Chapter 92 Cleaning the Carriage
Inside the prison cell of the underground base.
This was originally used to imprison ghouls as experimental materials, but after they were able to stably cultivate ghouls of their own camp, the prison was no longer of much use, and thus it was abandoned for many years.
At this time, several passengers from the Doomsday Train who were imprisoned here were discussing how to escape.
Since the world's native inhabitants would normally be automatically blocked from information related to Doomsday Train, these guys had no intention of hiding anything and spoke to each other openly.
"Damn it, it looks like the Doomsday Train's special bounty mission is impossible to complete. Now I guess we'll have to use our carriage's trump card just to get this special base... What bad luck! I thought I could trigger some hidden branch line!"
A bald man cursed.
"We can't help it. Who would have thought that even a terrifying existence like Doomsday Train would suffer heavy damage? The collision alone directly destroyed several carriages. Many of those who were stronger than us died in the catastrophe. We are lucky to be able to survive."
A man with glasses said.
"Don't think about any special bounties for now. Things that can repair the Doomsday Train are not that easy to find. The most urgent thing is to quickly find a way to hunt down ghouls and find a way to get enough points to exchange for tickets."
A scarred man said with a frown.
In fact, if you have enough exchange points, then it doesn't matter if you don't hunt ghouls.
The Doomsday Train does not force passengers to launch mainline missions at every station. Passengers are only required to survive for a period of time until the Doomsday Train departs for the next station. But the problem is that whether it is some additional enhanced services of the Doomsday Train or getting on the train again after getting off the station, these are all expenses! You need to redeem points!
Therefore, every passenger must find ways to earn redemption points, and there is definitely no such thing as too much.
The passengers at the current station also know that this is a world whose prototype can be used as a reference for "Tokyo Ghoul", but their luck seems to be not very good. When they are in urgent need of points, they end up in a relatively safe place, a place where ghouls in the original plot were basically hunted down and exterminated by national forces.
It was also during the time when they were preparing to go to the place where the ghoul forces were most rampant in the original plot that these passengers discovered the underground base where Luo Ji was located, and then they simply used some special props to forge their identities and tried to sneak in here, to see if there were any hidden branch lines that could be triggered... In the end, because their acting skills were not good enough, Luo Ji found an excuse to take them down.
"By the way, have you determined what type of natural disaster this time is?"
Scarface suddenly said.
"It's confirmed, it's a biohazard."
The man with glasses said calmly.
Knowing the original plot, it is actually not difficult to survive and score points in the station world most of the time, whether it is finding the key moment to gain points, or finding a good place to live... In this way, Doomsday Train seems like doing charity, but don't forget what its essence is, so naturally you have to increase your intensity.
After a station where a natural disaster occurs survives for a period of time, passengers will also be able to be infected with the corresponding natural disaster atmosphere, thereby unlocking corresponding special enhanced services and forming their own unique style.
The passengers present are all veterans who have survived at least one station, so naturally they each possess their own exclusive power of natural disasters, and also have some special props, which are also their trump cards.
Although it is actually useless in the face of absolute power.
If these guys really wanted to resist just now, then those soldiers who have basically reached the limit of conventional ghouls under the normal combat power of individual soldiers would definitely teach them a lesson, and resistance and non-resistance are completely two different things.
If you don't resist, you may still be detained for a period of time. During this period, you will at least be provided with basic food and drink for humanitarian reasons, and then you will be considered for transportation.
But if they resist, it will be regarded as a dangerous factor, and under normal circumstances it must be eliminated on the spot if possible.
It can be said that these passengers had no idea that just a slight difference in thought could have sent them to the gates of hell.
"Very good, this will undoubtedly be a great opportunity for us to brush up our points... In this case, let's wait a few more days and wait until the zombie crisis breaks out completely before taking the opportunity to escape from this base. Who knows, we might even be able to stumble upon a hidden branch and gain some benefits."
The bald man suddenly said with shining eyes.
"Yes, this is our chance. Also, the researcher I saw before made a lot of sense. The research data on ghouls is definitely good stuff..."
The man with glasses also said quickly.
"Humph, when the zombie crisis hits the outside world, this underground base will definitely have problems such as lack of resources, which will give me a chance to kill that guy. He actually dared to call for someone to arrest us. I never thought that I would fail at this time!"
Scarface also spoke with a gloomy expression.
"That's right! When the time comes, we should first get rid of the guy who made us all go to jail..."
The bald man also said unhappily.
But just as the gang's loud conspiracy was coming to an end.
Applause suddenly broke out in the corridor outside the prison.
"You are really brave and resourceful. It really opened my eyes."
Luo Ji walked in and said while clapping and smiling.
How should I put it, it feels like a villain boss is about to appear.
Although it is true that these guys are somewhat brain-dead.
Not to mention that they had just been detained, the alert must have been on full blast. In this case, even if they were masked and conspiring loudly, they would definitely be noticed... The key point is that these guys didn't even observe the surrounding situation!
No, can't they see the big and bright cameras on the prison cell? As passengers on the Doomsday Train, there is absolutely no problem with their basic physical fitness. It can be said that this can only be a problem with their own thinking.
Not to mention, there are soldiers on duty secretly watching nearby, and with the powerful body after becoming a ghoul, let alone plotting loudly, even if a needle falls on the floor of the cell, the soldiers can sense it clearly.
"These guys really have bad intentions. They are no longer just spies. As a destabilizing factor, I request that they be executed immediately."
The soldier who followed Luo Ji in said with a cold expression.
After all, this happened right under his nose, which was tantamount to a direct loss of face, so this naturally made the soldier feel very unhappy.
