Chapter 6 Going deep into the mine
But when I left the base by car, a small thing happened, which made Lu Chen's eyes look strange. The gate of this town is not wide and can only accommodate a few cars to move side by side. Of course, because of the smallest connection, there is no problem in entering and exiting this base.
But when Lu Chen and his team went out, a large group of contractors entered the base from outside.
Of course, the small thing Lu Chen said was not that they had conflicts with foreign contractors because of the road, so contractors were not so brainless.
When he saw that there were too many people on the other side, Renault had already driven the car to the side as soon as possible and waited for the large army to pass by.
At the same time, the contractors in the car were looking at the team enviously.
This group of people is thirty or forty, all of them are high-level contractors. This is the first time Lu Chen has seen so many contractors appear.
There seem to be quite a lot of advanced contractors trained in space, but thinking about the low-level area of Lu Chen and others, more than one contractor has been released in about half a year, so you can know the number of advanced contractors.
Who knows how many low-level zones there are in the Nightmare Space? And the high-level contractors have a mission once every six months, and the survival rate is much higher than that of the low-level zones. It is natural to be able to accumulate so many contractors.
When the group entered the town, not only Lu Chen and the others gave way, but the others were also scattering around, making way for the group.
Lu Chen did nothing to stop these behaviors, he was just curious about what this team was.
When he thought of it, Lu Chen asked, but he didn't hide too much and asked Renault directly in the driver's seat.
"Who are those?"
"They are the Zhanhu team, building and controlling the team of this town. I really hope that one day, I can build a town like them." When he said this, Renault had serious unconcealed envy.
After hearing Renault's explanation, Lu Chen also reacted that this town is not big, and it is not the Zhanhu team that can have so many contractors.
At the same time, Renault's words also touched Lu Chen. Of course, what touched Lu Chen was not the Virginity that everyone had to give in and out.
But interests, which controls this small town where contractors gather, even if they do nothing. The money collected by just some services is enough to make their lives very comfortable.
However, Lu Chen also understood that without strong enough strength, it was basically impossible to build a base that could win over the contractors.
This made Lu Chen look at the marching tiger members.
Although he did not use the reconnaissance skills, Lu Chen also felt the strength of the Zhanhu team, and none of them were weak in the thirty or forty people. Not only that, there were even a few people in the team that made Lu Chen feel threatened.
No one stopped him. The Zhanhu team was moving very fast. In just a moment, they left Lu Chen's sight. The gate of the town returned to its original state after the Zhanhu team left. Renault also took this opportunity to quickly leave the town.
The car was driving halfway. Lu Chen was thinking about the Zhanhu team, and he already had the idea of building a town by himself.
But Lu Chen also understood that it is not difficult to build a town, but it is very difficult to get the recognition of the Nightmare Space and the contractor is willing to go there.
As Lu Chen thought, the car drove fast, and soon, Lu Chen threw the town in his mind behind him. Now is not the time to think about this.
After coming out of the town, Lu Chen could finally see the outside world. The place they were traveling now was deserted and there was no vegetation. A simple road spreading in the wilderness. The contractors drove on this road.
During the driving process, nothing happened, and there was also wilderness around him, which made Lu Chen quite regretful. He also wanted to see the landscape of this world.
After driving for more than an hour, Lu Chen and his team arrived at the destination, the mine invaded by monsters.
During this process, the contractors on the car also had a conversation and briefly explained the direction they were good at, so that they could cooperate better.
However, during this process, Lu Chen was always rejected by Ji Hong, which made Lu Chen helpless.
From the conversations between others, Lu Chen felt that although Ji Hong was a little hot, her lively personality was still very good. She quickly became familiar with others. Only Lu Chen was disgusted by her.
Because of this disgust of a look, Lu Chen maliciously speculated that he might have had some bad experiences in the low-level area, so that Ji Hong would be so unbearable.
Thinking of the chaos and difficulties in the low-level area, Lu Chen became even more sure of what she thought was that she must have had some painful experience in the low-level area.
When they arrived at their destination, there was not a single person. A large group of ordinary humans were waiting for the contractors. After looking at the cars next to the humans, Lu Chen knew that they had just arrived not long ago.
As soon as Lu Chen and the others arrived, a fat businessman ran over.
"Is it Renault, Captain Lei? Thank you so much for your hard work this time."
"fine……"
Looking at their conversation, Lu Chen also knew that the fat man was the supervisor here and the task he issued, and he was considered the customer of Lu Chen and his team this time.
After just a glance, Lu Chen skipped him. The people behind him attracted Lu Chen's attention. There was not only one person behind him, but nearly a hundred people. Judging from their dress and weapons, Lu Chen knew that they were mercenaries in this world.
Soon, Renault will talk to the mission publisher.
"Don't you need a rest?" The businessman was quite polite to Lu Chen and other contractors. Of course, this is also because Lu Chen and the others have powerful power.
"No need, go and complete the task early." Renault refused, and Lu Chen and the others had already rested.
"Okay, I'll ask you to the mine this time."
Nodded, Renault walked towards the group of mercenaries.
"Who is the captain? Come out to see me."
"It's me." A one-eyed man holding a cannon in his hand walked out of it.
After looking at it, feeling the war aura on the captain, Renault nodded with satisfaction; "Very good, we will carry out the mission together this time, so I will give you more advice."
"Don't dare."
Looking at their conversation, Lu Chen was a little surprised. He turned his head and asked the contractor next to him: "The mercenaries are going to act with us."
"Of course." He looked at Lu Chen strangely. The contractor seemed to think of Lu Chen's identity as a newcomer and reluctantly explained: "You are a newcomer. You may not know that in this world, we will all use the power of the world itself to perform tasks. Of course, most of these do not require us to come forward. When carrying out tasks, the person who posts the tasks will do it in advance."
