Chapter 442: The Congo River-Chapter 444: Benefits
Democratic Republic of the Congo, a name that many people have heard.
There are also many people who know that this is one of the poorest places in the world.
But few people know that the DRC is the second largest country in Africa and the twelfth largest in the world.
It has the world's second largest rainforest, the world's second largest water resource, the world's second deep-water lake, and a wide range of minerals.
And although most of them are inland, they still have their own access to the sea, and various natural conditions can be described as quite good.
With a population of nearly 100 million and so many resources, the country should be able to develop.
However, the-stirring sticks in all aspects have made this region of Africa always in turmoil, especially the Democratic Republic of the Congo is still a French-speaking region, with Gaul, the emperor, on his head, and the two Congolese wars have directly cut off all possibilities.
As far as Africa is concerned, even South Africa has been fooled and lame, falling from a middle-class developed country to this.
Any African country that has seen some improvement is bound to have all sorts of problems.
The DRC can only say that it has empty potential, but it has not been able to use it.
The whole country is in a state of severe poverty, and dying of starvation is not an uncommon way to die here.
With a GDP of $500 per capita, most people are struggling to survive.
In this case, the Congo River, a natural river, plays a vital role in transportation.
Ferries are the only means of transport available to many Congolese for long distances.
Lao Pa, the captain of such a ferry, travels to and from this dangerous river.
The framed engines were spewing black smoke, and even the entire ferry's engines were completely exposed for easy repairs.
It's a ferry, but it's a weird floating object filled with a punk wasteland-style thing.
I don't know what the original hull looked like, but a lot of tiled planks have been added to make the deck look extremely wide.
The entire deck was crowded with people at this time, and it was extremely difficult to even move around, and with some sheds, it looked like a refugee camp floating on water.
In addition to the reinforcement of the hull itself, there are also some small wooden boats hanging on the side of the boat to take a ride with the wind.
This severe overloading and overloading made the hull move forward quite slowly against the current.
It also makes the journey extremely long, at least more than a month, which is unimaginable to outsiders in this environment.
The whole ship had an indescribable stench.
There are no toilets on board, and you have to go to the toilet directly into the river.
Yes, even the tuba has to run to the stern of the boat and pull the railing to open it directly.
There are instances of falling down and being broken by the propeller if you don't grasp it steadily.
Most of the food for a month is dry food and a little supply when stopping on the road, and the water is just a cup to scoop the water from the river.
This is unbelievable in the eyes of ordinary people, but for the people who live here, it is a norm.
Even if you are already poor, you may still encounter 'pirates' on the road.
Because many of the people who have chosen to travel for so long are still small merchants with some goods, at least these things are attractive enough for the 'pirates' who live here.
But fortunately, most of these pirates are just seeking money, and if there are not many people, they can't take much of anything, so although Lao Pa has encountered more than a dozen robberies, he doesn't care much about them.
He is their food and clothing, and he will never worry about his safety.
But today, on this waterway that has been run many times, Lao Pa always has a sense of season, always feeling that something bad will happen, and his intuition has always been very accurate......
Chirp~chirp~
The dense number of birds suddenly sprang out of the dense forest, crossed the river and flew towards the opposite bank, looking a little abnormal.
And it didn't take long for Lao Pa to see a group of embarrassed figures with guns rushing out of the nearby woods.
Pushing a simple raft, he just ran towards the water's edge.
One foot deep and one shallow foot stepped in the mud, but the movement was still very agile.
Many footprints were trodden on the muddy riverside.
Six or seven people pushed the raft into the water and climbed up.
And there are three people behind them who are looking at the depths of the dense forest with guns with vigilant faces, constantly retreating.
Seeing the appearance of this group of people, Lao Pa couldn't help but feel a sudden burst in his heart.
Although they were all dirty, with a lot of mud and leaves, he could still tell that their outfits were completely different from here!
And there were several white people.
