Trickster Hunter

Chapter 226 An unexpected discovery on the construction site

…

the next day.

As soon as Sun Hang opened his eyes, he saw a pair of golden eyes close at hand, and then, warm lips were already covering them.

"You performed well last night, this is your reward." Wang Xiyi whispered in Sun Hang's ear.

"I deserve this." Sun Hang chuckled, "My waist almost broke. This is not a reward, it should be compensation."

"Are you talking nonsense? A person who can't be thrown to death from a height of several hundred meters can't bear this level of exercise?" Wang Xiyi raised her eyebrows and pinched Sun Hang's waist hard.

In fact, both of them were relatively restrained last night. Firstly, they didn't want to make too much noise and attract other people's attention. Secondly, because of the physical strength of Sun Hang and Wang Xiyi... let alone this ordinary solid wood. The bed is big, and even the floor slab under the bed... and even the foundation of the villa may not be able to withstand their efforts.

"Actually, before we start, I have been thinking about a question." Sun Hang stared at the chandelier on the ceiling and said to himself.

"What's the problem?" Wang Xiyi came over and her slender dragon tail quietly wrapped around Sun Hang's left leg.

"Will the dragon lady also have scales in her body..."

"You guys, you have been thinking about some random things in your mind all day long... But if you want to try, you can do it." After Wang Xiyi finished speaking, she suddenly bit Sun Hang's ear.

Small drops of blood seeped out from the bite, sliding down her lips and tongue into her throat.

"Does it hurt?"

"good."

"One thing I'm curious about is why you don't carry any memes in your blood...how do you do it?"

The two of them realized this problem last night, not only in blood, but also in other body fluids secreted by Sun Hang.

The last time I was infected with Song Yarong, it was because Sun Hang directly used Tai Sui mycelium to create a "new lung" for Song Yarong, which caused Song Yarong to become an infected person... And what she was infected was just a pure Tai Sui meme. .

In addition, no matter how close Sun Hang is to others, his memes don't seem to be contagious to others.

The blood of an infected person is itself a high-risk item. If an ordinary person drinks the blood of an infected person that has not been "inactivated", the infection rate is over 60%. If the blood of an infected person is directly transfused into the body, the infection rate is as high as 97%. ...But Sun Hang's blood is very special - to monsters or skeletons, his blood is extremely poisonous; but to humans and infected people who are not completely transformed, his blood is normal. Human blood is no different.

"Maybe it's because Taotie's meme cannot infect other monsters..." Sun Hang casually made up a reason... In fact, he is now basically sure that the monster that infects him is definitely not Taotie. .

Or to put it more accurately - more than just Taotie.

"Do you want to get up?" Wang Xiyi said while licking Sun Hang's auricle with unfulfilled interest. At this time, the wound on the auricle that had just been bitten had recovered to its original state - Sun Hang's recovery ability had already been restored to her. Already know very well, last night she was in Sun More and more serious wounds were created on Hang's body, but these wounds all scabbed and healed in just a few seconds. Not to mention scars, even the color and texture of the new tissue were the same as the surrounding skin. It was completely obvious that There are no signs of injury.

"Or do you want to have a morning exercise?" Wang Xiyi's eyes were blurred and her breathing was hot.

"Forget it, I have to go to the testing site today." Sun Hang quickly stood up, picked up the pants that fell by the bed and put them on.

Wang Xiyi didn't have any extra clothes, so she put the nano armor directly on her body. With the sound of mechanical locks snapping, the clothes were already put on.

The two walked out of the room together, but happened to bump into Yang Lian standing in the corridor.

The latter was holding a stack of paper documents in one hand and a water glass in the other. The electric toothbrush in his mouth was still vibrating.

"You...you, you, you...gudong..." Yang Lian swallowed a large mouthful of toothpaste foam with some difficulty, and said in shock, "You two... stayed in the same room last night?"

"Yes." Before Sun Hang could speak, Wang Xiyi admitted generously.

The expression on Yang Lian's face suddenly became extremely exciting. After looking back and forth between the two of them several times, she murmured: "Have you...slept?"

