C1244 A Chance Encounter
About 600 kilometers southwest of the Kandita settlement, a jeep broke down in a desert.
The nuclear war not only caused the wasteland, but also destroyed a large amount of vegetation. At the same time, it also increased the area of the world's desertification.
In the 35 years of Evil Era, at least 45% of the land area of the entire world was in the form of deserts. The most terrifying thing was that the area of the desert was still expanding with the passage of time. As for preventing the area of the desert from increasing year by year, humans had no way to do anything about it.
In fact, in such an era, no one would pay attention to such a problem.
As for the giants, even if it was a desert, it would not affect their survival.
As long as there was enough food, those giants could live in any kind of environment on this land. . .
From the perspective of biological evolution, giants indeed had a lot of advantages compared to ordinary mutated humans.
Beside the jeep that had broken down, a man and a woman were taking a large bag of food and water out of the jeep with an unlucky look on their faces. Although the sun was not hanging high in the sky and the sky was still gloomy, the climate in the desert was still very uncomfortable.
"Mr. Qin Yunyi! Didn't you add oil before you came out of Arthur City?"
Wang Yu threw the big bag on Qin Yunyi's shoulder and scolded him angrily.
Qin Yunyi scratched the back of his head awkwardly. "Well, people make mistakes, horses make mistakes. . . I. . . I forgot about this too. "
"Look at how smart you usually are, as if nothing in this world can escape your scheme. So you can't even remember adding oil to the oil. "
Wang Chao still couldn't help but mock.
The two of them had been driving the jeep in this desert for almost two days. Originally, they thought that they would arrive at their destination in one day. However, they did not expect the jeep to suddenly break down its anchor. Only then did Qin Yunyi remember. The oil that they had brought with them when they came out of Seventh Division had been mostly used up when they arrived at Arthur City.
When he came out of the Arthur City, he had never considered the problem of oil. It had only been two days, and he had already lost all motivation. . .
"Cough cough, it's really a mistake. Fortunately, the distance isn't too far. Our journey will only take a few hours. It's faster than driving. " Qin Yunyi carried a bag full of food and water on his back with a fawning look on his face.
"Humph! No matter how fast he walked, it was not as comfortable as riding a car. There are already a lot of corrosive substances in the air, so once I exercise a lot, I'll be able to absorb a lot of the surrounding air, and my skin will become rougher than before. " Wang still didn't give Qin Yunyi any face.
"Hehe, not at all. Your skin is still as smooth as silk. This is my personal experience. " Qin Yunyi was still licking his face. His flattering look didn't show the slightest bit of dignity that a Tenth Grade Expert should have.
"You only know how to say good things. Eh? There's a giant?"
King raised his hand and wanted to pat Qin Yunyi's back, but he suddenly found traces of the giant in his line of sight.
However, due to the distance being too far, King's vision was still very blurry. He could only roughly tell where the giant was.
This was the first time the two of them had seen a giant during their two days of travel. It was obvious that the nearby giants had been eliminated. It was unknown whether it was the Doran Company's doing or the Kandita company's doing.
"En, a giant is attacking a group of refugees with more than a dozen people. Tsk tsk. . . " Qin Yunyi's tone was full of admiration.
"What's wrong?" The king asked curiously.
"The quality of this refugee team is quite good. There are more than a dozen refugees, but none of them are good. The firearms seem to only have two light weapons. However, with just those simple cold weapons in their hands, they are actually able to deal with that giant. . . Although I am afraid that they will not be able to hold on for long, these refugees are quite good at fighting. . . "
Qin Yunyi said as he took a big step forward. " Let's go and take a look! If this place is close to the Kandita, this group of refugees might be from the Kandita! "
. . .
. . .
Although Balotelli was only sixteen years old this year, it was already the third year since he led his team out to hunt giants. In the past three years, he had killed 23 giants in his team. Although this number was not the top in Kandita City, it was not falling behind either. It could be considered as a medium level.
However, in the past three years, no less than a hundred of his team members had died in the hands of the giant. Currently, his team and himself had a total of 16 people. The longest team that had followed him was only a year and a half. As for the first group of team members, they had all died a long time ago.
Balotelli felt that he was really lucky. In these three years, He did not know how many times he felt that he was doomed, but in the end, he always passed through those dangerous passes without any danger. His teammates died wave after wave, but he was the only one who survived unwaveringly. The hunting of twenty-three giants also made Balotelli a little famous in Kandita City. He could be considered an expert in hunting giants.2
However, judging from the looks of it today. . . It seemed like they were going to be completely wiped out. . .
While Balotelli was dealing with the giant in front of him, he smiled bitterly to himself.
He did not expect the giant in front of him to be so difficult to deal with. Although it was still an ordinary fifth-grade giant, his hunting techniques were actually useless against this giant!
No matter what method he used to hunt down the giant before him, the final result would be that he would return empty-handed. Not only would he not be able to pose any threat to the giant before him, but he would also cause severe injuries to his own team members.
In the three years of hunting, this was the most helpless time Balotelli had ever experienced. It was as if this giant could see through all of his means.
Subconsciously, Balotelli recalled the things he had heard in the tavern before he came out. Some hunters were lamenting in the tavern. Recently, the giants had become more and more cunning. It was getting harder and harder to hunt them. Many giants seemed to be very familiar with their hunting methods. Not only had the hunting teams in Kandita suffered heavy losses during this period of time, their harvests were also much less than before.
Initially, Balotelli did not take these news to heart. He only thought that those hunters were not good enough. With his three years of hunting experience, naturally, those mediocre hunters could not be compared to him. But now, it seemed like those mediocre hunters were not good enough. It was totally not the case!
"Captain! This can't go on! Our hunting techniques are useless against this giant! Let's escape!"
One of the team members was almost slapped by the giant. He rolled on the ground in a sorry state before standing up and shouting.
"Run? Run my a * s! If we don't maintain this encirclement formation, we won't be able to restrain the giant. With the giant's speed, no one will be able to escape! "
Balotelli roared furiously.
"But. . . But even if we continue to hold on like this, it will be useless. When we are not strong enough, we will still be eaten by the giant!" That team member continued to shout.
Balotelli did not reply. He knew that what his team member said was right, but. . . What could he do if he did not persist?
