MTL - Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine (Deep Ocean Survival: A Submarine From The Start)-Chapter 183 Pollution occurs
In the final analysis, Meng Lei and his party entered the city this time, which could be regarded as illegal immigration.
In the case of a complete closure of the city, it was possible to sneak in rashly, thanks to the release of the two security officers who had accepted bribes.
Although, such behavior does not constitute any crime.
But after all, it is on the land of the Moken family. Once it is found out, there will inevitably be some troubles.
Therefore, in Meng Lei's view, it would be too ostentatious for everyone to get together and act together.
In order to keep a low profile, it is better to act separately.
"If you're looking for a guide..."
Facing Meng Lei's inquiry, Hans scratched his head, pondered for a while and said:
"When I came here with the bounty fleet before, the captain contacted the guides in advance. I rarely searched for ready-made ones locally. I don't know where the guides who are familiar with the route are hidden, but..."
Having said that, Hans changed the subject and continued:
"However, the bars in Modo City are usually the places with the most information. If you go there to inquire, you should gain something."
"bar…"
Hearing this, Meng Lei nodded thoughtfully.
It seems that not only Blue Star's bar is an important source of information for the local intelligence network, but also on Alien Star.
Especially in this chaotic place where fish and dragons are mixed together, the bar is the center where all kinds of information gather.
"Then, which is the biggest bar in Modo City?"
Modo City can be called a small magic capital. Apart from chaos, it is also a gold-selling cave for luxury and luxury. It is a well-known extravagant place in the 66671 waterway.
There must be more than one place like a bar here.
Since you want to inquire about news, it is natural to go to the one with the largest scale and the best business.
"The biggest bar..." Hans didn't hesitate this time, he was obviously very familiar with the bars here, and he almost blurted out: "Of course it's the Soho bar!"
"Soho bar?"
Hearing this, Meng Lei was startled suddenly.
He is not unfamiliar with this name, he just heard it not long ago, the middle-aged security officer once invited him to have a drink after changing the guard.
"Yeah, the Soho Bar at the intersection of Dwight Avenue and Windoko Street is the largest bar in Modo City, and it's not much different from the bar in Searle City. Most of the pirates and bounties After hunters make money, they will go there to spend some money, and if they want to inquire about information, Soho Bar is definitely a good place to go."
Talking about the Soho Bar, Hans seemed a little excited, as if he was full of longing for it, and had some aftertaste.
Meng Lei smiled slightly, waved his hand and said:
"Okay, since you've said that, let's start with the Soho bar first to see if we can find a suitable candidate."
With that said, Meng Lei turned to look at Zhang Chao who was at the side, and explained:
"You take a team to the shipyard to inquire about submarine maintenance and other matters. We will split up. After the discussion, everyone will meet at the bar and discuss the next step."
"Yes!"
Zhang Chaozhong nodded emphatically, and asked Hans carefully about the specific route to the shipyard.
Afterwards, the teams that had just entered the city were divided into two groups.
One team, led by Zhang Chao, walked quickly towards the shipyard, and the other team followed Meng Lei, and continued to walk along the deserted metal corridor towards the Soho Bar.
The people who entered the city this time, including Meng Lei, were a total of sixteen people, most of whom were core members of the Chongming Fleet and possessed high combat literacy.
Even if there is an emergency, it can be dealt with calmly.
However, before they parted, out of safety considerations, Meng Lei gave another special warning.
If you encounter a strange phenomenon that cannot be dealt with, don't panic. On the premise of ensuring the safety of the team, rush to the bar as soon as possible to join the big team.
Finally, at the gate of the large gate leading to the inner city area, the two groups parted ways.
Meng Lei led a group of Hans and Huo Ye, turned around from the outer passage, and finally came to the interior of Modo City.
As soon as you enter the door, the faint smell of the sea is mixed with the rotten stench, like smoke blowing over your face.
Obviously, the air quality in the city is not much better than that of the docks, so it can be inferred that the environment in the city may not be much better either.
Meng Lei called on everyone to be more vigilant, and under the guidance of Hans, he led the crowd to the city.
