I, the evil god, the cooking king
Chapter 152 - The Advance Team - 4
In the dark cave, fragments of mud, stone and rubble are scattered everywhere.
"Ahem..." The leader Ruskin coughed violently, coughing up a mouthful of blood, "You guys, don't stay here...I can't last long, don't let me drag you down..."
Because of the sudden earthquake, the team was forced to disperse.
Now, Lu Huailian is missing, his life and death are unknown, Charlie is crushed to death by a collapsing boulder, Samuel falls into a bottomless crack in the ground, Krolov leads the rats away to save Kavaqi, and finally blew himself up to death.
At this time, only Ruskin, who was seriously injured, and Kavaqi, Dalton, and Ruan Cheng, who were not seriously injured, were still alive.
Due to the earthquake, they lost the way to communicate with the outside world, as well as a large amount of living supplies. Fortunately, Dalton still stored some food in his personal space. Otherwise, they would have starved to death. After the collapse, there will be dead ends everywhere. In the dark cave.
Ruskin said eagerly: "This mission... definitely failed, but at least you have to go back alive... with the news. Don't give up hope, go up, I believe that the two people on the ground The team...will definitely be able to find you."
"Captain..." Kavacs held Ruskin's arm tightly, with sad eyes.
Ruskin sighed: "Let's all go...don't waste your time here...there's not much food left."
Dalton hesitated for a moment, took out a day's worth of food and water from the space, and said, "Captain, take it."
Ruskin refused the food, and said with a hard smile: "I'm about to die... don't waste it on me. If you have a chance to get out alive... remember to come back and take my body, I... ...don't want to die with these rats..."
"cough cough..."
The three of them hesitated for a long time, and finally, under Ruskin's repeated urging, they started to look for a way out in the cave again with the only remaining luggage on their backs.
Ruskin, who was lying on the ground in this narrow corridor, had difficulty breathing. He looked at the boundless darkness and silently closed his eyes.
"Hee hee soso..." came the sound of the mice cleaning their burrows.
Ruskin opened his eyes suddenly, and he subconsciously clenched the dagger in his hand.
He no longer had ammunition and weapons on him. In order to allow Dalton and the three of them to go further, he gave them all the guns and ammunition on his body, leaving only a dagger on his body.
He slowed down his breathing and quietly waited for the mouse to arrive, but suddenly he heard a human voice.
The voice was very strange, and it was not in English, but he could understand what the other party was saying strangely.
"Is that... like a human?"
"Squeak!"
"No! I refuse! I want to take this person away, you can't treat him as food."
"Squeak..."
"I assure you."
"Squeak!" The man seemed to be able to communicate with mice.
Hearing the approaching footsteps of the man, Ruskin's heart gradually lifted.
"Are you ok?"
Then with the faint light of fluorescent moss plants, he could vaguely see that standing not far away was a person from Xia Kingdom, without any trace of mutation on his body.
Ruskin knew that if he could communicate with mice, there must be something wrong.Therefore, he secretly grasped the dagger and asked vigilantly, "Who are you?"
Xia Guoren explained: "My name is Li Xingnan, and I am a doctor. You seem to be seriously injured, do you need my help?"
Ruskin covered his chest, and pretended to say: "Ahem...Thank you...I was hit by an earthquake and fell here by mistake. I thought I was going to die this time..."
Although Li Xingnan claimed to be a doctor and seemed to want to help him with good intentions, Ruskin did not relax his guard at all, but was prepared to take the opportunity to hold him hostage and ask him about the situation when he approached.
Seeing Li Xingnan approaching slowly, he gathered all his strength, drew out the dagger hidden behind his back, and suddenly exploded.
Unexpectedly, Li Xingnan also came prepared, holding an engineering shovel in his hand, and happened to stop Ruskin's attack with a jingle.
A scarlet lightning flashed in Ruskin's eyes, and the surrounding situation was instantly reflected in his mind in a 360° panorama, and time slowed down before his eyes...
At this moment, he is like a plug-in with a full-court perspective and deceleration.
I saw his figure flashing rapidly, and in an instant, he bullied himself and subdued Li Xingnan with the dagger in his hand.
But Li Xingnan only felt that this person's speed was unbelievably fast. Although he was covered in blood and was seriously injured, he could burst out with such terrifying speed and strength in an instant that he had no time to react and was held hostage.
"Squeak!!!!"
The mice immediately discovered that Li Xingnan had been caught. They neighed loudly, calling for countless others of the same kind to gather here continuously.
Perhaps it was because Ruskin held Li Xingnan hostage, so the mice just chirped in a commotion, but they couldn't get around.
Ruskin noticed this situation keenly, and said hoarsely: "You let...they move away."
With a cold dagger in Li Xingnan's throat, he said hastily, "I have no ill intentions towards you. They are just a group of poor survivors. They will not hurt you."
Ruskin sneered twice: "It seems...you may have stayed underground for so long that you can't even tell the difference between a human and a mouse."
"Anan, don't trust him, he is a despicable enemy!"
"Yes, we are the same kind!"
