War Paradise

Chapter 558: The Underworld's Rules

Up to now, Lin Chi has a keen interest in the purpose of the incinerator.

The policies formulated by the rulers of this city, with their toes, know that there are problems, and the people who burned institutions must also know very well that these policies will arouse people's resistance.

——So why would they do this?

To find out what's going on, it's better to directly ask the members of the incineration organization.

Lin Chi knew very well that even if he continued to torture the patrolmen in the basement, he would not be able to get any reliable information. Unless you can catch the upper-level leaders of the incinerator, you will not be able to know the truth.

"Your expression is not quite right..." The corpse demon's voice interrupted Lin Chi's thoughts.

Lin Chi recovered, and saw the body of the patrolman staring at his godless eyes, staring at him worriedly. So he asked, "It's okay, where did we talk?"

"The people are disgusted with the rule of the burning institution." said the corpse demon.

"Oh, do you know why the incineration agency formulated such a policy?" Lin Chi asked.

"How do I know?" A distorted expression appeared on the corpse's gray face: "The bastard of the incineration mechanism, there seems to be a problem in the brain, and there is only one answer, right?"

When it comes to the burning mechanism, the previous flattery attitude of the corpse demon also disappeared, and the tone suddenly increased a little, and his fists were clenched tightly. It was obvious that he hated that organization penetrates the bone.

Seeing that the other party was filled with righteous indignation, Lin Chi did not continue to ask. After all, this guy didn't know what the leadership of the incineration agency thought, and it was just a waste of time to ask any more. and……

"Can I trouble you to guard the gate?" he said.

"Huh?" The corpse demon didn't react for a while.

"I'm going to bed." Lin Chi added again.

"Oh." The corpse demon understood what he meant, and immediately saluted, and said smoothly: "I will protect your safety!"

That being said, Lin Chi naturally wouldn't trust this entourage easily. He just opened a corner of the curtain and looked out the window to observe the situation outside.

At this time, the soldier in heavy armor and holding a flamethrower had already left the area, leaving the scorched ground and pale ashes. Thick smoke rose from the remains of the corpse in the street and drifted into the dark sky.

Following the corpse burners, several heavy trucks were slowly moving forward. A group of guys in dark overalls were collecting the burned corpses on the road in bags and throwing them into the back of the truck. .

Just by looking at their careless movements, you know that these people have long been accustomed to cleaning up dead bodies. It seems that the rebellion in the capital of The Underworld should have happened more than once. These workers are already very skilled in collecting corpses.

Seeing the team that cleaned up the corpses gradually moved away, Lin Chi gave the first instruction to the unreliable entourage he had just received:

"Go outside."

"Huh?" There was another surprised expression on the corpse's gray face: "It may be dangerous to go out now, I'm very weak!""I'll come back and knock on the door tomorrow morning. Get out soon." Lin Chi said, raising the AK and aiming at the opponent's head: "I don't like sleeping with a corpse."

"Okay, okay, you guys, don't shoot!" The Zombie Demon said in a smooth tone. Although he was a little reluctant, he left the apartment under Lin Chi's supervision and returned to the nearby alley.

After the guy got out, Lin Chi returned to the apartment and locked the door, lay down on the big bed in the bedroom, and soon lost consciousness.

...

Early the next morning, before dawn, the knock on the door from the door rudely awakened Lin Chi.

"anyone there--"

The male voice at the door stretched so long that you knew who it was without saying. Lin Chi rubbed his eyes and walked into the living room. The first thing that caught his eye was the small figure standing in the middle of the living room.

The "beautiful girl" with messy hair was standing motionless in the living room, her green eyes staring at the door without blinking, and the expression on her face was full of fear.

"It's...who?" Jane asked in a low voice.

"It's okay, it's my subordinate." Lin Chi casually explained, "Don't worry."

Even though he said that, Jane, who saw the battle on the street last night, was still a little worried and reminded: "Be careful."

"I see." Lin Chi said, standing in front of the door and looking through the cat's eyes, only to see the opponent's gray skin and flushing eyes.

