Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 423 Secret Camp
……

Sun Hang kept the car at a steady speed of 70 miles per hour and drove straight ahead along the main road. After driving for about 20 kilometers, he turned right into a small road.

At the entrance of the path, there are a bunch of warning signs such as "No Entry", "Danger, Monsters Inside!", and "Trespassers at their own risk". There are also several photos under the warning signs. The photos contain terrifying monsters and bloody corpses. Just a glance at them is enough to make the hair on your back stand on end.

However, the three people in the car seemed completely used to this. Except for Fukada Miki who took out her mobile phone to take two photos, Sun Hang and Zhong Ling did not even look at the warning signs.

"I am dying of laughter. Aren't these photos public resources on the Tianshu Tower's internal forum? I didn't expect that they would post them here to scare people." Fukada Miki suddenly laughed. "In my opinion, it would be more intimidating to just hang a mutilated corpse under the warning sign."

"This is a civilized society. You are talking about the behavior of barbarians." Sun Hang complained, "Although I have to admit that you are right."

"By the way, are there really any strange things here?" Fukada Miki put down her phone and asked.

"Have."

"Where is it? Where is it?"

"Drive along this road for eleven kilometers and you will reach the edge of the restricted area, which is full of strange creatures," said Sun Hang.

"Tsk, I thought a strange creature would jump out from the roadside and pounce on our car." Fukada Miki curled her lips, "Boring."

"If you feel bored, I can always send you back."

"No, I didn't say that... I, I take back what I just said." Fukada Miki immediately apologized with a smile, "When I thought that Chimera No. 17 was just 11 kilometers away from me, my heart was filled with excitement and I couldn't control myself..."

"More than eleven kilometers." Zhong Ling corrected calmly, "Eleven kilometers only reaches the edge of the restricted area, and Chimera No. 17 is in the center of the restricted area."

Fukada Miki was stunned for a moment: "Uh... then how far do we have to drive to reach the foot of Chimera No. 17?"

"We won't go deep into the restricted area this time." Sun Hang said, "How can we run right under someone's feet in the first round of reconnaissance?"

"That's right..." Fukada Miki nodded, "Is it possible that we will encounter other strange creatures this time? Isn't it said that in addition to Chimera 17, there are many other strange creatures controlled by it in the restricted area?"

"Try to avoid fighting." Sun Hang shook his head. "I don't want your identity and abilities to be exposed."

"Can this be exposed?!" Fukada Miki made an exaggerated expression and pointed at herself in the rearview mirror. "My mother can't even recognize me in my current state. How can those weird creatures recognize me as Fukada Miki?"

"That's hard to say." Sun Hang smacked his lips. "What if, I mean what if, a certain weird creature has the ability to read memories? It doesn't even need to know who you are, as long as you know what abilities you have."

"Hiss... reading memories?" Fukada Miki couldn't help but gasp, "Such a perverted ability? Does such a weird thing really exist?"

"Chimera 17 is it, but in order for it to read your memory, it has to kill and devour you first."

“Huh… that’s not bad.” Fukada Miki patted her chest which had been “strengthened” by more than one level. “I thought there would be some weird creature that could read people’s thoughts and memories just by looking at them.”

"Maybe... there is." Sun Hang looked at her deeply and said in a deliberately low voice.

"I always feel like you're trying to scare me."

"Is it?"

As we were talking, the paved road had come to an end and the car was on a bumpy dirt road, which suddenly became bumpy.

The previous two times Sun Hang entered the restricted area, he took a helicopter and had never experienced this bumpy dirt road. If he had known that this road would be so bumpy, he would have changed to an off-road vehicle with a higher chassis and better shock absorbers.

From time to time, there were a few sounds of collisions between the car and the rocks protruding from the road, and the whole car was shaking as if it was about to fall apart - apart from a license plate from the Tianfu City Weird Things Research Institute, the car itself was just a cheap car worth fifty or sixty thousand yuan. For this kind of car, people only required it to be able to drive, and there was no question of its performance.

It was not known whether she could not bear the bumping or was afraid of biting off her tongue, but the noisy Fukada Miki was now completely silent. She fastened her seat belt, which had not been fastened, and held tightly onto the pull ring above the window with both hands. She leaned her body to one side against the back of the chair, trying to reduce the impact of the bumps - but even so, every time she encountered a slightly bigger bump, her butt would leave the seat and then fall heavily back down.

For the first time, Miki Fukada felt that having an impressive figure was not always a good thing.

Although the fuller fat on the legs and buttocks can act as buffer pads to absorb the impact, the two lumps of fat on the upper body are shaking wildly with the bumps... mass and inertia are proportional, and with the shaking of the "heavy object", Miki Fukada can clearly feel that her body is being carried by these two lumps of fat, and at the root position, there are waves of pain due to tearing.

She suddenly understood the troubles of those girls with big breasts - it turns out that they are not in Versailles!

"I wonder if the girl in the back seat is feeling uncomfortable right now?" Fukada Miki looked up at the rearview mirror, but when she saw Zhong Ling's current state, she suddenly felt the differences between people.

The No. 1 Ghost Skeleton stretched out an arm and lifted Zhong Ling up, making her body slightly suspended in the air. The bumps and shakes transmitted from the car seat were completely absorbed by the No. 1 Ghost Skeleton's body.

Zhong Ling's current appearance is no different from when he was on the paved road just now.

"This corpse... is it so useful?" Fukada Miki couldn't help but squeeze out a word from between her teeth.

Sun Hang glanced at her. He originally wanted to say, "This is not a ghost skeleton, this is her mother"... But considering that this sentence was somewhat of a hellish joke, Sun Hang did not say it in the end.

Although Zhong Ling probably wouldn't care about this hellish joke.

