Chapter 532 Hunter
"You're right." Next to him, Uriah nodded.
In the doomsday wasteland, when acid rain falls, all the scavengers outside must find bunkers to hide. This is the case for Wayne and his group, and the same is true for the four people from the Iron Hand Gang.
Therefore, no matter what plans Wayne and his gang have, they have to wait for the rain to end.
"I hope this rain will end soon."
Uriah sighed, the acid rain in the wasteland was unpredictable, and it might last for a few hours, or it might last for a few days.
Wow!
The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier. In a world polluted by radiation, it is difficult to even find a source of clean water. In the ruins cave, Wayne excitedly played with the mechanical arm and couldn't help but smile. .
"Is the harvest this time so rich?"
Next to him, Uriah rummaged through other trophies from the backpacks of Wayne and others. In addition to the most precious mechanical arm, there were also a lot of food, moldy bread, and half-left cans. These things were all very precious.
The only pity is that most of the food thrown from the floating island has gone bad. Although the wasteland people can adapt to it with their physical constitution, the taste will definitely not be that good.
It is precisely because of this that the apple is so precious.
Soon, several hours passed.
The acid rain outside still showed no sign of ending. Uriah followed the cracks in the ruins and looked outside, unable to help but frown slightly on his face.
"Everyone, let's eat something first." At this time, Wayne suggested.
According to the habits of wastelanders, when food is insufficient, they often eat only once every few days, but if food is abundant, this period will be shortened.
Today, Wayne and his gang have just finished scavenging garbage.
There was plenty of food. Since they didn't know how long it would take to stop the rain outside, everyone decided to replenish their energy.
"This is for you, Enzo."
Wayne took out a partially eaten can from the cloth bag. At this time, the best food in the scavenging except apples exuded a rotten sourness, but he could still smell a hint of essence.
"Thanks, Wayne."
This time, Enzo did not refuse. This body was too weak, so it had to be replenished with enough food. Every bit of energy could be transformed into something more important for Enzo.
Enzo then ate the entire can.
Although he had not eaten rotten food for a hundred years, as a wizard, this matter was nothing. Enzo licked the can cleanly without wasting any resources.
"Is there any more?" Enzo asked, putting down the empty can.
"Uh...yes."
Wayne was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and took out some food from the rag bag again and handed it to Enzo.
"You have just emerged from the dangerous period and your body is very weak. Eat more."
Wayne smiled honestly, and Enzo was not polite. He grabbed the food and stuffed it into his mouth, and quickly finished all the food for three people.
On the side, Uriah and others were stunned.
"Do you still...want it?"
Wayne opened his mouth and asked tentatively. For a small team, food is an extremely precious resource, so it cannot be wasted at all. If Enzo eats too much food, it will be unfair to others.
"...Let's do this for now." Enzo said softly after seeing Wayne's expression.
Wayne immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, Uriah, who was standing beside him, had a thoughtful expression on his face, and a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he immediately sent his food to Enzo. .
"If you can still eat it, eat these too!" Uriah said eagerly.
"Still...no." Enzo shook his head.
After spending several hours in the ruins cave, Uriah was also very hungry. If he gave his food to himself, it would undoubtedly make him weak.
"In other words... you can still eat it?"
A flash of light flashed in Uriah's eyes, and she quickly asked: "Enzo, are you very hungry now? You feel like you can't get enough even though you eat a lot of food?"
Next to him, Wayne looked confused.
Hunger is the normal state of wastelanders. Almost every scavenger is in the best state when they are not full. The process of food being converted into energy in the abdomen is the best state.
Enzo smiled wryly and nodded.
Of course he was hungry, but it was within tolerance, but he hadn't felt this way for a long time since he became a wizard.
"Very good!"
Seemingly understanding something, Uriah stood up suddenly and said excitedly, "It's really great, I know, Enzo is going to be alienated."
alienation?
Hearing Uriah's words, Enzo narrowed his eyes slightly. This word was somewhat familiar, and seemed to belong to the memory of the previous owner of this body.
"alienation?"
Next to him, the two-headed boy Monroe looked confused, but the girl Oppa opened her eyes wide and said in surprise, "You mean, Enzo is going to become a hunter?"
Suddenly, everyone was shocked.
"Yes, that's it!"
Uriah looked excited and nodded, "I once read in a book that some of the people who were infected by zombies but did not turn into zombies would have varying degrees of physical alienation."
"The early manifestation of alienation is extreme hunger!"
"Alienation...Hunter..."
Wayne took a breath and couldn't help but said, "Oh my god, has the god of luck finally favored us?"
Too many good things happening in the same day can feel unreal.
Wayne is in this state now, his head is dizzy. First, he picked up a mechanical arm and a large amount of resources in the garbage dump. However, his partner was scratched by zombies, but there was no mutation, but signs of alienation began to appear.
If a hunter appears in a small team, that is obviously something more worthy of celebration than getting a robotic arm.
"Ulea, are you sure?" Wayne asked quickly.
As the team's force officer, Wayne has almost zero knowledge and cannot understand it even if he gets a book. Therefore, Uriah is the only trustworthy think tank in the small team.
"You can't go wrong!"
Uriah nodded and said solemnly, "You should know very well how much food Enzo ate just now. This is very abnormal from his usual state. The only explanation is that Enzo's body is undergoing alienation, so it requires a lot of energy."
Enzo opened his mouth, but did not refute Uriah.
Regarding this body, Enzo himself knew very well that it was not alienation at all. It was just a wizard's method of quickly digesting the food he had eaten. However, it was mistaken for alienation by Uriah, but there was no harm in it.
Anyway, Enzo will also show his great strength in the near future.
Therefore, blaming everything on the mutation of the body can be regarded as a reasonable explanation, so that Enzo no longer has to worry about these things.
