I became a member of the ancient gods

Chapter 18 Breaking Down
"waste."

In a wilderness in the shallow area of ​​​​the abyss, Fran spit out this evaluation without expression.

"That's too much." Lin Zhong, who was standing side by side with her, looked helpless.

"I said the car, not you!" Fran glanced at him coldly.

Lin Zhi could only shut up. He really had no way to reply when the other party pointed his finger at Huai.

In front of them, the float vehicle landed on the ground and parked. Due to the uneven terrain, the entire vehicle body tilted over.

Their car broke down.

When Lin Zhonggang started the car, there was basically no other problem with the car except for a little abnormal noise.He was extremely optimistic and decided to set off, but after running less than two hundred kilometers, the car suddenly twitched without warning, and then stopped.

Lin finally tried to restart it several times, and checked inside and out. He concluded that it could not be repaired based on his ability.

He only knew a little bit about vehicles, otherwise he wouldn't have failed to discover the hidden problems with the vehicle at the beginning. When he led the team, Xu Zhongyi was responsible for the management of the vehicle.

As for Fran, although she is extremely proficient in biological modification, she obviously knows nothing about mechanics.

Now the two of them were left in the middle of the journey, with nowhere to go or a store. Whether they wanted to continue walking or turn around and go back, they would have to travel a long distance. No wonder Fran was so resentful.

The uncomfortable silence lasted for a while, then Fran asked: "What should we do now?"

Lin Zhi sighed: "There is no good way. It is getting dark, so we will spend the night in the car today. We will stay another day tomorrow to see if it doesn't work, so we can only go out on foot."

"Why do you have to stay for another day?" Fran was very confused.

"Judging from the density of the gray fog, this is already a shallow area. The number of active hunters will be slightly more. If we are lucky, we may have a chance to meet other hunter teams." Lin Zhong explained.

Meeting other hunting teams, using the prey and equipment in the car to make a deal with them, asking them to help repair the car, or taking them away, this is the best development that Lin Zhong can think of at the moment.

"Those people will open fire when they see me." Fran said coldly.

"So, hide your tentacles when the time comes, and don't forget to dissociate your own core from the body and let it go dormant. Leave the negotiations to me, and don't say a word. If you want to be safe outside, It’s best to follow my suggestions regarding your actions.” Lin Zhi warned.

When Fran expressed her intention to go with Lin Zhong, Lin Zhong had considered how to disguise Fran as a normal human being.

In the end, he discovered that Fran could modify her body arbitrarily to a large extent. Not only could she retract the tentacles and scales on her body, she could also temporarily detach her apostle core from her body.

As long as she does this and puts on the protective clothing left by Li Suling, Fran's body can be temporarily disguised as that of an ordinary person.

And her apostolic reaction in the detector will also be reduced to the level of the upper body, which can at least barely explain her as an infected person.

"Okay, I'll let you arrange it. I hope your skills can come in handy."

After Fran finished speaking angrily, she suddenly stretched out the syringe tentacle in front of Lin Zhong.

Lin finally understood, took off his protective clothing, exposed his arms, and asked Fran to draw some blood.

Fran narrowed her eyes and felt Lin Zhong's physical condition through the extracted blood sample. Finally, she nodded: "It's pretty stable. At this rate, a final injection tomorrow morning should be enough."

"Thank you." Lin finally thanked him sincerely.

Fran is indeed a good doctor. When he first started transplanting the heart of the sneaking worm, he always felt a foreign body sensation in his chest.

After continuous injections of Fran's serum, the foreign body sensation has completely subsided, and the damn labor pain has never happened again.

The only thing that Lin Zhong felt a little concerned about was that before the two labor pains, he had the feeling that time around him was slowing down.

Since then, this feeling has not appeared again, and Lin Zhong is still not sure whether it was his illusion.

"Cut some meat from the prey. I'm hungry. Let's eat first." Fran began to instruct Lin Zhong to do things.

"I understand." Lin Zhong smiled bitterly and walked towards the trunk of the car.

He now not only has to rely on Fran to provide treatment, but also to rely on Fran to provide food.All he could do for Fran now was drive for her, but the car also broke down.

Even he himself felt that he was taking the other party's soft food at all, and he dared not refuse to obey Fran's request.

The trunk contains the prey that Fran shot, including the stalking worms that were not eaten yesterday.

Lin Zhi picked up the saber and was about to cut it when he heard Fran calling him from behind: "Wait a minute!"

When Lin Zhong turned around, he saw Fran's brows furrowed and she looked attentive. She asked, "What's wrong?"

This time, Fran was silent for a few seconds before turning her face to a certain direction, and then answered: "There is the sound of a car in this direction."

Appeared so soon?
Lin Zhong cheered up, then put away his saber, took the electronic telescope and signal gun from the trunk, climbed directly onto the roof of the car, and looked in the direction Fran said.

Although he didn't hear the sound, he didn't doubt what Fran said. Since Fran has the ability to transform her body, it's not surprising that her own sensory sensitivity is far beyond ordinary people.

The gray fog in the shallow area of ​​the abyss is very thin and has little impact on the field of vision.

Through the telescope, Lin Zhong quickly captured a large amount of flying dust in the distance, and an old-fashioned four-wheel off-road vehicle was speeding across the wasteland.

Lin was a little surprised. The appearance of this off-road vehicle was a bit rough. Even the rearview mirrors on both sides were different in style. It looked like it had been randomly assembled with old parts, and it had obviously undergone many additional modifications. Making it look like a ferocious steel beast.

Regular hunting teams basically purchase or rent vehicles from the sanctuary through formal channels. At least Lin Zhong himself has never seen such a "unique" off-road vehicle in the sanctuary.

Could it be the Wilderness?Lin Zhong immediately made a guess.

People who stay away from the sanctuary and settle in deserted cities, or wander around, are called wilderness travelers.Some wilderness travelers go into the abyss to hunt for a living, the so-called wilderness hunters.

Lin was a little hesitant. Wilders were not subject to the legal control of the sanctuary and could basically do anything. There were also many wilderness travelers who were hanging around outside because they were wanted by the sanctuary.

No, isn’t it okay if I’m not a Wilderness?

Even his most trusted comrades may shoot him in the face. Who in this land is truly worthy of trust?

But no matter what, they do need help, and with Fran here, there seems to be nothing to fear.

After thinking about it, he finally raised his flare gun to the sky and fired a flare.
