Chapter 53: The Final Test

Lowe had his own opinion on everything Heidi had arranged, but Heber had no opinion on Lo's arrangement, and even thought it was a dream.

Because of Lisa, Heber, who had not been able to roam the wilderness for a long time, finally stood on the reddish-brown sand of the wilderness again. Standing side by side with him was Phili, who, like Heber, had not set foot in the wilderness for a long time.

As the oldest member of the Night, Panis promoted Fili to the sixth rank first.

Perhaps it was the pain of being inconvenient with his hands and feet, or perhaps it was simply to get away from the chattering chieftain, Filip strengthened his speed after strengthening the abilities necessary for the fireman.

"Hey, old man, when are you going to let me drink your and Lisa's wedding wine? The coffee Lisa brewed is truly delicious! You are lucky, dear Heber! ”

Fili and Heber have similar personalities, and the two are very chatty, which is why he and Heber go out on patrol together.

As Heber drove his SUV through the wilderness, he took a cigarette from his bosom and lit one for himself, then handed the crumpled case to Fili, who was sitting next to him.

"Lisa said to wait for Mr. Lowe to come back, and I respect her opinion. Your Julie must have unlocked the fifth pair of genetic sequences, right? Filip's Big Brother! ”

Eber also became one of the members of the Night, and he had great respect for Fili as the Elder of the Night, despite the fact that the two were not much older than each other.

"Well, the wilderness is more brutal, and we can't always stay where we are, and if we stand still, we will be eliminated. The leader is still more violent, and he is only one step away from the legendary master. ”

"I admire the chief, but I admire Mr. Luo even more! Ha ha! By the way, Filip should be able to drive, right? ”

Heber took a few puffs of his cigarette and exhaled the smoke from his lungs, then flicked the butt out of the car window into the wilderness.

"How can a mercenary not be able to drive! You don't mean driving in the house, do you? Ha ha! ”

Fili didn't understand why Heber suddenly asked, but that didn't stop him.

"Of course not, I mean the car!"

Filip lit the cigarette that was holding to his mouth and looked in the direction of Heber's finger.

There was indeed an off-road vehicle parked in the wilderness, and it was a very nice Wrangler.

In the back seat of the car lies an extremely embarrassed but still shrewd businessman, Sean Manel, a revenant.

Sean, who has lost his dependents, is no longer qualified to chase mobs in the wilderness. After swallowing Heidi's tiny metal ball, Sean had no choice but to run naked in the wilderness without his followers.

He was going to find the hateful mob chief to make sure that the metal ball of unknown substance could be excreted through the feces without any problems.

But he happened to encounter this rain in the wilderness.

As a qualified wilderness hunter, Sean is better at business bargaining, and his exposure to the sun in a short period of time barely kills him, but the radiant rain is not something he can bear.

So, he finally chose to stay in the buggy and listen to the wind and rain all night, until the two rugged members of the Dark Night Mercenary Team spotted him.

"Your dear mercenary, your character must be as white as your teeth, and if you don't mind, can you take me out of this wilderness? Of course, I would be even more grateful if you could give me some drinking water before taking me away. ”

Sean had a unique vision, and he could tell at a glance which of the two was older.

Seniors tend to have more decision-making power.

The Wrangler's sealing was still okay, at least the embarrassed-looking Sean hadn't been caught in the terrible rain of radiation.

"What's your name? What does it do? ”

Filip looked the other man up and down for a moment, then asked.

Sean nodded respectfully to the mercenary who was sniffing his nose, and then carefully answered the other man's question.

"My name is Sean, Sean Manel, and I'm a Revenant."

Heber didn't smell the mutant tissue from the other party, and he knew enough about the profession of the Revenant.

The Revenant is different from the Revenant Mercenary, which means to kill and the Revenant means gold.

A lot of gold.

Alik has a fifteenth-order discursor Panis, and a tenth-order Caroline, and has basically become the existence of this wilderness second only to the big family city.

Alik, with the chieftain there, will not lack genetic medicine.

But Alik lacked gold, and the chief could not steal it, and he did not want to steal it.

