Chapter 52: A World of Extreme Need

The passage is supposed to be part of the city's underground sewerage system, and it is unusually dark and smelly.

Chen Mo picked up his weapon and searched around carefully, but he didn't see anything. However, I could hear a strange rustling sound in the darkness in the distance!

'Boom. Chen Mo turned on the tactical flashlight and shone it in the direction where the sound came from, and what he saw was actually a large group of rats surging like waves!

Rats in the modern world are no longer common, and Chen Mo has seen them more often on TV screens. Even the rats that appear on the TV screen are only a few at most, and they even look a little interesting. In the modern world, there are even many people who raise rats as pets.

But what appeared in front of Chen Mo at this time was a huge swarm of rats composed of hundreds or even more rats, one by one, surging along the narrow passage like a huge black wave!

These rats appear to be significantly larger than normal rats, and each of them has fat heads and ears that look very fat. Chen Mo could even see that the eyes of these rats were red.

"Run! it's a swarm of rats!" Old Jack screamed and ran towards the passage on the other side, and several other natives began to run away with panicked expressions.

After careful observation, Chen Mo didn't see that they were deliberately designing themselves, and after thinking about it, he took out the whole box of arms boxes from the space watch!

These swarms move fast, and if they escape, they will be caught up in a hurry. The terrain here is very complex and there is nothing to hide. Escaping is at best a temporary respite, but when the rats catch up, the situation can only get worse.

Lift the arms box, and it's filled with rows and rows of grenades!

Weapons and ammunition in the survival world are not expensive at all, such as this defensive grenade, which is a combination of two survival points, is definitely a good thing at a good price.

It's just that Chen Mo is not very happy. After all, the survival world has set the price of these modern technological weapons so low, definitely not so that challengers can easily use weapons to survive the mission world again and again. Most likely, these things will only be useful to the challengers in the early stages. In the later stage, there will inevitably be something more terrifying and powerful.

At this moment, Chen Mo thought that if he passed the golden main quest, the quest world he experienced would inevitably be completely different. Once there, maybe guns or something will be useless.

But now is obviously not the time to think about this, Chen Mo directly grabbed the two grenades and flicked off the safety pin, and struggled to move the grenades towards the rats that were approaching in the distance.

'Boom~~~' The environment inside the sewer is very narrow, so the loud sound produced by the grenade explosion is even more powerful. Even if Chen Mo was still far away, the sound of the explosion seemed to echo in his ears. Powerful sound waves swept through the sewers as if they were substance!

The power of a grenade explosion is very powerful, especially with this military weapon. The powerful blast spilled shatters from the surrounding concrete walls, and the sewers seemed to shake.

And the real strength of this defensive grenade lies not in its powerful air waves and shock waves, but in the hundreds of tiny fragments produced after the explosion!

With the force of the explosion, dense fragments swept all around. The concrete walls weren't a big deal, but the fat rats were out of luck. Although these rats have become larger due to mutation, they have not changed in essence, they are still just mice.

The rain of bullets emptied all the creatures around them, and many rats were swept into sieves by shrapnel!

The number of rats is so large that it is impossible to eliminate them with just two grenades. Chen Mo didn't hesitate at all, and directly took out the grenade in the arsenal box in front of him like a game machine playing basketball.

Dense explosions continued, and countless shrapnel flew everywhere. Although the number of rats is large, it is impossible to compare them with the shrapnel of grenades. Large swarms of rats were drowned in the air generated by the grenade explosion, leaving only dead rats all over the floor.

Some of the vigorous rats were not dead for a while, and they were struggling and screaming in the sewers, and the sound sounded very permeating.

The best weapon to deal with this kind of rat that relies on numbers to win is naturally a flamethrower. It's just that Chen Mo didn't buy this kind of thing. Compared to firearms, covering grenades are equally powerful.

When Chen Mo threw out a whole box of grenades, the swarm of hundreds of rats finally began to retreat. Most of the rats died from the horrific grenade attack, and only a few of the rats in the back squeaked and fled backwards.

The rats were not stupid at all, and after realizing that it was not possible to enjoy the delicious food, they did not make any brainless pig spurs, but chose to flee. Maybe it's not the first time this has happened to them.

After the rats retreated, Chen Mo glanced at the fork not far away, and directly put the military firebox into the space watch, "Come out." ”

The figure flickered, and Old Jack and the others, who had fled before, walked over hesitantly.

