Chapter 132: 132

The second half of the night in Roguetown was nothing close to peaceful .

From time to time, the sounds of howling and cries for help were heard from different locations . It only ended just before daybreak . However, when the sun rose from the horizon and shed light on this town deep in the jungle, its scenery, which had once been famous for its sightseeing, had turned into something else .

The originally clean and neatly paved limestone street was now filled with debris and garbage . Pools of blood and trails of footprints of dried blood could be seen here and there .

Some of the roadside stalls had been smashed, and the goods inside were a total mess . Some of the walls were painted black with dried bloodstains . It seemed as if some creature had invaded the place or someone had fled and hid here last night .

A patrol car that had lost communication was seen driving along the streets . It kept using the built-in speakers to announce that the events of the night before had been caused by a monster intrusion, and it had been taken care of . The voice claimed that there was no need to panic .

However, these efforts were in vain . For as soon as dawn broke, all the tourists took their luggage and rushed to the exit points outside town .

Roguetown was severely damaged .

“Won’t we be at risk of being exposed as soon as all these people leave?” Mu Zi said with a low voice as he walked through the streets with Feng Luo and Sister Rui .

“That is, if they manage to leave,” Feng Luo said calmly, shaking his head . “If they can shut down communications, the only exit point to leave the town will most likely be shut too . As for the reason, it’s obvious . ”

For an entity like Umbrella Corporation, if they wanted to suppress the news, they wouldn’t stop at simply cutting off communications .

Mu Zi came to a sudden realization . “That’s true . The NPCs in this game are not as dumb as those in other games . By the way, Brother Feng, how did you manage to get that information?” he asked in confusion and excitement . “If I’m not mistaken, you’ve hardly left your room these days, so it isn’t possible that you were out gathering intel . Why do you act as if everything was under control?”

Sister Rui was curious about it too . Last night, when everyone was arguing and unable to come to a consensus, this young Brother Feng had thrown out one piece of information after another that no one had had any clue about . He had stunned everyone, and they had decided on today’s plan based on his information .

“For now… let it remain a secret!” Feng Luo said .

He smiled . He wasn’t ready to tell anyone about the existence of 24K because he had just realized how rare it was to obtain a pet in War .

It had been a week since the last update . Since then, plenty of players had attempted pet missions in order to be rewarded with a pet . However, the results had left many speechless .

Not only was the difficulty of the mission beyond imagination, but it was very time-consuming . On the other hand, the completion rate was extremely low—less than one-tenth . More importantly, the pet biochip rewarded was the lowest-ranked chip . It could only be used to control some Normal monsters with low intelligence levels .

Pet biochips that could control Elite or higher-ranked monsters were not attainable through missions . They only spawned from a killed monster that was controlled by the rebel army .

Needless to say, the occurrence of such an event was dreadfully scarce!

Currently, the price of such a pet biochip had surpassed that of a Rare, decently attributed equipment . As for a pet biochip that could control a Commander-grade monster, the price was more than 1,000,000 credits per chip . They were priceless due to the high demand, and it was impossible to purchase one through the Exchange .

If news of him having a Boss-grade pet was leaked, he would be noticed by many . Worse still, all of War would know about the Golden King Beetle .

It could bring him fame, but that was certainly not a good thing .

Feng Luo shook his head and said to both of them, “Brother Lin and his men formed three teams to the hospital and a few other places . Our target is only the guard station . ”

The three of them were heading toward the town’s guard station . Due to the chaos the night before, no one was watching them anymore . After three days, the players could finally move freely .

According to what Feng Luo had heard from Wesker, the guard station was definitely an important location for the Umbrella Corporation . Hence, he had decided to make it their first target . That was because Feng Luo had figured something out .

The obese Director Locke might be the key to the completion of this city building mission . He knew the most secrets about Umbrella Corporation in all of Roguetown .

Feng Luo noticed that they were in a blind spot . So far, they had only been thinking about evidence in the form of materials . They even thought about recording the crime scene through the terminal . They had not considered that if they could find someone to testify, it would be just as effective .

The fat director had accepted a huge amount of bribes to help the company in many ways . He must have had some insider information . This had been confirmed by the two conversations he had tapped via the scout beetle . If he could testify against Umbrella Corporation, half of the city-building mission would be considered done .

However, it would be very difficult to get him to open his mouth under normal circumstances .

From what they understood, the squad was made up of about 100 guards, and the director always stayed in the guard station . Forget about making a deal with him; it was difficult to even meet him . However, the guard station was at risk of being under attack tonight, so most of the personnel might be transferred to some other place . This could potentially provide a chance for them .

******

“The situation seems to be really bad . The guards have been busy the entire morning . ”

It was past noon, and Feng Luo, Mu Zi, and Sister Rui were pretending to leisurely enjoy their afternoon tea on the second floor of a cafe situated right across from the guard station . At this hour, they were the only customers . The cafe was extremely quiet .

The cafe was right across the guard station . Perhaps this was the reason why the owner wasn’t too paranoid about being open for business after what had happened last night .

“The exit point is closed,” Mu Zi whispered . “The reason is that there is a huge crater in the runaway, which can only be fixed by tomorrow morning . Many tourists were forced to return to the town . ”

“Little Feng, this was obviously done by Umbrella Corporation!” Sister Rui exclaimed softly . “Looks like they might have another Evolution Virus testing on a much larger scale tonight!”

“Anyway, try to be safe and stay away from the zombies,” Feng Luo said as he eyed the guard station . “If you are bitten by them, contact me immediately . I have some antidote in my bag . They need to be stored at a low temperature, so I can only give it as needed . ”

“All right!” Sister Rui nodded .

“Hey, someone is coming!”
