Chapter 48: Mincing
"Don't, don't, I'm still useful. I can help you with a lot of things...... Don't ......"
Ben-1, who had only one head, let out a miserable cry, as helpless as if he had been raped. However, he had an empty head and was powerless to struggle, and was thrown up by Chen Mu vigorously.
Ben 1's head drew a perfect parabola, landed accurately into the booming vat, and with a scream, lost its motion.
At the same time, Chen Mu continued to throw the other parts of the monster that he had mutated into into the bucket.
Dong Hongfeng also made the same action, and the two scrambled to throw the monster's still wriggling body into the bucket as if they were competing.
"The last one!"
The two of them each held the last of the monster's body, looked at each other, and then threw it into the bucket.
Boom, boom......
The vat was constantly stirring, never tireless, crushing and crushing the body that had just been thrown in...... until the real powder is broken and becomes a mashed meat.
Chen Mu and Dong Hongfeng looked away from the vat with a little expectation and looked at the watch.
After dismembering the monster's body, it still hasn't been able to kill it completely.
Dong Hongfeng proposed a way to burn all these bodies, but they were able to find flammable fuel to use up the dormant monsters, and they had already run out. Since there is no combustible material nearby, it would be a waste of time to find fuel again.
In the laboratory, these tourists had told each other about their experiences, and Chen Mu also learned from Dong Hongfeng that the function of these vats was to crush the cloned bodies that had failed.
After thinking of this, Chen Mu proposed to completely crush the monster's body through these vats. His suggestion was immediately agreed by Dong Hongfeng, and the two immediately divided the monster's body into two parts, each responsible for handling one part.
The reason for this is naturally to get the last chance to kill the monster, after all, the killer can get 3 potential points, which is too tempting.
So both of them rushed to throw the monster body into the vat and crush it, and quickly completed this step.
Dong Hongfeng looked at his watch, waiting anxiously, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. He glanced up at Chen Mu, although Chen Mu looked at his watch carefully, he looked much more indifferent than Dong Hongfeng.
Seeing Chen Mu's performance, Dong Hongfeng once again understood that Chen Mu, as a strengthener, was able to survive Han Qiang's hostility, and it was no accident that he finally carried out the task to this point. At the very least, this kind of calmness and indifference is not comparable to ordinary people.
However, Dong Hongfeng thinks that he is not an ordinary person, is he, as a secondary strengthener, not as good as a mere Chen Mu?
At this moment, Dong Hongfeng took a deep breath and calmed down.
Chen Mu noticed Dong Hongfeng's gaze observing him, and looked up strangely.
Dong Hongfeng's gaze dodged slightly, but he immediately realized that he should behave more calmly, at least better than Chen Muqiang! Thinking of this, Dong Hongfeng looked at Chen Mu's gaze, and even deliberately showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, but this smile looked very unnatural.
Chen Mu was a little confused by Dong Hongfeng's smile, and wondered what that smile that was more ugly than crying meant, could it be that Dong Hongfeng was finally stupid after his body was damaged?
The two of them have their own thoughts, and they have all kinds of thoughts about each other.
And suddenly, there was a vibration on the wrists of the two of them at the same time, and Chen Mu hurriedly looked down.
Dong Hongfeng didn't care about any composure and smile, and hurriedly looked over, and new information flashed on the watch, and the content was very simple: "Cooperate to kill Ben's mutant, and the time to obtain it is 210 days." ”
Gone?
Dong Hongfeng looked at the watch carefully, and the fingers of his right hand clasped the watch, as if he wanted to pull out the other words from behind.
Unfortunately, there is no other information.
A strong sense of disappointment welled up in his heart, Dong Hongfeng raised his head suddenly, his eyes were red, he stared directly at Chen Mu, and asked, "You...... Have you gained potential points? ”
His voice suddenly changed tone, and his fists couldn't help but clench.
Chen Mu looked away from his watch, his face was not surprised or happy, and he shook his head slowly: "No! ”
"No?"
Dong Hongfeng couldn't help but scream sharply, his face was full of disbelief, how could this be possible?
"I thought you had gained potential points, but I only got more than two hundred days and no potential points. If you haven't obtained it either," Chen Mu thought for a moment and said slowly, "I think it may be that we didn't kill it with our own hands. After all, in the end, we crushed it to death by external force, not by our own strength. ”
Chen Mu's words made Dong Hongfeng calm down a little, and I have to say that what Chen Mu said is also very reasonable. Dong Hongfeng did not know how the watch verified whether the task was completed, but the results were extremely accurate.
For example, to kill a beast, one person is responsible for doing it, while the other person is responsible for intercepting it. If you kill it like this, even if the person who intercepts it doesn't do it himself, you can still be counted as participating in the kill, and you will gain some time.
Similarly, for some tricky kills, such as kills using external conditions, instead of taking matters into their own hands. Even if there are no other tourists involved, it is difficult to count as a direct kill.
