Chapter 9 [Aolong Base]
Twenty years ago, when the end of the world came, 99 percent of the animals became mutants. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoTherefore, in the wild, you can encounter ferocious mutant beasts at all times.
Fortunately, the road Wang Haoyu and the others took was the only way from the Aolong base to the hunting ground, and many people passed through here every day for many years. Most of the mutant beasts on the road have been cleared, and only three or three mutant beasts are left looking for food on the road.
"Don't you have a car?"
Looking at a truck whizzing in the distance next to him, Wang Haoyu had such a question.
"Looks like you really don't understand anything." Glancing at Wang Haoyu, Lin Wanting felt as if this guy was from ancient times and didn't know anything.
The world is technologically advanced, but after entering the end times, a large number of equipment has been destroyed, and the factories that produce new fuels have been destroyed. Building factories to make fuel requires a lot of resources, and in these last days, it is difficult to find.
Therefore, after the end of the world, most cars can only be driven by the oldest fuel. Due to the limited amount of fuel, it is very expensive, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.
After listening to Lin Wanting's introduction, Wang Haoyu also understood. Through the contact in the past few days, Wang Haoyu knows that Lin Wanting is an orphan, and it is already very difficult to survive in this panicked last days. Although her own strength is not bad, she is a person after all.
Most of the cars that can be driven in the last days are hunting groups or wealthy merchants. Ordinary people don't dare to approach these vehicles when they see them, for fear of causing some trouble.
The Aolong base was more than a hundred kilometers away from Wang Haoyu's house, and with the speed of the two, they didn't reach the periphery of the base until the third day.
In the past two days, the two encountered several mutant beasts, but they were all killed by Lin Wanting's accurate marksmanship. In the evening, the two of them took turns on duty, but they were safe.
"What's that?" Looking at the dense tents in the distance, Wang Haoyu asked.
Far away, Wang Haoyu saw the city wall of the Aolong base. After twenty years of post-apocalyptic life, almost all large bases have been equipped with walls to prevent the attacks of mutant beasts and zombies. The wall of the Aolong base in front of him is seven or eight meters high, the length is not visible at a glance, there is a sentry post every fifty meters above, and there are three or two figures swaying in the outpost, thinking that they are the guards of the base.
"It's a slum, where the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are all ineffective." Looking at the tent group, Lin Wanting did not have a trace of expression in her eyes. After twenty years of life, she doesn't know how many she has seen these ordinary poor people. Once upon a time, she was one of them.
"Are they not members of the Oron base?" Looking at the dense group of tents, Wang Haoyu asked curiously.
In the last few years, many people have died in the whole world, and the existing population is less than one-tenth of what it was before the end of the world. And in this case, there should not be an overpopulation and placement outside the base.
"These people are helpless, how can the Aolong base feed them? The entire base has a population of 100,000, and self-sufficiency is already barely enough, and no one will take care of them. ”
When she said this, Lin Wanting felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but she quickly returned to nature. The last days are like this, sometimes when you are used to seeing life and death, you will be at a loss.
Nodding, Wang Haoyu followed Lin Wanting towards the gate of the Aolong base.
This is one of the four gates of the Aolong base, and the gate is full of people, most of whom are people who have gone out to hunt or rushed back.
"Boss, okay, let's get something to eat."
"As long as you give me something to eat, you can do anything, please, boss."
"I'll have a baby and live a good ......"
Just as Wang Haoyu and Lin Wanting were walking through the slum and preparing to enter the city, the sound of begging came from time to time. Some people can say anything unbearable for a little food.
Looking to both sides, there were many disheveled people begging on both sides of the road leading to the gate. When they saw someone passing by, they stretched out their hands one after another. Their faces were sallow and emaciated, apparently the result of chronic malnutrition.
But what Wang Haoyu noticed was that although they were begging, no one dared to go to the middle of the road to block the path of pedestrians. Attentively, he saw that there were several guards with guns not far from the gate, looking at the poor people on both sides.
Seeing these scenes, Wang Haoyu couldn't do anything. In general, there are at least thousands of people in the entire slum, and he may be able to feed a few people, but there are so many people, even if he has storage space, there is nothing he can do.
"Are these people old, weak, sick and disabled?"
While walking, Wang Haoyu asked Lin Wanting beside him.
At the beginning of seeing these poor people, Wan Haoyu may have felt that they were very pitiful. But after seeing so many people, the feeling also faded a little.
He now has a system that allows him to travel back and forth between the end of the world and reality. If this is not the case, with Wang Haoyu himself, I am afraid that he will become a member of the slums like them soon after coming to the end of the world.
In these last days, there is no one to be pitied. Without strength, there will be no mercy at all. Twenty years of eschatological life have made people even more cold.
"There are also some original scientific and technological personnel or elites in other industries, but they are powerless, and they can't kill mutant beasts to get magic crystals, so they can only fall here. I don't know too many words, after all, as soon as I was born, the world became the end of the world. While walking forward, Lin Wanting said.
Listening to Lin Wanting's words, Wang Haoyu's heart moved. If there were tech people here, wouldn't it be useful to him? There is a hundred years of technology in the real world and the end of the world, and as long as you get a little technology here, you will benefit a lot in reality.
However, at present, Wang Haoyu did not make any moves, but entered the Aolong base with Lin Wanting after swiping a magic crystal with an ID card.
First, she accompanied Lin Wanting to the foreign trade zone of the base, where Lin Wanting spent 10 magic crystals to exchange for some pulse bullets. Individuals are not allowed to trade ammunition in the Orone base, and all required ammunition must be purchased in the official trade zone of the base. If caught trading ammunition without permission, the penalty is death.
"What? Pulse bullets turned out to be so expensive? ”
After inquiring about the price of the pulse bullet purchased by Lin Wanting out of curiosity, Wang Haoyu said in surprise.
