Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Skull of the Chrysanthemum Beast

"By the way, the place we went to today was opened by an old friend of mine, and this is the place to cook." Liu Fuman gave a thumbs up.

"Okay, can we talk about something other than food?"

Campbellton interrupted Liu.

"Of course, let's talk about mechas, that's what we're doing anyway."

In addition to chatting and eating, Liu Zhiman also continued to show off his achievements to everyone, as the only remaining domestic mecha in Huaxia "Storm Crimson" pilot, the three brothers can be said to be like a fish in water in the Hong Kong base, and the number of monsters killed by Storm Crimson has reached the temperament, ranking second in the overall mecha ranking.

In terms of configuration alone, "Storm Crimson" itself belongs to the fourth-generation mecha, second only to the fifth-generation mecha "Eureka Raider", and is more advanced than the protagonist's American imperialist mecha "Dangerous Wanderer", and is known as the mecha with the strongest fighting ability. It's just that because of the different combat methods, Storm Crimson is in some ways more vulnerable to defense than other mechs.

Among the several mecha in the Hong Kong base, only the three Liu brothers in Huaxia expressed their acceptance of Beckett, while the Russian couple was a little cold, and Chuck needless to say, he was simply Beckett's sworn enemy.

Especially after today's accident, the attitude of the people in the entire base towards Beckett has changed dramatically, and many people who originally maintained an ordinary attitude have also developed prejudices against Beckett.

Of course, most of the candidates in this batch expressed their understanding of Beckett and Asako, after all, Thomas was also inaccurate when he first synaesthesia. It's just that because of the different operating systems of the mechas, the director Beckett can't do whatever he wants.

Maybe give Beckett another chance to choose, and Beckett will reinstall the operating system for the dangerous wanderers?

The operating system of the mecha is not a broken computer at home. Buy a pirated disc or copy a backup directly from the Internet to brush the system, even if the accident is brushed, it is just a matter of re-brushing a few times, but the mecha is not such a simple thing, the cost of 60 billion US dollars of huge mecha, the system directly manages every part and part of the mecha, it can be said that the system is developed at the same time in the process of mecha manufacturing, and has a very high degree of matching.

In the words of a cow break. The system and the mecha itself also have the problem of zĂ i fit, if the fit is too low, the mecha will inevitably have problems. And once there is a problem with the mecha, the economic loss is not the most important, if there is a monster attacking at this moment, then everyone can only be stupid. Forced.

In addition, because the mecha of each country are manufactured independently. Except for Huaxia, which has a production model, the rest are different. Therefore, the operating systems also have their own differences, even after the mecha is damaged and repaired, replacing and upgrading the new system requires a series of complex and rigorous tests to ensure that the mecha can drive normally.

The Rover now uses the "Blue Starfire 4.1" version of the system, while Storm Crimson is a domestically produced "Sanyang" horizon gateway, and the operating systems of the two hemispheres, one east and one west, are very different, such as Storm Crimson is a typical speed-type mecha. The anti-beating aspect is naturally weaker, just in terms of anti-beating. The Russian mecha is temporarily in first place.

Originally, "Chernoalpha" and "Storm Crimson" belonged to the fourth generation of mechas, but because of the plot needs, they were changed to the first generation of mechas, full of Russian military style, rough and durable, but it is also the most bizarre, the cockpit is hidden in the chest, so there is no escape pod setting, once caught by the monster, it can only be with the other party to the end, so this Russian mecha is the most popular mecha outside the movie.

With the gags of the second Liu Zhiman and Campbellton, the atmosphere in the car was much better, and the car then entered the city of Hong Kong, turned left and right in the bustling streets, and finally drove into a somewhat dilapidated neighborhood.

"Here?"

Campbellton had obviously never been here, and looked out of the car unobtrusively, where a huge skull of a chrysanthemum beast had been placed in the distance, which looked as if it had been transformed into a temple, and the rare faint sound of chanting could be heard.

"This is a square corner, which was attacked by monsters a few years ago, and then rebuilt into a free trade zone."

Liu Zhiman looked at the skull of the chrysanthemum beast in the distance: "That skull belongs to the "Avenger", you should have heard of him, a second-level monster, he was the one who attacked Hong Kong in 2016, and its skull was recognized as harmless by the PPDC, so it slowly became a temple where cults gathered. ”

"Cults? Does the government care? Zhang Yang looked at the huge skull and asked.

