Chapter 48: Chapter 48: What It’s Like to Fight Side by Side with Miss Qiu
In the semi-underground cave formed due to changes in the terrain, the team of five wasteland explorers just completed their self-introduction and embarked on an adventure inside.
Didn’t find anything useful at all.
Lu Wenwu felt that his treatment was not typical of a transmigrator.
Other transmigrators may not have system hacks, but when they explore thousand-year-old ruins or ancient tombs, the layout and treasures inside are all as good as new!
Why is it that his experience not only stinks and chokes, but a lot of places are also caved in?
In this weird climate, filled with pollution and radiation, nothing good lasts long.
The interior of the cave was filled with rust and debris, it’s impossible to distinguish what things used to be.
These debris mixed with what looked like human bones, piled up on the ground.
Master Ruhuo kept chanting “Amitabha Buddha” and reciting the “Rebirth Scripture” along the way, never stopping.
The few gains they had included a sealed map book wrapped in layers.
The writing on it was mostly blurred, but the geographical positions could barely be discerned through color blocks and lines.
At least there’s a trace of psychological consolation.
“Let’s go, let’s head to the nearest point and see if the shelter is still there after all these years.”
Lu Wenwu said as he exerted force in his legs, kicking the heavy alloy door along with a lot of gravel far away, opening a path leading outside.
He was the first to step out, the first to feel the breath of the wasteland.
The temperature wasn’t very warm, and the air smelled awful.
It was accompanied by slight dizziness, nausea, and skin prickling.
His blood volume steadily showed a small drop but was instantly restored by Lu Wenwu’s [Blood and Flesh Regeneration] talent.
It just looked like it had signs similar to blood seeping.
With a quick activation of Qi Blood for isolation, all the discomfort vanished instantly.
“Activate body protection, there’s a lot of radiation outside.” Lu Wenwu reminded.
Old Monk Ruhuo thought for a moment, uttered a Buddhist chant, took out a radiation meter from his backpack, and held it up while walking out.
“Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep…”
The harsh alarm sound never stopped.
Anthony, who followed, showed a surprised expression: “My god! 9999 Roentgen? How many nukes have hit this place?”
“9999 might not cover it.” The Northeast Fox Lady, with an illusion technique to hide her appearance, showed a serious expression, “That’s the limit of the radiation meter, but clearly not the limit of nuclear radiation here.”
“Over a hundred years ago, when the little island country next door came to harass the coast and plunder, didn’t they get a harsh lesson from us, almost wiping them out?”
“Our Four Great Fox Races also sent elite members over to have a friendly exchange with the shrine foxes there, capturing some slaves.”
“After Miss Qiu sent them a hot kiss, when I went with the elders to probe the radiation area to finish them off, the expenditure was only a fraction of what it is now.”
“I was only recently selected to become a player; when I went there back then, my cultivation was only at the C Tier.”
Anthony pondered for a moment and cautiously said: “This calculation suggests that the radiation here should be at least two to three thousand Roentgen? This has reached the environmental radiation level after the Northern Giant Bear incident.”
“If the creatures in this dungeon can withstand this level of radiation for decades…no, even if only for a dozen years without dying, we must act cautiously; they’ve surely undergone massive mutations in their physique.”
This statement was agreed upon by everyone.
Except for Lu Wenwu.
He was quite excited and somewhat expectant.
If the average strength of the creatures in this dungeon were high, wouldn’t it be a great chance to farm attribute points!
“But in this situation…it seems somewhat abnormal. Maybe there are large radioactive substances still here, otherwise, it’s been decades since the nuclear war, any large radiation should have dissipated.” Anthony muttered.
“Amitabha Buddha.” Master Ruhuo shook his head with a compassionate expression, “In this land, all beings suffer.”
As the few of them chatted intermittently, they continued forward according to the map.
After walking for about half an hour, the Big Fox Lady’s furry ears on top of her head twitched and she looked toward a direction in the distance.
“Hey, Kashan sister, do you know the Eagle Eye Skill? Cast one and take a look over there.”
Kashan, resembling a bullied wife, obediently released an Eagle Eye Skill, high above the sky, reflecting in the direction Su Qinghong pointed.
The light blue magic glow was extremely noticeable in this wasteland.
“I…I see it.” Kashan nervously whispered, “A seven-member squad, right behind the small hill, one of them looks strange. Humanoid appearance, but has a hard shell, and one hand is a pincer.”
Lu Wenwu was slightly stunned.
Could it be such a coincidence?
The scavengers in the wasteland moved quickly.
Just a few seconds after Kashan revealed the information, they appeared on top of the small hill.
Lu Wenwu glanced over, and burst out laughing.
They really looked familiar.
Same as the survivors who lay flat in the previous dungeon!
Anthony quickly scanned the scavenger squad and said quietly: “One at C-level, the rest are all D+, their body structures are odd, it seems they’ve evolved some radiation resistance, but there’s no threat. Should we…”
“No time to explain!”
Before Anthony could finish speaking, Lu Wenwu already reached the opposite side.
The scavenger squad didn’t even have time to react, and the only evolver among them was kicked to the ground.
A wisp of flame hadn’t even had the chance to exert itself before being forcibly dissipated.
The remaining six were immediately scared stiff.
Lu Wenwu stepped on the evolver, asking with interest, “I ask, you answer, play dumb and you die, understand?”
The evolver nodded quickly, “Understand! Will speak honestly!”
“What’s your identity, what’s your group’s identity, what are you doing here?” Lu Wenwu asked.
The evolver hurriedly replied, “We are all followers of the Great Evolution God, also scavengers from the Giant Bone Gathering Place.”
“Apart from that, I am an evolver, and also a glorious priest granted divine power by the Great Evolution God.”
“We came here because Old John found a map from the old era that shows there might be a temporary military facility from the end of the old era here, we wanted to try our luck.”
As he spoke, the self-identified priest pointed at the weathered man, indicating him as Old John.
“Sir, are there priests of the Great Evolution God among your group too? Just now I felt a kind of mystical guidance from afar, which led me here.”
Great Evolution God…priest…divine power?
Is there really a deity in this apocalypse wasteland?
B-level dungeons, wouldn’t that be over the top?
Lu Wenwu said nonchalantly, “Great Evolution God? Never heard of it, we came from the east, there’s no such deity over there.”
The priest was puzzled: “But…but sir…east…is the activity range of the mutants! Further east is the gathering place of the God of Eternal Glory’s followers, how could you not have heard…uh…”
Seeing Lu Wenwu’s fist as large as a sandbag, the priest swallowed his unsaid question.
“I’m too lazy to make up a second excuse to fool you, so you’d better take my words seriously.” Lu Wenwu retracted his fist, “Now, tell me everything about this wasteland, and these two gods you mentioned.”
“Uh, okay.” The priest instantly read the situation, “Where would you like me to start?”
Lu Wenwu turned back to exchange a glance with his teammates, gestured with his chin: “Start with this, the power system or cultivation system of this land, you may begin.”
