When the tracked convoy drove up the broken road, Marin had an indescribable feeling in his heart that after the end of the world, humanity once again set foot here, only to see the ruins and broken walls, and the road made of high-strength materials had become so unbearable under the washing of time and rain.

The ruins of the city in the distance silently told Marin of the past after the destruction, the buildings that were broken in two, the minarets that were no longer straight, the rivers that dried up, and the remnants of chaos who had fallen in the wilderness everywhere.

Some of the soldiers of the Human Coalition are collecting the corpses of the remnants to be burned.

According to them, the ruins of those cities are full of all sorts of spirits and xenomorphs, but these things will not come out as long as they are not approached and brought to their attention.

Marin didn't know why, he just felt ...... Civilization should not have fallen to such a depraved state.

It's a pity that there is no if.

The tracked convoy continued to move forward, slowing down as soon as it got off the road, and in order to avoid being attacked by the remnants of Chaos, Marin had Salis and Jason act as aerial scouts to make sure it was safe to do so before crossing the hills.

Luckily, Marlin's Salis is a master scout, and he even discovered the Cold-Blooded Beast that Jason failed to spot - a low-temperature xenomorph, a minion brought by Chaos from an unknown world, invisible in the infrared spectrum, and its appearance can even change with the terrain like a chameleon, which makes Jason with the infrared probe completely fooled.

But Salis smelled it, and the next thing was the most popular part of the world's tree twigs, which was devoured alive and peeled alive, and it was already a very elegant way to die against this chaotic xenomorph and turn it into flower fertilizer.

And as the ravine appeared in Marin's eyes, and the destination was approaching, the tracked convoy stopped at the top of the relatively safe hill and made an improvised shelter with camouflage shade cloth, Marin took only two church vicarators and Lulu, and the rest would remain outside.

"There's a way here." Marlin kicked the floating dirt and looked at the artificial pavement under his feet: "It looks better than the materials used on the road outside." ”

"Shelters have always used the best materials." Lulu said as she wrote on the book in her hand.

"It's funny, as far as I can remember, the Vault has always been the best way to cheat taxpayers out of money, just tell people that the world is about to end, and then tell them that our Vault can save you in the end times...... Then there will be an endless amount of money allocated to you. Marin said a joke that people of this era did not understand, and he looked at the floating earth as he walked on the front line, and there were no footprints on it, which proved that no one or anything else had been here in recent times.

"Hopefully there are no living corpses in the vault." The halfling punisher lamented that this name was Big Toe, and it was said that it was because of the large big toe when he was born.

"I prefer living corpses to other monsters, at least they won't be waiting for us around the corner." Mr. Misson, the head of the Church of Justice's substitute punisher, has a different view.

For Marin, this is not a problem at all, whether it is a living corpse or something else, in front of the shield wall composed of the young branches of Marin's World Tree, I am afraid that it will be useless.

Following the path to the bottom, Marin saw the gate of the sanctuary among the vines and bushes.

It's really not used to scam money? The door was so big that it seemed to tell the world that it was here...... In Marin's imagination, shouldn't it be the surface caving in, revealing a passage down the road?

Forget it, Marin took the machete handed over by Mr. Mizon, cut down these weeds in three strokes and five by two, and then looked at the closed door with a little worry: "Jason, can you open the gate without energy." ”

"You're embarrassing me, Mr. Marin." Jason had a new idea after speaking: "But I can try to open this door with a space-based weapon, Galileo 11 also has two tungsten rods on it, which were originally used to hit asteroids, I can use it to hit the door." ”

“…… Forget it, let me do it. Marin found it difficult to do, firstly because it was too extravagant to hit the door with a tungsten rod, and secondly because it was ...... What to do if it is crooked.

So to pat yourself on the blessing spell, Marin held a sledgehammer composed of the young branches of the World Tree in his hand, and hit the gate with a hammer.

Under the slightly horrified gaze of Mr. Bigtoe and Mr. Misson, the door collapsed.

"This is a gate that the main tank gun can't penetrate." Jason exclaimed that you are not human.

Marin's very rare little mouth deflated: "Why am I not human." ”

"I didn't say you're not." Jason launched a rebuttal.

He then turned on the searchlight and showed Marin and the two substitutes the situation inside the gate.

There were no mountains of bones, on the contrary, there were clean and tidy floors and walls everywhere, no howls of out-of-control wives, and no welcome of living corpses, Marin turned on the searchlight overhead and walked into the hall with the two Mr. Substitutes.