Da Da Da ~ Suddenly, several people on the raft fired at the boat, hitting the water in front of the boat, and at the same time saw them waving their arms to stop the boat.
This 'ferry', which has no protection at all and everyone is in the open air, is quite risky even in the face of ordinary firearms.
Lao Pa didn't have the slightest intention of betting, although he didn't turn off the fire, but he lowered his already slow speed again and leaned towards them.
However, at this moment, all of a sudden, the three gunmen who were constantly staring back into the dense forest, entering waist-high water together, and preparing to turn over and climb onto the raft, seemed to have discovered something.
Shoot directly at the dense forest that is starting to stir.
Da Da Da ~ With the opening of fire, the dense forest stopped for a moment, but when they turned around, they began to stir again.
This made the three people who had already walked to waist-high water uneasy.
At first, it was still a point shot, and when it came to the back, it began to strafe continuously, as if it was frantically venting something.
When the water was up to their chests, they stopped worrying and began to roll over and climb the raft with all their might.
And at this time, Lao Pa and everyone on the ship knew why they had such expressions!
Three surprisingly large pythons emerged from the trees and swam swiftly into the water!
The size of these snakes, which they had never seen even in their perennial habitat, caused a wave of exclamations and a frightening commotion.
Three of the six people on the raft had guns in their hands, and they did not hesitate to fire at the moment when the big snake came out.
But this time, the three giant pythons did not flinch at all.
Rushed into the water as fast as possible.
There was a lot of blood on the muddy shore and on the water, and it was obvious that he had been shot.
But they entered the water at the cost of being wounded!
Even if it is a rifle bullet, the lethality in the water will not exceed one meter!
After the three big snakes entered the Congo River, they were as if they had been shot, and they did not make any more waves.
However, several people on the raft were nervous at this time, staring at the water vigilantly, and at the same time holding homemade oars and constantly accelerating the rowing, wanting to get close to the ferry as soon as possible.
】
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Damn, they're not dead yet! ”
The professor had already taken off his protective suit at this time, and his whole body was like a homeless man.
But as a civil servant, being able to follow him all the way here is enough to see how strong his will is.
Of the researchers who had been escorted before, he and the other two young and strong ones were the only ones left along the way.
And only six fighters remained.
But none of those three snakes could be solved!
The golden retriever also stared coldly at the water at this time, with a solemn face.
It's already the last step, as long as you get through this difficulty and get on the ferry, then the rest is simple!
If they can get on that ferry, with the size of that ship, they can stay on the ship and fight positional battles, and there are so many cannon fodder on the periphery, the safety factor is completely incomparable to now!
Compared to the nervousness of the Golden Retriever and the others, Antoine was completely different, except for guarding the professor, he looked like he was nothing.
The breath of the boss is approaching......
Chapter 443: Convincing people with virtue
While paddling the raft continuously, the golden retrievers who kept an eye on the water were worried about being overturned into the river.
Suddenly, I heard the sounds of panic and screams coming from the ferry behind me.
I didn't know when, the three big snakes actually bypassed them from under the water and arrived at the ferry first!
The most important thing is that they appear in the direction of the other side of the ferry, just enough to completely block the sight of the shooting here.
There is nothing to be done but know that they have appeared!
Then a few people saw that the ferry, which was supposed to be hope, was capsizing!
A large number of people standing by the boat fell into the murky water, and screams and riots became the main theme.
Pulling each other, trampling, crying.
Originally, the three snakes alone, although they were very powerful, were quite difficult to overturn this punk-style ferry with hundreds of people.
But they appeared on the other side first, and they didn't attack aggressively.
Just opened his mouth to threaten, and the people on the ferry frantically squeezed to the side.
Taking advantage of the imbalance of the center of gravity, he took advantage of the situation to lift the boat!
It's really cunning, it's not like an animal at all!
The ballistics of the firearm, the structure of the hull, were taken into account.
