War Paradise

The two figures wrapped in spacesuits trek through the Martian sandstorm that obscures the sky, looking for the location of the "Blood Eagle Tribe".

Although he didn't know where the tribe was based, after checking the map, Lin Chi decided to head for a hill three kilometers away.

—— Judging from the location where Sasha was exiled, the blood eagle tribe's territory should be not far away, and the canyon is too far away from here. Moreover, if the blood eagle tribe is really as weak as the introduction said, there should be no way to monopolize a canyon.

Mindful of this, Lin Chi relied on the map to shuttle through the sandstorm with extremely low visibility and walked towards the location of the hill.

"Is it this way."

Frankenstein's voice rang from Lin Chi's earphones. Even though the distance between the two of them was less than five meters, they almost couldn't see each other.

"I don't know, let's take a look first." Lin Chi said, speeding up his pace, using the one-foot jumping method he learned from Sasha, and advancing in the orange desert.

The spacesuit isolates the dust and noise in the air, but the oncoming gale still severely affects the speed of movement. Lin Chi and Frankenstein walked in the desert for an hour before finally reaching the hill three kilometers away.

"I hope this sandstorm will not last too long." Lin Chi said with emotion.

According to Lin Chi’s knowledge from popular science documentaries, Mars will have a global dust storm every three years (5.5 years relative to the earth’s time). When a global dust storm occurs, the entire surface of Mars will be flooded. Covered with sand and dust.

No matter how you look at it, this Planet is completely unsuitable for human habitation. Those who hope to "migrate to Mars" after the deterioration of the earth's environment will probably be disappointed...

Grasping the angular rocks on the ground, climbing up the not-so-steep peaks, and circling the slopes for a long time, the two finally found a dark cave.

At the top of the cave, a camouflage net with a color similar to the reddish-brown rock can be seen, but it was supposed to provide camouflage for the cave, but it was not put down at this time.

——Could it be that an accident happened inside?

Realizing that something was wrong, Lin Chi took out the Tyrannosaurus rex shotgun from his backpack and walked into the cave entrance vigilantly. Frankenstein also took out an M249 light machine gun painted with a shark pattern on the gun, and followed quickly.

Lin Chi, who was walking in the front, turned on the emergency light installed on the head of the spacesuit, and the dim beam of light plunged into the dark cave, reflecting the darkness of the cave wall.

Unlike natural caves, the stone walls of this cave are extraordinarily smooth, and there seems to be some patterns on the walls. Lin Chi turned his head and looked at the stone wall, only to see a crimson eagle flying above the stone wall.

Needless to say, this place should be the territory of the "Blood Eagle Tribe".

After seeing the pattern, Lin Chi and Frankenstein looked at each other, and they were much more cautious. Although the criminals should only have melee weapons, in a small cave, if those guys are lying in ambush, it will still be a little dangerous.

——Let’s take a look, what can the Blood Eagle tribe have...

Lin Chi was walking slowly, the light on the helmet suddenly found something shiny, and then the sight in front of his eyes surprised him a little:

What was reflecting was the glass mask of the protective suit. A big man holding a wide-blade butcher knife was standing behind the cave. The silver-gray protective suit was stained with splashes of blood.

The terrifying butcher carried a corpse on his left shoulder. After seeing the two of Lin Chi, he suddenly threw away the corpse and rushed out with a knife, slashing directly at Lin Chi's neck.

Before he could pounce on Lin Chi's side, he was swallowed by the flames from the muzzle of the Tyrannosaurus rex shotgun, and his whole body flew backwards, turning into a pool of rotten flesh on the stone wall.

"Who gave you the courage?" Lin Chi smiled.Because it was too slow to change bullets in a spacesuit, Lin Chi decisively stuffed the shotgun into his backpack, took out the ACR assault rifle and held it in his hand.

Although the bullets of these guns are not abundant, they are obviously enough to deal with criminals in exile without guns.

Two more men with knives rushed over and were knocked down by Frankenstein's M249 and fell into a pool of own blood. Two players with suppressive firepower, relying on their own weapon advantages, killed all the way to the inside of the cave.

