"Haah... haah... this... this is the fourth research room... I..." A thin, middle-aged man with a bald head appeared in front of the camera panting, "Haah... the date... after that happened. , at least seventy-two hours have passed... so... it should be October 17th, I am... haha... researcher Abraham of evolution, number bd40281na, listen... whoever found this tape, or saw it This video... Haah... we... we're done!"
His horrified expression was hard to conceal. In his eyes, there was only the despair before his death: "If you are a team of the empire, any team... As long as the communication still works, you must quickly find a way to contact the outside world. You must Launch a nuclear strike on this place!
Haha... I'm serious! If you are still in the city, you will never escape! Haaah... But at least you can save others... Haaah... You... can save others from the same fate as you... So... Hurry! nuclear weapon! be quick! "
Bang bang bang... something is hitting the wall out of frame.
Abraham turned away with almost a facial twitch, was forced to interrupt the video recording, and left the computer console.
Grooves were punched into the metal wall, as if there was an angry giant dinosaur pushing its horns against the wall outside.
Abraham's face was covered with sweat. While controlling his rapid breathing, he staggered to the wall on the other side, where there was also a closed electronic door.
The power supply in the institute has nothing to do with the city's power supply system, so it has never been interrupted. However, some areas were damaged for various reasons, and the compressors of the power system and refrigeration system were unable to operate normally.
The operating room where Abraham was currently located naturally had power, but the light in the room was red. Since being attacked by guerrillas a few days ago, the alarm system has gone off. Several basic facilities failed... From then on, the lights in every room in the entire underground research institute turned from white to red. In order to let everyone in the institute know the situation in the event of an attack or accident, this method of changing the color of the lights was devised when building the defense system. In fact, if you think about it carefully, this kind of design is really smart. It would be unnecessary to just sound the alarm... The red light must flash. The alarm was raised, and it was like the headquarters of the scientific task force, but in the end, we really encountered a monster...
"Damn... what's behind this door..." Abraham said to himself as he wandered around the institute for the past few days. He has developed the habit of talking to himself in a low voice, which can calm him down. "This fourth research room is in Area L... Is the door opposite this direction the No. 1 operating room..."
The sound of the wall behind him hitting the wall became more and more urgent. The more time-critical and stressful the situation, the easier it is for people to make mistakes. Abraham pressed the operating panel of the electronic door several times, but it always prompted him that the password was incorrect.
"Asshole! Hurry up! This damn computer!!" After Abraham entered the wrong password again, he slammed the door several times angrily, but he quickly calmed down. Lose again.
These electronic doors originally had functions such as pupil scanning, fingerprint scanning, etc., but now. Since the connection between computers in most areas and the central computer has been cut off, the database cannot be connected. The only way to open the door is through a basic password command, which is a long string of numbers and is very troublesome to enter.
"Quick, quick, quick..." Abraham pressed the button in his hand and kept mumbling. Finally, the password was correct, the door was opened, and a corridor appeared in front of him. At this time, behind him, another room in the room appeared. The door on one side was knocked open.
The first person who came into the room was "half a man". He was normal from the chest up, and even had a weird smile on his face. It might have been caused by a broken nerve. Below the chest, his intestines were exposed, which was strange. What's wrong is that humans can't have so many, so long intestines...
That half of the person is like a rag doll on the palm of the hand, and the intestines in his abdominal cavity are like the exposed forearms of the operator. Many people have seen half-human, half-snake figures in movies, but half-human, half-intestine figures are still rare.
Abraham couldn't imagine what was connected to the end of this guy's intestines. He didn't have time to look at the other person. He just ducked to the other side of the door and pressed the closing button frantically.
The half of the human body growing on the "bundle" of intestines rushed towards the closing electronic door without hesitation. Pushed by the intestines behind him, he was as fast as a scurrying giant anaconda.
Fortunately, the electronic door closed in time, and the halfling's head stuck out from the door. His neck was crushed on the spot, and a head rolled down at Abraham's feet.
Under the red light, the bloody head was not conspicuous, but it was still on the ground. Abraham looked carefully and found that the skull of this guy's forehead was exposed, and the skin on his forehead had long been rotted on both sides. It turned out that he had been there just now. Banging your head against the wall…
Abraham quickly understood that from a human perspective, this might be the head, but from a monster perspective, maybe it was just the big toe of the left foot.
