Chapter 022
Yan Yihu came to her senses, and without caring, she reached out and pulled Su Xiaole onto her Yahoo, while Meng Shubiao quickly rolled on the spot and landed on the back seat of You Shaoliang's car. The two Yahoos were full of energy and flew away in an instant!
The monster just stood there obediently. It looked at the baby who wanted to chase it, and suddenly opened its mouth and let out a roar.
Although the baby was just born, its basic fear instinct made it stop. It was observing the monster opposite and suddenly opened its mouth to cry. The sound waves were strong, but it was weak inside and it was obviously a test.
The monster was furious. It jumped up and swooped down, carrying the baby directly back to the mall!
In fact, although the level of this baby is S-level, its strength is far from reaching the strength of S-level. First of all, it is still very weak when it is born. Secondly, it is a human-born alien, and there is still a big gap compared to the real baby from another world.
But even if it was a young baby, Meng Shubiao and his two men from the Earth Realm could not defeat him.
The three people who escaped parked their Yacht on the overpass. The view here was clear and there were no roads in front or behind. Unless there were Emerald Birds attacking, this would be a relatively safe place in the city.
"Le Le," Yan Yihu got off the Yahoo and looked at Su Xiaole seriously, "What's wrong with that monster? Did you buy it from Rudang Auction House? Was it tamed by Rudang Auction House? That's why it listens to you?"
You Shaoliang set the Yacht to automatic cruise mode, then stood at the edge of the overpass with a somewhat gloomy look on his face.
Although Ah Hu still had fantasies about the young man in front of him, You Shaoliang knew that the person in front of him was not that simple at all. Although he did not have the smell of a monster, he was very special every time he appeared.
It's more accurate to say that the monster obeyed Su Xiaole out of fear and rank oppression rather than being tamed.
The monster was now wearing too many clothes, and You Shaoliang couldn't see its appearance clearly, so he wasn't sure if this monster was the one they had seen in the hospital. If so...
After listening to Yan Yihu's question, Su Xiaole blinked and thought for a while, "It's my pet. It doesn't eat or drink water, and it can even help me fight. Doesn't Ah Hu like it?"
"But it's very dangerous," Yan Yihu frowned, "Le Le, you can't take it into the safe zone, understand?"
"So, Ah Hu doesn't like my pet?" Su Xiaole's eyes turned red with sadness.
This time, Yan Yihu was not ambiguous. She shook her head firmly and said, "I don't like it!"
Meng Shubiao felt a little guilty watching from the side. After all, Lele seemed to be about to cry out of grievance. Although he also felt that what Ah Hu said was right, Lele was crying...
He scratched his head, rummaged through his backpack for a while, took out a piece of candy and handed it to Su Xiaole, "Here, this is your candy. When we first met, you seemed to like this flavor."
Su Xiaole obediently took the candy, peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in his mouth. When he tasted the sweet taste, his eyes immediately narrowed with happiness.
“You are such a nice person.”
"After you finish eating the candy, follow us back to the safe zone, okay?"
"Brother, have you completed your mission?" Su Xiaole asked naively.
"Well……"
"This candy tastes so familiar," Su Xiaole chewed and chewed, then raised his head and asked again, "Is this candy the medicine my brother found for Boss Mo?"
"Hey, hey, hey, it's been a long time since this happened! Please don't mention it! Boss Mo has forgotten about it, don't remind him!"
Su Xiaole tortured him twice in a row, almost making him crawl under the overpass in shame. But after all, she was a little cutie, and she probably didn't understand this!
Meng Shubiao, who had barely managed to comfort himself, stepped forward and carried Su Xiaole on his shoulders. In order to prevent Su Xiaole from saying anything shocking again, he instructed Yan Yihu, "Ah Hu, let A Liang lead you, I'll lead him, let's go back to the safe zone and shake them off!"
The protagonist's treatment is miserable enough. They were the ones who discovered the corpses, and then went back to the safe zone to harass others. They were also the ones who discovered the baby, and they still had to go back to the safe zone to harass others.
It was this group of people who discovered the crisis of the safety zone's collapse twice. Now, Sun Shang, the district chief of the Beijing North Safety Zone, was frightened and worried when he saw them.
