Early the next morning, the convoy set out for Green Forest City in full condition. Raeder had no choice but to follow the convoy to its destination, and then get her and Xiao Wu's share of the reward. Because she turned the tide for the convoy,
The guard captain promised that as long as she was willing to explain everything that happened to the company's upper management, she could also get the rewards of the fallen hunters. Of course, she couldn't take the initiative to deal with the consortium, so she naturally refused the request. She herself was not interested in money.
She cares about it, but now she can't use her account and must get cash to cope with the coming days.
The road to Green Forest City is indeed smooth sailing. Along the way there are not only hardened roads in the wild that are rare in this era, transmission and communication line towers, but also armed watchtowers stationed on the highlands, as well as patrols and aircraft that appear from time to time. Such a dense civilization.
The breath made the nearby wasteland much more friendly. Everyone in the team relaxed their nerves that were about to collapse and took this opportunity to relax. Even the hunters who were wary of each other temporarily put down their guard and gathered together to talk or talk.
A small gamble. Once we entered the city, everyone became strangers again and went their separate ways.
The girl is still in a melancholy state. She doesn't want to talk to strangers, nor does she want to play those boring games that hunters like, so she can only sit on the roof of the car and watch the scenery. The scenery around Green Forest City is quite distinctive, and the mountains in the distance are like
A huge ring of city walls protects the area where Green Forest City is located, making it look like a city within a city. It is said that this place was a nature reserve in the previous era, so it was able to survive the land-washing by nuclear bombs and preserve it.
It has a basically unpolluted freshwater lake and a large number of natural creatures. It is precisely because of this significant advantage that this place has become the only oasis in the post-apocalyptic world, as well as a rich and powerful super consortium. This place
The city expands every few years, and its current size is said to be ten times what it was when it was founded. If city walls had not been built to guard against the threat of the Death City, the city might have developed into what it was in the previous era.
Open city area.
"Is this... grass?"
The silhouette of the city skyline could already be seen in front of her, and those towering super buildings were like giant pillars reaching the sky. They could actually be seen at the rest stop. But none of these things attracted the girl's attention. She noticed
What is gradually appearing on the roadside are clusters of gray-yellow messy things that look like balls of thread.
"Why is there grass here?"
Raeder couldn't restrain her curiosity and asked the hunter in the car. In her impression, plants should only appear in the gardens of Paradise District, or in the flower pots of her own home and company.
But it is absolutely impossible to appear in the wilderness. The harsh environment, polluted land and scarce rainfall have exterminated most of the living things, including plants. Even the most tenacious weeds cannot theoretically survive.
Saw it in the wild.
"Is this your first time coming to Green Forest City? The plants growing in the wild are the most special scenery here. There are not only grasses, but also trees ahead. Some people come all the way here just to see the real scenery.
What are the plants like? It is said that in the last era, this place was a forest wilderness... the kind that was green everywhere in the data. Later, the environment was destroyed and the rainfall became less and less, so most of the plants here died. But because of the
The underground water system is rich, and there are still some plants that have survived. These are the ones we have now. When you enter the city, you can see even more magical sights, so you can look forward to it.”
The person who answered her was a hunter who was talkative and knowledgeable. Everyone in the team had already guessed that Raeder was from a certain consortium, so they became respectful when speaking to her. They didn't expect to hear anything from her.
What benefits does the girl gain from this, as long as she doesn't get into trouble?
"Yes, this is my first time here."
Raeder looked at these tenacious lives in fascination. Some of them were completely withered, and some still had some green left. Not far ahead, some thick and slightly twisted trees took root in the barren land.
The sparse yellow-green leaves swayed gently in the breeze. The girl had never seen these rough-looking plants, whether they were grass or trees, they looked as wild and primitive as those crazy scavengers. But maybe only in this way can they survive
survive in this environment.
As we get closer and closer to the city, the number and types of plants in the wild are also increasing, and finally there are even small patches of woods. Raeder is like discovering a whole new world, constantly introducing these new things that she has never seen before.
Recorded in the thinking module. When she saw a bird flying from the forest, she was so surprised that she screamed.
"Look it's a bird!"
The girl subconsciously looked to her side, but she did not see the person who wanted to share the surprise. Emptiness and loneliness came to her heart again, and she put down her hand in silence, pretending that nothing happened.
"She is so powerful, maybe she will survive as tenaciously as these beings, right? The reason why she didn't catch up is because she fell behind. She will come sooner or later."
Such an idea suddenly appeared in Raeder's mind, and was confirmed in an instant, turning it into a motivation. She now knew where she should go and what she should do, that is, stay in Green Forest City and wait for Xiao Wu.
Wait until she comes, then thank her, complain about her recklessness, ask her to make compensation for the things that have made her sad and sad, and finally make friends with her officially.
"She kidnapped me and made me scared all the way. She hasn't apologized to me yet~ I won't allow her to just disappear! I'm so good, as long as I think of a way, I will be able to do it as soon as possible after she comes.
Find her, so I must establish a foothold in Green Forest City! Oh, and avoid the sight of the consortium and my father to avoid being caught back! Alas~ It seems that this armor will not be able to be taken off for a while... Anyway
This thing was given to me by that guy, I don't like it at all, I will definitely give it back to her in the future!"
The girl kept looking for reasons to encourage herself in her heart, and her mood improved a lot. People are very strange. Even if the objective reality and difficulties do not change, just changing their mentality can gain the motivation to persevere. Some scholars once believed that
Human thoughts are just illusions created by constant chemical reactions and changing electrical signals. There is no so-called self-awareness at all. By the time of the cyber era, this theory has been completely overturned and falsified. Modern scholars have understood
The activity of thinking is something more microscopic and essential, so they can create an electronic brain that can accommodate personal consciousness. But whether the "hardware" controls consciousness, or whether the "hardware" only serves as a carrier of thinking, this question has not yet been resolved.
Clearly. Although they have created a smart enough artificial intelligence and can forcibly control Cybermen by controlling "hardware", they still cannot directly control "human consciousness" and can only use various means to deceive and induce them.
Or forced. Just like the brothers and sisters in Raeder's family who have lost their humanity, their consciousness is not modified, but the result of being "tamed" by various restrictive programs and modules over many years.
"Wow~~~"
"it's beautiful!"
"As expected of Green Forest City~"
“This scene is so beautiful, I am still shocked every time I come here!”
The hunters nearby let out bursts of exclamation, pulling the girl out of her deep thoughts. She looked in the direction where everyone was looking and saw a picture she had never seen before.
It was a huge green wall. The surface of the tall city wall was almost covered with some kind of dense vines. Only some shooting ports and observation ports were exposed. And these green walls did not have foundations, but were installed somewhere.
On a platform. Although the front of the platform is blocked by armor and the structure cannot be seen, it gives the impression that it can be moved.
"The city walls of Green Forest City are designed for mobile, which is convenient for the city to expand. The main structure is a composite armor and a high -strength framework. There is no traditional concrete structure. Therefore, the total quality is very low. It can be installed slowly on the crawler platform.
The defense capacity of its own is low. The Lv Forest City Defense Force has been committed to expanding the defense circle and replacing the city wall with space. It is worth mentioning that Green Forest City has installed the cultivation of irrigation systems in the city wall, creating a "green high wall '.
A unique landscape, which demonstrates the city’s strong strength and..."
“What a great place…”
Raeder closed the city information interface and sighed as she looked at the green future.
