Chapter 964 Disappointment
The bonfire destroyed by the mutant beast was now beyond recognition. The unburned dry firewood was broken everywhere, and there was still dark charcoal ash all around. The mutated animal meat left by Ji Xiaoyan and the others was completely gone at this moment. It didn’t take much to think about it. It must have been caused by the group of mutated animals just now. The beasts ate it.
Standing by the bonfire, Yu Qisi looked at the ground, and then at the entrance of the cave that was emitting a faint light. After a while, he looked at Lu Wu and asked: "The sound of the light wave cannon outside means that If someone is coming, should we go out and take a look? "If Luoye Fenfei and the others sent people to look for them, then they would be saved. However, there is another possibility that if the people outside are not Luoye Fenfei's people, what to do! You know, generally in the wilderness, if a mutant beast hunter encounters any trouble, he or she will not be saved or helped unless he meets other people.
Yu Qisi understands this very well. , so I am very confused at the moment! The wilderness is such a dangerous place. Generally, few who come to the wilderness to hunt animals are soft-hearted. If what they see when they go out now is actually a group of strangers, then with better luck, they can follow them for a while, and then when they encounter valuable mutant beasts, they will be used as bait and forcibly sent out to die. ; If they are not lucky and encounter mutant beast hunters who don't want to cause trouble, the worst result they can have is to kill the mutant beast immediately and feed it to them as food.
No matter what the outcome is, as long as they are not acquaintances or people with whom they have a good relationship, they will never be rescued. Therefore, thinking of this possibility, even if he knew that the light wave cannon outside the cave was carried by humans, Yu Qisi did not dare to let Ji Xiaoyan go out for adventure together, so he had to turn his questioning eyes to Lu Wu.
"The entrance of the cave is not big. Compared with other ordinary mutant beast caves, this cave entrance is actually very small." Lu Wu thought for a moment, and then said to Yu Qisi and Ji Xiaoyan: "The mutant beasts that came in just now are probably too big. Just open the entrance of the cave a little. According to ordinary people's understanding, such a place would not be regarded as a mutant beast's lair. Therefore, Relatively speaking, we still have a slight advantage. Moreover, those mutated beasts didn't find us here just now. They probably won't come looking for us again. So, we just need to look at the situation outside the cave entrance. Of course. , Qi Si, you'd better look for any rocks nearby, and we can make the hole a little smaller by the way." 'Hmm! 'Yu Qisi nodded, and he and Ji Xiaoyan immediately searched for stones in the dark, while Lu Wu bent down and carefully explored the entrance of the cave to check the situation outside.
Just as Lu Wu and the others guessed, traces of humans appeared outside the cave, and there seemed to be dozens of mutant beast hunters carrying weapons such as light wave cannons. At this moment, they were concentrating their firepower and violently attacking the large mutated beast.
"Lu Wu, how are you? Are the people outside Master Jiang Xia and the others?" Yu Qisi nervously and Ji Xiaoyan put the found stone next to Lu Wu, and then asked, " We've been out for so many days, Master Jiang Xia's people should have come out to look for us, right? Are those people outside just looking for us?"
" No!" Lu Wu looked a little confused. Dignified, shook his head, While stacking the stones at the entrance of the cave, he whispered to Yu Qisi: "Those outside should be some private hunting teams. They look like they are used to doing this. I don't know where they bought a large hunting team." "Light wave cannon, specially designed to poach mutant beasts"
"Lu Wu, how did you tell? What if they came to us? What if they were disguised?" He looked at Lu Wu unwillingly and asked. Now she finally understood why everyone was trying so hard to make money, upgrade their resident level, and find another place to live. Places such as the wilderness and the outskirts of the city are really dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be killed. She was unlucky this time. She finally found a relatively safe place to live. Who knows, she met a The crazy man actually led all the mutated beasts into the city, which directly caused the entire city to fall.
Now I don’t know what the situation is like in the South Aosu District
When Lu Wu heard Ji Xiaoyan’s question, he didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he kept using stones to block the entrance of the cave until it was only the size of a fist. After that, I observed the situation outside through the small gap. , while whispering to Ji Xiaoyan: "Miss Xiaoyan, if they go through formal procedures and apply for approval from the federal government and come out to hunt mutant beasts, they basically won't have so many people! Large mutant beasts Hunter groups will all carry flags and other symbolic things to warn the surroundings. Others, don't grab things. But look at the people outside. There are people with weapons on guard all around. They are not wary of other mutant beasts, but other mutant beast hunters. As long as they are discovered, they will not care about you! No matter what the intention is, they will kill you directly. These are the most obvious mutations. The performance of the black group of beast hunters. If it is a regular team, the members responsible for vigilance are all equipped with hover vehicles and stand sentinel dozens of meters away from the team's hunting place."
