Chapter 49 Deep in the Cradle
"Peace is fought!"
Zhang Ping sighed. Now, the city guards are much more honest.
But it was not safe along the way - there were too many metal life, and everyone rushed all the way. But at least they wouldn't worry about the shells flying overhead.
It was not until I reached the first safe point that I could breathe.
Hou Zhikun pointed ahead, "It's safer in front, everyone can rest. Be careful not to make noise, and don't use force."
Zhang Ping couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so beautiful! But I always feel it's a bit dangerous!"
The so-called "safety point" is a small valley with misty "crystal red mist" circling, which is a pure level 1 source force.
It happened to be the sunset that was red, and the sunset was in harmony with the source power, like a dream.
But... are there too many metal life in front of you? This is the safest point you always say? We are delivering food at home.
Hou Zhikun responded without hesitation: "What do you think is a safer thing? There is not a mutant creature? How is that possible? This is inside the cradle!
In fact, this phenomenon is easy to explain. I heard that lions and zebras can drink water together without attacking them during the dry season of the African savannah.”
Zhang Ping suddenly realized, "But I heard that the lion would finish the water first and bite the zebra in one bite."
Hou Zhikun smiled and said, "Sorry, the teacher below didn't teach you."
“…”
Everyone approached the edge of the valley carefully, but did not enter.
In the valley, metal beasts fiercely compete for the innermost position;
Outside the valley, the metal beast turned a blind eye to Zhang Ping and others!
As long as you support a simple barbed wire, don’t be too big, metal beasts will take a detour.
Zhang Ping exclaimed: "Everything will turn its back. Nature is always full of magic."
Hou Zhikun sat next to Zhang Ping and sighed: "Beasts also have the wisdom of wild animals. If they don't attack us, we will save our combat effectiveness."
In the distance, the other three teams also arrived, and we all quietly became a good boy.
Zhang Ping's eyes dripped around, "How about throwing rockets to them now?"
Hou Zhikun shook his head: "There will be more rockets bounce back. Do you want to try it? It will make a lot of money!"
After a short rest for half an hour, Hou Zhikun gave a detailed explanation of the next task.
It was already dusk and everyone was about to set off.
But at this moment, a fierce quarrel broke out in the distance.
The effect was very good, and the metal beasts around him instantly showed caring eyes.
Zhang Ping stood up and looked: "It's from the Wanli Mercenary Group and the Feihong Adventure Group. What are they doing? Alas, the fight started!"
Before he finished speaking, a voice shouted: "The Feihong Adventure Group knew a passage to enter the core of the cradle!"
"Crash..." Most of the old soldiers turned their heads and exclaimed.
Even the armed personnel stared at the two teams in chaos with bright eyes.
But what Zhang Ping is more concerned about is the passage to the depths of the cradle!
In the past two days, Zhang Ping has also gained a deep understanding of the "metal life ecosystem" - there are good things in the depths of the cradle, such as the Heart of Steel.
But the problem is that on Yanxia Mountain, everyone can explore the outer periphery of the cradle at most; let alone explore the inner circle, it is difficult to get close to it!
Although there are only level 0 and level 1 life in the cradle, there are too many, so many that they are almost invisible to the ground.
So, what if there is a secret passage that can enter the inner circle?
So, after Zhang Ping heard this, his heart jumped straight to abnormality.
If I could find any "first generation source species" here, can I become a saint... a transfer to an alchemist? I don't need to go to the old city anymore!
Thinking about the situation in the old city, Zhang Ping's scalp became numb.
Excited, he heard Hou Zhikun say thoughtfully: "No wonder the Feihong Adventure Group is so strong and arrogant this time. This makes sense!"
A few minutes later, everyone calmed down and gathered around.
The surrounding metal beasts surrounded them, and the four directions were staring at each other.
Xu Minghao, the leader of the Feihong Adventure Group, looked ashen. But he still said calmly: "Everyone, do you believe this?
Four years ago, Daguding was controlled by the Hellfire Adventure Group and had no choice but to do with us."
Hou Zhikun sneered: "Then why did you appear here?"
Many people burst into laughter.
Although the Dakou Top is controlled by the Hellfire Adventure Group, the Dakou Top is too big. The Adventure Group only controls it, sorts out the access to the mountain, and charges "tolls".
If you want to explore the cradle, just do whatever you want, remember to follow the rules.
Anyway, without the support of a strong team, ordinary small teams can't go far. The good thing is still from the Hellfire Adventure Group.
In fact, there is more than one passage into the mountain, but the Hellfire Adventure Group controls the best one. You can also walk in other locations, such as the Wanli Mercenary Group.
So, it would be normal if there is any secret that the Hellfire Adventure Group doesn't know on the top of Dakou.
Look, Xie Weidong was laughing: "This is my first time here, and I don't know much about some situations.
But this time, the Feihong Adventure Group first attacked strongly, and then shook hands with the Hellfire Adventure Group to make peace and explore together.
Don't you think this is done strangely?"
Xu Minghao was silent. After a long time, he stared at a guy next to him: "Why betray me!"
The man stood in the camp of the Wanli Mercenary Group and said coldly: "Do you know how my brother died?"
Without waiting for Xu Minghao to speak, the man said directly: "It was our brave and respectable regiment commander who caught him and blocked the shells, and he couldn't even fight the corpse!"
Xu Minghao grinned his teeth a little. He took a deep breath and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter. I want to go out and ask the team leader."
The other three teams slowly surrounded the Feihong Adventure Group.
When it is time to cooperate, never hesitate.
…………
More than an hour later, the four teams finally broke through the crazy metal beast and stood on the ridge.
Xu Minghao pointed to the front and roared: "Did you see it? There is the passage there.
Two days ago, our people discovered the landslide. At that time, the metal beasts here were scattered and very safe.
But now, I don't know.
When we came here just now, more than 200 people worked together and fought for more than an hour!"
Zhang Ping looked at the "cradle" ahead, which was spectacular.
In the center of the three peaks, there is a red "sea of clouds", which are vast and dancing like clouds and smoke.
There are irregular branches in the middle of the sea of clouds, like red corals, spreading in all directions; eventually, "small cradles" of large and small on the surrounding mountains.
The small cradle breeds different metal life; it is surrounded by dense metalized animals and plants that are protected by plants.
Everyone’s usual collection points are these ‘small cradles’.
The more inward the "small cradle" is, the bigger the guardian animals and plants are, but the more dangerous it is. Zhang Ping even saw a bunch of metal ants covering a range of hundreds of meters.
All the cradles of all sizes form a huge ecological network of metal life.
But now this ecological network is not perfect because...a mountain has fallen on landslides.
For the cradle, this is a real 'natural disaster'.
