Chapter 154: Driving, The Wall

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The battle near the trash pile only lasted for less than five seconds before seven of the twelve people in the three jeeps were killed by Zhou Chen.

Such a tragic scene caused the remaining natives to fall into great panic. They screamed ‘mutant’ and fled back to their settlement. However, one jeep that Zhou Chen had been paying attention to was not able to escape and was forcibly snatched.

Only the driver was still alive in the jeep. It was a dark-skinned, middle-aged man. When Zhou Chen charged in, he was turning the steering wheel frantically and trying to pull out the gun from his waist, but he was stopped by the faster Zhou Chen.

“Stop the jeep. I ask, you answer,” Zhou Chen succinctly indicated that this native should cooperate.

The native quickly chose to compromise.

“Where is this place?” Zhou Chen asked the key question.

“This is… No. 1348… Garbage Post…” the native replied with a trembling voice.

“Why did you suddenly attack us?” Zhou Chen did not care that this person’s words were unclear.

“Because… the… the… robot in the trash…” the native hesitated for a moment before replying.

“That robot is worth a lot of money?” Zhou Chen frowned.

The native nodded quickly.

Zhou Chen asked a few more questions before breaking his neck and sending him to the afterlife.

While Zhou Chen was interrogating this native, the young man in camouflage clothes who was hiding at the rear had already arrived. He listened for a while and even expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhou Chen for suddenly killing this native. He felt that Zhou Chen was too vicious.

However, Zhou Chen ignored him. He immediately began to clear all the corpses in the jeep and searched the corpses. He collected all the guns on the ground and moved the broken Lucy to the jeep.

“There might not be enough gas in this jeep to go to the place you mentioned. How about going to the city closest to the east first?” After everything was prepared, Li Guofu, who had taken the initiative to be the driver, started the jeep. He turned on the headlights and asked Zhou Chen.

“Sure.”

Zhou Chen had no objections to this. When he was interrogating the native earlier, the native had told him that the nearest large gathering area from here was in the east, only about a hundred kilometers away.

The two in the jeep did not communicate much. Li Guofu was focused on driving the jeep, while Zhou Chen held a rifle and studied it. Occasionally, he would shoot out the window.

Firearms were considered a novel item to Zhou Chen. This was the first time he had touched a real gun in his two lifetimes.

“There’s a monster chasing after us.”

Suddenly, Li Guofu glanced at the compass in front of the steering wheel and reminded Zhou Chen, who was still playing with the gun.

“Understood.” In fact, Zhou Chen had already discovered an ugly monster that looked like a rhinoceros chasing after the jeep with the Bloodthirst passive skill.

It ran very fast, and its skin looked very rough and thick in the Dark Vision. Its body was covered in a thick layer of disgusting cuticles.

Zhou Chen aimed the rifle at it and pulled the trigger.

The bullet hit the rhinoceros, but it only left a small hole in the thick cuticle on the surface of its body and did not hinder its speed.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen decisively gave up on using firearms to attack the rhino. Instead, he waited for it to get closer before punching out!

The invisible Eight Desolates True Energy instantly erupted, and it attacked the rhinoceros-like monster that was charging toward them like an invisible dragon. The rhinoceros’ thick head instantly caved in quarter of its original size under the invisible pressure, and its entire body collapsed.

‘This thing is quite tough, I almost couldn’t finish it. Looks like my training speed has to increase.’ Although he had killed this monster in one move, Zhou Chen could tell that it was about to test the upper limit of his attack. This sounded an alarm in him. If he could not quickly increase the level of his Eight Desolates Coiling Dragon Supreme Art, he might end up in a sorry state when he encountered stronger monsters in the future.

After dealing with this monster, the two of them continued on through the night. They encountered some monsters on the way, but their strength was not as strong as the previous one. They were dealt with by Zhou Chen with firearms or fists.

After a while, the two of them were not far from their destination. However, Li Guofu, who was driving, suddenly turned red. He was feeling a little dizzy and was in a bad state.

“I might have been affected by that apocalyptic pollution. You need to drive.”

Sensing that his condition was bad, Li Guofu immediately stopped the car and changed seats with Zhou Chen. He sat in the passenger seat and swallowed some kind of medicine. It took him half a minute to calm down.

“Tell me if you feel something is wrong. My medicine seems to be quite effective,” after seeing his condition improve, Li Guofu said to Zhou Chen.

“Alright,” Zhou Chen nodded, but he knew that he would not fall into that state because he had obtained the passive skill, Apocalyptic Resistance. This passive skill ensured that as long as he did not go to the so-called severe pollution area, he would be fine.

After this small interlude, a bright city nightscape appeared in front of them. Although the area did not seem to be very large, they could see the traces of their former glory.

After getting closer, they saw that the city was surrounded by a tall wall. There were a few gates, and each was guarded by a fully armed team. Zhou Chen was still a hundred meters away when he was chased out by the guards with their lights and gunshots.

“Are all the people in this world so xenophobic?” Zhou Chen felt that the situation was slightly troublesome. “Let’s find a place to climb in.”

He turned the jeep around and drove away. He then observed the wall.

“They have installed electrical netting.” Li Guofu was also using his binoculars to observe the situation.

“It’s okay, that won’t stop me.” Zhou Chen, who had Dark Vision, had long noticed this, but it was very easy for him to jump over this high wall without touching it.

“My condition is worsening again, I might not be able to climb over the wall. You can go in first.”

Ever since Li Guofu’s face turned red, he had to drink medicine every once in a while.. The effect of the medicine seemed to be reducing, making his condition worse.
