Abraham sat on the floor next to the operating table. The red light gave him a headache, and a wave of vomiting surged up from his stomach, but he suppressed it.
The dissection of the collected human head may make ordinary people feel uncomfortable, but as a researcher of evolution, this scene is nothing at all, so at this moment, he knew very well that this kind of vomiting was not caused by mental discomfort. It's about physical changes.
"There shouldn't be a fever..." Abraham covered his forehead and began to mutter to himself again. He took a mirror and looked at his eyes, but because the surroundings were red, it was difficult for him to see whether his pupils were congested.
"Damn alarm system." Although he cursed like this, Abraham also knew that without this red light, he would have been torn to pieces in the darkness.
Bang bang bang…
The sound of banging on the wall sounded again. In the days after the accident, this sound was like a death bell, shaking Abraham's already overwhelmed nerves from time to time. Every two or three hours at most, something would try to invade Abraham's place. He couldn't stay in a room for a long time and had to keep moving. This is the center of the mutated creature's lair. The escape routes are blocked, and the space for movement and maneuvering is gradually being destroyed. Food and water are even more extravagant. In the center of pollution, even if you don't eat anything, you can have it. Risk of infection.
Abraham had no intention of escaping alive. It was only the instinctive human will to survive that kept him alive until now. But even if a person is transformed, his body is almost at its limit, and the mental burden of staying here for a long time can easily push a person to collapse.
Maybe. It's time to give up, I'm dead anyway. How are people outside, and whether humanity will perish, and what does that have to do with me? Why should I work so hard to do these meaningless things to myself? Looking for monsters' weaknesses, recording images that may never be seen, am I...am I really made to be a hero
Abraham was indeed desperate. The results of the tests in the past few days all proved one thing, that is, the monster at the core of the pollution. There is no weakness at all. At least from a scientific level, with his ability, he was unable to analyze an effective method to eliminate monsters and remove pollution sources. There were only two simplest and crudest methods he could think of, either using nuclear weapons or relying on ability users to evaporate the entire area. Not even the dregs are left behind.
bang bang…
The sound of hitting the metal wall outside suddenly became softer. It suddenly disappeared after a few seconds.
Abraham couldn't help but wonder, was there something wrong with his mind? Are you hallucinating
This is the first time he has encountered this situation in a few days. Will the monster give up attacking after discovering the target? How can this be
The next second, Abraham was almost frightened and suffered a myocardial infarction. To put it simply, he almost fainted.
In a bad environment that had just returned to peace. Suddenly there was another loud noise, and the electronic door made of alloy was completely blasted through, leaving a large hole in the middle.
"I've said it many times... I can open this kind of door." The tailor complained behind the blood owl.
"I've said it many times, it's too confusing for you to enter the password." The blood owl took a step forward and entered the operating room through the door he punched through.
people? Is it a person talking
Abraham couldn't believe what he heard. He always talked to himself when he was alone, but now he suddenly didn't dare to speak out. He even suspected that he was already dead. And this place is hell, everything is an illusion created to torture him.
"Open all the doors. You may be attacked from behind at any time." The tailor added.
"What are you afraid of after the left path is cut off? He will die first if he wants to die." The blood owl replied matter-of-factly.
"He is behind, which is more frightening than me cutting off the back myself." The tailor said, "Maybe he will throw me out as a shield in a desperate situation."
Zuo Dao shouted: "You are so impudent, you are just a prisoner, and you are my defeated general, Dao Master, how dare you keep talking indiscriminately?"
The blood owl refused to talk nonsense with these two people. He walked straight to the operating table and said to the man huddled on the floor on the other side of the table: "If you want to stay here and wait to die, I have no objection, but you must first Tell us what you know.”
Abraham turned his head dullly and met the blood owl's gaze: "You... are you really human?"
The blood owl didn't answer. He grabbed Abraham's collar with one hand, picked him up, and slapped him with the other hand.
"Hey! What are you doing!" After all, he is also his colleague. As the saying goes, a scholar cannot be killed but cannot be humiliated. The tailor stepped forward and said, "I have something to say."
"I'm just keeping his mind clear." The blood owl let go of his hand.
"Are you...Abraham?" The tailor looked him over and remembered that he had met this man several times in the past, so he tried to call him by his name.
"Yes! Yes! Sir!" Abraham saw a man wearing the uniform of a senior member of evolution, and his eyes instantly lit up, as if he saw the hope of survival. "Researcher Abraham, number bd40281na, reports to you!"
