Maya, who keeps her emotions calm every day, has her irrepressible excitement after obtaining iron supplies, which makes her talk a lot. It's not because metal is precious, but in Maya's view, metal is a ticket to home.

Seeing this, Lin Wu was a little worried, and he sincerely hoped that the road was Route 99, otherwise the blow to Maya would be cruel. Maya excites herself and gets busy, and she doesn't have time to think about whether it's Route 99 or not. Isn't this an escape?

When this emotion appears in the calm Maya, it represents Maya's ardent desire to return home. Lin Wu didn't want Maya to be disappointed, but they only had a 50% chance and their fate was not in their hands.

The heart should have hope, but it should not be overly extravagant, otherwise it is easy to fall into endless hell.

With a metal weapon as a backing, Maya let go of the slash in the face of the zombies. However, compared to her previous swordsmanship, the sword technique lacks fluidity, in short, the combo rate is low. In this kind of frontal battlefield, Lin Wu's role is relatively limited, his weapon is a wooden stick made of the simplest materials, and he takes the wooden stick and shouts on the side, and is driven to the side by Maya with a knife to cool off.

Inspired by Lin Meng's slingshot, Lin Wu tried to use wood and plastic to synthesize in the production room, and the result was a plastic grip stick. Lin Wu used a small amount of waste rubber and wood to synthesize it and obtained a rubber head stick. Continuing to toss, synthesizing with plastic and rubber, four options appeared, and Lin Wu chose the rubber band. The stone thrower was obtained by combining wood and leather bands.

I lose!

Put the stone into one end of the stone thrower, shake the handle, and the stone will eject, not to mention the hit rate at all, and you can even hit yourself at the beginning of training.

Lin Wu continued to dig the garbage dump and remade the rubber bands, and now the problem is in the wood. Lin Wu uses a wooden stick, and it is reasonable that a wooden fork should be used, but the production room does not recognize the wooden fork.

In desperation, she could only seek the advice of a wise man, and Maya listened: "Sticks, rubber bands, and pieces of cloth or rubber. Three items, not two. Maya admires Lin Wu very much, and under the random tossing, she can get the rubber band out.

Maya said, "I have time to make more rubber bands." ”

"You're going to play with a slingshot too?"

"No, I tie my hair."

Under Maya's guidance, Lin Wu finally made a system-certified slingshot. The lethality is almost zero, silent, the firing distance is 15 meters, and the effective range is almost zero, which is due to the fact that the effective range and lethality are linked. The firing distance of 15 meters represents the maximum firing distance. Can you pull the rubber band hard to make the shooting distance more than 15 meters? No, because the slingshot will be damaged directly.

With the assistance of the slingshot, Maya's efficiency has skyrocketed, and she no longer needs to pull the zombies, Lin Wu used the slingshot to pull the zombies from more than ten meters away to Maya. During this period, due to Maya's distraction, Lin Wufeng was scratched to fill the position, which made Maya immediately change her strategy: make a serum injection first.

There is still a long way to go home, and there must be a lot of zombies to face. Although the old players are in good hands, there are traces of zombie behavior. But if you often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet?

On the second day of camping, Lin Ma gave up the attack and rode four kilometers along the side of the mountain, brushing up blood zombies in the blood mist area. At this time, Lin Wu, who was a survivor of the blood plague, became the main force of spawning zombies. Blood zombies are different from ordinary zombies, ordinary zombies scratch your skin and you may not be infected, only if you are bitten. The Blood Zombie Virus covers the whole body, and even if you don't touch it, as long as you are close to you, it may have a low chance of causing infection.

One of the most ferocious is the Blood Rage, which sweeps its palm within 30 centimeters of its head, and can infect players with 100% of the virus. was bitten by the blood frenzy, and the infection bar took off directly. However, there is a high chance that the blood will drop the serum violently, with an average of one vial of serum being dropped every three of them.

Mixed with painkillers or other medications, the serum makes a serum injection. The hard-core serum injection is also divided into grades, among which biochemical experts and antibiotics can make a first-class serum injection, and its effect is the same as that of non-hard-core serum injection: eliminate all infections and immunize against viral infections within two hours.

Maya, a general practitioner, was only able to make grade 5 with painkillers: a 30% reduction in infection.

……

At 6:30 p.m. on the fifth day of camping, there were only more than 20 zombies left on the road, and only the last tremor was needed to break through the passage. Maya halted the attack, citing the fact that it was a night of glimmer. Lin Wu didn't refute, and returned to the tent with Maya and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

It's indeed a glimmery night, but there's still an hour before it gets into the night. Lin Wu knew that Maya didn't want to reveal the mystery too early, and she needed time to adjust her mentality.

