Under the predatory development of Zheng Tian's team, the rodent beasts on Shuya Mountain felt the pain.
…
Throughout the day, the team's most dangerous situation was their sudden encounter with five ruin beasts.
Four first-level and one second-level.
Originally, Ren Zhong remembered that there were only four first-level rats there.
He avoided it last time, but this time after his intelligence guidance, Zheng Tian decided to attack.
It's not difficult.
Four people with fighting ability can handle it by fighting each other.
But I never thought that as soon as I opened the monster, another second-level rat would rush out of the hole.
The car sensor was actually deceived.
It was actually a series of rat nests with holes in them. Inside, there lurked the second-level ruin beast Shadow Rat. It was only one foot long, completely black and hairless, with extremely strong hiding ability and extremely fast movements. It was different from ordinary rats.
A terrifying life that mainly gnaws with its teeth and attacks with its claws.
This was another unexpected surprise, but not surprising.
The relationship between humans and beasts is to hunt each other.
This kind of unexpected situation happens anytime and anywhere.
There are thousands of scavengers in the town, and on average, several to dozens of them die every day.
After the accident, Zheng Tian made a quick decision and fired two shots to lure away the two first-level rats.
Ou Youning urgently laid a powerful explosive array trap.
Wen Lei originally planned to meet the shadow rat and drag it down, but he was easily thrown away and was immediately entangled by another first-level rat. There was nothing he could do.
Bai Feng wanted to catch the monster, but was a little slow.
Both fortunately and unfortunately, Shadow Rat went straight to the task.
Something unexpected happened.
Ren Zhong, who was holding the heavy sword with both hands, was not quickly defeated by the Shadow Rat's attack.
It picked the wrong opponent.
Ren Zhong stayed where he was, twisting and spinning rapidly.
The broad war blade was carried spinning and flying up and down.
The total weight of the first-grade carbide sword is 76 kilograms. If it is used like a Western sword, a lot of power will be wasted on restraining inertia.
Ren Zhong's rotating style of play uses centrifugal force to pull inertial force, making use of the rigidity of the armor material and converting the exoskeleton power into the kinetic energy of the war blade to the maximum extent.
He looked like a naughty boy spinning in circles with a fairy wand.
Of course, his body speed is not as fast as the Shadow Rat, but the tip of his swinging blade can barely keep up with the Shadow Rat.
Just hear the tinkling sound.
The black shadows around Ren Zhong, who was dancing into a ball of snow, flickered suddenly, and little sparks kept shooting out.
No one knows how he does it, but it turns out that the tip of his war blade can always meet the attacking shadow rats accurately and quickly.
He successfully held off this powerful enemy.
Including Zheng Tian, who was being chased by two rats, everyone's eyelids jumped wildly and they were amazed.
Only Ren Zhong understands best in his own heart.
That he was able to do this was not due to luck or extraordinary performance.
What he relied on was that at this time, he had exceeded the limit of a second-level professional, with a brain reaction index as high as 51.2.
His brain is always ahead of his body, so he can always catch the Shadow Mouse's movements in time.
At the same time, the body control he gained from high-intensity sparring with AI robots in the intermediate area of the training ground was also of great help.
He imitated the two-handed swordsmanship of Master Yu Chenghui that he had seen in his memory to a 30-50% charm.
Seeing that the others were stunned, Ren Zhong shouted angrily: "Don't be stunned! Hurry up! I can't hold on for long! Ou Youning! You don't need to pile up explosives, just prepare a large fragmentation mine!"
His brain is adequate, but his body is still far behind. Ren Zhong's physical condition is declining at an extremely fast rate.
One minute later.
Bai Feng tore his opponent into pieces.
Wen Lei used his heavy shield to flatten the rat beast that was clinging to him.
Zheng Tian even succeeded in counterattacking with one enemy and two enemies.
As for the heavy responsibility, he carried it until Ou Youning set up the trap, then moved step by step to lure the Shadow Rat over.
Throw it down!
At the same time as he fell, the tip of his sword hit the fragmentation mine's compression fuse.
The rampant Shadow Rat, who was rising into the air and trying to deliver a fatal blow to him who had fallen down for no apparent reason, was immediately hit with holes all over by the explosive fragments.
This level passed without any danger.
…
At the end of the whole day, everyone counted the harvest and eliminated a total of 31 first-level rodent beasts and two second-level rat beasts.
A total of 144 contribution points were earned.
An unprecedented bumper harvest.
In Zheng Tian's words, looking at all the semi-professional scavenger teams in Spark Town, this is also the largest single-day hunting result in the past two years.
Zheng Tian: "We created a historical record."
In addition, Bai Feng was slightly injured.
Ren Zhong and Wen Lei's equipment was also partially damaged.
