Soren is really in a bad mood now. The reason for his bad mood comes from a battle provoked by non-human creatures on his way.

After knowing that zero took Leah to remt, he called the team to leave z7 base. If all goes well, Soren can visit this settlement the day after zero to daremt. If things go this way, zero will not think of the ruins of lampez University City, nor will he know Su and Ben. He and Leah will be detained by Soren and taken back to the headquarters of the dark Council.

But life has no if.

Soren was "late" because they met a group of corpses on the road.

It was no accident that the corpse migration they saw during the night camp on the outskirts of Yinshu city. The corpses of Yinshu city and other similar people who did not know where to migrate quietly gathered in the ruins of a city on their way to remt. Sauron drove day and night to catch up with zero. At night, the living corpses wandering along the road smelled the fresh flesh and blood of Sauron's team members, so the first encounter took place.

Of course, the number of corpses without even a hundred is not an opponent of Sauron's team at all. Soon after the battle began, Sauron didn't care and ordered the team to move on. He did not think that in the nearby ruins, a larger number of living corpses were attracted by the sound of gunfire. So in the second encounter, Soren faced hundreds of thousands of corpses.

But in that case, it would not delay Soren too long. But there are high-level living corpses such as butcher and Ripper in the incoming living corpse group, and there are many such elite monsters. You should know that no matter the butcher or the Ripper, there are not many such high-grade goods naturally in every living corpse group. There were more than 20 butchers and rippers in the group of corpses that night.

Different from the monsters like human tanks, the rippers are short, their appearance is the same as that of ordinary living corpses, but their bones have been highly mutated. The bones of any part of the Ripper's body can be deformed and combined into sharp bone blades that can easily tear the armored combat vehicle, and their flexibility and speed are beyond the reach of the butcher.

In certain circumstances, the ripper is far more dangerous than the butcher. Take the second encounter with the living corpse for example. The Ripper among the same kind launched a raid when he approached Sauron's team. Taking their companions as cannon fodder, they brought a lot of pressure to Sauron's side.

In the end, Soren went out in person to force the living corpses back temporarily. But soon, the soldiers sent a message that another group of corpses had assembled and headed for the road. Knowing that his troops were not enough to destroy more corpses, Soren reluctantly issued an order to avoid, and the team retreated into Yinshu city. Under the cover of urban buildings, Sauron's team and the corpses fought a three-day tug of war in silver tree city.

No one can do anything until the corpse is evacuated. While Soren was almost halved, he did not dare to rush overnight. They began to go out day and night, and during this time, Soren sent out tracking expert Kabu. Soren's intention was to let cabo find out the distribution of the living corpses on the way, so as not to go to war with the living corpses as last time.

But what I didn't expect was that Kabu found an unusual phenomenon when he went.

The tracking expert went to the ruins where they lived along the traces of the corpses, and found that an area of the ruins was guarded by high-level monsters such as butchers and rippers. Feeling strange, Kabu used a nearby high-rise building for long-distance reconnaissance. The scene seen with multiple electronic telescopes was directly projected on Sauron's tactical board through the network of the dark Council.

So Soren saw an unforgettable picture of his life.

Countless corpses are biting and devouring each other in a building. Stumps, internal organs, intestines and brains were sprayed all over the ground. That bloody picture is enough to make people who have no nerves can't eat for three days. Soren's nerves are not thin, but they are not thick enough to look at these pictures and turn a blind eye.

Soren reported the strange phenomenon of the living corpse to the headquarters, which was not his main task, so Soren did not go deep into investigating the abnormal activities of the living corpse. After this little episode, Sauron took the team on the road, and the returning tracking expert took a two-day break to appear again.

Sauron soon received a "never mention" instruction about the abnormal trend of the living corpse. Soren knew that if such a large number of living corpses were to become a disaster, the base or company within 3000 kilometers of the marginal zone would have to be destroyed. The Lords of the dark Council did not intend to remind nearby companies, and Soren would not worry about it. In his opinion, this is like a remote place. Even if all the people die, it's none of his business, even if his family has a small mineral base in this area.

So in front of theon, second in command of remt, Soren never mentioned that a biochemical storm was brewing thousands of kilometers behind remt.

Now Soren is more concerned about the trend of zero and Leah.

Looking at the photos on the tactical board, theon showed a cordial smile: "so you're looking for the two of them, so you're asking the right person."

This was the best news Soren had heard in the past week. A rare smile appeared on the young man's face.

The city where Ron's company is located is called Nu Reef City, which is a city towering by the sea. Because of geology, nu reef city cannot build an underground base like remt. Ron can only install various radiation purification devices in this city to reduce the impact of surface radiation on urban residents.

Fifty years after the catastrophe, even ordinary people's resistance to radiation has increased many times. Therefore, although they live on the surface, they can barely survive by relying on purification devices. Only the average life expectancy of surface residents will be about one-third shorter than that of base residents, and they will be infected with all kinds of strange diseases.

But in this turbulent era, it can be regarded as heaven to have a tile to cover the head, so the residents of Nu reef city don't complain much about it.

Zero sum Leah arrived in this city headed by Ron company at noon yesterday. Unlike remt, there is no strict access system. Ron company adopts a loose system. Except that the company's headquarters is guarded by soldiers, only the sheriff plays the role of maintaining order in the city.

Of course, you don't have to expect a few sheriffs to do anything. Generally speaking, these Han'an officials are just walking through the motions. Therefore, nujiao city can be said to be a free city or a chaotic city.

Zero left Leah in the hotel officially opened by Ron company. The charge here is about 30% higher than that of an ordinary hotel, but no one dares to make trouble in the hotel. Leah is always safer here than in a mixed private hotel. Zero will register in the trade union hall of nujiao city. Only temporary registration is conducted in the trade union hall of each city. Mercenaries or hunters can get information and tasks from the trade union.

After completing the registration procedures, zero applied to meet with the president of the trade union, hoping to take this opportunity to approach the senior management of Ron company to get the information of the company or organization that may cure Leah. But there is still no news about this appointment until today. Zero has to put it aside for the time being, and information has another channel in addition to official sources.

The place where that channel is located is undoubtedly a tavern. So at 9 p.m., zero appeared in front of the only pub in Nu reef city.