"Open the door soon, it's going to dawn, I will die in the sun!" The voice of the corpse demon was very urgent.

Just after Lin Chi opened the door, the corpse demon rushed into the apartment, looked down at his bloodless skin with lingering fears, and then reached out and pressed his chest, confirming that there was no sign of melting, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

"Can I go to the basement to hide?" The corpse demon looked back at the gloomy window. Even though the sun hadn't risen yet, the light of dawn had already been cast in: "In case of sunlight, I will be finished..."

"Can't you change back?" Lin Chi looked at the face of the corpse.

"Do you think I want to do this? My original body was blown up by the debris of the burning mechanism." The corpse demon shook his head helplessly: "Now I can't go back, and it's impossible to go out in the daytime. As long as I encounter the sun, Those of us who are alienated will become mud!"

"So, what's the matter with alienation?" Lin Chi asked curiously.

When the corpse demon was about to explain, he suddenly stopped his gaze behind Lin Chi, and he was stunned. Lin Chi looked back and saw that Jane had come behind him without knowing when, her eyes widened in horror. The body of the patrolman looked at each other, and his whole body trembled slightly:

"Zombie..." the boy whispered.

"I'm not a zombie!" The corpse demon explained in a hurry: "It just happened to be attached to the dead person."

As soon as she said this, Jane's expression worsened. Before Lin Chi had time to explain, he rushed up the stairs and hid in the bedroom on the second floor, closing the door.

"That... is she okay?" The corpse demon pointed at where Zhen had disappeared.

"It's okay, why, do you still have this hobby?" Lin Chi asked angrily.

"No, no, I just thought of my daughter. She was almost this old when she got cancer." The corpse demon sighed, "Is that... your daughter?"

"That's it."

Lin Chi was too lazy to continue discussing this issue, but stood at the window and drew the heavy curtains to block the light from outside the house, then sat on the sofa and waved to the corpse demon who was still standing there:

"Before you sit down, change your clothes."

Hearing this, the corpse demon grabbed a set of coats next to him and put it on his body, then sat on the opposite sofa, exhaled a long breath of "death", and the rotten smell drifted over.

"Can you stop breathing?" Lin Chi said impatiently.

"The corpse does not need to breathe, I'm just used to it." The corpse demon said a little sorry and nodded, leaning on the sofa and slowly said: "What question do you want to ask? Please ask."

"I want to know why the residents in this city contract the disease of'alienation'." Lin Chi asked the first question.

"This is an infectious disease." The corpse demon quickly explained: "The mechanism of infection is unknown, but as long as you come to Holomansk, people will slowly become'alienated'. You should be careful... "

"Oh?" Lin Chi raised his eyebrows: "So you got it later?"

"Yes, I'm from Moscow. Don't look at me like this. I was handsome and handsome back then. When I was in school, there were no girls comrades chasing me." The corpse demon proudly stood up his rotten chest.

Listening to the lines of the corpse demon and the rotten face in front of him, Lin Chi managed to suppress the smile, resisting the urge to laugh wildly, and asked, "Then why are you here?"

"You tell me, I came here to pursue my beloved girl." At this point, the shape of a red heart appeared in the muddy eyes of the corpse demon: "I met her when I was studying in Moscow. She came from Holomansk and said she must come back here, so I followed."

"So why didn't you take her away?" Lin Chi asked.

"At the time I didn't know that this kind of thing would happen in the city." The corpse demon shook his head: "The city of Holomansk does not allow the aborigines to leave. Although I can go by myself, I cannot take my love away, so I chose to and She stayed with her."

Speaking of this, the corpse demon lowered her head in frustration: "Later, I learned that she had ran away secretly, and the reason she came back suddenly was also because of the insult of the institution and threatened her with the lives of her parents. I knew this was the case. if……"

"Okay, don't blame yourself." Lin Chi reminded: "We are still talking about alienation."

"Oh, you said alienation..."

