Volume IV, 98: Be careful with the ground
[Note: You perceive the deadly crisis in Fieldland in advance - the arrival of the Seven Deadly Sins, and the hidden part of the mission is solved by you, plus some of the information you have learned before - the devil's conspiracy, your mission base difficulty will rise to E+].
[Hint: You are rewarded with 300 evolution points, and in addition to this, you can also get the corresponding evolution points and faction points by telling the news to the main characters of the same faction related to the mission].
Chen Xi didn't know that most of the people on his side had fallen under the surveillance of the aliens at the beginning, but this did not prevent his already somewhat pessimistic mood from becoming worse.
"The malice from the Great Universe is unstoppable, and from what I can see, I already feel the vigorous desire from another world that wants to destroy us."
In addition to the information in the system prompt, the encounter on the way from the Rose Garden Square to the Police Headquarters gave him a clearer understanding of the plans of the aliens.
Not long after he came out of the Rose Garden Plaza, he saw a few people who had been arguing because of a car rear-end collision, and the purple-black part quietly appeared in the red light representing anger, and slowly grew larger through the push and shove that gradually escalated into an argument.
Later, when the roadside was supposed to be a couple, when they accused each other of cheating with jealousy and the shameless seduction of the other, the same purple and black parts appeared together with their harsh words.
There is also a fat man on the side of the street, who from time to time looks at his fat belly and the food advertisements on the glass walls of the shops inside. His face was entangled in struggle, and the moment he made up his mind to start entering, some purple-black parts also appeared in his emotional reaction at the same time.
This is not a single appearance, there are many more examples, such as the urban white-collar workers who ignore the homeless man with an indifferent expression, the tailed pervert who follows the beautiful woman, and the thief who looks at other people's wallets, all of which also appear in his perception of those extremely dazzling purple and black parts, and increase with the generation of some negative emotions.
Chen Xi had a vague feeling that these kinds of phenomena seemed to be able to corroborate each other with what the alien who blew himself up. Greed, gluttony, jealousy, anger, and more.
Except for those that are different from the normal encroachment of aliens. and the phenomenon of inexplicable growth, what he saw and heard along the way made Chen Xi understand what the layout of hell was doing so far.
All the things that were in the past were a way to confuse them, and these outliers didn't think of the normal way of playing the game by going around some bend to make a test, understand the enemy's situation, and then launch a further attack. It's a simple move. As soon as he strikes, he intends to destroy all the resistance power.
"There is no need to doubt their intentions at all. The many phenomena here point to the striking fact that they are not just about the location of the festival, but about the whole city. It's especially to be launched together, so that we don't have time to organize enough resistance! ”
Judging from this form of large-scale mutation, what is revealed is no longer a conspiracy that can be dealt with by just one city and one place, but is completely the level of hell's official counterattack on the Anthropocene realm!
In order to prove that he was not thinking nonsense, Chen Xi also deliberately spared some long distances and went to more areas to check this abnormal state.
As a result, there is no idea of confronting it head-on.
As he had speculated about the worst-case scenario, the other side had already completed the overall layout, and almost every area had this phenomenon, the difference was only in the number of them.
"Unless it is the first to wash the ground with weapons of mass destruction and wipe out the population of the entire city, otherwise, with this level of explosion, it is simply an inexplicable existence!"
Thinking about how many outliers Fieldland's population of more than one million could produce at this time, Chen Xi felt a burst of despair.
These are not comparable to the zombie sea with a combat power of 5, and the aliens with all kinds of strange abilities are definitely of a high grade for ordinary people, and even the demonized creatures that are only infected and mutated by the dark aura they produce can wantonly abuse those police* and urban management with guns and anti-riot equipment, if the body comes, I am afraid that only the army with heavy weapons can be dealt with. Not to mention the ugly and shocking appearance of the alien, I am afraid that as soon as it appears in front of the world, it will cause a serious panic in the world.
Obviously, these guys from hell directly intend to push away all of Fieldland's resistance through the brainless riot stream, and then move towards the goal of liberating the whole world.
And Chen Xi, who used to be an expert in interstellar and Warcraft games, knows very well the key to this kind of violent troop flow tactics, that is, the accurate grasp of time, before the number of troops that burst out reaches the critical point where they can occupy an advantage, this model without the support of high-end forces is undoubtedly very fragile, and it is difficult to have enough self-preservation to deal with strangulation, but after that, they are irresistible.
If there are more ants, they can drown elephants, and in the face of hundreds of thousands of monsters surging like a tide, it is simply not enough to rely on this part of Fieldland's strength.
"This can only be supported by more power, but unfortunately, with my remaining 56 camp points, even if I tell the news to Gu Bernard and them, I am afraid I will not fully believe it, let alone take a huge risk to gamble on the population of a city, but it will expose my biggest hole card Overall, there is nothing we can do to prevent this process from happening."
With this realization, after Chen Xi arrived at the police headquarters, he did not refuse Gu Bernard's arrangement at all. Join the other witchers and evolutionaries who have arrived and enter the city's sewers to purge the aliens who have surged out of Hell's Gate.
He also needs time, and if he wants to have the ability to escape before the crisis erupts, he must get enough evolution points before the city's mutation reaches the critical point of that military superiority.
