Chapter 57: Beep Beep
"Mona, be careful, that's hot liquid. But it seems to be different from what I remember. The hot liquid in front of me is a little green."

"Huh? You know about hot liquid?"

"Yeah, I have a friend who has seen hot fluid."

Hearing this, Mona's figure trembled slightly, and she said faintly:

"A friend again. The friend you are talking about can't be yourself."

Li Nuo laughed awkwardly, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's get away from it before the hot liquid finds us."

Monsters like hydrothermal fluids are unreasonable.

When stationary, it looks like a pool of water emitting white steam, which is very deceptive.

The flesh and blood of anyone who comes into contact with it will be quickly dissolved by it and turned into its nutrients, leaving behind only a set of metal protective gear that the hot liquid does not like.

The hydrothermal body is composed of hot fluid and nerve clusters.

A mosquito-sized cluster of nerves is its only weak point.

The people in the ruins area were not good at shooting and could not accurately hit the hydrothermal nerve clusters, so there were rumors that hydrothermal could not be killed by bullets and lasers.

Mona is a sharpshooter and can use her psychic powers to manipulate metal objects. Her shooting accuracy is off the charts, so destroying the hot liquid is no problem.

But there are surveillance cameras and armed personnel watching nearby, so it is better to keep a low profile and avoid trouble.

The two men stood up silently and moved slowly in the standard front and back stance.

Mona was responsible for guiding the direction of travel, while Li Nuo observed the rear to avoid being attacked by hot liquid.

The beeping alarm sounded again.

The two of them paused, looked around, and a chill rose in their hearts.

Three hot liquids came into view, located on the top of the tank, in the pipe, and on the floor.

They wandered aimlessly, like night owls out for a late-night snack.

Don't be fooled by the illusion of slowness. The hot liquids that enter combat state are as fast as mad dogs, and ordinary people can't get rid of them at all.

Fortunately, hydrothermal agents search for prey mainly by sensing heat sources.

The armor on Li Nuo has a special coating that can shield its own heat source, so it was not discovered by the hydrothermal fluid. The same is true for Mona.

Mona murmured softly:

“Isn’t there too much hydrothermal fluid in this desalination zone? I feel like the little green dots in their bodies are controlling their movements.”

"I have the same feeling." Li Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly, aimed at the green dot and cast the identification spell, his expression became a little stunned.

My God, this is yet another kind of psychic fungus of unknown name, and its effect is forced enslavement of hydrothermal fluid.

What's going on with this factory?

Could it be that I ran into my father's garden?
Li Nuo forced himself to calm his mind and refused to let his imagination run wild.

He raised his head and scanned the rails, mechanical arms, and pipes on the ceiling:

"I suspect that the desalination area has been transformed into an unmanned area, with robotic arms replacing workers. These hydrothermal fluids are security guards. As for the small green dots in their bodies, they should be the residues of some kind of drug that can restrain their actions."

"That makes sense. I agree with your judgment." Mona asked:
"What's your plan? Wait for the hydrothermal fluid to leave before taking action, or be more aggressive and kill them?"

Why do I feel like I'm being tested? Well, it seems this is also one of the tests for trainee agents to become full-time agents.

Li Nuo pointed his gun at the hot liquid in front of the two people:

"I'll use my psychic power to control it. Let's go around it while it's stunned."

"Good idea, let's do it." Mona turned sideways and exchanged positions with Li Nuo.

Li Nuo came to the front of the team, locked his eyes on the hot liquid on the ground, and cast a brain freeze spell.

【You are about to use Brain Freeze on "Hot Fluid".】

[The consumption this time is 3 kg of stupid mushrooms. 】

【Are you sure about the consumption? 】

3 kg is not a lot.

There is a full ton of stupid mushrooms stored in the fungus warehouse, which is definitely enough.

Li Nuo silently said "confirm".

The hot liquid froze.

Li Nuo patted Mona on the shoulder, signaling her to follow him.

The two of them bypassed the hot liquid that had caused their brains to freeze and turned into another corridor.

Mona said in the communication channel:
"The results of the three-point positioning method analysis are out. Princeton's communication signal is in the transformation zone. We will go there and join the other three groups."

"Okay, let's go."

Holographic vision provides a route map with the shortest distance to the conversion zone.

The two men shuttled through the winding corridor, step by step approaching the gate guarded by armed personnel.

Seven armed men were on high alert, staying within ten meters of the gate at all times, closely monitoring the corridors and surveillance screens.

Li Nuo felt that if the two of them just walked over like that, they might be shot into pieces.

Mona already has a solution.

When passing by a surveillance camera, she stopped, took out the data pad from her armor and connected it to the surveillance camera.