The frequency of encountering strange beasts is comparable to that of their entire northern Beijing district reconnaissance team.
The speed of the Yacht was very fast, flying close to the ground very steadily. Meng Shubiao, who was riding the Yacht, was so excited that he quickly forgot about Su Xiaole's soul-searching.
But would Su Xiaole let him forget so easily?
No, it's double the commission after all.
The energy spread silently, covering the surrounding area in an instant.
Meng Shubiao suddenly saw a deep pit on the road ahead. He screamed and stopped the motorcycle sideways, just at the edge of the pit.
"What happened?"
Not long after Yan Yihu asked the question, they saw the deep pit in front of them.
You Shaoliang, who was carrying Yan Yihu, braked suddenly and the two of them jumped off the Yacht quickly.
"Why is there a pothole here?" Even if the Yacht can fly close to the ground, it still needs the support of the road.
The cry of the Emerald Bird was circling in the sky. Meng Shubiao looked up at the sky with disgust and guessed, "Is there a rotting corpse down there?"
If it is not a rotten corpse, it will not attract the attention of the King Kong Bird. The King Kong Bird is easy to deal with. Unless it is seriously injured, it will not easily attack humans.
"Let's take a detour," Yan Yihu said calmly, "It should be that another organization encountered a monster here, and this deep pit was left behind after the battle."
Meng Shubiao pulled up the map on Yahoo and observed the surrounding terrain. "The surrounding area has been marked as a red zone by the reconnaissance team. It's too dangerous. Let's find a relatively safe place in the ruins to settle down first, and then find a way to go back tomorrow."
The Red Zone is an area in the ruins where there are a lot of alien beasts, and they have even formed their own level ranking. The reconnaissance team does not have the extra manpower to clean up these places, so they can only temporarily mark these places as Red Zones to remind hunters not to enter easily without being fully prepared.
They had wasted a lot of time on the way here, and after encountering the baby they were in a hurry to escape without taking a break. Now it was getting dark, and their physical strength was not in the best condition, so it was not wise to enter the red zone at this time.
After discussion, they decided to go back and find a place to rest.
As a result, I kept looking for...
"I heard that there were many factories producing hardware cables here before it became a ruin. Do you think that more than just the mall is selling that type of cable?"
Thus, the people who were originally looking for a camping site now had an additional task.
The sky gradually darkened, and the chattering of alien beasts could be heard all around. You Shaoliang frowned, "We can't look for it anymore."
"I didn't expect it to get dark so quickly," Yan Yihu also noticed the change in the sky, "Let's go back to the place we picked out before to rest, and then think of a way to go back when it's light tomorrow."
Su Xiaole, who had been following everyone obediently, said very little along the way. When he saw that they were going back to the place they had chosen before, he also followed them obediently.
This is the headquarters of a bank. Because the power system is damaged, the door of the vault can no longer be opened with a password. However, in order to increase the hope of survival for the hunters in the ruins, the Alliance government quickly announced the methods of opening the vault doors of all known banks with manual dials.
They soon arrived at the vault door, and You Shaoliang stepped forward to turn the manual dial. By this time, it was already completely dark, which made everyone feel a sense of urgency.
"Aliang, is it open?"
You Shaoliang said nothing, but his hands kept moving, his brows were furrowed, and his expression was serious.
Just when Meng Shubiao wanted to ask again, all the sounds around him seemed to disappear, leaving only the sound of You Shaoliang spinning the roulette wheel behind him.
This sudden silence made people's hair stand on end. Meng Shubiao held the greedy wolf in his hand, and Yan Yihu also leaned forward to protect You Shaoliang.
Su Xiaole suddenly spoke up from behind the two of them, "It's chasing us."
"Who?" Meng Shubiao asked subconsciously.
"Baby." Su Xiaole replied.
Because of the level suppression, when the baby appeared, all the monsters around retreated, leaving only the baby, but it was also the most terrifying baby.
Meng Shubiao bit the tip of his tongue, trying to let go of his panic in the pain, but after seeing the dark shadow appearing in front of him, he realized that in the face of life and death, a little pain pressure would not work at all.
Outside the vault door, in the narrow passage, a small black shadow was hovering in a strange posture, half crawling, and the faint sound of a baby crying could be heard from the front.
