Trickster Hunter

Chapter 164 Going Underground

"Damn it?! Who fired the flare?! Are you going to die?!" the fisherman yelled.

Yang Qi and Sun Hang said that with the firepower of the "Shrike-class" missile destroyer, it would be easy to flatten the ground part of the ruins of the research institute.

The place where the flare was fired was less than one kilometer away from them. According to the bombing range agreed before the start of the operation, the place where Sun Hang and his team were now was also within the bombing area.

"The Yamata no Orochi has appeared, and the destroyer should not execute the bombing order as usual... right?" Yano also came out and said while looking at the red flames still burning in the air.

"Do you dare to bet? Anyway, I don't dare to bet!" said the fisherman, "It will be too late to run when the shells fall! We have to leave this place quickly!"

"What about her?" Yano pointed at Huangfu Sha in the house.

"I'll carry her! Apart from that, throw away all the unimportant equipment and gear, and run towards the edge of the basin at full speed. We should be able to get out of the bombing range in time!"

"Too late." Sun Hang shook his head.

At the same location, three more red flares were launched into the air.

One red flare means "request bombing", and two red flares mean "the situation is very urgent, please bomb immediately" - the delay time of the bombing will be shortened from the original five minutes after the flare is launched to one minute.

One minute is not enough to even get out of this block.

"Are you crazy? Who is over there! Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?" The fisherman cursed again.

"The only place to avoid bombing now is underground." Sun Hang said, "The curse will not kill people immediately, but the bombing will."

"The nearest underground entrance to us is in Area C. Go past the intersection in front, turn left, and walk another 100 meters. There is an entrance to the underground passage!" Yano said, "I just don't know if it has been blocked."

"Take Huangfu Sha with you, let's go!" Sun Hang picked up the box containing the weapon, picked up the monitoring equipment with his other hand, and ran directly to the intersection.

The fisherman didn't stand there, turned back to the house, carried Huangfu Sha, and followed him in two steps.

Instead, Yano, who was lightly dressed, fell behind.

Turning around the intersection, a building that looked like a subway station came into Sun Hang's sight. This entrance was originally blocked by iron fences, but the chains used to tie the iron fences had been cut open, and the two rows of iron fences on the far left were also lifted to the side.

Obviously, the previous two groups of hunters entered the underground of the research institute from here.

There were only a dozen seconds left before the bombing, and the three of them could no longer care about so much. They rushed down the steps and entered a horizontal underground tunnel.

Then, a deafening explosion accompanied by violent shaking came, and broken stones kept falling from the top of the head, and visible cracks spread rapidly on the tunnel wall.

"No! It's going to collapse here! Hurry up and get in!" Yano shouted.

The three of them continued to run forward with the unconscious Huangfu Sha. At the end of the tunnel, there was a wider and more solid tunnel. The ground of the tunnel was paved with rails, and there were more than a dozen trucks for transporting construction materials neatly stacked next to it. Hundreds of bags of cement were piled up against the wall to the top of the tunnel.

The bombing lasted for a full 120 seconds. When the continuous explosions stopped, the tunnel that Sun Hang and his team came in had completely disappeared.

"How could such a clichéd plot from a soap opera happen to me?" Sun Hang patted the collapsed earth and rocks that blocked the tunnel and couldn't help but sigh.

The collapsed tunnel was blocked very tightly. Even with Sun Hang's ability to manipulate earth and rocks, it was extremely difficult to dig a passage back to the ground.

If the passage was opened forcibly, it would most likely cause a second landslide.

"Damn it, I didn't want to go underground, but I still came in. I'm really screwed!" The fisherman punched the wall angrily, and a muffled sound spread far away along the tunnel.

"If the other exits are not blocked, we still have a chance to get out." Yano said, "This is Station C of the Wuming Island Underground Railway. According to the original construction plan, this underground railway was built earlier than the second and third phase expansion projects on the ground. Its early function was to transport construction materials."

"In that era, there were no subways in ordinary cities, right?" Sun Hang approached the rails and looked at them carefully. "It seems that the Xiazhou Federation really attached great importance to this place back then."

"It's called a subway, but it's actually more like the kind of track laid in a mine to transport ore." Yano said.

"So what should we do now?" asked the fisherman.

"There are quite a few trucks for transporting things, but unfortunately there is no traction locomotive." Yano added, "Otherwise, we can use this railway to quickly move to other exits."

"I just noticed that the person who sent the signal flare to request the bombing is right in the center of the basin." Sun Hang said, "That is to say, the entire ruins of the research institute should be within the bombing range. The situation of other exits is probably not optimistic."

"I just hope that man is not killed by the bombing," the fisherman said gritting his teeth, "If I run into him, I will beat him to death."

"Sun Hang, what is your plan?" Yano looked at Sun Hang, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, "If the curse here is really what those Ansa hunters said... To use an old saying in your Xiazhou, That’s ‘not a place to stay long’.”

"Go forward along the railway track and check whether the exits along the way are blocked." Sun Hang said, "In addition, I am also a little curious about where the two waves of hunters who entered the underground went..."

"There are traces of the truck body being moved." The fisherman regained his composure slightly. "The footprints disappeared when they reached the edge of the track. In addition, there were brand-new friction marks on the rails... I guess there should have been a tractor engine here before. They We left via the railroad tracks.”

"Where's the direction?" Sun Hang asked again.

"From left to right." The fisherman rubbed the friction marks on the track with his fingers, and then said.

"That's the direction leading to the second underground floor." Yano, who had memorized the entire structure diagram of the Wuming Island Research Institute, said immediately.

"The second group of hunters also went in this direction?" Sun Hang continued to ask.

"The second group... is weird." The fisherman muttered, "There are only the footprints of one group of people here... The second group of hunters, they have either merged with the Ansa hunters, or they have not gone underground at all... …etc!"

The fisherman seemed to have remembered something and suddenly raised his head: "Damn it, that flare just now was not launched by them, was it?"