In the middle of the night, Maya sat outside her tent and lit a bonfire. Lin Wu didn't bother Maya, he knew that she needed time alone.

In the early hours of the morning, the two began to pack their belongings. Put away your tent at 1 a.m. At seven o'clock in the morning, after putting away the tent and having breakfast, Lin Ma headed for the road. In one night, the zombies refreshed three, and there was no problem, and it took 10 minutes to hack all thirty zombies to death.

Turn left on the road and take the ramp, there are still scattered zombies here, just chop as you go. The ramp makes a large circle to reach the highway, and the road sign is erected 30 meters away from the ramp entrance. It is a 1.7 meter tall road sign with a small font and its back to Limma.

The two approached 10 meters of the road sign, and Maya said, "You wait for me here." ”

With that, Maya walked to the front of the sign and quietly looked at the message on it. Lin Wu couldn't read the message from her expression, but Lin Wu could read a message from her long stillness: this road was not Route 99.

Maya holds the sign in one hand and closes her eyes and places her forehead on the back of her hand. Lin Wu walked over, to be precise, around the back of Maya.

The worst life is not that there is no hope, but that it gives you a little hope in the midst of despair.

Route 77, 3,500 kilometers from Star City, is desperate. In the row of locations below, Lin Wu saw a familiar place: 1,800 kilometers from the small town of Leman. The small town of Leman is located 250 kilometers from Zuo County. Both Route 77 and Route 99 connect to the town of Lemmon. The difference is that Highway 99 from Fantasy City only takes 750 kilometers to get to Zuo County. It takes more than 2,000 kilometers to get to Zuo County from Highway 77.

Maya sat on the ground and hugged her knees, leaning on the road sign in a quiet daze, Lin Wu approached, and Maya spoke first: "I want to be quiet for a while, alone, thank you." ”

Lin Wu left without saying a word, returned to the ramp, sat on the guardrail, and let Xiao Crooked lie on his knees. He also wanted to be quiet.

Is it more than two thousand kilometers? Not much if all goes well. It has been 45 days since the first day of autumn, and 45 days are still before winter. In the last 45 days, they have traveled from Tech City to Dada Fantasy City, a distance of 1,300 kilometers between the two big cities.

Strictly speaking, this 1300 km was not smooth. After deducting the 15 days spent circling Fantasy City and the total 10 days spent cleaning up the bridgehead checkpoint and the refinery, they covered 1,300 kilometers in 20 days. After deducting the time wasted leaving the road and entering the town, he stayed in the Yunmeng tribe and was blocked by crossing the river. There is also the harsh environment of the desert, which leads to the objective reasons for the inefficiency of their marches.

The average daily distance is about 80 kilometers.

Theoretically, 2,000 kilometers is only 25 days. But the 1,300-kilometer experience has taught Lin Wu that the 2,000-kilometer journey will never be smooth.

In addition, Lin Wu became curious about the town of Lemmon, why do the road signs on Highway 99 and Highway 77 specifically mention this town? Everyone else is in the north and in the south, why is it called Leman Town? According to previous information, there is an air force stationed in the small town of Leman, as well as a dual-use airport.

750 becomes 2000, which is not too harmful to Lin Wu, and he has the ability to comfort himself in adversity. He realized that 750 km was not necessarily better than 2,000 km. What made Lin Wu care was Maya, he only knew Maya's outstanding character, but he didn't know Maya's specific character. From the current point of view, the road signs have hurt Maya a lot, at least for Maya to temporarily lose her fighting spirit.

……

I don't know how long it took, but it was so long that Lin Wu fell asleep until he felt that the sun was blocked. Lin Wu looked up and saw Maya standing beside him.

Maya regained her calm expression: "Let's go." ”

"Lemmon Town?"

"The town of Lemmon."

After saying that, Maya turned over and walked slowly, Lin Wu looked at it and hurriedly shouted: "Hey, hey, this way." "It's going in the wrong direction.

Maya stopped her horse and returned to Lin Wu's side, as if she hadn't reacted yet, and asked, "Wrong?" ”

Lin Wu explained: "The road sign faces southwest, and it is for people coming from the southwest, not for people with their backs to the road signs. "Is this girl stupid?

"Wait." Maya remembered something: "That means there are two road signs?" One for people in the southwest, and one for people in the northeast. ”

Lin Wu hates this, and when people have accepted the reality, a little bit of pitiful hope is born. Maya rode away, Lin Wu could only follow, and after running for about two kilometers, he saw another road sign, which was on the side of another ramp into Fantasy City.

This is not a highway separated by the front and back lanes, is it necessary to do so?

