Embers Ad Infinitum

Not only Long Yuehong could think of it, but other people also had such speculations. After all, everyone only knew so much about the ruins of Wasteland No. 13, and they only knew that Wu Meng existed.

Wang Fugui looked at the place where the wolf howl came from, recalled and said:

"It's in the opposite direction to the 'Dao and Electrical Maintenance' radio station..."

The last time he entered, Gnawa roughly detected where the "Dao and Electrical Maintenance" radio station was. Therefore, when exploring today, both teams chose a route away from this area.

Although they either received intelligence or "self" inferred that the only things Wu Meng could directly affect were various electrical appliances, and then used electrical appliances to deal with humans, there was a premise for this, and that was "long distance."

——The opposite metal door at the exit was found to be an electronically controlled door after subsequent inspection. This is something that can be foreseen. After all, it is extremely heavy and requires manual labor to open and close it every day, which is very inconvenient. At that time, Gnawa, Jiang Baimian, and Shang Jianyao chose to push it themselves because they believed that there would be no electricity. At the same time, they I am also more confident in my own strength.

Once the distance between the two teams, Wu Meng, and the "Dao and Electrical Maintenance" radio station is reduced to within one kilometer, or less, no one knows what will happen except those who have experienced it personally and survived.

What Wang Fugui means is that even if Wu Meng is really the master of the giant white wolf, the influence he can exert in that direction is limited.

"Maybe Bai Lang has a few electrical appliances around him..." Jiang Baimian said quietly.

Wang Fugui laughed dumbly and laughed at himself:

"Also, if you don't know the person well enough, it's better not to act rashly. No one stipulates that he must stay in the radio station area."

What he said... Long Yuehong's hair stood on end again.

Because this means that Wu Meng may appear around them at any time.

"Maybe he really can't leave the radio station, otherwise, he would have come to find us long ago..." Shang Jianyao changed into a ghost story tone as he spoke.

"Then let's go back in the other direction." Waite immediately suggested.

Jiang Baimian glanced at Long Yuehong and Bai Chen:

"good."

Gray and Fals also had no objections.

A group of eight people no longer returned the same way, because that would be close to the place where the giant white wolf made the sound.

Likewise, they also avoided the area where the "Tao and Electrical Repair" radio station was located.

Because they chose a relatively unfamiliar road, the two teams could not move faster and had to be prepared for possible attacks at all times.

Along the way, when they encounter more valuable items, they will still pick them up, anyway, they just do it casually.

The principle of distribution is whoever gets it first gets it.

This did not lead to internal strife on the premise that supplies were abundant and no one would be left in despair.

Shang Jianyao was wearing the gray camouflage uniform today. He put down the sleeves of both hands to cover his wrists in the hot weather.

On his left wrist, the "blind ring" woven from black hair lights up with a fiery light every once in a while, helping him expand his sensing range.

Of course, this cannot be maintained all the time, and the energy inside the item will be depleted very quickly, only once every few minutes.

On the street where vehicles were parked chaotically and some areas were invaded by green plants, the two teams were on each side, seven or eight meters apart.

Shang Jianyao held the "Berserker" assault rifle and walked step by step among the telephone poles and street trees.

Two minutes ago, he had just completed a induction. There was no other human consciousness or aberrant biological consciousness within a hundred meters.

Suddenly, Jiang Baimian turned his head and looked towards the side where Wang Fugui and the others were, looking towards a narrow alley.

"There's a situation... there's a situation..." She was just about to give a reminder and shoot over there with the "short neck" submachine gun, when her thinking suddenly became sluggish, as if she was attacked by the cold and partially frozen, or turned into an old man. Although a computer that is in disrepair can barely turn on, it always lags when running. Things that can normally be completed in one second may take three or four seconds.

Almost at the same time, she saw Gray, who was tightly wrapped in leather clothes and seemed a little cold, looking at her and the others.

The slightly rough face was full of enthusiasm, and the light in the blue eyes was solidified.

"He...was...charmed...by...the white wolf..." When such an idea flashed through Jiang Baimian's mind, Shang Jianyao and Bai Chen also experienced abnormalities, and their every move was normal. Advancing at a rate of one-third or even slower.

Long Yuehong was not affected.

He noticed something was wrong with the team leader and others, and immediately took a step forward, trying to seize a favorable position, and fired at Wang Fugui and others to suppress fire.

However, as soon as he stepped out with his right foot, he felt the muscles contract and twist, and felt severe pain.

He had cramps. At such a critical moment, his legs were cramped!

When her body tilted involuntarily, Long Yuehong saw Fars, a tall man with blond hair and blue eyes.

This relic hunter also had a fanatical look on his face, as if he was going through life and death for someone.

At this time, he clenched his fists tightly and his pupils were deep.

On the other side, Waite, who was originally in Long Yuehong's field of vision, suddenly disappeared.

Just disappeared into thin air!

