Inside The Black Mist Chapter 62: Ambition
Now, the convoy is located on a hillside, and there is a road extending along the hillside towards the town. At intervals on the road, a signboard is erected. On the plates that should have been green, there were some symbols painted in white paint.
Some symbols are very close to the numbers that Tianyang is familiar with, and they appear on the road, so Lao Xu, who is known as [Niejietong], guesses that these symbols are used to show the distance.
Because there are many road signs like this on the road to the metropolis.
Looking from a distance from a high place, the town shrouded in black fog can only vaguely see the outlines of some buildings.
However, judging from the few small towns that Nightcrawler has explored, the scale of a town like this is far smaller than that of a metropolis.
Although the buildings inside have several floors of high-rise buildings or buildings, they are far from the skyscrapers with dozens of floors in the metropolis.
However, like the metropolis, there are obviously no protective fortifications on the outskirts of these small towns, let alone weapons. This can't help but make people sigh, although the reverse world has become the ghost it is now. But the residents living here once had a long period of peaceful and happy time.
Staying on the high **** for a while, the two Falcon chariots began to descend to Huanggu Town.
After going down the ramp for 10 minutes, the two chariots had to stop. Because at the entrance of the town, there is a building similar to a checkpoint.
The building was of course abandoned, and because of the ages, it also collapsed, which blocked the road.
The metropolis also has checkpoints like this, and there are more of them on a larger scale, so Tianyang and the others are no strangers.
It’s just that the checkpoints in Metropolis are obviously of better quality, and quite a few entrances are still usable. But at present, it seems that we can only do some cleaning first, otherwise the car can't get in at all.
"Captain, have you been bombarded?" Cang Du, who was in charge of driving the chariot, looked back at Han Shu.
Han Shu shook his head: "Don't, there's too much noise. If there are a lot of black people inside, why don't we dig a hole for ourselves?"
He thought for a while and said: "Tianyang, Lao Xu, take a few people to go around the town first, and see where a temporary camp is suitable for setting up nearby. Let's clean this up, and then go to meet you."
"Okay."
"No problem."
Tianyang and Lao Xu answered in unison.
Next, the two of them led three soldiers through some gaps in the ruins of the checkpoint and entered the town.
The fog in the town is very thick, probably because it is located in a valley, the ubiquitous black fog in the reverse world gathers here in large quantities, resulting in very low visibility.
Tianyang held the assaulter rifle and installed a tactical lighting accessory on it. Even so, the light could barely reach two or three meters away.
Entering from the checkpoint is a road, and car wreckage can be seen everywhere on the road. It can be seen that the former Negative Realm had a very developed transportation system. Even a small town has so many vehicles.
Moreover, judging from the models, it seems that the residents of Nijie also designed cars into several types to meet different needs.
This shows that in the social system of the reverse world, there is a clear division of labor, and the height they have reached in this respect is still above the fortress city.
Walking for about 10 minutes along this road full of vehicle wreckage and cracked pavement. A large bridge appeared in front of the team, it crossed a thick fog, and it didn't know where to go.
"The productivity of Nijie is far higher than ours. It can be seen from this bridge alone. We can't build such a big and long bridge. Of course, there is no need for it." Old Xu Looking at the bridge looming in the black mist, I was quite moved.
Tianyang made a gesture, indicating that he was exploring the way ahead. In the middle are three soldiers, and Lao Xu is in charge of breaking the rear.
The team walked onto the bridge. The bridge deck was unexpectedly spacious, with a metal barrier in the middle that divided the bridge into two halves.
Even so, half of the bridge deck can still accommodate two vehicles at the same time.
Tianyang was walking along the edge of the bridge, suddenly in the light, behind the fog, several black shadows stretched upwards.
When he took a closer look, it turned out to be cables. Two of them had been broken, and judging from the breaks, these cables should be composed of some kind of wire.
The more he walked on the bridge, the more Tianyang heard the sound of wind coming from under the bridge.
Although the light can't illuminate the space under the bridge at all, from the sound of the wind, it can be inferred that the space under the bridge is huge, and it may be a cracked abyss leading to the ground.
A soldier suggested throwing a few light sticks under the bridge to have a look. Old Xu immediately rejected the proposal: "But be careful when you encounter a huge space in the reverse world, because you won't know, what's inside it What are you hiding?"
After hearing this sentence, the soldier was frightened for a while. There was a break in the middle of the arch bridge, and one-third of the bridge deck disappeared. On the irregular edges, there were long and short rusty steel bars.
The team carefully walked around the gap and finally walked down the bridge after 20 minutes.
From the bridge, there is an open space with unknown function, but it can be used as a temporary camp.
Tianyang led the soldiers, and when he was setting up a cordon around him, Old Xu was fiddling with an electronic board.
In the electronic board, a map of the team's exploration route has been made, and Lao Xu is marking it. He specially marked the warning words of gaps on the bridge and the location of the temporary camp, and then sent the map to Han Shu .
With it, Han Shu can walk over without the need for the team to turn back and lead the way.
Having set up the cordon, Tian Yang came back with three soldiers, Lao Xu threw a water bottle to him: "The captain and the others will be here soon, let's take a rest."
After taking the kettle, Tianyang was not polite, took a few sips, and then said: "Brother Xu, you should have a family, so why do you still live in the apartment."
Anyway, it will take a while for Han Shu and the others to arrive, and Lao Xu didn't mind chatting a few words, and said, "That's all in the past, you know, to become a Shangmin, as long as you accumulate a certain amount of contribution points , you can have the right to establish a clan."
Tianyang nodded: "If you accumulate more than 100,000 contribution points, you can start your own family. The descendants have the right to inherit the relevant rights..."
"Yes, but there are also regulations in the fortress. The inheritance right is limited to within three generations. From the fourth generation onwards, you must get 10,000 contribution points every year. Otherwise, the inheritance right will be cancelled." Old Xu shrugged, "Unfortunately, A few years ago, I was injured during a mission and had to take care of it for more than half a year. As a result, I couldn’t get enough contribution points to maintain my inheritance rights, so I had to move into an apartment.”
"By the way, the kid in Cangdu is in the same situation as me. It's just that I don't have any pursuits anymore, but that kid wants to accumulate 100,000 contribution points so that he can restore his original surname."
Tianyang was quite surprised, it turned out that the young man with the ponytail still had such ambitions.
"There is a situation!"
Suddenly, the cry of soldiers came from a distance.
Tianyang and Lao Xu didn't care about chatting any more, they picked up their rifles, and the two hurried away.
