Chapter 44: The City of Hope

"Lord Agni, that awakened mutant zombie is here."

"Good job, when we kill the mutant zombies and get the elemental crystals, you will not be able to benefit from it."

There is a special crystal in the body of mutant zombies and mutant creatures that contains all their own power, but only zombies and a few mutated creatures who have awakened their consciousness will condense the crystals, which is also discovered by the people here by accident.

The reason why no one found out in the Jinling base was because almost all the awakened zombies in Jinling were under the control of Mu Mu, and there was no conflict with humans, and the only two awakened zombies that were killed were crocodiles and dark demons, and no one searched for their corpses inch by inch. As for the mutant creatures, there are not many near Jinling, and there are even fewer hunts, but no elemental crystals have been found.

The effect of elemental crystals is very large, and the ability can absorb the energy inside to improve their abilities, and ordinary people who devour crystals also have a probability of awakening the ability, but there is also a probability of mutating into zombies.

When Li Ang walked out of the office building, he happened to meet the team that came to hunt and kill the slender zombies, there were a total of seven of them, except for the one in front of the head, who was estimated to be leading the way, the rest were strong men with big shoulders and round waists, six of them were holding all kinds of weapons, including various firearms, machetes, spears and other cold weapons, and one of them was a big black fat man who was also carrying a huge mace.

The person on the other side naturally saw Li Ang, only to see that his hair was slightly messy, his clothes were full of holes, stained with bloodstains, and he was carrying a long knife, and there was purple-black viscous blood on the long knife, obviously he had just experienced a big battle.

"Boss, it looks like someone has taken the lead." A burly bald head said indignantly.

"This brother, did you kill the mutant zombies inside?" The person known as the boss is a middle-aged man in his thirties, nicknamed Agni, and his body is not the strongest among these people, but being able to be the boss obviously has some strength.

"yes, what's wrong?" When Leon came out, he happened to hear them talking about the elemental crystals, and although he didn't know the specifics, he also speculated.

"Brother is amazing, he dares to hunt mutant zombies single-handedly! Presumably brother, you got the elemental crystal, right, why don't you give your love to my brother? The boss smiled with a smile on his face and a consultative tone, but the others took out their weapons one after another, full of threats!

"What if I don't give it?"

"Brother is too worried, I won't take you in vain", took a rifle from the person next to him: "I'll exchange this with you, this is a good thing, guns can't be found casually." ”

From the other party's words, it can be inferred that most of the elemental crystals are only available to awakened zombies, and what their value is Li Ang doesn't know, but the rarity of awakened zombies Li Ang still knows, even if mutated zombies have crystals, the number will not be too much, it is by no means comparable to a rifle, Li Ang naturally will not agree, not to mention that he has no elemental crystals at all, and there are a lot of buns.

"Get out of the way!" The other party is obviously not good, and Li Ang doesn't need to give them a good face.

"The boy is crazy! Don't be ashamed! Acquaintances hurry up and hand over the elemental crystals! "The big bald head is obviously a temper.

Leon glanced up at him, and the frightened bald head Deng Deng took two steps back, and only stopped when he bumped into the person behind him. Li Ang probably killed more zombies than their team, plus the level reached level four, full of momentum.

"You~~~!" was shocked by Li Ang's momentum, and the threatening words were stuck in his throat, but he couldn't say anything.

"Get out of here!" Li Ang walked straight forward, but no one dared to stop him.

After Li Ang left, the team searched the building very unwillingly, except for some traces of battle, naturally nothing could be found, not even the corpses of mutated zombies, and the Chu Miaomiao sisters had long been missing.

After Li Ang came out, he didn't need to go far, he found a relatively tall building and paid attention to the group of people, looking at their appearance, it was obvious that there was a gathering place for humans nearby, and Li Ang wanted to go and see, by the way, to learn about the elemental crystals.

It didn't take long for the team to find nothing but to go back, and Leon followed quietly.

About five kilometers east of the city, a small city stood in the wilderness, and patches of wooden stakes could be seen around it, apparently originally woods, and the wood was probably cut down by humans for the construction of the town.

The small city is surrounded by walls, which are not high, only three or four meters, and it is unknown how effective the defense is, but it still brings a strong sense of security to the people who live in the city.

There are four big characters written on the city gate, the city of hope, there are soldiers guarding the city gate, saying that the soldiers do not actually have uniform clothing and weapons, and their demeanor and movements are relatively casual, and they have different attitudes towards people who enter and exit, some nod their heads and waists, and some scold loudly, which is obviously not a regular army.

When the Agni Squad, that is, the group that Leon followed, approached the city gate, the soldiers defending the city were all extremely respectful, and it was obvious that they had a high status in this City of Hope. Most of the others had to hand in some things when they came in and out, but the Fire Squad went straight in and no one had any opinions.

Seeing this, Li Ang accelerated and quickly came to the city gate, he didn't have anything on him, could it be a bun? No one knows him here, and he obviously can't get in if he doesn't hand over things, so he can't get in.

"Wait a minute!" Li Ang shouted out to stop the people of the Agni Squad, walked straight to them, and said lightly to the soldiers defending the city, but no one stopped them with them.

"Looking for a place to talk?" Li Ang thought that instead of asking around, he might not be able to know what he wanted to know, so it was better to ask the people of the Agni Squad directly, and everyone knew each other.

After a while, the group came to a tavern.

"I didn't expect there to be a tavern now."

"Your Excellency isn't from here, right, I don't know what your adult is called?" Li Ang's momentum at that time and the traces of the battle they saw later showed that Li Ang was strong, and the Flame Boss was very respectful this time.

"Just call me Leon, this City of Hope looks okay, who built it?"

"It was established by three legions, namely the Earth Dragon Legion, the Storm Legion, and the Demon Spirit Legion. Their leaders are all powerful Abilities. ”

"Legion? It's not from the military, is it? ”

"No, no, they have gathered a group of people with their identity and strength to call themselves legions, and they have nothing to do with the army."

"What's the deal with the Elemental Crystal?"

"Don't you know?"

"Say what you say!"

The Flame Boss gave Leon a detailed introduction to the Elemental Crystal.

"I see, it looks like it's a good thing."

"Your Excellency, you're also a supernatural being."

"yes, what's wrong?"

"Let me wait and follow the adults!" The strength of the Agni Squad is relatively strong in the City of Hope, but their life is not easy, and the Agni Squad was far more than six people at the beginning!

"I'll be leaving soon, it's too dangerous for you to follow me. Okay, it's time for me to go too, thank you for the hospitality, and take your leave. ”

Li Ang's purpose of coming here was basically achieved, he planned to go around the city and leave, Xiao Huang and Kongkong were still waiting for him outside the city, and Kongkong carried the car for him.

Leon walks casually in the city, the residents of the City of Hope are not living well, except for the relatively tidy houses in the central area, the outer circle is actually very chaotic, similar to the slums of Africa, and the people here are also ragged, it is difficult to dress neatly, but Leon's current image is similar to theirs, but it has not attracted much attention.

It would be dinner time, but there was no smoke curling in this large slum, and everyone was nibbling on black and hard bread, and there was no need to think about the food.

Li Ang strolled casually, and gradually walked to the junction of the slum and the central area, where there were even soldiers guarding, seeing Li Ang approaching, a small leader who looked like a person immediately shouted to drive Li Ang away.

Classes exist in any era, but the criteria for division are different in each era, once wealth, but now it is clearly strength.