"Although it is a cult, this sect preaches that the monster is sent by the gods of heaven who are dissatisfied with the behavior of human beings, and there is no other excessive behavior, and this sect is not large, so the Hong Kong government turned a blind eye and let him go. However, if they dare to act excessively, they will definitely be the first to be destroyed. ”

And after Zhang Yang saw the skull of this monster, he immediately remembered why he felt a little familiar here.

Square street corner? Monster skulls? Isn't this the same black market trader who opened the organs of the chrysanthemum beast, where Hannibal Zhou's lair is located? And calculate the time, Newton. Gusler must have also been instructed by Panthcoster to come here to find Hannibal Zhou.

In that case, wouldn't the monster be landing tonight?

Zhang Yang, who deduced a dangerous result, immediately realized that it was not a wise choice for his group of people to wander here now, and the domineering "tail standing mouse" (the one that can fly) in the movie went directly to the corner of the square street to find Newton. Ge Sile even fought with the wanderers here, and almost didn't tear down all the surrounding houses, if his group stayed here, they might get into some other trouble.

However, Zhang Yang then realized that Hannibal Zhou was still a strange existence to other people, and Panthcoster only sued two doctors in the movie, so Zhang Yang could only keep his mouth shut for the time being, if the monster really landed, then they should get the summoning order of the PPDC first, but they didn't have to worry too much, so he was relieved.

Looking around, most of the buildings on both sides of the road are not neat, arranged horizontally and vertically, and various signboards with oriental characteristics are densely packed with windows along the street, and the signs of "Paul Electric" and "XX Happy City" are flashing neon lights, which looks like a slum located on the outskirts of the city.

Because the "Avengers" at the time of death, the blood polluted the surrounding area, so the surrounding houses, buildings were basically bulldozed by monsters, basically deserted, after a period of reconstruction, all kinds of buildings were built here, because there is no unified management, so it looks messy, similar to the illegal buildings built indiscriminately, dense wires and wires are entangled with various lines, like spider webs all over the entire square street corner.

The management of the free trade bazaar is very chaotic, basically independent of each other, nominally under the jurisdiction of the Hong Kong government, but in fact, the people who are in charge here are basically various forces, and the Kaiju beast organ trade led by Hannibal Zhou is also an important part of this black market.

At this time, there were a lot of people, so the car was very slow, when they were publicized through the flow of people, the car stopped in front of a restaurant called "Lingnan Restaurant", and it looked like some dilapidated mahogany doors and windows, Liu Zhiman squeezed in with a hula dozen people, and the originally small store was suddenly crowded.

"Lao He, Lao He! I've brought someone to visit you! ”

"Yo, you're here to fight the autumn breeze again today, how many of you?"

A middle-aged man in a Tang costume walked out with steady steps, and at a glance he knew that it was a standard Chinese person, Liu Zhiman hooked up with the other party's shoulder and said a few words, and then beckoned everyone to a large room on the second floor, where there were three large round tables, which looked antique, and beckoned everyone to sit down.

Not long after, the young girl who watched the tea came over to serve tea to everyone, and then each flipped through the recipes, and the three Liu brothers each stood at a table to accompany them, most of them did not understand Chinese, so the three brothers could only order a few signature dishes.

This restaurant is a decades-old craft, and the three Liu brothers often come here to eat, so they are familiar to both sides, and Zhang Yang was looking through the menu when he saw a strange name of the dish.

"Aphrodisiac bone powder soup?"

Zhang Yang took a look at the introduction, it said that this store recently received a kind of beast bone powder with aphrodisiac effect, and directly took it with aphrodisiac effect, Zhang Yang guessed in his heart that this so-called aphrodisiac powder, eighty percent of it may be Hannibal Zhou's resold chrysanthemum beast bone powder.

Putting aside whether the effect of aphrodisiac is true or not, Zhang Yang has no interest in this boasted so-called "aphrodisiac elixir", thinking of the bone meal dug up from the ugly-looking monster, or mixed with other things, such as excrement, dead parasites, etc., Zhang Yang felt a chill.

The three Liu brothers didn't have a point, I don't know if they had been reminded by the boss or what, but Mason, a university teacher from the United Kingdom, has a huge interest in this aphrodisiac soup, as a teacher in the biology department, this product has always been curious about what the characteristics of this so-called aphrodisiac powder are.

Only Mason ordered an aphrodisiac soup from the three tables, ready to taste and study, and no one else was interested, and Zhang Yang was waiting for the food to be served, looking out from the window on the second floor, and he could just see the skull of the chrysanthemum beast not far away, the huge skull was like a three-story villa, especially the position of the eye socket, which became two huge hollows, staring at people indifferently.
