The battle came to an end, but Shen Cong did not relax his vigilance at all, not only because there were still four insect warriors that had not been found, but also because he needed to guard against the betrayal of the insect killing team and the five sisters.
Just because of temporary cooperation, one cannot assume that the other party will not carry out conspiracy.
The eyes of the sky were opened, and the place where the insect warriors were hiding was searched everywhere. At this moment, the enslaved ordinary people came out of their respective residences, or stopped what they were doing, with dull faces showing no signs of excitement or numbness.
She just looked at Shen Cong, who was 2.23 meters tall and wearing ferocious battle armor. He was holding a knife in both hands. There was still blood on the knife that was still wet, dripping on the ground.
Around Atai's house, corpses were still strewn everywhere.
Shen Cong's eyes suddenly changed. He discovered that there were traces of movement on the ruins of the house. Although these traces had been covered up, due to Shen Cong's subtle observation ability, even a little covering could not really cover them up.
"Who has moved? There is no one around here, and why are they moving in the ruins?" After thinking for a while, Shen Cong already had a plan, "Maybe, this is what those four insect warriors did, although I don't know why they came back. , but if you find them, just kill them."
Immediately, Shen Cong moved the ruins away, revealing an underground entrance.
This is the basement of Atai's house.
A wooden door.
The wooden door was locked, and Shen Cong pulled out the Xu Crab sword. With a strong force, the door was opened. Then the active wave of the Sky Eye penetrated into the basement, and everything became clear to him.
There is a quite large cabin underneath.
A large area was supported by pillars, and beds were placed one after another. On the beds, there were countless humans infected with the insect core.
This is the breeding ground for insect cores in the Republic of Twin Cities.
At this time, there were four insect warriors who were planting insect cores into themselves. When they heard the basement door being opened, they quickly hid in a corner. There was a secret door in the corner where they could hide.
There were so many scabies mites and parasites underground that Shen Cong was too lazy to go down. He used his clairvoyance to measure the depth of the corner where the insect warriors were hiding from the ground.
The conclusion reached is one meter.
One meter of soil layer.
So I walked to the ground above the corner, used a sword to penetrate eighty centimeters into the soil, and cut out a circle. Then I put on two short knives and stood on the circle.
Stomping your feet fiercely.
Boom!
The entire circular ground sank, and the four insect warriors were stunned, hitting their heads. The space was already small, and no one expected that Shen Cong would enter in this way, and no one reacted. Shen Cong Without giving them time to react, they immediately cut with two swords and killed all four insect warriors.
They are all nuke warriors, killing them effortlessly.
After confirming that the last four insect warriors were dead, Shen Cong jumped up and happened to see Chen Xiuni rushing over with a few people. People from the insect killing team and the Five Sisters came to take in the ordinary people.
"Boss Huang, all the bug warriors who escaped from the perimeter have been counted. The last four bug warriors did not escape the settlement." Chen Xiuni said from a distance.
Shen Cong dragged out the corpses of Artest and Master from the ruins, simply tied their necks with ropes, and responded: "Let your people go to the basement to bring up one of the ordinary people infected with the bug core to me. In addition, this settlement I can trade it to you, if you can pay the starting price."
Chen Xiuni was a little embarrassed: "Our pest control team, apart from the information you want, doesn't have much valuable things to trade. Compared with the information you mentioned, our information is probably useless to you."
The insecticide team is responsible for fighting insect warriors. It does not have its own settlement and does not have many resources.
At this time, Miao Huafeng, who came from the other side, walked up to Chen Xiuni and said directly: "We accept the deal. The conditions of the Xihai Park settlement are very good and can accommodate more survivors. We, the five Mengyin sisters, have some Boss Huang may need something to plant."
"What?" Shen Cong actually didn't think that the other party had anything that he needed.
But if you just throw the settlement to the other party, you always feel that you are losing money.
It does not comply with its own principles of fair dealing.
