The Scavengers

Chapter 48: Recycling the Gold Eating Mother Beetle XVI: Completing the Mission and Upgrading

Xiao Mo turned his back and covered up the smile on his mouth. It was hard to feel annoyed with this kind of Nth Generation of the army.

“You can forecast the weather? Did you foresee this earthquake? ” Xue Li Hong finally spoke to Qiu Xin.

Qiu Xin hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Xue Li Hong’s eyes that were like a dead man, he was so scared that he immediately called out: “I knew about it half an hour in advance.”

“Only half an hour?” Xue Li Hong did not seemed to doubt Qiu Xin’s ability to predict the weather. He only seemed to be doubting Qiu Xin’s low level.

“The earthquake this time is really strange. Generally, the earthquake is caused by the crustal movement. The surrounding area is affected, and it will be affected slowly, and this process is usually really spread out. Generally, earthquake prediction can be predicted in advance. Once I went to the mountain area, I predicted that there would be an earthquake nearby two days in advance, but this time… Not only is the source of the earthquake nearer, but there wasn’t any known signs in advance; it happened all so suddenly! It’s really strange! “

Qiu Xin said in frustration: “I also called to inform my old man, but the time was too short for him to make some preparations.”

Xue Li Hong was thinking, no one know what he is thinking.

Qiu Xin breathed out in secret. He was surprised that these two people didn’t ask him why he can predict the weather, it was as if they weren’t surprised at his special skill at all.

“Xb?”

“Really! I swear!”

“Tell me your father’s satellite number.” Xue Li Hong said.

“Oh.” Qiu Xin saw Xue Li Hong talking to him, so he immediately obediently reported a series of numbers.

Xue Li Hong didn’t immediately connect with Qiu Feng, but said to Xiao Mo, “Bring him in.”

Xiao Mo looked at Qiu Xin.

Qiu Xin raised his hands and vowed that he would follow them obediently and never run away.

“You can run. Didn’t you say you escaped from the kidnappers twice before? You can try to get out of my hands for a third time.”

Qiu Xin’s legs were soft. He grabbed Xiao Mo’s arm and cried: “Oh, Oh! Great Hero, how terrible! I lied to you. I’ve never been kidnapped. Oh, I won’t run away. I swear I will never run away! “

No one was watching, and there were no CCTVs nearby, so Xiao Mo climbed on the top of the car, stepping on the car and jumped over the wall into the school.

Qiu Xin is the second one to jump in.

As for Xue Li Hong… he just tapped his leg and jump right into the school!

The campus was very big, but with Xiao Mo’s navigating map, they soon found the experimental building with the helicopter that crashed into it.

Qiu Xin didn’t know what they were doing here, but he didn’t dare to ask more, so he followed them honestly.

“They’re under the building?” Xiao Mo heard the system prompts, looking at his brain’s three-dimensional map, surprised.

“Basement?”

“No, it seems to be deeper. Strange… “Xiao Mo stepped forward.

Xue Li Hong looked around and followed the two people in front.

“Brother Xiao, there was a gun fight here! There is still a lot of blood in the surroundings.

Qiu Xin did not say, Xiao Mo has also seen.

It looks worse inside than outside.

Xue Li Hong takes out a pistol, opens the safety bolt and hands it to Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo took it silently. He didn’t dare to put his finger on the trigger for fear of hitting by mistake.

Qiu Xin was not surprised to see that they have guns. They were mercenaries after all. Let alone guns, he was not surprised if they had missiles.

“What is that? Corpses? ” Qiu Xin suddenly jumped with fright. He was a civilized man and rejected all violence! And he’s never seen a real body before!

“Shut up!” Xue Li Hong patted Xiao Mo on the shoulder and made a light step gesture to him.

Xiao Mo understood, and his steps slowed down and his feet were very light.

Qiu Xin also began to walk carefully.

On the stairway to the underground floor, they saw more than one body.

And most of these bodies looked like they had been dehydrated.

The bodies consisted of a mix of school workers, students and soldiers.

“So, what’s going on here?” Qiu Xin asked in a trembling voice.

Xiao Mo turned back and put his fingers on his lips.

Qiu Xin quickly shut up.

Because of the poor sight, Xiao Mo took out the miner’s lamp from his backpack. He originally wanted to give Xue Li Hong one, but Xue Li Hong shook his hand to show that he did not need it.

Xiao Mo then gave Qiu Xin the extra head mounted miner’s lamp.

Qiu Xin wore the lamp and looked at Xue Li Hong with admiration and fear. In such a dark place, he did not even need a lamp.

Xue Li Hong looked at him.

Qiu Xin was so scared that he almost screamed out. Xue Li Hong’s red eyes were shining green like a wild animal!

No, it’s an illusion. It must be an illusion!

Qiu Xin followed Xiao Mo closely and did not dare to stagger.

Most of the underground floors of the experimental building were mechanical and electrical rooms and warehouses, and there was only one floor.

But when Xiao Mo looked at the map in his brain, it showed that the Gold Eating Mother Beetle was obviously in the lower part of the building.

How many meters is the vertical distance from the target? ” Xiao Mo asked the system in his brain.

“The vertical distance is 30 meters.”

That’s deep! That’s almost the height of a ten-story building.

