Chapter 17: Morris Reservoir

On the way to Los Angeles, the four discover something very important.

As long as you enter the city, more precisely, into the city where there is a large number of human beings, those "things" will not appear so "blatantly" and carry out unbridled attacks.

Although I don't understand the principle, being able to find a "weakness" of those "things" that I don't know if it's a weakness also allows the four of them to take a breather and not be forced to collapse by the more frequent and undisciplined attacks of those "things".

However, although those "things" may have received some "restraints" and "restrictions" in human settlements, along the way, the four of them are keenly aware that the further they go, the less "restrictions" those "things" will be, and even if they are surrounded by dense crowds, they will begin to move......

This discovery made Zhang Shen and the four of them feel heavy.

Fortunately, until the four of them arrived at the woodland not far from Morris Reservoir (next to Los Angeles), they were still in the "ready to move" range, and there was no obvious attack action.

It is said that "eating a trench grows a wisdom", in the "journey of death" for more than ten days, Zhang Shen does not know how many "trenches" he has eaten, although it is not very clear whether the "wisdom" has risen or not, but at least the four have become a qualified "wild survival expert"......

The parking spot Zhang Shen chose was a relatively dense woodland, but the trees in it were all just growing, but they were arm thick, and there were no shrubs and thorns, and there was nothing to make those "things" use.

"Twenty-five of the Bound Path, Water Mirror Floating Shadow!" (In addition to binding and confinement in the original book, there are also tracking spells, as a complete auxiliary spell system, there will naturally be no shortage of detection spells...... In addition, the spells of the ghost spells in the original book are all relatively "weird", and Eleven really doesn't want to spend his brain cells to compile new spells, so he ...... ）

didn't bother to rest, Li Jing recited a mantra and sealed, and the spiritual power in his body poured out, winding and condensing in a mysterious way, turning into a mirror with a diameter of half a meter, with ripples on it, and pictures flashed quickly.

A few days ago, when Zhang Shen was facing a life and death crisis, Li Jing was stimulated, broke through on the spot, comprehended the "destruction of chanting", and saved Zhang who was about to be knocked into a puddle of meat sauce. However, afterwards, when she tried to use "Chanting Destruction" again, she reluctantly found that it was as ineffective as Duan Yu's six-vein divine sword, and guessed that it was caused by her own lack of cultivation.

Li Jing's "Water Mirror Floating Shadow" detection range is a radius of one thousand meters, if it exceeds this distance, Li Jing needs to instill spiritual power again, the farther the distance, the more detailed the picture, the spiritual power consumed will also increase significantly. With Li Jing's current spiritual power of 200 calories (fan), he can only detect an area of six thousand meters at most.

[PS: "Card" is not a quantitative unit, but a comprehensive indicator. For example, if a great master who has cultivated all his life in the low martial arts world has 10,000 "units" of energy in his body, if he uses "cards" to calculate, it may only be a few tens of cards or hundreds of cards; On the contrary, in that very dangerous world of gods and demons, a small soldier has only been cultivating for a few years, and a hundred "units" of energy in his body may also be tens of cards or hundreds of calories...... As for the difference between "mortal" and "spirit", that's another concept, which will be explained in more detail later.]

Li Jing naturally couldn't spend all his spiritual power on reconnaissance, just expanding the scope of investigation to a radius of two thousand meters. In fact, there are also spells in the Binding Path spell that sense soul fluctuations (originally used to search for Void or Death, but can also be used to search for humans), but she can't cast them at her current level.

"Captain, there are people nearby, and there are quite a few."

Zhang Shen and the three of them all came over and looked at the water mirror, the picture on the water mirror was fixed in one place, showing hundreds of people, fully armed, and it didn't look like a serious army or police force, but more like an underworld armed or thug.

In a circle of mobs, one of the leaders was waving his arms and saying something impassionedly. Hundreds of thugs, all of them strong and strong, looked excited, and their eyes were full of hideous killing intent.

"Li Chen, take out the map of the neighborhood and take a look." Zhang Shen suddenly thought of something and said to Bu Lichen.

The latter unfolded the map of the Los Angeles area, and the words "Morris Reservoir" came into view.

Los Angeles, like other cities in the United States, has established a quarantine zone to separate government forces from ordinary residents, and there are all kinds of bloody and violent clashes in the city, and the confrontation between the military and the civilian population is very serious.

In order to ensure the water supply of the entire city, of course, the first is to protect the water supply of the military and political forces themselves, the Morris Reservoir will naturally be strictly guarded to prevent some crazy people from poisoning and blowing up the reservoir.

Don't doubt it, for people who have lost hope of living, this kind of thing is not stressful to do......

"Send out the scout bees and go to the reservoir." Last time, in order to steal the information in the Dragon Group base in Z City, the four of them exchanged for more than a dozen of these cheap gadgets, and later there were similar things in the military supplies given by the arms madman Tang Tian for free, but the level of science and technology was similar to that of this world (the real earth), a little inferior.

