Hold on, the system and I have never been angry
Chapter 109: 4 shots of fire
When Qiansui thought of the scene just now, his eyes almost went dark. He had seen many broken limbs and pieces of meat, but the scene of people eating people was particularly disgusting. But he was worried about leaving his host alone, so he plucked up his courage and said, "I'll go with you."
"it is good."
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, two figures, one large and one small, quietly pried open the window and entered the store. The kitchen had been cleaned by then, and there was nothing wrong to see.
After looking at each other, Qiansui shook his head: "The scanning function is ineffective."
Lu Jinzhao nodded and knocked carefully on the wall and the ground with the end of the knife handle, trying to find the non-solid place by the knocking sound.
"Dong", "Dong", "Dong", the sounds are fine and continuous.
After knocking around, I finally found an empty door under the sink. I reached out and felt around but didn't find any mechanism, so I guessed it was a sensor door. I used the handle of a knife to push off the wall, revealing a gap in the wall, and pried it in with the tip of the knife, but it didn't move at all.
High tech, annoying.
He pulled out a pistol and fired several shots, causing the washbasin embedded in the wall to fly into pieces. After a few kicks, he successfully blew a hole in the wall that was as big as a person.
Qiansui floated over first: "It's a base after all, but aren't the protective measures a bit poor? We made such a big noise but no one showed up. Is it a human or a ghost? Please at least make a sound."
"Shh." Lu Jinzhao put his index finger in front of his lips, signaling it not to make any sound.
The tunnel was dim, and his eyes quickly adjusted to the dim environment. A path about one person wide extended downwards, with mold and moss growing on the walls. The further he went in, the more humid the air became, with a pungent stench. The ground was slippery, and every step was accompanied by splashes of sewage. Lu Jinzhao walked carefully, trying not to step on any unknown objects.
As he went deeper, he found many rooms on both sides of the tunnel, which were closed by heavy iron bars. Through the iron bars, there were several humans who were breathing out more than breathing in. They were bound by iron chains locked on the wall and could not move freely.
Those people were thin, gaunt, and had dull eyes. Some had lost their arms, legs, and eyes. Their wounds were not treated effectively, and the surrounding environment was dirty and messy, so the wounds were seriously infected and emitted an unbearable stench.
Perhaps they did not have eyesight strong enough to see through the darkness, or perhaps Lu Jinchao's footsteps were too light, lighter than their heavy breathing, and no one noticed the outsider.
Or maybe, they have lost hope, no longer struggle, no longer resist, just lie there quietly, let time pass, wait for death to come.
Sometimes having an overly sensitive sense of smell is not a good thing. Lu Jinzhao raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, and walked quickly through the long corridor that was like hell on earth.
After the young man and the black cat walked away, several young men and women holding torches and weapons appeared at the entrance. They heard the explosion and came to see it out of curiosity, but they found a secret passage.
One of the young men looked at the gloomy wind inside and swallowed his saliva, "Brother Mu, what should we do? Should we continue to follow?"
The burly man standing at the front frowned and thought for a moment, "Follow. The barrier has been closed. It's not a good idea to be trapped in the town. Let's see if there is any other way out here."
Several people moved forward slowly together, not daring to be careless.
The people inside the prison who had never seen the sun suddenly saw the fire. Those who were still able to move struggled to the iron gate, stretched out their hands towards them, and made unpleasant roars.
“Ah…Ah!——”
This was enough to scare several people so much that they waved their torches vigorously, trying to scare away the person inside the door.
Lü Haimu, the leader, raised a torch and moved closer, illuminating a few faces of people who were pleading. Perhaps because of his damaged and degenerated vocal cords, Lü Haimu did not understand what they wanted to say. He could only guess that they were asking for help. He hesitated for a moment, took a few steps back, and said, "We can't save ourselves, so we can't save you."
The people behind Lu Haimu couldn't bear to watch any longer, so they took a step forward and followed him, leaving the place at a faster speed.
At the end of the dungeon-like corridor, there was a roughly excavated cave with a high ceiling and walls covered with strange rocks and stalactites, which glowed faintly in the dim light.
Attracted by the beautiful scenery, several people walked into the cave.
After walking for an unknown distance, they finally saw the main body emitting strange light. One of them recognized that the crystals in the cave were a kind of expensive stone, which was considered hard currency in the universe. He excitedly took out tools and started cutting. He didn't dare to speak too loudly for fear of causing a landslide in the cave. He lowered his voice but couldn't hide his excitement: "Do you know how much this thing costs per gram? 200,000 universal coins! It's conservatively estimated that there are several hundred kilograms here. Let's make money!"
