Chapter 258: Mystery solved

Then the question arises, the other party has been away for at least half an hour, how can we catch up with them

In this regard, Du Yuqi is also confident. He is not a person who can only ask questions but not solve them. He squatted beside him, brought over a clean white porcelain plate, and then sprinkled some black debris on it. Inside said:

"I found these black crumbs on the carpet, and this is where I found these black crumbs—you can notice that if the guy had been sitting and eating here a moment ago, then this The location is where he put his foot, so there's a good chance it came off the sole of his shoe."

Everyone began to gather around to pay attention to these black debris, which looked like dried asphalt dregs, with a strange and oily luster on the surface, and some strange smells, even the most knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Never seen this thing.

At this time, Du Yuqi hadn't spoken yet, and the captain of the guard, who had been silent all the time, stepped forward and looked at it carefully for a while, and then said with some doubts:

"It seems that I have seen this thing before. When we searched the opera house before, we saw some leftover dirt in the warehouse near the stables. They didn't look the same, but the smell was almost the same."

Du Yuqi's eyes lit up, she stood up and said:

"Where is it, take me there quickly?"

So soon, the captain of the guard led them to the vicinity of the stables, and sure enough, they saw that something seemed to have been knocked over at the door of a warehouse. It looks like dissolved asphalt or sludge in the gutter, and there are several fuzzy footprints left after stepping on it.

Originally, this kind of thing was easily overlooked. If Du Yuqi hadn't caught this detail and mentioned it, then 100% no one would have told him.

Seeing the black greasy stain, the rest of the people were relieved. Since there is such an obvious smell, it shouldn't be too difficult to track it down, but Du Yuqi stared at it and fell into deep thought, as if there was something hidden in it. It's like a mystery.

At this time, others admired Du Yuqi quite a lot, and they couldn't help but look at Du Yuqi and said:

"How did you notice this thing? The black scum on the carpet is inconspicuous at all. At first glance, it looks no different from coal slag, right? You found it all!"

Du Yuqi frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, then shook his head and said:

"The reason why I noticed this thing is very simple, because this kind of thing is very special, I have been in contact with it before, and I have also got the real thing."

As he said, he had already taken out two boxes from the Dimensional Ring. Both boxes were heavy and looked as if they were made of lead. Du Yuqi first chose the smaller lead box and put it After opening it, I found that there was a black lump the size of an egg, which looked similar to a coal lump embedded with small stones, and there was a slight crystallization phenomenon. This thing also emitted a strange smell. The faint smell was exactly the same as the oil on the ground.

Du Yuqi pointed at it and said:

"Ever since I entered the continent of Arad, I have been dealing with mysterious organizations. I found this thing in the settlement of the cursed cat demons near Hutton Mar. The cursed cat demons there are used to They live on the abandoned crater platform, use the heat of the hot spring to incubate the cubs, and call that place Muna Navel Island."

"The mysterious organization placed a source of pollution in the cub gathering pool on Ni Navel Island, polluted the water source there, made the cubs die, and the cursed cat demon living there went crazy. This is me. The source of pollution found on Navel Island."

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, both Mingxi and Duize were taken aback and said:

"Ah? So this is the reason why the cursed cat demon went mad?"

Du Yuqi nodded:

"Yes, I carefully studied this source of pollution when I got back, but I still didn't have any clues. As a result, Tuolin's blessing allowed me to capture clues related to it again."

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, Lin was a little surprised and said:

"Thanks to me?"

Du Yuqi nodded, smiled and said:

"Yes, remember the first time we met?"

Lin pondered and said:

"Is it that time on Xuzu's mountain path?"

Du Yuqi said:

"That's right, that was the first time I saw Xi and Changmei. We are still on the opposing side. Lin, you finally succeeded in burning the goods delivered by the Xuzu Anti-Magic Group."

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, Chang He and Xi's expressions were a little unnatural, while Lin laughed and said:

"I just took it by surprise."

Du Yuqi narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"If you hadn't successfully burned the batch of goods delivered by the Xuzu Anti-Magic Group, I really wouldn't have been able to find the problem in this batch of goods! You see, the second box contains the stuff I never had. Some samples taken from the burnt convoy."

Everyone immediately looked towards the second box, and immediately found a mass of black, greasy, sticky semi-solid stuff, which looked a bit close to the puddle of oil leaked on the ground, uh, it just looked like The thing on the ground is thinner, it seems to have been mixed with a lot of water, and the one in the first box is like a highly condensed block of black oil in the second box.

Obviously, the source of pollution that Du Yuqi brought out, the goods transported by the Xu Zu Anti-Demon Group, and the black oil left by the mysterious organization at this time should all belong to the same type of product, and it can even be said with almost certainty that it is A special product from a mysterious organization, there is no second one!

