In the courtyard of the martial arts hall, it was empty, surrounded by large lights illuminating the entire courtyard, but in the surrounding houses, it was only a large area of pitch black.
Only the study room is bright. If you look from the outside to the inside, you can clearly see a silhouette leaning against a wicker chair, as if sleeping.
...
"Huh~"
"Woo~"
When Lin Tuo transferred his consciousness to the clone and began to fall to the land, the first sound he heard was the howling of the cold wind.
The wind is not too big, but it is probably because it passes through the nearby mountains and produces some kind of reverberation. Therefore, it is particularly loud and swallows, as if the earth is crying.
Eyelashes quivered, opened his eyes, facing him, the cold wind rolled with fine snow dust and poked his face straight.
The chill drilled from the neckline, neck, into the clothes, and Lin Tuo, who was far beyond ordinary, also shivered subconsciously.
"It's cold!"
This thought came to him.
And subconsciously tightened the zipper of the thick jacket...Before entering, he judged that the temperature in the sand table was very low.
Therefore, first put the clone into the martial arts hall in the sand table, found out the light down jacket, cotton shoes and gloves for the winter, and fully armed himself.
Although with his current body, he can hold it in single clothes in winter, but he is not a masochist, and he naturally wants to keep warm if he has the conditions.
At the moment, this decision is wise.
I looked around vigilantly. In my field of vision, there was a dim wilderness, very empty, with mountains behind, and not far in front of me was a dilapidated highway.
There was a layer of snow that was not too thick on the ground below. Obviously, it was in severe winter.
At this moment, it was about dawn, and there was still a distance from dawn.
Lin Tuo adjusted to the environment and confirmed that there was no danger in his surroundings, then raised his head and looked up at the sky.
In the dim night, there are wisps of black clouds above your head, and only a few starlight penetrates through the gaps, barely providing a certain view.
"It's better than I expected." Lin Tuo took off a glove and exposed his right hand to the air.
In addition to the cold, he could vaguely feel a tingling pain.
The ether in the body is more active than usual.
"Radiation." Lin Tuo spit out the word softly, his eyes heavier.
From the description of the operation log, he judged that the "annihilation bomb" that caused the disaster should be some kind of super weapon that is less powerful than nuclear weapons but similar in nature.
Although it is not a nuclear weapon, it is clear that the energy from its explosion still produces a phenomenon similar to "radiation".
And led to the death of countless lives.
Before Lin Tuo came in, he was mentally prepared. He believed that since many ordinary people here could survive, the self who was already tempering his body couldn't hold it without reason.
Things are as he expected.
"This level of radiation can indeed cause me tingling, but it is very mild. As long as I don't stay for a long time, it is not a big problem."
Relaxing, Lin Tuo put on his gloves again and began to recognize the direction.
Recalling the condescending lights that seemed to be gathering places in this area before, he took a deep breath and ran at a constant speed along the dilapidated and completely impossible highway.
"Along this road, you should be able to find the city."
...
...
"rumble……"
At the same time, it was somewhere separated by a mountain from Lin Tuo.
If you raise the angle of view and look down from mid-air, you will find that there are three modified cars on the snow-paved wasteland, staged a chase battle.
The smaller one, leading the way, without driving lights, left the two cars behind and stumbled, like a mad cow galloping on the wasteland.
There was a hoarse roar.
Behind it, a little further away, the other two modified off-road vehicles turned on their lights unscrupulously, which seemed more "relaxed".
The ferocious and huge tires rolled up pieces of blizzard, leaving four deep ruts on the wasteland.
If you zoom in on the angle of view, you will find that there are soldiers in the car who are wearing black military coats and holding guns.
At this moment, a man with epaulettes sitting on the front co-pilot, obviously an officer, looked gloomy and said:
"Where are we?"
The back seat of the car.
A soldier heard the words, holding a flashlight, pressing a paper map on his knee with the other hand, looked at it, and replied:
"The mine town ahead is not far away. You can arrive in five minutes at most."
"Mining Town? It seems that the hunter should be running there. The car's fuel tank is not full. After running so far, it must be running out of fuel." The officer said.
Immediately, raising his voice, he shouted:
"Everyone, cheer me up, check the guns, and prepare to be arrested. If you let the opponent go and wait for the company to return, everyone will be punished!"
"Yes! Boss!"
The response sound is mixed with the sound of firearms pulling insurance.
...
Not long after, the outline of a small town appeared in their vision.
Collapsed buildings, dilapidated walls, and outside the town, there is still a dilapidated and corroded steel windmill, which looks like a ruin.
Only the sparse lights in the town indicate that there is human life.
When this group of soldiers' vehicles approached, there were waves of tyrannical dog barking in the town, and a burst of noise. Vaguely, there was flames emerging.
"Boss, the other party abandoned the car!" The driver of the car shouted, pointing to a stalled vehicle on the wasteland outside the mine town.
"Keep driving." The officer said, and at the same time, he pulled out a pistol and pulled the trigger in the sky.
"boom!"
Amid the low sound of breaking through the sky, the noise in the town suddenly stagnated, and the two cars drove along the dilapidated road into the square in the center of the town and stopped immediately.
I saw that many people had gathered in the town.
Compared to soldiers wearing thick uniforms with weapons, these people are much more miserable.
Most of them are short and thin, with dirty and tattered bodies, unkempt clothes, unkempt faces, dusty faces, and an unpleasant smell permeating their bodies.
Holding "weapons" such as wooden sticks or steel bars in their hands, they gathered together in horror and timidity, and looked here in awe.
Under the firelight, some people could still be vaguely seen, with obvious deformities on their bodies.
This is a refugee from Mine Town.
"Where is the person in charge here?" As a group of soldiers jumped out of the car holding their guns, they carefully swept their guns around.
The officer squinted his eyes and asked sharply.
No one answered.
There is only panic on the faces of the refugees.
"Here! Here!" Suddenly, there was a commotion behind the crowd.
A nervous but full of breath sounded.
The crowd dispersed like a tide, and a middle-aged man with a shabby cotton jacket on the upper body and a relatively intact overalls squeezed out.
Behind him, followed by a few thugs holding rifles.
However, compared to the guns in the hands of these soldiers, those ragged rifles are no different from fire sticks, and their deterrence is far greater than their actual effectiveness.
"Sir, I am the person in charge of Mine Town. I wonder if you have any orders?"
The person in charge quickly glanced at the clothing of these soldiers and the emblem on the car behind him, and said with a smile.
While speaking, he deliberately stood up, making the shiny metal badge hanging on his chest more conspicuous.
The badge has a brass texture, with a burning flame embossed on it, and the background is a forest standing in a snowy field.
That is the emblem of Burning Fire Company.
"We are on an arrest mission," the officer looked down at him expressionlessly. "A wilderness hunter stole company property and killed our people. The other party abandoned the car and entered the town not long ago."
Speaking of this, the officer suddenly raised his head slightly, his towering nose fluttered, and said:
"I confirm that the target is in this town and has not left. Now, you, immediately summon everyone to help us search for it! Did you hear clearly?"
...
...
at the same time.
In a collapsed building in the southwest corner of the town's central square.
A figure looked through the window and looked at a scene in the square. His eyes flickered, and then the figure moved silently, disappearing like a civet cat.
...
not far away.
In another shadow, Lin Tuo, wearing a black down jacket, slowly walked out of the darkness and glanced at the disappearing figure, revealing a thoughtful expression.
