Chapter 190: The Advancement of Logic
Leaving the gymnasium of Community 39, the Virginia group of the Archaeological Society did not choose to return.
Before nightfall, the three of them rushed to Community 40 by airboat.
According to the video of the Grotesque Studio, the contaminated area that appears in Community 40 is undoubtedly larger than that in Community 37, and the monsters that appear in it are not comparable to the latter. Although the Archaeological Association and the Thousand Sails City government had mutual disagreements during that time, Virginia, as the president of the Archaeological Society's branch in Thousand Sails City, still paid close attention to the development of the situation, and naturally watched the videos released by the Grotesque Studio one after another.
Since the fighting recorded in the video in Community 40 did not come to fruition, but ended abruptly at the most critical point, no one except the person involved knows what exactly happened in the contaminated area at that time.
Fortunately, a follow-up investigation by the Qianfan City government confirmed that the contaminated area had been destroyed.
However, as far as Virginia knows, they handled the site only after a brief survey and then locked it down.
Because by the time the official team arrived at the polluted area, the corpse of the monster and the polluted area had completely dissipated because of the destruction of Zhu Jue, and all that remained was a large area of traces of battle, and the government of Qianfan City obviously lacked the professional equipment owned by the archaeological association, even if some clues were found, it was difficult to draw a clear conclusion, so it had to be sealed for the time being, hoping to go back and investigate after the follow-up discovery.
Of course, there are also some reasons for Zhu Jue and the priest who fought here at that time, the blizzard summoned by the former is a nightmare for the forensic personnel, and the latter is needless to say, in order to completely solve Zhu Jue's trouble, he not only risked his own life, but also threw the rest of the cadres into the monster transformed into the bone tree.
In the end, not to mention the live mouth, there was not even a piece of scattered minced meat left.
Because of this, after Virginia brought people to the No. 40 community, she did not choose the location of the polluted area near the former North District 3, but chose the pedestrian street where Zhu Jue had blocked the monsters of the brigade, which was not affected by the blizzard, and the information given by the Qianfan City government clearly mentioned the situation here
Crossing several cordons, Hector rose among the rubble, with the same testing equipment used at Community Gym 39 at his heels, and a listening stick to record the latest analysis.
"Hector, how's it going on your side?"
Not far away, Fujita had just finished his preliminary test and asked aloud.
"Mutants. ”
A short word, Hector blurted out, and Fujita nodded in confirmation.
The two men converged and walked briskly towards Virginia, a ruin at the end of the pedestrian street, where she was standing in front of a large pool of blood, which had been additionally marked by the security department.
"Identity detection in progress...... The president of the Archaeological Society's branch in Thousand Sails City, Ms. Virginia, is authorized to pass!"
The prompt sound came from the phone, and in the next second, several rays of light scattered into a light curtain on the front of it, gradually sweeping over the location of the bloodstain.
A virtual light and shadow appeared on the originally empty ruins, and its image was the Ouroboros cadre who was killed by the wind chimes in the first place!
The real corpse has long been taken away by the Security Department, but the entire process analysis, no matter the details, have been recorded by Heaven and entered into the database, which is convenient for subsequent secondary investigations, and the Archaeological Association is now officially cooperating with the government of Thousand Sails City, and Virginia is naturally qualified to view this part of the information.
"At present, the deceased is one of the cadres of the Ouroboros organization, the cause of death is a beast attack, there are obvious bite marks on the neck (the type of beast has not yet been clarified, and mutant beasts are not ruled out), the deceased is the only human at the scene, and it seems that he is the operator of the monster brigade......"
Looking at the test reports that appeared one after another above the hologram, Virginia shifted to the back of the corpse, his gaze in the direction he was facing before he died.
"President, I'm sure there were a lot of mutant monsters on the pedestrian street at that time. ”
Hector handed the test results to Virginia, who didn't answer, just glanced at them to confirm.
"Can you confirm the quantity?"
"Judging from the situation at the scene and the data recorded by the Security Department, there will be no less than 20 heads. ”
"Ouroboros cadres controlled 20 mutants who appeared on this pedestrian street so far from the contaminated area, and were intercepted and killed by the people of the Grotesque Studio...... What's in this direction?"
Virginia asked, pointing ahead and looking at Hector.
"Settlement within Community 40!"
Fujita quickly clicked on the community map, and then said,
"Settlement 5 to be exact, not only that, but according to the security department's inquiries, the target of these monsters is likely to be Settlement 5, and they have destroyed a settlement in North 3, causing a large number of casualties...... The government blocked the news. ”
"Not true. ”
Virginia looked at the gray landscape in the distance.
