Steel Steam and Flame

Chapter 1402: Tasks and seeking clues (part 2)



The latest website: It will be deeper into the long border of the Flame Alliance. The stronghold is located near a small city, but it is generally in the forest of no man’s land. The border areas are mostly dense virgin forests, and mining was ordered very early. To hide a stronghold inside is an inconspicuous thing in theory, but the tricky thing is that there are appointed beast cavalry in the border inspection team, except for the standard equipment of the Flame Alliance. , Strictly trained and sensitive second-class creatures are naturally good investigators. There are several ways to avoid these detective creatures, but they are not necessary and costly.

Sellers all know this, and they have the capital to not have to set up a foothold in these forests. There is never a shortage of courageous buyers. In contrast, putting the base in danger and lowering the price of the goods a little bit can attract a large number of customers. Among them, there are many scalpers. The first and second levels of controlled items are almost extinct in the formal trading centers. If you can get some sources, they will resell them after returning to Larsa. In small quantities, the price will be three or four times higher than that. problem.

After Muriel explained the situation and gave the time and place information of the meeting with several teams, he dragged his tired body back to rest.

Cassia who went back to her room sat down by the window, looked at the black outside the window, and thought about what she could do in the dark in the next action. Keeping the mission process calm and safe, without accidents, ending as quickly as possible, and returning as quickly as possible, is the ideal result in Cassia's mind. As for whether the business can be negotiated smoothly, that is not my business. At best, if there is a chance, Cassia will find the right person among the sellers and ask for information that interests him-where can I find a merchant who provides Class II bioconcentrated blood.

"Strictly trained and sensitive to the second category of creatures." Think of the improved hounds that I have seen at the base of the volcano. Although they are not category second creatures, they show excellent tracking capabilities. But at that time, it was because of the sense of smell that was set a trap, allowing microorganisms to erode all the hounds. Cassia believes that the patrol team of the Flame Alliance will not make low-level mistakes. If you want to deal with these creatures in a targeted manner, the probability of success is very low.

"Nor can we completely pin our hopes on the news that the inspection team passed by the location of the stronghold just before." The inspection team has no restrictions. There are too many variables in their bodies. This kind of news can only be said to be psychological comfort. To deal with danger, it is best to completely eliminate the element of luck. "Then starting from the instinct of the second type of creature, it may be possible to find a relatively safe method."

With Isha and the others beside, Cassia knew that he could not exude his own aura anytime and anywhere to dispel potentially dangerous creatures around him. But when creatures indicate their territory, they usually leave things of their own everywhere, whether they are hair or feces and other detectable odor sources. This type of habit has been passed down and preserved even if it reaches the second-class creatures.

"Blood should be able to play a role." After thinking about this, Cassia remembered that there was a shop selling all kinds of daily necessities next to the hotel. Tomorrow, go there and buy enough small blades. After that, it took half an hour to prepare for tomorrow’s noon departure. The suitcase became a very flexible backpack. It is expected that the 15-day round trip time will be extended. For this reason, Cassia went to Toynby specially. This is true for every task, and there will always be a variety of emergencies.

"Don't worry, you just bring your own things, and the rest, the teams assisting this operation are already ready." Toinby, who knew the specific task flow and division of responsibilities, didn't feel a little nervous.

By noon the next day, Isha and Muriel stepped on time to click out of the room door. After paying for the hotel, the four of them walked across a street to a toll parking lot, got in an ordinary limousine, and started to drive towards the border of the Flame Alliance.

The more you head in this direction, the worse the road conditions. In the afternoon, it is difficult to see such gathering places around, the city is completely lost, and occasionally lifeless villages can be seen. The concrete road turned into a bumpy dirt floor, and further on, the road was just two slight traces rolled by the tires. By the time of the evening, the road has gradually lost its original face, and can only be identified by the height of the grass.

At nine o'clock in the evening, with a "boom" crash, the vehicle was completely declared scrapped. Yisha is the driver of this trip, and it is not clear whether it was driving while thinking, or the reason for not radiating her perception. Relying on sound pulses, Cassia clearly knew that there was a large pit covered by weeds, a natural trap. Even with some linguistic hints, in the end he could only watch Isha bring a group of people and vehicles into the pit. go with.

",,,,,," Neither Toynby nor Muriel said anything. There was an illusion that from the expressions of the two, Cassia felt that this was not the first time this happened to Isha.

With their bags on their backs, the four stood in a row, turned on the bright flashlights first and last, and continued to march towards the border of the Flame Alliance in the waist-deep grass. Rest every three hours, about half an hour. At nine o'clock the next morning, Cassia, who had roughly washed his body in the forest first, felt a lot more relaxed. At least the various pollen and sticky seeds contaminated by walking in the grass for a night would not make people feel good.

Toynby also washed and walked over~www.readwn.com~ to sit down at the root of the big tree opposite Cassia, take out a cigarette and smoke. The surrounding area is slightly dark, and the forest on the plain has a dense form different from that on the mountains, but the darkness under the dense foliage and the air with a slightly decayed smell of dead leaves have not changed.

Cassia calculated that the distance for the team to penetrate into this dense forest was only a few kilometers, but there were already ancient trees surrounded by two or three people everywhere. When Yisha and the others came out, the time went to 9:30 in the morning, and a thin mist spread from the depths of the forest at this moment, with a faint pungent smell, like a certain kind of resin.

"It is the acephate tree. Its resin and fruit are one of the main materials of some anesthetics and hallucinogens. The Flame Alliance has made some improvements to it, resulting in several times stronger anesthetic and hallucinogenic effects. Long-term inhalation will affect it. To all senses." Isha took out a mask from her backpack and handed it to Cassia, "This forest on the border is a man-made result, but because of time, it became a primeval forest. It was the Flame Alliance a long time ago. A natural line of defense created and cultivated for defense."

"There are still a lot of things behind, I will tell you one by one." Isha with the mask said, after looking at the dial on the watch, she pointed in a certain direction, "It's not far, three hours away. You will be able to join the assisting team."
