the only savior

Chapter 711

Pedlio's boss, Saul, is an orthodox genetic warrior. As for whether he is the strongest in this area, it's hard to say.

A group of people left the tavern and walked towards the south.

To Zhang Xiaoman's surprise, the location of the other party's stronghold was exactly the black market he was looking for.

"Could it be that this guy is the one I'm looking for?"

A guess emerged in his mind.

The reason for saying this is not without reason.

Although some military equipment that cannot be bought outside is often found in the black market, brand new Corona combat uniforms like this are still very rare.

So, it shouldn't be just a coincidence.

Sure enough, when Zhang Xiaoman followed this group of people to the destination, he found that it was indeed the same place as Yang Yangyang described, and it was undoubtedly the same place.

Compared with other places, the number of people in the black market is obviously much higher.

This is a place that looks like a large bar, and the homeless are sitting in a corner in a daze, with no hope in their empty eyes.

Many big men dressed as mercenaries gathered together and chatted with each other, some of them held wine glasses in their hands, which contained the kind of pink rumk that Zhang Xiaoman had just drank.

These wines are considered to be one of the few things they can produce after the end of the world.

Zhang Xiaoman also saw many human beings whose bodies had been transformed.

Some of these people are equipped with mechanical arms, some have mechanical legs, and some people even have a penetrating hole in their cheeks, with metal eyeballs embedded in them.

They should all be injured in previous missions, and come back here to reinstall biological prostheses.

The shop opened by Sol is at the end of the innermost steps of the black market, so it is easy to identify.

This is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his 30s, with a strong and well-proportioned figure, and has the vicissitudes of a mature uncle.

Although he also has long ears, the difference from Na Rui and the others is that Sol's appearance is more inclined to the western race on the water blue star.

He also has short golden hair, which is somewhat similar to the Sol in the film and television drama.

Zhang Xiaoman was no stranger to this type of face, he had seen one or two of them in the survivor camp.

According to Na Rui's description, these people are all Odokians, that is, imperial people.

In other words, they have more imperial blood.

"Boss, Boss... I found the man you want. He is also a genetic warrior. He is very strong. He knocked Mardo into the air with one punch."

Pedlio, a big and rugged man, showed a submissive appearance that didn't match his appearance.

The same goes for the others. When they saw the man in front of them, they subconsciously stopped in their tracks, unwilling to approach.

It can be seen that these people must be very afraid of him.

Thinking about it, after all, if an outsider wants to be the leader of these local bullies, then what happened when they first met must not be very beautiful.

Sol put down the parts he was fiddling with in an instant when he heard the words, raised his head and looked in the direction where Zhang Xiaoman was.

"Are you a genetic warrior?"

After looking at the other party for a while, he suddenly asked suspiciously.

Zhang Xiaoman is now restraining his awakener breath, which makes Sol not feel the pressure from him.

And according to Sol's own professional judgment, the appearance shown by the other party is not like what a genetic warrior can possess at all.

Zhang Xiaoman didn't explain too much to him, but stretched out his palm and lightly pressed on the table in front of him.

In an instant, the entire table collapsed to the ground as if it had suffered a huge impact.

"This……"

Sol's footsteps that were walking here stopped.

He looked down at the scattered metal table, and then looked up at Zhang Xiaoman's right hand, a look of horror flashed in his eyes.

"What a terrible power..."

He secretly exclaimed in his heart.

Even as the instructor of the Federation's Eighth Mecha Corps, he definitely can't reach the level shown by the opponent in terms of strength.

You know, although the metal table in front of you looks inconspicuous and rusty, it is made of industrial alloy.

It is really very difficult to destroy it like this with pure physical strength.

And Sol noticed that when the opponent was exerting force just now, there was no extra movement at all.

Just one click of the understatement produced such power, which he absolutely couldn't do.

"This kind of power... doesn't look like an awakened person, but a bit like a mutant..."

He muttered to himself, and couldn't help but look at the man in front of him again.

I saw that the other party was wearing a strange dress mixed with several colors. Although it looked a bit like the dress style of Odok, Sol was sure that it was not a dress.

This can be seen from the loose and convenient structure of the clothes.

This should be a costume for combat!

The other party doesn't seem to be very old, with a face of a pure ancient star, and no gnarled muscles on his body, he doesn't seem to be able to possess that kind of strength at all.

"But...if he's a mutant, he shouldn't look like this...wait! His ears!"

Saul felt like he understood a little bit.

"You...are you really a genetic warrior...?"

He asked the question at the beginning again, but this time the context was completely different from before.

Zhang Xiaoman naturally understood what he meant.

The other party asked this question, probably because he was not sure whether he was a genetic warrior or a mutant.

He has been on the Ancient Lens Star for a while, and he still knows something about the special professions here.

Unlike genetic warriors, mutants are human beings with stronger physical qualities.

Such people usually appear in the black market in the dark zone, which is where he is now.

Mutants are born out of the transformation of illegal individuals through human experimentation without permission.

The genetic warriors are formed by the federal army's reasonable modification and guidance of human genes.

A brutish man who disregards the consequences for the sake of gaining power.

The other is to adapt to the evolutionary route of life, mainly focusing on manipulative power.

Although the improvement in physical fitness is small, there are no sequelae.

Generally speaking, mutants surpass orthodox genetic fighters in strength, speed and other aspects.