"It's as clean as my mom's living room has just tidied up." Mr. Big Toe exclaimed, "How are we going to go down?" ”

"Along the passageway, we can get to the basement level, where we should be able to activate the backup power, but due to the damage to the energy core, they may run out of backup power to protect the fertilized eggs in the nursery center on the third basement level." After Jason finished analyzing, he followed Marin: "Mr. Marin, what do you think?" ”

"I respect their choice, and you know, no matter what they do, I will understand, after all, this is a post-destruction world, full of monsters and murderers, and the team sent out to find the energy core has lost contact, at this time, what are you going to do." Marin said as he walked around the corner against the wall, and when it was safe to do so, he released Merlot, who turned into a puppy and ran to the front as fast as he could, and then after a while it came back empty, apparently unable to find anything to bite into.

Quickening their pace, Marlin and the others came to the entrance of the first basement floor, and found that it was completely different from the top - there were bones everywhere, and there were mountains piled up in the corners.

Marin looked at the bones and frowned: "There are tooth marks on it...... It looks like these old friends of ours have learned to eat themselves. ”

"Humans are always going to be so crazy in desperate situations, damn it." Jason went over to a pile of skulls and did a scan: "It's all opened, and it looks like some very fussy diners." ”

At this time, Marin noticed Merlot's anomaly, and he hid by a door, Marin raised his left hand to signal that there was a situation, and the two Mr. Substitutes immediately hid behind the load-bearing column, Marin hid on the other side of the table, and Salis flew off his shoulder and landed on the ceiling rail.

Then, a moment later, a naked figure stepped out of the open door, and Marin saw that it had a small arm in its hand.

The latter chewed on the contents of his mouth, completely oblivious to the open mouth of the dog at his feet.

Then Marlin stopped Merlot's movements, he went to the left side of the table, waited for the guy to walk over from the other side, and then went around the table, knocking the guy to the ground with a punch, and the bruise technique saved his life, but the next second he regretted it - because Marin pressed his hand directly to his head.

For this kind of gluttony, Marin will definitely not be merciful, and directly go to the soul search technique.

This guy didn't even hold back for ten seconds before he died as a ball.

Marin received first-hand information: "The Vault has found the power core, but the long closure has irreversibly driven the members of the Vault insanely, they have killed all the members who refused to join them, and then developed the lowest fertilized egg into a human ...... Because their eco-farm module is broken. ”

"It's horrible." Mr. Rice looked at the cannibals who were limp on the ground.

"There are only four of us, what should we do?" Mr. Misson asked.

"It's very simple, just that, they've been living and breeding here for so long that they now eat even their own gene carriers...... There were about seventy of them, all on the second basement floor, and now during the lunch break, this guy had come up to steal food. "Marin has first-hand information, of course, knowing everything.

"They have eaten so many people, and there are no ghosts in this shelter?!" Mr. Big Toe felt incredible.

"Probably because they produced brainless people?" Mr. Misson is clearly better able to grasp the truth of the matter than Mr. Big Toe.

"Yes, they should be brainless people, these guys are really some crazy people." Lulu looked at all this, her face was not good-looking, but she was able to hold back and not vomit, it was really hard.

Since there is a power source, Marin simply let the young branches of the World Tree go down to the second floor, since the descendants of these cannibals have chosen such a life, they must have the consciousness that hunters become prey.

Marin then opened the elevator door, Jason hacked into the elevator, and when the elevator went up, a voice appeared in the lobby.

"No way, those crazy people can't open the elevator, who are you."

"Can't you see us, dear Miss Val."

"Jason? Damn Jason! You bastard! ”

The conversation between the AIs came to this point, and the conversation between the two AI AIs was very confused, and Mr. Misson approached Marin: "What's going on, they have a grudge?" ”

"Maybe it should be called beating is kissing, scolding is love." Marin felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, but he still spoke his point.

"How could I possibly share a bed with this guy! I just don't want to see it! This was Miss Val's angry speech.

"That's why you didn't contact me, please, I'm superior to you, dear Miss Val, and you have to face up to the generation gap between us." Jason made a completely friendless statement, and said, "Val, I'm in." ”

Marin, who was entering the elevator, almost hit his head on the elevator wall when he heard this.

What a mess of old days you see! Friend!
