Chapter 209: Old friends
He was shaking so much that Zero could not see the description of the quest on the tactical board. But the details of the mission were already imprinted in his mind, so he put away the tactical board and looked out at the world from the back of the truck.
Outside the carriage was a desolate world. At a glance, one could see that there was no end to it. No one was around.
The mutated grass was piled up in small piles, becoming one of the few decorations on the land. Compared to the wild grasses of the old era, the vitality of plants in turbulent times was even more tenacious. For example, Zero saw weeds that average less than 50 cm in length, but their rhizomes were about 10 meters deep in the ground. As long as they had 10 MM worth of water, they would be able to survive for a week.
Except for the weeds, the only things left on the ground were the high-voltage towers that could no longer work. Some of them were curved, like the old humans, allowing the broken cables to hang to the ground. Some of them were bent, like the old humans, allowing the cables to hang to the ground. As for their limbs, they lay helplessly on the ground, like dead beast bones.
At the end of the earth, there were radiation clouds that covered the entire sky. Occasionally, lightning would flash in the clouds. It was like the phenomena in the sky before a torrential rain.
The wilderness was as lifeless as usual, desolate and barren.
Compared to the wilderness, Asgard was a heavenly existence. After staying in Asgard for almost a month, he had almost forgotten about the outside world. It was only when he returned to the wilderness that he suddenly realized that the world had not changed. Asgard was just a beautiful illusion, and more people were still living in hell.
It was just that zero was not a savior. The cruelty of a great era was not something that could be saved by his own abilities. He knew this, so he turned his attention from the wilderness back to the actual mission.
The mission was carried out by a team of Windwalker, Vanguard, and Blaster. In order to complete the mission successfully, he had the three teams split up and merged together. Zero was the main person in charge of the mission. Anthony and Rankin, the other two teams leaders, were the aides, in charge of transferring Zero’s orders to their respective team members.
