Chapter 175: Deep into the Polluted Area
Ivan's repeated agreement made Basil a little annoyed.
He turned his head, frowned, looked at Ivan with dissatisfaction and said "Shut up".
If it weren't for the fact that everyone knew each other and was quite familiar with each other, Basil, who was so impatient, would really have a quarrel with Ivan.
Ivan closed his mouth silently.
I don't know what made him angry, but Ivan's temper is no longer easily flared up. In addition, he feels guilty, so he dares not say a word.
Lin Jiu felt a bit of a headache after hearing what they said, so he said, "I'll just go in and take a look. I'll come out if I feel uncomfortable."
After saying that, Lin Jiu's eyes rolled and he suddenly smiled cunningly.
"You can't stop me anyway," he snorted.
Ivan/Basil:.......
what to do.
What he said makes a lot of sense.
What on earth were we both arguing about before?
Seeing the two of them in silence, Lin Jiu smiled with satisfaction.
"Don't worry about me. I'm the one who should be worried." Lin Jiu glanced at the team preparing to evacuate and said, "You guys should evacuate as soon as possible. I have a feeling this dungeon is almost over."
Ivan and Basil were still a little worried, but after thinking about it carefully, they realized that it was indeed they who were in a more dangerous situation after Lin Jiu left the team.
"Okay...then be careful." Ivan compromised first.
Basil frowned, and although he was still worried, he could only nod.
After all, Lin Jiu was looking at him straight, waiting for his expression.
Time waits for no one, so Lin Jiu left quickly. Ivan and Basil walked at the end of the team, looking back at Lin Jiu's back from time to time.
The latter noticed something and shouted in the channel:
"Don't look at me. If you fall, I'll laugh at you until you die."
Ivan/Basil:........
After hearing this, the two of them were speechless and wanted to laugh.
By the way, is this really the atmosphere one should have in a dangerous area?
Lin Jiu didn't know what the two were thinking.
Hao Chengyue's position was a little far away, but not near the void rift, but on the edge of the central area.
But it's enough.
Looking at the motionless coordinates, Lin Jiu couldn't help but frown.
Could he be dead?
Unless the machine is destroyed, the coordinate point will not disappear easily. Hao Chengyue did not move for several minutes, so it was not surprising that Lin Jiu had this idea.
The closer to the center, the more dangerous it is. Even without the help of machines, Lin Jiu can feel the increasing concentration of pollution.
Take a look at the corpses on the ground, and you will find that two or three out of ten will have curse marks on them.
This place is also quite deadly for weirdness.
Not to mention the dangerous polluting creatures and strange creatures running out of the void cracks.
If you tell Lin Jiu now, he won’t be surprised if Hao Chengyue dies.
Zhou Kai and his companions in the outer area were facing a death risk of over 60%, not to mention Hao Chengyue in the inner area.
Just when Lin Jiu was wondering whether Hao Chengyue was dead or not, a communication popped up.
Lin Jiu answered the call subconsciously, and then found that the communication invitation was sent by Hao Chengyue.
He is still alive.
Listening to Hao Chengyue's cursing voice in the communicator, Lin Jiu thought.
Jiang Wan directly assigned Lin Jiu to Hao Chengyue's task. Hao Chengyue probably received the prompt, so he contacted him.
"Why the hell were you assigned to this mission?! Get to the safe zone right now! The pollution wave is about to end!" Hao Chengyue's voice was a bit deafening.
The number of peripheral tasks is indeed decreasing.
According to the system's real-time monitoring, the pollution values in the outermost area are gradually decreasing and will soon be within the normal range.
The command center even displayed the estimated countdown to the end of the pollution wave on everyone's helmet.
Exactly half an hour.
Oh, it's twenty-nine minutes now.
Lin Jiu's attention was obviously not focused on Hao Chengyue's words. At this moment, he was besieged by polluted creatures and was killing them with a dagger in his hand.
At this moment, Hao Chengyue's voice suddenly rose: "Fuck! Why can't I cancel your action!?"
After hearing this, Lin Jiucai spoke: "Ms. Jiang Wan has increased my authority."
"Good boy, you're not mute anymore." Hao Chengyue seemed very angry and spoke with a bit of sarcasm, but he soon realized something was wrong. "Jiang Wan? Why did she increase your authority? Isn't this crazy? Hurry and return the mission!"
Lin Jiu ignored Hao Chengyue's doubts.
"I don't want it," he said.
Only then did he remember that he still had grenades in his space, and Lin Jiu threw out two in succession.
The huge explosion briefly and coincidentally covered up Hao Chengyue's curses.
"Sorry, Captain Hao, the signal is a bit poor. I'll hang up first."
Seeing that Hao Chengyue still had time to scold him, Lin Jiu cut off the call.
However, he did not block Hao Chengyue's communication signal to avoid any accidents.
Unexpectedly, Hao Chengyue didn't call again.
But think about it, he is still on a mission, even if he is temporarily safe, he still needs to be vigilant at all times.
Lin Jiu kicked away the corpse of the contaminated creature in front of him and continued to move towards the coordinate point.
The deeper they went into the pollution zone, the higher the pollution value became. Lin Jiu felt that the alarm was too noisy, so he turned it off directly.
Lin Jiu didn't feel anything different from usual.
Still as cool as ever.
This reminded Lin Jiu of the first time he absorbed the black mist.
That feels really good.
Lin Jiu walked among the ruins. The polluting organisms gradually decreased, but the quiet environment made people feel uneasy.
Suddenly, it seemed as if someone was talking in my ear.
But when Lin Jiu looked back, there was nothing.
There was no response from the detection radar either.
Lin Jiu gripped the rifle tightly in his hand and quickened his pace slightly.
Nothing happened after passing through this ruin.
But when Lin Jiu arrived at the open space, several strange wolf-shaped creatures suddenly appeared around him.
It seems that because of the void rifts, there are mostly strange creatures in the depths of the pollution tide, and the polluted creatures are concentrated in the outer area.
Unlike unintelligent creatures that only attack with brute force, intelligent creatures use tactics.
This is also the terrifying thing about intelligent creatures.
Lin Jiu realized that it would be difficult to deal with these strange wolf-shaped creatures with a gun alone, so he put the rifle behind his back and drew out the dagger again.
A low growl came from the throat of the strange creature, and the first to attack was the one blocking Lin Jiu's side and rear.
Lin Jiu turned his head and leaned back, easily avoiding the attack of the sharp claws. While dodging, he raised his hand and cut off the claws of the strange creature at a speed that left an afterimage.
The already sharp dagger became even more terrifying under Lin Jiu's terrifying strength.
Lin Jiu did not give the strange creature that attacked first a chance to retreat. He reached out and grabbed the wolf's neck, turned around and kicked the wolf several meters away.
Before the wolf in his hand could struggle frantically, Lin Jiu pressed it to the ground and directly strangled its neck.
With a "click" sound.
Very crispy.