When we got here, the number of pedestrians gradually increased, and finally it was no longer as deserted as the outer area.
It's just that the passers-by I saw along the way seemed to be in a bad state of mind.
Not only does his complexion look extremely bad, but his movements are also like walking dead, very stiff and slow, and extremely numb to the external environment, like a mentally ill patient living in his own imaginary world, not interested in anything other than himself.
Along the way, Meng Lei saw many such people.
Under the tall and precise metal dome, there seems to be a thick cloud of sorrow, covering every corner of Modo City, making the whole city look lifeless and seriously lacking in vitality.
"This place is far different from what I imagined. It's almost the same as the slums in the lower city of Searle."
Walking on a wet and muddy metal floor.
Withered seaweed mixed with gravel, as well as rotting fish that occasionally appeared in the field of vision, were all over the periphery of the city.
Meng Lei frowned slightly, affected by the environment, even his mood was much worse.
"It used to be very clean here, and it was cleaned regularly every day to prevent the growth of bacteria and cause hidden dangers to the health of residents. The reason why it has become like this..."
Hans sighed, looked at the metal sky tens of meters above his head, and said in a deep voice:
"This should all be caused by the earthquake, coupled with the influence of hallucinations, the lack of manpower in the city for reconstruction work, which led to the chaos of the little devils in the past.
However, this place is still in the peripheral area after all, even before the flood, it was still a place where the bottom-level residents were active.
When we got to the inner central area, the situation should get better. "
Meng Lei shook his head helplessly, did not answer, and continued to move forward into the depths of the city in silence.
The architectural environment and style of Modo City are different from any city Meng Lei has visited before, such as Syl City or even the Rongyan Outpost.
Those cities stood in the huge cavities of the rock formations, and belonged to the integrated architectural style. Standing on a high place, you can have a panoramic view of the whole city at a glance.
But Modo City is not the case. It is composed of many scattered dome-style buildings, and angular and brutalist grand buildings.
Each other is connected by countless large metal passages.
These passages are the main traffic routes of the city, and no matter which area they go to, they have to go through one gate after another.
And several of the most important large-scale passages, like ordinary streets, have been given special names.
Like Dwight Avenue, and Wendock Street, and Arthur Street and Holy Avenue.
Hans led Meng Lei and the others through various passages, passing through Carpenter Avenue and Wenshu Road, and walked from east to west for no less than 20 minutes.
Finally, after passing through the gate at the end of Wenshou Passage, they came to the central area of Modo City.
The moment the gate opened, everyone's eyes suddenly opened up.
The domed ceilings of various sizes disappeared, replaced by a colorful neon sky.
Many tall cylindrical buildings stand in the center of the city, and a series of complex and dense air corridors are interspersed between the various buildings, and a large number of figures can be seen shaking.
There was an endless stream of chaotic and noisy shouts, and various advertising slogans and deafening music filled every corner.
This magical city standing in the hinterland of the hydrothermal wasteland has finally shown its vibrant side, which is dazzling.
However, you can find it when you look up at the sky.
Behind the neon glittering metal sky, there are a lot of obvious repair marks, and in some places, water columns can even be seen dripping down like hanging fountains.
The various billboards on the top of those buildings also showed varying degrees of damage.
Some are still flashing dazzling electric sparks, such as fireworks.
The deck floor here is also tidal, but compared with the outer area, the ground is much cleaner.
At least on the surface, there are no smelly and rotting corpses, and withered and rotting seaweed.
But in the corners of the city, the shadows of these sundries can still be vaguely seen, obviously not being cleaned up completely.
"The old tea salvaged from the shipwreck is sold at a low price. It's the real thing. If you want to buy it, hurry up!"
"If you want to go to the Barona colony to participate in the Velociraptor competition, come and have a look. Fresh dragon eggs have arrived, don't wait until they are out of date!"
…
There are many shops on both sides of the street, and there is an endless stream of hawking. The business scope is very wide, and the merchants warmly greet passers-by.
Here, you can see a lot of guys in fancy clothes, very rough and different, wandering the streets in groups of three or four, constantly going in and out of various shops.