But also because of this, their physical appearance will produce various changes beyond ordinary people.

For example, a long tail, or a body covered with scales.

In short, one can see that it is not a normal person at a glance.

Give the simplest example.

When he was on the blue planet back then, Makula himself was an orthodox transformed genetic warrior, and the humanoid monsters he created were mutants.

Therefore, this is why Su Ya has undergone transformation, but her strength is not as good as the original "Four Ambassadors".

After all, the purpose of genetic warrior transformation is to control mechs, not just to fight melee.

Now, it is reasonable for Saul to ask such a question.

It's just that Zhang Xiaoman didn't answer the other party's question immediately.

He was neither a genetic warrior nor a mutant, and he was completely different from the professional system understood by the other party.

After thinking about it, he shook his head slightly and said:

"I'm not a genetic warrior..."

When Saul heard this, a relieved expression appeared on his face.

And the few subordinates on the side looked bitter.

I feel like I have messed up what the boss told me this time, and I don't know what kind of punishment I will receive.

"It's not a genetic soldier, it's a mutant..."

Thor looked at the other party again, and secretly guessed in his heart that what might be hidden under his clothes was a body covered with black scales.

"However, although it is a bit different from my requirements, I can see that you don't have a big mutation. You should be able to wear the Corona combat uniform..."

"Corona combat uniform?"

Zhang Xiaoman was a little puzzled, not knowing why the other party said that.

"I believe Pedlio should have told you that the purpose of our going out this time is to find the base where I was before."

Thor began to explain what happened.

"It's in a wilderness outside the city, surrounded by very dangerous Savaludo, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach it by myself..."

"So, I need a helper. It's just that ordinary mutants can't meet my requirements. They are too big to wear Corona battle uniforms, and they can't leave this city..."

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Xiaoman again, heaved a sigh of relief and said:
"But you look like a good guy. Although you are a mutant, your body shape is the same as that of an ordinary human. In this case, you don't have to worry about not being able to wear a combat uniform."

"I see."

Zhang Xiaoman nodded, knowing the other party's intention.

"Then where is the base you mentioned? How far is it from here?"

Sol didn't seem to be afraid that he would regret it after hearing the information, so he happily stated his destination.

"To be honest, before the scarlet doomsday, I was an instructor of the Ninth Mecha Corps of the Federation, working in a secret defense line in the local field."

"It can be said that only I know the location there, and the supplies inside are also very rich. As long as we go there, we will definitely gain a lot."

"As for the specific distance, I estimated it. It's about [-] kilometers. As long as we speed up, we can reach it before dawn..."

"You have also seen the current situation. The population in the dark zone is increasing, and the food is getting less and less. If this continues, this place will soon be paralyzed. We must find other ways, otherwise we can only Wait to die..."

"If you want, then I can give you half of the resources in the base afterwards as a reward for our transaction..."

Following Sol's narration, Zhang Xiaoman also knew the origin of the other party.

It turned out that the base that this guy was stationed before was a relatively secret defense point, and usually only the high-level commanders in the federal army could know the specific location.

It's no wonder that Su Ya didn't know.

Thinking of the mere [-] kilometers distance mentioned by the other party, Zhang Xiaoman felt more at ease.

Although this distance is a lot in the eyes of ordinary people, it is almost impossible to reach it in one night on foot.

But in the eyes of an awakened person like him, isn't that a matter of minutes?
Mutant beasts, mutants, and obstacles on the road are all just decorations.

Sol on the side also looked at him expectantly, waiting for the deal to be concluded.

"Hmm... If that's the case..."

Finally, Zhang Xiaoman spoke.

It's just that when he was halfway through his words, there was a sudden noise outside the shop, accompanied by several screams.

"what!!"

A thin man was thrown in from the door. He was one of Sol's subordinates.

"Damn bitch! Get out of here! Do you just curl up in your bed and cry!?"

A hoarse voice sounded, and a tall figure walked in from the door.

During this process, because of his height, the entire gate was a bit too big for him to pass through.

"Click!"

The man saw that he was looking for trouble, so he just pulled it, and immediately removed the frame of the metal iron door, and entered smoothly.

Its height was at least two meters three by visual inspection, and its body was covered with muscles as hard as steel. There were many sharp bone spurs on its knees and other joints, which was very ugly.

Mutant!
The identity of the visitor is obvious, this is a mutant whose body has been violently transformed.

"Iron guts! What are you doing!"

Pedlio recognized the man.

"What are you doing? Hehe..."

The big man called Tie Gu sneered, and then went straight to Sol.

"I heard that you are the strongest in this black market? Have all the resources entered your pocket?"

Tie Dan stood by the table, his tall body blocked the light of the torch, casting a large shadow.

"When will it be your turn to be the boss of our dark zone?"

He looked haughty, and seemed to disdain the strength of Solgene's fighters.

But it's true, if it were in the past, when mutants faced off against genetic warriors, it would be difficult for them to take advantage of the high-tech auxiliary combat equipment in the opponent's hands.

However, times are different now.

Since the scarlet doomsday, all high-tech equipment has been disabled, and the genetic warriors have lost their most powerful weapon.

Compared to mutants whose physical fitness is beyond ordinary people, or even mutants who have reached the level of mutant beasts, genetic warriors are simply impossible to be their opponents in terms of melee combat ability.

Therefore, the mutant in front of him is obviously interested in this black market, and he is here to grab the territory.