In the process of falling to the ground, Long Yuehong saw the team leader's left arm raised faster than his right hand, as if he was not affected.

Among the team of lone hunters, Wang Fugui was the one who behaved strangely. He did not show any expressions of enthusiasm, admiration, or obedience, but instead had a look of hatred on his face, as if he had met an sworn enemy.

Immediately afterwards, he shouted in a deep voice to Gray, Fals and where Waite was standing:

"Hate it!"

The enthusiasm and admiration on the faces of Gray and Fars disappeared instantly, and turned into extreme hatred for a certain target.

They quickly turned around and looked into the depths of the side alley.

They were faster, and Jiang Baimian was faster. He had already aimed there and pulled the trigger.

——When Gray turned around, the freeze or slowness in Jiang Baimian's thinking was lifted, and her left hand had already raised the weapon to the predetermined position.

Click, click, click, a large number of bullets poured over there, converging on a certain telephone pole.

Shang Jianyao put down the assault rifle and let it hang on his body.

He took off the "Tyrant" grenade gun with his backhand and aimed it at the target area.

A grenade flew past.

Boom!

Amidst the explosion, a white wolf silhouette jumped back and jumped into the corner of the alley.

The hair on its tail is slightly charred and curved, and on its head is a dark black thing that looks like a headset.

In an instant, the white wolf disappeared in front of everyone.

"Want to chase?" Shang Jianyao looked at Jiang Baimian.

Jiang Baimian pondered for a moment and said:

"It's better not to use it."

She immediately said to Wang Fugui:

"You're not 'charmed' by the white wolf."

The hatred on Wang Fugui's face had dissipated, and he smiled and said:

"If they weren't confident, why would they be willing to come with me?"

They were referring to Gray, Fales, and the reappearing Waite.

The three relic hunters looked at Wang Fugui with a bit of admiration in their expressions.

"Hey, Bai Lang didn't choose to 'charm' us..." Shang Jianyao whispered with regret on his face.

That will let it know what surprise is.

"..." Long Yuehong didn't complain this time, because he thought so too.

Jiang Baimian said "hmm" when he heard this:

"It seems that although White Wolf's 'charm' has a limited number, it can actively select targets."

This is fundamentally different from Qiao Chu.

"But how can it accurately grasp the interval of my induction and enter the range where the ability takes effect?" Shang Jianyao was quite confused about this and had switched to reasoning mode.

Fortunately, the "old tune team" has always been a double insurance, as well as Jiang Baimian's bioelectric signal induction.

Jiang Baimian was equally puzzled. He looked around and thought:

"Could they be at work?"

Following her gaze, Long Yuehong, Bai Chen, Wang Fugui and others saw the surveillance camera on the street lamp.

Jiang Baimian said in a deep voice:

"Just because we didn't bring any electronic products doesn't mean there aren't any in the ruins of this city."

"Then it, then it is equal to Wu Meng's 'eyes'?" Long Yuehong blurted out.

Wang Fugui frowned slightly and said:

"But after so many years, there should have been no electricity here."

Could it be that Wu Meng could still make dead things generate electricity?

"We haven't tried it, how do we know there is no electricity here?" Bai Chen, who has experience with the Marsh No. 1 ruins, asked back.

There is electricity there at regular intervals.

Jiang Baimian then looked at a shop on the street and made a thoughtful suggestion:

"Go in and try to see if the light can still turn on."

They were not in a hurry to evacuate the area, because it was more important to figure out this problem - if they didn't pay attention and ignored it later, they might suffer big losses.

"Okay." Wang Fugui, Gray and others looked at each other.

Shang Jianyao quickly stepped into the roadside shop and pressed the switch with the muzzle of his gun.

There are no changes to the lighting in the store.

"Maybe it broke early..." Long Yuehong guessed the possibility.

As soon as he finished speaking, the lamp suddenly made a buzzing sound and lit up with a white light.

The light is sometimes bright and sometimes dark, giving people a feeling of very unstable voltage, and the alternation of light and dark is not very regular.

"This..." Waite said in shock.

In his opinion, it was not like the ruins of the city originally had electricity, but that someone deliberately energized the place after he waited for others to turn on the lights, otherwise it would not have turned on after a while.

"Sure enough." Wang Fugui sighed.

There is electricity here, somehow.

Long Yuehong said immediately:

"Then let's evacuate as soon as possible."

This time, neither Jiang Baimian nor Shang Jianyao responded to his proposal. They were both looking at the flickering light tubes, as if they were studying some important topic.

"What's wrong?" Bai Chen asked.

Jiang Baimian pursed his lips and said:

"This light bulb flashes a bit like Morse code..."

"Huh?" Waite, Fals and others were all a little confused.

This involves their knowledge blind spots.

Jiang Baimian quickly decoded the content recorded by the auxiliary chip and said slowly:

"The translation is:

"The Tao is in circuits, electrical panels, and electrical appliances..."
