Chapter 924

Chapter 924 Free State, Aboriginals with Sanctuary!

Walking along the track detected by No. 0, we encountered four extremely hidden trip mines, which were placed on the ground where there were footprints.

At the same time, the closer to the center, the more miscellaneous traps there will be.

Potato mines triggered by pedaling, induction mines hanging above the head, and even primitive pedal spikes.

Zero kept reporting the detection results, and at the same time gave the other party's approximate location.

A round manhole cover, about 80 cm in diameter.

All the footsteps gathered here and then disappeared. It seems that they went down here.

"In the sewers?"

This group of aborigines is much better at defending than those in the fifth floor area.

Even No. 0's detection ability was limited, and the signal was repeatedly prompted to receive strong interference.

Of course, it is also possible that the blue-purple slime mold grows more luxuriantly underground, crowding out the living space of a large number of other organisms. Once they are scattered, even if some signals can be sent out, they will be absorbed when they come back, and no valid information can be returned.

The time slowly extended, and signal waves scattered outward.

About four or five minutes later, No. 0's energy began to alarm again, and the power accumulated during the day to 2.98% plummeted to 0.1% again.

And it wasn't until then that his voice came in, barely projecting a calculated picture in front of his eyes.

"Master, after comprehensive calculation of all returns, we have obtained a rough model of the building under the manhole cover"

"Because there are a lot of slime mold attached to the building walls, unless you can go deep below, you can't continue to probe in."

on screen.

When the manhole cover went down about fifteen meters vertically, it became a steep slope.

Go down the steep slope until you reach the gate.

etc?

door?

Looking at the funnel-shaped downward passage, a square building model is linked.

Su Mo's eyes widened, and he instantly matched the identities of this group of people with one of the forces that Wasteland Wolf had confessed.

Free State!

The toughest gopher guy in Sunny Harbor City.

This is the only faction that existed widely before the Great War.

As early as in the peaceful age, they did not believe that human beings could develop controlled intelligent life, and they had a strong sense of crisis, fearing that the army of machines would gather to destroy the world.

At the same time, I don't believe that those rebels who shouted to return to the era of human control can completely reverse the technology that human beings have developed for more than two hundred years.

Joining the Free State means that these people believe that the final war will definitely come.

Whether it's the factional struggle between the two parties, or the rampage of intelligent life, or even the disasters that may be brought back by leaving through the singularity of time and space.

They have been building bunker shelters underground that can withstand nuclear disasters since before the war, and they have stockpiled a large amount of emergency supplies that can survive difficult times.

They rarely recruit ordinary people who know nothing. Those who can join either have a technology or scientists who don't believe in artificial intelligence.

Naturally, such a choice makes the gophers weaker in frontal conflicts, and basically suffers losses in collisions of forces of the same scale. Provoke.

Wuhe, explained in the original words of Wasteland Wolf.

Gophers hold grudges the most!

As long as you get married and are targeted by them, you will face endless attacks.

The large number of pre-war weapons they keep in their hands will cause headaches for any force, so that even if they suffer a loss for a long time, no one dares to provoke these people.

If it weren't for the slow passage of time, those materials began to be consumed, and the gopher guy himself didn't have the ambitions of other forces, and only wanted to live in peace and restore civilization.

Otherwise, it would not be difficult for the entire Qinggang City to be united by them.

"Fortunately, I didn't go in rashly just now and step on their trap."

"It's troublesome to be targeted by this group of people."

Su Mo moved back, staring at the manhole cover, his eyes gradually became serious.

If it's the gophers of the Free State, it's not uncommon for them to have cotton in their hands.

Some large free state strongholds, and even large industrial facilities that were preserved before the war, can work as long as they are connected to the power supply.

In addition, their bunker shelters were built with pre-war technology and tools. There is no doubt that they are strong, and their functions are definitely much stronger than all the underground shelters on the wasteland.

It is very likely that they have established a large planting base underground.

Even if you surround this group of people for a period of time, you can be self-sufficient and be a shrinking turtle.

"It seems that we need to accumulate more power."

In any case, without the support of No. 0, the underground would definitely be impossible to explore.

Su Mo sighed, turned and left reluctantly.

"It would be great if we could collect the gene of one of these gophers, or arrange the signals of the virtual reality."

Collect the opponent's genes and put them into the imprint according to the way the demons make templates, so that they can achieve perfect camouflage and easily sneak into the interior for investigation. And the deployment of the virtual reality signal can directly paralyze the human beings in this area and completely lose their defenses.

