Chapter 145 Traveling through time and space
[Operation ends, perfect tactics]

[Node settlement: Fantasy +2]

[Drop extraction in progress...]

[No drops in this exploration. ]

"Okay, it's normal that the normal nodes didn't drop."

Feng Xue really wanted to spread out his hands to hide his embarrassment, but unfortunately, he had no hands.

After slightly adjusting his mindset, he turned his attention to the next branch. Among the three branches extending from the [Abandoned Car in the Wilderness] node, one was connected to the skeleton next to it that seemed to be waiting for redemption.

"In other words, it is essentially the same as the previous fishbone diagram, but the complexity is too much to fit in a row, so it turns into a circle? If the basic rules are the same and there are still fixed nodes, then there should be about five circles of these nodes?"

Feng Xue was thinking in his mind, and observing three routes, two ordinary battles, and one unexpected encounter. The other unexpected encounter was connected to the skeleton node waiting for redemption.

Looking at the two battle nodes, [You discovered a group of masked men] and [A fool who fell into a trap is asking you for help], Feng Xue thought for a while and decided to click on the unexpected encounter of [A caravan is moving slowly forward].

The node was triggered. On the barren Gobi Desert, a thing that looked a bit like a caravan was being pulled by several huge horses that were two times taller than heavy draft horses. Several men dressed rather strangely were surrounding the car. Next to this picture, a line of text unfolded -

[On the road, a caravan is moving slowly forward. You are setting foot in the wilderness for the first time and obviously do not know the rules of this land. The guards of the caravan are wary of your mystery and silence, and your arrogance has obviously angered them.]

【A difficult battle.】

"Oh, no, why am I arrogant? And what is mysterious and silent? Didn't you meet by chance? How come there is no option? Can't I hide from you?"

As the picture unfolded, Feng Xue felt sick. After entering this pigeon, he had only passed three nodes, but both of them mentioned arrogance. This made him wonder if this was the side effect of [Hermit].

After all, seeing through the content of the node obviously corresponds to "being good at seeing through secrets", so does the inability to communicate correspond to "having to learn to enjoy loneliness"?
Of course, all of this is just speculation. Maybe the ability of this new pigeon to see node content is a basic function?
While he was daydreaming, the picture had already been rendered from 2D to 3D. Feng Xue was standing on the Gobi Desert, looking at the caravan members who had raised their weapons with a very subtle expression.

His control over his body made him immediately realize that the weight he was carrying was wrong. He then found that he had a metal stick wrapped in rags and simply polished hanging around his waist. The weight coming from behind him told him that he was carrying a lot of things at the moment.

"It looks like an axle or something like that... So it was taken from the car by the previous node? Then the things behind it should also be supplies seized from the car and those dead people?"

Feng Xue had a very quick mind and immediately realized the current situation. Just like when exploring his previous life's resume, the character would grow over time. In this wasteland exploration, in addition to the collectibles, he would also gain some things that were not considered collectibles.

These thoughts only lasted for a moment, because the caravan members rushed up with their weapons in hand. "Fuck, I was wondering why your posture was so weird, are you really using your guns as sticks? Have you run out of bullets or do you really not know how to use them?"

Looking at the caravan members who were holding guns and attacking with mahogany butts, Feng Xue's subtle expression completely turned into speechlessness, but the next moment, the contempt he felt for "primitive people using guns as sticks" instantly disappeared, because this group of people was very strong!

There were clearly only three people rushing up, and their speed and strength were only above average. But at the moment when the steel sticks in his hands came into contact with the "gun sticks" in their hands, the feeling of the force being deflected immediately made Feng Xue realize that this group of weird guys were not ordinary "primitive people" at all.

Although the rifles in their hands could almost be considered strange weapons, they were quite skilled in using them. Not to mention hitting, swinging and pushing with the butt of the rifle, they could even use the bolt to lock Feng Xue's weapon!
"Wow, this has developed a unique routine!"

Although he had never seen this kind of skill before, military combat is ultimately the technique of attacking the enemy and avoiding the attack. Feng Xue pulled back the iron rod in time, twisted his body violently, and threw away the backpack behind him that was filled with who knows how many things.

A package weighing at least 30 kilograms fell directly on one of them. Feng Xue, who got rid of the weight, increased his speed dramatically. He grabbed the butt of the gun with one hand and planned to seize the gun in a regular bayonet posture. But at this moment, the man who was wrestling with Feng Xue showed a strange smile.

"Boiled!"

Although he didn't know why the other party was laughing, Feng Xue knew that nothing good would happen when the enemy laughed. But at this time there was another person attacking him from the side, and if he dodged to the side, he would probably be hit on the head.

Although he knew that anyone who could match him in terms of skills would be familiar with the common sense of "hitting someone from behind" (Note ①), in order to avoid damage that might come from an unknown source, Feng Xue still retreated quickly.

It was at this moment when he took a step back that the gun went off.

"boom!"

Feng Xue, who originally thought that someone had shot him from behind, only felt a tightness in his chest. Looking at the muzzle of the gun from which smoke was emitting, Feng Xue realized that the person who had shot him was actually the person in front of him.

"Zhao! Use the bullets as propellants to increase the impact force, right?" Feng Xue took a deep breath to adjust his disordered breathing caused by the blow to his chest. At the same time, he was thankful that his Heart-Questioner's peak structure technique could still take effect in his dream state. If it weren't for the strengthened structure to offset part of the damage, he would have broken at least two ribs!

However, this fighting style is only for killing at first sight. If Feng Xue misses the first strike, he will not give him another chance. He casually throws the heavy metal stick in his hand aside, and Feng Xue lowers his body and rushes towards the man who is raising the stick to hit him.

Although he was surprised that the boss's attack failed, the man sneered when he saw that this idiot who didn't learn his lesson wanted to snatch his "assault baton". He gently turned on the safety with his fingers, moved his fingertips lightly, and relaxed his wrist. With the touch of the silk thread on the ring being pulled back, the image of this stupid thief's brain bursting appeared in his mind.

But the next moment, the "impact stick" in his hand suddenly became lighter. The impact stick in his hand, which was blessed with "divine power" and could easily smash boulders, was left with only half a "heat pipe"!
"Sorcery! Sorcery!"

"You monster! [flower-growing foul language]!"
