Chapter 6 Into the Mine
It's just that when he left the base by car, a small incident happened, which made Lu Chen's eyes a little strange, the gate of this town is not wide, and it can only accommodate several cars to move side by side, of course, because this base is not big, there is no problem in entering and exiting normally.
But when Lu Chen and the others went out, a large group of contractors entered the base from outside.
The little thing Lu Chen said, of course, was not that they had a conflict with the foreign contractor because of the road, and the contractor was not so brainless.
When he saw the crowd on the opposite side, Renault had already driven the car to the side as soon as possible, waiting for the large army to pass.
At the same time, the contractors in the car were all looking at the team with envy.
There were thirty or forty people in this group, all of whom were high-level contractors, and this was the first time Lu Chen had seen so many contractors appear.
It seems that there are really a lot of high-level contractors cultivated in the space, but if you think about the low-level area of Guang Luchen and them, there is more than one contractor in about half a year, and you can know the number of high-level contractors.
Who knows how many low-level areas there are in the Nightmare Space, and the survival rate of high-level contractors is much higher than that of low-level areas when they are on a semi-annual mission, so it is natural that they can accumulate so many contractors.
When the group entered the town, not only Lu Chen and the others gave way, but the others were also scattering around, making way for the group.
For these behaviors, Lu Chen didn't do anything to stop them, he was just curious about what this team was.
Thinking of asking, Lu Chen didn't hide it too much, and directly asked Renault in the driver's seat.
"Who are those?"
"They are the Warriors, the team that built and controlled this town, and I really hope that one day, I can build a town like them." When he said this, Renault was seriously undisguised with envy.
And heard Renault's explanation. Lu Chen also reacted, this town is not big, and it can have so many contractors, not the War Tiger team.
At the same time, Renault's words also touched Lu Chen a little, of course, what touched Lu Chen was not the prestige that everyone had to back down when they entered and exited.
It's the interests. Even if they don't do anything, the money they draw from some services alone is enough for them to live a very nourishing life.
It's just that Lu Chen also understands that without strong enough strength, it is basically impossible to build a base that can attract the contractor.
This made Lu Chen look at the group of War Tiger members on the march.
Although he didn't use his reconnaissance skills, just by his breath, Lu Chen also felt the strength of the Battle Tiger team, and none of the thirty or forty people were weak. Not only that, but there were even a few characters in the team who made Lu Chen feel threatened.
No one stopped them, the speed of the War Tiger team was very fast, and after only a while, they left Lu Chen's sight, and the town gate was also restored to its original state after the War Tiger team left, and Renault also took this opportunity to leave the town quickly.
The car is driving halfway down the road. All Lu Chen was thinking about was the Battle Tiger team, and he already had the idea of building a town on his own.
It's just that Lu Chen also understands. It's not difficult to build a town, but it's even more difficult to get the approval of the Nightmare Space and the contractor willing to go there.
In Lu Chen's thoughts, the car drove fast, very quickly. Lu Chen left the town in his mind behind, now was not the time to think about this.
Coming out of the town, Lu Chen could finally see the outside world, the place where they were driving now was barren, and there was no vegetation in it. A rudimentary highway spreads over the wilderness, and the contractor travels on this road.
During the drive, nothing happened, and the surroundings were full of wilderness, which made Lu Chen quite regretful, and he also wanted to see the landscape of this world.
After driving for more than an hour, Lu Chen and the others came to their destination, the mine that had been invaded by monsters.
In the process, the contractor in the car also had a conversation, and roughly talked about the direction he was good at, so that it would be better to cooperate.
It's just that in this process, Lu Chen has been excluded by Ji Hong, which makes Lu Chen very helpless.
From other people's conversations, Lu Chen felt that although Ji Hong was a little hot, her lively personality was still very good, and she quickly became familiar with others, and only Lu Chen was disgusted by her.
