he came from the void

Kaisha's words made Kahn think deeply, something was not quite right, just like what Kaisha said, the animals should give signs before the earthquake came.

But last night was very peaceful, nothing strange happened, and even the skin armor didn't show any signs, as if it had malfunctioned.

"It may be man-made, just like the big explosion at the beginning of Zaun's birth. Someone detonated the fragile geological structure and caused this earthquake." Kahn explained to Kaisha, but he was trying to overturn the truth of the matter in his heart. fierce.

"Could it be Urgot who made it? He ignited the alchemy technology pipeline in the mine, blew up the prison, and escaped from the sinking hook mine."

"Kan, I'm ready, let's go." Kai'sa's voice interrupted his thoughts, Kahn temporarily suppressed this thought, and hurried out the door with Kai'sa.

Arriving at the overcrowded border market, the two of them stopped at the same time when they saw the crowded platform.

"There are so many people, how do we get there?" Kaisha felt a headache, and turned to Kahn, "Are we going down to bring them all up?"

"According to this level of density, children are easily trampled or scattered." Kahn glanced at the situation inside the screamer, and the passengers from Zaun had been squeezed to the point where they were lying on the sloping glass cabin. , if the cabin explodes suddenly, many people will die.

He shook his head and said, "Let's buy a gas mask up there and take it down."

"Okay, hurry up and buy it, it will be sold out if you go late."

The two ran to the grocery store on the edge of the market and bought more than a dozen gas masks in a row, emptying out the store's inventory, and then pushed through the crowd and approached the platform.

The crowd density of the platform is the densest, and it is also the hardest to squeeze through this section, but when entering the elevator cabin, it is much wider, and you can breathe a sigh of relief.

Because going to Zaun at this moment is risking your life, there will be far fewer passengers on the way down.

However, this breath could not be relieved for a long time. The interval between the screams was much shorter than usual. Kahn told Kai'Sa to put on the gas mask quickly, and they would soon sink into the poison area.

Looking down from a distance through the thick glass, Zaun's intertwined light and shadow have been silent, submerged in the poisonous gas at this moment, like a roll of dark green cloth stretched out on the rocky floor of the canyon.

The screeching machine didn't stop at the stations along the way, and went directly down to the trench area.The thick fog was blown away by steam and hot wind from the roaring machines, revealing terrified and desperate faces. Many poor people did not wear masks, and their faces were covered only with a piece of oil-stained rag.

Watching this scene, Kahn hid the gas mask he had brought down, lowered his head and staggered their sight, and followed the medical staff out of the hatch.

Chapter 512 The Not Optimistic Status Quo

On the platform in the gutter area, there are still many people around here, scrambling to escape the poisonous area with the scream.

It took some effort to squeeze through the crowd, and all the while Kahn felt hands reach into his bag of respirators, opening them all.

After finally squeezing out, there was no time to breathe a sigh of relief.

In the streets filled with poisonous gas, many people with trance-like expressions came out one after another, driven by instinct, just to sit screaming and go to the ground to take a breath of clean air.

In Zaun, there was something in the air, and now, after the gas leak, the air is a pervasive nightmare.

A stare stung his eyes, and he turned his head to see that it was a lonely street orphan with something no better than a rag wrapped around his face.He saw the bag in Kahn's hand and hoped that Kahn would give him a breathing mask and give him a chance to live.

"I'm sorry, I can't save everyone." Kahn avoided his gaze and hurried away from the platform.

There are only so many gas masks in total, he can only choose who to save, he can't save them all.

Arriving at the secret base of Zaan Mitong, he heard a coughing sound before entering.He knocked on the door, went in and saw that the children had almost no protection on their faces, and were directly exposed to the threat of poisonous gas. Some children were already lying on the bed, very weak.

"Don't you know that the poison gas leaked?" Kahn looked angry and worried.

