Chapter 586 Entering Londinium
Chapter 586 Entering Londinium
The sky was overcast, and neither the sun nor the twin moons were visible.
But the mighty power of the movement of celestial bodies cannot be obscured by clouds.
When dusk falls, the land uncontrollably falls into the embrace of darkness.
On the walls of Londinium, lights were lit one by one, illuminating the surroundings for the patrolling Sarkaz warriors, and also bringing a light of despair to the Londinium defenders who were forced to work overtime.
Mudstone brought a group of Sarkaz to the gap in the city wall that he had repaired during the day.
"Lord Mudstone, is there anything else that needs to be checked here?"
The team leader stepped forward and asked.
“I’m just here to chat with my friends.”
Mudstone squatted down and gently stroked the soil filling the gap: "This is the closest place to them on the city wall. This city is too high, so high that I can hardly hear their voices clearly."
The Sarkaz looked at each other, unable to understand the friend that Mudstone was talking about.
But the experience during the day was enough to prove that this was their reason.
The mud friends that Mudstone mentioned do exist, and they can always tell Mudstone where there are gaps in the city wall.
The Sarkaz did not disturb Mudstone's quiet conversation with his clay friends; they just stood by respectfully.
No one noticed that in the dark, a team was quietly approaching the gap in the city wall.
Shuiyue used her ability of Mirror Flower and Water Moon to create an illusion to wrap everyone up, and they perfectly blended into the environment under the protection of the night.
The soil at the gap quietly cracked open a passage.
On this hundred-meter-high city wall, a tiny crack that is only wide enough for one person to pass through seems so insignificant that no one can notice it.
As the doctor and his team entered the passage, the soil was filled back without leaving any trace.
Pure darkness enveloped the team.
No one panicked. Everyone took out their tactical glow sticks and groped forward in the dim light.
"It's right here. By digging a passage downwards, we can enter the underground pipelines of Londinium."
Vina took advantage of her local status and measured the distance with her footsteps. Then she took off her hammer and prepared to start.
hum-
The roar of the chainsaw was heard.
"Hey, let me, an expert in attacking tough situations, handle this kind of thing."
Huang started his chainsaw and excitedly walked forward to show off his special skills.
Everyone was frightened by the buzzing electric saw and clung to the dirt wall in the narrow passage, fearing that they would be accidentally scratched.
The doctor huddled beside Amiya and repeatedly reminded her, "Be careful and don't make too much noise."
"Don't worry, Doctor. I'm a professional!"
Huang smiled and poked the chainsaw down.
……
……
"Fester, what are you going to do with that Ferrin named Mandela?"
Lolo specifically called Fester out of the Self-rescue Army camp and asked him seriously what he thought.
Facing Luo Luo's question, Fester smiled bitterly:
"What can I do? She is Qi Yan's person, and even Clovisia agrees with Mandela's existence. We have to trust Clovisia. She is the commander of the Self-rescue Army."
"It's not that I don't trust Clovisia." Luo Luo was a little distressed, "It's just that Mandela doesn't seem like a good person. Her attitude is always so condescending... She's even a little hostile to us."
“But she’s Victorian too, isn’t she?”
Fester comforted him: "Mandela is also our compatriot. Under the current circumstances, we must unite all the forces we can to fight against the Sarkaz.
Mandela is very powerful, her only weakness is that she is too emotional, but with Qi Yan's order, she will not attack the Self-rescue Army."
"I don't think it's emotional, but stupid. Besides, why do you trust Qi Yan so much?"
"It's not that I trust Qi Yan, it's that I have no other options."
A trace of helplessness flashed across Fester's face.
But he quickly suppressed this barely perceptible emotion and mustered up his energy again:
"On the bright side, Mandela's joining also brought a lot of useful intelligence to the Self-rescue Army, such as the Storm Commando that was about to attack the prison."
"Don't trust it easily for now. What if it's a trap?"
Luo Luo remained alert and said, "Old Bill and I are going to receive the information sent back by Golding tomorrow. If there is a chance, I will contact the Storm Commando and then wait for Clovisia to make a decision."
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Fester nodded.
Luo Luo wanted to continue to say something, but her cat ears suddenly moved and she asked in confusion:
"Did you hear anything?"
The two stopped talking at the same time and listened carefully to the sounds around them.
The Londinium underworld is always full of sounds.
The friction sound of mechanical operation, the clatter of gears turning, the rustling sound of liquid flowing through pipes...
But this time, in addition to these familiar old friends, there is also a new sound source that has never appeared before.
"It looks like something is digging through the dirt and rocks... Hmm? It's getting closer!"
Fester's pupils shrank slightly, and he quickly pulled Lolo away from where they were.
As the two men watched with some horror, the sound of digging grew louder and louder, proving that the unknown being was approaching them at an extremely fast speed.
Soon, the sound of metal colliding was heard.
Fester saw with his own eyes that the ceiling of the passage above his head, which was made of pure metal, was deformed, as if it had been hit hard by something.
"We've arrived, everyone, please pay attention to landing!"
Through the metal ceiling of the passage, Fester heard a woman's passionate shouting.
The next second, the huge electric saw roared through the metal and easily pierced through the ceiling of the passage.
A big black cat fell from the sky, followed by a large group of people jumping down from the cave entrance.
The originally spacious passage became somewhat crowded due to the sudden appearance of this group of people.
"Yeah, there are also indigenous residents. Are you guys not hurt?"
Huang noticed Fester and the other man, and immediately asked with a concerned smile.
Fester stared at everyone vigilantly, especially when he saw several Sarkaz operators including Kalciel in the team, he immediately blocked Lolo behind him.
"Who are you?" he asked in a deep voice.
Huang scratched his face, then obediently stepped aside and left the negotiation task to others.
Vina looked at the doctor, and the doctor looked at Amiya. Amiya did not look around, but cleared her throat and stepped forward and said:
"Hello, we are members of a pharmaceutical company called Rhode Island..."
"Rhodes Island again?!"
Before Amiya finished her self-introduction, Feste couldn't help but exclaimed.
Then he noticed his own faux pas and quickly apologized: "I didn't mean it, it's just that recently... uh, because of some things, I'm a little sensitive to the name of Rhodes Island."
"Because of Mr. Qi Yan?" Amiya immediately realized the essence of the problem, "How is he now?"
Fester did not let down his guard, protecting Luo Luo and explaining:
"He is very active. I don't know much about the rest. After all, I am not qualified to negotiate with him."
"Mr. Qi Yan..."
Amiya looked worried.
Fester was puzzled by her reaction.
Does someone of Qi Yan's level still need others to worry about him?
The doctor knew what Amiya was worried about, patted her shoulder and comforted her:
"The natural disaster over Londinium City is only in its infancy. Its impact on Qi Yan is still within an acceptable range. We have more important things to do."
