Dozens of purple-skinned monsters jumped down from the broken wall and slaughtered the soldiers who were on high alert below.
Through the telescope, we can see that bullets hitting the monster are like needles piercing leather, which can cause damage but is of no use.
The purple-skinned monster, however, can overturn a truck and tear apart a human body with a wave of its claws. Its speed and agility make it difficult to hit it with high-powered weapons.
If the purple-skinned monster's main target wasn't Alex, the military force here wouldn't have lasted more than ten minutes.
"This monster is somewhat similar to the Licker in Resident Evil." Ziyuan, who had snatched the telescope back from Lupin, said as he looked at the monsters fighting below.
"But reality is even more exaggerated than the movies!" Lupin held his forehead with a headache.
Look at the monster that ignores guns and kills indiscriminately. Compared with it, the Licker is just a weakling.
Ciyuan grinned after listening to this. When they received the commission before, they heard about zombies and thought that it would be easy to deal with those brainless guys with their abilities. The difficulty lies in dealing with the force behind the virus.
But now, looking at the situation, the difficulty seems to be just the opposite!
The monsters similar to the Lickers that appear now can fight against the army head-on. Who knows if there will be more terrifying biochemical monsters...
No, there must be. According to Colin Black, Alex Mercer is the evolution of this virus. Although he is at a disadvantage now, he is holding back more than a dozen monsters by himself. No wonder Colin Black specifically reminded them to pay attention...
"Hey! Lupin, those monsters are coming this way!"
While thinking about it, Ziyuan looked at the situation below that suddenly changed, his pupils contracted and he greeted.
He now only has a revolver in his hand, but he doesn't want to try whether his bullets can kill these monsters.
"Retreat first! Let's go, Goemon!"
Seeing the formation of Alex leading the way with a dozen monsters chasing behind him, Lupin made a decision instantly and called out to Goemon who was squinting his eyes.
Goemon listened without hesitation, turned around and ran after him.
If there were only one or two monsters, he would dare to try to kill them.
But with so many of them, he could only kill one at most and would be torn into countless pieces by the remaining monsters!
"Lupin! What are we going to do next?"
After running down the roof and into the stairs, Jigen asked as he ran.
It is conceivable that with so many monsters appearing in the urban area, it is impossible to cover it up. The originally calm situation will change drastically after this moment. The next choice will be extremely important.
"Go to Kintek Group." Lupin answered without thinking.
"Jintai Group?" Ciyuan was puzzled.
"I just checked." Lupin explained: "The building where the monsters are kept is called the Genetic Engineering Research Base, which is a subsidiary of the Jintai Group."
"According to what the wizard said before, the external force that is involved with Blackwatch should be this pharmaceutical group. Now that there is such a big mess here, if we go too late, we will definitely not find anything."
"I see." Ci Yuan nodded in understanding, but then he said with a headache: "I don't know if there are any headquarters that also keep these monsters."
"Someone will solve it for us." Lupin smiled.
"Someone? Who..."
boom!
As he was speaking, a loud bang sounded beside his ears.
The corridor walls, which were tens of centimeters thick, turned into powerful gravel in an instant, leaving holes in the stairs.
Along with the rubble came a young man with sickly pale skin, wearing a hood and with a gloomy face.
Lupin and the other two, who sensed the danger before the wall exploded and used tactics to dodge it, looked at Alex who turned over and seemed to be uninjured, with twitching faces.
They wanted to contact Alex to confirm some things.
But, I definitely don't want to do it at this time.
Roar!
A heart-shaking roar came out from the hole. The next moment, a purple-skinned, hairless, ferocious head suddenly popped out of the hole and stared at Alex.
Alex glanced at Lupin and the other two, jumped up, and as the marble stairs under his feet collapsed, he instantly broke through the wall on the other side and fled into the distance.
The purple-skinned monster at the hole in the wall propped itself up on the walls on both sides with its claws and followed closely behind.
Afterwards, more monsters chased after them through the hole.
Just as Lupin and his two companions were silent and prepared to wait until the monsters left before taking action, a purple-skinned monster looked at Lupin and waved its claws, ready to kill the little bug before chasing its target.
Peng!
A gunshot rang out.
Noticing that the monster's expression was wrong, Ziyuan immediately fired a shot, attracting the monster's attention.
Lupin also rolled over to avoid it, ran to the other side in a few steps, and joined Jigen Goemon.
"This monster seems to have taken a fancy to you, Lupin!"
Looking at the disheveled Lupin, Jigen teased.
"Who made me so charming?" Lupin joked to himself without caring, looking at the monster that was looking at him with that ugly head, and asked behind him: "Are you sure, Goemon?"
Pistol bullets are almost useless against this monster, but it doesn't matter, they still have Goemon.
Of course, if Goemon also says no, then they can only find a way to run away.
"Can!"
With a decisive answer, Goemon stepped forward with the Zantetsu sword in hand, his face calm, as if the person in front of him was not a monster that could tear iron like mud and kill people like crazy, but a target that he could chop at will.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Goemon!"
Lupin and Jigen retreated, leaving the entire venue to Goemon.
At this moment, the atmosphere at the scene was heavy. The monster sharpened its claws and charged forward fiercely, waving its unmatched claws and grabbing towards Goemon's head with a fierce gust of wind.
Goemon's expression remained unchanged until the moment the sharp claws were only three inches away from his head. Then his eyes suddenly opened wide, and the sword in his hand suddenly came out of its sheath as he took a step forward. With a loud shout of "Aha" and a flash of sword light like water, the monster's momentum stopped, and a line of blood appeared in the middle of its head, which was suddenly split into two halves, with blood splattering everywhere.
Goemon let out a breath and stood up, sheathing his sword like a master, then walked back to Lupin and Jigen with a complacent look on his face.
"Well done! Goemon!" praised Jigen.
Lupin walked around Goemon, looking amazed.
Goemon felt uncomfortable, his eyes twitched, and he looked at Lupin and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
"No." Lupin shook his head and said sincerely, "I just thought you would have looked more handsome if you had called out a more domineering name when you were drawing your sword."
"Really...really?" The sultry Goemon's eyes lit up.
Lupin and Jigen looked at each other, but couldn't hold back their laughter and burst into laughter.
Thanks to the Succubus Queen Jezebeth for the 100-point reward!
