Almost in the blink of an eye, the distance between the crows and the helicopter had been shortened significantly, and was still approaching rapidly.
"It's a group of mutant crows." Jiang Xun frowned slightly, also feeling a little tricky.
Jiang Mi retracted the telescope, his expression cold, "Compared to normal crows, these mutant crows are obviously larger and faster, but their weakness is that they are afraid of fire."
She had encountered a flock of mutant crows in her previous life, but that was on the ground. Now that she was in the air, it was inevitably a little difficult to deal with.
"Shall we land nearby?" Jiang Xun controlled the helicopter to descend slowly to avoid a head-on conflict with the crows.
Jiang Mi sighed, "Go down a little, then let's see your sister's performance!"
Jiang Xun glanced sideways when he heard that, but didn't ask any more questions. The crows were already very close, and a collision would occur in thirty seconds at most. Even though the helicopter was not flying forward at full speed, it was only for civilian use after all. It was hard to guarantee how long it could last facing the impact of the mutant crows.
The helicopter began to descend rapidly and soon hovered in the air several hundred meters high. Jiang Mi took out a special-shaped gun from the space. The barrel of the gun was thicker and longer than that of a normal gun.
When the plane door was opened, strong winds instantly rushed into the cabin. Jiang Mi held the fuselage with one hand and leaned most of his body out. He carried the gun on his right shoulder and looked in the sight at the approaching flock of crows.
The red crosshairs were aimed at the densest part of the crows. Jiang Mi curled the corners of his lips slightly and slowly pulled the trigger with his index finger.
The next moment, an invisible wave visible to the naked eye passed through the air and fell into the crows.
"boom!!!"
A huge and blazing flame erupted from the crows, like a small mushroom cloud of fire. The black crows fell down like dumplings. In just three seconds, the black crows were reduced by two-thirds!
The huge movement made the helicopters that were closer shake slightly. Jiang Mi squinted his eyes, and after confirming that he didn't need to fire another round, he retreated into the cabin.
Close the door and the strong wind will stop.
Jiang Mi bared his teeth and put the gun back into space, and quickly reached out to rub his right shoulder, "It's fun to show off, but if you hit me again, my right shoulder will be broken."
Although only one shot was fired, my entire right shoulder almost lost feeling.
Jiang Xun couldn't help but smile as he heard her muttering, "This weapon is not bad."
"The gun is fine, but the bullets are expensive." Jiang Mi couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he thought about the price of the gun and the bullets. "The total price of the gun and the bullets is 20 million, and the bullets account for two-thirds of the price, 3 million per bullet."
As she spoke, she looked at the flock of crows flying in all directions. Some of the crows were still on fire and were falling one after another.
"All this is money. I only bought five of these compressed explosive bombs, and I paid a premium for them." Jiang Mi hated the black-hearted businessman, but there was nothing she could do. He saw that she was an Asian and didn't seem to have any background. In addition, he wanted the goods in a hurry, so he doubled the price. She could only accept it and be thankful that he didn't want to return the goods to the original owner.
In the end, she could only comfort herself by saying that in a few days the money would turn into paper.
And now, I don't know if that damn profiteer is still alive. It's best not to let her meet him!
After grinding his teeth, Jiang Mi took out a candy from the space, lifted the filter, quickly threw it into his mouth, and then put it on.
The sweet taste on her tongue made her feel much more comfortable.
Jiang Xun chuckled and said in a teasing tone: "You weren't afraid of heights just now?"
Jiang Mi glanced at him, took out a candy and stuffed it into his mouth.
The helicopter took off again, and without any further accidents, it landed smoothly in the suburbs of P City.
It was exactly noon.
The gray sky seemed to brighten up a little, and a little sunshine could be vaguely seen behind the thick dark clouds.
As soon as he got off the plane, Jiang Mi couldn't wait to stretch his muscles.
The co-pilot seat in the helicopter was not very comfortable. After flying for nearly six hours, my buttocks were sore, and my right shoulder was aching slightly, making it really difficult to sit still.
The place where they were parked now was in the outermost rural area of P City. There were some low self-built houses all around. Covered with thick gray snow, there was no one in sight.
"The radiation concentration here is much lower." Jiang Xun looked down at the radiation detector in his hand.
"After all, it's in the hinterland, so far from the coast, so the impact of seawater pollution is naturally smaller." Jiang Mi's stomach growled as he finished speaking. He rubbed his hungry stomach and looked around. "But this is good news. A high concentration of radiation will accelerate the speed of mutation. A low concentration also means that even if there are people with special abilities in P City, there won't be many, and the threat to us will be smaller."
Jiang Xun nodded, indicating that he agreed with her statement.
"Let's find a place to have a good meal first. There's no rush to search." Jiang Mi looked at the village not far away and smiled, "What if we run into some survivors who know about Xing Shaoan?"
Xing Shaoan is the name of that researcher.
The surname Xing is relatively rare, which greatly facilitates their search work.
The gray snow was not above their ankles, not too high. With a creaking sound, the two men walked slowly towards the village.
The snow along the way was extremely flat, without any signs of human life or animal activity. It seemed safe, but Jiang Mi frowned slightly.
Jiang Xun also noticed something unusual.
The two finally stopped at the edge of the village and did not go in.
"There's no one here. Is there not even any mutant creatures?" Jiang Xun murmured in a low voice as he looked at the quiet and desolate village that seemed to be deserted.
Mutated animals are still animals and they also have the need to eat. After the apocalypse, food resources are extremely tight, and even animals cannot avoid it. Even though they are afraid of the light and don't like to go out during the day, they always have to go out at night.
But now, looking around, the snow surface as far as the eye can see is extremely smooth, and there is no trace other than their footprints.
Is there no living thing in the whole village?
Although it is possible, it is too small.
It's better to believe that there is something wrong in this village.
Jiang Mi turned his head to look at Jiang Xun, and met his gaze. When they looked at each other, they both understood each other's intentions.
"Be careful."
Jiang Mi nodded slightly, and the two of them changed their postures and walked towards the village vigilantly.
There was no wind today, and the only sound that could be heard was the crunching of snow as the two people stepped on it. It was so quiet that it made people feel a little uneasy.
The village is not big, and all the houses are self-built, almost all of them are flat. There is a small yard in front of each house. The door of the first house is wide open, and a wooden table can be seen inside the house at a glance, with dishes and chopsticks on the table.
Jiang Mi approached slowly, stood at the door and looked inside. There was a bed in the back of the room, and on the bed there was a bulging black shadow that looked like a person lying down and sleeping.