"If you are curious, you are welcome to come and watch tonight." At this point, Sun Hang didn't bother to cover up, and simply used offense instead of defense, focusing on a person who is invincible if he is humble - "As long as I am thick-skinned enough, I can Ignore all doubts and rumors.”

"You...you...are crazy!" Yang Lian blushed and glared at Sun Hang, "I'm too lazy to care about you! Besides, what does this matter have to do with me!"

"Then why do you ask?" Sun Hang immediately seized the opportunity and began a full counterattack.

"I...I'm just a little surprised! After all, your relationship..." Yang Lian paused mid-sentence, "Anyway, the regulations do not prohibit hunters from interacting with each other...but I suggest you report it to the research institute. , after all, you two have special status, no one can guarantee..."

"Yang Lian, your face is very red." Wang Xiyi suddenly said with a smile, "Your heartbeat is also very fast. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"No... no way!" Yang Lian immediately retorted.

"Sun Hang, did she also appear in the dream created by Tumi?" Wang Xiyi turned her head and looked at the man standing behind her with a smile.

"Shh-" Sun Hang immediately put his hand on Wang Xiyi's lips, "I don't know what kind of dream it is!"

Yang Lian, whose brain was close to a short-circuit state, obviously didn't realize the information hidden in the conversation between the two. After taking a few deep breaths, he turned around and said: "I'm going to prepare for today's work first. Don't forget to go there today." Proving Ground! My sister hates people who procrastinate! "

"Okay, okay!" Sun Hang responded repeatedly.

If it weren't for the fact that I have to go to the testing ground today, I'm afraid I would still be doing "morning exercises" with Lao Wang...

Sun Hang walked down the stairs. Zhong Ling and Ye Xuan had already put the prepared breakfast on the table. Yang Qi happened to come out of the study yawning at this time.

Her long hair was casually tied behind her head, with a few messy strands sticking to her forehead. Her face without makeup was covered with a thin layer of oil, and the bags under her eyes were swollen and black. One look at her and she knew that she must have been there last night. I stayed up and worked until the early hours of the morning again.

"You're not... staying up all night again, are you?" Sun Hang glanced at her and asked.

"No, I squinted for a while at around six o'clock." Yang Qi said while yawning. She walked to the water dispenser sleepily, took a cup of hot water, and then poured two strips of concentrated water into the cup. of coffee liquid.

"More than six o'clock?" Sun Hang looked up at the clock on the wall. It was only half past seven. In other words, Yang Qi had only slept for more than an hour in total...

"Thank you for being able to wake up..." He couldn't help but sigh.

"I set the alarm clock and made an appointment at the test site today. I can't be late." Yang Qi took a sip of strong coffee, then poured out a small pill used to refresh herself from the pill box, and looked up. The head swallowed.

"No, I mean, it's a miracle that you didn't just sleep forever." Sun Hang shook his head repeatedly, "Strong coffee with stimulants, even the prince of hell would praise you for your good health."

"It's not a big problem, I'm used to it." Yang Qi waved her hand slowly, pulled out a disinfectant wipe used to wipe the table from the side, and wiped her face vigorously, "It's just that there seemed to be some noise upstairs last night. The noise was like something hitting the floor..."

"Oh, it was because I accidentally rolled to the edge of the bed and fell when I turned over in my sleep." Sun Hang explained immediately.

Although he used the ability of "Wishes Come True" to create a soundproof barrier covering the entire room, even so, he could not completely block the subtle sounds transmitted within the building structure.

"Can you still fall off the bed?" Yang Qi glanced at him suspiciously.

"I can't say that I was kicked down by Lao Wang accidentally..." Sun Hang muttered in his heart, grabbed two slices of toast from the plate and stuffed them into his mouth, "Eat, eat, eat "Hurry up and set off - I'll drive later. In your current state, I'm really worried about you driving the car into a tree."

"Yeah." Yang Qi drank the coffee in the cup in one gulp, picked up the toothpaste-like condensed milk in an aluminum tube, and spread a thick layer on a piece of toast.

"Squeezing so much condensed milk, why don't you die?" Sun Hang watched helplessly as Yang Qi swallowed the piece of toast that was almost wrapped in half a tube and couldn't help complaining.

