I’m Not Shouldering This Blame

Chapter 94: Weird wind

Views:

The wind and sand filled the sky, and an off-road vehicle with a military license plate bumped forward.

The road ahead was barricaded, and a team of heavily armed soldiers was patrolling. The SUV slowed down for inspection, the windows rolled down, and the driver handed out a black booklet that looked like a notepad.

The person in charge of the inspection took a special flashlight and took a photo, and a red giant dragon appeared on the originally empty cover, with a body like a snake, antlers on its head, long beards on its lips, and glittering scales. Under the dragon's claw is an oval badge with a military rank on it.

The inspector saluted and handed back the booklet with both hands.

The off-road vehicle driver was very thin, with prominent cheekbones and small eyes, which looked very incompatible with the heroic image of a soldier. He picked up the wireless communication device in the car and said into the microphone: "Albatross has reached the blocked road, one kilometer away from the target location, please instruct the branch, it's over."

"Wait in place for two minutes and prepare for satellite positioning."

"Yes!"

The driver closed the window and turned his head to explain: "Yesterday, another special forces team went missing, and the satellite only found the wreckage of the vehicle. Major Zhang asked me to tell the two of you that this operation is very dangerous."

The people in the back row of the car are Jian Hua and Li Fei.

Jian Hua did not agree with Li Fei's departure from the southern city "occupied" by mushrooms, and he was even more reluctant to contact the Red Dragon personnel in the real world, but the large monster Li Fei wanted to find didn't even have a shadow.

The Red Dragon provided two locations, one was the mountain where the spider Guan Sheng died, but the mountain was so big that it was difficult to find spiders across a world, and there was no fixed entry point for the abandoned world. Li Fei ruled it out.

What remains is a certain section of the Ganzhou National Highway where accidents frequently occur. It is also the place where the members of the Holy Gate Organization who used their identity as journalists as a cover disappeared. The forced road closure put a lot of pressure on the government, and there was a lot of public opinion. After failing to solve the problem several times, the red dragon thought of Heiyuan.

In other words, I thought of the Balrog and the Devourer.

"Before the road was closed, there were traffic accidents one after another, and the vehicles were hit by an inexplicable force, causing them to roll over. We suspected the influence of the abandoned world, but we couldn't find the culprit."

The thin man who drives is still an acquaintance to Jian Hua and Li Fei.

- They joined forces to set Liu Shan's words.

At that time, the name of the thin man was Zhao Wen, which was obviously a pseudonym, but Jian Hua did not ask. People always have a name, what name is not? The thin man also talked about his experience. He worked undercover for the drug lord in his early years. Having such an experience, it is estimated that he has become accustomed to various pseudonyms.

This time, Colonel Lu in the northern capital specially dispatched the thin man over here, and he was familiar and cooperated.

Zhang Yaojin, as the leader of the national ability team, handles countless events every day, and he can't get out of it at all, and his ability is more suitable for fighting humans, so he doesn't have much advantage over monsters.

"The terrain at the accident site is open, with no hills and no bends. Preliminary investigation by the instrument found that there was a deep hole in the ground, covered by a half-meter-thick soil layer above."

Li Fei thought about that picture for a long time, but still couldn't find any creatures that fit the description from the "Abandoned World Monster Manual". There are also monsters living in caves, but they are all dark and damp caves. Gophers, but mice are vulnerable in the eyes of high-level power users, and they are not so troublesome.

"Again a monster that wasn't in the original plot?"

Jian Hua still remembers the spider holding the egg. Mycelium forcibly turned the little spider into a puppet, which accelerated the spread of mushrooms in eight cities in the south. by this means.

In the end, can the newly hatched spiderlings be able to use it, or can the spiders that "should not appear" do it? Jian Hua has never been able to figure it out.

The radio in the car came out with new instructions.

"Albatross, please note that the current satellite image scans show that there is nothing unusual about the suspicious locations. You can move forward."

The thin man rolled up the window, waited for the barricade to be pushed aside, and started the vehicle.

"This road leads to Ganzhou?"

"There are also several nearby counties. In fact, we have been here, when we filmed "The Crow" last year."

This brief conversation caused the atmosphere in the car to become strange. The thin man glanced at the rearview mirror suspiciously, Jian Hua kept his eyes fixed, and Li Fei checked the information on the tablet. There was still a distance between the two, no matter how they looked. It's normal, where does the weird feeling come from

"Strictly speaking, the incident occurred at a distance of 430 kilometers from the Lanxin Highway section."

The thin man looked serious, he glanced at the map, and explained: "Because the guess is the influence of the abandoned world, the road was blocked to prevent the passers-by, but it was completely useless! The newly dispatched special forces have been confirmed to be ordinary people, it is reasonable to say It's impossible to fall into the abandoned world, and you heard it just now."

"The satellite didn't capture it?"

"In this season of previous years, the sandstorm was not so big."

The thin man's implication made Jian Hua frown.

Abandoning the world has an increasing impact on reality. No matter how reluctant the country is to cover up these things, the truth will eventually emerge, perhaps in a tragic way.

Before that, the Red Dragon could only drag on for a day.

This time the state promised Heiyuan on very generous terms, not to mention Li Fei, even Jian Hua was moved.

For the expansion of mushrooms, they have long thought of using express delivery.

China's online shopping boom has spurred the booming of the express delivery industry. Even in Europe and the United States, it is difficult to receive the same item after one day. Three days is fast, seven days is normal, and the mycelium will run away halfway. There is no "food" in the express package. Even if Jian Hua is squatting at the door of the express company's warehouse, there is no guarantee that the mycelium can reach other places smoothly.

