Steel Steam and Flame

　　Perhaps in a sense, what is in the suitcase now matches Cassia, and its destructive power and threat to people are far greater than those boxes of 500-weight machine gun bullets.

　　 is not too much luggage, only necessary firearms and cold weapons. The firearm is a revolver that has become a standard configuration, and the cold weapon is a steel sword and a standard tactical knife. Other things Cassia brought a little bit, but not many. Because based on his experience in the previous missions, in addition to the teammates that have run in with each other to cooperate with each other to carry out the mission, then he can bring some medium or heavy weapons according to the situation. In other cases, single-player missions and the situation currently facing Cassia, it can be said that the necessity of these configurations has not been considered.

　　 In the future, after everyone has performed several tasks, may there be a chance to consider the team configuration, right? Cassia touched his short hair, and the cool breeze blowing in from the open window made his head feel very cool.

　　 The air smelled of muddy soil and the scent of decayed roadside weeds, and the humidity far exceeded the expected level. It had just rained, and the ground was wet but not dry, and there were obvious puddles in some places, dotted on the road like a mirror in disorder.

　　 How long did the street light disappear, and when the road on the concrete and slate floor came to an end, Cassia didn’t know. When he was completely separated from his own thinking, the scene that had been flowing by the roadside seemed to have transformed into another world out of thin air, becoming a scene he had never seen before, or just seen in a book.

　　 The car body is shaking violently. With the extremely excellent shock absorption device, the vertical swing of the car body is suppressed to the smallest range.

　　 But even if I heard the driver say that this is the smallest swing range, Cassia still shook his head helplessly when looking at the surrounding scenery that was swinging due to its own swing.

　　 The sound of "creaking" rubbing began to sound in the ears of the two of them when they entered the simple mountain road in front of them. The road is pitted and bumpy, and one piece less and one piece more are normal. The more you go forward, the deeper the puddles on the road, the size of which can make half of this off-road vehicle completely sink in and unable to get up. There are also many rubbles that roll down from the side of the mountain from time to time, and the speed of the car is not weakened at all. When the tires are pressed on it, the whole car can fly into the air at once.

　　 There was a ping-pong ping-pong-pong in the suitcase, it was the things inside that were moving randomly, and the sound naturally had no pattern at all.

　　 "It doesn't matter, right?" The driver slowed down and looked at Cassia and asked.

"It's okay, this level of vibration is not enough to make my head dizzy." Cassia turned his head and looked at the veteran face of the driver, probably in his forties, covered with rocks after being washed by wind and rain. Feeling old, the wrinkles in the corner of his eyes are already obvious.

"It's not the problem," the driver then increased his voice a little, so as not to let the "cracking" sound from the car drown the meaning of his words, "I mean where the luggage is. The luggage is not in the way? You need to walk a difficult road, for fear of damaging your luggage."

　　 As he said, he spotted the flat area in front of him and stopped the car, took out the map he had at hand and showed it to Cassia.

　　 That is a winding mountain road, specially marked with a blue stamp pen, winding like congenital deformity plant vines in the middle of the mountains. The middle-aged driver used a red pen to poke a small red dot on the map to show Cassia where they are now.

"I've only walked a third of the road. I want to get to a smooth road. It may not be until the evening." He looked up at the cirrus clouds in the sky and said, "The next road will be even worse. You and I may be able to bear it, but I am afraid that your luggage will have a problem. If there are sophisticated instruments in it, and if you leave this section of the mountain road, I think that after taking them out, they can definitely be thrown into the garbage dump. Status. Do you want to fix it? There should be a rope there."

　　 Seeing that the car had stopped, Cassia was no longer polite, found the rope to secure the luggage, and set off again.

　　 The locomotive started, and the sound suddenly dropped a lot, giving Cassia the illusion that the surroundings became quiet. He leaned in his seat and also learned middle age

The driver looked at the clouds rolled up in the sky. The gray clouds lay between the two mountain peaks and could not move. There was a cold and aggressive atmosphere on them. There are no decent plants on the hillsides on both sides of the road, but half-green and half-yellow weeds are stacked there very cheaply, extending forward along with the urgency of the slope.

　　The sights in sight are all desolate scenes, only the unmoving rocks on the mountain have an aura different from this sad atmosphere. I thought that the moss here would be fresher and more energetic than those in the military school, but Cassia was disappointed when he saw them in a shady place. The color that flourished to black and green was not what Cassia was looking for.

　　 So closed his eyes, and Cassia stopped looking at the lonely scene with a strong sense of rendering.

The middle-aged driver on the side seemed to see the expression on Cassia’s face, and the smile on the corner of his mouth flashed over~www.ltnovel.com~ He said to Cassia: “Don’t rush to make a conclusion, take this journey. It's over. There is a longer section to rush. The destination is still far from here. It is not as bleak as you imagined, it will surprise you."

　　 After hearing the sound, Cassia opened his eyes, and saw him smiling with a row of white teeth, looking forward with intent, to avoid various obstacles on the road in time.

"Don't lie to you." He said, "It's different from here. Although they belong to the same mountain range, as long as someone develops, a wasteland can be lively in a short time. I can't say how complete the facilities are, but At least in terms of the senses, I believe it is good. If I remember correctly."

　　 "Do you know where?"

"I know, I have been there once a long time ago. People like us in the logistics department, especially those who transport you to various places to perform tasks, have almost traveled to more than half of the empire. I have seen it for a long time. Of course, there are more things than you. It’s been naked for more than ten years. It’s something that can’t escape."

"But it's not something to be proud of. It's just things accumulated by time, and everyone has it." The middle-aged driver continued, "When I went there, I was also transporting students like you to take part in learning tasks. .But there were seniors who were older than me who took me. But now, I can be regarded as a person who can be called an elder. When I think about it, time passes very quickly. Ten years and a blink of an eye Passed.” (To be continued.)
