"A mutated zombie that was forced to have its tail cut off and tried to escape."
Based on the information obtained from the chip scan, Enzo quickly understood the status and murmured to himself, "So, what is it that is chasing this mutant zombie? A stronger mutant beast?"
"Or... Hunter?"
While Enzo was thinking, another figure appeared in the plane. It was a muscular man wearing gray leather armor with brown hair tied behind his head. There was a long and narrow scar on his weathered face, making him even more dangerous.
temperament.
"It's indeed a hunter!"
Enzo's heart moved, and he frowned and said, "But, why don't you wear a mecha, and your strength should not exceed the first-level life form."
The Hunters of Aquamarine World are powerful because of their mechas.
It is precisely because they have the ability to control mechas that they can compete with the terrifying mutant beasts. They belong to a world where technology and force coexist.
Outside, the hunters have caught up with the mutated zombies.
"Stay here obediently!"
The hunter made a cold voice, pulled off a suitcase from behind, and gently pressed the switch on it. The suitcase suddenly made a mechanical sound, and in a moment it rotated and decomposed into a giant scythe.
brush!!
The suitcase turned into a scythe, full of mechanical feeling, and the blade burned with flames when it was swung, making the hunter look like a god of death and easily cut off the head of a mutated zombie.
"hiss!!"
The head in the middle of the mutant zombie let out a sharp scream, and at the same time, the other head opened its mouth and sprayed out acid. After being dodged by the hunter, it fell on the iron sheet on the ground, which immediately corroded the iron sheet into slag.
"snort!"
The hunter snorted coldly, stepped forward again, swung the mechanical sickle, and chopped off the other head of the mutated zombie. Only the mutated zombie with the middle head was left, screaming and leaping into the air.
The loss of two heads greatly reduced the mutant zombie's combat power.
But at the same time, he seemed to be faster. The severed tail had grown back like a gecko. Then, his limbs seemed to secrete mucus and moved quickly depending on the surrounding terrain.
The hunter's expression remained unchanged as he casually swung the mechanical sickle.
The original shape of the giant sickle changed again, becoming a circular steel pipe. A ball of energy slowly condensed, and then shot out in an instant.
boom!
In mid-air, the jumping mutated zombies were blasted to pieces by energy cannons. Their bodies flew everywhere and fell like blood rain.
But at this time, the hunters were already prepared.
The metal round tube changed for the third time, becoming a mechanical umbrella that shielded the hunter from the rain of blood falling from the sky.
Then, the hunter put away the mechanical umbrella.
Returning to the suitcase state, the hunter carried it behind his back. Then he walked forward and rummaged through the scattered flesh and blood of the mutated zombies. After a moment, he shook his head helplessly.
"What a pity, still not."
The hunter sighed, then looked not far away and said softly, "Stop hiding in there, come out."
Suddenly, Wayne and others were shocked.
The direction the hunter was looking at was the ruined cave where several people were hiding. Apparently, the other party had discovered them.
"What should I do?" Wayne's face turned pale.
They have already seen the strength of the hunter outside. It is not something that a small team can compete with. Even with Enzo, the result will be the same.
"Just listen to him."
Uriah's face also turned a little pale, but he gritted his teeth and said, "We can't compete with such a hunter at all. The opponent is very strong, but he may not take action against small characters like us."
After saying that, Uriah took a deep breath.
He took the lead to walk out of the ruins cave, followed closely by the others. Enzo's expression was very indifferent, and he did not feel any hostility from the hunter.
"Hello, respected Lord Hunter."
Uriah took a step forward and said with a humble attitude: "We have no ill intentions, we are just afraid of disturbing the battle, so we hid."
"Scavengers nearby?" The scavenger raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, sir." Uriah's heart moved and she said, "We come from underground shelter No. 72 and are subordinates of Johnny Boss."
Uriah lied.
Although several people did come from Vault 72, they were not Mad Dog Johnny's men, and they were not even minions. The reason why they used the name Mad Dog Johnny was just to frighten the hunters on the opposite side.