Maya hand dotted on the road sign: 1200 km from the city of the future. There is no mention of the small town of Leman.

It's not hope, it's a choice, I'm X your dawn.

The first option is to walk 2,000 kilometers northeast to reach the town of Leman.

The second option is to walk 1,200 kilometers southwest to the city of the future.

Lin Ma knows the approximate location of the town of Leman, which is 250 kilometers away from Zuo County. But they still don't know the exact location of Beicheng, let alone Future City. When they arrived in Future City, there were many choices, one choice was that they had to find a way to go to Beicheng and then to Zuoxian. One option is to find the way to escape to the town of Beishang.

"The devil doesn't want us to go home." Maya took two steps back, looked at the signpost, and said, "But I believe that our will can overcome everything." ”

Lin Wu accompanied him and asked carefully: "Then which direction shall we go?" He felt that there was no difference between the two sides, and the devil knew which side was easy to go.

Maya said: "Leman Town, since we have decided on Leman Town, we can't change our decision without overwhelming information. Even if our decision is wrong, we must be brave and determined to move forward. "We must not let one of the two disturb the morale of the military.

When you make a decision, you have to forget about the other decision, and don't think about what would have happened if you had made another decision.

Lin Wu got on the horse: "Let's go!" "The silly woman has become shrewd again, and more determined. Lin Wu never believed in the ghost truth that setbacks can make people grow, and he believed that setbacks could only increase psychological trauma. But this idea can't be applied to Maya, who is the more frustrated she becomes. Well...... Beat her every day, the stronger she will become, maybe one day she will be able to tear the Big Mac apart.

Remember Maya once asked Lin Wu, what were you thinking when you were on the road? Actually, you can think about anything.

……

The next few days went very smoothly, the first day of the total journey of 150 kilometers, overnight at the base of the abandoned hut built by the roadside, and the phantom also ate the water and grass by the stream. Fishing and hunting at night, resting in the early morning.

After breakfast at 8 o'clock the next day, I continued to hurry after abandoning the base. The total distance is 150 km. Bivouac.

On the third day, the total journey is 100 kilometers, and the tent is spread out at 2 p.m., hunting, fishing, and digging wild vegetables.

In three days, Lin Ma walked 400 kilometers, and it would only take half a month to return to Zuo County at this speed, which was about the same time as it took to circle Fantasy City.

On the fourth day, there was no rush, but another day of rest in place, with the aim of stockpiling food. Although I have also found time to hunt and fish in the past three days, I have fewer resources and am not familiar with the environment, so I have been eating my old book. Although there are mountains and rivers along the way, the prey resources of ordinary mountain forests cannot be compared with those of rainforests.

In the case of fishing, for example, the fish in the rainforest river are not only large, but also devouring fiercely. Highway 77 is a river with crucian carp and grass carp, which not only takes time to nest, but also requires great vigilance and patience on the part of anglers.

The rainforest is teeming with a variety of animals. Mammals are rare in the woods, mostly small things such as squirrels and pheasants, which can either climb trees or fly, and no animal wants to fight to the death with the forest fog.

Stockpiling food is only for the purpose, and the reason for stockpiling food is the information indicated by road signs. Starting in fifty kilometers, Route 77 will enter the volcanic terrain for about 300 kilometers.

From the camp, you can see the gray sky in the distance, and it is clear that there are active volcanoes in the volcanic area. According to the Maya, it was difficult to find food in areas where the volcanoes were more active. There are rivers, but they are boiling or lukewarm, and the fish will never survive. Volcanic ash causes the migration and extinction of native flora and fauna.

Compared to natural disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes, volcanic eruptions are relatively gentle. Lava flows slower and erupts have a limited area of damage. Excluding the ignition of forest fires, the biggest hazard is volcanic ash after eruption, which is very damaging to the environment.

This stretch of road is not a desert, but rather a desert. The 300-kilometer journey was very awkward, and considering the needs of the Phantom Sand Erma, it was necessary to camp at least once. What to do if a volcanic eruption? What else can I do? Tents send dawn, greetings to home. Considering the possibility of a volcanic eruption with a low probability, the greater difficulty should be the landform formed by the eruption. For example, cooling magma blocking roads and rocks ejected from mountains.

"How much more food?"

Maya counted her backpack and horse bag and said, "Two days." "Why don't you stock up on more food in the jungle of Fantasy City? Because the tent base cannot be built as a storehouse, the load of people and horses is limited. Because of the lessons of the past, the amount of water carried is super doubled.

After putting away the tent, Lin Wu asked, "Are you going?" ”

Maya turned over and got on her horse: "Let's go." ”
