Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Chapter 97: Wandering Body Tide (Revised)

Shen Xing looked back for a long time and really couldn't figure it out.

I could only shake my head and say, "I can't see clearly."

"Me too, but I have a feeling this wave of wandering bodies is dangerous."

Xia Jiumeng couldn't see it either, but her intuition was indeed very accurate.

"Well, we just need to be careful." Shen Xinghui gently touched the top of her head to signal her not to worry.

With him around, she won't be in danger.

"it is good."

The two of them packed up briefly and went to rest because they had other things to do tomorrow.

When Li Shen came back, they had all gone to their respective rooms to rest.

The hotel suite was very large, with exactly three rooms. Li Shen walked towards the last empty room on the left.

......

The next morning, Xia Jiumeng, Shen Xinghui and Li Shen went to the high wall in the south of the city together.

A temporary management office was set up there.

"Everyone, we have set up three lines of defense at 800 meters, 1200 meters and 1500 meters outside the city." The staff of the management office looked through their information.

"Mr. Shen, I think you are a high-level hunter, right?"

"Yeah." Shen Xinghui nodded.

"Miss Xia is a novice hunter, please be careful."

Xia Jiumeng nodded obediently.

"Mr. Li...you, aren't a hunter?"

The staff member thought he was seeing things and took another look to confirm that he was not seeing things and looked at him strangely.

"Mr. Li, hunter work is very dangerous. Even if you have Evol, you can't..."

The staff member hesitated to speak. After all, it was the first time he encountered someone who was not a hunter and wanted to participate in intercepting a stray body.

Except for hunters, ordinary people are all terrified of stray animals. They think running is not fast enough, so who would chase after them?

"It's okay, I understand."

After hearing what Li Shen said, the staff had no choice but to give up.

He was traveling with his hunter friends, and no one had any objections, so what could he say?

"I've looked at your information. Although the other two may not be very experienced, Mr. Shen is a high-level hunter, and the level of this wandering body is not high either. Is it okay to arrange for you to go to the 1500-meter defense line?"

Xia Jiumeng and the others looked at each other and said, "Okay."

"Okay, then I'll arrange for you to go there."

The staff checked the time.

"The time will soon come when the energy imbalance will be reached. Then the wandering bodies will riot. You should go outside the city and tear down the protective line now."

Xia Jiumeng and the others nodded, put on the protective clothing handed to them by the staff, and left the city.

It was a vest-style jacket and loose combat pants similar to a hunter's uniform.

When they arrived at the protection line, they saw many veteran hunters and their new partners standing together in protective clothing, chatting casually.

It seems that they did not take this mission seriously, and even the equipment of the defense line was very simple.

Some temporary defense lines made of stacked sandbags and a few simple and crude-looking tents were used for weapon replacement, simple trauma treatment and temporary rest.

"So simple?" Xia Jiumeng looked at the scene with some displeasure.

The first line of defense to block stray bodies was surprisingly simple.

Whether it is confidence in the hunter's ability or underestimation of the stray bodies that appear every year, it is a very serious mistake.

Human beings are always self-righteous, and it takes a bloody lesson for them to learn their lesson.

No matter what kind of creature it is, there is a possibility of change. A short period of unchanging state is likely just a disguise.

As the first line of defense, it should be well-equipped to give those behind it time to react and make quick arrangements when an accident occurs.

Here, it’s too bad.

No wonder the genocide was almost destroyed by the wandering body.

Shen Xing looked back at Xia Jiumeng and suddenly seemed to see the queen who stood at the pinnacle of power on the planet Philos and controlled everything.

When Xia Jiumeng dreamed of going to take a look together, she saw Shen Xinghui looking at her with sparkling eyes, and even a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Shen Xinghui?" He waved his hand in front of her.

"Sorry, I was distracted." Shen Xinghui smiled a little embarrassedly.

"It's okay, where's Li Shen?"

"He went to the treatment tent." Shen Xinghui said innocently, pointing to the tent on the left.

It seems like I’m the one who’s saying, partner, I’m the best~ I’ll follow you all the time.

Unlike him, he came and ran away.

"He should be looking to see what medical equipment is there."

"Let's go to the weapons room first."

"They can't let us provide our own weapons."

Xia Jiumeng shrugged. Their hunter weapons only had twenty bullets, and the wandering body tides came out in the dozens, hundreds, or even thousands. This number of bullets was far from enough.

Even if there is evol, humans are not machines and cannot generate and use superpowers continuously.

Faced with a huge number of stray bodies, humans still need the support of hot weapons.

The two walked into the weapons room and looked at the things inside. They were speechless. It wasn't that there weren't a few things, there were quite a lot.

Evol shotgun. Two-shot energy rifle, energy bomb. Core energy gun.

But they are basically older models on the market.

Luoxia City is so poor?

How come the weapons are so backward, even worse than those used in the Hunter Association training ground in Linkong City?

Shen Xinghui saw through her confusion and said, "Luoxia City has huge consumption, and they are a city that Country Z has been fully controlling, and they are directly facing the dangerous area of ​​stray bodies, so..."

Xia Jiumeng nodded in understanding after hearing this.

Well, there is huge consumption, economic tension, official control, and some people cannot move in, so the influx of some new types of weapons is restricted.

Summary: Really miserable.

However, she turned around and asked, "How did you know?"

Shen Xinghui smiled helplessly, "These can be found on the general websites of all hunter associations."

“When I’m not reading, I browse.”

"Great." Xia Jiumeng gave correct feedback and praised.

Just as they wanted to continue watching, the alarm sounded along the entire defense line.

Quick! Everyone, take up your weapons! "

"A wandering body has appeared!"

"Deep Space Hunters, get to the defense line!"

A few loud shouts immediately alerted the originally scattered crowd, and the entire defense line became tense and busy in an instant.

Li Shen also hurriedly ran out of the temporary medical room to meet up with Xia Jiumeng and the others.

"Li Shen, you are not..." Xia Jiumeng was a little surprised when she saw the man running towards her.

"I also have special abilities, maybe I can help, it's a good opportunity to familiarize myself with them." Li Shen equipped himself with energy weapons with quick movements.

After Li Shen said this, Xia Jiumeng didn't say anything else. The three of them followed everyone and waited at the defense line.

From a distance, you can see many dense black spots appearing in the dense forest not far away.

"Coming! Get ready!"

Someone suddenly shouted to alert everyone, and everyone held their guns and stared at the black spot nervously.

After the first gunshot killed the stray body running towards them, everyone started shooting frantically.
