Section 43 Wasteland Mutations
Blood Pupil lived in the villa for three days, and it can be regarded as enjoying the luxurious life that the black bear once enjoyed. Early in the morning of the third day, he boarded the armored vehicle that had been waiting for a long time and left Vault 27.
This time there is a world of difference between leaving and the last one. He carries with him an astonishing wealth that ordinary people can't accumulate in a lifetime. That's five thousand Golden Vic. Enough for him to squander to death. It's ironic to say that the black bear has been preparing these things for a long time, and it takes a lot of painstaking work. In the end, it was cheaper for the blood pupil. Maybe he won't be reconciled until the moment he dies.
Sit on the turret of an armored vehicle and feel the roughness of the winds of the wasteland. Blood Pupil's expression was calm. AT HIS FEET, THE 37MM RAPID-FIRE GUN OF THE ARMORED CAR GAVE OFF AN ICY SHEEN.
"Master, which direction are we going?" There was a question from Kirby ahead. The brawny man stuffed himself into the cramped cab and couldn't stretch his hands and feet, but he looked very excited. Probably never drove such an advanced 'big toy'. Kirby is now eager to play a few drifts in the wasteland.
This guy's driving skills are indeed very skillful as he said. Skilled can do seventy-yard drag racing at any time in the old days.
"To the north." The blood pupil was still sitting on the turret, his eyes unmoving.
"North? It was Lord Koster's territory. Kirby muttered, a little confused.
"Hmm. That's where my purpose is. ”
"For what? My master. Although I know that you are very strong. But I still want to remind you. Master Koster is a very powerful lord. Definitely not something that black bears can compare. It will be a hassle if you go to his territory. After all, you've just killed one of his right-hand men. ”
"There's no need to worry, you just have to do your thing." The blood pupil rejected Kirby's advice. Then he stepped on the roof of the armored car with his foot. "Are you scared? Gramby. ”
"Ha Luha, are you kidding? How could I be afraid? Kirby laughed out loud and replied with a nonchalant expression. But after lowering his head, he muttered to himself.
"I'm Kirby, strong, nerves as tough as the roots of an old tree. I'm not going to be afraid of anything. Is it? Wouldn't you be afraid? Will you be afraid? ”
"Huh. I won't be afraid......"
"Will you be afraid? No way...... Will you be afraid......"
The armored car turned north with the muttering of Kirby and jolted along......
It has to be said that traveling in the wilderness is subject to all kinds of dangers and harsh environments. But the view is good. Everywhere there are wreckage left behind after the great destruction. Coupled with the strong wind and flying yellow sand, it gives people a feeling of the great desert in the western part of the country in the old era. After two days of continuous marching, the armored vehicle finally found a semi-abandoned oasis. And something unfortunate happened at the same time.
They ran out of gas.
Oil is one of the most scarce resources in the last days. They had already filled up their gas tanks when they left Vault 27. But I didn't expect to run into a single gathering point in two days. The opportunity to refuel is lost. The armored car drove to a stop at the edge of the oasis, and Kirby jumped out of the cockpit. A butt sat down on the ground.
"God, I hate traveling without preparation. You know, I should have prepared some more oil. But for what kind of warehouse there is only weapons and Jinvic. But don't have the oil drums I want to see the most? ”
"I don't know. But these should be your job. You are remiss in your duties. The blood pupil also stepped out of the carriage. said expressionlessly.
"Oh. I'm sorry. Kirby secretly stuck out his tongue and made a strange expression. After this period of contact, he has gradually figured out the temper of the blood pupil. It can be said that it is easy to get along when there is no hostility. So Kirby is not as afraid of blood pupils as he was at the beginning.
Fortunately, at this moment, the two have entered the oasis. Next to the water source. I don't have to worry about survival. Kirby climbed into the carriage and took out large bundles of camping equipment. The two of them set up two tents at the water's edge. Next, Kirby pulled out a few more cans of meat.
There is not much food in the carriage anymore. This is thanks to the astonishing appetite of the blood pupil. After this armor absorbed the new unit, he was able to eat more. One meal requires a day's worth of food for an average person. So in the past few days, Kebi has tried to eat as little as possible, leaving all the food for the blood pupil.
Kirby took some water at the water's edge and did the next test. Luckily, the water quality here is grade 6. In other words, it can be drunk after careful filtration. It was much better than he had originally thought. Kebi happily opened the can, poured it into an iron pot, and then poured the filtered water into it. Raise a bonfire and cook for a good lunch. ,
After a busy day, an enticing aroma quickly emerges from the pot. Kirby was elated and was just about to beckon Blood Pupil to eat. only to find that the blood pupil didn't know when Lu Dao had stood up, frowning and listening to something.
