It's really ~ a charming taste, the cold suffocation in the warm sun, it's the fragrance of fear, and the fresh blood emanating from the decaying ruins...... Wait, the cockscomb sniffled slightly, what about the smell of blood? Why doesn't it smell of blood!

"He~heah......" It's like a person who is about to drown is fished out of the water, and the big boy is lying on the ground gasping for breath, I'm not dead? Only then did he react, except for his left leg and knee, there was no pain at all, and he clearly saw the other party's gun pointed at him just now.

Damn it! Missed? The cockscomb head was furious in his heart, this is not right, the distance of five steps, he deliberately lured him just now, everything is developing according to his expected plan, how can he deviate in the end?

The cockscomb looked at the blue skin who sat up with his legs on the ground and inhaled the cold air, and the sequoia closest to the blue skin, which was nervously shrinking behind the waste rock pile on the ground at the moment holding the gun, damn, an impossible thought suddenly appeared in the cock's head, could it be that this blue-skinned idiot ran too fast just now and broke his foot, and then happened to dodge the bullet? The situation is very similar now~ No one will notice that there is a small gravel at the big boy's feet.

Damn it! This blue-skinned idiot, bad for his own big thing, just shot Liwei, with a pre-planned and military advantage, and induced a member of the stronghold to shoot first, occupying the reason, suddenly shooting while the others did not react, after the sudden outburst of killing, Liwei's purpose was achieved, but the first Liwei was not successful, and now after the gunshot, the other five guards in the stronghold quickly found cover around to hide, clenched the weapon, the atmosphere was tense, and it was not Liwei to shoot again, but a bloody conflict broke out.

The thoughts in Cockscomb's mind flashed quickly, and he glared at the blue-skinned idiot on the ground viciously, but turned the muzzle of the gun away, revealing a confident smile, "This is just a small warning, our Knights of the Black Cone are not those Crystal Earth raiders, since you have already built a stronghold here, then you must follow our rules", Cockscomb Tou's eyes rolled, and his tone changed, "Originally, for those residents who know the rules, our knights only levy a ration tax of thirty percent of the number of strongholds every month, hey, it's a pity, I didn't expect that there were people in this stronghold of yours who tried to attack us just now, so you can only enjoy the treatment of a stronghold with an indifferent relationship, a monthly ration tax of fifty percent of the population, or, other equivalent items that we recognize, this is not negotiable, do you hear clearly? ”

"Of course, you can also try to resist, we Knights welcome this spirit of resistance", Rooster Crown added fearlessly, "Oh, and, for the sake of statistics, the names of the strongholds on our territory are all marked by the Knights", he slowly stepped forward, took down the wooden plaque of the House of Sprouts, threw it on the ground and stepped on it, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze from the face of the blue-skinned boy on the ground with some disappointment, and continued, "You are called Kennel Twelve here, remember! Make no mistake. ”

The sound of the crystal energy motorcycle sounded, and the refugees in the stronghold dared to stick out their heads and watch the motorcycle leave.

"Squad leader, what happened just now, how did that guy dodge?" A crystal energy motorcycle was riding alongside the cockscomb head, and the young man riding on it asked.

"It's nothing, that idiot just broke his foot", the cockscomb looked unhappy.

"Captain, that's it?"

"Of course not!" Cockscomb glanced at the stronghold behind him, "Come here, help me block the view from behind." ”

No one in the stronghold paid attention, the motorcycle that should have left directly slowly stopped at the side of the wooden bridge, and the cockscomb took out a brown medicine bottle from the side pocket of the motorcycle, unscrewed the lid, bent down, and carefully dripped a few drops of the liquid in the bottle on the bridge deck, and then covered it, and after repeatedly making sure that he didn't get it on his body, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Be careful when you come over, don't get it, this is a refined bloodsucking mosquito courtship pheromone." ”

Good night, Cockscomb retracts his gaze from the stronghold, "Let's go!" ”

"The squad leader is wise!" The Crystal Motorcycle quickly moved away, leaving only a dark red liquid on the bridge deck, emitting bursts of fishy shame.

……

After seeing that the motorcycles had left and walked away, all the people hiding in the house and behind the bunkers gathered around and came to Sequoia's side, their faces full of eagerness, trying to get a satisfactory answer from the captain.

Sequoia didn't say anything, let alone pay attention to the blue-skinned boy who was staggering to his feet, but silently came to the place where the cockscomb shot just now, bent down, and picked up the bullet casings that the cockscomb didn't take away from the ground.