These people, obviously either bounty hunters or pirates, are the main group that roam the area.
Meng Lei took a deep breath, slightly shocked.
The gloomy clouds on the outskirts of the city didn't seem to penetrate here, and it was a bustling and lively scene.
"Little Devil's City is well-deserved of its reputation. Even though it has just experienced an earthquake and flood, it is still so prosperous. Even the closure of the city has not had any impact on the economic development of the core area."
Huo Ye looked around in a daze, and couldn't help sighing.
The eyes of the other accompanying people were also bright, surprised by the sights in the city center and full of desire to explore.
Meng Lei was the first to realize that although he was very curious about the things sold in the shops on the street and wanted to patronize them, he kept the mission and goal of this trip in mind and did not want to waste precious time.
At that moment, Meng Lei turned sideways slightly, and whispered to several people:
"After finishing the business, let's take a good stroll in the city. Now, let's go to the bar to find out the situation."
"Yes!"
Hearing this, everyone put away their emotions and nodded in agreement.
"Captain, come, this way!"
As the living map of everyone, Hans has been leading the way, and at the same time he did not forget to introduce Meng Lei.
"The gate in front is the entrance to Dwight Avenue. After entering Dwight Avenue and going north, it is Wenduoke Street. The Soho Bar is at the corner of the entrance of Wenduoke Street. You can see it when you go out. .”
Meng Lei nodded silently, recalled the route he had traveled all the way in his heart repeatedly, made a plan, and formed a map engraved in his mind, so that he would not lose his way when needed.
Continue to move towards the destination, and everyone walks through various crowds.
Along the way, although they were dressed in uniform and looked very different in the crowd, they only attracted some sideways glances, and no one took the initiative to find fault or strike up a conversation.
At the same time, the hallucination phenomenon mentioned by the middle-aged security officer did not seem to happen in the crowd.
Everything here appears to be quite normal, not like the weird and frequent occurrences that the middle-aged security officer said.
This made Meng Lei feel a little puzzled.
Could it be that the source of spiritual pollution in the nearby sea has disappeared and will no longer affect Modo City?
With doubts, Meng Lei continued to move forward with the team.
At a certain moment, when everyone came near the gate at the entrance of Dwight Avenue, Meng Lei, who was deep in thought, was suddenly awakened by a scream.
The voice sounded not far in front, shrill and hoarse.
As if a person is being tortured, there is a hint of hysteria in the despair.
Meng Lei came back to his senses and hurriedly looked closely.
Outside the gate at the entrance to Dwight Avenue, there was a young man in electrician uniform with a tool bag slung over his shoulder, half kneeling on the ground crying, and crazily hitting the ground deck with his head.
His expression was painful, as if he had a sudden illness, and he became desperate and crazy under the panicked and surprised eyes of everyone around him.
At the same time, he kept yelling.
"Don't come, don't come, get out, get out!"
While shouting, the man struggled to get up from the ground, desperately rushed towards the gate at the entrance of Dwight Avenue.
He walked very fast, but staggered, as if something terrible was chasing him behind him.
[The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who has known me for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It’s really easy to use. I use it to read and listen to books to pass the time while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here]
This sudden scene immediately interrupted everyone's progress.
Meng Lei and his party froze in place, looking at each other, no one knew what happened.
At this moment, someone among the passing crowd suddenly shouted:
"That guy has hallucinations, he is cursed, there is pollution here, everyone run!"
As soon as the voice fell, the crowd that was still bustling at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com a moment ago, suddenly seemed to have a rotten egg erupting, and fled in all directions in a hurry.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the bustling streets were empty, and the crowd of onlookers ran away.
"I...go...what's the situation?!"
Meng Lei and the others were also shocked, and they were a little confused for a while.
Meng Lei reacted the fastest, and immediately realized what was going on, and was about to pull everyone out of the area immediately.
At this moment, Meng Lei suddenly felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the scene around him was distorted for an instant.
When he looked around again, he suddenly noticed that the young electrician who had just left walked out of the gate at the entrance of Dwight Avenue.
However, at this moment, there are some strange changes around him...
