Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 4: Crazy plan

Views:

Renn has received professional [stealing] skills training at the base, and it only takes three or two seconds to touch a corpse.

After a moment, he frowned in disappointment and murmured: "That's not right. Why doesn't this guy have anything valuable?"

Except for a solid gold pocket watch, Lane found nothing else of value on the body.

But in a blink of an eye, he saw a dark storage ring on the ring finger of the corpse's left hand, and he was suddenly happy again.

"This guy actually has... a space storage ring!"

This kind of space equipment is priceless in this world. It is an exclusive storage treasure for nobles and high-level extraordinary beings.

Having such a thing means that there is a priceless treasure in the ring!

Without any hesitation, Ren touched the black ring, as if he had opened a computer folder in his previous life, and then a dazzling array of items appeared before his eyes.

This storage space of about one cubic meter contains a large number of precious metal coins, including gold crowns, silver narles, and large-denomination banknotes issued by the Omar Imperial Bank.

Then there are some extraordinary professional books for doctors, some strange materials and rows of potions.

This is a huge amount of wealth that can make anyone jealous!

... .

"Developed!"

When Ren saw so many things in the storage ring, he immediately realized that this was his "big opportunity."

But in an instant, thoughts started racing in his mind again.

"This guy escaped. The people of the 'Weasel Group' above must not be dead yet. As soon as they come down, they will definitely track down the body. Even if I run away with the things, Kui, who has unlocked the three-stage genetic lock, Well, the possibility of escaping is extremely low! And now that Tiger is dead, the [Zombie Potion] toxin in my body is still there... Unless I get the antidote, escaping now is not the best option."

After thinking for a moment, Ren realized that this was not the best time to escape.

At the same moment, an even crazier plan flashed through his mind.

As long as the plan can come true, it is very possible to escape the control of the "Weasel Phantom Thieves" and become rich overnight!

"Finding wealth and wealth in danger, let's do it!"

After weighing it for a moment, he took action without hesitation.

Renn did not carefully count the contents of the storage ring, and did not even move the ring. Instead, he put all these things into the folding space carried by the "intelligent brain".

Baron Morin's body still remains the same!

Sewage flows across the sewers, leaving few traces.

The assassin's new training subjects included trace tracking and counter-tracking. He dealt with them briefly, and then returned along the original path.

Although there are still some small flaws, Renn is sure that even if the senior officials of the "Weasel Group" discover something suspicious, they will never doubt him in a short time.

After all, catching a thief takes away the dirt!

No one would have thought that he has a folding space carried by the top-notch technology of the 21st century, the "intelligent brain", and can hide things without a trace!

Without the stolen goods, there would be more room for him to quibble and for others to imagine.

... .

After doing all this, Ren immediately returned to the previous sewer intersection.

Looking again, Captain Tiger and the other two newcomers had indeed been killed by the poison gas.

The concentration of poisonous gas in the surrounding area has been reduced a lot due to air circulation, but there is still a fatal risk.

In my mind, the "intelligent brain" kept ringing danger reminders.

"This poisonous gas can easily kill an extraordinary person instantly. The toxicity is really severe."

Renn didn't dare to be careless.

Under the prompts of his brain concentration, he carefully chose an upwind outlet slightly away from Tiger's body to avoid being killed by the poison gas.

Then, he took two sharp breaths of poisonous gas that was enough to cause coma but not fatal.

In an instant, the pungent smell like ammonia filled his respiratory tract, and he immediately felt that his vision went dark and he completely lost consciousness.

Now there is a high possibility of being caught while escaping, but... the most dangerous place is actually the safest!

That's right, he planned to pretend to be poisoned, fish in troubled waters, and then return to the base to get the antidote for the [Zombie Potion]!

... .

I don’t know how long it took, but my consciousness gradually recovered.

Vaguely, Renn heard someone talking in his ear.

"Have you found those things yet?"

"No... "

"Leader Quinn, Baron Morin's storage ring is empty. Either the guy hid the things somewhere else before he escaped into the sewers; or someone took those things away after he died... "

"Since someone took those things, why didn't that person just take the storage ring? Now it seems... The most likely possibility is that Mo Lin had a back-up plan and hid the things before escaping into the sewer... . ”

"I didn't expect that guy to actually hide the poison gas bomb. The noise of the operation was too big, attracting the city guards of the 'Burning Steel Castle', and we had to evacuate in a hurry. If the things are still in the manor , then it is very likely that it fell into the hands of Marquis Barrett in the end. If that is the case, it will be troublesome... "

"However, some suspicious traces were found in the sewer. I don't know what happened..."

"This is what I'm confused about. Those traces don't look like sewer rats. Unfortunately, Tiger is dead. Only the newcomer who was unconscious after inhaling poisonous gas is still alive in the sewer, and no one knows what happened. And , I have personally searched several people's bodies, and also searched nearby areas, and there is no trace of hiding anything..."

"Let's wait until 9527 wakes up and then ask..."

"Hey... This is troublesome. The Lord used the secret agent lurking in the 'Burning Steel Castle' to let us lurk in. Now that we haven't got the things, how should we communicate..."

... .

Ren looked at the time prompt on the "Intelligence Brain" and realized that he had been in a coma for three days.

Looking at his surroundings again, he immediately confirmed that he had now returned to the headquarters of the "Weasel Phantom Thieves".

"The base's medical laboratory! Sure enough, I came back here..."

This was what was expected. Lying on the medical bed, Renn looked at the sealed cabins around him and felt relieved.

As expected, not long after Ren regained consciousness, leader Quinn and several senior members of the Phantom Thieves came to inquire in person.

After all, he was the only one alive in the sewers, and everyone wanted to know what happened to Baron Morin after he escaped into the sewers.

Unfortunately, Ren's answer was naturally that he didn't know anything.

He said he fainted after inhaling a breath of the choking gas.

In the eyes of others, his statement was completely flawless.

Happening to be on the edge of the headwind passage and the poisonous gas explosion is the only reasonable explanation for 9527's survival.

After all, Tiger, the "awakened one" who unlocked the first-order gene chain, is dead. It can only be luck for a new person to survive.

Under normal circumstances, if Renn had not been reminded by his "intelligent brain", he would have been killed by poison gas in the sewer before he could react, like Tiger and the other two newcomers.

Moreover, no one would have thought that after stealing the items in the storage ring, he would boldly return to the poisonous fog area and faint himself with the poison.

... .

Next, Renn will get the antidote to the [Zombie Potion] in his body here!
