Give them a little funny shock

Chapter 742: 827 Outsiders (I)

On the outskirts of the Dead Sea, a knight wearing a black hooded cloak is riding a strange-looking mount across the vast desert.

The knight was carrying a shotgun on his back. It looked very simple and one could tell at a glance that it was something made by human hands.

However, even though it is hand-rubbed, this pump-action shotgun still has all the functions it should have.

The shotgun's handle was made of wood, with numerous mottled scratches and the paint peeling off in many places.

But it can be seen that it has been well maintained, and the barrel, trigger and receiver are all clean.

The knight wore a gas mask on his face and his entire body was tightly wrapped.

There was a hose connected to the gas mask, which led to a small box hanging at his lower back.

He also had a pistol holster hanging on his right waist, and five magazines inserted in the box on his front abdomen.

There was also a box on his left belt, which contained a row of seven rounds, a total of four rows of small boxes specially used to hold round-head bullets.

This box seemed to be made of special animal skin. When magnified, it looked like layers of shields stacked one on top of another.

The mount he was riding looked very much like a dinosaur, a type of dinosaur that lived 65 million years ago.

But unlike the feathered dinosaurs that were later restored, this 'dinosaur' had keratinous scales like a lizard, like the velociraptors in old dinosaur movies.

If you ignore the crown on its head.

This 'Velociraptor' is about 2.7 meters tall, with two very long front claws growing on both sides of the body and five fingers, which are very similar in structure to human hands.

Therefore, it is not difficult to guess its function. It seems to be specialized for grasping, and its fingers must be very flexible.

Apart from the crown-like organ on the top of its head, the general shape of its head is very similar to that of dinosaurs in old movies. It can even be said to be a replica of the Velociraptor in those movies.

However, the teeth in its mouth indicate that it was a herbivore.

The mount was clad in heavy leather armor, with backpacks of varying sizes hanging on both sides.

But even so, it can still maintain a very high running speed, carrying its owner as it runs all the way across the vast desert.

In this desert, you can see some very modern buildings everywhere, but their surfaces have been severely weathered and decayed. They just lie quietly in the desert for who knows how many years.

Perhaps it is telling people who enter this desert how prosperous this place once was?

The rooftops standing crookedly in the desert, the human-shaped statues lying in the desert with half of their bodies exposed, and the large cluster of high-rise buildings were buried in the desert, with only the top floors exposed.

The tall buildings with exaggerated shapes and the statues that have survived the ravages of time tell them of the glory of this place as a human city. The steel fragments scattered in the desert and the wreckage of large aircraft everywhere tell them that a war has broken out here.

The knight rode his mount into a cluster of buildings. The area was covered with yellow sand, with only a few building ruins exposed. Many of the buildings were actually the tops of buildings buried deep underground.

The knight rode the dinosaur and stopped in front of an extremely tall building. Although it was called "extraordinarily tall", its exposed height was actually only about seven or eight meters.

He gently squeezed the reins in his hand and called the mount with words, signaling it to stop. The mount was very docile and obedient, and stopped immediately after receiving the knight's order.

The knight climbed down from his mount, and his boots immediately sank into the sand, nearly swallowing up his entire calves.

The knight pulled his foot out with all his strength, while cautiously testing the ground in front of the building.

This area is very dangerous. Other places are okay, but the closer you get to the central building, the less safe the ground is. There are quicksands and large carnivorous creatures hidden under the quicksand everywhere. Once you fall into it, you're done.

However, this is also a treasure land. It was a large city among humans before the era, and there are a lot of resources in the city.

Steel, alloys, rubber products, and even rare pre-era technology are all available here. If you are lucky, you can even find some pre-era food.

Yes, there are places called "freezers" that hold a large amount of pre-Apocalyptic food.

They use a super technology function from before the epoch, and they can still operate even today, thousands of years later. The temperature inside is extremely low, and once you enter, you will immediately turn into a sculpture. But inside is the treasure that everyone dreams of -

seed.

Of course, seeds, pre-war people and the like were still too far away for someone like him who came from a small village.

The knights naturally did not come here expecting to find these things. Even if they found them, it would not be a good thing for them, but would only bring them disaster.

Moreover, their village itself hides a treasure. A pre-war person, a woman called "Yulia". It was found by the village chief's daughter Uka during an expedition in the wild.

Wuka is the next village chief. It’s not that the position is hereditary or anything like that. She is indeed very capable and everyone hopes that she can become the next village chief.

But she herself was not happy about it.

The knight patted his mount's head, and the mount licked his hand affectionately with its tongue.

The knight found a notebook made of straw paper and a pen made of special wood and animal bones in the bag on its side, and began to write.

This is a pre-Christian language. He didn't learn it very well, but he was still able to communicate and write. It's just that the characters are ugly.

After finishing writing, he put the notebook and pen back, patted his mount's head and gave it a few instructions.

His voice sounded a bit old, and he used a very strange language, which was similar to the pre-war Norse language, but many of the words and pronunciations were completely different from Norse, and it was also mixed with some Latin and Chinese syllables.

"Cha Cha, you go back first. I won't go back. There shouldn't be any sandstorms in the next two days. If nothing unexpected happens, they will come back to pick me up."

It was very human, and it seemed to understand the knight's words. It licked the knight's mask with its tongue again, then turned around and left quickly.

Looking at Cha Cha going away, the knight put down the shotgun on his back and held it in his hand. He also had a long knife hanging on his waist, which he also pulled out.

He used the long knife in his left hand to test the sand in front of him and walked towards the building cautiously.
