A fruitful harvest
He Tianlin got what he wanted and picked up Liu Xia and Ding Ruotong, and asked Song Xuanzhi to drive a car alone to lead the way. He hummed happily all the way, his voice was clear and clean, and the tune was not unpleasant.
Liu Xia leaned against the cold car window with her eyes closed. The wind rushed in through the gaps in the glass, ruffling the half-long hair on her forehead. Her body swayed from time to time with the shaking of the car. One hand was holding Ding Ruotong, who was sleeping on her legs, to prevent her from slipping off.
They looted most of the supplies on the third floor except for the alcohol. At that time, most of the security personnel were sent by Yu Sisi to kill Liu Xia. Therefore, the resistance forces left on the second floor were unable to organize a strong counterattack after being bombarded, so they left the "Paradise" without much effort.
This time, I not only received system rewards, but also got a large amount of supplies. It can be said that the harvest was quite fruitful.
But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Yu Sisi likely has a lot of supplies left from her long-standing business, and the place will undoubtedly reopen soon. However, the auction for the special program "Eros Bliss" will no longer be available, as Liu Xia has already incinerated all the remaining equipment in the lab.
It was indeed as Song Xuan said. There were no more experimental subjects in the laboratory. Except for the waiter who had taken inhibitors and was still alive, the failed experimental subjects had long been dealt with by Yu Sisi.
Liu Xia recalled that she was taken to the bathroom and attacked by the waiter. She thought it was probably Yu Sisi who instructed her to do that because she lacked experimental subjects. She specifically wanted to capture female guests who were alone to fill the laboratory.
However, this is just her speculation. After all, with the death of Yu Sisi, the human experiment to create the "God of Love" completely disappeared.
Unlike the "Lao Gourmet Restaurant" and "Paradise," the mine, while crucial as a strategic resource for the dungeon, is located in the seventh garbage area, further away from the center and closer to the polluted zone. Mining, after all, is very demanding in terms of location; lead and zinc veins aren't found everywhere.
Precisely because of the importance of the mine, the guards stationed here are not comparable to those in places that are more like entertainment venues. It can be said that except for the beehive in the first area and the water purification plant in the second area, there is no other force in the underground city that can compete with it.
Two human laboratories were destroyed one after another. Even if they were abandoned experimental projects, they would still attract Shen Wanren's attention. This also meant that if Liu Xia wanted to sneak in, he would need to make more careful preparations, otherwise he would be killed if he rushed in.
Now is obviously not a good time to take risks, but Bai Fei’s kidnapping is imminent, and Liu Xia needs to return to the real world as soon as possible to rescue her. She has no time to wait.
After many attempts, she could only get rewards by killing the leader-type garbage. She couldn't even get rewards by killing the level 5 mutant queen ant in the polluted area. In other words, there were no more options for her to choose from.
She has the ability to temporarily change her appearance, and she has already tried it in Paradise. There is no more covert and safer solution than sneaking into the mine herself.
Liu Xia thought about it again and again, and finally said what was in his mind: "Xiao He, I will handle the operation of sneaking into the mine this time by myself. You and Atong stay outside and wait."
The young man, who was originally humming happily, heard this and his fingertips gripping the steering wheel turned red from the force. His happy expression turned a little sad, and even his back bent a little. He asked with uncertainty and caution in his tone: "Sister Xia, am I useless?"
He knew that his abilities were indeed not as good as Song Xuan's who had a military mechanical prosthesis. This was why he was very opposed to Song Xuan getting too close to Liu Xia. He was afraid that one day Liu Xia would think he was useless and leave. He had already tasted the pain of losing Old He and could not accept losing Sister Xia again.
Ever since he found out that Liu Xia and Song Xuan seemed to have known each other since childhood, this worry weighed on his heart like a heavy rock, but he hid this feeling with his usual carefree look.
"You've always been great and helped me a lot." Liu Xia keenly sensed that something was wrong with his mood. She reached out from the back seat of the car, touched He Tianlin's head, and continued, "If it weren't for you, I would have died in the Colosseum long ago."
This was Liu Xia's heartfelt words. When she first recovered the cell boss Iron Tower in the Colosseum, if He Tianlin had not alertly organized the other bullfighters to temporarily block the counterattack, she might have died while her body was unconscious.
In the dim light of the early morning, He Tianlin's furry head glowed with golden light like a big dog. After hearing this, a happy smile unconsciously appeared on the corners of his mouth.
He felt the warmth of Liu Xia's fingers and his heart became less depressed. His originally sluggish speech became more cheerful. "Then I'm quite useful, right? Let me go in with you. What if you suddenly pass out, Sister Xia?"
"Yes, it works." Liu Xia nodded, but his tone remained firm and there was no room for negotiation. "I will find a way to control the time of the coma. If I find something wrong, I will withdraw."
After seeing Liu Xia's serious expression in the rearview mirror, He Tianlin didn't dare to say anything more. He pursed his lips and continued to drive attentively.
Ding Ruotong, who was lying on his legs, moved with a slightly unstable breath, but was quickly calmed down by Liu Xia who noticed it.
…
The car drove forward for about dozens of minutes. He Tianlin followed the car in front and turned into a very hidden street before finally stopping.
Song Xuan parked the car on the side of the road, quickly opened the door and got out, waving at them to indicate that he was here.
The sky should have been bright by now, but due to the radioactive dust, the sky was gray and blocked the sun. The radioactive dust was obviously much more serious than that in the fourth district.
In Yu Sisi's storage warehouse on the third floor, Liu Xia also received a set of red and black well-made protective clothing and protective helmet. Not only were the fabrics of high quality, but the shape was also very beautiful and slim, which did not make people feel bloated. It made Liu Xia's already good figure even more outstanding. I don't know where Yu Sisi got these high-end goods.
In addition to the large-caliber pistol and magazine given by Song Xuansong hanging on his tactical belt, he also carried a Type 56 submachine gun on his back. This gun was stored in a gun cabinet at the time and looked in very good condition. Although it was not a weapon with strong firepower, it just solved Liu Xia's problem of lacking long-range weapons with a large number of bullets.
The three of them reunited. Song Xuan looked at Liu Xia and said, "The mine is five kilometers ahead. We can't go any further. Two cars will make us too conspicuous and will be spotted by Tan Meng's patrolmen."