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, Chang He Xi's expression changed immediately, because the two of them thought of a very serious problem at the same time, and couldn't help but say:

"Then, if you say that, didn't the Xuzu Anti-Magic Group and the others work for the mysterious organization?"

Du Yuqi nodded and said:

"That's right, and according to my guess, Xu Zu's anti-magic group was hunted down and killed before. Maybe it has a lot to do with the goods received this time. The other party knew that the goods were destroyed and might leak the secret, so Pre-emptive strikes and leaked news... Moreover, according to the style of the mysterious organization, even if it is successfully transported, it will probably be silenced."

"Then what exactly is this thing!" Ming Xi's words were like asking everyone's heart out.

Du Yuqi stared at the three samples in front of him, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, he shook his head slightly and said:

"It has a very powerful pollution effect, but it looks similar to fuel... Although I have some guesses in my heart, but there is not enough evidence, so I can't say for sure, but we can ask, others don't know, how to use these black oils Don’t those who carried it know about it?”

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, everyone was refreshed. The smell of this strange black oil is very unique and pungent. It is also in the early hours of the morning, and there are a large number of breath samples here. If you trace it, you really don't want to be too serious. It's easy, because Shatley's place is close to the Snowy Land of Ston, so there shouldn't be too many creatures who are good at tracking.

Because in order to survive in the snow-capped snowy area, finding food in time is an instinct that must be possessed. When everything is covered under the snow, an extremely sensitive sense of smell becomes the most basic prerequisite for survival. Only by finding prey can you survive, if you can't find it, you will be eliminated directly.

In this case, all hounds and the like should stand aside. The most common tracking creature is called the snow needle mouse. The shape of these mice looks like a porcupine, and the hair on the body surface condenses into I usually put away the blue and white smooth ice thorns, and my body becomes a shuttle, which travels very fast under the snow. Once I encounter an enemy, it will hold the ice on the surface of the body like an umbrella. The thorns swell up to protect themselves, making it impossible for the enemy to bite.

The snow needle mouse's diet covers a wide range, any plant, meat, carrion, feces... as long as it is organic, it seems that it can be imported, and its sense of smell is even more terrifying. It can smell the smell of blood ten kilometers away! Its sensitivity is seventeen times that of a hound!

But this thing is difficult to domesticate, and only Bantu animal trainers can successfully make it obedient with secret techniques, but there are not too many Bantus in Shatley, so at this time, we need to find a few domesticated ones Snow needle mice are not difficult.

Soon, everyone continued to move forward under the leadership of three domesticated snow needle mice. After walking through the dark night for about forty minutes, there was a scream in front of them, followed by A series of explosions and firing sounds.

After realizing that there was a fierce battle ahead, all the people dispersed. Those who could come to this bowl of rice were by no means idle people, so everyone was as clever as a rabbit, and Du Yuqi also rushed over immediately. Next to him, and then quickly climbed towards a high place. The intention of doing this is obvious, and naturally it is to be condescending to grasp the overall situation.

I saw a crossroads more than a hundred meters ahead, and it can be seen that an obvious temporary fortress has been built in the middle of the crossroads, and there are refusal horses around it to prevent forced collisions, welded with extremely rough techniques. The steel parapet and so on.

Above the temporary fortress is a thing like a radar, which keeps rotating, but the coverage area is obviously much smaller. It should be useful for detecting biological activities within a few hundred meters around. Du Yuqi and the vanguard of their team should It was discovered by this thing, and now the battle ahead is already in full swing, and the sound of explosions rang out one after another.

Just when Du Yuqi was about to join the battle group, his brows suddenly frowned, because he felt a strange and weak sound of "buzzing, buzzing" coming from his ears, if this sound was heard for the first time , then you will definitely feel very surprised, because although the voice is weak, it is so dull that your chest resonates and trembles.

However, this was not the first time Du Yuqi heard this voice! !

When he entered the continent of Arad for the first time, after he severely injured the clown, he also heard this buzzing sound in his ears. Immediately afterwards, a huge steel fortress appeared and came crashing down to rescue the clown. How can Du Yuqi not be engraved in his heart

"I really got caught!"

At this time, Du Yuqi took a deep breath to restrain his restless mood, and then continued to climb towards the high place, trying to see a higher place. A true portrayal of his mood at this time.

After Du Yuqi came to a higher place, the obstacle blocking the line of sight was thrown under him, and the line of sight immediately became wider. Sure enough, behind the temporary fort at the intersection, there was another square in Shatley City, and In this square, it can be said that the lights are brightly lit, and a huge outline is outlined in dots.

All of a sudden, these rays of light intertwine to form a gigantic object as huge as a city, which can be vaguely seen even in the dark. This giant object is composed of various steel components. The steel giant also opened several doors, and all kinds of people and vehicles flowed through it, apparently transporting a large amount of goods.