"We're here." Sun Hang stepped on the brakes, and the car did a 90-degree drift on the spot and stopped steadily.

"That's it?" Fukada Miki looked out the window. In front of her was a small hill several hundred meters high. The surrounding areas that could be illuminated by the car lights were all wasteland. There was not even a sign. She couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.

She pulled down the goggles on her head that covered her eye color and silently activated her ability.

In the darkness, a large number of overlapping red marks suddenly appeared!
"Be careful! There are things hiding nearby! There are a lot of them!" Fukada Miki warned immediately. "Hey? Good eyesight?" Sun Hang didn't seem surprised. He opened the car door, got out of the car, and flashed his hunter bracelet in a certain direction.

With two "bang" sounds, two high-power searchlights were lit up, and a carefully camouflaged camp appeared less than fifty meters away from the car.

This camp is located in a shallow pit one meter deep and covering several hundred square meters. The top of the pit is covered with a layer of khaki camouflage canvas, on which an additional layer of special coating is added to prevent radar scanning. Even if the eternal night disappears, this camouflaged camp will be difficult to be discovered unless you get close.

Two field operators climbed out of the pit and walked quickly towards Sun Hang.

"Tianfu City registered hunter, Sun Hang, number 0420." Sun Hang threw his hunter license to one of them, "I'm here to carry out a secret mission."

"No need, I know you." The field operator who received the license returned it to Sun Hang without even looking at it, "You saved my life before."

"Ah? I saved your life?" Sun Hang scratched his head, "Why don't I remember? When?"

"Southern Suburbs, Ring Expressway, Outpost 307." The operator said excitedly, "A hunter was out of control and it was you who arrived in time to resolve the crisis! You would not have noticed a small character like me, but I remember your appearance very clearly! We all thought we would have to confess that day, and no one expected that your rescue would come so timely!"

At this moment, Zhong Ling also got out of the car. The operator got even more excited when he saw her: "I was a member of the Puppet Master Team at that time. She must remember me!"

Zhong Ling nodded to Sun Hang, indicating that there was indeed such a person in the team at that time.

"Can...can you sign an autograph for me?" the field operator suddenly said a little embarrassedly.

"Autograph? Where should I sign?" Sun Hang didn't expect that this guy was actually his fan.

I didn’t expect that I would have fans.

"Just sign at..." The operator looked at his equipment and was suddenly stunned.

Signing on clothes will be washed off. As for other equipment on the body, they are all distributed uniformly and must be handed in after the mission is completed... He thought for a long time. Apart from clothes, pants and boots, he did not bring any personal items that could be used for signing on this mission.

"Forget it, forget about the autograph. I'll give this to you as a souvenir." Sun Hang pulled out his pistol and handed it to the other party.

The fan was ecstatic, but he calmed down the next second: "No, no, I can't take your weapon... You are here to carry out a secret mission, how can you give me a weapon?"

"What you said makes sense..." Sun Hang nodded. Although his abilities did not rely on weapons like guns, there was no need to waste the "blue bar" to activate abilities if the problem could be solved with a gun... Sometimes, guns were quite useful.

"How about this." Sun Hang pulled out the pistol from the operator's waist, "Give me your gun. Just think of it as my temporary requisition. When you report the loss of equipment, fill in this reason."

"Is this...is this okay?"

"Why not?" Sun Hang stuffed his two spare magazines into his hands, "Where are your spare magazines? Give them to me, too."

"Okay... okay!" In front of his companions' helpless and amused looks, the operator immediately took out several spare magazines from his body and handed them to Sun Hang carefully.

"It seems that Sun Hang is in a good mood." Fukada Miki gently nudged Zhong Ling next to her with her elbow, "After all, he got to meet his fans."

However, Zhong Ling seemed not to have heard her words. Not only did he not answer, he didn't even turn around to look at her.

This made Fukada Miki a little unsure about how to continue the topic.

"Alright, you have to know your limits when it comes to idol-chasing!" The operator's companion patted him on the shoulder. "Mr. Sun Hang, what is your mission this time? Is there anything you need our cooperation with?"

"Secret mission." Sun Hang put his index finger in front of his lips and emphasized it again, "Secret."

"Oh, sorry... I didn't expect it to be such a high-level classified mission." The operator apologized quickly, "So what do you need us to do?"

"What's the current situation of Chimera No. 17?" Sun Hang asked.

After accidents occurred in the two bunkers of the forward observation post, this secret camp located on the edge of the restricted area became one of the observation points closest to Chimera 17.

"It's still the same... According to the information sent back by the robots from the two bunkers, Chimera XVII has not undergone any obvious changes since its last mutation, a total of seven hours and forty-five minutes." The two operators took Sun Hang into the camp and into a tent full of display screens.

"These display screens are directly connected to the observation equipment in Bunker 1 and Bunker 2. Although the signal will be delayed for a few seconds, it can barely be considered a real-time picture." said the field operator.

In the picture, a giant cocoon emitting a faint fluorescent light stood quietly in the rain. The surface of the cocoon was covered with many strange small bumps - this was the effect seen when the picture was not enlarged, but Sun Hang knew that these small bumps that looked like rashes were actually huge human faces squeezed together.

He still remembered the feeling of looking into the eyes of these faces through Liu Li's computer screen when he was in the helicopter... He was sure that these faces could definitely detect the cameras that were observing them, and then in turn spy on the people sitting in front of the screen through the cameras.

But after being glared back at by Sun Hang, these faces closed their eyes and never opened them again.

"You should have enlarged these images and seen them, right?" Sun Hang asked.

The two special agents showed a trace of fear on their faces and nodded: "I have seen... many faces. It makes people feel scared."

"Are there any of these faces with their eyes open?" Sun Hang asked again.

“No.” They both shook their heads at the same time, “They all had their eyes closed.”