Almost everyone was immersed in the joy of making a fortune and started digging. But Lu Haimu did not dare to let his guard down. He noticed some bones and remains scattered on the ground of the cave. These remains did not look like animals, but human beings. An ominous premonition rose in his heart instantly. There was a high possibility that there was some danger hidden in the cave.
Just as he was hesitating whether to return to the original place, a strange sound came into his ears, like the chewing and low roar of some creature. Lu Haimu tightly grasped the weapon in his hand and looked carefully in the direction of the sound.
A huge monster was squatting on the ground, tearing a piece of human flesh with its sharp teeth.
Lu Haimu was horrified, and intuitively felt that this was the body of the young man who had just brought the black cat.
The monster had thick skin, and the huge flesh worms were wriggling slowly. The pair of blood-red eyes on the claws on both sides of its body revealed its cruelty.
The monster was chewing food and didn't seem to notice them. The few of them took a deep breath, lightened their steps, and tried to retreat slowly. It seemed wiser to return the same way they came.
Before they could retreat a few meters, a rustling sound came from above their heads, and turbid and foul-smelling liquid fell from the sky, covering them all.
Several people subconsciously looked up and saw that it was the young man with the black cat on his shoulder who deliberately poured the liquid in a human skull on them. One of the women with a bad temper seemed to be about to curse, but Lu Haimu covered her mouth tightly and said, "Keep your voice down, don't attract the monster!"
The woman reluctantly closed her mouth, took off the water bag from her waist and started to clean the mucus.
A pleasant male voice came from above my head: "Wash it off if you want to die."
Lu Haimu asked in confusion: "Who are you and why are you splashing water on us?"
Lu Jinzhao bent his right leg, supported himself with his left hand, and lazily sat on the top of the stone above the heads of several people, looking down from above: "You are not sleeping in the middle of the night and come to follow me. What's wrong with splashing you?"
The woman behind Lu Haimu seemed to be going crazy, pointing at him and started to curse: "Are you fucking sick? How did we offend you? It was you who made the noise and attracted our attention, if you have the guts, don't let us find you!"
Unable to accept anyone insulting his host, Qiansui picked up the skull beside him and poured all the remaining liquid on the woman's face: "Shh, don't shout, be careful not to be discovered by the monsters. This is the hatching liquid of the monster cubs, which can temporarily cover up your smell. If you miss, just wash it off."
The woman was caught off guard and drank a mouthful of mucus. Her face changed drastically and she started vomiting on the spot.
Having witnessed countless absurd scenes of people killing each other in the past two months, Lu Haimu did not trust the person in front of him: "What do you want to do, sir?"
Lu Jinzhao jumped down from the stone platform and landed right in front of Lu Haimu, holding the knife to his neck: "I should be the one asking you what you want to do. What do you want to do by following me?"
Since Lu Haimu could become the backbone of this group of people, he must know some martial arts. He raised his weapon and was ready to fight back.
Unfortunately, the enemy was too strong, and he was knocked to the ground before he could even touch the other side. Lu Haimu knew that he was no match for the enemy, so he raised his arms, remembered something, looked up and down at the young man in front of him, and said hesitantly: "You...are you new here?"
Lu Jinzhao's eyebrows jumped: "What do you mean."
A screen appeared in front of Lu Haimu, showing many fancy icons that looked like seals, some colorful and some gray. He explained, "Every time you come out alive from a location, a seal will be activated, and you will not be teleported to the same location again. You must be a newcomer, you don't have a single seal."
The blade sank into the skin of Lu Haimu's neck, and blood oozed out. Lu Jinzhao threatened: "Tell me everything you know."
After spending more than ten minutes, Lu Jinzhao finally got information about this place from Lu Haimu.
They are an expedition team, usually looking for rare treasures on various remote planets. Two months ago, their team was exploring in the jungle of a border planet. When they walked deep into the forest, they accidentally triggered a strange device and were teleported to this unlocatable planet by the vortex. This place is like a joke played by the gods. Every time they arrive at a place, they have to fight with the local people and monsters. Only by killing the opponent and getting the final quota can they leave alive.
There were more than 30 people in the team, but now only these few are left.
