Chapter 1212 Suspicion

Since he had never been able to see any of the maintenance workers on the chain, Han Dong asked the situation privately through voice transmission.

"Miss Chen, what exactly does the [lock worker] at the bottom do?"

"I don't know either... Maybe you can find out if you go down there.

I only know that some zombies who fail the city entry test or commit serious crimes will be demoted to locksmiths and sent directly to the bottom by dragon boats. What they will do is unknown. "

Such an answer surprised Han Dong for a moment.

Lockwork is a kind of person who does not even have the qualifications to live, the lowest level of rigidity... Longjing alchemist, who is in a high position, does not know what this lowest level of labor does.

No matter what kind of social system it is placed in, it does not make sense.

"Well, I hope to find the answer below."

It took a full hour to descend vertically before finally seeing the ground area.

"Is that... barracks?"

From the position where the chain fell as the center, it radiates one kilometer outward.

A barracks comparable to the size of a certain sub-division of the Corpse Kingdom was built - an all-metal barracks created with the highest technology, like a huge fortress, impregnable.

Also note that.

In addition to the main heart chain corresponding to the corpse country, the chains corresponding to the surrounding floating islands are also connected to the area near the barracks, with a distance of no more than 500 meters at most.

Inside the barracks, there is also an airport about 100 meters high, dedicated to receiving dragon boats carrying "lock workers".

When everyone arrives at the barracks.

The military academy explained the situation to the person in charge here. Chen Xinying, a special visitor, was no longer subject to any restraints, and could move freely or even leave the barracks at will to go to the demon realm.

Weirdly enough.

Even though he was in the barracks, Han Dong still did not find any zombies who were suspected to be locked workers.

It seems that after the dragon boat carried them to the barracks, they were sent directly to a certain area for work through a special channel, and they would not appear in the barracks at all.

At the same time, according to Han Dong's observation, the "features" of the [barracks] are also in full view.

Not all those who operate in the barracks area are soldiers who obey the management of the Ministry of War and need to suppress a monster somewhere.

There are also quite a few 'freemen' who belong to the Ministry of War... to be precise, they should be a group of 'businessmen'.

From the business circle in the barracks, it can be clearly seen that this kind of 'businessmen' who came to the following by the identity of the Ministry of War is very strong.

Merchants are roughly divided into two categories.

1. "Hunters": This group is good at restraint, and usually uses the method of live capture to bring back some monster cubs, or mounts that are easy to tame, and even humanoid monsters that can be sold at high prices in the slave market.

2. "Treasure hunters": This group is often powerful, and there is at least one black zombie in charge.

It is mainly responsible for killing rare monsters, dismantling their whole bodies and selling them separately, such as fur, teeth, eyeballs, etc., or going to the more dangerous monster dens to find treasures in them.

Since the Ministry of War is in charge of everything here, the Ministry of War will naturally get a share of any 'commodity' produced, resulting in items related to monsters in the corpse country being relatively expensive.

...

Chen Xinying soon met with the acquaintances she talked about earlier.

This 'acquaintance' also holds a certain position in the barracks, responsible for the management and supply of military salaries, and belongs to the reserve worker... Although he is relatively leisurely, he can often inquire about some front-line information.

After a simple exchange.

The other party directly gave a relatively rough map, marking the location of the incident.

The information comes from a treasure hunt team.

This team originally identified a hidden monster cave, and when they were going to search for the treasures in it... they found that the monsters in the lair were basically dead, and they all died from freezing without exception.

The demon cave is about 130 miles away from the barracks, in the gully of the West Ridge Mountain.

"Miss Chen, do you need help?

I can arrange a good treasure hunt team for you here. Anyway, your purpose is to capture ['Frozen Bone' Luo Gaocheng], they only need to get the secret treasure in the demon cave. "

"No, I want to solve this by myself,

Just help us prepare a vehicle. "

"Fine."

Soon.

A steam-powered coffin car drove out from the barracks.

The so-called coffin car is a steam-powered car with a carriage in the shape of a coffin. The yin qi diffused in the car can keep the stiff person in the best condition during the ride.

Han Dong, who was sleeping in the coffin car, looked puzzled and said softly:

"The so-called demon realm is not as dangerous as imagined.

The all-metal barracks facing the chain was impregnable, and the soldiers guarding the outer perimeter of the barracks did not show any nervous expressions, but were rather limited.

It is enough to show that the barracks are basically not attacked by monsters.

Not to mention, the Ministry of War also monopolized "monster beast goods" through privileges, allowing a large number of teams to go out to hunt for treasures.

This is completely inconsistent with the "deeds of the corpse country" that I have heard.

I remember Zhang Xiliang, you said, 'Because of the threat from monsters, human beings are forced to carry out the "Dead Corpse Order" and "Corpse Country Reform"? Let the city-state and surrounding islands float in the air to avoid the threat of monsters'"

Zhang Xiliang, who was also lying in the coffin car, immediately responded: "Mr. Han? This is what I heard since I was a child... Besides, all the residents of the country know about the corpse."

Chen Xinying, who was with her, also nodded? Surely this statement.

"I heard it since I was a child? Everyone knows it?

So where did you hear it as a kid? Elder... Or is this concept engraved in my head from the very beginning? "

Han Dong's words stunned the two of them.

When Zhang Xiliang tried to recall? He always felt that the worldview in his head always seemed to exist? It was born with consciousness.

"Perhaps when you had a corpse transformation, related concepts were implanted in your brains... Of course, it's just my guess? Don't take it to heart.

Let's focus on the felon hunt. "

Due to the particularity of the coffin car, there is no obstruction along the way.

Arriving at the ravine marked on the map, there is not even a so-called [demon] nearby.

The entrance to the cave is filled with rocks and is airtight.

A stack of white rune papers was thrown from Chen Xinying's hands. When the rune paper was attached to the surface of the rock? These heavy and huge rocks immediately became lighter than plastic? They could be easily removed with the strength of an ordinary person.

As the rock that blocked the hole was removed? The biting cold wind immediately overflowed from the inside? Even a few ice crystals formed on the body.

This indirectly increased the possibility of 'frozen bones' Luo Gaocheng hiding inside.

When feeling the chill, an inexplicable expression of hatred appeared on Chen Xinying's face, and she could only suppress her emotions through cigarettes.

Han Dong also noticed this change in expression, but never asked Chen Xinying's 'reason for hatred'.

"so smart!?"

As soon as he stepped into the demon cave, even Han Dong was stunned.

The inside of the cave is like an ice cellar. The surface of the rock formations is covered with a layer of ice crystals of different thicknesses. The monsters who once lived here were also completely frozen and turned into part of the cave.

"This guy really got stronger again..."
