Becoming Stronger After Death: I Keep Seeking Death in the World of the Universe.

Chapter 130 Radiation Storm and Cockroach Man

Chapter 130 Radiation Storm and Cockroach Man
Radiation storms should be a common natural disaster in this wasteland.

Xu Wang didn't know the specific formation conditions.

Over the past month, I have only heard about it occasionally in the Sanfan Tavern in Bing Town.

While radiation storms have the destructive power of ordinary storm disasters, they also contain large amounts of radioactive elements that are difficult for ordinary people to resist.

If ordinary people are in a radiation storm for a long time, the probability of turning into radiated corpses will undoubtedly increase greatly.

Therefore, whenever a storm comes.

Everyone will stay indoors until the storm passes.

I heard from the bartender at the Sanfan Tavern that in addition to radiation storms, there is occasionally radioactive rain in the wasteland.

A large amount of radioactive rain falls to the ground, and the radioactive elements in the rainy area will also increase greatly.

Even pollute the surrounding water resources.

When Xu Wang learned about the natural disasters unique to these wastelands, he finally understood why 213 years had passed.

The radiation in the wasteland has not decreased yet.

Even the creatures on the wasteland have begun to gradually "evolve" and adapt to life under radiation.

It is no wonder that water resources and food plants that mutated after the nuclear war and can grow under radiation are so scarce and precious.

Faced with this natural disaster.

Xu Wang doesn’t have any good solution at the moment.

Now open the door and leave the safe house.

Xu Wang was mainly looking to die.

It has been a while in the wasteland world. Although Xu Wang’s logistics base has not been fully built, the Horseshoe Safe House can play a certain logistical role.

So Xu Wang is already prepared to embark on his next journey to another world.

Just after he went out, Xu Wang was worried that Walli and Tiezhu would follow him out and get hurt, so he closed the door again.

"Dong dong!"

Xu Wang knocked on the door and shouted loudly, "Don't worry about me! You know I'm immortal. I just went out to chase the wind!"

After saying that, Xu Wang pushed out an old-fashioned bicycle from the side, pedaled on the ground twice, and then rode on it.

I pedaled my bike towards the center of the storm.

The location of the storm is probably to the west of Bing Town.

The closer you are to the center of the storm.

The Geiger counter on Xu Wang’s left arm’s personal terminal began to beep more and more rapidly.

This means the radiation concentration over there is very high!

Xu Wang wanted to see if he would also become a radiated corpse if he was exposed to too high a level of radiation.

Or just die directly?
Not sure, need to experiment.

Anyway, Xu Wang is not afraid of turning into a radiated corpse.

It might also provide him with a few attribute points.

While pedaling his bicycle and hurrying on his way, Xu Wang was not idle either.

As mentioned before, Xu Wang’s nuclear explosion ability is similar to some kind of spell that requires energy to drive.

Although the external manifestations are not much different from a real nuclear explosion.

But it's not physics per se.

Therefore, Xu Wang conducted a special experiment.

With the nuclear explosion energy protecting his body, the nuclear radiation from the outside world did not cause any harm to Xu Wang.

But when Xu Wang cancels the energy protection, he will be harmed by nuclear radiation like a normal creature.

After a long time, even Xu Wang, who had a 19-point physique, felt obviously uncomfortable.

I was riding my bike when I suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous!
In addition, we are now getting closer and closer to the center of the radiation storm.

Xu Wang was blown by the strong wind, the handlebars of his bike tilted, and he crashed directly into a dead tree beside the road!

"Dangdang!"

Xu Wang fell to the ground along with his bicycle, and he was unable to get up for a while.

"vomit!!!"

Xu Wang, who was lying on the ground, couldn't help but vomit his breakfast due to the strong feeling of nausea.

Looking at the pool of vomit on the ground, Xu Wang felt his mouth was sour and his throat was burning.

"Wow! This is nuclear radiation, it's amazing."

Xu Wang touched his body and couldn't help sighing.

Picking up the old bicycle, Xu Wang rode it and rushed to the center of the storm again.

He really wanted to see what was at the center of the radiation storm.

But the wind was too strong.

After riding for another three minutes, Xu Wang couldn't even ride the bike anymore.

The strong wind made it impossible for him to keep his balance.

A large amount of sand and gravel blown up by the strong wind kept hitting Xu Wang with a "crackling" sound.

The beating caused Xu Wang's exposed skin to feel painful.

It hurts even more when the wind and sand blow into your eyes.

Only then did Xu Wang realize his lack of experience.

He should have tucked a protective mask into his fanny pack.

At least this way you won't be blinded by the wind and sand.

Fortunately, Xu Wang acquired the mental scanning skill from Professor X, and now is the time when it comes in handy.

