Chapter 20: Rescue mission (8)

Mercury closed his eyes, and suddenly turned his face to somewhere on the upper right. A low chanting sound poured out from between his lips, like the distant call of a whale, rippling with the sound of the rising and falling of the sea, and waves outward. push away. Where the sound wave passed, the entire space suddenly stirred, and the scenery began to stir like water ripples, and even cracks appeared.

This incredible scene shocked everyone. Humans couldn't understand the unreal scene like a dream, and even the Krakens were a little stunned. The first to understand the meaning of mercury was ashes. He, who is good at spiritual healing, quickly joined in his singing along with the sound of mercury. The two voices that did not sound offensive at first glance were entangled, lingering between every molecule of the air like a deep undercurrent. The layers swelled out in waves. Tang Yi felt that the force that squeezed his chest was getting looser and looser. He lowered his head, but suddenly found that the tentacles that had been incomparably solid seemed to be a little... transparent? !

He suddenly connected with what Mercury had said before, "mental hallucination".

The shaking of the surrounding scene became more and more violent. Pieces of paper were scorched and then gradually vanished, and cracks appeared on the ground. The strangeness that Tang Yi had been aware of before suddenly became very clear. He heard a low mourning sound, which could not be heard unless he listened carefully.

He followed Mercury's line of sight to a certain place on the opposite bank near the top of the wall. It was blurry. He found that the light there was a little distorted, and it was a vague outline that was not easy to detect.

What it is

At this moment, the strength of the tentacles entangling him became looser and looser, and Tang Yi felt that the vague shadow was the initiator of everything. Although he didn't understand it, his intuition had saved him and his comrades many times in battle. He curled up his legs, reached for a dagger stuck in the shaft of his boot, which he had been keeping, and then suddenly pulled out his hand, and with both hands, he broke free, and then stepped on the meandering meandering The dagger made several quick and neat jumps and jumped directly onto the monster's huge head. Then he slammed his legs with energy, shouted loudly, and the bullets bounced toward the vague shadow.

With a puff, the dagger fell into something like a muscle, and black blood spurted out, soaking the armor on his body.

The thing let out a terrifying howl, and then Tang Yi felt a thick whip-like thing slammed into his stomach, and his whole body flew out, hitting the metal pipes heavily. At this time, those worm-like pipes have disappeared with the shattering of the illusion, and what is exposed is a really hard metal sewer pipe. Tang Yi was hit with all kinds of meat and eight elements, thinking that his spine was about to be broken, and fell to the ground with a bang. , there was a fishy sweet taste in the mouth.

"Tang Ya!!!" Nolan and Dr. Tan rushed towards him, and the rest of the Kraken continued to follow Mercury to send out waves of sonic attacks like a mountain of waves. Tang Yi tried his best to open his eyes and saw a gray thing quickly escape along the dome of the sewer at an incredible speed. He didn't have time to see what the thing looked like, and he could only see a long tail and a disgusting smell of carrion lingering in his nose.

The place where they were at this time was actually not that far from where they fought with the large wave of infected people before, and the bodies of some infected people were scattered on the ground not far away. In the river lay the corpse of a soldier of the fourteenth team and his siren, while another soldier of the fourteenth team and his siren were leaning against each other and fell against the wall. They were full of bullet holes. They were confused. caused by the bullets fired by the team members. They thought they were fighting worms, but in fact they all got into the bodies of their comrades.

Bob and Gao Yan felt remorse and sadness in their hearts, and silently gave a military salute in front of their dead comrades, with tears in their eyes.

The replacement speed of the members of the Kraken team has been getting faster and faster recently. It is clear that the main force of the rebels has been eliminated. Why is the mission more and more dangerous

Tan Mingyuan quickly took off Tang Yi's mask to prevent his blood from being sucked into the trachea, while Nolan and the others chased a few steps in the direction of the gray thing's escape, and gave up when they found that they couldn't catch up, and turned to see Tang Yi's condition . Tang Yi grinned and waved his hand, "I'm fine, I just hit my lower back."

Tan Mingyuan asked, "Can you move?"

"Of course I can. Don't worry, the spine is not broken." Tang Yi sat up with his body supported.

But Tan Mingyuan is still checking his mask, "You vomited blood, it seems that there is bleeding in the body. It needs to be dealt with immediately." After Dr. Tan finished speaking, he pushed Tang Yi down with a very imposing action and a very solemn expression. , so scared that Tang Yi thought for a moment that he saw the old director of the orphanage. Ash looked at Mercury nervously, who frowned, but didn't say anything after all.

Ashes breathed a sigh of relief, he had already prepared that if Mercury threw Tan Mingyuan out, he would catch Tan Mingyuan before he landed. It is also very hard to be a wife of a healing department these days, and the 100-meter sprint must be up to the standard.

