"Please! Spare me! Everything is yours here! What more could you want? Water? Food? Woman? If only you spare my life! I'll get you all of them! ”

The brawny man in power armor collapsed on the ground and pleaded, trying to move his body backwards. One of his arms, along with his armor, was severed by Zigan, and the gushing blood dragged a scarlet streak of blood on the ground.

He was originally the master of the city under his feet, and he had more than 300 junior brothers under his command; If you want to make a living within a hundred miles of this, you have to ask his opinion first, and all materials, food, including women, must be enjoyed and disposed of by him first, just like the emperor of the soil in this area.

Until the appearance of this man in front of him.

This man, like a visitor from outside the world, suddenly came, broke into the strong man's base without saying a word, and in a very short time, slaughtered his three hundred men, and then cut down the strong man who had already put on the power armor.

The man slowly approached the struggling strong man, his face was indifferent, and the long knife in his hand that was full of electronic components and flashed with a strange blue light was dripping with the blood of the strong man.

The armor's AI (artificial intelligence) emits a faint electronic voice: "The armor is badly damaged......... The enemy analyzer will not start...... The armor of the right arm is detached from ...... Damaged energy core...... 0.2% of propeller power remaining...... Recommended Dress Like...... Escape from the danger zone as soon as possible. ”

Escape? How else can I escape? The strong man became more and more desperate, he really couldn't figure it out, although the power armor on his body, although it was an earthen product assembled from parts found in the garbage heap, but with this before, he had been able to sweep away all the surrounding forces and enter the city under his feet.

However, this strange man who fell from the sky, with only a strange knife, not only killed all three hundred of his men, but also easily cut through the armor that the earthen bullets did not penetrate. Thinking about it, the strong man really didn't understand where he provoked this plague god.

"Please! Spare me a dog's life! You've killed all of my people, what more do you want? Where did we offend you? ”

The man paused for a moment, then moved forward again, slowly and decisively: "You shouldn't be here... It shouldn't have been made this the way it is...... It's too messy...... No traces of the previous ......"

The long knife that flashed blue light was raised again, and a fierce light appeared in the man's eyes: "Here...... It used to be my home with her, and if she passed by and didn't recognize her, she wouldn't have come back......"

The strong man looked at the long knife raised by the man, and was extremely angry: "Crazy! You're a lunatic! ”

He originally thought that his subordinates had offended this man and suffered this catastrophe, but he didn't expect it to be for such a ridiculous reason? He didn't even understand what this man was trying to do!

Beg? It's definitely useless, begging for mercy with a madman is like playing the harp to a cow. The strong man gritted his teeth and prepared to fight to the death.

"Go to Nima's! Die! ”

The strong man scolded angrily, and the power armor sensed the mood swings of the wearer, and the launchers on his back and legs spewed faint fire. 0.2% of the power, but enough to make the heavy armor bounce off the ground, the strong man raised his only remaining hand, a hidden switch in the arm armor activated, and a rocket shot out.

The man didn't back down, swinging his knife forward, the blade emitting an eerie blue glow that was far more dazzling than the thruster's fire.

"Drink!!"

……

Three months later, thirty miles north of Lingdu, in the middle of a desert.

A bulging sand dune suddenly exploded from the inside out, and the startled Rayson sat up from the dune, and this sudden movement temporarily frightened the ghouls who were approaching him.

After coming out of the spiritual capital, Rayson relied on his own modified watch radiation monitor to avoid the radiation pollution zone all the way, and unknowingly walked into the desert. He walked without stopping, until he was exhausted to the extreme, and slept on the ground in the desert, not even knowing that the sand had buried him. Now his face. The stubble and hair were covered with sand and dirt, and he looked like a bum.

Sweeping around, looking at the few ghouls around him, Rayson was also a little glad that he woke up. If they were to be chopped alive on the spot, it would have capsized in the gutter.

"...... You can't get a good night's sleep. Rayson stood up and shook off the dust, and took a long cloth bag he was carrying in his hand.