They attacked the raft directly, and in the face of the vigilant six guns, there was a high probability that one or two would be taken away, or even all three could be replaced.
But now, first of all, their hopes have been lifted.
All that's left is to wait slowly and patiently, waiting for their vigilance to wear off!
No one can maintain a high level of mental concentration all the time, and as long as they get past the peak, they will probably finish them all without any damage!
watched the ship overturn and countless people overboard.
The few people on the raft who had found a chance to escape were all relieved of the spirit in their hearts.
Completely lost fighting spirit.
"It's over......"
"I haven't brought the news back, I haven't made it public, I can't die yet!"
However, at this moment, there was a surprising and unexpected sound in their ears
"I really didn't expect you to be able to escape so much, the only team that escaped from the rainforest was still under the pursuit of these three little guys."
The sudden sound sent chills down their bodies, and when they turned around, they saw that Ambrera, the instructor who had fallen from the sky before, was already standing on the raft!
I don't know when he came here.
The moment they saw him, everyone lost even the most basic courage to resist.
Obviously he has a gun in his hand, but he only protects it on his chest, and he is as fragile as a weak girl.
Just kidding!
Suddenly, this guy jumped down from the sky and knocked the spider monster away with one punch, okay!
He's so much scarier than those three snakes!
At this time, the professor's eyes lit up and he calmed down and said
"I am willing to pledge allegiance to Ambrera! I'm willing to turn in all my research during this time! ”
This can be said to be the only choice in front of you, and the only way to live!
He is a scientific researcher, a real talent, and he needs it everywhere!
Moreover, he has studied magic deeply enough.
If you are already aware, we will be able to cooperate with you very quickly!
"Yes, you are indeed very good, very talented, and strong-willed."
Wang Yi looked at the professor with an admiring look on his face.
This one, the one who was recruited by the Sackler family at the beginning, is indeed very talented, and he has met at the Seoul Mathematics Conference.
Wang Yi's words also made the professor smile.
"It's an honor to have your appreciation."
"However, the human body still needs to rest, it's too wasteful, let me see your limits......"
After Wang Yi finished speaking, he directly pressed down with his backhand slightly, and slapped the professor's whole body into meat sauce.
Everything happened in an instant, without the slightest pain for him.
When his spirit felt the scorching sensation of the sun, Wang Yi had already completed the capture and contract, sealing him in a silver ornament.
is indeed very talented, chasing and escaping all the way in the rainforest has also forced out the potential of the other party, and under the exhaustion of his physical body, Wang Yi has felt his high-quality spirit body.
So what else is there to say about this?
This guy didn't have any compassion when he experimented with others in the abyss rift, and of course Wang Yi was even more so for him!
"Enzuo, put your pet away and take it back to the rift to guard it, this time, you may have to do it."
Wang Yi looked at the overturned ferry and the crowd of people who fell into the water, and did not mean to save people, but said calmly.
These three big snakes were strengthened by Enzuo's infiltration breath through the barrier for two hundred years, and they can be regarded as Enzuo's volumes.
As Wang Yi's words fell, the three big snakes that were making waves also calmed down at once, and then quickly dived into the water and disappeared.
Only the inclined ferries remained, and those who fell into the water and struggled.
They've always been like this, and they should be able to handle the rest.
The raft was so far away from the ferry, and Wang Yi didn't care if they saw the situation here.
In an isolated place like Congo, there are many myths and myths, so this kind of 'anecdote' doesn't matter......
"What are you doing? Let me paddle? ”
Wang Yi glanced at the remaining survivors.
Originally, it was easy to solve all of them.
But now, it's not necessary.
Although the crack has been patched by itself, whether it is for the materials of the abyss or for the prevention of accidents, this place must be occupied and the mage tower must be built.
It was originally a place for the Sackler family, and it was impossible to hide it.
The rest is naturally to fight for here, well, just directly compete for the right to speak in the DRC.