Invisible and intangible mental power fluctuations spread out from Xu Wang’s mind!
Centered on Xu Wang.

The scenery within a radius of 1.3 kilometers appeared clearly in Xu Wang's mind in real time like a 3D map.

With the mental scan, Xu Wang can continue on his journey without using his eyes at all.

This is even more convenient than using your eyes.

But the closer you get to the center of the storm, the stronger the wind and sand will be.

Even if Xu Wang used his mental power to scan over there, he could only see a large amount of rapidly rotating sand and dust.

Suddenly, Xu Wang seemed to have discovered something in the wind and sand.

He uttered "Huh".

Focus your attention on a roadside newsstand a few dozen meters away from you.

There was actually a figure moving there.

"Hey! Come here! Come over here! Come here!"

The wind and sand carried the shouting of a figure from afar.

But the shouting sound was blown a little indistinct by the howling wind.

Fortunately, Xu Wang used his mental power to "see" it.

The 14-point perception allows Xu Wang to hear again.

Picking up the bicycle, Xu Wang trotted towards the man.

The strong wind made his body stagger.

The sand and gravel kept hitting the bicycle frame, making a "ding-dang-dang" sound.

Under Xu Wang's mental scan, he could see it clearly.

His bicycle was covered with dents.

We were getting closer to the newsstand standing in the storm.

The people in the pavilion seemed to have seen Xu Wang as well.

He yelled again.

Then he threw something towards Xu Wang with force.

The thing was blown a little askew by the wind.

It's still a few meters away from Xu Wang.

But Xu Wang already knew what he had thrown over.

That's a stone.

There is a hemp rope tied to the stone.

Xu Wang understood that the other party was throwing the rope over to help him.

Even though he came out to die.

But Xu Wang was also very curious as to why the man was here in such a big radiation storm.

The newsstand didn't look like his home.

Picking up the rope on the ground, Xu Wang bit it tightly with his mouth, then threw away the bicycle and lay down there.

It's too windy and sandy outside.

The man in the newsstand was wearing a protective mask, making it difficult to see what was happening in the dust.

I just felt the hemp rope in my hand being pulled, and I knew that the unlucky guy on the other side had grabbed the rope.

So start pulling hard!
But the man was a little confused as to why the rope was so heavy.

It feels like the person opposite is playing tug-of-war with me.

He couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he could only grit his teeth, stand in a horse stance, and use greater strength to retract the rope little by little.

As more and more hemp ropes hung in circles under his feet, an unidentified humanoid creature was finally pulled into the newsstand by the man!
Just looking at the human-shaped figure on the ground, flapping its wings like a big fish, both Niu and Hu were dumbfounded!
"Congratulations! You caught a big fish!"

Xu Wang imitated the Magikarp, flapping his wings on the ground non-stop, and even did not forget to encourage the already dumbfounded Niu Hu.

Yes, although this guy was fully armed and wearing a protective mask, not a single bit of skin was exposed.

But from his body language, it can be seen that Niu Hu has no experience in dealing with a lunatic like Xu Wang.

Until Xu Wang kept thrashing around, and suddenly a stream of blood started flowing from his nose.

The nosebleed started very suddenly, and once it started, there was no sign of stopping.

Large drops of blood fell on the floor and mixed with the sand.

"what?"

Xu Wang also noticed this and stopped flapping his arms.

"Your radiation level is too high, and I don't have any radiation neutralizer left. Sorry."

A muffled voice came from under the protective mask.

Xu Wang withdrew his mental scan and stood up from the ground.

Listening to the whistling wind outside the house, he took a serious look at the guy in front of him for the first time.

This guy is very tall and strong, about 1.9 meters tall.

He was wearing leather armor and a bulletproof steel plate on his chest.

The leather armor comes with a hood with a steel helmet.

There is also a goggles-like design on the hood.

I guess this goggles with orange lenses will come in handy after taking off the protective mask.

On his back, he was carrying a square iron backpack.

His weapons should be inside.

What slightly concerned Xu Wang was that

This guy really doesn't show any skin at all, he is covered up very tightly.

I don't know if he usually wears this.

Or it’s because of today’s radiation storm.

"You stay here for now. The storm won't last long. When the wind is a little weaker, you can go to Duobao Town with me. They have radiation abatement agents for sale there."

Niu Hu kindly reminded Xu Wang again.

But Xu Wang could tell that this guy seemed a little anxious, as if he was in a hurry.

It's just because of this storm that we have to stay here temporarily.

Xu Wang wanted to speak.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his mouth was bleeding.

His tongue pressed against his teeth, and even his teeth began to loosen.