"We know..." The group of children pointed to the exhaust fans in the factory building that were running at full capacity, but now there is no completely clean air in the gutter area, and no matter how they are emptied, they will not be free from the poisonous gas.

"It doesn't work at all! Do you think you can pass this time with patience?"

"Brother Ike is already working hard to make a filter device." Seeing the angry Kahn, Ayuna timidly stood up and explained.

"It's too late."

Kahn turned the bag upside down in agitation, and with a light shake, all the gas masks came out and scattered on the ground.

Seeing the pile of gas masks, the group of children froze for a moment, then realized that Kahn had put the life-saving straw in front of them, and immediately cheered and thanked, but was interrupted by a violent cough.

If you don't wear a gas mask, the chemicals in the air will leave a burning pain in your throat, your throat will become hoarse, and you will cough again and again when you shout hard.

"Okay! Stop screaming, put them on quickly! Kaisha, teach them how to put them on, and I'll go to the next workshop." After speaking, he opened the door and walked out with a gas mask.

"Hmm." Kai'Sa picked up a gas mask, glanced at the group of children, and beckoned to Anna: "You come here first."

……

When Kahn came to the work room, he saw that Ike was sweating profusely and coughing repeatedly, dismantling a damaged breathing filter device. Without saying a word, he threw the gas mask on the workbench, interrupting his work at hand.

"Put it on, don't die, the children still need you."

Ike stared blankly at him, but when Ike picked up the mask, his first reaction was not to put it on himself, but to ask if the other children had it.

"Others have it, so you should worry about yourself."

Seeing Ike finally put on the mask, Kahn breathed a sigh of relief.For his business, he was really worried.

Now that the gas masks have been distributed to everyone, it doesn't make sense for Ike to disassemble the breathing apparatus.

"I didn't expect you to send a batch of face masks, thank you so much." Ike's gratitude to Kahn was beyond words, and he asked: "Although I am very grateful, I still want to know why you came .”

"I usually have the habit of reading newspapers, and this accident is so big that I can't even think about it. Fortunately, we found out early, and if we came later, the masks would be sold out."

Kahn and Ike went back to the dormitory while talking, and Kaisha had helped the children put on masks, even Mundo.

In fact, with his special physique, it should be very difficult for him to be damaged by this level of poisonous gas. His almost abnormal self-healing ability will not kill him unless he is dismembered.

"There are gas masks, do you need any other supplies? Food and drink? I guess the water source is not clean now, and it needs to be filtered before drinking. There are also medicines. Some children seem to be in serious condition, and they can't bring them now. When they go to the doctor, they can only go and buy some antibiotics to top it off."

Kahn looked around, but he didn't find that there was enough food to survive the disaster.Although the most basic protection problems have been solved, food and medicine are still the resources they need to worry about, and this disaster will not pass so quickly.

"We do need some dry food and medicine, but don't bother, we can just go out and buy it ourselves."

Ike wanted to dismiss Kahn and the others, he couldn't let his benefactor be in danger because of him.

"Is it in Zaan? Because of the poisonous gas leak, I guess the food transportation chain coming down from above has been broken, and the food factories of all sizes in Zaan must have stopped working. You just go out to buy food now, probably already I can't buy anything." Kahn shook his head, disapproving of Ike's approach.

"Or hold on a little longer and ride with us on the Screech," Kai'Sa said.

"No, the top must be overcrowded now. And we already have masks, so we should just stay below, don't go up and compete with others for living space. Even if we go up, there may not be a place to accommodate us refugees." Ai Ke shook his head. The damage to the body caused by the poisonous gas is still unclear, but some of them have already been bedridden due to complications, and someone needs to stay and take care of them.

"Let's bring things down for you from above."

The influx of a large number of Zaun people into Picheng will also have an impact on the ecology above. Going up at this moment is not necessarily a good thing, it can only be said that they are temporarily out of danger.