"Master!"
"Quiet." The blood pupil made a silent motion. Look into the distance. "Did you hear anything?"
"Nope." Kirby touched the back of his head in confusion. It seems strange that the blood pupil is saying. This is the wasteland, what can you hear but the howling of the wind?
"No, I did." Blood Pupil clenched his fists, affirming his judgment. "In that direction, there's the chirping of mutant vultures."
"Huh?" Kirby was dumbfounded. The mutant vultures gathered, indicating that something must have happened over there. Could it be that there are a large number of corpses in the direction designated by the blood pupil?
"Check it out." Kirby stood up, took an assault rifle from the carriage and slung it on his back, and followed the blood pupil in that direction.
The two of them walked fast, and after a few moments, they saw the shadow of a vulture hovering in the sky. Sure enough, as the Blood Pupil said, there were many mutant vultures gathered in a desert in front of them. This greedy creature has been mutated and has some attack power. But his nature is still greedy and timid. Kirby only looked up to the sky and fired a few shots, and they scattered in a hurry. Then a disgusting sight appeared before their eyes.
I saw hundreds of human corpses lying on a desert not far ahead. Brown blood stains were everywhere. There are also several charred car wrecks next to it. The stench of blood was transmitted by the direction of the wind, and it was disgusting.
The corpses were already somewhat decomposed. Looks like he's been dead for a while. But it can still be seen that they fought fiercely before they died. Some of the corpses still had rudimentary weapons in their hands. Kirby walked into the scene with his nose covered, and he endured it so that he didn't throw it up. He cautiously flipped around before returning to the Blood Pupil.
"Ah, that's miserable. It's a brigade, and it looks like they've been attacked by a large number of mutated creatures. There aren't too many bullet holes. Only a few were fired from their own weapons. An old double-barreled shotgun, which is a shotshot. But it seems that their revolt has had little effect. Everybody was killed. The elderly, the woman, and even the child. It must not have been the robbers, otherwise they wouldn't have killed these young girls. ”
The blood pupil didn't speak, but walked silently. Kicked a charred car wreckage as he walked over it. The wreckage of the car rolled on its side. The Blood Pupil found several crushed corpses underneath. In addition, large open wounds were seen on several nearby corpses. It was as if he had been slashed by a guillotine, and his body was almost cut off.
"............, are there a lot of mutated creatures here? And this wound reminds me of amputees, but amputees don't have such a lot of force. ”
"There will always be mutated creatures in the wasteland, master. This can only say that they are unlucky. I happened to come across a group of mutated creatures who came to the oasis to drink. As for the wounds, God knows how many new creatures are mutating every day in the wasteland, and this may be a new variety. Looks pretty good, maybe it can fetch a good price? ”
Kirby shrugged his shoulders and made a harmless joke. Actually, he's just talking. If he really wants to encounter the new mutant beast, he must have run as far as he can. Strange creatures are always dangerous, and Kirby doesn't want to lose his life here. He's got a lot of money to spend.
But he didn't notice, just as he was laughing. A sandbag bulged out of a sandy patch behind him. Immediately after, a dark shadow swooped out of it silently. The shadow was extremely fast, appearing on Kirby's back almost instantly. But Kirby was completely ignorant.
"Be careful." The blood pupil in front of him turned around sharply as if he could see the scene behind him. Reach out and grab it at Kirby. His speed was lightning fast, and Kirby didn't even have time to blink his eyes when he heard a terrible scream in his ears. A black shadow that looked like a human child was grabbed by the blood pupil alive.
It was a humanoid creature with fine scales all over its body. The character is extremely fierce. Even if he was caught by the blood pupil, he kept struggling, letting out inhuman screams. Just by looking at the blue light on his fingernails, he knew that it was covered with toxins. Kirby was taken aback.
You know, he was almost pounced on by this thing just now. This thing is so vicious, it will definitely not be good if it is pounced. Kirby is really scary to think about.
"What the hell is this!!" Kirby exclaimed with a pale face. Reaching for the bolt, he pressed the barrel against the humanoid's head.
"I don't know what to do." Blood Pupil narrowed her eyes and observed for a moment. Then he said. "But I'm sure this thing is one of the murderers who killed these travelers. For I saw that some of the corpses had blue skin on their faces, which was evidently the same color as the nails on their fingernails. ”
"Hell! Doesn't that mean we're being targeted too? Kirby exclaimed in shock.
