Drip, drop, drop.
"The radiation pollution of the water here is not that serious, within the range that can be purified." The silver-black robot Gnawa squatted next to a stream flowing through the black earth and completed the inspection.
The weeds here are dense and long, and the green covers almost as far as the eye can see, but they are not exaggerated compared to areas with more radiation pollution - in those places, the grass is often close to half a person's height, and it is not uncommon to see wild green onions close to three meters.
Although similar environments are not a key criterion for judging pollution, they can help relic hunters make preliminary judgments at a longer distance and reduce the difficulty of screening.
"Finally ......" After listening to Gnava's words, Long Yuehong breathed a long sigh of relief.
One of the most serious and realistic issues of venturing in the wasteland of the North Shore is access to water resources.
Here, many water sources are seriously polluted, exceeding the ability range of the Pure Crystal Essence, forcibly drinking it, poisoning may not be possible, but subsequent diseases and even aberrations are all high probability.
Because of this, relic hunters traveling to and from the wasteland on the north shore not only carry weapons and food, but also prepare pure crystal elements to grasp the distribution of lightly polluted water sources.
The "old investigation team" is wanted, and many places cannot be visited, so they can only rely on Zeng Duo's experience, Jiang Baimian's knowledge, and Gnawa's pollution testing to find new water sources.
When there was not much drinking water left, they finally gained something after failing again and again.
In the midst of emotion, Long Yuehong, Shang Jianyao and others put the stream water into the corresponding container and relied on the pure crystal element to deal with it.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Baimian looked around and said:
"Judging from the current situation, there are about two companies of the 'First City' regular army guarding Chuchun Town, and they usually take turns patrolling the surrounding area in platoons, pretending to be drills to prevent relic hunters or wilderness wanderers from approaching Chuchun Town......
"It is preliminarily speculated that one company stayed behind and the other patrol ......."
The "Old Tune Team" entered the ruin hunters in the North Anheford area during this period through disguise and "making friends", and learned the time, place and specific details of their encounter with the regular army of the "First City".
With this information, it is much easier to analyze the enemy's situation.
For example, it is judged that there are only two companies in the garrison because those relic hunters meet only so many people back and forth, and they often meet familiar faces after a few times.
"They have at least two tanks, two armored vehicles, six drones, heavy machine guns, individual rockets, grenade guns, and many of them, as for the awakened people and genetically modified people, they can't be seen on the surface, and there is no way to guess ......" Jiang Baimian briefly introduced the situation, and finally said, "With this level of understanding alone, I don't think it's a good idea to act now, what we want to rescue is a town, once it falls, it is surrounded, and there is no corresponding plan, and the whole army is wiped out is not a joke."
Her words silenced both Han Wanghuo and Zeng Duo.
This is not because they think there is something wrong with Xue Shiyue, nicknamed "Dabai", but on the contrary, it is so right that they are a little frustrated.
Gnava had already analyzed the results and asked tentatively:
"Lao Han, what was your previous action plan? Speaking out and referring to it may bring inspiration."
Jiang Baimian and Long Yuehong almost raised their hands to cover their faces, they forgot to stop this robot with worrying emotional intelligence.
Han Wanghuo's lips moved a few times, and Yin said a little embarrassedly:
"I haven't had time to formulate an action plan yet."
In his expectation, wouldn't he just touch the vicinity of Chuchun Town, take advantage of the night, make a wave of raids, and then cooperate inside and outside, get out of the encirclement, and go to the "land of hope" chosen by Zeng Duo?
If you can't succeed, you won't live long anyway, just use your life to cover the retreat of your teammates.
As a former sheriff of Hongshiji and the captain of the town guard, Han Wanghuo was not unaware that this plan was full of loopholes, but with the resources he had at his disposal and his own strength, he could only do this.
In order to prevent Gnava from further inquiries, Long Yuehong asked Zeng Duo tentatively:
"Is there a tunnel in Chuchun Town?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Shang Jianyao's laughter, and his heart suddenly chuckled, feeling that he had probably ignored something and was about to be ridiculed.
Jiang Baimian said with a normal expression:
"In the early days, this was a good idea, but the 'Initial City' has been controlling Chuchun Town for several months, and with their resources and capabilities, they should not be confused about this situation.