Throwing off the bundled fabric, Rayson moved his muscles and bones and took the initiative to meet these human-like creatures. The object he waved in his hand also emitted a strange blue light.

Rayson tried to avoid such unnecessary physical exertion, and after more than ten days of hiking, there was little food and water left on his body.

Fortunately, I finally saw some people today. At the end of the desert there is a nameless town, and at the same time, two ghouls appear.

However, these two are much safer than the ones that Rayson packed. After all, they were dead, and two dried corpses were hung from a dead tree at the entrance of the town, swaying from time to time under the scorching sun, with the howling wind and sand.

Undoubtedly, this is a warning to strangers. But Rayson didn't feel anything infiltrating, but wanted to laugh. It was a walk around the town, surrounded by a simple thorny hedge, no fortifications, and no automatic turrets or anything.

Ghouls, on the other hand, are just humans who have lost their minds due to radiation contamination and are left with only the predatory instinct, and at most their severely ulcerated skin looks a little scary, as long as they are not infested in groups, they are nothing to be feared by Rayson. The fact that this town would pestle such a low-level scary method on the faΓ§ade shows that they themselves are weak.

Looking at his watch, Rayson confirmed that the radiation levels around the town were normal, and then jumped over the thorny fence. At this moment, the sandstorm began to rage, and the town was shrouded in whistling yellow sand, and the only sound of the wind seemed to be uninhabited.

But the sixth sense tells Rayson that there is more than one gaze on him.

Pushing the door in, the smell of rotting wood came to my face. Rayson glanced around the room, and saw that the layout looked like a tavern, and there were still many people, because of Rayson's sudden intrusion, the chatting stopped abruptly, all of them looked vigilant, and a few people's hands involuntarily touched the knife at their waists, obviously not welcoming the stranger who suddenly appeared.

"Excuse me, take shelter from the sand." Rayson ignored them and walked to the bar and sat down.

In the bar, a middle-aged man with a big beard was quite calm, he squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the face in front of him, but the girl standing next to him looked a little cramped, and kept quietly moving back, not daring to look at Rayson.

The bearded man stared at Rayson for a long time: "This friend...... How did you get in here? ”

Rayson shrugged, "I didn't see anyone stopping me. ”

When the bearded man heard this, he immediately looked at the girl next to him with some displeasure. The girl trembled, and immediately lowered her head: "I saw a sandstorm outside...... Let the sentry men withdraw first......"

The bearded man suddenly became a little angry, stared at the girl, opened his mouth for a long time, and finally only sighed heavily.

In addition to a rucksack, Rayson also has a long cloth bag. The bearded man stared at him, still wary in his eyes: "The ...... you brought What's that? ”

Rayson glanced at his cloth bag: "Nothing, a stick, a mallet." ”

"Mallet?"

"yes." Rayson said casually: "The world is so chaotic, you always have something to defend yourself when you go out." ”

The bearded man couldn't help but laugh, and even the few drinkers who were staring at Rayson smiled contemptuously. Can you defend yourself with a stick? Where did this kid come from?

The surrounding drinkers relaxed their vigilance slightly, but their greedy eyes remained fixed on the back of Rayson sitting safely.

"Friend, there are not many fresh faces here, where do they come from?" The bearded man said again.

"Lingdu." Rayson said nonchalantly.

As soon as these words came out, the drinkers who had been staring at it talked a lot.

"Lingdu? Isn't that the territory of the Boulder Gang? ”

"Yes! They were known for eating people without spitting out bones, the men were sold to slave traders, and the women were left to play for themselves. Where did this kid get out of? ”

At this time, one of them lowered his voice and said, "Do you remember?" Half a month ago, wasn't there a group of nomadic merchants passing by? Let's ...... them Before that happened, they could have mentioned that the Boulder Gang didn't know who they had offended, and they were slaughtered all night without leaving a single living mouth. And the other party, just one person! ”

"Really? It can't be this kid, right? ”

A few whisperers looked up again and looked at Rayson.

