Alien Relic Hunter

Ke Lan and the others have known for a long time that there is collusion between the heretical sect and the top management of Ark. The forces they have penetrated are far more than just the Arasaka Consortium, and there are many more people secretly supporting them.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand the mentality of these people. Even for them, the dogma of the heretical sect itself is not attractive at all. As long as the founder of the heretical sect is still alive, there will never be a shortage of chips in this transaction-just by virtue of This person's ability is enough to create huge benefits for these people and the forces behind them.

Not everyone can resist this temptation.

"We'll check this thing after we get back. If it doesn't work, just leave it to the people from the Security Bureau and give them a headache." Ke Lan said to Layton.

"Well, the people from the Security Bureau are not short of money. This information should be sold for a good price." Lei Dun paused and continued, "It's just... I don't know their people, and I don't have much contact with them. Crossing paths..."

"I know, I will handle this matter." After Ke Lan finished speaking, he squatted down, grabbed the mercenary's shoulders, and asked: "You just said that your mission is to find a jar, can you describe it? Details on this jar?”

"The jar... I don't know the details of the jar..." the mercenary said.

"Your mission is to find that jar, but you don't even know what the jar looks like?" Ke Lan was speechless.

"The employer didn't tell us, he just asked us to follow these exiles... I only heard a few words when they were chatting... It should be close to two meters, about the thickness of two people hugging each other The cylindrical jar may be made of glass or quartz... They don't seem to be sure about the color, they just said it was either black or dark brown..." the mercenary tried to recall.

"Then did they say what was in the jar?" Ke Lan continued to ask.

"No." The mercenary shook his head repeatedly.

"Think about it again..." Ke Lan patted the mercenary on the back, "The reason you are still conscious now is because I injected you with two milligrams of adrenaline. As for your actual situation, Do you want to know?"

The mercenary did not speak, but looked at Ke Lan with fear on his face, and his white lips trembled involuntarily.

"Then let me tell you," Ke Lan asked and answered to himself, "Your legs were all blown off below the knees, but unfortunately the wounds did not sinter. Even if the risk of infection is not taken into account, you are now The total blood loss has exceeded 30%, and I did not help you stop the bleeding, the blood is still flowing out, and you may go into shock at any time due to excessive blood loss."

Ke Lan stretched out a finger, dipped a finger into the blood that had gathered into a small puddle under the mercenary's body, and smeared the thick plasma on his face.

"In addition, there are multiple metal fragments embedded in your back, chest and abdomen. If you don't deal with it immediately..."

"Help...save me...please..." Before Ke Lan finished speaking, the mercenary began to plead.

"I also want to save you, but we don't have many medical supplies. If we waste them on you, if one of us gets injured later, wouldn't there be nothing left to use? Unless you can prove that you are useful, I will let you live, otherwise why would I treat someone who has nothing to do with me... No, to be precise, he should be in a hostile position with me?"

"I'm useful! I'm useful! I can tell you the route out, as long as you can get through the blocked one -"

"Not enough, not enough at all." Ke Lan interrupted him and said, "This little thing is not enough to buy your life. Moreover, you are still lying until now. Why should I save an enemy who is full of lies? Save Are you coming down and waiting for you to find an opportunity to trap us to death?"

Ke Lan's words seemed to instantly penetrate the mercenary's psychological defense. He was stunned for a moment, and then burst into tears: "I'm sorry! Please give me a chance! I can say anything! I can say anything - in fact We have already obtained the jar! It’s just that there were some accidents during the process, so a lot of time was wasted, causing the retreat to be more than half an hour later than scheduled... The jar was buried in the collapsed passage! "

"Oh? Then why didn't you tell me from the beginning?" Ke Lan asked.

"I...because...because the employer only paid us 30% of the deposit...the remaining money will have to wait until the items are received..."

"Oh, I understand. Your teammates are all dead anyway. If you can deceive us and get out alive, and then find a way to come back and take the jar, you can swallow the rest of the reward by yourself. Right? I think that must be an irresistible number, otherwise you wouldn't fight for it and want to keep this secret, am I right? "

"As long as you get that jar, you can get the money. The employer only wants the things. He doesn't care who completes the task, whether that person is a mercenary or a relic hunter -" the mercenary said, " I have told you everything, please save me! I don’t want to die yet..."

"Actually, I also lied to you. I helped you stop the bleeding just now. Otherwise, do you think you can survive with only one epinephrine?" Ke Lan said, "It's just that we don't have plasma on hand. If you want to live, , it depends on whether we can escape from this place."

Ke Lan stood up and said to the hound: "It seems that we discovered something extraordinary this time."

"Could there be something like the Seed of Corrosion in that jar... By the way, how do you know this guy is lying?" Hound asked in a low voice.

"Time difference." Ke Lan replied.

"Time difference?"

"Just like when we divided into two teams to attack these mercenaries, as an ambush team, we had to wait until your feint attack team took action before we could take action. And your feint attack team had to make sure that we were in place before we could take action." Ke Lan Explained, "The same goes for these people. When an armed convoy attacks the sinkhole camp and observation station, there will inevitably be a firefight, and explosions and vibrations will trigger avalanches. This is something that the planners of the plan could not have failed to consider.

In order not to be tricked by their teammates, the other team had to enter the ruins, get things, and complete the evacuation before the convoy launched the attack... The mercenary also said that it was because of some accidents that caused them to miss the mission. The planned retreat time was stuck here. Otherwise, they would have left the ruins before we fell into the abyss. "

Ke Lan continued: "Since the heretical sect already knows the existence of the secret passage, it is impossible for an accident to happen when entering this part of the ruins... To say the least, even if there is an accident, time should be set aside to solve the problem, but Only after people like them enter the ruins can things deviate from the planned trajectory."

"Then how are you sure they've found the jar?"

"That's what he said himself. I only know that he was lying... Regardless of whether they found the jar or not, it was definitely not like what he said - 'a landslide occurred just after entering the secret passage'."

At this time, Leiton came over from a distance and shook his head at Ke Lan: "The passageway this guy mentioned was found, but it is very tightly blocked and cannot be dug with our current methods - This road won’t work.”
