Chapter 53: The shock after the hunt
This time, Shen Bei did not go directly to the ruined city where the cluster fire disc was hidden.
Instead, he deviated in a certain direction.
One hour later.
[After writing this, I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network βπ½ππ΄πͺπ·.π¬πΈπΆ]
It was a cloudy day with thick clouds, and the light was even dimmer than usual.
Shen Bei slowed down his pace and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
This is a desolate, barren, and dilapidated town.
Half-collapsed abandoned houses are scattered on the horizon, and several high-voltage iron towers stand alone in the wind. The twisted steel bars clearly outline the huge power of the nuclear explosion.
At the end of the sight, you can still see a huge round shallow pit, which is the explosion center of the nuclear explosion that day.
Yes.
A nuclear explosion pit.
This is a masterpiece left by humans when they tried to kill alien species.
It turns out that the alien species seem to be creatures of higher dimensions and cannot be destroyed or eliminated.
And no one survived the nuclear explosion in this town.
Even if it was not a nuclear explosion, the town would have been slaughtered by the evil species.
But Shen Bei heard a saying that the nuclear explosion was not aimed at the evil species, but at something else, which could also be a rumor.
Shen Bei didn't know what the town was called.
In this era, all place names have lost their meaning.
They are collectively called ruins.
After all, humans can no longer survive in cities, and the only name worth remembering is Titan.
Shen Bei rested in an abandoned house selected on the edge of the town.
He turned and stuck his head out.
Looking at the sky of the town.
Above the town, there was a natural phenomenon, and the thick radiation cloud was spinning slowly and strangely, with the center of the vortex hanging low, almost touching the iron tower of the town.
It seemed that the entire sky was crumbling and could collapse at any time, crushing the town full of traces of years and frost.
"Wait for the night."
Shen Bei sat down at ease.
Ever since he and Zhuima Ganmo chased and killed each other in the wilderness.
Shen Bei passed by this town accidentally one night.
He found several glowing creatures.
The flesh and blood of this creature is completely different from other wilderness beasts, but is similar to evil spirits.
They are all strange creatures of the spirit body that are naturally born from special magnetic fields and places where negative energy gathers, such as tombs and cemeteries.
They are almost invisible during the day, almost invisible, and ordinary humans cannot observe them with the naked eye.
Only at night, they emit faint light like glowing fireflies.
After seeing this strange creature, Shen Bei immediately thought that this thing should explode the "true spirit element" required in the crystal source crushing and reorganization equipment.
But because Zhuima and Ganmo were chasing him that day, Shen Bei did not try to kill it.
Moreover, Shen Bei felt that it might not be possible to kill this thing with gun bullets. He was afraid that a bullet would penetrate it without any harm, but instead alarmed this kind of spirit creature.
Now get rid of the tail.
Shen Bei plans to collect some true spirit elements.
The most reliable way is to use the spirit-eliminating potion on Zhuima.
Shen Bei frowned after taking out the spirit-eliminating potion. How should this thing be used?
Apply it on the fist and fight at close range?
"Although I can fight, is it really reliable?"
The word reliable does not mean Shen Bei's doubt about the spirit-eliminating potion.
It means his doubt about spirit creatures.
Who knows what they can do? It is very likely that they will be discovered before they get close.
Such a battle will be beyond his control.
After thinking deeply for a while.
Shen Bei got up and left the ruined hut.
He had an intuition.
When he passed by this town, he ran along the edge of the town, and Zhuima and Gan Mo would definitely not go around in circles, but go straight through the town.
They would definitely run into spirit creatures in the town.
There would definitely be a fight.
As long as we find the place where they fight, we will know how to solve it at a glance.
This is called learning from experience and using what is ready.
The road into the town has long been destroyed, and we can only barely recognize that there was a section of road here.
There was a signpost on the roadside, with five or six signposts pointing to different places nailed on it, and most of the place names on them were mottled and incomplete.
Shen Bei looked around the town.
Because it was daytime, there was no need to worry about attacks from spiritual creatures.
He could walk through the streets without restraint.
He came to the central area.
Because no one had visited here for many years, the ground was full of dust.
