Hop!

The left foot, which was supported by the exoskeleton, stepped on a dark red brick, making a muffled sound of metal hitting.

Chen Xu stopped, looked into the distance for a while, and turned around to Xia Jinse, who was staggering, "It's a few kilometers away, so let's take a rest here first."

As he said that, he moved a piece of cement beam out of the rubble pile and let the flat side face upwards. He sat at one end, took out the kettle, poured it into the lid, and drank a few sips of water. Then he placed the kettle in the middle of the cement beam.

The backpack that is redeemed for points is multifunctional and comes with many gadgets, including a kettle. There is only one, which can only be shared by two people.

Xia Jinse's breathing was a little rapid, sweat kept coming out of her forehead, and she didn't care about dust. She sat on the other end of the cement beam, panted, leaned over her upper body, and took the kettle over.

She raised her head and let the water bottle be poured into her mouth with a few official documents.

Although Chen Xu was sitting, his eyes were constantly observing the surroundings. He specially chose a place with a wider field of vision to rest.

The two walked for almost three hours, and about ten kilometers.

The main reason is that he has too much rest. Xia Jinse obviously does not exercise regularly and has poor physical strength. After walking for more than half an hour, he is so tired that he can't walk and has to stop and rest.

In addition, there is still no danger.

Along the way, he encountered a trace of a monster. When he raised his gun and wanted to shoot, it quickly escaped through the terrain. With Xia Jinse next to him, he did not dare to chase him.

He was worried that the monster would come with a group of monsters, so he couldn't help but speed up, while he was worried.

After walking for nearly half an hour, they didn't see a large group of monsters catching up, so they felt relieved.

After that time, he became more vigilant and tried to choose a broader view of the route he took. The monster was not the green-skinned orangutan I had seen before, but another breed, with a small size and a strange speed, and should be good at sneak attacks.

"We've walked almost ten kilometers."

After Xia Jinse drank the water, she put the kettle back to its original position and suddenly spoke.

Chen Xu was a little surprised. She hadn't spoken since she set off. He thought she was going to have a cold war for a while.

"Did you notice that we have never even encountered a living plant along the way."

Xia Jinse looked a little worried, "I noticed that the soil here has been desertified. I am worried that this city is like this."

Chen Xu felt a little nervous. He also noticed the problem of plants. He thought it was just a problem of dream setting. After listening to her, he realized the seriousness.

He stood up, walked to a naked/exposed concrete floor, swung his robotic arm, and smashed it hard on the ground. After a few punches, a pit was smashed into the concrete floor.

After pulling open the stones on it, he grabbed a handful of sand and his face became a little solemn.

If the land of the entire city is desertified, it means that it has become a real dead city and is not suitable for survival.

In fact, this has already given signs. Along the way, they have never encountered any other living creatures except a monster.

Xia Jinse also walked over, saw the situation under the ground, and asked him, "How much food do you have on you?"

Chen Xu replied without thinking, "Under normal circumstances, it's enough for us to eat for ten days. Save a little and can last for two weeks."

Xia Jinse sighed and said, "I hope I can get some food supplies in that survival base."

Otherwise, they will be in trouble.

Chen Xu quickly cheered up again and comforted her, "Don't worry, since there are transport vehicles passing by here and monsters surviving here, the situation must not be that bad."

"Hope." Xia Jinse murmured.

Chen Xu looked at her and saw that there was worry on her face but she could not see any fear. He couldn't help but say, "You don't seem to be afraid?"

"Is it useful to be afraid?" she asked back.

Chen Xu shook his head and said, "The truth is this, but few people can do it. Fear is a normal psychological reaction, not something you can control just by wanting to control. At least, most ordinary people cannot do it."

Xia Jinse suddenly smiled, and her delicate face softened, "Are you trying to praise yourself in different ways?"

The implication is that Chen Xu himself did not show any fear.

Chen Xu smiled, feeling quite satisfied with the change in her attitude. The tone and content of her speech no longer had the domineering smell.

She was finally able to get her position right, which was a good start.

…………

The two of them rested for nearly half an hour and set off again. The desertification of the land gave them a sense of urgency and wanted to rush to the settlement to see what was going on there.

On that navigator, the name of the settlement was number G5232. It is a low mountain bag. This is already another area, and Chen Xu is not familiar with it. He doesn't know what the corresponding reality is.

Forty minutes later, they could see a wall and knew that the settlement was about to arrive, and they were filled with energy.

However, when they approached a distance and saw the situation of the gate clearly, their hearts sank and stopped at the same time.

The gate to the settlement is open, and at the entrance, there are several smaller green-skinned orangutans playing.

"What should I do?" Xia Jinse asked.

Chen Xu said in a deep voice, "It seems that this settlement has fallen, and most of the people inside have... just don't know how many monsters there are."

"There are five small ones at the door. The best situation is that there are two large ones. The bad situation is that there are one group."

Chen Xu agreed with her speculation that this green-skinned orangutan may live in groups in the family or the entire ethnic group. It depends on their luck.

Xia Jinse looked at him and waited for him to make an idea.

Chen Xu held the gun in his hand tightly, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Let's kill in, you must follow me closely later."

Xia Jinse gritted her teeth and said, "Give me a gun."

Chen Xu asked, "Have you fired a gun?"

"No, teach me." She looked at him and said seriously, "I don't want to watch myself eaten by monsters."

"I refuse."

Chen Xu grabbed the rifle with the robot arm on his left, held the pistol in his right hand, slowly stood up, and said, "I won't let you die in front of me. Follow me."
