Chapter 35: Bait
Victoria was tall and had a serious expression, and although she was dressed no different from ordinary agents, they were all white shirts and black body armor, but at a glance, they could still see the difference between them.
She is very smart, she has a clear purpose in doing things, she only makes friends with people who are valuable and worthy of her friendship, it is okay to say that she is a refined egoist, and it is okay to say that she represents the American elite of today's generation.
Bella proved her worth, and without a clear personal label, she was put in a range where she could invest appropriately and continue to observe.
Victoria. Hande has a wide range of contacts, she knows many people in the educational, political and military circles, she studied well in college, has many friends, and is a well-known athlete, as for whether she really loves sports, then God knows......
After graduation, he made a wide range of friends, although it is not to the point that Bush Jr. has friends all over the world, but it can be called a broad friendship.
Bella is still in the ignorance of going to college here, Victoria. Hand used his own experience to share some of his experiences and provide some valuable advice that will be useful for her future development.
......
After nearly a day's arduous trek, the group finally entered the Sapalpa Gorge in the early morning of the next day.
After two hundred years of erosion, there is no trace of human life left in the canyon, and as the Indian chief who cursed with his life said, he gave the land back to nature.
The canopy of trees obscures the sky, half-meter-high weeds can be seen everywhere, and the arrival of survivors and agents, a large force of more than a hundred people, has broken the tranquility in the canyon, insects have fled their homes, and some kind of sleeping consciousness is slowly awakening.
The agents don't have to be in harmony with the insects in the canyon, and the curse of the Indian chieftain will erupt on a full moon night, before they need to build a sturdy dwelling against the endless swarm of insects in Bella's mouth.
The agents were somewhat controversial about the level of defense, some thought that it would be enough to build some fortified rooms, others thought that the camp had to be built according to the standards of the fortress, and finally Victoria. Hand threw the question at Bella.
"How big do you think the swarm will be?"
I don't know how big it is! That's a curse, it's a category of magic, and it can't be considered by common sense, such as the food chain, such as the climate and environment.
Bella took out her note: "Look at this paragraph, this is the description that the owner of the note, that is, the missionary, heard from someone else...... He said that the sky was completely covered at that time, and the Indians ...... No, we'll call them Native Americans now! The blood of the aborigines stained the river red, and the colonists ...... No, well, it should be called the Pioneers of the Americas! After the pioneers used civilized means to persuade the aborigines to leave, they were attacked by countless insects......"
In being Victoria. After Hand's correction, Bella had already paid great attention to the use of these words at this time, and no one cared about you in her heart, but you still had to pay attention in public.
"This fortress can't be too strong, and if we keep that unknown enemy out, we're in vain! But it can't be too weak, except for the bait among the survivors who have to face this unknown enemy, the rest of the survivors also have to face the swarm attack brought by the curse. ”
The core meaning is just one sentence, the defense level should not be too strong, but it should not be too weak.
Don't be funny if we're killed by the Indian curse before the Grim Reaper comes.
In modern society, with a lot of machinery and equipment, some houses are built very quickly, entering the canyon in the morning, and in the evening, a medium-sized complex is completed.
The agents had generators, and there was a limited supply of electricity, but there was very little water, and it was conservatively estimated that they would have to stay here for at least two days, even if they could buy water from a distant town, but it would not be wasted.
No one was making a loud noise at this time, everyone was secretly on guard, waiting for the arrival of the unknown enemy.
Whispering is indispensable, and although people can temporarily abandon those unrealistic fantasies under the premise of threatening their lives, a large number of people coming to such a deserted place will always cause some discussion.
Bella doesn't explain this, there are official people, why do you need her to talk more? You can fool around!
Don't say it, Victoria. Hand is a real talent, and the survivors' doubts are prevaricated by several excuses such as "the invisible killer can't kill people in the forest" and "the other party can't use high-tech equipment in a complex environment".
The Grim Reaper is not suitable for ordinary people to know, even to Bella, an insider, Victoria. Hand also used the term 'unknown enemy'.
In order to give the Grim Reaper a chance, the agents deliberately set up a lot of safety hazards in the building.
Broken ropes, leaking electrical appliances, loose iron frames, and all kinds of death traps have been artificially set up by them, from the perspective of death, the survivor is the prey, but if you change the perspective, then you will find that the god of death is also the prey!
If the swarm caused by the curse does not come into contact with the Grim Reaper, it will definitely not work, but if hundreds of thousands and millions of bugs pour in, then they can't withstand it, how to balance the relationship between the two, so that the Grim Reaper is just right against the curse, which is a test of the survivors' ability to control.
"The record says that the curse is launched at night when the moonlight is at its brightest, maybe we can set a few key nodes? ......”
At this time, Bella was not very sure, the words on the missionary's notes were all hearsay from him, and those who had personally experienced this Indian curse were hanging, who knows when the curse will be the strongest.
Victoria. Hand frowned, she had also experienced a lot of supernatural events, and she was not completely ignorant of it.
It is because I understand that I feel that this time is not easy to grasp.
"Let's make two plans, the first ......"
"There's no need to be that troublesome, if you're ready, then I'll take the initiative to trigger the curse."
Storm Girl Oloro has been playing soy sauce, but at this critical moment, she has come out to solve a core problem for everyone.
The Storm Girl is not very old, she looks like she is in her twenties, and Bella wants to go over and get close, but this eldest sister has always kept a straight face and kept her distance from everyone, so she has no chance to speak.
Now is a good opportunity.
Bella took the initiative to ask: "I was the first to foresee the plane crash, and I will be the bait." ”
Victoria. Hand didn't agree, she meant that trained agents would be the bait, and Bella and the survivors would just hide behind.
