Chapter 282 He went out
The humanoid creature lay prone on the ground, its long limbs making it look like a long-legged spider.
Once you remove that fleshy layer, this is its true form.
The mutant's muscles bulged, and it suddenly charged towards them.
Knowing full well that the flames would burn it, why did it still dare to go forward?
Miao Yin squinted, carefully watching what was about to happen.
The moment the mutant rushed into the fire, its body suddenly grew larger, with layers of thick fat and muscle covering its entire body, like a giant cushion, resisting the flames to the greatest extent and protecting its internal organs.
New granulation tissue began to grow rapidly in the areas scorched by the flames, piling up layer by layer.
While this method can get it into the flames, it's only a temporary solution.
If Miao Yin were to slightly increase the output of her special ability, such resistance would be futile.
It seemed oblivious to pain, relentlessly pushing forward.
...That's a bit strange.
Tu Hao was about to take off his gloves.
To prevent the toxins from entering, even the gloves and clothes were tightly bound together, leaving no gaps.
It will take some time to remove the gloves intact.
Miao Yin pressed his hand down, indicating that he didn't need to.
Although this thing is a bit strange, it is ultimately just a monster at the yellow crystal core level. Her flames are enough to solve everything, and there is no need to dismantle the protection in a place that may be full of toxins.
Tu Hao stopped taking off his gloves, suddenly grabbed Miao Yin's arm, and pulled her a step toward him.
Miao Yin looked back and saw a flesh-colored bone chain passing right through the spot where she had just been standing.
A crack had appeared in the distorted human face, from which more than a dozen bone chains emerged, their two eyes staring menacingly at them.
Miao Yin gave a cold laugh; the raging fire had suddenly subsided.
She manipulated her powers to change her appearance, eventually forming more than a dozen bone chains that were exactly the same as those in the mouths of the mutants.
Without its intimidating appearance, the corrosive and aggressive nature of the Mi Huo is even stronger.
It is agile, fierce, and insidious.
Since the mutants like to use this method to ambush her, she will use this form to send them on their way.
The fiery bone chains pierced through the mutant's body from all directions in an instant, also piercing and pinning down its wide-open mouth and eyes that had been threatening them.
Once inside the body, the fiery bone chains exploded, unleashing even more concentrated and intense fire that tore the deformed man apart from the inside out.
It was like a ruptured balloon, bursting out with bloody tissue fluid, staining the passage behind it wet.
The yellow crystal core was also blasted out and landed in the pile of meat.
The blood and flesh that splattered forward were blocked by Miao Yin's wall of fire.
Immediately afterwards, the fire swept through the passage, burning all the pieces of flesh and completely eliminating any possibility of the mutant surviving.
If it weren't for the pervasive stench of burnt fat, indicating what had just happened, probably no one would have realized what was going on.
Everyone in the group was stunned by such powerful strength and stared in astonishment at Miao Yin's retreating figure.
"Is this... the superpowered individual that Captain Peng acknowledged?"
There are many fire-type ability users in the base, but none of them have ever brought such a strong sense of oppression.
It's unbelievable that he can kill monsters of the Yellow Crystal level with ease.
Miao Yin had no time to pay attention to their praise. She walked to the spot where the crystal core had just flown out. In the ashes beneath her feet, only a small yellow light flickered.
She picked up the crystal core, but instead of absorbing it, she examined it carefully. Suddenly, the light from the crystal core went out.
The colorless crystal core seemed to have reached its limit and shattered in Miao Yin's palm.
Beneath the mask, Miao Yin's expression was calm, as if she were pondering something.
"What's wrong?" Tu Hao asked when she suddenly stopped moving, and came to her side.
"Did your danger perception sense anything strange?" Miao Yin asked.
Hearing her say that, Tu Hao took another careful look and shook his head: "No, it's very quiet around here now."
"What just happened?"
"It's a normal sensation, just like usual. Is there a problem?"
Miao Yin stretched out her hand to show him the small piece of gravel in her palm.
"The crystal core is fake."
"what?"
Tu Hao picked up a piece of gravel and placed it in front of his blindfold, frowning as he observed it.
No matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary little pebble.
"You mean, the mutant from earlier wasn't at the yellow crystal core level at all, and what I sensed was just its disguise?"
I've heard of things that disguise their appearance, but this is the first time I've seen something disguised as a crystal core.
So... even his crying wolf was deceived.
Miao Yin recalled the scene just now: "Your perception was correct. It does have that kind of power, but it can't maintain it for long."
Tu Hao: "In other words, this may not be its true form yet."
However, his special ability did not detect any stronger beings nearby.
"Yes, it's possible it's hidden somewhere else. Let's get out of here first."
Miao Yin clapped her hands, threw away the pebbles in her hands, and waved behind her, signaling everyone to follow.
The original exit gate had been destroyed by the mutants, and all the firearms used in the attack had been exhausted, so it was safe to go through now.
Leaving this passage, there is one of the small management offices behind it.
This management room is mainly responsible for controlling the discharge of wastewater from the weapons depot.
Wastewater from weapons depots is a serious problem. Normal domestic water is manageable, but nuclear wastewater and industrial wastewater are the real issues.
Therefore, the places where these wastewater discharges are managed must be strictly guarded, and the personnel entering and leaving must also be strictly managed.
However, compared to the storage of weapons and the high-specification thermal weapon design blueprints, a place to discharge wastewater seems less important.
The designer specifically placed the entrance to the passage in this seemingly inconspicuous but difficult-to-enter management room in order to hide the secret exit.
It was still pitch black outside, so they turned on their flashlights and groped their way out until they finally arrived at the management office.
Although the management room is not large in the entire armory, it is actually quite spacious once you step inside.
The electronic screen was completely damaged, and the chairs and equipment were all overturned on the ground, looking quite dilapidated.
Fang Ce first used a military-grade gas detector to test the air.
The instrument indicates there is a slight amount of toxin here, but it is not serious.
Then I tested it with a radiation detector, and there was no problem.
Only then did he feel relieved. He took out a map, placed it on the table, pointed to a certain point, and said...
"This is where we are now, and the room to the upper right is the central management room. It is there that we can unlock the armory's defense system and open the door."
Of course, this is not their primary task.
Fang Ce then pointed to another place: "This is the legendary Room Number One. All the military secrets of the armory are stored here. Our most important mission this time is to take out all these secrets and take them out."
In the prophecy, the Scarlet Catastrophe will unleash its arsenal.
No one can guarantee that Room Number One will remain intact.
This contains the culmination of thousands of years of human wisdom. With these blueprints and secrets, they have the potential to rebuild an entire arsenal.
Their real mission was to smuggle these documents out through the secret passage.
“Once we get what we need, we’ll go our separate ways,” Miao Yin said.
She and Mr. Lu had made an agreement back then.
Mengcheng provided her with conveniences; she could come in with the army, and she could do whatever she wanted afterward. They would also provide her with all the assistance she desired.
The premise is that those classified documents can be sent out and cannot be destroyed in the weapons depot.
Once these people have taken their things and returned here, Miao Yin will go to find the Crimson Calamity hidden in the armory.
If they're lucky, they can kill it from the inside, and then the next step is to open the armory and take the weapons out.
If you're unlucky, it might escape.
That would be a huge problem.
but……
Whether we can even get there is still a question.