He won't work for others for free. He can get a little resource in exchange for it. No matter how small a mosquito's legs are, they are still meat.
Miao Huafeng said with confidence: "Boss Huang, that kind of thing is definitely useful for Iron Man. Xiuni and I both feel that we need it, but we have no idea how to use it. You are a very powerful Iron Man. Maybe you can unlock the secret and use it."
"what exactly is it?"
"Mercury Lake in the Ore Pit."
"Mercury Lake?"
"Yes, a very special kind of mercury, like..." Miao Huafeng couldn't find a suitable adjective for a while.
Chen Xiuni said: "There is living mercury, there are living lakes."
Miao Huafeng responded: "Yes, that's the feeling."
"Living mercury? Lake?" Shen Cong raised his eyebrows, and his interest suddenly rose. The three words "living" picked out his point of interest, "Okay, if it is really useful, Xihai Park will trade it for you. "
…
Two corpses and a half-dead insect core petri dish were taken away by Shen Cong.
We agreed to go to Mengyin County in the afternoon to inspect Mercury Lake.
He sealed the body for the time being and kept it until later to slowly study the insect core. It can turn ordinary people into powerful insect warriors without using metal gradients. The secret of the insect core is also a form that Shen Cong is very interested in.
Eat and rest.
After replenishing their energy, they set out for Mengyin County in the afternoon. At three o'clock, they arrived at the Diamond National Mine Park settlement. Miao Huafeng and Chen Xiuni had left most of their team members to tidy up the Xihai Park settlement, and they returned here first. , in order to make a deal with Shen Cong.
This time he needed to enter the settlement, so Shen Cong chose to expose the four-legged dragon and rode over there.
Although the majestic four-legged dragon is not as tall as the snail traveler, its streamlined shape that favors fighting is another heart-stopping impact.
"What a huge mutant monster."
"Is this person the boss they call Boss Huang?"
"Does this monster eat people?"
"I heard that Boss Huang killed hundreds of insect warriors by himself. Artest and Master also killed them."
"That's okay, I'm afraid he's even more powerful than the old mayor."
"Even the old mayor can't lift such a big snake, and he also has bigger snails, which is really impressive."
Countless whispers circulated in the settlement.
A super golden beast that can be ridden, this is a subversive perception.
It was already announced that ordinary people in the settlement did not approach, but just watched from a distance. Only Chen Xiuni and Miao Huafeng led the way. Neither of them had ever subdued a war pet, so they could only walk, but the walking speed was not slow. After a while. Soon, he led Shen Cong to the Mercury Lake.
The terrain here is hilly and the vegetation is quite lush.
Many places have been opened up as iron tree orchards.
Mercury Lake is a huge artificially dug hole. Miao Huafeng is a native of Mengyin County and is very familiar with the diamond park: "Our place was originally a diamond science base, with a diamond museum and a large number of mining sites. It was the earliest in China. Diamond mining is here, and it is also the largest open-pit diamond mining pit in China and even Asia."
After the end, a large amount of mercury-like liquid suddenly gushes out of one of these large pits, which is toxic.
Ordinary people cannot touch it, otherwise they will be poisoned.
Of course, it is difficult to judge whether it is mercury, but it looks very much like mercury, but it is more viscous than mercury. Water cannot be diluted. In fact, precipitation is all on the surface of the lake, and then evaporates. The big pits here are all dry. , only this mouth contains mercury, so it is called Mercury Lake.
"Have you felt it, Boss Huang? The smell of Mercury Lake is very strange, right?" Chen Xiuni asked.
Shen Cong stood on the bank of Dakeng, looking at the steps one by one, carefully feeling the activity emitted by the mercury lake. His face was calm under the mask, but there was a huge wave in his heart: "I actually feel like I want to devour him." , what exactly is this mercury, and why does it make me feel like this?”
Only iron cores and natural vehicles will make him want to devour them. (To be continued.)