Because one look was disgusted to such an extent, Lu Chen's malicious guess was that it was likely that he had some bad experience in the low-level area, and Ji Hong would be so unbearable.
Thinking of the chaos and hardship in the low-level area, Lu Chen was even more sure of the idea in her heart, she must have had some painful experience in the low-level area.
When he arrived at the destination, it was not empty, a large group of ordinary humans were waiting for the contractor, looking at the cars next to those humans, Lu Chen knew that they had just arrived.
As soon as Lu Chen and the others arrived, a fat businessman ran over.
"It's Renault, Captain Lei, it's really hard for you this time."
"It's okay......"
Looking at their conversation, Lu Chen also knew that the fat man was the director of this place, and he was also the task he issued, and he was Lu Chen's patron this time.
With just one glance, Lu Chen skipped him, but it was the people behind him who attracted Lu Chen's attention, there was not one person behind him, but nearly a hundred people, judging from the clothes on their bodies and the weapons in their hands, Lu Chen knew that they were mercenaries in this world.
Soon, Renault was talking to the person who issued the mission.
"Don't you need a break?" For Lu Chen, the merchant was still quite polite, of course, this was also because Lu Chen and they had great power.
"No need, go early and finish the task early." In this regard, Renault refused, and Lu Chen and the others had already rested.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you this time."
Nodding, Renault walked over to the group of mercenaries.
"Whoever is the captain, come out to meet me."
"It's me." A one-eyed man with a cannon barrel in his hand stepped out of it.
After looking at it and feeling the aura of war on the captain's body, Renault nodded with satisfaction; "Very good, this time we are going to carry out a mission together, and we will give us a lot of advice."
"Don't dare."
Looking at their conversation, Lu Chen was a little surprised. Turning his head, Lu Chen asked the contractor next to him: "Those mercenaries want to act with us." ”
"Of course." Glancing at Lu Chen strangely, the contractor seemed to think of Lu Chen's identity as a newcomer, and reluctantly explained: "You are a newcomer, you may not know that you are on a mission in this world." We will all use the power of the world itself, of course, most of these do not require us to come forward, and when we carry out the task, the person who issued the task will do it in advance. ”
Seeing that Renault gave instructions to the mercenary captain, and it would not be over for a while, the contractor beside Lu Chen carefully explained to Lu Chen.
"The hierarchy of our contractors was originally born out of this world's mercenary rank, but. Their strength is too low, only one or two levels, and we can enter this world, the lowest are high-level contractors, and among the mercenaries, the strength is equivalent to the strong. ”
"But don't underestimate them, after all, there are many more of them than the contractors, and there are also many ghost levels. Dragon-level, even heaven-level powerhouses. ”
He nodded knowingly. Lu Chen stopped talking, and Renault quickly negotiated with those low-level mercenaries, although the number was in their possession, the strength of the contractor was stronger, so everything was still dominated by the contractor.
Mercenaries are not as difficult as contractors though. But it is also the people who survive on the edge of the knife, they are very obedient to the strong, and they are led by the powerful contractors, and they are not too unconvinced.
With the mercenaries with him, Renault led the group to a deep cave. This is the company's mine.
Mining requires machines, so the cave is large, enough for a dozen people to walk side by side, but when they arrived here, Lu Chen and the others did not immediately enter the cave.
Renault took out a small round ball from his body, clicked it twice at random, and the ball flew slowly towards the cave.
Such a small ball reminded Lu Chen of Skynet's reconnaissance tool in the Terminator world, and Lu Chen was forced very miserably by such a reconnaissance tool at that time.
As a high-level contractor, Renault is not only strong in front, but also not bad in other aspects such as reconnaissance.
When the ball flew in, Renault sensed it for a moment before leading the contractor and the mercenary forward.
In order to work in the mine, there are a series of things such as cables and lights, and these things, those monsters are not all destroyed, and those who walk here do not have to worry about lighting.