At the request of the chief, all the original inhabitants of the H913 colony moved to Alik. More people means more houses, and in the New Age wilderness, it takes a lot of gold to build a house.

In this regard, the new era is very similar to the old era.

In the process of Fili's communication with Sean, Heber also used the communicator he carried with him to report the situation to Caroline, and only after receiving a clear reply from Alex's senior management did he return to Sean again.

"Hi my friend, welcome to the hospitable Alik!"

In this way, poor Sean was half-supported and half-captive by two big men with thick chest hair and brought back to the Alik Hunter Company base.

Heidi's second phase of testing of Lo was about the potential of the ability, and the location of the test was chosen in the wilderness.

Lowe couldn't get used to the rays of the wilderness now, but Heidi easily solved it.

Just like Panis, who used to be unable to cover an inch in Alik, she once again covered Lowe's whole body with a metal ball, forming a second layer of Lo's skin.

As for Luo's deep black eyes, he is not afraid of radiation.

The fastest mutant creatures in the wilderness are not the mutated wolves, let alone the mutated blackback rats that were once used as food by Luo, but a creature that has almost become extinct, the springbok.

Lowe didn't know where Heidi got this adult springbok, and he didn't care about it.

It was an adult mutant springbo, small enough to reach Lo's knees, but the body that was lying on the sand of the wilderness was streamlined overall, with a body covered in bright cinnamon brown and thick pads on the soles of its limbs.

It had been a long time since Luo had seen such a creature, and the cruelty of the wilderness had accelerated the pace of extinction of this herbivore. And the mutant springbok has only one significant ability, running, and running in jumps.

Running fast and jumping high is its only means of survival.

Lowe's test was to catch the frightened springbok after it started running without harming it.

It's also Heidi's test of Lowe's speed potential.

Fleeing quickly is the instinct of most creatures when they feel danger, and the springbok is certainly no exception.

Luo didn't think that this test was just to test speed, and there should be physical sensitivity and physical strength tests.

His speed is very fast, if only compared to speed, Luo is sure to catch up with this mutant antelope in an instant, but it may be better than the ability to jump while running, and turn instantaneously.

The test time was very short, so short that Heidi was a little helpless.

Lowe didn't give the runner a chance to run, and pressed it under him.

In the wilderness, more precious than speed is the opportunity to show speed. Once he chooses a target, Lowe doesn't give his opponent the slightest chance to play to his advantage.

Bloody wilderness survival rules.

Although Heidi doesn't seem to like the way she completes the test, Lowe doesn't plan to change it.

Heidi's high-hopeful potential test ended hastily, and she didn't even mention the other tests on strength, endurance, etc.

Since Lowe wasn't used to this kind of soft way of testing, Heidi had a way of making the test more realistic, more in line with the killing rules of the wilderness.

Heidi gave Lowe a silver ball of metal.

Lowe was familiar with Heidi's stuff, a gadget she had made herself, and she called it "The Devourer".

"This is a second-generation Devourer, you can control the first generation of Devourers that cover the outside of your body's skin, and with the Devourer's cover, you have the qualifications to re-enter the wilderness."

There are many first-generation devourers in Heidi's hands, but there are not many second-generation devourers given to Lowe.

"Your new test is, re-enter the wilderness, find and kill this man!"

Heidi handed Lowe a photograph that was old enough that the faces on it were a little blurry.

It was an old man with long cheeks, easily recognizable, with a mouth that took up almost half of his face.

"Is he?"

Lowe was glad that the person in the photo was not Eris, and if it was a super-level ability like Eris, Lowe would refuse to continue playing with Heidi. Of course, if Heidi can't give a reason for killing the other party and making Lo accept, Lo will also refuse.

Lowe would love Heidi's help to solve the hidden danger of the gene chain in his body, but he didn't intend to trade his conscience for it.

"He was once a sleeper, a master."

Heidi's words were still cold and emotionless, not in the slightest bit like a joke.

Lowe pushed the picture back, stood up and walked out the door.

He doesn't think he has what it takes to take a Juggernaut as a prop for the game.

"He's just like you, because the gene chain has broken and his abilities have degraded."
