Chapter 115: The Docks Are Destroyed
Converted speedboats enter the nearest marina town to the rainforest, and in a few hours it will be dinner time. The two planned to resupply in the town, rest for the night, and then continue their journey tomorrow. Speaking of which, the teams that set off from this town did not end well, and the two were the luckiest among them, but they were a little frightened.
In the town, there is a department of Covestro and a local office. Before the speedboat entered the small dock of the office, it saw the big ship where Doren was in the distance. After some discussion, the two decided not to meet him, and chose to stay in a remote hotel in the corner of the town's dock.
Double room with two single beds, the sheets have been rinsed many times, looking clean but old inside. After putting down the salute, he relaxed on the bed, and suddenly the old wooden boat creaked.
Even this is much better than sleeping on a ship. When the boat is docked, it will continue to shake along the water's edge, and unless you are tired and anxious, you won't be able to sleep at all. If you have seasickness, it will be a complete nightmare.
Covestro relaxed for a moment, got up and turned on the old TV facing the bed, the small screen shell covered with weathered black and yellow dirt. He doesn't need to use the remote control to adjust the channel, but all the channels that involve a little news are scrambling to report the news about him.
Dereliction of duty, corpse vegetarian meals, and other similar hats, all buckled on his head. Some small mistakes in the past have also been dug up and amplified, and those things that are difficult to say are all misinterpreted as his mistakes.
The hard work he has put in for many years has been criticized for being worthless. It's as if he's just a fool who doesn't know how to move, and who has spent most of his life just doing the wrong thing. Outsiders don't want to think about it, if he is really incapable, how can he do the position he chooses!
Of course, people make mistakes, and this is inevitable. Naturally, Cosi has not done anything wrong, but there are not so many, and he thinks that he can barely be regarded as a clean official.
"Dorun, you're really ruthless!"
Cosith's eyes were full of anger, and according to this posture, it was impossible to resign and retire early. It is estimated that Doren will only wait for him to come out of the rainforest with the fleet, and directly beat him to death and put him in prison under the mouth of the crowd.
The plane crash of the expedition, the rescue team and the fleet, all the faults were pinned on him. Let's not forget that in the archives, Coss was the real commander of the fleet, although he fished along the way.
And the name of Doron's deputy appears in the list of those left behind. He never went into the rainforest in the record, but worked as an acting minister in the department, and when Covestro entered, his title of acting minister could be removed.
The news about the python was kept under strict seals, and when it came out, it caused fearless panic. There are also poachers who have an eye for money and send them to their deaths, but the rich people like these items that can appreciate in value the most.
Yes, it's just a collection, all but two of the people who saw the python died, and they died too quickly to pass on much news. Outside insiders only thought that it was a much larger python, although it was exaggerated, it was within the scope of the solution.
The top is already preparing to send more people and carry more weapons and equipment. It won't be long before you can enter the rainforest and catch the harmful python in one fell swoop. And some people have already booked this living rare collection through the exchange of interests.
"What to do? I can be alone, but it's hard for you! Kendrick knew that Coth was a family man, and even if he wanted to run, he had to think about his partner and offspring.
Coth's immediate elders have all passed away a long time ago, and those years were the rising period of his old friend's career, because he was busy with work, he couldn't see him at the last time, so he could only attend the funeral hastily and continue to work.
Everything in the world has already been marked with a price, and what you get will be paid. It's just that everyone's chips are different, and the price of buying goods is also different. Covestro just had fewer chips and wanted to buy something better, but he happened to run into profiteers.
"It's okay, my father-in-law is very capable, and marrying her at the beginning was just an exchange of interests, and a bumper harvest in career and love. Although she is an illegitimate daughter, she will not care if something really happens. When he mentioned his wife Cosi's face, it was inevitable that there was a little tenderness.
"I didn't see it! You and your sister-in-law are still in an arranged marriage, and I really don't see that the relationship is so good. "It's always interesting for a single person to talk about that.
"People change, who would have thought!" Coth smiled lightly, and turned very serious. "You can't stay here, you and I have been caught in, and we won't be able to get out for seven or eight years. We went to hide in a small nearby country for two years, and then I got a little bit of work and two new identities to live in. ”
"Well, this ship is all I have, ready to go at any time. Do you want to talk to your home on the phone? ”
"I'll call right now, and I'll be ready to leave by water tonight." Kosi went downstairs and walked down the street, found a random shop, and got a new phone card while buying food.
