Hearing Jiang Baimian's words, Long Yuehong felt like she had suddenly realized it, and she seemed to have fallen into a dream.
He couldn't help but looked around again, completely unable to associate the "unintentional" who carefully cleaned the fallen leaves and wiped the windows with the inherent image in his mind.
On the way to the "Urban Wisdom Network Control Center", the "old tune group" did not encounter the "unintentional" in the ruins. They are the same as their counterparts outside, fierce, irrational, full of aggressiveness and strong hunting. Instinct, as if it had degenerated to the stage when humans just got rid of the state of beasts.
At that time, if someone told Long Yuehong that the "unintentional" here would sweep the floor, clean the windows, and maintain the wiring, he would definitely sneer and treat it as a joke.
And now, this scene was so real in front of his eyes.
Looking at it, the street lights in the distance are continuous, and the people are fascinating. I don't know how many "unintentional people" "light up" in the city again, then return to the street, come to the window, and do various things.
They are no longer vicious, and they no longer regard Long Yuehong and others as prey, and "conscientiously" complete their work "conscientiously", making the whole city show the difference and the previous prosperity.
At this moment, Long Yuehong felt that they seemed to be in another world. The two sides existed peacefully, and they could not establish contact.
While his thoughts turned, he heard Jiang Baimian sigh:
"It's like a silhouette projected from the old world from the past..."
"Why do they sweep the floor, wipe the windows, maintain the exterior walls and streets?" Shang Jianyao asked suddenly.
Long Yuehong replied subconsciously:
"It may be some kind of instinct. That's what they did in the old world. After becoming a'unintentional', it solidified into instinct..."
While talking, Long Yuehong's voice gradually became low until it disappeared.
He also found that his explanation was untenable, because the old world has been destroyed for nearly seventy years, and the "unintentional" here have not been replaced by many generations, and there are those who have lived and worked in the old world.
Finally, he forcibly added:
"That kind of instinct has been passed on from generation to generation after parents' demonstration and teaching.
"The descendants of the repairman are still repairing equipment, and the descendants of the cleaner are still cleaning the streets..."
Jiang Baimian laughed, before Shang Jianyao spoke:
"Don't put all the messy things into your genes, it will cause your body to collapse.
"Teaching is indeed possible, but this is at best useful for simple, repetitive tasks."
Bai Chen guarded the surroundings, and said thoughtfully:
"After many generations of reproduction, the current ‘unintentional’ can already learn more complicated things? No, even if they can learn, the previous generations will not, the corresponding technology must have been lost..."
"Someone may be teaching them and instilling some'instinct' in them." Shang Jianyao retracted his gaze and said his guess.
Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong, and Bai Chen also thought of Xiao Chong, the strange and mysterious boy before, and they couldn't refute Shang Jianyao's statement.
During the discussion just now, they all walked a few steps across the street, wanting to see more clearly the figures behind the bright windows.
A few seconds later, Long Yuehong looked at the "unintentional people" who were cleaning the street, repairing branches, and walking to other places in the distance, and said with emotion:
"This is the old world city scene?
"That's how people lived and worked back then?
"At that time, the night was so brightly lit, as if the stars were reflected on the ground?"
Because of these words, Jiang Baimian raised his head again and looked at the opposite building.
On each floor, there are more than one-third of the windows showing yellowish or whitish light. Inside, "people" come and "people" go, clean the windows, or "watch" TV, or coax "children". ", or chopped the cutting board, although no sound came out, Jiang Baimian intuitively felt the "lively" and "booming".
At this moment, she seemed to have gone back decades ago, when the old world was not destroyed, and she smelled the breath of life.
As his eyes moved upward, Jiang Baimian's pupils suddenly enlarged.
She saw a red dot shaking on the top of a tall building not far away.
This seems to come from a sniper rifle.
"Hide forward!" Jiang Baimian yelled, and leaped to the side of the road, and hid in an open house.
With a snap, the hard ground splashed with gravel where she was standing.
Thanks to their previous experience, Shang Jianyao, Bai Chen, and Long Yuehong didn’t doubt the group leader’s command at all, and each responded at the first time, rushing into the
city intelligence
with different movements and attitudes. Inside the street-facing house opposite the side door of the
Internet Control Center
.
There were two snaps, and two more bullets came from the top of different buildings and penetrated into the ground.
Jiang Baimian hid his back against the wall in the room, took off the intercom, pressed the button, and said in a hurry:
"There are snipers on at least three roofs around.
"This style of coming to the source of the anomaly but not going in, just lying in ambush around, reminds me of a person.
"'Hyena'!"
This is the standard "hyena" bandit style.
This is not to say that they are the only ones who like to use similar methods, but that they are the most famous and probably the only one among the teams that are around and have at least three sniper rifles.