"How's it going?" Brown Shirt came to Sequoia's side, squatted down, looked left and right slightly, and asked in a low voice.

"Extremely not optimistic", Sequoia glanced at the refugees and guards who were standing not far away waiting for their decision, and whispered, "It's good that the fight didn't start, the light pressure bullet, although it is only the lowest crystal light pressure bullet, but against us, make sure to shoot one at a time." ”

Within the scope of Lin Ze's soul power, he clearly heard the conversation between the two of them, light pressure bullet, another live ammunition technology, Lin Ze still has a general understanding, there is no gunpowder or other primer in the cartridge case, but a light energy source, it seems that the moon crystal is used here, and the tail end of the warhead is an optical material that can produce a light-driven effect.

At the same time, as long as the energy source and optical material technology are of excellent quality, the power is far greater than that of gunpowder bullets of the same caliber, after all, it is impossible to stuff too much primer into a bullet.

There is already a light pressure gun here, it seems that those moon elves are quite in place for the development and application of optical materials, Lin Ze had also considered making light pressure guns in the Yunshan World before, but unfortunately Lu Na didn't know much about optical materials, the little goblin was actually just a gem rune carving master, no matter how proficient the runes were, the materials were also blind, according to the technology they had at the time, in the end, they could only choose to make laser guns for the snake girls that relied more on the level of runes.

Crystal light pressure bullet, it seems that this is a live ammunition weapon with a power of up to the third order, Lin Ze roughly estimated.

"Okay, let's all go back to work, since we are here, let's follow their rules, after all, they also allow us to replace food with other valuable things, I think, gather all the materials as soon as possible to make the water purifier, pure water is much more valuable than food!" Sequoia stood up and said loudly that he knew that he was powerless to resist in the face of high taxes, and that if he could not see hope, he was afraid that the situation would be difficult to control.

Sure enough, the refugees' eyes lit up and they were full of energy again.

"Wait, boss, there's a problem you need to solve first, and that's him!" The man in the suit didn't expect the opportunity for revenge to come so quickly, happiness fell from the sky, if he couldn't grasp it, he would be sorry for himself, he stood up and pointed at the big boy with light blue skin who stood up and walked unwell, "I made a mistake before, this is a fact, I admit it, I regret it, but now it is definitely not because of revenge, his impulse to disobey the command just now almost triggered a direct fire conflict between us and that knight, if it weren't for the fact that the other party still wanted to get food from us, a little restraint, the consequences were unimaginable, so the chief, Personally, I think that for the sake of the team, it is absolutely dangerous to act without following the command and should be replaced! ”

A turnip and a pit, there are only six sets of guards' equipment, wouldn't it be a chance to get the big boy down, the refugees obviously thought of this layer, "That's right, captain, the guards who act without obeying your command should indeed be replaced, and replaced by someone who absolutely obeys your orders as a guard!" ”

The big boy with light blue skin lowered his head, unable to argue.

"Well, you take off the mutant rat suit and hand it over to ...... along with your weapon," Sequoia said, turning her head to look at the refugee, her gaze resting on the man in the suit for a moment.

"Captain, he made a mistake just now, so he can't give it to him!" A refugee who usually has no sense of existence hurriedly made a statement.

Sequoia nodded slightly, looked away, and finally stopped at the man wearing one of Lin Ze's shoes and a wrinkled clean hat, compared to other dirty refugees, this one looked much more pleasing to the eye, anyway, he was not impressed by these refugees, "It's him, you give him the protective clothing and guns, and then take over his work of collecting materials!" ”

The reason why the guards need protective clothing is mainly to deal with the purple light in the sky at night, and the protective clothing is made of the leather of those mutated animals under the moon, which can effectively protect against the invasion of the moon.

The man in the suit looked at him, and quietly glanced at the refugee who stood up against him just now, and secretly wrote it down in his heart, but his face was happy to look at the wrinkled man in the hat and put on the clothes of the guard, you bastard also wait for me, one day we will settle all the accounts together.

As the sun sets, the afterglow spreads in front of the ruined houses, and a row of refugees squatting at the foot of the ruins wall, holding in their hands the food cooked over a small fire, mutated stem potatoes, this mutated plant under the blue moon, can grow into enough edible tubers after planting for about a month, which can be regarded as the most common food on the crystalline ruins.