"The brain needs enough sugar to keep running at a high speed..." Before Yang Qi could finish her words, the cell phones of several people in the restaurant rang in unison.

Sun Hang turned around and looked at Wang Xiyi. The former took out his mobile phone, and the holographic projector on the latter's wrist fired a beam of light, projecting a palm-sized holographic screen onto the dining table.

The news came from the construction site of the talent training base. When the workers were excavating the underground part of the northeast corner of the base, they accidentally discovered many tunnels extending in all directions in the rock formation fifty meters deep, and detected in the tunnels Some surviving snippets of spooky memes.

Considering that Chimera No. 17 used an underground tunnel to escape Tianfu City some time ago, the construction unit immediately notified various departments including the Disaster Countermeasures Committee and the Tianfu City Monster Research Institute of the news.

"Is it the passage left by Chimera No. 17 when it escaped?" Yang Lian had returned to normal at this time, frowning and browsing the photos of the scene in the message attachment.

"I don't think so." Ye Xuan shook her head, "The tunnels were temporarily dug when Chimera No. 17 escaped, but these tunnels deep in the rock formations seem to be many years old...unless..."

"Unless Chimera No. 17 once lived underground in Tianfu City and built a network of tunnels extending in all directions in the underground world, this would also explain why it was able to escape from Tianfu City so quickly and attack the people west of Lizhou. Qiang people's settlement area," Yang Lian immediately analyzed.

"Chimera No. 17 seems to have appeared after Yong Ye appeared, right?" Yang Qi said thoughtfully, "If it has been living underground in Tianfu City, then there shouldn't be any sighting records before... If it wants If you eat, there will definitely be missing persons cases, but in recent years, all the missing persons cases in Shuzhou area seem to have no corresponding number. "

"Perhaps it has been dormant?" Yang Lian added, "Just like a cicada, it needs to lie dormant underground for a long time until it matures before it can emerge from the ground?"

"It's hard to say... Since the construction site detected the meme fragments of the strange creature, this incident must be related to the strange creature." Yang Qi immediately decided, "The plan to go to the suburban test site is temporarily shelved, let's go to the construction site!"

"Indeed, seeing is believing." Sun Hang agreed, "No matter what the moth is, let's go to the scene to see it first."

The few people quickly finished breakfast and got into Yang Qi's military off-road vehicle. Sun Hang sat on the driver's seat, while Wang Xiyi squatted on the roof of the car, and the wings behind her slowly stretched out.

"Let's go!" Sun Hang stepped on the accelerator, and the car immediately rushed into the parking lot. At the same time, Wang Xiyi on the roof of the car also flapped her wings and rushed into the sky.

...

...

Half an hour later, the construction site of the talent training base.

Everyone gathered around the big pit dug by heavy equipment. The manager wearing a white safety helmet was talking to them about the situation of the underground tunnel being dug. A little further away, a dozen construction workers wearing blue and yellow helmets gathered together, arguing over some specific details.

"When we first dug it out, we thought it was a facility like an air-raid shelter left over from the old times." The man in the white hat said with spit flying, "I sent two workers to go inside the tunnel, but the further they went, the more they felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and there were many forks in the road... In order to prevent any safety accidents, I quickly asked these two people to come back. Later, the people from the Investigation Bureau came and took an instrument to test it. Wow, there are still some residual strange viruses in the tunnel! Fortunately, no big trouble was made..."

"Old Wang, are the meme fragments left in the tunnel from Chimera No. 17?" Sun Hang shouted loudly into the pit.

Wang Xiyi, who was standing at the bottom of the pit, shook her head.

"Tsk... I would rather it was that guy's." Sun Hang jumped and landed next to Wang Xiyi. Yang Qi and others took the elevator on the construction site and slowly descended to the bottom of the pit.

The tunnel is an irregular oval with a diameter of about ten meters. Not to mention people, even the off-road vehicle driven by Sun Hang can pass through it unimpeded... For the base construction team, such a tunnel is not a small project. Without the participation of a shield machine, the construction difficulty can be regarded as five-star.

"These tunnels are a bit like the nest of Taklamakan sandworms... But that kind of thing should not appear in Shuzhou." Yang Qi murmured.