Even though it's only three o'clock in the afternoon, the visibility in Neighborhood 40 isn't much better than on a normal night.
"This is the information given by the Security Department, they shouldn't be able to deceive insiders in this regard, right?"
Fujita subconsciously thought that Virginia was questioning the information given by the Security Department, and couldn't help but explain.
"It's not that the information is wrong, it's that the motives of the Ouroboros organization are suspicious!"
Although this incident has been highly valued by the high-level of Thousand Sails City, it is still lacking in the eyes of Virginia, a professional who often deals with all kinds of terrorist incidents and cult organizations.
The government of Thousand Sails City has focused its investigation on the contaminated area and the Ouroboros, which they regard as a cult-based terrorist organization, believing that everything they do is to spread terror, in short, killing for the sake of killing.
This is clearly not the case.
Perhaps as a bystander experiencing the events of the underprivileged community, Virginia's instincts told her that the Ouroboros and the other cult that might exist behind them wanted more than just a wave of fear within Thousand Sails.
Today's events in the 23rd and 37th neighborhood are enough to prove her right.
With that in mind, turn your attention back to Community 40.
Why did the Ouroboros create such a large polluted area here?
In terms of terrorist attacks, the number of residents in Community 40 is pitifully small compared to other communities, and the exposure to the outside world is almost equal to zero, and even the official government does not care much about this so-called "garbage disposal site" at the lowest level.
They are slaughtering people here and will not be reported at all, and this kind of behavior is meaningless for a terrorist organization that hates to label itself as a terrorist group that has attacked all the attacks that have taken place in the world, does it?
But if they did, and with such a great deal of effort, there was only one possibility, that what the Ouroboros had done here had never intended to be exposed, and that all they wanted was to cover it up with the seclusion of Community 40 and its lack of attention from the official government.
In contrast to the video footage of the Studio of the Grotesque, the Ouroboros have invested a lot of resources in Community 40, and the contaminated area of Community 37 is seen by Virginia as a bait to draw all the attention of the official government to create more time for their actions in Community 40.
The simplest reason is that the Ouroboros organization is clearly capable of creating a large number of mutant monsters, and when the garrison department sent armed androids to attack the polluted area of Community 37, there were only a few resistances, while in Community 40, a large number of mutant monsters acted in groups!
If it weren't for the people at the Grotesque Studios......
What if the folks at the Grotesque Studio didn't find out here?
Concealed, unappreciated, complex terrain plus weak guards.
The settlement in Community 40 is a fat bite to the hordes of mutant monsters controlled by the Ouroboros, and you can eat it whenever you want!
In the rubble, Hector and Fujita stood side by side, their eyes focused on the chairman who suddenly fell silent in front of him, who opened his mouth to remind them that they would have to meet with Colonel Sacco from the garrison later, and they couldn't delay here for too long, but Hector grabbed his shoulders and shook his head to interrupt them.
"Don't disturb the president's thoughts. ”
As an old subordinate who had followed Virginia from the beginning of the investigation team, Hector knew that all they had to do was watch from the sidelines.
Virginia has always been an excellent person in logical reasoning, otherwise she would not have sat in the position of branch president of the archaeological society at this age.
But don't get me wrong, this is not a personal trait, in fact, the archaeological society attaches great importance to this when recruiting externally, and to some extent its importance is judged before the results of the written test and interview.
The reason is simple, in order to deal with monsters that cannot be guessed by common sense, investigators must always keep their sanity sane.
This made her habitually diverge her thinking and make all kinds of logical deductions, and this is also the case now.
"If it weren't for the interception on the pedestrian street, this group of monsters would undoubtedly break into Settlement 5, and the result would be that the settlement was completely destroyed, resulting in a large number of civilian casualties, is the Ouroboros organization's goal to slaughter the people, obviously not, otherwise there would have been a large-scale massacre in the 37th community, and their goal was not to kill people at all. ”
Stepping over the projection of the headless corpse on the ground, Virginia raised her hand to the location of Settlement 5 and asked herself,
"According to the information given by the epidemic prevention, the infection of the epidemic requires contact with blood, and the special fruit born on the bone tree can catalyze the infected person into a mutant...... Hector, contact the security department immediately, I want to know the situation of the settlement near the polluted area in community 40, and in addition, let the official government sort out a casualty report as soon as possible, and the number of missing people should also be counted!"