"Is this too insidious?" Long Yuehong took the walkie-talkie and blurted back.
The "Hyena" bandit group did not want to explore the anomaly, looking for more valuable things, and only intended to solve the retreat hunters who had withdrawn.
"They are bandits." Jiang Baimian responded with some amusement, "Fortunately, they should have been dazzled by the changes in the ruins of the city after the power supply was restored, and they didn't deal with us in the first time."
"But we were also affected by the changes in the ruins." Bai Chen simply defended.
"It's also possible that they climbed the twenty-odd floors, and we came out before they could breathe, and they also called, so they can use the elevator." Shang Jian Yao sighed inexplicably, "What a pity..."
Long Yuehong is very tacit:
"What a pity?"
"Unfortunately, I was attracted by the changes in the ruins, or else I could dance them a Gold Coast swing hula first." Shang Jianyao's tone showed obvious regret.
"...I look forward to such a day in the future." Jiang Baimian took the walkie-talkie and said casually, "The most important question now is how to get out of the ambush of the ‘hyena’? They definitely have more than just a sniper."
"The'hyenas' have armored vehicles, heavy machine guns, and bazookas. After they control our range of activities with snipers, they should send people over to sweep them." Bai Chen recalled all the news he had heard and calmly gave the most Possible development.
"What should I do?" Although Long Yuehong wasn't too alarmed, she still felt that she and others were dangerous.
Without the military exoskeleton device, they could not avoid heavy machine gun shooting in such a limited range, and neither grenade guns, rifles, or grenades could break through thick armor.
If the military exoskeleton device is still there, you can try it with electromagnetic weapons.
Jiang Baimian was silent for a few seconds, and issued an order through the walkie-talkie:
"There must be no snipers on the building of the'Urban Wisdom Network Control Center', and the'hyenas' dare not enter that area at all.
"So, we can go to the door and walk against the wall. This is their dead spot for shooting.
"After finding the position in advance, when the armored vehicle came, Bai Chen shot the machine gunner for the first time and suppressed him for a short time. If the fire control system of the armored vehicle is intact and the heavy machine gun can be operated in the vehicle, then I will try to give the shooting position. One shot of the'Thunder Spear', in short, the purpose is to create opportunities for Shang Jianyao to get close.
"Shang Jian Yao, when you go to the bottom of the armored vehicle, there is less than one meter away from the people in the vehicle. You can give full play to your abilities and save you from worrying about the threat of snipers."
Jiang Baimian named his electric eel-type biological prosthetic attack "Thunder Spear".
"Okay!" Shang Jian Yao seemed to want to do this a long time ago.
Bai Chen also responded.
Long Yuehong listened quietly, and said silently for two seconds:
"what have I done?"
"You cheer for me." Shang Jianyao said seriously.
As soon as the businessman saw Yao's voice, Jiang Baimian added:
"You are responsible for guarding the surroundings, what if it is not just armored vehicles that come?
"I will give you the grenade gun later."
Long Yuehong immediately replied loudly:
"Yes, leader!"
Jiang Baimian was about to say a few more words, suddenly turned his head and felt.
"Come on! There is only one car on the right side of the street." She quickly told Shang Jianyao and others about the information, and found a pair of metal scissors from the inside of the room~EbookFREE.me~Old Tune Team"Four people The members immediately returned to the door, moved against the wall, and went to different locations.
During this process, they exchanged some weapons to prepare for the next step.
Soon, the armored car appeared at the corner of the street.
It has three large wheels on one side, the armor surface is painted in military green, there is a door next to it, and the front has dark bulletproof glass.
It is more than twice the size of an ordinary vehicle, with an iron-black heavy machine gun mounted on the top, and something similar to an antenna is erected.
Long Yuehong just glanced at it, and words such as "steel", "hardness", "strength", "rolling", and "indestructible" came to mind.
At this moment, a sweet music quickly turned into the current street from far to near.
It was a big blue car with a huge metal can. It was lighting up its lights, playing music, and jetting water into the street.
In the driver's seat of the big car, an "unintentional man" in an orange and white old padded jacket was sitting there, manipulating the steering wheel in a slightly rigid manner.
His eyes were dull, and there was a black, peeling earphone hanging from his head.
The sprinkler illuminating the road ahead drove very fast and almost collided with the armored car coming out from the side.
With a squeak, the "unintentional" driver reflexively stepped on the brake and blocked the vehicle.
The driver of the armored vehicle had never encountered a similar situation and stopped the vehicle.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Baimian's eyes lit up and he shouted:
"Chance!"
In the brisk and melodious sprinkling music, she took a step forward, then pulled up her left arm.
The metal scissors in her hand were suddenly "wrapped" by the crackling silver-white electric snake.
