The next morning, at eight o'clock, it was still a little overcast.

With the cool breeze blowing from time to time, most of the people who hang out or work on the streets wear long-sleeved jackets.

Zhang Feng glanced at the window a few times and walked out of the house.

Downstairs, they have already packed their cars, filled up gasoline, and can set off at any time to join the squadron leader.

"Team Zhang is here.." When Haozi saw Zhang Feng coming out of the villa, he went back to the kitchen and took out a large piece of dried meat, as well as a glass of fresh milk specially bought from the city.

That's the usual breakfast.

It's just that milk may not be available in general.

But the Evolution Beast has basically all the jerky.

Zhang Feng took a few bites and felt that the taste of the braised meat was not bad, a little spiced beef jerky.

After another sip of milk, there was a sweet smell in the mouth, without a fishy smell.

"Their mother and son helped us make jerky yesterday." Haozi turned around and helped Zhang Feng open the car door, "I didn't expect her cooking skills to be so good.. It's just that his girlfriend came over this morning and has already picked up the mother and son, and it is estimated that work is now being arranged."

"Just settle in." Zhang Feng got into the car, leaned on the back seat, and while eating, he looked at the big gold watch given by others on his wrist, "Let's go after packing up, there is still an hour, arrive early, and don't let the squadron leader and them wait for a long time." ”

The scheduled departure time is 8 o'clock in the morning.

But there is nothing wrong with going early and arriving early.

It's just that I don't have to wait.

But when he and the others went out of the street to a small factory five miles outside the city, the squadron leader and they had already arrived.

Now it's a rough sight.

They have twelve off-road vehicles with buckets.

Two large trucks.

As the squadron leader of the third-level evolutionary, he is leading fifty fighters in their squadron.

Outside of it is the third squad, the captain of the second-level evolutionary. There are 10 team members.

There is also a fourth squad, and the captain is also a second-level evolutionary. There are 10 team members.

"Team Zhang is late!"

The squadron leader stood in front of everyone, and when he saw the car belonging to the fifth squad coming, he greeted him with a bold smile.

Zhang Feng looked and saw that he was a strong man of about thirty, with short hair, heavy leather shoes, loose trousers, and a gray vest, which was tightened by the muscles all over his body.

This is a 'man of strength'.

"Shall we go?" Zhang Feng got out of the car, took the precious chewing gum handed by the squadron leader, and nodded to the two captains next to him.

"It should be just four of us." The squadron leader smiled and chatted with Zhang Feng and the others, and he didn't mean to go, but waited for the other teams.

Because this kind of 'business trip' is a beautiful difference.

As long as the official personnel in the city go out, they will take care of food and housing, and the city will also give themselves and others a subsidy of one crystal a day.

It was also with such a high salary that the people from the third and fourth teams rushed over together.

However, the second team is exploring a new city, and the daily income is greater than one spirit stone per person, so they should not come.

Other than that, the first team was too far away for anyone to notice.

However, there is a problem with the communication now, and the squadron leader is not sure, so he waits for a while.

We waited a little longer, chatting together and watching the combatants inspect cars and firearms.

When the time is 7:40.

After the squadron leader saw that there were indeed no other squads coming, he didn't have any nonsense, and directly signaled the convoy to set off, aiming at Liucheng.

And on the way to Liucheng, Zhang Feng also recalled the 'communication problem' in this world, which is indeed a difficult problem.

Because of the heavy rain that fell four years ago, it corroded a lot of communication equipment.

Coupled with the crystal energy in the air, most of the communication equipment is also disabled.

The most common are telephones and mobile phones.

On the day of the disaster, they all became useless scrap metal.

Four years have passed, and humanity has not been repaired.

However, in the 'capital' in the heart of the Central Plains, some evolutionists, abilities, and scientists have been united to create a new way of radio communication by borrowing crystal energy.

Named 'Base Station Crystal Tower'

This mode is like a telegraph and a radio, and through the crystal energy diffused in the air, it achieves a new purpose of communication.

Nowadays, every big city has such a base station crystal tower.

It is eight meters tall and has a radius of two meters, and is composed entirely of crystal fusion.

