Chapter 343: Going Back (Part II)
The train came to a steady stop on the edge of the platform, and there was no crowding outside. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info There weren't many people sitting in this passenger train.
The building was bathed in a dark red twilight sun, and a large amount of pale steam came out from under the train, and its own weight allowed it to float a thin layer against the ground, wetting the ground.
Walking out of the train was an unimaginably stuffy, humid and stuffy heat. The sun's rays from the setting mountains still have a scorching heat in them. Following the few pedestrians in front of them, and the signs written in three different scripts, the four of them came to the outside of the train station, and across the street was a row of station-like buildings connected together, half of the wide road occupied by various vehicles waiting for customers.
There are no decent limousines left. The black limousines that have become the mainstream on the roads of Manoma are barely visible here, replaced by a large number of modified vehicles, including combat vehicles and armored vehicles, but most of them are cut versions. Except for the body build, the welded steel plates on it, and a bunch of tires that Kasiya didn't recognize the manufacturing company and model performance, the other parts should be something that can be saved. Perhaps the vehicles themselves were frames picked up from the dump and then assembled with various cheap parts.
Immediately someone got out of the car and walked up to Lakasia for their business. A thin person, wearing a short-sleeved shirt in a hot weather, is already quite worn out. The skin inside the crop was dark and rough like a lawn that had just been pushed by a lawn mower.
"Judging by your appearance, it's likely that you're from the Saint Dorag Empire. The driver who came over said that he could just call him Mofki, "I have been to the St. Dorag Empire before, and I know a little of the language there, so I thought I would come to ask you." โ
Movki activated the modified vehicle in which Kasia was sitting, and it was evident from the interior decoration that the prototype of the car was undoubtedly armored. The chassis is thick, and most of it is carpeted, but where it is exposed, it is still possible to see the navy blue copper alloy baseplate, which is standard for armored vehicles. There are also traces of shrapnel on it. You can imagine the scene after the steel shell bomb was thrown inside, and the dense shrapnel penetrated the person in the iron shell.
Seeing Kasia's gaze looking inside the car, Mofki explained: "At that time, I was lucky, several groups of people fought at night, and it was very lively. After the ignition stopped, I drove the trailer to pick up the leak, and the car came now. It's not that you can't afford a regular limousine, but it's that the cost of modification in the future is too expensive. The kind of body iron sheet small-caliber lead bullet can penetrate, and there is no safety. It is troublesome and troublesome to dismantle and replace the steel plate. Or this armored car, or the body of the combat vehicle is trouble-free. If you're a little more daring, you might even be able to pick up composite armor plates to use. This way you can go to those better places to pull customers. โ
"Of courseใใใ "of course," said Mofki, "is not to say that the city is in a state of chaos. It's much better now, and the big forces entrenched here, it seems that there is a mining company in your country, and they have joined forces to force other small and medium-sized forces to sign various agreements, and the city is a little more peaceful. If you look at the buildings outside, they're not all intact. โ
Kasia and the others looked out the window. The gray area is a vast plain, and there is not a single shadow of a raised mountain range at the end of the sky. It's still on the edge of the city, there are no decent high-rise buildings here, and when the number of floors reaches six or seven floors, all the ones that have been negotiated have been cut off. The color is mostly yellow and gray, which has something to do with the abundant sunlight here. As Mofki said, intact architecture. With Kasia's eyesight, he didn't find any bullet holes or explosions on the ground or walls. It's not the same here as Brino.
"Yes, it's still safe in the city, but it's only been the last few years. In the past, the buildings here were built today and demolished the next day, and there were columns of black smoke rising from the explosions everywhere. It was a common thing for heavily armed armored vehicles and combat vehicles to run through the streets. It's also a fight in the laneway, and it's chaotic anywayใใใ"
Until they reached their destination in Kasia, Mofki's mouth never stopped. The fare was still a little more than double, and Kasia was already prepared.
The rooms were booked in three and were connected together. The sunlight is very weak, and it is about to completely fall below the horizon. The windows are facing the center of the city, where there are tall buildings, and huge slanted black shadows fall on the surrounding clusters of flat buildings, a scene of twilight decay. This area is the best breeding ground for mold.
Lena and Syrah in a room. Sira was placed on the bed, and her body seemed to be fine, but the actual situation still required a lot of time to cultivate. She now picks up the books and magazines on the side of her bed that describe the hotel's services. While Lina was still checking the security of her room, Kasia came and knocked on the door.
"I'll go over for a moment. Lina dropped a word and went out.
When she got to Kasia's room, Dyar was already sitting at the table, drinking warm water from the kettle with her cup.
On the table were all the items they had for their trip. A few guns and tactical knives that are not well stocked can be skipped over. When it comes to the gray area, all these things are not missing. On the side of the street, there are also deep alleys with weapons shops, as long as the price is enough, all kinds of weapons and ammunition are available.
What matters is those things that are wrapped in cotton. Two intact red mercury sticks, and about twenty fragments. The rest was a metal cylinder about the size of a suppression tube, with a surface like a mirror, and the faces of the three of them around him were ingested into it.
The plan was made a long time ago, and now it's just a matter of making sure again.
Solid red mercury cannot be sold off, not even in fragments. They can't fully estimate its value, but there is probably a lower limit in their minds. Something of value is sure to attract a large number of people, and it's still a gray area, and it's not surprising that the merchants do anything.
The preparation is to sell one or two pieces first, and then find a mechanic, customize Sira's mechanical prosthesis, and have a good mobility, and then sell a few pieces from the channel of the dark world again. The money was divided equally, as was Red Mercury, even if Lina didn't accept it, but Kasia insisted on it. The last two remaining metal cylinders, of unknown use, were held by Kasia.
It will take about a week, but if it goes well, four or five days will be enough. It would only take a week at most to return to Manoma, and at that time there would be absolutely nothing left on the mission, and then it could be used to think about Delya's affairs. Kasia calculated in her mind.
In the evening, there is a bright orange light outside, and the sound is more lively than during the day. In such an area, night is the true sense of the day.
