Chapter 40 040. Not suitable for travel
The basic silence points of 4,500, if the degree of completion is slightly higher, it is normal to go up to 5,000, and then count the rewards for the follow-up career development tasks,Then Lu Jian's savings will soon exceed 10,000, and he can give his [last words] the essence.
As for why I chose the essence [Last Word] instead of buying more crowbars to protect myself, it is of course because [Last Word] is a [Inherent] level item.
Another [Inherent] level is the [Desperate] dice, which can produce effects even when Lu Jian is facing a great existence, and it is a wonderful prop that keeps him alive.
Although [Last Words] is just a repeater now, Lu Jian believes that it can be refined and has a promising future.
Besides, young people nowadays always think about consumption, but they don't understand the value of saving money at all. They have lost the spirit of tradition. Lu Jian is very sad and decides to set an example.
In fact, the main reason is that Lu Jian can't afford those useful things.
After he chose the [Erosion] difficulty, the small hole expanded and became like a cat's eye doorway.
Lu Jian glanced inside, it was pitch black.
Suddenly, in the darkness, an eye suddenly opened.
Those are not human eyes, but the vertical pupils of some kind of animal, dark yellow in color, covered with dirt, cloudy and dim.
Around the eyes, a circle of words emerged.
[Are you entering a place of silence? ]
[Yes/No ]
Lu Jian chose no.
He saw that the countdown outside was still going on.
"It turns out that these two days are two days of choice and preparation."
Lu Jian understand.
But he has nothing to prepare.
The law and order in the country is so good, it's too late to go abroad now, Lu Jian can't get any guns and ammunition, he can't use these hot weapons, and they can't compare to [Silent Department Store] for replacement.
As for those knives, spear, axes, swords, halberds, hooks, forks, fried dough sticks and twists, Lu Jian is not easy to use.
He went downstairs and went to the supermarket to buy some ribs, a portable pan, a portable camping lamp that can be used as a fire source, and corresponding tools, side dishes, water, etc, put them in the bag.
He also took a flashlight, power bank, compressed dry food, etc.
After tidying up, it was already evening.
Lu Jian sent a WeChat message to Qin Tiantian, saying that he was going to go out to collect materials for a few days, after thinking about it, he sent another message to the old class monitor Feng Yu.
In this world, Lu Jian really doesn't have anyone close to him.
He put on his coat, put on his backpack, and held a crowbar in his hand. Words appeared in his vision.
[Are you entering a place of silence? ]
[Yes/No]
Lu Jian chose [Yes].
There was a burst of colorfulness around him, colors that did not belong to this world surrounded him.
Lu Jian felt that the weight of his body had reached his head, and then quickly shifted to his stomach.
He saw that those unnamed colors formed several paragraphs of text.
[The time flow rate of the silent place is inconsistent with the outside world]
[The time ratio of this journey is: 3:1]
[Going to the abandoned capital]
At the moment when Lu Jian was a little dizzy by these words, he felt something hard.
The first thing you feel is a certain dry and throaty air.
Immediately afterwards, there was a giant iron and steel body bumping under him.
Lu Jian found that he was sitting in the last row of a bus.
This bus is not too big, with less than twenty seats, and he is the only person in the last row.
The lights in the car were dimly lit, as if they would go out at any moment.
Seats are solid, aged wood.
Guardrails are rusted steel.
Windows are cracked glass.
Outside the window, there are endless ruins under the night sky.
Lu Jian saw that the broken walls and ruins of the ruins of unknown age were intertwined to form a paragraph of text.
[Abandoned Capital]
[New calendar 20 years, not suitable for travel]
[Prohibition did not completely eradicate crime, but it made mafias stronger. In the abandoned capital, mafias are the masters of the underground world. Killing, blood, and death have turned the former city of hope into a city of sin]
[But there are still people who yearn for the abandoned capital, and come here from all over the world, praying to discover their own wealth]
[Everybody wants to be the one in the story, doesn't they? ]
[Task Requirements: Complete the trip to the abandoned capital]
[Difficulty: Erosion]
"prohibition"
Lu Jian's historical knowledge is not rich. He only knows that in the original world, around the 1920s and 1930s, some countries had promulgated alcohol prohibition on the grounds that alcohol would cause crimes against women.
But after the actual promulgation, many people will still make wine in the name of medicine, and all these wines flow into the underground market and are controlled by mafias, which indirectly contributes to the strength of mafias.
Now it seems that the chaos in the abandoned capital, the prevalence of mafias, and the prohibition of alcohol are also closely related.
Turning his gaze away from the window, Lu Jian looked inside the car.
The driver is a middle-aged bald man in his forties with a big belly.
In addition to Lu Jian, there were three other passengers in the car.
In the front left, in the penultimate row is a thin young man curled up on the seat and shivering, wearing a beret.
Front right, in the third-to-last row, is a middle-aged woman. She keeps glancing at other people, with both hands in her pockets, appearing extremely cautious.
Behind the driver's side is a 1.9-meter-tall man, wearing a short jacket, with a scar on his head, which spreads from the cap to the shoulder blade, which is shocking.
It seems that this is the companion this time?
Seeing that the others were silent, Lu Jian could only move his position and got behind the shivering young man.
"Hello."
He spoke.
"Whoah!"
The young man screamed and almost jumped out of the window.
His reaction got the attention of others, but only attention.
"Do, what to do?"
The language used by the young man is the same as that of Lu Jian, but the accent is a bit of a local accent, which is not very standard.
"Do you know how long it will last?"
Lu Jian saw that there was no problem with the communication, so he asked directly.
"Tomorrow, at least until dawn, can you see the houses in the abandoned capital"
He is submissive, not very smart.
"At least eight hours."
The tough man sitting next to the driver answered.
"oh."
Lu Jian nodded.
According to the time flow rate of 3:1, he stayed here for eight hours, but in reality it only took more than two hours. If he is lucky, he can go back for a midnight snack.
He didn't continue talking, but observed the environment carefully.
The ruins outside seem to have been abandoned for many years, and have long been occupied by rainwater and vegetation, and the original architectural form cannot be distinguished.
Even this road, looking back, seemed to be forcibly carved out of broken bricks and rubble.
There is no starlight, no moonlight, the whole world is dark, only the front and rear lights of the bus illuminate the road a little bit.
Lu Jian was about to look back, when suddenly, he saw something passing behind the bus, sinking into the darkness of the ruins.
Just a glance, Lu Jian didn't see its specific appearance clearly, but he could vaguely tell that it had limbs, a body, a head, and the body was white.
Look like a person?