When Long Yuehong said to herself, "Yes", Zeng Duo answered his previous question:
"There is no authenticity.
"For us, the town is the last resort, and it is even more dangerous to break away from it, and there is no need to dig tunnels."
In the wasteland on the north bank, there are many "heartless people" and aberrant creatures, and it is not so safe to open the exit of the tunnel.
"Is there a river around the town? Is there a mountain nearby?" Bai Chen joined the discussion.
"What do you want to do?" Shang Jianyao looked "fearful".
Bai Chen did not hide his thoughts:
"Man-made natural disasters create opportunities."
"There are only small rivers and streams around the town, and it is on the edge of the hills, with no mountains." Zeng Duo's answer declared Bai Chen's proposal bankrupt before it entered the refinement stage.
Jiang Baimian nodded slightly:
"Man-made natural disasters are difficult to control, and there is no other way, try not to try."
Speaking of this, she sighed:
"The most important issue now is not how to rescue Chuchun Town, this is something that needs to be considered later, and we can only formulate an effective plan if we figure out the situation of the regular army in the 'Chuchu City' there.
"What I am most worried about is that this matter is presided over by an awakened person at the level of the 'Mind Corridor' or a corresponding level of aberration, and then the level of trouble will skyrocket.
"Moreover, those two companies may still have a few military exoskeleton devices, or bionic intelligent armor."
With the equipment owned by the "Old Tune Team" and the strength of the early spring garrison, they dare not say that they are very sure, at least in the case of a night raid, there is no hope.
But the problem is that the other party may not be full of strength when it comes to the surface.
Han Wanghuo and Zeng Duo, who have been popularized by the "Old Tune Group" about what a "spiritual corridor" is, have become quite solemn expressions.
If the experiment of the "First City" in Chuchun Town was not so important, Jiang Baimian's worries would not have arisen, but if the experiment involved many people, it was almost a high probability that a strong person would preside over it.
"How do you figure out these situations? I can't contact the people in the town at all." Zeng Duo did not hide his worries.
As soon as she finished speaking, Shang Jianyao sighed:
"It's all because those relic hunters are timid."
"Huh?" It is not only Long Yuehong who can't understand, but also Han Wanghuo, Zeng Duo and others.
Jiang Baimian smiled and helped explain:
"What he meant was that those relic hunters retreated as soon as they encountered the regular army of the 'First City' and had no idea of going deeper.
"In that case, there will be no conflict, and no conflict means that the regular army of the 'First City' will not be able to show its true strength.
"Well, if the awakened person at the 'Mind Corridor' level exists, he will definitely stay in Chuchun Town, monitor the surrounding area of a few hundred meters, and will not go out to patrol......"
If I were a relic hunter, I wouldn't have conflicts with people from big forces without a stake...... Besides, those regular troops are in platoons, with thirty or forty people acting together, and their weapons and equipment are very sophisticated, how dare ordinary relic hunter teams offend them? They are only worried about being forcibly accused of being robbers and plundering property...... Long Yuehong muttered in her heart.
"Let's try to fight a patrol?" Han Wanghuo put forward his own suggestion.
Jiang Baimian pondered slightly and laughed:
"That's the way to go, but there's a better way.
"If you don't come forward in person, you won't come forward in person, so as not to startle the snake."
Without waiting for Han Wanghuo to ask again, she looked at Zeng Duo:
"In the North Anheford area and the surrounding areas, what are the powerful bandit groups? Where do they often haunt?"
"Do you want to drive the bandits to attack those regular troops?" Han Wanghuo asked with understanding, "But how could they do such a thing......"
Han Wanghuo's voice gradually lowered, as if he remembered something, and the same was true of Long Yuehong's similar muttering in his heart.
"They are easy to get along with and very persuasive." Shang Jianyao showed a kind smile.
Jiang Baimian also laughed:
"Sometimes I can't help them."
For some reason, Zeng Duo silently mourned for those bandits at this moment.
She quickly came back to her senses and tried her best to find possible targets from her memory.
This made her feel like she was picking an "unlucky ghost".
