149. In the dark zone

When he really entered the dark zone, Ding Hao really understood what kind of world this was like every step of the crisis. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The sky here is always ominous dark green, heavy clouds churn in the sky, dazzling purple lightning from time to time accompanied by a deafening thunder throughout the whole world, compared to the sky, the ground can be described as extremely dangerous, everywhere is one green mud puddle after another, the scorching mud contains strong radiation and toxins, bubbles float up from the depths of the mud, and then explode with a snap, spreading the hot and deadly sludge out.

A drop of sludge stuck to a passing berserk rat that looked disgusting with rotting wounds all over its body, but was able to move with ease while the surface of its body was almost completely decomposed, and it was clear that this berserk rat was also extraordinary. Even so, after being stuck to his legs by the green sludge, the rampaging rat jumped two meters high as if it had been burned by a soldering iron, and then scurried around frantically, falling to the ground and stopping his breath in less than 10 seconds.

"We had plowed almost all the east coast of the United States of Blue Eagle with nuclear bombs, but I don't think nuclear bombs alone could turn this place into this." Looking at the scenery outside the porthole, Li Huatian frowned. "Nuclear bombs are just weapons, and now this place is hell."

Ding Hao also looked out of the porthole, and the hummingbird drone was quietly following behind the VTOL aircraft, "If we can find that captive, we will probably know what happened here." ”

"Hopefully, but don't put all your hopes on the captive." Li Huatian sighed, "After all, he has been captured for nearly ten years. ”

Ten years is a long time, and God knows what has become of that captive now, or whether he's a member of the Shadow Blades or not.

Either way, at least find him before you can say anything else.

In order to prevent the grass from startling the snakes, the VTOL plane placed the six shadow blades in the wilderness outside Nashville, and then left quickly, and then Ding Hao and the six had to walk to the secret base 30 kilometers away.

To be honest, walking 30 kilometers in the dark area is thousands of times more difficult than the four Tang monks studying scriptures in the west.

In addition to the ubiquitous poisonous quagmire, the biggest threat in the Dark Zone is the extremely dangerous mutated creatures here. If the average strength of the mutant creatures in the transition line of the dark zone is one line higher than that of the mutant creatures in the ordinary area, then the monsters in the dark zone are all bosses, and they are all weirdos who are difficult to fight and kill!

In the case of ghouls, the ghouls in the Dark Zone are not the types of Night Demons or Ghoul Lords that are often encountered elsewhere, but are a new breed of green flames burning all over their bodies.

This new breed of ghoul has great strength, extremely agile movements, extremely lethality, the flames on the body have a strong burn, radiation and toxin effects, not to mention hand-to-hand combat, as long as you are close to this monster ten meters away, you will receive strong radiation damage, and this guy will also attack from a distance, and the small fireballs thrown out are accurate and ruthless, and can knock off one-third of the shield value at once.

However, compared to the extremely powerful attack and movement ability, this ghoul's defense is obviously not enough, and before he could jump for a while, he was broken by Ding Hao's legs with a strafing shot from a plasma rifle, and then torn it into several pieces with thermal bombardment.

The corpse of the dead green fire ghoul suddenly rose into a large flame, and when the flames were extinguished, only a few bones and a handful of gray-white embers remained on the ground.

"Again! We did the same when we fought the Shadow Council patrols in the Transition Line, a cloud of green fire rising and a skeleton left in the armor. Looking at the strange changes of the green fire ghouls, Fan Tao couldn't help but say.

"Maybe ......" Ding Hao suddenly had a crazy thought: "Maybe it's not the living who are fighting with you, but these ghouls?" ”

"Impossible." Fan Tao shook his head: "Those are all professional soldiers, they can communicate, they can talk, they can use electronic devices, they can't be ghouls." ”

"Okay, let's go deeper." Ding Hao looked at the indicator on the plasma rifle, which showed that there was 76% of the battery left, and it was obvious that there was no need to replace the energy battery for the time being. "Maybe the answer lies in our destination."

Perhaps because it is located in the Dark Zone, the location of the Nashville base is very clearly marked from the hard drive pulled from the previous Shadow Council base, which is just below the large stadium in the north of the city, and was built 65 years ago, although I don't know what it was built here for.

Because they had to avoid the ubiquitous mutant creatures, it took Ding Hao and the six of them a whole day to cover the 30 kilometers, and finally found the gymnasium that hid the secret base at noon the next day. This base is obviously about to be abandoned, and there are only two guards at the huge entrance, at first Ding Hao and the six people thought that there was some ambush here, and they hid in the dark and observed it with a drone for a long time, only to find that there was really no one here.

"Could it be that this place is empty?" Looking at the almost blank scene on the tablet screen, everyone is thinking with question marks.

"I feel like there's still something in there, or there won't be anyone guarding the door." Ding Hao expressed his opinion, "Since they don't have many guards, why don't we just go in and have a look?" ”

"What if it's a trap?" Li Huatian asked rhetorically.

"If it's a trap, then kill it from inside." Facing Li Huatian's question, Fan Tao smiled: "By the way, judging from my previous combat experience, these soldiers of the Shadow Council are relatively durable, and it is difficult to kill with one shot, so keep this in mind when fighting." ”

"Well, since there's no better way, let's get started." Looking at the five eager companions next to him, Li Huatian could only nod and agree to this action: "Zhang Yi, we are approaching from both sides, and you are here to cover us." ”

"No problem." Zhang Yi pulled the bolt of the gun, and the bullet was loaded.

With the help of optical camouflage cloaks, five translucent personnel quietly walked down the crumbling asphalt road towards the stadium entrance in front of them, where the two Shadow Council soldiers were unaware of the impending danger and remained very intently staring ahead.

Looking at these two guards, and then connecting with the current environment, Ding Hao always felt that these two people did not look like living people, if you compared, these two guards were more like robots, or simply resurrected corpses.

But whatever they are, they're slowly working on it after they die.

After taking his position, Li Huatian sent a message to Zhang Yi in the distance, and in the next second, a jujube core-type electromagnetic rifle bullet hit the left shoulder of the guard on the right with a straight crystal blue trail, almost tearing it in half, and the broken shoulder flew out ten meters away with a complete arm, and the whole guard was also knocked to the ground, and a green flame rose from him.

Then a terrifying scene unfolded, the guard, who was almost half knocked out of his chest, actually slowly got up from the ground by himself, and then raised the weapon in his hand to aim at Zhang Yi's position.

The stiff, sluggish movements, and the green slime slowly flowing from the wound made it clear that the guard was no longer human. (To be continued.) )