The desolate one.
However, the hunter opposite shook his head slightly.
"Underground Vault 72? Johnny? Never heard of it." The hunter paused and asked in a deep voice, "Since you are scavengers nearby, have you discovered anything unusual recently, such as picking up
Something?"
As soon as these words came out, Wayne's expression suddenly changed.
Uriah's face turned even paler, but she pretended to be calm and said with a smile: "I'm so sorry, Mr. Waste Hunter, we are just a group of weak scavengers, repeating our life day after day, and nothing happened."
abnormal."
For Wayne's small team, the robotic arm is the biggest anomaly.
The hunter's inquiry was fatal to several people, including Uriah, who were unwilling to give up the mechanical arm. Therefore, even at the risk of being killed, Uriah chose to hide it.
However, the changes made by Wayne and others were not hidden from the hunters.
His eyes flashed, a playful smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "Oh? Are you sure? Although they are just a few scavengers, I think you should know very well what the price of deceiving me will be, right?"
Uriah's face turned pale as a sheet of paper as if struck by lightning.
Next to him, Wayne still gritted his teeth and shook his head and said, "I'm extremely sorry, Mr. Hunter, the garbage dump has been the same as usual recently, nothing happened."
When Wayne finished speaking, the hunter narrowed his eyes slightly.
A dangerous aura emanated from his body, and Enzo's heart trembled. This body was still too weak for the time being, but if he fought to the death, with the help of the chip, and at some cost, he should be able to deal with the hunter in front of him.
Not difficult.
The winning rate is at least 80%.
Even if he loses in the end, it will be easy for Enzo to escape, but if he does so, the safety of Wayne and others cannot be guaranteed. Now that he has inherited this body, Enzo does not want to abandon his companions casually.
"Take it out, Boss Wayne."
At this time, Uriah suddenly spoke with a pale face and said: "Even if we resist, it is meaningless. It is simply easy for the hunter to kill us."
"It would be easy for him to take that thing from our bodies!"
"Ulea..." Wayne bit his lip, his face full of unwillingness.
"Haha! What a funny little guy."
The hunter laughed loudly, shook his head and said, "Okay, little guys, take out the things. That thing is not for you to enjoy. For the sake of being so interesting to you, I can give you some compensation."
"Thank you, sir." Uriah sighed.
After that, he took the backpack from Wayne, and with Wayne's unwilling eyes, he took out the mechanical arm that was regarded as a treasure by the small team, caressed it reluctantly, and then held it in front of the hunter's eyes.
"I hope you can forgive us for deceiving us," Uriah said solemnly.
However, the hunter frowned slightly.
"That's it?"
Uriah was stunned for a moment.
"A dilapidated mechanical arm, all the internal parts are broken, and it cannot be used even if it is installed on the rack." The hunter narrowed his eyes slightly and said with dangerous eyes: "Are you going to use this thing to fool me?"
A terrifying aura erupted, and Uriah couldn't help but take two steps back.
"I... don't understand what you mean."
Under the pressure of the strong momentum, Uriah had difficulty breathing and hesitated, "Isn't this what you are looking for?"
The hunter looked directly at Uriah, then shook his head helplessly.
"Damn, I was so stupid."
The hunter raised his hand to hold his forehead and said with a wry smile, "That thing is fatally attractive to mutant beasts and zombies. How could it fall into the hands of a few scavengers?"
Then, he shook his head again.
"Forget it, it's my fault. I shouldn't have had hope in you. You should keep this thing to yourself."
"You're not going to steal this robotic arm?" Wayne's eyes lit up.
The scavenger glanced at him, shook his head and said, "The defective products removed from the Type A mechanical armor have almost no value at all. I am afraid that only scavengers will treat such things as treasures."
Not far away, Enzo was thoughtful.
It seems that everything is a misunderstanding. What the hunter is looking for is not this mechanical arm at all. To him, this kind of thing is useless garbage and takes up space even in his backpack.
