Chapter 16: The Origin of the Beast
As Zhao Xiaochuan said, about twenty minutes later, after the two iron-skinned rhinoceros drank the water, they turned around and left the oasis without looking back, and the entire oasis suddenly fell into silence!
Due to the existence of the iron rhinoceros before, the creatures in the original oasis were all frightened away.
The current oasis can almost be said to be empty of a fierce beast!
"Let's go! It's getting dark in about half an hour! Let's hurry into the oasis and settle down first! Zhao Xiaochuan observed the surroundings again and made sure that there was no danger, so he entered the oasis with the hunting team.
As soon as you step into the oasis, the smell of the whole air is refreshed, the smell of humus is completely filtered by the fresh air above the oasis, and even a faint aroma can be felt between the mouth and nose when you breathe.
"The oasis should be safe for the time being, you can go to the river to get water, but don't stay by the river for a long time, you can also go and collect some firewood to make a fire at night to keep warm, we can just set up camp at the bottom of this small hill tonight!"
Everyone knew before setting off that this hunt for two-headed cattle should not be done in a day and a half, so they all brought tents, bedding and other things with them. After hearing Zhao Xiaochuan say that they could set up camp, everyone quickly breathed a sigh of relief.
The day's trek through the wasteland had left everyone a little tired, and the average townsman didn't have any professional tents, just laid out the futon he carried with them, even if he had set up a makeshift nest.
And the group of minions under Zhou Tian's hands, even if they were a little more professional, built four tents neatly in less than a while.
Zhou Tian lived one by himself, his four personal subordinates, two of them one, and the last one of the remaining was actually for Chen Dacheng and Wang Ming!
"Brother Xiaochuan, I see that you don't have many things with you, and you must not have brought a tent either, why don't you squeeze with me and Dacheng tonight?" Wang Ming watched everyone start to act numbly, only Zhao Xiaochuan on the side did not act, and suddenly smiled and invited.
"No need, I'm used to being alone." Zhao Xiaochuan shook his head lightly: "Also, remember to tell Captain Zhou, although under normal circumstances, fierce beasts do not enter the oasis at night, but things in the wasteland are always full of uncertainty, so it is best to send someone to guard it!" ”
After Zhao Xiaochuan finished speaking, he glanced at the tent specially prepared for Wang Ming and Chen Dacheng lightly, and didn't say anything, and directly turned around and walked towards the stream in the middle of the oasis.
"Phew! What the hell is this Zhao Xiaochuan! Isn't it just that you have to live in the wasteland for a few more years? With his small body, I can beat him alone! Looking at the back of Zhao Xiaochuan leaving, Chen Dacheng on the side was suddenly a little disdainful.
"Dacheng, don't underestimate this Zhao Xiaochuan, without him, we may not be able to return to the town alive!" And Wang Ming had a mysterious smile, staring at Zhao Xiaochuan's distant back, not knowing what he was thinking.
........
When the water is clear, there are no fish.
This is Zhao Xiaochuan's first time in the oasis, and his father told him.
The stream water in the oasis is very clear, crystal clear, and even the sand and gravel and aquatic plants in the low river are clearly seen by Zhao Xiaochuan, not to mention the fish inside, even the small shrimp and crabs can't be seen.
However, in this era, if there were really these creatures in the river, it is estimated that they would have turned into fierce beasts long ago.
No one can tell where the beast came from, even Daddy only said that in the old era, the whole world experienced a great cataclysm, and since then the world has suddenly appeared in the world.
At that time, human civilization could be said to be overnight, directly facing the situation of collapse! Countless lands have been occupied by fierce beasts, and although modern weapons can temporarily compete with fierce beasts, the restrictions are too great! Later, only humans who had also undergone mutations in the cataclysm and gained special abilities were barely able to fight the beasts!
Such people are called Adepts!
However, the number of Paranormal is too scarce, and most of them are scattered all over the place, and because the means of communication are gradually failing, they cannot unite together, and can only barely ensure that the human bloodline is maintained. During that time, a large number of humans were reduced to the food of ferocious beasts, which is now known as the "Dark Ages"!
In the Dark Ages, after decades, human beings gradually regained a foothold on the earth, and there were slightly more supernatural people among human beings, and the most important thing is that there were warriors among human beings!
After all, even after decades, the number of supernatural beings is still extremely rare, this kind of existence seems to appear randomly, and everyone's ability is also strong and weak, so strange that it can't form a scale at all! But martial artists are different, as long as there are the right methods and sufficient resources, a large part of human beings can become martial artists through cultivation!
And when a martial artist cultivates to a certain level, he will also have all kinds of magical abilities, and he is extremely powerful!
In this way, the power of humanity has been greatly boosted! Gradually, the surviving humans began to band together to establish the original Vault 1. Since then, mankind has blown the horn of counterattack!
Daddy once said that these fierce beasts encountered on this wasteland near Zhao Xiaochuan were actually just the lowest level of fierce beasts! Including the iron-skinned rhinoceros that was very terrifying to Zhao Xiaotian, it was only the lowest existence among the fierce beasts! If you divide it according to the level that humans give to the fierce beasts, it is the existence of the D+ level.
Like a two-headed cow or something, it's all something that doesn't go into the stream.
Of course, let alone D+, even a D-class fierce beast is already an existence that cannot be provoked for the current Zhao Xiaochuan. And if you want to become a D-class beast, you must enter the stage of "entering alienation", which means "entering alienation"! After entering this stage, the fierce beast will be strengthened by leaps and bounds in terms of wisdom and combat effectiveness! As for more things, even Daddy doesn't know very well.
And those truly terrifying beasts can even practice exercises and manipulate the elements, and have wisdom beyond human beings!
They are the real enemies of mankind!
And Vault 93 was established earlier, and when it was first established, there were many powerful beasts in the vicinity, and there was even no shortage of A-level and even S-level beasts! However, after paying a huge price and sacrificing the lives of countless warriors, the human race finally killed most of the powerful fierce beasts in this vicinity, and then established Vault 93 here. But over the course of the long years that followed, humanity reclaimed more land and built more peripheral shelters!
Vault 93 gradually began to become a relatively remote existence.
However, for a lone hunter like Zhao Xiaochuan who is begging for a living at the bottom, remoteness also means that it is safer, if he is near those more peripheral shelters, then he is really very likely to not survive now!
