Fast Forward To three thousand and seventy seven

Chapter 7



Opportunities are often hidden in crises.

The extremely strange environment and various mutant organisms in the specific area threaten human beings, but also provide a large number of reference samples and materials for various scientific and technological research.

Just as human beings have developed various tools by learning from nature, human beings in this era are still lighting up their science and technology tree by studying various existence in the special area. For example, the company involved in Xu Jiu's task this time is just one of them.

Because of this, the security zone, which is officially funded by Wusu city and collectively referred to as the outpost, is not only a simple military camp, but also serves as logistics and other functions.

In fact, in the eyes of Xu Jiu, who just arrived at the outpost, the camp in front of him is actually no worse than the community in the mobile town. Even the network signal appears in the upper right corner of the smartphone, and the network speed is faster than that in the mobile city.

The whole camp presents a "concave" shape, with reinforced concrete buildings on three sides.

Its center is a three-story building with the official logo of Wusu city hanging outside and the plaque of "logistics center" lit below. It is specially responsible for receiving all teams or individuals receiving official tasks. Even at this time, it is brightly lit, and there are all kinds of supplementary shops on both sides.

Standing at the door alone, you can see two weapon stores belonging to different companies, and a tavern with neon signs outside the door.

After crossing the gate to stop the vehicle, Xu Jiu followed Cheng Lin, the woman who drove him here, and went to the task filing office to get the Pathfinder provided by the task publisher.

"The fierce beasts on the wasteland know the danger of the special area and will not approach, and the special area near the stronghold has also been cleaned. Even if there is an alien beast attack, they can give an early warning in advance, so this outpost will have a safe area."

Looking sideways at Xu Jiu, who is fully armed in order not to expose his identity and is looking around at the surrounding environment through his mask, Cheng Lin briefly introduced the situation here.

"Safe zone... Is it really safe?"

Xu Jiu raised his chin at the entrance of the tavern not far from the front. There were a lot of people around, and there were soldiers in uniform.

"It may be that some people are drunk, crazy and make trouble. People who often go in and out of the special area are under the pressure of life and death for a long time. It's no accident to have some extreme actions. Moreover, this is C16 special area, and the threat rating is secondary medium level. This phenomenon is normal."

As they spoke, they were getting closer and closer to the crowd. Xu Jiu glanced at the situation in the middle of the crowd and saw only two "white coats" rescuing the people lying on the ground.

Drinking to the point that he needs first aid is also a talent.

He murmured in his heart. Xu Jiu didn't mean to stop. It's working time now. He's not interested in making fun here.

After entering the logistics center, Cheng Lin handed Zhao Fanglin's citizenship card and the certificate for receiving meritorious service to Xu Jiu, and then ordered him to say,

"There are two windows in the task office. You are looking for a man with job No. 935. He will ask you to take off your mask for identity verification on the grounds that the testing instrument fails. Just do it. We have said hello to him in advance. There will be no problem."

"I see."

Write down Cheng Lin's job number, and Xu Jiu nods.

The next thing went as smoothly as Cheng Lin said. Xu Jiu entered the task office and completed the report in only two minutes. After seeing the certificate in his hand, the seemingly decent employee pulled out the detector and monitoring power quite smoothly.

Then, on the ground of equipment failure, the whole process of manual operation avoided all the steps that might leave evidence.

I'm an old hand in this field.

In fact, this is why Xu Jiu does this agent training. For example, the official logistics center attaches great importance to the identity verification of the people coming and going. Even the Zhao family has to spend a lot of money to dredge up and ensure that the other party will not temporarily repent or the lion opens his mouth.

If Xu Jiu wants to do this, let alone find someone to bribe, he may not even find the channel, because he can't enter the gate of the outpost!

Just completing the reporting is just to let the official update the status of the meritorious task. Next, Cheng Lin has to take Xu Jiu to the office of the company that released the task in the logistics center.

There are various laboratories in C16 special area, which are subordinate to various technology companies in Wusu city. In order to facilitate business processing, it is normal to set up an office in the outpost under the official auspices.

It's all for money, and it's quite expensive.

Of course, for those rich and powerful consortia, it's nothing to spend some money to have a safe office outside the special zone.

Knock on the door of the office and show the official certificate just obtained from the task office. Xu Jiu smoothly obtained three small metal cans and a manual containing the password inside the laboratory and the operation methods of key instruments from the people here.

"There are two kinds of guide insects. The first is from the starting point to the central response point, and the second is from the response point to the area where the laboratory is located. After opening the cover, the guide insect will act independently. If there is an accident that needs to be suspended, you can open the No. 3 can and let the guide insect return."

In view of the special environment in the special area, the commonly used electronic search instruments will not have any effect. As for the * paper map, it will be limited by the violent environmental changes, and it is difficult to locate accurately. Finally, it can only rely on special insects growing in the special area.

Not to mention, this thing is very easy to use and can pass freely in most special areas without being affected. When Xu Jiu first knew this thing, he thought it was the "guide bug" in a hunting game in a previous life, but the latter has more function of marking the target's whereabouts.

"The special area will open in three hours. You can go back to the car and rest during this time to adjust your state to the best. I will help you buy tomorrow's breakfast."

After the early preparation, Cheng Lin is ready to take Xu Jiu back to the SUV.

Xu Jiu nodded. He didn't intend to go to bed. He just returned to the bus hoping to act as soon as possible after dawn.

In his current constitution, not sleeping all night will not have any effect.

"Wait!"

As soon as they reached the entrance of the stairs, there was a shout behind them.

I saw a woman in a white coat and loose hair running here. When she was close, a strong smell of wine came to her face. Xu Jiu immediately stepped back two steps and turned his hand to pull Cheng Lin in front of her.

Bang~

The two collided. Cheng Lin could be sent to help the special area. Obviously, he was not an ordinary person. He directly pressed the woman's shoulder and immediately pushed forward to forcibly open the distance.

At this time, several people in the same dress came behind each other. Xu Jiu found that the two people had seen at the door of the tavern before.

It's not just doctors in white coats

"I want to go to C16 special area with you. I know the situation in the laboratory and how to get the task props. As long as you can take me, you can pay as much as you want, and as long as you can save my sister, I can..."

The woman kept coming up to Cheng Lin, shook her hands, untied her clothes and said these things incoherently.

"Sorry, she's drunk."

The two people who caught up with her hurriedly picked her up and apologized.

"They have the nameplate of Chilan biological group on their clothes. They should be the researchers here. It seems that the woman just said to save her sister... It should be the people who died in the special area."

Looking at the woman struggling to be taken away, Cheng Lin sighed. He was about to turn around and say something, but found that Xu Jiu, who should have been behind her, had already disappeared at the entrance of the stairs.

He's not here to listen to stories.
