Chapter 250: The Deserter

Two days later, they finally arrived at another city, which, too, was a ruin.

This time, luck finally came to them. They found a dilapidated local city map in a suspected ruin of the railway station. Most of the maps were damaged, but some key information is still there, such as the specific location, city name and provincial road information.

These important information is undoubtedly a timely rain, and they finally do not need to rush around like headless flies.

However, the city has turned into ruins and has become unrecognizable. The group of people almost circled around the city and found the location of the provincial highway. It has almost completely merged with the surrounding green and is covered by a thick layer of vines. If it weren't for the map, the group would have ignored it long ago.

This vine is very strange. It has no leaves, only rough and flat branches entangled with each other, forming a thick carpet. The vines on the ground with the heavy soles of the giant lizard and the King Kong stepped on, breaking, making a crackling sound, and countless small mutant beasts fled in a panic.

As the team walked out of the city, plants similar to cactus gradually appeared in front of everyone. However, compared with ordinary cactus, these plants are astonishingly huge. They are almost one or two hundred meters high, higher than most trees, like cranes standing out in the flock. From a distance, they look like green skyscrapers.

"This is a super cactus, edible, and it is one of the main vegetables in the reconstruction area. We are not far from the desert." Corps Xia said excitedly when she saw these plants.

…………

After walking less than two hours, after passing by the intersection several times, the surrounding bad environment began to change significantly, the plants became sparse and low, and the soil was revealed for the first time, which was a kind of fine yellow and white sand.

This is already a desert or, before the end of the world, it was a desert, but now it is covered with plants, just slightly sparse.

The windbreak forests on both sides of the road seem to have been cut off several times, and the newly grown plants and the plants in the distance are much shorter. As we move forward, more and more abandoned vehicles on the road surface, and finally almost blocked the entire road, like a long dragon, extending to endless distances.

There are basically no cars here, most of them are modified buses and trucks, as well as some armored vehicles and tanks.

The ground was full of bones, including mutant beasts and humans, which simply covered the entire road. If you distinguish it carefully, the road surface would appear light brown, which was dry blood.

Some jewelry, gold bars, and antique fragments seemed to be scattered on the road for no money, mixed with the bones, and the banknotes had already rotted.

It can be imagined that when we first migrated, humans almost shed blood all the way, and the corpses were paved with the road.

The scene in front of everyone made everyone feel heavy and they couldn't help but think of the bad past.

However, the emergence of these shows that the reconstruction area is not far away!

At this time, Luo Yuan seemed to be talking. He followed the sound and was slightly stunned: "Hey, someone!"

"What, where?" Huang Jiahui asked in surprise.

This place is wilderness. Along the way, there is no sign of a person except themselves. If I hadn't known that there was a reconstruction area, I would have thought that humans had become extinct.

Luo Yuan pointed at the direction, and the group hurriedly looked at it. In the jungle in the distance, a group of people were half squatting on the ground and looking at it with a vigilant look on their faces.

There were six people in this group, with disheveled hair and ragged clothes, but they did not look embarrassed. They looked rebellious and did not look like ordinary refugees. However, when they looked at Luo Yuan and his group, especially the two huge mutant beasts, they were obviously a little alert.

"It's some wanderers!" Company Commander Xia suddenly said.

"Roam?" Luo Yuan asked in confusion.

"This is a group of deserters, criminals and some unruly evolvers!" Captain Xia's story was filled with a hint of contempt and disdain: "Most of them are deserters. The battlefield pressure is too great, and people die every day. Many people are not used to it, so they become deserters. They can no longer go to the reconstruction area and have to wander around."

"Let them do this, will the reconstruction area not be encircled and suppressed?" As a former policeman, Huang Jiahui looked at them with some disgust after hearing this and asked.

"There are too many wanderers, probably at least tens of thousands, and they are very scattered. Ironically, the wicked boys on the battlefield who are afraid of death have become wanderers, but after they become wanderers, they become extremely vicious, especially some powerful evolvers, which are very difficult. We have encircled and suppressed them on a large scale several times, but the results are not great, and they are finally left alone.

Moreover, their existence has reduced the pressure on the defense line to a certain extent, so as long as there is no dangerous group or vicious incidents, they can only be allowed to exist."

Luo Yuan nodded in his heart. The biggest enemy of mankind is still a mutant beast, and there is really not much power to consume intrafighting.

"You stay here, I'll go over and ask about some information." Luo Yuan thought for a while and said.

"Be careful, they may have guns." Huang Jiahui said.

The guns are not very threatening to him now. Unless they encounter dense bullets, they will never hit him with his agility. However, Luo Yuan nodded, and then he jumped off the giant lizard and crossed seven or eight meters in one step. Although he walked step by step, his speed was amazing.

Seeing this scene, the group of people changed their faces drastically and subconsciously took a few steps back. Two of them took out a rifle, as if they were about to shoot, but were hurriedly stopped by the leading middle-aged man: "Don't move, put away the gun, see what he is going to do?"

After a few breaths, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them. When everyone breathed quickly, a depressed aura suddenly spread out, and even the air seemed to begin to tremble.

Everyone's faces turned a little pale, and they only felt a little difficult to breathe. The leading middle-aged man insisted on calming himself: "This friend, what's wrong with us brothers?"

Luo Yuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that these people were pretty good at will. Even Huo Dong and others would not be better than theirs when facing their three-point momentum. This is a relatively familiar reason.

Seeing that he had already established his authority, Luo Yuan did not want to be arrogant, so he restrained his breath and said, "There is nothing else. I want to know how far the reconstruction area is here. It would be better if there is a map."

The leading middle-aged man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the strong man he met this time seemed to be a good person to talk to, but when he reacted, he was a little surprised: "You are going to the reconstruction area? Did you come from outside?"

"Why, have no survivors come here recently?" Luo Yuan was very enthusiastic and quickly understood the information from his expression.

"I don't know about other places, but there have been no survivors in this area for three months, and maybe there are no other places either." The leading middle-aged man said quickly.

"Is there no one?" Luo Yuan sighed in his heart and didn't say anything for a long time.

The leading middle-aged man observed his expression and said carefully: "Are you planning to smuggle, or go directly to the garrison?"

"Smuggling?" Luo Yuan reacted: "Apart from smuggling, can't you directly enter the reconstruction area?"

"No, there is no place to build a huge defense area, and soldiers are everywhere. If you want to enter the reconstruction area, you must go through the defense line unless you smuggle, and I just know the location of a hole!" said the leading middle-aged man: "Maybe you may not know that the harsh rules of the reconstruction area include the forced military service that is almost sent to death. Smuggle can perfectly avoid this because it does not enter the system."

Luo Yuan glanced at him and understood his plan in his heart. He was preparing to use his group's strength to attempt to smuggle back to the reconstruction area. Moreover, the smuggled hole may not be so easy to pass through, but this is destined to disappoint him.

"Just go directly to the garrison. Is there a map?" Luo Yuan said.

The middle-aged man, who was leading, was stunned, and a hint of disappointment and admiration flashed in his heart, but he did not dare to neglect. He quickly said, "There is no map now. Follow this road and walk for two or three hours, you will be able to defend the line area soon."

Luo Yuan left soon.

Seeing the group riding on a giant and quickly moving away, the leading middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, and there was also a hint of regret and envy. His face changed and his heart was mixed.

Maybe it would be better if I didn't become this deserter at the beginning.
