Chapter 167: Rise of the Planet of the Apes?

After a lot of guessing, Yite finally brought Yan Xu to the Mining Gold Town before dark.

Perhaps because this place is too remote and it is not worth wasting a missile, the town is unexpectedly intact, and most of the buildings have just become dilapidated instead of collapsing.

"Sir, something seems to be wrong here." Yite was indeed a shrewd old man. As soon as he noticed something, he timidly hid behind Yan Xu and then spoke in a low voice.

"The infrastructure here is still relatively intact and only needs simple repairs before it can be used. There is only one reason why it has not developed into a wasteland camp, and that is that it is very dangerous." While observing the surroundings, Yan Xu answered It's question in a calm tone.

In fact, what Yan Xu said was right and wrong. Even if someone discovered this town, they would leave because they could not find food and could not grow crops. After all, the Mining Gold Town was too desolate.

He parked the car, locked the door, and lowered a steel plate to cover the window to prevent someone from breaking the glass and climbing in. Only then did Yan Xu jump out of the car.

"Don't go too far, just find an intact room nearby and clean it." Yan Xu put on his precious single-barreled shotgun, took out his Mauser pistol to check the ammunition, and then said to It.

"Yes, sir." Yite treated Yan Xu with respect as if he had received money from the Buddha.

Yan Xu took a gun and began to inspect the territory he had set his eyes on. As for whether there were any indigenous people, as soon as the gun was fired, the other party would have to add a front word. He learned this from Westerners. After all, when in Rome, you have to do as the Romans do. At least he would not cut scalps.

No traces of human life were found, nor were any large mutant creatures found. Even mutated rats were very rare, let alone mutated plants.

The main reason is that years of mining have damaged the local ecological environment. Originally, there was a chance for recovery. After all, without people, plants naturally dominate the world. However, the radioactive dust is obviously not something the fragile local ecological environment can withstand. It is a bit exaggerated to describe it as no grass grows, but there is really no vegetation in large areas.

This kind of environment certainly cannot support herbivores and does not attract predators, so it is extremely quiet.

But Yan Xu always had a feeling that there was indeed something here, but the other party was avoiding him.

After understanding this, Yan Xu stopped wasting time and returned to where he parked.

Itt and his team have initially cleared out a house, which is the town's police station.

Although it is called a police station, it is actually not very big. Judging from the position of the mottled photos on the wall, there were only five people at most.

As the town's mining industry continued to decline, the number of people continued to dwindle, and finally only one sheriff was left.

Unfortunately, the equipment room of the police station was violently opened, and the few weapons inside had long been looted. Only a few 9mm pistol bullets and a pair of pink furry handcuffs were found lost in the corner.

However, most things are still intact, and this town obviously has great potential for exploration. At least for scavengers, it is like a paradise.

"Clear the cell. You will live in it today." Yan Xu pointed to the corpse in the cell that had never come out until death and said to Ite and the others.

Yite nodded quickly and went to prepare, while Yan Xu still lived in the car.

Knowing that tonight might not be peaceful, Yan Xu did not rest but maintained his equipment.

The firearms he was using now were all from the late Qing Dynasty, so there was a lot of propellant residue. To ensure the reliability of the firearms, they had to be maintained regularly. For this reason, he even learned from Schmidt. Two golden revolvers, a Mauser pistol, a double-barreled shotgun, and a single-barreled shotgun were the weapons Yan Xu often used. They were simple and reliable.

However, after the base here is built, he will have to get a few machine guns from the late Qing Dynasty world, otherwise he may not be able to defend the base.

After completing the maintenance, Yan Xu loaded the bullets and placed them within easy reach before going to sleep with his clothes on.

Sleeping in close-fitting armor with a lead lining and coating is definitely not a comfortable thing. People with weak constitutions may fall asleep directly. After all, long-term blood circulation obstruction can be fatal. Although Yan Xu has a strong constitution, he still feels uncomfortable, so he did not fall into a deep sleep and was awakened by an unusual noise outside.

Before nightfall, Yan Xu asked Yite to take people to scatter some bottles and jars around, as well as a lot of firecrackers. These may seem simple, but if used well, they can be of great use.

As for how he heard the strange noise coming from outside while in the car, there is something called a big speaker. Yan Xu left metal pipes at the four corners of the car and installed the metal speakers when he slept. Any movement outside would be transmitted to his ears, and the sound could be adjusted by changing the size of the speaker.

Yan Xu climbed up quietly, fixed his weapon on his body, and then listened carefully to determine the opponent's location.

The other party first circled around the monster, then left when he felt he had no way to start. Judging from the friction sound caused by stepping on the sand and stones, the other party was not heavy, but his feet looked a little strange, as if he was not wearing shoes, but he was not barefoot either.

If Yan Xu had not been sure that the other party was walking on two feet, he would have suspected that it was some kind of mutant creature.

As the sound of tin cans colliding was heard, Yan Xu immediately rushed out of the car, just in time to see a black shadow fleeing hastily from the police station. He instinctively raised his gun and shot.

The black shadow was not big and its movements were very agile, but it still could not escape Yan Xu's shooting. It was hit by several bullets on the spot and fell to the ground screaming.

"Chimpanzee?!" Yan Xu was not insulting anyone. The one he shot was a real chimpanzee, but there was something wrong with it.

This chimpanzee, which is taller than a human waist, has a very ferocious look in its eyes. It does not have the innocence of animals, but is more intelligent or cunning. It also has two bloodstained daggers fixed on its body with belts. It is obvious that it sneaked into the police station before to do something that is not allowed.

Just when Yan Xu was a little confused, the dying chimpanzee let out a sharp cry.

Before Yan Xu could react, he was hit by two bullets in the back. He instinctively knelt on one knee and turned around to shoot, but he only saw two chimpanzees hiding in the corner and missed them at all.

"Fuck! Rise of the Planet of the Apes!" Yan Xu cursed while changing the magazine. Unexpectedly, these chimpanzees took the opportunity to shoot him twice and threw glass bottles at him.

These chimpanzees blended into the night, and it was impossible to defend against them when they fired black guns. However, glass bottles were not bullets, so they naturally could not hit Yan Xu. But when he saw the glass bottle shatter and the substance inside reacted with the air and exploded instantly, he was so frightened that he broke out in a sweat.

He wasn't frightened by the fact that he almost set himself on fire, but rather by how smart these chimpanzees were.

These chimpanzees are even smarter than the wasteland Odebiao that was killed at the beginning. How did they do it?!

Yan Xu was confused, but decided not to hold back. He shook his wrist and a black chain with a hook fell down.
