Jiang Baimian's reaction surprised Wang Fugui, Wei Te, Grena, and the two survivors who acted as guides, leaving them completely unable to understand.
After finally getting through the passage, exiting the cave, and finding a city ruin, shouldn't they be carefully exploring the surroundings? Why bother with a radio and listen to broadcasts?
Was this the behavior of a normal person?
Could it be that this team has some kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and they have to listen to a certain radio station at this particular time? No, maybe that radio station is run by their backers, and listening to the broadcast is actually receiving orders? Or is this the price Xue Shiyue paid? Wang Fugui, known for his extensive experience, quickly found two reasonable explanations.
Long Yuehong and Bai Chen also had a deep impression of the 119.2 frequency. Although they hadn't directly encountered that kind of silent and terrifying influence, hearing Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao talk about it afterward gave them a ghost-story feeling.
Moreover, it was closely related to the Wasteland Ruin 13, guarded by the "First City" regular army!
Could we be so unlucky… We clearly entered the mountain and didn't go northeast… Long Yuehong had originally hoped to find a secret base, unearth some valuable information and items. The former could be reported to the company, waiting for contribution point rewards, while the latter could be used to repay debts. Who knew that the ruin discovered by the team was a secret, but too secret. The danger level skyrocketed.
At this moment, Grena used the loudspeaker to broadcast the content he had received:
"Everyone, today we will mainly talk about the maintenance of refrigerators and the yin and yang changes of the Dao..."
The familiar magnetic voice echoed, making Jiang Baimian's scalp tingle slightly.
She quickly said to Grena:
"Change to another location to monitor again, and find out the approximate distance between the 'Dao and Appliance Repair' radio station and us."
"Dao and Appliance Repair"... Wang Fugui and others were increasingly confused as they listened.
They could understand every word individually, but when put together, they couldn't figure out what it was all about.
Based on this confusion, they cautiously remained still, not forcing their way out of the park to explore this city ruin.
Jiang Baimian's solemn expression made them feel that things might not be so simple.
They had similar experiences in the past. At this time, it was better to miss something than to risk it.
After a while, Grena, who had changed locations, walked back and emitted a standard baritone:
"That radio station is no more than two kilometers away from us."
This… Although Long Yuehong had a little psychological preparation for this answer, he still felt his eyelids twitch and his heart beat faster.
They had really entered Wasteland Ruin 13, and were near the "Dao and Appliance Repair" radio station!
Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao, who was not afraid but delighted and full of exploring "spirit", and exhaled:
"Withdraw from here.
"Let's take our time to consider this."
Her "take our time to consider this" meant first returning to the forward camp, reporting this matter to the company, seeing what the company knew and thought about Wasteland Ruin 13, what kind of feedback they would give, and then, based on the feedback, deciding whether to come again. If so, then prepare and choose to explore during the day.
Of course, if the danger was too great, then it would end here, and the company would send someone else.
"Withdraw…" Wang Fugui muttered to himself, keenly aware of the surging danger in the air.
He quickly said to the "Old Task Force":
"Is there a problem here?"
"Have you ever heard of Wasteland Ruin 13?" Because Wang Fugui had always been very friendly, Jiang Baimian decided to remind them a few times.
This wouldn't harm the "Old Task Force" itself in any way.
Gray, who was shivering from the cold beside Wang Fugui, was shocked when he heard Jiang Baimian's rhetorical question:
"This is Wasteland Ruin 13?"
As a lone hunter who was active in the area around First City all year round, he knew a lot about the rumors of Wasteland Ruin 13.
"Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded solemnly, "Now it seems that the white giant wolf should have run out from here."
This could explain why such a special mutated creature suddenly appeared in the North Shore Mountains.
Hearing that the white giant wolf was related to Wasteland Ruin 13, Wang Fugui and others nodded slightly, feeling that this was reasonable.
Nothing would pop out for no reason.
At the same time, they recalled the distance and direction of their walk, and felt more and more that this should be Wasteland Ruin 13.
"I don't need to say more about how dangerous this place is, right? Even if you want to take a risk and make a gamble, I suggest you go back first, prepare, and then come back." Jiang Baimian didn't ramble, and directly gave the "Old Task Force's" opinion. As for whether the group of lone hunters listened or not, she didn't care at all.
Doing this, the "Old Task Force" had already been kind and righteous!
Wang Fugui pondered for a moment and said to Wei Te, Gray, and others:
"I also think we can't be reckless, let's go back and talk about it. Such a big city ruin won't grow legs and run away."
Wei Te, Gray, and others were a little hesitant. After all, Wasteland Ruin 13 likely had exceptionally rich supplies and priceless intelligence.
And what usually prevented ruin hunters from exploring here was not those terrifying rumors, but the "First City" regular army that blocked this area.
At this time, Shang Jianyao suddenly smiled:
"The 'First City' officers are so stupid, they didn't even send anyone to guard here."
Hearing this sentence, Wei Te and others' expressions changed:
If the "First City" regular army controlled this city ruin, it was impossible not to send troops to guard such an entrance!
Since they didn't, it meant that their blockade was only limited to the periphery, indicating that their exploration of Wasteland Ruin 13 was not so in-depth.
Even the "First City" regular army could only do this, the danger hidden in Wasteland Ruin 13 could be imagined!
"Okay, let's go back first." Wei Te immediately responded to Wang Fugui's suggestion.
Gray and others no longer hesitated.
The two teams turned around and walked towards the entrance of the passage.
Looking again at this time, they found that there used to be double metal doors here, but they had been opened by someone.
"The radio station you were listening to just now is related to this place?" On the way, Wang Fugui asked sincerely.
Jiang Baimian nodded:
"Yes, a very dangerous radio station. It is located here."
"It can affect everyone who hears the broadcast content..." Shang Jianyao described the situation in a ghost-story tone.
Wang Fugui, Gray, and Wei Te's eyes suddenly widened slightly.
They had either never heard of such a thing, or only had some understanding through rumors, and had never actually encountered it.
The mystery and power of the radio station owner made people shudder just by imagining it.
As the two teams moved forward in silence, a voice suddenly came from Shang Jianyao's tactical backpack:
"Hey, I really miss you…"
The moving and sad song quickly echoed.
Long Yuehong turned his head in surprise and confusion, subconsciously asking Shang Jianyao:
"Why are you suddenly playing music?"
Is this really okay in this kind of atmosphere?
Shang Jianyao, who was being watched by many eyes, was not embarrassed, but full of surprise:
"My little speaker is alive! It can play music on its own!"
As he spoke, he tried to take off his tactical backpack.
Hearing this sentence, Jiang Baimian, who believed that Shang Jianyao would not lie about such things, changed her expression slightly and suddenly thought of something.
She quickly turned her gaze to Grena.
Grena's eyes flickered with red light, and he had already stopped.
In the endless night where starlight sprinkled, in the desolate environment overgrown with weeds, he opened his mouth and made a slightly smiling sound:
"The Dao is in circuits, circuit boards, and appliances."
This voice was completely different from Grena's original slightly synthetic baritone. It was magnetic, deep, and obviously emotional.
It was as if it was being broadcast directly through the radio.
Hearing this sentence and seeing this kind of Grena, Long Yuehong's pupils dilated sharply, and a name flashed in his mind:
Wu Meng!
Wu Meng, the owner of the "Dao and Appliance Repair Radio Station!"
