Chapter 7 The Secret of District 9
"What the hell is that?!"
Qin Mo fired several lasers at the attackers who had surrounded him, but unfortunately the laser pistols were too weak and could only cause them minor damage.
Even more shockingly, a humanoid monster, whose right leg had been broken by Qin Mo's laser beam, seemed completely unharmed, dragging its broken leg and lunging at them with both hands gripping the ground.
The hooded man pulled a military fragmentation grenade from his pocket and threw it at the dense group of monsters. With a loud bang, the powerful shockwave slightly slowed down the monsters' attack.
The three quickly huddled together, preparing for the next attack.
Qin Mo took the opportunity to observe carefully. These freaks who had shed their skin had smooth bodies and huge mouths that were far larger than those of ordinary people. Inside, their sharp teeth were interlocked, making them look extremely ferocious.
Several wounded monsters stared intently at Qin Mo, showing no fear whatsoever, their eyes filled with ferocity.
"These are the mutants who have taken over District 9?" the masked woman asked with a hint of curiosity.
Qin Mo glanced at her. As far as he could see, these strange people were unlike any kind of mutants he knew. Of course, considering the complex ecological environment and excessive radiation in the nest, it wouldn't be surprising to see any kind of monsters.
The next moment, he heard the hooded man reply in a muffled voice: "They can't really be called mutants. These monsters seem to have no intelligence, can't communicate, and only have animal instincts."
"Of course, they are also fearless in the face of death."
"roar!"
As soon as the hooded man finished speaking, the monsters seemed to be stimulated by something and rushed towards Qin Mo and the others again.
"laugh!"
A blazing laser beam struck from the sky once again, and the three-headed monster at the forefront was pierced and knocked down by the same laser.
Three hits in one shot!
Qin Mo looked back and saw the figure of the short Hack flash past a building.
Having suffered repeated losses at Hack's hands, the strange men immediately dispatched a portion of their forces to chase after the Lightning people.
"A good opportunity."
Qin Mo's heart stirred. These monsters were fearless and a stalemate would eventually lead to trouble. He seized the opportunity and fired his laser gun at several monsters in succession, creating an opening.
The three-person team immediately and instinctively rushed into the town through the gap.
Qin Mo took a moment to scan his surroundings. Countless monsters burst forth from every building in sight, rushing towards their location like a raging tidal wave.
Come here!
Upon seeing Qin Mo and the others break through the encirclement, Hake, who was not far away, immediately shouted.
Qin Mo and the others didn't have time to think much and quickly moved toward the source of the sound, only to see Hake hiding in a semi-concealed cave entrance, firing at the outside world.
The hooded man threw another fragmentation grenade, forcing back the monster chasing Hack. The group then squeezed into the hole behind Hack.
Qin Mo glanced around and saw that the cave was deep and seemed to lead to a very far place.
"Where does this tunnel lead?" the veiled woman asked.
"Who knows! Let's hide for a bit," Huck shouted.
Qin Mo pressed his palm against the rock wall near the cave entrance, and just before the monsters pounced, the violent shock destroyed the cave entrance structure.
With a loud "boom," the tunnel entrance was buried under rubble, temporarily blocking the pursuers and cutting off Qin Mo and his group's retreat.
Only the heavy breathing of a few people remained inside the tunnel.
The next moment, Hack suddenly pointed the gun at the hooded man's head.
"What are you doing?!" The hooded man panicked. He had witnessed the power of the Leylin sniper rifle; at such close range, it was enough to smash his head into a watermelon.
Qin Mo and Hack exchanged a glance, then Qin Mo slowly stepped forward and asked with a cold smile, "At this point, there's nothing left to hide, is there?"
The hooded man led them to District 9 without warning of any potential dangers, clearly indicating his ulterior motives.
"What exactly do you know about District 9?"
The hooded man lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then sighed before speaking:
"Believe me, I don't know more than you do. This is a mandatory mission from above, requiring us to investigate the anomalies in the Ninth District at all costs. The mission briefing says that there are undead here that were not created by the corruption of Chaos..."
"You're paying a fortune just for those monsters outside?" Hack didn't believe it at all.
"Can't you see? Those monsters are being controlled by something!"
The hooded man said angrily, "This is our second time entering District Nine! The first time, we only managed to break through to the outer perimeter, and we lost 70% of our men. That's why we're offering you a hefty reward to help us explore!"
Qin Mo paused, immediately recalling the monsters' fearless actions earlier, which seemed to be controlled by some mysterious will.
If that's really the case, then the secret behind it is incredibly interesting.
These uncorrupted, fearless, and controllable zombies are even more powerful than armed gang members.
For certain forces, these undead should have enormous strategic value.
In the general perception of the Empire, studying such monsters was clearly a heretical act that desecrated the purity of humanity.
"Who are you referring to when you say 'above'?" Qin Mo asked again, very alert.
This kind of information is definitely not something a low-level gang could discover; there must be higher-level forces involved.
Ever since his encounter with the court, he has developed an unconscious wariness of these important figures.
"I don't know," the hooded man said dejectedly. "I'm just a nobody. If I knew this, why would I be sent here to die?"
"Ancient Seekers, rumored to maintain close ties with a noble family in Upper Nest Spire, this mission should come from those Upper Nest nobles."
Just then, the masked woman suddenly spoke up: "As far as I know, District 9 did not fall because of any mutant invasion. It was abandoned by the big shots in Upper Nest because of frequent mining accidents."
Looking at the masked woman, Qin Mo keenly sensed that the key to this mission might lie here.
An unexpected mining accident?
Major hidden secret?
What is the truth behind the fall of District 9?
What could possibly make nobles willingly abandon a treasure trove that might hold precious artifacts from an ancient era...?
"Our escape route is blocked; we'd better keep going," the hooded man said tentatively.
But the three men from the end of Qin ignored him.
After a moment of silence, the masked woman spoke first: "I will continue to explore."
As she spoke, she slightly pulled open the black robe that covered her entire body, revealing a metallic torso that shimmered with silver light inside.
Qin Mo noticed that the woman had three pairs of mechanical limbs hidden behind her, which were now deftly removing her black robe.
This is a completely redesigned mechanical body, with countless intricate gears and kinetic energy channels working together to fully explain the mystery of mechanical ascension.
A mechanical priest?!
Qin Mo had guessed the woman's identity, but he never expected her to be a mechanical priest with such a high degree of modification.
"I am Frinina Elos, a technical expert walking the path of geneticists. Om Messiah told me that a great secret is hidden here, and I cannot miss this opportunity to explore the mysteries of life."
The veiled woman removed her veil, revealing an extremely alluring and beautiful face, which contrasted sharply with the cold, mechanical structure of her body.
"Therefore, I invite you to continue your exploration. If we survive, I will give you a chance for gene enhancement without any side effects."
