52. Count as you count

"It seems a little embarrassing."

"Understandable. After all, no one is willing to take risks. ”

Zhao Manjun handed the number plate of tomorrow's game to Lu Fuyan

"Rather than sifting through the hundreds of contestants and finding those who might be ruining your plans, it's better to knock them all down with an indiscriminate AOE – as long as there are no qualifiers in Group C, they're done."

“... It's just a small contradiction in the election of the 'village chief', and it can get to such a point. ”

"Power has always been resistant to sharing, and those who wear crowns have always spared no expense to keep their position – even if it's just a village chief."

"Gotcha... We will discuss this kind of philosophical proposition another day, and first talk about how to solve the current troubles. ”

Lu Fuyan took the number plate...

The front of the sign is engraved with the words "C114", and the back is bare.

The end of the iron sheet, which is about half a finger long, has been tied with a slender metal chain in advance, and the structure is probably expected to be hung around the neck of the contestants to distinguish their identities.

… But not only is the design of this thing not humane, but the workmanship is not exquisite.

In addition to the crooked and skewed number etching that is difficult to read, I am even reluctant to make a rubber ring to wrap the sharp edge of the iron sheet!

Lu Fuyan tested it with his arm, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he had to leave a bloody mark on his skin.

"Tsk, what kind of poison gas is that? It doesn't react with metal, does it? ”

"It's hard to say.

However, considering that most of the poison gases have certain requirements for the use environment and delivery methods, it is impossible for remote relay stations like Toutuoling to get those categories that are difficult to preserve. ”

"You can just sign up."

"According to the preliminary contact, the carbon chloride gas that is going to be put into the site this time is probably the one that is going to be put into the site."

"Phosgene?"

"Almost."

Lu Fuyan pursed his lips, he had more or less heard of this antique-level biological and chemical weapon that had been widely used in the Franco-German battlefield during World War I.

This is a typical temporary agent. Injuries are caused by both inhalation and percutaneous absorption.

When used for air pollution, it is affected by wind, rain and temperature, and the overall effect is not stable.

Acute poisoning patients will have initial symptoms such as photophobia, tearing, cough, etc., and after the toxicity is intensified, it will also cause pulmonary edema and other respiratory diseases.

… For ordinary people, this is certainly a dangerous poison.

However, from a toxicological point of view, if this thing is used to deal with transcendents, especially those with physically strengthened abilities such as the "War Ghost" path, it will be difficult to achieve the desired results.

"Isn't Hisun a well-known pharmaceutical company? They can make a biological weapon like Gilla, so why not just use their own company's products at this time? ”

"Strictly speaking, Hisun Pharmaceutical is a black industry that has been severely cracked down on in the central area, and its headquarters is roughly hidden in the Rift Valley area. Therefore, although their heels in the periphery are deeper than self-help, the resources they can deploy are relatively limited. ”

Zhao Manjun understood Lu Fuyan's doubts, so he explained the reason to the latter unhurriedly.

"After the mass extinction, the infrastructure of the wasteland was already in shambles, and the transportation of supplies was a problem for many large survivor groups.

Biological agents like this are contraband that are heavily cracked down on in various settlements, so unless Hisun employees have premeditated it, they have to resort to the local black market, just like us. ”

"I see... So what are you going to do with this poisoning incident? ”

Lu made a stiff move.

"Give me the entire gas mask full of urotropine?"

"It's a solution, but it's too conspicuous."

"Comrade Zhao Manyun, can you not be a riddler, if you have something to say!"

"Don't worry, I think I can take advantage of this opportunity..."

After a night, the Toutuoling Relay Station finally ushered in the Citizens' Duel Tournament on the first weekend of July.

Due to the special geographical conditions, the local climate is often more complex than that of the Northern Hemisphere at the same latitude - the huge heat released from the Great Rift Valley disrupted the original atmospheric circulation balance, causing the pressure in the Central Plains to rise, followed by a series of regional climate shocks.

Therefore, the temperature in the Toutuoling area is obviously high and the precipitation is low, and it is just summer, and the surface temperature has exceeded 40 °C.

Under such a terrifying heat, if the venue of the play-in tournament is set in an open-air area, it will inevitably affect the viewing experience of citizens and undermine the principle of "fairness and justice" of the competition itself.

As a result, the four play-in tournaments held today were scattered in the dungeons in the four directions of the inner city, southeast, northwest, and north.

Although the facilities that were originally used to hold slaves were simply repaired and cleaned before the contestants entered, the remaining blood and filth did not easily dissipate.

Fortunately, most of the contestants involved in this brutal performance have slave backgrounds, and when paired with the dark dungeons, they can be considered "at home" to some extent...

It's just that such a home advantage obviously has nothing to do with Lu Fuyan.

After being arrested, he has been cultivated as a male publicist, even when he is at his most depressed, he has never lived in such a bad environment for a long time.

If it hadn't been for NKUD to help him curb his negative emotions, I'm afraid that someone Lu would have been delirious with these odors...

"No wonder everybody is counting on poisoning to solve the problem... In this kind of underground environment with no air circulation, as long as the poisonous gas released is not rainbow-colored, probably no one will pay attention to it at all. ”

Lu muttered a few words in a low voice, endured his physical discomfort, and waited for the start of the game in this closed field with the ill-intentioned contestants of Bailai.

Due to the lack of light, it was difficult for him to distinguish which of them were teammates arranged by Madame Fengdie, and which ones were the opponents of Zhou Congrong and others who were bribed.

Thankfully, if everything goes according to the plan set last night, it's not a big deal.

The old land deliberately cowered in the corner of the dungeon, waiting for the signal for the game to start.

It was at this time that the First Republic also issued warning signs.

[Status Detection: Non-War State]

[Enemy Spy is performing sabotage: 1.28%]

[Country Stability -5%]

[Reserve manpower -5%]

-1% Construction Speed

Here it comes.

As the smell of rotten hay spread through the dungeon, NKUD immediately began to work according to the pre-established defense strategy.

Although the poison gas directly targeted the physiological structure took effect more quickly than the previous psychic interference, it was much easier for intelligence organizations to deal with.

Under Beria's command, the rioters who had invaded the First Republic were arrested almost as soon as they entered the country.

As a result, the progress of the sabotage operation has been stagnant for a long time below 2%, fluctuating repeatedly.

And after determining that the phosgene thrown into the dungeon could not cause substantial damage to himself, Lu did not make a big noise and expose the opponent's conspiracy and calculation.

He continued to lie dormant in the corner of the dungeon until the hinges spun and rattled, and the stone slab above the contestant's head finally looked like a heavy door, slowly pulled up by four arm-thick iron cables.

The dazzling sunlight dispelled the darkness in an instant, and the noisy shouts of the audience, accompanied by the loudspeaker shouting of the host, instantly ignited the malice of the entire dungeon!

"Ladies! Gentlemen! Exciting times have finally arrived! ”

"Let's wait and see who qualifies as the duel champion who wins everything!!"