The minerals here are also quite rich.
In such a remote place, it is best to get silver from close proximity.
Otherwise, it will take a lot of time to transport it from Mexico......
In this case, before Ambrera's employees came, a few miscellaneous people were left to start construction with the undead, which could be regarded as a survival use.
Well, they have all seen the picture of themselves beating Enzuo, and then look at the undead laborers building infrastructure here, they should also have the ability to accept it.
It doesn't matter if you can't accept it, although the breath of the abyss will make the spirit body confused, as long as you erase the consciousness, you can still use it as a grass god.
"I like to convince people with virtue, so I won't force you to say that you must be loyal to me or something, you can choose for yourself......"
Wang Yi looked at the few people who were sliding the raft towards the shore here, and his tone seemed very easy-going.
However, the remains of the professor who had just been photographed into mud were still on the raft.
Of course, they also know what it means to 'convince people with virtue'.
Those who began to pledge allegiance were killed.
What would happen if you didn't?
It makes their scalps tingle just thinking about it......
After experiencing the weirdness of the base in the forest, I have seen the changes of those crazy people.
They also know that sometimes death is a relief!
The choice is very simple.
Because I don't have a choice......
Chapter 444 Interests
When Enzuo invaded and killed all sides, the base took advantage of the last moment when the instrument was damaged, and the golden retrievers still succeeded in transmitting the information.
As soon as Ambrera's medium came out and discovered that this kind of thing was becoming more and more important, the Sackler family paid more and more attention to this place.
Especially with the emergence of the concept of magic, it is listed as the core of the family!
Even the other members of the organization do not share, and at most they sell various plant samples produced by some cracks for various experimental studies.
And as time goes by, the particularity of this place becomes more and more reflected.
There were even the sacklers' own dying elders who chose to sleep in the cracks, and then were taken away in coffins after being 'resurrected'.
There were also quite a few other samples that were taken with them.
It seems to be trying to see if there is a way to bring this 'vampire' back to its senses.
So this time, for that damn director, they hated itchy, and they took out most of the members of the shooting crew in a row.
But where did they think about it, the thing that worried them the most still happened.
The only survivors were mixed up with Ambrera, whom they feared the most.
This led to a series of encirclement, pursuit, and interception, and even poisoning on the plane.
But where did you think about it, there was still an accident at the base!
"Contact has been completely cut off, and there seems to be a strong interference."
"But listening to what they conveyed, it seems that the experiment failed and mutated into a powerful individual?"
"Isn't there a lot of force over there, it's really a waste!"
On the Sackler family's side, several leaders in different fields met each other, and their faces looked ugly.
In their opinion, the secret here is to be able to build the next Ambrera!
The family has been unlucky recently, and they are ready to rely on this turnaround!
As a result, such a situation was unexpected.
They already knew that there would be the occasional mutated creatures.
They are still making some biochemical weapons themselves, and the big snake has been detected to have lived for more than 200 years.
However, the threat is so great that it can eat the base's armament, which is too exaggerated.
Even the biochemical units they have cultivated themselves are armed with heavy armor and heavy firepower, and they are only a carrier in themselves.
"The helicopter has been arranged, but I don't know if it has anything to do with Ambrera...... they have passed all the way, and they are simply unstoppable."
"It should be their stealth helicopter operating in Africa, it's really too long, and several families in Gaul also have a lot of opinions."
"Hmph, they also have opinions about us, let's make sure of the situation first, I hope things don't get to the worst."
"Ambrera ......"
It was the team of the base that shot down the helicopter, and the radio distance could only contact the base, so for the top management of Sakle, before they got the news that Wang Yi's plane was shot down, they had already learned that there was a problem with the base.
The base was lost again, and Ambrera was dangling nearby, which really made them feel uneasy.
With so much influence in Somalia, so many people arranged, and a biochemical team, it was impossible to get Ambrella who came from afar!
