Unlike other gathering places built on high mountains, this dead city is built in a col surrounded by three hills, and the terrain is steep, and there is only one mountain pass to enter and exit.

It stands to reason that such a gathering place should be able to survive the attacks of the corpse tide and the beast tide as long as it is properly defended. Unfortunately, no matter how strong a fortress is, it can't stop an attack from within.

Originally, this gathering place had successfully repelled the attacks of the mutant beasts in the nearby mountains, and as long as they heard another wave of corpses, and then cleared the high-level dangerous creatures in the nearby mountains, they would be able to gain a firm foothold and successfully build the city. And with the strength and terrain of Dead City No. 7 at that time, it was not difficult to complete this task.

But it was precisely because he saw the dawn of victory that the second-in-command in the gathering place turned back at a critical moment, and led a group of henchmen to brazenly seize power, severely damaging the number one in the base who was a third-order ability at that time. In the desperate situation of betrayal and separation, the leader was unwilling to let the gathering place he had worked so hard to build be taken away, so he launched a self-explosion at the last moment.

The power of the third-order ability's self-detonation is comparable to that of a high-power cloud burst bomb, and the shockwave of the self-detonation not only kills the second-in-command of the base and a kind of base powerhouse on the spot, but also destroys the defensive offensive at the mountain pass, thus being driven in by the corpse tide. In the end, the city, which numbered nearly 10,000 people, was completely destroyed in the sea of corpses, and no one survived.

Since then, this gathering place has become a real dead city, and what's worse is that after this gathering place was occupied by zombies, the original geographical advantage has become the biggest difficulty for humans to recover this city, plus there is nothing good in the gathering place, so in the end, people simply adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards this dead city and didn't bother to care about it.

Anyway, these zombies are trapped in this dead city after attacking the gathering place, as long as someone doesn't deliberately lead them, it will be difficult for these zombies to come out of this complicated place, and they can't pose any threat to the nearby gathering places and cities at all.

However, the dead city is not completely devoid of living people, this was once a gathering place for the upcoming city, and there are still a lot of materials and crystal nuclei that have been collected by people. The value of these things is very high, although it can't arouse the interest of the really strong people in Chu City, but it is enough for many people to venture into the dead city and steal the wealth left behind in the dead city.

For this kind of person who specializes in stealing materials left behind in the dead city, people generally call them "ruin hunters"!

Ruin hunters are more powerful and dangerous than bounty hunters, as they need to operate in a dead city overrun by zombies and mutants, which requires not only great strength, but also a strong and cautious heart. Because if they are not careful, they will die without a place to be buried!

So when Chu Xun saw three living people near the entrance of the seventh dead city, he couldn't help frowning.

Ruin hunters are notoriously xenophobic, and their special professional demands make them disgusted by the existence of anyone who can be unpredictable. So if you encounter a ruin hunter outside the dead city, you will probably get into a lot of trouble!

"Who?" At the same time that Chu Xun saw the three ruin hunters, the three ruin hunters also saw him. Just as Chu Xun thought, the expressions of the three ruin hunters quickly became gloomy.

Searching for supplies in a dead city is extremely dangerous, and the slightest mistake can attract a large number of enemies. So in the face of such a kid who seemed to be likely to cause them trouble, they immediately felt wary and repulsed.

However, the three ruin hunters did not immediately make a move against Chu Xun, after all, there was no simple person who dared to operate near the dead city, and they were not willing to risk a conflict with this kid who didn't know the details.

"May I ask the three of you are preparing to enter the city?" Feeling the vigilance and rejection of the three of them, Chu Xun frowned slightly, and then asked, "If so, I wonder if we can go together?" ”

The Dead City is full of dangers, not only from zombies or mutants, but also from the original fortifications in the Dead City. While most of these fortifications have been scrapped, it is possible that some low-energy self-defended weapons such as auto-cannon have been left behind. Chu Xun didn't want to run around the dead city like a headless fly, otherwise it would be terrible if he activated these defensive weapons.

Compared to that danger, the three ruin hunters didn't worry him very much. After all, the dead city is too dangerous, and unless it is forced to do so, no one will choose to cause infighting in the dead city. Otherwise, once they cause a big commotion, then what awaits them is likely to be endless enemies from all directions.

"You tell who you are first!" Hearing Chu Xun's words, the three ruin hunters glanced at each other, and then took the lead in the middle-aged man who looked to be about thirty years old, wearing a certain beret, and wearing a fighting suit, and said in a condensed voice: "We don't want to act with a kid who doesn't know the details!" ”

"My name is Chu Xun, I am from the Chu family in Chu City, and I am here for a trial this time!" Chu Xun smiled slightly and said, "The only purpose of my operation this time is to increase my experience and experience. I can promise you that whatever you find, I don't want it. ”

Speaking of this, Chu Xun glanced back at the small mountain peak not far away, and then continued: "And my teacher is also nearby to protect me, if we go together, even if we encounter an irresistible strong enemy, there is also my teacher who can come forward to solve it, in this way, everyone's safety factor will be greatly improved." ”

"Another aristocratic boy who came to the trial!" Looking at Chu Xun's confident smile, a trace of jealousy flashed in the eyes of the three ruin hunters, compared to Chu Xun, who was born in the aristocracy, their lives would undoubtedly be much more miserable.

