Wasteland: Hunting the wasteland with a max-level account

Chapter 21 The New Year③
  This is a very primitive trap, a hole dug in the dirt road and covered with thin branches. It's cloudy at the moment, and if it snows in a few days, the traces on it will be completely buried. If you don't bring an experienced hunter with you, whoever comes will suffer.

"This trap is definitely made by savages!"

"Yes! That's their style!"

"Okay! Do they dare to keep an eye on the caravan's belongings? They even dug holes in the trade routes!"

Everyone was filled with indignation.

The trap is half a meter deep and has steep sides. Even if the tire of the shelter car gets stuck, it will be impossible to get out for a while. By then the wind and snow will be strong, and the savages will have a geographical advantage. Even if the caravan is not destroyed, more than half of its stuff will definitely be lost.

Hua Xiaoqin heard the hunting team mention savages again and was very curious.

But no matter what, now is not the time to explore. We must break this trap first. Since the savages are eyeing the caravan, they won't just dig this trap.

Besides, they haven't reached the inn a hundred kilometers away yet. These traps were dug for vehicles coming out of the shelter.

So let’s guess at the caravan at the other end of the inn. How many traps will the savages dig for the car returning from the caravan?

Hua Xiaoqin's words made everyone's hearts move.

"What should we do? Fill it in?"

“This hole can’t be filled in as many hours as possible!”

"Let's stop digging. Just use a hammer to dig out in the ice and snow and get some signs on the spot." Luo Bing is an old team member and he adapts to the situation. "Let's dig the signs deeper and add water to freeze them to make them more eye-catching. If they can still fall off like this, If you fall into a trap, you can’t blame us, can you?”

Hua Xiaoqin applauded, and everyone got the order. Except for the sentry, everyone got off the car and helped erect piles of ice around the trap.

A red flag is placed in the middle of the ice pile. The ice crystals shine so brightly that they can be seen from a distance.

After marking the trap, the tenth team got back into the car and cautiously continued driving along the dirt road to the inn.

On the more than 100 kilometers of dirt road from the inn to the shelter, there are not only traps on the road, but also a series of pits dug on the roadside. The main purpose is to take surprise.

The team members were so angry that they cursed while working.

When the sun was about to go down, they arrived at the inn. Everyone was disgraced and exhausted, having spent the whole day just playing on the ice.

Hua Xiaoqin let them arrange the camping arrangements, while she went up to the roof of the inn, looking very bad.

Others didn't dare to disturb her when they saw this.

It had been a whole day, but she hadn't found a single prey frozen in the ground.

This is very wrong.

It had only been a few days since she came back from the south. How could the corpses of frozen beasts be cleared away completely? You must know that when they came back from the south, they could find six or seven frozen meats every few hundred meters. Now, for more than a hundred kilometers, there is not one!

It's impossible that none of them were frozen to death. Could it be that they were dug up by some ferocious beast?

Aren’t there no big beasts around here anymore?
  Hua Xiaoqin thought about it and came up with only one guess: all the frozen beasts in the frozen soil and vegetation had been found and taken away by the savages.

If this was the case, then the combat effectiveness of these savages was much higher than she imagined.

The savages are deliberately trying to eat the caravan's things, and they must often check these traps.

If you don’t encounter it today, you may encounter it tomorrow.

What if the savages don't even let the tenth team go?

Hua Xiaoqin felt her head hurt, gave up thinking, and left the roof to arrange the vigil.

Fortunately, the night passed safely without any words.

The next morning, everyone had breakfast and continued their journey.

Before setting off, Hua Xiaoqin informed them of the battle plan that she had been thinking about for half the night last night.

She had no idea about the size or level of the savages, so she could only let everyone cheer up. Whenever you encounter a savage, drive back and do not confront them head-on.

The ones on the truck body are responsible for defense, while the ones inside the vehicle body have to emit flares to notify the sentries at the shelter or the caravans already on their way back.

And she herself is strong in combat and can escape alone when necessary.

So when necessary, she was responsible for breaking up the rear, and the other team members quickly returned to the shelter to bring in reinforcements.

People from the 10th team look at me and I look at you, they are all a little in disbelief.

Luo Bing was the first to object: "Boss, there's no way you can defeat a group of savages by yourself. Don't be brave then, let's all go together!"

Although the credibility of Luo Bing's words has to be compromised, he is the first to express his stance, so he still has to accept the sentiment.

Hua Xiaoqin nodded: "I understand, let's try not to leave anyone behind."

As for actual implementation, we can only adapt to circumstances.

Compared with yesterday, everyone's atmosphere today is even more depressed.

Hua Xiaoqin didn't care too much, she could escape no matter what. If a situation really arises, she will only be responsible for cutting off the rear. But if there are too many savages, they will not only entangle her but also send people to chase the large army, and the large army will have no choice but to ask for their own blessings.

After passing the inn, the potholes on the dirt road became fewer and fewer, but their area became larger and larger, and they were distributed irregularly.

Fortunately, everyone only put up signs and had no plans to fill in the holes.

The small number actually increased the speed of the hunting team.

When I marked the third pit and headed to the fourth pit, the situation finally changed.

Hua Xiaoqin asked someone to stop the car in advance.

[Appraisal (Level 100): This is an icy dirt road with a low degree of freezing. It is very dangerous to step on it. There is a square trap one meter deep and one meter wide under the dirt road. A mutated mink froze to death last night. In the small hole in the northwest corner of the dirt road, there are two wilderness wanderers lying in wait. 】

"Everyone, be careful and don't get out of the car. We have an unexpected harvest this time."

Hua Xiaoqin said, and was about to open the door. After thinking about it, she got out of the car window and stood on the roof of the car.

Everyone wanted to stick their heads out of the car to see what was going on. Upon seeing this, Hua Xiaoqin asked them to put up their shields and stay vigilant.

Seeing that the boss was so cautious, the others knew that they were most likely running into a savage.

Hua Xiaoqin half-crouched on the roof of the car, pulled out three boomerangs with both hands, and threw them forward one after another.

The three boomerangs went out diagonally, circling at three angles.

Whirring whirring……

The boomerang cut through the north wind and struck the branches above the trap one after another. It easily knocked down the branches, revealing most of the trap.

"it is good!"

Just as everyone was cheering and the savage ambushing in the pit was cursing secretly, the boomerang had quietly moved behind the savage...

Puff puff……

All three boomerangs hit their targets and made deep cuts in the backs of the two savages' heads.

"Let's go! Follow me to arrest someone!"

Hua Xiaoqin roared, pointed at the small pit with one hand, and caught the three weapons spinning in the air with the other hand.

"They are poisoned now and can't see anything. You can just greet them casually."

Hua Xiaoqin smiled and got back into the car to keep warm.