Looking at the red warning message refreshed on the data board, Mona shook her head slightly:

"Someone has set up an additional firewall for the local meditators, and I can't hack in. I'll ask Father Tutkari for remote support. Wait for me a minute." "Negative ///Corrected //Response time will be less than 10 seconds." Father Tutkari's voice suddenly cut into the communication channel:

"Judged as: inferior data encryption method///Cracked//Please punish those who desecrate the sacred code on my behalf///Communication ended."

The red warning message on the data pad disappeared, replaced by green characters symbolizing success.

Li Nuo was surprised by the mechanical priest's response speed, and then he remembered that these engine oil guys had half a computer in their brains, so it was normal for them to have such a fast response ability.

Mona was not surprised by the priest's efficiency.

She operated a few times on the data pad, switching the surveillance footage from the armed personnel's perspective to a false scene, and then called up the surveillance cameras near the gate to observe the enemy.

In the picture, behind the temporary barrier built with metal baffles and cement bags, seven strong men wearing dark blue armor are on guard with guns.

Mona zoomed in, and the armor styles and weapon shapes in the image became clearer.

"It should be weapons and equipment privately produced by an illegal arsenal. The traces of hand-crafting are obvious. The power of the laser rifle is about 1.2 times that of the law enforcer's standard weapon. The armor is made of bulletproof plastic and a small amount of plastic steel."

Mengna observed it carefully, put away the data board, and gave Li Nuo an encouraging look:

"They can't penetrate our armor. Just go for it, and make it quick."

"Okay, I'll take the lead." Li Nuo touched the mirror shield device on his left forearm to appease the possible machine soul.

Praise Ohm Messiah, the Mirror Shield must not fail at the critical moment.

Take a deep breath and let go of distracting thoughts.

Li Nuo picked up the laser rifle, lowered his center of gravity, used the base of the tank as a cover, and accelerated forward in the aisle.

Soon, the two came to the right-angle bend directly opposite the gate.

Li Nuo and Meng Na looked at each other, counted to three silently, then stepped hard on the ground and took off.

The armed man spotted a figure coming out from behind the corner, and quickly raised his laser rifle and shouted.

Before he shouted the first word, Li Nuo raised his left hand and waved it in front of him, launching a series of brain-stiffening techniques.

A pantomime was performed near the gate. Seven armed men looked dazed, their eyes were out of focus, and the weapons in their hands turned into fire sticks.

Take advantage of the enemy's illness and kill him!
Li Nuo pressed the trigger of the laser rifle, and an ice-blue laser beam shot out.

The wavelength of this ray is outside the absorption window of explosive gases, which can avoid detonating leaked explosive gases, and the lethality will not be reduced too much.

With a buzzing sound, the beam of light pierced through a person's head, leaving a round hole that instantly charred.

Before Li Nuo could turn the gun to aim at the next target, a series of blue lights shot out from behind him.

“Buzz buzz buzz——”

The laser storm draws a fan-shaped plane, and each ray of light accurately hits the vital part of the target.

In just three seconds, all seven armed men were killed.

Li Nuo only got one head from beginning to end.

"Mona, what stage is your genetic modification project at?"

"Phase 3. What's going on?"

"No wonder your aiming speed is so fast." Li Nuo shook his head and sighed.

Mona chuckled and walked towards the gate, "Come and help me keep watch. I'll open this door."

The two came to the door.

The gate's control panel is on the inside of the door. There are no keyholes or card readers on the outside, and the door hinges are also wrapped in hard wall skin.

Breaking the door violently was the only option for the two.

Mona pulled out a pipe from the fusion battery pack and connected it to the agent version of the laser rifle, continuously supplying power to the laser rifle, and then switched the rifle's mode to laser cutting mode.

“Sizzle, sizzle—”

The ice-blue rays penetrated the door panel of the gate, and the laser beam steadily and slowly cut out a gap.

Li Nuo took the auspicious instrument and scanned the terrain behind the door:
"An anti-electromagnetic layer has been added to this door and the walls on both sides, so the auspicious device cannot scan the environment behind it. The monitoring route inside the door is also not compatible with the desalination area, so we cannot see the scene there through monitoring. In short, I failed to obtain the holographic map behind the door."

"It doesn't matter. You'll know once I open the door."

"Ok."

Li Nuo put away the auspicious instrument and stood guard with his gun, but he still felt uneasy.

He thought about it, opened the system interface, and activated the bacterial ability - vibration sensing.

"Zizzizi!"

The sound of laser cutting became noisy. Li Nuo frowned subconsciously and resisted the urge to move away from Mona.

"Dong dong dong..."

Muffled sounds came from behind the door.

It seemed as if something was approaching them both quickly, with heavy steps.

Li Nuo listened carefully and confirmed that he only heard the footsteps of one person.

When this person was close enough to the gate, the third voice entered Li Nuo's head.

“Ding ding ding ding ding ding————”

The ringing sounded like a death knell, sharp and urgent!

Li Nuo's heart trembled, and he quickly hugged Mona and rolled to the side.
