon in China, and the all-out war led to a large-scale migration of people to the west, and at that time, ordinary police officers could no longer maintain the extremely chaotic order, so they naturally had to leave the task to the army.
……
There are three zombies wandering around the gas station, two wearing the uniforms of gas station staff and one wearing the combat uniforms of the old Chinese army.
Qi Lin put away the assault rifle and pushed open the glass door of the gas station empty-handed, the three zombies were just the lowest-level rotting corpses, and it was not worth wasting bullets, and besides, shooting in such an empty wilderness, the sound of gunfire could be heard far away.
casually picked up the chain wrapped around the glass doorknob, and at this time, the three zombies who were originally wandering around aimlessly also discovered Qi Lin, an "uninvited guest", and immediately roared and pounced on him.
With two "whoosh" sounds, the metal chain flew into the air with a large amount of rotten flesh and sticky blood, and Qi Lin instantly used the chain to break the neck vertebrae of the two zombies in front, and then flew up with a kick and kicked the head of the soldier zombie wearing combat uniforms upside down.
Killing the three rotting corpses in the blink of an eye, Qi Lin did not rush to start the search, but squatted next to the corpse of the military zombie and turned the corpse over.
The number on the armband shows that he was a corporal in a local second-line unit before his death, but the ZH05 assault rifle hanging on the corpse told Qi Lin that this second-line unit was likely to be a special force.
Many special forces in China are very well hidden, like those units with loud nicknames such as "Flying Dragon" and "Sharp Sword", they are only the tip of the iceberg outside the capital, and more elite special forces are just some inconspicuous ordinary numbers.
ZH05 assault rifle is the last mass-produced assault rifle in the old era, integrating the concept of "individual integrated combat system" that was popular at that time, and the degree of intelligence is quite high.
"System Prompt: Obtain [ZH-05 Assault Rifle], blue quality item, Accessories: Computer Fire Control System (Damaged), Laser Sight Ranging System (Damaged), Smart Grenade Launcher (Damaged)."
When Qi Lin took the assault rifle into his hand, he found that the high-tech parts on it were basically all damaged, which is also a major drawback of this weapon - the durability is too poor.
The AK47 produced more than 100 years ago can still shoot bullets even if the gun itself is in tatters after going through various harsh environments, and such a high-tech weapon with cutting-edge technology will greatly reduce its combat capability as long as it is neglected for a period of time.
Hanging the strap of ZH05 on his shoulder, Qi Lin pulled out the magazine inserted in the pocket of the opponent's combat vest, as for the black combat vest, the inner layer had completely grown with the rotten flesh and blood, and Qi Lin lost the desire to peel it off and put it on himself at a glance.
In addition to these three zombies, there are also a lot of bones and bullet shells in the gas station, and there are also many bullet holes in the wall, according to these clues, Qi Lin can basically deduce everything that happened here before these people's lives.
The nuclear bomb fell, the radiation spread, and these people who did not make it to the shelter huddled in a small gas station to survive, but several of them turned into zombies under the effect of radiation and viruses, and a skirmish broke out in the gas station in an instant.
The end result was clearly that the zombies had won, and at the level of radiation that was enough to mutate people into zombies, the other survivors were probably dying.
There is a lot of food and water in the gas station, all of which carry a lot of radiation, but in addition to these things, the most valuable thing Qi Lin can find is the ZH05 assault rifle that has lost most of its functions.
Carrying some supplies and putting them on the pickup truck, and filling up the fuel tank of the car, Qi Lin took one last look at the gas station abruptly on the side of the road and stepped on the accelerator.
But this time, Qi Lin had not been able to drive ten kilometers before he had to step on the brakes again.
"This ...... Black Forest?! ”
Through the windshield of the car, Qi Lin saw a large "forest" in front of him, swallowing up the entire highway.
The trees in these forests were like blackened dead branches, but Qi Lin knew that these seemingly lifeless dead branches, as long as they had enough nutrients, could swallow a city in one night.
"How can there be a black forest here?" Qi Lin jumped out of the car and approached the edge of the forest vigilantly.
The word forest has always been synonymous with life in the dictionary, but in the Black Forest in the wasteland, it represents only horror and death.
Powerful evolutionaries can fight against one or more dangerous mutated creatures, but if they step into the Black Forest, they are not just facing one or two individuals, but the hostility of the entire Black Forest.
"After the judgment is completed, the alienation level of the Black Forest ahead is: Advanced. It is extremely dangerous and it is recommended to detour immediately. Cooper's voice rang in Qi Lin's ears.
"No, Cooper, according to the map of the old era, there is not even a tree in a radius of dozens of miles around here, where did such a large-scale Black Forest come from? Even if the growth rate of the Black Forest is terrifying, there must be a foundation, and it is impossible to grow such a large piece for no reason! ”
"Master, if you are mentally prepared, I suggest you look behind you."
Listening to Cooper's words, Qi Lin suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and as soon as he turned around, the hairs on his body instantly stood upside down-
I saw that the black pressure behind me was also a large black forest, and those ghostly dead trees seemed to appear out of thin air, blocking all the ways Qi Lin came!
And the most cutting-edge part was already close to the pickup truck that Qi Lin parked there......
"This black forest grows silently in 3.7 seconds, and it is estimated that it covers an area of about 20,000 square meters, if you still need my advice, it is only two words: Run!"