Seeing the vivid faces of the survivors, Li Xingnan retorted: "They are not mice... I think you are the one who has been in the ground for a long time, and your mind is confused!"
As a result of forcibly activating the ability, Ruskin's injuries expanded again, and his hand holding the dagger trembled.
"Dingling..." The dagger fell to the ground.
"Cough, cough, cough..." He suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes darkened, and he couldn't hold on anymore, so he fell to his knees.
"Squeak!" Seeing the fallen Ruskin, the mice rushed over like a spring.
Ruskin gave a wry smile, and then passed out completely.
............................
Unlike Ruskin's situation, the three of Dalton were quite lucky. They didn't encounter a large number of rats on the way to explore the road, but the road became narrower and narrower, and there was almost no way to go in the end.
Kavaqi panted heavily, and said with an ugly face: "I'm afraid the scope of this earthquake is very wide, blocking a lot of roads leading to the outside. The rats must first clean up their own territory, so the further they go in, the more roads will be. Broad, the further you go, the narrower the road."
The narrow passage made the oxygen thin, and all three of them felt a little difficult to breathe.
Dalton asked: "Then... how do we go now?"
Ruan Cheng squatted on the ground and said, "It would be great if there were communication equipment now... At least we can contact the higher authorities for rescue."
Kavaqi turned his head and said, "Dalton, how many days do you have enough food in your space?"
Dalton wiped off the sweat from his head, closed his eyes and sensed the food in the portable space, and replied: "If the three of us are full, we can still eat for three days. If survival is the goal, we should You can still eat for seven days."
Kavach was silent for a moment before saying, "I don't think I'll be able to wait for rescue, so...I have a proposal."
Ruan Cheng was stunned for a moment before asking: "Do you want to... go back and continue the mission?"
Kavaqi smiled with difficulty: "You Xia people are very smart... With our current situation, we must not be able to dig out by ourselves. As for waiting for rescue...the underground is so big, they don't know how to dig it out. Knowing our location, it is impossible to find us. Why not take a gamble... If it succeeds, at least... we will die with honor. And according to my induction, the mouse brain is not very far from our location, at most We'll be able to get there in half a day's journey."
After he finished his proposal, Ruan Cheng and Dalton hesitated for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
After all, the current situation can't be worse, anyway, they have reached a dead end, so it's better to take a gamble.
After the three made up their minds, they rested in place for two hours, and then went deeper underground according to Kavaqi's induction.
The further you go down, the wider the road, and the more mice you meet...
But relying on Dalton's portable space, they evaded the patrolling rat team many times, and were lucky enough to find a warehouse where human belongings were piled up.
Dalton said excitedly: "Look, here is our backpack!"
Ruan Cheng was also refreshed: "There is no way out, there is no way out, and there is another village! I hope these mice have not missed our satellite phone!"
The rats just hoarded things in the warehouse without sending rats to guard them, so they easily hid in the warehouse and rummaged through useful items.
Dalton said in surprise: "There is a lot to eat, it seems that we can last for a while!"
"Yes, yes! I found it!" Ruan Cheng excitedly picked up the satellite phone and tried to turn it on.
This satellite phone contains Bluestar's top military technology, has a very strong signal, a 5000 mAh battery, and a long standby time. It can not only make satellite calls, but also remote video, even at a depth of [-] meters underground , can also receive messages from the ground...
"Still charged... great, great... 15 percent."
Ruan Cheng held the satellite phone tightly, trying to dial the encrypted communication number.
"Beep...beep..."
Hearing the sound, Dalton and Kavaqi stared at the satellite phone intently, held their breath, and kept saying in their hearts, "Hurry up, connect it!"
After about three rings, the phone was quickly picked up.
"Are you members of the advance team?!"
"Great..." The three couldn't help cheering a little when they saw the connected call.
Ruan Cheng immediately explained to the other end of the phone: "Yes, we are... we are unable to return to the ground because of the earthquake. At present, our team is only left, I, Ruan Cheng, and Dalton Kavaqi. Please Quickly locate based on satellite phone."
The voice of the operator was also very excited: "Got it, we will carry out excavation and rescue as soon as possible according to your location, please try to keep in touch with us."
Ruan Cheng asked: "Understood! How is the situation on the ground now?"
Hearing his question, the operator was silent for a while, as if discussing something with other people around...
After a while, they answered their questions: "Because of the major earthquake, the rat plagues that emerged in various regions of Africa have eased. It may be that the earthquake has also affected them. So far, the situation on the ground is still within the controllable range. Inside."
"The United Nations Council has taken advantage of this time to send a large number of troops to Africa to clean up the rat plague and rescue the frontline. Now the disaster situation has improved, so please hold on!"
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that the situation had improved.
After hanging up the phone, the three of them discussed for a while, and decided to give up the mission temporarily. After all, if they can live, who doesn't want to continue to live?
The author has something to say: the plot is almost brewing, and tomorrow all parties will gather for the main course.
"Ahem..." The leader Ruskin coughed violently, coughing up a mouthful of blood, "You guys, don't stay here...I can't last long, don't let me drag you down..."
