[Extra 17. Brave New World (5)]
She was indeed lucky, and soon found a small iron box under the seat of Brother Hui’s car.
Joyner picked up the box and felt that the box was heavy in her hand, and there was the sound of metal colliding from time to time. She smiled evilly, broke the lock without saying a word, opened the box, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
In addition to the expected bullets, there was also an incompletely assembled weapon in the box.
The moment she saw the huge magazine, Joyner understood that this gun was used to fire cracking bullets!
She also saw several “large” bullets lying in the box, with red metal trim surrounding the shells. With her knowledge of firearms, she knew that metal casings were bullets containing multiple pellets.
It’s a shotgun bullet, no mistake.
She picked up one and looked at it carefully, and found that the workmanship was meticulous. There were traces of threads grinded by a lathe on the shell, and there was also a mottled mark. It was dark brown and looked like an upside-down steam hammer. A line of small words could be vaguely seen below, but most of it It was so worn that she could only make out the word “mine” and the word “city”.
Joyner’s heart trembled, and she checked other parts of the weapon: the barrel was made of high-strength molybdenum-chromium steel with exquisite workmanship, the inner bore was chrome-plated, and the exterior was slightly phosphated. There was an interface device above the gun box that could be used to install a scope.
Is it actually standard equipment?
The steam hammer on the mottled logo represents large-scale mechanized stamping equipment. There are some words after the words “mine” and “city” that have long been unrecognizable, but they are obviously the name of the manufacturer…
None of this is new to Joyner. To be able to make such sophisticated weapons, one must have corresponding equipment and a very high level of craftsmanship. It seems to represent that the spiritual inheritance of the pre-civilization era is still continuing.
Are there any specialized arsenals in this era?
So, where is this place?
Joyner was shocked!
At the same time, there were countless questions in her mind. She must go and see that place.
“Let’s deal with the present first and then talk about it.” Joyner came back from her endless reverie and shook her head slowly. “Well, I wonder how powerful this weapon is? You should assemble it and try it out.”
Just do it. It only took her less than five minutes to assemble the shotgun. She held it up and played with it repeatedly. She pushed a single-ended bullet up,
but she hesitated. There were only a few large bullets left. She thought that they should be used at a critical moment, so she gave up the idea of test firing for the time being.
“Forget it! No matter how powerful this gun is, it will always be useful. Let’s take it away first…”
Joyner threw the weapon in her hand into the iron box and carried it to the cab of the truck, wanting to put the box directly Stuff it under the seat.
But at this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in her mind. For some reason, she took out the “spray gun” by accident, loaded four single-point bullets into the magazine, and pinned it directly to the strap on the side of her right leg. Bring it.
Such an important weapon cannot be thrown away casually.
Finally, she raised her head and glanced at the reflector. She was dressed in a nondescript manner. She shook her head unsatisfactoryly and began to look around for something.
“Yes, I have it!”
She smiled slightly, walked to another pickup truck, made a sound, and tore off a piece of canvas covering the truck bed. After the canvas fell to the ground, she realized that it was actually a tent.
Joyner didn’t waste any time. She immediately picked up the canvas fingers and used them as scissors. She pulled and pulled them into a cloak, and then tied two ropes to one end to tie the cooked leather shoulder armor. He randomly found a few rivets, used his strong strength to press the rivets into the edge of the shoulder armor, and made several hidden buckles.
Joyner then put on her cloak with satisfaction, hid her red hair in the hood, and tilted her head to admire it for a long time.
The cloak was wide, covering most of her body, and some of the feminine features of her body looked less conspicuous. At this moment, she transformed into a more down-to-earth “sand bandit”.

cOm
was ready, she jumped into the cab of the truck again and started the car immediately.
The heavy roar of the engine sounded, and Joyner lightly stepped on the accelerator. The steel behemoth’s body trembled violently for a few times, and then it roared and slowly drove out of the place.
She could roughly judge the direction and distance of the convoy from the previous route and speed of the bandits. There are almost no identifiable objects in the wilderness, but luckily there is still sunlight that has not changed for hundreds of millions of years, which can help her navigate in the sky.
According to her estimation, if the direction of travel is correct, she should be able to see the legendary human settlement – Hidden Sand Castle within two or three days.
As the tanker truck drove in the wilderness, Joyner kept thinking about her next move, but she didn’t know what else she could expect in the future.
She made up her mind to pretend to be a lone bandit or a mercenary. After arriving at Hidden Sand Castle, she would first release the prisoners and then gather information there to see the situation.
The sun sets below the horizon, and night is about to fall again.
Because there were no roads in the desolate wilderness and there were many potholes, her speed was not fast. The various instrument panels in the car were completely out of order, and the needles always stayed at the moment they were broken.
She estimated that she had been driving continuously for seven or eight hours, but she had only traveled less than a hundred kilometers.
Joyner felt a little irritable as she saw the afterglow of the sunset gradually setting behind her. For fear of getting lost, I drove for a while and found a flat depression to stop the truck.
She saw some building ruins on a deserted slope not far away. It looked like it was probably a long-abandoned village. Joyner didn’t want to stay in the cab all the time, so she thought about it and decided to go there to see if she could spend the night there and cook something to eat.
Along the way, she had seen several similar abandoned houses. It was estimated that the original owners had either been robbed by bandits, killed, or had been forced to move away.
She looked back and saw that the little boy looked sleepy.
Unlike others, the boy didn’t say anything to himself along the way. He didn’t cry or struggle, as if he was used to it.
Joyner knew that he was just using his will to keep his eyelids from closing.
But he is a child after all, and now he can no longer hold on and is about to fall asleep.
“Yeah, ah -!”
However, when Joyner was about to jump out of the car, the little boy suddenly woke up for some reason, opened his eyes, and shouted: “No! Don’t go out! Don’t go out at night!”
When Joyna heard the noise, she turned around and tilted her head to look. She saw the little boy staring at the headlights with fear in his eyes.
“Well, have you finally spoken?”
Joyner walked over and put her arms on the back of the chair, frowned, stared into his eyes curiously and asked, “You just said you won’t go out at night? Why can’t you go out at night?”
Joyner’s figure was half hidden in the night, half illuminated by the floodlight of the car lights, and her brown-green cloak turned black. When the little boy saw her, his expression suddenly became dull again and he stopped talking.
“Hey, what, you don’t want to talk to me?”
Joyner saw the despair after extreme fear in his eyes, and asked a few more casually, but still no response.
“Hmph – you can obviously speak…why did you suddenly become mute?”
“If you don’t say anything, I will throw you down directly!” Joyner glanced at her viciously, her face turned ferocious, and she was about to reach out.
