Chapter 15: Radiation Clouds

"Bang Bang Bang", Director Ding of the street didn't know where to get a broken gong, knocking on the east end to the west and the west end to the east in the community. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Tomorrow night the radiation cloud will arrive over the city, it is expected to last for three to four days, the head of each building will notify each unit, and the person in charge of each unit will notify the household, close the doors and windows, reduce outdoor activities, and tomorrow the people who come to receive food on each floor will pay attention, and receive three days' amount at a time. Again, tomorrow..."

It has been almost two months since the implementation of the "evaporation" plan of the global nuclear explosion, and half a month after the implementation of the evaporation plan, Bincheng City ushered in the first radiation cloud weather. When dust or vapours with radioactive particles enter the stratosphere, they drift around as the monsoon winds disperse, spreading the nuclear contamination.

Radiation clouds are the most typical "new era weather".

The common people didn't know that the fierce battle that took place in the north of the city, the Hunters Association, the Buddhist Sect, and the masters of the military came out together, not only failed to take down the insect beetle, but Master Shenye was also seriously injured. In desperation, Li Hongpeng asked the military headquarters to drop three tactical nuclear weapons there, and a mushroom cloud finally rose in the northern part of the city.

The insect swarm gathered in the north of the city was wiped out by three small-yield nuclear warheads, and the Bincheng Military Region dispatched fighters and long-range artillery to cover the target area as soon as possible after the nuclear strike. The swarms that increasingly threatened the walls disappeared, and on this day human history entered a new era.

The lead-gray clouds that obscured the sky could block the entire sky, as if the whole world had turned gray. The radiation cloud, which carries heavy radiation, is the product of the global nuclear explosion. In fact, the city itself has indeed turned gray. There were originally many evergreen trees and plants in Bincheng City, but most of them withered early when no one took care of them, and many of the remaining trees were cut down by residents to be used as firewood.

The fallout of radioactive dust casts a gray coat on all buildings, making the whole city look lifeless, and it is this oppressive hue that is left in the city the most.

After striking the gong, he returned to the hut of the community office, closed the curtains and locked the door, and Director Ding turned on a small table lamp.

"I'm asleep, Lao Ding, your job is not easy." A person sat up on the sofa, draped the padded jacket that had been covering him, walked to the desk and dragged a chair.

"That's not it, now you know I'm working hard, right? Move by your legs, and notify by your mouth! Saying that, Lao Ding stuffed the peeled peanuts into his mouth, tilted his neck and drank another sip of liquor, and then said:

"It's over with the layers of phone calls above, and when you get to me, you have to run on your legs, this unlucky radiation cloud comes from two ends in three days, and my legs have run several times!"

"Be content, if it weren't for the work of the streets, would you be able to drink this?" The man opposite Director Ding shook the wine bottle.

"Old Ma, this wine is my own, it has nothing to do with the street or not, I don't like to hear you say this."

"Yes, yes, yes, I stained the light of your Director Ding, so this peanut rice was not grown by your wife, right?"

"Hehe, that's right, what can I get for food stamps now? Swap to some expired cookies, and you'll have to steal the fun. What am I here? It's a peanut! As he spoke, he shoved another peanut into his mouth.

"This wine, this wine... Hiccup", the man opposite burped, "This wine, you can't buy it outside, right?" ”

"I bought it, loose liquor, and it's not Wuliangye, but it's not cheap, this number." Director Ding stretched out two fingers and compared the shape of eight.

"Eight, eight hundred?"

"Yo, my horse chief, eight hundred? I'm talking about eight pounds of food stamps! And with it, you can exchange it for eight catties of food tickets, and you can't exchange eight catties of food tickets. ”

"Eight pounds of food stamps! The little police officer in our police station only has a supply of fifteen catties a month. ”

"This is still the price of last month, this thing will become more and more expensive in the future, and there is no place to make it."

"Well, I'm too embarrassed to drink it anymore, it's too expensive." The man who had just slept grabbed a large cap and fastened it on his head, and swayed out of the room.