However, the former needs to catch a person quietly without attracting attention, while the latter needs to invent a signal penetration ability stronger than No. 0 to break through the signal blocking of those slime molds.

Neither method is too difficult.

But fortunately, the other party has not discovered that he has been exposed, and there is still some time to plan.

"Boss, you're back, do you see where those people are stationed?" Looking at the black figure appearing in the ruins, Feng Long heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried up to ask.

"A gang of gophers, underground."

"A man from the Free State?"

"Well, this matter needs to be considered in the long run. Right now we have no way to sneak into their area to investigate, even if they have some urgently needed supplies in their hands."

Now Su Mo finally felt the mentality of those gangsters cursing their mothers in front of the solid underground shelter when they first traveled to the wasteland.

Hiding underneath is really safe, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

"The only thing we're lucky about now is that this group of people doesn't look like those damned predators."

"At least they still have some rules, and they don't have the idea of ​​provoking others."

The plan to explore the western suburbs of Qinggang City was temporarily shelved after the zero energy was exhausted and shut down.

Carrying some harvest from today's search, the group made a big detour, and then turned back to the territory from another place.

A few days before the arrival, these aborigines hadn't noticed that there was a fertile open space around them, and they didn't receive the threat of nuclear radiation, nor did they have a large number of mutated creatures occupying them.

But paper can't hold fire, and the territory will always be discovered in a short time.

At that time, there will be more and more conflicts between the two sides. It is necessary to obtain cotton as soon as possible to promote the completion of the bullet production line.

around four o'clock in the afternoon.

After circling around the territory, Su Mo led the Longming team back to the military camp around the village.

A bit of lucky news.

On the west side of the territory bordering the Demon Soul Clan, there is indeed a lush forest, with a large number of original trees waiting to be felled. Looking at the scale, as long as this transportation line can be opened in a short period of time, there must be no shortage of high-quality wood.

Fanatical construction apprentices will rush in with the guys in their hands, gaining exponentially increased experience.

It is enough to foresee that before the woods are completely cut down, this place will be a treasured leveling place exclusively for architectural apprentices.

On the northern side of the territory, the buffer zone bordering the dwarves, the terrain has undergone earth-shaking changes.

A large circular pit appeared on the ground, and there were still many charred ruins left in it.

Afraid of danger, Su Mo didn't dare to go in and investigate.

But I didn't see the disgusting blue-purple slime mold, which can basically confirm that these ruins should not come from the blue star of the butterfly universe, and there should be no threat from this direction in a short time.

As for the southern part of the territory, the buffer zone next to the thousands of miles of mountains.

This place is still wrapped in a large amount of gray-white fog, which has no intention of coming soon.

Unable to guess the idea of ​​the game, Su Mo was not in a hurry and chose to ignore it.

"The bryophyte that can absorb signals you mentioned is the thing in the bottle?" Lu Kuan hurried over from the research institute, and saw the glass bottle in Su Mo's hand from a long distance away.

Some scraped black-purple moss was placed inside, wriggling slightly along the bottle wall.

Unlike ordinary moss, this thing is alive at first glance.

Its interior has broken away from the basic structure of moss, and has begun to expand towards a brand new unknown biological system under the cultivation of radiation and a special environment.

I don't know if the source of the moss has not been completely eliminated. The system cannot scan out the property of the moss.

In order to find a way to deal with this thing as soon as possible, we can only let Lu Kuan and others try to study it first.

"You can take it back and test it, don't feel bad, there are plenty of these things."

"In Qinggang City on the east side of the territory, this thing has covered almost every tall building. It's too difficult to deal with."

Lu Kuan took it, shook it in his hand, and took out a small instrument from his pocket.

Press it, and the signal wave is emitted.

"Hey, can you really absorb it?"

A curious expression appeared on Lu Kuan's face. It was the first time he had seen a plant that could absorb signals.

"If this thing can be applied to individual combat, and it can't be attached to the vehicle, it is a natural shield. It can completely allow fighters or tanks to break through the detection of radar waves and become an invisible killer."

With this moss, why study invisible paint?

With such a powerful signal absorption ability, as long as its structural principle can be deciphered, it is simply invincible.

However, Su Mo, who was standing beside him, immediately reacted.

"No wonder, they should have actively added this moss prevention monitoring in their building."

Lu Kuan looked over suspiciously, but did not understand the meaning of this sentence.

On the other hand, Feng Long next to him was very winking, and quickly stepped forward to explain:

"We found a group of gophers from the Free State in Qinggang City. We followed the traces they left behind to check. Their base was built underground, and the entrance and exit were just a small manhole cover."

