attack city

After explaining the entire plan, Xiang Yang began to broadcast throughout the city.

"There is no replenishable water resources on the following section. We will rest here for three days and make the final replenishment of fresh water and food preparations. Once we set off again, the entire city will begin to implement water consumption control."

The water consumption control status is not a very strict water limit, but every time a relatively large amount of water consumption is used, it must be submitted for approval.

That is to say, it is not as strict as medium water consumption and minimum water consumption, but it cannot be used casually.

Because in the next plan, where they are going, there will be no way to replenish fresh water along the way.

The main continent is different from the novice continent. There are far fewer safe water supply points than expected, especially in this desert terrain.

When traveling through the wilderness, it is common for a city to enter a state of water stress.

There is no problem with food. Without meat, if you store enough staple food, you can still last for a long time. This is why rice and wheat are so important.

Hunting is sometimes unstable, because not all areas have a large number of wild creatures that can be hunted. Once breeding cannot keep up, there will immediately be a gap in the meat supply.

When they were near the Crocodile Valley Trading Ground, they also carried out a lot of hunting activities. They had stored more than a thousand kilograms of meat, but it was still not enough.

Therefore, while resting here, the warriors should also take the opportunity to start hunting.

Although the biomes here are much rarer than those at the trading ground, you can still find some if you look more.

After the notification was over, Xiang Yang put City Fury and City Cannon into preparation mode, and then began water replenishment operations.

The water-absorbing device had just fallen into the river, and the waves were rolling in the water. A giant fish energy monster bit the water-absorbing device and swam hard into the depths of the river.

Boom, the city cannon fired, and the armor-piercing shells directly hit the water, bombarding the monster's back. The energy beast gave up, and the water-absorbing device finally bounced back.

[Warning: The external water absorbing device has been damaged. Do you want to repair it immediately? 】

Shenlong City immediately gave a warning message.

Xiang Yang showed no expression and directly confirmed the repair operation, because this kind of thing is too common in the wild. After all, this is not a novice continent.

The entire repair was very fast, completed within half an hour, and then continued with water absorption and purification, this time without any interruption.

Three days passed quickly. At around three o'clock in the morning before leaving, Xiang Yang once again carried out a fresh water replenishment operation, and then set off in the direction of the river and continued into the desert.

At eight o'clock in the evening on the fourth day, when Shenlong City stopped to rest again, flames appeared in the northern mountains.

"Maybe someone lit the fire, or maybe it was a forest fire?" Bai Qianxue said.

"The probability of someone starting a fire is higher." Xiang Yang picked up the telescope and looked at it for a while again. "Continue to observe at night to see if the flames over there have spread."

The reason why someone is more likely to light a fire is because there are no herds of animals running away in the distance.

Obviously, the location of the fire was specially chosen.

This side is still far away from that side, dozens of kilometers away. The reason why we can see it here is because the field of vision is wide, and the fire is easier to spot at night.

Of course, with such a long distance, it's possible that the herd over there fled in other directions and didn't come here. It's unlikely, but it's still possible.

If it spreads, it's a forest fire. If it doesn't spread, it's basically started by someone.

Therefore, Xiang Yang makes people pay attention at night.

At dawn the next day, Gao Hongzhan came to report that the flames had not spread, and were still burning at five o'clock in the morning, and were extinguished immediately after five o'clock. It was obviously not a natural fire.

Xiang Yang decided to go there and have a look.

Being able to light a fire in the wild mountains without causing a riot among the herds shows that the person who lit the fire is an experienced person. Some wild people who have lost the protection of the city will use various methods to attract the attention of the city passing by.

Lighting a beacon is one of the ways.

But the difficulty is very high. Although the mountains are not big and there are not many trees there, there are usually many giant beasts in such places.

Once a fire breaks out in the mountains, the creatures on the nearby wasteland will also cause a beast tide.

Shenlong City changed its direction a little and headed towards the mountains.

An hour and a half later, they found four people in total, two men, one woman, and a teenage boy. They were once residents of a destroyed county-level city.

The two men are both soldiers, named Wu Zhongjun and Ruan Shijie.

Ruan Shijie is just an ordinary low-level soldier, only in his twenties, and that woman is his wife, a very young wasteland biologist.

Wu Zhongjun is a warrior commander in his thirties and the father of a little boy. His wife died on the way to escape.

Their city encountered a tide of energy giant beasts and was destroyed. The reason why they failed to escape was because the beast tide came from the copy continent.

Generally speaking, if a city is not going to a certain dungeon continent, it will not go near the outskirts of the dungeon continent.

Because radar cannot penetrate the copy continent, and the creatures in the copy continent, including the creatures on the main continent outside, can enter or leave at any time.

Therefore, even if the journey is further, we will move further away from the dungeon continent.

Therefore, there are generally no track marks around a replica continent, except near the entrance and exit.

But they happened to be entering that dungeon continent at that time, so their luck was quite bad.

It is impossible to escape by walking backwards, because this kind of escape is a tug-of-war, which is possible for hundreds or thousands of kilometers, rather than a short-distance operation.

It takes time to turn around in the city, the beast tide is quite huge, and there are energy beasts in the sky, so they failed to escape.

"About half a month ago, there were a dozen transport trucks in our city, and a small number of people drove the transport trucks to escape." In fact, it also attracted the energy behemoth at the city gate, giving the people inside the opportunity to escape on foot from the city gate.

.

Because the transporter is driven using energy blocks.

When encountering a wave of energy monsters, escaping in a transport truck is not much different from escaping with your feet.

Energy behemoths generally do not eat people, but they will still attack when they are angry. They will also eat if they are extremely hungry, because any living thing contains various nutrients. For creatures like energy behemoths, the proportion of nutrients contained is smaller.

, it’s just a bit unpalatable.

In this kind of beast tide, the energy giants are usually in a state of extreme hunger. With such a large number, a city cannot even fill their teeth.

So it will most likely eat up everything in its path.

Moreover, there are so many energy beasts in such a large area that the probability of being stepped on or bitten unconsciously when running through the herd is hopelessly high.