Only in this way will he be able to face countless aliens with peace of mind in the near future.
……
One enters the sewer. There was a stench mixed with countless smells, but only a few people frowned.
The experience of the first two days has already given the vast majority of people here a wealth of experience and can adapt to the terrible environment here.
However, this does not include Chen Xi and the group of demon hunters he brought.
"When did this bastard put on the mask, and most importantly, for what we didn't have!"
Schneider had only taken a few steps before he covered his nose and couldn't help retching on the ground. As a noble four-star witcher, he had never stayed in the best hotels and eaten the best chefs' food, and he had never been to such a dirty, disgusting environment as the sewers. If you know that the passage of the [God Purifying and Seeking Demons] is what it means. He's definitely not coming.
Of course, the most unbearable factor for him was Chen Xi, who was left behind.
The bastard's face was already in a gas mask at some point, and he was swaying through the passage unaffected, the exact opposite of their shrinking state. And just think of this guy's under-flattened look. He really wanted to do something to relieve his hatred.
"It just so happens that this place is more private. Later, it is estimated that they will be cleaned up separately by squad. With a little care, I should be able to do something."
But before Schneider could finish his calculations, a sudden break interrupted his train of thought.
"Watch out for the ground!"
The familiar voice, which was a little deformed, but would never admit it, made Schneider, who had a ghost in his heart, suddenly nervous. Then I felt like my feet were slipping. He sat unsteadily on the ground, making a close encounter with the filthy stuff that he hated so much.
"I've said be careful, there's a lot of moss here, it's quite slippery, and it's best not to think about things when you walk."
The tired voice that came made Schneider hate it. But he crossed his legs and upper body, and met the condescending gaze, but it seemed to mean something, so that Schneider couldn't help but feel a spine purlin, instantly forgot what he just thought of, and didn't care about the dirty things on his buttocks, and after getting up, he only responded woodenly on his mouth: "Well, Brother Chen, I know what I said, I will be careful next time." ”
Schneider had a feeling that Chen Xi had discovered his plan. And thinking of Chen Xi's terrifying methods, he felt that he had better not act rashly, after all, it was only more than ten days of hard life, and patience passed.
In fact, the state of affairs here does not allow Schneider to think about his own plans anymore.
Not long after they went deep into the sewers, they heard all kinds of panicked exclamations and screams coming from all directions, echoing everywhere in the complex passage, making it impossible to distinguish the specific location.
And the homeless and homeless people that can usually be seen everywhere here, at this time, there is not a single one, and only some black shadows can be faintly seen from the end of the passage, as if they are running wildly to avoid something.
The strange situation made them a little overwhelmed by the previous experience.
Evolutionaries must be thinking about killing aliens quickly, while witchers mostly want to avoid frontal battles and save people.
"Let's split up here, there is the effect of [God Purifying Demons], although they can't get out, but those who live inside will suffer, how many can we save."
It was the other trio who said this—Stanley, the evolutionary who first inspired the insignia of the Knights of St. John, and under his righteous and awe-inspiring content, he actually wanted to get more rewards from the eyes of the people who were in the way of other evolutionaries.
As the other person in the highest position in the team, Chen Xi naturally had no opinion on this. Sharing it with others, especially since there are many of them who belong to evolutionaries with an abnormal desire for rewards, is undoubtedly unpleasant.
He probably chose a direction that he had explored in detail in the previous two days, and then took Schneider and the others to chase those dark shadows away.
The road did not chase far, and after a few forks, Chen Xi, Schneider and others coincidentally stopped at a corner.
"Is this the kind of method, do you think I'm one of those rookies who can scatter us with just a few shadows?"
Looking at the green underground water in front of him and the dim light and shadow reflected off the mossy wall opposite, Schneider, who was walking in the forefront, said with a sneer. As he spoke, he had already cast his spells on some unknown enemy.
[Lanbi Cage].
Thomas's Liquid Hand.
Completely silent, but also completely instantaneous.
A piercing scream suddenly appeared from around the corner, as if he was going to escape, but it was useless at all, in the penetrating field of Chen Xi's eye of return, over the wall part of the corner, a pair of big green hands stretched out from the ditch closed up and down, grabbed many strange things on the ground that were suddenly trapped by the wind wall and pulled them back here.
It wasn't until they were out of the way of the wall that they revealed their true form.
It was a few pools of flesh that had grown out of the rolling flesh of many human upper body structures, and those shadows were obviously made by them on purpose.
"It turned out to be the Shadow Cracker!"
Many of the demon hunters in the team said suddenly, and then they all looked at Chen Xi in surprise.
To be honest, Schneider was also surprised by Chen Xi's previous performance, the shadows that flickered around before ran separately when they entered the fork in the road, if the ordinary demon hunter team would probably be confused and make the wrong move of acting separately, and for some kind of passive sabotage, he had no intention of reminding him at all. But every time, as the leader, Chen Xi seemed to know what he was facing, and he did not hesitate to pursue only the place with the most shadows.
But before the Shadow Cracker Demon was pulled in front of them by magic, suddenly, Chen Xi, who was lagging behind, spoke up again: "Be careful of the ground. (To be continued......)
