The First Evolution - Chapter 530: Weird Corpse
10 minutes later,
Fang Linyan put on the work uniform and sat on the forklift. Jamil was driving the forklift beside him. Goat and Vulture also put on the uniforms and followed behind carrying things.
There were countless forklifts driving back and forth in the area, so they didn’t attract anyone’s attention.
Then Jamil took the three of them to Warehouse No. 7. There was no one here at this hour.
After entering Warehouse No. 7, Jamil was obviously very nervous. There was sweat on his neck and forehead, and his heavy breathing was clearly audible. Fang Linyan couldn’t stand it anymore, so he kicked him and whispered,
“Calm down, idiot.”
At the same time, he handed him a bottle of water.
After being kicked by Fang Linyan, Jamil gulped some water and finally regained his composure, then he rubbed his face and drove toward the center of the warehouse.
There were a large number of containers stacked here. The forklift stopped outside an extra large container.
Jamil took 2 deep breaths, then he jumped down, came to the exit of the container, and shouted,
“Oi, Margot! Open the door. I have something to ask you.”
Jamil shouted several times, but no one responded. However, Fang Linyan suddenly noticed that the gap at the opening of the container seemed a bit large, so he walked up and lifted it up.
As a result, the opening rolled up like a rolling shutter door.
The door wasn’t shut at all…
At this time, Goat and Vulture, who were carrying things behind, also caught up. Goat said to Fang Linyan,
“Boss, something’s not right here. When we came here, several people already got knocked unconscious.”
Fang Linyan wondered,
“Ah? Is there such a thing? No wonder there was no one when we came in. I even thought this was a trap. After all, a key contraband warehouse must be heavily guarded.”
After thinking for a while, he followed Goat and Vulture to the side to check. There were 2 people lying in the corner.
Their eyes were closed, their faces were relatively rosy, and their breathing was normal. However, they could not be woken no matter how. Their expressions were a little distorted as if they had a nightmare. Occasionally, their bodies would twitch.
Not only that, one of them would occasionally grind his teeth loudly as if his teeth would be worn away at any time.
Of course, it was precisely because of the sound of grinding teeth that Goat noticed something unusual and found people in the pile of goods over there.
Fatty Jamil walked over to take a look, and he said in astonishment,
“Why is Margot here? He should be on duty now. Damn it, if the boss knows that he sneaks away to sleep in the secret warehouse shift, he will definitely kick his ass hard.”
Fang Linyan squinted his eyes and examined the two of them carefully, and he found that they were not drunk. However, judging from the condition of their heads, they did not seem to be knocked unconscious. This was really puzzling.
However, time was running out now and there was no time to investigate so much, so they took Jamil back to the giant container.
Now that the guards had run away and the door of the container was open, Jamil walked in and entered the five-digit password on the wall. A rumble sounded.
It turned out that the floor behind the giant container slowly slid open, revealing a passage extending downward.
This passage was flat and smooth with more than 6 meters wide, allowing 2 forklifts to move side by side. Below the passage was the secret warehouse where the smuggled goods or contraband obtained by the local boss were placed.
After opening the door, Jamil asked for the money from them and left.
Jamil was so cooperative, so Fang Linyan didn’t hesitate to give the money. After all, this place was indeed very hidden. Jamil would never be able to find such a coincidence if he made it up on the fly.
Then they walked along the passage toward the secret warehouse below.
After entering the secret warehouse, Fang Linyan felt that the air inside was a bit stuffy. If he smelled it carefully, there was an indescribable fishy smell as if it was a mixture of dead fish and dead mice, and the lighting was not very good.
Probably because the secret warehouse was built privately by the boss. In order to keep the secret, the construction team he hired may not be professional. The ventilation effect was not good.
Under the dim lights, it could be seen that the secret warehouse covered an area about half the size of a football field. There were quite a lot of goods inside. It was like a supermarket with rows of goods. It was at least the height of a person, so it blocked the view.
Suddenly, Vulture waved his hand, and a flying knife pierced into a black figure at the corner.
Then the black figure slowly fell down. It looked like he had been killed by a single blow.
There was a reason why Vulture was so ruthless. This secret warehouse was the boss’ most important area. He would place a large number of guards here, so Vulture couldn’t be merciful.
Once he let 1 go, a group might swarm them later.
However, Vulture frowned. He somehow felt that the black figure’s posture of falling to the ground was a bit weird, so he quickly stepped forward to check. He said in shock,
“Boss, take a look at this.”
Fang Linyan knew that Vulture must have discovered something important, so he quickly stepped forward and said,
“What’s wrong?”
After he walked over, he was stunned too. It turned out that Vulture’s flying knife only stabbed the opponent’s shoulder.
Under normal circumstances, this person’s reaction to being attacked was definitely not to stiffen and fell, but to cover his shoulders and scream to signal or fight back.
After Fang Linyan walked over, he took a deep breath.
Because there was a pool of blood beside this person. The source of the blood was a bloody wound on his chest.
The teacup-sized wound penetrated from the front chest to the back. Such extreme injury was overkill for humans. Even if the middle of the chest was hit, it would still be a fatal blow.
Looking at the dripping blood, he could roughly restore the scene at that time.
Under the desire to survive, a man ran over in a stagger while clutching his chest with horrific injuries. After getting here, his weak body could no longer support him from doing any strenuous exercise.
Therefore, he could only sit against the wall in despair and tried to press the wound to stop the bleeding, but soon he could no longer feel the pain of the wound. He felt cold, difficulty breathing, and weak consciousness… He then passed out and died.
Until Vulture’s flying knife pierced his shoulder, destroying the fragile balance of this corpse… so it fell down.
Fang Linyan took a deep breath and activated [Athena’s Blessing] instantly, then he ate recovery food while saying to Goat and Vulture,
“Under normal circumstances, the boss of this damn place should have placed a lot of guards inside, but not only did we get in without obstruction, we haven’t even encountered any guards yet.”
“Be careful and stay close to me. Something is wrong with this place. I’m afraid there is no one alive inside.”
Vulture immediately came over, but Goat said,
“Wait, you guys cover me.”
He walked forward quickly and turned the corpse over. He could immediately see that there was a strange scorch mark the size of a fist on the leg of the corpse. Yellow-green smoke was still rising at this time.
The scorch mark was caused by a very viscous corrosive liquid. The clothes were thick and wear-resistant, but the clothes were easily corroded. Even the skin was scorched.
Goat stood up and said solemnly,
“In addition to powerful weapons that can directly penetrate the human body, the enemy also has terrifying acid weapons, which seem to be very corrosive. Such attacks often have the effect of greatly reducing defense.”
Fang Linyan said,
“Copy that. I’ll let [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] and Guseer to explore the way ahead.”
After walking about 10 meters forward, Vulture suddenly said,
“I received a mission prompt, saying that the important plot character of our mission is 50 meters to the right.”
