the only savior

Chapter 869 Sewage Treatment Plant No. 39
Dark areas, undercurrent alleys.

Local time: [-]:[-] p.m.

The Rat Exterminator team has successfully arrived at the target area, which is a sewage discharge area known as the undercurrent alley.

"I heard that there is a wastewater treatment plant here, which can directly lead to the science and technology building, and the wastewater in the undercurrent alley is discharged from there."

Under a wall covered with fluorescent graffiti, Morris was analyzing the information he had just inquired about with his teammates.

At their feet was a slender ditch filled with dirty, foul-smelling waste water.

Ditches like this can be seen throughout the Aphotic Zone.

They are connected to the large and small drainage pipes on the upper floor, collecting the sewage from the entire upper city, and eventually all will be purified and reused in the sewage treatment plant below.

The reason why Morris knew this was because before he acted, he exchanged reward points for a special item in the mall called "Tongyan Brand".

It was a small white ball of light, and it only needed to be crushed lightly, so that he could communicate with the natives of this world smoothly.

Of course, the exchange price for any extraordinary item in the bounty mall is very expensive.

For the smooth progress of this mission and for more convenient actions on this planet in the future, Morris gritted his teeth and spent 80 points to redeem it.

It has to be said that the effect of this thing is very good, and now he can easily understand Gu Lingxing's language.

Not only that, but the effect of this communication brand is actually double.

While he understood the ancient language, he also learned the official language of the empire of Odok, which was a surprising surprise.

Therefore, the information that Morris said just now was obtained from the residents of the nearby dark zone.

"Boss, you said this river is so dirty, there shouldn't be any fish in it?"

Kiko, a strong black man, was squatting by the side of the ditch, looking intently at the sewage in front of him.

This guy is a fishing enthusiast, and he likes to go fishing in various waters with a fishing rod when he has no tasks on weekdays.

Whenever they see a little water, they will habitually ask such a question, and everyone has already gotten used to it.

However, he was just asking this casually, but he didn't expect Morris to answer it seriously.

"By the way, I'm about to tell you about this. Just now I heard from the residents here that there are actually fish in the ditch. Not only fish, but sometimes some aquatic mutants appear, you guys In the future, when you have nothing to do, stay far away from these ditches, so as not to be attacked by monsters."

He just wanted to remind a few teammates, but what he didn't expect was that after saying these words, Kiko suddenly regained his energy, staring at the water in front of him with bright eyes.

"What!? There are fish in it? Boss, is this true? You are not lying to me!?"

As soon as Morris saw this situation, he knew that this guy was probably committing an old problem again.

It's just that I have already said my words, and it's useless to change my words now, so I can only nod helplessly.

Seeing this, Kiko looked even more expectant.

"Okay! I didn't expect to come to an alien planet once, and there will be unexpected rewards! When I have a chance, I must catch a rod here! I don't know what this alien fish is like, I can't wait..."

"Hehe, the fish in this kind of ditch dare to eat them, and they will poison you to death sooner or later."

A small man couldn't help but mocked.

"Andrea, if you're jealous of my appetite, just tell me. I'm a man who has taken four bottles of Sun Essence Potion. How can I not be able to eat a little bit of polluted fish?"

"..."

Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Morris hurriedly interrupted them and brought the topic back on track.

"Okay, let's stop for a while. Our target area is ahead. If you have anything to say, let's wait until the mission is over."

After he finished speaking, he walked out first, and the people behind him all returned to seriousness, and quickly followed.

The current location of everyone is about the edge of the mission site, which is close to the territory of the Necro gang.

When you get here, you can clearly feel that there are no other residents nearby.

Everyone who lives here knows that the lunatics sent by the empire are really cannibals, and no one wants to live near them.

"According to intelligence, Necro's guys have already taken the sewage treatment plant in front of them as their own, treating them as gang territory. They should be sleeping soundly at this time, and we can take this opportunity to catch them off guard."

Morris said.

According to the current living habits of the Ancient Lensians, they basically sleep during the day and go out at night.

Even if the shield has blocked the scarlet light now, the habit that has lasted for a year cannot be changed so quickly.

So now this time is the time when they sleep the most soundly in a day.

As for visibility, because it is due to the dark zone, there is actually not much difference between day and night.

Coming to a corner, Morris took out a knife and squatted down. After groping the ground for a while, he carefully scraped off a layer of strange plants from above.

This is a plant that looks like Flammulina velutipes, with a pink surface and faint fluorescence. At first glance, it looks like the kind of good thing that you have to go home to lie down after eating one bite.

"Boss, what are you doing?"

Seeing this, Kiko couldn't help being curious.

Before Morris could explain, Lumen, the man with glasses, spoke first.

"This is the rank bacterium, which only grows in the dark corners of the no-light area. It is a specialty here. The rank wine you drank in the bar just now is made from it."

"This is the raw material for making Ronque!?"

Kiko suddenly looked shocked.

When they came to the dark zone just now, in order to inquire about information, they first went to a nearby bar, where they drank rumk.

The taste of that kind of wine is very unique, which makes people feel addicted to it, which makes Kiko, an old wine bug, very satisfied.

"I didn't expect that kind of fine wine to be brewed from these mushrooms. Boss, what do you want to do with so much collection? You don't plan to brew some yourself after you go back, do you?"

"Shh!"

A ray of light reflected from the glasses man's lens.