Xiao Mo turned his head to look at Xue Li Hong and reports the data to him in a low voice.

When Xiao Mo looked at him, there was no change in the young man’s eyes, but it seemed that there was some reflection, but Xiao Mo didn’t pay much attention to it.

Xue Li Hong grabs him and turned to walk in front of him, letting Xiao Mo and Qiu Xin walk behind him side by side.

Xiao Mo took the initiative to take care of their backs.

They knew that this kind of school building should not have such a deep underground building at all. For the Gold Eating Mother Beetle to be in such a deep place, coupled with the several corpses littered along the way, added with signs of gunfights and burn marks, indicated that the thing that they would soon encounter below would not be pleasant in any way.

In the middle of the walk, the three found a large warehouse and a big hole in the warehouse that looked very deep.

“Do you want to go down? I feel hairy all over, and I feel very wrong. ” Xiao Mo whispered to Xue Li Hong.

“There are people down there.” Xue Li Hong replied.

“You mean Qian Yun Kai and Wang Cheng are already down there?”

“There are more than two.” Xue Li Hong went to the cave and seemed to plan to jump like this.

Suddenly, the Gold eating Mother Beetle was moving, and it was moving fast!

Xiao Mo puzzled, immediately quietly called Xue Li Hong, “Qian Yun Kai and Wang Cheng might be bring the target up.”

Xue Li Hong immediately pulls Xiao Mo aside and kicks Qiu Xin to the opposite corner.

Qiu Xin didn’t even dare to cry. He didn’t dare to move in the corner.

Xiao Mo turned off the miner’s lamp in time, but Qiu Xin didn’t.

Xiao Mo just wants to remind Qiu Xin to turn off the miner’s lamp, and a figure has quickly climbed up in the cave.

The man holding the flashlight in his mouth. When he came up and saw the light nearby, his first reaction was to hold the gun and aim at it.

“Wang Cheng!” Xiao Mo recognized the man.

Wang Cheng turns around; the light of the flashlight shines out the two people in the dark corner.

“Xiao Mo?” Wang Cheng was surprised. “It’s great that you can come here! I was just going to come up and get help! “

Xiao Mo turns on the miner’s lamp and goes to Wang Cheng, “what’s the matter? Is something wrong with Doctor Qian? “

“No, it’s not Yun Kai, there are three soldiers. Wait a minute, I must find a rope. Three soldiers are injured, two of them are still seriously injured. The hole is too steep, and there is a sneak attack of Large Winged Mosquito, we can’t bring them up. “

“Is this the nest of the blood mosquito?” Xue Li Hong came out of the darkness.

“Very likely. However, we have blown up the main caves below, and their troops can’t get out for a while. At present, only a few of them are cruising nearby and attacking us secretly. “

“I just saw a fire hose nearby. Maybe we can use it instead of rope?” Xiao Mo reminds them.

“Great!” Wang Cheng ran to find the fire hose according to Xiao Mo’s direction, but before raising his feet, he took out the glass bottle in his backpack and handed it to Cheng Zhou, “Fortunately, we didn’t fail the mission!”

Xiao Mo solemnly said: “thank you!”

“You go outside and inform the employer to pick up the goods. I’ll go down and have a look.” Xue Li Hong seems to be very interested in the hole.

Xiao Mo nodded, glanced at Qiu Xin and walked out with the glass bottle in his arms.

Qiu Xin wanted to keep up with Xiao Mo, but Xue Li Hong had already jumped down the deep hole whilst holding his collar.

“AHHH!” Qiu Xin screamed in horror.

See Xiao Mo brought the glass bottle upstairs, Wang Cheng although surprised, but did not ask.

Xiao Mo informed Wang Cheng that Xue Li Hong has jumped down the deep hole to help. Wang Cheng was immensely grateful. With Xue Li Hong, the people below will be at least safer. Naturally, Qian Yun Kai did not have to work so hard with such a dependable person around.

Wang Cheng was worried about Qian Yun Kai and the people below. He fixed the fire belt tightly. After testing the firmness of the belt, he grabbed the fire belt and jumped down.

Xiao Mo saw that there was no one nearby, and immediately recovered the last five Gold Eating Mother Beetle.

“Ding, mission target recycled successfully. Xiao Mo, the recycler, will be rewarded. There are three options for this reward. You can choose one of them. Option 1: how to use the first level ability and how to exercise it; Second, to develop one cubic meter of spiritual space; Option 3: Ten first-class standard energy crystals. “

Xiao Mo did not hesitate to choose the first reward option.

“Please note that the use and exercise methods of level 1 abilities can be combined with the training schedule provided by this system. The two complement each other and learning together will be more effective.”

Xiao Mo reply that he understands.

Immediately, a lot of knowledge was forced into his brain.

Xiao Mo held onto the wall beside him. His hands subconsciously pressed on the center of his eyebrows.

So dizzy. He didn’t know how long it had been. As soon as he felt better, he heard the system prompt sounded again.

“Ding, Xiao Mo, the recycler, has completed two tasks at the first level. The system has achieved the upgrade conditions and will enter the upgrade mode within the next ten minutes.”

Xiao Mo suddenly felt an unbearable pain coming from deep inside his brain. He screamed and covered his head and fainted.