"That's how you work?" Chen Mo squinted his eyes at Old Jack and the others, and mocked without being salty or light, "When it comes to things, I run first, and I now very much suspect that hiring you was a wrong decision." ”

"Misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding. Old Jack didn't seem to know what shame meant, and explained with a sneer, "We didn't expect to encounter such a large swarm of rats." In the past, a rat colony of this size could even attack and wipe out a small settlement. If we encounter a rat swarm of this size, we must have run away first. ”

"Where did you get so much ammunition?" Little Jack looked around Chen Mo with an envious expression, searching for something, "I'm afraid that only the committee will have so many arms." It's too wasteful to use against these rats. ”

As for Bob and the others, they had already walked towards the dead rats at this time, their faces were full of excitement, and they were rummaging through the dead rats with daggers in their hands to find the rats whose bodies were still intact.

Chen Mo even saw Bob pick up a mouse from the ground that was not yet dead, and in the midst of a squeaky scream, he directly swung the knife and began to peel the skin!

"It's a shame. Old Jack had a regretful expression on his face, "So many grenades can be exchanged for a lot of good things." Even the most beautiful technician in the settlement, a grenade is enough to play casually for a whole day! All these rat meat add up, and it is estimated that it will not be able to exchange the money for a few grenades, which is too wasteful. ”

Chen Mo rolled his eyes, speechless at these people, and at the same time had a general understanding of the state of the survivors of this world. Everything is based on the main purpose of living, and there is definitely no courtesy, righteousness, honesty or anything. If he didn't have strong strength, these people might stab themselves in the back.

Everything is about profit, and lack of material is a sure thing, and these people even eat rat meat for food. Of course, these rats will also attack humans and enjoy food. Arms are very powerful in this world, even harder than gold in the modern world.

Chen Mo checked the pollution index, but fortunately, the sewer was already within the normal range. After Chen Mo took off his three-defense suit, he took out a cigarette and lit it, leaning against the wall of the sewer and watching Old Jack happily dispose of the rat meat.

Those are all contaminated rats, and these people actually eat this kind of thing. It seems that the scarcity of materials in this world is far worse than imagined.

'Hiss~~~' Little Jack bowed down and stood beside Chen Mo, squinting his eyes and inhaling the second-hand smoke that Chen Mo spit out. Looking at his expression of intoxication and enjoyment, people who don't know may have a person who is in high medicine.

Not only Little Jack, but also Old Jack and others, who were happily handling rat meat before, also smelled the fragrance, and they all ran over and gathered around Chen Mo, desperately inhaling second-hand smoke.

In the modern world, smoking in public is even scolded. But here, it's like giving out benefits.

Chen Mo shook his head, took out a cigarette again, handed it to Little Jack on the side, and helped him light the cigarette casually.

'Cough~cough~' Little Jack, who was busy and took a hard sip, was directly choked until his face was flushed, and he patted his chest desperately. And he didn't care about his life or death at all, he just grabbed the cigarette and smoked it hard.

"You haven't smoked?" Chen Mo looked at Little Jack who had just recovered his breath with some surprise, but looked at the cigarette in his hand with a greedy face. Seeing that he was so fascinated by second-hand smoke before, Chen Mo thought he was an old smoking gun, but he didn't expect it to be a chick.

"I've smelled other people's cigarettes a few times. Little Jack watched intently as the cigarette swirled around in the hands of several people, and then suddenly stepped forward and snatched the last cigarette butt from Bob's hand, and the filter that he smoked directly burned up.

"What a heavenly treat. Old Jack sat on the ground and looked up, his face full of intoxication, and he looked like I was very happy. It almost made Chen Mo wonder if the cigarettes he bought from the living world had any special effects.

"It's been more than twenty years. Bob on the side also had an intoxicated expression, "I still remember the feeling of going to heaven after I found a cigarette in a supermarket more than 20 years ago and smoked one." I didn't expect to smoke again in my life. ”

"Just this cigarette is enough to live with Lilith for a week!" Old Jack's words made Chen Mo puzzled, and turned his head to look at Little Jack, who was still smoking a cigarette, and asked, "Who is Lilith?"

"The most beautiful technician in the twenty-first district. Little Jack's attention was all on the butt of the cigarette, "and the most expensive!"

Chen Mo nodded slowly, he finally fully understood why the world wanted to restrict the things brought out by the challengers from not being able to directly change the nuclear bottle cap.

If this is not restricted, Chen Mo will even throw a cigarette and sell some arms to be able to get together 10,000 nuclear bottle caps, and the task given by the world will have no meaning!