I saw Tan Mingyuan put on sterile gloves and took out a can from the medical box, and then took out a silver-iron-colored ball the size of a jelly bean from the can, which was densely covered with thin folds. He put the ball in the palm of his hand, and it suddenly clucked and turned into a small silver-gray spider.

Tang Yi was petrified. He hated spiders the most in his life.

"What are you doing!"

"The nano spider robot can enter the body to repair wounds. It will decompose in the body after 12 hours." Tan Mingyuan winked at Tang Yi and glanced in the direction of Mercury.

Tang Yi immediately understood that Tang Ya was not afraid of spiders... However... he just wanted to scream up to the sky at this time - the concubine couldn't do it!

Tang Yi struggled to the death, "I'm really fine..."

"Come on, darling, open your mouth."

Tang Yi's lips trembled and he dared not open it.

The doctor couldn't, sighed, and said in a low voice, "Eating this is the same as eating the compressed biscuits I made by myself. You can choose the same."

Tang Yi looked at him for three seconds, closed his eyes tightly, and opened his mouth wide with the same expression as he was on the execution ground. The little spider quickly crawled into Tang Yi's mouth along the doctor's fingers. He only felt a tingling in his throat and hairs all over his body.

The benefits of this Kraken team are really not for nothing. Not only do they have to be taken advantage of by the Kraken, they have to endure dark food, and they even have to eat spiders...

Nolan held out a hand at him. Tang Yi rubbed his throat with one hand and stood up with the other holding Nolan's hand. The assassination of the invisible monster made the regular members of the Kraken team see Tang Yi's skills for the first time, and Bob and Gao Yan simply admired him a bit. Such a powerful explosive force, agile body and accurate movements, everything is completed in mid-air, even the team members rarely have such ability.

Nolan and Tan Mingyuan were equally surprised. Originally, I heard that Tang Yi had been in the army for so many years before joining the team, but he had been a little lieutenant for so many years. The level of agility is difficult even for the Kraken, whose jumping power is much stronger than that of humans.

Nolan asked Tang Yi, "Did you see him when you stabbed that thing just now?"

Tang Yi frowned and thought for a while, "It's vague, but it's very big, slightly bigger than a human, it seems to be something with a long tail."

"Those hallucinations were created by that thing?" Bob asked incredulously, "But isn't such a realistic hallucination that only a few sea monsters with powerful mental power can do? Even our team, currently only So four sirens can do it, right?"

"Not bad." Mercury suddenly said, and everyone's eyes were focused on him. He is one of the four Krakens who have the ability to create hallucinations for humans. "However, even biologically powerful Krakens are usually only able to confuse humans. The same kind, especially me, can usually recognize it. Strangely, this Once, even me, it was only later that I gradually felt that the environment was abnormal and unreal. And..." Mercury showed a look of disgust, "it has a disgusting smell."

Tang Yi looked at the darkness in the depths of the sewer where the monster left, "It will still appear. If anyone sees any abnormal situation again, they must report it immediately." The majesty of a commander. Both Bob and Gao Yan nodded obediently, as if they were servants.

Nolan looked at the table below with a solemn expression, "We have to act quickly, we have been delayed here for too long."

The group moved quickly. Tang Yi glared at Mercury who was following him, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll settle the account with you when I go back..."

Mercury glanced at him without any guilt, "I don't need you to attract attention, how can I take the opportunity to detect his location?". Tang Yi was puzzled, didn't he say that Mercury listened to Tang Ya's words? Why can't he feel it at all

They quickly found the shaft leading to the ground, grabbing the sticky iron ladder to climb the device. Nolan pushed the manhole cover open, and a pale sky light fell down, like a beam of holy light shooting into the bottomless hell. After running in the damp and dark sewers for a long time, I suddenly breathed in the outside air, which obviously still had a strong choking smell, but it was as fresh as it was centuries ago.

Tang Yi got out of the well, his eyes were hurt by the sunlight for a while, a white mist dissipated, and a scene of decay and depression was in front of him.

The block was empty, with burning aircraft lying on the side of the road, shards of glass and salutes left by people in haste while fleeing, and, of course, corpses lying unnoticed in the middle of the road. The burning aurora of super laser bombs rose from the sky in all directions, and the sound of artillery fire rumbled and shook the earth, in sharp contrast to the bleakness in front of him.

Everyone turned on the map navigation, and quickly ran through the mutilated buildings with the help of the building's cover. Unexpectedly, District 210 was destroyed like this in just two days. The windows of the house were shattered, the store door was wide open, and the goods were scattered all over the place, but no one could be seen. What about the original residents of District 210? Even if it is occupied by the rebels and the virus spreads, you should be able to see the civilians in the early stage of infection, right? Even if there are no civilians, should you see a few rebels

But there was none. The whole city seemed to be empty. They took off their masks one after another. When there are no enemies, there is really no need to wear such a stuffy thing. The wind blew dust and dust on his cheeks, and there was a slight pain in the void.