Standing in front of the crystal tower, coupled with the operation of the staff, you can communicate with a crystal tower thousands of miles away, and transmit the sight and sound to another crystal tower, so as to achieve a 'three-dimensional' communication of refraction.

At present, each city also exchanges its own information in this way.

But every time the communication is consumed, the crystal energy replenished is a lot of numbers.

As well as the construction of crystal towers, it also requires the consumption of nearly 100,000 crystals, resulting in the fact that only some large cities now have crystal towers.

Other cities still use the old-fashioned way of sending letters, or going to find someone to meet in person.

Of course, there are also flying pigeons to pass the message, and adventurers run along the way.

However, the former is easy to be eaten by the Evolution Beasts in the air.

The latter may also die on the road, or secretly open it, and take the money and run away.

This is a regular occurrence.

This shows the importance of the crystal tower.

At least for confidential documents, the first choice for safe transportation is the crystal tower.

And now with the passage of time.

When the convoy drove in the gloomy sky for a morning, and arrived at the boundary of Liucheng, which was nearly 600 miles away, it did not encounter any crisis.

Moreover, the highway road into the city ahead has been almost cleared by the pioneer exploration team in the past few days.

Come over today.

Everyone lined up in a convoy and walked along the cleared highway towards the outskirts of Liucheng.

Zhang Feng also glanced out on the road and saw that there were dilapidated car wrecks on both sides of the road, as well as some messy bones, dry and black bloodstains, and weeds drilled out of the cracks in the ground.

"A little excited.." Haozi, who was standing in the skylight position, was cautiously looking around, including the words in his mouth that did not stop all the way.

"New place .." The wrench sniffed the smell of stale rust in the air, but he became more and more cautious and did not talk to Haozi who was chattering next to him.

At such a high speed, there is only the sound of the 'boom' engine.

The convoy slowly approached the outskirts of the city, on a dilapidated street, close to the city area.

Brake—

When the convoy stopped, the only engine sound died out.

With the occasional sound of the wind blowing back and forth between the buildings in front of them, everyone looked at the dilapidated and cracked street in front of them, and felt that this place was like a ghost town.

"There should be no survivors in Liucheng.." Hiroko rubbed her hands together, crouched down from the sunroof, returned to the car, and took out her rifle.

Zhang Feng glanced at them a few times, and then looked at a pickup truck in front of him.

There were three men running out of the glass window of the pickup truck, as if they had heard some instructions, and were running in the direction of their own car and that of the other two captains.

"Team Zhang!" After one of them ran to him, he first saluted before saying, "The squadron leader asked Team Zhang to come to the car to discuss the plan to search for supplies." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Feng nodded, got out of the car, and walked to the squadron leader's car.

When I got on the bus, I came to the back compartment of this small conference room, and found a fixed chair to sit down.

Within half a minute, the other two captains arrived.

When the squadron leader saw everyone coming, he looked at the map of Liucheng on the table, and then said to Zhang Feng and the others: "Let's not talk about the far, let's talk about the near." ”

The squadron leader said, pointing to the two-story small shopping mall outside the window, "According to the report of the advance team, there are cosmetics, skin care products, tobacco and alcohol, toiletries, and clothes in this shopping mall. You all know the price of these items, right? ”

"Cosmetics .." When the third captain heard that there might be cosmetics that his wife often spent a lot of money on, he immediately nodded thoughtfully,

"It's all good stuff! I heard that the big merchants in the city are collecting these again...

And I remember the scene when their convoy came to our base city some time ago, and the car door was open, selling some pre-disaster luxury goods... The scene was as lively as a pre-disaster market."

"yes, at that time, a set of skin care products was fried by them to two crystals.." The four captains seemed to feel the same way, and couldn't help but sigh,

"They also put out an advertisement, holding a loudspeaker and shouting something, 'Two hundred brilliant crystals, there is no way for an ordinary person to become an evolutionary. But changing to a hundred sets of skin care products can maintain your beautiful face, so that the strong person you love deeply will fall in love with yourself every day'.... My mother-in-law bought five sets that day."

"How does it feel?" The three captains suddenly turned their heads, revealing expressions that all men understand, and they wanted to study something together.
