Chapter 284 Abnormal Situation
The three of them carried out a series of concealments together, and finally came to the northeast corner of the city wall in Chen Changsheng's memory.
This location is very remote. Except for the occasional patrol soldiers who pass by, almost no one comes here on weekdays.
As for the patrolling soldiers, most of them were attracted by Lin Shi's beast tide today, so there was no one left in this corner.
The smooth journey made Chen Changsheng's nervousness and sense of crisis dissipate somewhat.
"Old Chen, where is the exit?"
Xu Fucai was running out of breath. He was already a little fat and had a big belly, and his legs and feet were not as agile as Chen Changsheng's. He almost lost his temper while running all the way.
He now puts all his hopes on Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng walked around for a few steps, looked around for a moment, stopped and pointed at his feet and said:
"This is it! Dig this place up!"
Then he took out an ordnance shovel and started digging under his feet.
Chen Jingrui took out a dagger and joined in.
Xu Fucai didn't bring anything with him and stood there at a loss.
Soldiers cleared the snow in the shelter every day, so the snow was not thick. After clearing the snow, the two started digging.
When Chen Changsheng asked someone to dig a tunnel at this location, in order to prevent discovery, he specially asked someone to place the entrance of the tunnel one meter below the ground.
You wouldn't know it if you didn't dig. After digging for several minutes, Chen Changsheng discovered that the soil he was once familiar with had become so hard.
He was sweating profusely while digging, but he only dug out a few pieces of mud!
On the contrary, Chen Jingrui, who had always seemed weak, actually dug much faster than him.
Time was running out and there was no time to think too much. Chen Changsheng asked Xu Fucai and himself to dig alternately. It took the three of them nearly twenty minutes to finally dig out the tunnel entrance.
At this time, Lin Tianrui had ordered people to search and arrest Chen Changsheng and other missing party members in the shelter.
There were many people involved in Lu Chaotian's incident this time, including soldiers, evolvers, and high-level shelter officials. Three traitors were even caught in the scientific research institute.
Lin Tianrui acted responsibly and ordered that the direct participants in this incident be arrested and executed secretly in the shelter's prison.
The families of those who were executed were kicked out of the shelter after all their supplies were confiscated.
These people usually live a comfortable life, and 90% of the time they will not be able to survive leaving the shelter, which can be regarded as a different kind of execution.
As for those soldiers and evolvers who surrendered or did not participate to a high degree, they were organized into the shelter death squad.
(As the name implies, whenever there is danger, you must be the first to attack. Only by making great achievements can you become an ordinary soldier again.)
Because they were all in the shelter, there was almost no place to run if they wanted to. All the participants in this incident were quickly arrested.
Except for Chen Changsheng and Xu Fucai.
Not long after, a soldier reported:
"The leader, Chen Changsheng, his son, and Xu Fucai are not at home.
We found a dug passage in the northeast corner of the city wall and suspected that the three of them escaped through a tunnel prepared in advance.
At present, Chief Wang Chao has led people to follow the footprints to chase him. "
Not long after, Wang Chao returned and reported to Lin Tianrui:
"Chief, the person has been found."
Lin Tianrui was not surprised, nodded and said:
"Did you bring it back?"
Wang Chao's expression was a little strange.
"Didn't you bring it back?"
"I chased three kilometers westward from the exit of the tunnel and found the bodies of Xu Fucai and Chen Changsheng. They were both dead."
Lin Tianrui was a little surprised when he heard this: "Oh? How did the two of them die?"
“The traces at the scene look like two people fighting each other for supplies, but according to my observation, many of them are man-made traces.
Someone should have killed both of them and disguised the scene to look like fratricide. I suspected that Chen Changsheng's son killed both of them, but I didn't find Chen Changsheng's son. "
Wang Chao lowered his head, a little ashamed.
A third-level evolver, with a small team, didn't even find a teenage boy, which made him a little worried.
"You mean, Chen Changsheng's son killed him and Xu Fucai, pretended that they were killing each other and then ran away?"
Lin Tianrui was completely surprised after hearing this.
...
Here, Lin Shi led the herd back to the safe house.
When leaving Lin Tianrui, Lin Shi reminded him to ask Dean Li to make more genetic pills when he comes back, and he will use other source materials to replace them next time.
Give the old man who is nothing scary a little more work.
After Lin Shi absorbed the source power of the corpses he took out, he found a hidden place and buried them.
Although these corpses could be used to attract source beasts, he chose not to do so.
After returning to the safe house, Lin Shi immediately continued to provide genetic pills to the special plant in the basement.
One fruit can increase mental power by 200 points. This kind of mutated plant must be properly provided for.
Lin Shi turned over his hands and took out more than a dozen genetic pills. After thinking about the long process of results, he took out some more genetic pills from the space.
Thirty genetic pills were put directly on it.
When the fruit was already half-ripe, it took a month and nearly 500 genetic pills to mature it in advance.
This time only one flower bud grew, and I don’t know how long it will take.
So this time Lin Shi decided to be bolder and put twice as many genetic pills on it.
Before scattering the pills and leaving, Lin Shi was still thinking:
"I wonder if so many gene pills can be completely absorbed by the mutant plants?"
It turned out that Lin Shi was overthinking.
The next day, when Lin Shi came down to check, he found that all 30 gene pills had been absorbed.
Thirty gene pills contain 90 points of source power, and they were absorbed so quickly, which surprised him.
The flower buds on the mutant plants have grown a little.
It has turned into a small flower bud.
Lin Shi checked the mutant plant and found no abnormalities or side effects. After thinking for a moment, he put another 50 gene pills on the soil at the root of the mutant plant.
If outsiders knew that Lin Shi took out 50 gene pills at a time as fertilizer for the mutant plants, they would definitely denounce Lin Shi's waste.
Fifty gene pills are 500,000 contribution points, which ordinary survivors can't earn in their lifetime working for the shelter.
Even for evolvers, every time they kill a source beast together, they can only get about 10,000 to 30,000 contribution points.
It also depends on luck whether they can survive.
In fact, Lin Shi is a little distressed.
He now only has more than 3,000 gene pills in total. If he puts in 50 pills each time, they will be used up in two months.
And he is not completely sure whether the effect of the second fruit can reach the level of increasing 200 points of mental power at a time like the first fruit.
After putting in 50 gene pills, on the third day.
When Lin Shi came down to check again.
He was surprised to find that all 50 gene pills had been absorbed by the mutant plants!
