Chapter 51: Mutation

"What's wrong? Are you afraid of rats? Bourbon deliberately asked, "Don't like them?" You're really hurt so much...... Try to adapt.

They're all over the place...... It's nothing, and there may be a benefit: you won't be hungry and have nothing to eat. ”

He blinked as Su Mengfan began to feel sick to his stomach and continued to add,

"But seriously," Bourbon said seriously, "where there are no rats, it's more frightening."

If there are no rats in one place, there is really big trouble. If there are no people, it is even more worrying.

But if the rats are running around, then everything is fine in the place, as usual, understand? ”

There are people here, and Su Mengfan definitely doesn't want to be hurt here with this guy.

So, he nodded and didn't say a word.

There aren't that many rats here, they run away when they hit the flashlight's beam, and you can barely see them.

But there were still some rats that managed to get under their feet, and Su Mengfan stepped on something soft and slippery, and then heard a sharp scream.

Su Mengfan didn't stand firm, he was wearing a piece of equipment, and he almost fell to the ground......

"Don't worry, kid, don't be afraid." Bourbon encouraged him.

"There's something worse than that. In this shit-like tunnel, there are two corridors occupied by them.

You have to walk on the railroad tracks, or you'll have to step on them as you go. Bourbon hummed easily.

Su Mengfan frowned, he remained silent, but his fists were clenched.

If he could punch Bourbon's grinning face at this time, he would not hesitate!

Suddenly, there was a long-lost noise in the distance, and Su Mengfan quickly forgot about beating Bourbon, holding his weapon tightly with both hands, and looked at Bourbon with a question mark on his face.

"Don't be nervous! Everything was fine. We're about to get to {Qingtang Station}. Bourbon reassured him with these words, and pretended to pat him on the shoulder with ease.

Although Bourbon had warned Su Mengfan before, {Qingtang Station} did not have guardrails.

But it was unusual to see it – there was no faint light of fire marking the border line before entering a metro station in advance, and there were no barricades along the way.

When they reached the exit of the tunnel, the noise was boiling, and Su Mengfan saw a scorching light.

They went up the iron-cast staircase from the left, and walked past the platform.

Bourbon's boots clicked on the iron staircase, and after a few steps, the tunnel turned to the left, and when I turned around, it suddenly became clear that they were already in the subway station.

Since this is the sphere of influence of the Red Line, they are different from the Red Army that came out of the hands of the Fourth Reich before. It's the red line forces in the subway station.

It manages 16 stations and is known to control at least two satellite stations, the Armory and the New Grand Theatre.

Line 1 is the main artery of the red line, and most of its stations are located on this line, and they are all connected to this line

According to Hunter, there are already people in the New Grand Theater on the Red Line who have successfully trained {Lurkers}. It's like a circus show.

The Red Line is one of the most powerful factions in the Moscow Metro, alongside the likes of Hanza.

with a much smaller, but militarily more advanced, right-wing government. Right – known as the "Fourth Reich" – was in a state of permanent conflict.

It is the Metro that has the largest population (estimated at 15,000), has an unrivaled ability to recruit on a large scale, is second only to the Hanseatic League in terms of the number of stations and the length of the tracks, and Red Line is one of the most feared factions in the post-apocalyptic world.

But since most of the front-line soldiers of the Red Army were recruits who had just returned from the station, they were poorly trained and poorly equipped.

Usually only equipped with a naughty bag card. A gun, a magazine (which was also their payment for conscription) and a cloth uniform without protection.

This was due to the fact that these soldiers were used as cannon fodder by their commanders, or as a wall of men to protect artillery emplacements during major battles with the Fourth Reich, and were often easily slaughtered by the better Fourth Reich soldiers.

Unlike the Hanseatic Alliance, which can do business, this place is very xenophobic, so Su Mengfan and Pang Bo simply rested and continued to set off for {Sukharev Station}.

"Basically, I can't pack a ticket for this. I've never been like this, so I don't know what I'm doing or if we're going to be in trouble.

We are crossing the river by feeling the stones, of course, even if we encounter something...... Well, if I start crying or become deaf, then it's all easy to say.

I've heard that everyone has their own unique way of going crazy.

None of our boys have yet made it back to {Peace Avenue Station}. I think it's because they're not promising, and we might have inadvertently met them today.