"The black group. and What's the difference between ordinary hunting groups?" Ji Xiaoyan asked again, somewhat unclearly. She suddenly realized that if she hadn't escaped into the wilderness with Yu Qisi and the others this time, she would never have known about these things, right? Speaking of which, she really doesn’t know much about this world!
“The black group, to put it bluntly, is a group that directly goes out of the country to hunt mutant beasts without the approval of the federal government, and then returns to make profits. As for regular hunting groups, if they want to apply to hunt, First of all, you have to waste a lot of time to apply to the federal government. You also need to pay taxes later. After hunting the prey, you still need to pay a part of the money to the federal government. It is called In fact, many large teams do not want to abide by this rule when it comes to contributing to border defense. After all, if they leave the country secretly, they can handle and sell any prey they get, and get all the funds without having to spend money to support them. The federal government." Lu Wu frowned, watching the mutant beast hunters outside the cave entrance bombarding the huge mutant beast with cannons, and felt a little complicated. The mutated beasts that just ran out of the cave were not known to be discovered. If those people outside see it, they might come here to explore and see if they can find some cubs in the cave and take them back to the city to sell! By then, they may be discovered. .
He didn't think that if the three of them were discovered by someone outside, they could be safely escorted to the city. Either they were used as bait for mutant beasts; or they were killed directly and robbed of all their belongings
Thinking of this, Lu Wu felt a little heavy for a moment.
"Miss Xiaoyan, while the battle outside is not over yet, let's make more plans!" Lu Wu thought about it for a while, and then said in a deep voice to Ji Xiaoyan and Yu Qisi: " Those people outside seemed to be very well prepared. They basically didn't have any pressure to kill the mutant beast, which meant that they only needed a little time. It’s just a matter of time. But, when the mutant beasts heard the sound of the light wave cannon, they all left here and returned to their lair. I don’t know if those people outside saw what happened when they left.”
"What do you mean?" Ji Xiaoyan was a little confused about what Lu Wu meant, so she looked at him and asked. I started to guess, could it be that Green Five wanted them to strike first? Go out and fight those people? Joining forces with that large mutated beast, just like in the game, attracts monsters to destroy players? Or maybe, crawling out secretly to see if you can escape?
Lu Wu had no idea what Ji Xiaoyan was thinking. After hearing her words, he immediately continued: "I saw the situation in this cave when I came in. This cave is very It’s so deep, I don’t know if it’s natural or if it’s acquired. It was dug by strange beasts. But one thing is certain, besides this hole, there are other vents in the hole. So, in order to avoid being caught by those outside, we might as well hurry up and go outside. Let’s continue exploring here.”
"Continue going inside?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at the deep, dark hole with some worry, feeling a little scared.
To be honest, she went in a little deeper just now because she was scared by the mutant beasts. And speaking of it, they didn't go too far, so with the cave entrance as a reference, she thought it was okay and wasn't too scared. However, she was really scared if she wanted to continue walking inside. No one knows what is in the depths of this cave.
Caves are usually accompanied by fear and various dangers. Mountain ants, venomous snakes, scorpions, beasts, etc., all of them suddenly appeared from the dark place! She didn't think it would be unrealistic for them to be like in the novel, walking around, discovering some kind of peerless treasure, a paradise or the like in a cave, and then returning home in a great way.
"Lu Wu, have you ever thought about what will happen if we continue to go inside?" Yu Qisi's face darkened, he looked at Lu Wu and asked, "We have a little fire. But it’s impossible to hold on for long. If the situation inside is bad and we can’t see anything, have you ever thought about what will happen to us? Maybe we didn't encounter mutant beasts when we came in, just because we were lucky, then Are the mutated beasts still resting? "
"We have only two ways to go now! Qi Si!" Lu Wu's expression did not change. After listening to Yu Qi Si's words, he just said calmly: "First, wait here. If no one outside comes to check, we will be safe. But if we are unlucky, I don't need to tell you the consequences. Second, let's go in and explore, maybe we can find another person." An exit, of course, is equally risky.”
