Chapter 26
Old Tang couldn't help but be distracted when he saw her smile. Seeing her put away her gun, he became even more excited, as if he saw the supplies waving before him. "That's right, that's right. If you continue to resist, you will only get your bones smashed. Don't be impulsive, young man!"
"Then I'd like to thank you sincerely on behalf of the child in this bag and the people you bullied."
Liu Xia quickly reached forward with both hands and grabbed the mechanical leg embedded in the steel plate. The smile on his face did not stop. He grabbed it and pulled hard, and saw that the mechanical leg that Lao Tang had been trying to pull off for a long time was torn off directly.
Black mechanical fuel and blue coolant spurted out of the pipes, mixing into a strange inky blue color. The broken lines flashed bright flames amid the crackling sounds.
All this happened in a flash. Some waiters who were farther away had not even gotten close when they saw a mechanical leg weighing over a hundred pounds being swung away like a stick and hitting them on the head, knocking over nearby diners.
The hot pot soup mixed with the ingredients and the diners' screams made the scene even more chaotic.
Old Tang, whose mechanical leg had been removed, became increasingly frantic. He relied on one leg to support himself and avoid falling. He no longer spared the bullets in his gun and began to pull the trigger frantically, shouting crazily: "You are crazy, you must be crazy!!!"
Liu Xia was too lazy to reply to him. He just said "hmm" perfunctorily and swung the steel plate in his hand and nailed it hard into Lao Tang's chest.
Large amounts of black blood and internal organ fragments continued to flow out of Lao Tang's chest, mouth and nose. This was the reaction of a broken heart. Due to the long-term use of cheap mechanical prostheses, Lao Tang's blood inevitably changed from bright red to a somewhat black color, which was the color of motor oil.
The lower half of the corpse slowly slid down, and the intestines and broken internal organs scattered all over the floor, leaving only the upper body and the table still standing firmly on the wall of the private room, like an impromptu post-wasteland painting.
The waiters who had originally rushed forward to attack were frightened by Liu Xia's ferocity and chose not to get closer. They used the surrounding buildings as cover and fired cold shots.
"Bang bang bang!" Gunshots rang out continuously, heading towards Liu Xia's position, but some waiters were too far away to aim accurately, making these threats no pressure at all for Liu Xia.
Some diners were still watching the fun, while some guests had already left the second floor early.
"Click, click!" The sound of mechanical chains stirring suddenly began to ring around the room. Four huge steel plates slid down from the windows, gradually wrapping the entire restaurant into an iron cage.
At this moment, all the light tubes originally used for lighting suddenly went out.
"Sister Xia, Sister Xia." He Tianlin's voice came from the communicator, "There seems to be a laboratory on the third floor, but I seem to be trapped and can't get out."
Four huge machine guns popped up from the four corners. Only when the sound of bullets being loaded was heard did the diners who had not left yet come to their senses from watching the fun and shouted at the waiter to open the machine gun and let them out.
However, in the darkness, the waiters seemed to have suddenly disappeared from the face of the earth, and there was no sound at all. No matter how the diners who did not leave shouted, they did not say a word.
“Da da da da!!!”
After the machine gun was loaded with bullets, it began to spit out four tongues of fire that continuously swept all positions on the second floor. The bullets continuously produced sparks due to friction, which briefly stayed on the faces of everyone in the room like fleeting meteors. The diners' screams echoed in the space one after another.
"Help..." Before the complete cry for help came out from the mouth of the woman wearing an orange satin radiation-proof shawl, a bullet pierced her throat. Blood and flesh fragments mixed in her throat flowed out of her throat, and she fell to the ground, holding her throat.
The four machine guns fired for five minutes until there was no sound in the room. The smell of gunpowder mixed with the strong smell of blood filled the air. When you smelled carefully, you could faintly smell the aroma of barbecue and hot pot.
The alloy steel plate between the second and third floors had been artificially split in half, and the cross section had been violently torn into fibers. Although this piece of alloy was obviously different from the cheap second-hand ones in the restaurant, it still could not escape the fate of being torn and lying alone on the stairs.
He Tianlin used the cold light stick to illuminate the surroundings and said in confusion, "The only thing in the dungeon that can use this kind of metal for protection is the honeycomb. Ji Tao is just a restaurant owner from a garbage dump. How could he possibly have gotten such a good thing, especially a piece this big!"
Liu Xia's vision had a qualitative leap after absorbing the core of the mutant queen ant. She no longer needed ordinary lighting to see clearly in the dark environment. This was why she was able to grope her way to the third floor in the dark in the first time.
Perhaps it is because the mutant ants are born with an advantage in vision. Not only can they see at night, but they also have the ability to capture dynamic vision to a certain extent. Even the trajectory of the bullet can be slowed down a bit in their eyes.
She was already alert when she started to fall from the alloy steel plate. Even the waiters who knew where to hide were killed by machine gun fire because they did not have time to dodge due to the sudden darkness.
The defense mechanism inside this gourmet restaurant is more dangerous than expected.
Liu Xia looked around on the third floor and saw only a huge desk and a sofa for resting. She couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Xiao He, where is the laboratory you just mentioned?"
"Sister Xia, be mentally prepared."
He Tianlin's expression was somewhat grim. He reminded Liu Xia in an uncharacteristically awkward manner, then walked to the wall behind his desk and pointed to an open partition in the corner. He exhaled nervously, "It's in here."
Only then did Liu Xia notice that there was a dark partition where He Tianlin's finger was, and the partition was opened to a gap that was only wide enough for one person to pass through.
It turns out that this place has a special space. No wonder it feels a lot smaller than the space downstairs. It's just because there is no light here and you can't see your hand in front of you. Even if you have night vision, it's difficult to notice a small gap if you don't look carefully.
As soon as Liu Xia walked near the partition, he was almost taken a step back by the foul smell that hit him in the face.
Looking inside from the gap, you can see five steps leading upwards. The original gray stone color of the cement soil is no longer visible now, and each step is covered with a layer of sticky black substance.
With every step he took, a few strands of hair would stick to the soles of his boots, the ends of the hair still attached to his festering scalp, and the foul smell came from this.