The reverberating gunshots in the cave were isolated from the spacesuit. Lin Chi shot and killed an assailant holding a stick in front of him. When he passed by the opponent's body, he looked at that guy's clothes.

The man's protective suit was painted with a cobra pattern on his chest, and he was obviously not a member of the blood eagle tribe. It looks like it rushed into the territory of the Blood Eagle tribe during the sandstorm, and massacred the members of this tribe.

After another few steps, the piled corpses came into the sight of Lin Chi and Frankenstein.

Although it was difficult to identify, Lin Chi could see that these bloody corpses were all wearing the protective clothing of the Blood Eagle tribe. Among them was a child whose head was cut off mercilessly.

"It seems that the predator's son has died." Lin Chi whispered.

——If it hadn't been for the idiot to rush out and kill Sasha in the power armor, the Bloodhawk tribe would not have been slaughtered.

The two walked a little further into the wide cave, and saw a few piles of corpses scattered around the cave. It looks like they should be all members of the blood eagle tribe.

This battle was not a one-sided slaughter, because in addition to the members of the blood eagle tribe, many members of the tribe with the cobra pattern painted on the clothes were killed.

In addition, there is another detail that caught Lin Chi's attention:

"I don't need protective clothing here?"

Seeing the fallen members of the Blood Eagle tribe in the cave, many of them did not wear a helmet. Lin Chi tried to take off the helmet of the spacesuit. The suffocation in his imagination did not appear, but it was not much different from the earth.

In this way, there should be oxygen supply equipment in the cave. Although the bloody smell is a bit too heavy, Lin Chi is still very satisfied with the long-lost "fresh air".

"We can live here." Frankenstein also took off his helmet at this time, revealing his bandaged face.

"Then you have to clean up the body first. I don't want to live with the dead." Lin Chi smiled.

Without the protection of the helmet, he could finally hear the outside world. The whining wind outside the cave was undoubtedly caused by the sandstorm. And inside the cave, there were also some unusual calls:

"Squeak..."

A sound similar to the sound of a mouse came from inside a cave covered by shadows. Unlike the sound of a mouse, it was much louder than a mouse, and seemed to be made by a large animal.

--what?

Lin Chi and Frankenstein looked at each other, and they used the spacesuit helmets as flashlights in a tacit understanding, and walked slowly in the direction where the sound came from.

The question of "Martian animals" is beyond the scope that Lin Chi can answer. After all, even in the real world in 2035, people have not yet raised animals on a large scale on Mars.

So, what is it that makes the sound?

Lin Chi cautiously walked over and was ready to shoot at any time. Ten seconds later, a rough metal cage appeared in the line of sight, and several shadows in the cage were creeping.

"Squeak!"

The shrill cry sounded again, and Lin Chi and Frankenstein stepped forward and stood by the cage to observe the movement inside.

Then, what appeared in their sight was a weird animal they had never seen before:

Several large animals with gray fur were kept in a three-meter-high animal cage, which looked like a combination of a pig and a mouse.

Above the fat bodies of these animals, there are mouse-shaped heads, round black eyeballs turning around, avoiding the light created by emergency lights, opening their mouths full of fine fangs, and squeaking.

"Damn, what is this?" Lin Chi asked in surprise.

Next to the cage, he saw some pale bone remains, which were not shaped like human bones, they should have been taken from these animals. But the scene inside the cage is a bit wrong:

At the feet of those animals, there were tired bones, among which several human skeletons and many pieces of clothes were scattered in the cages.

"Could it be that……"

Seeing the situation inside the cage, and looking at the mouthful fangs of the animals taller than humans, Lin Chi almost understood the situation here.

"They feed on people." Frankenstein said what Lin Chi had in mind.

"That's right." Lin Chi looked at the weird animals and said with emotion: "This place is really crazy."

It seems that the members of the blood eagle tribe should be feeding these large animals with the flesh of the dead humans. Then kill these animals and eat their flesh.

No matter how frantic, these criminals should not use members of their tribe to feed animals. In this way, the reason why this place was attacked by people from other tribes is also very obvious.

