Eight hundred and ninetieth chapters native gnawing
After patting the ice at the entrance of the cave again to strengthen it, Lin Cheng clapped his hands and stood up. He took one last look at the dark room, and then snapped his fingers to remove the ice blocking the door.
Lost.
"Brother Lin?! Are you okay?!"
The moment the ice dissipated, Lin Cheng heard Fang Jun's anxious voice coming from outside. Worried that this guy would attract something by shouting, Lin Cheng quickly walked out of the room and waved to him.
: "I'm fine, the matter has been settled, let's go up quickly!"
Having said that, regardless of Fang Jun's confused look, he raised his feet and walked quickly towards the elevator entrance.
After taking the elevator back to the ground headquarters, Lin Cheng glanced at the busy staff in the hall, his eyes flickered a few times, and then he quickly walked towards Fang Hong's office with Fang Jun.
"Squeak..."
When he walked to the door of the Commander-in-Chief's office, Lin Cheng didn't even knock on the door. He turned the doorknob and walked in. Fang Jun behind him was stared at for a moment. He didn't know what the always calm Brother Lin had discovered.
What happened? It became so urgent.
"You're back? Did you get your things?"
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Fang Hong, who was crouching in front of the office writing furiously, was about to curse. When he looked up, he saw that it was Lin Cheng who came in. He had to swallow the curse words in his stomach, stood up with a smile and walked around from behind the desk.
Come out and ask him.
"got it."
Nodding, Lin Cheng went straight to the coffee table, helped himself to a large glass of cold water and took a deep sip, then said solemnly: "But compared to these, I just discovered a more serious situation down there!"
"Oh? Say it!"
Seeing Lin Cheng's unusually serious expression, Fang Hong's heart sank and he couldn't care less about being polite and quickly motioned for him to continue.
But Lin Cheng did not speak immediately, but glanced at Fang Jun beside him. Seeing Lin Cheng's eyes, Fang Hong's heart sank again, and he quickly waved to Fang Jun, "You go out first, Xiaojun."
, it has nothing to do with you here!”
"Ah? Oh..."
Fang Jun originally thought that he would know what Lin Cheng had just encountered down there when he got here, but he didn't expect that he didn't want to let him know at all. He couldn't help but feel very disappointed. But after all, he is completely different now.
Knowing that Lin Cheng had a reason not to tell him, he was just stunned for a moment, then nodded directly and left Fang Hong's office honestly.
After Fang Jun left and closed the door tightly, Fang Hong hurriedly asked: "Okay, can we talk now? What on earth did you find just now?!"
"Gurgling..."
After drinking another mouthful of boiled water, Lin Cheng said softly: "I was attacked just now, and the one who attacked me... was a three-headed gnawer!"
"Gnawers?! You mean, you were attacked by three gnawers down there just now?! But... how is this possible?!"
Hearing Lin Cheng's words, Fang Hong was stunned and asked him with disbelief.
"Here——"
Seeing that Fang Hong didn't believe it, Lin Cheng was not in a hurry. He directly pointed at the clothes on his chest that had been scratched by the red man and said to him: "Did you see it? Do you think someone in your headquarters can touch my clothes?"
A person with horned abilities?"
"this……"
Looking at the two clothes on Lin Cheng's chest that were obviously torn by sharp objects, Fang Hong finally believed what he said and couldn't help but ask: "Then since you found a gnawer down there, why didn't you follow him?
What do the two guards below say? At least let them have some precautions, right?"
"What do you think?"
Hearing this, Lin Cheng couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Are you sure you can just talk about this kind of thing to others? Your boss is also the commander-in-chief. Don't you know what will happen if this kind of thing spreads?
What kind of impact does it have?"
"...It is indeed my fault!"
After being complained about by Lin Cheng, Fang Hong finally realized what was going on. He touched his head with some embarrassment and then realized the focus of the discussion between the two, "So...how are those nibblers doing now? Are you there?"
Where did you find them?"
Lying down on the sofa, Lin Cheng twisted his neck and replied: "All the nibblers have been killed. I found them in a secret room behind the research room, but I have dug them out with ice for the time being.
The exit from the hole has been sealed. I am telling you this just to let you understand that these monsters are much smarter than you think. Although the offensive on the ground has been resolved by us, they will never give up easily and will definitely take advantage of it.
Infiltrate into the city in other ways!"
"I see……"
At this time, Fang Hong had completely believed what Lin Cheng said. The underground headquarters had begun to be infiltrated by predators, and he couldn't help but feel anxious. He had been on the front line of resisting monsters, knowing full well that once these terrible guys came from
Rushing underground into the city will cause great harm to the survivors in the city!
Seeing Fang Hong's worried look, Lin Cheng knew that the old man's habit of worrying was back again, so he suggested to him: "Although I haven't searched carefully, I guess these nibblers won't be able to do it for a while."
If they reach too large a scale, as long as all the gaps in the underground headquarters are sealed and filled before they reach a large scale, the immediate crisis should be temporarily resolved."
"I see."
After hearing Lin Cheng's suggestion, Fang Hong just nodded slightly to express that he understood, because he knew very well that although Lin Cheng's method could temporarily solve the current crisis, he and the survivors of Pingcheng would have to fight again.
For those who live here for a long time, always being passively defensive is not an effective solution.
"Oh, right--"
At this time, Lin Cheng had no intention of taking care of Fang Hong's mood, and continued to say to him: "I forgot to tell you, the three gnawers I just encountered are different from the ones outside the city. They burrowed out of the ground.
The ones that came out are the most primitive 'original gnawers', and their strength and scheming are not comparable to those of the 'inferior products' outside the city. If you are going to seal the hole, you'd better send some strong guys down.
The hole in the province was not blocked, but a lot of people died..."
"'Native Gnawer'? What is this?"
After hearing Lin Cheng's reminder, Fang Hong frowned and asked him with a puzzled look on his face.
Seeing Fang Hong's confusion, Lin Cheng shrugged and explained to him casually: "It's very simple. Those gnawers outside are actually the second or third generation. Although there are many, their average
Their strength is not that great. But these 'native eaters' are different. They belong to the first generation of eaters that appeared in the underground world. Their strength has been rapidly improved in the past six months. In addition,
The harsh underground living environment makes them extremely cruel and bloodthirsty. Once they encounter one, it will be an endless fight to the death!" (To be continued)
