Running Dead Horses in the Mountains

"Do you have it? Do you have it?"

"I didn't notice it. Is it in that room over there?"

"Looking carefully again, Chief of Staff Liu Lian said that it should be right around here. Male Ant 4, please lower your armor. There must be gaps in this large cement block, and I can feel the cool breeze pouring in. Male ants can't penetrate."

"Okay!" Pan Ruyi sighed and withdrew her hand from her arm tube. She turned off the switch on the back of her body, opened the hatch on the back of the male ant, and then crawled out.

His partner Pan Xun crawled out from the back of the male ant, both sweating profusely, as if they had been pulled out of the water.

"It's too hot, if you want me to say what the Chief of Staff said, he's right. He runs dead horses when he sees the mountains..." Pan Xun's spirit has returned to normal, and his strange habit of talking is constantly brushing his presence. "When he sees a sign, he runs to waste. The big stainless steel and aluminum sign can be seen from afar, but we've all turned three circles and walked three miles now. The sign in the sky used to be so big, but it's still so big now. Unfortunately, these wealthy second-generation people who kill thousands of dollars love to race cars, fell asleep during a minor disaster and got into a series of car accidents. Now it's okay, this house is all part of the Himalayas..."

"Enough, stop talking. Xia Yousheng and the others have found the entrance. Hurry up and hide your armor, and we'll go over." Pan Ruyi really wants to apply for a new partner, but the number of people who can proficiently pilot the ants is still limited, and their tacit understanding is so high that they are both approaching the combination of Captain Tom and Chief Pilot of the Ark, Ouyang Haotian.

Although the oil in the ark does not cost money, there is no need to travel around the world. Tom and his team have strong strength and can handle some threats encountered on the way, but they still need to have a sense of safety and security. So they have been developing new technologies and upgrading armor and weapons. In addition to living resources, various materials such as clothing, steel, medicine, etc. still need to be searched, after all, they all have expenses for thousands of people.

This time, the ark docked in front of a restaurant on a building materials street, quickly established a temporary camp, and dispatched exploration teams to explore the surrounding area.

The 18 person team led by Pan Ruyi is led by Xia Yousheng, equipped with two worker ant type III individual armor, one male ant armor, six armed pickup trucks, and a hardworking longhorn wood.

Their task was to search for nearby survivors, as Tom had previously circled in the air on a flying dragon biscuit and found smoke rising from a house that had been hit by a car. Therefore, they dispatched their team to advance cautiously in search of possible survivors.

Not every exploration is led by Tom or Wang Zixiong. If it is not an area with dangerous biological traces, they will also send other teams to explore. The purpose is naturally to exercise the combat and survival exploration abilities of others. Only when every fighter in the ark can grow, can the overall combat effectiveness be improved.

Lin Meiqi, who loves mobile games and has been crowned as the Queen of Krypton by Prince Xiong, records and categorizes everyone's attribute data based on her research, and divides her personal rarity according to the R-SR SSR SSSR of mobile games.

Of course, this was just a joke she made up, but everyone unconsciously fell in love with this set. So Lin Meiqi asked Tom to use metal shaping to create small metal cards, and gave each evaluator a character card with its own basic attribute values and rarity markers, just like character cards in mobile games.

Pan Ruyi has a strength of 15, a speed of only 11, a defense of 10, and a mind control of 9. She is a Level 2 armored driver and was rated as rare by Lin Meiqi as SR.

By the standards of mobile games, R belongs to the level of miscellaneous soldiers, with more combat experience. Those who have good driving, shooting, or hand to hand combat skills can obtain SR. It is obvious that Pan Ruyi is proficient in driving male ant armor, so she can estimate SSR. However, due to some personal shortcomings, Lin Meiqi does not give him an SSR rating.

Together with Pan Xun, they covered the male ants with a camouflage net. Pan Ruyi thought that if he rescued a few people this time, perhaps Lin Meiqi would give him extra points and promote him to SSR.

Three sports cars crashed due to the driver falling asleep at the same time, involving a large truck and causing the three houses here to be smashed to the ground. More than a year after the Miniature Cataclysm, the bodies of the deceased in the car and house have long decayed or been eaten by other creatures, leaving only the forest skeleton. At this time, SSSR hero Tom is accompanying Lin Meiqi, who is also SSSR, to search for parts on the sports car.

The task of searching and rescuing survivors is left to Xia Yousheng, who is also an SR.

Vice Captain Shen Jiayi, the SR hero, is of course guarding the bridge of the ark, closely monitoring the surrounding situation and providing support at any time.

As for Shen Jiayi, who has a super strong memory and comes with a city map, why is she just like Pan Ruyi, an SR. People who don't want to be rated as R will not hesitate.

Xia Yousheng and his team have already penetrated through a gap under a huge stone, and according to the sound radar provided by Liu Lian, there are two living traces behind this ruins.

They have 18 people with 12 guns, 5 hand grenades, two rocket launchers, and two worker ant Type IV armor, so it can be said that they have no problem facing ordinary mutated creatures.

After passing through gaps and encountering two dead ends before turning around, they successfully climbed up to the second floor of this half collapsed building.

