The Scavengers

Chapter 54 Collecting Gold Bugs 6 Completing the Mission and Upgrading

Xiao Mo turned his back to hide the smile on the corner of his mouth, this kind of military N generation is really not annoying.

"You can predict the weather? Then did you predict the earthquake?" Xue Lihong finally spoke to Qiu Xin.

Qiu Xin hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Xue Lihong's dead-like eyes, he was frightened and immediately shouted: "Yes, I knew half an hour in advance."

"Only half an hour?" Xue Lihong didn't seem to doubt that Qiu Xin said that he could predict the weather, he seemed even more puzzled why Qiu Xin's level was so low.

"This earthquake is quite strange. Generally, earthquakes are caused by changes in the earth's crust. The surrounding area is affected and slowly spread. Because this kind of process is extended, the general earthquake prediction can be predicted in advance. I once went to the mountains to play. It was predicted that there would be an earthquake near there two days in advance, but this time...not only is the epicenter closer, but there seems to be no unexpected event brewing. This is really strange!"

Qiu Xin said dejectedly: "I also called my old man, but the time was too short, even if the old man wanted to make some preparations, it was too late."

Xue Lihong was deep in thought, but she didn't know what she was thinking.

Qiu Xin sighed secretly, surprised that the two of them didn't ask him why he could predict the weather, and they were not surprised at all by his special skill.

Xiao Mo was actually curious about how Qiu Xin could predict the weather and natural disasters, and even more curious that he seemed to have this skill before, but he has seen too many abnormal humans in the past two days, and he has no interest in knowing the reason.

"Why didn't you go to your father's place before the earthquake?" Xiao Mo grasped the doubt.

"My home is safer. That community was built by engineers. Didn't you expect it? All the buildings are no more than four stories high, and the building materials are the most practical. Through reasonable planning and design, a lot of high-tech is also mixed in. , looks inconspicuous on the outside, but it is not only comfortable to live in, but also much safer than ordinary real estate.”

"...Is that real estate for sale?"

"Of course not, the interior has already been divided."

"No wonder you live there, your father is so relieved." Xiao Mo was a little envious and jealous.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Qiu Xin immediately said with a shy face: "Brother Xiao, speaking of it, we don't have much animosity. I think this matter was a big misunderstanding from the beginning to the end. I don't think you should tie me up or knock me out. Put me in the carriage, I am willing to help you negotiate with my old man and let him send your family back."

"Oh?"

"Really! I swear!"

"Tell me your father's satellite phone number." Xue Lihong said.

"Oh." Seeing Xue Lihong speak, Qiu Xin immediately reported a series of numbers obediently.

Xue Lihong didn't connect to Qiu Feng immediately, but only said to Xiao Mo: "Take him in together."

Xiao Mo looked at Qiu Xin.

Qiu Xin raised his hand and swore that he would follow them obediently and never run away.

"You can escape. Didn't you say that you escaped from the kidnapper twice before? Then you can try to escape from me for the third time."

Qiu Xin's legs were weak, and he grabbed Xiao Mo's arm and cried: "Woo! Heroes are so scary! I lied to you, I have never been kidnapped before. Woo, I won't run away, I swear I will never run away!" will run away!"

With no guards and no threats from surveillance cameras, Xiao Mo climbed onto the roof of the car, stepped on the car and climbed over the wall into the school.

Qiu Xin was the second to flip in.

As for Xuelihong... she just jumped in from where she stood!

The campus is huge, but with Xiao Mo, the human navigator, they quickly found the experimental building where the helicopter was inserted.

Qiu Xin didn't know what the two of them were doing here, but he didn't dare to ask, so he followed them honestly.

"They're... downstairs?" Xiao Mo asked in surprise when he heard the system prompt and looked at the [-]D map in his mind.

"basement?"

"No, it seems to be a deeper place. Strange..." Xiao Mo stepped forward.

Xue Lihong looked around and followed the two people in front.

"Brother Xiao, there was a shootout here! There's still a lot of blood!"

Even if Qiu Xin didn't say anything, Xiao Mo had already seen it.

Things look worse inside the building than outside.

Xue Lihong took out a pistol, opened the safety catch and handed it to Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo took it silently, he didn't dare to put his finger on the trigger for fear of hitting it by mistake.

Qiu Xin didn't find it surprising that they had guns. As for mercenaries, let alone guns, it was not surprising that they had missiles.

"What is that? A corpse?!" Qiu Xin suddenly jumped up in fright.He is a civilized man who rejects all violence!And he has never seen a real corpse since he grew up!

"Shut up!" Xue Lihong patted Xiao Mo's shoulder, and gestured lightly to him.

Xiao Mo actually understood it, and immediately slowed down his steps, and his feet were very light.

Qiu Xin even started to walk carefully.

On the stairway leading to the basement, they saw more than one corpse.

And most of these corpses look like dehydrated human beings.

The dead bodies included school staff, students, and soldiers.

"What happened here?" Qiu Xin asked in a low voice, trembling.

Xiao Mo turned his head and put his finger on his lips.

Qiu Xin quickly shut up.

Because of poor vision, Xiao Mo took out a miner's lamp from his backpack. He originally wanted to give Xue Lihong one, but Xue Lihong shook his hand, indicating that he didn't need it.

Xiao Mo then distributed the extra head-mounted miner's lamp to Qiu Xin.

Qiu Xin put on the miner's lamp, and looked at Xue Lihong with admiration and fear. In such a dark place, he didn't need a lamp?

Xue Lihong turned her head and glanced at him.

Qiu Xin was so frightened that he almost cried out, Xue Lihong's eyes shone green like a beast!