"Stop sticking to red tape and look at the current situation clearly." The tailor replied: "First tell me the information you know."
Abraham responded and gave a rough overview of his experience of hiding in the institute these past few days. During this period, the blood owl quietly left the operating room once and came back about a minute later. Unknown Why, in this minute, he was splashed with unknown liquid...
"You have done a good job. If you can get out alive, I will definitely recommend you to your superiors and reward you." The tailor said after listening.
"It was a miscalculation." After listening to Abraham's narration, the blood owl said from the sidelines: "There is no point in taking a special detour to find this person. If I had known that he would not be able to provide any useful information, I should have ignored him and headed straight down. "
"You're already here, it didn't take too long anyway." Zuo Dao continued: "Now let's get on with it." He was a tactful person and knew that the blood owl's words would definitely arouse some thoughts from the other two people, so he first Once the conversation is over, the topic will be dismissed.
In fact, after entering the underground research institute, he used his ability to detect where Abraham was. It was the Blood Owl himself, and he also took the initiative to find this survivor. At the time, it seemed that this was undoubtedly the right decision. Since this guy can survive until now, then There must be something special about him, or he must have some information about mutated monsters. Unexpectedly, what he found in the end was just a researcher who was pretty lucky. The information Abraham mentioned could only be said to support some previous inferences and did not really help the matter.
"I'm about to lose my patience." The blood owl moved his wrist: "There is no point in fighting this kind of monster. If it weren't for the 'target person', I would have suggested evacuating the city and then throwing a few nuclear bombs here."
"The reverse cross has nuclear weapons?" The tailor couldn't turn a deaf ear to the blood owl's words.
"It's none of your business." Zuo Dao added this sentence without hesitation before the blood owl opened his mouth. It was neither an admission nor a denial. It was completely cunning.
The blood owl sneered, glanced at Zuo Dao, and walked out: "You guys from evolution, you only need to be responsible for pointing the way. I will still be responsible for opening the door. I hope to kill the monster and leave this ruin within three hours. Place, if possible, to eat a 100% contamination-free cheeseburger in ten hours.”
The other three followed the blood owl and filed out of the destroyed gate. Although Abraham was following the tailor, he still had some thoughts in his mind. He said to the tailor: "Sir? You are trying to escape now." go?"
"Escape?" The tailor looked back at him: "We came in from outside."
"What?" Abraham was simply incredulous. Someone else would come in and seek death? Suddenly, he thought of another very important thing: "Sir? Are these two rebels from the Cross Cross? Wait... That tall guy seems to be the Blood Owl!"
"It's a long story. In short, we will temporarily cooperate with their actions and solve the mess below. This is the top priority." The tailor replied: "You should also know that at this stage, the monster below is common to all mankind. enemy."
"I kindly remind you that if you want to escape to the ground, we won't stop you. Of course, we don't have time to escort you back to the ground. And even if you follow the route we came in and successfully return to the ground, there It may not be much safer than underground." Zuo Dao is very good at grasping the psychological changes of vulnerable groups, so he can use sharp analysis to pour cold water on the opponent.
While they were talking, they were passing through the corridor outside. While hearing the bad news that he could not leave the institute and would go further underground, Abraham witnessed the blood owl's masterpiece just now.
The ground was covered with pieces of flesh and body fluids, almost like a muddy ground after a rain. Just looking at these stumps and residual juices, one can imagine how brutal the battle that took place here was, at least for the monsters. awful…
Abraham speculated that the first few bangs heard against the door were indeed from the monster, but that it was dispatched within seconds. While he was narrating, the blood owl casually walked out of the operating room and walked around the corridor. It was also because he noticed the monster approaching that he used that minute to kill another one quietly. Monster, or at least took out one of the giant tentacles.
All these things happened in a place separated by a wall from the operating room, and Abraham was not even aware of the signs of fighting. Although there was some data on the strength of those ability users in the reverse cross, when the other party really Only when it appeared in front of him could Abraham truly feel that kind of aura. What seemed to him to be a desperate situation was, in the eyes of the top experts, just a place where he could come and go with ease. Abraham had only seen similar ease and calmness and cruelty unintentionally revealed in the director. shadow.
"Are you here again?" The blood owl suddenly stopped and looked at the shadow at the end of the red corridor ahead: "It seems that it has attracted its attention, and the frequency of attacking us is increasing." (..)
