Heavenly Calamity - Chapter 185
[Chapter 31 Blood Tide]
The scene of the outpost is completely presented, about one-fifth of the bloody plain. In addition to the huge waiting room, there are also many earthen houses and wells. There is no need to worry about living and drinking water, but the food needs to be solved by yourself.
People have limited backpack space to carry food for several days at most.
Humans cannot gain a foothold in the Bloody Plains without a way to obtain food from the wild.
Traveling to and from Camp Dawn is too expensive for large groups.
Small groups faced difficulties leaving the outpost.
The outside is full of scavengers known as “wilderness bandits”!
There is no way to deliver food directly from the camp.
Liu Shiyan asked, “Is there water in the well?”
The fat man ran over immediately, picked up the tattered bucket, threw it into the well and pulled out half of it.
Although there is not much water in the well, it is indeed not a dry well, but the water quality is not ideal, and the red suspended matter makes the water light red.
The fat man picked up the bucket and took a sip, but the result was directly sprayed out.
Lei Ming asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Bah! What kind of stinky water is this, it’s worse than urine!”
“It’s good to have water to drink!” Lei Ming roughly counted, there are more than 30 wells, “There seems to be a lot of monsters outside, and there are many gatherers in our team. By hunting monsters, we can barely solve the problem of food. ”
That being said, the situation remains difficult.
There are more than a thousand people in the entire team, even if Zhang Mu is added, they have the gathering technique.
For a monster, it is good to collect two or three servings of food. How can this situation meet the needs?
Bringing your own food can last for three days, and during this period, you will continue to obtain food from the wild, and it will last for two days at most.
The food will be out of food for at most a week, and then the division must be returned to the camp.
Zhang Mu came out and said to everyone, “Look for a place to stay, and don’t go out if you have nothing to do. If you hear any noise, please close the doors and windows first. As far as I know, there is a natural disaster called blood tide on the bloody plain. When the outbreak occurs, people are outside, and there is no doubt that they will die!”
“What is a blood wave?”
“A common insect plague in the Bloody Plains, I bought related materials in the library yesterday.” Lei Ming had to admire Zhang Mu, such hidden materials can be found, “There is a thing called blood locust in this place, don’t eat it Grass, only eat meat. The blood tide actually refers to the plague of locusts, which are not ordinary locusts, but an ordinary monster.”
The mourning dog said, “Why don’t you kill thousands or tens of thousands to level up?”
“The blood locust does not exceed level 10 and cannot gain experience. If it is attacked by hundreds or thousands of locusts at the same time, the mage shield will not work well, and it will turn into a pile of bones in the blink of an eye. The blood wave is composed of more than one million locusts, which can almost Let’s get together”
The fat man burst out with a foul language: “So much? It’s a fool! What’s the situation now, can locusts eat us?”
The camp library has very little records of the bloody plains, and Lei Ming really did his homework before he came.
Zhang Mu was very satisfied: “There are no creatures on the Bloody Plains to mess with. So keep it tight, especially Fatty, you have the most meat!”
“You can’t die from eating fat man’s meat!”
“Don’t say a few words.” Sanggou kicked the fat man, “Looking for a house.”
Zhang Mu said to Liu Shiyan and Ye Qianqiu: “The heads of the regiments are here, and we will discuss the action plan within a few days.”
Several people chose an earthen house, and the head of the regiment and a few elders went in for a meeting. The ground inside the house was full of potholes, with empty walls and no furniture.
“The environment here is worse than I imagined.” Zhang Mu put the map on the ground and spread it out, “No matter how much, let’s start directly.”
Liu Shiyan’s bright eyes flashed a bit of brilliance: “This is…”
Zhang Mu explained: “The regional map of the Bloody Plain.”
Liu Shiyan put away the bow, knelt down on one knee and leaned over to check the map.
Liu Shiyan’s eyes widened as he looked, the map was very detailed, the hills and rivers were marked, and the types and distribution of monsters were intuitively displayed on it.
The bloody plain is really dangerous. If you explore it by yourself, I don’t know how many people will die.
“Where did you get this map?”
“That’s not the point, our manpower is far from enough, not enough to be lower than the alien attack,
The priority is to stand firm and persuade more mercenaries to come.
”
“What do you want to do?” When Liu Shuiyan bowed her head, she suddenly found that there was a little spring light looming in her neckline. She quickly covered her chest. Seeing that Zhang Mu didn’t notice, she immediately added, “Those cowards are not easy to persuade.”
Zhang Mu said: “Benefits can make people crazy. The best way is to capture a Slaughtering Secret Realm, then record a video and post it on the forum, so that everyone can see the harvest of the Slaughtering Secret Realm.”
Liu Shuiyan frowned slightly and asked, “Are you sure?”
“How do you know if you don’t try it?” Zhang Mu pointed to the map and said, “The nearest small secret realm has three [Fallen Mage Castle], [City of Blood Corpse], and [Monster Forest], which can be reached directly by train, and the small secret realm is limited. The number is 10-20 people, and there is no foreign participation, we might as well give it a try.”
Cheng Bo scratched his head: “Which one is suitable?”
