Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 16 Move away
Boxes, radiation, silos.

When these three elements are put together, Chen Jian really can't think of what else there could be.

At this time, other members of the Holy Blood Squad also gathered around, and after discovering this huge metal box, the expressions on their faces were full of surprise.

"There must be something in here."

Xu Lie moved closer to the box, sniffed and said:

"I smell a familiar metallic smell, the same as the shells used by the Mechanicus."

".Isn't it possible that the Mechanicus used lead bullets?"

Chen Jian shook his head speechlessly and said:

"There is most likely something inside, but the degree of danger is far beyond your imagination."

"Now it's not a question of whether to open it or not, but a question of whether we can survive if there is danger after opening it."

"What's in there? A trap?"

Xie Liu, who was standing nearby, crossed his arms and said this, with a hint of nervousness on his face.

"Can you survive?"

These words were too harsh, especially after seeing with one's own eyes a four-man team defeat a level 4 monster with their superior strength and firepower without even finding its weakness.

To be fair, even the elite of the Mechanicus would have to gather at least hundreds of elite men, plus their most proud cannon, to achieve such an effect, right?

But they were just four ordinary people, carrying some equipment they didn't understand, and they got the job done.
And now, the leader of these people said that they might die if they opened the box.

If things go wrong, you might really die.

She looked at Xu Lie, and before he could speak, she spoke again:

"Don't even think about moving!"

"Last time, we almost died in Jiangcheng because you opened the box!"

".But didn't I also find this pistol? It was worth it anyway."

Xu Lie's voice lowered. At this point, he didn't dare to make a decision and could only look at Chen Jian eagerly.

This feeling was actually quite unfamiliar to him. After all, as a Holy Blood, he always acted arrogantly in front of ordinary people.

But now?

Even opening a box requires careful consideration.

There's nothing you can do. They are just strong and you can only hold it in if you don't accept it.

But the problem is, he really wants to know what's inside.
Xu Lie was very anxious, but Zeng Yi and Li Shi were very calm.

They have their own combat system and do not rely too much on equipment or weapons, so their desire for new things is not that strong.

What they care about more is actually one thing: whether the things inside are valuable.

So for a while, the decision-making power fell on Chen Jian alone.

Go ahead, it's too risky.

not open
If the world’s top-level weapon is placed in front of you, can you resist using it?

He looked at the other members of his team and asked:
"What do you think?"

Lei Jie first stated:

"The box is so heavy that if you want to take it away you must open it and take only the contents - but I don't recommend opening it."

"If what comes out is a nuclear fuel rod, it's GG."

"Even if there are tactical nuclear warheads inside, we have no way to deliver them. Taking them back can only serve as a deterrent, which is not very meaningful."

"It's better to just leave it here and dig it out when needed."

"But we have to find a way to bury it properly, to prevent it from being taken away by others and accidentally detonated. That would be really fun."

"Indeed." "I agree."

Shen Yue and He Shuo nodded in turn, and their opinions were instantly unified.

Chen Jian stopped talking nonsense and gave the order decisively:
"Then let's get started. First, lift this thing up and put it on flat ground."

"clear."

The four of them worked together, each grabbing a corner of the box and trying desperately to lift it.

But the lead box was too heavy, and they had too much equipment, so they couldn't find a suitable point to hold it in place.

Li Shi, who was watching from the side, hesitated for a moment and asked:
"Do you need help?"

Chen Jian nodded immediately, and the latter walked to the lead box, put his hands around it, and picked it up.

Chen Jian was stunned.

After a pause, he said:
"No need to bury it."

"Let's take this thing directly to Jinling! I'll pay for the shipping!"

An hour later, the two teams of eight people left with a full harvest.

The Holy Blood Squad mostly picked up items they considered valuable, such as small pieces of gold and silver, well-preserved metal tools, batteries or things that looked like batteries, as well as messy cables and sundries.

According to them, these things can be sold for a good price in the settlement, especially the batteries. If they are in good working order, one battery can be worth dozens of grams of gold.

This actually meets Chen Jian's expectations. After all, it is something that can no longer be produced in this world, so it is normal for it to be a bit expensive.

However, Xu Lie brought back a lot of plastic, which made Chen Jian a little confused.

He didn't say what this thing was specifically used for, only that the Mechanicus would buy it and the price was good.

Chen Jian could only assume that they wanted to recycle and reuse the product, but the question was, did they have the technology to do so?

I don't understand.

Compared with the things picked up by the Holy Blood Team, the junk picked up by Chen Jian's team was relatively normal.

In addition to the magnets and coils necessary for subsequent power generation, they also found a broken engine. Although the bearings inside were a bit rusty, they were obviously still usable.

Xu Lie was indeed right, the monster's lair was the place with the richest resources in the entire area.

Most of those killed by monsters, along with the resources they carried with them, will be transferred here.

In the end times, most people will carry important things with them.

The whole logic can be said to be extremely smooth.
Unfortunately, they found no usable weapons and ammunition.

According to Chen Jian's estimation, even if there were weapons, they must have been buried at the bottom.

Because the sooner someone is killed, the more weapons they will have in their hands. This is inevitable.

If you want to obtain these weapons, you can only wait until you have large-scale machinery or enough manpower to dig graves and do archaeological excavations.
After leaving the cemetery, the eight people successfully left the tunnel.

When I saw the light of day again, the sun was already high in the sky.

The sunlight at this moment was no different from the sunlight Chen Jian saw in his world. The stars, which had nearly 50 billion years left in their lifespan, looked down silently at the humans on the ground who were like ants. Compared with its history, the life and death, rise and fall of these ants were just a fleeting moment.

Chen Jian lowered his head, somewhat regretting not bringing the solar panels that had just been distributed.

But now is not the time to think about this issue.

His equipment was out of power, their food was gone, and he needed energy more than his equipment.

So, he patted the staggering Xu Lie on the shoulder and asked:
"Is there anything to eat?"

Xu Lie raised his chin towards the monster corpse not far away and replied:
"Yes, I have."

"Isn't that what it is?"