No, that is an illusion, it must be an illusion!

Qiu Xin followed Xiao Mo closely, not daring to miss a step.

Most of the underground floors of the laboratory building are mechanical and electrical rooms and warehouses, and there is only one floor.

But looking at the map in Xiao Mo's mind, Xiao Mo showed that the gold-eating mother insect was obviously in a lower place.

"How many meters is the vertical distance from the target?" Xiao Mo asked the system in his mind.

"The vertical distance is 30 meters."

That's already deep!This figure is almost equivalent to the height of a ten-story building.

Xiao Mo turned his head to look at Xue Lihong, and reported the data to him in a low voice.

When Xiao Mo looked over, the young man's eyes didn't change in any way, only there seemed to be some reflections, Xiao Mo didn't pay much attention.

Xue Lihong held him back and changed to walking in front by herself, letting Xiao Mo and Qiu Xin walk behind him side by side.

Xiao Mo took the initiative to watch out for their backs.

Both of them knew that it was impossible for this kind of school building to have such a deep underground building, so the gold-eating insects would be in such a deep place, and they saw so many corpses, gun battles and traces of fire along the way, all of which foreshadowed I'm afraid they won't encounter much pleasing stuff if they go down below.

When they walked to the middle, the three found a rather large warehouse and a big hole in the warehouse that looked extremely deep.

"Do you want to go down? I feel hairy all over, and I feel very wrong." Xiao Mo whispered in Xue Lihong's ear.

"There are people below." Xue Lihong replied.

"You mean to say that Qian and Wang are already below?"

"There are more than two people." Xue Lihong walked to the edge of the cave, as if planning to just jump down.

The gold-eating female beetle is moving, and it is moving fast!

Xiao Mo was taken aback, and immediately called Xue Lihong softly, "Qian Wang and the two may have brought their target up."

Xue Lihong immediately turned around and pulled Xiao Mo to the side, and kicked Qiu Xin to the opposite corner by the way.

Qiu Xin didn't even dare to cry out for pain, and shrank in a corner, not daring to move.

Xiao Mo turned off the miner's lamp in time, but Qiu Xin did not.

Xiao Mo was about to remind Qiu Xin to turn off the miner's lamp when a figure quickly climbed up from the cave.

The man had a flashlight in his mouth, and when he came up and saw a light next to him, his first reaction was to hold the gun and aim it.

"Wang Cheng!" Xiao Mo recognized the person coming.

Wang Cheng turned his head, and the light of the flashlight illuminated the two people in the dark corner.

"Xiao Mo?" Wang Cheng was pleasantly surprised, "It's great that you can come here at this time! I'm planning to come up and ask for help!"

Xiao Mo turned on the miner's lamp and walked to Wang Cheng's side, "What's going on? Did something happen to Dr. Qian?"

"No, it's not Yunkai, it's three soldiers. Wait a minute, I have to find a rope. All three soldiers are injured, two of them are still seriously injured. The hole is too steep, and there is also a sneak attack by the blood mosquito beast. We didn't There is a way to bring people up."

"Is this the blood mosquito beast's lair?" Xue Lihong also walked out of the darkness.

"It's very possible. But we blew up the main cave below, and their army can't come out for a while. At present, there are only a few fragments cruising around and attacking us."

"I just saw a fire hose belt nearby, maybe it can be used instead of the rope?" Xiao Mo reminded.

"Great!" Wang Cheng immediately followed Xiao Mo's direction and ran to find the fire hose, but before lifting his feet, he took out the glass bottle from his backpack and handed it to Cheng Zhou, "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life!"

Xiao Mo solemnly said: "Thank you!"

"You go outside and notify the employer to pick up the goods, I'll go down and have a look." Xue Lihong seemed very interested in the following.

Xiao Mo nodded, glanced at Qiu Xin, and walked out holding the glass bottle.

Qiu Xin wanted to keep up with Xiao Mo, but Xue Lihong jumped down the deep hole with him by the collar.

"Ahhh!" Qiu Xin yelled in fright.

Seeing Xiao Mo walking upstairs with the glass bottle in his arms, although Wang Cheng was surprised, he didn't ask anything.

Xiao Mo told Wang Cheng that Xue Lihong had already jumped down the deep hole to help, Wang Cheng was grateful, with Xue Lihong around, at least the injured people below would be safer, naturally Qian Yunkai didn't have to work so hard.

Worried about Qian Yunkai and the people below, Wang Cheng fixed the fire hose to death. After testing the firmness, he grabbed the fire hose and jumped off.

Seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Mo immediately took back the last five gold-eating females.

"Ding, the objective of mission No. 03 was recovered successfully. Scavengers Xiao Mo will be rewarded. There are three options for the reward content, and you can choose one of them. Option [-], the method of using the first-level ability and training method; Option [-], the development of spiritual space [-] Cubic meters; option three, ten first-level standard energy crystals."

Xiao Mo chose the first reward option without hesitation.

"Please note that the use method and exercise method of the first-level ability can be combined with the training schedule provided by this system before. The two complement each other, and learning together will be more effective."

Xiao Mo expressed his understanding.

Immediately, a large amount of knowledge was forcibly poured into his brain.

Xiao Mo supported the wall next to him, and subconsciously pressed his hand between his eyebrows.

He was dizzy and he didn't know how long it had passed. Just when he felt better, he heard the system notification sound again.

"Ding, Scavengers Xiao Mo has completed the two tasks of the first level, the system has met the upgrade requirements, and will enter the upgrade within the next 10 minutes."

Xiao Mo suddenly felt an unbearable severe pain coming from the depths of his brain, and immediately screamed, clutched his head and passed out.
