Chapter 491: Bait and Trap
Meng Chao returned to the edge on the other side of the rooftop and overlooked the entire leprosy village.
It is said to be a "village", but it is actually a group of rolling but swaying buildings.
It's like using reinforced concrete to barely fix the ruins that have collapsed long ago, and then building new ruins on top of the ruins.
It is also like a nest of snakes, insects, rats and ants, magnified ten thousand times.
The entire leprosy village was shrouded in clouds of lavender, dark brown and dark red.
Growing up in an old community like Tin Fook Court, Meng Chao was very familiar with this slightly pungent odor.
This is low-order spar doped with a large number of impurities and toxic substances, resulting in insufficient reaction and the release of waste gas.
Compared with Tin Fook Garden, the exhaust gas rippling around and above the Leprosy Village was ten times more intense, almost blocking out the sky and the sun, making the Leprosy Village seem like a village that did not belong to this time and space, but was built directly in the depths of hell.
It seems that the crystal stones used in the Leprosy Village are ten times inferior to those used in Tian Fu Yuan.
This is the lowest quality energy that even buses will not use.
Of course, serious pollution and radiation will be produced, causing unpredictable consequences to the human body.
But the leper villagers themselves are the "unforeseen consequences" of the alien world's continuous erosion of the people on earth.
In order to survive, they need cheap energy and can't afford much.
Under the heavily polluted haze, Meng Chao found a ditch filled with garbage that surrounded the leprosy village.
Most of the garbage has long since decayed and turned into something extremely sticky and rancid, similar to humus in the depths of the jungle.
But more garbage was thrown in, forming hills rising and falling slowly on top of the humus.
Many children in leprosy villages swam nonchalantly through the humus, climbed up the garbage mountain, and picked out resources that had some slight use value.
And from the deepest part of the humus, countless thick, spiked, and constantly wriggling vines grew.
These vines climbed up the ditch, like ivy, and climbed all the way to the facade of the leprosy village building complex.
The originally colorful, mottled and dilapidated buildings have become more monstrous and twisted, like rotting, dying monsters, presenting a style that is completely different from that of a normal community.
"This place... is really troublesome!"
Meng Chao frowned secretly.
The entire leprosy village was shrouded in heavily polluted haze, making it difficult to observe and scan the situation inside.
With his eyes darkened, the difficulty of completing the task and the sacrifices required will definitely increase significantly.
He returned his gaze to the entrance of the leprosy village, the small black market.
Leper villagers and ordinary nest city residents adopt a bartering method of trading without contact with each other.
The entire black market is divided into two sides, each with rows of huge lockers, as well as manually controlled gears and conveyor belts.
When roller skaters bring supplies, they put them in lockers or on the conveyor belt.
The leper villagers will naturally turn the gears with their own hands and pull the daily necessities and raw materials needed for cultivation to their side.
The genetic medicines they concocted in the leper village, as well as the weapons modified beyond recognition and whose lethality was increased tenfold, were also exported to the outside world in this way.
In this way, the two parties do not interfere with each other and reduce the possibility of conflicts.
Meng Chao saw many villagers near the leprosy village, who were descendants of those infected with the zombie virus.
Most leper villagers use large cloaks or bandages to cover themselves airtight and tightly.
But from the overly large and bloated bodies of some villagers, it can still be clearly seen that they are different from ordinary humans.
At least, ordinary humans will never grow to more than 2.5 meters tall and have a shoulder width of more than one meter.
There are also some leper villagers, in order to test the armor, combat uniforms and various personal weapons and equipment sent in from the outside world, they carefully lift off their cloaks and reveal their true colors.
Perhaps because after two or three generations of reproduction, the mutated genes gradually stabilized, they were not as deformed and ferocious as Meng Chao imagined.
Some people have the same facial features as ordinary people, except that they have indigo or red skin.
There are also people with particularly fair skin and even more handsome appearance than ordinary people. Only their ears are raised high and fangs sprout from the corners of their mouths, indicating their status as descendants of infected people.
Some people are short and stocky, not like a dwarf, but like a strong man who has doubled his strength and compressed more than 200 kilograms of muscles into a height of less than 1.23 meters. The whole body is covered with steel.
The brush-like body hair bounces around like a small steel cannon that explodes when touched.
There are also people whose arms are covered with a layer of light scales, and there are traces of parotid glands on their cheeks. It seems that they are more suitable for living in the water than on land.
There are even people with four arms, each of which can be used flexibly. They can lift four firearms at the same time, and their firepower is twice as fierce as that of ordinary people.
Seeing these legendary "descendants of infected people", Meng Chao was slightly startled, and a strange feeling of familiarity emerged in his heart.
"How do you feel that the descendants of those infected with the zombie virus are similar to the indigenous humanoid race that has lived in another world for thousands of years?"
