Gloomy and gloomy is the only word that can be used to describe the state of the people in this room.
It had just been a day since the other party launched a full-scale attack, but this day was full of bad news. The most uncomfortable thing is that you think you have guessed the other party's key point, but the other party no longer cares.
Although Uncle Liang's safety here is guaranteed, his ability does not have the power to directly attack and cannot be used in combat. I thought it wouldn't be too difficult for Chen Xue's hand-to-hand nuclear fusion power to deal with the monsters on the mountain, but after all this time, the spider monsters are still wreaking havoc in the city, showing no signs of weakening at all.
Nine people remain.
Except for Yin Luo and Sun Mozhu, who can no longer be contacted, all the known people, maybe even all, have gathered here. This scene made Lu Ning have a vision for a moment, as if she was still in the villa where evil ghosts were having a carnival, and everyone exuded a sense of death.
Only Shen Xinyue seemed to be able to maintain her mood.
The more test fields you survive, the clearer you will be about what you should do and when. Shen Xinyue now seems to have completely given up on fighting for points, and she doesn't care at all about Danma's destruction.
The only good news is that Uncle Liang brought Yan Yue and ten other people who were rescued from the hospital back here in time, preventing them from falling into danger again. On the other hand, Bai Meng didn't know much about Cheng Wuling. Her injury won't get better in the past few days, and I'm afraid it was deliberately arranged. However, she recalled a key clue. In those days, when Cheng Wuling helped her arrange treatment and stay with her, he had to call a taxi every time before leaving.
Although Danma is not particularly developed, the bus lines in the old city are still preserved and it can be seen that the public transportation network here covers a wide area. If you don't have a private car, it's very convenient to travel by bus. Lu Ning also took the bus when walking around Danma a few days ago.
The Institute of Life Sciences is not a particularly remote place. Shu Xingruo remembered that there is a station less than 500 meters away, so there is no need to take a taxi every time.
"She might go somewhere else, or even spend a lot of time away from the institute."
Shu Xingruo spread out a map of Danma's bus routes and started looking for areas that were not covered.
"It's more convenient to take a taxi... No, considering that she won't reveal her location to the driver and has to get off the bus and leave early, the location must be further away from the station."
"Lake Tosu?"
As one of the places where the Seven Nights of Strange Tales took place, this place immediately fell into Lu Ning's eyes.
"This is too conspicuous..."
"But……"
Why can't it be obvious?
The two looked at each other and understood each other's meaning without saying anything.
"The key to Lake Tosu that I know is at the bottom of the lake. If you want to go down, you must bring diving equipment." Shu Xingruo said immediately.
"Now we have nowhere to look."
"But it's not like there's no chance."
Lu Ning immediately went out to find Uncle Liang, and rushed back happily after a while.
"Uncle Liang said that the tourist station at Tosu Lake has wetsuits for rent. If it is not damaged, you can find the necessary equipment."
"Then let's take action now...how is your injury?"
"It's not a big problem. We need to call two more people to prevent shortage of manpower. Luo Lin! Can you help me?"
Luo Lin walked out slowly from the back room. Now the room was full of injured people, and he had to devote himself to the work of helping with treatment. Even a martial arts practitioner was a little tired after a busy day.
"what happens?"
"We are going to Lake Tosu, will you come?"
Luo Lin's eyes suddenly lit up, he rubbed his shoulders and said, "Going to make a comeback?"
"Go and make a comeback."
"Then count me in! I'll call Shi Yi too, I'm so suffocated today!"
He happily ran back to the back room and shouted, and came out with Shi Yi in less than a minute.
"Tell me, no matter what the plan is, at this point we have to put it all together."
The older man had an eager look on his face.
"Next we will go to Tosu Lake, which is most likely the hiding place of the star spirits. According to Shu Xingruo, the key is underwater. We need to find the diving equipment first, and then go to the bottom of the lake. We must find the true location before dawn Come. If my guess is correct, the biggest threat to Lake Tosu, which is the servants guarding there, has left. But that does not mean safety. The enemies we may face include three types: the research institute, the church, and the police station. aspect, but their strength is only that of ordinary people, at least not overwhelming."
Shu Xingruo picked up what Lu Ning said: "They are going to release the protoss, but they have been executing the Silence Plan all day today, which is already a long time. We can't afford to wait, and we won't wait. The key task now is to find the protoss and the The corresponding relationship between the Sons of Heaven and the most critical part of the entire plan, which is the release process. But we must not have a head-on conflict with the Sons of Heaven."
Anyone who has met Yu Chan and experienced her terrifying power will make this judgment without exception.