The corpse demon came back to his senses and continued to speak: "When I first lived, my body was still normal, and then slowly began to be wrong. At that time, I was vomiting every day, my limbs were weak, my whole body was hot, and my hair fell out. ."

"I went to the hospital, but the doctor said that my body was okay, it was just a psychological effect. I really believed it at first, and it wasn't until one night that I realized that I started upgrading, and I realized that I had become a monster..."

"Then you went to ask your wife?" Lin Chi narrowed his eyes and could already imagine the situation at that time.

"Yes." The corpse demon laughed self-deprecatingly: "I went to ask her and learned about alienation. Guess what? This disease is normal in the local area, and most people will suffer from alienation. The abilities that come out are also different, it's like a'super power zoo'!"

"It's really strange." Lin Chi nodded in agreement.

It is unbelievable that so many "superpowers" appear in a city. Judging from the information provided by the corpse demon, even ordinary people who come here will slowly gain the ability to alienate.In addition, the symptoms mentioned by the corpse demon also made Lin Chi more concerned:

Vomiting, weakness of limbs, whole body fever and hair loss, seem to be common symptoms when people are exposed to large doses of radiation. But it stands to reason that if you are exposed to radiation for a long time, normal people should have died long ago, and there will be no such abnormal changes...

Recalling the abnormal behavior of the "Hunter" and the various weirdos in the mysterious and powerful Soviet superpower unit, Lin Chi pondered for a moment, and a terrifying inference slowly emerged in his mind:

——Is this city a testing ground for the "Soviet Superpower Force"?

According to some records in the real world, during the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union did form a mysterious superpower unit. In the record, the Soviets selected a group of superpowers from all over the country to form this powerful army.

There is no doubt that it will be very difficult to expand the size of this force through selection. After all, there are not many people with superpowers all over the street, and there are many swindlers who seek fame. Just relying on finding superpowers everywhere, the efficiency is too low.

Could it be said that the Soviet Union has found a way to cultivate "artificial superpowers" and then train them in this city? If this is the case, it can explain part of the mystery here...

"Are you okay?" The corpse demon's voice interrupted Lin Chi's thoughts again.

"It's okay." Lin Chi came back to his senses, looked at the other person's gray face, and asked the next question:

"Anything else about alienation?"

The corpse demon frowned and considered for a while, and then said: "I have heard a legend. When I used to drink with my neighbors, they often talked about it."

"What legend?" Lin Chi asked.

"I heard that there is an altar hidden underground in Holomansk. The alienation disease of the residents is actually a gift from the god." The corpse demon laughed out: "This is simply nonsense, what god will give people such thing?"

--Is that right?

Although the story mentioned by the corpse demon did sound very unreliable, Lin Chi vaguely felt that something was wrong.

If this legend is not groundless, it is reminiscent of Soviet history, and that so-called altar might really exist!

Thinking of this, Lin Chi asked quickly: "Do you have a map here?"

The map introduction when entering the game only said that the city is located on the shore of the Caspian Sea, and did not provide a specific location. Now he suddenly became interested in the specific location of this place.

Unfortunately, things will obviously not go so smoothly.

"No." The corpse demon shook his head: "The burning agency prohibits anyone from hiding maps, and locals are not allowed to leave the city. Recently, the investigation seems to be more stringent."

When the two were talking, the radio in the living room suddenly rang again, which shocked them all. A fanatical female voice came out of the speaker, which was more "imbostic" than the sound during the last broadcast:

"Good morning, residents, and welcome to listen to the city radio. The weather is fine today, and there is still a small amount of rubbish on the streets of some urban areas that has not been cleaned up. Please pay more attention when you travel."

"Repeat the local rule again: In order to avoid sexual suggestion, even in summer, when traveling, citizens must strictly abide by the regulations to wear coats and hats, and citizens who wear other clothes will be fined."

"In addition, please be careful to keep smiling in public, and it is strictly forbidden to spread negative emotions such as frustration and anger! Don't forget! Holomansk is a cheerful city, and we-don't need other emotions!"