The consumption cost of treatment, equipment repair, ammunition, and energy batteries is 22 points, and the total net income of the team reaches 122 points.
Whether dealing with the crystal-armored giant rat or the shadow rat, Ren Zhong played a vital role.
After some discussion, everyone decided that Ren Zhong would get 60 points alone.
The rest divide the remaining 62 points and each deposit 20% of the proceeds into public funds.
…
On the way back, Ren Zhong asked Wen Lei about paying back the money.
Wen Lei said there was no rush.
He currently has no need to use money and does not need to pay bills.
Tax is deducted for private transfers, so it’s not cost-effective, so I’ll put it aside for now.
After a brief conversation, Ren Zhong stopped talking and pretended to close his eyes and rest.
Today is the first time he has reintegrated into the world as a soldier since he joined the army.
He was doing well, but he was also physically exhausted.
Ren Zhong finally understood why other people in Zheng Tian's team seldom went to the training ground.
After becoming a professional scavenger, walking in the wild every day and experiencing battle after battle is the most intense training.
Although I didn't go back for actual testing, Ren Zhong also knew that his parameters must have increased again.
Ren Zhong looked at the retreating scenery outside the car window, and then looked at the blue sun in the distance that had drifted towards the western mountains.
He sighed in his heart.
A similar scene to a long time ago, but a completely different state of mind.
The thunderous vehicles were running at lightning speed, leaving the low-level scavengers behind, either in twos, threes, or alone, to eat ashes.
Only a few people are busy riding motorcycles, driving open-top off-road vehicles and other means of transportation.
But the speed of these ordinary means of transportation is very different from that of a racing car.
These scavengers are also walking towards the small town, just like farmers in ancient times, working at sunrise and resting at sundown.
The only difference is that the scavengers always have half a foot on the threshold of hell.
Most of the scavengers were hunched over, either with empty hands, carrying them on their shoulders, or dragging waste animals of different sizes on the ground.
Regardless of whether they were carrying things or not, many people were injured, and some were even covered in blood, missing arms and legs, and walked unsteadily.
It is very difficult for these people with poor equipment and no team to live a better life in this world.
Over ninety percent of the desolate people would have to spend their entire lives to complete the journey in seven days.
Ren Zhong really wants to complain.
If this is the case, why should we have children and let them suffer the consequences?
But he recalled what he had seen and heard in the town, as well as the information recorded in the basic information database in the watch, and the policies currently being implemented by a Yuanxing Business Association.
He really didn't expect it.
Despite the extremely low material conditions of the desert people, their motivation to have children is extremely high.
The deserters in Spark Town are very open-minded, regardless of gender.
As for the people around him, Chen Hanyu doesn't know yet, but in the last resurrection, Zheng Tian definitely wanted to eat him.
Ren Zhong declined.
He is not a saint, but firstly he doesn't like Zheng Tian's appearance, secondly he is too preoccupied with things to do, thirdly he is wary, and fourthly he has not yet solved his survival needs.
As for everything else, as far as he knew, Ou Youning, this talkative and mean-mouthed guy, was a real playboy and had more than one crush on the opposite sex in the town.
The dull gourd Baifeng, who couldn't be beaten with three slaps, actually had many partners to live a harmonious life with.
Wen Lei is an anomaly, perhaps because he always has his childhood sweetheart in his heart.
In short, in Spark Town, boiling physiological needs have brought about an unreasonable fertility rate.
According to extremely brief historical records, in the tragic ancient times when human productivity was extremely low and there were wild beasts plundering everywhere, human beings really relied on this strong reproductive motive to reproduce to this day.
In modern times, the Yuanxing Business Association has implemented a policy of encouraging childbirth.
When adults raise offspring, both parents can receive contribution point rewards every time the child celebrates their birthday.
Children gain a total of 1 point when they turn one year old. Each additional year of age earns 1 more point.
This policy applies to everyone.
Moreover, children can rent watches when they are 5 years old and earn contribution points through sleep.
The daily food expenditure for a 5-year-old is well below 0.1, which is profitable.
Ren Zhong subconsciously felt that this policy was inconsistent and strange.
First, the living conditions of the desert people are reduced to the extreme, and then they are given money to encourage childbirth. However, after the children reach the age of 16, they are driven out to the wild to fend for themselves.
hehe.
He smiled subconsciously.
Ou Youning, who was sitting next to him, immediately asked, "Brother Ren, what's wrong with you?"
Ren Zhong: "Nothing, I just think life is fun."
Wen Lei, who was lying underneath as a cushion, asked angrily: "Brother Ren, are you still going to the training ground tonight?"
Ren Zhong shook his head, "I won't go, I have to rest today."
"Oh, Brother Ren, you should take a break and enjoy life, hehe."
Zheng Tian, who was in the front row, immediately struck up a conversation.
