Chapter 23: Vault 9

"There is no place to stay. Get out of here immediately."

The husky man's eyes flashed fiercely, and he pushed his thumb forward to open the safety device of the metal gun.

"Hey, what are you holding in your hand?"

The husky man looked at Su Xiao's finger, and a small section of the test tube was exposed.

"Something that can save your life."

Su Xiao threw the test tube in her hand, and the husky man immediately jumped back, and the glass test tube fell on the soft field.

"Drink it if you don't want to die. The feeling of your organs being corroded will be unpleasant."

"Do you think... it's possible?"

The husky man smiled. He was about to crush the glass test tube with his foot when the stinging pain in his chest stopped him from moving.

Su Xiao can regulate and cure Sha's hidden diseases, not to mention the problem of the husky man. The opponent's organs are eroded by some kind of energy, and that energy is the energy used by the opponent in fighting.

"Is it radial or spotty?"

Su Xiao snapped her fingers twice, and the husky man turned his head in disgust.

"Spot, shape."

The husky man pursed his lips. There was indeed a black spot in his left eye.

The metal gun was still pointed at Su Xiao, but the husky man had already bent down to pick up the test tube on the ground.

Picking up the test tube, the husky man pushed open the cork with his thumb, brought the test tube to his nose and smelled it.

"Die from organ erosion within a month, or take a gamble by drinking it, your choice."

Su Xiao looked at the husky man with interest.

"I choose to kill this suspicious guy like you first."

The husky man grinned, showing a few yellow teeth.

After a few seconds, the husky man put away his smile, raised his chin, and a girl in green grass clothes got up from the ground.

"I'm dead, shoot now."

"You really want to drink this? Are you crazy?"

The girl in green grass clothes was obviously a little surprised.

"I would rather die than live now. If it wasn't so embarrassing to shoot myself in the jaw, I would have done that."

The husky man jumped into the livestock pen, grabbed a spotted cow, and poured some medicine into the spotted cow.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the spotted cow was not dead. Seeing this, the husky man ignored the cow's saliva at the mouth of the test tube and drank the medicine in several gulps.

The husky man didn't care about Su Xiao's origins, nor did he care whether he would die after drinking this potion. The burning sensation in his chest was already driving him crazy. More than 40% of the hunters in the shelter had similar problems, and there was nothing they could do.

"Ahem~"

The hoarse man felt discomfort in his throat, and he began to cough continuously. Soon, he coughed up a large piece of black phlegm.

"Hoo, ho, ho..."

The hoarse man breathed heavily, with tears and runny nose coming out. He felt very strange now, as if he had coughed out the mucus blocked in his organs. This sense of relief made him want to lie on the ground and sleep without caring about anything.

It had been a month, no, a month and 17 days since he had slept well. He could only sleep for 3 to 4 hours a day before being tortured and awakened by the burning sensation of his organs.

"Duanya, hello, talk, how are you?"

The girl in green grass clothes opened her mouth, ready to shoot at any moment.

The husky man wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, stood up from the ground, and came to Su Xiao.

"Doctor, please save my brother. As long as my brother recovers, I will be your dog from now on."

"Wow (not rare)."

BuBoWang called out to the husky man, Broken Tooth.

"Of course, no problem. Where is your brother?"

Su Xiao was in a good mood, because sneaking into Vault 9 was much easier than imagined. Extraordinary people in this world would suffer huge side effects when using their abilities, that is, their organs would be eroded by energy.

Su Xiao previously thought that the broken tooth was just an accident, but when the other party told her that her younger brother was also suffering from corrosion, and that the girl in green grass clothes had a severely eroded liver, Su Xiao knew that it belonged to an extraordinary person in this world.

FAQ.

"Please come with me."

Broken Tooth's attitude changed drastically. Yes, this is the law of the jungle on Siren Planet. In other words, capable people will not be rejected wherever they go.

Following Broken Tooth, Su Xiao soon arrived at a large slum. It’s no wonder that Baja called this slum. Within a few kilometers, there were tents built with wooden planks, and higher-end buildings were made of iron sheets.

There are rust spots on it.

Walking on the dirt road strewn with garbage, Su Xiao saw a man standing in front of the tents on both sides. Their clothes were in tatters, their hair was unkempt, and the calluses on their hands showed that the fields outside were cultivated by them.

Bang!