Lin Ze was whirring with the heat on the stem potato, and beside him was the obviously silent blue-skinned big boy, the big boy was depressed, looking down at the broken door sign that he had picked up at his feet.

"Bad, it's just, it means, here, no, it's suitable", the void energy infection also affected Lin Ze's normal speech, but I don't know why, he didn't delay two breaths like he did the action, at most, he paused a little.

"Yes~ not suitable for ......," the big boy muttered in a low voice.

Lin Ze was inconvenient to speak, so he naturally didn't want to say more, but he urgently needed to understand some things about this crystal earth world, Leia, Rixi and the others didn't know where the "one step worse" portal had gone, he urgently needed to understand the current situation, and the breakthrough might be in front of the light-blue-skinned big boy in front of him.

Lin Ze took a big bite of the stem potato, pretending to swallow it very hard, "Kindly, I clucked my teeth, I don't know, disaster, before, all, eat, what...... Hey~" He wanted to inadvertently provoke the conversation.

"It's said to be white soft bread, and something called rice, hey~" The big boy seemed to lift his spirits a little, "Most of these things disappeared after the disaster, and maybe they only exist in the species warehouses of some laboratories." ”

"Yes, cannibal zombies, cyborg beasts, and, those, hateful, aliens, we, must, be tenacious, live", Lin Ze's eyes rolled quietly, and he said all the words that he thought of related to the apocalypse.

"Haha!" The other refugees who were squatting in the corner of the wall and nibbling on the potatoes suddenly burst into laughter, apparently they were listening to the conversation between Lin Ze and the big boy, the man in the suit had the loudest voice, he stood up and hugged his stomach exaggeratedly, "Look, what did we encounter, zombies?" Alien? Hahahaha, another stupid hillbilly who mistook pre-disaster novels for history! ”

"I, rightly, it's true!" Lin Ze gritted his teeth and spit out a few words from between his teeth, as if anyone who objected would do it, aha, the fish was hooked.

"No, it's not like this", the blue-skinned boy hurriedly whispered to Lin Ze in embarrassment, "It's only been a hundred years since the catastrophe, and many of the survivors at that time have left records, which can be easily seen in those large strongholds and cities, the source of the disaster is actually the Linuoe Crystal Evolution Laboratory in the Central Continent, this laboratory is studying microbial crystallization technology, it was a bright night, with a violent explosion, many bacteria cultivated in the laboratory were sent into the air by the air current, and were directly exposed to the violent Lan Yue, And then there was a terrible mutation, a microorganism has gained the ability to absorb external water and convert it into hydrated crystallization through itself, we call it hydrated bacteria, and at the same time, Lanyue also gave this hydrated bacteria vigorous vitality and extremely fast reproduction speed, along with the night wind and the ocean, the hydrated bacteria quickly spread from the central continent, buildings, plants, soil and even various organisms, nothing can be spared, the most serious time, it is said that even the endless sea surface has a layer of thickening crystal shell, Plants crystallized and died, soil crystallized and desertified, building materials lost water and brittle, organisms went extinct and mutated, and in those dark days, the various races that once lived on the five continents lost more than 95% of their population......"

"No, it can't be, outside, in the river, it's all water!" Lin Ze smiled, as if he had caught some loophole.

"This is not surprising, there are also detailed records, more than ten years later, when the remaining life has lost hope of survival, the hydrated bacteria have disappeared as if they had never appeared, leaving only the dilapidated earth, however, I heard that some laboratories pointed out that there should be a new microorganism, the nemesis of the hydrated bacteria as food, which led to the disappearance of the hydrated bacteria, and now this hydrated bacteria only exist in some laboratory studies, maybe there are still a small amount in some special areas, Although the hydration fungus disaster has passed, the sequelae left by the disaster have not disappeared, a large number of mutant beasts, crystallized corpses that have mutated after crystallization, and the most obvious thing is that no plants can be planted in the soil outside the world now, unless special inhibition blending soil is used, which is a special laboratory product that can inhibit many microorganisms, and nothing can be planted without inhibition soil. ”

It turns out that this is the origin of the ruins of crystalline soil, Lin Ze fell into contemplation, man-made accidents and Lan Yue created the source of disaster, I don't know how many years of natural regulation produced the hydration fungus nemesis, and finally withdrew from the historical stage together with the hydration bacteria, so many years of lack of intelligent biological intervention has led to a large increase in the number and variety of mutant beasts in the wild, so now the result is that the small group of scarce intelligent creatures is competing with mutated creatures and the harsh environment for living space.