"In addition, unless we meet, do not communicate remotely in any way. Since the other party can isolate Danma from communicating with the outside world, it is not impossible to monitor and tamper with the internal information. This time we cannot leave any information to the other party - in case we show up In a scattered situation, everyone has to rely on their abilities. This is a risk, do you understand?"
Luo Lin and Shi Yi nodded, of course they would not back down.
"What about after we find it?"
"The currently known Sons of Heaven are Pei Xuan and Yu Chan. The Sons of Heaven have a direct suppression effect on the servants. If possible, our top priority this time is to obtain such control. But the intelligence may not be available until we enter Tosu Lake. …”
At this time, there was a rumble of thunder outside, and along with the thunderstorm, the door to the main hall where the four of them were was suddenly opened, and a wet figure in black appeared at the door.
"Looks like it's not too late, right?"
Facing the shocked eyes of the people in the room, Sun Mozhu raised a smile and raised the metal box in his hand.
No one imagined that Sun Mozhu could come back.
Yu Chan's pursuit and the city's blockade. Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible to cross the city and reach the old city without any special abilities.
She was not unscathed. She had two penetrating wounds on her left arm, a 20-centimeter deep wound on her back that was about 20 centimeters deep, and a bite on her calf. There were also multiple burns. She looked miserable when she walked into the light, but she was still alive.
"Those church guys are just crazy!"
When Shu Xingruo helped her suture the wound, Sun Mozhu complained.
"I accepted that Yu Chan was behind the attack, but when I activated the explosives to blow up the research institute and escaped, I was bitten by a guy who was still half alive! Can you believe it? A person in such a state could actually He's still alive and can bite people! He's not a zombie that escaped somewhere!"
"It's full of energy."
Luo Lin was a little relieved to hear such loud complaints, which meant it was okay. As for injuries, which are commonplace for people like them, they will recover for free as soon as they return to the distribution center, so there is no need to worry at all.
"Anyway, it feels good to see you again." Sun Mozhu sighed, suppressing her excitement. She didn't say much about the hardships along the way, but everyone knew it.
"So are we."
At this time, Lu Binying and others had also rushed out after hearing the news. Sun Mozhu's survival was undoubtedly a huge encouragement to the currently sluggish morale, especially since she had escaped from the hands of the Son of Heaven. This hope was also huge.
Although it cannot be defeated, it is not inescapable.
The detailed records about the Son of Heaven brought back by Sun Mozhu were even more of a surprise.
After some discussion, Sun Mozhu also joined the team heading to Tosu Lake, and Luo Lin ran out and drove the car over. Taking advantage of this time, Lu Ning pulled Yan Yue aside and asked her a question in a low voice.
Yan Yue showed a somewhat sad expression, but still nodded.
"Thank you, senior sister. Now we have a better chance of winning."
"You... protect yourself and come back alive."
"Don't worry, we will go back alive. I cherish my life."
Lu Ning smiled at her and made a promise.
At 6:45 pm on July 23, Lu Ning, Shu Xingruo, Luo Lin, Sun Mozhu and Shi Yi took some food and water and drove to Tosu Lake.
At 7:10 p.m., a fire broke out on Yuncang Mountain, and the black smoke that condensed the spider monster completely dissipated, but the chaos in the city was still unresolved.
At 7:20, the group arrived at the tourist service station less than one kilometer away from Tosu Lake.
The day is ending.
The five people parked the car in a hidden place and got into the service station. At this time, there was no one here, and the staff had already disappeared. However, the rental items were all locked in the cabinet, which of course did not pose any difficulty. Shu Xingruo pried open one by one and easily found the cabinet where the diving equipment was kept.
A complete set of diving suits, breathing masks, and oxygen bottles. The only problem is that most oxygen bottles are small, and a twelve-liter bottle can last about an hour underwater at most.
"The deepest depth of Tosu Lake is thirteen meters, but it is very large. It will take a lot of time to find what you are looking for. Lu Ning, Sun Mozhu, if you two are injured, please don't go down. Just keep watch on the shore." Luo Lin thought for a while and said.
"If there are any monsters with special attacks in the water, only I can see them."
"I think it's more dangerous to stay on shore than underwater."
The two people unanimously opposed it, and the reasons were very good.
With a headache, Luo Lin picked up two sets of clothes in their size and threw them over, still trying to dissuade:
"Can you dive?"
Sun Mozhu knows how to do it. After spending so long in the distribution center, she has learned many skills necessary for an adventurer, and diving is just one of them.
However, Lu Ning has never tried it. Her previous physical condition and her ability to learn to swim were all due to her strong perseverance.
"Well……"
Lu Ning stared at the diving suit in her hand, having just realized that the two were not the same thing.