Blood splattered everywhere, and a butcher covered in flesh and belly stood in front of the chopping board, splitting open a skinned animal leg.

Several children with dirty faces stood nearby, staring at the pieces of raw meat without blinking.

"I'm always so kind."

The butcher threw the cleanly shaved bones at the children, who were robbed wildly. This barbaric world has never been gentle to anyone.

"Doctor, our territory is pretty good, right?"

Broken Ya opened his mouth and looked at the children with great interest. He also lived like this when he was a child. No, it was worse than this. He could never meet such a kind-hearted butcher.

"Although it can't be compared with the big shelters like the Firehead Gang, there aren't many of us starving to death, so it's good to be alive."

Broken Tooth spoke of the harsh environment that people suffered in a nonchalant manner.

"arrive."

Broken Tooth stopped in front of a square underground entrance of a concrete structure. The underground entrance was about ten meters wide and eight meters high. The slope was very gentle, and a cool breeze blew out from inside.

Walking into the underground entrance, more than thirty meters deep underground, Su Xiao discovered that there was a different world here.

Through a giant metal door, Su Xiao saw an underground city. Most of the buildings here were made of stone + concrete. There were roads enough for vehicles to pass between the buildings. Huge light bulbs hung above. As for the origin of the electricity, it was very difficult to understand.

Possibly magnetism, which was the crowning achievement of mankind before the Great Tribulation.

Obviously, this is Shelter No. 9, and the slums above are filled with coolies and victims.

As for why Vault 9 was built underground, this is very common sense. How could humans not learn a lesson when they encountered such a disaster a hundred years ago? That is based on the experience of tens of billions of people. Do not live on the Siren Planet.

on the surface.

On the ceiling of the shelter, metal pipes more than two meters thick are neatly arranged. This is a refrigeration device. Even if a catastrophe strikes for the second time, it can keep the underground temperature below 20°. Humanity will not succumb a second time.

Due to natural disasters.

The huge exhaust fan blades rotated, and an off-road tank sped past Su Xiao on the underground street and headed straight for the exit of the shelter.

"Doctor, this way."

Duanya sent the girl in green grass away and gave her a potato. Duanya tilted his head and signaled Su Xiao to follow him first.

"Call me Medicine Master, Holy Flame Medicine Master."

"Good doctor, ah, pharmacist."

Broken Ya suddenly slapped himself. Although this guy was thin and thin, he was a ruthless person and would even hit himself when he got angry.

After walking in the underground shelter for half an hour, Su Xiao arrived at Duanya's residence. The shelter was much larger than expected.

Bang, bang, bang.

Broken teeth took continuous photos of the door panel of my house.

"Open the door, you bastard."

Duan Ya had an angry look on his face. Obviously, his attitude towards his own brother was not good, but even so, he still took the risk of being executed by the leader and concealed Su Xiao's ability because he knew if it was revealed, it would be his turn.

It is really unknown whether his brother will be cured.

The iron door, with its paint peeling off badly, was opened, and a young man with heavy bags under his eyes stood inside the door, looking lifeless.

"You're not dead yet."

The gloomy boy spoke and sat on a mechanical exoskeleton.

"You're not dead, how could I die?"

Broken Tooth sneered.

"I have some bad news for you," Duanya walked into his humble home, picked up a kettle and drank heavily. The wooden table next to him was filled with metal parts.

"What?"

The gloomy young man raised his eyes and looked at Broken Tooth.

"You don't have to die, but I will die."

After drinking enough, Broken Tooth let out a long sigh of relief.

"..."

The gloomy boy was stunned for a moment. The next moment, the gloomy boy rushed forward, grabbed Broken Tooth's collar, and growled: "Are you kidding me?"

The gloomy boy's face was trembling. He knew that his brother never joked.

"There are 12 days' worth of food left. After I die, don't hate anyone, otherwise you won't live long."

As he spoke, Broken Ya knelt down on one knee and raised a metal blunderbuss in front of Su Xiao.

"Mr. Pharmacist, please save my brother now, save him immediately."

Su Xiao glanced at Broken Tooth and then at the gloomy boy. Things were developing more and more interestingly.

Bang!

The irons were knocked away and twisted to the ground. A figure covered in blood was thrown into the room. It was the girl in green grass clothes from before.

"This gentleman, our leader invites you."

A strong man wearing a mechanical exoskeleton and at least two meters tall walked into the room.
