Enforcer's Handbook

After a little reorganization, the team set off again.

Although it was a convoy, after all the mercenaries fled, there were only two vehicles left. Lu Xiang and Song Lan drove the truck in front, and Lu Feng and his assistant followed them.

"That's not your style."

Lu Xiang, who was sitting in the driver's seat of the truck, said, "I thought you would yell to go back."

Song Lan's words of "drive the car over" successfully frightened Lu Feng and his assistant. After hesitating for a while, the two finally decided to go with them to the twelfth country.

"This is your rare vacation."

Song Lan leaned on the passenger seat, leisurely blowing the cool breeze from the air conditioner.

Based on his understanding of Lu Xiang, she has probably never taken a serious vacation since she came to District 17. Although this trip was also a business trip, it allowed her to put down her heavy work after a long time. When she returns to District 17, she will focus on her work again and hold meetings to discuss how to deal with the Barossa Group's problems.

"Aren't you afraid of trouble?"

Lu Xiang turned his face and smiled at Song Lan.

"Some troubles can be avoided, but if you have to be disturbed even when traveling with your girlfriend, then what fun is there in life?"

"Do you want to reward you with one?"

"Drive well and don't drive dangerously." Song Lan said, "As a law enforcer, you cannot break the law without knowing it."

"Then let's pay first... By the way, we are about to enter the desert area ahead. This area is the area where death crabs are most active. I originally expected the mercenaries to plan the route, but they all ran away."

Criminal groups are not the only threats on border trade lines. Brutal mutant animals are also one of the caravan killers.

"According to statistics, hundreds of people die every month from attacks by mutant animals such as Death Crabs. The Foster family and neutral countries once sent people to clean up this area, but they all failed in the end."

Instead of driving the Death Crabs out, the purge troops sent suffered heavy casualties.

People who don't understand the terrain simply can't compete with the death crabs living in groups in the desert.

"Let me start by saying that there is nothing I can do against the Death Crab."

Lu Xiang said.

The only weapons they have now are guns taken from the rangers. These live ammunition firearms can hit people, but they are really embarrassing to use against death crabs that even armor-piercing bullets have difficulty breaking through.

At that time, the Foster family even got a few tanks. The tank's electromagnetic gun could penetrate the death crab's carapace, but when faced with the death crab, which could freely shuttle in the sand, it was soon dug into a hole and dragged into the sand. "Some scholars believe that some creatures have acquired a certain degree of intelligence through mutation. If we treat them as ordinary beasts, we will suffer a big loss."

"Do not worry."

Song Lan feels that sometimes ignorance is also a kind of happiness.

If ordinary people knew what was hidden under the sand, they might never dare to do business again in their lives.

He found that every time he spread his psychic powers on a large scale, something bad would happen. In fact, along the way they just walked, there were many mysterious creatures hidden under their feet that made Song Lan's scalp numb. In addition to the God of Death, In addition to crabs, there were some mutant creatures in deeper layers that were even larger in size and that he couldn't even name.

This desert is like the deep sea. The further down you go, the more terrifying things there are.

In 2166, maybe people here will suffer from a disease called sand phobia.

Fortunately, as Lu Xiang said, these abstract creatures possess a certain degree of wisdom, which is embodied in the fact that they can carry out some simple communication through spiritual energy.

"I had a chat with them and they were willing to sell me a favor."

Song Lan moved with love and reason, and it was not easy when he was away from home. From now on, everyone will be buddies.

The reasonableness of the mutant creatures had to give Song Lan a strange idea - the more people he saw, the more he would like these mutant animals.

If only that team of rangers could do the same.

"real?"

"Really, although they look a little scary, they are very easy to talk to."

Song Lan pointed to the rocks not far ahead, "There is a four to five meter long Death Crab squatting underneath."

As he spoke, he waved his hand in the direction of the stone in a friendly manner, and Lu Xiang also looked in the direction he pointed. The Death Crab did not appear, but the huge stone shook several times, as if to attack them. Say hello.

Hearing this, Lu Xiang was thoughtful.

After a moment, she suddenly stepped on the brakes and slowly parked the bus on the side of the road.

"Since they are so easy to talk to, could you ask them if they can let us spend the night here?"

Another forty minutes away is the second town. From now on to the twelfth country, it is the sphere of influence of the Barossa Group. Living in a small town is not a wise choice. Although she is not afraid of traveling. Cavalry, but once they engage in a firefight with pursuers in a densely populated town, innocent civilians will inevitably be involved.

Judging from the Rangers' actions, they don't seem like people who would spare a hand for the civilians in the town.

Here is an endless desert. The Rangers can detect the presence of each other as soon as they approach. The disadvantage is that the pursuers of the Barossa Group can also target them from a distance of one or two kilometers.

"I asked, and they didn't have any objections."

Song Lan gave an affirmative answer.

Lu Feng, who was unaware of this, got out of the car and ran towards them in a hurry. Since he provoked the Barossa Group, his whole body was in a state of high nervousness. As soon as Lu Xiang stopped the car, he It felt like missiles were about to hit them.

"Director Lu, what happened?"

He was out of breath running under the bright sun.

"It's not safe in the town. We plan to spend the night here."

"here?"

Lu Feng couldn't believe his ears, "This may be your first time in the 'outside world'. This is the most dangerous area. Even the Rangers of the Barossa Group would not dare to fire in this area easily. If If you stir up what’s under the sand, everyone has to finish it!”

He also knew that the town ahead was extremely dangerous, but no matter how dangerous it was, could the Death Crab's habitat be in danger?

"Since we are mercenaries now, please trust our judgment."

Song Lan said, "Have you forgotten my identity?"

"...Seriously, who are you?"

In fact, when Song Lan made the declaration of "drive the car over" just now, that was what he wanted to ask.

"Experts from the Tesla Technology Biotechnology Department, the purpose of my trip is to study the ecology of the desert area."

Lu Feng was immediately confused by Song Lan.

Aren't they law enforcers masquerading as researchers?

He recognized Lu Xiang, but he really didn't know who Song Lan was.

"You don't believe it? Do you want me to call my buddy out to say hello to you?"

"Your brother..."

Before Lu Feng could finish his words, a sudden shock under his feet scared him out of his wits. He didn't even bother to look back. He screamed and climbed onto the roof of the truck. When he looked down, he saw the drill behind where he was standing. A jet-black crab as tall as a person came out, with two pliers as sharp as sickles stuck in front of it.

The real Death Crab.

However, Song Lan calmly got out of the car and walked towards this creature that could give anyone in the neutral country nightmares.

He took out the mineral water bottle in his hand and said, "This looks like a bottle of mineral water on the surface, but it is actually the latest pheromone developed by Tesla Technology."

He stretched out his right hand and slapped the Death Crab's pincers, "As long as you have it, the Death Crab will treat you as one of its own kind."