His wife was very excited when she received his communication, and she naturally saw the overwhelming reports. But she didn't want to be distracted by Cosith, so she forced herself to wait anxiously at her father's house. The two of them were grinding on the phone, and his wife supported him to take refuge, and he had not prepared an anonymous account yet, and he would go to him when he stabilized outside.
In Doron's mind, Coth didn't know about the existence of the python and was still cleaning up the camp with the fleet. The reason why Covestro discarded the card after using the phone was to prepare for evacuation. When the fleet came out but he wasn't among them, Doren would have thought of him getting out of the rainforest early.
Back to the rented room, the two of them hastily finished dinner, and returned to the ship with their luggage without checking out. At this time, it is not a comfortable thing, even if it is uncomfortable, you can only endure it. After a little disguise, the two entered the town to make purchases in many places.
The two changed their faces, and even the speedboat was also changed to a light blue paint. Ready to take advantage of dinner time, the speedboat docked at the corner of the pier quietly left the dock without attracting anyone's attention.
Leaving the rainforest for the first time in decades, Ye Guangji did his best to shrink down and dive into the water to get closer to the dock town. He was not in a hurry to attack, but lurked in the waters near the town. Find out the distribution of people in the town, and destroy the town in a short time in the dead of night.
He would follow all the ships that left the harbor in the water, sinking the whole ship into the water at a distance that the town did not notice. Kendrick's converted speedboats, of course, are not in the ranks of these ships. I have to say that the luck of the two is extremely good, as soon as Ye Guangji came out of the rainforest, the two left the scope of the town.
Ye Guangji was quite hidden, and by ten o'clock in the evening, most of the places were closed, and no one noticed that the town was in danger. His ability to restrain his breath was so strong that even a sensible animal could not detect his presence.
In the dead of night, he silently climbed up the riverbank, and the snake's mouth erupted into a fire that surrounded the town. The smoke and fire made the people who had not yet fallen asleep scream and scream, and the whole town suddenly came alive.
"It's on fire! Hurry up and put out the fire! ”
People rushed out into the street in a panic, surrounded on all sides by raging fires. The fire burned into the interior of the dock town, driven by the wind and Ye Guangji. Under the light of the fire, a dark snake shadow shook in the night.
Ye Guangji set fire to the town, collecting souls and collecting valuable things with identification. When the fire is big enough, it is not something he can control, and it is inevitable that something that can be seen will be burned.
People in the face of death become insane, knowing that there is no chance of escape. People chose to take up arms and pull the monster that set it on fire to die with it. The attack of the firearm fell on the body, and the effect was minimal. Sometimes grenades and explosives are pulled back by the snake's tail, and when they fall into the crowd, there are large numbers of deaths.
I don't know if Dolun's luck is good or bad, there are too many people left on the big ship, in order not to make a big noise. Ye Guangji chose to deal with it after setting fire, there were many weapons on the big ship, and there were a few rare heavy weapons.
The power of heavy weapons is comparable to that of a helicopter's cannon, and it can do some damage to Ye Guangji's snake body. The black-clothed bodyguard is well-trained, and he dares to leave behind the mat knowing that he will die, creating an opportunity for the departure of the big ship. It's a pity that it's just useless, and letting the big ship take the first step can't escape from his palm.
Thick smoke covered the sky of the town, and the flames were thinning the oxygen in the air, making the people of the town try to breathe, mixed with the smoke. The sick and infirm did not need to be touched by him, and died in the spread of the fire.
Compared to the fact that most of the quayside is close to the river, these quays are the best place to escape, and if you can jump into the water as long as you can get through the flames, you can wrap yourself in wet clothes and jump into the water.
Ye Guangji naturally thought of this, before he was ready to burn down the town. After taking out some unconscious pythons and waking them up, people in the nearby waters, as long as some blood orchid secretions are dripped into the water, the pythons will be reluctant to leave under the influence of genes.
The boat had long since been wrecked by him, and those who jumped into the river were either drowned in the mouth of the snake or returned to the shore to take refuge. After several twists and turns, there is not one person who can survive, even the few lucky ones who survived also died under Ye Guangji's search.
The fire burned overnight and could not be extinguished, and it is estimated that it will burn for a few more days. There were several explosions along the way, and there were weapons, ammunition, gas, etc. in the town, all of which were flammable and explosive. The originally prosperous dock town has turned into a pitch-black scorched earth, and the ecology will not return to its original appearance for several years.
There was no trace of the modified speedboat found in the destruction of the dock town, but Ye Guangji didn't care. The task of collecting souls is not yet completed, and they will always have the opportunity to meet again, but they will lend his things to the two of them for a while.
