Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 36 The monster in the tube building

"Hehe, twenty people? It's only a little tricky for Kayi, the other newcomers, don't be afraid."

"However, that kid who walked very close to the "Four-armed Rakshasa" Qianjo should pay more attention, and kill him first if he has a chance, so as to avoid any accidents. "

"Yes, Captain Kuntu."

"."

As soon as Kai called the gang to prepare to deal with the distortion incident, the members of the "Steam Brotherhood" got the news and quietly ambushed near the Tongzilou.

The despicable escape from the Elephant Tavern last time has become the subject of "red-haired" Kuntu being ridiculed in the gang circle, which made him ashamed to show his face in front of his colleagues recently.

Now that Qianjo is not on Green Street, they are ready to do it again.

Although the city is much safer than outside the city, there will always be distortions.

Old Lingdun City was originally an ancient relic. Even after so many years of cleaning and excavation, some "cursed objects" with curse characteristics that have not completely dissipated will be found underground from time to time. These things are good things for professionals, but for ordinary people, they are nightmares like radiation sources, which can easily induce distortion.

There is also the air in the city, although the content of dark spiritual power is thinner than that outside the city, it is enough to induce distortion with a small probability;

The wild hunters who have eaten contaminated food and drinking water and returned from hunting in high-distortion environments, for various reasons, there will be several distortion incidents almost every month in major neighborhoods.

And the frequency seems to be quietly increasing in recent months.

Of course, the most troublesome thing is the out-of-control professionals.

The essence of "distortion" is that the dark spiritual power in the body is out of control, destroying the will of the person, and then turning the body into a monster with a giant view, or other special forms.

After the distortion, the dark spiritual power in the human body will no longer be limited, and it will increase rapidly. Therefore, professionals who become monsters will be several times stronger than they were in life, which is very difficult.

In the outer city, there is no city guard and security department, and the aberrant incidents in the jurisdiction are handled by gangsters.

So, this is also the daily work of the Green Street Cross helpers.

Not long after the assembly order was issued, Su Lun arrived at the broken building.

Recently, more than a dozen newcomers have joined, making up for the gang members who were killed in the previous battle to support the headquarters.

The efficiency of the assembly was very high, and within a short time, there were nearly 20 people before the building was broken.

Su Lun was considered half an old man, and he was a little surprised to see that almost all the "newcomers" gathered in front of the broken building.

After waiting for a while, Kay counted the number of people, and said neatly as always, "Okay, everyone is here, ready to go."

Dealing with distortion incidents is a very good practical experience. After listening to the veterans of Sam, Su Lun knew that this time the captain planned to take the newcomers to practice actual combat.

Everyone got on the locomotive, Kai explained the content of the operation, and said: "It is said that many homeless people have disappeared in Tongzilou these days. Some people saw gnawed corpses, and also saw deformed ones. The monster may be that the seal in the nearby sewer was broken, some monsters came out, or a 'cursed object' appeared. Anyway, our mission this time is to clean up the basement near the Tongzilou incident. If you are lucky, Maybe we can find an antique cursed object buried underground; no matter how bad it is, we can get a few cursed materials. At that time, everyone will have bonus points."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go."

Everyone nodded: "Yes, Captain!"

Su Lun remained silent in front of Xiao Transparent as always.

Although the "distortion incident" is a daily incident of gangsters, it is not without casualties, especially for inexperienced newcomers.

Su Lun was not careless.

He observed the people in the team, checked that his equipment was correct, and then silently boarded the locomotive with several old birds on it.

In addition to the bustling three entertainment blocks on Green Street, there is also a tube building on the north side, which is a "slum" in the civilian area.

The ruins of ancient buildings thousands of years ago have preserved a number of dilapidated tube buildings that are still inhabitable, and therefore gathered a large number of homeless poor, tramps and thieves. But that's a place where even the gangsters don't want to set foot. Plague, stench, mess and distortion are synonymous with that area.

Everyone on Green Street rushed all the way to Tongzilou, and there were already people waiting here.

"Captain Kai, you are here!"

The one who spoke was a little old man in sackcloth, "One-Eyed" Bravo. This guy is also the leader of the thieves in the Green Street area. He has dozens of thieves under him all the year round, who specialize in learning some stealing techniques to make money.

Talented people will also be sent to the gang to be trained as professionals.

It can be regarded as a personnel transportation organization under the Cross Society.

Kai nodded, and the old man was familiar, so he was polite, "Old man, where did the accident happen?"

Bravo: "You guys come with me."

The little old man led a group of people through the ruins.

There was a strong stench of sewers in the air.

Su Lun's eyes scanned the surrounding environment from time to time, and saw yellow and thin faces emerging from the simple huts, staring at them curiously and timidly.

This is a resident of the tube building.

There were also some children aged ten or eight, dressed in tatters, stepping on the ruins with bare feet. They followed the group of people on Green Street far away, their eyes full of envy and longing.

In the outer city, there are many such poor people. No one knows the exact number, but it is huge anyway.

Their lives were as cheap as rye, and a hundred lisos bought a human life. In such a harsh living environment, only sewer rats can survive, but they survived tenaciously.

The poor in these shanty towns are also one of the most important reasons why the inner city gave up governing these urban areas.

The Cross will occasionally send a batch of food over.

Because many members of the gang went out from here.

At least Captain Kay is.

The little old man sighed as he walked: "Hey, I don't know what happened recently. The monsters in the sewer seem to be very active. A few days ago, some people heard that they met some beautiful and borderless women in Snail Alley, hehe. I Look, I'm afraid some kind of deformed monster is tempting to eat people. Sure enough, within a few days, all the homeless people in that area disappeared."

Su Lun listened behind him, thinking in his eyes.

Pretty women would be in the custom shop on Green Street, but definitely not here.

But what kind of distortion monster can turn into a beautiful woman?

This again involved Su Lun's knowledge blind spot.

Not long after, the little old man led the people on Green Street to the northernmost section of Tongzilou.

The sewer smell here is stronger, and it seems to be near the outlet of some pipes.

The little old man pointed to a black tube building a few hundred meters away, and said: "Someone saw aberration monsters appearing in that rotten building before, and they will move more frequently when the fog appears at night. But you also be careful, that area There is a burrow downstairs, the depth seems to be connected to the underground pipe network, I don’t know what monsters are hiding, don’t go too deep.”

After listening, Kay waved his hand and said, "Okay, leave the rest to us."

Then there's the matter of the fighters.

He pulled the bolt, and then said to Su Lun and everyone behind him: "Brothers, let's get to work!"

The little old man didn't bother, and stayed where he was.

Everyone put on gas masks and night vision goggles, and strode into the broken building.

Su Lun took the shotgun distributed by the gang and clicked it into the chamber.

These scattered muskets are more suitable for dealing with aberrations than pistols. Even without alchemy bullets, a few more shots can beat the monster to pieces.