Just after noon, the scorching ultraviolet rays scorched the bare skin, and Tang Yi felt that they were like a group of desert travelers who strayed into a dead city, with strangeness everywhere. He was still walking with Gao Yan at the front, and he kept paying attention to Gao Yan's movements from the corner of his eyes. The young man did not have any symptoms of infection, his face was wrinkled from the sun, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"There are still two blocks. Let's speed up." Tang Yi said, and took the lead in trotting, and the others had to keep up with all their strength.

Turning around an old and plain black brick building, the building marked on the map appeared in sight. A square building with simple and straight lines, pure white, but without a single window. From a distance, it looks like an oversized plaster model standing in the middle of a low house, with a desert background of heavy clouds and black and yellow in the background, with a somewhat absurd and magnificent beauty.

The street in front of them was flat and straight, extending all the way to the foot of the institute. A group of people ran towards the target at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, and there was no obstacle along the way. Tang Yi felt strange in his heart, but time was running out, so he couldn't think so much. With so many sea monsters following, as long as they don't sound the alarm, it should be safe for a few miles.

At the foot of the white cube, there is the only "blemish" in the entire building - a transparent but extremely heavy door. Through the scarred bulletproof glass that had apparently been bombarded with laser cannons but had apparently not been shattered, the dim skylight illuminated the bright, clean white ground in the hall of the institute. Nolan called up the three-dimensional data map of the institute, which showed that there is only one exit of the entire building. Now the building has been locked. Unless you know the key to enter, people inside can't get out, and people outside can't get in.

"It seems that the rebels haven't been able to get in yet." Nolan checked the door and came to this conclusion.

Bob continued, "So there are still people alive inside?"

Tang Yi reached out to touch the crack on the door, but felt a hint of coolness through the glove. This building gave him a very bad feeling. It was too tight, giving him a very strong sense of oppression. I really don't know why a good research center is designed to look like a tomb.

There is no going out, no going back.

"Mercury, can you feel the situation inside?" Tang Yi turned his head and asked. However, he found that Mercury was half-hanging his head, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but he didn't hear his words.

"Hey!" Tang Yi was dissatisfied and tugged at his hair. Mercury was startled, raised one eyebrow and looked at Tang Yi, seemingly impatient.

"Don't be distracted when you perform the task!" Tang Yi wanted to scold, but when he said it, he couldn't help but lower his voice into a murmur.

In the other room, Nolan had entered a series of complex characters in the password panel beside the door according to the key in the data, and the door's locking system was temporarily unlocked for ten seconds. Taking advantage of these ten seconds, all the team members rushed in and passed through three gates in a row. Tang Yi followed behind Gao Yan and entered last, and just after stepping out of the last door with his heels, he heard the sound of locking again with three clicks.

In front of you is an empty hall, and the floor tiles are white and clean, reflecting the internal structure of the entire building like a mirror. The large third base logo is printed on the ground in the center, and there are many machine foregrounds standing silently on either side. Standing on the first floor and looking up, you will suddenly think that you have fallen into the bottom of a huge vortex. Layers of floors rose up in circles, and in the middle of the highest ceiling was a galaxy nebula composed of countless small lights. Except for the faint blue light from the nebula, the rest of the power supply seemed to be cut off. The whole building was full of shadows, and no human voice was heard.

Nolan ordered a group operation and quickly searched the building for survivors. Tang Yi and Mercury are in charge of the fourth to sixth floors.

The elevator was no longer in use, and Tang Yi quickly ran up the stairs to the fourth floor with a gun in hand. The corridor is empty, the rooms are next to each other, some doors are open, there are many complicated and sophisticated instruments inside, some are tightly locked. Tang Yi found a blood-stained white lab coat in a room that resembled a surgical chair. Broken test tubes were scattered on the ground. Two tablet computers were also lying on the ground. The screen was broken, and some paper on the table Data is also scattered.

Tang Yi squatted down and looked at the white coat, frowning. This place is obviously locked, why are there still traces of blood and fighting? Is it an accident

Tang Yi reached out and picked up a few paper documents to read, but there were some messy formula numbers and a lot of English words that he couldn't understand. Tang Yi looked up at it, "Mercury, come and collect these materials for me, maybe Dr. Tan can understand it."

But no response.

He turned around, "Mercury?"

Quicksilver stood at the door, stretched out his hand quietly, and closed the door.

Tang Yi was taken aback, "Why are you closing the door?"

There was something wrong with Mercury's expression, and those light-colored eyes stared straight at him, as if they could recognize all lies.

"Who are you."