——These people are actually not here to seek revenge, but to slaughter members of other tribes, and then use the corpses of other tribe members as fodder to feed their animals!

Just by looking at the chisel marks on the cage door, the members of that tribe should also want to take these animals away, but unfortunately they were too late to leave, so they were hit by Lin Chi and Frankenstein...

Lin Chi looked around and found a thin stone slab beside the iron cage with many strange circular characters engraved on it.

——This kind of strange text that doesn’t know its origin should be called "Martian text". The translation system built in the game played a role at this moment, translating the Martian text on the slate into Lin Chineng. Understand Chinese:

Pig and Rat Cooking Guide:

Pigs and rats are edible and delicious. It tastes better than dry human flesh.

The head of the pig and rat cannot be eaten, and there are too many teeth.

The stomach and intestines of pigs and rats cannot be eaten. There is meat in them.

Employed to raise.

Use the airship's deep-fried, or directly grill.

"It's stupid." After reading the "Cooking Guide" of the primary school level in Shiban, Frankenstein shook his head.

"It's all nonsense, but you just need to know that this stuff is food." Lin Chi smiled, turned to look at the iron pot not far from the cage, and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Unlike NPCs, players do not need to eat in the game. But when he found "food" from Mars, Lin Chi still wanted to try how it tasted.

"No." Frankenstein shook his head again: "I don't eat people.""It's different from cannibalism..." Lin Chi looked at the iron pot beside him with some regret, then turned around and continued to search for available resources in the cave.

All the members of the Blood Eagle tribe were killed, which saved him a lot of effort. The "robbing" that was planned before has suddenly become a "scavenger" that sounds more civilized.

In the innermost corner of the cave, Lin Chi found a locked cabinet. He swiped the electronic lock with the key card in his hand, and the cabinet door unlocked with a click.

After opening the cabinet, what appeared in front of the two of them were several spare protective suits. The dark brown coat chests were all hung with a blood eagle pattern.

"Put this on," he said.

Wearing an old spacesuit on Mars, it is not as convenient to move as this kind of protective clothing, and this kind of protective clothing also has a simple oxygen supply device built in, so that the wearer will not be directly suffocated outside.

After changing into this suit, the battle is undoubtedly much more convenient than it is now, and there is no need to worry that the spacesuit’s fingers are too thick to pull the trigger.

The two rummaged in the protective suits and found two suits suitable for their body shape. After taking off their space suits, they put on the "battle robe" of the Blood Eagle tribe.

After changing his clothes, he picked up a sharp, wide-bladed knife from the pile of corpses and put it into his backpack. Lin Chi leaned contentedly on the slate bed in the corner of the cave and smiled: "Let’s take a break."

Seeing his lazy appearance, Frankenstein didn't say anything, but continued to search for usable props in the cave filled with corpses.

Lin Chi only stayed for less than two minutes, and Frankenstein’s voice sounded from the other side of the cave:

"found it."

"What did you find?" he asked with his eyes closed.

"Clues." Frankenstein said.

Hearing this ambiguous answer, Lin Chi stood up and walked over. When he came to Frankenstein's side, he saw a stone slab engraved with Mars on the ground:

"Sasha, betrayer, exile."

"Corfus, captive, feed."

"Fatty, captive, feed."

——It seems that what is written on this slate is how to deal with enemies and betrayers. However, if there is only this kind of content, Frankenstein would not call himself over...

Realizing this, Lin Chi skipped the large number of names on the top, and directly focused on the few lines at the bottom of the slate:

"The scientist is here and wants to trade with us. He said he can leave here and return to the earth. The blood eagle tribe will contact the scientist and get a chance to go back!"

——The scientist intends to take the criminals back? However, those scientists with powerful firepower seemed to be slaughtering criminals before...

When Lin Chi was thinking about it, a faint rustling sound suddenly sounded in the earphones on the neck of the protective suit.

He put on the headphones and heard an old voice coming out:

"Are the blood eagles here? Here are the scientists."

Hearing this, Lin Chi also immediately entered the role and replied, "Yes, is there anything to do with us?"

"Come on coordinates 23 and 14." The scientist sent a response: "I will give you a second chance."