"The signal is blocked, and we cannot detect what is going on inside."

Su Mo nodded.

"That's pretty much it, but I still got some basic information."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. No, just leave it to Zhuo Junfan." Lu Kuan changed his voice and said, "He has been nagging in the virtual reality every day, and now he finally found a good job for this guy."

"Okay, I will give him the task of researching this thing, and tell me that if you can research and decipher the principle inside, the reward is."

Raising his hand, Su Mo shook the demon spirit mark on his arm.

Lu Kuan was slightly taken aback, but then laughed, with a "sinister" arc drawn from the corner of his mouth.

"Don't worry, I understand."

evening.

The night market in the village was a little earlier than yesterday.

Almost just after six o'clock in the afternoon, those food stalls that had tasted the sweetness were set up, and there was a scent that made people feel greedy and flustered.

After a night of "difficult choices", in order to keep up with the pace of market updates and always maintain his competitiveness, Ma Haoge finally launched the star products that every ramen shop must have.

beef ramen!

The price is 15 iron coins!

"I swear, this ramen is definitely the best noodle I've ever eaten in Wasteland.

"It's really delicious. This soup is so fresh. I was not late yesterday. I was so hungry that I didn't fall asleep with a bowl!"

"Beef ramen is worth half a crossbow. What kind of local tyrant can afford it?"

"Boss, bring me a bowl of vegetarian ramen and add more soup, I like soup!"

"Brother in front, if we partnered up, I would still like to eat noodles, not soup~"

"roll!"

"By the way, is it really that delicious?"

It was not yet the most prosperous time of the night market, but there were only a lot more people gathered in front of the stall than yesterday.

Walking along the line to the front, staring at the menu for a few moments, Su Mo took out two copper coins from his pocket.

"Give me a bowl of beef ramen."

"Okay, thank you so much? Your lord is here again!"

Hearing the sign that someone was willing to order a stall so early, Ma Haoge raised his head excitedly.

The next second, when he realized that he was the lord again, he became even more excited.

"Sit down quickly, I'll give you something to eat right now."

After being greeted to sit down, Ma Haoge returned to the cutting board, trembling all over.

Compared with making money, the temptation to upgrade is undoubtedly greater!

He didn't forget the pleasure of directly upgrading to a level after finishing the bowl of noodles yesterday.

But it's a pity that until the sliced ​​beef noodles were served in front of Su Mo, the reminder to complete the hidden task did not pop up again.

"Hey guy, the beef ramen has so much beef, it seems like a good deal?"

"That's right, it costs a lot of money to buy so much meat at the logistics office?"

"Would you like to have a bowl, we have a joint venture, and share the beef on it?"

"I think it's okay, I'll pay you five iron coins!"

After looking at the portion of the first bowl of beef noodles, many people who are still queuing behind can't help but move.

After waiting until Su Mo left after eating, these people quickly posted it after discussing it.

"Boss Ma, a bowl of noodles, beef ramen."

"okay."

Ma Haoge chuckled, his eyes swept over the expectant faces of these people.

Snapped.

A bowl of noodles was placed on the table.

"Grass? Why are there only three pieces? It's still cut so thin!"

"That's right, I just saw that the Lord's bowl of noodles is full of meat!"

"Meng Ren, I'm going to complain to the village chief about you!"

Looking at the beef that was only enough for one person, the people who were still planning a joint venture suddenly trembled.

Good guy!

The feeling of being in control of a ramen shop is back!

This piece of meat, which is as thin as a cicada's wings, makes people have no doubt whether it can be blown away by the wind.

"Go away, that's the lord, are you talking about the lord?"

"Besides, if anyone can upgrade me, I will eat noodles for free in the future!"

Picking up the rolling pin on the chopping board, Ma Haoge lightly smashed it, the meaning being self-evident.

"But."

"Forget it, for the sake of your second bowl, I'll give you another slice."

Another piece of meat was taken out of the small bowl at the back.

The scene turned into three people divided into four pieces.

The three people who had just said they wanted to complain suddenly "fighted" and went to the side with their bowls to argue.

Looking at these people, he glanced at the back of the person walking towards the stall next to him.

Ma Haoge couldn't help shaking his head, feeling extremely sorry.

Ramen without meat is equivalent to rice rolls without soy sauce.

But the frequent natural disasters in the waste soil are too difficult to spread the breeding industry, and there is no such a long growth time to form a scale.

"Hey, it would be great if we could get something like plant meat that could replace beef."

He sighed softly, grasped the Tianyuan coins in his pocket, and some new ideas could not help but arise in his mind.
