Steel Steam and Flame

Chapter 55: Probe

When they were about to leave the port area, many people were suddenly startled by the sound of explosions behind them, looking towards the direction where the steam plume was rising. They also did not hesitate for half a minute like Kara. Sweeping at a speed of more than 100 meters, the dull and thunderous explosion can be faintly heard in all areas around a radius of about seven kilometers.

   Although the exact sound cannot be heard further away, the milky white steam pillar is like a pure white cloud, where it is rising like a newborn sun. Even if there is no dazzling sunlight to show its existence, as long as you turn your head slightly, you can be completely attracted to it.

   A group of people have their own thoughts, although curiosity occupies a large 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 are flying in the air. Things don't need to be fermented. In just a few minutes after the explosion, everyone knew what was happening in the port.

   Kara is about six kilometers away from there, and the road past is not straight. When I arrived on the top of a building two to three hundred meters away from the incident site, the time had just passed a few minutes, but there were already thirty or forty people standing beside the large pit in front of him that was tens of meters in diameter. Up. The ceremonial cars of different colors were parked by them on the roads on both sides. People of all colors stood in a group, planning to go down to check the specific situation.

But the steam permeating there has not completely dissipated. It still looms like a white mist. The air also contains moist water vapor. Now there is only a faint shadow of the steam plume standing in the sky. More people rushed over.

   The pothole was huge, and the explosion center was just under the solid cement stone road. Now the road has been completely lifted up, and the black soil has been brought up to a height of tens of meters by the impact force, like the gushing spring water splashing in the surrounding area of ​​100 meters, and the solid reinforced concrete structure of the road has also been completely destroyed. clean. The surrounding gray-white pavement also cracked densely in the vibration, and at the edge of the big hole, the reinforcing steel bars were also exposed, which was ferocious and showed the power of the explosion.

On the side is a barren site, inside it is the old site that has stopped construction, and on the other side is a crude gray warehouse, its iron door was blown up, and the top of the warehouse is covered with black. mud. A group of heavily armed men rushed out from the inside, the men of the arms smuggler Brewer.

  Carla then remembered the sign on the map in his mind. This is his site.

What exactly happened? This is the doubt of all those who rushed over.

  Carla put the leather box next to her. She did not assemble her own sniper rifle, but took out the optical anchor sight to expand her vision. No matter how good his eyesight is, two to three hundred meters away, he can only see a blur.

   In the scope, the pothole is like a broken bowl, the bottom is emptied, there should be the center of the explosion. At the edge is a pile of broken black steam machines, most of which are buried in the black mud. Most of the body is buried in the black mud. At a distance of a few meters, one can see a mutilated corpse. They are covered with mud. The bullet holes are faintly visible. Apparently, they were all killed with guns before the explosion.

   And the cause of the explosion is also very clear. There is no smell of gunpowder smoke around, only a bit of rotten smell of silt, and the steam storage tank acts as the gunpowder.

   But what caused the extremely safe steam tank to explode?

   Irregular operations by craftsmen? However, no matter how simple the weapon workshop is, there should be a basic alarm device. It's a pity that they didn't know that these facilities were destroyed by flames very early.

   Apart from irregular operations, what are the reasons? They counted the pitiful knowledge of various steam machinery in their heads. It is obviously impossible for the cooling liquid to enter the steam system, but besides this possibility, what reasonable explanation is there?

   The bullet broke the steam can? Ordinary bullets are definitely not painful or itchy, and at most a few white marks are wiped out. The platinum bullet can make a little dent on it, but the huge power of the platinum bullet is only so in front of it. If you want to destroy a complete high-end metal can, in addition to transporting it to a high-level steam factory to cut it with professional tools, They can't think of another way.

   And even if it is man-made sabotage, the person who is hurt first must be the saboteur. They really can't think of the cause of the explosion.

   The white mist completely dissipated in the last few tens of seconds. They saw broken parts, which were the conveyor track, central shaft, gears, and the iron cover of the machine base. After the flames burned and turned black, they all became scrap iron, now squeezed on the edge.

   The people who came out of the warehouse looked a little ugly when they saw the scene in front of them. This is their own territory, but now they are under their noses, their weapons workshop has been bombed into the sky, not to mention the death of the people in it, and all the manufacturing machines they bought have become scrap iron. And the most important point is that they didn't know this from beginning to end. If it weren't for the explosion site right in front of their warehouse, and their own iron door was also destroyed, they might still be in the warehouse now that they should sleep, drink, and drink.

   There are no signs of life in the crater of the explosion. At least in their eyes, there are all mutilated human bodies, and complete corpses are rare. And maybe no ordinary people can survive such a powerful explosion~www.ltnovel.com~ A group of people stood around the big pit, looking at the black mud that was turned over in front of them, and the same standing around. The people watching looked at each other, and everyone saw the confusion and helplessness on their faces.

   What happened here?

   They looked at Brewer's subordinates in the direction of the warehouse. They blushed, and the sights from everywhere were fierce. They were looking for explanation. But they are also pitfalls of the people who don't know the truth.

   Someone began to walk carefully down the pit step by step. The surrounding soil was a bit moist and soft, with deep and shallow footprints, one foot connected to one foot. The person above watched silently, cold sweat oozes from the back of the forehead of the person who went down, and the soft corpse could be stepped on from time to time in the mud under his feet. The surroundings were also surprisingly silent. He could clearly hear his breathing and heartbeat. Has lost the usual rules. The air below was more humid, and at this 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 felt that he was a little ill-considered when he succeeded. But the people above all looked at themselves, and it was a bit embarrassing to go up now. 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 blow the opponent's head with a few shots.

   can't go up, his face is betting on it, he thought.

   The soil in front of him moved suddenly, his heart tightened, and his breathing became short. He hurried to draw his gun, his hands trembling.

Then a hand in clothes of unknown color stretched out abruptly, with a **** appearance~www.ltnovel.com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read. The latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at~www.mtlnovel. com~ mobile phone users please go to read.
