Chapter 280: Grey Bridge Town

"Remember, that major general with black and white hair." Lucy gestured with her fingers outstretched.

"Catherine lived with the king snake for a while, and she was familiar with the king snake species. She once said that king snakes are wonderfully dangerous species, and they have the instinct to evolve by constantly adapting to their environment. In other words, theoretically, the king snake species can live in any environment, even in extreme environments, it is possible to survive. ”

Catherine was intrigued by the king snake, believing that its blood would allow other creatures to have the same evolutionary instincts. In this way, even ordinary beings will one day evolve into advanced life forms in the universe. But I don't think it's very likely, unless the genes of the original life can be completely transformed into the genes of the king snake, it will be difficult to inherit the instinct of the king snake. "Alan himself has absorbed the blood of the king snake, and the blood of the snake has indeed brought some changes to him, but it is far less exaggerated than Catherine said.

Lucy shrugged and said, "My biology is just getting started, and I can't answer such a profound question." However, as far as I know, it is very difficult to combine or inherit the genes of two species, although one possible way is to breed mixed offspring. Only then it was not the result that Major General Catherine had hoped for. ”

"I thought so, but Catherine didn't think so. And I think there will be no shortage of people who share her thoughts. In addition, now that the surface of the earth is almost extinct, such a different species as the king snake is almost extinct, once it is discovered, it will bring a lot of unnecessary trouble. Alan said, "So, it's ideal to take it to the Outlands." ”

"You say yes, Shiro?"

The White Snake nodded as if he didn't understand.

Lucy stretched, lay down on the grass and said, "You have a lot of secrets. ”

Alan smiled but said nothing.

After a few days, the public flyer finally had a departure to the 7th District. Alan arrives at Liberty Harbor and finds that there are surprisingly few travelers to the 7th Arrondissement. It's no wonder that the 7th District is one of the few districts that have declared independence, even though Liberty Gate has repeatedly stressed that they will not allow the independence movement to interfere with normal traffic and traffic between the floating islands and the surface. However, the situation on the ground is volatile, and if it is not necessary, not many people are willing to go to the area of the Gate of Freedom at this time.

Alan made the necessary disguises, and now he looks like a mercenary who has just debuted. Two automatic pistols on the waist are a good cover, and the qiē logo associated with Bescord is removed. In addition to that, he also carried a black box. This long metal black box contains a heavy knife Chijun, the metal used in the black box is the fourth-generation composite metal researched and developed by the Mosen family, and the knife box made of it can withstand the weight of Chijun, so that Alan no longer has to carry a heavy knife everywhere.

As for the demon salute, naturally he also hid it secretly on his body.

With Qianjun and Source Weapon in hand, even if he collides with an ordinary awakened person, Eren has the power to fight. Therefore, he was not too careless on this trip to the surface.

At this time, it was located in the Castle of Ugal. Horn was reading the text when Helmet, the butler, walked in. Seeing that Helsing's expression was different, Horn put down his work and said, "Mr. Helsing, what's wrong?" ”

"I've found out about the Predators." Helsing said in a deep voice.

A strange scream suddenly sounded in the quiet study, the doors and windows of the study shook violently, and Horn slowly stood up, the seat below him silently shattered. Horn said word by word, "Which predator." ”

Beads of sweat broke out on Butler Haisin's face, and he said, "It's the one that attacked the town where the young lady was back then, and according to the latest information we have, the area where the predators have been active recently...... In the 7th arrondissement! ”

"District 7?" Horn said, "Alan is going there right now. ”

"Yes, sir. Do you want to intercept the young master? ”

Horn looked at the clock on the wall, shook his head, and said, "It's too late, I'm afraid the public flyer has already set off." So be it, Mr. Helsing. You contact our family's personnel in the vicinity of Sector 7 and ask them to form a team to find Eren in case something happens. ”

"I'll do it right away."

It was only after Helsing's departure that the shaking of the study stopped. Horn took off his glasses, closed his eyes and whispered, "Is this a coincidence of fate?" It's at this time...... Lanny, you have to keep an eye on Alan and don't let him have any accidents. ”

It was already afternoon when the public flyship was on the airship apron in the seventh district, and after Alan got off the flyship, he took out his brain and looked at it. Between the town of Grey Bridge, where Peter's house is located, and the apron, there is a long, curvy dotted line. The dotted line passes through a large mountainous area, past a forest, and eventually leads to a valley near where the town of Greybridge is located.

