Chapter 105: Necessity (For 200 Likes)
Su Xiao walked at the front of the group with a clipboard in his hands. The tablet showed Kisho Arima's current location, which was provided by the Ghoul Control Headquarters.
Although they could see Kisho Arima's location, the signal was getting increasingly poor, meaning that information about Kisho Arima's location might just stop coming in.
Right now, Kisho Arima was in the depths of the 24th district, at least a few hours away from Su Xiao's group's current location.
The dark red meat walls pressed down on the new investigators, and the faint bloody smell, along with the smell of rot, irritated them.
Su Xiao, on the other hand, was very calm. Right now, the first thing they needed to do was find Kisho Arima, and as for the next step, Matsuri Washu didn't mention it. He only asked him to find Kisho Arima and follow his orders.
Of course, he wouldn't follow all of Kisho Arima's orders. It will act according to the situation.
The journey was fairly smooth. They quickly penetrated the deep layer of the 24th district, and it took only forty minutes, because they were directed by Akira Mado.
*Boom!*
A loud noise suddenly came from the passageway in front. Su Xiao stiffened, but then relaxed. The sound came from a place that was far away from them.
After entering the deeper area of the 24th district, Su Xiao clearly saw that everything was different from what he had seen before.
Along the way, they often encountered bodies and recently dried blood, as well as small groups of ghouls.
Su Xiao didn't provoke these ghouls because they didn't come here to fight this time.
When these ghouls saw Su Xiao, they would immediately run away without even thinking about fighting.
After facing the four groups, Juzo Suzuya asked — " Why don't we kill these ghouls?
— It's a waste of time, " Su Xiao replied and continued walking forward.
They soon entered an even deeper layer of the 24th district, but it took them two hours to do so.
*Tsok-tsok...*
Loud footsteps sounded from the front. They were already used to this situation, because after reaching this layer of the 24th district, they had already encountered groups of ghouls of ten or more heads more than once.
But this time wasn't like all the others. After Su Xiao saw the ghouls appear, a sword appeared in his hands.
These ghouls wore grass skirts, and some of them wore tooth necklaces around their necks. The smallest part of them had tattoos.
They were primitive ghouls!
Sure enough, after these forty primitive ghouls saw Su Xiao's group, they immediately rushed over.
*Ar-r-r-r!*
They took the lead and started closing the distance very quickly...
— Get ready for battle! Su Xiao and Juzo Suzuya were in the front, and the investigators behind them were clearly shocked. They had never seen such ghouls before.
— Captain, what is this?" Are they ghouls? The investigator asked and swallowed, but Su Xiao ignored him and rushed forward with his sword.
Juzo Suzuya and Su Xiao together quickly rushed towards these primitive ghouls.
Juzo Suzuya didn't hesitate and immediately started killing those ghouls.
Su Xiao silently started slashing at these ghouls with his sword...
The other investigators quickly rushed forward with their kuinke when they realized that they were indeed ghouls.
The new investigators had already realized just how terrifying these primitive ghouls were. Their kuinke below ' S ' level couldn't deal lethal damage to these primitive ghouls.
Although these primitive ghouls couldn't use kagune, their bones and flesh were unusually strong, and their bodies were full of strength.
The investigator holding a long whip attacked the primeval ghoul's back, but only a small scar appeared on the primeval ghoul's body due to this attack.
After that, the primal ghoul screamed and turned its head. His mouth, full of terrible-looking teeth, moved closer to the investigator's flesh...
— Ah-ah-ah! A-A-A-A-A-A-A-ARGH! the investigator let out a meaningless scream, and the primal ghoul happily bit its defenseless victim in the neck.
A large piece of flesh was torn from the investigator's body, but he quickly recovered and covered his neck with his hands, but blood was still flowing out of the wound very quickly.
Ten seconds later, the reinforcements took their first losses.
Shouts, clangs, shouts... everything came together in a very spacious passage.
The passage was at least 8 or 9 meters wide. Su Xiao couldn't stop the primitive ghouls alone. Moreover, he had come here for a mission and had no intention of being someone's babysitter.
The life and death of these investigators depended on their personal abilities. They came here to complete a mission, not to gain experience. Their lives had nothing to do with Su Xiao. He didn't care if these investigators survived or not.
Twenty minutes later, the battle came to an end, more than forty primal ghouls were killed, but ten members of the reinforcement group died. Most of the remaining people were lightly wounded, but one of the survivors was very badly injured.
The man, who was seriously injured, was lying on the ground. One of his arms and most of his intestines were torn out.
— Captain, what do we do? Iwao Kuroiwa stood next to Su Xiao with a very unpleasant expression on his face.
Su Xiao took out two syringes and walked over to the man. In their current situation, such serious injuries meant that this man would most likely die.
But he was quite strong, and even though he couldn't compare to the strongest investigators from the reinforcement group, he wasn't bad at all.
— Captain, I'm going to die?
Su Xiao squatted down and looked at the senior investigator.
— What is your name?
— I... my name is Murayama.
Murayama was short but stocky. He was injured because he decided to cover for another investigator.
If it had been a different mission, Murayama might have had a chance of survival, but right now they were in the most "forbidden zone for humans". They just won't be able to get Murayama back in time.
— It's morphine?
Su Xiao picked up the syringe and looked at Murayama.
Murayama was pale, and everyone else around him was silent. Akira Mado, who was leaning against the meat wall, turned her head away — she couldn't bear to watch this scene.
— Enter, Captain, I'm in shock.
Su Xiao probed the man's muscles and injected it directly into the vein.
Part of Murayama's intestines had been ripped out, so this injection wouldn't be able to ease his pain in any way.
After the injection, Murayama sighed and relaxed, and the muscles in his face stopped twitching.
— Can you think? Su Xiao looked at Murayama, and Murayama nodded.
— Do you have any last words?
Murayama smiled bitterly and shook his head.
— I wrote them in advance, but my whole family was killed by ghouls. No one will see them.
Su Xiao picked up the second syringe.
— Captain, what is this?" Murayama asked in a slightly frightened tone.
— Cyanide, after the injection, you will fall asleep, your injuries are too serious, and we will not have time to bring you back, " after these words, Su Xiao fell silent and waited for Murayama's answer.
— I don't want to die, I don't want to die! — Murayama suddenly started to get excited.
It was only natural, after all, no one wanted to die.
— You're an investigator. Being an investigator isn't easy, but it was your choice.
Murayama's body suddenly froze, and his narrow pupils gradually widened.
— That's right, Captain, I'm an investigator, and that's my duty. I killed thirty-one ghouls and even saved nine people from certain death.
Murayama's lips trembled.
Cyanide was injected into Murayama's body, and after a minute, Murayama's eyelids became heavy.
Cyanide was commonly used for euthanasia. After applying it, a person fell asleep, after which his heart stopped, and he died in his sleep.
Su Xiao led the group further. The deep part of the 24th district was violent.
Morphine and cyanide were mandatory items for an investigator after he became part of group zero. Su Xiao, Yuna, and Kisho Arima, as members of group zero, always had these "medicines" with them, and this time Su Xiao was given a lot of this "medicine".».
Murayama's death didn't stir any emotions in Su Xiao.
The strong survived, the weak died — that was the law of any world.