Weapons, armor, auxiliary equipment, and military supplies in a universal capsule are enough for four people to fight a skirmish......

It should be mentioned that the level of this universal capsule exchanged with Tang Tian is not high, and it can only be used to hold things that do not contain energy. In other words, for the current Zhang Shen team, its function is a warehouse for munitions and various raw materials and sundries.

The few scout bees released were exchanged at the Great Will, and they were of excellent quality and high level, and they could not be found at all unless they were of the level of the summit room of the countries.

It didn't take long for the scout bee to send back the picture.

Sure enough, the Morris Reservoir has been overwhelmed by the military and political forces in Los Angeles, and there are several teams patrolling the dam and other places, and there are many heavy weapons on the screen, which is simply a hedgehog.

Spy bees tracking rebel forces also sent back footage, and after the leader's lecture, hundreds of people dressed in jungle camouflage appeared to sneak towards the reservoir with great professionalism.

"Captain, you're going to let the scout bees out, are you going to interfere?" Li Jing asked curiously.

Along the way, the four of them passed through many cities, witnessed the miserable life of ordinary people in the quarantine area, and were very dissatisfied with the US government and military forces. From an "outsider's" point of view, there's nothing wrong with doing so — especially after using hacking methods to watch a few videos of the apocalyptic news leak.

In fact, during this period of time, the guys who took advantage of the opportunity to do evil in the quarantine areas of military and political personnel in many cities mysteriously disappeared, and there were shadows of four people......

"You should all feel it, the unusual atmosphere in Los Angeles ahead." Zhang Shen did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Bu Lichen and Li Jing both nodded, and Ouyang Tianqi also gave a positive look in return.

"I don't know exactly what that strange aura is, but I have a bad feeling ......"

"A lot of the same kind of breath." Ouyang Tianqi suddenly interjected, "In Los Angeles, there are many other guards. In addition to this, there is a strong smell similar to them. ”

"Have the 'restrictions' they been subjected to finally been 'lifted'?!" Bu Lichen's eyebrows frowned slightly, and the picture of being chased and killed on the road once again appeared in his mind, and he felt bitter at the same time with resentment.

"It doesn't seem easy to take a plane to Qingguo smoothly...... It's just, does this have anything to do with your involvement in this battle, Captain? Li Jing still didn't understand Zhang Shen's thoughts.

"The plane going to Qingguo must be very tightly controlled by the US government, and it is very difficult to get mixed up like this, and you must find a shield. I'm afraid that the people in Los Angeles who are eligible to get on the plane are almost controlled by other people, and I think that there must be big fish guarding such an important place as Morris Reservoir, maybe we can start from here. ”

"Even if you guess wrong, it won't be delayed for long, so let's try your luck."

………… Divide......... Cut......... Line...............

Inside a room in Morris Reservoir.

James Lua.

He lay on his bed, staring blankly at the low ceiling.

Since that time, he witnessed Zhang Shen's strange way of breaking free, and most of James's previous three views have been subverted, and while he is frightened and confused, he has also paid more attention to this thing that only exists in novels and movies.

In particular, after the "devil" descended on Washington, his three views were completely subverted, from an unbeliever to a devout Christian, and then, inexplicably, the fear of the end of the world was instantly magnified by dozens or hundreds of times......

Therefore, after learning the news that the end would come early through his own channels, James tried his best to go to Zhuoming Valley in Western Tibet Province in advance. Otherwise, in his capacity, although he has a ticket, he is also the last to evacuate.

After trying his best and finding a way, James Lua successfully caught up with a line - his boss's boss, the director of the FBI's Washington headquarters, Phyllis Tolik.

Originally, although he was an elite of the FBI, it was very difficult for him to catch Phyllis's line, and the reason why he was able to successfully follow Phyllis as a "driver" was entirely because he had saved Anhoyze's life, when the latter was not yet developed. Now, Anhoyze's career is in a high position (it doesn't seem to be mentioned in the specific professional movie), and he finally got what James wanted.

As the director of the FBI, Phyllis is usually in Washington, but a few days ago, out of nowhere, he suddenly came to Los Angeles...... Many people thought that he was scared and wanted to run away in advance and go to Zhuoming Valley. However, it turned out that the speculation was purely speculation, because when Phyllis came to Los Angeles, he did not reveal the slightest intention of boarding a plane to Tibet, but devoted himself very seriously to maintaining order in Los Angeles.

Under his iron-blooded suppression, the "order" in Los Angeles in the past few days has been much better than before......

Just yesterday, Phyllis, a workaholic, once again found himself a new job, which was to come to the Morris Reservoir to defend the water supply of the whole of Los Angeles......

Everyone was surprised by his behavior, but as much as they tried to persuade him or test his true intentions, they strangely lost their courage when they approached Phyllis.

In this regard, James, as an entourage, has a deep feeling.

Phyllis's back came to his mind, and for a moment, James shuddered heavily.

That person, it's scary!