"Let's go then. I have to go to Fangmu District. My parents work in a factory. I have to visit them." Ike asked the children to stay in the base and left with Kahn. .

"Scream doesn't go to the middle level now."

"The way up is not the only way to scream."

"Why aren't you at home when it's so important? Isn't family important?" Kahn asked.Ike is different from other children. He has a family and parents. He is also a child. He should actually stay with his parents at this moment.

"It's all important." Ike made this very clear. After all, children are not as well-informed as adults, and they will be at a loss when encountering this situation. Inundated with poisonous gas.

"I hope no one dies because of this accident," Ike said. "It's better not to have one."

Chapter 513 Rabid Patient

"Workshop forest area? Why do you want to come here?"

Kahn and Kai'Sa came here with Ike, looking at the large factories around them, quite puzzled.

"There is a track between the workshop forest area and the Fangmu area. On weekdays, some goods will be transported between the two areas by cable car. I can take these transport cable cars to find my parents." Ike explained, separated Even the energetic sound of a heavy gas mask can become unnaturally dull.

Having wandered the streets for many years, he already knows many shortcuts in Zaun.

"It's over there!" Ike said, pointing somewhere, and told the two to follow him quickly.

The visibility in the green poisonous fog was not high, but Kahn didn't see any cable car, so he could only follow Ike closely to avoid getting lost in the fog.

Then they came under a cable car, the cable car hovering in mid-air was as big as half a container.

"With such a big cable car, why don't you take all the kids to your house?" Kahn asked.

"Other children can be taken back, but what about Mondo?" Ike smiled bitterly. If Mondo was seen entering his house, they might be targeted by the Alchemy Baron in the future.

What is Alchemy Baron?That is the industrial oligarchy and gang boss, the real ruler of Zaun.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, let the cable car start. Where is the switch?"

"In the nearby factory building, go in and look for it."

The three came to a factory along the track, but the factory gate was locked tightly and outsiders were refused to visit.

Ike stood outside the door and yelled for a long time, but no one responded, so he could only push a wooden box not far away and climb over the wall to enter.

To his surprise, Kahn and Kai'Sa's skills are as good as death. Although they can be seen to be agile from their vigorous figures, they did not expect to be so agile.

As a person who has screamed countless times and successfully climbed the old hungry ghost to the top with his bare hands, it took a lot of effort for Ike to climb over the wall of the factory, but Kahn lifted Kaisha's soles and threw her to the wall , and then he took another run-up, kicked off the wall and grabbed the edge of the wall, turned over and jumped into the wall together with Kaisha.

At this moment, he deeply doubted whether the two were spies sent from other places.

However, these things are all unfounded guesses. After landing, Ike told Kahn: "The switch should be set somewhere in the workshop. Let's go in and look for it. After we find it, I will get on the cable car. If you don't go to Fangmu, you can do it." control switch."

"No problem." Kahn nodded, but it shouldn't be difficult to control the operation of the machine. If it doesn't work, let Ike teach it.

But as soon as he pushed the door of the workshop, Kahn felt something was wrong.

It was pitch black in the workshop, but not without a single person.Kahn raised his sunglasses, and through void vision, he saw a few workers huddled in the corner of the workshop, trembling tremblingly, and their condition was not right.

He tried to tell Ike not to move, but Ike had already turned on the light switch.

With a bang, the entire workshop was suddenly brightly lit, and then there was the sound of whistling fans, and the exhaust fan also started working.

Feeling the stimulation from the outside world, those workers stood up suddenly, their movements were very abrupt, and they approached the three of them with strange steps.

"So someone is there. I barged in after calling for a long time and no one responded. I'm sorry." Ike apologized hastily, but he didn't intend to leave, and he still had to take the cable car home.

"Turn off the light... turn off the fan...! Turn it off!" a burly worker shouted, his speech was broken and hoarse, accompanied by frequent hyperventilation, as if he was about to suffocate.