Their main forces are in Mexico and Penglai, and they are still in conflict with Da Mei, shouldn't they go all out to guard against it?
What do you do with such a long hand!
And that damn director!
The documentary is well filmed, what snake is chasing?
I went to Gaul to attend a film festival, why did I go back to the Orient again?
It's not a thing!
And while they were waiting here, news came from Africa again that the helicopter that flew over was lost!
Judging from the last contact voice, it was shot down by a stinger.
This kind of news also made the top brass of the Sackler hesitate at once.
If memory serves, there should have been some air defense groups near the base, using Stingers.
Is it the head of the base who has defected?
Defected to Ambrera, or is it another family member of the Order?
But in any case, there is no doubt that the base has changed hands!
As for the mutant who caused the communication to be interrupted in the end, they didn't pay attention to it anymore.
After all this time, the plane was shot down by an anti-aircraft missile, which means that the mutant has been disposed of.
Whether it is the original base that has been disposed of or the party that has entered the house later, in short, the biggest problem now is how to take back the treasure land!
"If it's Ambrera, how are we going to grab it? What if it's an organizational person? ”
"Hey, I can't hide it, so let's just take this out and submit it to the organization, and everyone will develop it together."
"That's the only way, if it's Ambrera, then we can put pressure on it together, and if it's the organization's own people, it's against our rules."
After all, it was an old fritter who had played a lifelong routine, and after getting the news of the air defense missile attack on the base, he immediately made a judgment and quickly came up with a response plan!
……
"Yo, are you willing to take it out?"
"Recently, I heard that you guys are playing crazy over there, and the K virus is used directly, and I'm not afraid of ruining your one-third of an acre."
"Moreover, your pursuers have crossed the line."
“……”
In a conference room at the top of a building in Europe, some people who are usually low-key, but who are very special in the eyes of certain people, are gathered together.
Because of the incident of the castle last time, this time they did not dare to meet in any remote place, so they went directly to the capital of Gaul.
It's not that the defenses here are safer than next to the big and beautiful Federal Guard camps, but it's that the meaning here is different.
Ambrera also doesn't play with fire easily.
The Sackler family has always eaten alone in secret, and occasionally releases something to study together, which naturally causes dissatisfaction among some other families in the organization.
The Sackler family's main sphere of influence is still Somalia, while the strongest traditional power in Africa is still a few families rooted in Gaul.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo is also part of their sphere of influence.
"This time we have a problem, but what do we do now? If you are willing to help, we will work together to develop it in the future, and we alone can really only give it up, but now we can provide some information first, and you can consider it after reading it......"
The representative of the Sackler was also a bachelor, and he directly admitted his mistake first.
Then came up with a number of reports that they had worked on using the rift.
Resurrected from the dead, the two-hundred-year-old snake, the aberrant flesh and blood, the obvious strengthening of DNA telomeres, all kinds of factors are in front of you.
Yes, there is no result yet, at most it can only turn the deceased into irrational 'vampires', but this is indeed related to immortality!
They are all people of this level, and of course they all know what they are thinking, and the Sackler family also understands what is most attractive to others!
After all the understanding, there was silence for a moment, and then one of them spoke
"Ambrera has mastered the 'Magical Supremacy', and if this place is so magical, it will undoubtedly be a great addition to them!"
"Yes, you can research so much with brute force, and with more magic technology, I'm afraid they will soon be able to get more."
"Moreover, this is our sphere of influence."
"Whether it's the base you left behind before, or this area, it has nothing to do with them! Aren't they reasonable? This time, I want them to go out. ”
"That's right, force can be used if necessary!"
For this group of people, how many people will be killed or injured if they really use force is just a number, and they only need to judge the gains and losses, and they don't need to care about the lives and deaths of others.
I've always been at peace with Ambrera, and their combat power is indeed a factor.
But it's not that they're really invincible!