I saw him supporting his eyes with his hands, and said in a deep tone:

"Idiot, I told you to listen to the lecture carefully, but if you don't listen, the fungus has a certain toxin before it is made into wine. If its powder penetrates into the retina, it will cause people to have very strong hallucinations. The boss should collect this Get ready to deal with those guys."

As soon as he finished speaking, Morris over there had already crushed the fungus in his hand and poured it into a small glass bottle.

"Hehe, I'm just in case, just in case."

After he finished speaking, he grabbed another pot of soil and gently wiped off the remaining powder of the fungus on his hands. Then he stood up again and led the crowd to move on.

No. 39 sewage treatment plant is the largest treatment plant built in the B city of the passage area, covering an area of ​​about 6 square kilometers, which does not include the area of ​​its reservoir.

Generally speaking, before the catastrophe, it was guarded by the federal guards.

But now it has already been controlled by a group of armed mobs.

According to Morris' investigation, the group of lunatics from the empire named Necro were indeed the same as those in the Star Alliance intelligence, committing all sorts of crimes, even treating their own kind as food.

Therefore, everyone in the rat extermination team decided to directly implement Plan A and use violent means to wipe out these lunatics.

"boom!"

There was a bang, and a weather-beaten gate had done its job, blown apart by a directional grenade.

A blazing flame suddenly burned in the dark alley, lighting up the surroundings.

"There is only one way here, they should be right below, everyone hurry up!"

Morris took the lead and led four teammates into the No. 39 sewage treatment plant.

As soon as Fang entered here, everyone's expressions couldn't help but change.

Just because beside this not-so-spacious passage, dark red blood stains can be seen everywhere, and there are even some mutilated human bones.

"These guys turned this place into this..."

Morris frowned.

It seems that there is really no need to investigate any more this time. These thugs really did a lot of evil.

The main entrance of No. 39 Sewage Treatment Plant is actually inside, which is a large elevator.

However, due to the catastrophe of the doomsday, it has already been abandoned, and what the few people are now going through is the back door here.

The road to the back door is not very big, and there are corpses everywhere, and the more you walk in, the denser it becomes, making it impossible to even find a better foothold.

Turning a corner, everyone's eyes suddenly opened up.

"vomit!"

Andrea couldn't help retching, because he, a gold medal bounty hunter, couldn't have been shocked by the sight in front of him.

In front of him, less than [-] centimeters from the tip of his nose, was a huge burden piled up.

A large number of corpses were randomly piled up in the baggage, and at close range, a stench hit, making people retch.

"This is their food bag..."

After observing for a while, the man with glasses expressed his conclusion solemnly.

Now even the muscular Kiko was a little restless.

"Fack! These damn bastards, I will use my dual blasting machine gun to blast them to pieces later!"

Everyone cautiously walked around the piled up blood bags.

It's just that this is really difficult, because such packages can be seen everywhere here, blocking the road that is not considered spacious.

"Meow, I'm starting to regret taking the mission here now!"

Weiss pushed a blood bag out of the way with his own hands, and then cleared a path for everyone to pass.

"and many more!"

The man with glasses suddenly stopped them softly.

He turned around and rummaged through a blood bag beside him, and took out a gray rectangular object from it not long after.

"Shet!! Lumen, what are you doing! Why are you touching those things!!"

Seeing his movements, Kiko couldn't help but took a few steps back.

Lu Men had a calm look on his face, as if everything here didn't affect his emotions at all.

"Look at this. I remember that during the firearms training, the instructor demonstrated it to us. This is a battery."

"Battery?"

"Yes, this is a standard size B7-type plasma battery, which is plasma ammunition, and can fit most heavy-duty plasma rifle magazines."

What he said made everyone slightly stunned.

"what do you mean……"

Lu Men adjusted his glasses and said:

"These bundles are not just their food bags, but also their storage containers for things like weapons."

"Hiss... don't you want to..."

"That's right, we are now within the range of the shield, and some equipment of the ancient edge star should be usable. So I suggest that we check these bags, collect the materials inside, and it should be helpful to the mission later. to help."

As soon as Lu Men finished speaking, Kiko was the first to wave his hands, shaking his head like a rattle.

"Lu Men, what are you kidding! You asked me to find what's inside!? Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I would never do that! Absolutely not! Just give up on it!"

Several other people also looked at this companion with the eyes of a monster.

After getting along for so long, it was the first time that this guy was so sensible.

But it can't be their fault, after all, the baggage in front of them is really too disgusting.

If any normal person came, he would not be willing to touch it.

"This... Lumen, I think these weapons should be forgotten... We haven't systematically learned how to use them. After all, they are high-tech things. If they are used improperly, they will easily cause unpredictable consequences..."

Morris spoke.

It was not difficult to see from the expression on his face that he was also unwilling to touch the things inside.

"All right……"

Lu Men thought about the captain's words very seriously, and finally felt that there was some truth, so he nodded and agreed.

"But these grenades are still usable. We used to throw them in the Covenant, didn't we?"

As he spoke, he dug out a few grenades from a bag beside him.

Inside are the well-known plasma magnetic storm grenade, and the flat-looking concussion grenade.

"Okay, okay...how about these things, Lumen, you can take care of them first, and we will ask you for them later when we need them..."

Morris twitched his lips.

As the captain, he was embarrassed to admit that he was disgusted and was unwilling to use it, so he could only let the other party take it first.

In this way, Lu Men spent 5 minutes searching all the bags nearby, and found eight small grenades in total.

"Keep moving, everyone, be careful where you step. Since these guys know how to use weapons, there may be landmines underground. Don't be careless."

Morris gave the order to proceed.
