Chapter 278 Central District and Residential District

Luo Xiuwen led everyone through several blocks. The surrounding scenes kept changing, and the tops of the tall buildings behind him gradually disappeared into the clouds. M.

Observing that the number of patrol robots around them gradually decreased, everyone once again opened the box containing the floating locomotive.

In an instant, several locomotives were spraying tail flames through the air, speeding in one direction.

Everyone was driving their motorcycles in the air, already some distance away from the ground, but several cars that were also floating in the air passed by them from time to time.

The principles of these cars are similar to those of levitating motorcycles, with the wheels underneath turning into jet power devices.

The wind roared in my ears, and as the tall buildings in the city next to me gradually became lower and lower——

The figures of orcs and awakened ones became increasingly rare on the streets below.

The number of patrol robots and mechanized equipment that can be seen everywhere on the road is not as sophisticated as in the central area.

After a while, Luo Xiuwen led everyone to the junction of the central area and the civilian area.

The most intuitive manifestation is that the tall modern urban buildings have disappeared.

What appeared in front of everyone was a low bungalow common in human bases.

Luo Xiuwen drove the suspended motorcycle to a sudden stop, turned to Mu Qiu and said:

"I will now return to the headquarters to report the results of the mission. You two will rest here for a while. I will ask the headquarters for your instructions."

Mu Qiu smiled and nodded:

"Please..."

If Luo Xiuwen really brought a "friend" he had met outside for a few days back to the headquarters so easily——

Then there is no need for this resistance organization to exist.

"Yu Ming, please find a place for Brother Qiu and Miss Lu to live first!"

Luo Xiuwen turned around and ordered Mao Yuming beside him.

"Okay, uncle!"

Although Mao Yuming is only a half-year-old boy, he can do things happily.

Mao Yuming smiled, ran to Mu Qiu and said:

"Brother Qiu and sister Lu, come with me. I'm very familiar with the slums!"

Mao Yuming raised his fist and hammered his chest, looking very confident and reliable.

Before Luo Xiuwen left, he gave Mu Qiu a bracelet-like device and told them that if anything happened, he could contact them at any time through the bracelet.

Mu Qiu noticed that this bracelet was exactly the same as the one taken out by the man who was shot by the robot just now.

The screen above boasted a series of four-digit numbers.

From what the man said before, this string of fictitious numbers seems to be the base’s universal currency...

It seems to be called - Jingyuan?

After explaining, Luo Xiuwen took the remaining rebel companions to drive a motorcycle and speed away in the other direction.

Mu Qiu and Lu Qianqian, under the leadership of Mao Yuming, walked towards the civilian area.

Along the way, Mu Qiu noticed that the houses here still looked like pre-apocalyptic scenes.

Even some high-rise buildings have collapsed and been converted into low-rise tiled houses.

The crowd of people moving around them no longer looked like orcs, but instead there were scattered human figures.

The clothes of these people looked quite old. What was strange was that their faces were full of malaise. They were all walking in a hurry and looked tired.

Mu Qiu could sense that these people were ordinary survivors who had no special powers and had not undergone transformation experiments.

"Is this what you call a slum?"

Mu Qiu looked at the surrounding environment, although it was far less developed and prosperous than the central area.

But as a human base alone, it was quite comfortable. In his opinion, this place could not be called a slum.

Mao Yuming shook his head slightly and said:

“A lot of the people who live here have been evicted from the central area!”

"Since the transformation of the central area has been completed, only awakened people and mutant orcs with high racial marks are allowed to live."

"The original humans living inside were all abandoned to the edge of the base."

"This place has not experienced technological transformation, everything is still the same as it was before the end of the world."

"Although there are still patrol robots monitoring here, the role of these robots is to prevent human riots."

Mao Yuming looked around the ground. Some street corners were already filled with rancid garbage, exuding a stench.

The human beings walking on both sides of the street had dull eyes, like zombies.

But the pace of these people is extremely fast, as if they are in a hurry to do some activity...

Mao Yuming's tone was low and he said:

"This is a civilian area abandoned by Xilan Base, but it is also a slum that many humans have spoken of!"

Mu Qiu asked the question he had been confused about for a long time: "Why are there so few humans in civilian areas?"

This was a problem he discovered as soon as he entered Xilan Base, except for the mutant orcs and a small number of awakened ones in the central area.

Even in civilian areas where humans gather, only scattered human survivors can be seen.

There are surprisingly few humans in this city.

As a powerful presence in the human base, the number of humans in Xilan Base is indeed too small.

When Mu Qiu raised this question, Mao Yuming's expression became obviously unnatural.

His tone was solemn, his expression became increasingly mature, and he said seriously and thoughtfully:

"Where are the survivors in this city, in a sense..."

"They're in another world!"

"oh?"

Mu Qiu narrowed her eyes and became interested:

"What do you mean?"

Mao Yuming turned around and looked at the high-tech city behind them:

"Brother Qiu, have you ever heard of virtual reality technology?"