Seeing Renault giving instructions to the mercenary captain, it would be over in a short time, the contractor around Lu Chen explained carefully to Lu Chen.
"The hierarchy of our contractors is originally derived from the mercenary level of this world, but their strength is too low, only one or two levels. If we can enter this world, the lowest ones are high contractors. Among the mercenaries, their strength is equivalent to that of the strong."
"But don't underestimate them. After all, they have too many more people than contractors, and there are also many ghost-level, dragon-level, and even heaven-level strong men."
After nodding clearly, Lu Chen stopped talking. Renault soon negotiated with the low-level mercenaries. Although they occupied the number of people, the contractors were strong, so everything was still dominated by the contractors.
Although mercenaries are not as difficult as contractors, they are also people who survive on the edge of the knife and are very convinced by the strong contractors. They are not too dissatisfied with them either.
With the mercenaries, Renault led a group of people to a deep cave, which was the mining site of this company.
Mining requires machines. Therefore, the cave is large, enough for more than a dozen people to walk side by side, but when we got here, Lu Chen and the others did not enter the cave immediately.
Renault took out a round ball from his body and clicked it twice at will. The ball slowly flew towards the cave.
Such a small ball made Lu Chen think of the reconnaissance tools of Skynet in the world. At that time, Lu Chen was forced to do so miserably by such reconnaissance tools.
As high-level contractors, Renault and others are not only strong in frontal strength, but also not bad in other aspects such as reconnaissance.
When the ball flew in, Renault sensed it for a while before he led the contractor and the mercenaries forward.
For work, the mine has a series of things such as cables and lights. These things are not completely destroyed by the monsters. Those who walk here do not have to worry about lighting.
However, after all, the underground is a bit depressed, and there are enemies lurking in the dark and may come to attack at any time. The contractors are better, and the mercenaries are a little nervous, and their weapons are tightly held in their hands.
Although these mercenaries are not very strong, their weapons can still help the contractors a lot. Renault doesn't expect them to tighten their bodies at this moment, and finally see the enemy, so they lose their strength.
"I got the detector just now from other places. It can not only rely on light detection, but also use ultrasonic and thermal energy to detect it. As long as the enemy is there, it will definitely be discovered. Relax a little."
Renault showed his strength on one hand and gave others confidence, and the effect was very good. After listening to Renault's words, the mercenaries were obviously much more relaxed.
The contractors' physiques are beyond ordinary people, and the mercenaries behind them also fight for years. Therefore, Lu Chen and his group advanced very quickly. After a while, they arrived at the depths of the mine. Although Lu Chen and his team had not yet encountered monsters, they saw many corpses that were half eaten by monsters, and there were bloodstains on the surrounding walls. They were all left after being attacked by monsters.
When we arrived here, the contractors were also careful about their actions.
After walking for a while, Lu Chen and the others were approaching the deepest part of the cave.
Before entering here, the contractor had inferred that the monsters in the mine were probably mined their nests while mining.
If the guess is true, Lu Chen and the others will now enter the enemy's attack range.
When he arrived here, Renault had taken out his weapons and held them in his hand. Not only him, but Ji Hong, but also other contractors also took out their weapons.
In this way, the contractor is on guard and moves forward.
As he moved forward, Lu Chen suddenly narrowed his eyes. He felt the movement in the distance. After experiencing it carefully, Lu Chen felt the creature's eight claws moving on the ground, and at the same time felt the vibration amplitude of the ground. Lu Chen learned that the eight claw monsters were not light in weight and at least the weight of a car.
Originally, Lu Chen could only feel one, but the more he advanced, the more enemies Lu Chen felt. Finally, in Lu Chen's sense, there were nearly a hundred eight-legged monsters.
Another one weighed about the same weight as a heavy tank. With such a weight, Lu Chen could already imagine how huge the monster was.
With so many monsters, Lu Chen was a little worried whether Renault and the mercenaries behind could deal with it.
Lu Chen's induction was far away after becoming a high-level contractor. At this time, Renault's detector had not discovered anything. After thinking for a while, Lu Chen decided to remind him that after all, he had to do some effort to join this team.
After making up his mind, Lu Chen did not hesitate, took two steps forward and stopped Renault, who was walking in the front.
"What's going on? What did you find?" Lu Chen's sudden action surprised Renault, but then he reacted and asked the others to stop. He asked Lu Chen himself.
"I felt that the enemy was a monster with eight claws, weighing as heavy as a car, and the number was about a hundred."
Because he didn't know the name of the monster, Lu Chen reported all the information he perceived to see if Renault, who had been living here for a long time, could he know the name and type of the monster from this information.
Before Renault could speak, the mercenary captain following the contractor terrified: "Eight feet, weighing as heavy as a car, are they still living in groups underground. Could it be rock spiders? Damn, we won't fight them underground, this is an act of seeking death."
Lu Chen didn't care about his horror, but soon Lu Chen noticed that not only him, but also the contractor's face was a little ugly.
This made Lu Chen curious about monsters like rock spiders. However, before Lu Chen could ask questions, Renault's voice came over.
"Are you sure the monster you detected is this?" Renault looked solemn at this moment.
The solemn atmosphere of the entire team made Lu Chen a little curious about the monster he perceived and nodded: "Although I don't know what the monster looks like, what I detected is the kind I said. If you don't identify it wrongly, it is a rock spider."
Lu Chen's words made Renault silent, and he paused. Lu Chen asked curiously: "What is a rock spider?" (To be continued.)