"Enzo, are you very hungry now?" Uriah asked again.
"Maybe...a little bit." Enzo said with a wry smile.
"That's no problem!"
Uriah nodded, dragged all the food of the small team in front of Enzo, and said, "Eat as much as you can. The alienation of the hunter requires a lot of energy. You must satisfy your appetite to get more." Lots of energy.”
"……All right."
Enzo thought for a moment and did not refuse. Although Uriah misunderstood, he really needed food as energy now.
Then, Enzo stopped hesitating and started eating.
In a short time, Enzo had eaten almost all the food the small team picked up from the garbage dump. As the food was converted into energy, Enzo's condition became better and better.
"I want to rest for a while." Enzo said.
"Of course, no problem." Wayne said quickly.
Several people carefully put away the little food left. Even Wayne's face looked a little distressed. This scavenging was the most harvested time for the small team. It could have lasted a few people for a month, but now there was not much left. .
Only Uriah looked normal and didn't feel sorry for the food at all.
Because he knew very well what it would mean for the small team if Enzo became a hunter. In the chaotic wasteland, force can measure everything. There is no real hunter in the entire underground shelter 72. The wild one.
"We must succeed, Enzo!"
Uriah prayed in her heart that if Enzo could become a hunter this time, then after training, he would become a truly powerful being. He could even hunt mutant beasts, kill Mad Dog Johnny, and become the ruler of Underground Vault 72. Maybe.
At that time, the small team will naturally become stronger.
It was precisely because of this opportunity that Uriah was not stingy and poured all his resources into Enzo. Even Wayne couldn't compare to such a vision.
In the corner, Enzo sat cross-legged.
He slowly closed his eyes and began to breathe rhythmically. In his mind, the chip provided the most efficient knight's breathing method, allowing the energy in the body to be quickly converted.
After embarking on the wizard's journey for a hundred years, Enzo used the chip to record too much knowledge.
Among them, there are more than a thousand breathing methods with different attributes. Using these breathing methods, the chip calculates the strongest knight breathing method, which can not only quickly gain powerful strength, but can even cultivate to a third-level life form.
You must know that even in the wizarding world, most of the knight's breathing methods can only allow knights to practice to the first level of extraordinary realm. Only the fortress world known as the "cradle of knights" has more advanced breathing methods.
"Let's overdo it for now."
The thought flashed in Enzo's mind. He did not use this body to practice the meditation method of the wizard system. The main reason was that it was not clear whether humans in the sea blue world could become wizards. The second reason was that the knight's breathing method made it easier to gain power.
After all, for Enzo now, basic force is very urgent.
The ruins cave fell into silence, and only the sound of rain outside could be heard. Wayne and the others gathered together, not daring to disturb Enzo at all.
After a few more hours, Enzo slowly opened his eyes.
"Chip, retrieve the data of this body."
"Enzo/Strength: 2.7/Physique: 2.3/Spirit: 3.5/Condition: Good."
The familiar data panel appeared in front of him. It only took Enzo a few hours to break through this body to the level of a knight. His body was only slightly weaker, but he was gradually improving.
"Unfortunately, energy is still needed!"
Enzo sighed in his heart. He gathered a thousand knight breathing techniques. The breathing technique analyzed by the powerful computing function of the chip is so powerful that it can quickly convert the energy in the human body into fighting spirit.
If it weren't for lack of food, Enzo could even directly break through the Sky Knight.
As for the higher-level extraordinary knights, it requires some effort, but it is not difficult.
"Enzo...is it over?"
Seeing Enzo open his eyes, Uriah quickly stepped forward and asked, for the current small team, if an alienated hunter could appear, it would be an opportunity to change everyone's destiny.
"maybe?"
Enzo chuckled, waved his fist and said, "Anyway, I feel full of strength now."
After saying that, Enzo punched the wall.
The cement board that had been abandoned for many years easily shattered with one punch. Wayne next to him suddenly opened his eyes wide with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Oh my god! How is this possible?"
Wayne couldn't help but open his mouth. Most of the scavengers in the wasteland era were weak. Even Wayne could only break wooden boards and fight ferociously to gain some fame in the garbage dump.
And the power of Enzo's punch at this time was enough to kill Wayne.
"it is as expected!"
Uriah's eyes flashed and he said excitedly: "After the first alienation, the hunter may gain various abilities. The most basic of them is the enhancement of strength and speed. This state is also called the black iron level hunter." The wild one."
"Dark Iron Level Hunter?"
Enzo's heart moved. It seems that this is the world. The classification of levels starts from the most basic Black Iron level.
"What level is Mad Dog Johnny?" Wayne asked quickly.
"I don't know, but it's said to be bronze level."
Uriah thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Level can only represent the strength of a hunter, but it cannot measure the true combat effectiveness. Johnny with a flintlock gun, I heard that he once hurt a silver-level hunter."
"The reason why the Hunters are so powerful is because of the mechas!"
Uriah paused and then said, "The core of the mecha's power lies in the energy source, and when the energy source is used, it will produce powerful radiation. Only higher-level hunters can control more powerful mechas."
"Is that so?"
Wayne nodded suddenly. He didn't know much about mechas and hunters. Then he seemed to remember something and asked quickly, "Then if you're not a hunter, can't you control mechas?"
"Theoretically...can't."
Uriah shook his head and frowned: "Ordinary people cannot withstand the radiation released when the mecha is running. Forcibly controlling the mecha will only lead to your own death. However, I heard that scientists on the floating city have developed a This drug can give ordinary people the ability to resist radiation, but there is a time limit."
"Then... if ordinary people want to become hunters, is there any other way besides being bitten by zombies?" At this time, Enzo suddenly asked.
