Although this ruined city is not big, the prosperity of the past can still be vaguely seen. The long streets are well planned and the buildings on both sides are well-proportioned. You can also see the wreckage of many speeding cars among the trees and grass.
There had obviously been battles here, and the surfaces of many buildings were seriously damaged, and there were many large potholes on the road.
Wang Chen even discovered the wreckage of a downed aerial fighter plane.
The battle situation in a small place has been so fierce. You can imagine how tragic the scene was when Planet Tempus faced the massive invasion of the Nether Tribe!
As Wang Chen moved forward, he deployed his spiritual power to search.
Due to the suppression of strange energy, he could only reduce the scope of his psychic exploration to within five hundred meters, otherwise the consumption of mental power would increase exponentially and he would not be able to persist for a long time.
In this way, Wang Chen searched for more than ten kilometers among the ruins of the city, but found nothing.
Just when he was about to change direction, the spiritual energy released suddenly was triggered and produced a strong feedback.
Wang Chen immediately looked to the right and quickened his pace without thinking.
A moment later, he saw two figures jumping out of the building not far away, escaping from something in a panic.
In the blink of an eye, a tawny monitor lizard rushed out and gave chase!
Wang Chen's heart moved, and he "switched" the shotgun in his hand into a large-caliber sniper rifle.
He picked up the sniper rifle and observed the situation with the scope.
The people being chased by the giant lizard were a pair of boys and girls. They looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. They were wearing tight sportswear and carrying backpacks, with daggers on their waists.
It's just that they didn't have any weapons in their hands, and the man seemed to be injured, with a little blood left along the way.
Although the monitor lizard is huge, it is also very fast.
Seeing that the two of them were about to be overtaken by this ferocious monster, the young man suddenly stopped and pulled out his dagger, roaring: "Run quickly, leave me alone!"
The girl cried: "Brother!"
The boy turned around to face the charging giant lizard and roared decisively: "Go to hell!"
boom!
The next moment, the monitor lizard's head exploded like a watermelon hit by a heavy hammer, and the contents inside instantly spurted out, splashing the brave young man in the face.
The monster flew sideways in a spin, and was still struggling painfully when it landed. Its long tail whipped the surrounding grass, making a crackling sound.
boom!
Another high-explosive bomb hit its lower jaw, penetrated into its brain, and then exploded violently.
Most of the monitor lizard's head was blown off!
This scene shocked both the brother and sister. They stood there in confusion and forgot to wipe the dirt off their faces.
Wang Chen put away his sniper rifle and walked towards the two of them.
After a while, the brother and sister came to their senses. The girl threw herself into her brother's arms, her thin body trembling.
The young man held the dagger tightly in his hand and looked at Wang Chen who was walking towards him with a wary expression.
Wang Chen stopped twenty or thirty meters away from them, smiled and said, "Hello."
To be honest, he was quite surprised, because Planet Tempus had fallen three years ago, and with the ferocity and ability of the Nether Tribe, they had not completely wiped out the humans on this planet.
Wang Chen doesn’t think these siblings are the only survivors!
The young man's expression changed, he hesitated and said, "Hello, thank you for saving us."
Wang Chen nodded and asked, "Who are you?"
The young man was obviously very nervous. He swallowed subconsciously, and then carefully answered: "My sister and I are reserve citizens of the d01359 base."
On the contrary, his sister was not very afraid and looked at Wang Chen with her big eyes blinking with curiosity in her eyes.
"You don't have to be afraid."
Wang Chen smiled and said, "I'm here to find someone. Please take a look, have you seen these?"
people."
As he spoke, he took out a stack of photos from his pocket, stepped forward and handed them to the other party.
These photos were specially printed, personal photos of Xu Chengzhi and the members of his special team.
The young man was surprised to see these brand-new photos, but he still took them and looked at them carefully one by one.
Finally, he shook his head and replied, "I've never seen it."
His sister also looked at it and shook her head as well.
Wang Chen was not disappointed at all, he nodded and said, "Thank you."
The young man returned the photo to Wang Chen, gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, are you a warrior?"
Wang Chen affirmed: "Yes."
"Then let me take you to the base to have a look. Maybe someone has seen it."
Wang Chen smiled.
This little guy is thoughtful, and he obviously hopes to gain his protection by making such a suggestion.
He asked curiously: "How many people are there in your base?"
In fact, when the other party told them the base number, Wang Chen knew the origins of the siblings.
Before the fall of Planet Tempus, it had been built into an outpost fortress by the empire. Due to the needs of the long-term war, numerous large and small underground bases were built on this planet.
These bases are divided into four levels according to Abcd. Level D is the largest in number and the smallest in scale.
The young man hesitated for a moment and then replied: "There are still more than 300 people in our base..."
His expression was very sad.
"More than three hundred?"
Wang Chen raised his eyebrows: "What are you doing here on the ground? Don't you have enough supplies?"
You must know that a D-level base can accommodate up to three thousand people, and the normal standard reserves of materials and energy are enough to support the full complement of personnel for at least five years.
"Most of the equipment in the base is damaged and can no longer be used, and there is not much left in the reserve."
The young man smiled bitterly and said: "There are not many in the first place. If we want to fill our stomachs, we can only search on the ground."
"So that's what it is."
Wang Chen said calmly: "Then take me to have a look, maybe I can find clues."
The other party spoke hesitantly, so he probably had something going on inside.
He didn't care about it, he just hoped that someone in the d01359 base had seen Xu Chengzhi.
Although it's unlikely.
But having hope is better than running around like a headless fly.
Wang Chen took out a first aid kit from his backpack and found an aerosol spray to stop the bleeding and disinfect the boy's wounds.
The young man was very grateful: "Thank you, sir. My name is Zhang Shen, and she is my sister Zhang Qian."
Zhang Qian said timidly: "Sir, thank you for saving us."
As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach suddenly made a growling sound.
The girl's face suddenly turned red.
Wang Chen smiled and took out two more energy bars from his backpack and handed them to them: "Eat so you can go on your way."
As a result, the brother and sister were dumbfounded when faced with ordinary energy bars: "Ah!"
When Zhang Shen and Zhang Qian tore open the wrapping paper and ate the sweet energy bars, both siblings shed tears.
