Soon, Grimm had dissected all the giant-mouthed eyeless beasts into pieces of meat and hung them in the trading center.
In less than ten minutes, all the pieces of meat on the shelves had been sold out.
Grimm shook his head. The players were really in a dire situation now. Even this kind of poisonous meat was in short supply.
It was unbelievable that this kind of junk food could be traded for so many dense alloys!
After dealing with the corpses of the giant-mouthed eyeless beasts, there was still a pile of bones on the ground.
Grimm was not very interested in these things, but he felt that there might be something good hidden in these bones.
He drove the exoskeleton to check it and actually found something.
[ Acquired: Giant-mouthed eyeless beast eggs x 1! ]
[ Giant-mouthed eyeless beast eggs ]
[ Description: You can hatch a giant-mouthed eyeless beast, but the giant-mouthed eyeless beast is not suitable as a pet. The beast eggs can be eaten and have a minor toxicity! ]
"In that case, I'll sell them!"
Grimm smiled and hung all 15 beast eggs he had collected for sale in the trading center.
[ Giant-mouthed eyeless beast eggs x 1 exchanging for compact alloy x 4! ]
Grimm posted this 15 times. He doubled the price because the eggs could be hatched.
As for whether or not anyone would choose to hatch it, that was not something he needed to consider.
As soon as the items were put on the shelves, there was a deal.
Grimm had just opened the communication center and was about to promote it when he discovered that the huge-mouthed eyeless beast eggs had been sold out.
[ Oh sh*t? There are beast eggs? ]
[ Wait... are you guys a bit too quick handed? I only hesitated for a moment and they sold out? ]
[ Big brother, do you have any more? I need food! ]
[ This thing can hatch. It's a waste to eat it! ]
[ So... You rich people bought my food to hatch pets?]
…
Because many players failed to get the beast eggs, they started to quarrel in the communication center.
Grimm shook his head. These people really had the leisure to quarrel with each other in the communication center even though they were about to starve to death.
If they had such time, wouldn't it be better to build more equipment!
After closing the communication center, Grimm prepared to enter that dangerous gate.
He approached the gate and used his identity card.
[ Identity verification completed. The gate is opening! ]
At the same time the notification appeared, the twisted metal gate opened to the sides. However, because the gate was already damaged, it only opened a slit that was just large enough to enter.
Grimm approached carefully. After making sure that there was no movement inside, he drove the exoskeleton inside the gate.
Most of the lighting inside the gate was damaged. It was dim. Grimm looked down and was instantly frightened by the horrifying scene.
In front of him was a dead man wearing a spacesuit.
The body of the dead man had been compressed by something. Upon closer inspection, Grimm found that the thing that compressed the chest and abdomen of the dead man was actually the sole of a monster's foot.
"Oh my god, this monster's strength is really not small."
The spacesuit had an internal support frame. Coupled with the strength of human bones, it was understandable if the body had been deformed by a step. However, it was really hard to imagine that the body was straight up pancaked.
Grimm carefully passed by the corpse and continued to advance along a wide corridor. However, he had only taken a few steps when he suddenly heard the sound of heavy footsteps.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The footsteps were very close. Grimm looked around, but did not find any creatures or machinery.
"Could it be… below?"
Grimm listened carefully and found that the source of the sound was indeed under his feet.
Obviously, the space he was in had a tunnel leading to the below.
Grimm heaved a sigh of relief and continued to move forward. There were some electronic instruments in front. Grimm checked and found that the display screen of one of the instruments was still lit.
He stopped and tried to operate it. A metal data cable extended out from the exoskeleton.
"What the hell?"
"There's such a function?"
In the next moment, rows of information appeared.
[ Data screening... ]
[ Important document found! ]
Next, Grimm saw a very long message.
[ Test subject 0831 was failed to be destroyed. All personnel are to evacuate! Experimental subject 0831 has undergone a malignant mutation after injection. It has become uncontrollable. All personnel are to evacuate and destroy the base! ]
Obviously, this document had been simplified by the system of the disintegrator exoskeleton. Only the most important contents were left.
"Are there any other important documents?"
In the next moment, another long message appeared.
[ Test subject 0830 has achieved a major breakthrough! After the injection of test subject 0830, the strength of the test subject has been greatly increased. The strength of the test subject has been increased by 3 to 5 times. The research team is currently working test subject 0831 reagant, hoping to obtain a more powerful effect! ]
Grimm suddenly understood something.
According to the information revealed in the two documents, it was likely that the people of the base were researching an experimental reagent that could strengthen the body.
When the experimental reagent 0830 was completed, it had made great progress. However, the experimental reagent 0831 had caused a malignant mutation in the experimental subject.
This malignant mutation was so powerful that the base had decided to evacuate everyone!
Then... could the experimental subject be the monster in the lower level?
While Grimm was puzzled, another document was displayed.
[ Experimental subjects list of the 0831 experiment reagent: Louis, Harry... Remington. ]
This document did not seem to be very useful, but it was actually very important. What was important was not the identity of the test subjects, but the number of test subjects.
Grimm counted and found that there was a total of 10 names on the list. In other words, it was very likely that there were 10 malignant mutated test subjects still alive in this base!
"Looks like it's not going to be easy!"
Grimm still had a lot of bullets, but these bullets most likely could not cause harm to the test subjects. He only had five high explosive grenades as well. Even if one grenade could kill a malignant mutation test subject, he still did not have enough grenades!
"Let's see if there are any supplies nearby."
Grimm pulled out the data cable and continued to move forward.
Behind more than a dozen broken monitors, Grimm found a black hidden treasure chest.
[ Acquired: Hidden Treasure Chest x 1! ]
[ You have opened the Hidden Treasure Chest x 1! ]
[ Acquired: Machine Gun Bullets X 1000! ]
[ Acquired: Sterile syringe x 1! ]
"Sterile syringe?"
Grimm was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked something.
"That's right! The most important item in this ruin should be experiment reagent 0830!"
Experiment reagent 0830 had been proven to have no side effects. In other words, as long as he found experiment reagent 0830, Grimm could inject himself and increase his original strength by three to five times!
"Then I must find experiment reagent 0830!"