He bent down and carefully touched the head a few times with his gloved hand. After confirming that it was completely motionless, Abraham actually picked up the head and held it. He held the hair on one side of his temple and moved forward.
"What other things have not been tried..." He started talking to himself again: "I have tried the reaction under anaerobic conditions in the Ninth Research Laboratory, and experimented with the radioactive effects in a short period of time in the abandoned elevator. We tried several corrosive reagents in the Seventh Laboratory... The front is... yes... it's the operating room, we have to see what we can find... "
Abraham muttered to himself and walked forward. Compared with the people in the city, this guy is much tougher. His ability to survive in the underground research institute depends not only on a relatively clear mind, but also on genetic modification. Credit, and there must be a certain amount of luck. For example, if he entered the wrong password one more time just now, he might be dead. Of course, for an ordinary person, staying in this hellish place for a few days would make him crazy even if he didn't die.
… …
At the same time, somewhere in the city.
"We don't need all of us to go down. I can just stay here and keep an eye on the situation." Zuo Dao's face was full of reluctance.
At this moment, except Gambling Snake and Jeff, several others have arrived at a certain entrance of the research institute.
The tailor came here with Xue Xiao, Feng Xuan and Zuo Dao. He himself had the idea of risking his life and prepared to go down with them.
"There are only monsters around here. What's the point of looking out?" said the blood owl: "At least there is not a single living person within a radius of three kilometers. Sure enough, the number of monsters is relatively dense above this research institute."
"Hey! Wouldn't it be denser if we go down there?" Zuo Dao replied.
The tailor continued: "If nothing else, about one-third of the space of this research institute should have been filled by the monster. Of course, the research institute is very large, and it is not built on the same plane. The structure, which has different depths, is connected by many corridors, and the overall shape is like an anthill, some of which are very long and the rooms are arranged far apart."
"Huh..." Fengxuan blew out smoke rings. His reasoning ability was not bad, and he immediately thought of the reason. "If something unexpected happens in a certain space, it will take more time for the impact to spread to other places."
The tailor nodded: "Yes, that's it. In addition... I think the source of the pollution, which is the core of the monster, is undoubtedly the dangerous goods warehouse located at the deepest level. If you accidentally get separated later, you just need to keep moving downwards." ”
Zuo Dao thought to himself: Well... As long as I find a chance to get separated from you, and then I can escape secretly up alone, right...
The blood owl's eyes wandered to Zuo Dao's face for some reason: "If you come back to the ground before me, I will take out your kidneys and brew them into wine."
Zuo Dao instinctively touched his waist with one hand: "I don't dare... I don't dare..."
The tailor was about to lift up the building debris blocking the entrance when Fengxuan suddenly said: "Wait... did you see that?"
The three of them followed his gaze, and their eyes fell on the end of a street in the distance. Almost at the same time as Fengxuan spoke, a huge humanoid black shadow walked out from there.
"Hey... giant?" As Zuo Dao spoke, the guy who was nearly five meters tall showed his true appearance in Lushan.
"Huh..." Fengxuan was under great pressure and could only take a deep breath on his cigar: "Is this a horror movie?"
The image of the "giant" was exactly the same as the mannequin in the school's biology classroom. The whole body was made of red muscles and tendons and had no skin. The difference was that it was ridiculously large.
"You must have swallowed at least five people to become this son-in-law, right?" Zuo Dao continued to speak, his cautious nature not changing, and a sword energy was released at this moment without any warning.
"The whole body is made of muscle tissue, and it has actually returned to a 'human form'. I think it swallowed at least thirty people..." When the blood owl spoke, the giant's arm actually moved, despite its huge body. , the movement did not affect the speed of movement and reaction at all. Zuo Dao's divine sword energy was almost pure energy, but it was deflected by this guy with his hand.
"Perhaps it is a mutant creature infected by capable people. It gradually became stronger after eating many people." Fengxi took a step forward with a wry smile on his face: "It seems that because of its deterrent power, I didn't dare to The low-level creatures that were close to us also came around... "
The originally empty streets around the four people, the dark corners, and the windows of the buildings... hundreds of mutant creatures poured out at this time, and the black mass slowly gathered. (..)
