"My name is Scott, this is my partner, Mia." After Pete left, the young man in black soft armor pointed to another slender and tall woman in black armor next to him, and said to Du Dian and others: "In these ten In the scavenging of the sky, we are the captain of this operation, and everyone should follow my command, if something goes wrong, it will not be good for everyone, and if you return to the consortium, there will be no small punishment."
Hearing the punishment, Macon, Zach and several other surly children immediately obeyed and complied with their promises honestly.
Scott said to Du Di'an: "Little guy, what's your name?"
"Dudian."
"The potential is good." Scott nodded slightly and said, "But don't be arrogant. In front of the god of death, potential is meaningless. You will follow me later, and I will tell you something that needs attention."
Is this what it means to teach by hand? Du Di'an couldn't help but greatly increased his favorability to this person, nodded slightly, and expressed his understanding.
When the people behind heard this, how could they not know that this was to focus on cultivating Du Di'an. For a time, many people were secretly jealous, but they were just angry and didn't say anything.
After all, Du Di'an's seed identity is there, and he also received two blessings, whether it is force or identity, they can't shake it. Moreover, there are three brothers in the same room behind Du Di'an, who are the strongest and most united group of them. Even children who are short-tempered and irrespective of the consequences do not dare to provoke Du Di'an and Mei, Zha, Sand three.
"Well, this is your dry food and water for the past ten days. Each of you will take one for yourself. This time I will bring it for you. Next time you go to the headquarters to get it yourself." Scott pointed to a dozen black people on the ground next to him. backpack said.
Du Di'an looked at the black traveler's backpack, mentioned one before, untied the rope, and saw that there were some mud ball-like things in the backpack bag. He had seen it at Jula's house. It was a mashed potato ball. It tasted very bad, but It’s easy to be full… In other words, when you eat the next one, you lose your appetite and then eat the second one.
Mei, Zha, and Sha followed Du Di'an and quickly picked them up, choosing three backpacks that looked slightly larger.
Seeing that the people behind had to choose the same way as the three of them, Scott laughed: "Don't choose, they all have the same weight, this is given by the headquarters, there will never be a mistake, use your cleverness in the back. Bar."
Mei, Zha, and Sha sneered.
"What is this of you?" At this time, Scott noticed the black powder tube stuck in Du Dian's waist.
"Small gadgets, not worth mentioning." Du Di'an said: "It won't hinder me."
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.
Seeing him say that, Scott nodded, stopped talking, turned to the twenty consortium scavengers in the distance and said, "Come here and gather, ready to go."
These twenty consortium scavengers are all adults, with dark complexion, and some are older than Scott. At this moment, under Scott's call, they all gathered together. Their standard soft armor is the same as that of Du Di'an and others. The same is true for short sword weapons. Obviously, with the strong financial resources of the consortium, the supply of these hardware equipment can still be guaranteed.
"Boss Sco, which district are we going to today?" a skinny young man asked.
"District 8." Scott turned to the taciturn black armored woman 'Mia' and said, "It's not early, shall we go?"
Mia nodded slightly.
Scott waved, took the lead in opening the way, and said to Du Dian and other newcomers behind: "This outer edge area has been completely emptied, you don't have to worry about anything, save your physical strength first."
Hearing this, Du Dian and others thought the same, the tense muscles gradually loosened, and they looked around at the surrounding environment.
There is a wasteland nearby, and the ground is quite humid. Du Di'an noticed before that a lot of moss has climbed on the huge wall behind, which is completely different from the sandy terrain behind the huge wall.
"Is this the outside of the giant wall? It's completely different from what I imagined. I thought there were deserts everywhere." Macon, who was behind Du Di'an, looked around and said in surprise.
Zach said with a smile: "Now you don't have to worry about the water source. You can squeeze out the water by digging a hole in any place."
Scott in front heard what he said, glanced back at him, and said, "There are puddles everywhere on the ground. You don't need to dig them, so I'm afraid you won't dare to drink them."
"Huh?" Zach was stunned.
Du Di'an explained to him: "The radiation outside this giant wall is too high, even the water filtered by the soil is not drinkable. If you want to drink water, you need at least a deep water source below tens of meters to be suitable for the human body. We need to dig a few dozen meters with the strength now, which is the same as digging a few meters in the desert before.
Hearing Du Dian's words, Zach and several other children with puzzled expressions came to a realization.
Scott looked back at Du Dian, said nothing, and continued to lead the way. After walking for about ten miles, they suddenly came to a place with less vegetation on the ground. To be precise, they came to a ruin.
Seeing this ruin, Du Dian was stunned.
This... is actually a broken city?
In front of him, there was actually an asphalt street, but the street was covered with moss and lush vegetation. On both sides of the street were high-rise concrete buildings, and there were also two or three storeys of shops. At this moment, they all collapsed and were dilapidated, and some were crumbling on one side. The ground wall is isolated, covered with vegetation vines and moss, as if in a few years, it will be completely buried by these lush plants.
On the desolate streets, there are some broken clothes scattered. These messy clothes obviously have a very long age. They have been soaked in the disaster rain and covered with dust. They have long since turned into hard and black stone-like objects, only roughly shape outline.
Du Dian was completely stunned.
This... is exactly what a ruined city looks like!
Could it be that this is the appearance of the earth three hundred years after the outbreak of the disaster?
The prosperity of the past, the lights of civilization, the footprints of human beings all over the earth... Could it be that just like the ruins in front of me, only the empty shells after the disaster are left?
He suddenly felt as if something was blocking his chest, he couldn't breathe, and his eyes were a little wet.
"Dian, Dean?" Seeing that Du Dian suddenly stopped, Macon couldn't help patting him on the shoulder.
Du Dian came back to his senses and saw that Scott and Mia had walked into the street ahead, and quickly followed. However, when his soles stepped into this asphalt street covered by vegetation, he felt all kinds of feelings in his heart. The thoughts of his parents and sisters filled his mind like flames, but he understood very sadly that what passed away would never be forgotten again. I can't come back, this is reality, just as realistic as the ruins I see in front of me!
"This is District 9, which has already been scavenged." Seeing that the people behind him did not keep up in time, Scott turned around and waved: "Follow up quickly, don't waste your life."
Du Di'an pursed his lips slightly and lowered his head to follow him.
Passing along the way, Du Di'an saw that the street had been scavenged and extremely clean. Basically, except for the collapsed houses, there were no items left. There should be many scrapped cars on such a spacious street, but there is not a single one here. See, obviously, as Scott said, they have been scavenging back.
It's just that after these old technology products are picked up, why is the technology in the giant wall still so backward?
Could it be that it has been corroded for three hundred years in this place with severe nuclear radiation, and it has no research value?
He followed Scott and Mia, like a ghost, looking at everything that was once familiar, but could only be silent.
