Chapter 55: Exploration

There were also many people who were about to leave the port area, suddenly alarmed by the sound of explosions behind them, and looked in the direction where the steam smoke column was gushing up, and they did not hesitate for half a minute like Kara, under the sound wave sweeping at a speed of more than three hundred meters per second, the dull explosion sound could be faintly heard in all the surrounding areas with a radius of about seven kilometers.

Although the sound could not be heard further away, the milky white pillars of steam were like pure white clouds, where the sun was rising. Even if there is no dazzling sunlight to indicate its presence, if you tilt your head slightly, you will be completely attracted to it.

A group of people has their own minds, although curiosity is a big part of it.

The usually deserted remote area of the port suddenly became lively, and steam locomotives representing different forces were rushing there. The various frequencies of the radio were also flying through the air, and things didn't have to be fermented, and in just a few minutes after the explosion, everyone knew what was going on in the harbor.

Kara is about six kilometers away, and the road used to be not straight. When we arrived at the top of a building two or three hundred meters away from the place where the incident occurred, just a few minutes had passed, but there were already thirty or forty people standing on the edge of a large pit with a diameter of several tens of meters wide in front of us. Limousines of different colors were casually parked on the road on both sides, and various people stood in a group, intending to go down to check the situation.

But the steam that permeated there had not completely dissipated, it was still faintly shrouded in white mist, and the air also contained moist moisture, and the steam plume was now only a faint shadow standing in the sky, and more and more people rushed over.

The crater was large, and the epicenter of the explosion was under a solid cement stone pavement. Now the road surface has been completely lifted, and the black soil has been carried up dozens of meters into the air by the impact, like a spring splashing in the surrounding 100 meters, and the solid reinforced concrete structure of the road surface has been completely destroyed. The gray-white road surface around it also cracked densely in the vibration, and at the edge of the crater, the reinforcement steel bars were also exposed, which was hideous and showed the power of the explosion.

On one side was a deserted site of discontinued construction, and on the other side was a rudimentary gray warehouse, its iron doors had been blown away, and the top of the warehouse was covered with black mud. A group of heavily armed men rushed out of it, the men of the arms smuggler Brewer.

Only then did Kara remember the mark on the map in her mind, and this was his territory.

What the hell is going on? That's the question of all the people who rushed over.

Kara kept the leather case by her side, she didn't assemble her own sniper rifle, she just took out the optical anchor scope to expand her vision. No matter how good your eyesight is, you can only see it vaguely from a distance of two or three hundred meters.

In the scope, the crater resembles a broken bowl, the bottom of which is emptied, and it is supposed to be the center of the explosion. At the edge was a pile of tattered black steam machines, most of which were buried in black mud, and inside the black mud, from a distance of a few meters, you could see mutilated corpses, their bodies were covered with mud, and the bullet holes on their bodies were faintly visible. Apparently, they were all killed with guns before they exploded.

And the cause of the explosion is also very clear, there is not a trace of gunpowder smoke around, only a little rotten smell of silt, it is the steam storage tank that plays the role of gunpowder.

But what caused the extremely safe steam canister to explode?

The craftsmen are not operating properly, but no matter how simple the weapons workshop is, there should be a basic alarm device. It's a pity that they didn't know that these facilities were destroyed by the flames very early.

What other reason could there be than irregular operation? They counted the pitiful knowledge of all kinds of steam machinery in their heads, and it was obviously impossible for the cooling liquid to enter the steam system, but what could be a reasonable explanation for this possibility?

The bullet broke the steam canister, and the ordinary bullet hit it definitely painlessly, and at most scratched a few white marks. The Platinum Bullet can make a slight dent in it, but the sheer power of the Platinum Bullet is only so much in front of it, and they can't think of any other way to destroy a complete high-end metal canister than to transport it to a high-end steam factory and cut it with professional tools.

And even if it is vandalism, the first person to be injured is definitely the saboteur, and they really can't think of what the cause of the explosion would be.

The white fog completely dissipated in the last few tens of seconds, and they saw the broken parts, which were the conveyor tracks, the central shaft, the gears, and the iron cover of the machine base. Turned black by the flames, they were all scrap metal, now huddled at the edges.

The people who came out of the warehouse saw such a scene in front of them, and their faces were a little unpleasant. This is their own territory, but now under their noses, their weapons workshop has been blown up to the sky, not to mention the death of the people inside, and all the manufacturing machines they have bought have become scrap metal. And the most important thing is that they don't know about it from the beginning to the end. If it weren't for the fact that the explosion was right in front of their warehouse, and their own iron doors were blown up, they might still be sleeping and drinking in the warehouse.

There was no sign of life in the crater of the explosion, at least in their eyes, it was full of mutilated human bodies, and intact corpses were rare. And there may not be any ordinary person who can survive such a powerful explosion.

A group of people stood around the big pit, looking at the black dirt that had been turned over in front of them, and the people who were also standing around looked at each other, and everyone saw the confusion and helplessness on their faces.

What's really going on here?

They looked at Brewer's men in the direction of the warehouse, their faces were a little red, and the gaze coming from all over the place was hot, it was a look of seeking explanation. But they are also the people who don't know the truth.

Someone began to walk down the pit cautiously step by step, the surrounding soil was a little wet and soft, and the footprints were deep and shallow, one foot after another. The person above watched silently, cold sweat oozed from behind the forehead of the person who went down, the soft corpse could be stepped on from time to time in the dirt under his feet, and the surrounding area was surprisingly silent, he could clearly hear his own breathing and heartbeat, they had lost their usual regularity. The air below was even more humid, and in a moment, his eyebrows were covered with water, and his face became wet.

The person who went down felt that he was a little too nervous, and he also felt that he was a little inconsiderate. But the people above are all looking at themselves, and now they are a little embarrassed to go up. He was still holding a gun at his waist, who would dare to come out, even if it was a ghost, he was confident that he could shoot the other party's head with a few shots.

I can't go up, my face is all on it, he thought.

The dirt in front of him suddenly moved, and his heart tightened, and he felt his breath shorten. He hurriedly pulled out his gun, his hands shaking a little.

Then a hand dressed in clothes of unknown color suddenly stretched out, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
