Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 481 [Chapter Hidden in the Abyss] 25: The Old Sword
After Captain Prosthetic Eye died, the gunfire did not stop.

Captain Prosthetic Eye's miner teammates stood up one after another, and the expedition team had to raise their guns and fire a round of firepower at their heads.

The flames ejected from the muzzle of the gun due to the incomplete combustion of the gunpowder made the entire corridor space flickering and dark, and the sound of densely bursting guns came to the ears through the helmet, like a series of huge dull firecrackers...

After the gunshots, darkness fell again.

Under the light of the searchlight, the people who had just stood up fell down again.

This time their whole heads were smashed and they couldn't get up again.

But this did not delay the dark green [Snake Kiss Plant] continuing to spread along their broken flesh and blood.

Chen Yan saw that [Snake Kiss Plant] was devouring his flesh and blood on the face of the prosthetic eye captain closest to the expedition team, so his body surface turned into something like "moss" at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After entering the ground, Chen Yan has seen such "moss" several times.

Captain Prosthetic Eye lost his head, so he lost the nerve center used to control the body, and [Snake Kiss Strain] obviously controls the whole body through the nerve center, so the Captain Prosthetic Eye who has been soaked in the water just twitched all over, There can be no greater reaction.

The same goes for his teammates.

There was a hint of panic in Paulkin Walker's cursing voice:
"Looking at it this way, the entire waters here are full of this damn strain! As long as our protective gear is broken, we will be infected immediately!"

These words made the emotions of the other members of the expedition team drop to a freezing point. Only Chen Yan, who was still vigilant, did not fall into such a pessimistic mood.

'If, as Bald Parrett said, [Snake Kiss Strain] will catalyze negative emotions, thereby affecting people's spirits and deepening their control over people, then I must not let such emotions continue to spread. '

Chen Yan immediately said:
"Looking at it from another angle, our miners' suits and protective equipment such as gas masks have a good isolation effect and are not damaged, and there is no problem with the miners' boots, and the airtightness of the rubber at the connection with the trousers is quite good-as long as we Without direct contact with [Snake Kiss Strain], the chance of infection is 0!"

Paulkin Walker's eyes suddenly brightened:
"Yes! The quality of these protective gear is very good! When we bought these protective gear, the boss helped to check the air tightness on the spot, and assured us that there would be no problems!"

His spirit seems to have become a little abnormal due to the huge pressure...

He explained: "The two of us went to a fixed booth to buy these protective gear. The booth fee for the fixed booth was ridiculously high. If the boss cheated and ruined the reputation of the second-hand market, he would be kicked out by the managers of the second-hand market. Already! So these things must be of good quality!"

Paulkin Walker seemed a little incoherent, and Chen Yan patted him on the shoulder before he realized his emotional fluctuations.

"Although [Snake Kiss Strain] did not directly infect us, it is still continuously affecting our spirit through some method."

Chen Yan looked at his teammates:
"There is no problem with these protective gears for the time being. We have not been infected by the strain yet, which is the best proof!"

"Now we need to hurry up and find a way out of here!"

Find a way out of this damn place before the armor fails!
Chen Yan estimated in his heart that [Snake Kiss Strain] is not everywhere, at least not in the air, because this strain needs a host to survive, and the 'infectious bacterial organism' that needs a host is basically difficult to pass through. Air for infectious activity.

Chen Yan thought to himself, [Snake Kiss Strain] was mostly dormant in the water area in a semi-dormant state. After Captain Prosthetic Eye’s gas mask was smashed, [Snake Kiss Strain] smelled the smell of blood, and left the semi-dormant state. In a dormant state, quickly climb up the skin along the hole in the damaged area, invade the flesh and blood, and quickly infect...

"Hey...Chen Yan, look over there!"

Prompted by the spherical Tunguska, Chen Yan looked in the direction indicated by it, and saw that there was another hexagonal mine tunnel opposite the huge snake-shaped skeleton.

"Solar and his team must have gone deeper along the mine!"

At this moment, Chen Yan realized that Paulkin Walker and Weber had no way to go back and leave the mine tunnel. They could only pass through the huge snake-shaped skeleton covering almost half of the space and enter the hexagon on the other side. In the mine tunnel, look for Solal and his shuttle frame machine.

Bald Perrett's voice also came into Chen Yan's mind at this time:

'Now there is only survival from a desperate situation! '

The expedition team moved on.

They consumed a small half of the bullets here, but the remaining bullets were still enough to sustain two short battles, and the hot weapons in their hands became the only source of their sense of security at this moment.

In the process of continuing to move forward, Chen Yan really understood what this place looks like——

This is not a "passage", but a "cavity" that originally existed underground, where the corpse of a huge strange snake is entrenched, as if this place itself is the "grave" of this big snake.

Apart from Chen Yan, the other three also saw the essence of the "tomb" here, so they became more vigilant in their hearts.

The big snake's corpse is too huge, and there are a large number of dark green [Snake Kiss Plants] clinging to its snake bones. When walking in it, it feels like there are huge "vines" on the top of the head.

When passing a certain lower "vine", Chen Yan inadvertently glimpsed a prominent position above the "vine".

Under the light of the overhead searchlight, the protruding position was actually a bone spur, protruding from the dark green strains above the "vine", which looked very eye-catching.

The bone spurs are only the length of the palm of your hand, with rounded roots and sharp edges. They look like...

a knife.

Chen Yan suddenly seemed to think of something.

a knife? !
So far, the image of the bone spur in front of him and the sacrificial knife given to him by his colleague Alice in the zoo gradually overlapped in his memory...

This……

Although the shapes are not exactly the same, Chen Yan can be sure that this bone spur is the raw material used to make sacrificial knives!

Suddenly, some thoughts exploded in Chen Yan's mind:

1 When Alice gave him the knife, she said that she brought it out of [City of Overlapping Mountains].

2 In the Omega sector about 3000 meters underground, a sacrificial knife unique to [City of Overlapping Mountains] appeared, and this bony sacrificial knife was made of the bones of a big snake.

In other words, the sacrificial knives used by the aborigines in [City of Overlapping Peaks] were obtained from hunting big snakes!
[Brain Ball Strain] is a strain unique to [City of Overlapping Mountains], and has a strong hallucinogenic ability.

The [Snake Kiss Strain] in the Orochi group also only exists underground, and it also has hallucinogenic ability.

Is it...

[Snake Kiss Strain], is it some kind of variant of [Brain Ball Strain]?