Seeing that they were teleported to this desert town, they roughly estimated the number of people, which was just enough for the start of a new round of life and death game. Before they entered the tunnel, the barrier outside had already been closed, which meant that only a few people in the town could walk out alive.
Although it is not known whether this is Earl's work, but at present, compared with the previous model of clearing the population in the northern hemisphere, this place is more like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, and the team that survives to the end wins.
Lu Haimu's interface was more complicated than his, probably because veteran players had unlocked more entries, or because team sharing was more detailed than single-player. He looked through Lu Haimu's taskbar carefully and saw [Sand Sea Frenzy] pinned at the top.
Mission content: Fight with other living creatures in the desert town. In the end, only thirty living creatures can leave.
The word "living creature" is very interesting to interpret. Lu Jinzhao clicked on the details of other tasks that Lu Haimu had completed. Unfortunately, he couldn't know the content of the tasks that had been settled, but he already had a plan in mind.
Seeing that the monster seemed to have finished eating and slowly moved away from here, Lu Jinzhao held Lu Haimu in his hand and took him deeper into the cave.
Someone was dissatisfied: "What do you want to do? You knew there were monsters in here, but you didn't go out, you went in. If you want to die, don't take us with you!"
"Speak louder and attract all the monsters here." Lu Jinzhao rolled his eyes and pointed to the countdown interface for their mission. "Deep in the cave is where the monster cubs are hatched. I guess, if nothing goes wrong, when the countdown ends, they will just be finished hatching and will come out to look for food. What do you think they eat?"
That would be cannibalism. Several people knew the truth and looked at each other, not knowing whether they should believe him or not.
Finally, Lu Haimu made up his mind: "You guys wait here for me, I will go with him. If there is really a hatching ground, I will find a way to destroy it. Monkey, do you still have your explosive star rocks? Give me a few."
The young man named Monkey untied his waist pocket, took out two unremarkable stones and gently placed them in Lu Haimu's palm, "That's all I have, Brother Mu, please use them sparingly."
When this kind of stone is subjected to strong impact or high temperature, it will burn quickly or even explode, releasing a large amount of energy. If there is really a monster hatching ground, this should be able to destroy it. Lu Haimu sighed secretly. If the hatching ground is fake, it should be able to blow up the threatening young man in front of him.
Both the man and the cat knew exactly what he was planning.
Qiansui sat on Lu Jinzhao's shoulder, wagging his tail back and forth: "If we weren't short of supplies now, we wouldn't have used them. You even went back to save their lives. Do you know that the hatching fluid is really smelly..."
"What should we do? You can't ask me to harvest them one by one, right? There are so many densely packed insect eggs, it looks like there are at least 8,000 of them. How long will it take me to cut them one by one?" Lu Jinzhao put away his knife and led the way: "Now we have a permanent solution, and we also got a lot of information. It's worth it."
As the two went deeper, the air was filled with a nauseating smell of decay. They passed through a maze of narrow passages and finally came to a wide natural cave. Thousands of insect eggs were scattered on the ground, of varying sizes, with transparent shells and green hatching fluid inside, showing a strange luster.
As the countdown gets closer, some have even begun to tremble slightly, and the thin egg shells seem like they will be torn apart at any time by the life forms gestating inside.
Once these monsters hatch, not only this area but the entire desert may face disaster.
Lu Haimu took a deep breath. Seeing is believing. He finally believed what the young man said. He placed the torch at the entrance of the cave and gave the other star-blasting rock to Lu Jinchao. They then went their separate ways.
The two carefully scraped some powder from the starburst rock and sprinkled it around the eggs. This powder was extremely fine and oxidized immediately after contact with the air, becoming extremely easy to ignite.
After making sure that the explosion range was large enough to cover the entire cave, the two of them exited the cave. Lü Haimu picked up the torch and carefully touched one of the powders. Sparks leaped and instantly ignited the explosive star rock powder scattered on the ground. The flames spread rapidly in the hatchery like a fuse, and the heat wave hit us.
They threw the remaining half of the explosive star rock into the sea of fire. They didn't have time to admire their masterpiece and turned to run towards the exit. The first sound of a shell breaking came from behind them, followed by a series of cracking sounds and screams of new monsters, but those sounds were soon drowned out by the huge explosion that followed.
Such a big commotion soon attracted the adult monsters. They passed by the people who were infected with the scent of larvae and rushed straight to the hatching place.