It seems that he stayed under high concentration of radiation for too long, and his body has been damaged more seriously.

"You don't have to go to Duobao Town."

Niu Hu saw Xu Wang's condition and said frankly: "You are dead. Unless you are very rich, a bag of radiation neutralizer can't save you. But I see you don't have any money either."

Xu Wang scratched his head. "Why is it certain death? Shouldn't I transform into a Scorched Corpse first?"

Upon hearing this, Niu Hu looked at Xu Wang in surprise and asked, "Do you want to become a radiated corpse?"

Xu Wang nodded: "I do."

Of course he wants to get attribute points for free.

Niu Hu's tone sounded somewhat happy, but then he became depressed again. He waved his hand and said, "You won't become a radiated corpse like this. You will only be killed by the radiation."

"When a human turns into a Scorched Zombie, the radiation concentration in the body accumulates slowly, and it takes a period of adaptation. If you are exposed to too much radiation in such a short period of time, your body will not be able to withstand it and will collapse."

"And the chance of becoming a Scorched is low."

"Most people can't resist it, and will eventually become unconscious radiated corpses. Even if they really become radiated corpses, they have to inject radiation-removing agents for a long time, otherwise they will gradually lose their sanity and become real radiated corpses."

At this point, Niu Hu shook his head and said, "In short, the Scorched Corpse Man is not a good thing. Don't think too highly of it."

After listening to this, Xu Wang felt a little regretful.

The attribute points I got were gone.

Niu Hu saw Xu Wang's expression and hesitated for a while before giving him a piece of information: "I heard that some doctors have developed a panacea that they claim can cure all diseases."

"Broken arms and legs, just connect the broken limbs and inject the panacea, and they will heal quickly."

"But that drug only turns people into scorched corpses. Whether they can retain their self-awareness depends on luck."

Xu Wang understood as soon as he heard it. This big guy was sharing information with him.

He sighed and said, "I didn't expect that there is such a kind-hearted person like you in this wasteland."

Niu Hu felt a little embarrassed by Xu Wang's praise.

He raised his hand and scratched his helmet.

"Well, to express my gratitude, I will also give you some information."

Xu Wang looked serious.

When Niu Hu heard this, his expression under the mask became serious.

Intelligence is something that is extremely valuable in the hands of some people.

Xu Wang then asked, "Do you know the Horseshoe Train Station?"

Niu Hu grew up in Liumu City and was quite familiar with the surrounding situation. He nodded and said, "I know. There is a garbage robot that picks up garbage there every day."

"I don't use the garbage after I pick it up. I just compress it into blocks and pile it up. I go and move it once every month."

Good guy!
It turns out that Wall-E's garbage was taken away by him.

Forget it, I'll come back and slowly settle this account later.

Xu Wang continued, "You can't go now. The Mati Railway Station has a new owner. He is very powerful and can do anything."

"He also has a robot and a giant werewolf as his subordinates. They are both ruthless characters who can hold their own against ten thousand enemies."

"Don't go there to provoke him again."

"However, I heard that he will still accept some commissions for cooperation."

"If you encounter a difficult enemy, you can go find him as long as you can offer the right conditions."

Niu Hu was filled with disbelief when he heard this.

This was news he had never heard of before.

Unexpectedly, a powerful force appeared around Rokuki City.

His uncle would definitely need this information.

"So, the one occupying the Horseshoe Train Station is a powerful wasteland hunter, right?"

Niu Hu made a summary.

Xu Wang then remembered that Nick Young had once introduced him to many wasteland professions.

The so-called wasteland hunter is a profession similar to mercenaries and bounty hunters.

That's what Xu Wang chose at that time.

So Xu Wang nodded: "Yes, you can understand it that way. They have a good reputation, strong capabilities, and are honest to everyone."

"That's great! Bing Town is in need of a powerful helper!"

Niu Hu looked at Xu Wang excitedly: "To be honest, I came out this time to ask for help from Duobao Town. There is a group of cockroaches targeting Bing Town, and we need help!"

"Since the road to Duobao Town is blocked by the storm, I'll go to the Horseshoe Train Station to ask for help."

"Cockroach man?"

Xu Wang was a little curious.

It was the first time he had heard of this race.

But just hearing the name gives people the feeling that it is not a beautiful creature.

I saw Niu Hu was about to run out of the newsstand in a hurry.

Xu Wang coughed twice, put his hands behind his back, and raised his head and chest: "Actually, you don't have to run to the station."

"What do you mean?"

Niu Hu didn't understand and looked back at Xu Wang.

Xu Wang grinned: "Because I am the powerful wasteland hunter."

Niu Hu was stunned when he heard this.

Then he suddenly became angry: "You are fucking playing tricks on me!"
