Chapter 939: Fog Capital East District
The capital of Britain, known as the Fog Capital.
It was once a real-world financial center, an industrial city, and even one of the most prosperous cities at one time.
Many of the archetypes of steampunk capitals are also often taken from the fog capital of the glory days.
Before dawn, it was the darkest time of the day.
Wudu East District.
Known as the abyss of reality by people of insight, this urban area is the lowest level of the fog capital and the area where wanderers gather.
When the fog capital was at its most glorious, it was also the time when the bones and blood and tears in this urban area were the deepest.
The place where the poor have no future, the abyss, is also the adjective that came to life in this urban area at that time, and it is not an exaggeration.
As Britain declined, the people living in this part of the city were less miserable.
But there is no hope.
Get by by on relief.
Jill is a white-skinned, gray-haired old man who has just moved to the East End with his companions.
They were supposed to have villas to live in.
Many uninhabited villas on the outskirts of Wudu have always been good places for them to go for homeless people, and even if the owners of the villas know, they are often powerless to drive them away.
However, in the past two years, there have been more and more refugees who have no law, and they will soon have their eyes on these sites as well.
As a result, Jill was kicked out with his companions and had to come to the East Side to live on church and official relief meals.
As for work, it's impossible to work, it's impossible to work in this life.
"It's cold!"
Jill suddenly woke up from her sleeping bag and quickly sensed as if something was crawling not far away.
"Wildcat?"
Jill purred, he slept in a park that was no longer maintained, and it was normal for wild cats and dogs to be here.
But...... Jill suddenly saw the reptile suddenly turn its head to look at him.
In the dark of the night, it is dim and difficult to see.
But!
What the hell is this! How can your eyes be like green flames that are burning?
Weird and scary!
"Ahh
Just as Jill was thinking, a seeping scream was heard not far away.
Soon, these screams rose and fell, and they became one.
Jill hurriedly got up from his sleeping bag, but in a panic, he was suddenly thrown to the ground by the black mass in front of him.
So Jill couldn't hold back and screamed.
Fortunately, the black shadow only slightly punctured Jill's clothes, and after breaking the skin and bleeding, perhaps because he thought this person was not delicious, he immediately jumped away.
Leaving him in a state of shock, he looked at Jill bleeding from his chest in a daze.
Dawn soon fell, and the sky glowed again.
Jill came back to his senses under the stimulation of the sun, and quickly checked his body, and after seeing that there was nothing wrong, he looked at the grass around him, swallowed his saliva, and vowed never to sleep here again, and then looked for his companions.
Unexpectedly, the eastern district of Wudu, which had just found the same frightened companion and was about to leave the park, and even police cars rarely appeared, drove countless police cars and all kinds of special vehicles early in the morning.
On some trucks, soldiers wearing chemical protective suits even ran down and surrounded Jill and the others.
"Look, the helicopter is coming!"
Jill looked up and saw a helicopter flying in the sky, but the sign on it was not official British.
It is a special security company, the symbol of Montenegro security.
This is a violent organization that has been invited to help the security of Wudu since the Wudu riots began five years ago.
Five years ago, there was an unprecedented riot in Wudu, from the beginning of burning cars, to smashing and looting and even burning buildings.
Even one of the largest department stores in the fog was burned to the brilliance of the mob.
So the upper echelons of the fog capital were angry after being confused.
They brought in retired officials from Citigroup who were the most experienced in suppressing the riots.
And set up a mercenary company of professional soldiers who really dared to kill to solve this crisis.
The result was very good, and the riot, which had not been resolved by the police and the army for a week, was quelled within forty-eight hours after the team came in.
The reason is simple.
How dare they shoot!
And after the rioters are caught, no matter what their identities are, they will be made public and handed over to the official trial.
Many of the local bear children in the fog who took advantage of the chaotic water to fish were shocked and did not dare to continue.
Jill was not afraid of the Wudu police, and when he saw that these security forces were also dispatched, he couldn't help but panic.
What's to be done?
That's too much, isn't it?
Lord, please save us!
While Jill silently prayed in her heart.
Inside a command vehicle, Commander Arnold, who had been dug up from Citigroup but was still in good spirits with white hair, was discussing the next course of action in a low voice with a senior official and several experts.
Commander Arnold is interested in transcendent events.
He was an ambitious man, otherwise he would not have been poached by Britain to take up this position under the pressure of public opinion.
After learning of the extraordinary anomalous events in the eastern part of the fog capital, Arnold felt that his opportunity had come.
As the most powerful official knife outside of the army, Arnold hopes to show the greater value of his team, so as to gain more resources and power.
He longed for his Montenegrin mercenaries to be as brilliant as the French Foreign Legion.
Even...... There is really a great catastrophe for the whole world, as some prophets do.
He who has mastered the real military power may not be able to go further!
"Everyone, please see, this is a high-definition image that has just been restored by the institute."
"This is the culprit who took advantage of the darkness to attack the citizens of the eastern district of the fog capital not long ago!"
With an expert opening a video.
Arnold and several officials widened their eyes and looked at the monster on the screen in some surprise.
They all recognize this monster.
But it is precisely because of the recognition that it is the reason why I feel more afraid.
"Isn't this a mouse?"
Arnold stretched out his right hand and pointed at the black shadow monster on the screen and said:
"But how can it be that big!"
"How can there be a mouse bigger than an adult Erha!"
“……”
Arnold's exclamation was also the confusion of the other officials.
The rat is suddenly that big, if it's an anomaly caused by an extraordinary factor?
That...... Is it possible that this mutation can also cause mutations in other places, and even cause other creatures to mutate as well!
If only the rats in the entire fog capital were that big.
If it's a cockroach, the ants are getting bigger!
The rumored doom change will not come to the Fog of Britain first!
For a time, the atmosphere in the command car.
I'm so nervous!
And outside the car, a strict disinfection procedure begins.
Jill and others were also taken to the makeshift camp for blood tests and other procedures immediately after they were taken to the camp.
Meantime.
The street's sewer manhole cover is opened, and a group of unmanned robots are dropped into it to find out where the big rats are hiding!