It's just that the underground is a little oppressive after all, and there are enemies lurking in the shadows, who may come and attack at any time, the contractors are better, and the mercenaries are a little nervous, and the weapons are tightly held in their hands.
Although the strength of these mercenaries is not too strong, the weapons in their hands can still help the contractor a lot, and Renault doesn't want them to tense their bodies at the moment, and finally see the enemy, so they lose their strength.
"I got the detector just now from other places, it can not only rely on light detection, but also use ultrasonic and thermal energy to detect, as long as the enemy is there, it will definitely be discovered, relax."
Renault is showing his strength on the one hand, giving others confidence, and the effect is very good, after listening to Renault's words, the mercenaries obviously relaxed a lot.
The physique of the contractor is beyond ordinary people, and the mercenaries behind them are also fighting all year round, therefore, Lu Chen and a group of them are moving very fast, and after a while, they came to the depths of the mine, and when they arrived here, although Lu Chen and they had not yet encountered monsters, they saw a lot of corpses that were half devoured by monsters, and there were even blood stains on the surrounding walls, all of which were left after being attacked by monsters.
At this point, the contractors were a little more careful in their actions.
After walking some distance again, Lu Chen and the others were already close to the deepest part of the underground cave.
Before entering here, the contractor had deduced that the monsters in the mines were probably the lair that the miners had dug up when they were mining.
If the guess is true, the current Lu Chen and they are about to enter the enemy's attack range.
At this point, Renault had already taken out the weapon on his body and held it in his hand, not only him, Ji Hong, but also other contractors took out the weapons on their bodies.
In this way, the contractor was on guard and moved forward.
In the process of advancing, Lu Chen's eyes suddenly narrowed, he felt the movement on the ground in the distance, and felt it carefully, Lu Chen felt from the vibration of the ground, that the creature had eight claws moving on the ground, and at the same time, from the vibration amplitude of the ground, Lu Chen learned that the weight of the eight claw monsters was not light, and it should be at least the weight of a car.
Originally, Lu Chen could only feel one, but the more he advanced, the more enemies Lu Chen felt, and in the end, in Lu Chen's induction, there were nearly a hundred eight-legged monsters.
One of them weighed about the same as a heavy tank, and with such a weight, Lu Chen could already imagine how huge the monster was.
With so many monsters, Lu Chen was a little worried, whether Renault and the mercenaries behind him could cope with it.
Lu Chen's induction was far away after becoming a high-level contractor, and at this time, Renault's detector had not yet found anything, and after thinking about it for a while, Lu Chen decided to remind him, after all, he had to make some efforts to join this team.
Having made up his mind, Lu Chen did not hesitate, took two steps forward, and stopped Renault, who was walking in front.
"What's going on, what did you find?" Lu Chen's sudden action surprised Renault a little, but then, he reacted and asked the others to stop, and he asked Lu Chen himself.
"I sensed the enemy, a monster with eight claws, weighing as much as a car, and numbering about a hundred."
Because he didn't know the name of the monster, Lu Chen reported all the information he perceived, and saw if Renault, who had been here for a long time, could know the name and type of the monster from this information.
Before Renault could speak, the mercenary captain who followed the contractor let out a cry of horror: "Eight legs, weighing as much as a car, still living in groups underground, is it a rock spider, damn it, we won't fight them underground, this is an act of seeking death." ”
His frightened Lu Chen didn't care, but soon, Lu Chen noticed that not only him, but also the contractor's face was a little ugly.
This made Lu Chen curious about the monster like the rock spider, but before Lu Chen could ask, Renault's voice came.
"Are you sure you're detecting this monster?" Renault's face was solemn at this time.
The atmosphere of the whole team was solemn, which made Lu Chen also a little curious about the monster he perceived, and nodded: "Although I don't know the appearance of the monster, what I detected is the kind I said, if you don't identify the mistake, it is the rock spider." ”
Lu Chen's words made Renault silent, and after a pause, Lu Chen asked curiously, "What is a rock spider?" (To be continued.) )