"Old Ma, you have to pay attention to your body, what did you say about the physical examination at the police station last time?"

"Hematopoietic disorders, neurasthenia, radiation, the doctor said it couldn't get better." Director Ma didn't look back, and staggered away around the corner.

In the lobby of the reception room on the second floor of the Bincheng Ability Testing Center, Lin Jiao was absentmindedly propped up on the table, and the captain's epaulettes on her shoulders were shining. At the age of 27, it is not easy to climb to such a level in the military army, especially as a woman.

Although the height of 1.70 meters is not very high, Lin Jiao can always give people a feeling of being slender and beautiful. The black lieutenant uniform of the military is well cut, and the exquisite curves of the upper body are completely highlighted; The black stockings and the tightened skirt complement each other, and the overlapping legs under the skirt are just casually placed, which also shows indescribable elegance.

This beautiful captain in everyone's eyes is not in a sunny mood right now. It has been a few months since he was sent to Bincheng, and the progress of the work arranged above is still very limited. Before leaving, the instructions from the higher authorities were to recruit as many capable people as possible to join the military force. This may seem like a simple requirement, but only those within the military know that it is a chore.

In addition to the military, there are many organizations active in this devastated continent, and the biggest competitor is the Hunters' Association. With a complete mission system that can help those with ability improve their abilities, and without the restrictions of the army, the Hunter Association is obviously more attractive than the military in recruiting those with ability.

In the Hunters' Guild, through the quest system, mind-keepers can take on different levels of tasks, from collecting samples of mutated plants to capturing living creatures, from clearing small insect swarms to escorting convoys of convoys. After completing the client's delegation, you can get a lot of new age currency - credits.

This kind of credit is recognized by several cities that are still under the control of the garrison, such as the Kyoto base, the Lanzhou base, the Chongqing base, and the Guangzhou base, and the credit points can be exchanged for various materials in the quartermaster departments of these cities, as well as in the shops under the Consortium and the Hunters' Association. Food, antibiotics, milk powder, and other items that are in high demand in the hands of disaster victims can also be exchanged for weapons and equipment, ammunition and other contraband from the old era, and if you have enough credit, you can even exchange it for armored vehicles and helicopter gunships.

Lin Jiao didn't know enough about the Hunters' Association, she only knew that this strange organization, which she had never heard of in the old days, had grown at an astonishing rate after the cataclysm. The military has taken a tacit and even cooperative attitude, and the Hunters' Guild has played an important role in several key battles.

Compared with the military system, the advantages of the Hunter Association are very obvious. Improving ability is the most urgent need of every capable person, although the military also has similar functional departments, but the Hunter Association's approach is more direct, simple, and professional. In the few surviving cities, the number and quality of recruits for the military and military units were far inferior to those of the Hunter Guild.

Bincheng is a special city, and no one expected this lonely city to be able to hold on. This is a blank space on the chessboard, and neither the military nor the hunters' association has settled here. After the city was secured, Lin Jiao was played here as the first step of the military.

However, this move obviously did not go very well, and the Hunters' Association soon established a branch in Bincheng City. A few low-level hunters can immediately attract a large number of capable people to apply to join. Compared with this vivid and vivid demonstration, the propaganda boards of the military are almost like a joke. The nature of military force determines that it is impossible for military soldiers to show their abilities to those who hesitate outside the door like jugglers. But the Hunter Association is different, as long as there are credit points, and some of them are low-level abilities who don't mind showing their faces in front of everyone.

Lin Jiao could only do her best, such as running to the front desk to make a cameo appearance as a receptionist, personally communicating with every quasi-ability person who passed the test, and persuading them to join the military. It's a pity that so much time has passed, and it really hasn't worked.

Today still seems to be a quiet day, it is already noon, and no one who has passed the initial test of ability has come up. When Lin Jiao turned around and was about to go to the rooftop to breathe, a voice sounded behind her.

"Excuse me, where is the Ability-Oriented Test conducted?"