Well now, after receiving the "Mushrooms from the South" box, the professor from Beidu Research Institute provided Red Dragon with a sealed jar, which was modified from the container for transporting dangerous chemicals. He also suggested putting mice in the jar. as mushroom nutrients.

Heiyuan helped solve the hidden dangers of the Ganzhou highway. Red Dragon directly gave Heiyuan a thousand jars made of this special material, plus further information exchange, research cooperation, and the most important thing is to negotiate the issue of ability users to pass the security check.

Li Fei himself has mycelium, so he is not afraid of the security check and the police, but other abilities are different.

In the later stage of the original work, the social order was about to collapse, and the ability users could come and go freely. In the early days, everyone could only squat. Now this problem has also been solved by Beidu Research Institute.

A miniature energy jammer, those with abilities below Grade B can pass through the security gate at will.

It is only useful for the energy on the power user, and other dangerous items are not affected.

For this new product, Red Dragon promised to give Heiyuan 200 pieces. Even if Li Fei suspects that the miniature jammer itself will send out a signal, which is convenient for the state to supervise, but the influence of the ability person under his command to dare not go out is too great. Many people cannot live a normal life, and many resign and drop out of school.

As for those with abilities above B rank.

—Let’s still use mycelium bottle, high-tech material, completely sealed, valid for five days, take a bottle and pour it on your body when preparing for security check, the characteristics of high-level power users will make mushrooms willing to stay on them until food is found.

It can be expected that near the airport and subway security gates, there will probably be no monsters to survive in the future.

The curve is an important way to save utilities...

Even Li Fei could not say what the prospects of such cooperation are.

Heiyuan and Red Dragon are too close, and the favorable situation of win-win is indeed very good, but the ties are too deep, there is no secret. It is a pity that it cannot be refused at present. Heiyuan is just an empty shell. It cannot have a research institute or a factory for manufacturing high-tech materials.

Especially those who have read the book and know the plot can stare at Heiyuan! This is the rhythm of jumping under the eyes of the state, and Heiyuan is destined to take a completely different path from the original.

Low-key or something, it depends on the mood.

Mystery or something, hey Corgi!

The tires of the off-road vehicle were entangled with mycelium, and Jian Hua intentionally activated his abilities to control the growth of mushrooms on the side of the road. Without food, the mycelium lacks interest and does not grow vigorously.

"I'll call for support and let the helicopter drop a box of guinea pigs?" The thin man asked sincerely.

"...No, if there really is a large monster, it will immediately become active." Jian Hua couldn't imagine the weird scene where the helicopter dropped a box of mice, which made him unable to stop thinking about the red dragon and mushrooms after the north-to-north transfer. The picture of the mouse guiding the mushroom to grow in order.

Do you come to the door of important buildings

"Forgot to mention that some time ago, terrorists attacked Jincheng Railway Station. As soon as the incident happened, the mushrooms stimulated by blood tied the victim and the perpetrator together. There was no major incident. Colonel Lu was very happy, but the northern capital Views of you at the top are polarized."

The mushrooms that effectively prevent killing are also the mushrooms that are sensitive to blood.

Jian Hua's face was expressionless, and Li Fei didn't care either.

At this time, a gust of sand rolled up on the flat ground, obscuring the view, the thin man braked with one foot, and the veins in his hand holding the steering wheel protruded.

"Something's wrong."

The skinny Zhao Wen is only a C-rank ice-type ability user, but his combat experience and sensitivity to danger can be compared with Li Fei's magic eye and Jian Hua's ability feedback scan.

"There is nothing in the wind and sand." Li Fei looked around, there was still some distance from the scene of the incident.

"Every time the Abandoned World arrives, the overlapping point will not appear again at the same location at least 24 hours apart. When did the missing person happen yesterday?" Jian Hua did not find any suspicious targets either.

"Yesterday afternoon, 18 hours from now."

In theory, it should be safe, and there is enough time for the mushrooms to expand the field and let the three of them investigate the environment.

"Keep moving forward, we have to solve the problem. The longer we delay on the periphery, the worse the situation will be." Li Fei said calmly.

After the wind blew, that ominous foreboding disappeared again.

SUVs are back on the road.

Five minutes later, there were some scattered backpacks and shoes on both sides of the road, as well as remnants of headlights. They were half-covered by yellow sand and looked dirty.

"Red Dragon has collected a batch of items, and there is no blood stain. The damaged items seem to fly out and fall."

The thin man slowed down the car, activated the detectors and threw them out of the window. When they were damaged or detected unknown energy, the off-road vehicle with the receiver could immediately find out which direction the danger was coming from.

The off-road vehicle stayed for a while in the underground cavity and the places where people disappeared several times, but no abnormality was found.

The detector's feedback security light is always green and beeps rhythmically.

"The magnetic field is normal, the energy is normal, the image shown by the satellite is normal..."

"Gah!"

A harsh alarm sounded, and the three of them stared at the screen at the same time.

In the energy detectors distributed in a circular area, more than a dozen yellow lights turned on, then turned off, and then the more than a dozen lights behind, the yellow warning signs of horses stretched all the way, as if something was running wildly. Come on, right at this car.

Li Fei immediately turned his head to stare at the car, and countless fine white soft silk covered the road.

"It's getting close!"

The three of them were tense, but only a gust of yellow sand swept past.

"what?"

The yellow line on the picture shows that it has crossed the car to the front.

But there was nothing just now—

"Is it the gust of wind?"

The author has something to say: 430 kilometers of Lanxin Highway is a stalk in the real world. I have not verified the authenticity. I have seen it in mysterious events before.

The setting here is that before the Abandoned World appears, this road is fine.