After hearing the crying, You Shaoliang just paused for a moment, then spun the roulette wheel even faster, "30 seconds."
What can you do in 30 seconds?
A few breaths is not even enough time to pee.
But can they hold out for thirty seconds after the baby finds them?
29 seconds,
The mechanical locks of the roulette wheels clicked.
In the darkness, the baby raised his head, seemingly curious about the clicking sound of the wheel locks.
24 seconds,
The baby withdrew his gaze and focused on Meng Shubiao again.
Meng Shubiao: ????
20 seconds,
Yan Yihu's palms were sweating, but she didn't even dare to blink.
15 seconds,
The baby hadn't launched an attack yet, and Meng Shubiao couldn't help but glance back to see if You Shaoliang was about to open the safe door.
Just when Meng Shubiao was distracted, the baby opened his mouth and a shrill sound was projected back and forth in the narrow corridor. Meng Shubiao felt as if he was suddenly hit by a huge rock in the chest. A fishy and sweet taste surged up and his eyes went dark.
However, at the critical moment, Yan Yihu had her ears covered by Su Xiaole who suddenly appeared in front of her. As the sound wave came, Su Xiaole's face turned pale, and the purple crystal on his forehead suddenly shone brightly. A beam of light descended, protecting everyone in the middle.
"Curtain device?"
9 seconds,
"It's not a curtain weapon!"
5 seconds,
The attack came again, and the amethyst on Su Xiaole's forehead shattered suddenly. Yan Yihu felt bad, and the next second she lost her strength due to the fatal sonic attack.
3 seconds,
"Prepare!"
尤韶涼急的臉色通紅，嬰孩兩次的攻擊都被同伴擋下了，即使不回頭看，他也知道此時同伴肯定是強弩之末。
聽到尤韶涼的聲音，孟書飚心下一喜，下意識拉住煙乙狐和蘇小樂的手。
咔嚓，輪鎖轉輪對上的聲音，身後的金庫門緩緩打開，而眼前的嬰孩因為兩次攻擊都失敗，已經大怒，它雙手如同猴子一般攀附在牆上，往前一跳就襲擊了過來。
1秒，
“走！”
孟書飚猛然用力，拉着煙乙狐和蘇小樂就要走，可嬰孩太快了，幾乎只是眨眼間就落在了所有人身後！
拉着煙乙狐的孟書飚感覺手裏一空，他驚駭地回頭看去，“阿狐！”
貪狼瞬間充能，而這時候，他突然感覺到了熟悉的力道，将他一下子踹進了金庫了，下一秒，金庫大門轟然關閉，而關閉的剎那，尤韶涼和煙乙狐被人從外面扔了進來！
“阿狐？”孟書飚掙紮着爬過去，一切發生的太快了，到現在孟書飚既後怕又不知道發生了什麽。
“樂樂，是樂樂，阿涼把金庫大門打開，樂樂在外面！”
尤韶涼二話不說就要去開啓金庫的門，可當他手放在輪盤上使勁的時候，才發現外面不知道被誰卡住了，他在裏面根本就打不開！
金庫當中，煙乙狐狠狠踹了大門幾腳，見金庫大門紋絲不動，她放聲大哭。
“剛剛是嬰孩抓住了我，樂樂為了救我，把我拖了出來，”煙乙狐試圖去擰動轉盤，可越轉心裏越絕望，“孟子，樂樂不會出事的對不對？”
孟書飚臉色少見的陰沉，他擡槍，開口，“阿狐，讓開，我把輪盤轟了。”