However, jealousy is jealousy, but in the end, they did not refuse Chu Xun, but agreed to his request.

"I can allow you to act with us, but you must not make your own decisions, let alone cause us trouble!" The beret man narrowed his eyes, and then said to Chu Xun in a cold voice: "Otherwise, even if your teacher is nearby, it may not be able to stop us from killing you!" What's more, don't forget that this is a dead city, and no one will have a good time when things get bigger! ”

For them, it is more risky to let Chu Xun enter the dead city alone, it is better to take him with them, after all, they can still monitor him. As for the so-called "teacher", they didn't doubt it, after all, it was not the first time that the strong man in the clan took the newly promoted supernatural person to the dead city to train.

"I can guarantee that!" Chu Xun smiled slightly and said: "I am a strong system ability, good at strength and hand-to-hand combat, if I encounter a battle, I will never back down!" ”

"Good!" The beret nodded, then introduced herself, "My name is Vincent, an elemental ability, and I am good at earth-based elemental abilities. ”

After introducing himself, Beret pointed to another young man wearing a simple sportswear, a pair of glasses, and a computer bag in his right hand, who looked more like a college student than an adventurer, and said: "This is Yang Ling, the ability is to control metal, and the automatic defense mechanism in the dead city needs him to crack it." ”

"Hello, I hope we have a happy cooperation!" Yang Ling, who looked like an ordinary college student, nodded slightly, his expression was still indifferent, but the light that flashed behind the lenses did not hide Chu Xun's eyes.

This is obviously not a simple guy!

"Hello, my name is Chu Hang, a dark powerhouse." However, just as Chu Xun was figuring out the details of this man with glasses, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Is that you?" Looking at the man standing at the end of the crowd, his body completely covered by a black cloak and clothes, and he could barely tell his age and appearance, Chu Xun's eyes suddenly lit up.

He could hear it, this voice was exactly the same as the voice of the person who helped him deal with the Wolf King's personal guards in the first place!

"Hehe, speaking of which, we really have a fate!" Hearing Chu Xun's words, the black-robed man smiled slightly, and then took off the hood on his head, revealing a slightly pale and immature face.

This guy looks even younger than Chu Xun!

"Thank you very much about Satellite Town Four!" Looking at that young face, Chu Xun said with a serious expression: "If it weren't for you, I was afraid that I would have died under the fangs of the Wolf King's guards!" ”

"You're too modest, even without me, it's only a matter of time before you solve the Wolf King's guard!" Chu Hang smiled slightly, then turned to the other two and said, "Vincent, Yang Ling, this person is not lying, he is indeed from Chu City, and his master is a famous powerhouse-martial madness!" ”

"Martial madness!"

Hearing Chu Hang's words, Vincent and Yang Ling were taken aback, especially Vincent, whose original calm appearance was completely gone, his face was full of fanaticism, and he asked excitedly, "Lord Martial Arts is nearby?" Oh my God, I didn't expect that I would be able to act with the disciples of Lord Martial Madness, it really excites me! ”

"This guy, is he the legendary brainless fan?" Looking at Vincent's excited appearance, Chu Xun also felt a trace of surprise in his heart.

It's just that those soldiers were so fanatical about the Chu madman before, why is Vincent, a big man who looks extremely calm, so is it, could it be that the influence of the Chu madman is really so great?

"Alright, it's almost 11 o'clock, and the next four hours are the lowest activity of the day for zombie creatures, so we have to speed up the time action!" However, before Chu Xun could ask, Yang Ling on the side was already frowning and said in a deep voice: "Once the time passes, our trouble will be big!" ”

Zombies are indeed creatures that don't know tiredness and fear, but perhaps because the virus activity in the body is suppressed by the sun, the aggression and alertness of zombie creatures will be greatly reduced during the four hours from 11 o'clock to 15 o'clock every day, which is why Vincent and others have already arrived at the gate of the dead city, but they have not entered the city for a long time.

"Okay, let's go to the city first!" When it came to business, Vincent immediately regained his composure, he nodded, and then said to Chu Xun in a condensed voice: "Since you said that Lord Wu is the apprentice, then we don't have to hide it." The purpose of our operation this time is to enter the material reserve center of Dead City No. 7, it is said that this gathering place has hoarded a lot of crystal nuclei and high-grade alloys in the material center before it becomes a dead city, as long as we can get our hands on it, it will definitely make a fortune! ”

Speaking of this, Vincent's expression also became solemn: "However, the material center is in the center of the seventh dead city, which is the place with the highest concentration of zombies, and there are even many high-level zombies, so we must be careful, you know?" As for the remuneration, as long as you play your due strength, we can give you 20% of the remuneration according to the rules! ”

"No problem!" Hearing Vincent's words, Chu Xun's eyes also flashed with a gleam.

20% of the core wealth of a gathering place is estimated to be no less!

As for combat and grinding, hey, if you want to get to the heart of a dead city, will there still be a lack of combat?

Thinking of this, Chu Xun also secretly clenched his fists.

It's time to go big!
