A somewhat dilapidated Hummer jeep drove out of a secret passage cleared by worker ant drones in the ruins area south of the ruined city, and made a large circle toward the west of the ruined city.
The driver was Drago, this half-human, half-mechanical mercenary who loved vehicles very much and had excellent driving skills. Although the road was bumpy and full of bumps, his driving was smooth and there was absolutely no danger of overturning.
.
Hank is sitting in the passenger seat. He is wearing a windbreaker common among scavengers, with some personally sewn pockets and patches. This dress was found in the world of "Fallout 4" and was found in "Command and
The yellow zone in the world of "Conquer" is also just right, without any sense of inconsistency.
Chun Yuyan was sitting alone in the back seat. He was wearing the same clothes as a scavenger. However, the shabby clothes did not affect his mood. He leaned on the backrest casually and looked at the surrounding scene lazily.
.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he came outside the ruined city and looked at the scenery outside.
Everywhere we passed was foggy, and the light yellow mist filled almost every corner of the air, making people feel extremely depressed. Because we had already left the city, there were not many buildings that we could see, even if there were
Most of them are pre-war villages or industrial areas, and most of them have been abandoned and destroyed.
Different from the situation where Tiberium crystals are scattered everywhere in the ruined city, there are basically no crystals in the area outside, and some are just dilapidated. Only then did Chunyu Yan understand why the ruined city is like this.
A place where birds don't poop - because the Tiberium crystal-rich meteorite that fell previously has polluted the entire city.
That's why the three villages on the other side of Xingfu Village were so isolated from the world, and that's why Lin Huo, who wanted to fight to the end, chose to build Hammer Town on the edge of the ruined city.
As the jeep continues to advance, we can occasionally see some small settlements. Most of these settlements are built on the basis of some relatively intact buildings in front of the station. The small ones have only two or three buildings, and the large ones have more than ten buildings.
And unlike the world of "Fallout", the settlements in this world are much neater, and you can clearly see the traces of large-scale mechanical processing. Whether it is the repair of damaged buildings, the smoothing of roads, or complete
The walls and barbed wire are all very neat.
In addition, there are some vehicles and even armored vehicles parked in many settlements. Occasionally, you can see some pickup trucks coming and going on the road, most of which are loaded with goods. Some heavily armed personnel are using vigilance in the vehicles.
His eyes glanced at Chun Yuyan's jeep.
After driving forward for more than 20 minutes, the jeep drove onto a wide road. Although the asphalt road was badly damaged and in disrepair for many years, and there were potholes in many places, in general, there were no obstacles on the road.
, unobstructed.
There were no building debris or trees in this area, and the view was good. Chun Yuyan saw a large piece of Tiberium crystal from a distance, and a flowering tree in the middle of the crystal that was constantly swallowing green Tiberium spores. A Tiberium mine
The collection truck was busy inside, with a pair of large pliers at the front constantly scooping up Tiberium crystals from the ground, and then placing them into the huge jar behind them.
Although this mine is completely different from the mine in the ruined city between a small single room and a football field, the presence of Tiberium mining trucks means that there are already large-scale forces around.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the jeep to drive past a sizable settlement. What was somewhat unique was that this settlement was made up of a large number of tents. These tents looked very sturdy, with a metal pillar in the middle and flower petals around them.
It also extends to six rooms.
While driving, Drago looked back at Chun Yuyan and explained: "This is a refugee camp airdropped by GDI to the yellow zone. They used transport planes to airdrop such tents and some daily necessities in an area, while the refugees wandering around
They often take these tents and materials as their own, and over time such a settlement will be formed.”
"This process can't be peaceful, right? Bleeding to death should be the main theme in the establishment of this kind of airdrop refugee camp." Chunyu Yan asked indifferently.
"But someone can survive, right?" Drago said meaningfully.
Chunyu Yan did not answer, but was silent for a short while and said: "How likely is it that we will attract these small settlements to join us?"
"Unless you establish a strong regional hegemony, don't let them follow you. Most of these small settlements are hardcore and die-hard. Killing them will not only cause trouble but also not bring much profit." Drago
said.
"Where is Torch City?"
"Torch City can't control it, and they don't want to." Drago snorted, "Generally, large urban strongholds like Torch City basically have their own industrial, agricultural and social systems. These small settlements are very difficult for them.
It’s said to be dispensable, or in other words, basically I don’t have time to pay attention to them.”
"So... where is the Brotherhood of Nod?" Hank, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked. Although he was taciturn, he had already begun to understand the situation in the world of "Command and Conquer" in many aspects, and he knew that Nod was also very familiar with it.
A natural thing.
This time, even Drago fell silent.
After about a minute, he said in a low and slow voice: "You asked a good question..." but he had no intention of continuing.
Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! There was a burst of gunfire from the direction of the large settlement, and a jeep was seen driving towards this side and stopped 3,400 meters away. The people in the car were holding
The assault rifle fired in the air, but it was obviously aimed this way.
"Ignore them, they are here to ask if we are joining the team. After all, we still have a car. But it doesn't matter, they are just doing it as a matter of routine." Drago said.
Chun Yuyan nodded, put the MK-19 automatic grenade launcher he had just taken back into his personal space, lit a cigarette for himself, and then threw the pack of cigarettes to Hank.
This magic-like operation of making something out of nothing made Drago take a few more glances in the rearview mirror, but he was too sensible to ask any more questions. He just said, "We are almost within the limits of Torch City.
There should be half an hour left."
"This place is different from the wasteland environment I imagined." Chunyu Yan said.
While he was talking, it turned out that the jeep that had just driven out of the large settlement had no intention of stopping when it saw that it was here, so it turned around and went back. However, this episode also showed one thing. These settlements are not short of bullets.
Secondly, there is no shortage of fuel, which is fundamentally different from the world of "Fallout". That's why he said this.
"The yellow zone has never been a wasteland. It is just a place where opportunities and killings coexist. As for the description of wasteland, it belongs to the red zone, that hell-like place." Drago answered.
There began to be more things around, and the buildings began to become denser. Drago drove around a town that was much larger than the previous Hammer Town, and seemed to be very familiar with this area.
Chunyu Yan also began to narrow his eyes. He understood that the scope of Torch City had arrived!