Alan showed his pass to and from Babylon as proof that he had rented a superwild car from the airport and bought enough fuel to get back and forth. The SUV's chassis is noticeably taller, with steel bezes like the fangs of a beast, and the sound of a powerful engine suggests that it is well maintained, at least it has enough power to traverse the mountains and forests.

Sitting in this rugged car, Allen's figure looked a little thin, which worried the man who filled his tank with gas. Of course, it wasn't Allen who was worried, but the rental car. Although Allen has already paid a deposit, it is not easy to get a cheap car with good performance in the current situation.

Naturally, Alan didn't know this, and as soon as he finished refueling, he started the engine. After a scorching blast of air from the rear exhaust pipe, the wheels of the SUV turned vigorously and left the apron and drove out of the empty expanse. Alan simply put his brain next to the steering wheel, and the route shown on the brain was filtered, and this route bypassed several towns in the seventh arrondissement that were controlled by the Gate of Freedom, avoiding most of the troubles.

Nothing to say all the way.

Three days later, the town of Grey Bridge was in sight.

Greybridge is located under an unnamed valley with the remains of the bridge above it, from which the town of Greybridge is most likely named. The town is on the outskirts of the valley, and the townspeople grow crops in the valley and are completely self-sufficient. On the desolate surface, the town of Greybridge and the valley are no different from the world, and when one sees the flowers and plants of different colors in the valley from a distance on the high slopes, Alan can understand why the Peter family chose to settle here.

However, the town of Grey Bridge does not seem to be very peaceful today, and due to the low buildings, the town is almost as far as the eye can see. There is a square in the town that can be used for regular gatherings, and the only taller building in the square is a bell tower. There was a black flag on it, and Alan looked through a telescope, and the flag was painted with white paint with the pattern of an arch.

That's the sign of the Freedom Gate.

Alan frowned, there were soldiers on duty on the bell tower, and several soldiers in the square were walking around. There were about twenty soldiers stationed in the town, and it seemed that the town had let the Gate of Liberty take control. Alan put down his binoculars, took out Peter's necklace and looked at it, putting it back in his clothes. He drove the car to a secluded place, pulled on a tarp, and picked up dead branches and grass from nearby for a simple camouflage before walking down the hill.

Syllable!

A hand was slapped on his face, and the fat suddenly trembled. The man, who was as fat as a mountain boar, mounted a machine gun on his shoulder and used his other hand to ward off the mountain mosquitoes, complaining, "Damn, how long are we going to stay in this place where birds don't shit." According to me, wouldn't it be over if you just robbed the food from those people in the town, and you had to do business with them seriously, wouldn't this delay time? ”

Another man in a cowboy hat was wiping his rifle and said, "What's the solution, who made our captain Jean, he is a notoriously nice gentleman." ”

"It must be broken down here." The fat man pointed to his head and said, "Captain Jean always sees himself as a savior, if he can really save the world, we won't have to make any independent movements." ”

The two men were on duty at the checkpoint outside the town entrance, and they seemed to be soldiers at the Gate of Freedom. They have a word of nonsense to pass the time. Suddenly, the cowboy said "Huh" and said, "Look, we have guests coming." ”

A slightly thin figure appeared in their sight, apparently an adventurer on foot. He was wearing a short backrest and jeans, and his hair and face were covered with a scarf, revealing only a pair of ruby eyes to shield him from the wind and sand. He had a long box behind him, and he didn't know what it contained. However, the traveler's belt, two automatic pistols, and several magazines show that he is not as weak as he seems.

At the very least, he can reach Greybridge Town safely, and he must have some extraordinary ability.

"Zai?" Cowboy whispered.

The fat man smiled maliciously: "Zai, but you have to be measured." Maybe it's a tricky guy. ”

The cowboy whistled and said, "Something to kick the captain is not enough." ”

"I knew you weren't a good thing." The fat man scolded with a smile, pointed the machine gun on his shoulder forward, and shouted: "The people in front of you stop, Gray Bridge Town is temporarily under the jurisdiction of our Freedom Gate." You are not allowed to enter unless you have a priority. ”

The traveler said in a very young voice, "I'm looking for someone." My uncle Peter lives right in town. ”

He even gave a precise address.

The fat man glanced at his companion and said, "It's okay to let you in, but you must pay the customs clearance fee." After all, it's up to us to protect the town now. ”

"How much?" The traveler asked, after a moment of silence.

Both soldiers laughed.

The cowboy bared his yellow teeth and arched his hat with his rifle: "It depends on how much you can take." You see, it's not easy for us to protect this town, is it? ”

"I only have a few hundred dollars on me." The traveler seemed to be shy, and replied after a moment. R1058