“沒用的，”尤韶涼開口，“把輪盤炸了只是開了裏面這層鎖，但金庫大門光機關就好幾層，一旦破壞了輪盤，我們就真的出不去了。”
“該死的！”孟書飚聞言将貪狼往背後一收，上前就使出全力轉動，可不知道是不是他的錯覺，剛剛他居然感覺輪盤活動了一下？
門外的蘇小樂拍拍手，一切的幻境全部消失，外面天光大量。
而眼前的嬰孩被怪物提着脖頸，乖巧地縮着四肢，一點也沒有剛剛的張牙舞爪。
蘇小樂将額頭上的紫水晶拿下來，上面哪裏有一絲裂痕？
不過既然給了煙乙狐幻覺，系統就不能再以額飾的方式出現了，将紫水晶往手腕上一貼，一條嶄新的鏈子出現。
金庫是防火防盜隔音防潮的，所以現在裏面是什麽動靜蘇小樂一點也沒聽見。
相應的，外面的聲響裏面也接收不到。
随手将輪鎖用地上掉落的金條別上，黃金畢竟軟，以裏面那幾個人的實力，估計破門是遲早的問題，否則主角團隊餓死在金庫裏，全劇終，他的能量也別想要回來了。
做完這些，蘇小樂才有功夫觀察眼前的嬰孩。
漆黑的皮膚，跟它的孕婦媽媽一樣，不過是一口利齒，尖利而細密，而嬰孩的手上居然長了蹼。
這是嬰孩，卻又不是嬰孩。
蘇小樂讓怪獸帶着嬰孩出去見世面後，打算回安全基地找人詢問嬰孩的情報。
畢竟漫畫還沒有更新到那裏，即使他回去翻漫畫也沒有多大的作用。
空間輪轉，陌懷岚轉動着輪椅，出現在了如檔拍賣行。
宋輝祥正在清點明天即将拍賣的拍品，聞言連忙帶着人趕來。
“老板，今天的拍品冊子已經全部發出去了，您要看看名單嗎？”
陌懷岚并沒有接名單，他眼神溫柔地看着自己手裏的鞭子，輪椅緩緩往前走着，他不緊不慢，緩聲問：“咱們的郭會長在上面嗎？”
“這……拍品沒郭會長感興趣的東西，所以就沒請他。”
像郭奉世那樣的人物，他們哪裏敢随便請？
輪椅停下，陌懷岚手裏的鞭子在他的手上一點一點，他嘴角的笑容漸漸危險，“沒感興趣的東西？”
宋輝祥硬着頭皮跟在後面，勉強應了聲是，可他的腦子裏卻迅速閃過那只慘死的翡翠鳥，一瞬間他臉都白了。
“老板，我這就去給郭會長送一張請帖，親自送過去！”
将鞭子卡進輪椅的扶手，陌懷岚冷笑一聲，“宋經理的意思是，沒拍品依然要讓郭會來？呵呵，邀請函呢？”
拍賣行有準備的制作精美的空白邀請函，到時候邀請個達官顯貴，只要手寫上名字就能代表誠意。
宋輝祥，“我這就去填上郭會，老板您稍等……”
“不用填了，我直接送過去。”
既然連對方感興趣的拍品都沒有，邀請函送去對方就一定來？
免了填寫的功夫，他親自上門，反正他的目的也不是讓郭奉世來參加拍賣行。
被老板一套操作整懵的宋輝祥，很快就将空白的邀請函送了過來，并找了車目送着老板離開。
任務工會人來人往，廣場上的雕塑折射着陽光。
車停下，輪椅被人搬下，陌懷岚把玩着邀請函，沒有讓任何人幫他，自己從旁邊的電梯上了樓。
陳秘書正陷入工作的海洋不可自拔，焦頭爛額下看到陌老板，他連忙起身。
“陌老板？”
陌懷岚沒什麽誠意地将手裏的邀請函遞出去，“這是拍賣行送郭會的禮物，現在肯定能進去了對嗎？”
聽聽多正常的語氣，怎麽聽着就讓人頭皮發麻呢？
陳秘書勉強扯出笑容，伸手往裏面引路，“陌老板這邊來，我去通知郭會。”
聽到外面動靜的郭奉世直接開了辦公室的門，他遙遙看着坐着輪椅的陌懷岚，有些牙疼地磨了磨牙，卻又立即繃緊了臉。
“腿腳不方便還來給我送請帖，陌老板的真誠太讓我感動了，不過我最近忙，沒時間過去，”想了想，郭奉世感覺自己還沒說完，繼續叭叭開口，“我看了拍賣行公布出來的拍品，你們有的我都有，不去。”
“一張邀請函換你一條消息，換不換？”
“哈？”
“空白的邀請函，沒有填名字，沒有填日期，也沒有填場次，說不定哪天郭會落魄了，這張邀請函會成為你救命的稻草。”
敢上來就對着他嘲諷，整個京北，估計除了做事毫無顧忌的陌懷岚，都找不到第二個。
兩人進了辦公室，郭奉世的辦公桌上擺放着樸實無華的炒面，看樣子已經吃了一多半了。
“你可以說說你想聽的消息，但我不一定願意告訴你，”郭奉世面色如常地将剩下的炒面掃進垃圾桶，“畢竟你說的落魄這種事，我感覺不一定能輪上我，畢竟我背景比你深厚。”
“官方記載的嬰孩是什麽樣？”陌懷岚直接開口。
“嬰孩，你碰到異獸嬰孩了？”郭奉世神色嚴肅，他坐下身操作着打開電腦，從本地存的文件裏調閱，“如果是在京北附件出現的，我要盡快找我的保镖護着我離開這裏。”
很快，郭奉世就找到了他想要的資料，“你的終端帶了嗎？”
異獸世界是有終端的，但因為能量耗費大，平時聯系也能靠任務工會的任務卡，所以大多數人不會選擇随身攜帶。
但陌懷岚顯然是不怕耗費能量的主，他将終端的接收器打開，舉起手示意了一下。
很快，他就接收到了一份文件，但文件并不大。
他打開，就看到一張圖片，跟所有人設想的嬰孩的長相并不一樣，嬰孩與其說像人類，其實更像猿猴，而且它還有一身白色的毛，爪子是紅色的。
“這是當初作戰隊冒死拍下來的，至于嬰孩的實力，是專家後來根據士兵的口述預估的，其實并不很準确，可以說我們對它一無所知，你見到嬰孩了？”郭奉世坐過來，看着認真看照片的陌懷岚問。
“沒見過，”陌懷岚将終端關上，二話不說轉身就準備走，“不用送。”
“等等，你還沒說你為什麽問嬰孩的，你這樣的人做什麽事都會有目的，突然來我這裏要嬰孩的資料，你敢跟我說你就是為了看看？”
