Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 151 The sound of guns outside
"No, old dog, Ke Lan's method may work..." Layton's voice came from the side, and the hound turned his head to look, only to see the big reformer standing in front of a large machine more than two meters high , holding a piece of covering cloth that had just been torn from it in his hand.

"We're lucky... This is a heavy-duty turbine water pump, or the one equipped with a crystallization engine... Maybe this thing is too heavy, so they didn't move it away..."

"Water pump?" The Hound narrowed his eyes, "You mean..."

"That's right, I can transform this thing into a drilling machine, and it won't take much time, at most half an hour." Layton said a little excitedly.

"If there is a drilling rig, then the 20 meters of soil and rock is not a big deal, but... you must have a drill for the drilling rig, right? Where can I find the drill in this place?" Ivan asked with some doubts.

"We have something more useful than a drill!" Layton looked at the heat-powered epee in the hound's hand, "After this thing is connected to energy, it can cut iron like mud. It's nothing to worry about stones. If you use this If something is used as a drill bit, the efficiency will not be lower than that of diamond!"

"Then hurry up!" Without saying a word, the hound threw the thermal epee in his hand towards Layton.

"It's a pity that there is only one. If there are four... No, if there are three, the digging efficiency can be increased several times." Layton caught the epee and said with some regret.

"Don't care how many times he can escape! Damn it, if I can get out from here, I must let that Prussian survive and die!" The hound threw an empty magazine in his hand vigorously. He fell to the ground and stomped several times.

Layton glanced at the magazine that was trampled by the armor, and said a little unhappy: "What is the old dog doing with the magazine, that guy's face doesn't grow on the magazine... But if that bastard really falls on me In his hands, I guarantee he will absolutely regret why his mother gave birth to him."

"We were indeed betrayed, but...do you find it strange?" Ke Lan squatted on the ground and said thoughtfully.

"Strange? What's strange?"

"Manstein has already reached an agreement with us. Logically speaking, he should not choose to tear up the agreement at this time and retaliate against us. This is unreasonable."

"What's unreasonable, I think this dog just took this opportunity and wants to trap us to death in this ghost place!" the hound said angrily.

"But, he didn't have the motivation to do this..." Ke Lan shook his head slowly, "Although I don't have much contact with Manstein, I can basically be sure that he is not the kind of person who is motivated...he This man is greedy by nature, but he acts very rationally and is good at forbearance... In his eyes, he always puts his own interests first... And if he decides to take revenge on us here, it is tantamount to choosing To perish with us, even if we can't get out alive, the senior management of the Soma Financial Group will never let him go—if I were sitting in his position, I would never do such a thing."

"And, why did he want to retaliate against us? Just because we exposed his embezzlement of public funds to buy shield generators?" Ke Lan continued, "But don't forget, these shield generators are now on us, If he kills us in the mine, he won't be able to get back these shield generators... This kind of harm to others is not good for oneself... No, it is a thing that hurts others and self, and only short-sighted street gangsters can do it But do you think that a street gangster can climb to such a high position as a consortium base manager?"

"Then why was the communication cut off? Why did the siege tanks outside open fire? We... why are we trapped here?!" The hound asked in disbelief.

"I don't know, but reason tells me that Manstein couldn't have done this," Ke Lan said.

"At this time, you still believe in that Prussian?" As a descendant of Poles, the hound obviously didn't like Manstein at all.

"It's not a question of whether you believe it or not..." Ke Lan's voice stopped abruptly in the middle of speaking, just when the hound was about to speak, Ke Lan suddenly raised his hand to signal him not to speak.

Then, Ke Lan even stopped Layton, who was modifying the water pump, and lay down on his stomach, putting his ears on the ground.

Seeing Ke Lan's weird behavior, the hound, Zhuo Ligetu and Ivan all reacted in a short while, and then all lay down on the ground in a similar manner. Only Layton held a chainsaw and a welding torch in his hand. Can't come down, can only watch them helplessly.

"It seems to be an explosion..." the hound said softly.

"There are gunshots and gunfire... It seems... there is a firefight outside..." Ke Lan said, he could even feel the tremor passing along the ground.

"A firefight? People outside? That Prussian's men? Who are they fighting with?" A look of joy suddenly flashed across the hound's face, "Could it be Liao Zilang? I knew that kid was going to die!"

"No, it's not Liao Zilang." Ke Lan got up from the ground and shook his head, "If it was Liao Zilang, there wouldn't be such a big commotion."

"Who else could it be? Even if the Soma Consortium knew that we were cheated and sent someone to find that Manstein to settle the score, they didn't arrive so soon, did they?" said the hound.

"Could it be that the ultra-purity crystals have leaked, and other consortiums are attacking the base of the Soma consortium?" Ivan said his guess.

"Probably not." Ke Lan still shook his head, "Although the value of ultra-purity crystals is astonishing, according to the rules of the Ark, wars between consortiums are strictly prohibited... Something as big as attacking a base is absolutely impossible to hide Yes, once it is confirmed, no matter how strong the consortium is, it will not be able to defeat the siege of the Ark official and all other consortia that have signed the agreement. No one will do this kind of thing that is equivalent to tearing apart all mankind A cheeky fool."

Ke Lan paused, and continued: "I would rather believe that Manstein ordered us to be buried in the mine because of his brain, and I don't believe that any consortium would dare to openly attack the mining bases of other consortia."

"Then what's going on outside? Indigenous creatures? What can there be on this Leviathan..."

The hound was startled when he said that, he subconsciously looked at the corpse of the "sea anemone head" on the ground, and murmured: "Could it be... this thing ran out?"

"..."

Ke Lan was silent for several seconds before he said with some difficulty: "This...it's really possible, otherwise, why did those monsters who had driven us into a corner just now suddenly leave...I'm afraid it was to gather troops and attack the ground The human base on the ..."

The tunnels of the mine are actually the blood vessels in Leviathan's body. This is a well-known fact-since they are blood vessels, they must be connected to each other... In other words, the exit of the No. [-] mine shaft is not just blocked in front of you. Live in this one!
