Chapter 296 Poisonous Scorpion

Meng Chao walked around the vegetable market with great interest.

All kinds of visceral materials of highly poisonous monsters that are difficult to find elsewhere greatly satisfied his curiosity as a reaper.

After shopping around, Lu Siya also appeared at the entrance of the vegetable market.

However, Meng Chao was slightly taken aback by her attire.

Ponytail, peaked cap, sportswear and basketball shoes, just like a college student who doesn't wear makeup.

Speaking of which, Lu Siya was only in her twenties.

But she usually wears heavy makeup and looks like a shrewd and capable woman, which often gives Meng Chao the illusion of being too mature.

Seeing such a youthful and beautiful Lu Siya at first glance, Meng Chao blinked for a long time before he dared to speak.

"Sister Ya, you are..."

"Golden Tooth Nest City is full of fish and dragons. Dressing a little more low-key can avoid a lot of trouble." Lu Siya explained.

Meng Chao really wanted to say, "So you know what 'low-key' is!"

After thinking about it, she didn't say anything, but looked behind Lu Siya: "Where are the elite soldiers from the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau?"

"They entered by another entrance."

Lu Siya looked at Meng Chao with piercing eyes, "Don't worry, I have a miniature camera and a signal transmitter on my body, and I can contact the big troops at any time. As long as I can lock the target, I will definitely be able to control the situation. Don't talk so much, go in! "

The two walked through the vegetable market.

Then I walked into a supermarket under the high-rise residence.

Passing through rows of labyrinth-like shelves, passing through the corridors of the two basement floors, and then going up, a small courtyard suddenly opened up in front of my eyes.

Surrounded by towering old residential buildings.

The windows are extremely small and densely opened. At first glance, it really looks like a concrete honeycomb. One cannot help thinking about how small and cramped the living space behind the windows is.

Only by raising your head at ninety degrees can you see a small piece of gray sky from an almost vertical direction.

Countless pairs of eyes looked curiously, indifferently, or gloomily at the people in the courtyard.

With an expressionless face, he was like a prisoner released from the wind.

This is Hive City.

Meng Chao had never been to Nest City before.

Although there is no law to forcibly isolate Hive City from the outside world.

But Hive City is the last symbol of the dark, bloody, lawless era decades ago.

Many citizens who struggled hard from that era and finally moved out of Chaocheng, and moved to public rental housing complexes such as "Tianfuyuan", would repeatedly warn their children not to come to Chaocheng, otherwise they "will learn bad things".

Meng Chao remembered that when he was in junior high school, there were a few ignorant gangsters in his class, and they were indeed proud of "going to Nest City". In the circle, after eating a "Hundred Poison Feast", it can be used as a talking point for more than a month.

Looking at the labyrinth-like buildings with forked paths ahead, Meng Chao was at a loss for what to do for a while.

However, Lu Siya had already contacted the people in Nest City.

"Miss?"

Soon, a young man with a vivid double-tailed poisonous scorpion tattooed on his arm appeared in the courtyard and bowed slightly to Lu Siya.

This is no ordinary tattoo.

It's the logo of the gang.

In that bloody era where zombies were rampant, order collapsed, and the weak preyed on the strong, the survivors naturally formed various forms of groups in order to protect themselves.

In order to compete for precious water, food, energy and living space... various resources, almost every surviving group controls powerful force, and in various ways, determines and strengthens the loyalty of group members.

This is where gangs come from.

With the development of the times, some gangs are getting bigger and more successful, and the gang leaders control a lot of resources, so as to release the genetic shackles, hit the limit of life, and become a supernatural being with a clear mind and controllable use of spiritual power. , and upgraded his gangs into various companies, enterprises and organizations.

In the end, under the witness of "War God" Lei Zongchao, the nine major companies signed a peace agreement, drafted new laws, restored order in Dragon City, and ushered in a new era.

And many small and medium-sized gangs were either gradually annexed by the super corporations headed by the nine major companies, or disappeared or collapsed.

Today, more than 90% of the area in Dragon City, it is rare to see the appearance of these tattoos.

Only three hive cities, and these ancient groups of survivors, sustain the last of the activity.

Qingtian Group started from the mining industry.

No matter when and where, those who can enjoy the benefits of mining will not be good men and women.

Qingtian Group was able to excavate the earliest spar veins discovered in Longcheng decades ago, so it is naturally inextricably linked with various gangs.

To this day, it is still a routine operation of super enterprises to secretly support many gangs in Hive City.

Therefore, this sturdy man with gang tattoos on his arm was quite respectful towards Lu Siya.

"It's been checked."

The man with the poisonous scorpion tattoo said, "The Jin Yongqiang you are talking about has always liked to gamble at the 'Black Blood Arena' in the eastern district of Golden Tooth Nest City. All of them were paid off in time. Until the beginning of this year, he seemed to have lost a lot. He borrowed a large sum of money from 'Yifu Finance', and the interest rate has rolled into astronomical figures.