陌懷岚要走，郭奉世反而舍不得了，他站在陌懷岚輪椅前面攔着人，嘴叭叭一張就一大串話。
“就是為了看看，難道還要你批準？”
見郭奉世在前面擋着，陌懷岚不耐煩笑了笑，他擡頭看着郭奉世，“聽說你的保镖會在你身邊随時待命保護你，現在他們在嗎？”
“當然在。”郭奉世下意識答。
“那就好……”陌懷岚前一秒還笑着，下一秒突然變臉，扶手裏的鞭子抽出，幾乎剎那閃電突襲而至，啪一聲就抽到了郭奉世的腰上！
在郭奉世的慘叫裏，陌懷岚從容轉動輪椅離去，“忘記說了，我讨厭別人擋我路。”
保镖從暗處沖出，就想要将還沒走遠的陌懷岚攔下，身後是郭奉世忍痛的聲音，“別招惹他！”
“郭會，你怎麽樣？”
Guo Fengshi held his waist and stood up with a cold sweat on his face. His whole body felt like it was being eaten by ants. Even though he was numb, he still felt severe pain. "The whip in his hand is not an ordinary whip. Check, who is he!"
Mo Huailan walked away without caring whether he had offended anyone, but it was obvious that he had his own things to do, so he beat up the other person's president in the previous second, and posted the task he needed on the Task Union in the next second.
A hunter passed by below and saw the light screen above his head, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Looking for clues about a baby? Am I sick or is the person who issued the mission sick?"
"The person who issued the mission is Mo Huailan, the owner of Rudang Auction House."
"Oh, it seems I am sick."
Because the rewards for the baby mission were generous, all the hunters who saw it would stop to discuss it. However, after seeing the baby, it was estimated that only a few people would survive, so no one would take the mission.
Mo Huailan, who had taken on the mission, did not wait anxiously for the person to take up the mission. He went to the Mission Union to hire a team himself, and planned to check out the place where the protagonist was trapped first. After all, if the protagonist was too useless and did not come out in the end and starved himself to death, this could be regarded as the comic with the worst ending in history.
By the way, he also needs to consolidate the identities of Su Xiaole and Mo Huailan.
Only when he has consolidated his powers, can he do something later that others can understand and feel sorry for him.
But before they reached the vault, they saw the protagonist and his group running out of the vault in a panic. Even though they were not in good condition, they seemed to have no missing limbs, so they were okay.
