Civilization Paradise

Chapter 177 The Choice (First Update)
A few minutes later.

Long Ming finally recovered and struggled to his feet. He shook his head and looked at Moruka's corpse.

It turned out that Moruka had been broken into pieces.

That spinning grenade was incredibly powerful. If I hadn't been wearing that exoskeleton armor, I might be lying here right now.

"Whoo~"

Long Ming let out a long sigh of relief, then walked to the weapon rack, picked up a SAC-01 automatic rifle, and casually grabbed a spinning grenade.

After doing all that, he walked toward the small hill of ore.

He soon arrived at the foot of the ore mountain, where he saw the little monster lying motionless on it, as if it had died.

However, Long Ming did not let his guard down, after all, there were already precedents to learn from.

He decisively picked up the newly acquired automatic rifle, ready to test its power.

bang bang~
A hail of bullets pounded the monster, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere!
Long Ming emptied the magazine in the gun very quickly.

Long Ming looked at the automatic rifle in his hand in surprise.

Although this gun has an unattractive design and a lot of recoil, its power is truly formidable.

It's just a pity that he finds it very inconvenient to use.

However, Long Ming didn't dwell on it any longer. He took out a spinning grenade and threw it onto the corpse of the small monster.

Boom~
With a massive explosion, the monster was blown to pieces.

"Ah."

Long Ming nodded in satisfaction. If he still didn't die, he would admit defeat.

After eliminating all potential hazards, Long Ming turned around and began a comprehensive search of the reserve depot.

More than an hour later.

Long Ming searched the entire storage warehouse inside and out.

However, nothing of significant value was found.

Although 80% of the supplies in the depot had been taken, the remaining quantity was still considerable, with nearly 500 automatic rifles alone, not to mention bullets and spinning grenades.

Besides that, there are the production equipment in the manufacturing room.

Overall, this reserve is quite good.

But now it's Long Ming's turn to be in trouble. There are so many things here that he simply can't move them all.

Although this place is well-hidden and won't be discovered in the short term, it will definitely be found eventually.

Others won't give up just because you discovered it first.

But it doesn't seem very realistic to hire someone to move it myself.

After all, having no power or reliable people, one can only spend a lot of money to find them on the market.

Whether the people they bring in will obey them or become envious remains to be seen.

Thinking of this, Long Ming prepared to leave to find Luo Xue.

He planned to have Luo Xue bring people over to move this place away.

Regardless of the circumstances, Luo Xue is fair in her dealings with people and things, and she will definitely reap the benefits.

The things here are useless to him, but they're good for him to sell.

Long Ming then walked to the weapon rack and looked at the SAC-01 automatic rifles displayed there, feeling somewhat troubled.

To be honest, he really wasn't used to this gun, but its power was just too great.

In the end, Long Ming compromised, putting the carbine and the shadow into his backpack, replacing them with two SAC-01 automatic rifles which he hung on both sides of the backpack, and then picking up a bunch of spinning grenades and stuffing them into the backpack.

After doing all that, Long Ming took some spinning grenades and prepared to put them on his person. Just as he was wondering where to hang them on his person...

Long Ming suddenly realized that the spinning grenades were naturally attracted to his waist.

"Magnetic?"

Long Ming said with delight.

He tested it repeatedly and found that it really was magnetic and very secure.

No wonder there are no hanging rings; there's no need for them at all.

Long Ming decisively took several more and attached them to his body, forming a belt. Once everything was ready, Long Ming turned and left the storage room.

After a while.

Long Ming climbed up the cliff face using the nylon rope.

He looked around to make sure there was no danger, then untied the rope and put it away.

After doing all this, Long Ming tried to turn off the exoskeleton mechanical armor, Night Demon.

This equipment is good, but it consumes a lot of energy. Originally, it had 30% of its energy, but now it only has 25%.

Just as Long Ming was operating the equipment, he suddenly discovered that it had three modes.

No-power mode: Power source is turned off, providing only basic defense and support.

Micro-power mode: Provides partial power assistance, but some functions are limited.

Performance Mode: The exoskeleton provides full-power power assistance, enhancing the user in all aspects.

Long Ming then selected the no-power mode and immediately felt his body sink.

This exoskeleton is quite heavy; if my strength hadn't increased significantly, I might not have been able to adapt to it.

Long Ming stretched for a moment, then turned around and returned the way he came.

The next morning.

Long Ming emerged from the forest.

He found his hidden off-road motorcycle, then rode away.

Seven hours later.

Long Ming sped along the highway on his off-road motorcycle, heading towards the ruins marked by the falling snow.

He saw many vehicles exploring along the way.

The people in these vehicles were all stunned when they saw Long Ming, and they exclaimed in amazement.

"Holy crap, look at that guy on that off-road motorcycle up ahead!"

"Am I seeing things? What kind of cool gear is he wearing?"

"It looks a lot like mechanical armor, but such a complete set is still very rare."

"I'm jealous!"

At that moment, a black SUV accelerated and caught up with Long Ming. Then the window rolled down, and a man wearing sunglasses and a plaid shirt, who seemed to have a good self-esteem, excitedly asked...

"Hey bro, your gear looks awesome! Where did you get it?"

I found it nearby.

After giving a curt reply, Long Ming turned the accelerator and sped away.

"Holy crap, I found this around here? I'm rich!"

The man immediately braked, pulled the car over to the side of the road, and got out with his companion to start searching.

Long Ming glanced at the other person's actions in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but shake his head.
-
The ruins of the town of Kashain.

In the center of a row of bungalows, a pack of Bloodbreath Dogs, with heads resembling wolfhounds, bodies covered in raised red bumps, and sharp claws and teeth, viciously attacked Luo Xue and the others.

Luo Xue and the others raised their guns and fired fiercely.

bang bang~
The bullets hit the Bloodbreath Dogs, creating small holes, and it took a long time to kill one, making it very ineffective.

At that moment, a Bloodhound broke through the hail of bullets, pounced on a soldier, and bit his neck.

"what!"

A scream rang out.

Upon seeing this, Luo Xue rushed forward at lightning speed, kicked away the Blood Breath Dog that had pounced on the soldier, and shot it dead with her gun.

Unfortunately, the soldier who was bitten on the neck still died.

"No, our firearms are too weak!"

Fu Fuqing shouted at Luo Xue with a very ugly expression.

The firearms they used were brought from another world, and their power was quite good, enough to barely take down these Bloodbreath Dogs, but the weapons of the soldiers below were not so good.