The mutants who have killed Ben so far, the real "killers" are actually the vats that keep grinding corpses, which may be the reason why they don't gain potential points.
Although Dong Hongfeng was still skeptical, the look on his face was slightly softened.
"Show me the information about your watch."
Dong Hongfeng said, with a bit of politeness in his tone, which seemed unquestionable.
Chen Mu didn't care about Dong Hongfeng's attitude, he felt that Dong Hongfeng's attitude was normal, he didn't object, but said: "Yes, but you also want to show me your watch information." ”
Dong Hongfeng has no objection to this.
The two approached each other, and each other was a little more wary than when they had worked together before, and carefully looked at each other's watches.
When Dong Hongfeng saw that Chen Mu's watch information really did not have the information of potential points, he was finally completely relieved. He would rather not get either of them, and it is better than Chen Mu getting it and he didn't.
But immediately, Dong Hongfeng saw that Chen Mu had gained more time than himself, and he was still a little uncomfortable. However, the time is about the same, and whether it is the degree of effort at the time of killing or Chen Mu's use of formalin, the contribution to killing is indeed greater than Dong Hongfeng, and he has no way to question it.
"Okay. Didn't get it, and I can't help it. Dong Hongfeng exhaled slowly, "Now that the tasks are all completed, I finally feel at ease." ”
"Hmm!" Chen Mu nodded.
"There's still some time to go, what are your plans?" Dong Hongfeng asked.
"Get out of here as soon as possible!" Chen Mu did not hesitate.
Dong Hongfeng nodded, looked around, and said, "I'm also a little uncomfortable here." Let's go! It's good to get out of here early. By the way, I have to call that person...... That Zhao Yue, alas, the newcomer is really troublesome! ”
After speaking, Dong Hongfeng turned around and walked forward.
Chen Mu followed behind him, glancing at his watch from the corner of his eye, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.
Before they arrived at the laboratory, they had already seen Zhao Yue walk out of it from a distance, his face was pale, but he was in good spirits.
"Brother Chen, Dong ...... Brother Dong, the task is complete? ”
Seeing that Chen Mu and Dong Hongfeng were very relaxed and walked over, and then saw a little embarrassment in the two of them, Zhao Yue immediately guessed the result.
"Hmm!"
Chen Mu nodded, as always, he said very little.
"Harvest, not bad, right?" Zhao Yue asked tentatively.
He knew the reward for success in Mission Four, and for a newcomer like him, the temptation for that reward was great.
"It's okay."
Dong Hongfeng replied, a smile on his face.
Since he didn't get the potential points, although he was a little regretful, there were no more knots in his heart. And after all, the harvest of more than 200 days is already quite expensive, and it is worth rejoicing.
"Alas, it's a pity I didn't attend."
Zhao Yue thumped his chest, revealing a look of regret, as if he regretted the time he might get after participating.
"Let's go!"
Chen Mu didn't care about Zhao Yue's expression and said.
"Leaving so soon?"
Zhao Yue blurted out, knowing that after Chen Mu and Dong Hongfeng completed task four and received a reward, he suddenly felt that he had gained too little, and if he stayed here, he might be able to find an opportunity to gain time.
"If you don't want to leave, you can stay."
Chen Mu left this sentence, turned around and left. Dong Hongfeng laughed and followed behind.
"Alas, wait for me!"
Zhao Yue was still hesitating, but when he saw that the two of them were gone, he looked around and suddenly shuddered after seeing some blood stains and the stump of the clone. It's full of corpses, and it's horrible to stay. Without Chen Mu and Dong Hongfeng here, he really didn't dare to stay here as a newcomer.
The three of them slowly left the base camp and walked outside.
When it was far away, Dong Hongfeng recalled the situation of killing the mutated monster, suddenly thought of something, and asked Chen Mu: "Since formalin can deal with monsters, why do monsters go to the North Building, which is full of formalin smell?" And I think it's a little strange to choose to hibernate there. ”
Hearing his words, Chen Mu stopped abruptly, and his expression changed slightly.
"What's wrong?" Dong Hongfeng was puzzled.
Chen Mu looked back at the direction of the base camp, "I want to ...... Something we may have overlooked. ”
"What?"
"Forget it." Chen Mu shook his head, "It may be too late to go back." ”
With that, he lifted his steps and continued to walk forward, as if the conversation had not taken place.
Dong Hongfeng and Zhao Yue looked at each other, a little dazed by each other's faces.
But then Dong Hongfeng shrugged his shoulders and followed, shouting: "Anyway, the task is completed, no matter what, Lao Tzu will not go back." ”
And not long after they left the base camp, the ground on the first floor of the north building was full of charred places, and a woman suddenly moved out of it.
If Dong Hongfeng knew, he would definitely come back without hesitation, because this woman ...... It was Lu Yanxia who he hated to the core.