The relationship between people on earth and people from other worlds is not the subject to be examined at the moment.
What Meng Chao is worried about is that judging from the scenes in the memory fragments of past lives, many humanoid races from other worlds have monster-like innate skills. Even untrained individuals have quite fierce fighting power.
I don’t know how effective the leper villagers are in fighting.
At this time, on Meng Chao's retina, more than a dozen small shining light spots appeared on the three-dimensional map representing the terrain around the leprosy village.
"The strong men from the major societies in Golden Teeth Nest City are in place."
"Man-Eating Shark" Zhou Chong told everyone, "A total of thirteen Heaven Realm experts, except for the 'Bad Sword' Jin Wanhao, the elite of the nest city have already left."
There are twenty heavenly warriors in the hunting team.
Including the strong men of Golden Teeth Nest City itself, there are a total of thirty-three heavenly realms, and the lineup is absolutely luxurious.
Even if the target is a doomsday beast or a powerful person in the divine realm, they are confident that they can fight it.
Coupled with the ordinary members of the society, although their level is not high, they have the advantage of having a large number of people, and they are also equipped with a complete set of light and heavy weapons. They have quietly surrounded the leprosy village.
With commanding heights and strategic locations everywhere, and absolutely ferocious firepower set up, the veteran hunters can finally breathe a little easier.
At this time, roller skaters transporting raw materials also arrived at the entrance of the leprosy village.
Chen Hao, the "Knife Brother" outside Chao City, also received a new email from the mastermind behind the scenes.
There are only two lines of numbers on the email.
The first line is the locker number.
The second line is the password to open the locker.
The roller skater stuffed the package containing the locating chip into the locker.
All the senior hunters were staring at this locker.
Members of the society who were proficient in heresy and familiar with the terrain of the Nest City released hundreds of mice that had been biochemically modulated and had chips and electrodes implanted in their brains.
The mice carry tiny cameras and sensors on their backs.
Under human control, dive into the humus, cross the ditch, and find the sewage outlet.
No matter how isolated the leprosy village is from the world, there is always a large amount of domestic garbage and industrial wastewater to be discharged.
It is difficult for humans to sneak in highly toxic and corrosive sewage, but rats that have received biochemical modulation can.
The ultra-sensitive sensor equipped on the biochemical mouse can test the trace components of hundreds of different raw materials in the shortest time.
Soon, the rats followed the sewage pipes and sneaked into the leprosy village.
And it is perceived that there are ingredients for refining "Shenbian Capsules" in industrial sewage.
The deeper you go into the leprosy village, the higher the concentration of the raw materials suspected to be used for Shenbian capsules in the sewage.
Many snakes, insects, rats, and ants that originally lived in the sewage pipes have become excited to varying degrees, as if they were affected by the residual liquid from the Shenbian Capsule refining.
The biochemical rats' breathing, heartbeat and various physiological parameters also began to appear abnormal.
This is enough to show that the Shenbian capsule refining factory is hidden in the leprosy village.
At this time, the packages placed in the lockers were also taken away.
The person who took away the package was a thin child.
It should have played the role of a "roller skater".
He quickly disappeared into the mist and escaped the surveillance of senior hunters.
But the chip in the package can locate his coordinates in real time and roughly scan the surrounding terrain.
Although limited by the transmission power, the scanned three-dimensional map is very blurry.
But by combining the biochemical mice to trace the source and find the coordinates with the highest concentration of the residual liquid from the Shenbian Capsule refining, we can basically locate the location of the Shenbian Capsule refining factory.
"With the positioning chip and biochemical mice, we have roughly scanned 30% of the area in the leprosy village."
"Man-Eating Shark" Zhou Chong looked at Meng Chao and whispered, "When the scanned area exceeds 50%, we have roughly ascertained the location of the Divine Transformation Capsule Refining Factory, and constructed three attack and retreat routes, we will rush in.
Problem?"
"I'm OK."
Meng Chao shook his head and said hesitantly, "But, Senior Zhou, after I sorted through the entire arrest operation, I still feel that there are some things that don't make sense.
“First, why did the mastermind behind the scenes choose a guy like ‘Brother Dao’ Chen Hao to help him?
"No, no, no, I'm not talking about the issue of loyalty. Of course, a traitor who is expelled from the gang cannot have any loyalty at all. Anyone who is tortured will tell the secrets of the mastermind behind the scenes.
"I mean, the features of 'Knife Brother' Chen Hao are too obvious. His arms have been replaced by sharp blades, his legs are also disabled, and he walks with a limp. It's difficult to recognize him.
"With the caution of the mastermind behind the scenes, shouldn't we find those guys who are more common, less eye-catching, and easier to hide? Low-level gangsters like 'Brother Dao' Chen Hao are not rare talents. At least, they shouldn't be left to their own devices."
He is responsible for making a public appearance and welcoming the joint work!