So, you're ready, because you're still tender after all, and if I start to get angry, I'm going to shut you up, and that's the problem, you see?

I don't know what to do, okay...... Good. After some hesitation, Bourbon finally made up his mind.

"Kid, I guess you're not going to shoot the guy who helped you look in the back. I'll give you my gun before we cross this hallway, you have to be careful," he warned.

looked at Su Mengfan's eyes firmly, "Don't be funny, I don't have much sense of humor." ”

He shook off the debris from his rucksack and carefully pulled out a machine gun wrapped in a plastic bag.

This is also a Kalashnikov punch . Sharp guns, but shorter, like the weapons in the hands of Red Line Border Patrol officers.

Unlike the machine gun held by Su Mengfan that had a long socket, this machine gun had a thick end and was equipped with hinges and a short socket.

Bourbon took off the magazine and put it back in the rucksack, and the rags were loaded in.

"Take this!" He gave the machine gun to Su Mengfan.

"Don't lose it. It may come in handy when the time comes. Although the tunnel seems to be silent......" Bourbon jumped onto the track without saying this.

"Okay, let's go. The earlier you start, the sooner you arrive. ”

After that, they walked quietly for a long time, but the feeling of silence became more and more oppressive, and Su Mengfan finally couldn't stand it anymore.

"Listen, Bourbon." He spoke, trying to dispel the illusion, "Did someone really attack a caravan here not long ago?" ”

Bourbon didn't answer right away, and Su Mengfan thought that he might not have heard the question he asked, and was about to ask again.

Bourbon spoke: "I've heard similar stories. But I wasn't there at the time, so I can't give you a definite answer. ”

His voice sounded muffled, and Su Mengfan had a hard time catching them, and he could barely distinguish the Bourbon words he heard from his own churning thoughts.

He realized that the place seemed to be hard to hear.

"What? No one has ever seen it? How is this possible? There is a subway station at the end of every tunnel, where did they go? He continued.

But not because I'm particularly interested in the answers, but just to hear my own voice.

A few minutes passed, and Bourbon finally spoke, but this time, Su Mengfan didn't want to steal the white, because the words he had just said had an echo and a whirlwind in his mind, and he was busy listening.

"They say, somewhere here, there's a kind of black hole that covers the whole tunnel, but you can't see it with the naked eye.

Well, how is it possible for you to see anything in such darkness? Bourbon said again, but there was an unnatural anger in his voice.

It took Su Mengfan a while to remember what they had just been talking about, and he tried to grasp all the feelings in distress.

Another question is raised at this point just because he wants to continue the conversation. It seemed clumsy and not easy, but it was true that it kept them from falling silent.

"Is it always so dark here?" Su Mengfan asked. At the same time, he was frightened by his own faint voice, as if his ears were blocked by something.

"Black? Yes, all the time. It's black everywhere.

It comes to the great world of darkness, it covers the whole world, and it will ...... Reign in for eternity. "Bourbon's remarks are strange.

What do you mean by that? Is that the book? Or what? ”

Su Mengfan said and thought of the cardboard that appeared in his hand before, and noticed that he had to work harder and harder to hear the sound he made.

He also noticed that Bourbon's expressive ability was also changing in shocking ways, but Su Mengfan didn't have enough strength to be surprised by these changes.

"A book...... Fear of the truth, hidden in the ancient ...... In the collection of books, the characters inside are embossed on paper in gold...... Slate Black ...... Never decay. ”

Bourbon spoke stiffly and responsibly, and Su Mengfan was confused by such an ideaβ€”this person spoke differently at this time than before.

"Beautiful!" Su Mengfan almost shouted. "Where did it come from?"

"Something beautiful...... Will be knocked down and crushed...... The prophets will do everything in their power to announce their prophecy...... Someday...... Future...... Will...... Worse than them...... I'm worried about getting dark...... What they saw...... Will ......," Bourbon said quietly and intermittently.

Suddenly, he stopped, his head turned sharply to the left, and Su Mengfan could hear the sound of his spine breaking.

He turned his head and looked straight into Su Mengfan's eyes.

Su Mengfan began to step back, fumbling for his weapon just in case.

Bourbon looked at him with his eyes wide open, his face very calm and natural. Every piece of flesh was slack, and there was even a contemptuous smile on the corner of his lips.

"I'm dead." Bourbon said, "There's no more like me." ”

With that, he fell straight to the ground like a log.
