Volume 1 Endless Wilderness Section 146 Encounter
While shocked, Chen Xing also felt a little relieved. Finally, he was able to explain the matter about the steam silkworms clearly without being secretive. As long as he told his third uncle, the other party would notify other people, thus avoiding the disaster.
However, after a brief thought, he decided to suppress the matter first. Because if the report was reported, Leander Ralph, the elder of the principality in charge of the exploration operation, would order a stop and re-evaluate the safety. In this way, he would not be able to seize the opportunity.
Take advantage of the opportunity and get the "antiques" in the diary.
Two days later, Chen Xing led the team into a new area. The rooms here are all hexagonal and arranged in a honeycomb shape. There are a large number of electronic equipment and various types of glassware, including biology, chemistry, etc.
Physics. It is not difficult to determine that this is the research area of No. 65 Underground Survival Center.
"Check carefully and don't miss any detail!" Chen Xing ordered. No one knew what happened that year and what kind of dangers were hidden in the darkness. After entering the research institute, he became more and more cautious.
The speed of exploration slowed down, and it took the group most of a day to explore two rooms. Of course, they also found a lot of valuable things. In addition to commemorative things, there were also some rare ores, or
There are all kinds of equipment made of rare metals, worth thousands of gold coins.
Chen Xing removed a ruby as big as an egg from an old laser transmitter.
[Ruby, made by craftsmanship before the Cataclysm, about 196 grams, purity unknown]
[Market price estimate: 856~921 gold coins (Orchid Town), 877~962 gold coins (Dragonstone Town)]
He glanced left and right to make sure no one was paying attention, then quietly stuffed it into his pocket.
At the same time, a Ye Yang family soldier pressed his face against the iron door of the next room. These iron doors are twenty to thirty centimeters thick and can withstand great impact.
"I seem to hear something." After listening for a while, the soldier turned around and said.
"What's the sound?" the teammate next to him asked.
The soldier frowned and thought for a while, then said, "I don't know, it's rustling like leaves blown by the wind, or like running water."
"Are there any leaves here?" said his teammate, "Did you hear wrongly?"
"Maybe." The soldier listened close to the door for a while and found nothing unusual, so he turned the wheel on the door and opened the iron door.
"Kekeke..."
Along with the harsh friction sound, dust continued to fall from the cracks in the door.
"Help, this thing is completely rusted." "Okay." "One, two, three, harder!" The two soldiers worked together and finally turned the wheel to the end. With a "click", the iron door opened inward.
And the moment the door was opened, a black tide spewed out, and a large number of black spots splashed around. Looking closely, they turned out to be densely packed black beetles! They were only the size of fingernails, with sharp teeth on their mouthparts, and on their backs.
The elytra spread out to both sides, beating the membrane wings at a high frequency, making a dense buzzing sound.
A swarm of beetles flew towards them. The two soldiers were unable to avoid them and were covered in them in an instant.
"ah!"
The two screamed in horror and scratched with their hands, but in vain.
"Chi-chi chi!" The beetles let out a high-pitched chirp as they tore open their skin and burrowed under the cortex.
The expressions of the two soldiers became extremely distorted, with small bumps bulging on their faces, as if they had boils, and they kept moving around, which was scary to see. Others noticed and backed away, not daring to step forward to help.
[Corpse (normal)*???????]
[Vitality:1/1]
[Innate ability: Heart-eating]
[Viruses that may be carried: zombie disease]
"withdraw!"
Chen Xing glanced at the information on the black watch and immediately retreated with his men.
In the blink of an eye, the two soldiers were silent. More corpses poured out of the door, like black water pouring on the ground, toward the crowd.
"Whoever has an incendiary bomb, throw it away!" Chen Xing shouted, tearing off the incendiary bomb from his belt, biting open the tab, and throwing it toward the back.
The can-shaped object fell into the group of zombies in an arc, and then with a "bang" sound, a ball of fire rose up. The zombies seemed to be very afraid of fire, and separated into two parts like water flow, bypassing the flames and then gathered together.
Together.
Seeing that it was useful, the soldiers pulled off the incendiary grenades one after another and threw them over. The flames together temporarily blocked the corpse's path.
"Pyro, here are some fire-breathing soldiers!"
After a while, Chen Xing rushed out of the tunnel and ran towards the high ground where his third uncle was, while shouting at the Ye Yang family soldiers standing guard outside.
Three tall flamethrowers soon arrived. They were wearing plastic armor and welding masks, carrying liquefied fuel bottles on their backs, holding flamethrowers in their hands, and their whole body equipment weighed seventy or eighty kilograms. They
Taking heavy steps, we walked into the tunnels one after another.
Fire-breathing soldiers are generally served by combat soldiers. They are strong and muscular, and are accustomed to close combat.
"tumultuous!"
Pillars of high-temperature fire spit out, and wherever they went, the corpses retreated one after another.
"Burn them!" the soldiers following behind couldn't help shouting. They were all frightened just now.
The corpse crickets emitted a sharp insect chirp and continued to retreat back, like a tide. The hot air flow spread in all directions through the ventilation ducts, gradually attracting attention from other parties.
On the other side of the underground research institute, a group of soldiers were squatting and walking slowly in the wide passage.
"It's so hot." "What's going on?" "It seems to be in that direction." The soldiers quickly found the direction of the heat source and walked towards the research institute.
About half an hour later, Chen Xing's team encountered another expedition team.
I don't know whether they were overly frightened or intentional. As soon as the two sides met, the other side opened fire without any hesitation. Bullets came like raindrops. The oil bottle of the fire-breathing soldier walking in the front was hit and exploded into pieces.
A ball of fire.
Chen Xing had no choice but to order a counterattack. The passageway of the research institute was very wide and could accommodate an eight-wheel truck, but there were no obstacles. The soldiers could only lie on the ground and fight hard.
In one confrontation, Chen Xing lost more than ten soldiers. However, the opponent's firepower did not weaken at all. His own bullets seemed to hit an invisible barrier and fell to the ground with a thin clatter.
Chen Xing quickly thought of Roy Moore from Crow City, whose "Ice Shield Technique" had such an effect.
"Damn it!" Chen Xing gritted his teeth and cursed, climbed to the back, took off the "Hunting Elephant" sniper rifle from Xiao Yang, set it up, concentrated his energy, launched psychic shooting, then stacked the trio, and fired out with one shot!
"boom!"
With a low roar, the barrier shattered into pieces like glass and turned into dots of star sand. Immediately afterwards, bullets swarmed in, beating the soldiers at the rear until they kept wailing.
"Cease fire quickly, we are all our own people!"
Chapter completed!