And don't underestimate him as just an ordinary soldier who can be seen everywhere in this underground base. In fact, if you look at his military rank outside, he is at least a non-commissioned officer. Therefore, he naturally has a stronger self-esteem, especially after becoming a high-level ghoul, this emotion is even more magnified.
Or it would be better to say that this underground base is full of hidden talents, all of whom are real talents, and no one is just a simple person.
In fact, this was also the reason why Luo Ji, after noticing the abnormality and giving the order, the soldiers directly chose to arrest these passengers.
In the beginning, due to the influence of the knowledge barrier caused by the special props authority, these passengers could easily sneak into the base without even bothering to disguise themselves. But when Luo Ji broke through the knowledge barrier, these guys naturally looked suspicious no matter how they looked at them. Their style was so wrong that they were out of tune with the entire base.
"Damn it, you want to kill me? Then come on!"
Scarface directly expressed that he could not tolerate it, and then began to shout across the prison facilities.
At this time, he was completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem. Scarface probably thought that there was an iron door between us, so how could he kill me in one second?
"You can disarm the other party first."
Luo Ji suddenly said this. And a soldier who followed Luo Ji in activated his kagune almost instantly.
So the next moment, the originally arrogant Scarface was like being shot. Yuhe's derivative tissue avoided the vital points and pierced his body fiercely. In this situation, being able to stand there for one more second would be disrespectful to Yuhe, whose properties were equivalent to special metal.
"Duang!"
With a loud and clear sound, Scarface fell directly to the ground, and the blood flowing from his body formed a pool of blood.
"This...is unlikely..."
The bald man changed his previous confident look and a drop of cold sweat unconsciously flowed down his forehead.
Just look at the speed of its unfolding, and the terrifying shape of its kagune...even among the characters that appeared in the original story, there are probably not many who can reach this level!
"Oh my god! Are you kidding me?"
The man with glasses was also acting out of character. He was unable to keep calm and even became a little crazy, as if he was powerless to accept the reality after feeling despair.
"So, this guy..."
The bald man simply gave up resisting, chose to sit on the ground, and asked the man with glasses next to him.
"If we convert it to the original story... he is at least an SSS-level hybrid, a powerful being on the same level as the coffee shop manager."
The man with glasses said in despair.
His glasses are a special prop. Combined with the natural disaster intelligent machine crisis that the man with glasses had experienced before, he can detect the opponent's combat power and obtain relevant basic information when the conditions are met.
In fact, if it was just this soldier who was so powerful, then the passengers present would be able to accept it.
If this kind of underground base is really a hidden branch, it would be unusual if there was no powerful BOSS of this level to guard it. And the trump cards of these passengers combined together are capable of killing such a strong man.
But the problem is that the information the man with glasses just detected was not just that.
This soldier killed Scarface almost instantly with one move, and even showed mercy and did not use his full strength. In fact, he was the weakest one among the people present!
It is precisely because he is the weakest that this guy was allowed to take action. This way, he can better control the strength and avoid accidentally killing these passengers. That would be a waste. Although no one cares about the lives of these guys, they still have to get some information out of them and squeeze out more value.
The bald man actually noticed something... But it doesn't matter now, right?
"And the strongest one... is actually this researcher who originally looked so powerless!"
The man with glasses said stupidly.
These words naturally also fell into the ears of those soldiers.
But they were indifferent to this.
Not to mention Luo Ji's prestige in the base over the years, not to mention the hidden bonuses such as the talents that Luo Ji had just acquired.
As long as Luo Ji does not do anything like openly rebelling against the country, these soldiers will unconditionally trust Luo Ji and obey his commands, and are even willing to sacrifice themselves to protect Luo Ji in certain circumstances.
"Interesting, this guy's glasses are pretty good, I can send them for research later."
Luo Ji said lightly.
"Yes."
Another soldier said so, and at the same time, he left a residual image on the spot as if it was almost a flash, and the whole person actually appeared directly behind the man with glasses.
Since the man with glasses had already lost the will to resist, he tried to survive in the cell until the doomsday train started moving. Therefore, he had no time to react and was knocked unconscious by the soldiers from behind.
"Don't kill me! I'm willing to cooperate!"
The bald man was so frightened that he raised his hands and said in panic.
"It would be best if we could cooperate."
Luo Ji said with a smile, and then several scarlet flesh tentacles grew out from his back and penetrated into the bodies of the passengers in the cell.
In fact, there were more than three passengers, but just now only these three were discussing something.
The other passengers either chose to remain silent because they could not get a word in, or they had mental problems...
As mentioned before, the passengers are also divided into compartments. Normally, the passengers in the same compartment should appear together after the advent... But the problem is that the Doomsday Train suffered a heavy blow not long ago! Many passengers even died at that time!
Simply put, these passengers were not originally from the same compartment and were forced together.
"So, there are several other teams besides you guys?"
Luo Ji said lightly, and the tentacles that emerged at the same time easily absorbed the information he wanted.
These guys are more or less useful. They have more or less some extraordinary power systems of other world rules. At this moment, Luo Ji has integrated them directly with the light of his mind, and the most critical aura of natural disasters has also been replicated by Luo Ji.
"There is another carriage..."
The bald man said this dully, but then his expression turned more frightened.
"You, you understand what we say?"
"right."
Luo Ji said with a smile.
The next moment, the heads of all the passengers in the cell exploded on the spot.
After it is no longer of any use, it is natural to clean it up.
As for sympathy... Luo Ji is not a kind-hearted guy. To be honest, if he hadn't activated the plug-in, under normal circumstances, these passengers might have really wiped out the underground base. And what is there to say when facing someone who wants to kill you?
"Well, let's deal with the biohazard next, and destroy the other carriage as well."
Luo Ji thought so.