One of them looked at it for a long time and sneered: "How is it possible? This kid is just a mallet, it's better than us, the Boulder Gang has power armor, and there are more than 300 people, how can it be that they were slaughtered by a single horse? I guess it was a big force that wanted to grab the territory of the Lingdu that did it. ”

"That's right."

"Hehe, then we'll ...... later"

Several people discussed, looking at Rayson with meaningful eyes from time to time. The bearded man glared at them, and a few of them quickly shut up.

Seeing that Rayson didn't react, he didn't seem to hear it, so the bearded man put his mind at ease and looked at Rayson again: "You're from Lingdu?" Where is the nearest ...... What do you think? ”

Rayson seemed to be thoughtful, but also seemed to be careless: "It's good, it's the latest there...... It's pretty clean. ”

Clean? The bearded man was a little confused, this is different from the situation of the Lingdu he knows, not to mention the current world, how else is worthy of the word "pure".

This kid probably just passed by the gate of the spiritual capital.

The bearded man didn't bother to talk to Rayson anymore, but Rayson began to talk: "You are here...... Does anyone often pass by? ”

As soon as these words came out, the bearded man was suddenly stunned, and the girl next to him looked at Lei Sen worriedly, and the surrounding drinkers became nervous again.

"Occasionally, there will be one or two people...... What do you want? The bearded man's gaze turned cold.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask you." Rayson took out a yellowed photo from his arms: "Have you seen it...... The woman in the photo? ”

The bearded man took the photo, and the woman in the photo was young and beautiful, with long black hair and a Peugeot face, holding the hand of the man next to her. The man standing next to her, with neat short hair and a clean face, also looked a little like Rayson in front of him.

If the person in front of him wasn't so vicissitudes.

Flipping through the photo, there is a beautiful font on the back.

"The only thing I look forward to in this world is your gentleness - Su Ling"

The woman's face was unfamiliar. The bearded man shook his head with certainty: "I haven't seen it." ”

Rayson took back the photo, his face as usual, obviously not surprised by such an answer. Seeing this, the bearded man said with a serious face: "Young man...... This year...... Don't look for anyone who can't find it...... Maybe it's ......."

After a moment of silence, the bearded man said again: "Don't be sad, I'll invite you to a drink." ”

"Oh? Thank you in advance. ”

"Zoe, go." The bearded man called out to the girl next to him.

But the girl Zoe seemed to be very entangled, and stood in place with a embarrassed face for a long time, before she took out a bottle of wine from the back kitchen under the pressure of a cold gaze.

The bearded man placed a dirty, yellowed wine glass in front of Rayson. The wine was only half full, and Rayson couldn't wait to take a big sip. The spicy liquid entered his throat, but he didn't see the slightest discomfort on Rayson's face, but he still slurped, savoring the aftertaste.

Immediately, a satisfied exclamation: "One more ......"

The bearded man was a little surprised, he knew best how strong this wine was, but he didn't dare to let this wine stay on his tongue for half a second longer, and the man in front of him actually drank most of the glass in one breath ....... just like that?

"Young man, is such a big addiction? How long has it been since you've been drinking? ”

"How long?" Rayson's gaze gradually deepened: "Probably...... It's been fifty years. ”

"Huh. Ghost Letter! ”

The bearded man was joking with Rayson and continued to refill Rayson's wine. Although the stubble on the face looks a little vicissitudes, if you look closely, that face is definitely not more than thirty years old.

Zoe looked at Rayson, who was binge-drinking, and the tangled and worried on his face became more and more obvious, but Rayson didn't seem to notice it, and didn't even look at her at all.

There was less and less liquid in the bottle, and the gaze of the surrounding drinkers at Rayson became more and more intriguing. The bearded man's gaze gradually turned cold, and he kept observing Rayson's reaction, but the wind outside the tavern had stopped, and Rayson's face was still as usual, and he didn't show any drunkenness.

Rayson put down his glass and got up: "Thank you for the wine, I should go." ”

As soon as he turned around, a cold bearded voice suddenly came from behind him.

"After drinking, don't you leave some money to buy wine?"

Rayson turned around, only to see that the bearded man had an extra bow in his hand, aimed at him.