Such behavior is tantamount to exacerbating death in the poisonous fog, so it appears extremely weird.

"What's wrong with you?" As the workers got closer, Ike also noticed something was wrong.

The walking postures of these workers are extremely strange, and the local spasms make the whole body tremble continuously. Not only are they hyperventilating, but their mouths are still dripping with saliva.As long as you are a normal person, you can control your saliva from flowing out, right?But there were already people here who kept foaming at the mouth.

Not only that, but they also straightened their necks, their necks were stiff, their eyes were bloodshot and gleamed with a bloody red light, their faces were ferocious, and they were extremely scary.

"What's wrong with them?" Ike swallowed nervously, hoping that the well-informed Kahn beside him could give him an answer.While looking at these workers, a word flashed in Kahn's mind, and he blurted out.

"Rabies?"

"What's that?" Ike asked.

"An acute infectious disease with a fatality rate of up to [-]%. It is infected through wounds. The symptoms are specifically manifested as fear of wind, water, and wind. Once it develops, there is almost no possibility of survival... But I don't think this is really rabies, It's similar symptoms caused by toxins invading the brain, and the situation may be even worse. Ordinary rabies patients will not take the initiative to attack people...Damn, they are here!"

Kahn pulled Ike behind him and leaned against the door.Compared with Ike, he didn't have much nervousness on his face, and so did Kaisha, but his expression was a little more dignified.

While speaking, those workers had already leaned over, twisting their five fingers to show a strong aggressiveness.Ike was dragged by Kahn to the door, he asked in a panic, and deliberately lowered his voice: "Is it still useful to turn off the power now?"

"Try it." Kahn turned off all the switches, and the workshop suddenly fell into darkness and silence, and then the three quickly left the workshop and locked the door behind them.

After standing in front of the door and waiting for a while, Ike breathed a sigh of relief after noticing that there was no sound of slapping from inside the door: "It's a good thing they didn't come after them..."

"Don't relax, wear a gas mask, the poison gas leaking here is obviously more powerful, and it will have a great impact on the brain."

Standing outside the door, Kaisha looked at the silent factory, and suddenly asked: "How do Ike go back now? The cable car can't do it if the power is turned off, unless you don't go back."

"Why don't you go back, mom and dad, they should be fine as long as they stay at home." Ike retreated in his heart. Turning off the power should be the best way to calm these workers down, otherwise they will go crazy It's hard to say what happened.

These workers, Kahn, couldn't be cured. At first, they were thinking of letting them self-isolate like this, and when Ike went back to stay and forget it, suddenly heavy footsteps came from outside.

The steel hit the rocky ground step by step, making a dull echo, like the footsteps that can only be made by a robot.

"Someone is nearby, I'll go take a look."

Kahn quickly walked towards the factory gate, and glanced out through the crack of the door. When he saw the owner of the footsteps gradually revealing his figure in the poisonous fog, he was stunned on the spot.

"How could it be him?"

Chapter 514 Victor (the clown who the leader wants to go to heaven adds 1/10)

The person who appeared in the forest area of ​​the workshop at this moment was Victor, the strange prosthetic doctor that Kahn had mentioned before.Coincidentally, this is also the person Kahn doesn't want Ike to see the last time, and it happens to appear at this time.

"Who is it?" Ike, who didn't know, asked Kahn, who was upset.

Kahn turned his head, and Kaisha noticed that his expression was more dignified than the mental patient just now, so he kept silent and didn't talk much.

"It's nothing, just a passing search and rescue robot." Kahn lied casually, and now he has changed his mind.

Now, if you go out with Ike, you will definitely bump into Victor. In order to avoid their encounter, Ike must take the cable car home.

"Ike, you'd better go home. Your parents will be worried if they don't see you. It would be bad if they come down to the ditch to look for you." Kahn said meaningfully. If this happens, then It shows that this child is not filial, and Ike definitely doesn't want this.
