[Extra 16. Brave New World (4)]
Joyner jumped out of the car and went straight to the tanker where the prisoners were held. She picked up the broken angle iron and prepared to reinstall it. This was not done to prevent the prisoners from escaping, on the contrary, it was Joyner’s guarantee of their safety, or some kind of test.
When the prisoners saw Joyner again, they began to scream in fear. But this time Joyner turned a deaf ear to her words, and her cold emotions remained calm.
Although she didn’t have a detailed plan, she had already thought of it. The next step was to go to the place where these people were supposed to go – the settlement called Hidden Sand Castle.
When she gets there, she will let these people go. Whether they can survive successfully in the future has nothing to do with her.
Joyner was about to bend the angle iron when she accidentally saw the child again. After thinking for a moment, she swayed and reached out to snatch the child from her mother’s arms.
The mother was completely unable to withstand Joyner’s power. Suddenly, the child in her hand disappeared. Her face was stunned, and then she started shouting crazily, biting the iron net like a crazy she-wolf, but… Didn’t chase him.
Joyner sneered, hugged the little boy and walked away without looking back. She walked out of the car with firm and steady steps.
When passing the iron fence, Joyner deliberately stared into the mother’s ferocious eyes. The sense of coercion emanating from her whole body was suffocating.
The woman’s screams suddenly stopped, and her eyes gradually became dull, as if she had realized something.
She collapsed to the ground with a “gudong” sound.
Joyner strode back, jumped directly into the front cab of the tanker, found a rope, trapped the little boy firmly in the seat, arranged her hair, and waited for a moment.
As she expected, the woman who lost her child did not chase her down.
It was as if the innate fear always lingered in her heart, as if she would encounter some danger or encounter a terrifying beast as soon as she left the iron cage.
Joyner jumped out of the car expressionlessly again, planning to raid other cars for supplies. She turned around and glared at the little boy fiercely, the warning in her eyes obvious.
The little boy’s eyes were clear, but they were full of fear, and his body was trembling. He didn’t know what this demon who had killed all the bandits was going to do to him, so he huddled in the corner and said nothing.
Joyner chose this boy because she saw that he was more conscious than the others and his eyes were rational. So it is guessed that he has not been corroded by the giant hemp grass juice for too long. More importantly, he might know the way out of this desolate place.
After Joyner got off the car, she continued to shuttle through the convoy. Several other vehicles had some compressed dry food stored in them. The food was in the form of lumps, presumably the same slimy food she had eaten before.
In addition, there are some bottled water and blankets to keep out the cold. She also found some fuel in other vehicles. After thinking about it, she quickly gathered these things and put them all on the truck.
In another car, she easily found cooked leather armor, as well as weapons such as tomahawks, javelins, daggers, and daggers used by the bandits.
Joyner picked up the dagger and looked at it carefully. Judging from experience, it was made of fine steel, and the smelting process was quite high.
Looking at forging technology alone, the technological level of this era is not as low as imagined.
This kind of fine steel may have been smelted twice or three times, including a lot of melting, dephosphorization, and decarburization, and it was also mixed with other metals. Then, the initially produced molten steel is deoxidized and desulfurized in a container with an inert gas or reducing atmosphere to remove impurities and undergo fine-tuning of the composition.
“Swish–” She waved it a few times casually. The dagger was heavy in her hand, and the wooden handle was rough, but it felt comfortable to hold. The blade of the dagger is coated with a layer of nickel-manganese coating, and its seemingly simple appearance is surprisingly lethal.

casually put two daggers on her body, and picked a short knife and carried it on her back. In this barbaric and chaotic era, having a few handy weapons means staying alive.
She couldn’t help but think of the pictures of “ancient” armies that could only be seen in books. In the past, these weapons could only be placed in museums, but now they seemed to be equivalent to the afterimages of the ancient armies, with no trace of their rough and heroic spirit.
Joyner randomly checked the bandits’ relics, and rummaged through the scattered wooden boxes to find some clothes that smelled sour and dusty, as well as several pieces of protective armor. The appearance of those armors cannot be said to be similar to those of the sand bandits, but they can basically be said to be the same.
The material of the clothing is a bit like linen, with a tough texture. The stitches used to sew the fabric are very wide, and the overall production process is rough.
She hesitated for a moment, then pulled off the original rags on her body, endured the strong smell, put these clothes on, and moved around a few times. She knew that this scent would allow her to more fully integrate with this era. Maybe, this is what will always be with her body from now on.
After getting dressed, she took the cooked leather armor and compared it with herself. The broad shoulder pads were decorated with various barbaric and primitive ornaments, giving it a very heavy feel. She estimated that with the strength of ordinary people, it would be difficult to cut scratches on it with cold weapons, let alone cut into it.
Joyner looked at the remaining materials and then at the high bulge on her chest. She sighed slightly and simply put two strips of cloth together and tied a knot in the middle to make an uncomfortable wipe for herself. chest.
Then he picked up the belt studded with rivets and straddled it diagonally across his chest. He imitated the appearance of a bandit and tied three two-finger-wide pieces of rawhide around his waist as a belt, with buckles inserted at the joints. Then he chose a set of armor that was the smallest but still ill-fitting and wrapped himself up.
In fact, these armors are simply superfluous to her. They are just accessories at most, but the effect of wearing them on her body is obvious. At least it will not make her look too alien in this era.
After seeing her appearance in the reflector, Joyner finally couldn’t help but smile.
——No matter how she disguises herself, her smooth and delicate body parts can still be seen under the armor, with skin as pale and smooth as ivory. The texture was weird, completely different from the gravel-like texture of other people’s skin that had been ravaged by the scorching sun and wind.
At the same time, it also exposed her incompatibility with people of this era.
“Perhaps in a settlement with many humans, there should be people like me?”
Joyner thought to herself and comforted herself.
She threw away the rubbish that was not necessary to take away, filled a few large buckets of water, turned around and put them in the back of the truck, ready to drink for the prisoners on the road.
At this time, Joyner slapped her forehead and suddenly remembered something. She immediately walked towards Brother Hui’s body and picked up his gun with her toes.
She wiped off the blood and took the gun in her hand. With just one look, she realized that it was a homemade weapon, not a standard one.
From the parts of the gun body to the grip and trigger, traces of being pieced together from other weapons can also be seen. Such a weapon should be easy to copy if you can find the blueprints and specialized craftsmen.
Joyner stared at the gun, pondered for a moment, and strode away.
Then he started wandering around other cars, looking here and there.