However, if you think about it carefully, if it is not a defective product, how could this robotic arm appear in the junkyard?
"Goodbye, funny little guy."
Then, the wilderness hunter didn't want to waste any more time. He waved his hand and said, "It's going to be dark soon. Let's go back to the shelter. As a friendly reminder, it's best not to appear in the wilderness in the near future."
"Not every hunter is as kind as me."
After saying that, the hunter was ready to leave.
However, at this time, Uriah suddenly raised his head and said, "Wait a minute, Lord Hunter, please tell me your name, please!"
The hunter was stunned, raised his eyebrows and said, "Name?"
"Yes." Uriah rolled his eyes and took a deep breath and said, "Please tell me your name so that I can repay your kindness in the future."
"Repay me?"
The hunter was a little surprised and thought: "It seems that I really didn't do anything, right? Why should you repay me? At least there needs to be a reason."
"Lord Hunter, you should be very clear about the rules of the Wasteland."
Uriah's face turned red and he said flatteringly: "The weak deceives the strong and should be killed according to the rules, but you didn't take action against us. This is naturally a kind of kindness not to kill! So, please give me a way to repay you."
Chance."
The hunter was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter: "Hahaha! The grace of not killing? It's so interesting, okay, little guy, let me tell you, I am the hunter Hai from the Lighthouse Floating City
Le.”
"If you have a chance, you can come to the Lighthouse Floating City to find me."
"Because you are so interesting, I will give you something." After saying that, Hunter Heller took out a worn white paper from his arms and threw it directly into Yulea's hands.
"This book contains some mechanical knowledge. If you can understand it, you may have the opportunity to disassemble the robotic arm. Although it has been scrapped, the parts inside may be of some value to you."
"Okay, I'm leaving. I hope we can meet again."
After throwing the white paper to Uriah, Heller turned around and left gracefully, and disappeared from everyone's sight in a moment. The other party seemed to be looking for something, so he was in a hurry.
As Hunter Heller left, Wayne and others breathed a sigh of relief.
The pressure brought by the opponent was too terrifying. Uriah knew very well that Heller could easily kill everyone at any time if he wanted to, so he obediently handed over the mechanical arm. Enzo was a little surprised by this decisiveness.
"Kindness in the wasteland world is rarer than fresh water."
Uriah looked at the white paper in his hand, a smile appeared on his face, and murmured: "It seems that today is really our lucky day."
Although in the wasteland world, accidents can happen at any time.
But today, it was too twists and turns for Wayne's small team. First, Enzo was scratched by a zombie, then he found a mechanical arm, and then discovered that Enzo's body had become alienated, so they went to the depths of the garbage dump to kill the mutated zombies.
Finally, on the way back, I met the kind-hearted Heller.
"Fortunately, the robotic arm hugged me."
Wayne didn't think too much. He took the mechanical arm from Uriah's hand and touched it like a treasure, with a smile on his face.
"The value of this thing is not as high as you think."
Next to him, Uriah shook his head and sighed, "Didn't you listen to what the hunter just said? This mechanical arm has been completely scrapped. At most, it will be dismantled and the parts will be sold."
Anything that can appear in a garbage dump is naturally garbage.
The same is true for this robotic arm. Although it looks very mechanical, it has actually been scrapped. In Heller's eyes, it is even trash that is thrown on the ground and will not be picked up.
"Ulea, show me that book."
At this time, Enzo suddenly spoke. Before Heller left, he had given Uriah a white paper, which contained some mechanical knowledge. Enzo planned to use the chip record to learn more about it.
Uriah did not hesitate and threw the white paper to Enzo.
"Can you understand?" Wayne was a little surprised.
In his understanding, Enzo was just like him. He fought very hard, but he didn't care about reading. He didn't even know more than a hundred words. Now he actually asked to read. It was really strange.
"Just looking around."
Enzo shook his head and glanced at the contents of the white paper. In addition to the recorded text, there were more patterns composed of lines. It indeed recorded knowledge about mechanics, but this knowledge was a bit too basic.
