Chapter 1192 The Polluter

After grabbing the box, Zhang Tuohai turned around and ran away without even looking carefully.

The robbed court bachelor was stunned.

He wanted to reach out to stop him, but Zhang Tuohai had already disappeared.

Taking three steps at a time, Zhang Tuohai ran back to the White Bird with Elizabeth and Linda.

Only then did Zhang Tuohai have time to study the box in his hand.

The box was the same as the one that was broken before. It was a palm-sized metal box with red runes engraved on it. There was a small hole on one side, and a red eyeball could be seen from inside.

The eyeballs were staring at Zhang Tuohai, and he kept shouting from the box: "Wanted criminal! Here is a wanted criminal from the empire, with a bounty of 100,000 dinars!"

Repeated over and over again, seemingly with no intention of stopping.

Zhang Tuohai took out a knife and pried the box open, trying to open it.

At this time, a cold voice suddenly sounded next to him: "I seem to have seen it before."

Zhang Tuohai turned around suddenly and found Ling, wearing a black windbreaker, standing next to him, a pair of red eyes staring at the metal box in his hand.

"Have you seen this thing?" Zhang Tuohai asked quickly.

"I can't remember clearly, but the breath on it gives me a familiar feeling." Ling paused for a while and said slowly.

"Then take a closer look and see if you can recall anything." Zhang Tuohai handed the box in his hand to Ling.

He didn't have a clue anyway, so it would be great if Zero could think of something.

Zhang Tuohai felt that the zero-energy seal in the pile of crystals must be an extraordinary existence in itself, but now there is no memory and it cannot be developed. Maybe this metal box is a breakthrough.

Zero took the box, and a burst of ice came out of his hand, freezing the box.

The surface of the metal box was covered with a layer of blue frost.

Zero brought the box to his eyes and observed it carefully. After a moment, the box frozen by the ice suddenly cracked into thin ice fragments, which dissipated without a trace under the blow of the sea breeze.

"It's pollutants!" Zero said.

"Pollutants?" Zhang Tuohai raised his eyebrows.

"Well, it's a strange energy that can initially give ordinary items magical abilities, allowing ordinary people to gain extraordinary power. However, using this energy does not come without a price."

"If you use items containing polluted energy for a long time, or are exposed to the radiation of polluted energy, people will degenerate into polluters. The initial polluters will have their minds eroded, unable to think rationally, lose their memory, and can only rely on Act on instinct.”

"All the Contaminated have a common goal, which is to kill all uncontaminated living things."

Zero said.

"Can't think, can only act on instinct, killing uninfected people, it sounds like a zombie." Zhang Tuohai analyzed.

"What about their mobility?" Zhang Tuohai asked.

"It's what it was like before it was contaminated. It won't change. It just loses the sense of pain and won't be afraid of danger." Zero said.

"That's right." Zhang Tuohai nodded, "I just heard you talking about the initial polluter, which means there are subsequent variants?"

"When the pollution concentration increases, level 2 polluters will appear," Ling Liang nodded. "The level 2 polluters will gain physical enhancement. The specific degree of enhancement is related to the contaminated items they come into contact with. At the same time, level 2 polluters will also be used for The IQ of children.”

"Later, there are Level 3 polluters with truly extraordinary abilities and normal IQs, Level 4 polluters who have become crazy and more powerful, Level 5 polluters whose bodies have become gigantic, Level 5 polluters who can control other polluters, and so on."

"So many?" Zhang Tuohai was speechless.

"Well, I feel like there should be more later, but I can't remember it for a while. Maybe I can remember it when I see more similar things." Zero said while rubbing his temples.

"Then that box just now..."

"A common first-order pollutant." Zero said.

"Is the first level so strong?" Zhang Tuohai opened his mouth wide.

The effect of this thing is already comparable to that of a face recognition device, but it is only at the first level?

What about second- and third-order pollutants?

He didn't even dare to think about it.

"It is indeed only the first level." Zero nodded.

"That's really bad." Zhang Tuohai sighed. He originally thought that with his current strength, he could push back the empire, but now it seems that many variables have been added out of thin air.

"By the way," Zhang Tuohai suddenly thought of a question, "Those lobster soldiers are holding these pollutants. Could they have been subtly contaminated?"

"No, maybe, definitely, they are already here."

Zero pointed into the distance.

Zhang Tuohai looked into the distance and saw a large group of lobster soldiers coming from a distance.

The eyes of these lobster soldiers were full of ferocious looks. They staggered on the streets. They rushed into shops and houses one after another, dragged out civilians who had not been contaminated one by one, and then bit them with their teeth. The hands tore and tore these civilians into pieces.

Then find the next target and repeat the process.

"Sure enough, it has been contaminated. Then we can't keep them."

Zhang Tuohai knows very well that these polluters should be killed once they are discovered, otherwise, if they are allowed to do whatever they want, the entire island will become a dead city.

Zhang Tuohai still needs these cities as a source of supplies and cannot let the cities fall like this.

Zhang Tuohai ran up to the captain's bridge, controlled the cable and began to adjust the direction of the gun, load the shells, and light the match rope.

Boom, boom, boom!

Round after round of shells shot out, shooting towards the lobster soldier polluters in the distance.

Bang bang bang!

Accompanied by bursts of explosions, the lobster soldier polluters were blown to pieces, with flesh and blood flying everywhere.

The polluters that were blown to pieces shook a few times on the ground and then stopped moving.

"It's okay. It will kill you even if it hits a vital point. It's not as perverted as a zombie."

Zhang Tuohai had a general understanding of the strength of these first-order polluters, and then controlled the artillery to carry out covering strikes towards the places where the polluters gathered.

Boom!

The explosion roared and smoke flew everywhere.

Soon, those polluters were almost eliminated.

Zhang Tuohai won the first round.

However, Zhang Tuohai was not happy.

Because what is being killed now is only on the surface. Who knows how many more are hidden secretly? He is sure that there must be more than two such square boxes in the toy island, and this does not include other similar products that may exist.

No one knows how many people on the entire island were contaminated.

With so many polluters, they cannot all be Level 1 polluters. There may also be Level 2 or even Level 3 polluters among them, and they need to be dealt with carefully.

The only thing that makes Zhang Tuohai happy is that an ordinary first-level polluter can actually give two points of experience, which is comparable to the elite soldiers of the empire.

This means it becomes a little easier for him to level up.