Zhang Mu pretended to be embarrassed: “Because of the lack of information, it is impossible to make an accurate judgment. However, from the name of the secret realm [Fallen Mage Castle] is to perform a mission in a castle, while [City of Blood Corpse] and [Monster Forest] are separate In a city and a forest. The former map is smaller, easier to explore, and probably simpler, you might as well start with [Fallen Mage Castle].”
“The biggest trouble we face is the scavengers outside. The scavengers are staring at them. It is difficult for our mercenaries to go out hunting smoothly, and those who come from this station are easily ambushed.”
Ye Qianqiu snorted: “Why don’t you find it out and take it all in one pot?”
“The scavengers do not have a fixed settlement, so it is impossible to live together. If one group of scavengers is attacked, the other scavengers will definitely support them. There are not many of them. With more than a thousand of us, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with. ”
“Then what?”
Lei Ming suggested: “We can send elite assassins and killers to assassinate the lone scavengers. After all, scavengers are intelligent races. When they find that members near the outpost have been assassinated in large numbers, they will definitely withdraw the nearby forces and win them first. There is a certain living space to ensure that there will be food supply for a few days, and when the people from the camp come over and have enough strength, they are considering to completely eliminate the scavengers.”
“You can try.” Zhang Mu nodded: “Then let Scorpion and Wang Ling organize a team of killers and assassins to start action tonight.”
Several people are discussing plans for the next few days.
There was a piercing siren outside.
“What happened again?”
Zhang Mu pushed open the door and went out to check what was going on. The dull voice of a guard robot came from the loudspeaker: “Warning! The blood wave is approaching!”
“What? Blood Tide!” Zhang Mu knew that similar natural disasters occurred frequently on the Bloody Plains, so he didn’t want to run into it so soon, and immediately shouted, “Everyone hurry up and hide in the house, close the doors and windows!”
There was a buzzing sound in the distance. It was an insect-like creature. The sound of wings flapping at a high speed was more like locking 100 million mosquitoes in a small secret room with people. The ears were full of buzzing sounds, making people feel tired.
Zhang Mu shouted with all his strength, and the humming outside was so loud that it almost drowned out his voice.
The blood tide was extremely fast, Zhang Mucai hid in the room, the sky was obviously dark, and the entire outpost was shrouded in a red cloud.
It was red outside, and the whole world was filled with locust swarms.
Although I can’t see the outside with my own eyes, I can feel the outside scene.
Suddenly, an old broken brick on the roof was smashed, revealing a small vacancy.
Zhang Mu’s face changed suddenly: “Block it!”
Lei Ming raised his shield and went to plug the leak. Hundreds of locusts rushed in from the gap, and the gap became about the size of a head.
Finally, I can see the appearance of blood locusts. They are called locusts, but they are very different from locusts. They are only slightly smaller than the palm of their hands.
Cheng Bo took out a talisman, put his hand on the gap, and turned into a blue barrier to seal the gap.
Lei Ming took the opportunity to climb up the house and blocked it with a shield to prevent more locusts from entering. Several people had blood locusts more or less on their bodies. Zhang Mu felt that his neck and face had been bitten off a few pieces of flesh, and Lei Ming was surrounded by dozens of blood locusts. , but even if you use a tempered skin, you can temporarily resist it for a while.

Zhang Mu drew out his double swords, the sharp blue sword beams swept across, and the blood locusts were smashed one by one in the air. Wang Ling threw out a large number of flying needles, killing dozens of locusts. The locusts in the house were finally cleaned up.
Several people were bitten with blood all over their faces. I couldn’t believe it. The weak insects were so cruel and bloodthirsty.
The blood wave didn’t last long, about ten minutes passed, and there was a stench in the air. On the ground and on the roof, there were a lot of blood locusts left by the blood wave. When they saw the creatures, they rushed towards them fiercely, but the number was not large. Too much, can’t pose a threat to people.
This blood wave killed 22 people, mostly because the doors and windows were not closed properly, or there were loopholes in the house, allowing large groups of blood locusts to swarm in.
Most of the armor of the deceased was complete, but the flesh on the whole body was eaten up, and the death was very miserable.
Liu Shishaxiu was bitten several times on the neck, the blood stained the breastplate red, the plump twin peaks not only rose and fell with his breathing, but his eyebrows stood on end with anger. Among the deceased were many women who were Fengyue mercenaries.
“We should be glad that we encountered a blood wave at the station, not in the wild!” Zhang Mu stepped on a blood locust, looked up at the red sky and said, “Once the blood wave passes, it will be difficult to find food nearby. Go challenge the [Fallen Mage Castle]!”
The blood tide will empty nearby creatures, and the mercenaries will be stagnant for up to three days, otherwise they will face starvation.
Zhang Mu intends to seize the time to challenge the [Fallen Mage Castle]. This is the only secret realm he is familiar with in the Bloody Plain. Although the difficulty is not low, with his experience and strong team, it should not be difficult to pass smoothly.
Because of the blood wave, there is no need to worry about aliens coming over, and other mercenaries ambushing scavengers near the station.
The number of scavengers, the less environmental pressure the station faces
