Chapter 157 - 157 Ironback Pig, Charge!
157 Ironback Pig, Charge!
“Is… is this the previous world?”
“The buildings are so tall?”
“If that building didn’t collapse from the middle, it has to be more than a hundred meters long, right?”
In the car, while the driver was looking at the map, Bei Yun looked at the tallest building not far in front of him and exclaimed.
Hong Zhijun nodded and sighed.
“This is the world before pollution ~”
“Actually, this is not considered high. In Zhongzhou City, there are higher ones. Moreover, they’re the kind that can be used.”
“Central Province? Is that the largest city of our human race?”
Bei Yun looked at Hong Zhijun with shining eyes and asked curiously.
“That’s right. Unfortunately, we don’t have a spatial portal to Zhongzhou City. Or rather, many cities don’t have one.”
“If you want to go there, you have to transit several times.”
Hearing Hong Zhijun say this, Bei Yun could not help but lean forward a little towards the front passenger seat. After getting closer, he looked at Hong Zhijun’s side profile hopefully.
“Have you been there?”
Hong Zhijun turned to look at Bei Yun.
“Of course not.”
“Huh?”
Seeing Hong Zhijun speak so confidently, Bei Yun thought that he had been there ~
Seeing the disappointment on this little brother who had just come out of the academy, Hong Zhijun could not help but explain a few more words.
“Huh what?”
“Do you think it’s so easy to go to Zhongzhou City?”
“The cost of those few transits will require a few level 5 crystal cores. One round trip will cost ten or more.”
“Moreover, if you want to go through the spatial door, you have to apply in advance and explain the situation. You can only enter after the other party’s approval.”
Hearing Hong Zhijun explain in detail, Bei Yun nodded in understanding.
“Then why don’t we directly go to Qingquan City from the spatial door?”
Hearing this question, Hong Zhijun looked at Bei Yun in surprise and blurted out,
“What did you learn in the academy?”
“There’s no spatial door between us and Qingquan City.”
“The only level five spatial mutant they have who can open a spatial door of more than a hundred kilometers died in the beast tide many years ago.”
“The conditions for opening the spatial door given to others are very harsh. Moreover, it consumes a lot.
“Otherwise, why would those spatial mutants be more willing to deliver items to the delivery company?”
“Not only is it profitable, but it’s also convenient.”
Bei Yun was slightly embarrassed by Hong Zhijun’s words.
“Uh… Ahem, I forgot, I forgot.”
Just as the two of them were bragging, the driver in the driver’s seat looked at the map for a while and turned to Hong Zhijun in the front passenger seat.
“Vice Commander, from the markings on the map, there might be danger ahead.”
When Hong Zhijun heard this, he looked at the map.
He discovered that there were a few symbols drawn there.
Some looked like birds, some looked like spiders, and some… looked like humans?!
“Damn!”
“Didn’t we already have a communicator back then? Why can’t we have an electronic file?!”
Looking at these rather abstract patterns on the map, Hong Zhijun could not help but complain.
Then, he held the walkie-talkie in the car and said,
“Class One, Class Two, and Communications Class, go ahead and investigate.”
“Communicator, remember to maintain communication distance.”
“Class One, received!”
“Class Two, roger that!”
“Communication Class, roger!”
After Hong Zhijun’s order was issued, 30 people alighted from the three trucks behind.
Among them, ten of them were carrying a square device with an antenna.
The leader was Chen Fei, who had a Type I combat bear.
This communication soldier, who had been trained by the combat bear for nearly a month, seemed to have changed slightly from before.
Not to mention anything else, the muscles on his body looked even tighter, and his gaze was much sharper.
Hong Zhijun opened the car door and looked at the 30 people in front of him. He instructed seriously,
“Class One and Chen Fei, you guys take the lead. Our target is the tallest building.”
“The remaining people from Class Two and Communications Class form teams in pairs. We must ensure smooth communication.”
“Be careful. Don’t fight. Leave immediately if there’s danger.”
“I understand!”
The signal transmitter on the communication soldier could only ensure communication within 500 meters. Moreover, it would also be affected by the surrounding terrain.
Therefore, even though the tallest building was only two kilometers away from where Hong Zhijun and the others had parked, he still sent out a ten-person communication class that could cover up to five kilometers just to be safe.
Seeing the group begin to advance, Hong Zhijun returned to the car.
“Everyone, be on guard and be prepared to support at any time!”
“Carry out communication test after the communication group is in place.”
Looking at the communication soldier in position in the distance, Hong Zhijun was also vaguely worried.
Especially Chen Fei and the members of Class One.
However, he had no choice.
If he did not investigate and directly rushed in with the convoy, if these two hundred people were all surrounded there, Hong Zhijun would become a sinner.
After all, Hong Zhijun would still calculate such a simple multiple-choice question.
Of course, he hoped that he would not need to use such arithmetic questions along the way.
As soon as Hong Zhijun finished speaking, a rather soft voice suddenly sounded from the walkie-talkie.
“Vice Commander Hong, do you need help? The two people beside me are speed-type mutants.”
Hearing Wu Yan’s words, Hong Zhijun said expressionlessly,
“There’s no need.”
“Also, Officer Wu, if there’s no need, don’t occupy the communication channel, lest I miss important information.”