Shen Bei indeed found two rows of footprints crossing the town.
No need to think too much, it must be the footprints of Zhuima and Gan Mo.
Look along the route of the footprints.
Not far away, there was a new crack on the wall of a dilapidated house.
Shen Bei trotted over.
The crack on the wall was caused by a steel coin from the old era.
The steel coin had been completely twisted and embedded in the wall.
And below the wall.
In the gap between the rocks, there was a strange light blue crystal.
"True spirit element?"
Shen Bei picked it up with one hand.
It was cold to the touch, like a piece of ice that could not be melted.
Shen Bei stared at it.
A hint popped up in the corner of his eye:
[True Spirit Element: Max Level]
[A material with few uses. ]
Shen Bei was delighted.
It was indeed this thing!
This proves that my guess is correct. The ghost-like spirit creatures in this town can really explode the items I need!
As for the fact that the hint is of little use, that is for others, but for me, it is of great use.
I can use the equipment to produce shells myself!
Shen Bei can be sure now.
At the beginning, Zhuima and Gan Mo used the flying of steel coins to kill the spirit creatures.
The most intuitive evidence is that there are no footprints in the corner of the wall, and the steel coins were fired from five meters away.
Shen Bei reached out and pulled the coins embedded in the wall, but couldn't pull them away.
"It seems that the power is not small."
Shen Bei touched his chin: "It's not a simple throw, it also requires a certain impact force, so... I can only use firearms."
Shen Bei's shooting is very accurate, but throwing is another matter.
Although the armor can also provide similar power.
But the accuracy is not good, it is a pure waste of spirit removal potion.
Thinking of this.
Shen Bei returned to the previous abandoned hut.
Take out the magazine of the sniper rifle and empty the bullets.
Apply the spirit-removing agent on the bullet.
There are slight lines on the bullet that allow the agent to be adsorbed on it.
As for whether the gun barrel will get stuck...
What a joke.
After the sniper rifle has been upgraded, it can be fired normally even if there is mud and sand in the barrel.
About twenty special bullets were made.
After Shen Bei made all these preparations, he put the remaining things into his backpack and began to rest with his eyes closed.
...
Night fell.
Shen Bei woke up on time. He sucked up a tube of high-energy nutrient that had no taste at all, drank the clean water he brought with him, and got up and left the house.
Taking advantage of the night, climbed up the tallest building in the town, a three-story building.
There should be taller buildings, but they collapsed.
The only strong one is this building.
Lying on the roof.
Shen Bei poked the rough but extremely simple sniper rifle out of the parapet.
The infrared vision in the armor was directly turned off and could not be used.
The glowing spirit creatures were the best targets.
After waiting for more than ten minutes.
The sky was completely dark, with no moon and no wind.
It was pitch dark.
Gradually.
Some lights suddenly flickered in the town.
It seemed that the town was alive at this moment.
These lights kept moving.
They were similar in size to humans.
But if you look closely, you will find that the eye sockets of these spirit creatures are dark, and their lower bodies have no legs, which are like ribbons.
These spirit creatures go in and out of various buildings, seemingly very busy.
This gave Shen Bei an illusion that the peaceful scene a hundred years ago was reappearing.
They were at work...working.
"Hunting!"
Shen Bei aimed at a spirit creature.
Pull the trigger!
Bang~~
Sharp and swift sounds of breaking through the air broke the quiet air.
The high-speed flying bullet drew a beautiful arc in the air.
The speed was so fast that the surrounding air was stirred up by it, forming a series of vortexes of airflow.
Snap~~
Swish~~
In Shen Bei's field of vision, the target he shot at was like glass, shattered directly, and after dropping a true spirit element, it turned into a light spot and floated into the night sky, as if it became a star under the night sky and disappeared.
"Too easy! The exorcist potion is really useful!"
Shen Bei grinned, it was completely a target shooting.
However.
Just when Shen Bei was about to shoot at the second target.
Shen Bei suddenly found that all the spirit-like creatures in the town were collectively looking at him!
Shen Bei's face suddenly paused, and his heart skipped a beat.
Without saying a word, he grabbed the sniper rifle, jumped directly from the third floor, and ran away!