"Yifu Financial has a good relationship with our 'Poisonous Scorpion Gang'. I have already greeted you just now. If you go directly, you should be able to find out more detailed information."

"very good."

Lu Siya nodded in satisfaction, "Then lead the way!"

The man with the poisonous scorpion tattoo led the way.

Meng Chao and Lu Siya walked on the winding cobweb path in Golden Tooth Nest City with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

The buildings on both sides are all illegal constructions, maybe only seven or eight floors at first, but they were frantically added to twenty or thirty floors, crooked, as if they were about to collide.

For reinforcement, various patches were put on, and steel beams and columns were inserted obliquely. Many steel pipes were crooked by the roof of the building, and Meng Chao was terrified to see it.

The deeper you go into Golden Tooth Nest City, the more you can smell an extremely unique smell.

It was the smell of cooking the poisonous innards of monsters, mixed with low-quality perfume, plus the smell of sweat and hormones, as well as the bloody smell of monsters or humans, and the smell of heather. It was an extremely weird smell. .

Monster fighting is really popular here.

Along the way, Meng Chao had already seen hundreds of posters of various underground arenas.

There are also large screens hanging high on the facade of the building, which repeatedly play the scenes of deformed and ugly mutant monsters biting each other and pulling out each other's internal organs. The scale is far larger than that of official gladiatorial fights.

There are also a lot of young people with nothing to do, staggering around in the streets and alleys, most of them have holographic imaging devices on their heads, and they can see the scene of monster wrestling in person—they are all poor, and they can’t even afford the cheapest tickets The only way to live a dry addiction is to use this method.

There are also many guys with dragons and phoenixes painted on their bodies and even their faces, secretly spying on Meng Chao and Lu Siya, two newcomers whose temperament is incompatible with this place.

However, after seeing the twin-tailed poisonous scorpion tattoo on the leader's arm, he retracted his head again.

"I really didn't expect that there is such a place in Dragon City."

Meng Chao couldn't help sighing, "Comparing this, I'm actually quite happy. Although Tianfuyuan is dilapidated, it is in good order. The neighbors in the neighborhood have at least one regular job, and the children can receive compulsory education, even if the teaching level is slightly inferior. A little, but also to meet the basic needs.

"Of course, the existence of Nest City is just a helpless compromise. Once Dragon City has enough space and resources, the reconstruction of Nest City must be vigorously promoted. Otherwise, this is a time bomb buried inside Dragon City. When encountering a more powerful enemy, the future of Dragon City will be blown to pieces in minutes."

Thinking of this, Meng Chao couldn't help but concentrate, looking for the ending of Nest City in the memory fragments of his previous life.

Accompanied by a faint stabbing pain, the nest city in front of me seemed to be ignited with raging flames, screaming, chaos, and explosions. Countless people fled to the outside of the nest city crying, the building collapsed, and the smoke and dust filled the air. The transcendents all shot towards the entire dragon city like a demon star who had broken the seal.

"hiss……"

Meng Chao covered his chest, took a deep breath, and gradually calmed down his beating heart like a drum.

Dragon City in the previous life didn't seem to properly handle the nest city problem.

Instead, there was a catastrophe with countless casualties.

Added a bit of uncertainty to the ending of "Monster War".

It also made mankind pay a more tragic price, and barely won the victory of the war, but it also sounded the death knell of the approaching end.

"how so?

"That's right, Dragon City in the previous life didn't win the northern offensive, so it didn't have enough resources and space to solve the problem of Nest City.

"When monsters with outstanding intelligence appear, it's hard not to cause some trouble if we just go to the hive city with such a dense population and such a chaotic environment.

"In this world, we have changed the ending of the northern line offensive. The next major development of the northern line will provide a large number of jobs, and will also bring a steady stream of funds to the Survival Committee. We can prepare a more adequate budget for the reconstruction of the nest city. , Can the disaster be avoided?"

As Meng Chao thought about it, the strong man with the double-tailed poisonous scorpion tattoo in front of him stopped.

They came to the doorway of a crooked ten-story illegal building, and then followed the narrow steps into the basement.

A dim neon light distorted into the words "Yi Fu Finance".

The burly man with tattoos went in first to chat.

Meng Chao asked Lu Siya in a low voice: "Don't you use your red envelope tactics?"

"Need not."

Lu Siya also replied in a low voice, "The people here are dogs who can't get enough to eat. If you give out red envelopes, they will only think that you are stupid and have a lot of money. This guy is the little leader of the poisonous scorpion gang. The poisonous scorpion gang is in Golden Tooth Nest City Here, second only to the Golden Tooth Gang, words still have a lot of weight."