The scorching wind made people extremely hot, and Pan Ruyi felt sticky on her body. However, looking at the decaying house covered in weeds and ivy in the distance, she couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

Pan Xun led him to join the ark, and in the end, some of their vague memories and thoughts were cleared in Shen Jiayi's spiritual world.

Originally, in Courtyard 8, Liang Guodong, the captain of the Spring Knife Squad, also had a hidden ability called "Loyalty Command", which slowly but persistently made psychological hints to others by staying together frequently. That's why among so many Awakeners in the Eighth Courtyard, the 16th ranked Spring Knife team has the highest level of tacit understanding.

So after Shen Liansheng imprisoned Shen Jiayi, he created a conflict between ordinary people and awakened ones, and then used the reason of protecting awakened ones to collectively house the awakened ones in the Eighth Courtyard. This gave Liang Guodong the opportunity to influence the minds of other awakened people.

This troublemaker who has always had a crooked mind immediately defected to Shen Liansheng, which is why he hinted to other awakeners and made them subconsciously obey Shen Liansheng's command. Liang Guodong was able to serve as the captain of the awakened army.

However, this ability is not invincible. People with strong minds or defenses can resist it. No wonder Pan Xun's original leader of the Pasha team, Zhao Zijian, rose up in rebellion and was ultimately shot by Shen Liansheng.

And these awakened individuals with slightly weaker minds were unconsciously brainwashed by Liang Guodong. No wonder during that time, Pan Ruyi felt a headache whenever she suspected the high-level officials of the shelter of slandering Shen Jiayi and Tom. It turned out that this was one of the effects of brainwashing.

That is to say, Pan Xun was chaotic and chaotic, but after Shen Jiayi appeared in the ark, he returned to Qingming and had to rush towards the ark.

Finally, Pan Ruyi thought of his brother Pan Mingda again. His heart was very firm, so Liang Guodong's brainwashing was difficult to work, which is why his brother was imprisoned and never released.

I don't know if my current brother has been brainwashed by Liang Guodong, or if he has been executed because he saw through Liang Guodong's tricks.

Both of these results were not what Pan Ruyi wanted to see, but as the head of the medical department, Sister Cheng Mei, advised them, "We are unable to rescue our relatives and friends in the shelter at the moment, but we still need to constantly hone ourselves and grow. Only when the Ark has the strength to resist them can we counterattack and rescue them."

Pan Ruyi was divergent in her thinking, but she was poked by Pan Xun and said, "Brother Ru, you have deviated again. Captain Xiazi has asked us to be on guard."

"What's going on?" Pan Ruyi was taken aback for a moment, then crawled forward and came to Xia Yousheng, who was fully armed. "Captain, what's the situation?"

"Ahead, someone is shouting for help." Xia Yousheng's face was solemn. "We have found survivors."

"Really? That's great! Let's go over and save them quickly!" Pan Ruyi was about to stand up, but was grabbed by Xia Yousheng. "Don't be busy, they've been enduring it for over a year and don't mind waiting a little longer. If it's safe, it doesn't matter if we go sooner or later."

Pan Ruyi felt that Xia Yousheng was too cautious, but as the team leader, he couldn't object, as violating orders would result in punishment.

As Xia Yousheng made a few gestures, the soldiers quietly dispersed and occupied various advantageous positions, ensuring that there were no threatening targets around, which signaled Pan Ruyi to slowly approach him.

Around a large stone, in the center of the marble floor, they saw two people lying there, covered in blood.

Xia Yousheng once again grabbed and wanted to run over to Pan Ruyi. He waved his hand and let the soldiers behind him obtain a new threat corner before walking over.

"You're too timid," Pan Ruyi muttered in displeasure. "They left so much blood, and the smell of blood was so strong. If there were insects or something around, they would have followed the smell and eaten them all long ago."

That's right, Pan Ruyi walked closer and saw that the two survivors were both women, naked. Her heart beat faster and she thought to herself, "The hero saved the beauty and might be cured. The other party would be grateful to her and finally let her get rid of her loneliness.".

"Help..." The white flower girl was covered in blood and immediately shouted for help when she saw them. Xia Yousheng quickly walked over and said, "How are you?"

"Great!" The girl hugged Xia Yousheng, which made Pan Ruyi very jealous. She thought this bastard was too cunning, but fortunately, there was another girl, so he crouched down and went to grab her hand.

"Damn it, run!" Xia Yousheng pushed the girl away and pulled Pan Ruyi away. Then the soldiers in charge of guarding nearby shouted loudly, "What the hell is this?"

He turned his head and saw many tall people suddenly emerging from the ground in all directions, with green skin and pus all over their bodies and twisted faces. They let out mournful cries and rushed towards the soldiers.

"Fire, everyone!" Xia Yousheng dragged Pan Ruyi to run and shouted, "They are mutants, and this is really a trap!"

Pan Ruyi took a few steps before turning into him pulling Xia Yousheng. He lowered his head and saw that a black bone tube had been inserted into Xia Yousheng's abdomen, and blood kept flowing out of the tube, causing a chill in his heart.
